The Lord of Thunder

Chapter 1377 Planting the Great Dao Tree and Pollen Tree

Given the strength of the Second Mysterious Plateau, it doesn't actually need the World Tree.

Because this second eerie plateau is destined to be even more powerful than the Sacrifice Path in the future.

While it doesn't reach the level of beings above the sacrificial path, it's definitely not something an ordinary World Tree could withstand.

Therefore, although the body of the Great Emperor Wushi has now transformed into the World Tree, it will inevitably separate from this second eerie plateau in the future after his resurrection.

To be restored to the state of the Great Emperor Wushi, or to become nourishment for the strange plateau.

The Great Dao Tree that Ye Fan seized was also successfully transplanted to the Second Strange Plateau.

These trees, which have grown on the eerie plateau for many years, are not afraid of the erosion of eerie substances. As the world tree of this second eerie plateau, they can actually accelerate the growth of the second eerie plateau in its early stages.

Once the Second Strange Plateau has grown strong enough, it will no longer need the Great Dao Tree as the World Tree.

At this time, even the Mysterious Immortal Emperor and the Mysterious Ancestor often comprehended and cultivated under this Great Dao Tree, which shows the power of this tree.

This tree, its Great Dao Laws, even surpass the realm of sacrificial Dao.

However, it is extremely difficult for a powerful sacrificial cultivator to become a being above the sacrificial path.

This ancient tree, in this second eerie plateau, exudes an incomparably vigorous life force.

What are elixirs of immortality and eternal life? They are nothing in front of this great tree.

The pollen tree ancestor was also generously contributed by the Pollen Queen and transplanted to this second eerie plateau.

The alluring fragrance emanating from the darkness was so enticing that even powerful Daoist practitioners felt refreshed and gained something from it.

"Pollen Empress Senior!"

The seed clone of the Thunder Emperor spoke politely to the pollen tree.

This pollen tree gave birth to a powerful figure like the Pollen Empress, who is now essentially an avatar of the Pollen Empress.

The seed clone of the Thunder Emperor was created by comprehending the Great Dao of the Pollen Empress.

When facing this pollen tree, the Thunder Emperor's seed clone felt an unusual sense of familiarity.

Upon hearing the greeting from the Thunder Emperor's seed clone, the pollen tree emitted a benevolent wave, which then enveloped the Thunder Emperor's seed clone.

The leaves rustled and shook, releasing countless pollen grains that fell upon the Thunder Emperor's seed clone, giving him a sense of enlightenment.

It was a long time before the Thunder Emperor regained consciousness.

With a thought, Lei Di's primordial spirit emerged from the corpse of the Great Emperor Wushi, radiating a dazzling light.

"Is this a fragment of the indestructible true spirit of the Great Emperor Wushi?"

The pollen tree sensed this familiar aura and quickly recognized it as the aura of the Great Emperor Wushi.

The subtle fluctuations emanating from it were extremely peculiar, belonging exclusively to the Great Emperor Wushi.

The Thunder Emperor nodded.

The pollen tree carefully observed the flame, which looked like a ball of light or a ball of fire burning.

It is composed of countless densely packed Dao runes.

Among them is the unwavering will and undying obsession of the Great Emperor Wushi.

"It truly is the immortal spirit of the Great Emperor Wushi, but it's a pity that only such a small amount remains."

The pollen tree has survived countless eras, enduring numerous destructions and rebirths, making it a truly knowledgeable and experienced species.

Although she had never seen a case like the Great Emperor Wushi, she had seen similar cases in history.

"I thought Emperor Wushi was completely dead, but I didn't expect that he still has a glimmer of hope for resurrection."

"I thought that Emperor Wushi had the potential to become a sacrificial emperor, and that he might stand shoulder to shoulder with Emperor Huangtian and Empress Huafen in the future."

"I never imagined that I would be corrupted by the strange progenitor while still at the Immortal Emperor realm."

"Although he took the opportunity to break through to the Sacrifice Dao realm, he ultimately could not escape the erosion of the strange substance and unexpectedly died in battle on the strange plateau."

The pollen tree thought of this and said with emotion.

Emperor Wushi once sought the Great Dao from Empress Huafen, and indeed his research on Huafen Road was very profound.

Otherwise, his body wouldn't have transformed into a dark seed and grown into a World Tree.

