Chapter 2001 - 1831: The Emperor’s Righteousness
Ye Chen was shocked in his heart, all of this was actually within the expectations of the Sealing Realm Emperors. What kind of grand Heavenly Earth Chess is this?
Moreover, they did not hesitate to abandon the countless beings of the Sealing Universe, burying everything. The vast Heavenly Realm Continent shattered, plunging into the dark era of the Ten Thousand Domain Era.
The Heavenly Dao is merciless, treating all things like straw dogs.
Are these Emperors who stand alongside the Heavenly Dao all so cold and heartless, watching the myriad beings perish at the hands of the alien army just to preserve themselves, staying away for the so-called Heavenly Earth Chess?
His heart grew cold. If this is true, are these Supreme Emperors worthy of the admiration and veneration of countless generations?
As if knowing what Ye Chen was thinking, Christie gently shook her head and softly said, "Little one, there are some things you cannot judge too early. In the past, the Sealing Realm Emperors did not refuse to save all spirits. They went all out, sacrificing themselves, some Emperors even fell, staining all heavens with their blood. Moreover, the situation in the Sealing Universe was very passive, not only facing the invasion of the alien army but also some terrifying ancient existences targeted the Sealing Universe. And our Sealing Realm Emperors were almost all entangled, unable to fully protect the living beings."
Ye Chen felt guilty; the Sealing Realm Emperors were all about great justice and virtue, yet he was doubting, truly disgraceful.
"In the past, our Sealing Realm Emperors knew they could not truly prevent the alien army’s invasion. They still fought to stop it, paying a blood-heavy price, some Emperors and Emperors fell, yet they couldn’t turn the tide. Helplessly, to preserve their strength and consider the future grand scheme, during the defeat, the Emperors reluctantly chose to leave for other lands, leaving the Sealing Universe," Christie softly said. Her words were calm, but Ye Chen could hear the magnitude of determination the Sealing Realm Emperors had to make such decisions.
After all, the Sealing Universe is where they were born and bred, akin to a hometown. As supreme Emperors who ruled ancient and modern times, yet they couldn’t prevent the aliens’ invasion, forcing them to leave for other lands. The helplessness and powerlessness in their hearts, how heavy was it?
Ye Chen could completely imagine it.
Who says Emperors are heartless, treating everything like straw dogs?
Emperors are about great justice and virtue; their vision is not just limited to the moment but also far-reaching.
"Our realm’s Great Emperor, to arrange the Heavenly Earth Chess, spent much thought. Even some Emperors took risks, traveling across lands," Christie said. "Some entered the Chaos Sea, into the prehistoric Secret Realm from endless ages ago."
"Some entered the mysterious no-man’s land of the Primordial Immortal Realm, where all things are buried, including immortals and emperors."
"Some bear the blame of eternal infamy, enduring humiliation without being accepted by the world."
"Some aren’t afraid to disassemble reincarnation, striving through one life after another, just to fight against the most dreadful bloodstained future more effectively."
"Some are not afraid of death, just to enter that land and seek ancient secrets."
"Some traverse time and space, bearing enormous causality."
"Some even have slain Emperors, subjugated Supreme Immortals, and pour enemy blood across the Chaos Sea. Unmatched from ancient to modern, one person stood alone against the most dreadful enemy of an entire epoch, so intimidating that all surrounding enemies dared not come, filled with dread."
"Throughout the ages, one Great Emperor after another sacrificed themselves to set up the grand chess game, involving past, present, and future. Wasn’t it all to better confront the bloodstained future?"
The Sealing Realm Emperors sacrificed themselves to face the bloodstained future, trying to leave the Sealing Universe a sliver of hope, working tirelessly in their own ways.
"But you need to understand, the Sealing Universe doesn’t lack true Emperors; it’s just that they’re not in this universe, transcended outside, making it easier to control the chess game."
"Some are still in battle, some went to the Chaos Sea, some went to the Primordial Immortal Realm, some confronted the most terrifying enemy of the entire epoch, some go through reincarnation time and again, some bear eternal infamy, some are unafraid of death just so that the future can defy the heavens and return..."
"They are all on their journey, all for the future to totally return, to participate in the ultimate battle!"
The words once spoken by the Time-Space Emperor to Ye Chen echoed in his mind once more, never forgotten.
Now reflecting, it’s clear the Emperors of the Sealing Universe are scattered across places, working for the ultimate chess game, the ultimate battle, striving continuously for that bloodstained future.
As the Time-Space Emperor once said, for the sake of this chess game, the Mythical Emperors made great sacrifices, abandoning the mythical Sealing Universe of its peak Mythical Era, traveling to foreign lands. All this was to better face the bloodstained future, the ultimate battle.
Now, he truly recalls, the Time-Space Emperor mentioned it long ago, and he forgot. Thinking back now, there is heartfelt respect for the Emperors and guilt for previous doubts.
Christie just lightly sighed, "But you must know, that bloodstained future is terrifyingly formidable, and the ultimate battle involves not only the Sealing Universe, the Alien Ancient Universe, but even the boundless Chaos Sea. In the past Sealing Universe’s battle of Mythical Destruction, only some ancient existences emerged, but in the bloodstained future of the ultimate battle, it’s far more. All terrors will eventually appear. Those immortal ancient entities from the earliest era, those forgotten Innate Divine Lands, those things hidden deep in the Chaos Sea yet to show themselves, will all emerge one by one. There’s even the possibility of unknown terrifying existences."
"The Mythical Destruction was exceedingly tragic, and the peak of the Sealing Universe completely declined, still incomparable to the epoch era of back then."
"But compared to the bloodstained future, it’s insignificant."
"To call it terrifying, horrifying, is an understatement."
"Perhaps more accurately, it is a despair-inducing bloodstained future."
Even though hearing about the terrifying bloodstained future more than once, each listen brings immense heaviness to the heart.
That is a bloodstained future and a future we need to confront, one that will overturn ancient and modern times, destroy time and space, reversing everything.
"That River of Time carries ancient and modern, one epoch after another, the era shifts, time and space submerge. All these happen upon it, hiding the most dreadful secrets."
Christie looked at Ye Chen, her sapphire-like beautiful eyes filled with a special expectation, softly saying, "Little one, you have been chosen as one of the key figures, especially you, as the Chaos Young Supreme cultivating the strongest Chaos Dao. The Emperors pin the greatest hope on you, hoping that one day you can break through all obstacles, break the shackles, transcend above the Emperors, and achieve the one and only eternity. Perhaps only then can everything be prevented."
