The Lord of All Gods Who Covers the Sky

Chapter 588: Immortal King Sutra

In the Sutra Library of Qionghua Palace, the densely packed sutras are neatly arranged on the bookshelves, and you can't see the end at a glance.

"The wisdom of the world tens of times greater than that of the nine heavens and ten earths over millions of years is truly astonishing!"

Ji Hongjing was amazed. He was a person who loved reading. The body-spirit method could help him acquire knowledge quickly. After he became emperor, all the classics collected by the major imperial clans of Beidou were opened to him. However, those classics were nothing compared to this scripture library.

"The Sutra Library has nine floors. The first three floors are human classics, the middle three floors are True Immortal early classics, the seventh floor is True Immortal middle classics, the eighth floor is True Immortal late classics, and the last floor is Immortal King classics, but there are not many of them. Mother has instructed that you can move freely in the Sutra Library, but please don't destroy the scriptures or take them out."

A fairy led the way for Ji Hongjing and others. She was the daughter of the Palace Master of Qionghua Palace and had a noble status. She was sent to entertain Ji Hongjing and others without any complaints.

"Of course. Please rest assured, Young Palace Master, we will take good care of these scriptures." Ji Hongjing said.

"That's good. If you need anything, you can call me. Mother has ordered me to receive you all before you go to heaven."

"Thank you, Young Palace Master!" After expressing their gratitude, everyone dispersed, wandering in the ocean of knowledge.

The Young Palace Master looked at these people's backs curiously. She knew that these people were extremely talented and incredibly strong, and it was hard to find rivals among people of the same realm. But where did they come from and why had she never heard of them before?
"Does mother know something? Otherwise why would she let me entertain them?" The woman murmured to herself, and finally her eyes fell on Ji Chengdao, her cheeks slightly red.

"How come this guy doesn't know how to be gentle and kind to women?" During the talent selection ceremony, she met Ji Chengdao and was defeated after fighting for tens of thousands of rounds, contributing one point to him.

She was the daughter of the Immortal King, and was originally annoyed at being defeated by an unknown boy. However, every time she thought of this man's heroic figure, she could not help blushing and could no longer be angry.

"This little brat is so lucky!"

Ji Haoyue patted the back of Ji Chengdao's head with a smile. Among the tens of thousands of people brought into the fairyland by Ji Hongjing, there were very few women suitable for Ji Chengdao. Ji Chengdao was naturally talented and had a high vision. None of the indigenous people of the Divine Court Realm could catch his eye. He and Xin Yue were almost going gray-haired because of this. This young palace master had good cultivation, appearance, and character, and he was very satisfied with him.

"Why did you hit me?" Ji Chengdao felt puzzled. His ignorant and stupid look made Ji Haoyue furious.

"You hurt me during the competition, can't I hit you a couple of times to vent my anger?" Ji Haoyue said unhappily.

"Didn't you ask me to show my real ability? Besides, wasn't I injured by you?"

"Does a father need a reason to beat his son?"

"You can't be unreasonable!"

"I'm not being reasonable!"

Ji Chengdao was hit again and hid behind Ji Hongjing with a wronged look on his face.

Ji Hongjing smiled and said, "You haven't figured it out yet. Your father wants to have a grandson. Do you understand?"

Ji Chengdao was stunned, then his ears turned slightly red and he turned his head to look behind him.

"There's a show!"

Everyone's lips curled up and they went to look through the classics, leaving Ji Chengdao standing there in a daze.

"Mr. Ji, what ancient books do you want to find? I have read most of the scriptures in the Sutra Library and can help you find it."

The fragrance of the young girl filled his nose, and Ji Chengdao's ears turned even redder. He stammered, "I... I want to find some scriptures about yin and yang. Thank you, Young Palace Master!"

"Please come with me!"

The two figures walked away together. Ji Hongjing smiled and shook his head. Princess Yueling came to his side and sighed, "Little Enlightenment is almost here, but we still don't have a child. The same is true for Sister Wan'er. What's the problem?"

"It's my problem. The paths I follow are quite diverse. They seem flourishing, but they are actually unsystematic, which leads to difficulty in having children. But I have some ideas. This time I will go to the Heavenly Palace to find some scriptures to comprehend, and the problem will be solved soon." Ji Hongjing comforted.

"Well, be careful and keep safety as the top priority. We have no idea what is going on in heaven."

Ji Hongjing said confidently: "Don't worry, although Patriarch Xukong and I may not be able to defeat the Immortal King, if we want to escape with everyone, the Immortal King cannot catch us." Princess Yueling nodded and quietly accompanied him to read the book. This is an ancient immortal method that can be cultivated to the late stage of True Immortal. It focuses on the comprehension of the Tao and is very useful to Ji Hongjing.

