The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 154 The Young Desolate Emperor
Chu Tianshu looked at the big black dog in front of him with some surprise. He suddenly thought of the pet of the Great Emperor Wushi in later generations. It was just as sarcastic. In addition, it was Wuzhong Wushi and also walked the Great Dao of Time. It seemed that someone had really walked the path of reincarnation.

"The probability of such a thing being a coincidence is extremely small. It seems that the Great Emperor Wushi in later generations may indeed be the reincarnation of the Immortal King Wuzhong."

Chu Tianshu felt a chill run down his spine, and his expression immediately turned serious.

A single factor can be explained by similar flowers, but when so many factors are the same, then there's more to it than meets the eye.

Clearly, the Great Emperor Wushi of later generations may indeed be the reincarnation of the Immortal King Wuzhong.

However, what puzzled Chu Tianshu was why there was no reincarnation of the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King in later generations.

Logically speaking, the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King was an expert in reincarnation, so he should have had a reincarnation in later generations.

However, upon recounting the great emperors of later generations, it seemed that none of them could match the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King.

"Could it be that the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King failed in his reincarnation?" Chu Tianshu wondered to himself.

This situation is not impossible; as the saying goes, even the best swimmers can drown, and even the best riders can fall.

The more confident you are in a field, the more likely you are to run into problems.

Whether it's a past life or a present life, there are countless examples like this.

"Wang..."

"What's with that expression? Are you trying to hit me?"

"Let me tell you, my master is the Immortal King Wuzhong. You'd better think this through."

Looking at the serious expression on the man's face, coupled with the faint yet terrifying aura emanating from him, the Black Emperor was immediately terrified, his hair standing on end.

Especially that palm strike just now, it almost killed him. If his physical body hadn't been cleansed by the essence blood of the Immortal King Wuzhong, he might have been killed directly.

Even so, he was still in so much pain that he grimaced, feeling as if his internal organs had been shattered.

Seeing Chu Tianshu's expression, which seemed to indicate that he was about to make a move, the Black Emperor quickly brought up the Wuzhong Immortal King.

"So it was the pet of the Immortal King Wuzhong. I thought people from other realms had invaded the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea."

Chu Tianshu snapped out of his daze, took a deep look at the big black dog, and was about to leave when Black Emperor suddenly jumped up again.

"Wang..."

"Great master, what does the Immortal King want with you? If you tell me, I will not pursue the matter of your sneak attack on Lord Black Emperor. Otherwise, I will go to the Immortal King to complain."

Black Emperor's face was full of flattery, completely forgetting that he had just been slapped by Chu Tianshu.

Chu Tianshu ignored the Black Emperor beside him and walked forward on his own, but he was thinking about something else.

Why didn't he suffer the consequences of the passage of time?

After all, he doesn't belong to this ancient history. If he's just a passerby, the backlash, though small, is not nonexistent.

He didn't know much about these things before, but he gained some understanding of them after his cultivation level improved.

Especially since he had just attacked the Black Emperor without suffering any backlash, which completely surprised Chu Tianshu.

It seems that he can act freely in this space-time without suffering any backlash.

This situation is too abnormal. It could be due to the place that connects the past and present, or it could be due to the wisp of immortal light in his mind, or both.

Otherwise, his appearance would have inevitably affected ancient history, and there would have been no causal backlash whatsoever.

"Could it be you?"

Chu Tianshu murmured to himself, as if he saw in the depths of his sea of ​​consciousness that celestial light, which seemed to symbolize eternity and unchanging nature, had frozen the past and future into an eternal present world.

In either case, it's good news for Chu Tianshu.

Otherwise, under the backlash of cause and effect, he would inevitably be constrained in his actions.

"Wang..."

"Wait for me! You still haven't received news of the Immortal King Wuzhong..."

Seeing that Chu Tianshu ignored him, the Black Emperor behind him kicked off and quickly followed.

Not long after, the man and the dog left the Chaos Palace.

Just as Chu Tianshu stepped out of the Chaos Hall, Wang Huan, who had been waiting outside, immediately came to greet him.

"Brother Taiyi, the Three Pure Ones are looking for some like-minded people to exchange ideas with. I wonder if you would be interested?"

Wang Huan was interested in befriending Chu Tianshu, this mysterious quasi-Immortal King, so he did not leave after Chu Tianshu entered the Chaos Palace.

It wasn't just because of his strength, but also because he was favored by the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudaoshenji.

Neither of the two Celestial Kings were ordinary Celestial Kings. Most Quasi-Celestial Kings had never even seen their faces, let alone issued an edict to summon them personally.

"Wang..."

"Wang Huan, you had such a good thing and you didn't even tell me!"

Before Chu Tianshu could speak, Black Emperor spoke first.

The discussion between the Quasi-Immortal King and the Dao also had considerable benefits for it, after all, it had only been in the realm of immortality for a short time.

