Emperor Wu Shihuang's handwriting, do not go out of the Milky Way border

Therefore, Yuan Heng forced himself to remain calm and asked in a hoarse voice, "Since you have chosen me to appear before you, what is the purpose of this meeting?"

Ying Zheng understood his thoughts, realizing that his presence before this young man was due to the opportunity granted by his second senior uncle. Establishing a karmic connection was key to breaking the deadlock, making it the perfect time to take him as a disciple.

After all, this person is destined to become a Dao Ancestor in the Primordial Chaos Realm, someone even the current Ying Zheng would have to look up to. It's a pity that his Dao Fruit was corrupted and cannot be retrieved; otherwise, he could immediately gain a Daoist on the verge of enlightenment.

However, it wasn't that Ying Zheng was arrogant. Even if he accepted this future Dao Ancestor as his disciple, so what? He was confident that he could also become the Primordial Limitless Dao Ancestor in the future.

Moreover, Yuan Heng, who has been reincarnated, is now nothing more than an ant in the Supreme Realm. For him to be taken in as a disciple by this Primordial Dao Master is an immense opportunity.

Therefore, Ying Zheng said solemnly, "Seeing your exceptional talent, I wish to take you as my disciple. What do you think?"

Yuan Heng looked surprised: "Senior, you want to take me as your disciple?"

“Indeed. We are destined to meet, so make a decision quickly.” Ying Zheng remained calm and composed, showing no urgency, but the invisible pressure made Yuan Heng hesitate.

Although he was confident that becoming an Immortal Emperor was a certainty, he only had a slim chance of reaching the Sacrifice Dao realm. As for the Sacrifice Dao realm beyond the Heavenly Emperor level, he had even less confidence.

When he first ascended to the Supreme Ranking of the Three Realms, Emperor Ye praised him and bestowed upon him an imperial decree, but did not mention taking on any disciples. Perhaps it was a test, or perhaps he was waiting until he became a True Immortal or Immortal King before taking on disciples.

The being before them, whose strength was no less than that of the Three Heavenly Emperors, though whose background was unknown, should not be from the strange race.

Since he is not from a strange race, it doesn't matter: "Disciple Yuan Heng greets Master!"

Ying Zheng's eyes shone with a bright smile: "Excellent. It is your good fortune, and also mine, to be able to become my disciple. Keep this Creation Lotus Seed safe; consider it my gift to you as a disciple, and also a symbol of my lineage. Remember my Daoist title—Hongmeng Daozun!"

"Primordial Dao Venerable!" Yuan Heng murmured this title, feeling utterly arrogant. Even the Great Dao had to respect him—what audacity!
Then he looked at the green lotus seed in Ying Zheng's hand, which resembled a precious jade. This lotus seed exuded a faint aura of life-giving energy; a mere whiff of it made one feel as if they were floating on air, and its replenishment of life essence was extremely powerful, instantly strengthening the physical body: "Master, what is this?"

"This is the Creation Green Lotus Seed, which comes from my twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus and is a primordial spiritual treasure. With the investment of resources to nurture it, it will surely become a ninth-grade Creation Green Lotus, reaching the rank of a superior primordial spiritual treasure, with defensive power comparable to an ordinary top-grade primordial spiritual treasure. If you have enough luck, it may even evolve into a top-grade primordial spiritual treasure, the twelfth-grade Creation Green Lotus, which will be enough for you to use until you reach the Sacrifice Dao Realm."

Ying Zheng explained the origin of the lotus seed to Yuan Heng.

Upon hearing this, Yuan Heng's eyes burned with fervor. Although he did not know how precious innate spiritual treasures were, the fact that it was sufficient for sacrificial purposes demonstrated the value of this Creation Green Lotus Seed.

"You should have guessed that I come from beyond this realm. This world is a chessboard where two supreme beings play a game. The reason I scattered into rain was because I touched that one. Although my master uncle saved me, this clone's strength is less than a hundred percent of what it used to be. You don't have much time left."

"Digest this information carefully. Later, I will use my supernatural powers to help you quickly improve your cultivation without harming your essence," Ying Zheng solemnly instructed.

