Subsequently, a group of Great Emperor attained enlightenment, absorbing unlimited nourishment from the Nine Heavens Ancient Realm, causing even greater damage to this universe.
Su Yu chose a different path.
His journey to immortality began with the severing of his Dao in the Immortal Three Severing the Dao of the game. His path to Severing the Dao was incredibly smooth, as if aided by heaven, allowing him to easily ascend to the Third Heaven of the Immortal Platform. The same was true for his subsequent attainment of immortality!
This is true divine favor; it is not defying Heaven, but rather following Heaven's will!
For cultivators of the World Dao to go against the will of Heaven is to go in the opposite direction; it is true foolishness...
"Master, does this mean that those who attain enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment will become weaker and weaker in the future?" Ye Zi was very clever and grasped the core of the problem directly, asking the question.
"You could say that."
Su Yu nodded and slowly said, "In the future, there will be no such thing as a Royal Path expert. Given the current size of the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, the maximum number of Supreme Dao Fruit positions can be maintained at a long-term level, which is already five. No one else can reach the Supreme Path. Dao Fruit is more appropriately described as the Supreme Dao Fruit."
"Master, you're so domineering, blocking everyone else's path by yourself." Ye Zi frowned, very unhappy, feeling that something that belonged to her had been taken away from her.
"The weak are the myriad paths, what does that have to do with me?" Su Yu shook his head.
He merely restored the old rules to the Nine Heavens; what was wrong with that?
Moreover, by doing this, it becomes even easier for beings from the outside world to achieve enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment; they should now be considered to have reached the Supreme Realm, which should be considered a great blessing.
Without him, Dao Yi, Taichu, the Di Huang, and others would have had to wait at least four or five hundred years to truly achieve Alternative Dao Attainment; that final hurdle wouldn't be easy to overcome.
As for the claim of Dao Yi...
"You are blessed but do not know how blessed you are. Do you know that your resonance with the Chaos Sea is equivalent to tempering the Supreme Chain on your body once, saving you a hundred years of arduous cultivation? People outside do not have such an opportunity."
"I was originally thinking of giving you a little more Ultimate Dao Laws, since your cultivation level is quite unstable. But it seems I should pass now." Su Yu shook his head, looked his disciple over, and got up to leave.
Upon hearing that she could obtain the Ultimate Dao Laws, Ye Zi's eyes lit up immediately. She ran over and hugged Su Yu's waist, calling him "good brother" and begging him to bestow some of the Ultimate Dao Laws upon her.
"Master, please have mercy! I'm not as good as the others..." Ye Zi pleaded. She had experienced firsthand how terrifying the geniuses of the outside world were; at the same level, she was no match for her father.
She didn't want to be known as the weakest Supreme.
Under the girl's gentle persuasion, Su Yu finally softened and gestured, "Since you need the Ultimate Dao Laws, go and fetch some utensils."
"Huh? A vessel?"
After a month of seclusion in the Bronze Immortal Palace, Ye Zi finally emerged from seclusion. The Supreme Chain within her body also radiated true ultimate light, making her worthy of being called a master of the Imperial Path.
She no longer concealed her aura; her Dao imprint rose in the Great Luo Heaven, like a radiant golden sun, visible to all.
Amidst the clamor of the world and the trembling of the ten wastelands, a Great Accomplishment Sacred Body has emerged in this Lifetime. The Ye Family and Ji Family are decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers to celebrate the birth of a royal-level expert in their families.
Ye Zi's arrival shook the Ji Family.
Ji Zi personally greeted Ye Zi with great solemnity, personally welcoming her and inviting her into the carriage. This was the highest level of courtesy, as the visitor was a Great Accomplishment Sacred Body, a realm he had not yet reached.
Ye Fan also appeared, standing at the entrance of the mansion to greet his daughter.
During this process, his expression turned somewhat unpleasant, but it was quickly overshadowed by the joy of seeing his daughter.
Returning home in glory was something Ye Zi had once longed for, but now she felt indifferent. Her mind was still preoccupied with the information from the Bronze Immortal Palace, unable to move on.
"Even if Father and Ji Zi Himeko reach the Supreme Realm in the future, they will not be able to obtain the Ultimate Dao Laws... Master is truly terrifying."
She murmured to herself, filled with emotion, as if she were witnessing the changing of an era.
"At the current rate, it's unknown how long it will take before the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths trigger the Immortal Ascension Tribulation again."
