The Heavenly Emperor of Chu

Chapter 42 Eight Thousand Years

"Continue to comprehend!"

Chu Tianshu closed his eyes and continued to comprehend the mystery.

The gains from this analysis of the myriad principles of heaven and earth far exceeded his expectations, and it will take a considerable amount of time to fully absorb them.

The study of the evolution path of the Azure Sky Overlord Body did not actually waste much time, after all, Chu Tianshu had already established the framework for that path and verified its theoretical feasibility.

Chu Tianshu only needs to deduce the specific methods.

In the following period, Chu Tianshu mainly focused on improving his cultivation level.

He had a vague feeling that if he could absorb all the insights he gained from this experience, the rewards would be no less than directly experiencing a second life transformation.

This would definitely allow him to take another big step forward in his position as the Heavenly Emperor.

Even if he is not as good as the Immortal Emperor, the difference will not be too great.

Moreover, he could live a second life at any time, so if someone were to make a move during his old age, he would definitely be able to give them a big surprise.

Time flies like water, and in the blink of an eye, eight thousand years have passed since Chu Tianshu went into seclusion.

Eight thousand years have passed; in the mortal realm, that would be enough for dozens of dynasties to rise and fall.

Talented men and beautiful women, emperors and generals—all have been buried in the passage of time.

The environment of the human world and the universe has also undergone earth-shattering changes.

As Chu Tianshu severed the Great Dao of the past, causing the Great Dao to rapidly complete its replacement, the human universe also ushered in a dramatic change.

The essence of heaven and earth is rapidly recovering, and the myriad paths of heaven and earth are no longer suspended in the air. It seems that the human world and the universe have ushered in a brand new era.

After being suppressed for over 100,000 years, the world is rapidly recovering, and all kinds of rare resources are springing up like mushrooms after rain, no longer as silent as in the difficult times.

At the same time, the myriad paths of heaven and earth no longer reject or suppress cultivators' comprehension.

In the past, as the old and new roads changed, they clashed and collided with each other in the heavens.

This makes the myriad paths obscure and difficult to understand, making it extremely challenging for cultivators to comprehend them.

Now that the Great Dao has been replaced, the laws are no longer as obscure as before, and the difficulty of comprehending them has been greatly reduced.

Eight thousand years have passed, and the human world has been completely revived, freed from the suppression of the myriad paths of heaven and earth during the era of hardship.

A new era has arrived for all living beings in the human realm. Countless geniuses from the ancient races have risen to prominence during this era, giving birth to countless unimaginable prodigies.

Unfortunately, when these geniuses of the ancient races reached the final imperial pass, they discovered that the Heavenly Heart Mark was already hanging high in the sky.

An extremely domineering imperial figure stood above the heavens, overlooking the ever-changing world throughout the ages.

Some geniuses from all races refused to give up and chose to defy the heavens and break through the barriers, but unfortunately most of them died and their cultivation dissipated.

How could they possibly break through the Great Dao suppression of a Heavenly Emperor-level figure?

Breaking through the Great Dao suppression of a Heavenly Emperor-level figure head-on is something even the future Heavenly Emperor Ye could not do.

Unless one is a legendary Chaos Body, capable of ignoring the suppression of the Great Dao and attaining the Chaos Emperor's Throne.

Unfortunately, no Chaos Entity was born in this era.

Moreover, with such an unparalleled Heavenly Emperor presiding over this world, even chaotic beings dare not show their faces, and the old myths might just repeat themselves.

At the same time, during the rise of the ancient races, the human race was also rapidly rising, such as Chu Liufeng, the grandson of Chu Tianshu.

Taking advantage of the opportunity of the revival of heaven and earth, and with the help of the "Taiyi Ancient Scripture" passed down by Chu Tianshu, Chu Liufeng began to rise rapidly.

In a very short time, he broke through numerous shackles and stepped into the realm of quasi-emperors.

