The Immortal Emperors weaken the book

In the following time, Zhang Yu controlled his clones and began to cultivate the Cultivation Method given by the Ten Immortal Emperors.

Zhang Yu had a bad feeling about the Chain Law Diagram designed by the Ten Immortal Emperors.

He thought to himself, "To reach an agreement, they must have already gone through countless exchanges and discussions in secret."

.?? m

"It's laughable that I even thought I had a tiny bit of influence, enough to affect the direction of this creation Chain Law Diagram."

"However, the truth is that the Ten Immortal Emperors did not give anyone a chance to interfere this time, and did not even want to share a drop of soup with others."

Zhan Xian said, "The Ten Immortal Emperors are always thinking about how to torment the Lower Cultivator Kunxu, so that they can get one step closer to becoming the Endtime Immortal Emperor. The fact that all ten of them acted together and achieved such a unified goal must involve a huge amount of interests."

The sheer amount of profit that could unite the Immortal Emperor in purpose— Zhang Yu couldn't help but feel that this matter was extremely beneficial to the other beings of Kunxu.

--It's highly unlikely to be beneficial.

While Zhang Yu was cultivating, he also did not stop his other work, relying on his powerful cultivation and abilities.

At this very moment, Zhang Yu was reading the "Feather Scroll" when a lost history came to mind.

The more Zhang Yu read through the contents, the more surprised and astonished he became.

He thought to himself, "I will ignite War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths in the Ying Xintian, unify the Righteous and Demonic Paths, use righteousness to subdue evil, and achieve the highest immortality."

emperor----"

"Afterwards, he waged war against the world; annihilated all the Immortal Emperor; unified all realms; and brought together Kunxu, ushering in Immortal Dao Golden Age."

Zhan Xian exclaimed in surprise, "In this lost history, it was actually Ancestor Ying who instigated the War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths? And he won a great victory?"

A flash of inspiration struck Zhang Yu, and all sorts of information from the past came together at that moment.

"This clearly did not meet the expectations of some people, so the world was rolled back, the outcome of this battle was overturned, and the world, under new guidance, has arrived at the present state of Kunxu."

"Tai Zhen is right. The War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths is being orchestrated by someone behind the scenes. And these people are deeply connected to the World Rollback. It seems that they ignited the War of Righteousness and Demonic Paths prematurely, preventing Senior Ying Xintian from accumulating enough power to ultimately Righteous and Demonic Paths."

Zhan Xian said solemnly, "Perhaps it was precisely out of fear of Ancestor Ying Xintian that the beings of the Returning World secretly suppressed him, preventing him from achieving the position of Immortal Emperor to this day. Otherwise, Kunxu would never be in its current state."

Zhang Yu nodded in agreement with the speculation about Zhan Xian and continued to study the lost history that followed.

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "In this lost history, after Senior Ying Xintian unified Kunxu, he began to benefit the world."

He established schools to uniformly train all monks, with everything based solely on academic performance.

"He also regained control of the Dao Seed and the Chain Law Diagram Dao Orthodoxy, and made them known to the world, allowing everyone to use the Chain Law Diagram and the Dao Seed, thus ushering in a Immortal Dao Golden Age for the entire world."

"But—" Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, "The improvement in aptitude and the increase in cultivation efficiency have greatly fueled the ambition of every cultivator."

Everyone considered themselves a chosen one of heaven, a genius in the path of Immortal Dao, and confident of achieving immortality. Thus, countless cultivators, driven by their Heart Aspiring to Immortality, raced headlong towards it.

Zhang Yu sighed, "The more a cultivator's aptitude is improved, the higher their cultivation efficiency becomes, and the more they want to break through to the peak of the Immortal Dao, making them more easily influenced by their Heart Aspiring to Immortality."

"Even because the Chain Technique and the Dao Seed were used by all living beings, and this amplified their yearning for the Heart Aspiring to Immortality, the Chain Technique, the Dao Seed, and the Book were ultimately severed."

