161: Emperor Burial Star, Pitch Black Copper Coffin
...
"Have you heard? The black bronze coffin has appeared in the starry sky, on a planet not far from here, a planet named—Burial Emperor Star!"
"What? The black bronze coffin? Isn't that one of the ten greatest unknown mysteries of the starry sky in legends?"
"Yes, it is said that the black bronze coffin contains the secrets of becoming an Immortal and even reaching the supreme peak. That's a true great Opportunity!"
"Heh heh, that's right! And I've heard that the most powerful Prides of the Heavens won't be competing with us for the black bronze coffin this time!"
"Hmm? Why is that?"
"Heh heh, as far as I know, the strongest Prides of the Heavens have already reached the twelfth stage of the Emperor Road. That stage is an extremely dangerous one on the Emperor Road, and even Prides of the Heavens as talented as them will need a lot of time to pass it..."
"So, you mean to say, we have a chance to contend for the Opportunity of the black bronze coffin?"
"Exactly! We are super geniuses ourselves; in a declining era, we could have proven the Dao. How could we be content with mediocrity? In my plan, once we obtain the Opportunity of the black bronze coffin and gain the secret to becoming an Immortal, we will catch up with renewed vigor! By then, we will be the strongest Prides of the Heavens in the world!"
Between the eighth and ninth stages of the Emperor Road, in a corner of the starry sky, two geniuses at the late Saint cultivation level were engaged in an intense discussion.
Being able to reach this point in such a short time, it was undeniable that both were geniuses among geniuses.
But precisely because of this, both geniuses also clearly realized that their current strength was not enough to allow them to reach the end.
And in this situation, the Opportunity within the black bronze coffin was their only chance.
"The black bronze coffin, another Immortal Opportunity... It seems I need to make a trip to Burial Emperor Star."
Unbeknownst to them, a figure had appeared behind the two Prides of the Heavens. This figure wore a white robe, ethereal as an Immortal; it was Su Xuan.
At this moment, a strong light was bursting forth from Su Xuan's deep eyes.
Clearly, Su Xuan had heard every word spoken by the two Cultivators just now.
The next second, a rainbow light streaked across the starry sky.
Su Xuan had already headed towards Burial Emperor Star.
...
Burial Emperor Star is an ancient planet, suspended in the vast starry sky, incredibly independent.
This ancient planet had been very peaceful before, with no one setting foot on it.
But now, many Cultivators were approaching this planet like a swarm of locusts.
These Cultivators were undoubtedly the Prides of the Heavens on the Emperor Road this time.
They had also learned that there was a great Opportunity on Burial Emperor Star, so they rushed to Burial Emperor Star, wanting to seize this chance.
Thus, for a time, Prides of the Heavens gathered on Burial Emperor Star.
"This is an extraordinary planet, full of the aura of time, but also barren, with no signs of life remaining."
A Pride of the Heavens who had just arrived at Burial Emperor Star exclaimed.
"In the endless ages past, Burial Emperor Star was an Emperor Star, from which a great figure with heaven-reaching cultivation emerged. But later, that great figure provoked an even more terrifying enemy, causing the entire planet to be destroyed."
"At that time, that great figure had not yet truly risen, and could only watch his own planet be destroyed, powerless...
But it was also from then on that that great figure revived amidst destruction, carrying monstrous hatred, rising in the shortest time, and finally becoming a Forbidden Existence, completely eradicating the enemy from back then."
"Forbidden Existence, how strong must that be? At least an Immortal, right?"
"Yes, but not entirely. The Realm that great figure ultimately reached even surpassed Immortals!"
"Hiss, how terrifying!"
In a desolate area, a group of young Prides of the Heavens were discussing everything that had happened on Burial Emperor Star.
"Is this Burial Emperor Star? Amidst the desolation, there's actually a majestic vitality permeating. It truly is miraculous..."
Suddenly, a figure appeared on Burial Emperor Star.
It was a young figure, but it exuded a terrifying sense of oppression.
That figure was very tall and straight, like a divine sword about to be unsheathed, emitting a heart-pounding sharpness.
"It's Jian Wushuang! The sword Dao Prodigy on the Emperor Road, a supreme Pride of the Heavens! I never expected him to come!"
"Jian Wushuang was one of the strongest Prides of the Heavens during the Immortal Ancient era. After the revival of spiritual energy, he gained immense benefits, not only breaking through to Great Saint in cultivation, but his sword Dao cultivation also reached a frightening level...
With him here, the Opportunity on Burial Emperor Star is probably out of our reach..."
A Pride of the Heavens sighed, somewhat regretfully.
Jian Wushuang was definitely one of the most powerful Prides of the Heavens on the Emperor Road. His arrival made many Prides of the Heavens who wanted to contend for the Opportunity on Burial Emperor Star feel a sense of despair.
"Jian Wushuang, long time no see."
Suddenly, a powerful voice echoed in this space.
Immediately after, a black-robed figure appeared in this world.
And with the appearance of that figure, a terrifying Emperor's Might instantly enveloped the entire world.
"Emperor's Might! Releasing Emperor's Might at the Great Saint Realm, he is... the Great Emperors Son, Lin Feng!"
"Lin Feng, he is also an invincible Pride of the Heavens. Not only has his cultivation broken through to Great Saint, but he has also cultivated a wisp of Immortal Qi... I never expected him to come as well..."
"What?! Cultivated Immortal Qi?! The Emperor Road has just begun, and the ultimate excitement is still far from arriving, yet he has already cultivated Immortal Qi?!"
Lin Feng's appearance instantly caused quite a stir, making countless Prides of the Heavens feel an even deeper despair.
That was a Pride of the Heavens who had cultivated Immortal Qi, completely on a different level compared to ordinary Prides of the Heavens!
"Lin Feng, it's actually you. Do you also want to contend for the Immortal Opportunity?"
Seeing Lin Feng appear, Jian Wushuang was somewhat surprised, speaking coldly with a hint of disdain.
He still remembered defeating Lin Feng with his own hands during the Immortal Ancient era.
Lin Feng was merely his defeated opponent.
Perceiving the attitude in Jian Wushuang's tone, Lin Feng snorted coldly.
"Heh heh, of course. With the Opportunity to become an Immortal appearing, how could I not want it?"
Lin Feng looked askance at Jian Wushuang, his tone cold.
Now, he had already cultivated Immortal Qi!
No matter how strong Jian Wushuang was in the sword Dao, he would still be defeated in front of him!
"Lin Feng, your attitude isn't right, is it?"
Jian Wushuang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he spoke indifferently.
This defeated opponent dared to speak to him in such a tone. Did he not know his place?
"Jian Wushuang, you don't still think this is the Immortal Ancient era, do you? Now that I have cultivated Immortal Qi, do you really think I would fear you?!"
A cold shout echoed throughout the world; it was Lin Feng's voice.
And accompanying the sound, an even more terrifying Emperor's Might instantly enveloped the entire world!
On Lin Feng's body, a wisp of Immortal Qi swirled, already adding an ethereal aura to him.
"Then let's fight!"
Jian Wushuang was slightly stunned, then immediately shouted loudly.
Instantly, a suffocating aura enveloped the entire space, scaring the other Prides of the Heavens into even slowing their breathing.
Some Prides of the Heavens even fled to the distance, escaping from this space.
"Both of you, we meet again."
Just then, a light voice suddenly echoed in this space.
Hmm???
This voice...
As if remembering something unpleasant, the aura of Jian Wushuang and Lin Feng instantly fluctuated significantly!
