The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 161 The Immortal Sutra

A hint of joy flashed in Chu Tianshu's eyes. Who else but those two Immortal King giants could discern his location in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea without him noticing?

He immediately abandoned any thought of seclusion, took a step forward, transformed into a beam of divine light, and disappeared into the vast sea of ​​purple bamboo forest.

Before long, Chu Tianshu arrived at a place shrouded in celestial mist and filled with auspicious energy, where a chaotic palace could be faintly seen in the void.

Upon sensing Chu Tianshu's approach, the grand hall materialized directly from the void.

Without hesitation, Chu Tianshu flew towards the Chaos Palace. The Chaos Waterfall around the palace slowly dispersed, revealing a passage.

The next moment, Chu Tianshu felt a sudden change in his vision, and before he could react, he found himself inside the main hall.

"As expected of a Celestial King giant, even though my cultivation has touched the Celestial King realm, I am still far from them." Chu Tianshu felt a chill in his heart.

The power of the Celestial King was beyond his imagination; his attacks were so sudden that he couldn't even react, even though his own strength had improved.

But now is not the time to dwell on these things.

"Taiyi has met the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui!"

Chu Tianshu bowed slightly, paying his respects to the two hazy figures above the main hall.

"No need for formalities. In fact, we owe our existence entirely to your help this time; otherwise, our realm would have suffered heavy losses."

With a wave of his hand, the Immortal King Wuzhong unleashed an invisible force that helped Chu Tianshu to his feet.

"You flatter me, Immortal King. I was merely trying to protect myself."

Chu Tianshu shook his head. Putting everything else aside, if the Three Pure Ones Heavenly Lord and Wang Huan and the others were surrounded and killed, he would be next.

Among the foreign army are nearly a hundred near-immortal kings, and the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea is also sealed off by the immortal kings of the foreign lands. Even if Chu Tianshu can briefly unleash the power of the Ten Fiends, the risk of his demise is still very high in the long run.

"Judging by actions, not intentions, for by intentions, no one in the world is perfect!"

“If everyone in the ancient realm had your level of awareness, our battle against the alien world wouldn’t be so difficult.”

The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King's voice was initially gentle, like that of a true sage, but when he spoke the last sentence, his words were full of helplessness.

After several eras of development, there are quite a few Quasi-Immortal Kings and Immortal Kings in the Ancient Realm, but not all of them are willing to fight to the death with the other side.

Some people remain indecisive and never truly make up their minds.

Although the two of them were powerful Immortal Kings, they were powerless against those Quasi-Immortal Kings and Immortal Kings who were only going through the motions.

Otherwise, with the many Ten Fiends and Immortal Kings of the Ancient Realm, plus the Immortal Kings supporting them from the Immortal Domain, how could they have ended up in such a precarious situation?

Even the Purple Bamboo Forest in the South China Sea, located in the heart of the ancient world, was besieged by a large army led by the aliens, causing countless geniuses to shed their blood in the South China Sea.

For a moment, the atmosphere in the entire hall became heavy, and neither the Immortal King of No End nor the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation spoke again.

As for the situation in the Ancient Realm, Chu Tianshu didn't know much about it and it wasn't appropriate for him to interfere.

After a long while, the Immortal King Wuzhong finally spoke, breaking the heavy atmosphere in the hall.

"Alright, the main reason we called you here is to see you. Also, if you have any questions about cultivation, you can ask us for guidance."

"With our combined cultivation levels, we should be able to resolve many of your concerns."

The Immortal King Wuzhong spoke in a calm voice, as if he were talking about something insignificant.

Although Chu Tianshu's cultivation method is different from the ancient immortal method, they ultimately lead to the same goal.

With his level of understanding, he could still offer some guidance to Chu Tianshu on his confusions.

Chu Tianshu below was delighted upon hearing this and immediately asked without hesitation.

Since he became a mortal immortal, he has indeed accumulated a lot of confusion in his heart.

During the Daoist discussions in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea, Chu Tianshu was able to resolve many of his doubts through exchanges with those quasi-Immortal Kings.

However, the more Chu Tianshu knew, the more confused he became, all of which stemmed from his contemplation of the Immortal King realm and even higher realms.

If these doubts can be resolved, it will not only greatly increase Chu Tianshu's cultivation level, but it will also remove many obstacles for him and pave the way for his future cultivation.

Now that the two Immortal Kings were willing to offer guidance, Chu Tianshu didn't stand on ceremony and explained all his doubts.

This is why, in the ancient immortal era, there were still many immortal kings in the human realm, and Chu Tianshu could consult them.

In later generations, the entire human realm, the strange world, and even the immortal realm would not have a single immortal, let alone a quasi-immortal king or immortal king. Chu Tianshu's cultivation level would probably be the highest, and he would have no one to communicate with.

