The Golden Crow Burns the Sky

Chapter 61: On the Emperor of Heaven, Going to the Divine Realm
Lingbao Tianzun, the supreme ancient Tianzun who attained enlightenment during the mythological years, the lord of the Four Swords of Zhu Xian, the founder of the secret of combining characters, was known as the greatest killer in ancient times. He met with a calamity due to the changes in his immortality millions of years ago, and sat in meditation between heaven and earth.

Now, with Xuan Hui's help, he has returned from the brink of death, wielding the Immortal Execution Sword Formation with outstanding grace and has reproduced some of his former divine power.

At this moment, Lingbao Tianzun stood alone in the void. Behind him, the Zhuxian Formation Diagram and four killing swords were rotating, making him look like a true immortal descending to the world. His whole body exuded a sense of sharpness.

Looking at Xuan Hui in front of him, the ancient celestial master smiled and spoke. His voice was not very deep, just like that of a young man. It even sounded a bit youthful, which was completely inconsistent with the vicissitudes in his eyes.

"I am Lingbao, a poor Taoist. I am honored to meet you, Taoist Tiandi."

As he spoke, Lingbao Tianzun made a Taoist gesture with his hands and bowed slightly to Xuanhui.

Obviously, Lingbao Tianzun, in conjunction with the Zhuxian Sword Formation, already knew the identity of Xuanhui in front of him.

This bow was also Lingbao Tianzun's way of thanking Xuanhui, the contemporary Heavenly Emperor - without Xuanhui's help, he would have really been lost in the eternal silence and would have no hope of returning.

This is the grace of saving one's life, and naturally it is worthy of the ancient celestial master's bowing to it.

Xuan Hui was quite calm and accepted the gift directly.

What he did was indeed worthy of Lingbao Tianzun's praise. As a fellow Heavenly Emperor, Xuan Hui felt that he did not need to be too humble.

That’s right, the moment Lingbao Tianzun returned, Xuanhui saw the true state of this ancient Tianzun.

Even if it is just the return of its true spirit, it is still a weak empty shell, relying on the Zhuxian Sword Formation to support itself, but its life level has already established itself in the realm of the Heavenly Emperor, and it can knock on the door of immortality!
Of course, the so-called life levels based on the realm of the Heavenly Emperor are Xuan Hui’s own method of division.

In Xuanhui's eyes, an emperor can only be called the "Emperor of Heaven" if he finds his own path to becoming an immortal and begins to transform at the level of his life.

The rest of them have astonishing fighting power, and those who are called Heavenly Emperors by people in the world are merely comparable to Heavenly Emperors, and cannot truly deserve this title.

Even Xuan Hui himself, before he comprehended the Heavenly Heart Seal and completed his transformation, could not be considered a true Heavenly Emperor.

But at this moment, he is worthy of such a title.

Generally speaking, if one does not walk out of his own unique path like Xuanhui, then only the Ancient Emperor who has at least lived out the third life on his own can reach this level at the last moment of his life and be called the Emperor of Heaven.

There are not many such powerful people in the entire ancient history, and there is no doubt that Lingbao Tianzun in front of him is one of them.

However, it is not known whether Lingbao Tianzun had already reached this state during his lifetime, or whether he had this breakthrough during the process of evolving all spirits into immortals and ultimately moving towards nirvana.

But no matter what, Lingbao Tianzun, who has reached this point, is worthy of his reputation passed down from generation to generation. Even among the nine great Tianzuns, he is one of the few who can rank among the top.

Thinking of this, Xuan Hui also smiled and responded to Lingbao Tianzun.

"Congratulations on your return, my friend. From now on, your path to immortality will be smooth."

"When you rebuild your body, I will discuss the way of immortality with you. I hope you will not refuse."

Upon hearing this, Lingbao Tianzun also stood up and laughed.

"How dare I refuse the invitation of the Heavenly Emperor?"

As he said this, at this moment, Lingbao Tianzun was also secretly surprised in his heart. This lifesaver in front of him was truly extraordinary!

Judging from the feedback he got from the Zhu Xian Sword Formation, this Heavenly Emperor was only achieving enlightenment for the first time, but he had already achieved such great achievements!
It should be noted that the former Lingbao Tianzun lived a hard life for three lifetimes, refined the Nine-Transformation Immortal Pill, and forged the four most powerful Zhuxian Swords, before he finally acquired the combat power of the Heavenly Emperor and touched the door to becoming an immortal.

