Chapter 12 Heading to the Ancient Forbidden Land
Rumble!
Under the effect of Taiyi Immortal Pill, the five secret realms in the bodies of the two forbidden zone supreme masters regained vitality, and the blood and energy surged, like thunder roaring, causing all the heavens and the nine heavens and ten earths to shake.

For a moment, on the Big Dipper Star, all kinds of rules and orders intertwined, playing a lingering fairy music, and thousands of Dharma images and phantoms emerged, filling the void and crushing the sky. Each figure was a vast universe, representing a supreme avenue.

Everyone was watching their changes, and could clearly sense that the cracks on the platforms of the two supreme immortals were healing rapidly, and the aura they emitted was becoming increasingly powerful.

They have recovered their past achievements and reached the pinnacle of the Tao again, but this is not the ultimate sublimation!

"Wow!"

In the Taichu Ancient Mine, a divine bird was born. It was extremely huge. With its wings spread out, it was unknown how many miles long it was. It spanned between heaven and earth. Just by flapping its wings gently, it was enough to destroy endless mountains and rivers, the vast starry sky, and shatter all things in the world!

Its feathers are all red, as if they were made of phoenix blood and red gold. They are flowing with dazzling light, like an eternal and immortal sun, dominating the world.

This is a creature standing at the pinnacle of humanity, and it looks exactly like some fairy in the fairyland. There is a beam of light shooting up into the sky above its head, which actually makes the mark of the heart of this world buzz, revealing its former identity.

The Ancient Emperor of Akabane!

At the same time, in another life forbidden zone, Shenxu, chaotic immortal light was also dancing inside, and the essence of heaven and earth was hanging down, boundless and magnificent.

Endless sun essence, moon light, and starlight fell and submerged the area. Faintly, a humanoid creature could be seen walking out of it. He was wearing a purple gold Taoist robe and a wooden hairpin on his head. He had white hair and a childlike face, and a pair of eyes as calm as water. But if you looked closely, you could see the scene of the creation of the world in his mind, and it was obvious that he was also an extremely Taoist figure.

He is the helper recruited by Xuan Ye, a great emperor of the human race who attained enlightenment in the early ancient times after Fuxi and Nuwa, with the honorific title of Ying Chen.

Emperor Yingchen pursued the path to immortality all his life. Apart from the two boys, he did not accept any disciples, let alone leave behind a Taoist tradition. He was free of all worries.

Perhaps this was the reason why he entered the forbidden area in his later years. After guarding all living beings for tens of thousands of years, he decided to pursue his obsession and wait for the path to immortality to open up.

The two truly perfect ancient emperors and great kings reappeared in the world, shocking the world.

I don’t know how many creatures cried out in surprise. It felt like a dream, so unreal that it made many people’s scalps tingle.

All the emperors coexist in the same world, this is a scene that only appears in myths and legends!
Soon, Ancient Emperor Chiyu and Emperor Yingchen both restrained their aura and dispersed all rules and visions, appearing in front of Xuan Ye like two ordinary mortals.

"This time, I would like to thank fellow Taoist for the elixir." The two ancient supreme beings opened their mouths and thanked Xuan Ye very solemnly.

"It's okay, just don't forget our agreement." Xuan Ye waved his hand, glanced at Emperor Yingchen and Queen Chiyu Gu, then turned and left.

"Fellow Daoist Chiyu, you and I can open a Taoist temple here and jointly deduce the method of immortality. All people and things in this world are not on the same level as us." Emperor Yingchen said slowly.

"Good." The Ancient Emperor Akabane also agreed.

Afterwards, the two emperors found a location deep in the Taichu Ancient Mine, jointly opened up an extremely simple cave, and began to discuss the Tao directly. From time to time, other awakened supreme beings would join in and together they would interpret the method of immortality.

On the other side, Xuan Ye stayed outside the restricted area for a while, and after confirming that no other incidents had occurred, he went to the Jiang family, returned the Hengyu furnace, and retrieved his Yongye Wheel. By the way, he also personally took action to condense the divine source liquid and sealed the two emperors of the Jiang family again.

Afterwards, he continued to move forward towards the southern region, preparing to enter the ancient forbidden land to meet the ruthless empress and the great holy body.

They were one of the few helpers he could completely trust!

However, before that, he had to pick up someone first, the little girl who was once loved by countless people - Nannan!
On that day, in the Southern Region, countless people who recognized Xuan Ye's identity were shocked. They saw a scene that they would never forget for the rest of their lives: the most terrifying Shura Emperor in the world, was accompanied by a two or three-year-old girl!
"Thank you very much, Nannan, for being willing to accompany me on this trip. You've helped me a lot." Xuan Ye's tone was gentle, not at all like the Shura in the rumors, who was fierce and cruel.

