Ying Zheng hesitated slightly. This was the true meaning of the Great Dao of the Sun, personally demonstrated by a Dao Ancestor-level expert.

But isn't this a bit too much? To grasp the true meaning of the Great Dao means to have the hope of wielding this Dao.

Seeing Ying Zheng hesitate, Donghuang Taiyi laughed and said, "Since I have decided to abandon this path, there is no need to worry. Study it carefully. The stronger you are, the more you can help me retrieve the Dao Fruit."

Ying Zheng glanced at Donghuang Taiyi with displeasure: "Are you using me as a tool? Fine, for the sake of the profound mysteries of the Great Way of the Sun, I will not hold it against you."

Amidst Donghuang Taiyi's loud laughter, his illusory figure vanished and coalesced into a vast, radiant sun.

This great sun exudes an incomparably brilliant and profound Daoist charm, which is the true meaning of the Great Dao of the Sun.

Ying Zheng gazed at the sun, as if in a trance he were facing the very path of the sun. His mind was completely absorbed in it, a single glance lasting an eternity.

When he opened his eyes again, his aura had become even more domineering.

At this moment, he has integrated part of the true meaning of the Sun Avenue into the Primordial Chaos Avenue, allowing it to grow even further.

Today, Ying Zheng's Hongmeng Dao already contains a nearly complete Sun Dao and Bagua Dao.

In terms of its strength, it can almost crush an unrefined Great Dao.

Upon waking, Ying Zheng looked at Donghuang Taiyi, who had fallen into a deep sleep once again, and turned to leave without hesitation.

From their conversation, he could sense that Donghuang Taiyi was in extremely poor condition; otherwise, given his proud nature, he would never have sought help from others.

Ying Zheng speculated that although Donghuang Taiyi had some reservations, what he said should be true.

Out of consideration for past relationships and the favors owed, he was determined to help.

Moreover, this world might help Yiheng achieve the Great Luo, thereby inheriting the throne of the Heavenly Emperor and escaping the shackles of human karma.

After leaving the original space, Ying Zheng used his physical power to lock onto Li Yiheng, who was undergoing training in a certain middle-thousand world and had already reached the Golden Immortal realm.

Ying Zheng could sense that the rules of the imperial way cultivated by Li Yiheng were extremely compatible with the imperial throne.

If it could be elevated to the level of imperial laws, it would be most appropriate.

As expected, his vision was exceptional; the person he randomly selected back then turned out to be a genius destined for the imperial path.

At this moment, Li Yiheng, who almost ruled the entire Middle Thousand Worlds and established the Immortal Dynasty, disappeared from the throne, leaving behind only the jade seal that suppressed the fortune of the Immortal Dynasty.

Li Yiheng snapped out of his daze and saw Ying Zheng standing in front of him. His eyes lit up with joy: "Master! Yiheng has finally seen you again!"

Ying Zheng lightly tapped his forehead, and this little incident only made the bond between master and disciple seem even stronger: "I am in my prime, how can I look old?"

Li Yiheng rubbed his forehead, his former majesty as the ruler of the Immortal Dynasty completely gone: "Master is right, it was Yiheng who misspoke."

After a few lighthearted words, Li Yiheng respectfully inquired, "May I ask what brings Master here today?"

Ying Zheng examined Li Yiheng with satisfaction. His cultivation foundation and the strength of his primordial spirit were flawless, clearly indicating that he had been steadily cultivating the Emperor's Conferment of Gods Technique.

"Your foundation is quite solid, meeting my requirements. Now it's time to plan the path to the Great Luo," Ying Zheng said solemnly.

Li Yiheng's eyes gleamed. Although he had the system's assistance, he knew all too well how difficult it was to reach the Great Luo realm.

Even with the support of the human fortune of the two middle-thousand worlds, it is still far from enough.

Hearing that his master was going to guide him on the path to becoming a Great Luo Immortal, how could Li Yiheng not be excited?

"Master, what should this disciple do?" Li Yiheng asked without hesitation.

"This world is the experimental ground of my old friend. I want you to ascend to the throne of the Holy Emperor," Ying Zheng said calmly.

Li Yiheng immediately agreed: "Not to mention the position of Holy Emperor, I am willing to sweep away all the disciples in this realm!"