"We would be more than happy if Lord Black Emperor were to go."

It was only then that Wang Huan realized that Wu Zhong Immortal King's pet had also run out with Tai Yi, which made him value Chu Tianshu even more.

"Brother Wang, you are too kind. It is an honor to be able to discuss the Dao with fellow Daoists like you."

Chu Tianshu cupped his hands in greeting and agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Although Quasi-Immortal Kings are not as powerful as Immortal Kings, they have all reached the Immortal King level in a certain field, and their strength far surpasses that of immortal beings.

If he could communicate with them, it would be of great benefit to him, so there was no reason for him to refuse.

In particular, if Chu Tianshu wants to reach the pinnacle of the Immortal realm in the Deduction, he needs to communicate with many Quasi-Immortal Kings and Immortal Kings to constantly improve his Dao and Dharma.

According to Chu Tianshu's deduction, to enter that realm, one must push one's own Dao and Dharma to an extreme level, reaching a level comparable to that of an Immortal King, before one can venture into that domain.

His current understanding of Dao and Dharma is not even at its peak among quasi-immortal kings, and there is still a lot of room for improvement.

If he were to work on it alone in isolation, it would take him at least a million years, which is indeed a long time for someone like Chu Tianshu, who has achieved immortality in the mortal world over hundreds of thousands of years.

Once he reaches the pinnacle of immortality, the benefits will be immense. Even if his physical body and primordial spirit have not yet entered the realm of immortal kings, he will still be able to unleash the full combat power of an immortal king.

Such a Dao Fruit is too astonishing. As far as he knows, some of the Ten Fiends at the Quasi-Immortal King level can only unleash combat power at the level of a flawed Immortal King. They can barely fight against some ordinary Immortal Kings even if they fight desperately, and they still cannot reach the level of a complete Immortal King.

If Chu Tianshu reaches the pinnacle of immortality, his combat power will surpass that of the top ten fierce beasts of the same level.

If he becomes a Breakthrough Immortal King later on, he will at least be at the level of a giant Immortal King, saving him countless years of arduous cultivation.

If the sixth secret realm can also be opened up, it might be possible to reach the limit of the Immortal King realm, which can be described as ascending to heaven in one step.

"Brother Dao, please!"

Wang Huan was delighted upon hearing this and immediately began to lead the way.

The blue waves ripple, the sea is shrouded in mist, and behind them, countless towering purple bamboos take root in the South China Sea, their branches and leaves flourishing, and they are even illuminated by divine clouds.

Walking through the purple bamboo forest brings peace to the mind, as if washing away the dust from the soul. Before long, the two people and the dog passed through the groves of purple bamboo and appeared on a fairy island.

The entire Immortal Path resembles a giant turtle, stretching for hundreds of millions of miles. The island is covered with rolling hills, each one extraordinary and containing rich essence of heaven and earth and substances that promote longevity.

Many prodigies have already arrived on the Immortal Island. Most of them are from the Human Realm and have come here to listen to the teachings on the Great Dao.

The discussions of the Quasi-Immortal Kings are of great benefit even to immortal beings, let alone to these supreme beings of the human realm.

When Chu Tianshu and the others appeared, it caused a series of exclamations.

"Hiss, Lord Wang Huan has come too? He has the ultimate move, the Suppression of Rebellion."

"I wonder if Lord Wang Huan will pass down the strategy for quelling the rebellion!"

Even some immortal beings couldn't help but show longing when the topic of the "Suppressing the Rebellion" came up.

This sword technique is so renowned that it was used by Immortal King Yuanheng to withstand the siege of several Immortal Kings and even kill one of them.

Such a record is considered extremely outstanding even in the realm of Immortal Kings.

Unfortunately, Immortal King Yuanheng ultimately succumbed to his severe injuries and could not be saved.

Otherwise, the ancient realm's strength would be even greater.

"Who is that other Quasi-Immortal King? I don't think I've ever seen him before."

"I've never seen him either; he might be some reclusive senior monk!"

Just as the many prodigies were discussing this, the Black Emperor suddenly appeared from behind the two of them.

"My pets, hurry up and welcome your Black Emperor!"

Black King stood up, mimicking a human, crossed his two front paws in front of his chest, and barked arrogantly.

"Could this dog have really learned from the Immortal King Wuzhong?"

Chu Tianshu glanced at the Black Emperor, but paid him no further attention. He took a step forward and landed in the center of the Immortal Island.

At this moment, in the center of the immortal island, three Dao platforms were already suspended in the void, and three Quasi-Immortal Kings sat cross-legged on the Dao platforms.

The three quasi-immortal kings appeared as elderly, middle-aged, and young people, respectively. The elderly man exuded a calm and detached aura, the middle-aged man a majestic and dignified aura, and the young man a spirited and vigorous aura.

