Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The incident of the Eastern Tomb caused a great deal of commotion in this area. The Eastern Tomb was forced open by the Blackmetal Sword Emperor, the inheritances collapsed, the Holy Book and holy will vanished.

The Blackmetal Sword Emperor fought against several immortal emperors but he was still alive and fled with injuries. In fact, he even injured three other immortal emperors, causing many to be shocked. A raging wind kicked up in the Eastern Tomb Immortal City. The Blackmetal Sword Emperor had sealed himself within the Eastern Tomb and his strength had improved tremendously.

Other than this, this incident caused the deaths of many experts. Among them, a peak-stage immortal king saint child character had also died. This wasn’t a minor matter, and caused a huge commotion within the Sacred Sun Sect. They started to investigate this matter and eventually realized that the killer was none other than Qin Wentian from the eastern regions.

They instantly gave the order to arrest Qin Wentian and even spread this news to the Eastern Sage Immortal Emperor, causing Eastern Sage to bristle with anger. Back then on the Demongod Mountain, Qin Wentian actually survived after that strike and was now living carefreely, running all the way to the central regions.

As for the Evergreen Immortal Empire and the Thousand Transformations Immortal Sect, they all heaved a sigh of relief when they heard this news while silently musing how tough Qin Wentian’s fate was. Ever since his disappearance at the Demongod Mountain, no one knew his whereabouts. To think that after killing a saint child of the Sacred Sun Sect at the Demongod Mountain, he now killed even more of their disciples and yet another saint child. He was truly like the plague to his enemies, bringing storms of blood everywhere he went.

However, just as many people were searching for Qin Wentian’s traces, Qin Wentian once again disappeared completely. The central regions were just too vast, even for immortal emperors, it would be like looking for a needle inside a haystack if they wanted to specifically search for someone, let alone trying to search for someone like Qin Wentian who had already concealed his identity.

Naturally, although this news caused plenty of commotion, it was still a minor matter in the perspective of the entire immortal realms. Right now, the attention of most experts were still on the demonic beasts from the Desolate Mountain Range. They started to permeate the human world, starting from the northern regions as they continued expanding, creating sects in human territory. They wanted to make the entire immortal realms the territory of the Desolate Mountain Range, and wanted greater authority than the humans.

There were some powers in the immortal realms who stood up to resist, but they were soon suppressed by the terrifying advance of the royal greater demons from the Desolate Mountains. These powers who resisted were all wiped up and disintegrated. Those royal demons were simply too powerful and frightening. Also, this was merely the strength they showed on the surface. With their base back in the Desolate Mountain Range, nobody knew how strong they were exactly.

The peak powers of the immortal realms, all remained silent, as though silently agreeing to the invasion by the demons. Hence, in the immortal realms from the north to the south, numerous demon-based powers sprang up.

These royal greater demons were simply too terrifying, especially after they were baptized by the Demongod Mountain. Their strength had explosively increased due to the upgrade in their bloodline abilities, which granted them increased combat prowess. They even dared to stand against those strongest peak geniuses in the immortal realms, and the number of peak-level demons was far more than peak-level humans.

The Desolate Mountain Range that was silent and low-profile for a long time, suddenly erupted forth within a single day, their influence seeking to reach the entire immortal realms.

However, with regards to all of this, Qin Wentian had no idea at all.

Back then when he killed the saint child of the Sacred Sun Sect, he already understood that the Sacred Sun Sect would definitely investigate his identity. With his features being exposed, how hard would it be to find out who he is? The news that he was still alive would soon circulate out and Eastern Sage, as well as his other enemies, would definitely come to hunt him down. But even so, upon learning of his news, his kin and friends would be able to heave a sigh of relief that he was still living.

Now, he had entered a vast mountain range and was cultivating in seclusion.

When he was in the Eastern Tomb, he perused the Holy Book and gained comprehension of the holy will, receiving many insights. Although he managed to form nine-strands of holy sword intent, it was still far from sufficient as he was still unable to digest the remaining of his comprehensions. As a result, he decided to spend a total of five years in closed-door seclusion, in quiet focus as he left the mortal world behind. action

During these five years, Qin Wentian’s strength improved a lot as his comprehensions gradually deepened. The toughness of his body grew stronger and his cultivation level at the mid-stage of the immortal king realm also became more stable, smoothly entering the late-phase of the mid-stage. If he encountered Mo Lanshan once again, Qin Wentian believed that he would be able to defeat his opponent without being so heavily injured like in the past.

Similarly, during these five years, the change to the immortal realms were also exceedingly great.

Qin Wentian finally stood up after five years. After he donned the mask Feng Qianxue manufactured for him, he wore the robes and carried the saber and sword she made on his back. After he made his way out of the mountains, he realized that the central regions of the immortal realms had undergone a huge transformation. In a short five years, the greater demons of the Desolate Mountain Range had extended their forces to all regions in the immortal realms.

Simply too quick. A mere five years was a short period of time that could pass in the blink of an eye in one bout of closed-door seclusion. The external world had turned topsy-turvy, and when Qin Wentian casually passed by a city, he could see many different types of demonic beasts within, acting extremely arrogantly.

In the eastern oceans, there was a city named Gazing Emperor City. It was extremely prosperous with as many experts as the clouds. Countless geniuses were gathered there, and it wasn’t under the jurisdiction of any of the peak power yet it contains many immortal emperors. In this city, many extraordinary figures could often be seen. One can say that in the entire central regions, the Gazing Emperor City was the city with the most number of immortal kings and emperors.

There was no other reason, other than the fact that this city was located on the shore of the eastern seas, and one has to pass by here if they wanted to soar through the air of the eastern oceans to reach the City of Ancient Emperors.

This was also how the name, ‘Gazing Emperor City,’ came about.

