At the same time, a long, resonant cry suddenly echoed across the heavens and earth.
The cultivators' attention was immediately drawn to this sound, and they all turned their gaze toward its source.
At the edge of the Eastern Zhou land, a phoenix engulfed in scorching, blazing flames soared towards the sky. The fiery phoenix leaped through layers of celestial layers, heading straight for the Kunlun Mountains where the Emperor was located.
With the appearance of this fiery phoenix, terrifying celestial phenomena began to manifest in the sky.
On the clouds above, endless auspicious light flickered, casting a radiance that illuminated the entire horizon.
Sacred lotus flowers, imbued with divine essence, began to appear at the edge of the clouds.
These lotuses flew toward the phoenix, enhancing its flames with an even more divine and noble aura.
The phoenix soared across the sky, its wings spreading wide, surrounded by boundless flames of the Great Dao. It was a breathtaking sight, dazzling and awe-inspiring, casting a brilliant glow upon the world.
Moreover, the phoenix seemed to be holding a golden seal in its beak.
The ancient golden seal was covered with intricate, dark patterns that intertwined with the essence of heaven and earth, resonating with the Great Dao.
The terror of this seal struck fear into everyone's hearts.
The boundless pressure emanating from it seemed capable of suppressing the entire world, creating an overwhelming sense of dread.
In the face of this seal, the myriad methods of the world, the Dao sects, appeared insignificant and easily subdued!
Everyone's gaze was filled with fiery anticipation as they stared at the seal held by the phoenix.
The phoenix then sped up and flew to the summit of Kunlun Mountain, landing atop the human ancestral temple.
Upon reaching Chu Yang's side, it circled around him several times and let out a long cry.
Finally, the phoenix chose to present the seal to Chu Yang!
Chu Yang calmly accepted the seal, and then paid his respects to the phoenix, which had radiated auspiciousness.
After completing its mission, the phoenix chose to depart!
All the cultivators who witnessed this scene were left stunned!
They could clearly sense the terrifying fluctuations emanating from the seal.
The pressure was so overwhelming that even the aura of an Emperor-level powerhouse seemed insignificant before this seal.
Someone exclaimed, "This is an immortal artifact! This seal is an unparalleled immortal artifact!"
The cultivators were all in shock, unable to believe that such a powerful immortal artifact truly existed in this world!
Countless Emperor-level beings had searched for millennia in hopes of obtaining an unparalleled immortal artifact but had never succeeded.
Yet now, such a fearsome artifact had appeared out of nowhere and was delivered directly into the hands of the Emperor, causing immense discomfort among the cultivators.
In their view, what virtue or capability did the Emperor possess to deserve such a treasure?
In terms of merit, which Emperor present was not superior to the Emperor in question?
Yet, all these benefits seemed to have been acquired by the Emperor.
Countless cultivators could not help but gasp in astonishment.
Their hearts were filled with a chilling sense of unease.
Upon further reflection, it seemed that the Emperor had indeed acquired two unparalleled immortal artifacts in his lifetime.
On the Myriad Spirits Continent, even artifacts deemed as Imperial Weapons were already rare treasures, difficult to come by.
Let alone immortal artifacts.
With the support of an immortal artifact, even a quasi-Emperor could potentially overcome an Emperor-level powerhouse! This highlights the terrifying nature of immortal artifacts!
Possessing an immortal artifact signifies a qualitative leap for any cultivator.
However, some cultivators quickly noticed a discrepancy and spoke up, "Wait a minute, something doesn't seem right!"
"In our memory, did the Emperor ever possess such an unparalleled immortal artifact? Has he ever used it?"
This question plunged the cultivators into deep thought once more.
They suddenly realized that the Emperor indeed possessed two immortal artifacts, yet they had only ever seen the Emperor wield the Primordial Bell. No one had ever witnessed the Emperor using this immortal artifact seal.
What could be the reason behind this?
Was it because the enemies from the Celestial Alliance were not formidable enough to compel the Emperor to deploy this artifact?
Or did the Emperor have a powerful hidden hand that had never been revealed?
Was even the current situation within the Emperor's expectations?
The truth remained unknown!
Nevertheless, the cultivators were filled with deep trepidation.
The reason was simple: the battle to suppress the Emperor had proceeded too smoothly.
This led them to question whether there were any unexpected changes or hidden factors.
The scene returned to the Heavenly Emperor Mirror.
Chu Yang, holding the seal, emanated a towering aura. At this moment, he seemed like the sovereign of humanity, his overwhelming presence inducing awe.
Within him, a series of insights blossomed as the countless wills of humanity spread in all directions.
Chu Yang's Dao of Humanity principles reached unprecedented heights at this moment.
"Today, we validate the path of humanity."
"For humanity, the will persists, the faith endures, and the torch is passed on!"
"For the Dao, from ancient times to the present, the human race has dwindled, struggling in this era of myriad races, becoming prey to others and reduced to mere ants. I will revive the human race, defeat great enemies, and as the Emperor of humanity, I will lead the human race towards prosperity!"
"As the saying goes, where there's a will, there's a way; sincerity can move even gold and stone!"
"A resolute spirit can challenge the heavens!"
Chu Yang's roar surged into the sky.
These words were like the music of the Great Dao, each word and phrase seemingly solidified, resonating across the Myriad Spirits Continent.
At this moment, all human cultivators on the Myriad Spirits Continent heard this great roar.
They felt a profound sense of enlightenment and raised their gaze toward the summit of Kunlun Mountain.
With closed eyes, they felt the divine sounds within, as if their souls were being purified and elevated.
These words felt like the voice of the Great Dao, imposing a tremendous pressure.
At the same time, endless celestial phenomena appeared in the sky.
The figures of the ancient sages, previously ethereal, now became immensely tangible.
They radiated boundless light, enveloping Chu Yang within.
At this moment, Chu Yang appeared as the true Emperor of Humanity.
Outside the Heavenly Emperor Realm.
The cultivators were stunned by the Emperor's words.
This was the divine voice of the Great Dao.
How could the Emperor utter such divine words at this time? This was almost impossible!
Even ancient Emperors could hardly achieve this!
The faces of countless individuals were filled with shock.
In the image, Chu Yang, clad in snow-white robes, held the Emperor's seal high, his figure becoming extraordinarily majestic.
"Heaven is vigorous; a gentleman should strive for continuous self-improvement; Earth is yielding; a gentleman should carry a virtue as vast as the earth!"
"May our human race be like dragons, may our human race's faith endure, may our human race's torch be passed on, and may it never cease!"
