Immortal Demonic Path

Chapter 262 A Drop of Dao Blood Surpasses Celestial Immortals!

"Lying high above the nine layers of clouds, I attain the true Dao on my futon. Beyond the mysteries of heaven and earth, I shall be the supreme master."

From chaos arose Taiji, from which Yin and Yang and the Four Symbols followed. One Dao was passed down to three friends, and two teachings emerged: Buddhism and Demonism. The Great Dao leads all, and the One Qi transforms into longevity.

Celestial music filled the air, and the chaotic energy permeated the surroundings. The boundless Dao intertwined, as if the ancient Dao had been revived.

In a daze, Huang Chenghu saw the endless Great Dao and an ancient being who had crossed the ancient past.

An ancient and majestic figure, where countless paths converge, eternally immortal.

In the void, dragons and phoenixes cried out in unison, immortals, demons, and Buddhas sang of immortality, and countless ancient demons submitted.

"I am the Ancestor of the Dao of Immortality!"

An extreme tremor came from the depths of his soul, causing him to involuntarily kneel down, his heart filled with horror.

Such power, such a great Dao, even the Heavenly Emperor Huangyu does not possess such power.

The Ancestor of Immortality?

  

The mentor of the Sun Emperor?

"No, impossible! How could you possibly be the Ancestor of Immortality?!"

As a high-ranking general of the Heavenly Court, how could he not know the information about the Heavenly Emperors of all generations, especially the Sun Emperor who once saved the Heavenly Court?

Respect the Ancestor of the Longevity Dao as your master!

That was such an ancient time, even beings surpassing celestial beings couldn't possibly be alive today!

"It seems you know me." Li Changsheng looked down at Huang Chenghu with an indifferent expression. "Then, have you seen my snake?"

"what?"

Huang Chenghu was stunned. The snake of the Longevity Dao Ancestor?

"Her name is Bai Xian'er. She returned from the path to immortality long ago," Li Changsheng said calmly.

"No, I don't know." Huang Chenghu was completely flustered, his mind went blank, and he responded mechanically.

Li Changsheng sighed softly. The Heavenly General didn't know. It seemed he could only seek out higher-ranking Heavenly Court personnel.

"I know."

A faint sound rang out.

"Hmm?" Li Changsheng turned around and saw Yun Luo from Tianyun Kingdom: "Little girl, have you met Bai Xian'er before?"

Yun Luo's heart skipped a beat, but she mustered her courage and asked, "Is it... a white snake?"

"That's right, she's a white snake." Li Changsheng nodded and asked, "Where have you seen her before?"

"I've heard my grandfather mention that the Northern Daoist Sect, specifically the Jade Profound Daoist, possesses a snake scale, said to be from an ancient white snake, Bai Xian'er," Yun Luo said.

"Northern Daoist sect? Scales?"

Li Changsheng's expression turned cold. Although he knew that Bai Xian'er might not live to see this era, hearing about her scales still made him tremble.

"Dao Ancestor, the Jade Profound Daoist of the Northern Dao Sect is a celestial official of the Heavenly Court, and he usually cultivates in the Northern Dao Sect."

Yunlu quickly replied.

Li Changsheng nodded slightly, then looked at Huang Chenghu: "Your talent is not bad either, surpassing even your ancestors. Why then do you resort to such methods to pursue the path of immortality?"

Huang Chenghu was taken aback. He realized that his plans had already been thoroughly understood by the Dao Ancestor.

No wonder this secret realm has changed; it's all the work of the Dao Ancestor!

He said bitterly, "I have been at the peak of immortality for a thousand years. My contemporaries either passed away or became wandering immortals. There is nothing I can do."

"Do you know who your ancestors were?" Li Changsheng asked calmly.

"No, I don't know." Huang Chenghu shook his head and said, "The Huang family I was born into, although it has some influence, is only in the Xuanhuang Realm. Moreover, there is no family genealogy to pass down, and no one in the family has become an immortal. They are all stuck at the Ascension Realm."

