After all, no one dislikes living a long life.Alth...One seeks opportunity within the ancient emperor's hidden realm, while another seeks to seize the ancient emperor's legacy.

Shen Changqing parted ways with the Overlord Heavenly Jun for now.

Although the ancient imperial secret realm is extremely dangerous, with powerful beasts almost everywhere, even with the current strength of the Heavenly Emperor, if he encounters a top-tier beast, he would still have a chance to escape.

...Nor did he mention that after consuming the Dragon Elephant War Blood, his strength was comparable to a Divine Lord of the Sixth Heaven. Just the various tricks up his sleeve were enough to save his life.

Despite being pursued and blocked by numerous deities, it was unable to be directly killed.

Ancient talismans, long lost to time, flew out one after another, revealing their profound origins.

In fact.

Shen Changqing had been lurking in the shadows after realizing the whereabouts of the Overlord God Monarch. He didn't appear immediately, wanting to see firsthand the methods of this ancient god monarch.

I thought the Overlord God wouldn't last long, but I didn't expect him to have such a deep foundation. He managed to hold his own against many Divine Lords for quite some time.

Only when the other party couldn't withstand it any longer did Shen Changqing step forward to resolve the crisis.

So.

Shen Changqing was quite confident in the strength and methods of the Heavenly Sovereign.

Furthermore, the other party's numerous visits to ancient sites and their expertise in exploring them are unmatched by anyone else.

Although the Ancient Emperor's Secret Realm is full of ferocious beasts, the possibility of them truly threatening someone is not high.

Then.

Shen Changqing's gaze turned towards the direction of the Ancient Emperor Tower.

There was nothing there, not even a trace of the so-called high tower.

The space within the Ancient Emperor's Secret Realm is unlike normal space. It is constantly filled with powerful pressure, and the spatial structure is extremely stable. Beyond a certain range, vision will be blocked by the power of space.

Shen Changqing suspected that this was the reason why few cultivators had discovered the Ancient Emperor Tower.

After all, the space within the ancient emperor's secret realm is not small. It's not that simple to truly find the existence of the ancient emperor's tower.

Sailing through the sky.

Shen Changqing firmly remembered the direction of the ancient imperial tower and didn't have to worry about getting lost.

>

During this period, there were also some ferocious beasts that attacked or were encountered along the way. Shen Changqing directly killed them, throwing all their flesh and blood into the Minghe Realm to nourish the heavens and earth.

The flesh of ferocious beasts contains a large amount of spiritual energy. The flesh of ferocious beasts at the level of a deity is comparable to a large spiritual vein.

As a large amount of divine beast flesh fell into the Minghe Realm, transforming into heaven and earth spiritual energy, the entire Minghe Realm's spiritual energy surged significantly.

But it is different from a real spiritual vein.

Spirit veins cling to heaven and earth, with a constant flow of spiritual energy within. Once the spiritual energy within the flesh and blood of ferocious beasts is depleted, there is no possibility of rebirth.

Not long after.

The Ancient Emperor's Tower was already in sight.

Looking at the towering structure before him, Shen Changqing didn't hesitate and directly took out the Ancient Imperial Decree.

Power surged into the Ancient Emperor's Decree, and it emitted a brilliant golden light. The Ancient Emperor Tower also trembled slightly, mirroring the brilliance of the Ancient Emperor's Decree.

Next.

Then, they saw the same golden light falling from within the Ancient Emperor Tower, enveloping Shen Changqing completely. But before he could make any other move, he was sucked into the Ancient Emperor Tower.

Inside the Ancient Emperor's Tower.

Whether there is an infinite void appearing.

Shen Changqing stood in the void, and a mysterious message came to him from somewhere.

Please let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Defeating a cultivator of the same realm will allow you to enter the second floor of the Ancient Emperor Tower!"

Immediately.

As he looked, a cultivator who resembled Shen Changqing emerged from the void before him. The aura emanating from his body was shockingly equivalent to that of a God Master at the sixth level.

"Interesting..."

Shen Changqing looked at the cultivator in front of him, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

The owner of the Ancient Emperor's Tower was the ancient weapon emperor. He became a divine emperor through his mastery of forging weapons. Therefore, this legacy left behind should be someone with extremely strong talent in forging.

That's it.

The trials within the Ancient Emperor's Tower should also be related to refining artifacts.

But now that I've just entered the Ancient Emperor Tower, the trials here have nothing to do with refining weapons. They are clearly designed to test the cultivators' combat power and potential.

Such changes are rather thought-provoking.

But—

Shen Changqing was not afraid. Seeing the cultivator charging at him, he didn't hold back at all and punched the cultivator in front of him, who was comparable to a god general at the sixth level, to death.

The cultivator perished.

The first test has already been passed.

Very soon.

Two cultivators at the Sixth Level of the Divine Master realm appeared before Shen Changqing.

This is the second level's test of the Ancient Emperor Tower. By slaying two cultivators of the same rank, you can enter the third level of the Ancient Emperor Tower.

In the ethereal space, a golden figure shimmered silently, observing the scene before it.

The scene is...

It was precisely the scene of Shen Changqing's challenge to the gate.

By this time, he had already stepped into the fifth floor of the Ancient Emperor's Tower. His opponents had also changed from two Divine Master Six-Heavens cultivators to two Divine Master Seven-Heavens cultivators.

But it didn't work.

Even two divine masters and seven-layered cultivators were still instantly killed by Shen Changqing with a single punch.

“The Sixth Heaven of the Divine Master Realm can directly kill two cultivators at the Seventh Heaven of the Divine Master Realm. It seems that there is another extraordinary prodigy born in this great era!”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

A deep voice echoed endlessly in the void.

