A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 647 Li Xiang: Ha, this ███ fate!
A series of curses, imbued with immense magical power, echoed near the Xuanpu Divine Mountain.

Countless “laws” and “paths” trembled with terror due to the faintly flickering imperial light within them, creating layers of ripples within the net of laws of heaven and earth.

However, under the influence of the Xuanpu Divine Mountain, which sits at the highest point of the road, the terrifying tremors of these "Dao" and "Dharma", the violent waves of the Heaven and Earth Law Network, and even all sorts of inexplicable connections were all suppressed and could not spread within a radius of ten thousand meters.

Seven days and seven nights later, Li Xiang, who was standing a few steps away from the mountain monument, calmed down.

He looked at the stone path that had appeared at his feet without him noticing, and stepped onto it expressionlessly. He walked along this special path until he reached the core of this magnificent sacred mountain, where he saw his Uncle Xuanhuang, whom he had not seen for a long time.

Li Xiang slightly raised his eyelids, without uttering a word, as if the Holy Spirit owed him countless merits, and gave an extremely perfunctory bow to the emperor in front of him.

Xiong Mo smiled as he looked at his junior disciple who was bowing to him, not caring about his extremely perfunctory attitude. After all, he had been working day and night for nearly ten million years, so it was normal for him to have some resentment.

It's good to vent now; it will be beneficial for the work ahead.

Xiong Mo's smile grew even brighter. With a wave of his hand, he conjured a stone chair behind Li Xiang, imbued with the aura of the "Central Earth Element" path, resembling an imperial throne. With another wave, a stone table and several kinds of supreme-level immortal fruits were cut into fruit platters, along with a cup of supreme immortal tea containing a faint sense of tranquility and purity, and placed in front of him.

Xiong Mo pointed to the stone chair behind Li Xiang and said with a smile, "Nephew Jiemie, please sit down and have something to eat. There's no need to be polite with your uncle here."

Li Xiang sneered, showing no politeness whatsoever. She sat down on the stone chair that resembled an emperor's throne, picked up a supreme immortal fruit, took a few big bites, then picked up a teacup, gulped down the tea, and began to refine it with the brilliant light of a quasi-immortal emperor within her body.

Looking at the emperor in front of her, Li Xiang said in a muffled voice, "My most 'respected' martial uncle, if there's anything your nephew needs to do, please tell me."

Xiong Mo did not speak immediately. Instead, he reached out and sculpted another stone chair, sat down, brewed a cup of supreme-grade goji berry tea, and slowly sipped it.

Once the medicinal effects in Li Xiang's body had been largely digested and the light of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor within him had intensified slightly, He slowly spoke, "Indeed, there is something that requires Junior Nephew Ji Mie's help, but this matter is not urgent. On the contrary, Junior Nephew's current cultivation level is the most pressing matter."

Upon hearing this, Li Xiang picked up her teacup, preparing to take a few more big gulps of the immortal tea, but paused slightly, and her expression became a little solemn.

He could protest or play games with his senior uncle about other matters, but his own cultivation level was related to his future path, and he had to be serious about it before reaching the highest point.

Li Xiang took a few deep breaths, drank a sip of immortal tea to calm herself, and asked, "I wonder what advice Martial Uncle has for my cultivation and my progress in the Sixth Secret Realm?"

Xiong Mo's eyes were half-closed, as if his gaze had pierced through countless years to reach the forefront of the long river of time, where he saw the three Dark Immortal Emperors outside the barrier of the [Spirit Realm]. "I wouldn't call it a suggestion, but I just want to personally confirm the specific time when my nephew will combine the Sixth Secret Realm with the human microcosm to break through to the King and become an Emperor."

“My nephew Jiemie has part of Lingbao’s lineage, the great fortune of Dongxuan Sect, and the final tribulation essence of the [Zhuxian Sword Formation]. After his cultivation and Daoist practice have reached this level, even with my current cultivation and Daoist practice, it is inevitable that my observation of when my nephew will break through to the King and become an Emperor will be somewhat vague.”

Li Xiang closed his eyes and began to deduce the next step based on his current cultivation progress.

After a long while, he opened his eyes, looked at Xiong Mo, and said, "After eating my master's immortal fruit and immortal tea, it will take about eight million years, or at the latest twelve million years, for me to perfectly integrate the sixth secret realm with my own human microcosm, break through the King realm to become an Emperor, and attain the realm of Quasi-Immortal Emperor."

"Of course, breaking through to the next realm now is not impossible. Immediately breaking through to the King realm and becoming an Emperor realm, and attaining the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, is also not out of the question."

"However, the success rate of breaking through to the realm in this way is only 70%. Moreover, the sixth secret realm is too brutal to combine with the human microcosm, which will inevitably cause Dao injury. After becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, although it will not affect combat power, unless one has other insights, one will need to spend up to 20 million years in quiet recuperation to stabilize the realm before one can make further progress in cultivation."