"Are they all stuck in the Ascension Realm?"

Li Changsheng frowned slightly, raised his right palm, and Huang Chenghu's Dao Yuan erupted, revealing Dao patterns.

"Dao Ancestor..." Huang Chenghu's expression changed. He had completely lost control of his cultivation level.

"I see." Li Changsheng examined his Dao patterns and shook his head slightly: "Who tampered with your methods and removed the most essential elements? It's not easy to achieve immortality."

"My Huang family's secret methods have been tampered with?" Huang Chenghu was shocked and furious. His Huang family's ancestral secret methods were actually incomplete?

"Your ancestors did not become immortals."

Li Changsheng said calmly, "As for bloodline, after refinement and with the help of inherited methods, it is not difficult to become an immortal in this era."

"Then, then my Huang family's methods..."

Huang Chenghu's eyes were filled with hope. Could this Dao Ancestor of Longevity be related to their Huang family's cultivation method?

"Although I had no connection with your ancestors, I did have some dealings with the lineage of Heaven."

Li Changsheng flicked his finger, and a stream of light flew toward Huang Chenghu: "Today I will give you the Yellow Heaven Dao Scripture, which can be considered a matter of fate."

The Yellow Heaven Dao Scripture!

Huang Chenghu is a descendant of the Yellow Heaven Saint Son, but he remembers that the Yellow Heaven Saint Son was killed by Yang Wushang.

But now, his bloodline has been passed down and refined through special means, making it pure and easier for him to cultivate the Heavenly Dao.

It must have been arranged by someone later to pass on the bloodline, but for some reason, the Yellow Heaven Dao Scripture was not fully passed down.

Huang Chenghu obtained the Yellow Heaven Dao Scripture, and its profound contents gave him a jolt, revealing an opportunity to become an immortal.

"Thank you for this method, Dao Ancestor. Thank you for this method, Dao Ancestor."

Huang Chenghu excitedly kowtowed repeatedly, believing that as long as he switched to cultivating the Yellow Heaven Dao Scripture, he would definitely become a wandering immortal, and not just an ordinary one!

Li Changsheng said calmly, "Consider this my way of making amends to your ancestor."

"Compensation?" Huang Chenghu was taken aback.

"Your ancestor, the Holy Son of Yellow Heaven, fought against my disciple Yang Wushang, was defeated and perished, and became the Great Emperor of the Sun."

"Letting you meet me this time can be considered the end of this fate," Li Changsheng said calmly.

Huang Chenghu was startled. Instead of feeling angry or aggrieved, he felt a sense of pride.

Our ancestors were once rivals of the Sun Emperor!

Although they were defeated and perished, it also proved that their ancestors were beings of that level!

"Little girl, I will wait for you."

Li Changsheng spoke calmly, then his figure transformed into a streak of light and disappeared.

"Yes, Dao Ancestor." Yun Luo's face lit up with joy; his chance had come!

Huang Chenghu's gaze toward Yun Luo was also full of goodwill: "Alright, you've all passed the test. Come with me, General."

With a wave of his hand, he took all the cultivators away.

Li Changsheng had already left, standing in the void, looking down below.

He didn't go directly to the Northern Dao Sect, since he hadn't figured out the situation yet and it was better to be cautious.

When Huang Chenghu becomes an immortal, perhaps we can learn more information through his help.

Li Hao, Ao Yue, and Zhang Yue also left.

Huang Chenghu could clearly see the true fire of the sun emanating from their bodies.

He saw them then, and these three were right next to the Longevity Dao Ancestor; they might have some kind of relationship.

After leaving the heavenly soldiers to handle the remaining matters, Huang Chenghu led the four of them away and returned to the capital of Tianyun Kingdom ahead of them.

He waved away his attendants and then set up a protective barrier.

Huang Chenghu looked at them solemnly: "You should know what this general wants to ask."

