Immortal Supreme: Sovereign of the Grand Dao-Chapter 91 Ancient History: The Great Mortal Emperor!

================??================

The Southern Continent of the Martial Emperor Realm was divided into five major territories.

They were the southern territory, northern territory, western territory, eastern territory, and central territory.

Each territory covered an area of over 10,000 square kilometers. And the biggest of them all the central territory covers an area of 30,000 square kilometers.

The entire central territory was under the monopoly of the Hartfield Empire.

While the rest of the continent was shared between the other powerful forces such as the various sects on the continent.

Aside from the sects, there were multiple kingdoms that were under the Empire's rule.

With such influence and power, the Hartfield Empire's position on the continent was solid and can not be shaken.

Arthur had done the rough calculations and could see that just the southern continent alone is over five times bigger than the average continent back on Earth.

But aside from the Southern Continent, there are four other continents in the Martial Emperor Realm.

The Northern Continent, The Western Continent, The Eastern Continent, and The Central Continent.

But each continent is separated by the sea and no one is powerful enough to travel to any of the other continents through the sea.

Many powerful cultivators felt that this was due to an enchantment on the sea that separates the continents, which is now popularly known as the Endless Seas.

They believe this enchantment was what causes no one to get to the other parts of the world as most of those who left never came back.

And as for those that survived the ordeal, they had no idea how they ended up back on the Southern Continent.

Even then, those cultivators were gravely injured and soon suffered from Cultivation Deviation, having their cultivation realm regress, and slowly but surely they lost their strength along with their lives.

The main reason why the cultivators of the past came up with the conclusion that the Endless Sea is enchanted was due to an ancient history that only the most powerful forces knew of.

In ancient times there was only one continent!

Yes, there were not five continents like now in ancient times and the Mortal Emperor Realm had just one continent.

Those times were very chaotic as many tribes, sects, and clans waged war over one another for land and resources.

During that period, there were multiple legendary figures emerged from the chaos. And these legendary figures led their factions in the war.

There was a total of four great wars that were fought. With the first two without any winner.

Rather, the more powerful groups annexed more land and resources and forced their conquered enemies into slavery.

The wars were tagged as the 'Realm Wars'.

It was during the third Realm War that a mighty figure emerged.

Said figure was so overwhelming and powerful that he changed the tides of a battle that spanned the entire realm on his own.

The third Realm War did not just involve the inhabitants of the continent but a race of sea dwellers.

This mighty cultivator saw ahead of time that they will be under invasion and with great power he conquered the entire realm by himself.

This cultivator was the one and only man who was known as the Great Mortal Emperor.

It was said that the Mortal Emperor Realm was given its name when he conquered and united it.

Previously, the realm was known as the Great Desolate Realm.

The Mortal Emperor didn't like that name and changed it to what it was present because he believed that in the future people as powerful as him will rise and make the realm a greater place.

Being called desolate was due to how weak the inhabitants of the realm were compared to the other neighboring realms.

People called him the Immortal Emperor due to his power that was akin to that of immortals that no one in the realm had seen before. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

But he decided to go by the Great Mortal Emperor in the end.

This was because he saw his own insignificance in the grand and vast universe and he wanted to remind the continent that everyone here was just a mortal, including himself.

The reign of the Great Mortal Emperor lasted for tens of thousands of years and there was peace and great progress in the overall strength of the realm.

That was until the Great Emperor suddenly vanished.

There was no warning, and no one saw it happen but the Great Mortal Emperor was nowhere to be found.

Some came up with the conclusion that he might have ascended to a higher realm and some believed he was dead.

But even with such conclusions, no one staged a rebellion against the peace he had created.

It was just that it did not last for more than a thousand years before some greedy fellows desired the throne. eth a time which no man knoweth not when it shall come. When that which was once united but torn apart shall be returned to its previous state!"

"And he who lays in the shadows shall return!"

The prophecy foretold of a time when the continents will be fused and the great enemy that showed up during the Fourth Great Realm War will return.

A specific date was not given as to when the continent will be fused again.

But Arthur had an intuition that it might not be too far and he could possibly bear witness to it.

Arthur had this feeling since the very day that the Emperor handed over this secret history to him.

Arthur was surprised when he received the writings of this ancient history.

This was simply because according to his knowledge and the practice of this world, information like this is usually kept hidden from those who are weaker.

It was like a tradition in the world and although Arthur was surprised he was glad at the information he had received.

He only found it odd that the Emperor did not treat his daughter the same way.

It was as though he felt that it was natural to expose Arthur to such things and not treat Arthur with the usual common sense of this world as if it was the most natural thing in the world.

Arthur felt that such treatment might have had something to do with his origin but the only thing he was told was that he was handed over to the Emperor by someone unfathomably powerful.

This made Arthur aware that his origin should be way beyond this realm and his belief was consolidated when he found out about his bloodlines.

Anyway, Arthur was one to follow his instincts which have always been right since his reincarnation.

He attributes this as an ability he had due to the Fate Gem.

Concerning matters like this, the Fate Gem was the most real guide he has and can trust.

Arthur only hopes he will be strong enough by the time when the great unification will arrive.

In his knowledge, nothing is ever peaceful in a cultivation world. And there are many variables that can affect his existence and cut his life short.

He had once reached the peak of the Universe and even though he lost almost all his memories with no way of recovering them, he knew of existences that if they descended into this realm, their mere presence will destroy all life here.

But rather than have an existential crisis, he was more excited about the prospect of achieving such a level of strength and even going beyond it.

As Arthur meditated on these things, the group of the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Alchemy Association, and the Fire Spirit Sect reached their destination.

*Swoosh!*

Arthur opened his eyes from his meditative state and found that their mount had slowed down a lot. 𝙛r𝚎𝐞𝑤𝚎𝗯𝗻𝗼𝐯e𝚕.𝒄𝐨𝓂

He looked below and saw a lot of greenery.

He knew where they were.

'No wonder they sent Great Elders to escort us. This place is beyond any Gold Core Realm cultivator.'

'And apparently, the Vice Sect Leaders are stealthily behind us.'

'It is required for such a location like this. The only mountainous region that all men are to avoid or tread carefully unless you are as strong as a Martial King Realm expert or above, you better stay at home....'

Arthur knew a lot of things and this place was one of them.

After all, even just its name tells of its history.

' The Ancient Battlefield.'
