Chapter 204 [Supreme Number Like a Sow Giving Birth]
"Thump, thump..."
The Qing Emperor's heart beat inside Gai Jiuyou's chest, bringing vigorous vitality and making the sick old man's face look a little rosy.
The sound of flowing blood echoed inside the dry body, and as time passed, it became louder and louder, like the roar of a rushing river, deafening like thunder.
Gai Jiuyou straightened his back, standing tall and upright, emitting a soaring aura, like a god who created the world. His sparse white hair began to turn into black hair, draped over his shoulders, he was extremely handsome and no longer old.
"Is this to repair the wound?"
Lin Xian couldn't help but be surprised. Is the Green Emperor so fierce? I'll try two kilograms of it some other day. The few drops of blood essence used for foundation building are too little, and I can't taste it.
"It hasn't completely dissolved." Gai Jiuyou coughed violently several times, with such force that it seemed as if he was going to cough out his heart and lungs. Fortunately, he forced it down in the end and stabilized his condition.
His Dao injuries were still there, but relying on the surging blood and energy of the Green Emperor's heart, he regained vitality, regained his peak combat power, and returned to the realm that should have belonged to him.
Those who have achieved enlightenment in other ways are on par with the great emperors and can live for ten thousand years. Nine thousand years is not Gai Jiuyou’s limit. He should have another thousand years of life left, but he was in his twilight years and had not reached the point of passing away.
It was only because he failed in his attempt to attack the emperor, suffered Taoist injuries, and his blood energy was declining that he looked so old.
A truly strong person can still maintain his invincible fighting power until the second before he passes away.
Just like the Holy Body of Mars, he could drag a supreme being to be buried with him in his later years, so no one dared to look for him if there was anything ominous.
Another example is the Holy Cliff Body, who was unable to do this, and his fighting power declined in his later years, leading to revenge by the Immortal Taoist, which led to his unforeseen tragic death.
This is the difference between initial alternative enlightenment and complete alternative enlightenment.
Lin Xian's eyes lit up instantly, and he asked, "Can we enter the life restricted area?"
An alternative person who has achieved enlightenment, plus six imperial weapons, this lineup is luxurious enough to sweep across the universe. We can now consider the possibility of enemies coming from the sky.
"The Supreme One also has imperial weapons."
Gai Jiuyou shook his head, sighed, looked towards the East Desert, and murmured, "No one knows how many supreme beings there are in the restricted area."
When the Supreme One launches a dark turmoil and the powerful men of the time go to quell it, it is completely different from the alternative enlightened ones going deep into the forbidden area.
The former belongs to the cyclical cycle of the dragon slayer eventually becoming the evil dragon, which is the unspoken rule tacitly accepted by the Life Forbidden Zone and the contemporary emperor.
You came into the world in search of food and offended the emperor of the time and invaded the territory of an enlightened being. You were beaten to death regardless of life or death. The Forbidden Zone of Life will not avenge the supreme being who came into the world. If you are dead, you are dead.
We are all fellow Taoists who come here to seek immortality, not comrades-in-arms who share life and death together. The ultimate goal is to achieve immortality.
The latter is a direct provocation to a forbidden area. It would be fine if there are only one or two supreme beings, but now the road to immortality has not yet been opened, and the supreme beings have not been consumed, so they are all gathered in groups of three or five.
"The Immortal Mountain has the fewest Supreme Beings. It is the core area for the great emperors of all generations to quell unrest. The Void Emperor killed more than one Supreme Being of the Immortal Mountain, and in his later years, he even took two of them with him to be buried with him."
"There are probably only three or four Supreme Beings in Immortal Mountain right now, and the number of Supreme Beings in Taichu Ancient Mine is the largest, probably more than ten."
Lin Xian thought about it, told all his information, and discussed with Gai Jiuyou which life forbidden zone was the weakest.
"More than ten, the sow is giving birth." Hearing the number of Supremes in the Taichu Ancient Mine, Gai Jiuyou was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but swear.
If more than a dozen emperors were to ascend at the same time, I'm afraid that the entire universe would be destroyed.
"The Taichu Ancient Mine, this life restricted area is somewhat special. It was once the place where the ancient order was located, and it was not all filled with the Dark Supreme."
Lin Xian gave Gai Jiuyou some basic knowledge. This fairyland was not originally a forbidden zone for life. It was just the habitat of the Ancient Emperor after he committed suicide. The strongest royal families in the ancient times and the royal family holding the Ancient Emperor's Order could enter and communicate with the dormant ancestors.
