Chapter 1006 - 1006 A True Great Emperor Figure
Far away at the Grand Sacrificial Blood Ground in the borderlands, Jun Xiaoyao had no idea what moves were being made on the immortal domain's side.
At this moment, he looked at Su Hongyi, who had fully awakened the heavenly mandate of the Six World-Ending Kings, and a smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
He had really struck it rich this time.
With just a single drop of chaos blood, he had gained a world-ending sovereign of boundless potential as a servant.
And one who would obey his commands absolutely.
This deal was truly a steal.
But then again, Jun Xiaoyao had always had exceptional vision.
Anyone else would never have spotted this gold buried in the sand.
Of course, Jun Xiaoyao could see Su Hongyi's loyalty clearly.
As long as she didn't betray him,
Jun Xiaoyao didn't mind treating her sincerely and accepting her completely as one of his own.
"What exactly is the secret of the Black Heaven Clan?" Jun Xiaoyao asked.
Although he had formed a rough guess from the information on the black stone stele, it was obviously impossible for his speculation to cover every detail.
Su Hongyi held nothing back and transmitted her thoughts directly,
telling Jun Xiaoyao everything she knew, down to the last detail, without a single omission.
Jun Xiaoyao suddenly understood.
It was indeed close to what he had guessed.
The sacrificial power of the Black Heaven Clan was simply too heaven-defying.
Because of that, they had made many enemies.
Even the most ancient and ultimate imperial clans had been wary of them.
So those clans had schemed against the Black Heaven Clan and wiped them out entirely,
turning them into a clan swallowed up by ancient history.
As for the Great Black Heavenly God, he had refined the Demon Black Heaven and, driven by obsession, was trapped in an endless cycle of reincarnation.
But this time, Jun Xiaoyao would not let Su Hongyi meet an untimely end again.
She was to become his most capable right-hand person!
"Then this mirror is..."
Jun Xiaoyao turned to look at the pitch-black ancient mirror.
"This is a world-ending forbidden weapon, the Mirror of the Great Black Heaven, and the supreme treasure of the Black Heaven Clan."
Su Hongyi gave a slight wave of her hand, and the Mirror of the Great Black Heaven came soaring through the air.
Its quality and the power it contained were in no way inferior to Jun Xiaoyao's Divine Wail War Halberd.
"No wonder the Divine Wail War Halberd trembled earlier. It turns out they share the same origin. That means each of the Six World-Ending Kings has their own world-ending forbidden weapon."
"My Divine Wail War Halberd, Su Hongyi's Mirror of the Great Black Heaven — the other kings, when they emerge, should each have one as well."
Jun Xiaoyao was thinking.
He suddenly thought of someone he had nearly overlooked and forgotten.
The little stable hand by Tushan Wanwan's side.
If he was also one of the Six Kings, he should be out searching for the world-ending forbidden weapon that belonged to him.
Jun Xiaoyao had long felt that there was still a secret behind the Divine Wail War Halberd.
Now it seemed — could there be some kind of connection behind all six world-ending forbidden weapons?
Something like...
six keys.
Of course, this was only Jun Xiaoyao's speculation.
"Young master, this belongs to you."
Su Hongyi held the Mirror of the Great Black Heaven in both hands and offered it to Jun Xiaoyao with great reverence.
Even though this item should rightfully have been hers,
she still handed it over to Jun Xiaoyao without a moment's hesitation.
"No need, keep it for now. I'll take it when the time comes." Jun Xiaoyao waved his hand.
It might come in handy in the future, and for now it was better to let Su Hongyi hold onto it to strengthen her power.
"Thank you, young master."
A faint smile appeared on Su Hongyi's fair and delicate face.
This was a sign of Jun Xiaoyao's trust in her.
Because of the Demon Black Heaven, all the curse energy within Su Hongyi's body had been purged, and things like scars would no longer surface.
At this moment, Su Hongyi's skin was fair and smooth, and her smile was bright and radiant.
Of course, that was only for Jun Xiaoyao.
To anyone else,
she was still that cold and emotionless Crimson Demon Empress.
"Alright, everything has gone smoothly. It's time to wrap up this trip to the borderlands."
Jun Xiaoyao let out a light breath.
Although he also very much wanted to return directly to the immortal domain, to find Jiang Shengyi, to return to the Jun family, and to see all those familiar faces,
and to prove to the world
that this game played against the heavens had been won by him, Jun Xiaoyao —
but...