Listening to the information Ying Zheng presented, Yuan Heng's eyes were filled with astonishment. Even his master, whose strength rivaled that of the Three Heavenly Emperors, was called an unparalleled being—just how terrifying must that be?
Since it is a chessboard for two supreme beings to play against each other, then the two forces should represent the Three Heavenly Emperors and the Mysterious Wasteland.

Thinking of this, Yuan Heng's expression was conflicted. Did his master's words about not having much time left mean that the final battle was about to begin?
If that's the case, how could he, a mere ant of humanity, survive in this cruel battlefield?
At this moment, Yuan Heng was eager to improve his strength and looked at Ying Zheng expectantly. Ying Zheng pointed a finger, and a massive amount of information flooded into his mind, allowing him to know the basic situation of all the heavens and myriad realms, the division of realms and the types of spiritual treasures, as well as the current situation of this realm—the decisive battle had been brought forward due to the intervention of a third-party force.

Just as Yuan Heng was silently processing the information, Ying Zheng directly used the Primordial Dao to simulate the cycle of reincarnation: "Divine Power - Hundred Lifetimes of Reincarnation!"

In an instant, Yuan Heng's divine sense fell into reincarnation, tempering his character in a world simulated by supernatural powers.

Because this disciple is the reincarnation of the master of the Three Incarnations of the Bronze Coffin, and due to the fusion with the parasitized laws, his cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds. What he lacks now is not an improvement in cultivation level, but rather in realm and temperament.

Throughout countless reincarnations, Yuan Heng has experienced numerous worlds, sometimes living in a golden age of cultivation, and sometimes falling into the Dharma-ending Age. He even fought for the throne in the Dharma-ending Age, and in a daze, he seemed to have undergone nine transformations, stepping onto the path of immortality in the mortal world, becoming a supreme being and being revered as the Heavenly Emperor.

However, Yuan Heng knew in his heart that all of this was an illusion. He gazed at the vast starry sky before him and murmured, "It's time to go back..."

As the words fell, this world began to crumble. While undergoing a hundred lifetimes of reincarnation, Yuan Heng's physical body also underwent a transformation.

In just a few days, he completed three transformations, achieving the feat of becoming an immortal through nine lifetimes, and condensed the Battle Immortal Dao Fruit and the Mortal Immortal Dao Fruit.

With the power of the two Dao Fruits, Yuan Heng instantly stepped into the Immortal King realm, his combat strength reaching the level of a giant among Immortal Kings, making him one of the best among Immortal Kings.

Immortal light swirled around him, and boundless battle intent surged against the Immortal King Formation.

"Boom!"

In a short while, the Immortal King Formation collapsed under the immense pressure, and the entire Ye family trembled under the aura of the Immortal King.

Although the Immortal King artifact that Yuan Heng had placed within the clan was activated, the Immortal King artifact not only showed no intention of resisting, but instead displayed a joyful and excited attitude, while protecting the Ye family members from the influence of the Immortal King aura.

When the aura of the Celestial King erupted, the stars trembled and the sun and moon retreated!
Within the Boundless Great Heaven Continent, countless beings could sense that soaring aura, which was comparable to the Boundless Immortal King who was stationed in the state capital.

At this moment, the Boundless Immortal King, residing in the prefecture, gazed at the vast power and immortal battle intent rising from the direction of the Ye family and couldn't help but sigh: "How long has it been? He has already become an Immortal King. Moreover, his power far surpasses mine. All these endless years of arduous cultivation have truly been wasted, as he has been surpassed by a junior who is not even sixty years old!"

At the same time, Yuan Heng, who had concealed his aura, respectfully bowed to Ying Zheng: "Thank you for your guidance, Master. If it weren't for you, I would have had to spend a lot more time to become an Immortal King."

"No need for formalities. Now that you have become a Celestial King, you should know that you must undergo the Nine Revolutions of Gods and Demons, reverse your innate nature, and ascend to the Great Luo realm. The Celestial Emperor has never been your ultimate goal, but becoming a Great Luo is by no means easy. If you were to borrow my power, you could achieve it quickly, but it would be fraught with hidden dangers and could ruin your future. I'm sure you wouldn't want that," Ying Zheng said, feigning emotion.

Yuan Heng replied without hesitation, "Master, you are wise. That is not what I seek. I am willing to rely on my own strength to climb to the pinnacle step by step."

