The Sims: I Open the Immortal Path for All Beings

Chapter 2121: Chapter 2066–2067: The Fire Emperor Enters the Sea Realm, the Demonic Shadow Emerges (Part 2)

A multitude of Supreme Overlords who have hidden from the world, even after years of seclusion, still wield immense influence. It can even be said that they are the pinnacle of power in the entire sea realm, second only to the most ancient kings of the ancient clans. Although they have not established an Imperial Dynasty, their influence is no less than some imperial rulers. Now, they have emerged one after another, reversing certain trends and quelling numerous questions within the hearts of powerful beings.

“As the bloodline of the Red Emperor, the Fire Emperor bears the glory of the Emperor Monarch. His arrival at the sea realm bears no intention of domination, but merely to pacify a disturbance.” The Ancient Wood King sat quietly atop a blue boulder, wisdom flowing in his eyes. Despite his old appearance, his face is as flush as a baby’s, exuding amiability. He is an ancient king who once ventured beyond the heavens with the human race. Although he never established a tribe, he holds immense influence, and many follow in his footsteps.

Speaking of the current situation, his face showed a heavy expression; even he felt the arrival of the disturbance.

“The Five Emperors left their legacy back in the day, so that we may endure forever. Whoever wishes to destroy the Pure Land of the human race must first contend with my Heavenly Fire Blade!” The Heavenly Fire King gripped the Divine Saber, his Saber Intent piercing the sky and solemnly declared, his voice still carrying the spirit of earlier days.

“As time quietly passes by, with the flourishing of the human race, some people, some hearts have long lost themselves and fallen. They have disappointed the Emperor Monarch’s expectations. We once fought to establish a foundation for the human race, not to make the race a mere stepping stone for some.” Colorful Robed Immortal, clad in divine garments with slender legs and flowing hair, recalled the past and spoke softly.

Legend has it that the divine garment she wore was forged by an Emperor Monarch from Divine Gold, now emanating brilliance that seemed to cover the sky, devouring the Four Seas. It is a Treasure, imbued with the Emperor Monarch’s will, terrifying to behold.

Divine Gold gleamed, free of dust, as the Colorful Robed Goddess stood quietly atop a jade stone. Her deep eyes seemed to see the days of old when the Emperor Monarch led them in suppressing the Demon Race, guiding the human race to its peak. In her youth, her tribe was wiped out by the Demon Race, but she was saved by the Emperor Monarch, who taught her literacy and cultivation, even personally forging a divine garment for her as protection.

“No one is allowed to defy the Emperor Monarch’s will. The sea realm is the paradise left to the human race by the Emperor, the final Holy Land belonging to humans. No one can destroy it. Should anyone conspire with the Demonic Way, harming their kin, I shall grind them into dust,” the Colorful Robed Goddess said, turning away with tears in her eyes. Since the destruction of her tribe, she had only shed tears once, during the Emperor Monarch’s passing.

Observing the current plight of the human race, which the Emperor Monarch had poured his heart into, and witnessing former comrades who fought alongside her fall and lose themselves, she was plunged into confusion. Is longevity truly so tempting?

For the sake of longevity, can one abandon past ideals and aspirations, relinquish former glory, and even hold a knife to those they once protected?

She did not understand.

One by one, kings manifested, ancient existences emerged, as if a splash of cold water had been poured onto the hearts of countless strong beings, restoring calm and prompting them to quietly reassess past thoughts.

However, at this moment, discordant voices emerged in certain places, disrupting the situation and exacerbating the sea realm’s conflict to a level of intense confrontation, making peace impossible, only resolvable through war.

“The affairs of the sea realm must ultimately rely on ourselves to resolve. Even the Five Divine Dynasties cannot interfere with sea realm matters, as it would desecrate our dignity.” The Chenyu Ancestor came forth from seclusion, eyes burning with the fire of anger, suppressing hatred in his heart, speaking with a deep voice.

