Chapter 365: 【Not Plotting the Imperial Throne for Descendants】
Having severed the Dao and become a King, Lin Xian only feels that the universe is different. Heaven and earth are clear, his waist doesn't hurt, his legs aren't sore, and he can beat ten Ye Fans in one breath.
If I can't beat the Desolate Crouching Dragon, can't I beat the Ye Phoenix Chick!
Lin Xian steps on the Xing Secret, green lotuses growing beneath his feet, shuttling through the Ziwei star domain. Each step crosses a star, comparing with the Golden Crow, his body like the speed of light.
He leaps to the ruins where the Sun Holy Emperor crushed the purple-gold warship, learning from the Yaoguang Sage to pick up trash. Regardless of anything, he gathers all the powder and star fragments into his Wheel and Sea Secret Realm.
Now that the Immortal Domain within his body has just opened, he urgently needs a large amount of nutrition. Regardless of whether it is edible or not, he must gnaw on it first.
"I am not a producer of immortal energy; I am just a porter of the great universe."
Lin Xian lets out a long roar, his mouth wide open, a Great Dao Treasure Bottle above his head, evolving a black hole, immediately swallowing heaven and earth, letting nothing go.
The Sun Holy Emperor's divine thought did not borrow the Dao fruit of his past life. Even if he only had one ten-thousandth of the strength he had in his lifetime, a casual finger could destroy a Quasi-Emperor and kill a Great Sage.
Things that can survive under such attacks are destined to be incomparably precious.
Just now, Lin Xian found three pieces of Eternal Blue Gold the size of a finger in the starry sky battlefield, flashing with mysterious luster, a hundred or a thousand times more dreamy than sapphires, making it hard for one to look away once they saw them.
Even a mosquito is meat. He polishes the three pieces of Eternal Blue Gold into the shape of stars, embeds them in the Innate Universe Dao Diagram, turning them into an eternal starry sky, and integrates a wisp of power out of thin air.
By the time the sages on Ziwei Star react, the battlefield trash has all been picked up by Lin Xian.
"My holy bones! My immortal gold!"
The Yaoguang Sage is heartbroken. He actually missed such a good opportunity. For the next few hundred years, he won't be able to sleep whenever he thinks about it.
The Yaoguang Holy Land is poor and afraid, not as deep in foundation as the supreme forces. This time, there was a massive hemorrhage. If they don't earn something back, I'm afraid mice will be born in the treasury.
"Why must the Sage be like this?"
Lin Xian clicks his tongue, points to the Tang Gu divine island, and the Holy Emperor's palace above the Sun Divine Tree, saying, "There are also many good things over there."
"They are all scriptures and such, not worth much. It's better to go to the Heavenly Court to exchange for Imperial scriptures."
The Yaoguang Sage sighs, "There is a bottle of Nine-Turn Immortal Pills in the Holy Emperor's alchemy room. We fought for half a day, only to find it was empty. The immortal pills had long been consumed by the Holy Emperor."
"The Sun Holy Emperor refined Nine-Turn Immortal Pills?" Lin Xian's expression condenses, murmuring, "That's right, the Sun Divine Tree bears no fruit and grows no holy herbs; it only contains solar holy power. If the Holy Emperor wanted to extend his life, he would inevitably have to refine immortal pills."
Nine-Turn Immortal Pills are Great Dao precious pills that can allow the Sun Holy Emperor to live another life, and can even allow forbidden zone Supremes to return to a flawless Great Emperor state, which can be called heaven-defying.
The Emperor refined them, Lingbao Yuanshi Tianzun refined them, and Moral Yuanshi Yuanshi Tianzun might have refined them too. I didn't expect the Sun Holy Emperor to have refined them as well.
With Nine-Turn Immortal Pills, the Holy Emperor absolutely could not have lived only two lives; it must have been three lives at the base.
Then, the Taiyin Human Emperor, who was vaguely a fraction stronger than the Sun Holy Emperor, how many lives did he live? Could it be he had a fourth life!
