Chapter 1554 - 131: Meeting the Holy Emperor

Chapter 1554: Chapter 131: Meeting the Holy Emperor

Mist shrouded, rainbow light tunnels through.

Passing through the gates of the Fighting Holy Peak, there lies another Grotto Heaven within. Several towering mountains rise to the sky, resembling the remains of giant beasts, uneven and scattered.

The Saint Prince advances at the forefront.

This is the place where the ancient sages of Great Ape Mountain attained nirvana. For a thousand years, several Holy Emperors have secluded themselves here at the Fighting Holy Peak... each towering mountain here is a Grotto Heaven of the ancient sages.

"Such strong might."

Wu Jiu sighed.

In terms of heritage.

The Heavenly Phoenix Palace where he resides is not inferior to Great Ape Mountain.

However, compared to the Fighting Holy Peak, the Phoenix Fire Cave Heaven lacks a bit of grandeur. Every mountain here stands as tall as the sky, even strong people of the Yang God Realm dare not enter easily.

"Do not act rashly."

The Saint Prince advised seriously: "The Taoist Intent here comes not only from the various Holy Emperors over the centuries... but also from super strong persons who survived the Great Tribulation a thousand years ago."

"A super strong person who survived a thousand years ago?"

Silver Moon’s pupils slightly contracted.

He had a bit of understanding about the ancient history from a millennia ago.

That Great Tribulation nearly slaughtered ninety-nine percent of the Great Divine Ability Users, those who survived... were only at the Heavenly Human Realm.

"I have heard that a thousand years ago, Great Ape Mountain had a peerless Heavenly Pride."

Peacock Venerable said: "That Heavenly Pride was born in the last golden era before the Great Tribulation descended, overwhelming all enemies, and could be termed ’the first of the current age’."

"Such a person existed?"

Master Ni Yu was surprised.

Peacock Venerable said solemnly: "When destiny reaches its end, great talents emerge accordingly. Back then, in two worlds, numerous Heavenly Prides competed for supremacy. Eventually, the Demon Country had three strongest who arrogantly looked down upon all, ascending the Mountain Peak... these three were ’Qing Huang’ of Heavenly Phoenix Palace, ’White Dragon’ of Ancient Dragon Court, and ’Little Ape King’ of Great Ape Mountain."

"Lord Qing Huang was the creator of the Phoenix Fire Cave Heaven."

Wu Jiu nodded.

The Heavenly Phoenix Palace atop the Heavenly Peak is indeed the handiwork of Lord Qing Huang!

"Little Ape King was a strong person of the same level as Qing Huang."

The Saint Prince looked up and said: "This Fighting Holy Peak... was built by Little Ape King. See that highest mountain ahead? That is what Little Ape King transformed into after passing away."

At the end of the Pocket World.

There lies a mountain several thousand feet tall.

The mountain peak reaches the sky, surrounded by gleaming golden light and fire.

"It’s a pity the Great Tribulation came."

Peacock Venerable lamented: "Unable to witness the brilliance of such an unparalleled person."

"At least he was Heavenly People..."

Master Ni Yu felt a thousand emotions: "Perhaps figures like Little Ape King, Qing Huang, and White Dragon are strong people even among Heavenly People."

"My father the Holy Emperor’s mountain is beside the mountain remains left by Little Ape King."

The Saint Prince said: "I have limited access to this Ancient Peak... follow me and be careful not to trigger any restrictions."

...

...

A moment later.

The Saint Prince arrived at the foot of an Ancient Peak.

"Is this where the Holy Emperor meditates?"

Silver Moon Great Venerable lifted his head, surveying the surroundings.

This Ancient Peak seemed ordinary... shrouded in thick mist, with floating clusters of light and fire. These light fires contained respectable Taoist Intent, which he dared not touch, cautiously following the Saint Prince along the narrow mountain.

"Earth Abyss Inheritance resonates with bloodline."

The Saint Prince calmly said: "Holy Emperor is not merely an ’empty name’. To become the king of Great Ape Mountain... one must become the king of the mountains. Every Holy Emperor has to ascend the ’Mountain Remains’ left by Little Ape King, only by reaching the summit do they deserve the name Holy Emperor."

