Chapter 754: The Aging Great Emperor Sweeps Across the Present Age
Several You Race Supremes arrived in person, making no effort to conceal it at all. The Aura of those who once reached the ultimate Dao spread out, blotting out the sky and covering the earth.
At this instant, many practitioners of the Human Race immediately sensed it, simultaneously casting their gazes toward the Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace.
"It is the alien Supremes who have slaughtered their way to the imperial palace."
"These alien Supremes didn't dare to show their faces during the Peak period of our Human Race's Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, but now that the Great Emperor is about to pass away, they are all running out."
"They really are shameless enough."
Many Human Race practitioners wore expressions of grief and indignation, yet they could do nothing.
The Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor had overlooked the Great Wilderness for over two million years, keeping all the major alien races utterly well-behaved.
Even the legendary restricted zones never stirred up any commotion, unwilling to provoke the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor at the height of his prime.
"Hopefully… the Great Emperor will be all right."
The Human Race practitioners thought to themselves one after another.
As early as one hundred thousand years ago, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor had already been preparing for this day.
He had proactively transferred the Human Race Experts near the Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace, scattering them to various parts of the territory.
Furthermore, he issued an order that no matter what happened at the Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace, Human Race Experts were not allowed to approach.
The Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor had already anticipated that during his later years, some ancient Supreme emperors would become restless.
"You Race."
Inside the Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace, a figure soared into the sky. It was an old man with white hair and beard. With a solemn expression, he looked at the several You Race Supremes overlooking him from above. "Could it be that your You Race intends to violate the alliance established with our Human Race?"
During the prime of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, he had established alliances with other powerful clan venerables, agreeing not to attack one another.
The You Race was naturally among them.
"An alliance?"
A You Race Supreme sneered, "So what if we violate the alliance?"
The so-called alliance was naturally not without binding force, witnessed as it was by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
However, for Supreme emperors who had once dominated the world, the backlash of violating the alliance was still something they could endure.
The old man with white hair and beard wore an ugly expression. He had not expected that the You Race Supremes would be so shameless, openly and blatantly ignoring the alliance.
"Withdraw at once."
Another You Race Supreme gazed with a cold look at the white-haired old man.
This Human Race practitioner was a quasi-emperor. If he fought for his life, he could still cause a little trouble for Supremes like them.
Actually, it could hardly be called trouble. Even though the several You Race Supremes had slashed themselves, their strength was still far above that of the so-called quasi-emperor.
But the former's blood Qi and mental will were nearing exhaustion, and every bit of power used was less left over. The several You Race Supremes were unwilling to waste any effort on a quasi-emperor.
Their target from beginning to end was only one—
That was the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor.
Only by swallowing this current Great Emperor and absorbing the Great Emperor's Origin could they continue to barely survive.
"If you want to make a move against the Great Emperor, step over my corpse!"
The white-haired and bearded old man's gaze was resolute. Old and frail, he had long lost the possibility of becoming an emperor, which was why he was entirely willing to guard the imperial palace and prepare to sleep forever alongside the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor.
"In that case, go die."
The third You Race Supreme frowned and decisively made a move.
Although they were unwilling to waste any power on a mere quasi-emperor, it did not mean they could allow the other party to act presumptuously in front of them.
Rumble…
An invisible Aura shrouded the white-haired and bearded old man, causing the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth to retreat to a certain extent.
As former imperial Supremes, even after slashing themselves, their strength remained extremely formidable. If it weren't for the fact that every strike required paying a price and they had to remain dormant most of the time—
How could the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor have ever been born?
"Let's fight to the death!"
The white-haired and bearded old man took a deep breath. Facing the attack of an ancient Supreme emperor, he had no chance of winning at all.
But even if he died, he had to take a bite out of the opponent.
Right at this moment—
Thump—
A soft sound of footsteps came over.
From the depths of the imperial palace, a figure walked out.
The moment this figure appeared, the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth naturally quieted down.
Along with it, the strike from that You Race Supreme who had made a move was instantly neutralized.
"Great Emperor."
The white-haired old man's eye sockets turned red.
"Heavenly Yuan."
As for the several You Race Supremes, their expressions were solemn.
They were once emperors who overlooked the Great Wilderness Source World, and they clearly knew just how strong the existence at this level truly was.
In terms of combat power, if the several You Race Supremes fully awakened, they could also possess the combat power of truly Great Emperor-level Experts.
Yet it could not be sustained, and every time they awakened, they had to pay a tragic price.
This was also the reason why, during the prime of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, none of the barely surviving Supremes dared to jump out.
Because no matter how much the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor consumed, he could quickly recover. But ancient Supreme emperors like them could not, and they would be completely worn to death.
"I had almost forgotten about you little bugs."
Lin Yuan looked at the several You Race Supremes and said in a calm tone.
