The Emperor of a Hundred Ages, born from the fusion of destiny!

Even if the Shui Family produced Great Emperor experts later on,

The disparity in numbers compared to the Heavenly Court was too great.

Moreover, they didn't dare to guess whether the Heavenly Court had more Great Emperor experts hidden away.

Previously, they had all speculated that the Heavenly Court would stop its expansion,

Lacking the capacity to occupy other territories.

Who could have known that in just over half a year, ten Great Emperors would suddenly emerge?

There was nowhere to even seek reason for such a thing.

In the meeting hall, everyone fell silent.

Even if all of them attacked together, they would be no match for a Great Emperor.

Despite their majestic presence before outsiders,

When facing a true powerhouse, they could only call for their Old Ancestor.

The Shui Family Patriarch took a deep breath.

"Even if we hadn't occupied Wuyou Prefecture first, we would have encountered the Heavenly Court sooner or later.

The Heavenly Court's ambitions are known to all. I will go to the Ancestral Land to awaken the Old Ancestor.

Over the years, our Shui Family has maintained contact with the Jin Family. The two families will unite to jointly resist the Heavenly Court.

Furthermore, send people to gather others to stand against the Heavenly Court together.

We do not know if the Heavenly Court has any other hidden cards."

Everyone nodded.

They dispersed to begin making arrangements.

The Shui Family Patriarch arrived at the Ancestral Land.

This was a Small World opened by a powerhouse, where the Old Ancestors remained in seclusion year-round.

As for their Shui Family's Great Ancestor, he had only shown a trace of his presence when the Heavenly Dao became complete,

Before sinking back into endless seclusion.

"The Shui Family Patriarch requests an audience with the Old Ancestor."

The Shui Family Patriarch bowed as he entered the Ancestral Land.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

An opening appeared in the Void Realm.

Shui Mingliang walked inside.

"What is the matter?"

"Old Ancestor, the Heavenly Court is expanding and ten Great Emperors have appeared. I ask the Old Ancestor to leave the Ancestral Land to sever the Heavenly Court's Foundation and protect the people of our Shui Family."

Hearing that ten Great Emperors had appeared,

The Forbidden Ground began to awaken.

A dozen or so Quasi-Emperors were the first to emerge.

They had not yet taken that final step.

Because they were at Peak Quasi-Emperor, they could remain within the Ancestral Land.

A young man dressed in a green robe appeared, looking only about thirty years old.

Seeing this person,

The others all began to bow.

"Greetings, Third Ancestor."

Shui Qing stepped forward.

"Ten Great Emperors have appeared in the Heavenly Court?"

Shui Mingliang nodded.

Shui Qing fell into thought; perhaps this was related to the Southern Border.

Half a year ago, the entire Southern Border was covered in traces left by Lightning Tribulations.

Even he had not dared to step in lightly.

Could it be that those Great Emperors were undergoing their Lightning Tribulations back then?

"I shall go out with you!"

Shui Qing looked at the others.

Back then, these people were the most outstanding juniors of the Shui Family. He hadn't expected that after so many years, they still hadn't taken that final step.

The Shui Family still only had three Great Emperors.

Hearing the dissatisfaction in the Old Ancestor's tone, they had no choice.

Despite having the Old Ancestor's guidance, they had remained stagnant, unable to cross that threshold.

"You all should follow me out as well. Since the Heavenly Dao became complete, the entire Grand Void Heaven Realm has entered a period of upheaval. Perhaps by going out, you might find that sliver of Opportunity."

Everyone nodded.

Shui Mingliang also took a deep breath. With the Old Ancestor taking action, this matter should be resolved.

The Third Ancestor was no ordinary Great Emperor.

He was at the Hundred Ancient Emperor Realm.

Meanwhile, in the Heavenly Court of Kun Province,

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm opened her eyes.

She felt the Luck of the entire Kun Province rising rapidly.

Looking at the power swirling around her,

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm's eyes were filled with pleasant surprise.

Back in the God-Demon Era, the reason she was able to survive was precisely because of her dense Luck.

