Beside the Mirror of Ancient Immortals, many elders from various powerful factions were astonished, their eyes filled with shock.
Those with keen insight understood what had transpired.
That is, Long Aotian and Wang Teng had fallen.
These two individuals, one was the Young Emperor of the Wang family, and the other was the first generation of the Ancestral Dragon Nest.
In the vast Immortal Domain of the Wilderness, they were renowned figures, but now, they had both perished.
"The great battle of the ages, the heroes shedding blood, could this ancient immortality be the starting point of the struggle for supremacy?" many elders from major factions lamented.
"You all..." Wang Yuanba's gaze couldn't help but turn towards the Jun family.
With Wang Teng's fall, the first possibility that came to his mind was that he had been killed by Jun Xiaoyao.
"What are you looking at?" Jun Zhantian huffed, glaring fiercely, showing no fear.
Although the Wang family of the Northern Lands was also an ancient family, the Jun family, as one of the three great families of the ancient era, was not intimidated in the slightest.
"Head of the family, please calm down; Wang Teng may not necessarily have been killed by that Jun Xiaoyao..." some elders of the Wang family hurriedly advised.
Though they were also hostile towards the Jun family, it was clearly not the right time to confront them publicly.
Even if a conflict arose, the Wang family would gain no advantage.
On the side of the Ancestral Dragon Nest, the elders of Long Aotian's lineage had bloodshot eyes.
Although it was possible that Long Aotian had fallen due to the Bronze Immortal Palace, they still felt it was inextricably linked to Jun Xiaoyao.
In any case, the fall of these two prodigies had stirred up a huge uproar, and many factions present were discussing it.
"Could it really be that the Jun family's divine son did the killing?"
"That's not certain; it could also be the killing intent within the Bronze Immortal Palace."
"Indeed, even the Supreme Lord must shed blood within the Bronze Immortal Palace, let alone the younger generation of prodigies."
"Then do you think the Jun family's divine son might follow in their footsteps?"
"That is possible. Although the Jun family's divine son possesses an invincible aura, it is limited to the younger generation; in the face of the strange phenomena of the Bronze Immortal Palace, it may not be enough."
Many people were discussing.
After the fall of Long Aotian and Wang Teng, they believed that Jun Xiaoyao's situation was likely not good either.
At this moment, within the Bronze Immortal Palace.
Jun Xiaoyao had anticipated that the outside world would be stirred up because of this.
But he didn't care at all; these two were dead, so be it.
The Wang family of the Northern Lands and the Ancestral Dragon Nest did not have the guts to openly deal with him.
Next, Jun Xiaoyao began to collect the spoils.
After all, they were ripe for the picking.
Jun Xiaoyao first picked up the Evil Dragon Ring and examined it.
It seemed to contain some inheritance resources of the Evil Dragon Emperor.
The Evil Dragon Emperor was a supreme powerhouse from a fallen dragon lineage of another realm, likely drawn in by the legends of the Bronze Immortal Palace.
In the end, he fell, leaving behind a trace of remnant thoughts attached to the Evil Dragon Ring, which was ultimately obtained by Long Aotian.
Jun Xiaoyao had no interest in the Evil Dragon Emperor's inheritance but still stored it in his spatial artifact.
What intrigued Jun Xiaoyao most about Long Aotian was the Nine Great Heavenly Books.
After a search, he obtained a dark golden scroll.
"As expected, it is one of the Nine Great Heavenly Books, the Book of Void, but why is there only half?" Jun Xiaoyao pondered for a moment, shaking his head slightly.
He wasn't too disappointed; after all, half a scroll of the Book of Void was still a significant gain.
What Jun Xiaoyao was thinking was whether he could recreate a path to immortality if he could gather all nine Heavenly Books.
"Throughout history, there have been almost no one who has gathered all nine Heavenly Books. What would happen if they were united?" Jun Xiaoyao was somewhat curious.
