In the Immortal Domain, within the ancestral land of the Immortal King Chu Clan, the area was shrouded in a special mist. A figure stood amid the endless void, his body radiating brilliant, dense Quasi-Immortal Emperor light. It was dazzling beyond measure, illuminating eternity itself and even cutting off the flow of time!
"Excellent. I have already deduced the Immortal Dao cultivation system of the Primordial World to the Primordial Golden Immortal stage of condensing a Primordial Dao Fruit—the so-called Quasi-Saint realm. As long as I can deduce the Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, I will certainly be able to become a Road-End Level Immortal Emperor!"
"By then, even without Emperor Huang, Shi Hao, I will be able to quell the Dark Turmoil!"
Feeling the surging Quasi-Immortal Emperor power within him, Chu Yuan could not help but smile.
After struggling in Perfect World for a million years, he was finally about to gain the strength to protect himself!
Others might not know what lay beyond the World Sea, but how could he, a transmigrator, not know?!
There were no fewer than four dark Quasi-Immortal Emperors there!
And in the Ultimate Ancient Land at its deepest reaches, there was even the First Emperor of Heaven and Earth—the Corpse Emperor!
He intended to wait until he became an Immortal Emperor before quelling the Dark Turmoil in one stroke. As for Emperor Bone Bro, he could remain sealed for now. In any case, he would not be getting out anytime soon. Once Chu Yuan went even further, he would deal with him then.
Thus, although he had successfully stepped into the Quasi-Immortal Emperor Realm five hundred thousand years ago, Chu Yuan had continued concealing his strength to avoid catching the attention of the Dark Four Emperors. He had disguised himself as a Peerless Immortal King Titan until recently, when the timing was about right. Only then had he advanced another step and disguised himself as an Emperor Light Immortal King.
(The Immortal King Realm divisions in Perfect World were never particularly clear. The various materials all offered different explanations, so here they are divided into six realms: Flawed Immortal King [ordinary Ten Fiends]—Ordinary Immortal King [True Dragon]—Supreme Immortal King—Immortal King Titan—Peerless Immortal King Titan—Emperor Light Immortal King.)
This was to prevent certain shortsighted people from disrupting his plans, such as Ao Sheng and Taishi, both Supreme Immortal Kings.
He knew very well that these old fellows were indeed powerful, but their brains were not much to speak of. If one day they lost their minds and simply killed Shi Hao, then he would truly be screwed.
According to information sent by the Chu Family's people in the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, Shi Hao had gradually begun to emerge. The Double Stone Battle in the Void God Realm was imminent. Counting the time, there were only two million years left until the final Great Reckoning.
He was confident in dealing with the Dark Four Emperors, and even the Corpse Emperor. It could even be said that he had them firmly in hand. But when facing the Eerie Plateau beyond all worlds, Above the Heavens, no matter how confident Chu Yuan was, he did not dare claim that he could fight one against ten or handle ten Eerie Progenitors of the Sacrifice Dao Realm who could revive without limit!
Therefore, in this Immortal Domain where the strong were revered, only by displaying sufficient strength could his words make disobedient people obey!
However, what gave Ye Chu Yuan the greatest headache at present was not those Immortal King Titans who refused to listen, but how he should take the next step...
"Alas, in theory, I only need to advance one more step. But how exactly am I supposed to take this final step? None of those Primordial World novels I read in my previous life ever explained how one became a Primordial Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal. Even the Three Purities, the Two Sages of the West, and Nuwa were not orthodox Primordial Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortals."
"They were merely puppets of the Heavenly Dao, so-called Saints. After becoming Primordial Great Luo Golden Immortals and reaching a certain stage, they used the so-called foundation of the Great Dao, Primordial Violet Qi, as an introduction and fused vast amounts of merit to achieve Saint positions. That had no value as a reference whatsoever."
"And as for how Hongjun, Pangu, and the others achieved the Primordial Limitless Great Luo Golden Immortal realm, it was all glossed over in a single sentence. Not a damn thing was explained!"
"Alas, if I had known I would transmigrate into Perfect World, I should have read more Primordial World and fantasy novels back then. It would not have been this painful. Even if the Primordial World path did not work, I could have tried other cultivation systems..."
Just as Chu Yuan was filled with regret, a figure appeared outside the Chu Family Ancestral Land.
"Old Ancestor, Chu Yang requests an audience!"
