A person in the heavens, starting with a Chaos Emperor Dao Fruit

Page 235

Yunhua and Ruthless resumed their time together. After a battle with a top-tier immortal king, Ruthless was filled with inspiration.

However, she still had some doubts about Yunhua's methods.

“It’s a secret technique of willpower,” Yunhua explained, “but this time it’s quite a coincidence.”

Then Yunhua explained it to Ruthless in detail to prevent Ruthless from becoming obsessed with the secret art of willpower.

The annihilation of that supreme immortal king was achieved on a matter of will.

Yunhua created his own Immortal King-level willpower secret technique, and later obtained the "Lieyuan Technique". Although he was unable to cultivate it, he still absorbed some things from it and strengthened his secret technique.

The cultivation threshold of "Lieyuan Technique" is extremely high. The higher the realm, the more difficult it is to meet the requirements. Before becoming a true god, one must possess the will of a Chaos Ruler.

If described using the system description from the "Covering the Sky" perspective, then a quasi-emperor level in the human realm would need to possess a will approaching that of an immortal king.

For Yunhua to cultivate the "Lieyuan Technique" at his current level, he would probably need a will approaching that of an Immortal Emperor...

Thinking about it this way, Luo Feng is truly amazing.

In any case, when Yunhua was a Quasi-Emperor, he definitely couldn't have possessed a will close to that of a Celestial King.

However, this does not prevent Yunhua from using his willpower to kill a top-tier Immortal King.

Of course, it's not that willpower is so strong that even a supreme immortal king can kill with a single blow every time.

With Yunhua's current strength surpassing that of a normal Emperor Light Immortal King, he could kill a top-tier Immortal King with a single blow if he really made a move; it's clearly impossible for one-sided willpower to be that powerful.

This was largely a coincidence.

When Yunhua patted the ruthless man's shoulder, he sealed all of his willpower into the ruthless man's body.

Willpower is a realm that has never existed in the world of Shrouding the Heavens, and no one would be on guard against the secret art of willpower.

Therefore, in terms of willpower, this supreme immortal king was essentially defenseless.

He completely disregarded Ruthless Man, a mortal immortal who had not even achieved the perfect union of nine lifetimes.

Chapter 516 Seeking the Imperial Law

Even if you are a legendary immortal in the mortal world, you would still be too powerless in the face of a supreme immortal king.

In the battle against the ruthless man, he only mobilized a very small portion of his magical power.

Almost every level was completely unprepared, waiting for Yunhua to come and kill them.

That's why such a suspenseful situation has arisen, with a supreme immortal king dying inexplicably.

In a normal duel with a giant, a mental attack can indeed cause damage to the opponent, but it's impossible to kill them in one blow.

Even if others are not on guard, in a duel, every aspect of a person will be elevated to a peak, including their willpower.

They won't use it proactively, but reaching the level of a Celestial King doesn't mean they have no power to resist at all.

After listening to Yunhua's explanation, the ruthless man also understood some key points.

"Being able to cultivate one's will and use it for attacks is indeed a very good auxiliary method."

“That’s right, the Emperor sees it very clearly; this is just an auxiliary method.” Yunhua nodded.

Yunhua now possesses a will close to that of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, but any Immortal King whose cultivation reaches the Emperor Light level will naturally possess an Emperor Light level will.

However, Yunhua possesses a secret technique, making her will stronger and more resolute than theirs, and she can actively utilize it.

The other Emperor Light Immortal Kings had no secret techniques, and their will was only very primitive. They couldn't compare to Yun Hua, let alone any other God King in the Devouring Starry Sky.

But their will ultimately reached that level.

It's impossible for someone to reach the level of an unparalleled giant and still have zero willpower; that's just nonsense.

"The Great Dao is mysterious and unpredictable, endlessly dazzling. I wonder when I will be able to see its full extent."

The ruthless man's tone suddenly carried a hint of sigh.

Yunhua smiled. This ruthless woman is very confident. She said she didn't know when, not whether she could, which shows her confidence that she will one day reach the pinnacle of the Great Dao. It's just a matter of time.

"It will come sooner or later." In this life, because of his own influence, the ruthless person has clearly surpassed Wushi by a great deal.

By the time Ye Fan becomes a mortal immortal, the ruthless man will have already become an immortal king.

Having achieved the status of a Celestial King while possessing the body of a mortal immortal, he has secured his position as a powerful Celestial King.

By the time Ye Fan becomes an Immortal King, Ruthless Man may have already reached the level of an unparalleled giant, and the gap will become apparent.

Therefore, in the original storyline, the three human emperors, Ruthless and Ruthless, might be ahead this time. In any case, they will definitely be ahead of Wushi.

