Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds
Chapter 168 I joined forces with Wushi to suppress all enemies
Chapter 168 I joined forces with Wushi to suppress all enemies
The atmosphere at the sacred cliff was solemn and heavy, and a few crows perched on the ancient black trees at the edge, cawing incessantly as if foreshadowing something.
This place is ominous in every sense of the word.
As Qin Sheng and his group stepped inside, they became wary and on high alert.
Before encountering any danger, Ye Fan asked:
"The Great Accomplished Holy Body can challenge even the Great Emperor, and is invincible in heaven and earth. Why would it shed blood in its own arena?"
Throughout history, no one has ever lived forever, and true immortals never descend to the mortal realm. Everyone must die, and Ye Fan can accept this.
A fully developed Sacred Body can live for ten thousand years. If the elixir of immortality is found, one can live another lifetime, twenty thousand years! This is a time that Ye Fan, who has grown up to this point, can hardly imagine.
Ye Fan's ambitions are not high right now. He is already quite satisfied if he has the chance to live for 20,000 years in the future, and he will have no regrets if he dies peacefully in his old age.
But since the Holy Cliff Body died from bloodshed, it was clearly not from natural causes. The thought that even someone of this caliber could not have a good end made Ye Fan very alarmed.
He is also a member of the Holy Body; we feel compassion for one another.
Will I ever be like that in the future?
"This Great Accomplished Holy Body was probably taken advantage of by someone when his vital energy was declining in his later years," Qin Sheng explained.
In the world of Shrouding the Heavens, the state of a cultivator in their later years is completely different from that in their prime. The difference in strength is huge, and the decline of one's vital energy has a great impact on a person.
A hero grows old, a beauty turns gray – nothing could be more fitting.
Ultimately, it's the lack of longevity substances that's to blame. If one's body were constantly nourished by immortal essence, then even in old age, things wouldn't be like this.
"Even if his vital energy is depleted, he is still a fully-fledged holy body. What kind of expert could kill him?"
Ye Fan: "Could it be the current emperor?"
"The Great Emperor wouldn't resort to underhanded tactics against a fully-fledged Holy Body." The Black Emperor directly refuted Ye Fan's guess.
The Holy Body lineage has made great contributions and is already known as the Holy Body of the Human Race. The Emperor wouldn't stoop to such a low level.
"To put it another way, even if the current emperor and the Great Accomplished Holy Body have a life-or-death feud, there's really no need for a sneak attack," Qin Sheng added.
Which of the great emperors of this era doesn't firmly believe in their invincibility and unparalleled dominance, feeling that their combat power is enough to shatter the ages? They only lament that there are no gods or immortals in the nine heavens and ten earths, otherwise they would definitely fight against them.
The ancient emperors, in their first and second reigns, were in a state of lamenting that the heavens had no handle and the earth had no ring.
Who can defeat me? Who can match me?!
If there were another Great Accomplished Holy Body in the same generation, even if a battle were to take place, it would definitely be a battle of the highest order.
The Black Emperor made his own guess: "The Great Accomplished Holy Body intercepted this area from the Undying Mountain, possibly because it was resented by the beings in this forbidden zone of life."
"They were unwilling to confront the Great Accomplished Holy Body at its peak, so they chose to assassinate him in his later years."
"It should be about the same," Qin Sheng replied vaguely.
The Holy Cliff Holy Body died at the hands of the Supreme Undying Daoist of the Forbidden Zone, which shows that he remained unchanged in his bird-like nature.
"The later years of the Great Accomplished Holy Body are very strange and extremely turbulent. Ye Zi, you should prepare yourself mentally in advance."
The more glorious their prime years were, the more desolate their later years would be.
Even the strongest physical body, once invincible in heaven and earth, will eventually grow red hair, become muddled and confused, and even become prey for others.
Black Emperor remained silent, seemingly moved by Qin Sheng's words and remembering something.
The Western Empress's husband also encountered misfortune in his later years, and even though the Western Empress was the emperor of the time, she was powerless to help him.
The source of this ominous situation is not something a normal emperor can resolve, but the underworld is cunning. Once they are targeted by a Heavenly Emperor-level figure, they simply run away.
Once a forbidden zone of life disappears, even the Heavenly Emperor cannot find it.
Ye Fan smiled, "If I truly achieve great success one day, then I will not fear any demons or monsters."
"If you want to attack me, then come on."
"Brother will definitely be alright," the little girl said innocently, her words carrying the weight of gold.
The sacred cliff was shrouded in the Emperor's array patterns, making it impossible for them to fly; they could only walk.
