Chapter 237: The Ancient Emperor, True Immortal Mother
As the vast All Things Silent enveloped the area, the crowned woman’s protective power surged forth, shining brightly to combat the freezing stillness.
The self-generated power of a Physical Law practitioner!
With her self-generated power protecting her, the woman, adorned with a star ring, struggled to break through the All Things Silent, gradually making her way toward Yun Ye.
"Her power is too weak."
Yun Ye clearly sensed the difference. Although this woman had a remarkably high talent, her foundational Physical Law was quite weak, comparable only to that of the Xiang Family, and she could not be mentioned in the same breath as Nangong Xungu and the others.
With such weak power opposing All Things Silent, one could only imagine her talent.
Currently, Yun Ye was evidently far stronger than in his previous life; even to be safe, he had refined his spiritual body before stepping onto this Heavenly Path.
While the subsequent challenges would likely be difficult to overcome, the Ninth Barrier was definitely within his reach!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The woman shattered the All Things Silent repeatedly, drawing nearer to Yun Ye, but such hopes were too fanciful. Yun Ye could move freely, unimpeded by the All Things Silent.
So, as the woman took a step forward, Yun Ye took a step back.
After a minute, Yun Ye’s expression turned serious, as a large amount of spirit energy transformed, causing his meridians to sting.
Though he was now in the spiritual realm, he was still only at the entry-level stage, and his meridians had not fully transformed into spiritual realm meridians, making his capacity for spirit energy low — to put it simply, his maximum energy limit was not high.
The large-scale All Things Silent consumed a considerable amount of power; if it continued, his lifespan would rapidly diminish. While he wouldn’t die on this Heavenly Path, he would suffer significant mental damage, and the extent of this damage would affect how long it would take to re-enter the Heavenly Path.
After waiting for over ten seconds, the crowned woman still showed no signs of fatigue and continued to advance. Through the Eye of Invisible Light, Yun Ye could see that countless streams of spirit energy coiled around this woman, forming a dragon aura.
Every punch she threw carried a massive amount of spirit energy, meaning her actual life force was hardly depleted.
Yun Ye sighed, realizing he had no choice but to abandon the war of attrition.
He waited for the woman to get closer.
Then, as her fist loomed larger in front of him, he decided that the simplest way to determine the outcome was…
"Essence of Chaos!"
Instantly, the spirit energy became chaotic, greatly diminishing the woman’s attack power.
“Boom!”
Yun Ye struck with several punches, breaking through several barriers before hitting the crowned woman’s chest. At the last moment, she deflected her body, preventing Yun Ye from directly damaging her heart.
"…"
He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but in that brief moment, Yun Ye felt as if the woman regained her spirit; beneath her expressionless face, it seemed she was watching him.
And then something more shocking happened.
Her figure should have dissolved into white smoke, but instead, she flickered, forcefully stabilizing herself.
Just like Thunder True Feather back then!
She moved silently, while Yun Ye felt as though time had stopped, unable to make even the slightest movement.
The woman passed through Yun Ye, moving toward the distance, as if gazing at the world through him.
As Yun Ye felt a surge of horror, the woman spoke:
"Another tragic reincarnation, you too will choose like Path Lord."
"Will you make the same choice?"
She was not asking but rather mumbling to herself. Without waiting for Yun Ye’s response, she pointed at him.
Countless profound insights etched deeply into Yun Ye’s soul —
"Heaven is at my position?"
Yun Ye turned around and saw the woman transform into white smoke and vanish.
He stared at his clenched fist in shock, muttering, "Is there such a monster on the Heavenly Path? Can it really convey its teachings through history?!"
Then, information related to the Ninth Barrier revealed itself, and Yun Ye was stunned.
"Human race’s supreme ruler."
"A Great Achievement cultivator."
"The first immortal in history, the ancient emperor, the nurturer of eternal wisdom, the True Immortal Mother."
"’Red Heaven’."
Countless epics replayed.
The birth of the Red Kingdom was divine from the start. A youthful supreme ruler stood on the earth, striking at the king of the Manifest Realm.
The red tribe lacked the strength to match the demons and was enslaved by the king of the Manifest Realm, the Lord of the Other Shore, raised as livestock. "Red," born sacred, grew by covering ominous phenomena with the sacrifices of countless lives.
She was the first to challenge the king of the Manifest Realm, emerging victorious, changing the fate of the Red Kingdom, transforming it into a pure land for humans.
Afterward, she tore apart the invading demons countless times, sheltering the human race for ten thousand years, achieving the position of supreme ruler.
One day, she suddenly held the red silk ball, gathering the fortune of the human race.
The first immortal in history was born!
The first great prosperity of the human race began!
It was known as the Era of Red Heaven!
Yun Ye could see that all combat techniques during this era were based on Physical Law, with no traces of Spiritual Law or Spirit Law.
Moreover, since ancient times had already seen the existence of supreme rulers among the human race, it was impossible for them to lack a space for survival.
What had happened afterward that led to the destruction of the completed great prosperity of the human race in the Era of Red Heaven?
"The ancient emperor, the first True Immortal of the human race, yet the name True Immortal Mother has been erased. Rarely mentioned in myths… The first True Immortal of the human race has never been mentioned in external myths, as if lost or intentionally erased."
Yun Ye’s expression became inscrutable.
True Immortals are neither dead nor obliterated; this is the essence of being a True Immortal. Without this essence, one cannot be called a True Immortal.
The first True Immortal must still be alive, as will later True Immortals. Those who embody living history cannot simply allow some things to be lost.
The erasure of the name True Immortal Mother was undoubtedly deliberate.
This made one ponder deeply with dread.
Was it a fight among True Immortals?
Yun Ye did not rush to challenge the next figure; instead, he sat down, numerous thoughts racing through his mind.
"Speaking of which, it’s indeed astonishing. In human history, there have been at least ten mythic figures who became immortals. If they were truly invincible, truly transcending all, why does the human race still remain in a weak position? Vast territories have been seized by demons. Even within their own dynasties, humans have been divided into countless pieces by demonic zones?"
"Could it be that demons have their own immortal-level beings? What level of being is the king of the Manifest Realm… It can be concluded that the king of the Manifest Realm must be weaker than the supreme ruler of the human race, as the first immortal killed the king of the Manifest Realm in his youth, while achieving supreme ruler status took a full ten thousand years."
"Then, the Dao Artifact was born, achieving the first immortal!"
Yun Ye closed his eyes, and the Rebirth Book appeared.
The scene replayed continuously in his mind.
He noticed that after becoming an immortal, the Era of Red Heaven indeed swept across the world, with all lands in submission.
The human race seems to have dominated the heavens and earth, suppressing all demon existences. Even those with extremely profound auras, deeper than hell or heaven, entities that could be called demon gods, were driven far away and could no longer interfere with this realm.
"This sky is… Red Heaven!"
"This world is… the realm of Red Heaven!"
Yun Ye used to call this place the cultivation world, and he was not surprised that the world had no name.
After all, Earth has a name because people traveled around and realized that the land beneath their feet was a sphere.
This is determined by perception; without reaching a certain stage, there simply isn’t a convincing explanation.
For instance, humans have not named the universe; their understanding is incomplete, so how could they name an entire cosmic space?
Yun Ye previously thought this world was nameless, and even if it had one, it was not something he could touch.
Yet on the Heavenly Path, this puzzle was finally solved.
The world he inhabited was called Red Heaven, named after the first True Immortal of the human race.
