A journey of survival starting from Zhetian

Chapter 693 The Fighting Saint Emperor
After collecting the remains of his fellow cultivators and burying them in the royal tomb reserved by the Qilin Emperor of the ancient primordial star, the Battle Emperor returned to the Mythical Battlefield.

His expression was somewhat solemn as he murmured to himself, "Having fought against bizarre creatures in my dreams for millions of years, and conquered countless different bubble worlds in turn, I should now be able to truly cultivate the scripture engraved in my bloodline with the 'Dao' and 'Dharma' I have practiced and the combat power I possess."

The Battle Emperor sat cross-legged on the mythical battlefield, his hands forming hand seals. Using the laws of the Probability Era, he gathered strands of faith power that were approaching, refined them into golden divine faith power, and integrated them into the Heavenly Heart Mark on the Immortal Platform. This allowed the Immortal King Foundation to forcibly gather what could be described as an endless stream of immortal laws according to his own will.

As the divine power within him continued to circulate, it drove one immortal law after another into his body. Like scattered stars, hazy starlight began to shine throughout his body, illuminating one potential gate after another and resonating strongly with them.

"Come!"

The Battle Emperor roared loudly, no longer using divine power to maneuver, but directly causing the forcibly gathered immortal laws to rush down like a waterfall, constantly impacting his Dao body. This caused countless lofty Dao law chains to rise silently, opening all the potential gates within his body, intertwining them into a terrifying array that spanned the secret universe within his body.

A terrifying roar resounded within his body, and terrifying cracks appeared on his skin. Hot, golden blood slowly seeped out, spreading out in a grotesque manner. Even the wisp of light from a quasi-Immortal Emperor that he had borrowed could only maintain the most basic suppressive effect, preventing him from perishing under the almost endless onslaught of immortal laws.

As the Daoist chains became increasingly intense and numerous, a familiar sense of impending death quietly appeared deep within the Fighting Emperor's mind, causing him to instinctively calm down, maximize his spirituality, and approach the myriad Daos of Heaven and Earth, expanding his limits bit by bit.

This is the familiarity of experiencing one or even multiple life-or-death crises when conquering billions of different bubble worlds.

Until a certain limit was broken, sentences resembling scriptures that had existed since time immemorial manifested from within the bloodline of the Fighting Emperor, converging all the "gates" within his body, opening up an extremely special perspective, directly gazing upon his own essence, the foundation of all paths, the cornerstone of existence.

Within this fundamental essence, what was cultivated and learned in the "dream" now has a foothold, and under the irrigation of the almost endless immortal laws of the world, it has generated a wisp of dark yellow root of heaven and earth.

Suddenly, aided by the supreme fortune within his body, more scriptures emerged. Within this incredibly solid foundation of heaven and earth, countless three-dimensional runes spontaneously combined to form a scroll of Dharma that leads to the end of the path of cultivation.

It seems that once cultivated, one can rely on the Dao body to be indestructible and immortal, and even if all paths are emptied and time turns to ruins, one will remain unharmed.

The Eight-Nine Mysterious Techniques

Under the inexhaustible power of the immortal laws, even a true immortal could not fathom it, the Fighting Emperor finally saw the complete chapter of the scripture engraved within his bloodline and personally comprehended that incomparably special true meaning that infinitely approached the "Dao".

"The Eight-Nine Mysterious Technique means that after achieving eight or nine times the skill, the remaining number is infinite because the 'Tao' is inherently infinite, and so is this method."

"This is a method close to the 'Tao'!"

The Battle Emperor was shocked. After briefly reading through the complete text of this scripture, he understood why none of his fathers had succeeded in cultivating it, and why so many Great Perfection Saints had to first attain immortality before trying to cultivate this method again.

"Its contents are too vast, almost expounding all the heavens and myriad worlds, as if it has revealed everything. It allows these 'laws' and 'principles' to be integrated into oneself, proving 'immortality through countless eons.' It is almost impossible for human beings to truly enter the path. Forcibly stimulating it will only result in injuries all over the body, loss of self, and dissolution of existence."

Recalling the words of his elders, the Battle Emperor sighed with a sense of shared sentiment, "This path truly leads to the heavens. If the Heavenly Emperor and the Emperor Venerable were the creators of this scripture, achieving the Dao Fruit of 'Battle Immortal' would be nothing more than going with the flow."

"If one truly attains the level of mastery, then no matter how many 'laws,' 'principles,' or 'paths' exist in the world, they will all become the resources for one's eternal and indestructible attainment."

"When the infinite 'Tao' gathers in one's body, there will be no more 'disasters' or 'calamities' in the world, and none can harm those who have mastered this method."

"Immortality is not a metaphor, but a true statement."

The Battle Emperor turned this Dao technique to the realm of humanity, comprehending it word by word, his eyes shining with extraordinary golden light.

