Chapter 324 [The Great Emperor is of the Ninth Rank, I am of the Seventh Rank]
The Green Emperor is high, the Nine Nether Emperor is hard, the Heavenly Court is high and hard.
What is Heaven? It is the things that the Great Emperor cannot control, Heaven will take care of them. It is the inauspicious things that the Great Emperor cannot resolve, Heaven will resolve them.
The Great Saint of the Cai Clan bowed in worship, his voice trembling a little, as if he had seen a god, and he bowed with great respect and asked, "Has the Supreme One broken through that level?"
For ordinary people, the imperial way is out of reach. However, Gai Jiuyou is a god, not an ordinary person.
Eight thousand years ago, the Great Sage of the Cai clan was young and naive, and had just embarked on the path of cultivation. However, Gai Jiuyou was extremely talented and was at the peak of his life. After practicing for a thousand years, he broke through the Nine Heavens Gate, triggered the imperial calamity, and almost achieved enlightenment.
In the eyes of their generation, Gai Jiuyou is a miracle, a deity high in the nine heavens. They grew up listening to the legend of this supreme being.
If someone else claimed to be an emperor, the Great Sage of the Cai clan would sneer at him, thinking that he was just a quasi-emperor or a fake emperor.
But Gai Jiuyou was different, he was a man who almost achieved enlightenment!
"There are nine levels of saints, and nine levels of emperors. The first level leaps into the sky and becomes an immortal in the mortal world."
Gai Jiuyou stood with his hands behind his back, thinking about the great emperors of all dynasties, recalling the various secrets of the Lin Xian Dao, exploring the mysteries above the Xian Dao, and finally gave an answer: "I am the seventh rank, and the Qing Emperor is the third."
If these words were to spread, they would surely cause a huge storm, shock the world for eternity, and be recorded in history.
There cannot be two emperors in the world, and ancient emperors never meet each other. They are both the strongest of their own times. I am the only one who reigns supreme in the nine heavens and ten earths. There is no fixed number on who is strong and who is weak.
If you are not an emperor, how can you be qualified to distinguish between high and low? If you do not prove your truth and make assessments, the ancients will definitely not accept it.
But if he were to become an emperor, those who have achieved enlightenment have always been proud and arrogant, so how could he be willing to be inferior to others?
Only Gai Jiuyou, who was almost an emperor eight thousand years ago, and whose achievements surpassed those of nature and who achieved enlightenment in a different way eight thousand years later, could barely be considered the world's number one master in the ten thousand years after the Qing Emperor's death, and who is now the uncrowned emperor of the universe, has the qualifications to comment.
Only after Gai Jiuyou witnessed many immortal secrets and met several Heavenly Emperors was he willing to comment on himself.
There are nine levels for sages, nine levels for quasi-emperors, and naturally, nine levels for the supreme beings as well.
Shakyamuni nodded thoughtfully, then asked, "In Daoist Fellow Gai's opinion, only those who have attained the Dao and mastered the Heavenly Heart Seal can be considered above the sixth rank?"
"That's right." Gai Jiuyou sighed, coughed a few times, and said slowly: "To be an emperor in this world, you are not only powerful yourself, but also blessed by the universe, and all the ways are united as one."
The great emperor of the time is challenging the Great Holy Body, and he is not just talking, he really has that kind of fighting power.
The Golden Crow Emperor broke the myth of the invincibility of the emperors of the time. When he fought with Emperor Ye Tian, he only left one feather. What a brilliant record.
If he had been replaced by the Supreme of the Forbidden Zone and achieved enlightenment in an alternative way, he would not have been defeated, but dead.
This is the weight of the contemporary emperor and the Heavenly Heart Seal.
When the Great Sage of the Cai clan listened to these imperial secrets, his eyes narrowed and he didn't even dare to speak. He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into.
This kind of eternal imperial secret is only worthy of being heard by a peak great sage, not even a quasi-emperor.
Only a special person who is about to attain enlightenment, like Sakyamuni, dares to say a word or two.
Just when the Great Saint of the Cai Clan was trembling with fear and in a dilemma, Lin Xian stroked his chin and said thoughtfully: "The alternative enlightenment is considered the seventh grade, so what grade is the Great Perfection Holy Spirit?"
When the Great Sage of the Cai clan heard this, he almost dropped his jaw in shock. No, brother, who are you? How dare you go up there and join in on this occasion?
Don’t you see that I am a great sage of the ninth heaven, a respected ancestor in the universe, a big man who dominates the whole area, and yet here I dare not even utter a word.
However, Gai Jiuyouzhen gave an answer: "The Great Accomplishment Holy Spirit is at the eighth level. Once it is perfected and born, it will be the Emperor Tribulation, directly skipping the seventh level and leaping into the sixth level."
"What about the Holy Spirit that has never been perfected?" Lin Xian continued to ask.
"Not even a ninth-rank." Gai Jiuyou said calmly, "An ant."
"What if it is the Green Emperor's murderous intention?" Lin Xian suddenly smiled.
Gai Jiuyou narrowed his eyes, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "It should be ninth grade."
“Probably similar to me.” Sakyamuni said slowly. He was half of the Great Emperor Amitabha. When he attacked with all his strength, it was equivalent to a fully revived imperial weapon.
The ninth-grade supreme being is equivalent to an emperor's weapon, or a general who has gained enlightenment through the emperor's corpse and can injure the emperor's body.