With the shared memory of 180,000 bodies and spirits, he quickly memorized all the scriptures in one book, and then picked up another one. In ten days, before the talent selection ceremony was over, he had memorized all the books on the sixth, seventh and eighth floors of the Sutra Library.

The last floor of the Sutra Library contains classics at the level of Immortal Kings. The spacious attic contains only three things: a leather map, a broken stone tablet, and a broken golden spear.

The map marked the locations of the fairyland fragments around the Qionghua Realm. There were thousands of them, large and small. Ji Hongjing observed carefully and found that the location of the Shenting Realm should have been drawn on it before, but it had been erased recently.

"Is the Palace Master of Qionghua intentionally helping to conceal it?" Ji Hongjing did not think that the affairs of the Divine Court Realm could be hidden from the Immortal King. Moreover, where Emperor Huang Tian and the Heavenly Court came from was no secret to the Immortal King. The Immortal King Qionghua's spiritual consciousness had been to the Divine Court Realm and had left behind a guiding talisman, so it was normal that he could guess their origins.

He is not afraid no matter what the Lord of Qionghua Palace plans to do. After reaching the Great Perfection of True Immortal, the strength of his soul will not be inferior to that of the Immortal King.

After noting down the map, he looked at the broken stone tablet, which was engraved with scriptures, all of which were "Taoist words". There was a note next to the stone tablet, which should have been left by the master of Qionghua Palace.

"Taishi Immortal King Scripture!"

Ji Hongjing's heart moved. Could this be the scripture left behind by the Immortal King of the Immortal Realm who was killed by Emperor Huang Tian?

The scripture was incomplete, but every word was profound and full of deep meaning, expounding the Great Dao of Tai Shi. He was fascinated by it, and the Great Dao of Tai Shi in his body recited the scripture, evolving the meaning of the scripture.

Tai Shi, one of the five innate Tais, is regarded as a stage in the chain of cosmic creation, after Tai Yi and Tai Chu, and before Tai Su.

This stage marks the separation of yin and yang, the transformation of things, that is, the beginning of the formation of matter and form.

Tai Shi represents a state of being tangible but without substance, that is, it exists in form but has no fixed quality or form. It embodies the process from nothing to something, the state of universe formation of "something coming from nothing".

Ji Hongjing initially realized the Way of Taishi after comprehending the scriptures of Yuanshi Tianzun in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths. After entering the Immortal Realm, he practiced the Way of Da Daozun with the Way of Taishi. From then on, the three virtual bodies of the Three Pure Ones were all transformed into entities. However, his perception was always shallow, and was far inferior to that of the Immortal King Taishi.

The incomplete Tai Shi Xian Wang Sutra is of immeasurable value to him. By absorbing its essence, he will be able to take one step further.

It would be difficult to comprehend all the scriptures before going to heaven, so he could only write them down first and comprehend them slowly later. However, the Immortal King's "Words of Tao" were profound and unfathomable. Without the help of 180,000 gods, it would be difficult for him to do it in a short period of time.

After writing down the scripture, he looked at the last treasure here, which was a broken golden spear with blood-stained tip that flashed with eerie light.

"This is... a weird clan?!"

Ji Hongjing felt a familiar breath on the blood, which was very similar to the breath of the dark immortal who confronted the two great emperors Fuxi and Nuwa, but even more powerful. The golden broken spear wiped out the strange substance in the black blood, but it was still creepy.

"This broken spear contains a magical technique of the Immortal King!"

The "energy" of the broken spear is extremely astonishing, as if it could pierce through all the heavens and the worlds. Its owner must be extremely powerful. The "momentum" of the spear has remained undiminished for millions of years, performing the stunning and earth-shattering stabbing that its owner once stabbed.

"The spear is broken. I wonder if its owner is still alive?"

Ji Hongjing sighed, most likely he was gone, that battle was too brutal, even the Immortal King giant would fall.

He sat cross-legged in front of the broken spear, feeling the "momentum", and did not stand up for a long time. It was not until the talent selection ceremony was over and the Lord of Qionghua Palace came to him that he suddenly opened his eyes and thrust out with his right hand like a spear.

"boom"

The spear shot out like a dragon, piercing through the void and obliterating time. If the Lord of Qionghua Palace had not activated the formation, this strike would have been enough to destroy the Sutra Library and pierce through the Qionghua Realm.

"Congratulations to you for realizing the supreme magic, but this place of mine was almost destroyed by you." The Lord of Qionghua Palace smiled and did not blame anyone.

"Sorry, I was too obsessed with understanding the Broken Spear!" Ji Hongjing apologized sincerely.

The Palace Master of Qionghua Palace shook his head and said, "Forget it, it's not your fault. This senior fought to the death to kill a Dark Immortal King, and his unyielding will lives on. It's normal for you to be infected. Let's go, the talent selection is complete, it's time to go to the Heavenly Palace."