He understood some of it, the true meaning of extracting the mysteries of heaven and earth and transforming them into his own infinite creation.

The Fighting Emperor raised his head and looked up at the sky, muttering to himself, "Seeking immortality is one result, but to achieve this result, one needs to seize all the myriad creations that exist in the darkness of heaven and earth, and transform these things that are normally unusable into a single thread of mystery leading to the end of one's cultivation path."

"This is the Intercept of Heaven."

The Fighting Emperor's eyes were slightly dazed, as if a series of hazy reflections rose in them, reflecting everything in the world. He subconsciously channeled a fragment of the Heavenly Truth he had just comprehended to his fingertips and gently stroked it towards the sky.

With a crisp sound, a Daoist chain shattered, breaking into countless fragments that became nourishment for the Daoist body, strengthening the Heaven and Earth Root that had been born within, and ensuring it would no longer be affected by this immortal Daoist law in the future.

In reality, this immortal law between heaven and earth has not disappeared, nor has this immortal law, which has transformed into the Dao Law Divine Chain, broken in any way. It's just that it has become ineffective against the Fighting Emperor and can no longer play any role in binding or restricting him.

"drink!"

Having fully understood the situation, the Battle Emperor immediately summoned his Immortal Iron Cudgel, swung it towards the sky, and roared loudly.

Terrifying shattering sounds rang out one after another as all the laws of the Dao shattered one after another, transforming into the resources of the wisp of the root of heaven and earth within his body, which became the creation that led to his current ascension from the imperial Dao to the immortal Dao.

When the myriad paths reflected in the eyes shattered completely, the illusion entered reality. A terrifying aura rose within the mythical battlefield, and one after another, terrifying spacetime rifts materialized, and one after another, voids of law manifested in the world.

The universe trembled, literally trembled, and countless beings who had come into contact with the sacred laws could feel the tearing apart of the myriad paths of the universe, their eyes filled with terror.

"Why is the universe trembling?!"

"Since the age of mythology, countless beings have carved out chaos on the edge of the universe, creating life-bearing star fields. As a result, the universe has grown countless times larger. Even if powerful immortals fight each other in this world, such a terrifying tremor should not occur!"

An elderly Great Sage, who was presiding over the Holy Land and preparing for Nirvana and rebirth to break through to the Quasi-Emperor realm, sensed the dissipation of heaven and earth one after another. He immediately rushed to the library and kept flipping through the ancient books within the Holy Land. His expression was panicked, and he had already lost his voice in alarm.

"Has a cataclysmic disaster struck the universe?!"

"Are we going to die? This shouldn't be. The Spirit Realm hasn't sent any information, and the Heavenly Secrets haven't shown any fluctuations."

"It's too late. Even if we wanted to use the teleportation array to travel to the edge of the universe and enter the chaos, it would be completely impossible. The microscopic structure of spacetime has been distorted and cannot be activated." One by one, the cultivators who had never touched the path of sainthood and saw the terrified expressions of the saints gradually sensed the tremors in the laws of heaven and earth. Their faces turned pale, and they wanted to find a way to survive. However, everything indicated that, with their own strength, they would find it extremely difficult to even try to leave their own life star.

Those who had attained the Quasi-Emperor level of cultivation, those who possessed the ultimate cultivation level, and the human beings in the forbidden zone who were undergoing transformation all turned their attention to the Mythical Battlefield.

With their own cultivation, they could vaguely sense that the changes in the universe and starry sky originated from this place.

"I remember Fellow Daoist Douzhan has entered the Mythical Battlefield again. Was this upheaval, which has affected the entire universe, caused by him? What is he trying to do?!"

"I heard from elders at the Immortal King level that Fellow Daoist Douzhan has already absorbed the last wisp of supreme fortune of this era. Perhaps this is an attempt, like the past Qilin Emperor and the current Qilin Quasi-Immortal Emperor, to prove his own immortal Dao fruit."

"Fellow Daoist Douzhan is merely a prodigy born ten thousand years ago. He seized the Heavenly Heart before even living a full life, which is already astonishing enough. Now he wants to attain the Dao Fruit of Immortality. How is that possible? It's too fast!"

All the quasi-emperors and emperors focused their gazes on the direction of the mythical battlefield, trying to find even the slightest trace. However, with tens of thousands of king-level formations covering the area, they were simply unable to find any trace with their current strength and cultivation.

However, there are ultimately living beings who can see it.

Within the Spirit Realm, over three thousand Celestial Kings have already descended with a wisp of their consciousness.

The four supreme beings—the Buddha of Nirvana, the Dao Ancestor of Cloud Cauldron, the Dao Ancestor of Golden Peak, and the Heavenly Venerable of Candle Dragon—descended a wisp of consciousness at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, using their authority to pierce through all concealment.

