The Dark Emperor Venerable escaped with the Immortal Sword, which surprised Xiao Ping'an. The two of them chased after him but could not find any trace of Dark Emperor Venerable.
Then Hundun Heavenly Venerable returned to the Primordial Ancient Mine, while Xiao Ping'an returned to the Underworld.
On this day, the figure of a Supreme being flashed by and arrived in the Underworld.
This person, holding a stone staff and with Immortal Ascension Cauldron on his head, was none other than Chuan Ying.
When Xiao Ping'an saw Chuan Ying again, he couldn't help but sigh at the passage of time.
Chuan Ying's youthful face exuded a Supreme aura that seemed incongruous with his appearance.
The dusty stone staff in his hand and the Immortal Ascension Cauldron radiating green light above his head gave him an air of dominance over the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
Although he attained enlightenment through Alternative Dao Attainment, after so many years of cultivation, he is now comparable to ordinary Supreme.
Perhaps in order to protect the remaining God Organization of the Heavenly Court, he has never attained enlightenment, and is in a state of having the strength of an enlightened being, but deliberately sealing it.
Chuan Ying did not greet Xiao Ping'an upon their first meeting.
Buzzing.
The Immortal Ascension Cauldron emitted a thunderous roar, along with a green glow that sent countless Hundun cascading down.
The dusty gray stone rod, like a giant gray dragon, charged towards Xiao Ping'an.
Its supreme divine power Shrouding the Heavens, causing even the Underworld to boil with excitement.
Xiao Ping'an extended two fingers and gently tapped.
The Immortal Ascension Cauldron and the dragon-like stone rod flew back with a thud.
Their weapon deities let out mournful cries.
" Chuan Ying, what brings you here today?" Xiao Ping'an asked calmly.
Out of admiration for Chuan Ying's suppression of the Dark Supreme of the Underworld, as mentioned in the original text, Xiao Ping'an did not kill him, but instead let the matter pass by lightly.
Chuan Ying looked at the Overlord Heavenly Venerable in front of him, who was exactly the same as the one he had seen back then, except that his aura was much stronger.
He was now certain that the person before him was still Overlord Heavenly Venerable, and not a corpse that had become a spirit.
Upon hearing Overlord Heavenly Venerable's words, Chuan Ying's face showed a hint of hesitation and struggle.
Then he lifted up the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, from which a green glow filled the sky.
"Does the Overlord Heavenly Venerable sense that this Immortal Ascension Cauldron is different from before, seemingly much weaker?"
"Yes, this Immortal Artifact feels like it's useless. Although it's still a genuine Immortal Artifact, it doesn't feel much stronger than Extreme Dao Weapon," Xiao Ping'an said.
Xiao Ping'an's gaze turned to the interior of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. In the vast Hundun and layers upon layers of Great Dao Runes, he saw the appearance of the weapon deity inside, a figure exactly the same as the Emperor Venerable.
Although he still exuded an incredibly powerful aura, even the aura of immortals, it appeared very unstable.
It sometimes exudes the aura of Heavenly Venerable, and sometimes the aura of Immortal Artifact, as if it were about to transform into the Dao Yi.
Xiao Ping'an sensed that aura and suddenly a thought struck him, "Could it be that the weapon deity of this Immortal Ascension Cauldron is no longer the original weapon deity?"
With a wave of his hand, he forcefully snatched the Immortal Ascension Cauldron away.
Upon seeing this, Chuan Ying was extremely anxious, but he was firmly frozen in place.
Then he saw Xiao Ping'an take out the White Bone Saber, suppress Chuan Ying and the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, and stare at the weapon deity inside with great interest, as if he wanted to dig it out and eat it.
After studying it for a while, he said, "Could it be that the Emperor Venerable has merged with the weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron? Why is the aura of this weapon deity so strange?"
Xiao Ping'an's words sent chills down Chuan Ying's spine: Had the Emperor Venerable's secret been exposed?
Although Chuan Ying came to find Xiao Ping'an because the Emperor Venerable in the Immortal Ascension Cauldron had a problem, he didn't expect to be exposed as soon as they met.
He couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine; Xiao Ping'an's strength had actually reached this level?
On the surface, the Emperor Venerable had already been killed by the combined forces of the group.
The Heavenly Court has long since collapsed and disintegrated; the God Organization doesn't even dare to use the name of the Heavenly Court.
However, Xiao Ping'an could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with the Immortal Ascension Cauldron.
"You jest, Overlord Heavenly Venerable. The Emperor Venerable died long ago at the hands of the Heavenly Venerable. This place is merely the Emperor Venerable's weapon deity."
Xiao Ping'an chuckled, " Chuan Ying, if you're coming to me for help, you must be honest. If you say that, I won't help you."