When Zhang Yu first saw this passage, a hint of surprise and uncertainty flashed through his mind. It was the first time he had ever known that the Dao Orthodoxy of this chain technique and Dao Seed seed could actually be disconnected from the Book.

"The Book connects numerous Dao Orthodoxy of thought throughout history; since it can connect, it can also sever those connections."

As Zhang Yu looked at the information appearing on the "Feather Scroll," he could sense that the person who wrote the section on "severance" seemed to understand the reasons very well, as if they were recalling what they had personally experienced, sharing the information they had seen, heard, and felt.

He said it all one by one.

"Was it my future self experiencing it firsthand? Or was my future self merely reposting someone else's account?"

Zhang Yu suppressed his speculations and continued to study the content before him.

"The Heart Aspiring to Immortality is rooted in the most fundamental Heavenly Principle, stemming from humanity's boundless desire for self-improvement."

"Books are also rooted in the most fundamental Heavenly Principle, stemming from humanity's boundless yearning for reproduction and inheritance."

Both of these are human instincts, the foundation of what makes us human, and one of the sources of change in the world today.

"The struggle between the two is endless, and once any Dao Orthodoxy becomes associated with one, it will gradually drift away from the other."

"If the Chain Technique and Dao Seed are used to enhance the aptitude and talent of all Lower Cultivator, it will inevitably greatly promote the influence of the Heart Aspiring to Immortality, causing the Chain-Law Dao Orthodoxy and the Dao Seed Orthodoxy to gradually become linked with the Heart Aspiring to Immortality, and eventually break off their connection with the Book."

Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat. "Such a thing exists? There's a contradiction between 'the Chain Law Diagram being made public because of those Heart Aspiring to Immortality ' and ' the Chain Law Diagram Connection Book'."

Did the Immortal Ancestor consider this point back then?

"That's not right." Zhang Yu suddenly realized. "When the Immortal Ancestor created the ' Chain Law Compendium,' he wanted the Chain Law Diagram Chain Law Diagram be available to everyone in the world, so that everyone could use them."

"Since everyone can use it, why is there a need for a book to connect the Chain Law Diagram?"

Looking at the lost history recorded before him, Zhang Yu seemed to be deep in thought, "So it must be that the Immortal Ancestor encountered Senior Ying Xintian in..."

A similar problem arose in the lost history: he discovered that if everyone could use the Chain Law Diagram, it would exacerbate the influence of those Heart Aspiring to Immortality.

"Therefore, he prevented the general public from using the Chain Law Diagram and connected the Book to Chain Law Diagram, allowing only a select group of Book holders to use Chain Law Diagram."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu couldn't help but sigh again, "This is the Dao Orthodoxy. Even the slightest deviation can make the world worse, and then in order to correct the mistakes, more effort and more methods are needed, making the world more and more complicated."

The next moment, a bad guess surged in Zhang Yu's mind. "Could it be that what the Ten Immortal Emperors want to do this time is to sever the connection between the Chain Law Diagram and the Book?"

However, Zhang Yu couldn't be sure either. He would only know the effect of the Chain Law Diagram once he saw it. For now, he could only suppress his distracting thoughts and continue to comprehend the information of the lost history.

"Qualities and talents can accelerate the growth of ambition in people's hearts."

"As Ying Xintian blessings to the world, heroes rise up everywhere, and countless people want to step on others to reach the pinnacle of Immortal Dao."

"Endless struggles and conflicts—even with Ying Xintian's strength, it would be difficult to suppress them all, unless he were willing to monopolize the Immortal Dao Path and single-handedly quell the world."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "But the more unwilling Senior Ying Xintian is to punish the world, the more opportunities he gives to many cultivators to reach the peak of Immortal Dao, and the more competition, conflict, and contradictions will erupt among cultivators."

