1037 Discussing the candidates for the Imperial Way
The ruthless emperor stepped out of the wilderness of the universe and came to the Beidou Star Territory.
Everyone followed.
Cao Ya looked around and saw that the ancient star was no longer there. There were only countless fragments scattered in all directions, floating in the dark outside the territory. Occasionally, a ray of divine light burst out to illuminate the starry sky.
"Woof!" At this time, the Black Emperor noticed the crowd and flew over.
The ruthless emperor glanced at him and his cold eyes made the Black Emperor tremble as if cold water had been poured over his head.
"boom!!!"
Suddenly, the ruthless emperor gave a clear scolding, and the fairy sound echoed, and she could see her making seals with both hands. Without the use of divine magic, her divine power swept across the sky and gathered all the fragments together.
At this moment, the heroic appearance of the ruthless emperor was visible to all regions, and countless monks worshiped him.
The reappearance of the Big Dipper Star, although there are some differences compared to the original, can be generally speaking, it is still restored. Donghuang, Zhongzhou, West Desert, Beiyuan, and Nanling are all reappeared.
"Boom!!"
Then, the ruthless emperor waved his hand again, with vast power, the ancient forbidden land fell from the depths of the starry sky and fell into the Eastern Wasteland, stirring up dust all over the sky.
The ruthless emperor's eyes began to darken, and she escaped into the ancient forbidden land, bringing with her a dozen slaves of the wilderness, and became the "Lord of the Wasteland" again.
"Buzzing..."
At this time, the infinite law surged and enveloped the ruthless emperor.
Cao Ya saw that the ruthless emperor was finally wrapped in a fairy cocoon, surrounded by laws, and began another transformation.
This time the immortal road opened, although he did not find reincarnation, the ruthless emperor walked the immortal road alone and gained a lot from the distant view of the immortal realm. On the mortal road, he gained new insights and will go further and become more and more prosperous. Close to the real wonderland!
"Perhaps the next time the ruthless emperor wakes up, he will be the mortal immortal, right?" Cao Ya thought to himself, but couldn't figure out when exactly the ruthless emperor truly broke into the fairyland and obtained the status of the mortal immortal!
According to the comparison of the ancient era, that is the pinnacle of true immortals and the quasi-immortal king!
The Emperor and the Emperor are at the pinnacle of humanity.
In other words, we not only have to cross the greatest threshold between immortality and humanity, but we also have to go deeper and reach the limit of true immortality before we can become immortals in the world of mortals.
It has to be said that this requirement is thousands of times more difficult than becoming an immortal in ancient times!
"call out!"
Suddenly, a stream of light flew out from the depths of the ancient forbidden land, fell in front of everyone, and transformed into a pink and jade-like little girl. Her little face was confused, as if she hadn't figured out the situation yet, and she was very cute.
"Ah, big brother." When the little girl saw Ye Fan, she shouted in surprise and ran over. The void seemed to be flat.
Ye Fan couldn't help but smile. No matter what the relationship between the little girl and the ruthless emperor was, in short, this little girl was the sister he recognized in the past and cherished him very much.
The Black Emperor barked "woof".
"Big dog." The little girl smiled. She is a three or four-year-old girl, but she is very sensible. It makes people feel both love and pity.
"This method is so miraculous. No wonder it can reach such a far distance on the imperial path." Dacheng Holy Body sighed with emotion.
He has not yet attained enlightenment and become an emperor!
It’s just that the Holy Body is completed, and it is a different kind of enlightenment.
Like him, there is Gai Jiuyou.
"On the road to immortality, few people have gone further than her." Gai Jiuyou sighed.
"Although emperors and emperors in ancient times have been invincible for a lifetime, in fact, the only ones who have truly transcended and touched the 'immortal' realm are those who are so powerful throughout the ages." Cao Ya said.
The Dacheng Holy Body nodded, carried the remains of the Holy Body in Shengya, entered the ancient forbidden land, and buried it.
The ruthless emperor, who turned into a fairy cocoon and slept under the abyss deep in the forbidden land, did not make any move and seemed to acquiesce to this matter.
"Everyone, I'll see you again someday!" Dacheng Holy Body waved his hand, said goodbye to everyone, and fell asleep.
And a group of people brought the remains of another Dacheng Holy Body to the old place of Yaochi and buried it with the Queen Mother of the West.
