"Indeed, a beautiful woman is a beautiful woman; even in old age, she remains stunning!"
After three days, Wang Hao finally deactivated the Without Beginning Emperor Array set up in the Jade Lake Former Site, and then opened the two sealed coffins, revealing the parents of the Great Emperor Without Beginning, namely the Western Empress Mother once founded the Jade Pool Holy Land and a Great Accomplishment Sacred Body.
Although their bodies are old, their faces still maintain a youthful appearance, giving them a sense of being white-haired and childlike.
Clearly, the aging of a cultivator is different from that of an ordinary person. At least it's not difficult for them to maintain a youthful appearance, but that's all they can do.
Indeed, unlike other worlds, the Shrouding the Heavens World has flaws in its Great Dao and is disconnected from the Immortal Domain. Although the powerful beings in this world are formidable in combat, their lifespans are very limited, and they will still age and die.
Only after achieving the Red Dust Immortal can one generate longevity substances to sustain their lifespan and truly live as long as heaven and earth.
Unfortunately, although the Western Empress Mother became Great Emperor, she was only an Great Emperor of the eighth heaven, not Flawless Great Emperor of the Kunou heaven. She didn't even live a second life, and she was far from being a mortal Red Dust Immortal.
"There are many inscriptions left by ancient sages in the Jade Lake Former Site, which will be of great help to your cultivation. Go and take a look, and while you're at it, slowly refine this small world into your Wheel and Sea."
While studying the bodies of the Western Empress Mother and her husband, Wang Hao gave instructions to Liu Yiyi, who was standing at the edge of the Heavenly Pool, too afraid to come down.
Liu Yiyi was already terrified by the countless female corpses scattered throughout the bottom of the Heavenly Pool, and upon hearing this, she quickly ran away; the place was simply too creepy.
"Keep them all under control, and send them to the Jade Pool Holy Land later when the opportunity arises."
Wang Hao glanced at the female corpses around him and gave instructions to Ji Zi.
In the Shrouding the Heavens *, the Jade Pool Holy Land is one of the few powerful forces that are somewhat respectable. The female corpses here were all cultivators from the Jade Pool Holy Land, and they shouldn't have been left here to be abandoned in the wilderness.
"Yes!"
Nodding, Ji Zi casually took out a treasure and collected all the female corpses into it, waiting for the opportunity to send them to the Jade Pool Holy Land for burial in the future.
"Senior, is this the curse of the Sacred Body?"
After collecting all the female corpses, Ji Zi returned to her original spot and stared at the coffin containing the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body. The eerie aura emanating from it sent chills down her spine.
The appearance of this Great Accomplishment Sacred Body was truly too sinister, with countless green hairs covering his entire body, and the eerie aura he exuded made him feel extremely uneasy.
"S-senpai?"
Suddenly, Ji Zi noticed that Wang Hao was staring at her with a strange gaze, a look that made her involuntarily stand on end and sense a strong malice.
"Your Demonic Body is still one step away from being fully formed. I've analyzed it and there are two reasons: first, you lack an extremely dark energy as a catalyst; second, you lack the ultimate cultivation of demonic arts."
Although the legacy of the Great Emperor Chaotic Ancient belongs to the Devil Dao, it is not pure. Go to the Jade Pool Holy Land later and bring back the Empress Ruthless's Heaven-Devouring Devil Cultivation Method and Indestructible Heavenly Cultivation Method, along with their accompanying secret techniques.
With a smile, indicating that Ji Zi need not panic, Wang Hao calmly explained the two major challenges Ji Zi was currently facing.
It is extremely difficult to transform from the Eastern Wilderness Divine Body into Demonic Body. The Great Emperor Chaotic Ancient relied more on luck back then, which was a coincidence and is very difficult to replicate.
Even though Ji Zi cultivated the legacy of the Great Emperor Chaotic Ancient and had the guidance of the Great Emperor Chaotic Ancient's Demonic Body body, she was still stuck at the last step and unable to transform into a truly perfect Demonic Body.