Xiao Ping'an looked at Chuan Ying and said, "I can tell at a glance that the Emperor Venerable's true spirit has probably merged with the weapon deity of this Immortal Ascension Cauldron, or rather, it has replaced the weapon deity and become the weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron."
"Now, if he wants to come back to life, he must break this Immortal Ascension Cauldron, but you cannot break the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, nor can you protect him to grow and prove his Dao anew, is that right?"
Hearing Xiao Ping'an's words, Chuan Ying was also startled.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Ping'an had such sharp insight that he saw through the problem at a glance.
Chuan Ying was constantly worried, worried that the news that the Emperor Venerable was not dead would be exposed, and worried that the Emperor Venerable had misjudged him and was betrayed by Xiao Ping'an.
However, since the Emperor Venerable has entrusted the God Organization to Chuan Ying's leadership with such confidence, Chuan Ying must live up to this trust.
Chuan Ying was certain that Overlord Heavenly Venerable's strength remained unfathomable; after so many tens of thousands of years, he hadn't even slashed himself, and hadn't died.
Instead, he truly came back to life and even proved himself once again.
" Chuan Ying, besides you and me, there shouldn't be anyone else who knows the Emperor Venerable's secret, right?" Xiao Ping'an said.
Chuan Ying nodded and solemnly bowed to Xiao Ping'an.
"Before the Emperor Venerable fell into slumber, he told me that if he did not emerge from Nirvana as planned, I should go and find the Overlord Heavenly Venerable."
Xiao Ping'an nodded in satisfaction and said, "Tell me the whole story first, so I can sort out what happened."
Chuan Ying said, "After the Emperor Venerable was supposed to be killed, he did not actually die."
"However, it became extremely weak and had no choice but to merge with the weapon of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, beginning a difficult transformation."
"However, after so many years of fusion, he has completely merged with the weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, and can no longer transcend it to become human."
"Although the Emperor Venerable survived thanks to the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, he, like a weapon deity, frequently falls into long periods of slumber, making it impossible for him to continue cultivating."
"Thousands of years ago, after the Emperor Venerable awakened, he told me that the Dark Emperor Venerable had been resurrected, and his situation was becoming increasingly dangerous. He not only had to face the terrifying revenge of the Dark Supreme, but also had to be wary of the Dark Emperor Venerable."
"Now, the Emperor Venerable's true spirit is about to completely transform into a weapon deity, and I do not have the strength to break through the Immortal Ascension Cauldron. Some time ago, I sensed your aura from the great battle in the Chaos Sea, and I wanted to go find you then."
"But I hesitated for a long time before coming here."
"Actually, my original plan was to wield the Immortal Ascension Cauldron, incite a Supreme war among the gods, and have all those Dark Supreme shatter the Immortal Ascension Cauldron together. But I was worried about losing control and things becoming uncontrollable."
Xiao Ping'an nodded, then began to circulate the Emperor Venerable's cultivation techniques and secret arts, attempting to awaken the weapon deity.
Buzzing.
The plate, amidst countless Great Dao Runes, appeared to be Immortal Ascension Cauldron, or a deity, seemingly in the deepest slumber, emanating the aura of Immortal Artifact.
If one were not very familiar with the Emperor Venerable, one would definitely think that this weapon deity is the same weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron.
This Emperor Venerable seems to share the same idea as the Azure Emperor of later generations: to suppress the weapon deity of the Desolate Pagoda and evolve the Immortal Domain within the Immortal Artifact. This can be considered an alternative method of becoming an immortal, or rather, treating the Immortal Artifact as an alternative forbidden zone.
Now, with the help of this Immortal Artifact weapon, the Emperor Venerable is faintly exuding the aura of True Immortal.
Although he did not become True Immortal due to the suppression of the Great Dao rules in this world, his strength at the Heavenly Venerable level was definitely not fake.
At this moment, the Emperor Venerable was radiating immortal runes all over his body, and his body seemed not to be a physical body, but rather to be completely constructed from immortal runes.
As Xiao Ping'an circulated his cultivation technique, the Emperor Venerable's body was suddenly filled with boundless blood energy and vitality.
Sensing that the Emperor Venerable was about to be resurrected, Xiao Ping'an activated the Netherworld Venerable's technique.
The Netherworld Venerable's cultivation methods are extremely unique, especially when it comes to reincarnation or the birth of a true spirit, in which no one can surpass him.
Xiao Ping'an's goal is to awaken the true Emperor Venerable, allowing him to truly become a human again, transcending his status as a weapon deity.
As the immortal runes burst forth, the sleeping Emperor Venerable finally slowly opened his eyes.
Although he looked exactly like the Emperor Venerable, his eyes were filled with confusion.
