The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 239 Edict
"My Heavenly Dao authority has actually been reduced to the fifth level!"

Li Yan had a strange look on his face. Although he had vaguely sensed some changes before, he didn't pay much attention to it.

Ever since he stepped into the path of law, his attitude towards the authority of the true world and heaven has become very different.

It's fine to use it to assist in doing things, but when you really need to fight with all your strength, you still need to use the laws you have comprehended.

But when he wanted to use the authority of Heaven to take over Changsheng Lingjun and some powerful human beings, he found that his own authority of Heaven had fallen to the ninth level.

From what he felt, the authority he now possessed was only equivalent to that of someone who had entered the fifth level of spiritual path.

This is usually the level that practitioners who have just entered the realm of Spiritual Lord and Ancient Emperor can reach.

As a Taoist monarch, the fifth-level authority is not enough for him.

"It seems that my killing of Emperor Chiyuan has caused a backlash from the real world!"

Li Yan seemed to be thinking about something.

The Emperor of the True World travels through the heavens and works for the True World, so he is deeply blessed by the True World.

He used his own strength to kill the Great Emperor Chiyuan, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with the punishment from the Heavenly Dao of the True Realm.

"But the decline in the level of Heavenly Dao authority has almost no impact on me. As long as I can borrow the power of the real world on a daily basis, it is enough."

Li Yan felt very calm.

The authority of the Heavenly Dao fell to the ninth level. This was definitely extremely terrible bad news for an ordinary emperor.

Although there has never been a case of an emperor's authority falling below the ninth level.

But according to speculation, once the emperor's authority falls to the ninth level, it means that he is not invincible.

If it is besieged by several quasi-emperors or ancient emperors, it will pose a threat to it.

The reason why the Emperor of the True Realm is so powerful, in addition to his own realm, is the powerful might bestowed by the ninth-level authority.

But for Li Yan, this situation does not exist.

He has already embarked on his own path, and his own strength alone is no less than the power of authority bestowed by the real world.

Therefore, even if he took back that powerful authority at this moment, his strength would not be weakened in the slightest.

And after this incident, he understood it even more clearly.

Only the power that you can control truly belongs to you.

The authority of the true world and the way of heaven is originally an external thing.

Therefore, even if I fall to the ninth level, it’s not a big deal.

The laws that he has comprehended are the real power that belongs to him.

"I entered the Taixu Imperial Realm, and in addition to learning the truth about the disappearance of the human race's Daojun, I also obtained the inheritance they left behind."

"These inheritances can help the Dao Lords of the human race leave the real world and go to other worlds. They can use these inheritances to quickly improve the level of their laws."

"It's a pity that the inherited laws and secrets here are of no use to me."

Li Yan sighed slightly in his heart.

The inheritance left by the Taoist Lord of the human race can help practitioners at the Taoist Lord level to comprehend the laws more easily.

These laws and secrets are of various kinds, including the Law of Void, the Law of Space, the Law of Thunder, the Law of the Five Elements, etc.

But Li Yan has the spiritual thought of harmony with the Tao. Even if he does not practice these laws and secrets, he can comprehend the laws more easily than the human Dao monarchs who practice the laws and secrets.

Therefore, these laws and secret techniques have almost no effect on him.

These secret laws were originally left behind by the ancient human Taoist priests, who wanted new Taoist priests to quickly embark on the path of laws after entering the Taoist realm.

But they obviously would not have thought that there would be an outlier like Li Yan.

The two times of merging with the Dao make the progress on the path of laws faster than practicing the secret methods of laws.

Now he has entered the middle stage of the ninth level, and it won’t be long before he will have the opportunity to advance to the tenth level.

Li Yan calmed his mind and mobilized the power of his own laws to open up a space channel directly in the core area of Zhenji Continent.

Then step right into it.

Not long after, he stepped out from the other end of the space channel.

"Welcome the great emperor back in triumph, kill the true god emperor, and avenge our race!"

A group of powerful human beings had been waiting at the end of the space channel. When they saw Li Yan stepping out, their eyes were full of excitement.

Although they did not see what happened later.

But they saw with their own eyes in the Heavenly Dao Space that Li Yan killed Emperor Chiyuan in Zhenji Continent, avenged the human race, and slaughtered the entire True God Clan.

Completely erase the humiliation of the human race being forced to migrate to the Ancient Imperial Continent.

Li Yan faced these human warriors, his eyes moved slightly, and he nodded gently.

"Now that Zhenjizhou has returned to the control of our human race, we need someone to go to Zhenjizhou and assess the various ethnic groups in Zhenjizhou. Those who are willing to belong to our human race can continue to stay in Zhenjizhou after the assessment."

"Those who are unwilling to belong to our human race will be ordered to leave Zhenji Continent within a certain period of time."

