768 The Time Before the Immortal Ancestors Were Born (2)
“Don’t worry, I won’t easily touch on dangerous and unknown history.” At this moment, Cui Heng suddenly pulled Immortal Ancestor Zongmu into the air and bound him with an Immortal Binding Rope. He chuckled and said, “However, I can make preparations to touch on that history.” Before his words landed on Immortal Ancestor Zongmu’s ears, his body lit up with purple-gold light. The light was sharp, as if it had the intention to split the world apart and envelope him entirely.
Dao Life Sword!
Streaks of purple-gold sword lights instantly obliterated Immortal Ancestor Zongmu’s figure from this time point, leaving only a ball of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man floating in the air.
At the same time, with this time point as the starting point, as long as the timeline was occupied by Cui Heng, Immortal Ancestor Zongmu would be dead and no longer exist.
!!
However, this was not the end. After Cui Heng destroyed Immortal Ancestor Zongmu on the timeline, he continued to attack his past selves as well.
He was not going back in time. He only sent an incarnation of a Dao mark into the past from the time of the first Chaos Calamity.
Then, Cui Heng’s perception followed the trajectory of time that had been rewinded earlier and arrived at the time when Immortal Ancestor Zongmu had just accommodated the divine remains of the Supreme God of Man.
This was the time of the birth of the Gate Master Immortal Emperor.
Crossing the River of Time, Cui Heng once again saw the Nine Immortal Ancestors surrounding a ball of light and heard their conversation.
At this moment, the former Cui Heng had just escaped from the attack of Immortal Ancestor Zongmu.
Beside the ball of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man, Immortal Ancestor Zongmu’s face revealed a stunned and puzzled expression. He said in surprise, “How can this be? Even if he’s already dead in the distant future, as long as he exists, we should be able to find him.”
Xu Cheng, Huang Yun, Yu Ling, and the other Immortal Ancestors noticed that something was wrong with Immortal Ancestor Zongmu’s expression and hurriedly came over to ask.
“How is it? Did you find him?”
“How many years ago did this person come from? What’s his background?”
“Did you kill him?”
… .
… .
Immortal Ancestor Zongmu was about to reply when his expression suddenly turned cold. His face revealed fear as he said in shock, “No, that’s not right. He’s…”
Before he could finish speaking, Cui Heng’s incarnation’s attack had already crossed the River of Time.
A ball of pitch-black light condensed into a treasure mirror in the air. The light that seemed to symbolize the source of death instantly enveloped Immortal Ancestor Zongmu.
Yin Yang Seal!
This Immortal cultivation technique had fused Yin and Yang and could display various opposing powers, such as positive and negative, life and death. What it displayed now was the power of death.
Now, Cui Heng was countless times stronger than when he had just broken through to the Late-stage Return to Void Realm.
Even if he had yet to occupy this time point, the incarnation of the Dao mark alone was enough to condense the power to kill Immortal Ancestor Zongmu.
Under the illumination of this pitch-black mirror light, Immortal Ancestor Zongmu had no ability to resist at all.
All his vitality was destroyed on the spot, and his body and soul was destroyed.
Only a ball of bright light was left floating on the spot. It was the ball of power left behind by the Supreme God of Man.
Then, this ball of light flew up and entered the River of Time, landing in the hand of Cui Heng.
On the Time Spectrum, from this moment onwards, this ball of divine power was already in Cui Heng’s hands.
It was the same in the future. Immortal Ancestor Zongmu had ceased to exist.
At this moment, the other eight Immortal Ancestors did not even react to what was going on.
After the ball of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man was taken away by Cui Heng’s incarnation, it took them a long time to react to what had just happened.
It was really because Cui Heng’s attack just now was too sudden and powerful, completely exceeding the understanding of the eight Immortal Ancestors.
But they could do nothing but watch helplessly.
After killing Immortal Ancestor Zongmu, Cui Heng sent an incarnation of a Dao mark to an earlier time.
At this moment, the Nine Immortal Ancestors were about to begin to accommodate the power left behind by the Supreme God of Man.
It was the time before they became Immortal Ancestors.
Whether it was the Nine Immortal Ancestors, the Heaven Earth Saints, or other Immortal Emperors, they could not return to this time point.
Therefore, as soon as Cui Heng’s incarnation arrived at this time point, he could clearly feel that it was different.
The River of Time in this era was incomparably calm and natural. There were no signs of being modified. The timeline was simple, clear, clean, and refreshing.
To Cui Heng, who had already seen an incomparably chaotic timeline and space-time fluctuations, coming to this era was simply like coming from a smelly ditch to a clear spring.
It was simply refreshing.
However, after Cui Heng finished appreciating the view, he focused his attention on the goal this time, which was Immortal Ancestor Zongmu.
At this moment, in front of the Human Sacred Palace, the door opened and nine people slowly walked out.
They were the Nine Immortal Ancestors who had yet to attain the Dao.
Their footsteps were heavy and their expressions were serious. Their hands were trembling, as if they had just done something that made them extremely uneasy.
These nine people were all holding a ball of light in their hands. The lights emitted an extremely dense power of the Supreme God of Man, but there was also an aura of mania and anger.
“This time, we risked our lives and finally obtained the possibility to step into a higher realm.” Huang Yun looked at everyone and said in a low voice, “But we can’t let anyone else know about what happened today.”
“From now on, this matter will be sealed forever. No one else will know.” Xu Cheng nodded. “This is a secret we share.”
“These are all gifts left behind by the Supreme God of Man,” Chang Mu said seriously. “After the Supreme God of Man transformed into the Dao, he left behind 12 gifts. Nine of them are for us, and the other three are for all living beings. This will be the established history.”
“That’s right. We’re all successors of the Supreme God of Man’s divine power.” Immortal Ancestor Luo Qian nodded, as if he was stating something incomparably right.
“Yes.” Huang Yun nodded and said in a low voice, “In the future, this established history has to be engraved in our own understanding. Even if there’s no one else around, we have to live and breathe this truth.” “That’s right.” Xu Cheng nodded in agreement and said, “In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, we should accommodate these few ‘gifts’ as soon as possible to prevent the situation that happened to the first three people.”
The others nodded and began to absorb the light in their hands.
Zongmu was naturally among these people.
But just as he was about to refine the ball of light in his hand…
A slender white palm suddenly stretched out from the void and grabbed the ball of light, snatching it away and disappearing.
He was left stunned on the spot as he looked at his empty hands in disbelief. “What’s going on? What just happened? Who was it?!”
Then, another teasing voice floated over and chuckled. “I’m sorry, I forgot to kill you.”
The palm that had just disappeared appeared again and slapped down.
Boom!
With this loud bang, Immortal Ancestor Zongmu, who had stood at the top of the world for countless years in the future, was destroyed in body and soul and completely disappeared from history.
The timeline immediately underwent a series of changes. The Nine Immortal Ancestors that had been famous since ancient times, was changed to the Eight Immortal Ancestors.
The way these Eight Immortal Ancestors acted had also changed.
Clearly, this matter had a deep impact on them.
However, this was no longer Cui Heng’s concern.
At this moment, this “gift” left behind by the Supreme God of Man completely belonged to him. There were no longer any obstacles in the path ahead.
Of course, before he really touched that period of history, Cui Heng still had to confirm what had happened to the Supreme God of Man.
Hence, he looked at the eight terrified people at the side.
“How did you get the balls of light in your hands?”