"Why aren't you advancing to Quasi-Immortal Emperor yet?" the ruthless woman asked, looking at Yun Hua. She believed Yun Hua was capable of doing so.

"Whether I advance or not doesn't matter." Yunhua smiled and shook his head. "My current cultivation method will be reflected in my Quasi-Immortal Emperor stage when I obtain the fruit."

"It can be said that although I have not yet become a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, I am already cultivating at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level."

"And what about the Immortal Emperor's radiance after obtaining the fruit?" the ruthless woman inquired, curious about these things.

"The so-called Quasi-Immortal Emperor Radiance is when one has touched the edge of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor but lacks the ability to advance to that realm. That's why a Quasi-Immortal Emperor Radiance is born around an Immortal King. I've never heard of Immortal Emperor Radiance before."

"Not every Immortal King has to go through the stage of Quasi-Immortal Emperor glory."

There shouldn't be a realm like Emperor Light Immortal King; supreme giants can directly break through and advance to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

However, not everyone can be like Shi Hao. Becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is extremely difficult. For the vast majority of people, it is a process of gradual progress and exploration of the path to becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, followed by piecing together fragmented insights and finally attempting to enter that realm.

That's why the level of Emperor Light Immortal King exists.

He has some connection with the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, but he is still at the Immortal King level.

If someone is truly a peerless genius, they would be like Shi Hao, directly advancing to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level while still at the Supreme Giant level.

What is the radiance of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor? As long as I directly comprehend the Dao of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor, the radiance of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor will not be able to catch up with me.

Of course, since the creation of the heavens in the Boundary Sea, there has only been one such genius, Shi Hao.

Perhaps the Old Man of Annihilation broke through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level in the same way, but the three Azure Emperors and the Footprint Emperor were definitely not as domineering; they must have gradually figured it out.

Of course, in the end, the level of Emperor Light Immortal King also means that an Immortal King has already touched upon something of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

If you haven't grasped the essence of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm, how can you possibly generate the radiance of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?

"So you want to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm directly?" the ruthless man asked again.

"..." Yunhua remained silent. "Your Majesty, if you don't hurt our feelings, we can still be good friends."

"Great Emperor, to leap from Immortal King to Immortal Emperor is probably unprecedented in all the heavens and earth since the beginning of time."

"Oh, I understand now." The ruthless man nodded.

Yunhua now needs the Imperial Law as a reference to accelerate the improvement of his own Imperial Law. Unfortunately, the wine that Shi Hao gave him last time only allowed him to see part of the Imperial Law, and he forgot most of it afterward.

"Do you have any Immortal Emperor-level techniques here? I can exchange them for techniques of the same level," Yun Hua asked. He certainly wouldn't take it for free. No freeloading, starting with me.

"A Celestial Emperor-level technique?" Little Stone glanced at Yun Hua upon hearing Yun Hua's request and shook his head.

"The Scripture Pavilion does not have any methods of this level; the highest level it has is Quasi-Immortal Emperor."

Yunhua was somewhat disappointed upon hearing this. Little Stone had already told him about the situation in the Scripture Pavilion, which was why Yunhua had come to ask him again.

Yunhua believed that as Shi Hao's biological son, he might possess Shi Hao's legacy. Now it seems Yunhua was mistaken.

"Do you wish to use the Immortal Emperor's methods to advance further?" Little Stone asked Yunhua.

He could naturally see the strangeness of Yunhua's state, which made him somewhat alarmed. Moreover, he was not entirely unaware of some things that happened in the Boundary Sea.

Little Stone didn't know why Yunhua possessed such combat power, but everything has its price; you gain something, you lose something. This man's formidable strength likely came at the cost of significantly increased difficulty in clearing the levels.

Seeking the Emperor's Law at this moment might be an attempt to break the deadlock.

Thinking of this, Little Stone advised, "The Emperor's Path is unique to each of us. Before becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, determining your own Emperor's Path, and possessing the rudiments of your own Emperor's Law, it is best not to come into contact with the Immortal Emperor's Law."

"This is also why my father did not leave me the Imperial Law."

"The Immortal Emperor is too strong. If he comes into contact with the Emperor's Law before becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, there is a high chance that he will be led down the path of the master of the Emperor's Law. In that case, he will never be able to stand on the throne for the rest of his life."

The Immortal Emperor Path in Shrouding the Heavens is similar to the Primal Lord Path in Devouring the Stars, where only one Immortal Emperor can emerge from each path. Shrouding the Heavens is even more extreme than Devouring the Stars.

In the world of Swallowed Star, you cultivate the ultimate techniques of the Hunyuan Lord. Although you may not become the Hunyuan Lord, it does not prevent you from breaking through to become the Hunyuan Lord through other paths.