The scene of heaven and earth collapsing within the mythical battlefield, and the Battle Emperor's act of using his long staff to sever the laws of heaven and earth, were fully presented to the eyes of many powerful immortals.

Yun Ding Dao Ancestor looked surprised and whispered in the small circle of quasi-Immortal Emperors, "As expected of an emperor who has won a wisp of supreme fortune, the Immortal Dao Fruit is within reach, and even the 'Sixth Secret Realm' has already shown a glimmer of hope and is rapidly being perfected."

"Once one attains the Dao Fruit of Immortal Path, one may immediately step into the King Realm, attain the Dao Fruit of Immortal King, and enter the deepest part of the King Realm."

Jin Feng Dao Ancestor nodded slightly, quite agreeing with Yun Ding Dao Ancestor's opinion. At the same time, he looked at the Nirvana Future Buddha beside him, "Besides the fact that this future fellow Daoist's talent is indeed outstanding, fellow Daoist Nirvana's method should not be underestimated. 'Enlightenment in a Dream', to be enlightened in a dream and so amazing, can be said to be unparalleled in the world."

The Buddha of Nirvana clasped his hands together and remained silent.

"Enlightenment in a Dream" can only project the consciousness of the Fighting Emperor into the Probability Era. It also requires the original body, the Annihilation Heavenly Venerable, to possess the power of a half-step Immortal Emperor and to step into the End of the Road in a state of extreme sublimation to guide the way. The time spent there is even less than 100,000 years.

His original plan was to use this method to allow this future fellow Daoist to travel through the chaotic ocean in the form of "entering a dream," to see tens of thousands of methods that could be cultivated to the level of a quasi-Immortal Emperor, and thus gain sufficient experience in cultivating "Dao" and "Dharma".

He couldn't possibly be unaware of what this method of enlightenment was like, or what the original intention was.
This was clearly intercepted by the Central Yellow Emperor himself!

Even within the realm of the End of the Road, this level of cultivation is terrifyingly powerful, possibly approaching the divine power awaiting sublimation at the end of the road. He unleashed a move called "Great Dream of Eternity," directly pulling the consciousness of the fellow Daoist into the Probability Era.

While stabilizing the "Sect Realm Method", he also cultivated the "Ordination Method". After experiencing countless life-and-death trials, he stepped onto the boundless battlefield, fighting his way up from a human being to the pinnacle of the King Realm, and even facing the Supreme Dao Ancestor.

This is a process of fighting strange creatures while alive, and being resurrected after death, almost blurring the line between life and death, forging an unparalleled will through sheer hardship.

Such a terrifying "dream" washes away all fatigue and leaves behind all gains after "waking up," how could progress not be rapid?

The moment after attaining the Dao Fruit of Immortality, this fellow Daoist in Battle will immediately attain the Supreme Dao Ancestor, and he will not be surprised in the slightest.

Zhulong Tianzun narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the silent appearance of the Nirvana Future Buddha, and also sensed some "unspeakable" reason. The thoughtful look in his eyes deepened.

At the same time, he said, "In this era, the three supreme fortunes have already appeared. The current location of Fellow Daoist Divine Silkworm is unknown. He has taken the initiative to conceal himself, perhaps he is trying to break through to the King and become an Emperor. Fellow Daoist Fighting Battle has also shown a hint of becoming a supreme Dao Ancestor and is stepping into the Dao Fruit of Immortal Dao."

Zhulong Tianzun's gaze fell slightly on the Emperor, who remained silent among the kings, and he said subtly, "It seems that the Emperor, who was the first to obtain a wisp of supreme fortune, is unable to keep up with the pace and has not yet shown any sign of creating his own 'Sixth Secret Realm'."

"His strength has reached the level of a supreme giant in the 'Sixth Secret Realm - Xuanhuang Outer Heaven' through his occasional rebirth. If he really wants to become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, he is already very close."

Looking at the slightly curious gazes of several fellow Daoists, the Buddha of Nirvana chanted a Buddhist mantra. The light of cause and effect and destiny flickered slightly in his eyes as he flipped through the "script" of the Mythical Heavenly Emperor.

He said softly, "No need to worry, everything is the best arrangement. None of the three fellow Daoists who will become Supreme Dao Ancestors in the future will be missing."

"Now, all we need to do is wait for the time that 'fate' has set for us to arrive."

The gaze of the future Buddha of Nirvana never left the battlefield of mythology.

That shadow of a staff that intercepts the laws of heaven and earth has become increasingly clear.

Until a certain moment, all the paths of the universe shattered, and the astonishing battle power transformed into the radiance of immortality, causing the starry sky to tremble violently.

He achieved the Dao Fruit of Battle Immortal.

In the vast universe, many beings paled and murmured softly:

"Battle Saint Emperor"