Seeing the corpse of the Queen Mother shrouded in chaos and mist, it was still extremely majestic. Even the Great Sage and the Quasi-Emperor could not get close to it. Suddenly, everyone was amazed that the ancient emperor had crushed the heavens of all ages!
"Emperor, don't blame me." The Black Emperor whispered. The Queen Mother of the West and the Great Saint are the parents of Emperor Wushi. In the past, they followed Emperor Wushi and worshiped here, so they had a deep understanding. Only now can I bring Ye Fan and the little girl into this place, allowing Ye Fan to fuse the remains of the Dacheng Holy Body.
Now that I think about it, although the situation forced me to do so, there is no doubt that this is still a blasphemy against the ancestors of the human race.
After all, the Dacheng Holy Body suppressed the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths while alive, and together with the Queen Mother of the West, brought peace to an era. How could such meritorious deeds be blasphemed?
When the remains of the Dacheng Holy Body flew out and floated into the mist of chaos, the imperial energy wrapped around it, as if the body of the Queen Mother of the West had passively revived, sensing her husband's return.
Ye Fan saluted. Without this body, he would not have been able to participate in the previous supreme battle.
"The ancient supreme being, whether he was alive or dead, sacrificed everything and shed all his blood for the sake of all beings in the universe!" Gai Jiuyou sighed and saluted in return.
Cao Ya, Ji Zi, Jiang Taixu and others also respected him.
The little girl was confused and bowed accordingly.
Then, a group of people withdrew and came to the empty land of Eastern Wasteland. Previously, the Supreme Being was born and killed hundreds of millions of people. In addition, many living beings had migrated away long ago. But now, there are not many people in this huge Eastern Wasteland at all. Existence is desolate and lonely.
"Those guys found the right time." Suddenly, Gai Jiuyou sneered.
Cao Ya narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up at the sky.
Only billions of streams of light were seen, and restricted areas of life such as the Sea of Reincarnation, the Ancient Mines of Taichu, the Immortal Tombs, and the Divine Ruins, all returned and fell one after another after Beidou was reunited by the ruthless emperor.
"There are still many supreme beings..." Cao Ya said softly. He could sense that the Qi of the sleeping supreme beings in those forbidden areas of life was very weak, but at his level, he could still sense it.
For example, Taichu Ancient Mine, Shenxu, Immortal Mausoleum, and Tiantian Island all have more than one or two Supreme Beings, dormant in restricted areas, waiting for the next opening of the Immortal Road.
Even if Cao Ya is very powerful and can join forces to cover Jiuyou, he still has no confidence that he can break into any of the four restricted areas!
On the contrary, it is very likely that the resurrected Supreme will stay and eat it!
Become a great medicine to extend his life!
"However, the Sea of Reincarnation and the Mountain of Immortality..." Cao Ya turned his gaze again, thoughtfully.
These two restricted areas have caused countless dark turmoils. Over the past many thousands of years, although many extreme practitioners have entered, the ancient emperors of the past dynasties have also pacified a large number of supreme beings.
In addition, the Lord of Reincarnation and the Stone Emperor had just fallen. Now, there are not many Supremes left.
Like the Sea of Reincarnation, there is only one supreme being left, the weakest of the six restricted areas of life!
The Immortal Mountain is slightly better, but limited.
Of course, there are still a lot of supreme beings in restricted areas such as Taichu Ancient Mine and Tiantian Island, and they are still very scary.
"You have to plan carefully. You can't be careless. If you don't pay attention, I will fill in the restricted area and be eaten by the Supreme." Cao Ya thought to himself.
The main reason is that his current state is quite bad.
After fighting against the Stone Emperor and the Lord of Reincarnation, his body was covered with wounds and cracks. He would not be able to recover without tens or even hundreds of years!
To pacify the restricted area in this state is undoubtedly courting death.
"The great ancestors have already cleared the road. To lead us to enlightenment, we must eliminate the forbidden area!" Ye Fan said with firm will.
Ji Zi, Jiang Taixu, Hei Huang and others also nodded solemnly.
Later, Ye Fan and Heihuang left with their little girl. Ji Zi, Jiang Taixu, Gai Jiuyou and others also left Beidou to find relatives, friends, apprentices, etc., and moved back to Beidou.
Or just take root outside the territory, heal and recuperate, and wait for the times to change.