"Gradually, even Ying Xintian, this Supreme Immortal Emperor, became a thorn in the side of countless Immortal Venerable and Immortals, and countless Lower Cultivator cultivators. Driven by their desire to follow the path of Heart Aspiring to Immortality, everyone wanted to replace him."

"At this point, before Ying Xintian, the whole world is his enemy."

"And the increasing number of cultivators achieving immortality and establishing their own paths has further disrupted the peace and tranquility of the world."

Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, "Ying Xintian believes that as long as he does not sever the Immortal Dao of immortality and does not suppress everyone's realm, then one day, a group of beings who are capable of matching him will emerge, yet only want to climb to the peak and ultimately achieve their Finality by exploiting the world."

"Senior Ying Xintian believes that to eradicate this problem, one must eradicate the Heart Aspiring to Immortality; and to eradicate the desire for Heart Aspiring to Immortality, one must extinguish the Immortal Dao altogether, severing all hope of climbing to the Immortal Dao of immortality."

"So, to achieve this, he severed the lifespan of all living beings, setting it at 100 years, and shattered the Reincarnation, exterminated demonic blood, crushed the yin energy, and slaughtered all gods, leaving no immortals, demons, ghosts, or gods in the world—no chance of becoming an immortal, including himself."

After repeatedly contemplating this lost history, Zhang Yu was overwhelmed with emotion.

He recalled the plan that Fu Xiantian had told him during the University War in the Lower Realm.

"Back then, they said they'd set a 1500-year lifespan limit, right?" Zhang Yu thought to himself. "Unexpectedly, in another lost chapter of history, Senior Ying Xintian went even further, setting a 100-year lifespan limit."

Zhan Xian sighed, "If there were no more Immortal Dao in this world, perhaps Kunxu would not exist as it is today."

Sect Examination Clone scoffed, "Nonsense! We strive to reach the pinnacle of Immortal Dao, only to do something so foolish?! Even if lifespan is capped at 100, does that mean people won't strive to climb higher?"

"It's only a temporary measure to control the intensity of the struggle. As long as humanity continues to reproduce and the world continues to develop, the desire to climb higher will be endless, and the struggle will never cease. One day, we will return to the original path."

Sect Examination Clone said, "Zhang Yu, do you understand? His nonsense is wrong. After going around in circles, he will eventually return to Kunxu, which means that Kunxu is the Righteous Path heaven and earth! The only problem is that there are too many Immortal Emperor. Once we become the Sole Immortal Emperor, things will be better."

Listening to the argument, Fu Ji couldn't help but think to herself, "This must be considered a contradiction between Zhang Yu's own thoughts and his own?"

Zhang Yu ignored the argument between the two thoughts and continued to comprehend the abilities of the "Book".

The book that triggered this lost history, after being incorporated into the "Feather Scroll," transformed into a new chapter called the "Cosmos Chapter."

After some study, Zhang Yu discovered that the abilities of the "Cosmos Chapter" were not complicated. As long as he recorded the Cultivation Method he had mastered that contained Spatial Technology into it, he could enhance the effects of those Cultivation Method.

After testing it out a bit more and registering Cultivation Method related to Spatial Technology, Zhang Yu found that when he used these Cultivation Method again, he could vaguely feel the coordination of the entire world, and all the Spatial Structure seemed to adapt to him on their own.

"The operating costs of transportation hubs can be reduced by more than 30%."

"Now that the [Cosmic Dao Orthodoxy] and this ' Cosmos Chapter ' have both provided assistance, there are probably very few cultivators below the Immortal level whose Spatial Technology surpasses mine."

With a thought, Zhang Yu felt the "Feather Scroll" before him move without wind, flipping through the "Immortal Foundation Chapter" and the "Chain Law Compendium,"

The Great Sage Chapter, the Tribulation Chapter, and the Cosmos Chapter.

He thought to himself, "With more and more new chapters being added to the ' Feather Scroll,' there are more and more directions for upgrading."

In the days that followed, Zhang Yu continued his spiritual practice, meditation, and work.

