Chapter 1921: Change in the Mine

Translator: Legge

“Infinite Great Emperor…”

The Martial Dao Prime Body murmured.

Even with his temperament, he could not conceal the shock in his eyes when he heard Heavenly Wolf’s description.

What sort of a method was it to refine one’s flesh into a purgatory to suppress evil?!

There was no need to even mention capturing the souls of the four sacred beasts to create supreme divine weapons.

Even though the Martial Dao Prime Body did not know much about the upper world, he could roughly guess that the four sacred beasts, the Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird, White Tiger and Black Tortoise, were definitely peak existences in the upper world.

However, even those powerful sacred beasts were suppressed by the Infinite Great Emperor with their souls captured and sealed within the Hell Suppression Tripod—it was clear how powerful he was.

Even so, the Hell Suppression Tripod was shattered.

“Is the Infinite Great Emperor still alive?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.

Actually, when he asked that question, the Martial Dao Prime Body already had an answer in his heart.

If the Infinite Great Emperor was still alive, the Hell Suppression Tripod would not have been shattered and left in the lower world, buried in the ruins.

“He died a long time ago,”

Heavenly Wolf said, “The Infinite Great Emperor once established an era. However, countless years have passed since that era. It might be hundreds of millions of years or even billions of years. It’s too long… Even Great Emperors can’t live forever and last for so long.”

“Era?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned slightly.

Heavenly Wolf explained, “If a Great Emperor is born in the upper world, he will create an era of his own. When the Great Emperor dies, it will also mean the end of this era.”

“You mean to say that there’s only a single Great Emperor in each era?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked instead.

“Of course,”

Heavenly Wolf said, “There are many Emperor realm experts in the many worlds of the upper world. However, there’s only one Great Emperor in every era! The Great Emperor looks down on the world and gathers fortune to rule over all worlds. He reigns supreme in the universe and no one dares to disobey him!”

There’s only a single Great Emperor!

Upper world, Divine Firmament Mainland.

When Su Zimo obtained that information, many of the doubts in his heart were gradually resolved.

It was no wonder why the Bronze Square Tripod was so strong and indestructible. Although it was battered, even the black hole could not devour it.

The Bronze Square Tripod was originally an Emperor weapon!

Of course, given its shattered state, its cultivation realm as an Emperor weapon had long fallen and its power was greatly reduced.

Su Zimo’s cultivation realm could not be too low if he wanted the Hell Suppression Tripod to recover to its peak and unleash the true might of the Emperor weapon.

Under normal circumstances, as a supreme Emperor weapon, the Hell Suppression Tripod was famous and was extremely easy to recognize.

However, because it was too long ago and the Hell Suppression Tripod was shattered beyond recognition, no one had been able to identify its origin up till now.

In Su Zimo’s opinion, even if he repaired the Hell Suppression Tripod completely, not many people would be able to recognize that Emperor weapon.

Su Zimo composed himself and continued cultivating beneath the mine.

His cultivation realm had already broken through to the Level 9 Black Essence realm.

The mine was filled with Essence Spirit Stones.

If nothing went wrong, he was prepared to cultivate to the peak of the Level 9 Black Essence realm. If he had the chance, he would even attempt to break through to the Earth Essence realm and become an Earth Immortal!

A year later.

Outside Glass City, in a mine tunnel beneath the seventh Essence Spirit Mine, Su Zimo suddenly jolted awake from his cultivation. His eyes flickered and he had a strange expression.

Earlier on, he felt an unusual sense of trepidation on a whim!

For the past thousand years, the mine had been extremely peaceful and no one dared to disturb him.

The cultivators in the mine were all Black Immortals and posed no threat to him.

However, that sense of trepidation was extremely obvious and it was definitely not an illusion!

“Could someone have noticed me cultivating in secret?”

The moment that thought crossed Su Zimo’s mind, he denied it himself.

All these years, he had been extremely careful and had not exposed himself. Even the cultivators in the mine did not know what he was doing in the depths of the mine tunnel.

“Could it be…”

Suddenly, Su Zimo thought of a guess.

“This is bad, run!”

“Someone dug out a complete claw and everyone around it is dead!”

Right then, an inexplicable scream sounded from outside the mine tunnel.

Su Zimo’s expression turned grim.

Back before he entered the mine, a noseless cultivator told him something similar.

Someone had once dug out a drop of blood and buried tens of thousands of cultivators in this mine!

If a complete claw was dug out, the consequences would be unimaginable.

“Heavens, t-that’s not a claw…”

Right then, a trembling voice sounded, “This is a complete living being!”

“It’s alive! Ah!”

The cries stopped abruptly.

Su Zimo’s heart skipped a beat.

A living being was dug out from the Essence Spirit Mine!

The noseless cultivator had once told him that some of the flesh and corpses could last for hundreds of thousands of years without rotting and be preserved till now. One could imagine the terrifying power contained in those flesh and corpses.

After countless years, an ancient living being had awakened under the Essence Spirit Mine!

Suddenly, Su Zimo recalled something and looked over instinctively. He stared at a stone wall of a mine tunnel not far away in silence.

More than a hundred years ago, he dug to the stone wall.

Just as he was about to swing the jade spatula down, his spirit perception warned him for no reason—it was extremely dangerous!

He did not attack rashly. Instead, he channeled the Nether Glow and Illumination Eye. His left eye was pitch-black and his right eye was white as he looked at the stone wall.

Under normal circumstances, the surface of the rocks in the mining area had a unique stone skin.

Even spirit consciousness could not penetrate it, let alone sight.

However, over the years, Su Zimo had inadvertently discovered that if he were to circulate his Illumination and Nether Glow Eye at the same time, he could vaguely see through the stone skin and see some blurry scenes within.

That discovery delighted him.

That way, he could easily determine where Essence Spirit Stones were in the mine tunnel and gather them directly, saving a lot of time.

At that time, he used his Illumination and Nether Glow Eye to stare at the stone wall.

Through the stone skin, he could vaguely see a blurry white shadow. It was ten feet wide and was different from Essence Spirit Stones.

Out of caution, Su Zimo did not continue digging the stone wall. Instead, he changed directions to gather Essence Spirit Stones before continuing to cultivate with them.

But now that a calamity had broken out beneath the mine, Su Zimo could not help but recall this matter.

The tragic cries outside gradually faded and became silent before long.

Su Zimo’s five senses were sharp and he could already smell the strong stench of blood!

He did not dare to act rashly. Instead, he retracted his aura and held his breath, letting his heartbeat slow down to its limits and the flow of his bloodline become incomparably slow.

He hid in the depths of the mine tunnel motionlessly like a lifeless stone.

Su Zimo waited patiently.

Time passed bit by bit.

An hour passed.

Su Zimo judged that the ancient living being should have left long ago.

Out of caution, he remained motionless and continued waiting.

Two hours later, after a long time without any activity, Su Zimo let out a long breath and his expression relaxed.