"The Crimson Dragon Daoist was trapped here for 1,500 years before he finally escaped, and he was almost burned to death," Ye Fan said.
He had some interaction with this living fossil, and they had a good relationship.
To be precise, although Ye Fan was being hunted down by the various holy lands of the human race, the demon race of Yan Ruyu's lineage were all his friends.
"He's lucky he got out alive."
Black Emperor looked left and right, his eyes gleaming with an unparalleled confidence.
"But we don't need to worry. The array patterns here were not left by the Void Emperor, but by the Beginningless Emperor. For me, they are not nothing, but they are a piece of cake."
"I know this place well, come with me!"
I am the Emperor's dog. Come forth and fight with me!
Black King confidently took a step forward, but the next second, a bolt of lightning struck from a clear sky, landing squarely on Dead Dog.
Black King was struck and jumped up, its fur stood on end, black smoke billowed from its body, white foam came out of its mouth, and the whole dog twitched.
The sight of the Emperor's Electric Dog made Qin Sheng laugh out loud.
"It's definitely cooked."
"That's not right, why is the Great Emperor attacking me too? This doesn't make sense!" Black Emperor refused to believe it and tried again.
Boom!
It's about half-cooked now.
"Doggy, come back soon," Little Nannan said, concerned for Black King.
"Now I'm starting to doubt whether your relationship with the Great Emperor Wushi is real or not," Ye Fan said.
Black Emperor lay on the ground convulsing, unable to stand up for a moment.
This wasn't a fake chop; it was a real calamity, with many bones broken.
It was the old madman who stepped in and healed the Black Emperor's injuries, restoring him to his full vigor.
"I didn't go to the wrong place, so where did things go wrong?"
Black Emperor was extremely puzzled, "I have studied the Great Emperor's array patterns in detail!"
"What level of cultivation do you have? Even if the Great Emperor Wushi personally explained the array patterns to you, you still wouldn't be able to understand them all."
"But it's not a big problem. You only need to understand a little bit. It's not like you're going to personally inscribe the array patterns. There's no need to be so serious."
Qin Sheng laughed and said, "Anyway, you're tough and thick-skinned, so being chopped a couple of times won't hurt you. Lead the way."
"Woof! Your cultivation level is higher than mine, why don't you leave first?"
“Only you recognize the Boundless Array Pattern. If you don’t lead the way, who will? If we lead the way and directly trigger the Killing Array Pattern, then none of us will be able to escape.”
Qin Sheng: "The array patterns here are not like the Boundless Dao Power of the Myriad Spirits Holy Land, which would recognize you as a dog."
There is a big difference between the array patterns set up by Wushi and Wushi's own power. It's hard to say which is more terrifying, but the former is definitely more ruthless.
Black Emperor knew Qin Sheng was right. Even a dog like him, who only had a slight understanding of the Boundless Array Patterns, would be struck down if he tried his best to take the path to survival, let alone Qin Sheng and the others.
In situations like this, he's the only one who can step up.
The little girl wanted to speak, but Qin Sheng shook her, making her turn her back to the Black Emperor.
"I've really lost out this time. If I get any treasure, I'm going to take the lion's share... Ah!"
Black Emperor continued forward, muttering to himself, getting slashed every few steps. If it weren't for the old madman healing his injuries, he would have been electrocuted to death.
Boom!
Black Emperor was struck down again and could not get up.
"Awooo! Senior, save me!"
Qin Sheng wanted to laugh. Evil people need evil people to teach them a lesson, and when it comes to beating a dog, you really have to consider its owner.
During their journey along the sacred cliff, they naturally encountered many strange and powerful creatures.
But with the old madman by his side, all those troubles were easily resolved, which made Qin Sheng secretly think that relying on his parents was the right thing to do.
During this process, they also harvested many old medicinal herbs or divine resources, reaping a bountiful harvest.
Soon after, they saw a broken mountain, and Black King exclaimed in surprise.
"How did that place get destroyed? The Great Emperor left a seal there to suppress an incredibly terrifying creature. Could the seal have been broken?"
"What are you suppressing?" Ye Fan asked.
"How should I know?" Black Emperor rolled his eyes and continued:
"But he was a very powerful being. He fought the Great Emperor in the heavens for a full hour before he was defeated."
An hour may sound short, but Qin Sheng was very clear about its significance.
That's Wushi. Logically speaking, no one should be able to withstand more than a few moves from him. Being able to fight Wushi for an hour is definitely a feat to be proud of, representing extremely powerful strength.
"Why didn't the Great Emperor Wushi kill that creature directly, but instead chose to seal it?" Ye Fan wondered.
