I am devoted to the Tao

Chapter 492 The Origin of the Emperor of Heaven

"Is this the Feathered Earth?"

When he arrived at Yuhuatu, the scene that came into his sight made Jiangchuan's eyes narrow slightly.

As the place where a peak Immortal Emperor once fell, most cultivators would consider it a dangerous place.

In Jiangchuan's eyes, the real Yuhuatu is more like a paradise than a desolate place.

The golden rice ears, carrying heavy rice grains, bend the rice stalks.

Taoist priests, waving sickles, harvested rice with smiles on their faces.

Taoist temples of various sizes are like twinkling stars, located on the mountains and land.

Many Taoists were either meditating to refine their qi, or collecting herbs to make elixirs, or harmonizing dragons and tigers. The rich aura of immortals permeated the world.

"Do you think it's incredible? Actually, I was also shocked when I came here for the first time. But these places don't really exist."

Tai Huang opened his huge mouth, and nine-colored fairy lights gushed out from his mouth.

As the spirit of the innate spiritual treasure, the Immortal Refining Pot, Tai Huang's strength is even greater than that of an ordinary Immortal Emperor. When he attacks with all his strength, the immortal lights he sends are enough to destroy and shatter, blasting through the universe.

But the strange thing is that these fairy lights disappeared out of thin air when they fell on the Taoist temples.

"Illusion? No, this doesn't feel like an illusion."

Jiang Chuan was very confident. At his level, even the immortal emperor who was famous throughout the ages would tremble in front of him. What kind of illusion could be hidden from him?
"It's not really an illusion. You should also know that the Emperor of Heaven is not from this world."

Tai Huang explained, "I've heard Daojun say this is the result of the Heavenly Emperor converging his own timeline, or perhaps a war with the Demon King. This can be said to be both real and fake, as it's not theoretically in this universe. It's only because the battle between the Heavenly Emperor and the Demon King spanned time and space that it connected, resulting in the scene we see today."

"Everything here can be said to be fake, or it can be said to be real. Over half of the spacetimes haven't been completely integrated with the Imperial Mausoleum, and can be considered two separate spacetimes. Without an overwhelming force to penetrate spacetime, we can pass through without any problems. Nearly half of the spacetimes have been completely integrated with the Imperial Mausoleum, and if we pass through them, we'll likely be considered intruders."

Rabbit's face was solemn. "Invaders? This is the timeline of the universe where the Emperor of Heaven once lived. Are we going to clash with the Emperor of Heaven in his youth?!"

"probably not."

Tai Huang shook his head: "At least I haven't heard of any cultivator who came to Yuhuatu ever meeting the young Emperor of Heaven."

"Let's go."

Jiang Chuan used the Thousand Starlight Escape Technique and flew into the Feathered Earth with the cat, dog and rabbit.

Soon, Jiangchuan passed through a series of intertwined time and space and came to a time and space that merged with the imperial tomb.

The moment he entered time and space, Jiang Chuan sensed the changes in the world and raised his eyes to look at the blue sky.

"Even with my Void Dao, I can't even sense the difference between time and space. The Feathered Earth is truly unique. I plan to stay here for a while to comprehend the differences between the two universes. Don't run around."

You notice that the universe the Celestial Emperor once inhabited seems different from the avenues of your own universe, so you prepare to contemplate the differences between the two universes to help you gain a deeper understanding of the mysteries of the universe and integrate more of the Celestial Emperor's magical powers into the Chaos Hole Primordial True Chapter.

[After Cat, Dog, and Rabbit agreed to your request, you found a deserted mountain as your cave abode and began your retreat.]

【After two 60 years, you will take a step further.】

[During your dual cultivation with Lu Chenling's Primordial Spirit, by comprehending the mysteries of the Qingyuan Realm and gaining insight into the evolution of the Qingwei Heaven, you have already completed nearly half of the Daluo Path, integrating nearly 1,500 Heavenly Emperor magical powers into the Chaotic Cave Primordial True Chapter.]

[After two decades of contemplation, the number of magical powers you have integrated into the Chaos Hole Yuanshi Zhenzhang has reached 1,600.]

[If you integrate into one thousand four hundred gates again, you will be able to transform nothingness into something, and through the way of something, you will attain the Dao and become Daluo.]

[In your perception, the world where the Emperor of Heaven resides, as the immortal path of the acquired great way, replaces a part of the innate great way and operates the entire world.]

[Could it be that the Emperor of Heaven is related to the Taoist Taiyuan who once merged with the immortal way?]

This thought surfaced in your mind, and after some reflection, you felt it was quite possible. After all, the Celestial Emperor was the first to descend upon this universe, and before the other cultivators of the outer heavens could, he had subdued the innate gods like the Sky Emperor and the Azure Emperor, established the Heavenly Court, and gained control of the supreme treasure, the Ten Thousand Dao Tree.