The eighth-grade supreme being is at the level of Great Accomplishment Holy Spirit, Great Accomplishment Saint Body, and Great Accomplishment Tyrant Body.
No matter how powerful the Green Emperor is, a murderous thought cannot become the supreme one, since he is not a god.
"The senior is invincible in the world, and he is the backbone of our heavenly court." Lin Xian bowed in admiration. If the Supreme Being does not come out, the immortal will not come to the mortal world. Gai Jiuyou is really the best in the world. Gai Jiuyou shook his head and said leisurely: "What are you planning, kid?"
"Of course, it is to give Senior a chance to fight the Green Emperor."
Lin Xian smiled slightly, bowed and said: "Eight thousand years later, the world will know that the Nine Nether Supreme is invincible in the world!"
It would be a pity if the dragon vein holy spirit in the Qinling Dragon Cave, which was about to be perfected, was easily killed by the Green Emperor.
"Good, good." Sakyamuni put his hands together, and suddenly changed the subject, saying mysteriously: "Don't look at the monk's face, look at the Buddha's face. Although the Great Emperor has passed away, the dragon energy of the imperial way he created is amazing. Daoist Xia Yu also has a connection with Daxia."
"Xia Yu?" Gai Jiuyou was puzzled. Wasn't there no trace of Taihuang's body left except for one hand? It was impossible for the emperor's corpse to be possessed by spirits.
Lin Xian shook her head and told Gai Jiuyou a mythological legend about the ancient star.
According to legend, Yu did not have a mother. Instead, after his father died, someone used a knife to cut open his father's body, and a yellow dragon flew out and turned into Dayu.
"So that's how it is." Gai Jiuyou seemed to be thinking about something. There was no emperor's corpse, not even the remnant of his soul. It was just the continuation of life. He was an alternative emperor's son.
Emperor Yu was a completely new creature, just a quasi-emperor.
The Great Sage of the Cai Clan glanced sideways, and became more and more shocked when he saw this scene. He just thought that Lin Xian was Gai Jiuyou, or a younger generation of Sakyamuni, to be able to be ranked here.
But judging from the conversation just now, this was not the case. The dignified Supreme Being actually had some respect for an Immortal cultivator.
This may be the only hope for the Qinmen Cai clan.
Gai Jiuyou and Sakya were both masters of the supreme level, who were beyond the reach of the Cai clan. During their time in the Qin clan, they had already figured out the secret of the word "bing" by themselves.
Only Lin Xian has not yet obtained the secret of the word "bing".
While Gai Jiuyou and Shakya were chatting, the Great Saint of the Cai Clan bowed again and said, "Buddha is merciful and gracious. The Cai Clan has no way to repay you. We are willing to offer you the secret of the word Bing."
"I also have a piece of Huaxianchi Immortal Treasure, which I would like to give to this young friend as a token of my appreciation."
Immortal Pond?!
When these words were spoken, not only Lin Xian was stunned, but the two supreme beings were also attracted to their attention.
There is an Immortal Pond in the Qinling Mountains, which contains the immortal medicine Qinglian. He obtained the fragments of the Green Cauldron and absorbed the laws of immortality, thus attaining enlightenment and transforming into a human form, becoming a Qing Emperor.
According to legend, the material that the Wu Shi Emperor used to cast the Wu Shi Bell was a fairy treasure that sank in the fairy pond.
"Two thousand years ago, I went in with fellow Daoist Li Er to take a look." Sakyamuni nodded and indicated, "There are indeed immortal treasures and imperial materials in it."
"Tens of thousands of years ago, the Cai family had a great opportunity, and some of them entered the Immortal Transformation Pond." The Great Sage of the Cai Family said sincerely, "We formed a bond with the Green Emperor. Later, our ancestors met with misfortune, and the family was about to perish. The Green Emperor then saved our lineage."
"The immortal treasure that our ancestors obtained was also taken away by our lineage."
"Is that person the third-generation Yuan Tianshi?" Lin Xian suddenly asked.
The Great Sage of the Cai Family was slightly stunned, and then frankly admitted: "It was that ancestor. How did you know this, young friend?"
"It's really fate. I know this from the Origin Heavenly Book."
Lin Xian hurried forward, held the arm of the Great Saint of the Cai Family, shook it vigorously and said, "I am the sixth generation of Yuan Tianshi of the world, and I am the disciple of the founder of the Cai Family. We are real relatives."
"Brother, I, Cai... ahem, Lin Xian, have been searching for fellow disciples for many years, but have never met them before."
"The flood washed away the Dragon King Temple. Family members no longer recognize each other!"
Cai Zheng, the great sage of the Cai family, was also an experienced man. He immediately took advantage of the situation and said with equal enthusiasm: "This is truly a match made in heaven. Junior Brother Lin deserves to obtain this immortal treasure and forge a magic weapon."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Cai, for the gift." Lin Xian smiled and asked curiously, "Excuse me, Senior Brother, what is the name of this treasure?"
The Wu Shi Emperor fished out a piece of Chaos Stone from the Immortal Pond. The third generation Yuan Tianshi was a little weak and did not have such an immortal treasure, but he should have had materials at the level of the Nine Great Immortal Golds.
If it was the Purple Mark Divine Gold that was born with the ability to activate the Great Dao and engraved with myriad traces, Lin Xian wouldn't have to go to Kunlun Mountain to look for the purple tower, and he could have forged his own Taoist weapon now.
It just so happens that the secret of the word "bing" is also here, which can assist in the forging of the natal weapon and take it to a higher level.