She hadn't expected that such a good thing would happen after following Chu Xinghe.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm thought of something.

She channeled this sliver of Luck into her body.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

The light sphere within her body grew rapidly.

Even her own power was being devoured.

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm was startled.

She hurriedly drew upon the energy gathered within the stone.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

The entire hall began to tremble.

Outside, the two Hundred Ancient Emperor subjects sensed it.

They formed hand seals,

Which landed upon the entire hall.

They were born with consciousness to protect the Mother Worm,

And to follow the Mother Worm's orders.

At this moment, even they looked toward the hall.

An energy even stronger than theirs was being born.

Presently, the Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm was also startled to see that over eighty percent of the energy in the stone had been consumed.

The energy gathered now was even more than before,

Yet eighty percent of it could be consumed so quickly.

Buzz, buzz.

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm had already reverted to her true form, producing a massive golden cocoon.

A dark-golden Gu worm appeared.

Its Aura rose rapidly.

In a short while, it transformed into a majestic and powerful man.

He was clad in black-gold armor,

With mysterious runes upon his face.

Seeing this child of hers, the Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm's eyes held immense surprise.

She felt a rich power of Luck from this descendant.

More importantly, he was at the Hundred Ancient Emperor Perfection Realm.

No wonder he could draw so much power.

Perhaps in the future, he could even reach the Thousand Ages Emperor Realm.

"From now on, you shall be called Seize One."

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm's thinking was very simple.

She used the four characters of her name—Seize, Heaven, Gu, and Worm—to name her descendants.

The 'Seize' lineage was the most talented and capable of growth.

If not for the incredibly dense Luck, such an Insect Race Genius likely wouldn't have been born.

Seize One knelt on the ground to thank the Insect Queen for the name.

At that moment, the Void Realm rippled.

A gaze looked over.

Seize One's eyes were filled with awe.

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm felt that familiar power.

"Greetings, Master!"

"Not bad. You've worked hard."

Chu Xinghe looked at Seize One, his eyes showing surprise.

"There happens to be someone blind to the situation in Shui Prefecture. You should head over there."

Seize One nodded.

The Insect Queen's Master was their Master.

Chu Xinghe made a movement with his hand.

"Take this. It should be of great use to you."

What Chu Xinghe gave to Seize One was naturally the luck transferring bead.

Because this Seize One had already become a Child of Destiny.

Albeit one belonging to his camp.

The luck transferring bead complemented him perfectly.

Seize One knelt down.

"Thank you, Master, for the treasure. Seize One will not fail your trust."

Chu Xinghe nodded and vanished.

The Heaven-Seizing Gu Worm was also happy that her child had obtained a treasure.

That item looked anything but simple.

After Seize One came out,

He looked at the two Hundred Ancient Emperors.

"Guard the Mother Queen and the Master well. I am going to resolve some trouble."

The two Hundred Ancient Emperors nodded.

They were only at the Early Stage of the Hundred Ancient Emperor Realm.

In the Insect Race, birth order didn't matter; the strongest was the leader.

In Wuyou Prefecture, after Insect One killed the Shui Family's general,

He led the soldiers in a sweeping advance.

In a short while,

The Shui Family's army that had come to block them was completely wiped out.

After the Heavenly Court quickly occupied Wuyou Prefecture,

Insect One led the army directly toward Shui Prefecture.

At the border of Shui Prefecture,

A Great Wall of Steel had already been erected.

Densely packed soldiers stood atop it.

This was a Great Wall of Steel built in haste,

With the purpose of blocking the Heavenly Court's soldiers.

Densely packed runes were inscribed upon the Great Wall of Steel.

As long as anyone dared to approach,

They would pour their power into it, triggering the Divine Stones,

To unleash unparalleled power.

Warships floated in the Void Realm.

Insect One stood above everyone,

Gazing at the Great Wall of Steel.

There was a person there.

Insect One could sense it.

This person was much, much stronger than him.

They of the Insect Race did not fear battle.

At worst, he would detonate himself

To blow this person up.