"Does the general want to ask about the Ancestor of Immortality?" Ao Yue asked.

"Indeed." Huang Chenghu nodded and said, "As a Grand General of the Heavenly Court, I have seen the existence of the Ancestor of Longevity in ancient books. He was the mentor of the ancient Sun Emperor!"

"But apart from that, there is no other news, and the Sun Emperor is extremely ancient; judging by his lifespan, it's impossible for him to be alive now."

"The Dao Ancestor of Immortality is beyond the general's imagination, and even surpasses the imagination of all immortals."

Ao Yue asked, "General, are you familiar with the ancient divine powers such as the Five-Colored Divine Light and the Six Paths of Reincarnation?"

"Of course I've heard of it." Huang Chenghu frowned and asked, "Is it related to the Ancestor of Longevity?"

"These great supernatural powers were either passed down to the disciples of the Longevity Dao Ancestor, or created by the disciples of the Dao Ancestor."

Ao Yue solemnly declared, "The Dao Ancestor is even more ancient than the ancient times!"

"What?!"

Huang Chenghu suddenly stood up and looked at Ao Yue in fear.

It's incredible that it has actually lived from a very long time ago until now, and we don't even know how long ago that was!

Zhang Yue and the others were also deeply shocked.

Yun Luo had been so shocked by Ao Yue's words that he lost his mind. Had he lived from ancient times to the present?

Ao Yue said, "That's all I know. The Dao Ancestor taught many disciples a long time ago, and they all became great ancient supernatural beings."

After a long while, Huang Chenghu finally came to his senses and asked, "How much do you know about the Dao Ancestor?"

Li Hao scratched his head and said, "Like Sister Yue'er, this is all I know."

Zhang Yue said, "I only saw the Dao Ancestor in the secret realm. I only know that the Dao Ancestor's disciples are the Great Sage Equaling Heaven and the Great Sage of the Sun. I don't know anything else."

"The Great Sage Equal to Heaven, the Great Sage of the Sun?" Huang Chenghu pondered. "This general knows of the Great Sage of the Sun. It is said that he is the younger brother of the Sun Emperor, but I don't know the specifics."

"Does the Heavenly Court have no records about the Great Sage?" Ao Yue asked.

Huang Chenghu shook his head: "My rank is too low, I can't find out."

He had also inquired about the Sun Great Sage's information, since he possessed the Sun Great Sage's decree and had been to that secret realm more than once.

Unfortunately, he was not qualified to access some of the secrets of the Heavenly Court; his strength and status were insufficient.

At this point, Huang Chenghu looked at them with a solemn expression: "The existence of the Longevity Dao Ancestor is too astonishing. I hope you can keep this secret."

"However, today in the secret realm, those people all know about the existence of the Longevity Ancestor," Ao Yue said, frowning.

"Before I came out, I sealed that part of their memories," Huang Chenghu said calmly. "So, only we know about the Dao Ancestor."

"I understand," Ao Yue nodded.

Zhang Yue and Li Hao nodded repeatedly.

Li Changsheng looked down at Huang Chenghu; the kid had thought things through quite thoroughly.

He looked up at the starry sky, pondering who these people, as Yang Dingtian had mentioned, really were.

Although I want to be more cautious, I won't be as careless as before.

The Great Dao Holy Embryo has the foundation to back it up!

Possessing the Jade Disc of Creation and three thousand Chaos Trees, this is already a very strong asset.

Caution is acceptable, but we can no longer be as complacent as before, ignoring everything.

If it really came down to a fight, he wouldn't even put a Celestial Immortal in his eyes. Even if someone surpassed a Celestial Immortal, he was confident he could escape.

However, premature exposure is indeed not a good thing.

Let's see what Huang Chenghu and his team can do first. If they can't, then I'll get involved myself.