It took a very long time for it to transform from a weapon deity into a flesh-and-blood body.
He looked at Xiao Ping'an with an incredulous expression on his face.
" Overlord Heavenly Venerable, you didn't cut yourself off, yet you've survived until now." The Emperor Venerable's face was full of shock.
Xiao Ping'an said, "Of course, I, the Red Dust Immortal Path."
"Have you failed on the Red Dust Immortal Path, now that you've become like this?" The Emperor Venerable's eyes flickered, and he said with a smile, " Overlord Heavenly Venerable."
"The biggest reason I became like this is because I was possessed by that Dark Weird creature, and I was caught in the crossfire."
"Originally, I planned to merge with the weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron and transform into Battle Immortal. However, after so much time cultivating, I suddenly realized that only by following the Red Dust Immortal Path step by step can one truly reach that realm. It's simply impossible to become Battle Immortal like Mortal World Immortal all at once."
Xiao Ping'an was also taken aback, not expecting that this Emperor Venerable, after his rebirth, would have such great ambitions.
Thinking that I could become Red Dust Immortal Ascension so quickly.
The immortal laws within the Immortal Ascension Cauldron Immortal Ascension Cauldron the world within it a separate realm, unaffected by the suppression of the Great Dao of this world.
However, to become Battle Immortal by relying on the immortal laws within is simply wishful thinking.
"I also think it's impossible to become Battle Immortal. One must accumulate enough merit to even have a chance of Red Dust Immortal Ascension," Xiao Ping'an said.
"I only recently came to understand this principle myself. After so many years of merging with the weapon deity, if I don't transcend, I will truly become a weapon myself."
Listening to the Emperor Venerable's words, Xiao Ping'an thought of the twin sisters. They were in excellent condition and seemed capable of lasting for two or three million years.
The latest novels are first published on 69shuba!
They transformed into weapon deities when their blood and energy were at their peak, while this Emperor Venerable only left behind a wisp of his true spirit before merging with the weapon deities.
"After my birth, I plan to revert to my original secular name, which will be Yu Feng."
"Once I attain enlightenment again, I don't plan to live in this world anymore. I intend to go to a secluded world where the Longevity Substance are relatively abundant," the Emperor Venerable said.
Xiao Ping'an was also taken aback by the Emperor Venerable's words.
Unexpectedly, the Emperor Venerable has also discovered that wondrous world in the crevice.
The world he was referring to was Strange World situated between the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths and the Immortal Domain.
It possesses a small amount of Longevity Substance and is evolving into Immortal Domain. The cultivation environment there is much better than in this world, and people there also live longer.
Xiao Ping'an had a vague feeling that the other world was getting closer and closer to this world, but that was all.
That world will never willingly merge with this world.
After all, this is a training ground personally crafted by the Desolate Heaven Emperor, and he certainly wouldn't allow other worlds to haphazardly merge into it.
The Immortal Domain he created is constantly evolving. One day it might be used to repair the Immortal Domain, but it will definitely not be used to conquer the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.
The Overlord Heavenly Venerable said, "So, even you, Emperor Venerable, have vaguely sensed that world."
"That is indeed a transit point on the way to the Immortal Domain. If you go there, you might actually have some unexpected gains."
Xiao Ping'an thought that the Emperor Venerable in the original text seemed to have lived several lifetimes in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths before running off to Strange World.
It seems he became Mortal World Immortal in that world.
Aside from that local soy sauce -Mortal World Immortal, it should be the Emperor Venerable, this Mortal World Immortal.
The Undying Heavenly Emperor and the Great Emperor Wushi both became Mortal World Immortal in that world, which shows that that world is indeed very magical and powerful.
Even the Emperor Venerable hadn't expected that Xiao Ping'an would also know about that world.
He was also very surprised to see Xiao Ping'an alive and well without having cut himself.
At this moment, he looked at Xiao Ping'an carefully, as if trying to see through him.
But in the end, nothing could be discerned; all that could be felt was that Xiao Ping'an's blood and energy were surging, his vitality was vigorous, and he was full of life.
Their strength is much greater than before.
Now, the Emperor Venerable was quite surprised to sense that the Dark Emperor Venerable had actually lived for the sixth time.
He never imagined that after his body was possessed by that Dark Weird, it would undergo such a rapid transformation and sublimation.
Although he had already prepared the methods for living a new Lifetime, the Dark Weird that followed had also evolved and upgraded, which he could no longer bear.
When that strange entity took over his body, he tried his best to resist, but ultimately he couldn't defy fate.
The two were on guard against each other when they were finally killed by numerous Supreme.
Now the Dark Emperor Venerable has been resurrected, but the true Emperor Venerable has merged with the weapon deity of the Immortal Ascension Cauldron.