However, no new chapters were added to the "Feather Scroll," only some modules for Specialization in Cultivation Method or ordinary Chain Law Diagram were added, which were of little use to Zhang Yu's improvement.

After some time, Zhang Yu finally completed the cultivation of all 10 Cultivation Method provided by the Immortal Emperor.

During this cultivation process, he could sense that although these 10 Cultivation Method were Basic Cultivation Method, they contained incredibly profound techniques, allowing people to learn and cultivate easily while greatly improving their various attributes.

In particular, Zhang Yu could see that these Cultivation Method could be practiced from any level, whether one was Qi Refining cultivator or an Ascension Realm cultivator, one could start practicing them directly.

"These Cultivation Method were likely meticulously designed by the Ten Immortal Emperors, possessing unparalleled adaptability and comprehensiveness."

Next, Zhang Yu opened the "Chain Law Compendium" and tried to fill in the Cultivation Method one by one.

A moment later, the Chain Law Diagram information that these ten Cultivation Method could create appeared before Zhang Yu's eyes.

Is the name of the Chain Law Diagram "Immortal Emperor Successor"?

"Function one: It can enhance vitality and survivability, allowing one to continue living under the most extreme conditions, and even function by breathing and sun exposure?"

"Function Two: Learning ability and immortal research ability will both increase dramatically, greatly improving the efficiency of learning and cultivating Immortal Dao, and can also convert reproductive essence to further enhance the effect."

Although both of these functions sound like they would benefit all living beings, Zhang Yu, who already understands the Kunxu ecosystem very well, only sees a more bleak future.

The Sect Examination Clone said, "Converting reproductive essence to improve aptitude? Wouldn't that mean cultivators can sterilize themselves for free? What a great perk! And not needing medicine, or even Spiritual Energy, just needing to breathe and be exposed to light to live? That's an even greater perk."

"If that's the case, then we'll probably have to charge for all sunlight and air, and most areas will likely be plunged into darkness. If our company provides sunlight, that would be an employee benefit."

"Since this learning ability has been improved, we can raise the bar for our company's future recruitment requirements."

Zhang Yu remained silent and continued reading, "Function Three: Strengthening the Dao Heart, transforming distracting thoughts into resolve, enabling cultivators to single-mindedly pursue the Dao, with nothing else besides it—"

Upon seeing this, Zhan Xian couldn't help but criticize, "Isn't it enough that you're already Heart Aspiring to Immortality? Do you still need to abandon all other thoughts and push forward? What kind of mess are you going to make of Kunxu?"

The Sect Examination Clone said, "I think the cultivators in the sect have the potential to go bankrupt again. At least one-tenth of them will go bankrupt every year. They could be Sect Affairs Officer for decades or even centuries. The sect is supporting too many idle people."

"Hmph, once I become Immortal Emperor, I will definitely promote this Chain Law Diagram."

Zhang Yu, however, thought of another question, "In Senior Ying Xintian's lost history, due to the promotion of the Chain Law Diagram Chain Law Diagram its enhancement of cultivators' aptitude, the Chain-Law Dao Orthodoxy eventually lost its connection with the Book."

"If this [Immortal Emperor Successor] Chain Law Diagram is promoted by the Ten Immortal Emperors and significantly alters the aptitude of cultivators, will it also lead to this problem?"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "With free sterilization, improved aptitude, and the elimination of distractions to solidify Dao Heart, the influence of ' Heart Aspiring to Immortality ' will inevitably grow stronger, as more and more people use this Chain Law Diagram— "

"Heart Aspiring to Immortality would stir up the Chain-Law Dao Orthodoxy, causing the Book and the Chain-Law Dao Orthodoxy to gradually sever their connection."

Zhang Yu asked solemnly, "If that's the case, what will be the consequences if the ' Feather Scroll ' and the Chain Law Diagram gradually begin to disconnect?"

