The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 237 Immortal Treasure Map

Regardless of what people speculated, the Chu family of Tianji Ancient Star never interfered with that prodigy's tribulation.

A great emperor is someone that other forces in the mortal world would naturally look up to, but for the Chu family, he is not worth paying too much attention to.

Although Yu Hua's performance was good, it was only good. Even if he successfully attained enlightenment, the Chu family was confident that they could suppress him.

Moreover, since his birth, he has not explicitly expressed any intention to oppose the Chu family, so the Chu family naturally let him be.

Before long, the tribulation lightning at the edge of the universe completely dissipated. That prodigy successfully passed the tribulation of attaining enlightenment, merging his Great Dao into the Heavenly Heart Imprint.

In an instant, people felt a powerful and overwhelming force hanging high in the sky, suppressing everything.

A new emperor has been born, and the next 20,000 years will be the stage for this new emperor.

Emperor of Feathered Ascension, this is the new emperor's title, named after his own physique, hoping that he could ascend to immortality.

On the edge of the universe, a majestic figure stands tall, his aura vast and powerful, a single wisp of which is enough to shake the world and shatter the endless starry sky.

Around him, layers upon layers of feathers swayed, exuding an otherworldly aura, as if he were about to ascend to immortality.

"Didn't the Chu family interfere?" Yu Hua's eyes were deep, and he let out a long sigh of relief.

Although he knew in his heart that the Chu family would most likely not interfere, who could say for sure? If they did intervene, not only would all his efforts be in vain, but even his own survival would become a major problem.

Fortunately, the Chu family did not take action against him in the end, otherwise Yu Hua really wouldn't know how to deal with it.

"Let's go back to the Feathered Starfield first!"

Yu Hua withdrew his gaze and decided to return to the Yu Hua Star Region first.

The next moment, a brilliant golden road appeared, traversing the cosmos, without him concealing his form.

Although Yu Hua did not intend to re-establish the Heavenly Court, he was prepared to build a powerful force that would rule the world. After all, he was not alone; he still had many relatives and friends in his clan.

Unlike the Killing Emperor or the Source Emperor, who are all alone, I have already attained enlightenment, so naturally, when one person attains enlightenment, even their chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Therefore, he displayed his power without reservation, showing the world the majesty of an emperor, in preparation for ruling the world in the future.

The effect was naturally excellent; wherever Yu Hua passed, there were resounding cheers and shouts of admiration.

Before long, a vibrant green ancient star appeared in Yu Hua's eyes. He withdrew his aura and stepped into it.

"Greetings, Emperor Yuhua!"

"Greetings, Emperor Yuhua!"

With a wave of his hand, Yu Hua unleashed an immense divine power that helped the elderly men in front of him to their feet.

"No need for formalities. Yu Hua's success today is thanks to the clan's support."

These words truly came from Yu Hua's heart. The clan played a significant role in his rapid rise to power, prioritizing him with countless resources and providing him with substantial assistance.

He even brought out many treasures from the former Heavenly Court to support his ascension. Otherwise, it would have taken him some time to achieve enlightenment.

"Your Majesty, you are too kind. Your attainment of the Dao was largely due to your own efforts, and the support from the clan was merely icing on the cake." The leading elder shook his head.

How easy is it to cultivate a person who has attained enlightenment? Resources are secondary; the key is whether that person has the talent and aptitude to attain enlightenment. Otherwise, it is just a waste of resources.

Since the collapse of the Mythical Heavenly Court, their lineage has not failed to cultivate prodigies to compete for the path to the Emperor, but most of them are mediocre, and very few even reach the ultimate Emperor Gate, let alone prove the Dao and become Emperor.

It wasn't until they ascended to immortality that their lineage truly rose to prominence, producing a Dao-proving being.

“Since the Great Emperor has already attained enlightenment, he is the most legitimate successor of the Heavenly Court and should rightfully inherit the position of Lord of the Heavenly Court,” another elder said.

Upon hearing this, the surrounding tribesmen became excited, their faces flushed.

If the Feathered Emperor truly inherits the position of Lord of Heaven, these people will also rise in rank and obtain official positions in the Heavenly Court that will rule the world in the future, with the possibility of further advancement.

Yu Hua looked at the expectant gazes around him and immediately snorted coldly.

In an instant, the surrounding clansmen felt an overwhelming pressure rushing towards them, and their minds were severely damaged, turning their faces pale.

Yu Hua's face darkened. He hadn't expected his clansmen to be so stubborn. Rebuilding the Heavenly Court was one thing, but to even have the audacity to think of making him the new ruler of the Heavenly Court was another.

Whether the Emperor is dead or not is still a question. If he rashly claims to be the ruler of the Heavenly Court, the first person who will not let him go will probably be the Emperor, and the second will be the Chu family.

Although he has already attained enlightenment, neither the Emperor nor the Chu family are people he can contend with at this moment. He might very well become the shortest-lived emperor in the world.

"Anyone who dares to speak of establishing a Heavenly Court again shall be executed!"

Upon hearing these words, everyone present changed their expressions drastically. Some wanted to speak, but seeing the Emperor Yu Hua's gloomy face, they dared not continue.

After a long while, the elder in the lead finally spoke again. "Since the Great Emperor is unwilling to re-establish the Heavenly Court, we have no choice but to act according to his orders. However, our clan possesses a treasure from the Heavenly Court that might be of some help to the Great Emperor."

The old man spoke, then took out an ancient-looking picture book from his robes and handed it to the Feathered Emperor.