"I hope you will continue to work diligently, for time is indeed running out," Ying Zheng sighed softly.

These words stirred a sense of urgency in Yuan Heng's heart. Just then, the Heavenly Emperor's Decree, which he regarded as his most precious protective treasure, suddenly emitted a ghostly light, and a majestic voice resounded throughout the heavens and earth: "Yuan Heng, come to the Heavenly Court immediately for an audience!"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded slightly, and his figure transformed into a stream of light, disappearing into Yuan Heng's body.

Yuan Heng immediately put away the Heavenly Emperor's Decree and instantly connected with the Heavenly Court that suppressed the Three Thousand Heavenly Continents. The golden road stretched out, and he stepped onto it, his figure disappearing into the Heavenly Court. This action was witnessed by countless beings in the Three Thousand Heavenly Continents.

"How much time has passed, yet he has already become a Celestial King, and he is far from ordinary among Celestial Kings. According to my ancestor, his combat strength has reached the level of a giant!"

"Truly a prodigy who has walked the Nine Revolutions of the Mortal World Immortal Path!"

"With Yuan Heng around, the rise of the Ye family is unstoppable!"

"..."

At this moment, Ying Zheng, who was residing in Yuan Heng's body, felt that something was different after he woke up.

He looked into the primordial space formed by this clone and saw a formation diagram and four killing swords lying quietly within it.

Endless destructive and murderous power flowed within, revealing an aura of ancient vicissitudes. The four killing swords were engraved with the four characters "诛" (Zhū), "戮" (Lù), "陷" (Xiàn), and "绝" (Jué), clearly indicating that they were the Four Swords of Zhuxian.

This is a terrifying sword formation symbolizing countless concepts of the Great Dao, such as slaughter, the end of the world, doomsday, destruction, extinction, annihilation, and ruin.

But why did this thing suddenly appear inside my body? Judging from the vast aura it exudes, it should be a Chaos Treasure that my master sublimated.

It is neither copper, nor iron, nor steel; it was once hidden beneath Mount Sumeru.

If you don't need to reverse the yin and yang to refine, how can there be no water and fire to temper the edge?

Slaying immortals brings profit, killing immortals brings death, and trapping immortals causes red light to rise everywhere.

The changes of the immortals are endless and wonderful, and the clothes of the great gods are stained with blood.

Suddenly, a faint voice rang out from within the Zhuxian Sword Formation: "Disciple, when the time is right, set up the Zhuxian Sword Formation to lend your master a hand."

Ying Zheng replied respectfully, "I will obey your orders, Master!"

Immediately, the brilliance of the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation returned to calm. Ying Zheng gazed at the sword formation, a sense of envy welling up within him.

This is the Immortal Slaughtering Sword Formation, which has been elevated to the level of a Chaos Treasure. Once set up, it is extremely difficult to break without the combined efforts of four powerful beings at the Primordial Chaos Limitless Realm.

It can be called the number one killing formation in the chaos, and even the many killing formations created by the Demon Ancestor Rahu have to give way.

At this moment, Yuan Heng paid no attention to the discussions of the crowd. He entered the Lingxiao Palace and bowed to the illusory figure sitting on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor: "Yuan Heng greets Heavenly Emperor Ye!"

The hazy figure formed from a wisp of Emperor Ye's will chuckled, "Yuan Heng, you've given me quite a surprise. You've actually condensed the dual Dao Fruits of the Mortal Immortal and the Battle Immortal, and ascended to the Immortal King realm. I thought it would still take some time, but I didn't expect such rapid progress. You must have had another stroke of luck. However, this is your destiny, and I cannot delve into it further. The reason I summoned you today is to ask if you would be willing to become my disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Yuan Heng's expression stiffened; this had truly presented him with a difficult problem.

After Ying Zheng transmitted his voice, he spoke with difficulty: "Reporting to the Heavenly Emperor, Yuan Heng has already become a disciple of the Heavenly Emperor."

Emperor Ye Tian looked surprised: "I originally intended to take you as my disciple after you became an Immortal King, but I didn't expect that some fellow Daoist would beat me to it. May I ask your master's name?"

"My master is the Venerable Hongmeng Daoist," Yuan Heng replied solemnly.

"Hongmeng Daozun, what a grand spirit!" Emperor Ye Tian's face showed displeasure.

