Chapter 1876: Chapter 1691: Seizing the Coffin!
"Emperor’s Coffin!"
Suddenly, everyone’s eyes blazed as they sharply turned towards the Divine Nine-layered Coffin on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar.
Indeed, the Primordial Emperor was reincarnated in the fiftieth pass, and now, his Great Emperor Reincarnation might just be inside.
Each person’s eyes flickered with intense fervor.
The Great Emperor Reincarnation, the supreme Emperor’s Foundation, was right before them; how could anyone remain calm?
Obtaining it would mean gaining the Emperor’s Foundation, paving the way for proving the Dao and becoming an emperor.
Yet Ye Chen’s eyes were slightly narrowed as he stared at the Divine Nine-layered Coffin on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar. For some reason, he felt this coffin was extraordinary, causing unease.
"If anything seems amiss, retreat into my Chaos Tripod immediately, don’t risk it," Ye Chen sent a message to a few people.
Though suspicious, they nodded, trusting Ye Chen.
"Dad, did you discover something?" Yaya sent a message.
Ye Chen nodded gravely, saying, "Before you arrived, I spent three days lingering in the Ancient Empire’s ruins in the Western Wilderness Continent."
"The Ancient Empire existed even longer than the Primordial Emperor, enduring to this day. Particularly in its ruins are stored many ancient artifacts and records of the Ancient Empire."
"I’ve always been curious about the fall of the Primordial Emperor and the Great Emperor Reincarnation, and through investigation, I’ve uncovered shocking truths."
"Though unconfirmed, if my theory is correct, this may not be a grand opportunity to compete for the Emperor’s Foundation, but rather a great disaster."
Ye Chen’s expression grew increasingly grave towards the end.
"What truth!?"
They were all shocked, clearly not expecting that Ye Chen, unbeknownst to them, had been investigating many unknown secrets during this time, stirring their curiosity.
"It’s too soon to be certain. I’m not sure yet, we’ll have to watch and see," Ye Chen shook his head, remaining mysterious.
Seeing this, they suppressed their impatience, turning their gaze towards the Divine Nine-layered Coffin on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar.
Meanwhile, none of the powerful ones saw the Five Ancient Sovereigns.
The Five Ancient Sovereigns clearly came for the Great Emperor Reincarnation and entered the fiftieth pass earlier than anyone else. With their cosmic dominator-level Supreme Cultivation, the guardians of the fiftieth pass couldn’t possibly stop their advance.
Yet as powerful as the Five Ancient Sovereigns were, they disappeared when approaching where the Great Emperor Reincarnation might be in the Divine Nine-layered Coffin.
This couldn’t help but raise suspicion.
Where there’s something unusual, there must be something extraordinary!
Many felt an inexplicable unease.
Even so, it didn’t deter the fervor in the eyes of the powerful ones, because inside the Divine Nine-layered Coffin was the Great Emperor Reincarnation, the Emperor’s Foundation, the most crucial existence for proving the Dao and becoming an emperor. No one was willing to give up easily.
Even if it was filled with strangeness and there was a risk of perishing, none would abandon the pursuit.
Boom boom boom——
Astonishing Sky Light soared into the sky, and in this part of space, the cultivation of the powerful ones was fully restored, no longer constrained by the End of World Rules, with no Forbidden Heaven and Earth. Each of them erupted into terrifying beams of light from the top of their skulls, with Divine Radiance sweeping through the sky, like immortal deities descending, attracting a lot of attention.
There were dozens to hundreds of such beams, with astonishingly powerful Qi mechanisms.
Among them, some were particularly formidable.
Meanwhile, finally, someone took action.
Boom——
A Great Power first charged towards the Pyramid Ancestral Altar from the sky, rushing straight to the Divine Nine-layered Coffin.
Buzz——
The invisible Dao Rules spread like lightning!
Again, the End of World Rules!
The Pyramid Ancestral Altar contained the same End of World Rules, but much stronger, heavily covering that area.
The Great Power hadn’t yet fully approached, and their Qi mechanism was severely weakened, with the Dao Power terrifyingly suppressed, reducing the sky-charging Divine Light to just a three-foot Protective Divine Light. Yet even so, they stepped onto the Pyramid Ancestral Altar, just a thousand feet away from the Divine Nine-layered Coffin.
This distance was too close!
The Great Power was quite delighted, unexpectedly being able to get so close to the Great Emperor Reincarnation. They hurriedly continued climbing the Pyramid Ancestral Altar, striving to resist the End of World Rules’ power.
The closer to the Divine Nine-layered Coffin, the more formidable and oppressive the rules appeared, continuously emanating, heavily suppressing mana, even more intensely than within the city.
Despite this, they were thrilled. As long as they obtained the Great Emperor Reincarnation and gained the Emperor’s Foundation, they were willing to undergo rebirth and cultivation once more.
But how could others just watch them obtain the Great Emperor Reincarnation?
"Humph, wishful thinking!"
The fierce figures of numerous Supremes flashed like lightning across the sky, simultaneously landing on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar. They were Great Power-level sect ancestors from various parts of the Cosmic Starry Sky, including renowned yet presumed deceased peerless powerhouses, with incomparably immense cultivation emerging, actively charging towards the Divine Nine-layered Coffin.
Kill!
Over thirty Great Powers descended on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar, rapidly approaching the Divine Nine-layered Coffin, all within a thousand-foot radius, quickly closing in.
The End of World Rules suppressed their vast mana, yet they retained an extremely powerful physical body, climbing effortlessly and swiftly. In almost an instant, they quickly ascended dozens of feet, closing in more and more towards the highest point of the Divine Nine-layered Coffin.
Meanwhile, other powerhouses, unwilling for the Great Emperor Reincarnation to fall into these others’ hands, rushed forward, among them some Heavenly Kings who landed on the Pyramid Ancestral Altar, having their Dao Cultivation entirely suppressed, leaving only the Supreme physical body.
It was precisely for this reason that these Heavenly Kings were delighted.
In ordinary times, facing these Great Powers, there was a chasmic gap in mana and cultivation, an insurmountable distance, preventing them from reverse-defeating immortals, defeating these Great Powers.
Yet under the End of World Rules, everything was equal, leaving only the physical body.
Whoever had a strong enough body held the key to victory.
These Great Powers, though possessing strong bodies, weren’t much stronger than the Heavenly Kings, since they focused more on Dao cultivation rather than true Body Refinement.
"Dare devils Heavenly Kings, courting death by attempting this!"
On the Pyramid Ancestral Altar, the expressions of many Great Powers turned sinister.