The next moment, Chu Yuan's gaze, capable of tearing apart countless great universes, pierced through the mist and fell upon Chu Yang outside the ancestral land.
Chu Yang was the eighth-generation descendant of Chu Yuan's elder brother, Chu Xiao, and the current Chu Family Head. He normally made all decisions regarding the Chu Family's affairs.
Why was this brat looking for him? Could he be here to force him to marry, take concubines, and have children again...
No, no, no. As the head of the Immortal King Chu Clan, this brat handled countless affairs every day. He could not possibly spend all his time obsessing over Chu Yuan's private life. That would be far too ridiculous...
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Yuan's voice tore through the void, suppressing all Dao, and rang beside Chu Yang's ears.
"Come in and speak."
"Yes, Old Ancestor!"
Chu Yang readily complied, immediately turning into a streak of light and rushing through the passage his ancestor had opened by dispersing the mist with great power, heading swiftly toward the deepest part of the Chu Family Ancestral Land.
When he saw Chu Yuan, whose bearing remained unchanged despite their not having met for ten thousand years, Chu Yang dropped to his knees and slid forward, plowing two deep trenches into the ground. He came to a stop before Chu Yuan, tears streaming down his face as his voice turned so mournful that it sounded as though he had been ravaged by a hundred burly men...
"Old Ancestor, I beg you! Please leave a few descendants for our Old Chu Clan!"
"Other Immortal King families all have legitimate direct descendants of Immortal Kings. Only our Old Chu Clan has nothing but collateral branches, without a single legitimate direct descendant of an Immortal King! If this continues, our Old Chu Clan will become the laughingstock of the circle!"
"You have no idea, Old Ancestor. Some time ago, I ran into Ao Ming of the neighboring Immortal King family, the Ao Clan. He directly mocked our Chu Family..."
"What did he mock the Chu Family for?"
Chu Yuan frowned tightly, somewhat puzzled.
He knew Ao Ming. Ao Ming was the biological son of Immortal King Titan Ao Sheng and had even been treated by Ao Sheng as his heir. His cultivation had reached the Quasi-Immortal King Realm.
Had this fellow taken the wrong medicine? Why was he mocking the Chu Family for no reason?
"He said... he said that if our Chu Family lost you, Old Ancestor, there would no longer be anyone worth mentioning!"
"Such audacity! If their Ao Clan lost that old bastard Ao Sheng, who among them would be worth mentioning!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Yuan flew into a rage. In an instant, heaven and earth changed. The boundless mist that had originally shrouded the entire Chu Family Ancestral Land churned endlessly as the terrifying, boundless might of an Emperor Light Immortal King tore through the mist, shattered the void, ripped open the heavens, and pointed straight toward the Ao Family Ancestral Land an immeasurable distance away!
"Ao, control your descendants. If they keep spouting nonsense, do not blame this one for being merciless!"
Within the Ao Family Ancestral Land, Ao Sheng felt that horrifying pressure, which swept over from an immeasurable distance and vastly surpassed his own. His face turned green.
Damn it! Ever since Chu Yuan became an Immortal King Titan five hundred thousand years ago, that bastard had become increasingly arrogant. Back then, he had mocked Ao Sheng to his face. Now that he had entered the Emperor Light Immortal King Realm, he did not put Ao Sheng in his eyes at all!
Yet Ao Sheng could not do a thing about him...
After giving Ao Sheng a warning, Chu Yuan finally withdrew his gaze and looked at Chu Yang with a faintly amused smile.
"Alright, brat. You have achieved your first purpose. Now tell me the real matter. Why exactly did you come to find me?"
Chu Yang knew that his little scheme of wanting to teach Ao Ming a lesson could not be concealed from Chu Yuan. But since his ancestor was not angry, it meant that he did not care about his petty thoughts. Thus, without changing expression or skipping a beat, he directly stated his purpose.
"Old Ancestor, this junior truly wishes to ask you to produce a few direct Immortal King bloodlines for our Old Chu Clan! To that end, this junior has already informed every faction and world protected by our Chu Family to hold a beauty contest for you!"
Chu Yuan:...
What kind of world was this? In his previous life, being forced by his parents to go on blind dates had been bad enough. Now, after living for a million years, becoming an Emperor Light Immortal King in public and a Quasi-Immortal Emperor in secret, he was actually still being forced into marriage by his junior?