Throughout history, the pollen tree has witnessed countless extraordinary talents, but countless of these talents failed to grow up and perished.

She once placed high hopes on Emperor Wushi, and she also placed high hopes on Ye Fan and the Ruthless Empress.

And so, the reign of Emperor Wushi came to an end.

The corpse transformed into the World Tree.

While preserving just this wisp of true spiritual light offers a sliver of hope for revival, the chances are ultimately slim.

The pollen tree leaves rustled and swayed, countless sparkling pollen grains falling onto the ball of fire.

Unfortunately, the flames only grew slightly larger before returning to their original size.

It seems the pollen has little effect on it.

Using the pollen, the pollen tree took the opportunity to carefully observe this undying flame of true spirit, hoping to uncover its secrets.

The Thunder Emperor's seed clone had exhausted all means, but it was unable to make this undying true spirit fire burn even more fiercely or powerfully.

The pollen tree was also trying to figure out if it could help revive the Great Emperor Wushi.

Pollen of various colors emerged from the pollen tree, but ultimately no miracle occurred.

"What a pity, my strength is not enough to revive the Great Emperor Wushi."

"With the Great Dao Tree joining forces and the Lotus of Myriad Tribulations Reincarnation, we might be able to make this primordial spirit fire stronger, but whether it can actually revive him is really hard to say."

After hearing what the pollen tree said, the Thunder Emperor realized that this aloof Great Dao Tree had also secretly helped the Great Emperor Wushi.

However, the True Spirit Fire of the Great Emperor Wushi was far too weak, and the Great Dao Tree was helpless against it.

Lei Di couldn't help but take a closer look at the somewhat aloof Great Dao Tree. It had clearly developed consciousness long ago, yet it remained silent.

When Ye Fan brought him out, he did not resist and let Ye Fan dig him out and bring him out.

It seems that he considers himself a VIP wherever he goes, and everyone treats him with great respect.

Lei Di cupped his hands in greeting to the Great Dao Tree, but the Great Dao Tree remained unresponsive, as if it had fallen into a deep sleep.

“You don’t need to worry about him. He’s always been aloof and indifferent. He doesn’t pay attention to anyone except that supreme being,” the pollen tree said.

"Now that the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation has been reborn as the Lotus Empress, its true form must be just like me now, having become independent again."

“If you find him, we can join forces and perhaps there is a chance to awaken the Great Emperor Wushi,” the pollen tree said.

"Senior, the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation is currently on the path of reincarnation in Kunlun Mountain."

"In that place of reincarnation."

"This matter concerns the arrangements of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor. If we are to place the Lotus of Myriad Tribulations Reincarnation on this second strange plateau, we must first discuss it with the Desolate Heavenly Emperor."

The Lotus Empress has now quietly upgraded to a Celestial Emperor.

She has already reached the Immortal Emperor realm ahead of Ye Qingxian and Xiao Tian.

The Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation is now considered a sacred object of the same level as the Great Dao Tree and the Pollen Tree.

Although his combat strength is not that strong, in terms of understanding the Great Dao, especially the Great Dao of Reincarnation, he is absolutely unmatched.

The Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation, planted by the beings on the sacrificial path, has undergone countless transformations throughout countless eras, evolving to an unbelievable degree.

Apart from pollen trees and avenue trees, there really are no plants that can compare with it.

This kind of thing is useful even for powerful individuals at the Sacrifice Dao realm.

Just like pollen trees and great tree trees are also useful to powerful cultivators.

The Great Dao Tree allows powerful cultivators to comprehend the Dao.

Pollen trees can allow powerful sacrificial beings to be reborn as seeds.

As for the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation?

"This legendary lotus, which has endured through the ages, contains the supreme truth of the Great Dao and may be able to help the Great Emperor Wushi achieve Nirvana and rebirth."

After discussing it, Pollen Tree and Thunder Emperor felt that this matter had great potential.

The Cycle of Reincarnation, opened up by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, is where countless beings reincarnate.

The Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation, drawing upon countless Great Daos there, is now nourishing that cycle of reincarnation.

Meng Tianzheng used the Myriad Tribulations Reincarnation Lotus to advance far beyond the Immortal Emperor realm, eventually becoming an Immortal Emperor at the level of a Great Tyrannosaurus.