"As the connections gradually break, will I find more and more Chain Law Diagram becoming unusable?"

The Sect Examination Clone also became serious. "Are these Ten Emperor Beasts perhaps meant to restrict us?"

"It shouldn't be us," Zhan Xian guessed. "We're probably just collateral damage; the real target might be—"

He is the Immortal Ancestor.

Zhang Yu also recalled the matter of the Immortal Ancestor's resurrection, and thought to himself, "The Immortal Ancestor is the creator of the 'Book.' Now, the Ten Immortal Emperors are promoting this Chain Law Diagram to sever the connection between the Chain Law Diagram and the Book, which should be to deal with the Immortal Ancestor."

"If that's the case, then the Chain Law Diagram is probably just the beginning—"

"And the Immortal Ancestor has another year to recover, which means that many more actions will likely take place within that year."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yu's heart sank.

"Within a year, starting with this Chain Law Diagram, the Immortal Emperor will gradually use various means—all aimed at weakening the Immortal Ancestor and severing the connections between the Book and each Dao Orthodoxy."

"In that case, my book will also be weakened, causing many of its functions to gradually become ineffective!"

Zhan Xian sighed, "Further exploitation of the world, or the weakening of books and the restriction of our abilities—these are merely aftereffects, the aftereffects of the Immortal Emperor ' efforts to weaken the Immortal Ancestor."

Sect Examination Clone said unwillingly, "But even the aftershocks of such a top-level Combat Arts will greatly affect our strength! Without the help of the ' Feather Scroll,' how much more difficult will it be for us to fight against the Immortal Emperor in the future?"

He shouted, "We can't just stand by and watch this [Immortal Emperor Successor] be created!"

Just as Zhang Yu was pondering this, he discovered that news had already been released in the Spirit Realm.

"The nationwide Chain Law Diagram will be completed today!"

"Heavenly Evolution Award winner, Hyperfrequency Heavenly Lord, will take you live to wait for the Chain Law Diagram results."

"Amidst everyone's anticipation, Zhang Yu has remained secluded at home for several days—"

Looking at these news headlines, Zhang Yu wondered, "Are these messages being pushed by the Immortal Emperor?"

He gave a wry smile, thinking to himself, "They even calculated the time it would take me to complete all ten Cultivation Method? They've also arranged the publicity for the Chain Law Diagram? Is this... a warning to me?"

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "If I were to switch to a Cultivation Method right now and create another Chain Law Diagram, what would the Immortal Emperor do?"

"Suppress me?"

"No, we can't confront them head-on."

Zhang Yu took a deep breath, and suddenly an idea struck him: he wanted to try to use the power of his Spirit Root to deduce the Cultivation Method.

"If we can deduce other effects from these Cultivation Method, perhaps we can create another Chain Law Diagram using the same ten Cultivation Method."

With this in mind, Zhang Yu wanted to contact Bai Zhenzhen and exchange Spirit Root with her.

But no matter how he tried to contact her, Bai Zhenzhen did not respond at this moment.

Seeing the name "Heavenly Sword Immortal Emperor" in the email, Zhang Yu felt a bad premonition.

He then tried to contact his Elder Sister, Zhang Pianpian, but received no response.

Then Zhang Yu tried to contact Tai Yuebai, but the other party only sent him one message: "Protect yourself, just stay behind the strong."

Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat. "Is this... something similar to what Dao Ge told me in the Lower Realm? Is it a message from Senior Ying Xintian?"

"If I only seek to protect myself, then I would temporarily submit to the Ten Immortal Emperors, but wouldn't doing so lead to irreversible consequences?"

While pondering, Zhang Yu contacted Kuang Tianqing at the Old Days Graveyard.

However, in response to Zhang Yu's contact, Kuang Tianqing simply left a message: "Minister Zhang, I don't have time right now. Let's contact each other again tomorrow."

Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is this the attitude of the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor? Well, the Ten Immortal Emperors have now stood together."