"You have ambition; you truly are my good disciple," Ying Zheng said with a joking smile.

Seeing his master's expression, Li Yiheng felt a sense of foreboding.
Ying Zheng then transmitted the basic information about this realm. As the information was interpreted, Li Yiheng's expression became increasingly complex.

He raised his head, forcing a smile, and said, "Master, I regret it. Can the mission be cancelled?"

"Having already agreed, how can you go back on your word? Didn't you just say you would sweep across this world?" Ying Zheng looked at him with a half-smile.

Li Yiheng's face immediately turned bitter. Recalling the information from this realm—

Only those who reach the Nine Revolutions of Gods and Demons can be ennobled as marquises, those in the Great Luo Realm are revered as kings, and the Saint Emperor level beings are actually the Lord of the Primordial Chaos.

How could a mere Golden Immortal like him possibly cope with such a terrifying world?
He was not ignorant; the Primordial Dao Master was at the level of his master.

His previous goal was only to achieve the Great Luo realm, which is the realm of a king. Now he wants to transcend the realm of kings and marquises and go straight for the Holy Emperor. How is this possible?

Looking at Li Yiheng, who was looking dejected, Ying Zheng patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, how could your teacher be unprepared? Go ahead with peace of mind."

Before he finished speaking, Li Yiheng's figure had already transformed into a stream of light and instantly disappeared into a magnificent city, taking over the body of a recently deceased person.

Thanks to Ying Zheng's actions and the cover-up provided by the Great Dao of the Sun, even if the Lord of Hunyuan Dao personally came to investigate, he would find it difficult to discover any clues.

At this moment, Li Yiheng, who was now in possession of this newly deceased body, felt the faint power within him and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "It's truly a world-shattering beginning. In such a terrifying world, my master actually wants me to participate in the struggle for the Holy Emperor. Isn't that asking the impossible? Fortunately, my master is here to oversee things, so there is still room for maneuver. Otherwise, I would surely be dead!"

After receiving the memories of this body, Li Yiheng breathed a slight sigh of relief: "A clean start with no relatives or friends. Although my cultivation aptitude is mediocre, it doesn't matter. Let's try out the cultivation system of this world, but this technique is really crude and needs to be improved."

Just as Li Yiheng was adapting to his new body and beginning his cultivation.

Ying Zheng's gaze swept over this divine city that stretched for thousands of miles, inhabited by nearly 10 billion living beings.

The city's spiritual energy is exceptionally active, making it particularly suitable for human cultivation.

This is the result of the human race's grand formation, which gathers the essence of heaven and earth in the region to each city, both to aid human cultivation and to repel other races.

This city is named Wushuang, and it was the territory of King Wushuang, who was enfeoffed hundreds of billions of years ago.

Now, Ying Zheng has his eye on the body of the Peerless King—to act in this vast world, one must always have a visible identity.

This peerless king, who ranks among the three elders of the human race's celestial dynasty, is the youngest of all the kings, yet his strength is unfathomable, which is why he holds such a high position.

If his cultivation level were to advance further, it would perfectly explain the commotion he caused earlier.

At this moment, Ying Zheng appeared in the small world created by the Peerless King, where the law of balance flowed.

The balance principle cultivated by the Peerless King is quite special, which can balance the strength of both sides, and can bring them to an equal combat power even when encountering a strong enemy.

If the opponent is weak, there is no need to use the characteristics of the laws; one can simply crush them with strength.

This is also what allowed Wushuang Wang to be ranked among the Three Elders.

Before the Peerless King, no matter how ancient a king you are, you can only fight him to a draw.

The title "Peerless" originated from this.

The moment Ying Zheng stepped into this small world, the law of balance immediately caught his attention.

Such special laws are rarely cultivated by living beings, and even he had never included them in his records.

Just as Ying Zheng was comprehending the profound meaning of the law of balance, the Peerless King suddenly awoke.

The peerless chains above his head were poised to strike, instantly binding Ying Zheng's entire body: "Who goes there? Infiltrating my secluded cultivation place, are you perhaps a spy from one of the myriad races? Since you have been able to enter this realm, your cultivation must be extraordinary. Why bother serving foreign races?"

Seeing the Peerless King's confident demeanor, Ying Zheng's lips curled slightly: "It seems you think you have victory firmly in your grasp?"