Huang Chenghu, inside the palace, looked at Yun Luo again: "I know about the Jade Profound Daoist you mentioned. He is a mid-stage Loose Immortal. If the Dao Ancestor contacts you again, please tell him to leave this matter to me. I, Huang Chenghu, will definitely find out the truth."

Yunlu nodded: "I will pass it on."

"Well, that's enough for today. Li Hao is a bit too weak, so he'll serve as a reserve heavenly soldier, and you will serve as reserve heavenly generals," Huang Chenghu said.

"Yes."

The four exchanged a glance and respectfully withdrew.

Whether or not a candidate for Heavenly Soldiers or Heavenly Generals is selected depends entirely on Huang Chenghu's word.

As night fell, the four of them parted ways.

Ao Yue returned to the palace and contacted her great-grandmother, telling her what had happened.

Upon hearing this, the golden dragon indicated that it would continue to inquire.

Information about the Dao Ancestor of Immortality is extremely scarce, and it has hardly been circulated at all.

Li Changsheng sat cross-legged in the void, occasionally glancing at the bright moon in the sky, his thoughts drifting back to the past.

So much time has passed, and they are indeed no longer here.

However, he left himself with many mysteries that he needed to solve.

After Huang Chenghu becomes an immortal, we will ask him to help us find the Great Sage's decree.

Li Hao, this little guy, is practically a descendant of mine, so I might as well train him.

Ao Yue's talent is not bad either, and as for Zhang Yue, that unlucky little guy, his bloodline is indeed not bad.

Yunluo has decent talent; she can be nurtured...

Ok?

This little girl.

Li Changsheng chuckled to himself, not expecting that after Yun Luo returned, she would immediately set up a memorial tablet for him, offer incense and worship him, thus bringing him the power of incense offerings.

Although he didn't need it, it was Yunluo's sincerity.

Yun Luo respectfully offered incense: "Thank you, Dao Ancestor. If it weren't for you, I might not have become a prospective Heavenly General, let alone caught the eye of General Huang Chenghu."

"Our Tianyun Kingdom is weak and has suffered oppression from other countries. Furthermore, our territory has been occupied by various sects who disobey the imperial decrees."

"Yun Luo has been given high hopes since childhood, but he has no opportunity and his heart is willing but his strength is insufficient. Today, he met the Dao Ancestor, and it was the Dao Ancestor who changed Yun Luo's destiny."

"This young girl seems to be under a lot of pressure. Could it be that she also wants to become an empress?"

Li Changsheng fell into deep thought. There was already the Heavenly Heart Emperor Liu Wuyou, and now there's the Human Empress Yun Luo.

It's not impossible. I can modify her physique and get her a Chaos Sword Scripture... That's settled.

Thinking of this, Li Changsheng manipulated the void, causing the fallen to enter the dream.

The void rippled, and Yun Luo, who was offering incense, suddenly found himself in a dream.

A chaotic palace, where the Dao Ancestor of Immortality sat cross-legged.

"Dao Ancestor," Yun Luo respectfully bowed.

"I have heard your prayer," Li Changsheng said calmly. "I appreciate your sincerity and may grant you a blessing."

"Thank you, Dao Ancestor. In this life, Yun Luo will always honor you and make your name resound throughout the starry sky." Yun Luo bowed respectfully.

"As time goes by, the incense will crumble; I have no need for its power."

Li Changsheng shook his head slightly: "I need you to find the Great Sage's decree for me, which was left by my disciple. I also need you to find Bai Xian'er's whereabouts."

"Dao Ancestor, regarding the snake scales collected by Daoist Yu Xuan, General Huang Chenghu said he would take care of it," Yun Luo said respectfully.

"I entrust this matter to you. I will bestow upon you even greater talent, but this will also be a constraint upon you. If you are unable to break through your talent in the future, you will be unable to progress further," Li Changsheng said.

"May I ask, Ancestor, how strong is this talent?" Yun Luo asked cautiously.

"A single drop of the Great Dao's blood can surpass even a celestial being!"