"Could it be that even the Great Emperor Wushi couldn't kill him?"
"How could that be? There is nothing in this world that even an emperor cannot kill."
As the number one fan of Emperor Wushi, Black Emperor naturally could not tolerate Ye Fan's questioning of Emperor Wushi.
"It was the Emperor who intentionally spared his life to keep him for other uses, do you understand? But so many years have passed, even if that creature really broke free of its seal, it is probably already dead, so there is no need to worry."
"I understand, I understand, let's keep going."
"No, no, I can't take it anymore." But Black King refused to move, lying on the ground and refusing to budge an inch.
If he gets hit by another blow, he'll really die.
Your Majesty, open your eyes and look! I am Xiao Hei! You've struck the wrong person!
You should have killed those two bastards next to me, the one surnamed Qin and the one surnamed Ye!
"You can take out the array patterns from Wushi and let us study them together. Maybe that way we can find a way out," Qin Sheng suggested.
"Woof! Why didn't you say anything just now?" Black King immediately turned over and stood up, staring at Qin Sheng with an unfriendly gaze.
"I didn't want you to misunderstand and think we were coveting the legacy of the Great Emperor Wushi." Qin Sheng said with a righteous expression.
It's definitely not because I wanted to watch the Imperial Array Electric Dog for a longer period of time.
The Black Emperor was furious and suspected that Qin Sheng had deliberately tricked him. In the end, he still handed over a piece of the Wushi Emperor Formation for everyone to study.
"Nannan, can you see anything from the array patterns around us?" Qin Sheng asked Nannan at this moment.
“It’s different from last time!” the little girl answered crisply.
"Woof! You Qin, you rascal, were you deliberately preventing Nannan from making a sound just now?"
The Black King reacted and immediately bit down.
"You damn dog, stop messing around, it's dangerous here."
The Great Emperor's array patterns were indeed incredibly profound. Even though this was only a corner of them, they were like a heavenly book. Fortunately, the old madman's realm was high enough that he was able to comprehend some of the secrets.
A few days later, he led the way, and they continued their journey. There was no more thunder that struck.
"I wonder who the true successor of the Great Emperor Wushi is," Ye Fan said sarcastically.
Black King couldn't take it anymore. If I can't bite that guy surnamed Qin, I can at least bite you.
Eat my mouth!
"Darling, do you think we can make it to the end?" Qin Sheng asked sadly. Our group has only just begun, how come it's already showing signs of falling apart?
They arrived at the outside of a valley, which was incredibly hot, with terrifying flames spewing out from it, enough to scorch the sky and boil the sea.
"This is the true fire of the sun. The Great Emperor said that it will never go out, and it will be purified and strengthened over time," the Black Emperor said.
Is the sun really hot? The sun, right?
Qin Sheng's eyes lit up. This thing was an excellent tonic for him, and it was very suitable for his version 1.1 of the Devouring Heaven Demon Art.
Qin Sheng immediately took action and collected a large amount of True Solar Fire. This action alarmed the creatures in the Fire Valley, and a million Fire God Crows appeared, covering the sky.
Each fire crow is incredibly powerful; they are not ordinary creatures, but rather born from the essence of the sun's fire, spirits of flame.
“Deep in the valley, there lives a three-legged bird,” the little girl whispered.
"Could it be a three-legged golden crow?!" Ye Fan exclaimed in surprise, immediately thinking of this sun bird from Earth's mythology.
"impossible."
Qin Sheng shook his head, "A true three-legged golden crow can rival a true dragon and a phoenix; it cannot be conceived in the human world."
In the past, during the chaotic ancient times, the immortal ancient times, and even earlier eras, the three-legged golden crow clan of the immortal realm had more than one immortal king, and the overall strength of the clan was even greater than that of the ten fierce beasts.
The three-legged golden crow's gaze fell in their direction, fixed on the little girl, and decisively made its move.
The old madman unleashed his power, sending it fleeing in disarray, leaving behind a few golden crow feathers.
"It's probably a Golden Crow at the Saint level," Qin Sheng exclaimed.
If he were a king, he would be killed by the old madman in a single encounter.
"Fortunately, we have seniors to take care of us." Ye Fan was also very grateful, feeling that going to Tianxuan with Qin Sheng to find the old madman was the wisest choice.
As they continued on their way, they passed a pond. The old madman glanced down at it and immediately stopped moving.
Qin Sheng noticed this and quickly went to pull the old madman away.
“This is the Lake of Reincarnation!” the old madman said in a deep voice.
"What?!" Black Emperor was shocked and quickly backed away with Little Nannan on his back.