"Nannan believes that big brother is not a bad person." Little Nannan is not afraid of strangers. Instead, she is surprised by the current experience.

The ancient forbidden land is also a life forbidden zone. It is filled with a mysterious power that can deprive living beings of their lifespan. At first glance, it is similar to the Eternal Night Magic Art created by Xuan Ye.

As soon as you step into this place, the first thing that catches your eye is the nine holy mountains. On each holy mountain there is a sacred spring and a sacred tree. Those are the Nine Wonderful Elixirs of Immortality after being split apart by the ruthless empress.

Xuan Ye strode forward with great speed, his divine power flowing naturally without a single trace leaking out. At the same time, he activated the power of time to completely cover Nannan, just in case.

"Xuan Ye is here to visit, and I hope to see you, fellow Taoist."

Not long after, Xuan Ye arrived in front of the central abyss. He did not go any deeper and sent a message to the bottom, requesting to meet with the Lord of the Wasteland, the ruthless empress.

Silently, an extremely majestic figure covered with golden hair appeared in front of Xuan Ye. He looked very scary, and the whole person was shrouded in thick fog. Faintly, there seemed to be the sound of metal being dragged.

This creature is ten feet tall, with blood and energy surging all over his body, no less than the Supreme of the Forbidden Zone. It is actually the Great Saint Body that once suppressed the dark turmoil of an era!

Of course, now their physique is more commonly called the Immortal Golden Body, and the Holy Body is a respectful name given to this lineage by later generations to show respect for the great achievements made by the nine sages.

"Great Emperor of the world, please come in. She is waiting for you downstairs." The Great Saint Body spoke with a low and hoarse voice, as if he had not spoken for a long time. Between the golden hair on his face, a pair of blood-red eyes opened and closed, which was particularly creepy.

In this era, there are not too many slaves in the ancient forbidden land, and there are no powerful people with profound cultivation, so Xuan Ye can only be led in by the former Lord of the Wilderness with the Great Saint Body.

"Thank you."

Xuan Ye also respected this Great Saint Body who had been fighting against the Forbidden Zone Supreme until the last moment of his life. After thanking him, he did not immediately go to see the Empress. Instead, he took out a Taiyi Immortal Pill and continued:

"Not long ago, I refined a pot of medicine that can remove curses and prolong life. Now I will give this one to you, fellow Taoist."

"I won't refuse. If you need me in the future, just let me know." The Great Saint Body did not act pretentiously and took the Taiyi Immortal Pill immediately.

In fact, if it weren’t for the ruthless empress who took over the ancient forbidden land, he, the former lord of the wilderness, would have died and sat in meditation here long ago!
"To be honest, I do have a favor to ask of you. The Forbidden Zone is too powerful for me to handle alone. I have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure and take the risk of trading with the Forbidden Zone Supreme to delay the outbreak of unrest.

But human hearts are like devils, and those forbidden zone supreme beings are no longer the ancient emperors with great achievements in the past. Although I have adopted a method of checks and balances, there is no guarantee that something unexpected will happen.

Therefore, I hope that fellow Taoists can observe me secretly during my retreat and, if necessary, refine this elixir and guard the human world for a period of time."

"I will definitely live up to your trust!" The Great Saint Body responded in a deep voice.

Immediately, Xuan Ye performed an ancient ritual, took a step forward, and took Nannan down into the abyss.

In just a moment, he felt an even more violent aura, and even his emperor-level magic power was almost overflowing and was stripped away by this force.

However, Nannan didn't feel anything about it. She felt like she was back home and was not affected at all.

In front of us, there stands a huge stone gate, quiet and deep, as if it connects to a vast fairyland. On one side of it, there sits a statue of a peerless empress, giving people a feeling that she is about to ascend to become a fairy at any time, but she has chosen to stay in the human world.

Not to become an immortal, just to wait for your return in the world of mortals!
At this moment, this sentence was vividly interpreted in front of Xuan Ye.

boom!
The stone gate rumbled and slowly opened in front of Xuan Ye's eyes, suddenly gushing out a misty fairy mist, revealing a strange world that was shocking. In a trance, it seemed as if he had arrived outside the gate of the fairyland.

The vague fairyland is right in front of us, with extremely real fairy rules flowing and even wisps of long-lived matter in the air, but it is always out of reach.

This is the fairyland artificially created by great magic power, including the figure of the empress. It is a pity that it is not perfect. To be more precise, it is not real enough. It always feels like a castle in the air, which will shatter at the touch of a button.

