Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao

Chapter 4864: Start of Collapse

Ling Han was completely uninterested.

In the past, he had been filled with anticipation for the Great Emperor Jingtian. He had promised him that they would fight side by side, but in the end, the latter had betrayed him without the slightest hesitation.

He was very displeased.

Ling Han nodded at the empress and the others. They set out and left, returning to Four Origin Planet.

Ling Han made some arrangements, then began to search for the Lords of Death.

However, after searching for a very, very long time, he still couldn’t find the whereabouts of the Lords of Death. It was as if they had disappeared from the face of the universe.

Unless!

With a thought, Ling Han arrived at the Primitive Abyss.

He entered, searching for any clues, and then confirmed it.

The Lords of Death had entered this place.

Previously, the Lords of Death were definitely curious about the changes in the Primitive Abyss. At least, they would have felt it was strange that the thirty-six Divine Beasts had appeared for no reason. However, because they still had their own goals, they did not have the time to come here to take a look.

However, things were different now.

They definitely couldn’t stay outside;how could Ling Han spare them?

Moreover, with Ling Han around, their plan definitely wouldn’t succeed.

Thus, they chose to enter the Primitive Abyss.

With how smart a Great Emperor was, how could it be that they wouldn’t be able to guess that the reason why Ling Han was so powerful was because it had something to do with the Primitive Abyss?

Since ancient times, among Great Emperors, who would lose to the other?

Thus, the Lords of Death placed their hopes on the Primitive Abyss, wanting to become even stronger.

Of course, they weren’t confident at all. This was a gamble. If they failed, their life force would be exhausted, and they would die in the abyss.

After all, the Primitive Abyss was full of dangers, and even if they entered at their peak, it was still possible that they would die.

The advantage now was that there were 12 of them.

A team of 12 Great Emperors charging into the Primitive Abyss was something that had never happened before.

Ling Han wasn’t in a hurry to give chase. He had to first deal with the hidden dangers outside.

He entered into the territory ruled by the Lords of Death, and began to recover the lost territory, star by star.

This time, there were no more Lords of Death making a comeback.

Ling Han, Ding Shu, Jing Haoran and Shui Qingchang all attacked, reviving the Living Realm and expelling evil.

More than a hundred years later, the entire Living Realm had already returned to how it had once been. Of course, the number of living creatures was still too far from what had once been.

It didn’t matter. Ling Han and the others were all Genesis World’s rulers, and there were a large number of living beings in the dimensions that could fill in the empty spaces, rapidly replenishing this world.

It was as if there was an invisible hand controlling the heaven and earth, maintaining the balance of this world.

Ling Han arrived at the edge of the Primitive Abyss. He observed the nine-star Regulations outside, and then comprehended them in the Primitive Abyss, saving as much time as he could. 𝙧ÃℕȰ𝖇Ěŝ

He wanted to cultivate the Nine Star Regulations to consummate level outside, and once his cultivation level was complete, he would go to the Imperial Island to further improve his cultivation level.

On the other hand, he was also standing guard here to prevent the Lords of Death from suddenly coming out and causing trouble.

Of course, this possibility was very small.

More than a hundred years had passed in the outside world, and over ten thousand years had passed in the Primitive Abyss. He was sure that those Lords of Death would have already arrived at the Imperial Island — if they hadn’t, they would definitely have died on their way there.

It was best if they had died on their jouney there, to avoid any side issues.

Everyone was making the best use of their time to cultivate, because after Ling Han entered the Primitive Abyss again, he would be staying inside for a very, very long time.

Thus, everyone wanted to become a Pseudo-Emperor, and take that last step on the Imperial Island.

As it turned out, everyone could become Emperor, and the majestic scene of the many Divine Beasts of the ancient era would reappear.

In theory, that was indeed the case, but in truth... how could it be so easy to become a Pseudo-Emperor?

Difficult, as difficult as ascending the heavens.

For example, the empress, Hu Niu, and the others. After arriving at the level of Nine-Star Saint, their cultivation level had stagnated. No matter what, they were unable to awaken their bodies, and step into Pseudo-Emperor Tier.

Not only them, but even the large black dog, the little azure dragon, and Brother Monkey were the same.

For more than a hundred years, only Ding Shu and the other Genesis World’s rulers were Pseudo-Emperors. Furthermore, they improved very quickly. They would occasionally enter into the Primitive Abyss to comprehend, and were getting closer and closer to the level of Nine Star Pseudo-Emperor.

Ling Han also frowned. Was it so difficult to become a Pseudo-Emperor?

However, Lu Xun, Yang Yihuan, and the others were only the sons of Great Emperors, so how could they all become Pseudo-Emperors?

Had they obtained some kind of treasure?

While Ling Han was cultivating, he also began to ponder.

On the Imperial Island, one’s lifespan was unlimited. Thus, Ling Han had to think of a way. Otherwise, in at most a million years, the empress and the others would die from having their lifespans exhausted.

This was something that he could not accept.

As a Great Emperor, could it be that he was destined to endure loneliness and solitude?

Another 600 years later, a boom suddenly rang out in the galaxy, and the whole firmament was trembling.

Ling Han was sitting at the entrance to the Primitive Abyss. He immediately stood up and looked into the distance.

The Primitive Abyss was indeed at the edge of the universe. However, this wasn’t the absolute end;it was a bit further ahead.

That was because the universe was constantly expanding outwards, and the Primitive Abyss was also slowly moving outwards.

However, at this moment, this expansion suddenly stopped.

The collapse of the universe was about to begin.

Ling Han could clearly see that the edges of the universe were no longer extending outwards, but had rather stopped. That massive boom previously was precisely the movement that had stopped here.

For who knew how many years, the universe had been slowly expanding, as if there would never be an end to it.

But now, the expansion had ended, and the collapse was about to begin.

In just a short while, Ling Han saw that the edge of the universe was beginning to shrink back at a slow speed. Just like how this heaven and earth had spent hundreds of billions of years to reach this step, even if it ultimately had to retreat to a point, it would still need a long time.

’Hmm?’

Ling Han was astonished. He saw that as heaven and earth shrank, the Regulations were also being compressed.

These Regulations were preventing the heaven and earth from shrinking, but Regulations were only manifestations of heaven and earth, so how could they possibly resist this kind of great power?

Peng! Peng! Peng!

The Regulations had shattered, and were incredibly fragile.

However, after the Regulations shattered, they reformed and continued to resist, repeating the same cycle.

The Regulations existed to balance the heaven and earth, and stabilize the heaven and earth. Thus, now that the heaven and earth was shrinking, the Regulations would bear the brunt.

Ling Han was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Regulations were destroying and condensing in front of him like this. It was like they were showing him the core secrets, and it was done over and over again, as if they were afraid that he would not be able to see or understand them.

In this way, the time for him to fully grasp the Nine Stars Regulations would be greatly shortened.

Unfortunately, only he could enjoy this kind of benefit. Even Pseudo-Emperors could not. They could only observe the Nine Star Regulations at the moment their bodies were reviving.

Ling Han’s strength began to rapidly increase. His grasp of Regulations improved by leaps and bounds.

Three hundred years later, Ling Han had more or less mastered the Nine Star Regulations. At most, in another ten years, he would be able to reach consummate level.

Now, his battle prowess had definitely advanced into the fourth tier.

And on the matter of the empress and the others, he had also come up with an idea, but whether it could be realized or not, he would only know after trying.
