Chapter 674: The Legend of the Eternal Emperor
"If I become a Primordial Dao Emperor, can I defeat the Dadao Emperor?" Xiao Lan asked, voicing her greatest concern.
During her time traversing the Great Dao Path, she had seen countless prodigies, all of whom were merely competitors to the Dadao Emperor. She could not even imagine how powerful the true Dadao Emperor must be.
Gu An replied, "Whether it's the Dadao Emperor or the Primordial Dao Emperor, it's all about the Qi Yun enhancement. There is no absolute superiority, but becoming a Primordial Dao Emperor will open up boundless possibilities for you."
He wasn't exaggerating. The Primordial Dao Emperor was a path he had created, and he could lend his power to it, allowing it to grow infinitely strong. Eventually, the Primordial Dao Emperor would surpass the Dadao Emperor.
Becoming a Primordial Dao Emperor not only allows one to tap into Gu An's Great Dao power but also to comprehend his Great Dao.
The name 'Primordial' is derived from the fact that Gu An is a Primordial Creation Dao Body.
The title 'Dao Emperor' is purely a matter of choosing a name that is as prestigious as that of an imperial lord. He was inspired by Ji Xiaoyu's title, the Lunhui Dao Emperor.
One day, he would make the Primordial Dao Emperor an even more powerful existence than the Dadao Emperor.
Not just his disciples could become Primordial Dao Emperors!
Of course, that was a distant future, as he was still in the process of creating the Primordial Dao Emperor.
For now, it was only the first stage, which could guide people onto the path.
Xiao Lan pondered for a moment and said, "Since you won't harm me, I am willing to become a Primordial Dao Emperor. Teach me."
Gu An smiled, waved his right hand, and Xiao Lan's injuries were instantly healed. Her mana was restored to its full state, and the dim world around them suddenly transformed back into the cave heaven.
This scene made Xiao Lan's eyes widen, and she couldn't help but ask, "Was that just an illusion?"
"No, it was a real world, created by me."
Gu An's answer left Xiao Lan inwardly amazed. What level of cultivation must one reach to achieve such a feat?
"Sit down."
Gu An adjusted his clothing and sat down, gesturing for Xiao Lan to do the same.
After Xiao Lan sat down, Gu An began to expound on the Dao.
The Dadao Emperor must battle on the Di lu of the Great Dao Path, devouring each other's Dadao Qi Yun. The ultimate victor will become the Dadao Emperor.
For the Primordial Dao Emperor to match the Dadao Emperor, they must also undergo a process of accumulation.
Gu An did not intend to let Dao Seekers engage in a brutal struggle like raising a silkworm. Instead, he thought of his Lifespan Projection, Lifespan Cycle, and Innate Cycle Technique.
He planned to have those pursuing the Primordial Dao Emperor achieve enlightenment through reincarnation, but not by personally reincarnating. Instead, their will would be projected into reincarnation.
They would truly exist but would eventually be destroyed, without shaking the Great Dao, yet they would absorb the true essence of the Dao.
With a clear direction, the next steps could be better refined.
Xiao Lan quickly became engrossed in Gu An's teachings. The cave heaven remained tranquil, undisturbed by the passage of time, exuding a serene beauty.
...
In the Piaomiao Xianting, a vast golden hall, hundreds of young-looking cultivators gathered. Tianhao was among them, surrounded by many people who chatted with him, making him the center of attention.
"Finally, we have the qualifications to compete for the Dadao Emperor."
"Only a million years until it's our turn. Time is short."
"Tianhao is truly remarkable, having qualified to compete for the Dadao Emperor despite not yet reaching the Dao Library Free Immortal stage."
"I heard the Patriarch holds him in high regard."
"Don't get too excited. The path to the Dadao Emperor is incredibly difficult, and we may end up killing each other."
The Piaomiao Xianting disciples discussed the matter of the Dadao Emperor.
Tianhao remained silent, recalling the elder who had spoken earlier. When the elder announced the matter of the Dadao Emperor, Tianhao always felt as though the elder was looking at him, and not with good intentions.
Although he had integrated himself into Piaomiao Xianting, he was not born here. This fact created a sense of estrangement in his heart, making it impossible for him to fully trust anyone.
"Speaking of Dadao Emperors, our Piaomiao Xianting has produced many Dadao Emperors throughout history. Do you know which one had the highest talent?"
A blue-robed man's words caught the attention of many, and Tianhao couldn't help but turn to look.
The blue-robed man relished the attention, clearing his throat before saying, "It has to be the Eternal Emperor of Golden Ripple Immortal Mansion!"
"He was born with the Emperor Eye, shocking the entire Immortal Court. Perhaps unparalleled talent brings misfortune, for the heavens are fair. An evil presence coveted his Emperor Eye and broke into Piaomiao Xianting, killing his parents. To save his life, Piaomiao Xianting sent him to Spirit Mountain, where he received the true teachings. He was also a direct disciple of the Heavenly Buddha Ancestor. After breaking into the Great Dao Path, he became invincible, and it took him an extremely short time to become a Dadao Emperor."
Eternal Emperor!
Emperor Eye!
Tianhao had heard of these names before. This person was said to be a supreme Tian Jiao from long ago. He had heard several elders use the Eternal Emperor to suppress the pride of talented disciples.
However, when the disciples asked for more details about the Eternal Emperor, they were warned not to inquire further.
The Eternal Emperor seemed to be a taboo in Piaomiao Xianting.
"Since the Eternal Emperor was so powerful, why did he die?" someone asked in confusion.
The blue-robed man spoke mysteriously, "He didn't die from being killed. Even the Xianshen couldn't defeat him. He entered the River of Cause and Effect for the sake of his beloved. Whether he truly perished is unknown. Many of the elders in the court are eagerly awaiting his return. It is said that Spirit Mountain frequently sends disciples to the River of Cause and Effect for training, likely at the behest of the Heavenly Buddha Ancestor. The Eternal Emperor was the Heavenly Buddha Ancestor's most beloved disciple."
"The Heavenly Buddha Ancestor is a supreme being who has transcended the Vast World. Even such an existence cannot forget the Eternal Emperor. Think about it, how high must his talent have been?"
His words earned nods of agreement from the surrounding disciples, who began to fantasize about the Eternal Emperor. Even Tianhao couldn't help but imagine what the Eternal Emperor must have been like.
"Wait, how do you know so much?" a female disciple suddenly asked, drawing everyone's attention to the blue-robed man with peculiar looks.
Those who recognized the blue-robed man were even more confused.
The blue-robed man maintained his smile, but it grew increasingly eerie.
"Because I have seen him, and I have assisted him!"
The blue-robed man said this with a smug tone, causing the surrounding faces to become even more peculiar.
Tianhao sensed something and furrowed his brow, quietly stepping back.
The blue-robed man suddenly burst into a cloud of black mist, which rapidly spread, forcing the surrounding disciples to retreat and draw their magical treasures in defense.
"Little brats, I am the Dark Demon Emperor, the Eternal Emperor's subordinate. I am also a Dadao Emperor. Today, only one of you will survive, and only the survivor will have the qualification to compete for the title of Dadao Emperor!"<|im_end|>
The blue-robed man's voice echoed, but his tone had turned cold and chilling.
Rumbling—
The entire palace began to tremble, and Tianhao's face changed drastically as he sensed a powerful suppressive force emanating from outside the hall.
They had nowhere to run!
What was happening?
Was it an external invasion, or was it an arrangement by Piaomiao Xianting?
Tianhao took out his three Dao Treasures, vigilantly watching the black mist. He could faintly make out a figure moving within the mist.
