Yes! To this day, Ying Hao has not refined an Ultimate Emperor Weapon!

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but rather that he hadn't had a good opportunity!

Of course, if he just wanted to refine an Ultimate Emperor Weapon, he could have done so when he achieved the Great Dao and became an Emperor.

But he didn't want to refine just any Ultimate Emperor Weapon; if he was going to do it, he wanted to do it perfectly.

During his growth, he had encountered many fortuitous encounters, even obtaining top-tier materials like Immortal Gold.

The most precious among them was a piece of Phoenix Blood Red Gold, a supreme divine material for refining Ultimate Emperor Weapons.

Phoenix Blood Red Gold was extremely yang and fiery, reaching the peak of hardness, its crimson color like phoenix blood, naturally possessing divine phoenix patterns.

He possessed the Sun God Physique, making Phoenix Blood Red Gold the best choice for refining an Ultimate Emperor Weapon.

However, after integrating the Golden Crow Bloodline and his Sun God Physique transforming into the Sacred Sun Physique, his ideas changed.

What he needed was an Ultimate Emperor Weapon that could carry his invincible Dao and be most compatible with himself.

This desire became even stronger, especially after he shattered the Heavenly Heart Imprint and broke through the myriad Daos of heaven and earth.

Phoenix Blood Red Gold was excellent, but it was not enough to carry his Dao, so he had never refined an Ultimate Emperor Weapon.

Not long ago, during a trip, he encountered the Four Immortal Slaying Swords and a Killing Formation Diagram, and his mind suddenly began to form some ideas.

Who said an Ultimate Emperor Weapon had to be a single weapon!

The Four Immortal Slaying Swords were the best example; they appeared to be four killing swords, but they constituted one Ultimate Emperor Weapon.

Coincidentally, at this time, he obtained the Primordial Violet Qi, and the idea in his heart became even more potent.

He had a rough idea of what kind of Ultimate Emperor Weapon he should refine!

In Tanggu Valley, Ying Hao entered seclusion and cultivated for several hundred years, gradually perfecting the idea in his heart.

On this day, Ying Hao opened his eyes and took one step, instantly traveling from the Ziwei Star Domain to the Big Dipper Star Domain.

Concealing his aura and traveling discreetly, he wandered through the Central Continent, eventually arriving beside a mystical pool.

Atop a towering mountain, the immortal pool shimmered with radiant light, mist swirling around it, creating a dreamlike scene. The water was as clear as jade, and spiritual energy surged forth.

The Immortal Transformation Pool had many legends circulating in the world since ancient times; it was a sacred land.

The Immortal Transformation Pool had always been mysterious, only appearing once every ten thousand years, making it impossible for ordinary people to witness this sacred land.

At this moment, standing before the Immortal Transformation Pool, Ying Hao felt an inexplicable energy, as if this place were the origin of life.

Vaguely, he perceived someone seated in the void, expounding on the Great Dao of creation, drawing one into an immersive trance.

Ying Hao remained unaffected. In his eyes, the true form of the Immortal Transformation Pool was revealed.

The Immortal Transformation Pool was a place of soaring immortality, rarely seen in the world, containing endless fortune, but also harboring terrifying killing intent.

Ying Hao stepped into the Immortal Transformation Pool, disregarding all killing intent, and reached out with a massive hand, grasping into the pool.

He would occasionally retrieve items from the Immortal Transformation Pool, only to quickly return them.

There were many rare treasures within the Immortal Transformation Pool, but anything useless to him held no interest.

"Found it!"

In Ying Hao's hand was a massive black stone, radiating streaks of auspicious light that cascaded down, bringing a sense of profound comfort.

This was Chaos Stone, a supreme treasure of immeasurable value, on the same level as Immortal Gold as a refining material.

Chaos Stone was not only incredibly hard, acting as a natural seal of chaos, but it also possessed supreme benefits for cultivation.

Within the Chaos Stone lay hidden supreme divine objects, which, upon extraction, could be immediately refined into an Ultimate Emperor Weapon.