Jun Xiaoyao still had unfinished business in the foreign realm.
The matter of the Soul Book, the secret behind the Six World-Ending Kings, the connection between the Farshore Imperial Clan and the ghost-masked woman, and most importantly —
his father, Jun Wuhui — where exactly was he, and what scheme was he laying out?
Because of these matters, Jun Xiaoyao could not return to the immortal domain for the time being.
But one could only imagine what a sensation it would cause if Jun Xiaoyao returned to the immortal domain in his true form.
Both the immortal domain and the foreign realm would likely be shaken to their core, stirring up an enormous uproar.
"Hongyi, let's go."
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze swept once more toward the immortal domain's geniuses in the distance.
Ancient Emperor's Son and the others were too terrified to take a single step forward.
That one move, the Divine Sacrifice, had truly subdued every genius from the immortal domain.
Jun Xiaoyao wasn't in a hurry — he would deal with them and make them pay once he returned to the immortal domain.
He also sensed a gaze resting on him.
It was Ling Yuan.
"You've noticed something, haven't you — but you'll probably just write it off as an illusion."
Jun Xiaoyao thought to himself as he looked at Ling Yuan.
He could sense that Ling Yuan seemed to have developed some unusual feelings toward him.
But Jun Xiaoyao was clear-headed.
All of that could wait until he returned to the immortal domain.
Just as Jun Xiaoyao was about to leave with Su Hongyi,
he suddenly stopped in his tracks.
His keen divine sense had detected a trace of extreme danger.
This sense of danger did not come from any of the immortal domain's geniuses.
Among geniuses of the same level, none could give him this kind of feeling.
Then the only possibility was...
Jun Xiaoyao's gaze snapped sharply toward the distance.
It was the immortal domain's border!
And deep within the immortal domain, among the cosmic stars,
seven stars had gathered together.
And within the hazy radiance of those seven stars,
a vague, somewhat aged and hunched silhouette appeared.
"Heh, so the little one has sensed it. Truly, the younger generation is to be feared. To have even survived the Final Supreme Tribulation — a Great Emperor won't be the end of the road for this one in the future. Remarkable indeed."
"But what a pity. Not being a hero of my immortal domain, this must be nipped in the bud."
The vague, aged silhouette murmured to itself.
Though its figure was somewhat hunched, around it surged the radiance of the imperial dao.
An aura of a Great Emperor, boundlessly vast, illuminated the myriad heavens and shone across the universe!
As if the ten thousand daos of all the heavens were trampled beneath its feet!
This was a Great Emperor of the immortal domain!
It was worth noting that because of the Ancient Covenant, true Great Emperors rarely made an appearance in the immortal domain.
And this silhouette was one such true Great Emperor.
A Great Emperor renowned for the way of the arrow!
He had once drawn his bow at the border, firing a single arrow across the entire borderlands to slay several near-immortals in the foreign realm, earning tremendous battle merits!
He was practically a human artillery platform — those locked onto by his arrows almost never survived!
This aged, hunched old figure raised a hand.
Around him, seven stars stretched out rays of light that intertwined with one another,
forming a gleaming bowstring!
Then, slowly, he drew it back.
In an instant!
The entire starry expanse, every last shred of heaven and earth spiritual energy, condensed completely!
Countless runes and great daos manifested!
Billions upon billions of law chains intertwined and converged together.
The radiance of a Great Emperor spread, gathering the rules of the great dao and forging them into an arrow shimmering with imperial dao light!
Using the stars as the bow!
Using the rules as the arrow!
Whoosh!
The arrow of rules was loosed!
Its speed surpassed the speed of light, piercing through the void and tearing across the vast expanse!
The terrifying power, beyond all description, made the entire cosmic world tremble as it reached the borderlands!
The borderlands shook!
"What's going on!"
On the side of the Grand Sacrificial Blood Ground, every genius felt a wave of shuddering.
That overwhelming might made the ten thousand daos of all the heavens tremble!
"A Great Emperor!"
Jun Xiaoyao's brow furrowed tightly as he looked toward the immortal domain.
A point of light appeared.
It was the arrow of rules, crossing billions of spaces in nearly an instant to arrive at the borderlands.
One arrow, and the entire borderlands convulsed!
This was the might of a Great Emperor!