In terms of cultivation techniques, Wang Hao had long set his sights on the inheritance of the Empress Ruthless, which was the most extreme demonic art. What he had been lacking was an extreme Dark Energy as a catalyst to refine the Demon Seed.
However, the curse power on the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body now matches Wang Hao's expectations, so he plans to transfer the Sacred Body Curse to Ji Zi.
"You mean the curse of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body?"
Swallowing hard, Ji Zi looked again at the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body covered in green fur, her heart pounding in her chest.
Simply approaching this cursed power made him feel extremely uneasy; he couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be if it were absorbed into his body.
That'll be a horrible death!
"Senior, how confident are I of success?"
After swallowing hard once more, Ji Zi felt she needed to ask carefully, lest she really end up in a situation where she had no chance of survival.
He wasn't afraid of death, but he feared dying in vain, especially now that the Road to Immortality was about to begin. The mission he carried prevented him from perishing prematurely.
"Don't worry, it's not a certain death sentence; at most, it's a nine out of ten chance of survival."
Wang Hao offered words of comfort with a smile, but these words of comfort only made Ji Zi's face turn green.
Such words of comfort are better left unheard!
"Senior, I will immediately go to the Shaking Light Holy Land to obtain the legacy of the Empress Ruthless."
Taking a deep breath, Ji Zi picked up the Void Mirror, opened a spatial passage, and headed to the Shaking Light Holy Land, intending to first obtain the demonic power inheritance of the Empress Ruthless.
Although he didn't know why the Empress Ruthless's legacy was in the Shaking Light Holy Land, since his senior had said so, then the Empress Ruthless's legacy must definitely be in the Shaking Light Holy Land.
" Innate Dao Fetus!"
Wang Hao was very satisfied with Ji Zi's decisiveness, and then turned his gaze back to the body of the Western Empress Mother in the coffin.
The Western Empress Mother herself possesses a top-tier special physique, being Innate Dao Fetus, a physique that is very compatible with the Great Dao.
However, it is only a very good fit, not a complete fusion with the Tao, reaching the state of oneness with the Tao.
Therefore, the Innate Dao Fetus is an incomplete state. Although its potential is strong, even surpassing the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body and comparable to the Acquired Chaos Physique, it is extremely difficult to fully tap into its potential.
Although the Western Empress Mother achieved the Great Emperor, she still failed to elevate her physical constitution beyond the realm of the Innate Dao Fetus.
Wang Hao had some suspicions about the Innate Dao Fetus, and the reason he had Ji Zi obtain the Innate Dao Diagram of the Ancient Desolate Sacred Body was to verify one of his suspicions.
However, before that, we must first revive the Western Empress Mother, or at least restore her physical body.
With his palm pressed against the forehead of the Western Empress Mother, Wang Hao used his own Divine Sense as a guide, combining it with the wisps of Sisi soul within the Western Empress Mother Mother's body to condense a Reincarnation Seal.
Having previously deciphered the secrets of the Reincarnation Seal within Duan De's body, he naturally possessed the ability to condense the Reincarnation Seal for others.
The Reincarnation Seal is extremely mysterious; it is a manifestation of the Power of Reincarnation, possessing the ability to allow cultivators to reincarnate continuously. In addition, it has many other wonderful uses.
Now, the Western Empress Mother possesses the Reincarnation Seal, which not only reverses life and death, restoring the life of deceased emperors, but also continuously gathers the remnants of souls scattered throughout the world, ultimately achieving the goal of reuniting the souls.
Of course, it would take a considerable amount of time to reunite the soul, at least tens of thousands of years, which was unacceptable to Wang Hao.
After all, given Liu Yiyi's current cultivation speed, she will reach the peak of the Wheel and Sea Secret Realm within a hundred years at most and then break through, after which she will have to start a new journey.
Fortunately, he had prepared for this. He took out the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon and planted it on the body of the Western Empress Mother. He used the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon's profound power to extract the extreme death energy from the body and transform it into life energy, thus accelerating the rebirth of the body.
