Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

"Gu Qingfeng!"

"It seems this Emperor has underestimated him. To have such audacity... Well, if he wishes to battle, then this Emperor shall grant him the opportunity!"

Xia Tianjun's eyes were domineering, emitting an aura of disdain for the world. As a top strongman of the Ancient Wilderness Era, he considered himself unafraid of anyone.

Even when facing a Great Emperor, Xia Tianjun never bowed his head.

Now,

The Divine Martial Gu Family openly challenged, and Xia Tianjun naturally could not retreat.

Xia Qiuqiu respectfully said, "The Thirteenth Ancestor's divine might reaches the heavens, and he is certainly not afraid of someone like Gu Qingfeng. This time, it's just right to have the Thirteenth Ancestor take action, slay Gu Qingfeng, and raise the prestige of our Ancient Xia Family!"

...

Soon enough.

The news of Xia Tianjun's acceptance of the challenge spread completely.

In a short time,

the eyes of the world from all directions,

were cast towards the Eastern Domain.

To be precise,

they landed on the Tai Chu Ancient Land.

This ancient Life Forbidden Zone was filled with too much unknown and danger, and there were rumors that deep within the Tai Chu Ancient Land, there existed an indescribable being in self-slumber there.

Throughout history,

any creature who set foot into the Tai Chu Ancient Land was rare to ever come out alive.

Even if one managed to survive, they were burdened with a curse and could not meet a good end.

Now,

Gu Qingfeng chose to place the battlefield outside the Tai Chu Ancient Land, naturally attracting many eyes.

Some even,

wished to use their battle to see if they could uncover the secrets of the Tai Chu Ancient Land.

So,

almost all cultivators who heard the news rushed towards the Tai Chu Ancient Land, wanting to witness this battle for themselves.

Ten days' time,

flew by in the blink of an eye.

When the strongmen of the Ancient Desolate World gathered at the Tai Chu Ancient Land, ancient beings looked towards the depths of the void with cold eyes.

"Even the Demon Clan has sent their strongmen!"

"Hmph, what audacity! Do these demons not fear that our Human Clan will rise up in unison and annihilate them right here—"

However,

though they said so,

no one acted first.

The most crucial matter now was the battle between the Divine Martial Gu Family and the Ancient Xia Family.

At this moment,

the void trembled.

A domineering aura swept down from the heavens, as an immensely grand figure shattered the void and approached. His pale golden eyes were like the Great Sun, exuding a terrifying aura that made hearts tremble.

"Xia Family Thirteenth Ancestor!"

"Xia Tianjun!"

"Hiss... As expected from a supreme being of the Ancient Wilderness Era, an existence able to contend with Great Emperors!"

"Rumors say that if this man hadn't been born in the wrong era, he might have proved the Emperor Realm. Now, it seems the rumors are true!"

Upon seeing Xia Tianjun arrive, many cultivators were inwardly breathless, that terrifying aura causing their spirits to quake.

At this moment,

they truly understood what it meant to be a supreme being of the Ancient Wilderness Era.

What it meant to be an ultimate existence capable of contending with Great Emperors.

At this juncture,

Xia Tianjun appeared, his pale golden eyes gazing into the depths of the Tai Chu Ancient Land, as if his eyes could penetrate endless void and see the true spectacle within.

Simultaneously,

a terrifying abyss-like aura rose from within the Tai Chu Ancient Land, seemingly warning Xia Tianjun.

The terrifying extreme aura caused all the cultivators' breathing to involuntarily slow for a half-second, almost producing a feeling of suffocation.

"This is the existence within the depths of the Tai Chu Ancient Land!"

"Truly terrifying..."

Taoist Monarch Taixuan's face was aghast, the aura emanating gave even this ancient Saint a feeling of trepidation.

Should such an existence awaken, it could surely wipe him out effortlessly.

Taoist Monarch Taixuan wasn't the only one shocked.

The other cultivators were equally astonished.

Though they knew the depths of the Tai Chu Ancient Land were unfathomable, actually experiencing this aura still left them inwardly shocked.

"Interesting!"

"Once this battle is settled, this Emperor shall take a journey into the Tai Chu Ancient Land himself!"

Xia Tianjun smiled faintly, an aura of battle intent surging from his body. Then he looked at other directions in the void and abruptly extended his right hand, instantly shattering the sky for ten thousand miles.

Several hidden demon figures in the void were suddenly exposed, their gazes towards Xia Tianjun filled with terror.

"Xia Tianjun, we have not initiated any action against the Ancient Xia Family..."

Before they could finish, Xia Tianjun squeezed his hand, and several demon lords and great demons, celebrated as Saints or Great Saints, couldn't even let out a scream before being crushed to death, their bodies and souls obliterated.

"Mere demons dare to tread arrogantly in the Ancient Desolate World, truly thinking our Human Clan is to be trifled with?"

Xia Tianjun's expression was indifferent, casually crushing several demon lords as if squashing a few ants.

This scene,

shocked everyone further.

At this moment,

in the void,

a figure clad in a green robe approached, each step seeming to move him across ten thousand miles of space, and under his feet, the rules of the Great Tao formed flowers, his aura seeming to merge with heaven and earth.

Upon seeing the newcomer, the indifferent expression on Xia Tianjun's face finally showed a change.

"Interesting, to think someone could reach this point in the End of Dharma Era!"

Others might not discern the depth of Gu Qingfeng, but how could Xia Tianjun not see? The opponent was no ancient powerhouse; there wasn't even a hint of decay in his aura.

Clearly, the opponent was young, having reached such a level in the End of Dharma Era.

However,

understanding this point,

was the very reason Xia Tianjun felt a bit shocked.

After all, as prodigious as he was, he hadn't managed to break the shackles of the End of Dharma Era, let alone achieve the Quasi-Emperor Realm during these times.
