With the true rise of the human race, unafraid of all, the Heaven's Prides of the various Heavenly Emperor Clans, Immortal Clans, and others were all expelled from the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum, no longer permitted to cultivate and comprehend the Dao within.
The vacated spots were selected from among the various imperial clans, king clans, and the Chaos Heavenly Mansion of the human race.
Now, more and more Heaven's Prides were entering to cultivate and comprehend the Dao. Without exception, those selected possessed high comprehension and saw their cultivation advance by leaps and bounds.
Even some of the older generation used the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum to break through their previous shackles, becoming supreme powerhouses of a higher level.
This made the human race increasingly rich in talent, striding toward its peak.
Furthermore, a vast training ground had been specially opened in the depths of the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum. During ordinary times, when Heaven's Prides awakened from their Dao comprehension, they would often spar and compete on this training plaza, digesting the insights gained.
Exciting battles were frequently held, serving as a pleasant diversion in the otherwise monotonous cultivation, much favored by the many human Heaven's Prides.
Thus, the training ground was usually quite lively.
On the training plaza, figures like the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, Will, and Shan Ji occasionally appeared, offering guidance to these human Heaven's Prides who had emerged from their cultivation.
Although the three were usually sloppy and carefree, they were quite reliable when it came to tempering these human Heaven's Prides, thus enjoying considerable prestige among them.
On this day, the three were looking at the Battle Saint King seated in the deepest part of the Star Sky, showing a trace of worry. "Little Yue, oh Little Yue, it's been a year and a half. If you don't come out of seclusion soon, you'll really miss the final trial."
"Lord Dragon Emperor, Lord Battle Saint King has been in seclusion for a year and a half. There's less than a month left until the deadline for the final trial. Do you know when he will emerge?"
Hearing the voice suddenly sound from behind, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor was slightly startled. Seeing it was several of the human race's rather outstanding Heaven's Prides, he clasped his hands behind his back, looked up at the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body in the deepest part of the Star Sky, and said, "Don't worry, this guy will definitely emerge."
"Lord Dragon Emperor, why are you so confident in Lord Battle Saint King?" the others asked in a puzzled tone. Breaking through to Quasi-Monarch required seclusion. Even though they knew the Battle Saint King was heaven-defying, he still needed sufficient time for accumulation, at least several decades or even a century.
"Because he is the Battle Saint King!"
Simple, and equally certain.
Because he was the Battle Saint King, the one he was familiar with, so he believed.
The others were taken aback. Just as they were about to ask further, suddenly, this expanse of Star Sky sank and solidified. An intangible, terrifying Oppressive Might slowly began to overflow, causing the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor, Will, and Shan Ji to change expressions. They glanced at each other, soared into the sky, and shouted, "All of you, return immediately! Head to the other supreme powerhouses' tombs at once and prepare to activate the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum grand formation!"
The might of this Oppressive Might was so great that even they felt an indescribably dreadful sense of pressure, suspecting a powerful enemy might be attacking.
However, at this moment, the Corpse Devouring Insect Emperor suddenly looked toward the deepest part of the Star Sky at the small, seated figure, exclaiming in surprise, "Could it be—"
Will and Shan Ji also looked at the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body.
"What's happening? What's going on?"
The sudden, terrifying Oppressive Might caused quite a commotion on the training ground. The many human Heaven's Prides and older generation figures cultivating within the Heaven-Fall Mausoleum were all startled awake, accompanied by murmurs and whispers.
At this time, Will spoke with authority, "Everyone, calm down. Do not worry. It is not an enemy attack."
The three all looked toward the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body in the deepest part of the Star Sky, for at this moment, the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body, which had been eternally still, was slowly beginning to move.
Although the movements were subtle, they were no ordinary figures and naturally detected it.
"Could it be—"
They all revealed—
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The commotion naturally attracted the attention of the many powerhouses within the entire human Emperor Realm. Immediately, numerous powerful figures soared into the sky from below, finally entering the Star Sky and looking toward its deepest part.
They vaguely seemed to sense a vast, world-shaking, terrifying aura slowly reviving, like an ancient true dragon that had slumbered for countless millennia awakening.
The terrifying Oppressive Might slowly rippled out, eventually covering the entire expanse of Star Sky, causing all the stars to tremble in unison.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Finally, the human race's Ten Emperor Sons and Daughters appeared, and Quasi-Monarchs like Qin Wu, Di Qiong, and Xiao Ding emerged one after another, showing astonishment.
"This aura is incredibly powerful, perhaps not much weaker than the Qin Family's Martial God. Could it be the Battle Saint King has broken through to Quasi-Monarch?"
These human Quasi-Monarchs all revealed shock one by one.
Hum—
The overwhelming Oppressive Might was rapidly retracting at an astonishing speed, finally pouring back into the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body in the deepest part of the Star Sky.
At this moment, the eternally unmoving Great Emperor Reincarnation Body suddenly opened its eyes. Two beams of light capable of piercing the heavens soared upward, piercing through numerous stars and shattering the firmament.
Simultaneously, from the crown of the Great Emperor Reincarnation Body's head, an extremely terrifying light pillar suddenly shot into the sky. Accompanied by the eruption of supremely dazzling radiance, it charged toward the six directions and eight extremes, carrying billowing ancient chaos energy.
Finally, as this Chaos Light Pillar bloomed in that instant, piercing into the clouds above, numerous terrifying Chaos Holy Spirits descended from the sky as if paying homage to the supreme deity of the world.
Furthermore, phantom images of the worlds and heavens of the All Heavens appeared, floating and sinking as if all the myriad realms had manifested simultaneously, revolving around the Chaos Light Pillar as thick as a mountain range.
This Chaos Light Pillar was like the core pillar of the myriad realms, the sole entity spanning existence!
Sensing such astonishing commotion, A Beinu, Yu Qing, Will, and others also revealed looks of pleasant surprise.
There was finally movement! This guy was finally about to emerge from seclusion!
Boom! Rumble!
Under the gaze of all, atop the Chaos Light Pillar, a tall and heroic figure slowly appeared.
And when this figure appeared, the earth-shaking, terrifying aura that had shaken heaven and earth was precisely emanating from its body.
It filled the entire cosmic Star Sky, suppressing the vast expanse!
Under this Oppressive Might, throughout the entire human great realm, billions upon billions of living beings—except for the lofty few Ancient Sovereigns and top-tier Quasi-Monarchs like the Mystic Dao Elder and Qin Wu—all other Quasi-Monarchs felt an absolute majesty that shook their souls.
"This aura—"
"Quasi-Monarch!?"
Upon sensing the terrifying nature of this aura, everyone in this expanse of Star Sky instantly became dumbfounded, raising their heads to stare blankly at that unyielding figure that seemed to stand above the All Heavens, treading upon the myriad Daos.
A voice filled with thick astonishment slowly resounded, exploding beside everyone's ears.
