The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 160 Reunion with the Immortal King of No End and the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation
Fortunately, this seclusion was successful, which greatly improved his Dao and Dharma, and his strength made significant progress, which gave Chu Tianshu much more confidence.

Even if he were to encounter a true Immortal King at this moment, he would be confident that he could retreat with ease.

"Since the Dao and the Law have reached their limits, we can set them aside for now and focus our energy on the physical body and the primordial spirit."

Although Chu Tianshu's Dao and Dharma have taken a step into the realm of Immortal King, it is still not an easy task to fully enter the realm and reach the ultimate peak of Immortal in the deduction.

If it were really that easy, the Three Pure Ones and those ten monstrous beings who were quasi-immortal kings would have already broken through, why would they have waited until now?

Moreover, Chu Tianshu was pursuing the complete power of an Immortal King through the Dao and the Law, which was much more difficult.

Chu Tianshu won't reach the pinnacle of immortality anytime soon; he'll need a considerable amount of time to perfect his skills.

Therefore, he temporarily focused his energy on his primordial spirit and physical body, but he will continue to perfect the Dao and the Dharma.

If he could reach the Immortal King level in either of these two fields, his strength would increase dramatically.

Of course, Chu Tianshu had the greatest confidence in his physical body.

After all, one of his fundamental paths was the evolution of his physique, which played a crucial role in his path to immortality in the mortal world, allowing him to gradually transform from a fully-fledged hegemonic physique into a chaotic physique that encompasses everything.

Afterwards, the full opening of the Gate of Human Potential and the Great Secrets of the Human Body allowed Chu Tianshu to improve it considerably.

Therefore, he was very confident that he could bring his physical body into the realm of the Immortal King.

In particular, Chu Tianshu heard that the Ten Fiends in the Ancient Realm had all stepped into the Immortal King realm with their physical bodies, and had a very high level of expertise in physical cultivation.

For example, the True Dragon, the leader of the Ten Fiends, is not only a Celestial King, but also a Celestial King Giant. His achievements in both physical body and primordial spirit are among the best in the ancient world.

Next are the Heavenly Horned Ants and the God-Slaying Stones, whose physical bodies are also very strong.

The Heavenly Horned Ant is known as the ultimate in strength, the strongest creature in the world. Once it is completely enraged and enters a berserk state, even a true dragon will have to give way.

The God-Slaying Stone is known for its sturdiness, and its physical abilities are also very high.

The other ten fierce beasts, while also quite formidable in terms of physical strength, were still somewhat inferior to the likes of Zhenlong.

As for the primordial spirit, Chu Tianshu did not expect to step into the realm of Immortal King in one step. After all, the primordial spirit has never been his strong point. He just wanted to do his best to make up for this shortcoming.

While it's not necessary to reach a level comparable to physical strength, there shouldn't be a significant gap either, otherwise, the enemy might use it as a weak point in the future.

Most of the ten fierce beasts who failed to break through to the Immortal King realm were still lacking in terms of their primordial spirit.

Wang Huan's Primordial Spirit Sword Technique gave him an idea. He planned to create a special technique that could temper the primordial spirit and gradually increase its strength.

However, Chu Tianshu was not in a hurry to leave seclusion. Instead, he continued to cultivate in the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea.

Although he wanted to seek out the Ten Fiends to learn about physical bodies, Chu Tianshu did not know their exact location at the moment.

Besides, you don't know them at this moment, so even if you find them, they may not be willing to pay attention to you.

If the Immortal King of No End and the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation could intervene, the situation would be different.

As powerful Immortal Kings, they held a prestigious position in the ancient realm and were regarded as leaders in the resistance against foreign lands.

However, both the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui are currently in seclusion, recovering from their injuries.

Chu Tianshu had no intention of going out. Instead, he secluded himself in the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea to perfect his Dao and Dharma, deduce the evolution of his physical body, and attempt to research methods for tempering his primordial spirit.

On the other hand, they patiently waited for the two Celestial Kings to emerge from seclusion.

……

Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea.

Inside a chaotic palace somewhere.

A hazy figure sat cross-legged in the void, with endless Daoist energy flowing from his body, enacting the changes of time within the hall. Faintly, the sound of a surging river could be heard, as if it contained endless mysteries of time.

Above his head, an ancient bell floated, its light flowing and illuminating all the heavens and the myriad worlds.

After an unknown amount of time, the time-related illusions that had been entangled in the hazy figure slowly faded away, revealing his true form.

"Fellow Daoist Wuzhong, how is your injury recovery going?"

No sooner had the words left his mouth than a figure suddenly appeared in the hall—it was none other than the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King.

"It's all right now."

Wu Zhong slowly opened his eyes, his voice slightly weak.

During this raid on another realm, he was besieged by several immortal kings, including some giants.

In order to save the geniuses of the ancient realm as much as possible, Wu Zhong unleashed his full power at that time, disregarding all his own safety, and repelled those immortal kings. As a result, his injuries were much more severe than those of the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King.

"Speaking of which, I bear some responsibility for the attack on the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea. I was too arrogant about my attainments in the Great Dao of Time, which led to me not even being able to react to the attack from the other side."

