Chapter 269 [It’s broken, I became the Green Emperor] (4700)
"Tons, tons, tons, tons..."
Cup after cup of Wudao tea was filled with fragrance and shrouded in fairy light. Lin Xian was like a god descending to the earth, standing above the nine heavens and overlooking the human body universe.
Just like an immortal king knocking on the gates and breaking open one dragon gate after another, the Yellow River flows into the sea, the real dragon ascends to heaven, and the great trend will be accomplished.
As long as he wanted, he could push open that door at any time and leap into the ninth heaven.
Fortunately, Lin Xian retained a trace of rationality and suppressed this instinct. He did not seek death by undergoing the heavenly tribulation in the forbidden zone of life. It was fun to endure the tribulation in the Immortal Mountain, but it would be the crematorium for the supreme settlement.
If a small calamity connects to a big calamity, and the entanglement of cause and effect drags down the imperial calamity of the Supreme of the Immortal Mountain, that would be a lot of fun.
After a long silence, the enlightenment tea was almost cold, and the Ancient Emperor Xuanwu sighed: "The Emperor has not become an immortal, and the Emperor cannot ascend to the immortal realm. Isn't the eternal path to immortality a shocking scam? Is the immortal realm really so unattainable?"
"Did the legendary Emperor Huang Tian, who ascended to the Immortal Realm, really become an immortal, or did he fail at the last moment like the Emperor?"
The Emperor failed, the Emperor of Heaven failed, the ancient immortal road also failed, and now we are at the crossroads of becoming an immortal. Will anyone succeed in this life?
Even though the Ancient Emperor Xuanwu did not fight for the path to immortality, he still felt a sense of desolation and could not help but feel grief for the loss of the rabbit.
"The Emperor and the Emperor of Heaven are not talking about it. The Emperor of Desolate Heaven must have become an immortal."
Lin Xian said with absolute certainty: "He once established the Heavenly Court and created an incomparably glorious Immortal Dynasty."
"Where is the evidence?" Ancient Emperor Xuanwu asked back, "The Desolate Tower cannot represent everything, and the Emperor has also forged an Immortal Cauldron."
"Those paths to immortality are proof of the existence of Emperor Huang Tian."
Lin Xian looked calm, but said with great certainty: "The fairyland and the human world are two large universes. Occasionally, they will pass by each other and there will be cracks, but there will be no natural roads."
"The road to becoming an immortal was opened up by humans. It is a series of spatial nodes. Some of them are almost connected to the immortal realm."
“How is it possible!” Ancient Emperor Xuanwu lost his voice and subconsciously retorted: “Even the Emperor does not have such great power.”
A top imperial master can deliver the most brilliant blow, which can temporarily break through the barrier of the universe and escape into chaos, but it cannot last long.
If someone could break through the two worlds by his own strength and keep such a road for millions, tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years, what kind of power is this? It is simply unbelievable.
Why would such a person seek immortality? Even the Nine Heavens Immortals might not be stronger than him.
"But that's the truth."
Lin Xian cited many examples and said slowly: "Emperor Huang Tian erected a monument on the road to becoming an immortal. Some of them were words of experience to warn future generations, and some of them were scriptures passed down to bless the universe."
"The traces he left behind will last forever."
"Time cannot erase those traces, because Emperor Huang Tian had already become an immortal before attacking the Immortal Realm."
Since the ancient times, the path to becoming an immortal has been opened more than once, and those stone tablets have naturally become widely circulated.
The most valuable thing is undoubtedly the stone tablet that records the Six Paths of Reincarnation Fist, which established the reputation of the Great Saint Body and became the foundation of this clan.
"He has already become an immortal, what does this mean..." The Ancient Emperor Xuanwu's heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly had an ominous premonition, and hurriedly asked: "Since Emperor Huang Tian has already become an immortal, immortal, and indestructible, why did he attack the Immortal Realm? Does he also want to teach the Immortals?!"
"The fairyland is the fairyland, and becoming a fairy is becoming a fairy. They are not the same thing."
"In the Immortal Realm, there are longevity substances that can prolong life. This is what the Supreme Being desires, but not all creatures in the Immortal Realm are true immortals. Even at the peak of the Immortal Realm, there were not many true immortals."
"Immortality is a realm. Above Quasi-Emperor is Great Emperor, and above Great Emperor is Immortality."
Lin Xian said frankly: "The path to becoming an immortal between the two realms of the void is the path to be taken after becoming an immortal, not the path to becoming an immortal. This is proving, not attaining."
