440: Conquer

Golden Crow Great Emperor's expression was one of suppressed anger.

Wang Dong, during the era of Dark Turmoil, indeed did not lead the charge against the Dark Supreme.

However, he also did not stand out. These people were not only criticizing Wang Dong but, to some extent, also criticizing him.

He naturally could not tolerate such a thing.

The people in the teahouse instantly felt their scalps tingle at this sight.

Even the storyteller dared not utter a single word of discussion.

For a time, a hint of fear quietly became associated with Wang Dong's reputation.

Of course, Wang Dong was unaware of such matters, and even if he were, he would not take them to heart.

At this moment, he was observing the ancient scriptures of the three Dominators of the Netherworld Reincarnation.

A faint layer of light already enveloped his body.

If the Lord of Reincarnation and others were present, they would surely be greatly astonished to see such a scene.

Because what Wang Dong was currently manifesting was precisely the true meaning of Reincarnation.

This clearly indicated that he had achieved some comprehension by resonating with the Great Dao of Reincarnation to accomplish this.

Before this, among the three Dominators of the Netherworld Reincarnation, only the Lord of Reincarnation could do so; the other three were involved with other Dao principles.

Moreover, throughout history, very few had been able to reach this step.

Yet, Wang Dong had actually achieved it at this moment.

And not only that, but two unique Dao rhythms, Netherworld and Hell, subsequently appeared on Wang Dong's body.

Evidently, at this time, Wang Dong had already begun his initial research into all three Dao principles of the Netherworld Reincarnation.

Although this was still a long way from re-manifesting Reincarnation, the beginning itself was an extremely difficult task.

However, Wang Dong's expression at this time was not good.

He discovered that while the three Dao principles did complement each other, achieving Fusion was still far off.

This was not to say that Wang Dong's understanding was insufficient, but rather that these three simply could not re-enact Netherworld Reincarnation; it seemed some crucial elements were missing.

Wang Dong thought long and hard but came up with nothing, so he simply put the matter aside and turned his attention to the three scriptures themselves.

It had to be admitted that the Legacy passed down from the Mythological Era, even now, still provided him with much benefit.

If he could collect all the Great Emperor scriptures in the Universe, he would surely gain even more.

However, there were many sectarian biases in the Universe; how difficult would it be to collect them all?

He would almost have to visit each Great Emperor Dao lineage one by one, and even then, some might not exist, with some even having disappeared into the river of history.

The best solution was to directly attack the Life Forbidden Zone and seize them from the Great Emperors still in existence.

Wang Dong pondered for a moment and opened the treasure bottle containing the three Dominators of the Netherworld Reincarnation.

The three were currently in a Divine Soul state.

Given their arrogance, they would naturally rather die than be captured by Wang Dong.

For Great Emperor figures who had once been invincible in an era and possessed astonishing talent, this was an insult.

However, Wang Dong had Sealed their Divine Soul power, and they could only maintain their soul body state at this moment.

They could basically do nothing but passively await Wang Dong's disposal.

The moment they sensed the bottle cap open, the three Divine Soul phantoms all looked towards Wang Dong.

"So, is it time to embark on our journey?"

The Lord of Reincarnation spoke indifferently.

Although he had lingered in the long river of time for too long, he still pursued eternal life to this day.

But at this moment, facing death, he displayed a sense of calm.

The dignity of a Great Emperor forbade him from showing weakness to others.

The Nether Emperor and the Divine Bull Suppressing Prison Emperor were also the same.

The only difference was that both of them sat cross-legged, with their eyes closed.

They did not spare Wang Dong another glance from beginning to end.

In their eyes, even though Wang Dong could now control their lives, they would not stoop to compromising their integrity.

Time passed by minute by minute.

Wang Dong remained silent for a long time.

He looked at the three inside the bottle, a thoughtful expression in his eyes.

After a moment, he spoke loudly.

"I can give you a chance to live."

As soon as these words were spoken, the Divine Soul phantoms of the three trembled instantly.

Even the Nether Emperor and the Divine Bull Suppressing Prison Emperor opened their eyes.

"Conditions..."

The Lord of Reincarnation spoke indifferently.

How could such a thing be without conditions?

If their roles were reversed, and they stood in Wang Dong's position,

They would absolutely not let go of such mortal enemies.

Not directly silencing them could even be considered merciful.

Let alone keeping them alive for so long.

In fact, in their view, Wang Dong doing such a thing at this time was somewhat unwise.

However, since Wang Dong dared to do so, he probably had his reasons.

Moreover, this was inherently a good thing for them.

If they could live, setting aside the sacrifice of dignity, it might be worth considering.

Seeing that all three of them were moved, Wang Dong thought for a moment and immediately spoke.

"I want you to join me in attacking the Life Forbidden Zone."

As soon as these words were spoken, the three fell silent.

They looked at each other, unable to grasp Wang Dong's specific objective.

"You have taken on the identity of the Ancient Sacred Body and wish to seek benefits for the Human Race?"

The Lord of Reincarnation spoke softly, his brows slightly furrowed, clearly somewhat puzzled.

In his opinion, Wang Dong's actions were somewhat baseless.

Throughout history, ancient Great Emperors, including those with astonishing Physiques who achieved Major Achievement, mostly resisted the Dark Supreme and attacked the Life Forbidden Zone.

However, the vast majority were passive defenses; even if some were proactive, it was due to grievances or Karma issues.

Someone like Wang Dong... seven hundred years ago, when facing the Dark Turmoil, he only had a confrontation with the Fish-Dragon Emperor, and then he entered the Bronze Ancient Ship, becoming a Dominator of a Life Forbidden Zone.

Now, 700 years have passed.

The era of Dark Turmoil has long ended, and the Golden Crow Great Emperor stands supreme, his Emperor Dao suspended above all living beings.

At this time, Wang Dong actually brought up attacking the Life Forbidden Zone.

What was his intention?

Could it be that he wanted to destroy all the Life Forbidden Zones in the Universe, along with all the Dark Supreme, to give the living beings of the world peace, so that they would no longer have to face Dark Turmoil?

This was absolutely an impossible thing.

The Dragon-slaying hero eventually becomes a wicked Dragon.

As long as the greed in human hearts does not dissipate, once one reaches the highest position,

Corruption and evil will inevitably arise.

Just like themselves.

They too had once shone brightly in an era, seeking benefits for the many living beings of the Universe.

But as their lifespan drew closer, as their own lives approached their end, and they were about to lose this high-level power,

They became afraid.

Ultimately, they chose to trade with the beings in the Dark Forbidden Zone, obtaining methods to extend their lives and devouring the Source of Life of all beings in the heavens and earth.

As for where this method originally came from?

No one delved deeply into this point, nor was there any need for such an inquiry.

But now, Wang Dong was in the prime of his life.

He possessed the Ancient Sacred Body, allowing him to live longer than ordinary Dao achievers.

Why would he choose to attack the Life Forbidden Zone now, in the prime of his life?

Was this not inviting trouble for himself?