After all, he was able to reach the level of a sage during a time of great hardship, which naturally shows that he was exceptionally talented.

With the addition of the "Taiyi Ancient Scripture" which is extremely compatible with his own physique, reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm is naturally not difficult.

Unlike the other ancient geniuses, Chu Liufeng did not risk breaking through after reaching the ninth level of Quasi-Emperor.

Outsiders may not know how powerful the Great Emperor is, but surely he, who cultivates the Great Emperor's Ancient Scripture, knows?
Even after thousands of years of painstaking study, his understanding of the *Taiyi Ancient Scripture* was merely superficial. The true essence of the Imperial Scripture was simply beyond his comprehension.

The same is true of the Taiyin God Cult and the Taiyang God Cult. In fact, over the past eight thousand years, each of the two cults has produced a Taiyang body and a Taiyin body.

Although not as good as the sun god body and moon god body of our ancestors, it is still extremely rare.

Furthermore, with the revival of the ancient emperor's bloodline within him, he was only slightly weaker than the ancient emperor's own son, and thus also established a formidable reputation in this era.

Tianji Ancient Star, Chu Family.

Inside the main hall, an old man with a withered face waved his hand, signaling the Chu family disciple who had delivered the message to leave.

"Eight thousand years have passed since the Great Emperor began to pacify the chaos of the world."

"If the Emperor doesn't show himself soon, I'm afraid I won't be able to see him one last time."

This withered-looking old man was none other than Chu Liufeng.

Eight thousand years have passed, and his lifespan has long since exceeded ten thousand, approaching the limit of twelve thousand.

If it weren't for his profound cultivation and the Heavenly Overlord Body that allows him to return to his origins, he would have long since turned into a handful of dust.

But even so, he had reached his limit.

"It's a pity I couldn't achieve what my ancestors did and push the Heavenly Tyrant Body to the flawless realm, otherwise I could have lasted another one or two thousand years." Chu Liufeng sighed deeply.

The so-called flawless realm is naturally a further step on the basis of the Great Accomplishment of the Overlord Body, reaching the realm of flawless purple blood.

This was deduced by Chu Tianshu based on the flawless crimson blood of the Perfect Holy Body, and recorded in the "Taiyi Ancient Scripture".

However, only Chu Tianshu has been able to complete the Flawless Purple Blood step.

"Ancestor, the Yin King and the Sun King have arrived together and are waiting outside the Chu Family Mountain Gate!"

Just as Chu Liufeng was feeling sentimental, a disciple of the Chu family entered the main hall.

"The Moon King, the Sun King?"

Why would those two suddenly visit the Chu family?

Chu Liufeng was somewhat puzzled, but he still dared not be negligent and immediately went out of the main hall to greet them.

Before long, Chu Liufeng saw two imposing figures outside the mountain gate.

A figure, like the blazing sun in the heavens, exuded an aura of extreme strength and yang energy. This energy was so intense that it seemed capable of turning everything in the world to ashes, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at him.

Another figure was like the bright moon in the sky, surrounded by an extremely yin and cold yin energy, as if the surrounding space was frozen, making people tremble all over.

These two were the prodigies of the time when the Sun God Sect and the Moon God Sect were founded: Sun King Yao Hao and Moon King Si Yue.

"Yao Hao (Si Yue) greets senior!"

Upon seeing Chu Liufeng, the two bowed respectfully in unison.

Seeing this, Chu Liufeng quickly went over and helped the two of them up.

“Sun King, Moon King, we are both beings of the same level, why be so polite?”

"Senior, you flatter us. We are just juniors, and this is only to be expected."

"The Moon King Si Yue said solemnly, and the Sun King Yao Hao echoed her words."

Before long, the group returned to the main hall.

Inside the main hall, Chu Liufeng looked at the handsome man and woman with envy in his eyes.

“You two fellow Daoists are truly enviable, still in your prime.”

"Unlike me, I'm already a piece of rotten wood, and I might pass away at any time."