Lin Xian has the heart to ask the two Human Emperors, but the Human Emperor Banner circulates wisps of chaos energy, and the two Human Emperors have joined hands to comprehend the mysterious Chaos Dao, having no time to attend to other things.
"Rumble..."
On Ziwei Star, the Tang Gu divine island emits a roaring sound. The entire island begins to sink, and the black ocean rushes over. A huge black hole appears in the sea, swallowing Tang Gu into it.
Only the Sun Divine Art blooms with brilliant holy power, forcing back the darkness and leaving a glimmer of light.
"Tang Gu is about to enter the North Sea sea eye, leave quickly!"
Many cultivators exclaim, turning into rainbows and flying out; even the sages dare not stay long.
It is rumored that the North Sea eye can swallow heaven and earth and refine gods and demons. It is a forbidden land where ancient Great Emperors suppressed those with great sins; even ancient Great Sages would be trapped to death within it.
Only Lin Xian, holding the Human Emperor Banner, shouldering the sun and moon, with solar holy power and Taiyin holy power intersecting at the ends, turning into an Innate Taiji diagram hanging behind his head, blooming with brilliant Dao light, resembling a holy being descending to the world, fearing nothing, steps toward the North Sea step by step.
The North Sea eye is a place of deathly silence, with nothing else. No vitality, no light, this is an empty, dead, and silent place, where not a blade of grass grows, vitality is extinguished, and there is only darkness and coldness.
It is even more Dharma-Ending than the Dharma-Ending Age, as if it were the legendary era of no spirits. Sage after sage withered here, and there was no lack of Great Sages.
The only vitality is that Fusang tree. However, without the recognition of the divine tree and the permission of the Holy Emperor, even a Quasi-Emperor cannot get close.
Fortunately, Lin Xian holds the Human Emperor Banner, circulating the aura of the Sun Holy Emperor, and is unimpeded.
While collecting the corpses for the sages, he steps toward the core area.
Above the divine tree, the Sun Shi Ta floats. This Imperial weapon suppresses eternity and is not cast from the nine great immortal golds, but crafted from a piece of chaos stone, which is extremely extraordinary, circulating chaos energy.
Beneath the golden divine tree is the Sun Holy Emperor's Imperial coffin, which also flows with a sheet of solar holy power.
"Outside, there is a Sun Body and the Sun Ancient Sect. Will you not follow me out?"
Lin Xian holds the Human Emperor Banner and asks, questioning both the Sun Shi Ta and the ancient Fusang tree.
The Undying Herb and the Imperial weapon have spirits, both having divine thoughts. Usually, they do not speak, only being arrogant and not wanting to bother with mortals, but now they speak.
"The North Sea calamity, the Holy Emperor and I must remain here to suppress the turmoil."
The divine thought of the Sun Emperor Pagoda answers thus. This is the will of the Sun Holy Emperor; they cannot leave without authorization. Even if the Sun Ancient Sect is destroyed, they must still remain here to protect all living beings.
"Is it worth it?"
Lin Xian sighs. If they hadn't come to Ziwei, the Holy Emperor's bloodline would have been severed.
"He is the sun."
The divine thought of the Sun Emperor Pagoda rings out, blooming with wisps of holy light, echoing with the Imperial coffin, turning into a great sun, the rising sun, scattering light.
The sun illuminates all things and bestows blessings upon all spirits, never asking for anything in return. Even as time turns and the seas change into mulberry fields, he still hangs above the firmament, unchanging through the ages, silent, only contributing selflessly.
His Sun Emperor Pagoda does not go to the universe to compete or reign over the world; it only suppresses darkness in the North Sea!
He seeks happiness for the human race, not for himself, not for his bloodline, not plotting the Imperial throne for his descendants!
He is the Sun Holy Emperor!
"I also cannot leave."
The Sun Divine Tree gives an answer with a young divine thought. It wants to stay to accompany the Holy Emperor to suppress the dark turmoil and suppress the path to immortality.
The divine war of the Primordial era broke out on Yinghuo, but it passed through here. The Taiyin Human Emperor Seal, in order to protect the common people and guard the Ziwei Emperor Star, went up to meet the battle, colliding with the Immortal Cauldron and shattering a corner.