"I am willing to go and assess the True Extreme Continent tribe on behalf of the Great Emperor."

The Immortal Lord spoke first, his expression normal.

As the only spiritual king of the human race, he should step forward in this matter.

However, with Li Yan's current reputation, no other ethnic group would dare to challenge the human race.

He only needs to separate a part of his spiritual thoughts into an incarnation.

It doesn’t even affect his attempt to break through to the eighth level spiritual path.

Now, Li Yan of the human race has killed Emperor Chiyuan and destroyed the True God clan, and his luck is at its peak.

If you try to break into the eighth-level spiritual path now, you will surely succeed.

"I am also willing to follow you, Lord Ling!"

The eyes of some newly promoted True Lords were burning. Some of them had even grown up hearing stories about Li Yan and naturally had great respect for Li Yan.

Seeing that they can now help, they naturally signed up enthusiastically.

Li Yan readily agreed to this.

There are still disaster-stricken humans in Zhenjizhou who need to be resettled, and the extra manpower can also be used in this regard.

In the end, only a few of the old True Lords were left guarding the Ancient Emperor Continent.

After the matter was finalized, Li Yan found Zhao Changsheng privately and gave him the treasures of the True God Clan that he had collected in the core area of Zhenji Continent. He kept only a part of them for emergency use and handed the rest to Changsheng Lingjun.

Although he is the only Taoist master in the human race, he has always been concentrating on practicing.

Most of the human affairs are handled by Zhao Changsheng.

Therefore, these treasures that can enhance the overall strength of the human race are naturally most suitable to be handed over to Zhao Changsheng.

“There are so many!”

When Zhao Changsheng saw the many treasures that Li Yan took out, he was surprised and his eyes were full of shock.

The 70% of treasures that Li Yan had previously obtained from the Zhenhou tribe had already made the resources for human cultivation no longer scarce.

However, 70% of the treasures of the True Qiong Clan are completely insignificant compared to those of the True God Clan.

When Li Yan saw him for the first time, he was a little surprised, let alone Zhao Changsheng.

But if you think about it carefully, it's normal.

After all, the Zhenji Continent occupied by the True God Clan is the ancestral land of the human race.

Considering how powerful the human race was back then, how could the continent they occupied be ordinary?

The number of spiritual materials and treasures produced is incomparable to that of ordinary places.

Unfortunately, it was precisely because of this that Emperor Chiyuan became greedy, which brought disaster upon himself.

Now the human race is only supported by Li Yan, so Li Yan is also very cautious about this. He is worried that if he is forced to leave the human race for some reason, the situation of the human race may not be optimistic.

"I don't know who the great enemy of the human race is..."

The thought flashed through Li Yan's mind.

In order to prevent the human race in the Real Realm from having any further contact with the great enemy, the Dao Lords did not leave any information about the great enemy, including his name.

So even Li Yan didn’t know who the emperor was.

But it’s better this way, he can practice with peace of mind.

When you have accomplished self-cultivation, you can then pursue the truth without any worries.

Li Yan led a group of human warriors through the space channel and returned to Zhenji Continent.

Then he shouted to the ethnic groups living on Zhenji Continent and explained the situation to them.

Then, in a flash, all the tribes in Zhenji Continent began to discuss the matter.

Cloud Crane tribe.

They were once a subordinate race of the True Gods and obeyed the orders of the True Gods.

There are many ancient emperors in the clan, and even a peak ancient emperor is in charge.

now.

A discussion took place within the Cloud Crane tribe.

"Ancestor, now that the True God Clan has perished, my Yunhe Clan can finally be free from restraints and live freely in the True World. This opportunity must not be missed!"

Many members of the Yunhe tribe were excited.

They had been restricted by the True God clan for a long time, so they were naturally excited when the True God clan was destroyed.

Now that they know that the human race has no plans to continue to accept them as a subordinate race, they are very excited.

After all, not every race desires the protection of a powerful group.

The strength of the Yunhe Clan is already quite strong in the real world.

Even without the protection of the top tribe, they can live well in the real world.

"This True Words Emperor is truly a kind person, he is willing to let us go free!"

An ancient emperor of the Yunhe tribe praised Li Yan.

They originally didn't want to join the human race and become a subordinate race of the human race.

They were just worried that Li Yan would force them to become a subordinate race of the human race, so they were quite concerned.

But now that he had received Li Yan's imperial edict, his original worries were dispelled.

The old ancestor of the Yunhe clan who was at the peak of the Ancient Emperor realm also spoke slowly: "When the Great Emperor Zhenyan wiped out the remnants of the True God Clan, he did not harm our clan at all. Naturally, he is a kind person."

Other members of the Cloud Crane Clan also echoed: "That's right, the True God Clan was exterminated by the True Words Emperor because of their eternal hatred with the human race."

