Chapter 1482: Chapter 1465: Traces Within the Passage of Time

Boom!

Even though Xiao Ye’s palm strike seemed simple, without employing any combat techniques, it was equally terrifying and overwhelming, capable of overpowering an ordinary Emperor Martial Realm expert several times over.

This is an absolute kill!

"Am I... am I going to die?" Chou Duantian’s face was filled with fear, shrouded in the shadow of death. Xiao Ye’s absolute kill approached, rendering his body immobile from the pressure.

His lofty ambition of sweeping across the world and advancing to the Godless Realm shattered under Xiao Ye’s palm strike.

If he had the choice, he would undoubtedly unleash all his power to kill Xiao Ye.

But now, it was too late to say anything.

"Hmm?"

"Not good!"

At that moment, suddenly Xiao Ye’s body trembled, and the space ring on his finger started to move abnormally. A delicate jade talisman appeared out of thin air.

Crack, crack, crack!

Amidst a dense cracking sound that resonated, the jade talisman disintegrated into powder.

Where the powder dispersed, mysterious array runes emerged, enveloping Xiao Ye entirely, making him disappear from where he stood.

"This..."

Chou Duantian felt a weight lifted as if relieved, but his eyes widened in disbelief.

Just a moment ago, Xiao Ye was about to kill him, but he suddenly disappeared without a trace?

"Hurry and flee!"

"Find a quiet place to cultivate from now on."

However, without sparing much thought, he pushed his speed to the limit, turning his figure into a stream of light and vanishing into the Soul Loss Mountain Range.

"Xiao Ye!"

Tie Xue, who had just killed the Ultimate Palace martial artist blocking his way, noticed this scene and cried out in sorrow. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Xiao Ye’s sudden disappearance made him realize that Xiao Ye had probably left...

Even though he had already known Xiao Ye would soon leave, now that it was truly happening, he couldn’t help but feel sad.

With Xiao Ye gone, in this life, who else was worthy of being his opponent? Who else was qualified to discuss martial arts with him?

Is it true that the price of invincibility is destined to be solitude?

"Ah!!"

Tie Xue raised his head and roared, causing the starry skies above to tremble violently. Beams of starlight descended, spreading powerful qi that made the entire Soul Loss Mountain Range crumble, turning mountains one after another into dust.

As for the remaining martial artists in the Soul Loss Mountain Range, their bodies burst open one by one.

"Xiao Ye, thank you. I intend to become an emperor. I will keep my true self and obstruct the rise of the Ultimate Palace in this life."

"We... shall meet again in future generations."

Finding release, Tie Xue murmured to himself, then erected a tomb for Xiao Ye in the Soul Loss Mountain Range.

This was his agreement with Xiao Ye.

Xiao Ye’s origin from the future was a secret known only to the two of them.

To prevent Xiao Ye’s departure from seeming too inexplicable, Tie Xue erected a tomb, also serving as a tribute to Xiao Ye’s journey to the Ancient Era.

This scene left the martial artists who came upon hearing the news utterly shocked.

Xiao Ye, a super genius who could stand shoulder to shoulder with Tie Xue, had fallen?

The news quickly spread, shaking the Four Great States.

"Brother Xiao Ye!"

Guo An’an, having returned to the Western State’s Pure Yang Alliance headquarters, went pale and wept as she heard the news.

She knew Xiao Ye was too outstanding, and she had no chance to stay by his side, but she felt content just watching his rise to become a Supreme Emperor.

But she had parted ways with Xiao Ye forever?

"I will return to the East State and go to the Soul Loss Mountain Range to pay respects to Brother Xiao Ye. None of you stop me." Guo An’an made a decision.

"Heaven is jealous of talents. It seems only one genius is destined to walk the Emperor Road in this life."

Shen Tu sighed, accompanying Guo An’an.

Some sighed, some lamented, while others found schadenfreude unavoidable.

For instance, Xu Teng from the Xu Family and the Green Dragon Four Brothers laughed aloud upon hearing the news, greedily discussing Xiao Ye, saying he didn’t know his limits for daring to stand with Tie Xue, trying to sweep away an outpost of the Ultimate Palace.

Xiao Ye’s overwhelming power had left them despairing, but they could only set aside their envy.

Yet now, fate had opened its eyes and taken Xiao Ye’s life, leaving them excited beyond measure.

However, their happiness didn’t last long.

Tie Xue, drawn by their words, came and unceremoniously injured them, leaving behind one remark: "If Xiao Ye were still here, I would have no choice but to yield the Emperor Road of this era to him."

This statement caused shock all around once again.

Even Tie Xue, in a roundabout way, admitted he couldn’t compare to Xiao Ye?

But it all mattered not to Xiao Ye now.

Later generations, True Spirit Continent, Central State.

Spring turned to autumn, and almost two years had passed since Xiao Ye’s departure.

War between the Wuji Sect and the Iron Blood Emperor Domain, which affected various forces in Central State, had reached a heated standoff.

The agreement spanning two years between the half-step Emperor who assisted the Wuji Sect’s Zhi Ge and the Iron Blood Domain Master was coming to an end.

Martial artists in Central State all felt an earth-shattering war was on the brink of outbreak.

Yet, the Sect Leader of the Wuji Sect, Xiao Ye, seemed to have vanished, with no one knowing his whereabouts.

Meanwhile, in the Eastern State among the Four Great States, a significant event occurred.

An Emperor Martial Realm expert accidentally entered an ancient relic, discovering a section of ancient secrets.

"During the Ancient Era, the Iron Blood Emperor emerged but encountered a rival on par with him. They appreciated each other, addressing each other as brothers, and sparred to validate martial arts."

"Regrettably, heaven was jealous of talents. This genius comparable to Tie Xue fell mid-way, stepping off the Ancient Era stage."

"When the Iron Blood Emperor commemorated this rival, he commented that if this opponent hadn’t fallen, the Human Clan’s second Great Emperor would not be him, and even he would have had to make way."

This is an ancient secret that stirred the world!

During the Ancient Era, a rival emerged whom even the Iron Blood Emperor would have had to defer to?

And most astonishingly, this rival’s name was Xiao Ye.

The same name as today’s True Spirit Continent’s foremost heavenly pride, the Wuji Sect’s Sect Leader!

It stirred reflection, that both heavenly prides named Xiao Ye were so brilliant!

As the ancient secret spread, an astounding discovery emerged from the Iron Blood Emperor Domain.

A half Emperor from the Iron Blood Emperor Domain, while traveling the world with great divine skills, found the domain’s ancestral grounds, where the Iron Blood Emperor once cultivated with his people.

Even the Iron Blood Domain Master was alerted, personally visiting the ancestral grounds for commemoration.

Millennia of change had left the ancestral grounds unrecognizable, but within, they found a statue.

Despite the rot from the passage of time, a special energy within the ancestral grounds preserved it, allowing a glimpse of the statue’s features, which uncannily resembled Xiao Ye!