The North Sea eye is a path to immortality; immortality must pass through here!
"The sea eye is a path to immortality. Could it be that they are interconnected, and the stars are coordinate nodes of the universe?" Lin Xian trembles suddenly, thinking of the sea eye on Yinghuo Ancient Star.
In the Yinghuo Demon Sea Eye, there is also a path to immortality. The Undying Emperor is performing nirvana there, swallowing the flesh and blood of one Emperor after another who are breaking into the path to immortality.
Could it be that the Sun Holy Emperor perceived all this in the Primordial era?
The Undying Emperor was repeating the layout of the path to immortality, eyeing the flesh and blood of the Sun Holy Emperor, but encountered the resistance of the divine thought, and as a result, had an arm severed, leaving only a remnant thought.
The Fusang divine tree sways, circulating wisps of solar holy power, expressing its apology.
Originally, Lin Xian had obtained the recognition of the Sun Holy Emperor, and the Fusang Sun Divine Tree, this Undying Herb, was to follow him away.
But now, the carrion-eating Yin Crow has stolen the fruits of the Sun Holy Emperor's labor, resulting in only a human skin remaining to suppress the path to immortality and resist the dark turmoil.
According to the Sun Holy Emperor's layout, his flawless Imperial corpse after death would have had enough combat power to protect this place, but an accident occurred.
The Fusang divine tree also had peerless combat power, the number one killing power. It had to stay to help the Human Emperor, and only by joining with the Imperial coffin and Imperial weapon could it briefly reappear with Emperor-level combat power.
"So that's how it is, to suppress the changes in the path to immortality."
Lin Xian does not force the Sun Divine Tree to follow him away. The Fusang Undying Herb has its own consciousness. He only requests, "I don't need the Undying Tree, but please, divine tree, bestow upon me the method of combining man and medicine to enhance combat power."
The Sun Holy Emperor could actually resonate with the Fusang divine tree and erupt with heaven-shaking combat power. In Lin Xian's eyes, this experience is even more precious than the Undying Herb.
If he learns it, he can "call a taxi" to fight.
One must know that every Undying Herb was once a peerless Immortal King, invincible in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and their combat experience is absolutely powerful.
The Fusang Undying Herb is somewhat puzzled: "What do you want this method for?"
Combining with medicine is an extremely chicken-rib Dao method for cultivators, far less important than the Imperial arts and Nine Secrets.
"Friend Sun Divine Tree, I also have an Undying Herb."
Lin Xian releases the aura of the True Dragon Undying Herb, then looks serious and righteous, saying, "After I become strong, I must also learn from the Sun Holy Emperor to fight against the dark turmoil!"
The Fusang Undying Herb is moved: "It is truly rare that you and the True Dragon Herb have such spirit."
"Uh, it's not the True Dragon Herb, it's another Undying Herb." Lin Xian coughs, his gaze drifting, his thoughts flying.
For example, a certain Chaos Green Lotus Undying Herb, which is comparable to the Ruthless Emperor and the Emperor Wu Shi Great Emperor—the Green Emperor.
The Green Emperor's physical body has been dismembered, but his Primordial Spirit is still alive. I can invite the god to possess me!
The simple and kind Fusang Undying Herb, which does not know about outside affairs, is greatly moved: "No matter what Undying Herb it is, you have the spirit of the Sun Holy Emperor, and that is enough."
Lin Xian's old face turns red, and he hurriedly says modestly, "Where, where, I am far inferior to the Sun Holy Emperor, not even one ten-thousandth of him."
Having trust, kindness, modesty, and having obtained the recognition of the Holy Emperor's divine thought.
Sect Master Lin's rating at the Sun Divine Tree has risen straight up.
"Young man, you have a burning heart. If it were in the early years, I would definitely follow you away." The Fusang Sun Divine Tree sighs: "It's a pity that there are changes now, I cannot leave, I can only pass the method to you."
"No, besides the method, I also want to give you a gift."
Saying this, the Fusang divine tree automatically separates ten branches. Each branch is covered with golden leaves, resembling small suns, containing solar fire essence, which is a supreme holy object.