"Don't look at it. It is one of the most mysterious substances in history. Legend has it that it can reflect a person's past and future. Once you look at it, it will affect your current state and may even cause unpredictable and strange changes."
"It is as famous as Feixian Waterfall and Shenhuntan, two other substances."
Ye Fan was shocked. "Can he see the past and future? Is it true?"
"It's true, this Lake of Reincarnation is very strange."
Qin Sheng gazed at the pond from afar, showing no intention of trying it out.
The Lake of Reincarnation is actually a substance left behind when the Underworld Emperor underwent his transformation. Once viewed, it will become tainted by strange karma, and great turmoil will follow in the future.
That's right, it's Duan De's doing again.
Even if Qin Sheng were extremely confident, he would never come into contact with something like that.
The power of the Underworld Emperor wouldn't grant Qin Sheng and Duan De any special treatment just because they know each other and are good brothers.
The dead are heartless.
However, if it is powerful enough, then this Lake of Reincarnation is also a great treasure that can be used to kill enemies with excellent results.
The group crossed the Lake of Reincarnation and continued forward until they finally arrived at the deepest part of the Sacred Cliff.
There is a colossal mountain that reaches the sky; it is blood-red, and you can even smell the blood.
This mountain is the true sacred cliff.
"There's a stone coffin on the mountaintop, and a golden ancient scroll on the other side of the mountain," Qin Sheng said, gazing into the distance.
"That's the Emperor's Investiture of the Gods!"
Black Emperor exclaimed in surprise, "How did this thing get here? When did this happen? Why don't I know about it?"
"It must have been done by the Great Emperor Wushi while you were sleeping," Qin Sheng said with absolute certainty.
The Black Emperor had only been with Wu Shi for a short time, and there were many things he didn't know.
He doesn't understand Wushi as well as Qin Sheng.
"Is this the Investiture of the Gods that I've heard of, the one used to confer titles upon deities?" Ye Fan was also surprised.
How come treasures from ancient Chinese mythology are also found here?
"No," Qin Sheng replied in the negative.
"This is a sealed treasure, personally crafted by the Great Emperor Wushi. The Investiture of the Gods being posted here is equivalent to the Great Emperor Wushi personally suppressing it on the Sacred Cliff."
For Wushi at that time, his power was truly invincible, and there was no one in the world who could rival him.
"Originally, the Great Emperor wanted to forge a treasure to seal the immortals. At first, he wanted to name it the Immortal Sealing List, but there were no immortals in the mortal world to be sealed."
The Black Emperor said proudly, "But there are ancient legends of gods, so this treasure was renamed the Investiture of the Gods."
The name "Wu Shi Chu Shi Fa Sui" (无始言出法随) is truly fitting; it has now truly sealed away the gods.
"Also, once you're on this mountain of blood, be careful not to go the wrong way," Black Emperor emphasized solemnly.
"The array patterns on it are different from those elsewhere. They are the most terrifying. Once triggered, it's like being struck by the Great Emperor. We will surely die."
Even the old madman would be reduced to ashes with a single palm strike from the Great Emperor. If this were to actually happen, then the only hope would be for the "sister" sleeping inside the Devouring Demon's lid to save him.
"What exactly happened to the Great Accomplished Holy Body back then? Its blood stained a giant mountain red..." Ye Fan was lost in thought.
When the Holy Body is partially perfected, the blood will turn golden, but upon reaching the Great Perfection, it will revert to its original state and revert to red blood.
"That kind of person, a single drop of their blood could shatter a galaxy, they are beyond comprehension."
The group climbed the mountain, where the dangers were even more terrifying. Even the old madman dared not be careless and was extremely cautious.
They arrived near the Investiture of the Gods and examined the engravings on both sides of the weapon.
They were a monk and an old man riding an ox, whose auspicious purple aura seemed to be coming from the east.
"Both Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu came here?" Ye Fan was extremely shocked.
"You know these two old bastards?" Black King asked angrily.
"They have absolutely no sense of public morality! They don't know how to respect the Great Emperor at all, and they actually carved their images on the Investiture of the Gods! If I don't catch them, I'll bite them to death!"
“In our hometown, they are legendary figures.”
Qin Sheng said, "It seems that after leaving their hometown, they crossed the starry sky and came to the Big Dipper, but they should have already left."
"The Big Dipper from another ancient planet with life? How come your home planet is so terrifying? Wasn't it supposed to be very ordinary...?"
The Black Emperor raised his voice, then dared not utter any more words about biting Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu, and spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Only if the Great Emperor Wushi were alive would he have had the opportunity to bite someone of such power.