With the fall of the King of Chenyu, the strength of the Chenyu Empire was significantly weakened instantly. Now, the Red Flame Divine Blade gathered many strong beings, and even he did not dare to venture lightly for fear of disaster, as he had been one of those stirring up the storm in the shadows in the past.

The Chenyu Ancestor recounted various hidden matters, even suggesting that the appearance of the Fire Emperor was a conspiracy from the beginning. The Red Flame Ancestor and the Fire Emperor had been colluding long before, only seeking to pacify overseas, eliminate dissent, and slay all strong beings not in accord with their will, thereby dividing the spoils.

If not for the presence of Emperor Huo Xi, who still respected the authority of the Red Emperor, he might even dare to claim this as a conspiracy from the Red Emperor Lineage, aiming to grasp authority alone.

Truth and falsehood intertwined, as many strong beings, due to originating from the sea realm, felt a natural aversion to the strong ones of the Five Divine Dynasties. The more strong individuals who supported the Fire Emperor, the more dissatisfied they became.

The ambiguous truths recounted by Chenyu Ancestor made many strong beings choose to believe, even developing some repulsion towards the Fire Emperor’s appearance, claiming that it was indeed the intervention of the Fire Emperor and the Five Divine Dynasties that brought disaster upon the sea realm, shattering its former tranquility and plunging it into chaos.

Some agitated strong ones even shouted slogans to drive the Fire Emperor out of the sea realm, yet more strong beings, including some powerful tribes, fell into silence, saying nothing, as if quietly waiting for the curtain to fall, or watching the scene like a play.

The turmoil continued, and every strong being felt it, sensing the oppressive atmosphere of the coming storm. Pairs of eyes turned to this realm, observing the tides of fate.

Meanwhile, at a certain Divine Island within the sea realm, no abnormalities appeared from the outside. But upon stepping past the barrier, one would find it filled with wisps of pitch-black Demonic Energy, shrouding the entire island.

The figures of the White Bone Demon, Shadow Demon, Dark Demon, Cold Ice Demon, Bloodthirsty Demon, Slaughter Demon, Devouring Demon, and others manifested, each a terrifying demon, cruel and bloodthirsty, slaughtering everywhere, shaking human hearts.

Some human kings closed themselves here, not rejecting this demonic energy but choosing to cultivate Demonic Path Divine Powers. Marks of demonic origin gradually emerged at their brows, and even their Primordial Qi became tainted by demonic energy.

At first, they chose to hunt demon spirits for practice. But as time passed, when they could not resist turning against their own kin, killing strong beings of the human race in the sea realm, absorbing the essence of their blood, and even devouring Primordial Spirits, they found the benefits to be greater, and could no longer refuse.

They continually betrayed and slaughtered kin, honing their Demon Dao Artifacts, gradually forging some powerful Demon Artifacts, greatly enhancing their combat strength.

Yin Demon Sail, Black Demon Blade, and other Demon Artifacts, each is a killer in the Demonic Way, said to be Demon Dao Artifacts forged by numerous Demon Path True Immortals, even Taoist Monarchs of the legend, ruthless and fierce, possessing endless divine abilities and powers, intimidating the Ten Directions.

One strong being after another became powerful rapidly, especially with demonic techniques to seize creation and extend life. Some tribe ancestors nearing the end of their lifespan fell into depravity, cultivating Demonic Path Divine Powers, attempting to take that final step, to ascend to a higher realm in one leap.

Initially, there were few strong beings practicing Demon Way, and perhaps it could be concealed. However, as more people disappeared, the Divine Islands became panicked.

Demonic Energy ran rampant, with some Supreme Strong cultivating Demonic Path Divine Powers, refining Demon Dao Artifacts, slaughtering Divine Islands, blood-sacrificing the world, thus forging their Demon Dao Treasures, enhancing their power.

That day, three Supreme Strong filled with rising Demonic Energy descended upon Green Jade Divine Island, each being a fallen human ancestor, all circulating with a dense, bloody aura of slaughter, like demons walking from Hell, like devils emerging from the Underworld.