This is the time.

Shen Changqing had already stepped directly into the seventh floor of the Ancient Emperor Tower.

Only the seventh-level test of the Ancient Emperor Tower directly transformed from three Divine Masters at the seventh level to a Divine Master at the eighth level.

Looking at the enshrined Eightfold cultivator before him, Shen Changqing didn't hold back either. He launched a punch directly at him, and the terrifying power of the killing fist instantly suppressed him.

Thus.

The seventh-floor test of the Ancient Emperor Tower was also passed.

When he reached the eighth floor of the ancient imperial tower, Shen Changqing discovered that this level was different from the others. Instead of the expected two eight-fold divine masters, it directly transformed into a single nine-fold divine master.

"The test has changed!"

Shen Changqing's eyebrows shot up.

As soon as he stepped into the Ancient Emperor Tower, he sensed a faint gaze that seemed to be always fixed on him.

This gaze could possibly be coming from the Ancient Imperial Tower itself, or perhaps from that ancient Soldier Emperor, but no matter what, Shen Changqing was unafraid.

Under the rules of Heaven, all beings are equal.

Regardless of whether you are a divine emperor powerhouse, the strength you can exert is only at the peak of a divine master.

Besides, Shen Changqing could summon Qing Yi from the Ming River Realm at any time to protect him. Thus, he had no reason to fear.

The strength of the divine master at its peak, combined with the immortal holy weapon, Shen Changqing would not say that he is invincible across the heavens, but it would be no problem for him to protect himself.

... very soon.

Shen Changqing had just slain the cultivator of the ninth level of the Divine Master and stepped into the ninth floor of the Ancient Emperor Tower.

This time, the test subject is a divine lord of tenfold cultivation.

As a general rule.

The difference between a divine master of the sixth level and a divine master of the tenth level is four small realms. Even the top prodigies wouldn't be able to bridge such a gap.

But Shen Changqing was obviously not comparable to ordinary top-notch geniuses. He didn't mean to hold back his strength, even the tenth level of the Divine Lord's test couldn't stop him for long.

When the deity's tenfold trials were passed, Shen Changqing found himself in a strange space.

A figure shrouded in golden light appeared, with endless rules of the Dao surging from it. An imposing aura befitting an ancient emperor emanated, causing the entire space to feel heavy with pressure.

"You're here!"

A calm and serene voice echoed in the void, falling into Shen Changqing's ears like heavenly music, causing him to instinctively feel a trace of awe.

But this feeling of awe was just about to emerge when he snuffed it out directly.

"May I ask who you are"

Shen Changqing asked calmly.

With his current abilities, he couldn't discern the slightest clue about the figure before him.

The golden figure spoke, "This sovereign is the master of this ancient imperial secret realm. You can call this sovereign the Emperor of Soldiers. Since you have passed the test of the Ancient Imperial Tower, you must be an unparalleled genius of this era."

Now, I am giving you an opportunity, a chance for you to reach the pinnacle of heaven!

The golden figure, or rather the voice of the Emperor Bing, was filled with subtle undertones, causing Shen Changqing's brows to furrow slightly.

"So it's General Bing Huang, senior. I wonder what opportunity you mentioned"

“Haha, it's very simple. As long as you merge with this Emperor, I will lead you to the pinnacle of all heavens!”

The Emperor of Soldiers laughed heartily, without the slightest attempt at concealment at this moment.

As soon as his voice fell, Shen Changqing suddenly felt a powerful aura in the void locking onto him.

In the face of this aura, he felt an illusion of being unable to move.

>However.

Shen Changqing remained unfazed, his expression icy. "So the so-called ancient emperor's legacy is just a ruse. Climbing to the top of the Ancient Emperor Tower not only offers no opportunities but makes one your target for possession!"

"You don't seem afraid at all"

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

At this time, the Emperor Bing also noticed Shen Changqing's abnormality. His expression was somewhat surprised, but he quickly recovered.

"Your potential is the greatest I've ever seen in my life. To be able to kill a Divine Master at the tenth level while only being at the sixth, this kind of talent and potential, even if compared to the Five Emperors of the Human Race, is not much different."

But potential is ultimately just potential. A prodigy who hasn't truly grown up isn't a strong person at all.

Though my physical body has perished, a fragment of my soul remains in this world. But know that the power of the Emperor is beyond your comprehension. Today, I shall be reborn! Your body will one day ascend to the peak alongside mine. This is an unparalleled honor, one you should be grateful for!"

When Shen Changqing stepped into this space, the Emperor of Soldiers understood that the other party had no way out, so he had nothing to hide and went straight to war with Shen Changqing.

After all.

The potential and talent that Shen Changqing displayed was the strongest that Emperor Bing had ever seen in his lifetime.

With a body like this, if he could fully utilize it, he would be confident in regaining his former peak, and even reaching the level of a divine sovereign wouldn't be entirely impossible.

So.

The instant the voice fell, Emperor Bing's remnant soul transformed into a streamer and charged directly towards Shen Changqing.

The latter frowned, forcefully shattering the constraints of the space before him. The power of his killing fist swept through the entire void.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Just as the two forces were about to collide, the Emperor's remnant soul, transformed into a stream of light, seemed to travel through time and space. The power of his killing fist had no effect on him whatsoever.

The next moment.

The remnant soul of the Emperor of Soldiers had already merged into Shen Changqing's body.oo late!"Li Kaiyang casually swung his sword, and the four divine kings who were about to retreat with Shan Huang were directly engulfed by the power, their bodies shattered into pieces.Next.He once a...