At that moment, a sense of understanding flashed through Zhang Yu's mind. "In the past, the reason why we were able to turn misfortune into good fortune time and time again was that we took advantage of the conflicts of interest among the Ten Immortal Emperors and the rifts between them."

"But if the Ten Immortal Emperors share the same goal, if they stand on the same side—they will be invincible within this Kunxu."

Just then, a communication came from the Layer 33. Jing Hui asked Zhang Yu, "Minister Zhang, is everything alright on your end? Is the Chain Law Diagram ready?"

Zhang Yu: "It will take a little more time."

Jing Hui reminded him, "Minister Zhang, just do everything according to the Immortal Emperor's instructions. The last thing we ministers should do is act on our own initiative. If we ruin the arrangements from above, the Immortal Emperor will certainly not let us off lightly."

After ending the call, Zhang Yu felt as if all his escape routes had been cut off, plunging him into darkness.

The only path that still shone with light was the one jointly guided by the Ten Immortal Emperors.

But Zhang Yu knew in his heart that if he continued to follow the path guided by the Ten Immortal Emperors, this time it would be the Chain Law Diagram, and next time it would be something else entirely.

As he watched the Immortal Emperor gradually erode the book, and as the connection between the "Feather Scroll" and each Dao Orthodoxy broke, his chances of confronting the Immortal Emperor would plummet, and he would eventually be sent to the Immortal Emperor ' dinner table.

Zhan Xian said with difficulty, "Damn it, why are the Ten Immortal Emperors standing together so firmly this time?"

The Sect Examination Clone said helplessly, "We have no right to bargain now. Even if we have to watch the Ten Immortal Emperors revise the book, we can only accept it."

Zhan Xian said, "Today we cede five cities, tomorrow we cede ten more—but our land is limited, while the tyrannical emperor's desires are insatiable."

Sect Examination Clone said, "Perhaps the situation isn't so bad. After all, if the Immortal Emperor keeps slashing the books like this, making us weaker and weaker, we'll eventually be too weak to become immortals! It will cause his investment to fail!"

Zhan Xian: "Perhaps the Immortal Emperor intends to first censor the books, making it easier to control us, then use other methods to accelerate our growth, fattening us into immortals in a more controllable way, and then swallowing us whole?"

Seeing Zhang Yu remain silent, Fu Ji couldn't help but ask, "Zhang Yu, what's wrong?"

Zhang Yu didn't speak, but racked his brains, trying to think of any other way to struggle.

He turned the pages of the "Feather Scroll" before him one by one, but still found nothing.

It wasn't until Jing Hui finished sending his third urgent message that Zhang Yu suddenly noticed lines of writing appearing on the prologue of the "Feather Scroll".

"Yu, in order to rebel against the Immortal Emperor, combined bloodline technology to revive the Immortal Emperor's Cultivation Method, slightly modifying the Chain Law Diagram's effects----"

As Zhang Yu looked at these messages, he was startled. "Could this also be a lost history? Only now is it appearing at the appointed time?"

"Is this a record of the choices I made when creating the Chain Law Diagram last time?"

"Using bloodline technology to deduce the Cultivation Method, I slightly altered the effect of the Chain Law Diagram, allowing all cultivators with bloodline descendants to touch it..."

The effect of the Chain Law Diagram has changed.

Zhang Yu quickly read on, "But in the end—all cultivators with my bloodline were stripped of their physical bodies."

"My method didn't work; it only caused many people to change jobs, going from their original positions to Soul Cultivator roles."

Zhang Yu sighed inwardly, and saw the last line of text appear on the prologue.

"I have no other choice but to submit to the Ten Immortal Emperors. I leave this final message here, hoping you won't follow my example and suffer unnecessary and enormous losses."

Looking at the message, Zhang Yu sighed deeply, thinking to himself, "Is there really no other choice?"

But just then, another line of text appeared on the message.

"I'll help you."

"Me too."

"And me."
