The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 135 The Fourth Life and the Harvest (3K10K)

This is why Chu Tianshu dared to choose such a dangerous method of transformation.

Only in this way can the root of the chaotic body be completely eliminated, allowing the potential of the human body to fully emerge.

"Now that the divine embryo has begun to develop life, it is time to complete the second step."

The entire process of silkworm molting can be roughly divided into three steps.

The first step is to completely melt down the physical body that needs to be transformed, turning it into a ball of divine essence.

The second step is to allow the divine essence to spontaneously generate new life over a long period of time.

The third step is for consciousness to emerge from its depravity and construct a new physical body.

Only by completing all three steps can one truly transform in this life.

The greatest danger that cultivators need to face is to maintain their clear consciousness and not succumb to darkness.

When the later Emperor Ye Tian broke free from the cage of the Chaos Body, he spoke very vaguely, only saying that he had severed the Chaos Body.

However, the specific steps involved in how it was severed are unknown.

Chu Tianshu had also tried to deduce the method to sever the Chaos Body, and found that although it could be severed, it was not completely severed.

It may take several more transformations before it can break free from the shackles of its physical constitution.

If Chu Tianshu only wanted to live out his next life, it wouldn't be difficult, since he still possessed several methods of transformation.

However, if one truly wishes to walk the path to immortality in the mortal world, then understanding the great secrets of the human body is an unavoidable hurdle.

Only by unlocking the full potential of the human body, understanding its profound secrets, and attempting to create substances that can generate immortality on their own, can one barely make it onto the path to immortality in the mortal world.

This is actually a choice between starting with the easy and then moving to the difficult, or starting with the difficult and then moving to the easy.

Clearly, Chu Tianshu chose to tackle the difficult issues first and then move on to the easier ones.

This is why his transformation took so long and was so dangerous.

Analogous to the Celestial Venerable of Morality, he must have chosen the easy path first and then the difficult one in his previous transformations, which is why he encountered major problems in his seventh transformation.

However, there is a great advantage to starting with the difficult and then moving to the easy: once the transformation is completed, it means that Chu Tianshu has almost successfully traversed the path to immortality in the mortal world.

With his comprehension, it wouldn't be difficult for him to uncover the secrets of the human body.

After a few more transformations, reaching a point where time cannot affect one's appearance, one can completely attain the immortal fruit of the mortal world.

Soon, Chu Tianshu's consciousness broke free from the endless darkness and appeared in a strange "world".

This is a vast and boundless ocean, entirely golden, with divine light filling the sky and auspicious energy rising, like a dreamlike place.

Endless Daoist principles flow and intertwine within the essence of divinity, unfolding supreme mysteries.

The entire ocean was shrouded in a hazy cocoon of light, with countless mysterious patterns flowing across its surface, exuding an aura of grandeur and magnificence.

"Life has been given a chance, so let's begin building the physical body!"

Chu Tianshu sensed the boundless vitality within the divine embryo and was extremely satisfied.

The next moment, he gathered endless divine essence together, and flesh, organs, meridians, bones... appeared one by one.

Before long, a young body appeared before Chu Tianshu. Although the face was young, his brows revealed an invincible aura that could sweep across the world and traverse the past and present.

Immediately, a divine light entered the space between the eyebrows of this physical body.

Click, click, click!
At the same time, the chaotic cocoon outside was also shattered inch by inch.

"Indeed, my choice was right."

"At this moment, the gates to my potential have been fully opened, and the great secrets of the human body are revealed before me!"

Chu Tianshu suddenly opened his eyes, a hint of surprise flashing in them.

If one could penetrate deep into Chu Tianshu's body, one could see countless, dazzling points of light, more brilliant and denser than the vast universe.

These points of light were scattered throughout every corner and every tiny spot of Chu Tianshu's body.

These points of light are naturally the gateways to potential buried deep within the human body.

Now freed from the constraints of the Chaos Body, these potential gates emerged one by one, revealing themselves to Chu Tianshu without reservation.

This is also the result of Chu Tianshu's physical transformation several times; otherwise, it would never have been opened so thoroughly.

"My lifespan in this life should be around 80,000 years."

Chu Tianshu sensed the vast Wheel of Life within the Sea of ​​Wheels Secret Realm, which was noticeably larger than the Wheel of Life in his previous life.

Roughly estimated, his maximum lifespan in this lifetime is around 80,000 years.

This surprised Chu Tianshu quite a bit, because, in theory, the lifespan of people with special physiques is generally longer than that of ordinary people.

He originally thought that after he shed his chaotic body, his lifespan in this life would be shortened.

However, to his surprise, there was no result; in fact, there were many more than in his previous life.

"Perhaps this is because the door to my full potential has been opened!"

Chu Tianshu shook his head and stopped paying attention to the matter.

This transformation benefited him greatly, allowing him to complete nearly two-thirds of the journey on the path to immortality in the mortal world, and his strength experienced a surge.

If he were to face the Emperor again, even without using the Dao-Severing and Annihilation Fruit, he could still fight him to a standstill. However, Chu Tianshu was not in a hurry to leave seclusion; instead, he continued his closed-door cultivation within the bronze coffin.

He had previously gained a clear understanding of the outside world and learned about the events of the past 90,000 years through the golden statue of faith.