Today, within Gazing Emperor City, a mysterious young man with a sword and a saber strapped behind his back could be seen walking on the streets. His clothes were of the simple style, and there was no aura radiating from him at all, as though he was one with the heavens. Within his deep eyes, a bright gleam could be seen occasionally, stirring the hearts of people.

This man was extremely handsome, yet he gave off a deep and obscure feeling to people, radiating a special illusory mysteriousness.

This man, was naturally none other than Qin Wentian.

“I’ve finally arrived.” Qin Wentian glanced at the people within Gazing Emperor City as he murmured in a low voice. His target was the City of Ancient Emperors and on his journey to this point, his strength has risen a lot. He had never tarried before with regards to practicing cultivation. With so many experts targeting him, Qin Wentian constantly felt a strong sense of crisis which forced him to upgrade his strength as soon as possible. “RUMBLE!” The earth trembled violently. Qin Wentian turned his eyes over only to see that in a certain direction, quite a few greater demons were walking tyrannically down a street. These were all Kui Oxen, their bodies were extremely gigantic and they radiated a sense of malevolence. When they walked, they left behind large cracks on the ground. Nobody dared to obstruct their path.

“Scram.” A Kui Ox roared, the volume causing the eardrums of some of the weaker humans to bleed. For those more frail ones, they were actually directly flung through the air from the impact of that roar, suffering heavy injuries. These Kui Oxen had no one in their eyes, behaving extremely tyrannically.

Qin Wentian frowned. When the Kui Oxen walked past, they caused an uproar from the surroundings.

“Kui Oxen are also a type of saint beast. They have entered the City of Ancient Emperors too? Are the skies changing here?” Someone spoke.

“The greater demons from the Desolate Mountain Range are paying close attention to a few critical places. One of these places is none other than the city of ancient emperors.”

“That’s right, the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy appeared in the immortal realms, while the Demongod Mountain appeared in the Desolate Mountains. Everyone is claiming that a new era is coming, and most probably, numerous extraordinary geniuses would appear. Right now, there are many who want to compete for the position of number one, becoming the most dazzling character that could defeat all others in the world. Only then, would that character have a chance to become the king of the new era.”

The City of Ancient Emperors has always been a place where geniuses competed with each other. Countless experts would head there, and now, they are joined by the many types of saint beasts and greater demons.

“The demonic beasts are so tyrannical, completely looking down on humans. Why does everyone have no reactions, and are even talking about this approaching new era.” A young man coldly interjected, breaking the discussion of the crowd. The crowd turned their gazes to the young man. This young man was dressed in white and looked very young. There was also a very young girl about 15 to 16 of age next to him, she had bright eyes and perfect teeth, exuding a pure and innocent aura yet a hint of sadness could be seen in her eyes.

“Brother, things are different now. Right now, the demonic beasts reign supreme in the immortal realms. The peak powers all remain silent, how would there be anyone else who dares to speak up?” Somebody sighed.

“It’s not that we are cold-blooded. But for those saint-beast greater demons, their strengths are truly extraordinary. Even the emperor-ranked powers don’t dare to voice out their unhappiness, what else can we do...?”

“You are wrong, humans still can compete with the demons. Don’t forget that there are countless humans in the city that will head to the Ancient Emperor Palace and use the Emperor’s Eye to gauge their talent, determining who is the strongest.” Someone added.

“Ancient Emperor Palace.” Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed when he heard this location. In his map, he had seen an indication about the Ancient Emperor Palace in the Gazing Emperor City. It was rumored that that was a location where ancient emperors once resided. It was the central core of the ancient emperor’s empire and that place was used to test for the talents of geniuses around the immortal realms.

Many historical remains and items within the palace have long been plundered clean by people, only leaving behind the majestic palace itself. However, there was another object that still remained. This was something no one could bring away, a treasure named the ‘Emperor’s Eye.’

There were many rumors regarding the Emperor’s Eye. Some said that it was made from the eye of a true ancient emperor. Some said that this item was formed from their powerful will. Even more people felt that it was something forged and refined by the ancient emperors themselves and contained the power of boundless transformations.

Currently, the Emperor’s Eye was the tool used to gauge a person’s talent. Many geniuses, before they entered the City of Ancient Emperors, would first pay a visit to the Ancient Emperor Palace to test their talent.

“Seems like you guys have grown numb to it. How sad, the demonic beasts are trampling over humanity, and the number of innocent deaths are climbing every day. However, the cultivators of my generation don’t even dare to resist or say anything against the demons. This is truly a humiliation.” That white-robed young man spoke in rage.

“You would dare to resist them?” Someone mocked.

“Little brother, let me persuade you not to talk nonsense. The immortal realms at present isn’t the same as the immortal realms in the past.” Another person spoke in a sinister tone.

“Has humanity fallen so low? How lamentable, having to bow down to the demons.” That young man sighed with sorrow. The young girl beside him also had grief on her face, their family members died precisely in the hands of demonic beasts. They naturally had great hatred towards these demons from the Desolate Mountain Range.

“Pu!” At this moment, terrifying claws drilled into the chest of that young man, digging out his heart. That person who spoke earlier lunged over as his form changed back into a demonic beast. It was actually a demonic beast in human form!

Everyone retreated. As expected, these demons were testing them. If one spoke nonsense, they would die undoubtedly.

“Elder brother!” That young girl screamed in misery, turning incomparably pale.

Qin Wentian who was not far away, trembled with rage as his eyes flashed with a cold killing intent when he saw that. He had heard much news on his journey here and knew that right now, demonic beasts of the Desolate Mountains have already extended their reach to the immortal realms, seizing the territory of humans and opening up their own sects and factions. They are arrogant and despotic, but he didn’t expect that they would be so tyrannical to this extent.