But things are different here in Shrouding the Heavens. If someone comes into contact with the true Immortal Emperor's Law before becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, they will be led down the path of the Immortal Emperor's Law Master.

Take, for example, Shi Hao's Emperor Technique of Free Transformation. A Celestial King obtained it, grasped some of its basics, and even used it to establish himself as a Quasi-Celestial Emperor. But he was destined to never become a Celestial Emperor.

Becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is a process of transformation. If one embarks on the path of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor by following the methods of another's emperors, then one's own path and methods will bear the traces of those methods.

Chapter 517 The Imperial Law of the Corpse Immortal Emperor

A quasi-Immortal Emperor who paved the way to becoming an Emperor through cultivating the "Transformation of Others" Emperor Technique has only one way to become an Emperor: to defeat Shi Hao while still a quasi-Immortal Emperor. However, that's not how you tell a joke...

Of course, if you forge your own path, comprehend your own imperial laws, and establish yourself as a quasi-immortal emperor, then accessing imperial laws will be no problem. At that point, accessing imperial laws will accelerate your path to becoming a quasi-immortal emperor!

Of course, this excludes those quasi-immortal emperors who have fully accepted the Immortal Emperor's methods; such quasi-immortal emperors are already set in stone and have no hope. The moment one steps into the quasi-immortal emperor realm, everything is already predetermined.

Beside her, the ruthless woman's eyes flickered as she glanced at Little Stone. She hadn't expected that this ancient Heavenly Court ruler would have a Celestial Emperor as his father!

Little Stone remained silent; he couldn't help with this matter either.

Suddenly, Yunhua felt a thought; information was flowing through her mind.

"You want it? If you want it, then beg me! How am I supposed to know if you really want it if you don't beg me?"

Yunhua abruptly stood up, his fists clenched. This was outrageous! Yunhua's face darkened, leaving Xiaoshitou utterly bewildered.

How come it was fine just now, and suddenly it turned into this?

Ruthless people are used to it. It's just changing faces. In the past few thousand years, how many times has this man changed his face?

"This is absolutely outrageous!" Yunhua gritted his teeth. Last time, he only asked her to say a few nice words, but this time he wanted her to beg him! He was pushing his luck!

If something like this happens again, who knows what outrageous demands they'll make!

We must never encourage anyone's arrogance!

Yunhua didn't even need to think to know who was delivering the message to him.

"I'll tell your son!" Yunhua thought to herself, threatening Shi Hao with the possibility that his image might be shattered in front of his son.

The handsome young man from Ertu was taken aback, then burst into laughter. He had heard of suing parents and had even done it himself, but what was this about suing one's own son?

He won't believe it.

Shi Hao was confident that, in Little Stone's eyes, he was the greatest person in the world, the unparalleled Desolate Emperor.

How could someone possibly tell Little Stone that his father is actually a guy who threatens people behind their backs, and Little Stone would believe it?

This is similar to telling other beings in the heavens and earth that the Heavenly Emperor is sand—no, the Heavenly Emperor is very unpredictable—and they wouldn't believe it.

Yunhua was speechless. What kind of version of Shi Hao was this? How could he be so shameless?

In the midst of the Calamity Land, Shi Hao stopped. He looked around, piercing through all realms and seeing through the long river of time, and realized that no one would come here for the time being.

Then Shi Hao took out... a sofa, made of genuine dragon leather.

Shi Hao sank into the sofa, treating this little incident as a period of rest for himself.

He had been walking through Eden, but not as he had initially planned to go directly into the depths.

His footprints can be found all around the outer edge of the Calamity Land. The appearance of strange creatures at the peak of the Immortal Emperor level, and the ancestor they spoke of, made Shi Hao wary.

He did want to gather intelligence and do something, but he wasn't reckless. Shi Hao wanted to leave some tricks up his sleeve so he could retreat if something unexpected happened.

After all, a strange being at the peak of the Immortal Emperor level had already tried to stop him; what if he provoked that unpredictable progenitor...?

That jerk below once taught him that it's impossible to be 100% certain when doing something.

But you must be at least 98% certain before you can do it.

According to him, this was something he learned from a fellow practitioner outside the community.

"But what does he want the Immortal Emperor's Law for?" Shi Hao was a little puzzled. Didn't he give him the opportunity to see the various laws he had acquired last time? Among them was the Immortal Emperor's Law, wasn't it?

Moreover, given Shi Hao's level of cultivation, he could naturally see that Yun Hua possessed more than one divine skill that was no less powerful than the Immortal Emperor's technique.

“We can also offer a technique of the same level in exchange.” Shi Hao pondered, for the so-called Devouring Technique was something that could not be cultivated.

This means that this person has obtained other divine skills that are no less powerful than those of the Immortal Emperor.

Shi Hao was speechless. Where did this person get so many things from?