Every leaf is a supreme treasure, comparable to billions of source stones.
"Oh my, I can't accept this, I can't accept this."
Lin Xian says this verbally, but his actions are incomparably swift, hurriedly planting the ten Fusang branches into his own Immortal Domain.
In an instant, it is like ten suns crossing the sky. Solar holy power flourishes within his body, purifying his physical body and purifying his Primordial Spirit.
Following that, the ancient Fusang tree also passes on the secret method of combining man and tree.
The Sun Holy Emperor attained the Dao here. He had great opportunities from a young age and had the Fusang tree following him since he was a child. Even his Dao methods were referenced from the solar holy power on the Sun Divine Tree, hence they were incomparably intimate.
To perform this method, one must have an intimate connection with an Undying Herb, far exceeding the relationship of following.
The more Lin Xian looks at it, the more he feels this method has a connection with him, attempting to combine with the True Dragon Undying Herb. However, the True Dragon in his body is lazy and doesn't pay attention to him at all.
Lin Xian's face turns black, and he mutters, "If you don't combine with me, don't regret it. I'll go find the Chaos Green Lotus."
One must know that the Green Emperor evolved the Immortal Domain, and he also evolved the Immortal Domain. This is a unique relationship.
In the great universe, only he and the Green Emperor cultivate this kind of Dao method!
Once he cultivates this method and combines with the Green Lotus Undying Herb, he will be invincible in the world and kill everything.
"Young man, you should leave."
The Sun Divine Tree finishes passing the method and intends to release the seal, letting Lin Xian out.
However, Lin Xian refuses to leave no matter what, wanting to cultivate in the North Sea for a period of time. There is a flawless Undying Herb here, which is the top-tier immortal land of the great universe.
He has only seen this kind of cultivation environment beneath the Nine-Wonders Tree in the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Zone and beneath the Dao Enlightenment Tea Tree in the Undying Mountain Forbidden Zone.
Even the Bodhi Tree, because it has just grown, is not as full of essence as the Fusang Sun Divine Tree.
"Taiyin and Sun..."
Lin Xian chants the Sun True Scripture, sitting cross-legged beneath the Fusang Undying Herb, with a golden leaf in his mouth, surrounded by solar holy power, falling into a mysterious state of Dao cultivation.
He is bathed in sunlight, like a great sun illuminating, his cultivation base begins to settle and stabilize, and when it accumulates to a certain degree, he begins to break through the barrier!
One heavenly tribulation after another descends, not dissipating because of the North Sea's seal. Although there are no Imperial shadows, one human-shaped lightning after another strikes Lin Xian until he is dying to live.
The Heavenly Court crowd outside sees this scene, breathes a sigh of relief, and then leaves.
Until Lin Xian has nothing left to break through, standing at the mid-stage of Dao-Severing, stepping onto the fourth step, almost falling out of the Seven Prohibitions, the Fusang divine tree finally speaks to stop him, letting the Emperor Pagoda send him out.
"It's a pity I can't become a Sage in one breath. If I became a Sage, even falling to the Six Prohibitions would be worth it."
Lin Xian leaves this cultivation treasure land reluctantly. He wants to become a Sage so badly.
Because once he becomes a Sage, even a Great Emperor reincarnated cannot reverse-slay him, unless it is a young Heavenly Emperor. Only by cultivating to the Great Accomplishment of a King does one have the opportunity to slay a Sage.
"Boom!"
The sea eye opens wide, and the ocean above the North Sea seems to be about to pour down.
Lin Xian flies into the sky, parting the North Sea. The vast and mighty sound startles the knights guarding the surroundings. Seeing Lin Xian's identity, they quickly go to report to the sages and the Emperor.
Ye Fan turns into a long rainbow and flies over, laughing loudly: "Good people don't live long, scourges live for ten thousand years. Sect Master, you are indeed fine."
"The five-color altar for traveling to and from Ziwei Emperor Star has been laid out, just waiting for you. We are going back to Earth."
"Earth, Primordial Ancient Star." Lin Xian murmurs: "Finally going back."