He didn't have a collecting obsession, but clearly, the more Heavenly Books, the better.
Now, within the Bronze Immortal Palace, it was not the time for comprehension, so Jun Xiaoyao put away the half scroll of the Book of Void.
Afterward, Jun Xiaoyao activated the Heavenly Furnace again, extracting the Imperial Dragon Blood from Long Aotian's body.
It could be said that this time, Jun Xiaoyao had dug out even the roots of the leeks, leaving no waste.
Long Aotian's value had been nearly drained.
As for the inheritance of the Ancient Void Dragon, Jun Xiaoyao had no interest whatsoever.
Then, Jun Xiaoyao began to rummage through Wang Teng's treasures.
Wang Teng had been blessed with abundant fortune since childhood, acquiring countless opportunities and treasures.
However, Jun Xiaoyao found nothing appealing; after all, he had also enjoyed the highest treatment since childhood and had used various treasures.
The only thing that caught Jun Xiaoyao's attention on Wang Teng was the broken imperial weapon ancient talisman.
"Could this be an imperial weapon of some ancient emperor?" Jun Xiaoyao picked up the broken ancient talisman and examined it.
This ancient talisman was only half, exuding an ancient aura, with a character "tongue" inscribed in the center.
"No, this should only be half of a character. Could it be... chaos?" Jun Xiaoyao pondered.
Which ancient emperor took chaos as their title?
Jun Xiaoyao thought for a moment but had no further thoughts.
He played with it a bit, gaining some understanding of the mysteries of the broken ancient talisman.
"Just now, it was this broken ancient talisman that protected Wang Teng's shattered primordial spirit; it's quite a good protective imperial weapon."
"If I could obtain the complete ancient talisman, perhaps even a primordial spirit shattered into dust could be restored," Jun Xiaoyao thought.
A complete ancient talisman would be equivalent to an extra life, making it a priceless treasure.
Jun Xiaoyao stored the ancient talisman, tidied up a bit, then waved his hand, summoning the Ancient Emperor Yan to incinerate the corpses of Wang Teng and Long Aotian into ashes.
As for the ancient artifacts they had summoned, without their blood and qi sensing, Jun Xiaoyao could not control them, so he simply gave up.
"With these two ants dealt with, I can now explore in peace," Jun Xiaoyao set off again.
Within the palace, everywhere he passed was still littered with corpses.
Jun Xiaoyao once again heard the tinkling laughter of a little girl.
Following the sound, he delved deeper, and finally, deep within the Bronze Immortal Palace, he encountered another bronze door.
This bronze door was tightly sealed and incredibly ancient.
Even when Jun Xiaoyao activated ancient artifacts, he could not break it open.
Then, Jun Xiaoyao noticed a circular groove in the center of this bronze door.
"Is it... a bronze compass?"
A glimmer of light appeared in Jun Xiaoyao's eyes.
He took out the bronze compass and pressed it directly into the groove.
In an instant, the long-sealed ancient bronze door slowly opened.
Dust billowed out.
Jun Xiaoyao looked ahead, where a vast hall filled with dust lay before him, incredibly spacious.
Opposite him were tiered bronze steps, and atop the steps was a bronze platform.
On it rested a wooden table.
A dusty ghostly mask lay quietly on the wooden table.
On the wall beside the table hung a yellowed scroll.
On the scroll was a blurry figure, the face of the man in the painting was handsome and warm like the sun, resembling Jun Xiaoyao closely.
"That is..." Jun Xiaoyao's gaze slightly trembled.
Could it be that the Bronze Immortal Palace is also related to that ghostly-faced woman?
At that moment, a rumbling sound echoed from above the entire hall.
There, a massive, heavy gas, dense as a mountain and like a cloud layer, pressed down, each wisp of breath exuding a mysterious yellow color, capable of collapsing mountains.
"This is... the primal energy of all things?" Jun Xiaoyao exclaimed in astonishment.