"This treasure is the Immortal Treasure Map that our ancestors brought out from the Heavenly Court in the past. It is an unparalleled treasure of the Heavenly Court, and it records the Kunlun Immortal Mountain where the Emperor refined the Immortal Cauldron."

"Legend has it that Kunlun Immortal Mountain holds the secret to becoming an immortal. One must possess a map of immortal treasures to freely enter and exit. Otherwise, even a Great Emperor cannot enter Kunlun Immortal Mountain," the old man said helplessly.

Initially, they had sent people into Kunlun Immortal Mountain, but before they could even get close to the ancient star, they were driven out by the experts of the ancient star.

The ancient star of the Primordial World is home to many experts, with quasi-emperors guarding Hangu Pass year-round. In addition, there is an imperial formation that surrounds the ancient star of the Primordial World, so even supreme beings may not be able to force their way in.

The Kunlun remnants of Feixian Star are a case in point. Ever since they were expelled by the Emperor, they have longed to return to the ancient star and the Kunlun Immortal Mountain.

Unfortunately, they were blocked outside Hangu Pass by experts from the ancient primordial star, and even the Supreme Being's intervention was of no use.

However, now that the Feathered Emperor has attained enlightenment, everything is no longer a problem. A peak-stage Emperor is far superior to a remnant Supreme.

"The Immortal Treasures Map?"

Yu Hua's eyes narrowed as he took the Immortal Treasure Map from the old man's hand. This map was made of an unknown material. Yu Hua had unleashed an unparalleled divine power, but found that he could not even budge the Immortal Treasure Map.

Soon, his gaze was drawn to the dense lines on the Immortal Treasures Map.

"This...this is the coordinates of ancient life-bearing planets across the universe, including some from the last few hundred thousand years?"

The Feathered Emperor was somewhat surprised. As far as he knew, hundreds of thousands of years ago, when the Supreme Heavenly Emperor made his last appearance in the human world, the entire human realm began to expand rapidly, with many new star fields appearing and the positions of the old star fields undergoing tremendous changes.

However, this catalog accurately records the locations of all ancient life-bearing stars in the present day, without the slightest error or omission.

"As expected of someone with the title 'immortal,' truly extraordinary," the Feathered Emperor exclaimed in admiration.

Such methods are beyond the reach of the human realm; the Immortal Treasure Map must have been created by a true immortal, otherwise it would not be so miraculous.

"That's right. No matter how the world changes, the Immortal Treasure Map will automatically adjust itself to correspond with the outside world. Moreover, the Immortal Treasure Map is made of special materials, even surpassing the Supreme Emperor Weapon."

"If the Immortal Treasure Map had offensive capabilities, it would probably be no less powerful than those immortal artifacts in the mortal realm."

Yu Hua nodded slightly. He had already realized the extraordinary nature of the Immortal Treasure Map after the recent probing. It truly deserved to be one of the treasures of the Heavenly Court.

"Alright, I'll accept this."

"Go and prepare yourselves. A thousand years from now, our entire clan will relocate to the ancient star of the Big Dipper. I will establish a supreme divine dynasty there that will rule the entire world." Yu Hua waved his hand, dismissing his clansmen.

Although he did not want to re-establish the Heavenly Court, Yu Hua felt it was still necessary to establish a divine dynasty that would rule the world.

However, since the purpose of the Divine Dynasty is to rule the human world, it would be somewhat inappropriate to establish it in the Feathered Star Region.

Although this place is also prosperous, it is far inferior to those ancient life-bearing stars that are famous throughout the world, and cannot fully reveal the majesty of the divine dynasty.

In the entire human realm, there are only a handful of ancient stars suitable for establishing a rule over the universe: the Big Dipper, the Heavenly Pivot, the Purple Star, the Primordial Star, and the Flying Immortal Star.

The ancient star of the Big Dipper is known as the Burial Star of Emperors. Many enlightened beings are buried here, and many have also emerged from here. It is considered a very important place in the eyes of the world and is an ideal place.

Tianji Ancient Star was the Chu family's private territory; establishing the Feathered Divine Dynasty there was tantamount to courting death.

The ancient star of Ziwei is the territory of two major religions. If the Feathered Divine Dynasty were established on the ancient star of Ziwei, the people there would probably only know about the two major religions and not about the Feathered Divine Dynasty.

There's no need to elaborate on the ancient star of the primordial wilderness; it's an unparalleled treasure land with the Kunlun Immortal Mountain, but it's still far from being established, so it's not suitable to build on the ancient star of the primordial wilderness.

Needless to say, Feixian Ancient Star is mostly inhabited by the remnants of the Kunlun clan or other alien races, so building there would be a thankless and arduous task.

It was fine while it was alive, but once it passed away, the Feathered Divine Dynasty would probably be destroyed in an instant.

Besides, although other ancient stars have also produced Dao Prodigies, they are far from meeting the conditions for ascension.

In the blink of an eye, a thousand years have passed.

Deep within a grand hall, a majestic figure sat cross-legged, surrounded by fluttering celestial feathers, exuding an aura of ascension to immortality, as if about to transform into a god, dazzling and extraordinary.

The next moment, countless celestial feathers suddenly contracted and merged into the majestic figure.

"A thousand years have passed, and I have finally stabilized my Dao Fruit." The Feathered Emperor opened his eyelids, his tone deep and melancholy.

"After establishing the Feathered Divine Dynasty, let's go to the ancient star of the Primordial World and see what secrets Kunlun Immortal Mountain holds."

As Yu Hua looked at the Immortal Treasure Map in his hand, his gaze grew increasingly profound.