The Thunder Emperor's seed clone quickly contacted the Desolate Heaven Emperor, the Pollen Empress, Ye Fan, and others. After some discussion, they quickly agreed to the plan to transplant the Myriad Tribulations Reincarnation Lotus.

Even destroying the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation would be worthwhile if it could awaken the Great Emperor Wushi. Of course, as long as the Lotus Empress lives, the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation will never die.

Even if the Lotus Empress dies, the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation might be able to bring her back.

The pollen tree emitted countless pollen grains, some of which contained its most primordial life force, wrapping the spark of primordial spirit fire layer upon layer.

The pollen tree generously used its life force to nourish the immortal true spirit of the Great Emperor Wushi.

Although she didn't know if it would work, she was willing to give it a try.

The Thunder Emperor's seed clone tore through the void, took a step, and arrived at the Path of Reincarnation in the blink of an eye.

The sky here is still dark, and the blood-red earth still stretches as far as the eye can see.

From the distant divine city came the creaking sound of a millstone turning, along with strange and powerful fluctuations.

Looking at this cold, dark frozen land, the Thunder Emperor thought, "It truly is a place of reincarnation and rebirth."

The supreme laws of the Great Dao here suppress all living beings; this is a place to guide the souls of the dead.

A powerful figure like the Thunder Emperor would naturally not be suppressed or affected by anything here.

He soon arrived at the hellish divine city, and to his surprise, he saw an acquaintance there.

The Void Emperor and the Eternal Universe Emperor.

That's right, their path to immortality in the mortal world is just like Duan De's, following the path of nine reincarnations and the unification of the seal.

Their original path was not the path of reincarnation, but after nine lifetimes of reincarnation, their original path underwent a strange transformation and merged with this path of reincarnation.

Now, Emperor Hengyu and Emperor Xukong have become peak Immortal Kings, but they are still unable to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

After receiving guidance from the Underworld Lord Duan De, they finally realized the problem.

Therefore, they came to this place of reincarnation and rebirth, where they guarded this divine city and also comprehended the Great Dao of Reincarnation.

As powerful beings at the peak of the Immortal King realm, they can easily suppress the souls of demons and monsters here.

They watched as the Thunder Emperor appeared silently, extremely tense and on high alert.

They were relieved when they saw that it was the Thunder Emperor.

They were able to successfully navigate the path of reincarnation, become powerful immortals in the mortal world, and eventually rise to the peak of the Immortal King realm, all thanks to the Thunder Emperor's generous teachings of the immortal arts.

Therefore, upon seeing the seed avatar of the Thunder Emperor, they immediately stood up and bowed respectfully.

Although the entrance to this place of reincarnation is in Kunlun Mountain, it does not actually belong to the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

He was personally created by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, a place of reincarnation independent of the rest of the world.

If by chance, beings from other worlds may be reborn into this world during their cycle of reincarnation.

Although the probability is very small, it is not impossible.

Some of these are strange creatures that may accidentally arrive in this world after they die.

This monster, laden with serious pollutants, is precisely what the Void Emperor and the Eternal Emperor are so fiercely guarding against.

After so many years of sacrificial battles, the entire spacetime has become somewhat disordered, and more and more strange creatures are falling into the purgatory of this world, which is a big problem.

Therefore, with powerful figures like Emperor Hengyu and Emperor Xukong stationed there to conduct initial screening and protection, it becomes much safer.

Furthermore, there's Elder Meng Tianzheng, a Celestial Emperor of the Tyrannosaurus Rex level, who is more than capable of suppressing everything.

As for the powerful figures who practice sacrificial rituals, it's impossible for them to reincarnate here; they have long since transcended the concept of reincarnation.

Emperor Hengyu and Emperor Xukong were both very surprised to see the seed avatar of Emperor Lei.

When the Thunder Emperor saw these two people, he was also deeply moved.

"I never imagined that after so many years, you would have become a peak Immortal King."

"I never expected you to be comprehending the Dao of Reincarnation and Rebirth here. It seems you are not far from breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm."

The Void Emperor said, "Thank you, Thunder Emperor, for teaching us, the Immortals of the Mortal World, the cultivation method. If it weren't for that, we wouldn't have had the opportunity to become Immortals of the Mortal World and Immortal Kings."

"Yes, now that the Thunder Emperor has become a powerful figure in the Dao of Sacrifice, he is truly a role model for us cultivators..." said Emperor Hengyu.

