Chapter 192: The Inheritance of Wushi Dadi

In Shencheng, God King Jiang Taixu looked up at the sky and sighed in admiration.

"To think one could reach such a step, to walk such a glorious path."

Jizi's entire body was glowing; he had taken another solid and stable step in the Immortal Embryo Realm.

Ordinary people need years or even decades to ascend a single level; even top-tier geniuses require years of tempering to cross a single step beyond their original foundation.

Yet he had taken consecutive steps forward in an extremely short amount of time; if this were known, it would be absolutely shocking.

As the most outstanding creation of the Eternal Star Domain, the Strongest Bloodline Evolution Fluid indeed possesses incredible capabilities.

The Eternal Ancient Star has even birthed two ancient Great Emperors through such methods; one can imagine just how excellent such a technique is.

And at this very moment, Jizi looked up at the sky, also sensing the power of that figure.

Severing the Dao, and with such a powerful and terrifying phenomenon—in the current world, there is and can only be one such person.

"He is not at all inferior to an Ancient Great Emperor; what is even more terrifying is this speed of cultivation."

Jizi sighed.

And because of this turn of events, God King Jiang Taixu felt a little more confident about the disputes in the coming hundreds of years.

"If he can maintain this speed, in a few hundred years, he might truly be able to fight that terrifying existence, but I fear that he alone is still lacking."

"Has the corresponding information been spread out?"

After finishing his lament, Jiang Taixu turned to look at a member of the Jiang Family beside him.

"Action has already been taken; not just us, but others as well, changing different forms and appearances to spread it throughout the world."

The God King nodded.

"Then keep it going!"

The secrets within Purple Mountain suddenly exploded in a very short time, and for a while, the entire Eastern Wasteland heard of them.

The initial secrets were leaked from among the Thirteen Great Bandits; many of their subordinates had died in that round of turmoil, so it was inevitable that news would spread.

What they had explored together was not an ordinary place, but the tomb of a Great Emperor.

Most people returned empty-handed, but a portion of them obtained rich rewards from it, especially the Desolate Ancient Jiang Family.

The Desolate Ancient Jiang Family made a great fuss, not only because they knew it was the tomb of Wushi Dadi, but also because within that tomb of Wushi Dadi, there had been an invincible God King—Jiang Taixu—who had been sealed inside for four thousand years.

Known as the number one in attack for five thousand years, he had once left behind a resounding reputation throughout the entire Eastern Wasteland, and had even fought the Twin Kings in the Central Plains, with power that shook the heavens and the earth.

But he had disappeared silently back then, leaving behind few traces, and no one had ever thought he was still alive.

And in the subsequent news that spread, it was even more astonishing.

Someone discovered traces of God King Jiang Taixu in the Holy Land where Caiyun Xianzi resided; the God King had appeared there, and after the God King's arrival, time seemed to flow backward for Caiyun Xianzi, who was suspected to have lived for four thousand years and was nearing her end.

Not only did people spread related developments, but some also showed Caiyun Xianzi's recent condition; there were even peerless figures who tried to break into that Holy Land in the dead of night and saw Caiyun Xianzi's state with their own eyes.

Others said that not long ago, a peerless figure underwent Heavenly Tribulation outside the outskirts of Shencheng, and any single bolt of the Heavenly Tribulation could have caused a Saint Master-level figure to die an untimely death; that person was the peerless God King of the past.

Subsequent situations and clues continued to emerge; figures from the Desolate Ancient Jiang Family had circulated in Shencheng for a time, and one night, a peerless figure stood above Shencheng, causing the stars in the firmament to reverse, with boundless stellar power pouring into Shencheng.

Everyone could draw a very astonishing conclusion from this series of simple information.

"God King Jiang Taixu obtained the inheritance of Wushi Dadi in that mountain; he silently went into seclusion for thousands of years and finally broke through, his cultivation and strength having reached an incredible level."

"His cultivation and strength might not have reached an unfathomable level, but he must have obtained the top-tier life-extending substances; Caiyun Xianzi returning to a youthful state is definitely not fake."

