Chapter 177

"Wait, I remember now!"

Duan De exclaimed. He had found a clue regarding the Secret of Zhe and said excitedly, "The Secret of Zhe, is it also called the Undying God Art, or perhaps the Ancient God Scripture?"

"That is indeed the case." Lin Xian felt a jolt, as he remembered it too.

In the Mythological Era, the Longevity Heavenly Venerate created the Undying God Art, which later evolved further into the Secret of Zhe, known for being undying and indestructible.

The relationship between the two is one of progression.

The Ancient God Scripture was the Longevity Heavenly Venerate's path-proving imperial art, while the Secret of Zhe contained the Longevity Heavenly Venerate's understanding of becoming an immortal and achieving longevity.

Even the Supreme Emperor in his later years could sublimate his own Dragon Transformation Scripture to evolve a brand-new chapter, let alone one of the nine great Heavenly Venerates of the Mythological Era.

"Is the information accurate?"

Ye Fan couldn't help but ask. He knew well that Duan De's reliability was on par with the Black Emperor's.

"What are you saying? When has this Daoist priest ever been wrong?"

Duan De said with an unhappy face. He took out the Saint-Slaying Blade from his robes, shook it, and said, "This is a divine blade capable of breaking the Saint Body; I found it in the tomb of a Human King."

"According to the hand-scroll left behind by that Human King, he claimed to come from the Ziwei Star Domain and belonged to an organization called the Human King Palace."

There is no Secret of Zhe on the ancient Ziwei star, but there is the Undying God Scripture!

"Human King Palace..."

Gai Gai Gai Jiuyou seemed moved and said in a low voice, "In the early years of the Desolate Era, Human Kings were as glorious as Saint Bodies; they had beheaded Saint Spirits and killed gods."

Everyone was stunned, then sighed; how many past events have turned to dust.

The title "Human King" cannot be used lightly. It is not a King Body like the Radiant Body, Feathered Body, or Azure Falling Body; it refers not to a path of cultivation, but carries profound meaning—it is the King of the Human Race.

To wear the crown, one must bear its weight. Daring to use the title of Human King, there must surely be a glorious past.

Just like the Desolate Ancient Saint Body, its academic name before the Desolate Era was the Undying Golden Body, until nine generations of Saint Bodies protected the human race and it was crowned with the name of Saint Body.

"The Human King Palace on Ziwei indeed has the Ancient God Scripture, but it is only half a page."

Lin Xian pondered, "The other half belongs to a Longevity Daoist Temple on the Underworld Ridge of the ancient Ziwei star; it is said that its heritage is so ancient that its source cannot be found."

Longevity Daoist Temple?

Longevity Heavenly Venerate!

Everyone was in a trance. The orthodoxy of an ancient mythological Heavenly Venerate had been found. No wonder it was unknown; it turned out not to be on the Big Dipper Burial Emperor Star, but on the Ziwei Emperor Star.

"The five-colored altars are almost built. The Primordial Ancient Star and the Ziwei Ancient Star are both on the way."

Gai Gai Gai Jiuyou said in a deep voice, "The Immortal Alliance can shrink into one domain, but if we are to build a new Heavenly Court, we must pave an ancient starry road and bring all major star domains, ancient life stars, and important star river hubs under our control."

The great universe is too vast; no one knows how many stars there are. Some regions have never been visited since ancient times. However, when the Great Emperors of past generations ruled the universe, all domains came to pay homage, and every star with life was regarded as their territory.

It is rumored that the Heavenly Court of the Mythological Era spread teleportation arrays across all major stars and five-colored altars across the universe. Relying on the Southern Heavenly Gate, they transported heavenly soldiers and generals to the ten directions of the star river to maintain their rule.

A Great Emperor ruling the universe is not just talk; they truly regard the universe as their dojo.

Some Great Emperors fought bloody battles with forbidden zone Supremes for the sake of the human race, while some ancient Emperors fought because dark Supremes emerged, invaded their territory, offended the Emperor, and fought to defend their own majesty.

"That's right, go deep into the great universe to dig graves!"