In a nutshell, in the ancient times, the Taichu Ancient Mine was the United Nations of the ancient myriad races. One of the Supremes represented a royal seat, and they jointly divided the ancient order, which could be called the Divine Court. As time passed, some of the ancient emperors in the Taichu Ancient Mine gradually couldn't stand it anymore, and two factions emerged at this time.
In order to avoid launching dark turmoil, some ancient emperors sealed themselves in the deepest level to reduce consumption. They ignored anything from the outside world and just waited for the path to immortality to open.
Some ancient emperors chose to launch a dark turmoil, causing the Taichu Ancient Mine to gradually become a forbidden zone for life in the ancient times.
"Time is like a knife that cuts off a genius. Is this what you have cultivated for a lifetime?" Gai Jiuyou sighed, "It's all a disaster for becoming an immortal."
Most of the disasters and misfortunes in the world are caused by the pursuit of immortality.
Is it right? Is it wrong? Outsiders cannot judge, just like a person who drinks water knows whether it is hot or cold.
Lin Xian then took inventory of the four major life forbidden zones: Heaven, God's Ruins, Immortal Mausoleum, and Samsara Sea. If the Underworld was added, then the number of Dark Supremes would be more than thirty, and it is very likely to be approaching the forty mark!
Gai Jiuyou felt his scalp tingling after hearing this. He had wanted to sweep away the Supreme Being and regain his dignity, but at this moment he restrained himself and said thoughtfully, "We have to think about it in the long run."
No wonder Qingdi, Wushi and Henren, the emperors of heaven, did not eradicate the forbidden zone of life in one breath and solve the disaster for future generations.
It’s not that I don’t want to, but I really can’t do it. The cost is too high.
There are thirty or forty supreme beings now, so how many were there before the ancient times?
Including those who died naturally, those who were beheaded by great emperors of all dynasties, and those who were pacified by great saints and other kinds of enlightened beings, there are probably at least fifty or sixty of them.
Fifty or sixty great emperors have ascended together. This lineup is enough to fight against the true immortals. Even the Emperor of Heaven would be afraid of seeing it, for fear that they would perish together.
This is not just Lin Xian's speculation, but there is empirical evidence.
Ye Fan once sat for ten thousand years and glimpsed a corner of the future. The universe became empty and all life forbidden areas disappeared, including the thirty-four Dark Supremes and the Ruthless Emperor.
The forbidden zone of life cannot be eradicated overnight, it requires generations of people to reduce it.
If the two paths to immortality had not been opened consecutively, consuming a large number of supreme beings, the difficulty of pacifying the forbidden area would have been greatly increased.
On the other hand, the new heaven on Lin Xian's side, although the future is promising and a large number of powerful people will emerge in hundreds of years, at present there is only one supreme being, Gai Jiuyou. Even if Ye Fan, the reincarnation of the Emperor, is used to lure Chuan Ying, the first general of the ancient heaven, there are only two people, and the high-end combat power is really insufficient.
Gai Jiuyou must be strengthened. If the sky falls, there will be tall people watching. If Gai Jiuyou collapses, the pot will be able to crush Master Lin to death in one fell swoop.
"Besides the immortality elixir, is there anything else that can help senior in his cultivation?" Lin Xian asked.
"Even if there is, you can't find it." Gai Jiuyou shook his head, then slowly said: "When I was young, I had an adventure and broke into the cave of a mythical celestial being. I got some scriptures and later created my own path."
"If I could see a complete Heavenly Tribulation Skill, maybe I could improve my Immortal Tribulation Song."
The Heavenly Tribulation Art was created by the first Heavenly Tribulation Master in mythology. Its main purpose is to continuously transcend tribulations, and the greatest tribulation it must transcend is definitely the Tribulation of Death.
If you can survive the catastrophe of death, you will achieve immortality and become an immortal in this world.
Duan De has been accumulating the reincarnation seals in order to survive the death catastrophe and perfect his own tribulation-surviving skills.
After nine lives and nine deaths, he finally achieved perfection. Now is his fifth life.
"The Heavenly Art of Crossing Tribulation, the Immortal Song of Crossing Tribulation... It seems that you are the descendant of the Heavenly Master of Crossing Tribulation."
Gai Jiuyou's Taoism has always been a mystery, but now it has finally been solved. Lin Xian's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "Okay, I'll take you to see Duan De, maybe you will gain something."
"Xiao Ye, write a letter and tell Taoist Duan De that we are going to dig up the Chaos Dragon Nest. That is the tomb of the ruthless emperor."
"I swear on the statue of Cao Yusheng, the first generation Yuantian Patriarch, that I definitely did not lie to him this time."
"If we deceive people, our ancestor Cao Yusheng will resurrect after death and never rest in peace, and our lineage of Yuan Tianshi will have an unknown old age and be in a state of confusion."