"Not much different from Heavenly Phoenix Palace..."

Wu Jiu thought to himself.

To become the throne of Heavenly Phoenix Palace, one must refine the Karmic Fire within Phoenix Fire Cave Heaven.

The Sky Vault Inheritance created by Qing Huang requires the Karmic Fire as a medium to push the Phoenix Clan bloodline of cultivators to the limit.

Little Ape King was a strong person of the same level as Qing Huang.

Its inheritance bore no major surprise.

However.

The contention situation of Great Ape Mountain greatly differs from that of Heavenly Phoenix Palace.

Heavenly Phoenix Palace has a Great Palace Master, and although there are internal disputes below, none dare to challenge the throne selection.

Now, the throne position is determined to be inherited by Jiang Huang.

Thus, Jiang Huang’s refining of the Karmic Fire within Phoenix Fire Cave Heaven is only a matter of time.

"Since the throne is within reach, why not attempt to ascend the mountain directly?"

Peacock Venerable suddenly spoke.

He could see that the Supreme Holy Mountain left by Little Ape King is a huge inheritance.

Ascending the Mountain Peak and being crowned as emperor, is not just obtaining a virtual title.

Such inheritance.

Is even more enticing than most Ancient Realm inheritances in the world.

"I... can’t ascend."

The Saint Prince’s steps slightly hesitated.

He sighed lightly, his tone somewhat helpless.

"I’ve tried more than once over the years."

The Saint Prince said helplessly: "The difficulty of ascending the Supreme Holy Mountain is extraordinarily high... Initially, I thought it was a realm issue, but even after promoting to Yang God, I still can’t ascend, not even taking a single step."

"Not even a single step?"

Peacock was a bit surprised.

To know.

Even against strong persons of the Fifth Realm of Yang God, the Saint Prince nowadays is not at all afraid.

To have reached this point, yet unable to take the first step?!

"..."

Wu Jiu’s expression was complicated.

He was the only one present who could understand the Saint Prince’s feelings.

In Heavenly Phoenix Palace, who doesn’t want to be the throne?

But without the permission of the Great Palace Master, who could refine the Karmic Fire in Phoenix Fire Cave Heaven?

There is a treasure mountain before you, yet you cannot mine it yourself.

"Ascending the Supreme Holy Mountain likely requires some sort of qualification."

The Saint Prince said lightly: "My father... seems to have forgotten to leave this qualification for me. Until now, I can’t enter the Supreme Holy Mountain."

He may have the Spirit Sun Rod and the Golden Decree, but lacks the qualification to ascend the Supreme Holy Mountain.

How ridiculous is this?

"What a pity."

Peacock Venerable seeing the situation only softly agreed.

The group continued forward, eventually arriving at the end of the Ancient Peak. There was no magnificent palace nor resplendent great hall, the place of the Holy Emperor’s retreat was within the crevice of the valley. Obscure heavenly light fell along the stone wall, here even lacked any pavilion, following the natural terrain, with no cover.

Beneath the mountain was just a simple layer of green mat grass.

"The Holy Emperor... retreated in such a place?"

Master Ni Yu furrowed her brow.

It was hard for her to imagine that a strongest who suppressed the Demon Country cultivated in such a simple place.

"Yes."

The Saint Prince smiled slightly.

"The Holy Emperor... is his flesh body intact?"

Silver Moon was startled.

He did not see the flesh body of the Holy Emperor.

"Father... is here."

The Saint Prince stopped, stretched out his hand, and touched the mountain, calmly saying: "He... became part of the Holy Mountain."

Look closely.

One would discover.

In the mountain beside the mat grass, there is a faint protruding outline.

It seems to be a shell, sitting with its back to the people, probably due to the passage of time or for other reasons... this shell over half of it has merged into the vast mountain body reaching the sky. Even if the group tries hard to see, they can only make out a back, as for other details, they can’t identify more.

"This is the Holy Emperor?!"

Even Peacock Venerable finds it unbelievable.

The legendary Holy Emperor...

Turned into this appearance!
