"No matter how powerful the Great Emperor was, his strength fell short of his will, but the war was not without results, numerous Star Lords were killed, and coupled with the corruption of the Evil God’s malicious thoughts, the Heavenly Court’s actual strength had dropped significantly."
The little boy’s words revealed a great deal about the Heavenly Court, Adam now understood why the Book Saint had been in such a hurry for him to come here, with this little boy present, they could learn so many secrets, this information would be crucial in future battles.
"So, what happened to the Great Emperor in the end?" Adam frowned, fighting the entire Heavenly Court alone, what a monumentally difficult task.
"The Great Emperor later..." The little boy’s voice suddenly grew solemn, his eyes flickering with reverence and sorrow.
"In the battle against the Heavenly Court, although he was valiantly invincible, he was ultimately alone, he couldn’t fend off their vast armies."
"In that battle, the world changed color and the sun and moon lost their light, relying on sheer willpower and tactical brilliance, the Great Emperor engaged in a battle of wits and strength with the Heavenly Court, but suffered heavy injuries due to the vast disparity in power."
"However, the Great Emperor did not yield, putting everything on the line, he condensed his power and will into a divine sword, piercing straight into the heart of the Heavenly Court, in that moment, the entire world trembled, and many Star Lords fell, his heroism and resolve shocked everyone."
"But the Great Emperor also paid a massive price, his body was shattered, his soul damaged, and he ultimately dissipated between heaven and earth."
The little boy’s voice carried endless regret and grief, not only had he witnessed those breathtaking battles scene by scene, he was also a participant, no one knew the tragic intensity of that battle better than he did.
Adam and Cecilia were deeply moved, feeling as though they stood on that very battlefield, experiencing the Great Emperor’s heroism and tragic grandeur.
"Did the Great Emperor... truly fall just like that?" Cecilia’s voice trembled slightly, unable to accept such an end.
"Yes, the Great Emperor ultimately fell." The little boy nodded, a firm light in his eyes.
"But I will never forget his spirit and will, besides, the Great Emperor left behind a spark."
"He knew that humanity would one day discover the truth about the Heavenly Court, so he left me behind."
"To assist future generations in their rebellion."
Adam took a deep breath, his heart filled with respect, he understood that although the Great Emperor had fallen, his spirit would forever inspire future generations.
"What about the Heavenly Court? What happened after he fell?" Cecilia pressed.
"After the Great Emperor fell, although the Heavenly Court won, their vitality was severely sapped, the Evil God was getting restless, with the Great Emperor gone, they lost their biggest threat and went back to researching their bizarre immortality techniques."
"As for the formations set up by the Great Emperor, they couldn’t break through them, which is why I’ve remained safe until now."
Alaric gave a bitter smile, but his eyes were full of resolve, though the Great Emperor had fallen, his spark continued to burn.
Adam took a deep breath, the final destination of every generation’s Great Emperor was always a mystery, no one knew what would ultimately cause the downfall of an entity supposedly invincible in the world, but now he knew the past of one Great Emperor, to think it was so tragic and heroic, fighting for the Human race, only to fall.
"Did the same happen to the other Great Emperors?" Adam realized the others should have also discovered the Evil Seed.
"I don’t know, the epochs separating each Great Emperor were simply too long." The little boy shook his head.
Afterward, Adam learned even more through the little boy, they also exited the inner secret realm, however, outside it, there was still another spatial dimension.
"How do we leave this space?" Adam asked.
"Um... can I say I don’t know?" The little boy scratched his head.
"How could you not know? You stayed here for so long!" Adam looked astonished.
"What’s so strange about that? I’m just an Imperial Artifact, normally, I stayed in the Great Emperor’s storage bag."
"It’s not like the Great Emperor was like Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King, who likes holding his artifact in his hand all the time, that gets tiring, you know!" The little boy grumbled.
"So when we came in, I had no idea how the Great Emperor got in."
"And when he left, I was placed inside that inner secret realm, isn’t it perfectly normal that I don’t know?"
"Besides, I’m just a weapon, you want me to do all these things? How is that possible?"
The little boy muttered incessantly, implying that since he was just a pagoda, they should not expect too much.
Adam and Cecilia were speechless.
"Young Master, let’s just contact the Book Saint." Cecilia finally understood why the little boy had disguised his voice earlier, this was indeed completely unconvincing.
Adam nodded and took out the jade slip the Book Saint had given him, soon it burst with golden light, and a strange power enveloped the three of them, the jade slip spun, transforming into a vortex.
Adam’s eyes lit up, as expected, the Book Saint was more reliable, he had anticipated every possible situation.
"Let’s go, we’re taking you to avenge the Great Emperor." Adam’s mouth curled into a smile as he took a firm step forward.
Cecilia and the little boy followed closely behind, their eyes filled with unwavering resolve.
But just as the three were about to step into the vortex, the world suddenly darkened and a fierce gale began to howl.
A terrifying, gigantic mouth appeared in the sky.
The pupils of all three violently contracted.
"The Evil God!" The little boy exclaimed, his expression changing drastically.
The owner of that massive mouth was none other than the Evil God they had been constantly talking about.
Adam and Cecilia immediately felt an intense, crushing pressure, as if heaven and earth were under the Evil God’s absolute control, the hairs on their bodies stood on end, it was the primal, instinctive fear of living creatures.
They knew that if the Evil God entangled them now, leaving would be incredibly difficult.
"Young Master, let’s get into the vortex, quick!" Cecilia urged anxiously.
Adam nodded, they were no match for the Evil God right now, they had to leave immediately.