As for Cao Ya, he left Beidou and traveled across the starry sky. He still went to Feixianxing and retreated in the original cave to absorb the energy of heaven and earth and heal his injuries.
Occasionally, he would go out of seclusion to chat with the heroes on Feixianxing, or hold a banquet and have a drink.
Not only Ge Hong, Qiongqi Quasi-Emperor, Zhulong Quasi-Emperor, etc., but later on, Lao Tzu, Sakyamuni, Dou Zhan Buddha, the old madman, the ancient human demon Dongfang Taiyi, etc. all traveled to the world and arrived at Feixianxing.
This ancient star was the core of the heavens in the mythical era. At that time, there was also a restricted area for life, comparable to today's Beidou.
How could heroes from all over the world, who have traveled all over the world, not come to see such a strange place?
"Supreme Cao Ya, his meritorious deeds are closely related to nature. Before he attained Taoism, he was able to defeat the ancient supreme beings. This kind of power is unparalleled in the world and has been rare since ancient times. It is comparable to the body of chaos." Quasi-Emperor Qiongqi sighed.
He asked himself, in this life, he could at most become a quasi-emperor in the seventh or eighth heaven. Even those who were about to become enlightened in the ninth heaven had little hope, let alone defeat the heroes of the universe and achieve enlightenment and become an emperor!
Even the alternative enlightened ones, Qiongqi Quasi-Emperor and Zhulong Quasi-Emperor, also felt unsure.
It is enough to become a quasi-emperor and dominate a region.
"Throughout the ages, how many people have become emperors?" Ge Hong sighed.
He toasted Lao Tzu and Sakyamuni with a glass of wine. They were both from the earth and considered old friends.
The fighting Buddha and the human demon Dongfang Taiyi are all old people from ancient times who have been gathering dust to this day.
"I wonder what kind of cultivation the Supreme Cao Ya has?" The old madman was curious.
Hearing this, Dou Shengfo, Ge Hong, etc. all came to look at him.
Everyone is very strange, how can Cao Ya's power rival the Supreme!
As long as it is a normal supreme being who has cut himself off with a knife, it can be understood. After all, over millions of years, the number of alternative enlightened people has been greater than that of the extreme ones. The most classic one is Dacheng. The Holy Body, the Dacheng Hegemon Body.
But those who are alternatively enlightened can compete with ordinary supreme beings, but they are no match for the supreme ones who have been sublimated to the extreme and returned to the imperial way.
The latter is the Wuque Emperor, the only one in history!
However, in the dark and turbulent battle, Cao Ya clearly withstood the sublimated Stone Emperor and was on par with him!
This kind of performance spread throughout the universe, and all realms were amazed.
It's just that no one dared to ask him.
Nowadays, the banquet is held, and the heroes gather together and drink happily. This question is like a cat scratching it. It is really uncomfortable not to bring it up.
"Haha!" Cao Ya laughed, knowing that someone would ask him this question.
"I am a quasi-emperor, not yet enlightened. Let alone a great emperor, I am not even a different kind of enlightened person." Cao Ya said with a smile.
"Then why..." Everyone was confused.
"My path has another unique feature. It goes beyond cultivating the secret realm of the human body." Cao Ya mentioned it briefly without explaining it in detail.
In fact, in some systems, he's already a five-star.
The superposition of multiple systems can lead to today's great power!
After saying this, Cao Ya casually pinched a seal of "Nian Hua Smile", showing his unique side.
The heroes watched and marveled.
Shakyamuni and Victorious Buddha put their hands together and recited the Buddha's name.
In that seal technique, they felt a certain kind of Buddha nature, which was very mysterious and touching.
"It is said that in those ancient times, Yu Nei's practice method was very different from that of later generations." Dou defeated Buddhism.
"It's not just the name that's different, it's Tianzun, Ancient Emperor, Great Emperor, or Quasi-Zun, Quasi-Emperor, Quasi-Emperor, etc."
"These realms actually remain unchanged. They only changed their names in different eras."
"Before and after the ancient times, even the practice system was completely different in a real sense."
Speaking of this, the Victorious Buddha sighed:
"It's a pity that such a secret method has not been spread."
Regarding these secrets, the heroes present have more or less seen relevant records in some ancient books or Jedi.
They are all fascinated by the remote ancient scenery.
"It is said that in that era, the Immortal Three Killing Dao King could ascend and enter the Immortal Realm. Unlike now, even if many ancient emperors join forces, they cannot break through the Immortal Road and enter the Immortal Realm." The old madman lamented.