“Fellow Daoist Taiyi, these three are the renowned Three Pure Ones of our ancient realm: the Great Crimson Heavenly Lord, the Pure Subtle Heavenly Lord, and the Yu Yu Heavenly Lord!” Wang Huan said from the side.

However, Chu Tianshu had no interest in listening to Wang Huan's introduction at the moment, and instead focused his attention on the Great Crimson Heavenly Lord and the Yu Yu Heavenly Lord.

Chu Tianshu was astonished to discover that the appearances of the Great Crimson Heavenly Lord and the Yu Yu Heavenly Lord were exactly the same as those of the Moral Heavenly Venerable and the Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable of later generations, and the key point was that the Great Dao they cultivated also seemed to be the same.

"Are they two reincarnated beings again?"

Chu Tianshu secretly speculated that if it weren't for the fact that their cultivation levels didn't match, he would have really thought that the Moral Celestial Venerable had returned to the Immortal Ancient Era, just like him.

This situation further corroborated his previous conjecture that the Great Emperor Wushi of later generations was indeed the reincarnation of the Immortal King Wuzhong, and not a similar flower.

On the other hand, the Three Pure Ones were also very pleased with Chu Tianshu's arrival.

As quasi-Immortal Kings, they could sense the faint but palpable pressure emanating from Chu Tianshu, a pressure that was in no way inferior to any of them.

Such a powerful quasi-immortal king's path would surely provide them with considerable inspiration, so they naturally wouldn't turn him away.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, please!"

As soon as the Great Crimson Heavenly Lord finished speaking, endless Dao principles gathered in the void and condensed into a Dao platform.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist!"

Chu Tianshu cupped his hands in greeting and then landed on the platform.

"Fellow Daoist Taiyi, please forgive us. There are still a few fellow Daoists who haven't arrived yet. Please wait patiently for a while," Yu Yu Heavenly Lord explained cheerfully from the side.

"Brother Dao, you're welcome!"

After Chu Tianshu finished speaking, he immediately started chatting with Yu Yu, the Heavenly Lord, who was standing next to him.

After all, the Lingbao Tianzun of later generations was very likely his reincarnation, so Chu Tianshu naturally had a good impression of him.

At the same time, Chu Tianshu also wanted to learn some things about the Immortal Ancient Era from Lord Yu Yu.

Previously, he used various methods to search the world, but he could only obtain some superficial information; the real secrets would not be leaked.

Quasi-Immortal Kings hold a high position in the ancient world, and there are very few things they don't know.

After some conversation, Chu Tianshu discovered that there were indeed quite a few Immortal Kings in the Ancient Realm at this time.

Not only were there Immortal Kings from the Ancient Realm, but the Immortal Domain also provided support, numbering around twenty or thirty.

However, even with so many Celestial Kings, they were still destroyed by the alien realm. It's hard to imagine just how powerful that world was.

At the same time, this also made Chu Tianshu feel a sense of urgency.

Based on the time he spent in the distant past, he would probably need to stay in the Immortal Ancient Era for hundreds of thousands of years.

If a major war breaks out in another region during this time, he will not be able to remain unaffected.

Now there is only one path left, and that is to reach the pinnacle of immortality as soon as possible and break through to become a Mirror Immortal King.

The stronger you are, the more calmly you can face the future situation.

As time passed, several more quasi-immortal kings arrived, and many more prodigies also came from the surrounding areas.

Suddenly, Chu Tianshu sensed a familiar aura.

"Ok?"

"Is that using one's body as a seed?"

Sensing this energy, Chu Tianshu immediately looked in the direction of the energy.

A remarkable young man, carrying a sword embryo on his back, was chatting with the other prodigies around him.

Chu Tianshu sensed an aura in this young prodigy that did not belong to the past or the present.

Clearly, this young prodigy, like him, also came from a later era.

What shocked Chu Tianshu the most was that he discovered this young prodigy resembled the peerless Emperor Ying of yesteryear.

"Could he be the future Desolate Emperor?"

Chu Tianshu secretly guessed that the legendary method of using one's own body as a seed was created by the Desolate Emperor.

In the ancient times of immortality, there were attempts by talented individuals to take the path of using their bodies as seeds, but none of them succeeded.

Soon, the conversation among those young prodigies confirmed Chu Tianshu's suspicions.

"Brother Huang, we've truly arrived at a wonderful time. The Three Pure Ones are giving a sermon, and the son of Immortal King Yuanheng is also here. This is a rare and great opportunity," said a phoenix maiden dressed in five-colored robes, a hint of joy in her eyes.

"Yes! If it weren't for the teachings of the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui, it would be difficult for us to even catch a glimpse of these quasi-immortal kings. We never expected to have the opportunity to hear their teachings on the Great Dao."

The speaker was a young girl, who was holding a white Qilin cub in her arms.