Inside the bronze hall, Su Yu murmured to himself, feeling that time was still moving too slowly. He couldn't wait that long, so he had to resort to the second method.
The Road to Immortality on Flying Immortal Star!
" Immortal Two in Lifetime..." Su Yu's eyes shone with divine brilliance.
In another timeline, those who became immortals were half Laozi, half Sakyamuni, as well as Ji Ziyue and Ye Zi.
Clearly, these two or three refer to Supreme -level beings. If they hadn't touched that line, they should have been able to cross it four or five times...
Time passed by, and hundreds of years went by in the blink of an eye. Su Yu sat in the palace to comprehend the Dao. His bone age was over a thousand years old, but his blood and energy were even more vigorous.
After hundreds of years of enlightenment, his current state has reached its absolute peak.
The World Tree has also evolved to the pinnacle of humanity; if placed in the Immortal Ancient or Chaotic Ancient Era, it might be able to attempt to transcend the Immortal Tribulation at this moment...
During this time, Ye Fan achieved great success. With the tacit approval of the Chaos Hall, he led his subordinates from the Heavenly Pivot Manor to start anew and became another major force in the universe.
On Flying Immortal Star, the central seal was cracked, and various beams of Flying Immortal shot out, illuminating the Human World with auspicious glow, and the grandeur of the Immortal Domain could be vaguely seen.
The winds of change are blowing, and the restricted area is in turmoil.
This time, a total of eight Supreme emerged, determined to follow this path, and charged in.
Some of the world's greatest figures also participated, clashing with the ancient beings of the Primordial Ancient Mine in a life-or-death battle.
In the end, Taichu bled and was no match for the Great Ancient Emperor, and was almost devoured by the creatures of the forbidden zone.
He has attained the Fallen Laws of Myriad Paths, which are somewhat different from the Imperial Path. He can put up a fight, but the forbidden zone has the potential for further sublimation, making his defeat almost inevitable.
Having learned from the mistakes of the Taichu, later generations of outstanding individuals were terrified and dared not act rashly again.
"There were more baby dragons in this Lifetime, but it still wasn't enough."
On the Road to Immortality, an Ancient Emperor, his mouth stained crimson, absorbed the blood of Immortal Fetus with great satisfaction. His teeth were gleaming white, and his entire being emanated an aura that seemed to survey the heavens above. He stared at some powerful beings in the shadows, regarding them as the greatest elixir of life.
The Myriad Dragon Emperor was also born. After a brief reunion with his daughter, this Dragon Ancestor departed, leaving behind a waterfall of Zixia as he wielded the Extreme Dao Emperor Armament and stormed onto the Immortal Road.
Under the combined attack of the eight Supreme, the Chaos Cave exploded, revealing the contingency plan left behind by the Emperor Zun: three great masters of the Imperial Path, all of whom were incredibly ancient figures. However, whether they were beings from the Chaotic Ancient Era times or mythical Heavenly Venerable, none could escape their predetermined fate and were sacrificed by the Emperor Zun across countless years.
This was a minor incident.
The challenger was as firm as iron, and even the phantom of the Emperor Zun was not spared. He shattered the ghostly figure and saw the Immortal Ascension Stele behind the formidable pass!
Immortal Two!
This stirred the hearts of the Ancient Supreme, filling them with immense excitement, to the point that they almost wanted to roar to the heavens.
Perhaps... I really can Flying Immortal in this Lifetime!
Millions of years of waiting will bear fruit in this Lifetime.
"Boom!"
Imperial aura surged, and blood-red battle halberds cleaved the Great Qian —this was a battle to seize immortality.
In the struggle for a spot, everyone fought fiercely, descending into a frenzied melee. In the end, even the heroes from the outside world couldn't hold back any longer, and the Di Huang, Southern Demon, Ye Fan, and Immortal Crow Lord joined forces and rushed in.
They might not be a match for the Ancient Supreme in a one-on-one fight, but when the four of them joined forces, they were fearless against the Great Ancient Emperor.
Soon, some fell, dying on the Immortal Road. The emperor's blood stained the heavens, and the enchanting yet cruel scene unfolded all the way, drifting along the Flying Immortal Star to Kunlun.
Blood and flesh flew everywhere, weapons clashed, and the Flying Immortal Star was transformed into a grinding wheel of flesh and blood. Even the Supreme Ancient Emperor was exhausted and constantly injured, because those he was fighting against were all beings of the same level.
During this process, Myriad Dragon Emperor withdrew and did not persist until the end.