[Suppressing the thoughts in your mind, you continue to comprehend the differences between the two universes.]

[After another three decades, you made another step forward, successfully integrating another hundred Celestial Emperor magical powers into the Chaos Cave Primordial True Chapter.]

[A hundred years later, you were called out by Tai Huang.]

"Tai Huang, you, the old man, and the rabbit are all here, why are you calling me out of seclusion?"

Jiang Chuan was a little confused. After all, the cat, dog and rabbit were all safe and sound and didn't need him to rescue them. Why did Tai Huang call him out at this time?
"After Tai Huang and I went out, we came back and found an invitation among the treasures we stole."

Rabbit said as he handed Jiangchuan a red invitation with gold foil.

"I can be sure that this invitation is definitely not among the treasures we stole."

Tai Huang looked solemn. He was able to hide it from him and put the invitation on the rabbit without anyone noticing.

With this strength, he is almost as good as Daluo!

Jiang Chuan took the invitation and opened it directly.

The words on the invitation were shaped like a flying bird with its wings spread. He did not recognize them, but by sensing the thoughts of the person who wrote the invitation, he understood the meaning of the words on the invitation.

"Invite me to Youquan Mountain, thousands of miles to the east."

Jiang Chuan thought for a moment and made a decision: "Well, let's go to Youquan Mountain. I want to see what this Taoist Liu has in store."

Taking the cat, dog and rabbit, Jiangchuan went to Youquan Mountain, and soon Youquan Mountain appeared in Jiangchuan's eyes.

Youquan Mountain is about a thousand feet high. The top of the mountain is shrouded in mist all year round, and the mountain body is as lush and green as if immersed in a green glass cup.

The clear spring water flows down from the top of the mountain, winding like a snake among the ancient pines, and suddenly turns into a gauze-like curtain of water flowing over the entire mountain wall, making people sigh at the wonders of nature.

"Daoyou came so quickly."

A hearty voice came from the top of the mountain.

Jiang Chuan looked closely and saw an old Taoist wearing an indigo Taoist robe sitting in a pavilion on the top of the mountain.

The old Taoist's face was as old as tree bark, and his body was frail, like a frail old man. But strangely, his pupils and hair were both cyan, flowing with a strong vitality.

Landing in front of the pavilion, Jiang Chuan clasped his fists and said, "Jiang greets Fellow Daoist Liu."

"My humble abode is simple, and I only have some tea. I hope Brother Jiang will not be offended." Taoist Liu stood up to greet him, watched Jiang Chuan come to him, and then sat down again.

"Woof! Why did you invite us here?" Tai Huang went straight to the point.

"I want to achieve enlightenment."

After hearing what Taoist Liu said, Jiang Chuan asked, "Fellow Daoist Liu, although I am extremely powerful and consider myself a cultivator worthy of being called a master of all realms, I am still far from reaching the state of Daluo. Why do you think I can help you achieve Daluo?"

Taoist Liu did not answer Jiang Chuan's question, but asked another question: "What do you think of my strength?"

"Very strong, fellow Daoist can be said to be one of the strongest cultivators I have ever seen below Daluo."

In Jiangchuan's perception, Taoist Liu seemed to have dozens of vast worlds lying here. With just one move, he could tear apart time and space and shatter the universe.

"Since you've come here, you should know that this space-time doesn't actually belong to your universe, right?"

Taoist Liu paused, then continued, "On the eve of my enlightenment, the Heavenly Emperor merged with the Dao. He clashed with the Daluo who stood in his way, causing space-time to collapse and fracture. The me of today is actually just my past incarnation. Because of this great battle, my past incarnation arrived in this universe. If a living being has no past, then naturally, there is no future. Daluo, once attained, is eternal. My past incarnation is in your universe, blocked by the Sea of ​​Chaos, and my true self cannot connect with me. If I don't allow this space-time and my past incarnation to return to the Immortal Universe, I will never be able to attain Daluo."

"I invited you here because I noticed you were carrying valuable treasures and had traversed the path to Daluo, suggesting you might attain Daluo. As long as you promise to attain Daluo in the future, save this time and space, and help my past self return to the Immortal Universe, I will do my best to help you make further progress."

Patriarch Ziyun was very surprised: "How could there be such an unlucky person like you in this world?"

Taoist Liu: “.”

After figuring out Taoist Liu's intentions, you thought for a moment and then agreed to Taoist Liu's request.

[After all, for you, whether it's helping Fellow Daoist Liu escape his past life or resolving the problem of the Feathered Earth, you ultimately need to achieve Daluo. Your most urgent task now is to achieve Daluo. The guidance of someone who is about to achieve Daluo is extremely valuable to you.]

After you shared your own path with Taoist Liu, he was astonished. He hadn't expected you to be so bold and daring, comparable to the Three Pure Ones.

