Nie Fengyun was deeply puzzled.
He was now an unparalleled Great Emperor, and the spirit within the Wushi Bell was none other than his own elder sister, sharing a bloodline connection that was thicker than water.
The Wushi Bell had long been bound to his soul, making it an exclusive supreme celestial artifact of his.
However, at this moment, the Emperor was only at the cultivation level of a half-step quasi-emperor, and despite the countless years of temporal distance, he could still summon the Wushi Bell?
Even more astonishingly, Nie Fengyun could feel that if it weren't for the blood connection with his sister, the Wushi Bell might have already broken free from his control, shattered the river of time, and responded to Chu Yang's call.
Witnessing the anomaly of the Wushi Bell, all the cultivators understood that the Emperor was summoning it!
It was well-known that the Wushi Bell had always accompanied the Emperor in battles, being one of his most powerful celestial artifacts.
Yet, no one knew how the Emperor had acquired it.
Its origins were extremely mysterious, leaving no trace.
But now it seemed that the Wushi Bell, which had accompanied the Emperor for countless ages, was likely acquired at this very moment!
Originally, it seemed to them that the Emperor was in a near-death situation, but a significant change appeared to be unfolding.
Whether it was the Emperor breaking through to a half-step quasi-emperor or obtaining the Wushi Bell, both factors could easily alter the battle's outcome!
The Emperor's combat power had always been described as terrifying. Now, having become a half-step quasi-emperor, even if he couldn't obliterate the quasi-emperor powerhouses before him, he could definitely preserve his life and escape smoothly.
If he acquired the Wushi Bell, the Emperor might even have the capital to battle these five quasi-emperors!
…
A violent explosion erupted over the Sea of Reincarnation.
Immediately afterward, an infinite divine light pierced through the constraints of the Sea of Reincarnation, shooting straight into the sky and bursting into the firmament.
The endless waves shattered, spreading in all directions, as if capable of destroying everything. The astonishing power of suppressing all laws burst forth from the Sea of Reincarnation.
The dense divine might exploded across the heavens and earth, the Milky Way hung upside down, and the sun and moon were overturned by this terrifying power.
At this moment, the stars in the sky were all shattered into dust by the supreme pressure, exploding one by one in the eyes of the onlookers, disappearing from existence.
Soon, an ancient, vast bell slowly appeared above the Sea of Reincarnation, emitting overwhelming pressure that made people involuntarily kneel and prostrate.
The five quasi-emperors were filled with incredulous shock in their eyes!
Clearly, they recognized this ancient bell!
Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so moved!
"How is this possible!"
"This is the celestial weapon used by our ancestors, the Wushi Bell!"
"At the end of the celestial path, who will stand at the peak? A glimpse of the Wushi path leads to emptiness. This shows how powerful our ancestors were!"
"How can this guy control the Wushi Bell of our ancestors?"
The five quasi-emperors were filled with horror, their divine senses in utter chaos, as if witnessing a great terror.
For powerhouses at their level, very few things in this world could move them.
This Wushi Bell had caused an unparalleled bloodbath in the ancient era. Their ancestors had suppressed the invasion of the extraterrestrial evil race with the Wushi Bell. For tens of thousands of years, those alien races dared not set foot on the Continent of All Spirits.
Such a celestial weapon, after their ancestor's path dissipation, could no longer be controlled by anyone, remaining in the vast Sea of Reincarnation.
Even a shred of the Wushi Bell's divinity could unleash world-destroying power, yet they could never awaken this celestial weapon.
But Chu Yang could, awakening the weapon of their ancestors?
And the Wushi Bell had appeared in response to his call?
For countless ages since their ancestor's path dissipation, the Wushi Bell had not shown itself, yet at this moment, it reappeared!
Outside the Heavenly Emperor's realm.
The expressions of the cultivators were fascinating. They hadn't expected the Emperor to acquire the Wushi Bell in this manner!
Originally, they thought this powerful celestial weapon must have been discovered by the Emperor in some secret realm in his early years.
But now it seemed, the truth was otherwise.
The Wushi Bell turned out to be a celestial weapon once used by an ancient celestial ancestor.
What surprised them most was how the Emperor gained the celestial weapon's approval.
Every celestial weapon had its own spirit, choosing its master based on extremely strict criteria. If one didn't meet its standards, they couldn't wield the celestial weapon's power.
This was why the Wushi Bell had remained silent for ages after its master's path dissipation.
Yet the Emperor, with only half-step quasi-emperor cultivation, had gained the weapon's approval and summoned it with just a call?
Moreover, it seemed the Wushi Bell belonged to Chu Yang originally, as if there was a deep connection between them, making the Wushi Bell appear at his call.
Incredible!
Ye Fan stepped forward at this moment and said in a deep voice, "Although I haven't cultivated the Heavenly Dao, I have some understanding of it. I once read in ancient texts that weapons capable of reaching the level of emperor weapons, or even higher, are born from the Heavenly Dao and are nurtured by it."
"So, if one cultivates the Heavenly Dao, the Heavenly Sovereign resonates with these emperor weapons and can directly wield them! Moreover, as the Emperor continues to cultivate the Heavenly Dao and grows stronger, all emperor weapons in the world will be at his command, and at his call, a myriad of weapons will obey!"
Hearing this, the cultivators heaved a slight sigh of relief, though their expressions remained one of astonishment.
It's just absurd! Cultivating the Heavenly Dao, this is just too unbelievably powerful!
The cultivators fell into silence.
Perhaps the Emperor's invincible legend began at this moment.
After all, it was during that time that the Emperor's formidable reputation started to take shape, exerting pressure on the three realms.
He once swept through the entire three realms with just himself and the Wushi Bell, making all so-called strong beings in the three realms tremble in fear.
From then on, the Emperor might have embarked on this blood-stained, invincible path to become the Supreme Emperor.
Regarding the Wushi Bell, the beings of the All Spirits Continent were all terrified of it, but compared to the Wushi Bell, they feared its master, the Emperor, even more! The Emperor's life was filled with countless battles, his hands stained with an unimaginable amount of blood.
The myriad beings deeply despised his atrocities and wished to see him dismembered into thousands of pieces!