"boom!"

Ying Zheng's body trembled slightly, and the mid-grade acquired spiritual treasure, refined by the law of balance, shattered in response, its spiritual light dimmed when it returned to its original state.

Seeing Ying Zheng break free of the chains of balance, the Peerless King's pupils constricted, and he exclaimed in horror, "You are an emperor!" "You have good eyesight. I've come to borrow your body. Give it to me!"

Ying Zheng's figure entered the body of the Peerless King, instantly suppressing his soul and true spirit.

All means were sealed off, and all backup plans were eliminated along the causal path. Furthermore, the Primordial Chaos Great Dao was used to connect with the Peerless King's primordial spirit to ensure that no flaws were revealed.

Although the emperors have all departed, each race and power still retains its most precious treasures for proving their Dao at their core.

Among these methods were those for detecting outsiders, which is why Ying Zheng did not take the life of Wushuang Wang.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was perusing the memories of the Peerless King. This vast world was called the Eternal Universe Great World.

As one of the three elders of the human race's Heavenly Dynasty, the Peerless King was unaware of the truth behind the successive departures of the Heavenly Emperors a million years ago.

But he vaguely sensed that this was a scheme orchestrated by the emperors.

Because the emperor had left, all forces lay dormant and did not emerge.

The once war-torn Hengyu Great World has been strangely peaceful for millions of years.

Hundreds of thousands of years ago, not only did no one seek out the traces of the emperor, but the Peerless King himself went to the forbidden zone of Tianyuan.

This forbidden zone of the Heavenly Abyss has existed since ancient times and is extremely mysterious. The Peerless King was severely injured when he last broke in and has been recuperating here ever since.

However, he did not gain nothing; he vaguely sensed the aura of an emperor deep within the Tianyuan Forbidden Zone.

Ying Zheng gazed into the direction of the Heavenly Abyss Forbidden Zone. Within it, immortal roots and spiritual flowers bloomed everywhere, and the essence of heaven and earth transformed into a liquid, its rules teeming with activity.

The killing array and restrictions imprinted in the void prevent living beings from setting foot there.

Deep within the forbidden zone of Tianyuan, Ying Zheng vaguely saw a figure that was neither human nor beast, sleeping soundly.

Its aura is quite similar to that of the Hun Tian Clan recorded by the human race.

The Hun Tian Clan was originally the most powerful race in the Hengyu Great World, and the Hun Tian Continent was named after them.

In ancient times, war broke out because the Hun Tian Clan wanted to seize the throne.

Resisted by all races, the entire Hun Tian Continent was shattered, and the Hun Tian Clan was banished from the main world.

Indeed, these emperors who possessed the Primordial Dao Fruit were not the first generation.

Their power all stems from the throne. Since the birth of the world, there have been several recorded changes of the throne.

The human race's Holy Emperor is the one who recently succeeded to the throne.

It seems that many cunning and scheming individuals lurk in this realm. In Ying Zheng's perception, the Hun Tian Clan beings within the forbidden zone, possessing a half-step Hunyuan Dao Fruit, must have abandoned the throne.

Therefore, his realm fell, and he relied entirely on his own arduous cultivation to return to the half-step Hunyuan realm.

It is clear that the beings in this world are not foolish; they are well aware of the dangers to the throne.

Therefore, they tried every means to get rid of it, even faking their death to escape.

What were the twelve emperors of that era planning when they departed one after another millions of years ago?
This must be closely related to the throne.

The previous hasty exploration failed to clarify the true nature of this realm, and now it seems that this mission is more difficult than expected.

Furthermore, subsequent plans need to be adjusted, and who knows if there are old monsters faking their death and hiding among the human race.

If one inadvertently reveals their true colors, it will create further complications.

After all, the commotion he caused earlier was between the power of a king and an emperor, and most of those who sensed it thought he was a half-step emperor.

But what those old monsters will think remains to be seen.

Just as Ying Zheng was pondering, a strange innate aura swept across the desolate plains, shaking the entire Peerless City and the Silent Mountains.

Ying Zheng looked in that direction and vaguely sensed the rising power of the laws, a sign that the innate spiritual treasure was about to be born after its gestation was complete.

