Chapter 1879

Emperor Sheng was a tragic figure. When he was young, he was a peerless talent. However, he was unable to break through to the Saint Plane and fell into the abyss. All of his lofty aspirations were for naught.

On the brink of death, he couldn't rest in peace. He wanted to see his own flesh and blood kill each other.

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince and Prince Wu Lie stood on either side. One was white and the other was black. One was a solar flare and the other was a sunspot. It was as if they were destined to oppose each other. They had to fight to the death.

Amidst the tense atmosphere, Emperor Sheng finally walked into the main hall with the help of his frail grandson.

Emperor Sheng was as thin as a stick. His eyes were cloudy and lifeless. Even the sun mark between his eyebrows was as dim as the setting sun.

The little grandson was only six years old. He had red lips and white teeth. He was innocent and full of vitality.

When the old man and the young man entered together, it made Emperor Sheng look even more lifeless. It was as if he was about to die.

Behind Emperor Sheng, an old crow followed him like a shadow. It didn't transform like the other crow generals. Instead, it was in its most primitive form.

Its feathers were as black as ink. They were so deep that they looked like black holes. However, the tail of each feather was emitting a reddish-gold light.

Unlike Emperor Sheng, although it looked old, its eyes were as sharp as an eagle's.

It was the old chief of the Three-legged Golden Crow Tribe. When Gu Chen saw the old crow, he knew who it was.

It was rumored that this old clan leader was extremely loyal and devoted his entire life to protect the old Emperor Sheng. When the old Emperor Sheng failed his tribulation, his enemies took advantage of his weakness. It was the old clan leader who fought desperately to save the old Emperor Sheng's life.

Emperor Sheng needed help to walk. It was as if a gust of wind could blow him over. However, the old crow's steps were steady. As it walked, it locked onto every direction. No matter which direction the enemy attacked from, they couldn't get around it to attack Emperor Sheng.

The old man, the young man, and the crow entered the main hall. The Flaming Sun Crown Prince and Prince Wu Lie led the way. Many cultivators bowed to them.

"At ease."

Emperor Sheng waved his hand. His voice was old, hoarse, and weak.

His turbid eyes glanced at the foreign cultivators present and sighed softly.

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. I won't say anything else. No matter which one of you is finally recognized by the Ancestral Land, I hope you will be worthy of your identity."

Emperor Sheng patted his grandson on the shoulder as he spoke in a serious tone.

The little royal grandson immediately understood what he meant and carefully helped him turn around.

"Let's go to the entrance of the ancestral land."

Emperor Cheng said. He didn't intend to listen to the two princes' pleasantries. He seemed to be quite disinterested.

His words and actions were completely normal in the eyes of the crowd.

The battle between the Flaming Sun Crown Prince and Prince Wu Lie had spread from the Realm of Rising Sun to the Seven Kingdoms. Emperor Sheng knew about it. However, even if he knew about it, he couldn't do anything about it. He was already old.

As a father, he was disappointed. As an emperor, he had also lost control of the situation. It was not strange for him to feel this way.

The two princes didn't mind the disappointment in their father's voice. At this point, the Flaming Sun Crown Prince and Wu Lie's eyes were burning with ambition. They couldn't wait to kill each other and ascend the throne.

Emperor Sheng slowly led the way. The two teams followed behind. They could see Crow Generals patrolling around them.

The walls of Emperor Cheng's Palace were very tall and wide. There were grooves on the walls at regular intervals. Crow Generals stood guard in the grooves, looking like lanterns.

The towering palace walls and the fact that Crow General had sentries every few steps ensured that the defense of Imperial Palace Cheng was impenetrable. Even a fly would have a hard time invading this place.

Under Emperor Sheng's guidance, the two teams quickly passed through a mechanism and entered an underground palace.

Ancient stone steps in the underground palace extended all the way down. At the bottom of the steps was a huge glowing spell formation.

Magma flowed on the surface of every line in the spell formation. At a glance, it looked like there were countless dragons dancing in the spell formation. It was a spectacular sight!

The temperature in the underground palace rose significantly. When they walked down the stone steps and arrived at the periphery of the huge spell formation, it was as if they were in a desert.

