However, bad things come in pairs.
In fact, at the end of the Immortal Heroic World, the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor had been in seclusion for a long time, and his existence had become dispensable for the Immortal Heroic World.
What plunged the entire Immortal Heroic World into an irretrievable state was the news that followed…
“The Drunken Daoist, along with eighty percent of the tenth level limit breakers of the Immortal Heroic World, has defected to the sovereign, all the Exchange Stone Pillars have vanished, and the treasure land guardians are also missing… Heavenly Dao Lord, has the Immortal Heroic World been abandoned…”
“Boom!”
The stone gate shattered into pieces, and the aura behind the door exuded a chilling and terrifying coldness.
“Abandoned? No! We have never been abandoned! We will never choose to abandon ourselves!”
“Notify all living beings in the Immortal Heroic World… We vow to coexist with the Immortal Heroic World until death!”
…
To vow to coexist with the Immortal Heroic World until death…
It sounded nice, but no matter how many vows and how much determination there was, it couldn't erase the gap in strength, nor could it withstand the decline of the Immortal Heroic World…
The scenes of the impending war were almost unbearable for Wen Yu to witness…
To put it nicely, it was called struggling for survival; to put it bluntly, it was a group of the old, weak, sick, and disabled, lined up to be slaughtered by fully armed soldiers.
At that moment, in the Tenth Layer of the Heavenly Palace within the Outer Heaven, the eleventh level strongman of the Immortal Heroic World, Heavenly Dao, along with the Lord of the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance, Great Luo, faced the siege of hundreds of tenth level limit-breaking demonic entities, until they approached the end of their lives.
With the disappearance of the sovereign, Heavenly Dao didn’t even manage to become the first in the hierarchy before dying.
Likewise, until death, Heavenly Dao still remembered the entrustment of the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor and didn’t glance at the murals left by the immortal emperor even once…
Perhaps in memories that Wen Yu couldn’t explore, Heavenly Dao’s rebellious thoughts surged, quietly glancing at the murals left by the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor…
Who knows.
…
The scene slowly faded away, and Wen Yu's vision was fixed at the moment of Heavenly Dao’s death.
The lifeless eyes were filled with the struggle and despair of the last moments of life, as if silently accusing the heavens of their ruthlessness. Covered in blood and scars, along with the corpses surrounding him, Wen Yu had a deeper understanding of this apocalypse…
In his memories, the power of Heavenly Dao was simply unattainable for Wen Yu. With a wave of his hand, he could shatter space, and under full power, he could even make the heavens tremble. Yet, even so, he still died at the hands of the demonic clan!
Even more tragically, although the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor had long since understood the sovereign’s conspiracy and the truth of the apocalypse, he was struck down by the cruel reality, losing all composure, and until death, he still didn’t find a way to save the Immortal Heroic World, or even escape the sovereign’s control.
A strand of doubt surged in Wen Yu’s heart—if it were him, could he do better?
The answer was very certain, no!
Wen Yu had no confidence that he could do better than the Heaven-Piercing Immortal Emperor or even Heavenly Dao.
So, where exactly was the road ahead…
Thoughts surged in waves in his mind. After watching the memories of Heavenly Dao, Wen Yu not only failed to understand the truth, but he also fell into deeper confusion.
What exactly was the so-called truth, what was the true appearance of the sovereign, and what were the sovereign's true intentions.
Various thoughts tangled Wen Yu’s mind in chaos…
Until a low, warm calling voice echoed in his ear.