Ever since his descent, his target had always been the Red Dust Immortal and existences above the Red Dust Immortal.
Only Time Lifeforms of the same level could bring a slight threat to Lin Yuan.
"Heavenly Yuan, you are too arrogant."
The most powerful Supreme of the You Race finally spoke.
All along, he had been observing the movements inside the imperial palace. Now, waiting until Lin Yuan appeared, he finally spoke.
The remaining You Race Supremes also furrowed their brows.
Although they had slashed themselves and were no longer at their Peak strength, to be described as 'little bugs'?
"Heavenly Yuan, your second life is about to face the limit of your Lifespan. How much of your strength can you actually display? Do you dare to fight with all your might? What difference is there between you and us?"
The several You Race Supremes spoke one after another.
The Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, on the verge of his Lifespan limit, was not significantly different from the Supreme emperors who had slashed themselves; neither dared to make a move with full force.
"Heavenly Yuan, do you still not understand the situation even now?"
"Nowadays, it is not just our You Race that wants to kill you. Countless ancient Supreme emperors, as well as various restricted zone masters—who among them is not waiting to kill you?"
The most powerful You Race Supreme said, wanting to see a trace of panic on Lin Yuan's face.
"What a coincidence, I am too."
Lin Yuan wore a smile.
Having taken over the Physical Body of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, although Lin Yuan didn't need to fulfill the carrier's obsession, he didn't have any good impression of those barely surviving Supreme emperors and the various restricted zone masters.
He planned to take some time to resolve them all together.
These Supreme emperors and various restricted zone masters probably had accumulated quite a bit of undying matter, which could bring help to Lin Yuan's subsequent transformation.
"Such arrogant words."
The most powerful You Race Supreme sneered.
Even during the Peak period of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, he would not have dared to make a move against all the restricted zones and ancient Supreme emperors.
While the latter feared the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor as a thriving Great Emperor, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor also held misgivings.
Even if he could recover quickly, facing too many emperors of the same level all at once would be too much to handle.
The most crucial point was that it wasn't a matter of striking whenever one wanted. Those restricted zone masters hid in the restricted zones, and their spacetime coordinates could not be locked onto. Even if the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor wanted to sweep them away, he couldn't find them.
"I am going to see on what grounds you, Heavenly Yuan, can utter such words."
A You Race Supreme's Aura was rising, breaking into the emperor Domain in an instant and attacking toward Lin Yuan.
This was a Supreme emperor after a full awakening, nearly indistinguishable from a true Great Emperor.
At least during the period that the awakening was maintained, he could possess Great Emperor-level offensive power.
Bang!
It was like a pebble falling into the vast sea.
With a flip of Lin Yuan's right hand, this rushing You Race Supreme was forcibly obliterated.
His Physical Body, Soul, and mental will collapsed, wiped out directly from the inside out.
Dead silence.
Complete silence across the audience.
In the distance, the several You Race Supremes who were preparing to watch the battle and see just how much strength the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor still possessed all fell into silence.
What happened?
An ancient Supreme emperor who had fully awakened was slapped away by Lin Yuan with a single palm?
You must know that with a Supreme's strength, even if their Physical Body and Soul collapsed, they could quickly recover. However, that striking You Race Supreme was thoroughly obliterated, leaving no possibility of recovery or resurrection.
How could this be?!
"Too weak."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly. Having spent ten years in seclusion condensing undying matter, he had long since recovered the strength of a Thirteenth Order Time Lifeform, no weaker than a Red Dust Immortal.
If facing those Supreme emperors? Perhaps it would take a few moves, but these ordinary Supreme emperors? There were basically no ripples or obstacles whatsoever.
"Heavenly Yuan, you…?"
The strongest You Race Supreme stared closely at Lin Yuan.
Before coming, he had long made various expectations and preparations.
The worst result would be that the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor retained most of his Peak strength, requiring their several Supremes to go through a bitter battle.
But now?
Was this a bitter battle?
"Impossible."
"Heavenly Yuan, it is impossible for you to have such strength."
The other You Race Supremes found it hard to believe, feeling that their understanding had just been shattered.
If the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor could really manage to slap a Supreme to death with a single palm, had he been playing games with them all this time?
Whoosh!
No matter how inconceivable it was in their hearts.
However, the remaining You Race Supremes still turned and fled without the slightest hesitation.
Regardless of what means Lin Yuan used to achieve this scene, since he could slap that You Race Supreme to death with one palm, he could also slap them to death with one palm.
"Since you've already come."
Lin Yuan smiled slightly.
With a slight movement of his mind, terrifying blood Qi power permeated and spread, transforming into waves that crushed the fleeing You Race Supremes.
"This can also be considered some harvest."
Killing the several You Race Supremes, aside from their imperial weapons, Lin Yuan also obtained some undying matter.