As he uttered this title, the boundless power of the Primordial Dao flowed, and in a trance, an avatar appeared before Emperor Ye: "Seeing such a fine talent, since you have not yet accepted me as your disciple, I will take my leave first. If there has been any abruptness, I apologize."

The moment Ying Zheng appeared, his hazy figure sitting on the throne of the Heavenly Emperor suddenly solidified.

At the same time, two hidden wills descended from the heavens above, namely the Stone Emperor and the Chu Emperor.

Emperor Ye stared intently at Ying Zheng: "A person from outside the realm. Recently, there have indeed been many visitors from the outside world to this realm, but you are still the first to possess strength comparable to that of an Emperor Ye."

Emperor Ye's words were filled with wariness. When Ying Zheng revealed the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos, the flowing power made Emperor Ye realize that he would find it difficult to subdue this person from beyond the realm.

If this person becomes their enemy, the situation in the Great World of Heaven will inevitably reverse, which will be extremely bad news for them.
This is precisely why the Stone Emperor and the Chu Emperor were so tense, and why they were distracted by the situation.

They were even more eager to know what the people from outside the boundary intended to do here.
Although restrained by the strange race, they were never able to leave this world.

However, they were not entirely ignorant of the world beyond. They understood that with their current cultivation level, they could be called the Primordial Dao Lord in the Endless Chaos Sea, a supreme being who ruled over a region.

Above them were only Dao Ancestors at the Hunyuan Wuji realm. They vaguely guessed that the situation in the Great Heavenly World might be the result of a power struggle between the two Dao Ancestors.

"What are you outsiders plotting to intrude into this realm?" Emperor Ye Tian asked condescendingly.

His tone was aggressive and decisive, and at the same time, the entire Heavenly Court formation was activated, ready to unleash a thunderous strike at any moment.

Under the terrifying killing intent, even a Celestial King like Yuan Heng found it difficult to mobilize even the slightest bit of his power.

If it weren't for Ying Zheng's protection, he would have been suppressed on the ground in a miserable state by now.

Faced with the current situation, Yuan Heng also felt very nervous and absolutely did not want the forces outside the realm represented by his master to become enemies of the Three Heavenly Emperors.

At this moment, Ying Zheng chuckled and said, "Why be so tense? You all shouldn't be so wary of me. After all, I've come here to help you in a way. I would like to ask the other two Heavenly Emperors to show themselves. Hiding in the shadows to eavesdrop is truly unbecoming of a Heavenly Emperor."

Upon hearing these pointed words, the Stone Emperor and the Chu Emperor, hidden in the void, exchanged a glance. Now that they had been seen through, there was no need to remain concealed.

Their original intention in hiding was to prepare for the possibility of Ying Zheng becoming their enemy, so that they could join forces with Emperor Ye to suppress him.

However, since Ying Zheng showed no hostility, hiding in this way was indeed impolite.

"As long as they are not here to help the strange race, we will welcome them." Emperor Shi descended slowly with an elegant demeanor, walking side by side with Emperor Chu, his domineering aura evident in his powerful strides.

The three Heavenly Emperors gathered together, their auras intertwined, subtly testing Ying Zheng's confidence.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng did not hide anything: "When I first arrived in this world, I was somewhat reckless and provoked the being behind the strange race. I was almost devoured by it. Later, my senior uncle took action and I was able to get out of trouble."

"Unfortunately, the strength of the clones that entered this realm is almost entirely gone, and due to the intervention of another force, the chess game between my master and that being is likely to reach its peak. The strange race will surely take action soon, so everyone should prepare in advance."

The three Heavenly Emperors looked at each other in astonishment upon hearing this. Only a Dao Ancestor at the Hunyuan Wuji realm could easily suppress a Hunyuan Dao Lord.

Their previous guesses were indeed correct, and they never expected that one of them would be the senior master of this Hongmeng Daoist.

Judging from this, there must be at least two Dao Ancestors at the Hunyuan Wuji realm standing behind this person, so he is indeed not someone to be easily offended.

The three emperors were relieved that Ying Zheng had not come to oppose them, otherwise they would have been in real trouble.

A single misstep could lead to the destruction of the entire Celestial Realm. (End of Chapter)