Xiong Mo nodded slightly. This was similar to the result He had seen from the future, and the deviation was not too serious.

He tapped the stone table, manifesting three hazy, dark imperial figures. Pointing at these eerie and ominous creatures, He said, “After breaking through to the next realm in eight million years, the barrier supported by the Spirit Realm will inevitably develop some weaknesses under the constant, desperate attacks of these three Dark Immortal Emperors. Once the dark matter at the end of the path overflows from the Spirit Realm, as a newly promoted Quasi-Immortal Emperor, you will find it difficult to withstand it.”

"If we force a breakthrough now, the barrier supported by the [Spirit Realm] can stop the three Dark Immortal Emperors from their desperate attacks. However, the intensity of their attacks will increase dramatically, and the method of 'self-destruction' at the end of the path, pulling the opponent into eternal annihilation, may become commonplace."

"The mythical Heavenly Emperor who guards the Heavenly Court will be forever silenced within fifteen million years, while the Immortal Emperor Array, constructed by the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and numerous Immortal Emperor artifacts, and the barrier supported by the Spirit Realm, will be completely shattered in about twenty million years."

"This is the future I foresee: after you successfully break through to become an emperor in all the heavens and myriad realms and prove yourself as the supreme Dao Ancestor of the 'Secret Realm Method,' you will inevitably undergo a collapse."

Xiong Mo's true form in the "Covering the Sky World" is Xuanhuang Tianzun. He opened up the "Secret Realm Method" branch, proved himself to be the Supreme Dao Ancestor, and transformed into a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. This already caused the strange side to become restless and send out a dark army. Later, four Dark Immortal Emperors came out together, determined to make a great sacrifice to all the heavens and myriad worlds.

If Li Xiang were to break through again, allowing them to see another person who had opened up a branch of the "Secret Realm Method," attained the status of an unparalleled Dao Ancestor, and was on the verge of becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, it's hard to say whether some strange ancestors might be stimulated and risk being eternally silenced by the Desolate Heaven Emperor in order to forcefully break through the [Spirit Realm] barrier and allow the dark army to advance into the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

Even if the Strange Ancestor is tightly entangled by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor and the Pollen Road Sacrifice Dao, unable to spare any attention or make a move, the three Dark Immortal Emperors outside the barrier will definitely go mad. They will no longer care about the possible price to pay and will maintain a life-or-death approach at all times. Even if they fall into eternal silence one after another, they will no longer be able to raise any fear in them.

Xiong Mo counted on his fingers again and again, and now, there is only one and a half Immortal Emperors in all the heavens and myriad realms.

The Emperor, this mythical Heavenly Emperor who is doomed sooner or later, possesses the combat power of a Celestial Emperor. He hasn't yet re-cultivated the Celestial Emperor Dao Fruit; his only remaining strength, his corpse representing the essence of all living beings, is that of a half-Celestial Emperor. As for Meng Tianzheng, the Great Elder Meng, who is on the path of reincarnation, this half-step Celestial Emperor only has a few brief moments of extreme sublimation to offer any assistance; he doesn't even qualify as a half-Celestial Emperor.

It's unrealistic to expect to go toe-to-toe with the combined power of two and a half Dark Immortal Emperors who are completely reckless and willing to risk their lives, with only the strength of one and a half Immortal Emperors.

Don't be fooled by Xiong Mo's current ability to use various schemes and tactics to hold back two Dark Immortal Emperors, suppress one, and cripple half of them at the forefront of the River of Time. If the High Priest, Si Wu, were to completely disregard his own life and drag the Emperor's avatar into eternal oblivion, it would be extremely difficult for Him to suppress the High Priest in a short time and then free up His hands to deal with the remaining one and a half Dark Immortal Emperors.

After all, they had fought so many times over the years, and they were basically familiar with each other's methods. They were confident in their abilities, and it wasn't just his Emperor Avatar who had made significant progress in combat power. Although his progress was more remarkable compared to the others, he could effectively block the three Dark Immortal Emperors outside the barrier through multiple calculations and plans.

Currently, the myriad realms can maintain a relatively stable state because both sides share a consensus: the barrier blocking the dark army will be broken sooner or later.

With the addition of a "Secret Realm Technique" Dao Ancestor who has the potential to become an Immortal Emperor, even if it is unclear when this quasi-Immortal Emperor will be able to step into the End of the Road Domain, the significance is completely different. With an additional "Secret Realm Technique" Immortal Emperor guarding the area, the barrier may no longer be able to be broken by the three Dark Immortal Emperors, and the plan to invade all the heavens and myriad worlds will most likely fail.

