Chapter 138: Beneath the Life Soil, Both Attain Dao!
Chapter 138: Beneath the Life Soil, Both Attain Dao!
More importantly, the new self had not only the purest essence, spirit, and the Sixth-Life Dao Fruit, but also a completely new inner landscape, waiting to be born.
This was a path she had pioneered, spending countless efforts to open up. If the new self couldn't be conceived, everything would be in vain.
This made Shao Hua extremely anxious. If the problem wasn't resolved soon, who knew what might happen.
There might be two versions of herself, which would be even more terrifying than a split personality;
or both the old and new selves might perish, as the old self was already on borrowed time, and the new self hadn't yet been conceived.
Day after day, year after year, Shao Hua continued to strive to solve her own issues.
In her fifth life, she had already undergone a tremendous struggle, a collision of Dao Fruits. She never expected that in her seventh life, the struggle would be even more intense.
She truly never imagined that she would have another opportunity to oppose herself, to compete and even to engage in a life-or-death battle!
In the confrontation and mutual hunting between the old and new selves, she finally overcame the most difficult step, merging the old and new.
Shao Hua fused her original mental imprint with the new self, who also received the essence of her life, unifying the nature of the old and new, solving all problems.
The old body and spirit were destined to decay and dissipate, but in the hundreds of years of mutual integration, the new self continued to improve and transform.
All that was useless or problematic was expelled, slowly fading away, completing a great transformation!
After this unexpected and tumultuous experience, Shao Hua's gains were much greater than expected.
Becoming a Daoist in her original form was fundamentally different, with a solid foundation and a transformation that transcended all previous levels, far surpassing the Seventh-Life Dao Fruit she had temporarily manifested.
The Seventh-Life Dao Fruit she had used to fight the Emperor, no matter how much power it borrowed, was ultimately rootless, standing on a precarious foundation, even touching the realm of the Mortal Realm Immortal.
But it was like building a tower in the air, appearing magnificent and unreachable, yet compared to a mountain solidified by countless peaks, it was nothing but a fragile structure.
So in that battle, the Seventh-Life Dao Fruit, despite its extreme ascension and desperate burst, could hardly have truly affected the Emperor.
The Emperor's severe injuries and retreat into chaos were largely due to his own disarray. The last shred of consciousness prevented him from mounting a proper defense, forcing him to endure a beating and retreat.
After living through her seventh life, Shao Hua didn't rush to emerge from seclusion. Instead, she chose to continue her enlightenment, aiming to create her own path and Dao.
In her seventh life, she was already near the realm of the Mortal Realm Immortal, capable of doing many things that were previously impossible.
Her path and system were already taking shape, with mist rising in the new inner landscape, and the mysterious Life Soil spanning it.
This place was incredibly unique, existing within the body yet not corresponding to any physical part. It was born from nothingness, belonging to her yet transcending her.
This couldn't help but remind Shao Hua of the sixth secret realm above the five secret realms.
It was similar, but not quite the same, and needed deeper exploration.
So, she set out, plunging into the boundless Life Soil, eventually arriving at a place of nothingness, like the edge of the universe, filled with terrifying laws that transcended the mortal world.
Unbelievable, what was connected beneath her Life Soil?
Here, layer upon layer of mysterious ripples spread, and a faint sound of a vast tide could be heard.
However, Shao Hua saw no need to tell Wu Shi and Wan Qing about these things.
Their talents and potential were unquestionable, but it was still too early. They had yet to attain Dao, and knowing too much would only confuse them.
In fact, Shao Hua's own mind was almost in chaos.
After so many years, she almost forgot that she was a "transmigrator."
After all, she didn't carry any transcendent items or cheats, and except for a good background, her journey had been extremely difficult, almost a step-by-step struggle.
But now she realized that the act of transmigration itself might be the greatest opportunity and cheat.
Of course, it was also hard to say if this was due to the transformation she underwent in the Nine Dragon Coffin.
"In any case, I have lived through my seventh life, and I am unharmed. You don't need to worry about me", Shao Hua stood up, using her last bit of strength to pat Wu Shi and Wan Qing's heads.
"Even with the Immortal Emperor's path to Dao before you, I believe you can create an eternal legend. When the time comes, we will meet again."
Shao Hua's figure completely dissipated, leaving behind a black and white bracelet that both men caught simultaneously.
Wu Shi and Wan Qing exchanged a glance, both pulling the corners of their mouths.
In the end, the Sky-Encompassing Bracelet was placed on the Nine-Orifice Divine Stone, while the two took the Immortal Bell and the Desolate Pagoda, each heading in different directions.
Before leaving, Wu Shi painfully extracted a few drops of essence blood from Xiao Bai Hu, used his powers to save Lu Ren, and left him in the Northern Dipper.
"I'm not dead, hahaha, I'm still alive!" Lu Ren woke up, finding not only that his injuries were healed but that he also had a talisman in his arms.