"Rather than calling it the road to becoming an immortal, it's better to call it the immortal platform or the road to ascension."
"When you reach the end of the Xiantai Secret Realm, you will be immortal in the mortal world, and when you reach the road to ascension, you will make the ultimate leap and ascend."
A soft word exploded like thunder.
The path to becoming an immortal was opened up by the masters of the immortal path. They are already immortal, and even in the Dharma Ending Age, they do not need any life-promoting substances.
The supreme being who cut himself with a sword was eager to grow biomass and prolong his lifespan, but when they set out on the road to becoming immortals, they found that they could not blast open the gate to the immortal realm.
This is undoubtedly a huge tragedy.
"is this real?"
The originally pale face of the Ancient Emperor Xuanwu turned rosy at this moment, not because he was living a second life, but because he was simply angry.
If you want to ascend, you must first become an immortal. If you want to become an immortal, you must first ascend.
This is a vicious cycle that has killed countless emperors and kings.
The Supreme can die, but he cannot die in such a miserable way.
"Isn't this great emperor the best proof?"
Lin Xian pointed at the innocent little girl who was playing with the Xuanwu Immortal Medicine and said calmly, "The road to becoming an emperor is not over yet, so how can we talk about the path to becoming an immortal?"
"Each supreme being is undoubtedly the strongest in the universe, with an aura that swallows up mountains and rivers and exerts pressure throughout the ages. However, if they do not break away from the path of the emperor, how can they see the immortals and how can they transcend."
“Only by reaching the highest peak in the imperial path can one be qualified to embark on the path to becoming an immortal and verify one’s own immortality.”
"Live life after life, and finally embark on the path to becoming an immortal."
"The great emperor's Dao fruit who never cut himself..." Emperor Xuanwu looked at it carefully for a moment and couldn't help but sigh. There actually was someone in the mortal world who was so against the will of heaven that he never cut himself and survived this life on his own.
With this thought, Emperor Xuanwu could not help but become furious. He stood up and walked around Taoyuan. Finally, he could not bear it any longer and pointed at the sky and cursed: "Damn Heaven, are you kidding me?"
When he was young, at the peak of his vigor and vitality, during the years when Emperor Xuanwu was pursuing immortality, he did not find any path to becoming an immortal or achieving longevity.
On the contrary, he was on the verge of enlightenment, a state in which it would be useless even if all the life blood of the universe and all the elixirs of immortality were fed to him. However, he listened to the greatest secret of immortality in the ages and saw the possibility of becoming an immortal.
"Is this the glimpse of the future I got before I died? The spiritual connection of an enlightened being is the last favor bestowed upon me by the heavens."
Emperor Xuanwu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the little girl and the Xuanwu elixir with deep eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
Although the Great Emperor's Dao Fruit was indeed against the will of Heaven, his power that did not kill himself was terrifying.
But if you want to save your corrupt true destiny, you need a heaven-defying magical fruit. If it is not amazing, it will have no medicinal effect at all.
"Hope to survive..."
Emperor Xuanwu was so distracted by this that he suffered all his life. Was he going to follow the path of Emperor Shi?
How can securing a chance of survival for future generations compare to living another life yourself?
The worst happened.
Emperor Xuanwu was hesitating whether to stick to his heart of Taoism, but Lin Xian did not hesitate at all and acted decisively.
A black gold tripod with a dragon pattern was floating up and down, engraved with flowers, birds, fish, insects, flying beasts, the sun, the moon and the stars. It was simple and majestic. It hung above the little girl's head, and thousands of black lights fell down, interweaving and staggered, as if there was a black hole looming, just like a living emperor coming to the earth!
The looming power of Emperor Wuque made Emperor Xuanwu feel uneasy.
"Senior is on the verge of enlightenment, and still has some supreme combat power. However, the emperor of our ancient forbidden area has never killed himself."
Lin Xian showed his trump card and said bluntly: "If you dare to come to the Immortal Mountain to negotiate, I am not the only one representing you."
"In the old mythological era, many emperors of the ancient heaven stood side by side. Now the new heaven has risen again. Although it cannot compare to the peak glory of that time, it is not weak either. It is full of outstanding people of the time."
"You are so presumptuous, youngster." Emperor Xuanwu stood with his hands behind his back. Although he looked old, his imperial power was still as great as ever. He snorted coldly, "In the past, even Xukong and Hengyu might not dare to say such big words in the Immortal Mountain."
