Chapter 673: Chapter 665: Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor
This black-robed elder is the greatest supporter behind the Unbeatable Emperor, known as the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor. The title of Unbeatable Emperor is given to each generation’s emperor successor in the Undefeated Emperor Clan, which has seen many generations of Unbeatable Emperors.
To obtain the title Unbeatable Emperor among one’s peers is almost to secure the path of the Daoist Emperor, and the reason lies in the Immortal Emperor’s Eye. Acquiring the title allows one to inherit the Immortal Emperor’s Eye from the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor.
Even the Undefeated Emperor Clan is unaware of the existence of the Immortal Emperor’s Eye. The clan members only know that the Unbeatable Emperor wields a taboo power that cannot be exposed, and they will protect this secret even at the cost of their lives.
The Immortal Emperor’s Eye of the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor bears no greater karmic ties; he only witnessed the Stealing Heaven Immortal Sect and the Stealing Heaven Emperor being suppressed by the Celestial Court, which made him wary of exposing the Immortal Emperor’s Eye.
However, the power of the Immortal Emperor’s Eye is too formidable for him to relinquish. Over the years, in moments of despair, he mastered the Immortal Emperor’s Eye, thereby creating the renowned Undefeated Emperor Clan in the Primordial Emperor Domain.
Now, with the cultivation level of the Miao Zhen Daluo Immortal, his cultivation reaches the heavens and the earth, remaining hidden behind the scenes while observing the rise and fall of the human world with a smile.
If the Unbeatable Emperor and the other elite members of the clan had not been annihilated, he would not have acted.
Upon realizing that the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor had no entanglement with the Celestial Court and even feared it, Gu An suddenly changed his mind.
Of course, the main reason was that the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor only had a lifespan of several trillion years left, and killing him would seize several billion years of life.
But for the current Gu An, life of several billion years was not that important; perhaps the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor could create even greater benefits for him.
Gu An threw the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor into his Dao Fruit Universe.
All Daluo Immortals can develop a universe within the depths of their souls. Some Daluo Immortals focus on developing the power of the universe. Previously, Gu An tried to plant and harvest medicinal herbs in his Dao Fruit Universe but didn’t gain life from it, so he had no interest in developing the Dao Fruit Universe.
For him, the Dao Fruit Universe was more like a divine skill, used to seal enemies and store treasures.
The Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor opened his eyes and instinctively looked around, finding himself in a dark universe.
Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and quickly turned his head, only to freeze, his eyes widening with disbelief.
A pair of golden-red eyes stared at him in the darkness, and in front of these eyes, the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor felt an urge to submit.
“Who… are you?”
The Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor asked, his voice quivering.
He could feel his Immortal Emperor’s Eye shivering in fear, an emotion he had never experienced before, intensifying his dread of the mysterious eyes ahead.
“Regarding the death of your descendants, you should already know the cause and effect. Do you have any grievances?”
Gu An’s voice sounded, cold in tone.
Even though the Undefeated Emperor Clan had its reasons, ultimately they refused to relent. Gu An did not directly destroy them; he advised first, and when they refused to heed, they had to face demise.
The Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor took a deep breath and said, “The strong vanquish the weak; what grievances could there be? I came because I did not recognize your strength surpassed mine.”
“Before I die, I still wish to ask clearly, who exactly are you? Are these eyes of yours the Immortal Emperor’s Eye?”
Since the fall of the Stealing Heaven Emperor, he had never seen another pair of Immortal Emperor’s Eyes, leading to many speculations about Gu An’s identity.
He even suspected Gu An might be the Stealing Heaven Emperor!
“You guessed wrong; I have no connection with the Stealing Heaven Emperor. Indeed, my eyes are the Immortal Emperor’s Eye. You should be able to sense that, even as both possessors of the Immortal Emperor’s Eye, the difference between us is significant, unrelated to cultivation level.”
Gu An’s voice resonated, rendering the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor silent, filled with a strong sense of defeat.
“Do you hate the Celestial Court?”