Surviving such a great calamity, he had turned misfortune into fortune.
"I have a feeling that the struggles of this world are not yet over, after all, it's Wu Shi and Wan Qing!"
"My journey as a witness is not over. I will witness the brilliance of this lifetime!"
Almost no one knew what shocking events had transpired during this era's struggle for the Emperor's path, where someone had attained Dao without triggering the Dao-Attainment Cataclysm.
But the universe's myriad paths were indeed suppressed by one person, and the Heaven's Heart Mark had coalesced, signaling the end of this era.
Not long ago, a massive battle occurred at the edge of the universe, even reaching beyond chaos.
"It's confirmed, Wu Shi is truly the Western Emperor's son, the Eastern Emperor's younger brother, almost creating a legend of three Emperors in one family, but was preempted by someone else."
"Speaking of which, this era may have only one current person, who has already attained Dao, with a background that might be unimaginable, possibly an ancient emperor reborn and reattaining Dao!"
"Rumors say that the families still worshiping the Immortal Emperor among the Primordial Ten Thousand Clans recently showed unusual activity, with the statues of their Emperors emitting immortal light at the same time, suggesting the attainer might be the Immortal Emperor!"
The world was in a state of great upheaval. The Eastern Emperor's brother, Wu Shi, was defeated, and the current genius, Wan Qing, was also defeated. The attainer was the legendary supreme deity of the Primordial Ten Thousand Clans—the Immortal Emperor!
The news sent shockwaves throughout the universe.
Soon, it was confirmed. An ancient elder from a clan that had been sealed since the Primordial Era emerged, sensing the familiar path of the Emperor, asked what year it was, and then dissipated into the Dao.
The Primordial Ten Thousand Clans celebrated, as their supreme deity had been reborn and reached the pinnacle again, ushering in a new era of glory for the clans.
However, humans and demons were deeply disheartened, even falling into panic.
Wu Shi and Wan Qing had disappeared, believed to have been harmed, and there were fears of retaliation from the reborn Immortal Emperor.
However, after that battle, the Immortal Emperor never appeared again, not even accepting the worship of the Primordial Ten Thousand Clans.
Many ancient clans from the depths of the starry sky emerged, following ancient texts and records, excitedly heading to the Northern Dipper to worship the Immortal Emperor at Ancient Emperor Mountain.
But they found that not only was there no sign of the Immortal Emperor, but Ancient Emperor Mountain had already cracked and was occupied by human forces.
At this point, many people remembered that the Immortal Emperor had appeared over a hundred thousand years ago, attacking the Eastern Emperor, which had shattered Ancient Emperor Mountain.
Thus, a group of ancient saints turned to attack the Kao Shan Sect and the Jade Pond Holy Land.
Since they had come, they couldn't leave empty-handed, right?
What if the Immortal Emperor was watching, wouldn't this be a good opportunity to show off?
But they underestimated the Jade Pond. Without needing to reveal their full strength, a Quasi-Emperor alone, wielding the Immortal Tear Green Gold Pagoda, was enough to suppress all the riffraff.
Especially after discovering that her imperial son was missing, she was already on the verge of madness, even wielding an Extreme Dao Emperor Weapon to charge deep into the starry sky.
The Kao Shan Sect was also not to be underestimated. Suddenly, a group of people emerged, delivering devastating blows with the Six Dao Cycle Fist, leaving many ancient clans reeling.
In fact, the Immortal Emperor had come to the Northern Dipper, but was forced back by a sword beam rising from the Jade Pond's ancient grounds.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, ten years had gone by, with no sign of the Immortal Emperor.
Many people were hoping for a miracle, waiting for Wu Shi and Wan Qing to reappear, but they never did, seemingly disappearing completely.
Then, another ten years passed, and a hundred years later, almost everyone believed that these two great geniuses had truly perished.
Some stubbornly believed that such people should not fade away quietly, that they hadn't died but had sealed themselves, waiting for the next era without an Emperor.
However, on a certain day a hundred years later, at the two poles of the universe, two figures simultaneously stood at the pinnacle, their terrifying auras shaking the nine heavens and ten earths.
"Defying Heaven's Will, today we break the mold of history, doing what has never been done before, starting with me!"
"What does life matter, what does death matter, coming from chaos, returning to chaos, an eternal lotus in the blue sky!"
Two grand voices echoed throughout the universe, shocking countless beings.
This era already had someone who had attained Dao, and logically, no one else should be able to do so. Throughout history, only one Emperor could exist in an era, and Emperors never met, an unbreakable taboo and legend.
But today, two people were defying the heavens.
"I knew they weren't dead, hahaha, if I could witness someone breaking the eternal legend, dying would be worth it!"
The Great Cataclysm shook the entire universe. The two simultaneously acted, defying the heavens, aiming to shatter the Heaven's Heart Mark, penetrate the myriad paths, and create a clear and bright world!