[Through your conversation with Taoist Liu, you also learned that the Immortal Universe is one of the ten universes opened up by the Taoist Taiyuan.]

[The immortal path flourishes in the Immortal Universe, with over thirty resident Daluo. Throughout history, countless Daluo have visited the Immortal Universe to visit friends.]

[Even Taiyuan Daojun has preached eight times in this universe with several Hunyuan.]

[Hunyuan is another name for the fifteen realms of harmony in the Chaos Sea.]

[As someone who is about to attain Daluo Dao, Taoist Liu's status in the universe of immortals is also extremely high.]

With a wave of his hand, he gifted you four scriptures: "The Divine Canon of Emptiness," "The Book of Primordial Chaos," "The Book of Burial Void," and "The Book of Time and Immortality." These four scriptures, all written by Half-Step Daluo, deal with the Dao of Nothingness, the Dao of Chaos, and the Dao of Space and Time.

Taoist Liu knows that you need to comprehend the mysteries of the universe to achieve enlightenment. From nothing, you must use the power of the Three Thousand Great Daos to evolve the true universe. Therefore, he will share with you the insights he has heard from the Daluo in the immortal universe about the mysteries of the universe.

After listening to the Immortal Universe Daluo's understanding of the mysteries of the universe, you immediately took a step forward and successfully integrated one hundred Heavenly Emperor magical powers into your Chaos Cave Primordial True Chapter.

[The gains from this time are truly immense. Do you think it would be a problem for you to return to seclusion and integrate over two thousand Celestial Emperor abilities into the Chaos Cave Primordial True Chapter?]

You solemnly promised Taoist Liu that once you achieve Daluo Dao, you will come to rescue his past life and help him return to the Immortal Universe.

[At the same time, you haven't forgotten the purpose of coming here. You ask Taoist Liu if he saw a nine-colored palace falling from the sky.]

[Master Liu stated that a long time ago, a nine-colored light indeed descended from the sky, heading due west from where he was.]

Tai Huang's expression changed, because the Thunder Tribulation Lake was located due west.

[As a place of destruction that has slain more than one peak-level Immortal Emperor, the reputation of Thunder Tribulation Lake is truly terrifying.]

You thanked Taoist Liu for his advice, but you didn't leave immediately.

[With a cultivator like Taoist Liu here, you should naturally make the most of him.]

You began to discuss the Dao. As someone who had browsed through the Qing Emperor's library and had now cultivated the Dao of Nothingness to the ninth level of the thirteenth realm, your understanding of the Dao was naturally profound, but Taoist Liu was clearly superior. After discussing the Dao with him for two decades, you benefited greatly and immediately took your leave.

[Returning to the barren mountain, you continue your retreat.]

【Two hundred years later, you will come out.】

[The discussion with Taoist Liu and the scriptures he gave you have been of great help to you.]

Not only did you integrate the Celestial Emperor's magical powers from the Chaos Hole Origin True Chapter, reaching 1,900 gates, but your Dao of Nothingness also broke through, truly reaching the Absolute Beginning Realm. Your Dao of Chaos and Dao of Space-Time also broke through, with the Dao of Chaos reaching the fourth level of the Thirteenth Realm, and the Dao of Space-Time both reaching the seventh level of the Thirteenth Realm.

[You are confident that if you were to fight the Fighting Immortal Buddha again, you would easily defeat him.]

[After exiting seclusion, you will directly choose to leave the Feathered Land and head to the Thunder Tribulation Lake to find the Xiantian Dao Palace.]

[The Sea of ​​Blood, Hanging Moon Mountain, White Bone Cave, Ghost Valley, Myriad Destruction Land, Feathered Earth, and Thunder Tribulation Lake are like petals, surrounding the very center, the core area rumored to contain the body of the Heavenly Emperor.]

After leaving the time and space where Taoist Liu's past incarnation resided, you head west to cross the Feathered Land and head towards Thunder Tribulation Lake.

[After arriving in another time and space, you quickly ran into trouble.]

[This space and time all belong to a man called Jade Sword Immortal Emperor.]

[Your arrival here constitutes an invasion of the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor's territory. The cultivators under his command will immediately attack you.]

[These cultivators pose no threat to you and you can easily defeat them, but then the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor appears and engages in a fierce battle with you.]

[Although the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor has not reached the Absolute Beginning Realm, he is also a peak Immortal Emperor at the ninth level of the Thirteenth Realm. As he is a sword cultivator, his killing power is even more terrifying.]

[If you were only at the level of the Emperor's Mausoleum, it would be difficult to suppress the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor, but for you now, suppressing the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor is not difficult at all.]

[You used only two moves to shatter the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor with the power of time and space.]

After defeating the Jade Sword Immortal Emperor, you continued to cross the Feathered Land, passing through one piece of time and space after another, defeating one Immortal Emperor after another. Finally, you passed through the Feathered Land and arrived at the Thunder Tribulation Lake.