Gu An’s inquiry awakened distant memories for the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor.
His Immortal Emperor’s Eye suddenly appeared, and he gritted his teeth, saying, “Yes, at this point, I have nothing to hide. The Celestial Gods of the Celestial Court killed my wife and children. This vendetta, I will never forget for eternity!”
The Unbeatable Emperor was generations apart from him; he held little affection for him, more of a familial duty to continue the lineage.
But his wife and children were different. Even after such a long time, he could hardly suppress his hatred when he thought of them.
The Immortal Emperor’s Eye of the Stealing Heaven Emperor instigated fear in the Celestial Court, and when the Celestial Gods descended, unable to capture the Stealing Heaven Emperor, the victorious Stealing Heaven Emperor, filled with fighting spirit, even led the Stealing Heaven Immortal Sect to actively confront the Celestial Court, invoking the might of the court for suppression.
In that battle, the Primordial Emperor Domain was affected, leading to the tragic deaths of countless innocent beings, including the wife and children of the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor.
His hatred stemmed from the fact that his wife and children were not casualties of battle but were sacrificed entirely by a wounded Celestial God who needed Qi-Blood from his entire city, while he happened to be outside the city and escaped, witnessing his wife and children’s souls consumed by the Celestial God.
During Gu An’s Soul Search, he couldn’t clearly see the Heavenly Court’s Immortal Gods, but he could perceive the situation at the time, albeit the Immortal Gods appeared vague.
Now the Celestial Court’s Immortal Gods were always plotting against him. Even when the Celestial Spirit God suggested the strategy to ascend to immortality through meritorious deeds, he continued to guard against the Celestial Court.
The Undefeated Emperor Clan was a power that could be drawn in.
His Absolute Void Eye had absolute suppression over the Immortal Emperor’s Eye, so he did not fear betrayal from the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor.
“Swear your allegiance to me, and this causality shall be settled. Both of us being wielders of the Immortal Emperor’s Eye, we belong to the same camp; at least we will not be accepted by the Celestial Court, only suppressed by it.”
Gu An’s voice sounded, and the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor wasn’t surprised. When he saw the eyes of the other, he knew the person was not a Celestial God of the Celestial Court.
If he refused, he wouldn’t just die; the entire Emperor Clan might face annihilation too.
He had worked hard for many years and didn’t want his efforts to go to waste now.
In his eyes, the Undefeated Emperor Clan was merely his weapon, his weapon for revenge against the Celestial Court. However, the weapon wasn’t strong enough yet; he needed to bide his time.
Gu An, aware of his hatred and plans for the Emperor Clan, sought to subjugate him.
“I can make your Immortal Emperor’s Eye stronger.”
Upon hearing Gu An’s words, the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor’s pupils shrank, and he immediately knelt, solemnly saying, “Greetings, my lord!”
…
Subduing the Unbeaten Emperor Ancestor was merely a side chapter. After assigning him some tasks, Gu An let him go, continuing his peaceful life.
Since the return of Yuan Songzi, Zhao Rushen began contemplating reaching the level of Daoist Emperor.
This plan had long circulated within the Dao Court, and in past years, Zhao Rushen was unable to defeat Emperor Tianhong. He felt that only becoming a Daoist Emperor could fully surpass Emperor Tianhong.
However, Yuan Songzi did not agree to take him on the Path of the Great Dao, making Zhao Rushen quite dissatisfied.
Yuan Songzi’s assertion that he wasn’t ready felt humiliating to him. Why could a mundane woman like Xiao Lan go, but he couldn’t?
Occasionally, when Gu An went to accompany Xiao Lan, he noticed Zhao Rushen’s maneuvers, as this fellow was secretly enlisting the upper echelons of the Dao Court, with a mind even inclined toward rebellion.
To this, Gu An had no intention of intervening, as long as it didn’t affect Xiao Lan.
Time flowed rapidly under this backdrop, far faster than before, as the Era of the Primordial Era also approached its end.
