305: Chapter 310: From the Great Primordial Mine 305: Chapter 310: From the Great Primordial Mine “In an era where two Great Emperors were born, who exactly engaged in a life-and-death battle with Hengyu Great Emperor?” Tu Fei didn’t believe it.
From ancient times to the present, there had never been two Great Emperors born in the same era; ancient books held no such records.
The Big Black Dog said, “There are always some matters forgotten by history.
They aren’t seen by the world, and even if they were once earth-shattering, no traces of them remain.” “What are you talking about?
Did two Great Emperors really meet in the same era?
Who was weaker, who was stronger, and what was the result?” Tu Fei was eager to know.
“Naturally, Hengyu Great Emperor survived.
That battle had a significant impact; otherwise, it’s hard to say what might have happened.” The blazing sun hung high in the sky.
The desert, seemingly formed from molten gold, was unbearably hot.
There wasn’t a breath of wind, nor a single cloud in sight.
The scorching, golden sand grains were somewhat dazzling.
“What exactly happened back then?
Hurry up and tell us,” Ye Fan also urged.
This boundless desert stretched for an unknown number of thousands of miles.
It had been created by a single strike from Hengyu Great Emperor’s Taiyang God Furnace!
It was hard to imagine what kind of heaven-shattering, earth-destroying power that must have been.
“What was the title of the other Great Emperor?” Tu Fei continued to ask.
“No one knows, because it was not a person, but its strength definitely rivaled that of a Great Emperor!” the Big Black Dog replied.
“What?
Not a person?
Then what on earth was it?
Could it have been an ancient emperor of the demon clan?” “It’s uncertain what it was, but it was definitely one of the most powerful beings in this world,” the Big Black Dog said in a deep voice.
Ye Fan and Tu Fei both wanted to kick it.
The Big Black Dog spoke slowly, making them anxious, yet it remained calm and unperturbed.
“Spit it out all at once!” “You two better show some respect!
Just because this Emperor doesn’t show my might, you take me for a sick cat?
Even sovereigns wouldn’t dare to disrespect me!” “Oh, keep boasting!
When you saw the Crimson Dragon Daoist, who was it that fled dozens of miles in one breath?
And when you heard the Peacock King was ing, who was it that turned tail and ran at the mere rumor?” “Those were different times,” the Big Black Dog answered sheepishly.
“A being that rivals a Great Emperor, where did it e from?
Don’t tell me it crossed over from the starry sky?” Ye Fan frowned.
“Let me be clear, those Pre-Qin Qi Refiners you speak of truly cannot pare to a Great Emperor.
The being that engaged in a life-and-death battle with a Great Emperor was born right here in the Northern Territory.” Ye Fan and Tu Fei exchanged a glance, both simultaneously thinking of a particular place, their hearts pounding.
“Are you suggesting…” “You’re not too dull after all; you finally figured it out.
Yes, that supreme powerhouse parable to a Great Emperor came from the Taichu Forbidden Area!” The Big Black Dog’s words were earth-shattering, causing waves to rise in their hearts.
This revelation was extremely astonishing.
“Are you…
sure?” Tu Fei was dumbfounded.
“This place is countless miles from the Taichu Forbidden Area.
Why did a great battle happen here?” Ye Fan also questioned.
The Big Black Dog said, “Back then, Hengyu Great Emperor astounded the world.
To forge his peak weapon, he entered the Taichu Forbidden Area and engaged in a great slaughter there…” Ye Fan’s heart skipped a beat.
He had seen that place with his own eyes.
Piles and heaps of skeletons lay there.
Even though tens of thousands of years had passed, hundreds of skeletons still shimmered; they were undoubtedly terrifying creatures.
“When Hengyu Great Emperor successfully forged his peak weapon, heaven and earth trembled.
Everyone in the Northern Territory could sense it, alarming all living beings.” It was on that very day, as Hengyu Great Emperor was leaving the Taichu Forbidden Area, that a being parable to him pursued him out.