The world has changed greatly, and the sea has gone through great changes. It is nothing more than this.
"That was also an era when the material of immortality was rich. I only regret that we were not born in the ancient times!" Quasi-Emperor Qiongqi sighed.
Cao Ya knew that in the ancient times, the immortal realm and the mortal world were connected, and the immortality material was abundant. Ordinary monks could live for tens of thousands of years, and if they achieved a little success, it would take hundreds of thousands of years, or even millions of years, or thousands of years. Ten thousand years of bottoming!
The existence of the Supreme Realm can live for hundreds of millions of years without any problem.
In comparison, in the same realm, the life span of later generations of monks is thousands of times less than that in ancient times.
There is no way, the world is broken, the avenue is damaged, the material for immortality is scarce, and the endless monks in the future generations, born in such an era, can only bear such consequences, be born, grow and rise in this environment, and then die.
"Speaking of which, I also have the power system from ancient times in my body." Cao Ya thought to himself.
The person who entered the system space was Cao Ya, the [Perfect World].
But there is no need to mention this kind of secret to others.
"By the way, Shengfo, Princess Shencan, didn't you travel the universe with you?" Emperor Zhulong asked with a smile.
"I feel ashamed of her." Dou Shengming Buddha chanted the Buddha's name in a low voice.
At the end of the ancient times, he failed to stop the death of the Divine Silkworm Princess and stopped a powerful enemy. He still feels guilty.
Although, this can't be blamed on him.
The Dou Zhan Holy Emperor has passed away, and the world is in chaos. The person who attacked and killed him is also a top existence. How can he have the energy to look away?
Therefore, Princess Shencan, as well as the monks from Shencanling and Douzhan lineage, did not take this matter to heart. Anyway, the enemy has been killed, and people have come back to life. There is no need to think about those sad past events.
But he defeated the Buddha himself, but he couldn't get out.
For many years, Princess Shencan has been looking for Dou Zhanfo's footprints and wants to see him again, but Dou Zhanfo has been avoiding her.
Such deeds have also been heard by all the heroes present.
He even met the Divine Silkworm Princess and was asked about the information about the victorious Buddha.
"Evasion is not an option." Cao Ya shook his head.
But it is difficult for others to intervene in this kind of emotional matter, and it is not easy to say anything. It is purely about whether you can get rid of the inner demons by defeating yourself.
"Over the past few years, Wan Realm has been silent, but it has lost the charm of the past golden age." Ge Hong said.
"The aftermath of the dark turmoil, sorrow and grief, always takes time to heal." Lao Tzu said.
Everyone was silent for a while.
"In this life, various physiques have appeared, including emperor's son, emperor's daughter, prince, princess, etc., countless heroes, but I don't know which one will be the one in the end who defeats countless strong men and reaches the pinnacle of enlightenment?" Qiongqi Quasi-Emperor said.
"The Ancient Holy Body, the Yuanling Body, the Divine King Body, the Heavenly Demon Body, the Buddha Body, the Demon Body, as well as the innate Tao Fetus and other special bodies, as well as Dao Yi, Ji Zi, Sheng Prince, Huo Lin'er, Huo Qi Zi , Shen Can Taoist, Huang Xu Tao and other great emperors and ancient princes’ heirs.”
"In millions of years, such a great world has never happened before."
"Perhaps, only in the last years of mythology, when the Emperor established the Ancient Heavenly Palace and conquered the world, can we see the same splendid and prosperous age!"
All the heroes were in admiration and discussed the genius of the world. They had different opinions on who would become the emperor.
They didn't think that they could become emperor.
At most, he could be a quasi-emperor, or a different kind of enlightenment!
The main reason is that they are old and have lost the vigor to make progress. They compete for supremacy in the imperial way and fall into a disadvantage.
Even if you are three to five thousand years young, you will still be dissatisfied and want to kill yourself to fight for the throne!
Now...
Forget it!
There is no such decisive Taoist heart that is dedicated to the imperial way!
What state you can reach depends purely on chance and good fortune, and there is no need to force it.
Suddenly, Cao Ya smiled and said, "You have forgotten something."
The heroes were startled, turned to look at Cao Ya, and burst into laughter.
"I have indeed forgotten! Aren't the people closest to the Emperor right now sitting next to us?"