"If you are a peak emperor, I will commit suicide on the spot to apologize." Lin Xian stood behind Xiao Nannan and said calmly, "In the past, the Immortal Mountain was full of supreme beings, and the great emperors of the human race in the past generations could not pacify it. It is comparable to the Taichu Ancient Mine." "If the Immortal Mountain Forbidden Zone is still glorious, I dare not even step into the threshold of this forbidden zone, let alone bargain with the supreme beings."
"It's not that I'm being unbridled, it's that time is too cruel..."
"Am I old?" Emperor Xuanwu had a blank expression on his face and slowly closed his eyes. If he could become an enlightened being in this world, he would still take action no matter how Lin Xian flattered him, even if there were a hundred emperors standing behind him.
If it was the period when he had just entered the restricted area, the Ancient Emperor Xuanwu would have decisively contacted the Supreme of the Immortal Mountain, captured everyone, searched their souls directly, and explored the secret of becoming an immortal.
But now, he is not only old, he is dying, and his soul is gradually extinguished.
He is the Holy Spirit of Xuanwu. He attained enlightenment in the early years of the ancient times. His imperial life was 16,000 years in his first life. In his second life, he took the elixir of longevity. Relying on its extremely special medicinal properties and the longevity method he researched, he broke the repetitive curse and lived for 18,000 years. In total, he was at the peak of his imperial life for 34,000 years, which was considered a long life among all the emperors.
However, no matter how long the emperor's life is, it cannot withstand the ravages of time. Years are like a knife that cuts off the genius, and the road to immortality is enchanting.
Emperor Xuanwu is already half dead, and there is almost no way in the world to stop his decline and death.
The Great Emperor's Dao Fruit gave him a glimmer of hope, but how could he, in his old age, seize the heaven-defying fortune? He cut himself with a sword, but the person opposite him was the Great Emperor who had never cut himself with a sword.
It is the most normal situation for the Emperor to kill the Supreme. There are very few cases of the Supreme killing the Emperor throughout the ages, and they are usually a group of immortal old men hunting down those who have just achieved enlightenment.
"Amitabha!"
At this extremely critical moment, Fighting Buddha put down his magic iron stick, like a Buddhist deity descending to the Pure Land. Countless faiths fell like rain of light, and the aura of the Supreme was also emerging behind him.
The group came to the Immortal Mountain to gather intelligence on behalf of Amitabha Buddha.
How could this supreme Buddhist not have a backup plan? Even if the Void Emperor Mirror was blocked, the power of faith could save their lives.
Everything today is about the confrontation between the supreme being of the world and the forbidden area of Immortal Mountain!
Not only the Great Emperor Daoguo, little Nannan also has allies.
"Amitabha the Great?"
Looking at the figure, Emperor Xuanwu's eyelids jumped. The waters of Buddhism were so profound that even the Ancient Emperor was afraid of it. For a moment, he thought of compassion and cause and effect, as if he had glimpsed reincarnation.
In a trance, he looked at his own figure, as if saying: "Even if you are the Supreme, you can't be too murderous, otherwise there will be retribution in the end."
After seeing a glimpse of the future and catching some glimpses of good fortune, Emperor Xuanwu's expression gradually became peaceful.
He is not even willing to fight for the path to becoming an immortal, so why waste his energy on becoming the Great Emperor?
Even if the hunt was successful, given his condition, he was doomed to die after a great battle, and the other supreme beings would be left with nothing.
In this case, what difference does it make whether you fight or not?
"Good, good." In the void, a gray-robed Buddha chanted in Sanskrit: "Good deeds bring good results, bad deeds bring bad results..."
This was said not only to Emperor Xuanwu, but also to a certain female supreme being in the Immortal Mountain.
In the western hut, a huge divine source trembled. Although the Peacock Emperor, who looked like a goddess, did not break the seal and come out, she slowly opened a pair of silver eyes and seemed to say with emotion: "Amitabha... I didn't expect you to really do this."
"But I still don't approve of you!"
"Although you have defeated me, I will protect you, but we are not on the same path..."
"Good, good." At some point, a monk in gray appeared in front of the thatched cottage in the west. He smiled and then put his hands together and said, "I am willing to recite the Heart Sutra for you."
In the core area of Undying Mountain, a person suddenly appeared. The Headless Knight saw this scene, but turned a blind eye. I didn't dare to say anything, and I didn't dare to ask.