"But the Great Emperor Zhenyan is definitely not a cruel person! This can be seen from the edict he just issued. If it were someone else, how could he let us go so easily?"

The Yunhe tribe members were full of praise for Li Yan.

But at this moment.

A young man from the Yunhe tribe at the edge of the hall couldn't help but say, "Ancestor, since the Great Emperor Zhenyan is so kind, why don't we continue to stay in Zhenji Continent?"

"No, our Yunhe tribe has finally got this opportunity to no longer be controlled by others, we must not let it go!"

"But even if we continue to stay in Zhenjizhou, we don't necessarily have to become a subsidiary race of the human race!"

Upon hearing this, the Yunhe tribe members immediately showed surprise on their faces and listened with great interest.

Zhenjizhou is a treasure land.

Although their Yunhe tribe is not in the core area of Zhenjizhou, they still need to supply most of their resources to the Zhenshen tribe, and have left behind a lot of assets.

If there really is a way to stay in Zhenji Continent and not be restricted by the human race, that would be great.

The young man from the Yunhe clan was delighted when he saw all the strong men looking at him.

Many of those present were core strongmen of the Yunhe clan. If he could be valued by these strong men, then he would naturally have a bright future.

So he coughed lightly and continued, "My fellow elders, I think our Yunhe tribe doesn't need to worry about the decree of the True Word Emperor at all, and can continue to live in the True Extreme Continent."

An elder of the Yunhe tribe heard this and his eyes flashed with anger. He couldn't help but scolded, "Nonsense! If the emperor asks us questions, how should we respond?"

"If the Great Emperor comes, we will say that this is the ancestral land of our Yunhe clan. We have lived here for more than 100,000 years, so this area should belong to our Yunhe clan."

"The great emperor is merciful, why would he bother with us?"

Hearing the plan mentioned by this young man from the Yunhe clan.

For a moment, all the members of the Yunhe tribe fell silent.

The hall was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop; the only sound that could be heard was the breathing of the Yunhe tribe members.

All the members of the Yunhe tribe looked at the young man with complicated expressions.

Seeing this, the younger generation of the Yunhe tribe thought that it was their plan that shocked the tribe members, so they continued proudly: "And I heard that among the human race, besides the Emperor Zhenyan, there is only one strong man in the ancient emperor realm."

"If it really doesn't work, we can also pretend to join the human race and wait until the situation becomes clear. The emperor has gone into seclusion. How can the human race restrict us like the true gods?"

Having said that, he felt that his plan was perfect.

Even if Emperor Zhenyan is really stingy and doesn't want the Yunhe tribe to continue living in Zhenji Continent, he has a backup plan to deal with it.

The ancient powerful emperors of the Yunhe clan in the hall took a deep breath, apparently shocked by the plan of the young Yunhe clan.

"Whose offspring is this?"

An ancient emperor pointed at the younger generation of the Yunhe tribe and asked the tribesmen in the hall.

Those who can be in the hall at this moment are the core figures of the Yunhe clan.

This young man is only at the level of Demon King, but he is able to enter the hall, which means that his father should be a king of the Yunhe clan and should be in the hall.

But when the ancient emperor's voice came out, no one in the hall dared to respond.

There was only an old king, with a look of grief on his face, who raised a trembling hand.

At this moment, the young man from the Yunhe tribe had already excitedly walked up to his father and said, "Reporting to the elder, this is my father He Han, and my name is He Hong!"

Upon hearing this, the members of the Yunhe tribe first looked at He Han with sympathy.

Then he looked at He Hong with an extremely surprised and strange look.

They never imagined that there would be such a shocking person in the Yunhe clan.

We can only say that it is fortunate that he was discovered in time, otherwise if he had really infiltrated the high-level ranks of the Yunhe Clan, it would probably be the end of the Yunhe Clan.

They disobeyed the Great Emperor's order and even attempted to bully their host by taking advantage of their power and becoming an enemy of the human race.

It was not long ago that Emperor Zhenyan exterminated the entire True God clan and displayed his ferocious power.

He Hong actually dared to come up with such an idea. Did he really think that the Yunhe tribe was not dying fast enough?

"He Han failed to discipline his children strictly, so he must face the wall for a hundred years as a punishment!"

"He Hong has offended the Great Emperor. From today on, he will be expelled from the Yunhe Clan!"

"He Han's command!"

He Han looked several years older again and bowed in reply.

He Hong looked shocked and said hurriedly, "Elder, are you wrong? I have devoted my heart and soul to the Yunhe tribe, how could you treat me like this?"

"That was definitely wrong."

The ancient emperor thought for a moment, nodded, and then continued: "If I expel you from the Yunhe tribe, I am afraid you will cause trouble in the name of the Yunhe tribe. From today on, you will be imprisoned forever until you die!"