However, even so, he still did not live long enough. Because the third generation of Lingbao Tianzun spent too much effort on the Zhuxian Sword Formation, but ultimately could not use it to kill his way into the fairyland, he could only choose to turn back at the last moment, and hastily evolved the spirits of heaven and earth, trying to prove a way to become an immortal in the world.

In the end, Lingbao Tianzun failed and almost died forever. Fortunately, with the help of Xuanhui millions of years later, he was able to come back.

And it was in this process that Lingbao Tianzun truly elevated his life level and established himself on the path to becoming an immortal in the mortal world.

Now, the achievement that he had accomplished after three lifetimes and millions of years of accumulation was achieved by others in just a few thousand years. This undoubtedly made Lingbao Tianzun a little depressed.

However, Lingbao Tianzun has his own broad mind and will not be limited by his emotions. The next moment, he felt that this might not be a bad thing.

Throughout the ages, it has always been difficult for those who have achieved perfect enlightenment to meet each other. The most precious thing for them at this level is to have fellow practitioners with whom they can communicate.

Now, with such a Heavenly Emperor in front of them and the gratitude of saving their lives between them, they are naturally the most suitable fellow Taoists. They can stroll together on the immortal road, which is much better than groping in the past alone.

Seeing Lingbao Tianzun's statement, Xuanhui felt even more relieved. This ancient Tianzun was an absolutely ruthless man among the nine Tianzuns. Now that he has returned, even if he does not become an immortal in the mortal world, he is directly aiming to become the Taoist Quasi-Immortal Emperor. He is also an unparalleled genius with the potential to become an Immortal King.

Xuan Hui has never been a lone wolf type of person, and he also hopes to have a few people who share the same aspirations with him. It’s just that none of his contemporaries could keep up with him.

And now, Lingbao Tianzun is a very good choice.

For a while, the day was respected and the day was emperor, the two of them had a very pleasant conversation, and they got along very well from the first meeting.

After the two talked for a while, Xuan Hui made the suggestion.

"Fellow Daoist Lingbao, this place is the world you transformed with your physical body in the past, and it is now called the Divine Realm."

"In the Divine Realm, there is an ancient tree of life, which is quite beneficial to Daoist friend's current condition."

"How about you come with me and use the immortality elixir to stabilize your foundation?"

Xuan Hui said this because he saw that Lingbao Tianzun was not in a very good condition after his return and thought that he needed some external help.

Hearing this, Lingbao Tianzun nodded and agreed readily.

Just as Xuan Hui had judged before, Lingbao Tianzun had just been resurrected and was still an empty shell. He relied entirely on the power of the Four Swords of Zhuxian to maintain the stability of his true spirit. The situation was not very good.

Moreover, although Lingbao Tianzun's realm and life level have been improved during these millions of years, he still needs a long period of hard practice to rebuild his physical body and gather the power of the Emperor of Heaven again.

The ancient tree of life is one of the few treasures that can be of help to Lingbao Tianzun.

Therefore, Tianzun was still very interested in Xuanhui's proposal.

Seeing that Lingbao Tianzun agreed, Xuanhui said no more. The next moment, both of them took a step forward and headed towards the sacred mountain in the divine realm.

　As for Lingbao Tianzun, my setting is probably more suppressed than that in some fan fictions. After all, in some settings, Lingbao Tianzun lived for four or five lifetimes and was very powerful. But in my case, due to the needs of the plot, except for a few people clearly described in the original work, all other Tianzuns and ancient emperors will not be too strong. For relatively outstanding supreme beings like the Nine Heavenly Lords and the Demon Emperor Taiyin, I will definitely distinguish them from ordinary emperors in description, but they will not be particularly strengthened. Regarding this point, friends who have questions can discuss it in a friendly manner, but there is no need to worry too much. Just treat these viewpoints as fan fiction settings that do not seriously deviate from the original settings.

　　In addition, regarding the Emperor of Heaven, in this book I used a concept that is more in line with my personal point of view, which is relatively strict. Then I used the Emperor of Heaven as a half-realm division. The expression in the book is that this is the protagonist’s own point of view, and it is also specifically written about.

　　The essence of this view lies in whether one has embarked on one's own path to becoming an immortal, rather than simply one's combat power and achievements. It is equivalent to qualifying as a Heavenly Emperor and raising the protagonist's status. However, this is just one person's opinion and is only used in my own book. Don't take it too seriously.