Duan De's eyes lit up instantly, and he kept muttering, "Those who can be buried in the Nine Heavens are all big shots."

Everyone had black lines on their faces. They were discussing the Heavenly Court's journey and the immortal path of longevity, and suddenly this character popped up.

The key is that this character is also the one among them who has walked the furthest on the path to immortality.

Looking at the lecherous-looking Duan De, and then at the little girl holding a pacifier and drinking milk, Gai Gai Gai Jiuyou couldn't help but shake his head. What kind of world is this?

The problem of the Daoist Nine Secrets is solved, and the Buddhist sect cannot be let off either. The Secret of Zhe still requires going to the Ziwei Emperor Star or the Tyrant Body Ancestral Star, but the Buddhist secret art is on the Big Dipper.

The Buddhist Six-Character Mantra—Om, Ma, Ni, Ba, Mi, Hum—is a supreme holy art that can subdue all gods of the heavens.

In the Western Desert, there are many temples, but only a few of the oldest holy temples each possess one character of the mantra. It is difficult to gather them all, and some have been lost forever.

Legend has it that this Six-Character Mantra was not created by the Amitabha Great Emperor, but came from an even more ancient era. If the six characters are combined, they can rival the Nine Secrets combined.

Lin Xian suspects that this Six-Character Mantra was created by the immortal monks or even immortal monk kings of the Buddhist sect in the past; otherwise, it cannot explain such divine power.

Most of the Amitabha Great Emperor's scriptures are related to faith, pure lands, the afterlife, and nirvana, aiming to turn the Western Desert into a Buddhist kingdom.

The "Nirvana Scripture" is one of his works.

"How should we obtain this scripture from the Buddhist sect?" The big black dog muttered, its eyes rolling around, seemingly plotting something bad.

"Once worried that deep affection would damage Buddhist practice, entering the mountains again fears parting from the beauty; how can there be a perfect way in the world, to not fail the Buddha and not fail you." Ye Fan said leisurely, causing everyone to look at the Divine Silkworm Princess.

As everyone knows, there is a Fighting Victorious Buddha on Mount Sumeru, who is the current leader of the Buddhist sect and also the fiancé of the Divine Silkworm Princess.

"I must go see him eventually." The Divine Silkworm Princess murmured, her eyes lost in thought.

Everyone immediately showed a look of gossiping. The fiancé of the Fighting Victorious Buddha, just thinking about it is exciting. Monkey Brother, how many girlfriends do you actually have!

"Ye Fan, don't be too happy too soon."

Lin Xian looked sideways and sneered, "A thousand years ago, a disciple of Sakyamuni returned from the sea, passed through the Eastern Wilderness, and met the dying Master of the Miaoyu Nunnery. Because of the inextricable connection in their heritage, he left behind a summary of the Nirvana Scripture."

"It is mostly in An Miaoyi's hands now. Go get it and see if it can heal the Dao wounds in your body."

"If it can heal the Four Extremes Dao wounds, then the complete Nirvana Scripture can also heal the Supreme Dao wounds."

"Ah, I..." Ye Fan's expression was complex. How is he supposed to go get the scripture?

The Holy Prince chuckled and said leisurely, "Once worried that deep affection would damage Buddhist practice, entering the mountains again fears parting from the beauty; how can there be a perfect way in the world, to not fail the Buddha and not fail you."

Ye Fan glared at him. Monkey, didn't you say you were illiterate? Why are you reciting poetry now?

Has the pure ancient creature learned this now? Contaminated by the pollution of Holy Master Lin.

The desire for revenge is too strong!

"Since that's the case, I'll trouble the Holy Ape to escort the Ye Saint Body to get the scripture." Lin Xian said with a smile, "If he is unwilling, just knock him out and send him there."

"Understood." The Holy Prince nodded. Ye Fan was prepared to watch his uncle's fun, so he shouldn't blame him for watching Ye Fan's fun first.

"Get the scripture, get the scripture, get a bird's scripture." Ye Fan complained in his heart, but looking at the monkey's staff, he still gave in.

This is not Holy Master Lin's Four Secrets realm, but a genuine Immortal Second-tier Holy Ape.
