Chapter 877: The Dawn of a New Era

At this moment, the Ancient Holy Realm had undergone tremendous changes.

The Opening of Ten Thousand Realms came so suddenly that it caught everyone off guard—even the Supreme Ancient Clans were taken by surprise.

The Will of Heaven had awakened.

The remaining five Supremes looked at each other in confusion, their expressions stunned.

“How could this happen? Wasn’t the Opening of Ten Thousand Realms supposed to occur three months later?” All the Supremes felt that something was seriously wrong.

“Will of Heaven, what exactly is going on?”

The remaining five Supremes sensed that the timing of this Opening was completely off, and their previous preparations had been an utter failure.

The first wave of insectoid invasion had already been crushed by that detestable Human Emperor, throwing everything into disarray.

Now, the Opening had arrived far earlier than expected, making the situation even more suspicious.

The Will of Heaven remained silent for a long time, as if also stunned by this sudden turn of events.

As the Will of the Ancient Clans, he controlled everything—even the Opening of Ten Thousand Realms was supposed to unfold under his command.

Meanwhile, deep within the Ancient Clan’s sealed domain, the Emperor of Water and Fire had been immersed in the realm of water and fire fusion cultivation. Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, filled with shock.

“How is this possible…”

The Emperor of Water and Fire sensed an endless surge of power rippling through the void, as if some unfathomable existence was about to awaken.

“It’s as I thought—the era is indeed coming to an end, and those ancient beings have already begun to stir.”

“The fusion of water and fire essence is complete. Originally, I had planned to wait for the Will of Heaven to awaken before slaying him. It seems I must leave earlier than planned now.”

Gazing at the seal above, the Emperor of Water and Fire smirked slightly, then flicked his finger. A surge of water and fire essence erupted forth. This perfectly fused essence contained all elements of creation, instantly shattering the ancient seal.

Boom!

The earth quaked, mountains trembled. The five Supremes’ expressions changed drastically.

“Not good—the Emperor of Water and Fire has broken the seal!” In an instant, the five Supremes appeared in the sky, their faces filled with wariness as they beheld the Emperor of Water and Fire.

To them, all beings across the realms were mere insects, but this Water and Fire Emperor was someone they had always regarded with caution.

Drifting in the void, the Emperor of Water and Fire gazed into the distant expanse. In the blink of an eye, the five Supremes surrounded him.

“Emperor of Water and Fire, you—” one of the Supremes began to speak.

The Emperor gently raised his delicate hand. “There’s no need for words. This era no longer belongs to you. You will fall from your lofty thrones into the dust.”

As soon as these words left his lips, the Emperor vanished from sight.

This sudden disappearance sent shivers down the spines of the five Supremes. They hadn’t sensed even the slightest movement—didn’t even know how he had left.

“How is this possible? How could the Emperor of Water and Fire have become so powerful?”

“Will of Heaven…”

“What did he mean by those words?”

But suddenly, the void trembled violently.

The five Supremes’ faces darkened. “Reckless!”

One of the Supremes unleashed a mighty palm strike, aiming to suppress the endless void.

Yet in the next moment, a black ray of light slashed through time itself, cutting through space in an instant.

Puchi!

The Supreme’s body was instantly severed. Countless deathly auras erupted from the wound.

“Has the era truly changed?” A figure draped in black robes, wielding a scythe that exuded a terrifying aura, stood amidst the chaos.

With a single strike, he had slain a Supreme.

“Who are you?” The remaining four Supremes stared at the figure in shock, their hearts shaken. This was simply beyond comprehension.

That was a Supreme! Yet now, he had been cut down in one move.

For those who ruled over the Ancient Holy Realm, this was utterly unimaginable.

Buzz!

Buzz!

At this moment, the void trembled again. One after another, ancient gravestones emerged.

These gravestones exuded an ancient and sinister aura—compared to them, the Ancient Clan Supremes were like mere children before titans.

“I never expected to be the first to awaken—Death Demon God.” The Death Demon God looked at the countless gravestones around him and smirked.

“Death Demon God, we are waiting—for those ancient ones to revive.”

“This era will end by our hands. Not even they can stop us.”

In an instant, countless gravestones echoed with deep, sinister voices.

The Death Demon God swung his scythe, gazing at the remaining four Supremes before lifting his eyes to the void.

“Well then, since this Demon God has returned, why don’t you come out already?” He roared toward the heavens.

Before the four Supremes could even grasp what was happening, the void trembled violently once more, and a figure suddenly appeared.

“Heaven’s Will!” The four Supremes recognized the figure instantly, addressing him with reverence. But then, a shocking scene unfolded before their eyes.

The Ancient Holy Realm’s Will of Heaven, upon seeing the figure, trembled in fear and immediately prostrated himself at the figure’s feet.

“Death Demon God…”

The Will of Heaven shivered uncontrollably, as if he had seen something terrifying beyond imagination.

“Heaven’s Will?”

“Haha, I never thought even a wisp of turbid Qi could become the Will of Heaven.” The Death Demon God’s terrifying hand gently stroked the Will’s head, like petting a dog.

The remaining four Supremes, witnessing this scene, were utterly stunned.

They had long held supreme power, controlling the fates of countless races. Yet in this moment, everything had changed so drastically that they could barely comprehend it.

“You four insects, come here.” The Death Demon God turned his gaze to the four Supremes and beckoned.

The four Supremes exchanged glances before finally kneeling before the Death Demon God, submitting themselves.

“Hahaha!”

The Death Demon God let out a long roar, and a dense wave of death energy erupted violently, causing the entire Ancient Holy Realm to tremble.

At this moment, the Ancient Holy Realm continuously merged with other realms, expanding a thousandfold, ten thousandfold, even a hundred millionfold.

Originally vast, the Ancient Holy Realm had now grown even more immense.

The merging of ten thousand realms formed a new world. The laws of heaven and earth, the will of the cosmos, all ascended infinitely in this moment.

“This is the final battlefield—the most glorious era before the end of the cycle.”

“We have all returned. This heaven and earth still belong to us.”

At this moment, the tremendous transformation of the Ancient Holy Realm left everyone in stunned silence.

Above the camps of countless Great Thousand Races, suddenly, a crack opened in the sky. A gravestone fell from above, embedding itself into the earth.

Boom!

Boom!

One mountain gate after another emerged from the void.

To all the Great Thousand Races, none could understand what was happening.