The fact that Emperor Hengyu and Emperor Xukong were able to obtain permission from Emperor Huangtian to cultivate here clearly shows that Emperor Huangtian had high hopes for them.

With a little nurturing, he could become a quasi-Immortal Emperor.

If he accumulates enough knowledge and experience in the future, he may also have the potential to become a Celestial Emperor.

The Thunder Emperor's seed clone, seeing that these two people had indeed become extraordinary after multiple transformations, nodded in satisfaction.

This is a great place to contemplate the Dao of Reincarnation.

Being able to undergo a strange transformation and sublimation along with their original Great Dao is an opportunity to enter the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

Now, after years of accumulation, they have indeed earned the qualifications to challenge the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

After some conversation, the Thunder Emperor and the two arrived at the center of this divine city.

He looked at the enormous millstone.

The millstone looked ancient and weathered, yet it exuded an extremely mysterious aura.

Clearly, this millstone was carved by the hands of that supreme being, and though it has endured countless ages, it remains eternal and immortal.

I wonder how the Desolate Emperor found this thing back then.

Countless corpses appeared from the void and fell into the millstone, instantly turning into countless showers of light.

The Thunder Emperor had seen these things a very, very long time ago.

Therefore, he was not shocked by any of this; on the contrary, he found it quite ordinary.

After giving instructions to Emperor Hengyu and Emperor Xukong, he went directly through the millstone to find Meng Tianzheng.

Countless rays of light shone, and the supreme laws of the Great Dao pressed down.

However, these things were useless to the Thunder Emperor and could not have any effect on him at all.

After careful observation, the Thunder Emperor discovered that the millstone was more sacred and powerful than before.

It seems that when the Desolate Emperor returned back then, he refined it again.

Crunch.

No matter how sacred and powerful a physical body may be, it will be immediately decomposed upon arrival here.

The Thunder Emperor watched the millstone turn, the mysterious runes shimmer, and the supreme millstone inscriptions, which were actually unique divine runes created by that supreme being himself.

The supreme cycle of reincarnation contained within this millstone is indeed somewhat incredible.

Ordinary quasi-immortal emperors would probably not be able to withstand the pressure in this millstone and would be turned into ashes.

As for Immortal Emperor level experts, they would probably be seriously injured if they came here.

After all, this place was personally refined by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor. Who could withstand even one of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor's hands?
At the very least, it would require a powerful expert in sacrificial arts.

Unless you're a so-called "destined person" who can easily pass through here, no one else should think about passing through easily.

When the Thunder Emperor came here, he naturally had to inform Meng Tianzheng in advance and take away the Lotus of Eternal Reincarnation.

Along the way, the Thunder Emperor retraced the path of reincarnation and rebirth, gaining profound insights.

The Way of Reincarnation is indeed profound and unfathomable. Although he had traveled far on the Path of Thunder, he had also glimpsed the mysteries of the Path of Reincarnation through analogy.

In the future, if this thunder and the Great Dao of Reincarnation are combined, perhaps the Thunder Emperor's seed avatar will be able to go even further.

He came here on a serious business, so he imprinted the runes of the Great Dao of Reincarnation that he had comprehended along the way into his heart, intending to study them carefully and slowly.

He saw countless hazy, indistinct souls walking along the road.

Some of them were unruly and even considered attacking the Thunder Emperor's seed clone.

Lei Di observed carefully and found that Meng Tianzheng was indeed implementing the reincarnation plan. Some peerless geniuses had indeed accumulated increasingly profound foundations of the Great Dao after reincarnating multiple times on this path of reincarnation.

No wonder that during the Holy Ruins era, relying on the reincarnation decree to be reborn and cultivate had become a very popular way of cultivation.

It turns out it really works.

One can imagine the immense foundation of the Great Dao that these extraordinary geniuses would accumulate after multiple reincarnations.

The Thunder Emperor can fly here; he doesn't need to walk slowly.

He soon met Meng Tianzheng there and talked about the transplantation plan of the Eternal Reincarnation Lotus and the Second Strange Plateau.

As the executor of the Desolate Emperor's Reincarnation Path Plan, Meng Tianzheng is qualified to know more.

He never entered the battlefield to participate in the war, and always guarded the rear.

Although his contributions may seem small, he actually did very important work. It's just that his achievements are not widely known, and not many people know that he guards the path of reincarnation.