Moreover, such a phenomenon is by no means an ordinary innate spiritual treasure; it is at least of the superior grade, or even the top grade.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with a sharp light. Perhaps innate spiritual treasures were not enough to lure out those hidden old monsters.

But if a supreme innate treasure were to appear in the world, let's see if you can suppress your greed.

In the blink of an eye, Ying Zheng's figure vanished, using the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos as cover to silently arrive at the desolate plains.

This plain is located at the boundary between the human and demon races, with the Silent Mountains of the demon race and the Peerless City of the human race on either side.

The Silent Mountains are home to the Demon Clan's royal family, the Fighting Holy Ape. Its king, the Holy Ape King, is incredibly powerful and follows the path of proving the Dao through strength.

Among all the kings, his combat strength ranks among the top three, which is why the Peerless King was sent by the Celestial Dynasty to build a city here.

Specifically designed to guard against the Holy Ape King. Sensing the imminent birth of a primordial spiritual treasure, the silent mountains echoed with the incessant howls of apes.

In a small world carved out deep within the mountains, the Holy Ape King, slumbering like a mountain, was awakened by his descendants.

He opened his eyes, which were as bright as the sun and moon, and a boundless fighting spirit surged forth: "A primordial spiritual treasure has appeared? This treasure should belong to my Fighting Holy Ape clan!"

The Divine Ape Marquis, who stood respectfully to the side, said cautiously, "Father, the human race must have received the news. That Peerless King is not easy to deal with."

The Holy Ape King's expression was solemn, and the image of the Peerless King appeared in his eyes with great apprehension. He said in a deep voice, "Send a message to the Blood Dragon Clan. It's time to repay the favors we owed back then."

The divine ape respectfully obeyed the command, unleashing its demonic power and transforming into a stream of light that rushed straight towards the Blood Dragon Clan's territory.

It's worthwhile to exchange favors from a king for top-grade or even supreme-grade innate spiritual treasures.

Because they were trapped in the Great World of Eternal Universe, the innate spiritual treasures were extremely precious.

All races need innate spiritual treasures to suppress their fortune, but they cannot leave the realm. They can only rely on the innate spiritual treasure embryos that were conceived by the collision of the laws and chaos at the beginning of the creation of heaven and earth.

Currently, the Fighting Saint Ape Clan only has one low-grade innate spiritual treasure to suppress their fortune, which is barely enough.

This is also why it ranks in the middle to lower range among the royal families of the demon race.

The lack of high-grade innate spiritual treasures to suppress misfortune is an important standard for measuring the strength of a race.

Although Ying Zheng's true body had gone to the desolate plains, he left an avatar to oversee the situation. Under the cover of the Great Dao of Primordial Chaos, no one could detect it.

The three marquises under the command of the Peerless King—the Marquis of Divine Valor, the Marquis of Silver Moon, and the Marquis of Zhenyue—sensed the unusual activity.

Upon receiving Ying Zheng's order, they immediately mobilized their troops, with the Peerless Army and the three major legions advancing simultaneously into the desolate plains.

At this moment, all forces within Wushuang City have learned of the imminent appearance of the innate spiritual treasure.

Since ancient times, most innate spiritual treasures have been born one after another and were seized by various races and forces as important treasures to ward off evil.

Innate spiritual treasures are becoming increasingly rare. The most recent one was the Mountain-Mountain-Driving Whip, a top-grade innate spiritual treasure that appeared millions of years ago and was acquired by the human race.

On the human side, the blood energy, the iron will of soldiers, divine light, immortal light, and Buddhist light illuminate the desolate plains; on the other side of the silent mountains, the howls of apes shake the heavens, and the overwhelming demonic aura obscures the sun and moon.

Because of the birth of the innate spiritual treasure, the desolate plains are already showing signs of an impending storm.

It should be noted that although there have been constant minor skirmishes over the past million years, there has never been a war in which a king or nobleman personally intervened!

At most, these are small-scale skirmishes between the legions under the command of kings and nobles, used to hone the soldiers' skills.

Now that the king and nobles have appeared, who knows how many lives they will lose if they make a move.

At this moment, Ying Zheng's figure appeared deep within the desolate plains. The will of heaven and earth watched over this place, protecting the innate spiritual treasure that was not yet fully formed. (End of Chapter)