With the blessing of the Green Lotus Emperor Weapon, the speed of the Western Empress Mother's body regeneration can be increased by hundreds or thousands of times, and she will be completely regenerated in just a few years.
"That's not enough!"
The Chaotic Ancient Emperor Axe had been watching from the sidelines, finally couldn't help but voice his doubts. Although such methods were very mysterious, in his opinion, they were far from enough to bring a Great Emperor back to life.
"This is just the initial preparation. Once her imperial body has recovered to its peak, I will use the Power of Reincarnation to draw out her Dao Fruit and True Spirit from her previous life and merge them into it, thus achieving resurrection."
While casually explaining, Wang Hao took out the Innate Dao Diagram and carefully integrated it into the Western Empress Mother, prompting her Innate Dao Fetus to undergo transformation.
The Western Empress Mother had already cultivated her Innate Dao Fetus physique to its peak level. Now, drawn by the Innate Dao Diagram, she immediately underwent inexplicable changes.
Unfortunately, only a slight, inexplicable change occurred; the two are still a long, long way from merging.
However, Wang Hao was well-prepared for this, using his own Divine Sense as a guide to merge the two.
This step is slow, estimated to take at least several decades, but it doesn't matter. Anyway, it would take Liu Yiyi several decades to completely devour the small world where the Jade Lake Former Site is located using the Wheel and Sea. He can stay here to continue guiding the evolution of the Western Empress Mother's physique.
"Boss, the Sacred Body over there seems to be undergoing another mutation."
Just as Wang Hao was guiding the Western Empress Mother to merge with the Innate Dao Diagram, the curse power on the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body suddenly became even more intense, and the eerie green hair on its surface was also slowly growing.
Noticing this change, the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Axe quickly spoke up to remind him.
Even a Great Emperor wouldn't dare underestimate a Great Accomplishment Sacred Body. Now that the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body has undergone a mutation, it would be disastrous if it gave birth to something ominous.
"It's alright, just make sure he doesn't come back to life."
Wang Hao casually remarked, then focused entirely on guiding the fusion of the Innate Dao Diagram, not even glancing at the changes in the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body.
He had anticipated this, after all, the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body had undergone an ominous change back then, even forcing the Jade Pool Holy Land to relocate.
Later, the Great Emperor Without Beginning came and sealed off this place, suppressing the abnormality of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body.
However, it was only a forced suppression, not a purification or elimination, so the source of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body's mutation remained.
Now that Wang Hao has deciphered the Without Beginning Emperor Array here and opened the coffin, the transformation of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body will naturally be activated again.
If this continues, the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body will inevitably transform into something ominous, causing a great calamity.
However, Wang Hao genuinely didn't care about this; in fact, he was quite pleased with it.
To guide Ji Zi's Eastern Wilderness Divine Body to transform into Demonic Body, a considerable amount of extreme Dark Energy is required; the limited reserves of that Great Accomplishment Sacred Body are far from sufficient.
The transformation of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body continues, drawing out even more cursed power. Now, Ji Zi has enough catalyst to transform into Demonic Body.
The Chaotic Ancient Emperor Axe seemed to have guessed Wang Hao's thoughts. While feeling admiration, it moved its main body to lie across the coffin of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body to prevent the other party from actually giving birth to an ominous resurrected corpse.
Although with their lineup, even if the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body were to truly rise from the dead, they could forcibly suppress it back into existence, the powerful figure beside them was clearly handling important matters. It would be disastrous if the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body were to rise from the dead and disturb that powerful figure.
Therefore, it is best to take preventative measures and nip the possibility of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body resurrecting in the bud.
With the Chaotic Ancient Emperor Axe as a suppressor, all the curse power was contained within the coffin, further accelerating the transformation of the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body.
Unfortunately, due to the suppression of the supreme imperial might, even if more cursed power was generated, it was difficult for the Great Accomplishment Sacred Body to give birth to something ominous and thus rise from the dead.
Now we just wait for Ji Zi to return, and then continuously extract and absorb these cursed powers, condensing them into Demon Seed to guide the transformation of the Divine Body.