At the summit of Sacred Cliff, a barren land devoid of life, a stone coffin over a hundred feet long hangs on the precipice, drawing everyone's attention.
Upon closer inspection, a horrifying scene unfolded before their eyes.
Green hairs sprouted from the stone coffin, emanating a cold and eerie aura that sent chills down one's spine.
"Has the corpse of the Great Accomplished Holy Body turned into a zombie?"
This is a terrifying conjecture; if such a person were to commit evil deeds, almost no one in heaven or earth could stop him.
But the secret map of the Xingzi character ultimately points to the location of this coffin.
Shakyamuni and Lao Tzu also arrived near the stone coffin, leaving their marks and starry sky carvings.
Judging from the freshness of the carvings, this is something from more than two thousand years ago.
"Emperor Wushi once visited Sacred Cliff to pay homage and reminisce about the glory of his predecessors, so there shouldn't be any problems," the Black Emperor said uncertainly.
But no matter how bizarre or terrifying it may be, it still comes down to this:
Come here.
Qin Sheng stared at the stone coffin, there was one thing he couldn't figure out.
Why does this Great Accomplished Holy Body have green hair instead of red hair?
After careful observation, the old madman opened the stone coffin, and boundless killing intent surged out, as if to destroy everything.
Fortunately, the Investiture of the Gods shook, and golden rays fell, covering the stone coffin and suppressing everything.
Emperor Wushi truly considered everything thoroughly and eliminated all potential risks as much as possible.
A Dao diagram flew out of the stone coffin, consisting of nine layers; this was the secret of the character "行".
"Quickly comprehend it, don't let the senior hold on for too long," Qin Sheng said, his eyes fixed on the Dao diagram without blinking.
This is a peerless secret technique, and it is not easy to cultivate. However, Qin Sheng is no ordinary person, and he comprehended it smoothly, memorizing each engraved image.
"No, no, this is a secret technique created for two-legged creatures. I'm a dog, I have four legs, how am I supposed to get started?"
After some contemplation, the Black Emperor discovered this maddening fact.
This is simply making things difficult for me, a fat dog!
"You won't let me learn it? I'll learn it anyway! You think a secret technique can stump me, Black Emperor!"
Black Emperor, in a fit of rage, stood upright.
"From now on, I will walk on two legs, just like the humans. The Secret of Walking, here I come!"
Ye Fan was stunned; this dog was truly the best of the best.
But surprisingly, this actually helped the Black Emperor understand some of the tricks of the trade, and he gradually mastered the secret techniques.
It's true that as long as you don't give up, there will always be more solutions than problems.
Inside the stone coffin was a pool of blood, on which floated the body of an old sage. He had been killed by having his neck twisted, and he was holding a golden scepter in his hand.
"This is the Great Accomplished Sacred Body?"
"Obviously not, he must have been killed by the corpse of the Great Accomplished Holy Body."
Qin Sheng stared at the scepter and said, "This person is probably the master of the Heavenly Court, who didn't die in the siege of the Holy Land, but came here with the Heavenly Court scepter and the Xingzi Secret Manual."
A corpse that strangled a sage of the path of killing to death—this is undoubtedly a ghost story.
An even more bizarre thing happened: the corpse of the Great Accomplished Holy Body, covered in green hair, crawled out of the coffin, its eyes shining with divine light, staring at Ye Fan.
Black Emperor and his men were under immense pressure, fearing they might die there, while Qin Sheng remained remarkably calm.
He believed in the Great Emperor Wushi.
With the combined strength of Wu Shi and myself, we are enough to suppress the entire Holy Cliff!
At this moment, Ye Fan's body underwent a change. Surging waves and golden light burst forth from his body, and a blue lotus flew out from his sea of consciousness and entered the corpse of the Great Perfection Holy Body.
Ye Fan regained consciousness and was able to sense everything inside the corpse in front of him.
The Eucharist is the bond that strangles generation after generation.
Just like last time with the Azure Dragon King, Ye Fan obtained a more complete, single-realm cultivation method exclusive to the Sacred Body, which also encompasses the five major realms.
The Heavenly Scepter, this sealed holy weapon, was also something he acquired incidentally.
After Ye Fan's consciousness was forced out of the corpse, the remains did not lie back in the coffin. Instead, they continued to stare at Ye Fan, their aura becoming increasingly unpredictable, and even their eyes began to shine.
The corpse of the Great Accomplished Sacred Body finally spoke, saying to Ye Fan:
“My descendants, I am your ancestor.”
Ye Fan: “?”
