We agreed to go to Taishan Sect and you will pull the coffin for me.

Chapter 236 Li Er

Lu Heng and Qing Niu set off, crossing the starry sky towards the ancient star Gou Chen.

At this moment, Lu Heng felt very comfortable. Although Di Que had left, he met the Bull God King again. He had Lao Zi, a quasi-emperor at the peak of his power, standing behind him. The hardness of this thigh was among the best among those who controlled the sky, and the spiritual power of the Emperor's corpse was second only to Gai Jiuyou.

“If Laozi were here, I could ask him for help to refine the Soaring Snake Supreme Weapon into the black gourd.”

Lu Heng thought to himself that when he passed by the Bull Demon Ancestral Star, these grumpy old guys greeted him in a friendly manner.

He also learned the origin of the two from Qingniu.

In the past, Qingniu was the peerless pride of the Bull Demon Clan, but he took the initiative to follow Laozi and became Laozi's mount, which almost caused a riot in the clan. They mistakenly believed that this "evil Taoist" had bewitched Qingniu with some secret method. Finally, Laozi stepped forward and took the initiative to resolve the feud, refined a diamond bracelet that was close to a quasi-imperial weapon, and gave it to the Bull Demon Clan.

Not long after, under the leadership of Qingniu, they quickly moved through the void and arrived at the ancient star Gouchen.

Lu Heng saw the legendary ancient man Li Er Laozi, an old Taoist priest with a fairy-like appearance, sitting cross-legged on a huge rock. He had white hair and a youthful face. He looked very old, but his face was ruddy and very healthy, and he exuded a simple and indifferent Taoist charm.

Learn from nature and follow the ways of heaven and earth.

"I've met Master."

Lu Heng was very respectful to him. He stepped forward and bowed, saying that this was a genuine master.

Laozi accepted this great gift calmly. Seeing Lu Heng seemed to have expected it, he nodded with a smile and said, "You have practiced very well and have your own way. I have nothing to teach you. If you have any doubts or difficulties, please."

Li Er had a very good eye. He could tell at a glance that Lu Heng had the potential to be an immortal, one of a kind in ancient and modern times. He had reached the pinnacle of Taoism and had not a single flaw.

The only pity he had was that this disciple was too powerful, and the inheritance of the Lord of Morality was just a reference for him, not the foundation.

However, Lu Heng's Tao integrates the creation of all heavens into one, with chaos on the surface and yin and yang, four symbols and five elements in it. To some extent, it is naturally consistent with the teachings of the Taoist Master Daode.

After hearing this, Lu Heng was not polite anymore. Since his master had come, he proposed to refine the Teng Snake Supreme Weapon into the black gourd.

"You really gave me a difficult problem."

Laozi laughed and said thoughtfully, "It's not impossible. My cultivation is limited, so I can only initially fuse the two. I can't say how much it will improve, but it won't become a hindrance. If you want to fully integrate it into the Immortal Slaying Gourd, you can only wait until you become the Empress."

Hearing this, Lu Heng breathed a sigh of relief. This was enough. There was a supreme weapon in the black gourd, and he couldn't sleep well at all. If the seal was broken and a sword flew out, his head would fall to the ground.

Li Er's cultivation has now reached the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor, and he has not yet achieved enlightenment and become the Supreme. Otherwise, he would not have hidden in the Emperor's formation during the first dark turmoil, but would have rushed out directly to fight the Emperor. He did not become the Supreme until the second dark turmoil, and faced the siege of the Dark Supreme, attempting to ascend to immortality by force.

Rumble!
Then Li Er took over the black gourd of beheading immortals, and the brilliant Taoist rules danced on his fingertips. One after another, the divine chains of laws intertwined to form a blazing Eight Trigrams alchemy furnace, which was imprinted in the void and seemed to be able to refine even the stars in the sky.

The black gourd floated up and down in the alchemy furnace, the Teng Snake device inside was shaking, the gods in the formation diagram and the killing sword were struggling and roaring, but they still couldn't escape from being completely melted.

The Teng Snake Formation diagram sank into the vast universe, the stars moved and the constellations changed, the Dao patterns spread, and occasionally formed a huge Teng Snake constellation. The two Teng Snake swords merged with a ray of immortal light and sword energy, and as the Supreme Immortal Sword appeared and disappeared, it could transform into three sword energies.

