Chapter 73: Brewing Tea with the Divine Spring and Discussing the Heavenly Emperor!
"Even among all the ancient emperors, the Azure Emperor would rank among the top three!"
This is Gai Jiuyou's conclusion.
The ancient era reached its zenith, producing the first ruthless Great Emperor who successfully evolved into a post-natal chaotic body; the Void Great Emperor who spent his life conquering forbidden zones and possessed the heads of three or four supreme beings; and finally, the Beginningless Great Emperor, who seemed to have no equal throughout history!
"Generally speaking, the stronger the emperor, the longer he lives. So, is it reasonable that the Azure Emperor passed away after 30,000 years?"
"That's unreasonable!" Gai Jiuyou said decisively.
"Where is he?!" Gai Jiuyou's gaze fell on Wang Xuan.
"————" Wang Xuan was silent for a moment. He couldn't very well tell you that he was evolving the Immortal Realm, could he?
"Two hundred years from now, the path to immortality will open!" Wang Xuan replied, seemingly unrelated to the question, but with a hidden meaning.
"This will be the right place, the right time!"
"The Immortal Path—" Gai Jiuyou paused for a moment upon hearing this answer, "I see."
Only such an age-old mystery could make someone like the Azure Emperor care so much.
"So, you really are the Azure Emperor's envoy?"
"These are all the emperors, including the Great Emperor Wushi, the Great Emperor of Void, the Great Emperor Ruthless, and so on!"
Wang Xuan invited Gai Jiuyou into the Chaos Imperial Palace.
He reached out and summoned the tea set and the divine spring, and even took out a few pieces of Enlightenment Tea leaves that he had obtained from the Jiang family, and started brewing tea.
"There's even Enlightenment Tea?" Even Gai Jiuyou was slightly surprised, but then gladly accepted the tea.
"Not bad." Gai Jiuyou, exuding an aura of Dao, then began to delve deeper into the Chaos Imperial Palace before him.
"This place—Emperor Wushi is extraordinary!"
Gai Jiuyou sensed the Daoist aura wafting through the air and was reminded of the layered palaces in the Jade Capital, marveling repeatedly.
"If you are interested, you may stay here for an extended period," Wang Xuan said, seizing the opportunity to invite.
Gai Jiuyou shook her head, "Useless to me, but Jiuyou herself—"
He couldn't bring himself to refuse such a great opportunity for his disciple!
There is no Scripture of Beginninglessness here, but there is the Great Emperor of Beginninglessness's insights into the various great principles of the world!
"Yujing is the residence of all emperors. If even you, sir, are not qualified to reside here, then who can enter?"
Wang Xuan handed one of the Jade Capital Tokens to Gai Jiuyou.
"—Are you trying to tie this old man to this Jade Capital?"
Gai Jiuyou looked at the Jade Capital Token and thought of the Azure Emperor, and couldn't help but sigh.
There are very few things he still cares about in his life, and Wang Xuan has precisely hit two of them at this moment.
"That's not enough," Wang Xuan shook his head, then asked, "Senior, your talent is extraordinary, no less than that of an emperor or sovereign. How about you prove your Dao in this lifetime?"
Wang Xuan's words were astonishing, even Gai Jiuyou narrowed his eyes, unable to understand what Wang Xuan was thinking.
"I know where there is a true dragon's elixir of immortality that can be picked."
"Its medicinal power is enough to heal your Dao injuries, allow you to live a second life, and attain Emperor status!"
Gai Jiuyou was also tempted; no one could remain calm in the face of the allure of attaining enlightenment.
"No." Gai Jiuyou slowly shook his head. He was only moved, nothing more.
"This era will be a golden age unlike any other in history, and I cannot stand in the way of this prodigy's path to becoming emperor!"
Some people, when they get old, will cut off their own flesh and devour all living beings, but some people, when they get old, are unwilling to become an obstacle for others!
"—Your demeanor is truly admirable." Wang Xuan clapped his hands and sighed.
He was certain that Gai Jiuyou truly possessed the demeanor of an emperor!
Slightly inferior to the ruthless Wushi Wanqing, but no less powerful than Xukong and Hengyu!