"A place where the Burning Sun Tribe and the Three-legged Golden Crow Tribe was born must have an unusually hot environment.

This is not good for us, "Clay Bodhisattva whispered to Gu Chen as he looked at the spell formation.

The most suitable environment for him was undoubtedly a swamp. Although they hadn't entered the ancestral land of the Burning Sun Tribe yet, they could imagine that it was a place that lacked water.

If that was the case, his advantage of being able to transform into a swamp would be greatly reduced. If they encountered danger, it would be even more difficult for them to escape.

"Since we're already here, we might as well take things as they come. Apart from the two princes, no one else has an advantage," Gu Chen said calmly.

Clay Bodhisattva could only nod his head. He hoped that the situation in the ancestral land was better than he had imagined.

When they arrived at their destination, Emperor Sheng let go of his grandson's hand. He took a few steps forward and started chanting.

As he chanted, the huge spell formation in front of them began to shine brightly. Countless Dao patterns emerged from the ground and slowly converged in the air, forming two light doors.

Boom! Boom!

The two light doors opened at the same time. A strong heat wave blew out from the inside. The air inside seemed to be distorted due to the high temperature. It was difficult to see what was going on inside.

"Alright, the ancestral land has been opened. Now, you can enter from the different light doors.

"The two light doors are the same. They will randomly teleport you to different areas of the ancestral land. This will prevent you from killing each other at the beginning.

"Like I said before, only those who have obtained the approval of the ancestral land can inherit the throne. I didn't explain it clearly before, so I'll explain it now.

"After you enter the ancestral land, the light doors will automatically disappear. The test will last for a total of ten days. After ten days, the light doors will open again. At that time, whoever brings back the most sun's true soul from the ancestral land will inherit the throne. "

When Emperor Sheng finished explaining the rules of the test, Yan Yang and Wu Lie's eyes lit up.

They knew what the sun's true soul was. It was a great supplement for the Burning Sun Tribe and the Three-legged Golden Crow Tribe. The ancestral land had always been rich in it.

However, due to the overharvesting of the sun's true soul, the ancestral land had become extremely rare.

In addition, the environment in the ancestral land had become extremely vile. It could even endanger the lives of the Burning Sun Tribe members. Therefore, the ancestral land was sealed.

The two princes had already guessed the contents of the test for the reopening of the ancestral land. Finding the sun's true soul wasn't unexpected.

"Big Brother, which door do you want to choose?"

Wu Lie looked at the Flaming Sun Crown Prince and asked.

"What about you? If I let you choose, which one would you choose? "

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince didn't answer. Instead, he kicked the question back to Wu Lie.

"Haha, how about this. We'll decide by drawing lots. That way, we won't have to be suspicious of each other."

Wu Lie sneered. He knew that the Crown Prince was the same as him. Both of them didn't feel comfortable letting the other party choose first.

The reason was simple. Both of them had their own concerns. They were worried that their father had already been secretly biased. If the other party chose first, the area that the light door would send them to would have an advantage.

"Sure. That's good."

The Flaming Sun Crown Prince didn't have any objections. This made Wu Lie feel more at ease.

Thus, the two of them drew lots. The method was also very fair. In the end, Wu Lie was assigned to the light door on the left, while the Flaming Sun Crown Prince was assigned to the right.

Emperor Sheng saw everything that happened between the two of them. However, he was unusually calm and didn't say anything.

Gu Chen's gaze was mostly on Emperor Sheng. When he saw Emperor Sheng's reaction, he frowned and seemed to be deep in thought.

He didn't give Emperor Sheng much time to think. After choosing the entrance, the two teams entered.

Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh.

One figure after another entered the light door. This included Gu Chen, the Clay Bodhisattva, Mourning Yan, and Ming Shou!

After everyone entered, the light door dissipated. However, Emperor Sheng didn't have any intention of leaving. He found a place at the edge of the matrix and sat down.

He sat cross-legged and closed his eyes. He was like an old monk in meditation.

Old Crow silently guarded Emperor Sheng. The light in the underground palace gradually dimmed. He looked at the emperor who had long lost his vitality. A complicated look appeared in his eyes.