He is a quasi-emperor, but he doesn't lack brains, not heart.
The only one who can be on equal footing with the Supreme is another Supreme.
No matter they are from other restricted areas or people of this world, they are not something that a crippled Holy Spirit like him can interfere with.
Inside the Pure Land courtyard of Emperor Xuanwu, a sickly old man stood.
After Amitabha left, Gai Jiuyou's aura reappeared, like a brand, standing behind Lin Xian, and in front of him was little Nannan.
"A great emperor, a different kind of person who has attained enlightenment..."
At this moment, Emperor Xuanwu finally understood where Lin Xian's confidence came from. The lineup of the Eastern Wilderness Heavenly Court was no weaker than that of the Immortal Mountain, and it could be regarded as an equal forbidden zone.
No wonder Lin Xian dared to go deep into the Immortal Mountain with a Great Emperor Dao Fruit. It turned out that there was an ambush.
After there was no suspense, Emperor Xuanwu stopped dwelling on the past, his thoughts were clear, his mind was peaceful, he sat down again, and said leisurely: "I have recognized the strength of the New Heaven Court, and it can communicate with the restricted area, but I still have a question."
"Throughout the ages, great men have come one after another and created different paths. How can you be sure that your path to becoming an immortal is the right one?"
"The ancient heaven has collapsed, and the mythical years are gone."
"I still haven't seen the immortal yet."
"There is no right or wrong on the road to becoming an immortal. It's just a matter of different choices." Lin Xian secretly breathed a sigh of relief and answered carefully: "The right time, the right place, and the right person are the three elements of becoming an immortal. Every correct step and every time you are accurate, the probability of becoming an immortal increases a little bit."
"The forbidden area calculates the time and place. What we in Heaven are looking for is the right person."
"Senior, you have been diligently seeking for immortality, but have not gained much. Why don't you try another path?"
He did not rely on the path to immortality that came once every million years, but created his own path to immortality just like Emperor Huang Tian.
Thirty-four thousand years old is the right age for hard work. Wouldn't it be wonderful if he could try his best to become the emperor of heaven?
Lin Xian tried his best to deceive people and sold them various methods of immortality, but Ancient Emperor Xuanwu remained unmoved. In his current condition, he would die if he tried.
“I can’t see anymore.” The Ancient Emperor Xuanwu said calmly, “If I don’t use any blood and energy, and sit here like a dead person, I can still survive for a few hundred years. If I move a little, I’m afraid I’ll only have a few days left to live.”
It’s because Emperor Xuanwu doesn’t want to live forever or become an immortal, and he doesn’t have the ability to do so.
He had been on the wrong path for thirty-four thousand years, and it was difficult to turn the ship around, so he was doomed to die.
For elderly people in their twilight years, what they care about most are their children and grandchildren.
Lin Xian then took advantage of this weakness.
"Becoming an immortal is a hope. It has been passed down from generation to generation since the ancient times. All living beings have ascended to heaven by stepping on the shoulders of their predecessors. It started from the wilderness, gradually matured, and finally formed a system, which was passed down from generation to generation. What is more hopeful than seeing future generations inherit the Tao, iterate and update it, and even surpass their predecessors?"
Lin Xian spoke eloquently, "Why do cultivators like me practice cultivation? It's not just about becoming an immortal by ourselves, but about exploring the overall situation of eternity. The Immortal Gold Holy Spirit is the most terrifying existence of the Holy Spirit Clan. Shouldn't we join in this earth-shaking change?"
"The Holy Spirit Clan was born and raised by nature, so it is understandable that they are hostile to all living beings, but don't they have the slightest idea of giving back to heaven and earth, saving the Dharma Ending Age, and completing the universe?!"
"For example, evolving a fairyland in the mortal world?" The Ancient Emperor Xuanwu was a supreme being of his generation, and he understood everything at once. He said thoughtfully, "Everyone is like a dragon, and all living beings live forever."
"This is a very crazy, very bold and almost impossible idea."
"Instead of creating the world in the human world, it is better to talk about the emperor's teaching of immortality. This is more reliable."
Lin Xian's smile froze, and he suddenly realized something. He was going further and further on the road to the fairyland, and now he was always talking about concepts such as the universe, time and space, and the creation of the world.
The obsession with evolving into the fairyland has penetrated deep into his heart, and he thinks about it all the time.
Oh no, I’ve become the Green Emperor!
