All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

181: Chapter 180 The End of the Primordial Era, the Early Establishment of the Imperial Court”The dharma-ending age is an era of recovery. Back then, the Ancestor of the Heavenly Secret Clan perished just to calculate this era.”

Shen sighed with emotion.

Thinking back to those years, the establishment of the Imperial Court’s order caused many great clans across the heavens to celebrate.

Later...

It was nothing more than the dragon slayer eventually becoming the Dragon.

For the so-called golden age of the Imperial Court.

For the so-called eternal existence.

So many great clans completely vanished within the time of antiquity.

”What was the Imperial Court trying to calculate back then?”

Ye Xiu was somewhat surprised; he knew that all the Imperial Court’s schemes were to let Xing Mu devour the Main World.

But the Imperial Court of that time had already become the Dominator of the Main World. Why would the Human Sovereign have such a thought?

There must have been certain reasons.

Hearing Ye Xiu’s question.

Shen laughed and explained, ”Back then, because of the appearance of Venerable Mu, the Imperial Court entered its most prosperous era. It was also during that period that someone returned from the River of Time.”

”Someone returned?”

”Yes, it was the Guixing Pavilion, a hegemon-level power that had ventured out during the Taichu Era. Rumor has it that there are even Immortal Venerables within the Guixing Pavilion.”

”You mean the Imperial Court went to war with the Guixing Pavilion back then, which led to the series of events that followed?”

”Yes, and no.”

”How so?”

”Back then, the Imperial Court was extremely powerful and didn’t give any Face even to the powers of the Boundary Sea. It wasn’t until the Human Sovereign returned heavily injured that the subsequent events occurred.”

Hearing Shen’s explanation.

Ye Xiu had a sudden realization.

No wonder the Imperial Court schemed against the Main World back then; it turns out they had suffered a setback in the Boundary Sea and wanted to gain more power.

Speaking of which, are there other powers in the Boundary Sea besides the Guixing Pavilion?

There should be.

The fact that the three of them, including the Human Sovereign, could end the Taichu Era was likely because many of the Supreme Realms had already left the Main World.

Otherwise, with the strength of those three, they could never have swept through the Taichu Era.

Even if they were strong, the Human Sovereign at that time was at most an Alternative Venerable, while the Blade Master and Great Heavenly Venerable only had King Realm strength at most.

How could they have swept through the Taichu Era during its peak?

So there is only one explanation.

At the end of the Taichu Era, many Supreme Realms had already left the Main World to settle in the Boundary Sea.

He shook his head slightly.

Ye Xiu looked into the depths of Chaos.

The bloody light grew more distant.

Having erupted with all his essence blood, the Peng Demon’s speed was beyond imagination. Even with the two of them chasing at full speed, the distance was gradually widening.

”Your Excellency, there’s no need to be anxious. After being heavily injured and then erupting with all his essence blood, the Peng Demon likely won’t last much longer.”

”You seem to know the Peng Demon very well?”

”The Peng Demon and I are old acquaintances. We were in the same batch of Supreme Realms who joined the Imperial Court, so we’re quite familiar.”

”Heh... The end of the Taichu Era, the early establishment of the Imperial Court—it must have been quite exciting back then.” Ye Xiu looked at Shen with a faint smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

”The end of the Taichu Era wasn’t weak. It was just that the three of them rose too quickly. By the time Venerable Hong reacted, the Human Sovereign already had enough strength to contend with him.”

Shen sighed slightly, ”Back then, when the Imperial Court was first established, it wasn’t just the Human Race. Several powerful races like the Qilin and Baize were also founders. Unfortunately, except for the Human Sovereign and his two companions, all the other founders were wiped out.”

”You certainly know a lot.”

”Naturally. I was born in the Taichu Era and am the Ancestor of the God Race. I didn’t participate in the conflicts of the Main World and was only later incorporated by the Imperial Court.”

”In the midst of chaotic warfare, how can one stay out of it? That’s too unrealistic.”