If he continued his arduous cultivation like that, he would have to take countless detours before Chu Tianshu could break through to the Immortal King realm or even higher.

Fortunately, Chu Tianshu was lucky and found a place that connected the past and present in the chaos, where he first achieved the status of a mortal immortal in ancient times.

Later, he returned to the Immortal Ancient Realm and met Wuzhong and the two Immortal King giants of the Six Paths.

Endless Daoist sounds reverberated within the main hall, mostly Chu Tianshu asking questions and Wuzhong Immortal King or Liudao Reincarnation Immortal King answering.

Sometimes, in the void, the two immortal kings would even personally demonstrate various techniques to dispel Chu Tian's confusion.

This consultation lasted for nine days and nine nights before Chu Tianshu finally voiced all his doubts.

Although the two Celestial Kings couldn't explain all the confusion in his heart, they did give Chu Tianshu a fairly good understanding of the situation.

"Thank you both, Immortal Kings, for enlightening me!"

Chu Tianshu cupped his hands in greeting and bowed to the figures of Wuzhong and Liudao.

This Q&A session was very beneficial to Chu Tianshu. It not only guided him on the right path, but also helped him avoid many wrong turns and saved him a lot of time.

"No need for formalities. The above are merely our personal opinions. Everyone's path is different, and you must grasp the specifics of your own practice."

The Immortal King Wuzhong waved his hand, indicating that Chu Tianshu did not need to be so polite.

From the very beginning of cultivation, the most important thing for a cultivator is to find the path that suits them and then refine it step by step.

The so-called realm is nothing more than the manifestation of the Dao after it has been perfected to a certain degree.

Ultimately, the path must be walked by the practitioner themselves.

Just then, the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King also spoke up.

“Young friend Taiyi, your insights into the physical body are quite extraordinary, but Wuzhong and I are not particularly proficient in the field of the physical body.”

"But I have a good relationship with the True Dragon King and the Heavenly Horned Ant King, and I can introduce them to you."

"As for Immortal Monk King and Immortal Golden Daoist, Immortal King Wuzhong will have a better relationship with them, so let him introduce you!" Chu Tianshu's face lit up with joy upon hearing this, and he quickly thanked Immortal King Wuzhong and Immortal King Liudao Reincarnation.

By this time, a considerable amount of time had passed since he entered the Immortal Ancient Era, and he had gained a general understanding of the various kings of the ancient realm.

Whether it's the True Dragon King, the Heavenly Horned Ant King, the Immortal Monk King, or the Immortal Golden Daoist, they are all powerful among the Immortal Kings, with their strength at least among the top Immortal Kings.

Especially the True Dragon King, who is a giant immortal king who is no less than the Immortal King of No End and the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation. Even the alien realm is quite wary of him.

Moreover, besides the True Dragon, the True Dragon Clan also has the second-best in the world, an extremely powerful Immortal King who was unfortunately defeated when he competed with the True Dragon King for the title of True Dragon.

In addition, there are two supreme immortal kings, Immortal Monk King and Immortal Golden Daoist, whose physical strength is also not to be underestimated.

Immortal Monk King was the leader of the Buddhist and Taoist sects in the ancient world. He focused on cultivating the physical body and was known as the invincible Golden Body. His physical body was incredibly strong, and ordinary Immortal Kings could not break through it. He was also extremely accomplished in the realm of reincarnation and was a supreme Immortal King.

Immortal Gold Daoist is also a Celestial King-level being, and his true form is suspected to be Yellow Dao Immortal Gold.

This is not one of the nine immortal metals that were later severed by the will of Heaven; it is true immortal metal, whose sturdiness is among the best of all immortal metals, and whose physical body far surpasses that of an ordinary immortal king.

These Celestial Kings possessed profound mastery of physical strength and exceptional power, making them the backbone of the ancient world.

Chu Tianshu was completely unfamiliar with this place. Even if he could find them, others might not be willing to guide him.

However, if the two ancient world leaders, the Immortal King of No End and the Immortal King of Six Paths of Reincarnation, endorse it, they will probably give it some face.

“Young friend Taiyi, it is rumored that the Heavenly Horned Ant King possesses a mysterious scripture. You may try to exchange it for it.”

"If one cultivates this scripture to its peak, one can make the physical body spiritual. Even if the primordial spirit is destroyed or scattered by others, the physical body will remain immortal and indestructible."

"There are even rumors that if one can cultivate this scripture to the Great Perfection stage, even if the primordial spirit is completely destroyed, the physical body can reconstruct the primordial spirit after a long period of time."

"The most important point is that the newly born primordial spirit still retains all its previous memories; it is not a new being."

"However, this is just a rumor. Even the Heavenly Horned Ant King was unable to cultivate this scripture to the Great Perfection level."

The Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King spoke slowly and deliberately, revealing a secret technique from the ancient realm. This was because he had a good relationship with the Heavenly Horned Ant King, which allowed him to know about this matter.

"No wonder the Heavenly Horned Ant King was able to fight against the True Dragon King with his physical body. It turns out that their clan has such a heaven-defying technique."

The Immortal King Wuzhong, who was standing to the side, was somewhat surprised, as this was the first time he had heard of such a thing.

After listening to the description of the Six Paths Reincarnation Immortal King, Chu Tianshu couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.

As expected of the ancient immortal era where Taoism flourished, there is such a heaven-defying technique. I just wonder if there is any chance to obtain this technique from the Heavenly Horned Ant King.

If one can truly cultivate it to the Great Perfection realm, it can be called immortal.

The next moment, two immortal gold tokens flew down from above the main hall. The front of each token bore the divine runes of the Great Dao of the Immortal King of No End and the Immortal King of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, respectively, while the back of each token bore the imprints of the Bell of No End and the Disc of the Six Paths of Reincarnation.

Deep within the Immortal Golden Token, there are two exceptionally powerful Dao paths. One seems to face the long river of time directly, while the other seems to be enacting the cycle of reincarnation and change, both quite extraordinary.

"These are our tokens, and they contain the locations of their respective dojos. I've already spoken to the True Dragon King and the others about your situation. Once the sermon is over, you can go and ask them for guidance yourself!"

The next moment, Chu Tianshu felt a blur before his eyes, and when he came to his senses again, he had already left the Chaos Palace.

"I didn't expect this trip to go so smoothly."

Chu Tianshu held the immortal gold token in his hand, his heart filled with joy.

Things went more smoothly than he had imagined. Not only did the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui resolve many of Chu Tianshu's doubts, they were also willing to introduce him to the True Dragon King and others, saving him a lot of trouble.

However, Chu Tianshu also understood that it wasn't that the Immortal King Wuzhong and the Immortal King Liudao Lunhui valued him that much.

If it weren't for his heroic act in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea, saving many geniuses from the ancient world, the two of them might not have put in such effort.

Every advantage has its disadvantages. Chu Tianshu's display of power in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea has inevitably brought him into the sights of the foreign lands, and he will inevitably be targeted by them in the future.

However, Chu Tianshu didn't care. Ever since he learned that the alien realm was born of an ominous force, the two sides would inevitably clash.

"Let's put all that aside for now. I wonder if Fellow Daoist Wang Huan has emerged from seclusion yet!"

There was still some time before the two Immortal Kings began their sermons, and Chu Tianshu wouldn't be able to comprehend anything significant in such a short time of seclusion. Therefore, he turned his attention to Wang Huan.

Unlike the physical body, the primordial spirit requires the cultivator to cultivate and improve it silently.

Among the kings of the ancient realm, only the Yuanheng Immortal King was particularly outstanding in the primordial spirit path, and he even created a sword technique that specialized in the primordial spirit.

Unfortunately, Immortal King Yuanheng had already passed away, so even if Chu Tianshu wanted to ask him for guidance, he couldn't find him.

Although Immortal King Yuanheng has passed away, the Primordial Spirit Sword Technique has been passed down.

Chu Tianshu wanted to have a conversation with Wang Huan to see if he could exchange the Primordial Spirit Sword Technique for it, in order to make up for his weak primordial spirit.

After all, the Primordial Spirit Sword Technique is not only extremely powerful in attack, but also uniquely advantageous in the cultivation of the Primordial Spirit, making it a culmination of the Primordial Spirit path.

If given the chance, Chu Tianshu would naturally not want to miss it.

Before long, a golden light appeared in front of Chu Tianshu.

"Not in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea?"

Looking at the message within the golden light, Chu Tianshu couldn't help but feel a little regretful.

Unlike himself, who was all alone, Wang Huan, as the son of the Immortal King, had a large family and business, and could not stay in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea for a long time.

Long before the Immortal King of the Otherworld retreated, Wang Huan led the younger generation of his clan back to the Wang family.

However, there is some good news: at least when the two Immortal Kings preach a hundred years later, Wang Huan will still come over.

It had only been about a hundred years, so Chu Tianshu didn't care too much.

Fortunately, the Three Pure Ones and some other quasi-immortal kings had not left and were still in the Purple Bamboo Forest.

In the time that followed, Chu Tianshu visited friends in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea while quietly waiting for the two Immortal Kings to preach.

Time flies, and a century has passed.

On this day, Chu Tianshu was fishing in the Purple Bamboo Forest of the South China Sea when suddenly, a series of melodious bell tolls came, as if carrying the great power of time, spreading throughout the universe.

Has the sermon begun?

Chu Tianshu's spirits lifted, and the next moment, he rushed towards the preaching location.
