Immortal Emperor Shuhua's Legacy

After Lou Yueming the whole story, the First Heavenly Emperor remained silent for a long time.

After a long silence, he quietly touched Bai Qiuran's shoulder and whispered, "Master, what do you think? Should I believe her?"

"How would I know? I've never met Shuhua, I don't know his habits or character, and I can't possibly guess whether he would do such a thing."

Bai Qiuran glanced at Bai Li and replied, "You are his master and adoptive father. Think about it yourself."

"Shuhua will indeed make the choice that this Consciousness Demon predicted."

The First Heavenly Emperor hesitated for a moment.

"But should I believe in a Consciousness Demon with its own thoughts?"

Whether you believe me or not, it doesn't matter to me.

Sensing the First Heavenly Emperor's hesitation, Lou Yueming calmly said, "For me, nothing matters except fulfilling Shuhua's last wish... Now I'm going to take you to receive his legacy. Whether you want to come or not is up to you."

Having said that, she turned around gently, her body shrinking to the height of Human Race woman, and then gracefully walked deeper into the area.

"Fine, I'll go. What are you afraid of?"

The First Heavenly Emperor gritted his teeth and said, "I can't beat you now, but if anything happens to me, my master will beat you to a pulp."

He followed.

"This guy, he's so adept at acting like a bully, he must have done this a lot before."

Bai Qiuran pointed to the back of the First Heavenly Emperor and said.

"Yes, I've done quite a bit."

Jiang Lan nodded and said, "After all, back in the Divine Age, he wasn't that strong from the very beginning."

"Alright, let's follow them and take a look."

Following Lou Yueming, Bai Qiuran and her group arrived at the deepest part of this Shadow Dimension.

There, an Immortal Palace was built. The palace buildings were majestic, but not luxurious. Instead, they exuded a grand and imposing aura.

"It's the Garrison God Palace, the celestial Immortal Palace that Shuhua used to govern in the Central Immortal Realm."

Looking at this Immortal Palace, the First Heavenly Emperor's gaze held a hint of nostalgia.

"During the War of the Consciousness Demon, he transformed this Immortal Palace into Fortress and deployed it to the front lines, only to have it destroyed. Unexpectedly, this child has managed to replicate it."

Bai Qiuran also looked over. Everywhere in this Immortal Palace was engraved with symbols representing the Garrison Tribe. It seemed that at least one thing Lou Yueming said was true: the Immortal Emperor Shuhua had indeed lived in seclusion here for a long time.

Upon seeing this Immortal Palace, the First Heavenly Emperor was already nine-tenths convinced. He quickened his pace and followed Lou Yueming into the Side Hall of the Immortal Palace.

Inside the Side Hall was a library, with rows and rows of bookshelves displaying all sorts of Records, books, and record Spirit Crystal.

"This is where Shuhua stored his research findings before his death."

Lou Yueming explained, "This Side Hall, and even the entire Immortal Palace itself, has been transformed into a spatial Magical Artifact by him. It can be stored as a model and carried around. This Side Hall stores the Runes Cultivation System he developed specifically for the beings of this Material World. He said that if this system can be perfected, it will be comparable to an Immortal Emperor. Furthermore, this system is compatible with the Cultivation system and can be cultivated simultaneously."

Bai Qiuran casually took a bundle of Records from the bookshelf and opened them. The files contained more advanced Runes cultivation methods and new Runes. In the previous Material World, he had already gained a preliminary understanding and mastery of the Runes Cultivation System passed down by the God of Runes.

But perhaps because of its remote location, the cultivation system in that Material World was far inferior to the system recorded in this bundle of Records.

It's likely that the original Immortal Emperor Shuhua was conceiving the Runes System within the Consciousness Domain while wandering through various Material World. The systems preserved in those remote Material World that the Immortal Emperor Shuhua visited first were certainly not as profound as the system that has now been fully developed and refined by the Immortal Emperor Shuhua.

"This system..."

The First Heavenly Emperor also took out two bundles of Records to read through, then looked saddened.

"Unexpectedly, even while stranded in the Immortal Realm, Shuhua continues to tirelessly contribute to the immortal realm..."

"He kept all his research findings on the Runes System here."

After seeing that Bai Qiuran and the others had finished reading, Lou Yueming continued, "Next, there's a method to deal with the Consciousness Demon..."

"Has he even figured out a way to deal with Consciousness Demon?"

The First Heavenly Emperor glanced at Bai Qiuran and exclaimed in astonishment.

"The research was successful, and that's why he died."

As Lou Yueming spoke, he led the group to a Side Hall on the other side.

Unlike the previous side Side Hall, which was filled with bookshelves, this side Side Hall was empty except for a pedestal with a recording Spirit Crystal floating on it.

"The results are right here."

Lou Yueming pointed to the recording Spirit Crystal and said.

"Master, please take a look first."

The First Heavenly Emperor reached out and took down the recording Spirit Crystal, handing it to Bai Qiuran.

Bai Qiuran held the Spirit Crystal, probed it with her Spiritual Sense, and quickly read out its contents.

Inside this Spirit Crystal were only a brief summary of the characteristics of Consciousness Demon by the Immortal Emperor Shuhua, and three spells.

The Immortal Emperor Shuhua summarized the knowledge of Consciousness Demon as follows:

Firstly, Consciousness Demon are beings of Consciousness. Once they leave the Consciousness Domain, their strength will be suppressed, causing them to drop to a lower level of combat power. However, outside the Consciousness Domain and in areas involving Consciousness, such as dreams and the Sea of Consciousness, the strength of Consciousness Demon will be restored to its original state.

Secondly, only beings of the same type can kill Consciousness Demon Consciousness.

Thirdly, the reason why Consciousness Demon can continuously revive is ultimately because it possesses its own domain, which allows it to continuously receive the thoughts of material beings, thus making itself immortal. When Consciousness Demon devours another demonic Consciousness Demon, it is the concept of the Consciousness Demon that is being devoured. If one could completely destroy the domain of a Consciousness Demon located within the Consciousness Domain, it should also be possible to break the Consciousness Demon's immortality. However, this domain would need to be separated from the overall Consciousness Domain in order to destroy it.

Fourth, the Consciousness Domain is a realm similar to the Heavenly Dao Rules, capable of traversing the Void and connecting several independent worlds to share a single rule. Therefore, if one could control Consciousness entity similar to the Heavenly Dao, it might be possible to replace and cover up the Consciousness Domain with one's own rules.

Led by Bai Qiuran, the Immortal Realm Immortal Emperor Shuhua also researched and developed the things that the Immortal Realm had discovered over the past 70,000 years. He even explored the composition of some Consciousness Domain, things that Bai Qiuran and the others had never even considered.

Bai Qiuran's attention then turned to the three spells.

The first spell is to reverse the Sea of Consciousness of material beings, using one's own Sea of Consciousness as a cradle similar to Consciousness Domain, and from this cradle, to create Consciousness life form with independent thought. This spell is called Creation.

The second spell, called Empowerment, utilizes the Runes System to strengthen and shape the development direction of Consciousness life form.

The third spell utilizes the Runes System, forcibly shaping the thoughts and values of Consciousness life form by inscribing Runes within it, and imbuing it with the highest goals and instructions within its mind, in order to control the Consciousness life form. This spell was named "Chain" by the Immortal Emperor Shuhua.
