Chapter 2768

Yan Aohan glanced at the Black Emperor. "We are all trapped in this Demon Abyss. We do not know how long it will take to complete the task of the War of Gods. Therefore, we cannot do what we wish to do right now."

It was not that they lacked patience. The storm had come too fast. If they remained in this Demon Abyss, no one knew what the outcome would be.

Yan Aohan took a deep breath. "If there is truly no other way, we will take that final step. If something goes wrong, my wife will arrive eventually. She can purify everything."

The Black Emperor naturally knew Zhu Yanyi’s abilities. She nodded slightly upon hearing Yan Aohan’s words. "That is the last resort."

"I wonder how the Ancient Universe is faring?" the Immortal Emperor asked with concern.

Yan Aohan took out a map and looked at it. "Let us meet with the other gods first."

"Hmm?" The Empress looked at the map, seeming surprised.

"What is it?" The Black Emperor noticed his wife had discovered something and asked hurriedly.

The Empress glanced at the Black Emperor, then spoke slowly. "I found that the map here has changed."

"The map changed?" The Black Emperor was slightly stunned. He then observed the map carefully. He realized the Empress was entirely correct. The map had indeed changed.

However, the change was not significant. Unless one observed as carefully as the Empress, no one would have noticed.

"The map actually changed. What does that imply?" the Fire Empress asked curiously.

"It implies someone is manipulating things from the shadows," the Black Emperor said, his eyes thoughtful.

This place was not simple. Even though they, as Sovereign Emperors, could change unpredictably and control the weather, this was a place with its own spirit. The fact that the map had issues clearly indicated the local spirit was interfering.

The Black Emperor smiled lightly. "It seems the spirit here can no longer bear to watch."

What they could not bear to watch was clear to everyone.

Although they worried about the Ancient Universe, before encountering those gods, all they could do was wait patiently.

As time passed, the gods gradually gathered. The Black Emperor’s group first met with the Xuanhuang Universe.

The Xuan Emperor and his wife, along with their gods, saw the gods from the Supreme Universe and sighed in relief. "These days are finally coming to an end."

"How long did previous Wars of Gods last?" the Immortal Emperor asked curiously.

The Xuan Emperor replied, "The time varied before, but usually around a hundred years. This time has exceeded a hundred years. I do not know what happened in between."

A hundred years meant little to them. However, if there were unexpected conspiracies involved, this War of Gods became unsettling.

Actually, the Xuanhuang Universe was relatively lucky. At least, information about the Evil Emperor had not leaked much to them.

As the old saying goes, ignorance is bliss. Because they did not know, they did not need to worry about what the Evil Emperor was doing.

The Black Emperor said, "Meeting you all safely is already a surprise."

Who could have imagined that as representatives of the Supreme Universe, participating in this War of Gods for the first time, they would encounter the Evil Emperor?

The Xuan Emperor asked with concern, "Our information is not very clear. How is the Evil Emperor doing now?"

"I do not know," the Black Emperor said. He naturally would not reveal what he had found in Yandao. "All we can do now is pray for the gods of the Ancient Universe. We do not know what the Evil Emperor has done. We only hope they are safe."

"It seems we can only wait. Once we meet the gods of the Ancient Universe, we will know what happened," the Xuan Emperor sighed.

Perhaps because the gathering of gods had begun, over the next few days, everyone started to converge. After meeting the Xuanhuang Universe, the Black Emperor subsequently joined forces with the Initial, Light, Origin, and Primordial universes. Only the Ancient Universe remained missing.

As time passed, the mood of the gods from the six universes grew heavy.

"If we do not meet them within another year, the gods of the Ancient Universe plane have likely encountered disaster," the Immortal Emperor stated.

The Hua Emperor added, "What does the Evil Emperor intend to do? Does he plan to destroy the entire Ancient Universe?"

"Based on my understanding after teaming up with him, his ambition is likely greater than that," Yan Aohan said calmly.

The Hua Emperor frowned slightly. "What I worry about now is the Ancient Universe plane. If the Evil Emperor takes control, the future direction of the entire Ancient Universe is unpredictable."

All universes operated according to their own systems. Generally, each universe evolved slowly based on its characteristics. However, this required the Sovereign Emperor above to be fair. If the Evil Emperor took over, the other gods could not imagine the consequences.

The Hua Emperor looked at the gods. "Let us assume what might happen next."

"Assume?" The Xuan Emperor sighed. "I know nothing about the Evil Emperor. How can I make assumptions?"

"There is no need to assume. The gods of the Ancient Universe are already in trouble," Yan Aohan said, closing his eyes briefly before speaking.

"How do you know?" The Hua Emperor looked at Yan Aohan.

Yan Aohan said calmly, "I control the art of reincarnation. If gods wish to reincarnate without sufficient reincarnation skills, they cannot return. Therefore, they were smart. They sacrificed a soul and a spirit fragment, risking their lives to come to my domain. I have now sent them to a specific place to nurture their souls. Once their incomplete souls are restored, I will use the art of reincarnation to send them to reincarnate anew."

Yan Aohan’s words were calm, but the news struck the gods like a bolt from the blue.

"What about the Evil Emperor? Where did he go?" the Hua Emperor asked in a deep voice.

Yan Aohan shook his head slightly. "I do not know. Their souls were injured and fell into a deep sleep. There is no way to obtain detailed information."

"There is no need to search. This Emperor has arrived."

At that moment, the Evil Emperor appeared, dressed in red. He seemed arrogant, yet it felt as if he belonged there naturally.

"Gods of the six universes, hello. Let me introduce myself. I am the Evil Emperor, Wuxie. I assume you all already know of me."

The Evil Emperor Wuxie’s eyes were red. However, this redness did not carry hostility. Instead, it held an unbearable pressure.

The Black Emperor waved his hand. A wave of black energy erupted, directly blocking this pressure.

"The Black Emperor is truly a Sovereign Emperor with demonic cultivation. Your cultivation is solid," the Evil Emperor said, looking at the Black Emperor with a calm expression.

The Black Emperor looked at the Evil Emperor. "Evil Emperor, tell us. You came to the Demon Abyss to participate in the War of Gods. You must have had a plan from the beginning, correct?"
