It must be known that Ancient Great Emperors were supreme existences that had not been born within the Primordial Heaven Realm since the beginning of this epoch, beings countless times more powerful than even Heaven Realm Rulers.
Once one achieved such an existence, they could master the entire Primordial Heaven Realm and even the Eight Realms of Myriad Worlds, possessing infinite lifespan, presiding over the rise and fall of all heavens—who could contend with them?
That was the greatest pursuit of an Ancient Monarch's life.
In the shadows, several other Ancient Monarchs, their auras particularly dark and sinister, belonged to the alien race.
They were outside the Mythical Ruins Land, not entering immediately, but their gazes burned with fervor as they stared at that Immortal Emperor Medicine, excitedly saying: "To think an Immortal Emperor Medicine still exists within the Primordial Heaven Realm. This is a heaven-defying opportunity; even among the many Supreme Ones, few truly possess one."
"Hahaha—this Pangu Universe can be considered a heaven-defying fortune left behind for our ancient universe. Before heading to save the Desolate Realm's Dao Tenth Generation Lord, we can plunder an Immortal Emperor Medicine. After returning, as long as we study it diligently, we should be able to obtain the fastest path to the Supreme Realm."
Faced with a genuine Immortal Emperor Medicine, even Great Emperors, Ancient Sovereigns, and Supreme Immortals would be moved to the extreme. How could they be excluded?
"Hurry over! We must seize this Immortal Emperor Medicine!"
Silently, their figures vanished as they also charged toward the Immortal Emperor Medicine.
Within the Mythical Ruins Land, someone—no one knew who—spoke, and the word spread, causing all the various powers to learn that the giant tree supporting the heavens was the legendary Immortal Emperor Medicine, containing the supreme mysteries of attaining the Dao and becoming an Emperor.
Instantly, everyone's eyes turned red with madness as they charged over.
Compared to the Immortal Emperor Medicine, nothing else in heaven and earth could be mentioned in the same breath.
A great battle soon erupted near the Immortal Emperor Medicine, involving countless experts from the Great Power Realm to the Divine King Realm.
Those below the Great Power Realm, knowing they were unqualified to contend for the Immortal Emperor Medicine, voluntarily withdrew to seek other opportunities within the Mythical Ruins Land.
Boom—!
At the center of the Mythical Ruins Land world, over forty or fifty Divine Kings engaged in battle. Divine King-level fluctuations shook heaven and earth, utterly terrifying. All Great Powers were forcefully pushed away by the overwhelming Divine King might, unable to approach.
Only Divine Kings had the qualification to contend for this Immortal Emperor Medicine.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, the Immortal Emperor Medicine moved. Ninety-nine tree vines descended, each stretching for millions of miles, unimaginably massive, like super-giant mountain ranges appearing, yet they danced wildly, smashing toward these Divine Kings.
"Not good! These vines possess power comparable to the Divine King Realm!"
An Ancient Divine King paled, struck by a vine and sent flying instantly, spraying a great amount of blood, severely wounded.
The other Divine Kings all changed expression. If each vine was comparable to a Divine King Realm expert, ninety-nine vines meant ninety-nine Divine Kings!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Immediately, numerous Divine Kings dodged.
Even if these vines only matched ordinary Divine King-level power, ninety-nine combined were enough to sweep through all Divine Kings, impossible to resist.
"Hmph, a bunch of trash!"
At this moment, the Distant Desolate Demon God snorted coldly. Boundless demonic light erupted around him, as if he were a Chaos Demon God splitting heaven and earth. With a grab of his hand, he firmly seized a thick vine lashing toward him; no matter how it struggled or whipped, it could not break free.
On the other side, Sovereign Lord Huang slashed with a palm blade, cleanly severing a thick vine in two, unable to harm him in the slightest.
All the Divine Kings gasped in shock. Was this the strength of the Emperor Ranking's strongest Heaven's Pride?
Though they were all Divine Kings, these two were overwhelmingly stronger.
The Distant Desolate Demon God looked at Sovereign Lord Huang, grinning: "You are one of the few in the Eight Realms of Myriad Worlds who can earn my slight regard. How about we compete to see who ultimately obtains this Immortal Emperor Medicine?"
Sovereign Lord Huang replied indifferently: "Agreed!"
The two strongest Heaven's Pride on the Emperor Ranking viewed each other as their greatest rival, not even placing others—even Divine Kings—in their eyes.
And indeed, they possessed such capability.
Boom—!
Boom—!
Heaven and earth trembled. Almost simultaneously, the two shot into the sky, both charging toward the trunk of the Immortal Emperor Medicine.
Across heaven and earth, numerous vines danced wildly, tearing through the void, bombarding the two.
But whether it was the Distant Desolate Demon God or Sovereign Lord Huang, both were extraordinary super-powerful experts, supreme among Divine Kings, their methods far surpassing ordinary Divine Kings by an immeasurable degree. If not for the sheer number of vines, such attacks could not hinder them at all, at most causing slight delays.
Soon, in just a brief moment, they arrived before the trunk of the Immortal Emperor Medicine. All vines were blocked outside by their protective Dao light, utterly unable to encroach even slightly.
This was their strength!
Absolute strength that could be called unrivaled and supreme among the Divine King Realm!
"Let's do it!"
Suddenly, someone spoke first—no one knew who—but both immediately attacked the Immortal Emperor Medicine.
Right then, both abruptly changed expression, the first time they had shown such alarm.
For they saw countless vines suddenly appear in the sky, their number endless, reaching as many as nine thousand nine hundred—a hundred times more than before.
If one vine equaled one Divine King, then nine thousand nine hundred vines equaled nearly ten thousand Divine Kings. No matter how powerful the two were, they were merely stronger Divine Kings, utterly incapable of resisting so many Divine King-level forces.
Not to mention them, even a Quasi-Sovereign would certainly perish.
The Divine Kings on the periphery turned deathly pale.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Instantly, the nine thousand nine hundred vines fiercely danced. The vast heaven and earth shattered immediately, unable to withstand this terrifying power, as they heavily smashed toward the two strongest Heaven's Pride on the Emperor Ranking.
Neither the Distant Desolate Demon God nor Sovereign Lord Huang dared to meet this head-on. Their strength could withstand ninety-nine vines, but nine thousand nine hundred was absolutely impossible. Relying on extreme movement speed and agility, they weaved through the onslaught, avoiding being struck.
Yet even so, they were hit dozens of times, their protective Dao light shattered, the blows landing on their bodies. Powerful as they were, they coughed blood intermittently, suffering severe wounds.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Suddenly, the nine thousand nine hundred vines fiercely sealed off all directions, cutting off all escape routes for the two. Then, hundreds upon thousands of vines gathered together, smashing down with a force sufficient to annihilate a Quasi-Sovereign—the most terrifying strike.
Boom—!
Boom—!
At that moment, two beams of light suddenly pierced through the air, crashing into the absolutesealed domain. Each propped up circles of radiance containing supreme rule power, forcibly preventing the countless vines from descending even a sliver, completely blocking them.
That vast, majestic might swept across the entire Mythical Ruins Land, startling all the various powers.