The Emperor has not shown his face in the mortal realm during this period, and Chu Tianshu does not want to clash with the Emperor unless necessary.

After all, he could only barely contend with him at this point, and he couldn't do anything to him. Instead of spending this time confronting the Emperor, he might as well use it for cultivation.

His return to the mortal realm has opened all the doors to his potential, and he needs to sort them out and develop them to the maximum extent.

At the same time, he also needs to study the great secrets of the human body, delve into its origins, and attempt to create an initial form of immortal matter.

This transformation benefited him greatly, and he still has many insights to absorb. He needs to integrate the Dao fruits of his previous lives, and he also needs to deduce the cultivation of the Mortal Immortal in the future.

As the saying goes, "He who does not plan for the long term is not fit to plan for the short term."

He needs to conduct preliminary research on the path after becoming a Red Dust Immortal, such as opening up the sixth secret realm.

As is well known, the Human Body Secret Realm Method consists of five major secret realms: the Sea of ​​Wheels, the Dao Palace, the Four Extremes, the Dragon Transformation, and the Immortal Platform.

However, as early as the mythological era, many supreme beings had studied the secrets of the human body, hoping to open up a new secret realm in order to see the way forward and ascend to the path of immortality.

As expected, these supreme beings did not discover anything, but instead created numerous supreme calamities.

There are many such studies, spanning the entire mythological era and conducted vigorously for millions of years, yet they have still yielded no results.

Ultimately, like the Underworld Lord's method of communicating with spirits through corpses, it was completely swept into the dustbin of history.

Chu Tianshu was not surprised by this situation.

After all, none of the Heavenly Emperors who achieved the status of Immortal in the Mortal World in later generations have ever been known to have opened the Sixth Secret Realm.

Clearly, this sixth secret realm is beyond the reach of the human realm; it would be truly extraordinary if they were able to research it.

However, Chu Tianshu was different. He didn't study it before because he himself hadn't yet successfully traversed the mortal immortal path, and studying the sixth secret realm would have been unrealistic and unrealistic.

He might end up like those mythical supreme beings, spending tens of thousands of years researching but gaining nothing, ultimately forced to either pass away peacefully or commit suicide.

But things are different now. For Chu Tianshu, the Path to Immortality in the Mortal World is practically a sure thing, and it's time to put the research on the road ahead on the agenda.

As for the Emperor, Chu Tianshu completely forgot about him.

Three hundred thousand versus millions, the advantage is mine!

The sound is loud, but the elephant is invisible!
In an instant, an unparalleled Daoist celestial sound emanated from Chu Tianshu, striking the bronze coffin.

Fortunately, he had already made arrangements in advance, so the news did not spread.

……

Sunrise and moonset, moonrise and sunset.

In the blink of an eye, ten thousand years have quietly slipped away once again.

The Great Emperor Gouchen's suppression of the Great Dao dissipated, and the Heavenly Heart Mark hung high in the Nine Heavens, ushering in a new era, silently awaiting the next Dao Prover.

However, this time was different. The successive appearances of the previous emperors seemed to have exhausted the resources of heaven and earth.

Neither the human race nor the various ancient races have produced a prodigy with the potential to become an emperor.

It was clearly a golden age of revival of heaven and earth and the clashing of all paths, yet there were hardly any quasi-emperors, let alone any who reached the high-level quasi-emperor stage, let alone those who had attained the Dao and become emperors.

Time passed year after year, and peace prevailed throughout the universe. Chu Tianshu remained in seclusion in the giant bronze coffin, seemingly enjoying a life of tranquility.

Chu Tianshu was unwilling to cause trouble for the Emperor, but that didn't mean the Emperor wouldn't cause him trouble.

On the path to immortality.

A hazy imperial figure sat cross-legged before the Immortal Gate, and one after another, great paths manifested, swirling around the imperial figure.

Emperor Ying's aura was vast and boundless. He was merely sitting there, yet it was as if one were facing a majestic world, like a celestial king sitting at the end of the sky.

Suddenly, a unique Taoist aura wafted over, as if it were receiving the worship of heaven, earth, humanity, gods, and ghosts.

Sonorous!

The emperor's figure suddenly opened his eyelids, and in an instant, two boundless golden lights bloomed and disappeared into the boundless chaos, immediately triggering a massive collision that stirred up billions of chaotic events.

"After more than 100,000 years of arduous cultivation, I have finally restored my Dao Fruit to its full potential!"

"Now that my cultivation has fully recovered, it's time to settle accounts with Taiyi."

A majestic voice rang out, instantly shaking the entire Path to Immortality.

It wasn't that the Emperor didn't want to settle scores with Chu Tianshu after achieving immortality in the mortal world; it was simply that Chu Tianshu's progress was too rapid.

In just two hundred thousand years, this Taiyi has already completed half of the mortal immortal path.

However, due to the issue of his Dao Fruit, he had to go into seclusion to recover from his injuries for the past 100,000 years.

This gave Taiyi another hundred thousand years. If he continued to seclude himself, even if he became a mortal immortal, Taiyi would probably have already completed his journey.

By then, killing Taiyi will not be so easy.

Now is a good opportunity. Before Taiyi can create immortal substances, it's the perfect time to strike.

Even if we can't kill him, we must severely injure him, leaving a wound in his body to interrupt his path of transformation.