Xuan Ye guessed that this was the ruthless empress's method of achieving immortality in another life. Splitting and planting the Nine Wonderful Elixirs of Immortality was also a way to perfect this method of immortality in preparation for the next transformation.

Further ahead, there is a magnificent bronze fairy palace, standing in the beautiful fairyland, surrounded by clear springs, and embellished with many medicinal herbs and exotic flowers. Coupled with the occasional emanation of mysterious yellow air, this area seems even more extraordinary.

Seeing this bronze fairy palace and the mother energy of all things in reality, Xuan Ye's heart could not help but be excited. It turned out that during this period of time, Henren, who had a brother complex, had already been preparing for the return of his "brother".

Swish!
Suddenly, Nannan beside Xuan Ye screamed, and immediately turned into a stream of light, sinking into the empress's brow in the bronze fairy palace.

Then, the empress, who had been a little dull at first, suddenly became lively, as if she had just woken up from a trance-like state, and looked at Xuan Ye calmly.

This palace was filled with an endless aura of peace, isolating all the mysterious power in the ancient forbidden land. Similarly, it also suppressed the murderous aura of the immortal palace itself.

Xuan Ye walked into the Immortal Palace and looked towards the center, where the empress was sitting cross-legged, with a blazing fairy light lingering around her body. She looked otherworldly and did not look like an emperor on earth, but rather like a fairy from the fairyland.

This is the most talented and ruthless emperor in ancient and modern times!
The real peerless one looks noble and elegant, unspeakably cold, but once he starts to fight, he is extremely domineering and looks down on everyone else. Few people in history could resist him.

Right now, she is in her fourth generation and is a true Heavenly Emperor.

In his first life, he was the ruthless emperor. In his later years, he created the Immortal Heavenly Art, transformed himself from the demon fetus into a divine body, and lived out his second life.

In his second life, he was incarnated as the Emperor of Nanling, who destroyed a large forbidden zone of life. His achievements were unprecedented in history. In his later years, he entered the Ten Thousand Dragons' Nest and lived out his third life with the True Dragon's Immortality Elixir. He buried part of his emperor's body and soul in the Chaos Dragon's Nest.

In her third life, she found the Bronze Immortal Palace again, where she underwent a dramatic transformation and lived out her fourth life.

Finally, she entered the ancient forbidden land and observed the road to immortality under the abyss. She wanted to use it to interpret the method of longevity, but it was not perfect. So, she decided to split the Nine Wonderful Immortal Elixir into nine parts.

During this period, the ruthless emperor locked himself with a divine chain made from various colors of fairy gold, in order to imprison her Tao and the Law, and no longer prevent future beings from achieving Tao.

It was also for this reason that Emperor Hengyu was able to successfully become the emperor after the Henren Empress. Otherwise, Emperor Henren would have been the last emperor in the long river of history!
"Hello, fellow Taoist." Xuan Ye spoke and communicated with the empress.

"Fellow Daoist Xuan Ye, please take a seat."

The empress raised her hand, and overwhelming Taoist energy surged out from her fingertips, condensing into a Taoist cushion, which fell in front of her, motioning Xuan Ye to sit down.

Xuan Ye was not polite either. He sat face to face with the ruthless empress, restrained his energy, and slowly said, "I came to visit you today. First, I want to borrow your precious land to practice in seclusion for a period of time. Second, I want to invite you to deduce a corner of the future together."

Xuan Ye practiced the Great Way of Time. Looking at the entire Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the most suitable place for his retreat was the ancient forbidden land, and perhaps no other sacred ancient land dared to claim the first place.

What's more, his Eternal Night Magic Skills and the mysterious power of this place complement each other. If the curse of heaven's jealousy is not lifted, perhaps he can live a second life on his own in these two thousand years.

By then, Xuan Ye might be called Emperor Xuantian, and his fighting power would be incomparable to that of an ordinary second-generation emperor!
“I practiced both time and space. When I integrated the Heavenly Heart Seal, some strange images flashed through my mind, and I accidentally glimpsed a corner of the future.

In the near future, there will appear between heaven and earth a great emperor who attains enlightenment through the void, and there will also be a great emperor who attains enlightenment through time.

What surprised me most was that there was also a great emperor who had achieved enlightenment with an indestructible golden body, and next to him, I also saw Nannan’s figure.”

Hearing this, the usually calm empress lost her composure. Her eyes were filled with surprise. She stared at Xuan Ye closely and said bluntly, "I will deduce this with you, and maybe we can see a more complete future."

"it is good."

Xuan Ye held the Wheel of Eternal Night above his head and exerted the power of the Avenue of Time to the extreme. In a moment, a magnificent silver river floated above his head, dropping endless fragments of time, dancing beside him and the empress.