Therefore, the limit that the strange side can accept is probably that Zhu Qing, who is "self-imprisoned" in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, unable to support the Emperor, and is not the one who opened up the "Secret Realm Method" branch, and currently seems completely unable to become the supreme Dao Ancestor who can become the Immortal Emperor.

This was the conclusion Xiong Mo reached after probing.

Li Xiang fell into deep thought; he understood what his martial uncle meant.

He cannot break through to become an emperor and attain the supreme Dao ancestor. Once he becomes a quasi-immortal emperor, it will be the moment of great calamity or the beginning of the countdown to great calamity.

To be more precise, he could not break the king's throne at the forefront of the long river of time and provoke the sensitive nerves of the strange side.

Li Xiang looked up, expressionless, at the emperor before her. "So, this is why my uncle summoned me to this past era?"

"This era is incredibly special. It prevents these Dark Immortal Emperors from detecting my transformation from King to Emperor. It can even buy me a long period of cultivation time without any causal interference, allowing me to calmly complete my cultivation at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level?"

Xiong Mo nodded, but then slowly shook his head. This attitude of affirmation and denial left Li Xiang feeling very confused.

Xiong Mo picked up the wolfberry tea, took a sip, leaned back in the stone chair, and explained lazily, "My special era is called the 'Probability Era' because the underlying rules and logic of this era are extremely chaotic. Things below the level of the road end can be said to be illusions and delusions, like a dream bubble."

"Given its peculiar 'chaotic' nature, it exists entirely between 'existence' and 'non-existence,' and how long it can last, and how many more years it can continue to exist in the future, are all unknown."

Li Xiang's expression changed again. He had thought that this era might be extremely dangerous, but he never thought that such danger would actually come from the special rules and logic of the era itself.

According to my uncle, once this probability era comes to an end, everything except the highest point of the road will turn into an illusion and cease to exist.

Wouldn't it be wrong for him to break through in this era? He is not a being of the Probability Era, and his essence is not "chaos." He will not turn into an illusion at the end of the Probability Era.

Therefore, this should be a period of "hidden" extra years of cultivation?
Before Li Xiang could continue pondering, Xiong Mo had already placed the immortal teacup on the stone table and continued to explain, "Because of the 'unknown' that arises from this 'chaos,' the cause and effect of this era are close to non-existent, and destiny is even more difficult to manifest, 'allowing' the birth of some 'miracles' that are not in 'normal'."

"It is 'reasonable' and 'normal' for you to rise from king to emperor during this period of time. You will not attract the attention of any terrifying beings because of the 'Secret Realm Law'."

"As for whether the existence of the Probability Era can buy you a long time to cultivate, allowing you to calmly complete the cultivation at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, and attain the highest level of the path, transforming into the 'Secret Realm Technique' Immortal Emperor, I don't know either."

"However, in these 'past' years, you were ultimately able to safely break through to the next realm and attain the supreme Dao Ancestor who mastered the 'Secret Realm Technique'."

Xiong Mo's explanation gave Li Xiang a general idea of ​​the current situation of the myriad worlds, and also confirmed some of his earlier guesses and deductions.

Li Xiang brewed another cup of immortal tea, took another big gulp, and looked at the emperor in front of her, saying, "So, what is the matter that Uncle-Master wants me to do? Simply explaining the current situation of the myriad realms to your junior nephew is not something a 'busy person' like you would have the 'leisure' to do."

Xiong Mo smiled and snapped his fingers.

In an instant, the underlying rules and logic of the core area of ​​Xuanpu Divine Mountain were rearranged and recombined. The "Tao" and "Law" at the forefront of the long river of time were projected out and superimposed on the "chaotic" essence of the probability era, so that the two were perfectly integrated, like two sides of the same coin.

A few breaths later, the place where the road leads to the highest level of enlightenment, the Daoist temple of the "Central Yellow Emperor," was transformed into a "heaven and earth" that was very suitable for practitioners of the "Secret Realm Method" to break through to the level of King and become Emperor. The light of creation, which was of the level of billions of Quasi-Immortal Emperors, slowly descended.

"Once you break through the King realm and become an Emperor, and prove yourself to be the Supreme Dao Ancestor, and transform into a Quasi-Immortal Emperor of the 'Secret Realm Method,' you will naturally understand."

Li Xiang glanced around at the core of Xuanpu Divine Mountain, then stared at her uncle, whose figure had vanished like a dream. All expression vanished from her face, leaving her completely expressionless.

After becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, one will naturally understand?

This is probably not a task that can be undertaken without a quasi-Immortal Emperor. No wonder he said there was no rush and even spoke very "kindly" about his own cultivation level.

In short, the skill level of the "tool" character is lagging behind and needs to be upgraded.

Ah, this ███ fate!