"However," Wang Xuan then changed the subject, looking at Gai Jiuyou with confidence and pride.
"You have underestimated this golden age."
"Oh?" Gai Jiuyou also became somewhat interested.
He at least believed in Wang Xuanqing's identity as an envoy of the Qing Emperor, and was convinced that he possessed many secrets.
"This golden age will be an unprecedented golden age. The path to immortality has opened, destined to be dazzling with gold. There will be many who achieve enlightenment through unconventional means. Great emperors will be plentiful, and there will be more than one Heavenly Emperor!"
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Gai Jiuyou found it absurd.
"In this life, a prodigy sealed away by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor will appear, a disciple of the Emperor will descend, and the offspring of the Undying Heavenly Emperor are probably already on their way."
Gai Jiuyou's pupils contracted; these individuals were undoubtedly the strongest Heavenly Emperors in all of history!
"In the mythical era, the Heavenly Court was a place where emperors stood side by side, a time of unparalleled glory and brilliance. All of this will be recreated in this era!" Wang Xuan stated the facts.
Gai Jiuyou remained silent.
"So what if someone attained enlightenment first?" Wang Xuan shook his head. "We can defy the heavens, break through the suppression of the Great Dao, stand above all other paths, and become a Heavenly Emperor for all time!"
"Then who do you think can become the Heavenly Emperor? Are you referring to those three you mentioned?"
This time, Gai Jiuyou remained silent for an even longer period. After a long while, he picked up the Enlightenment Tea, took a sip, and asked Wang Xuan.
"The Desolate Heavenly Emperor is the most ancient legend in the world. Many emperors also believe that he has already become an immortal. The one you mentioned who was personally sealed by the Heavenly Emperor must be a genius in the world," Gai Jiuyou speculated.
"Indeed, Zhang Bairen's physique is similar to that of an ordinary person, but he has the foundation of a chaotic body, so achieving enlightenment is not difficult for him."
Wang Xuan expressed his agreement, but then shook his head, "However, the years he has been in seclusion are immeasurable, and he has long lost his vigor; he is no longer the Heavenly Emperor!"
"That Emperor's disciple?"
"The Emperor has fully inherited the legacy of the Emperor, possesses the Nine Secrets, and his scriptures are also exquisite," Wang Xuan added. "However, he is trapped by the collapse of the mythical Heavenly Court and does not understand the truth behind it. Therefore, he cannot escape the hindrance of his own Dao heart and is not the Heavenly Emperor."
"The bloodline of the Immortal Emperor?"
"The Undying Emperor possesses the body of a celestial being, and his son is nourished by the Eye of Creation, making his bloodline talent arguably the best in the world." Wang Xuan shook his head. "But so-called talent is merely the weakest link in the path to becoming a Heavenly Emperor! He is not yet a Heavenly Emperor."
"Then what about you?" Gai Jiuyou looked at Wang Xuan suspiciously.
This inevitably sounds like self-praise.
"Him and me!"
Wang Xuan waved his hand, and the Chaos Imperial Palace projected the scene of the outside world, showing Ye Fan defeating Xia Jiuyou and killing many of the proud sons of the Big Dipper.
"Although he has achieved some success, the Holy Body cannot attain the Dao!" Gai Jiuyou shook his head as he looked at Ye Fan.
"The Holy Body does not attain enlightenment; attaining enlightenment means becoming the Heavenly Emperor!"
Gai Jiuyou remained skeptical, after all, this was an age-old law of the cultivation world, and then he turned his attention to Wang Xuan.
"And you?"
Wang Xuan smiled and looked into the light screen. Suddenly, he saw a golden light falling from the northern sky.
It was a golden chariot, the ancient chariot rumbling as it rapidly approached. The figure on it had disheveled black hair, a chiseled face, bronze skin, and a powerful, robust physique. His entire body was enveloped in soaring golden light, like a celestial emperor descending to earth.
He is Wang Teng.
He did not use any magical artifacts such as the Xuan Yu Platform to traverse the void, but instead traveled directly from the Northern Plains royal family in a golden chariot.
He was naturally covered in dust and grime along the way, but at the same time, he also cultivated an invincible aura!
The vast northern plains and the desolate eastern wilderness are all within my heart!