For someone as proud as the Emperor Venerable, it is absolutely unacceptable for Dark Weird to use his name to do evil without benefiting himself in any way.
He did not marry or have children; he only wanted to rush along the path of the Great Dao, hoping to Red Dust Immortal Ascension.
The reason he has now taken the initiative to come to Chuan Ying and ask him to find Xiao Ping'an is because he feels that he cannot see through Xiao Ping'an.
Whenever he tried to deduce Xiao Ping'an's fate, he felt that the secrets of heaven were shrouded in mystery.
Moreover, Xiao Ping'an also successfully embarked on the Red Dust Immortal Path, and even walked it more steadily than him.
Although the Emperor Venerable had lived two more lifetimes, he felt that the strength of the Overlord Heavenly Venerable was definitely not to be underestimated.
The Emperor Venerable of yesteryear, after painstaking planning, finally opened the Road to Immortality at the right time and in the right place.
Originally, I planned to lead everyone to immortality, so that we wouldn't be weak and alone when we entered the Immortal Domain.
He truly hadn't expected that the Heavenly Gate of this Immortal Domain Realm would be so wary of strange creatures.
In the blink of an eye, all the effort turned to ashes.
The Road to Immortality can no longer be opened; it's inaccessible.
Thinking back to when he was besieged by numerous Supreme, the Emperor Venerable still felt lingering fear and worried about being targeted again.
After all, he could sense that many of the Dark Supreme who had besieged him back then were still alive.
Furthermore, the other Dark Supreme who did not follow him into the Immortal Domain were also somewhat resentful of him, or even watched coldly from the sidelines.
If they found out now that the Emperor Venerable was in trouble, they would definitely kill Emperor Venerable.
The Emperor Venerable is now gambling, betting that Xiao Ping'an will not kill him, but will sincerely help him.
" Overlord Heavenly Venerable, why don't we enter that Strange World together? That way we can look after each other," the Emperor Venerable sincerely suggested.
Xiao Ping'an shook his head and smiled slightly, " Your Emperor Venerable, you may go if you wish. The Strange World does indeed have more rare treasures and more opportunities, but I have made up my mind and vowed to become Red Dust Immortal Ascension in this mortal world. If I ever enter the Immortal Domain, I will definitely visit Your Emperor Venerable in the Strange World first."
Xiao Ping'an's words seemed very calm, but they were filled with unparalleled confidence.
He firmly believed that even if he couldn't enter the Immortal Domain, he could still live on in these Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, Lifetime Lifetime.
The Emperor Venerable nodded.
Although he didn't quite agree with Xiao Ping'an's views, he still acknowledged Xiao Ping'an's strength.
After all, no one has yet successfully achieved Red Dust Immortal Ascension; everything is just theoretical speculation.
If only it were possible to become Red Dust Immortal Ascension.
Whether Xiao Ping'an goes to that Strange World or not, the Emperor Venerable has already made up his mind that he must Red Dust Immortal Ascension in that world, he must go to that world.
Of course, there was also the intention of temporarily avoiding that Dark Emperor Venerable.
He certainly didn't want to be swallowed whole by that terrifyingly powerful Dark Emperor Venerable after his birth.
" Your Emperor Venerable, your Humanoid Undying Divine Medicine has vanished without a trace," Xiao Ping'an said.
Xiao Ping'an initially thought he had recovered the humanoid Immortal Medicine, but his joy was short-lived. It was not the real Humanoid Undying Divine Medicine, but rather Semi-Divine Medicine cultivated from a fallen bud of a divine herb.
The Emperor Venerable shook his head. "He didn't fly back into my hands; perhaps that Dark Emperor Venerable snatched him away."
Then, a flash of light appeared in the Emperor Venerable's hand, followed by an alluring fragrance that made one feel as if they could Ascension with just one Flying Immortal.
Xiao Ping'an's eyes lit up. "This is actually an Immortal Divine Medicine I've never seen before!"
The Immortal Divine Medicine was a small tree, crimson red like blood, crystal clear, as if it had been refined from the King of Crimson Jade, shining brightly, and containing an aura of immortality.
Xiao Ping'an did not see this Immortal Divine Medicine Immortal Divine Medicine the original text, nor did he find it in the historical records of that time.
He could only marvel at the Emperor Venerable's incredible luck in discovering this Emperor Venerable herb, a man of great fortune indeed.
"I discovered this by chance in the Chaos Sea. It doesn't have a name yet, so I'll call it Crimson Wood," the Emperor Venerable said with a smile.
Xiao Ping'an nodded. Whatever the name, it's up to the Emperor Venerable to be happy.
After all, it was a treasure he found for free.