The Black Gourd Imperial Weapon God is high above, pushing the imperial laws contained in its body to fall down, covering the Teng Snake Device layer by layer, binding and enslaving it, doing whatever it wants.

A few days later, Li Er returned the black gourd and warned: "You must be careful when using it. Once the Immortal-Slaying Gourd is damaged, it will affect the stability of the imperial law, and this magic weapon will break free from the shackles and escape." Lu Heng happily put the black gourd in his arms, thinking that among the enemies he encountered, no one has the ability to destroy the imperial weapon.

Then he talked about the path to becoming an immortal and the Beidou Alliance, hoping that Laozi could join.

Hearing this, Li Er was very surprised and said with emotion: "You did a good job. The reason why I explored the ancient land was to make plans for the dark turmoil. At least with an imperial weapon and the cooperation of several old friends from my hometown, I can keep the ancient planet safe."

"But this approach is far inferior to yours."

Lu Heng said modestly: "It just happened to be the right time."

The most powerful beings in the universe have all sensed the dark turmoil and are actively making preparations.

Li Er naturally agreed to the alliance, and after things here were settled, he wanted to go to the location of Lingbao's bones.

Afterwards, Lu Heng found the true blood of the Underworld Emperor that he had snatched from Duan De and gave it to his master. He felt that considering the other party's state of being able to form the reincarnation seal through the spiritual power of the emperor's corpse, this thing might be of great use.

As expected, Li Er's body sensed something spontaneously, and the reincarnation seal in his body trembled, as if facing some natural enemy.

Laozi almost pulled out his beard, and said in shock: "The true blood of the Hades Emperor is actually this thing."

He remained silent. The source of the Emperor's Corpse Spiritual Lineage is the Lord of Hell. There is a Corpse Emperor in the Forbidden Zone of Life, and he became an emperor through the spiritualization of his corpse. In the original timeline, meeting Duan De was like a mouse seeing a cat. It would rather give up the foundation of its enlightenment, the Seal of Reincarnation, than have its life and death controlled by the Lord of Hell.

On the other hand, if any emperor's corpse can communicate with the spirit and obtain the true blood of the Underworld Emperor, it will be of great help.

Li Er sighed, "It's surprising that you can find such a thing. For someone like me who has a spirit body connected to an emperor, it would be very difficult to achieve a different way of enlightenment. I would be blocked by the rules of the emperor's way in my previous life. If I want to become an emperor, I must wash away my past and replace it with my own way."

“Now that I have the true blood of the Dark Emperor, perhaps I can consider retaining the imperial path from my previous life, merging the two into one, and attaining a more extraordinary path.”

To a certain extent, the state of the emperor's corpse as a psychic is like Ye Fan being entangled in several supreme principles of Taoism when he was a great sage, or like the ancient prince whose body contains the imperial principles of his father but is imprisoned by his bloodline. It is not easy to become an emperor.

Theoretically speaking, the alternative enlightenment of the law + the emperor's body in the previous life is not much weaker than the alternative enlightenment holy body, and can truly perish together with the emperor in his later years. Once he becomes an emperor, the emperor's body will be baptized for the second time, and he should also have the combat power of a quasi-emperor. In fact, this is not the case.

If Li Er chooses to wash away the imperial way of his previous life, then after he achieves enlightenment in another way, his body will return to being ordinary, and becoming the Supreme One is not as powerful as imagined. After achieving enlightenment and becoming an emperor, he cannot be considered one of the top emperors.

After all, no matter how much Li Er fits in with the Tao of the Lord of Dao and Morality, Li Er is still Li Er, and the Lord of Dao and Morality is still just the Lord of Dao and Morality. There is still a difference between them.

Duan De was different. In each life, he achieved enlightenment in a different way. After being buried, he was reborn with a blank slate. The Tao of his previous life did not interfere at all.

Eventually, the nine generations merged into one, directly forming the Nine-Star Hades Emperor, who became an immortal in the mortal world.

This is the path Li Er wanted to take.

"What a great relationship! Duan De is a treasure from head to toe, worthy of being an old man. A few drops of Hades Emperor's blood are not enough. I will squeeze it out some more some other day."

Lu Heng thought that there were also Shennong, Huangdi and others among the ancients.
