Just as Peter Parker had anticipated, his advancement to the Mixed Energy Realm meant the barrier to the sixth floor was no longer a significant obstacle. Upon successfully reaching the sixth level, he was greeted by a blinding light that nearly prevented him from opening his eyes. A familiar aura enveloped the sixth level of the Tower of Time, one that Peter Parker recognized instantly.
He could feel these auras pulsating strongly around him.
"This is... the aura of the Heavenly Emperor's origin. How can the Heavenly Emperor's origin be present in the Tower of Time?" Peter Parker wondered, astonished, as he forced his eyes open.
Before him, dozens of luminous spheres materialized.
Heavenly Emperor's Origin!
The sixth floor was awash with the Heavenly Emperor's Origin. Peter's gaze swept the area, counting a total of 33 Heavenly Emperor origins floating there.
This meant that, aside from the two Heavenly Emperor origin essences he had already absorbed, the 36 Immortal Emperor origin essences left by the Heavenly Emperor were nearly complete. Only the final Celestial Thearch Origins were missing, with the remaining 33 Celestial Thearch Origins unaccounted for until now. They had all been collected here by the Tower of Time's owner.
Remembering what the Chaos Origin Immortal Sovereign from the Heavenly Thunder Hall had mentioned during his previous visit, Peter Parker quickly pieced it together. It was likely that the one who had wrested the Heavenly Emperor's origin from the devil devils was the Tower of Time's former master.
But then again...
The Time Tower's owner must have been an Immortal Emperor Realm expert at the very least. The Heavenly Monarch's origin should have held little value for someone of that caliber. Why, then, would he amass the Heavenly Monarch's origin within the Time Tower?
Shrugging off the thought, Peter Parker decided not to dwell on it.
Regardless of the reason, the former master of the Tower of Time had clearly assembled the Heavenly Emperor's origin on the sixth floor. And for Peter Parker, that was nothing short of fantastic news.
With the origin of the 33 Heavenly Emperors located on the sixth floor of the Tower of Time, there was no longer a need for an exhaustive search. By absorbing the essence of all 33 Celestial Thearchs, Peter Parker would be on the cusp of becoming an Immortal Emperor, even if he didn't quite reach that lofty title.
"I wonder if I can transport these Heavenly Monarch Origins to the second floor of the Tower of Time," Peter Parker mused as he gazed at the Heavenly Emperor's Origin. Despite the advanced capabilities of his system, the process of absorbing the essence of Heavenly Emperors was incredibly time-consuming. It had already taken him over a decade to assimilate the essence from the rulers of Tian Xuan Palace and Tian Gang Palace.
At this pace, it would likely take several centuries to fully integrate the essence of all 33 Heavenly Emperors. However, if he could move the Heavenly Emperor Origins to the second level of the Tower of Time, he would be able to complete the task in just a few years.
With this in mind, Peter Parker wasted no time attempting to transfer the Heavenly Emperor's Origin to the second level. Having already absorbed the essence of two Heavenly Emperors, he felt a profound connection to their essence, negating the need for the Heavenly Emperor Seal to approach it.
He grasped one of the essences and, in an instant, found himself on the second floor of the Tower of Time. "It worked!" he exclaimed, pleasantly surprised to see the Heavenly Emperor Origins had accompanied him. The accelerated time on this floor would significantly ease the absorption process.
Without hesitation, Peter Parker settled into a deep meditative state and commenced the absorption of the Heavenly Emperor's Origin. As he cultivated, ten years swiftly elapsed on the second level of the Tower of Time. He had successfully integrated the first Heavenly Emperor's essence.
Despite his breakthrough to the Chaos Yuan State, Peter Parker found that his cultivation pace had slowed considerably, even with the aid of the Heavenly Emperor's essence. The absorption of a single Heavenly Emperor's Origin had only advanced him from the early to the middle stage of the Chaos Origin Stage.
However, this rate of cultivation was still astoundingly fast compared to typical Chaos Origin Stage cultivators. After all, even the brightest prodigies in the Immortal World would struggle to advance despite pouring vast resources into their training and toiling for centuries. Peter Parker, however, had leveraged the system and the Tower of Time to assimilate the essence of the Heavenly Emperor. Remarkably, it took him just ten years to progress through a minor realm, which was quite an overstatement of his abilities.
Not to mention, those ten years within the Tower of Time equated to merely a month in the external world.
Peter Parker proceeded in the same vein, converting the essence of the Heavenly Emperor from the sixth to the fourth level within the Tower of Time, thereby bolstering his strength further. Upon assimilating the essence of the fifth Heavenly Emperor, Peter's cultivation base soared to the pinnacle of the Chaos Origin Stage, bringing him on the cusp of the Immortal King Realm.
Undeterred, Peter continued to draw on the Heavenly Emperor's Essence, intent on grasping the power of the King Dao and achieving a breakthrough to the Immortal King Realm in one fell swoop.
Meanwhile, as Peter Parker was immersed in his breakthrough efforts, the outside world was undergoing significant shifts. Following their efforts to quell the devils across the Purple Flame Heaven Domain, the Purple Flame Emperor Palace convened in the Devil Suppression Immortal City to devise a strategy to eliminate the threat of the Heavenly Devil Mountain and thwart the resurgence of the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace in the Immortal World.
However, despite rallying the forces of the Purple Flame Heaven Territory, they failed to launch an offensive against the Heavenly Devil Mountain. The fierce clashes only fueled the mountain's blood sacrifice ritual, summoning more formidable beings from the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace.
Ultimately, the coalition led by the Purple Flame Emperor Palace suffered another defeat at the hands of the devils from the Heavenly Demon Mountain.
In the grand hall of the Demon Suppression Palace, over ten figures convened. Dominating the gathering was a commanding middle-aged man clad in purple robes—the current master of the Purple Flame Emperor Palace, known as the Purple Dome Immortal King. Arrayed before the Violet Heaven Immortal King were more than a dozen experts of the Immortal King Realm, including the Devil Suppression Immortal King.
The young man in question was none other than the current master of the Violet Flame Emperor Palace, known as the Violet Firmament Immortal King.
In preparation for the confrontation with Heavenly Demon Mountain, the Purple Flame Emperor Palace had rallied over 90% of the Purple Flame Heaven Territory's might.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the devils of Heavenly Devil Mountain have approached with a threatening presence. The Ancient Devil Palace is showing signs of reemerging in the Immortal World. With the Immortal World now facing peril, do any of you have strategies to counter this threat?"
Zi Qiong's eyes swept over the assembly of Immortal Kings, his voice grave as it echoed through the hall.
A hush fell over the Immortal Kings at his words.
The Desolate Ancient Devil Palace had been the origin of a catastrophic ancient calamity within the Immortal Dimension.
In the past, despite the Ancient Immortal World being under the vigilant watch of numerous Immortal Emperors, they had still suffered tremendous losses to keep the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace at bay.
With the ominous resurgence of the Desolate Ancient Devil Palace, and no Immortal Emperor to protect the Immortal World, the question loomed: How could they possibly stand against such a force?