This undying matter was condensed by the several ancient Supremes before they had slashed themselves. After a Supreme slashed themselves, their Realm would drop, making them unable to sense the undying matter permeating between heaven and earth, and thus they could no longer condense it.
Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace.
Numerous followers looked blankly at everything happening before their eyes.
Several You Race Supremes descended with monstrous Aura, wanting the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor to come out and accept his death.
As a result, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor did come out, but the one who died was not the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, but rather those several You Race Supremes.
Moreover, during this period, no fierce or tragic battle took place. The speed at which the You Race Supremes died exceeded their cognition. Who could have thought that the high-and-mighty Supremes could die so quickly? Without even struggling.
"I'm going out for a bit."
Lin Yuan glanced at the numerous followers and gave a brief instruction.
Since he had already made a move, he might as well thoroughly cleanse the outside world.
"Great Emperor."
That white-haired quasi-emperor wore an excited expression. "You… have you become a Supreme Emperor?"
In ancient legends, the extreme of a Great Emperor was a Supreme Emperor, living through long years and running through the ancient books of epochs.
"An emperor?"
Lin Yuan shook his head gently. "I haven't been one for a long time."
Restricted zone 'Yellow Springs'.
Several Yellow Springs masters wore expressions of utter disbelief.
Just now, they had watched from afar the scene at the Heavenly Yuan Imperial Palace. The various You Race Supremes making a move to hunt down the aging Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor were all under the watchful eyes of several Yellow Springs masters.
Yet the scene that happened afterwards left them dazed.
The several You Race Supremes were actually pinched to death by the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor as if pinching little bugs?
Just as the several Yellow Springs masters were shocked, their expressions suddenly changed drastically.
Because at some unknown time, a figure had already appeared outside the 'Yellow Springs' restricted zone.
It was precisely the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor.
"Great Emperor."
The several Yellow Springs masters suppressed the shock in their hearts. Unlike the choice made by the You Race Supremes, they did not flee at the first moment.
First, their old lair was right behind them. Even if they fled, where could they escape to?
Second, relying on the 'Yellow Springs' restricted zone, they had quite a bit of confidence, feeling that they wouldn't be as utterly incapable of resisting like the several You Race Supremes.
A dozen or so breaths later.
The 'Yellow Springs' restricted zone was leveled. The several Yellow Springs masters perished, their bodies and Dao dissolved, and the rare treasures accumulated over a long period all fell into Lin Yuan's hands.
"Yellow Springs?"
Lin Yuan looked at a spring eye deep within the restricted zone that continuously gushed out light yellow spring water.
He knew that this was the source of the 'Yellow Springs' restricted zone. Emperor-level Experts soaking in the Yellow Springs could transform their Physique into a Yellow Springs Physique, thereby greatly extending their Lifespan.
Although there were all sorts of side effects, many aging Great Emperors and Supremes still chose this path.
"Put it away."
Sensing that the Yellow Springs was extraordinary, Lin Yuan directly uprooted it and put it into his inner Universe.
Li Clan.
Before the rise of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, the Li Clan was the number one ethnic group in the Great Wilderness, with nearly twenty Supreme emperors in existence.
Although these Supreme emperors had all slashed themselves, with a quantity of more than twenty, even during the prime of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, he would not dare to commit any excessive acts against the Li Clan.
More than twenty Supreme emperors awakening simultaneously, even if it couldn't be sustained, could still massacre the Human Race in a short period of time, and the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor wouldn't be able to stop it.
Yet on this very day.
A figure descended upon the Li Clan.
Immediately afterwards, this once most powerful ethnic group in the Great Wilderness was massacred in blood.
During this period, the Li Clan's Supreme emperors awakened one after another, wanting to resist, but it was all to no avail.
In less than ten breaths, the entire Li Clan was wiped out, and nearly twenty-plus Supreme emperors completely perished.
Restricted zone 'Nether Earth'.
"Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, everything is a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding."
The master of the Nether Earth manifested, looking at Lin Yuan standing there, and spoke with a somewhat trembling voice.
"A misunderstanding?"
Lin Yuan glanced at the other party.
During the prime of the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, the master of the Nether Earth had once promised to protect the Human Race.
For this reason, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor proactively sent out one-fifth of the Great Emperor's Origin.
However, in the future timeline viewed by Lin Yuan, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor died, his Physical Body was carved up, and his Origin was swallowed. Not only did the master of the Nether Earth fail to fulfill the promise, but instead secretly pushed for the destruction of the Human Race.
A few breaths later.
There was no longer any restricted zone 'Nether Earth' in the world.
Just like that.
Amidst the shocked gazes of all living beings in the Great Wilderness Source World, one ethnic group after another that had overlooked the ages vanished successively, and one restricted zone after another that had existed since time immemorial was wiped out.
In the eyes of all living beings, the Heavenly Yuan Great Emperor, who was already in his later years, was steadily sweeping across everything in the world.