“You’re not going to tell us that the being was chased out of the ancient mine, are you?” The Big Black Dog replied grimly, “You guessed right.
According to the investigations of a sage from a later generation, it was indeed a being from the ancient mine.” Ye Fan was inparably shocked; the Taichu Forbidden Area and the ancient mine were two different concepts!
He had observed the Great Primordial Mine from afar.
The sheer terror emanating from it had made him suspect that gods resided within, and rumors also spoke of Holy Spirits dwelling there.
On that dark night, Li Desheng, with his Yin Ming Eyes, had seen many unusual things.
Looking back now, it still felt otherworldly.
Beneath the cascading silver river of starlight falling from the sky, corpses clad in ancient garments drifted, bathed in the sacred stellar radiance, acpanied by countless points of light.
This was but the tip of the iceberg, the outermost, delicate veil of the ancient mine.
What truly lay inside, no one could explain.
“A being capable of rivaling a Great Emperor, originating from the Great Primordial Mine…” Tu Fei murmured, somewhat dazed.
“You are wrong; it wasn’t human,” the Big Black Dog corrected.
“Then do you know what it was?
Aren’t there legends that the ancient mine contains Immortals?
Could it have been them?” Ye Fan asked.
The Big Black Dog shook its head.
“Some say it was an ancient creature, some say Immortals, others claim Holy Spirits, and even ancient people.
There are too many rumors, all unclear and unexplainable.” “How long did Hengyu Great Emperor battle it?” Ye Fan queried, rather concerned about this point.
“The battle lasted a very long time.
It is said that on that day, only three sages in the entire Northern Territory sensed the Supreme Emperor’s Might.
According to their accounts, the very firmament of the Northern Territory trembled from the force of their battle, yet everyone else remained pletely unaware.” “Is this the Supreme Great Emperor’s Immortal Power?
To think it reached such an extent and could still conceal it from everyone…” Tu Fei was stunned.
The Big Black Dog said, “Based on a notebook left behind by a sage, Hengyu Great Emperor had indeed met his match; otherwise, he wouldn’t have accidentally created such a boundless desert with a misfired blow.” “Did Hengyu Great Emperor kill the being that chased him from the Great Primordial Mine?” Ye Fan questioned.
“Killed.
After a life-and-death duel, it was struck down here by Hengyu Great Emperor and refined into ashes,” the Big Black Dog said, looking towards the boundless desert.
“A being parable to a Great Emperor, yet it ended up pletely annihilated…” This was world-shaking news, leaving Tu Fei stunned and lost in thought.
Now, the Great Emperors were long gone, unreachable.
Once, there were battles between Great Emperors.
But now, not even a trace of them could be seen.
It truly made one sigh in lament.
“The being who came out of the Great Primordial Mine was parable to a Great Emperor.
Its Demon Blood stained the desert red.
Its weapon shattered here, scattering across the land and forming broken Dao Glyphs.
That’s how this demonic and eerie place known as the Divine Desert was formed.” “So that’s how it was formed…” Tu Fei’s heart and spirit were deeply moved; the Big Black Dog knew so much, things that even the Sacred Lands might not be aware of.
“How do you know the secrets of the Great Emperors?” Ye Fan asked.
“This Emperor is well-versed in all knowledge, ancient and modern, from the Ancient Desolation to the eternal future, there is nothing I do not prehend!” The Big Black Dog tilted its head and looked elsewhere.
“This truly is…
it feels like a dream!” Tu Fei sighed, finding it unbelievable.
He said, “That was a being who came out of the Great Primordial Mine!
You know, that Forbidden Area has existed eternally.
It has produced countless extraordinary geniuses throughout history, yet no one could overe it.
However, a supreme existence that emerged from there was destroyed by Hengyu Great Emperor.
The Emperor’s Might is truly unfathomable!” This was indeed shocking.
With no records in the annals, it was hard to believe.