Just as he held the Chaos Stone, marveling at it, a gentle breeze stirred, and ripples of green spread across the Immortal Transformation Pool.

A green copper block, about the size of a fist, appeared first, covered in mottled rust. A green lotus was rooted on the copper block.

The green lotus, no more than a foot tall, had tenacious and crystalline roots entwined around the green copper block, the two existing in symbiosis.

"A fragment of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron and a Chaos Green Lotus?"

Ying Hao's gaze deepened as he fixed upon the Chaos Green Lotus, sensing a vibrant life force.

The Chaos Green Lotus's transformation had already begun!

Severing the origin of an Immortal Medicine to become a true sentient being, ceasing to exist in its previous form, this was a path against the heavens.

As far as he knew, the Chaos Green Lotus had ultimately succeeded, transforming from an Immortal Medicine into a true sentient being and eventually becoming a peerless Demon Emperor.

Immortal Medicines possessed spirits, and being in a sacred land like the Immortal Transformation Pool, even he could not forcibly find the Chaos Green Lotus.

In other words, the Chaos Green Lotus's appearance at this time was clearly deliberate, manifesting before him of its own accord.

The Chaos Green Lotus swayed gently, and a man dressed in green robes walked ashore step by step, exuding an extraordinary presence.

A mottled green copper block hovered above his head, accompanying him ashore and arriving before Ying Hao.

"Greetings, fellow Daoist!"

The man in green robes cupped his fists in a salute. He did not bow subserviently despite facing a Great Emperor, but maintained a demeanor of neither subservience nor arrogance, treating Ying Hao as an equal.

Every movement of the man in green robes was natural, lacking any oppressive aura. Instead, it exuded a charm of natural Dao.

"Greetings, fellow cultivator!"

In Ying Hao's eyes, there was no man in green; there was only a Chaos Green Lotus rooted on a piece of green bronze.

Nine leaves propped up the heavens, its emerald vines and roots suppressed deities. Its verdant light shot into the sky, dazzling and brilliant. As its jade leaves unfurled, it was as if it had opened up an eternal azure sky.

But it was precisely because of this that it was worthy of his attention, for he was facing an Immortal Medicine with consciousness.

Immortal Medicines in the world were few and far between, but those Immortal Medicines only possessed rudimentary intelligence, not true consciousness.

The Chaos Green Lotus was special, not only did it have an extraordinary origin, but it had also interacted with the Desolate Heaven Emperor.

Now that it had begun its transformation and possessed true consciousness, it naturally deserved his address of "fellow cultivator."

"Our meeting is fate. I wish to discuss the Great Dao with you for a bit. May I?" the Chaos Green Lotus spoke.

It could sense the extraordinary nature of the person before it, not just because he was an unparalleled powerhouse in the world.

On this person, it felt a familiar aura, as if it were the very act of creation.

It was for this reason that it appeared before this person, taking a great risk, before its transformation was even complete.

There was a palpable connection, and it could sense that the key to its own enlightenment might lie with the person before it.

"Of course!"

The Chaos Green Lotus wished to discuss the Great Dao with him, and he too wished to discuss the Great Dao with the Chaos Green Lotus, to glimpse the mysteries of Immortal Medicines.

The next moment, profound Daoist sounds echoed, drifting over the Immortal Transformation Pool, and boundless phenomena emerged.

Facing the Chaos Green Lotus, Ying Hao did not speak of the Great Emperor's Dao, nor did he explain the methods for transforming into a Mortal World Immortal. Instead, he spoke of the true meaning of creation.

This was what he had gained from the Creation Imprint. Although it was almost incomprehensible, it did not prevent him from articulating it.

The Chaos Green Lotus swayed gently. Though it could barely understand, it listened with rapt attention.

Vaguely, it seemed to witness the scene of creation, the origin of all things.

The connection in the unseen realm was indeed correct; this person before it was truly the foundation for its enlightenment!