Tian Xiao told them the truth early on, but they were not willing to give up and still wanted to try.
But they later discovered that the emperors' removal of the Gu poison was only the first step.
The ruler of Kun Court is lurking in the shadows, and the spots for immortality have already been decided.
They cannot compete with posterity.
Time flowed by, and when the final winner was decided on the main battlefield, Su Yu revived and suddenly opened his eyes. In the dim bronze hall, it was like two bolts of lightning piercing the night sky.
He stretched out a giant hand, reaching into the vast universe, like Immortal King descending to earth, shaking back an Ancient Emperor and covering the Immortal Gate.
"Ah, the Kun Master has been born. Indeed, this is the Road to Immortality. How could he possibly stand idly by?"
Exclamations erupted, and the world was shocked.
All experts, especially those above the Quasi-Emperor, sensed it, and then the entire world trembled, astonishing everyone.
The Chaos hand descended, carrying with it the most dazzling and Ultimate Dao Laws, domineering and transcendent, and thus forcibly seized control of the Immortal Gate.
The last remaining Great Ancient Emperor was enraged, his eyes turning red. He had fought his way to the end, how could he give up? He unleashed a furious attack, the perfect light of the ultimate path tearing through the sky, carrying the wails of countless ghosts, as if to restart the Lunhui. Even the Heavens trembled.
However, when that giant hand fell, all the Dao principles shattered, and the Ancient Emperor was covered up, dying tragically on the Immortal Gate Stele, with a miserable smile on his face before he died.
That leap at the last minute... it was truly unwilling!
On the other side, in the Undying Mountain mansion, a blurry figure sat cross-legged on a futon, surrounded by Chaos energy. She seemed to have existed since time immemorial and had never moved.
With a "thud," just as Su Yu made her move, she raised her hand, and a palm plunged into the vast starry sky. Everyone saw it—a cyan-gold hand covered the Immortal Gate of this universe. The Ancient Supreme being on this side was furious and unleashed Dazzling Strike with his imperial weapon.
His fate was already sealed.
The lapis lazuli chain fell away, and the ancient Supreme, covered in blood, exploded inch by inch, disappearing from the Human World.
Those who witnessed all of this were terrified, knowing that there would be no ripples in this Lifetime; how could the Supreme of the forbidden zone possibly stand against two Heavenly Emperor?
With the dust settled, the two giants appeared and arrived Immortal Gate.
Outside the Flying Immortal Star, Sakyamuni, Laozi Shennong, the Yellow Emperor, Taichu, and others all appeared, their eyes filled with hope as they looked at the Immortal Gate, but they also knew that this was not something they could hope for.
Su Yu's hair was disheveled, and his body was surrounded by Chaos light. He looked at the Immortal Gate without saying a word, his state of mind was very complicated.
This door spans an entire era!
It represents so much!
"Who in the world can ascend to immortality and awaken from this dream? Now it's time to wake up."
He sighed softly, ascending the path to heaven, singing as he went, his finger Shrouding the Heavens; the end of this Lifetime lay Immortal Gate.
Ye Fan stepped forward respectfully and inquired, "Greetings, Lord of the Deep and Kun Master! We wish to ask Your Excellency, is the realm beyond this gate truly the Immortal Domain?"
As Ye Fan spoke, he seemed lost. Although he believed in the existence of True Immortal, no one could say for sure whether this Road to Immortality led to the Immortal Domain.
The others' eyes lit up as well. This question was truly captivating; even the Great Ancient Emperor found it difficult to remain calm and wanted to know the answer.
Su Yu stood with his hands behind his back, not responding to the crowd.
He rolled up his sleeves, bringing several men with him, and tried to push them inside.
At the critical moment, a powerful Xian Dao fluctuation erupted from the Heavens Island, causing the universe to tremble. Rolling radiance flowed like water, and an ancient bell shot up, surrounded by billions of auspicious clouds, its entire body mottled yet crystalline. The Supreme from Burial Heaven Island, Immortal Mausoleum, and Primordial Ancient Mine emerged together, along with the Supreme who had previously been seriously injured but had not died, making a total of eleven.
They found the Immortal Bell and, at the moment the Immortal Gate opened, intended to carry out a final purge and storm into the Immortal Domain.
This is the biggest variable!
The emperors' hunt trapped the Immortal Gate, and their attack wasn't just aimed at Su Yu and the Lord of the Deep; Ye Fan and others were also within their range, and these people would become their mortal medicine.