“Has there been no movement from the Great Primordial Mine?
Having a supreme entity destroyed, there should have been some response, right?” Ye Fan asked.
“These are things beyond what later generations could know.
Even the sages of that era couldn’t fathom it,” the Big Black Dog shook its head.
“Surely there are some theories?
Didn’t anything particularly notable happen later?” Ye Fan felt there should be some clues.
“After that, Hengyu Great Emperor never again set foot within a five hundred thousand-mile radius of the Taichu Forbidden Area for the rest of his life.” “So, that’s how it was…” Tu Fei was aghast; even a Great Emperor had such reservations.
The Big Black Dog thought for a moment and said, “There’s another legend.
After that battle, Hengyu Great Emperor established his Dao tradition and went directly to the Central States, never to return.” “What exactly is in the Great Primordial Mine that even a Great Emperor would be so wary of?!” Ye Fan was startled.
“The third version is that after the battle, Hengyu Great Emperor came alone to the edge of the Taichu Forbidden Area, municated with the ancient mine, and reached some kind of agreement.
Later, in less than ten years, he founded the Jiang Family and then pletely disappeared.” “What is the truth then?” Both Tu Fei and Ye Fan harbored doubts, unable to understand.
These events were far too ancient; even finding legends about them was difficult, let alone verifying them and restoring the truth.
The Big Black Dog sighed, “Thinking back to the ancient Great Emperors, all of them acplished world-shaking feats.
Their supreme bearing is not something ordinary people can fathom.
Books written by later generations only contain fragments; no one truly understands them.” “Eh, have we made it out?
There are giant stones in the distance!” Tu Fei exclaimed.
Just on the horizon of the desert, the faint outlines of two massive stones were visible.
“Finally, some different scenery!
This Emperor was genuinely afraid of being trapped for another hundred years or so.” The Big Black Dog had lingering fears from past experiences.
The two men and the dog quickly ran forward.
They didn’t want to stay in this scorching desert a moment longer, leaving a long trail of footprints in the sand.
“These are blocks of black metal!” When they rushed closer, they were all greatly surprised.
Both pieces of metal were five or six meters long and pletely pitch black, with a dim sheen.
They emitted a chill that made one feel cold even under the scorching midday sun.
The black metal pieces were full of pits and dents; many places looked as if they had been struck and indented by palms and fingers.
“How can there be such metal blocks?” Tu Fei was surprised.
At the same time, Ye Fan noticed that this patch of sand was different from other places; it was blood-red, as if dyed with blood, and exuded a chilling aura.
The Big Black Dog said, “This red desert must have been dyed by the blood of that being parable to a Great Emperor.
Even after hundreds of thousands of years, its color still hasn’t changed.” “In that case, these metal blocks must be…” Tu Fei was astonished.
“Yes, they are most likely two pieces of that being’s weapon, shattered by Hengyu Great Emperor and fallen here.” The Big Black Dog’s eyes filled with a fiery light as it rushed quickly towards them.
CLANG!
It struck with all its might, but the black metal block remained motionless, emitting a resonant, reverberating sound, like the tolling of a great bell.
“These must be fragments of that being’s weapon!” the Big Black Dog shouted.
Tu Fei also came forward and struck it with force.
His hands went numb, but he was unable to leave even a scratch on it.
“They’re not parable to the holy divine relics of a Great Emperor, but they are definitely top-grade refining materials,” the Big Black Dog said.
The nature of these black metal blocks was unknown; even the widely knowledgeable Big Black Dog could not identify them.
But one thing was certain: this material was extremely precious, and its hardness was astonishing.
“Even various Great Saints wouldn’t ignore such a thing if they saw it.” Tu Fei and the Big Black Dog stepped forward, the man and the dog each taking one piece.
BOOM!
Heaven and earth shook.
The instant the black metal blocks were taken, the void itself trembled violently, and the surrounding landscape underwent a drastic transformation.