The Immortal King Wuzhong's tone carried a hint of guilt.

He hadn't expected that the other realm would dare to venture so deep into the ancient realm, and coupled with being deceived by the River of Time, he was caught off guard. "Fellow Daoist Wuzhong, why blame yourself? The other realm also has giants who are proficient in the laws of time, and their strength has always been much greater than ours. They have the intention to take advantage of your unpreparedness, so it's natural that you can't defend against them," the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King comforted him.

Although the Immortal King Wuzhong was exceptionally accomplished in the Great Dao of Time, there were also immortal giants in the other realms who were proficient in the Great Dao of Time. Even if they were not as good as him, they were enough to conceal their movements.

"Speaking of which, we have to thank that person who is not of this era. If he hadn't made his move, not only would the new generation of geniuses in the ancient world have been wiped out, but even the Three Pure Ones might not have been able to escape the disaster."

The preparations for this trip to another realm were very thorough. Beyond the borderlands, the Immortal King was guarding the pass, attracting most of the Immortal Kings and the Ten Fiends from the ancient realm.

Furthermore, they deployed a considerable number of Immortal Kings to hold back the two of them, and there were also nearly a hundred Quasi-Immortal Kings.

If Chu Tianshu hadn't unleashed his full power, each of the Three Pure Ones would have faced an attack from nearly ten beings of the same level, and given enough time, defeat would have been almost inevitable.

"Wu Zhong, didn't you say that the young man was not a person of this era, but rather someone extraordinary in this ancient history? With his actions, he must have made large-scale changes to the ancient history. Why didn't he suffer any backlash from the river of time? Could it be that your guess is wrong?"

The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King was somewhat curious. As a giant among immortal kings, he would occasionally stumble into other ancient histories while fighting against the immortal kings of other realms.

However, they were all very cautious and dared not act recklessly in those ancient historical records, as it would bring backlash if it caused changes in the history of those records.

If the interference is too excessive, even a Celestial King like him risks perishing.

Such things have happened before in ancient history.

However, Chu Tianshu unleashed a series of attacks that day, killing more than ten quasi-immortal kings. Many human beings, immortal beings, and even quasi-immortal kings who should have perished survived.

Such a large-scale alteration of ancient history would severely damage even a Celestial King.

However, judging from Chu Tianshu's condition that day, he not only did not suffer any backlash, but was also surprisingly well. His strength may even see a great improvement.

This made the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King wonder if the Endless Immortal King had miscalculated.

"Absolutely impossible!"

The Immortal King Wuzhong was resolute; he was very confident in his Great Dao of Time and could not possibly be mistaken.

"That's strange, why didn't he suffer any karmic repercussions?"

The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King was somewhat puzzled. If it were a small-scale event, he could understand it, but the commotion he had just witnessed was definitely not a small-scale event.

"It's alright, this is good news for our industry as well."

The Immortal King Wuzhong didn't care and had no intention of investigating the hidden secrets behind it.

Such secrecy may involve some incredible people or events that are beyond the reach of the Celestial King's realm.

If you learn things you shouldn't know, it might bring about a terrible disaster.

In the eyes of the Immortal King Wuzhong, Chu Tianshu's karma was too great, and he did not want to get involved unless necessary.

"Now that our injuries have mostly healed, it's time to resume our sermons." The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King nodded upon hearing this and did not dwell on it any further.

They had originally held the Grand Feast of Ten Thousand Races' Pride in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea precisely to cultivate some promising juniors.

However, before the sermon could begin, the alien realm was suddenly attacked, causing endless carnage. Even the two of them were seriously injured, and the grand event was naturally delayed.

"No rush, let's meet Taiyi first!"

The Immortal King Wuzhong shook his head. Although he had no intention of investigating the secret behind Chu Tianshu's ability to act with impunity, he still wanted to see him again.

The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King did not object, and he also had a good impression of this quasi-immortal king who had turned the tide.

The next moment, the Immortal King Wuzhong flicked his finger, sending out a mysterious divine light that disappeared into the void.

……

An ancient and simple hall somewhere.

Chu Tianshu sat cross-legged on the Dao platform, endless radiance flowing around him, demonstrating the profound mysteries of all laws.

The secrets of the human body, the laws of this world, the ancient immortal laws, and the laws of distant times, including the incomplete True Phoenix Treasure Technique and other secret arts, are all revealed one by one.

Apart from the uncertain situation of Chu Tianshu in this life, all the other methods have produced at least one Immortal King, indicating that their systems have great potential and many are worth referencing.

He was using these methods to see if he could extract their essence and deduce the secrets of becoming a king through the physical body and the primordial spirit, while also further perfecting his own Dao and methods.

This is destined to be a difficult road, requiring overcoming numerous obstacles before the day breaks.

Before dawn, Chu Tianshu needs to accumulate as much as possible and improve all his shortcomings.

Just then, a mysterious force appeared in the void and entered Chu Tianshu's primordial spirit with lightning speed.

The next moment, a complex set of coordinates appeared in Chu Tianshu's primordial spirit, and in an instant, Chu Tianshu withdrew from his seclusion.

"Have the Immortal King Wuzhong and the others emerged from seclusion?"