"Someone once saw God King Jiang Taixu's state; it was no different from four thousand years ago, or perhaps even younger, with a full head of jet-black hair."

"The God King definitely obtained the top-tier life-extending substances from Purple Mountain, and not just one or two, but a great many, enough to help his lover return to youth."

"Perhaps the God King truly obtained the Great Emperor's inheritance; not only does he have the most peerless life-extending substances, but also the most supreme divine arts, and his strength is absolutely terrifying."

Under the propaganda of numerous rumors, almost everyone was certain that God King Jiang Taixu had obtained the inheritance of Wushi Dadi, which many Holy Lands and families wanted to obtain but had never truly acquired.

Even if he did not obtain the entire inheritance, he had gained very powerful strength from it.

Therefore, after it spread widely, it naturally took on a different flavor.

"The Great Emperor's inheritance belongs to the entire Human Race and should not be monopolized by one person."

"The Great Emperor's inheritance belongs to all of us."

"The God King should share a portion of the top-tier inheritance he obtained with us."

When Zhang Xuan returned from the starry sky beyond the domain and heard such words, he was stunned for a moment.

He had thought he would encounter many outrageous things, but he had not expected it to be this outrageous; to think they dared to try and fleece God King Jiang Taixu.

Since ancient times, it has always been that the belongings of ordinary rogue cultivators are split three-seven, while the belongings of the wealthy and powerful are returned in full.

One has never heard of sharing when it comes to the top-tier inheritances and treasures obtained by figures from truly powerful families and Holy Lands.

Not to mention the top-tier or distant ones, just take Wang Teng from the Northern Plains, known as the Northern Emperor; his family only possesses the foundation of a Saint, and having obtained the inheritance of Luan Gu Great Emperor, basically no one dares to go and rob him.

He has always lived very freely, and Jiang Yifei once obtained the inheritance of the Ruthless Great Emperor; the successor of the Ruthless Great Emperor even wanted to cultivate Jiang Yifei into a existence like a Gu Insect, but the Desolate Ancient Family ended up killing that Guardian completely.

No one dared to pull the tiger's whiskers of a Desolate Ancient Family, yet now there are people who dare to bring this matter to God King Jiang Taixu?

Looking at the whole story, only the rogue cultivator Ye Fan was hunted down from beginning to end, and it was a frantic hunt.

But after God King Jiang Taixu stood up for Ye Fan later on, all the people hunting him disappeared, and everywhere Ye Fan went, he met good people.

"Am I dreaming? This time it's really a bit outrageous!"

Zhang Xuan grabbed a cultivator to ask.

As a result, the cultivator said with an excited face: "Many Holy Lands and families have already gone to Shencheng; I heard that the God King does indeed have a portion of the top-tier inheritance from Purple Mountain that he is going to announce."

Zhang Xuan was stunned.

"With the God King's foundation, he would still be pressured by others?"

"I heard that when the God King was rescued that day, it wasn't just the Jiang Family; the Ji Family also took action, and among the Thirteen Great Bandits, I heard many were seriously injured. They came to ask for it, and even a Desolate Ancient Family can't just throw out the people who saved their lives, right?"

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan felt that the whole thing was a bit strange, and he probably understood a little bit of what was going on.

This was likely a trap set by the God King and the others, or rather, a banner they actively chose to wave.

If the God King had simply stood up and claimed out of thin air that he possessed the strongest bloodline-stimulating liquid, the top prodigies from the various Holy Lands and families might not necessarily have come upon hearing the news.

Free things are always the most expensive; Zhang Xuan, a person from a modern society, was not the only one to have experienced many such beatings.

Figures from the world of cultivation have experienced this just as much, and in this field, the slightest mistake can cost lives.

The mere news of a legacy of the Ruthless Great Emperor or the emergence of some secret treasure can cause countless cultivators to die.

If the God King had stood up directly and said he had a supreme item to share with many figures, no one would have come at all.

On the contrary, this current approach of "holding the pipa half-hidden," being pressured by various figures, and then being forced to bring out some benefits is much more reasonable.

And the closer he got to Shencheng, the more certain Zhang Xuan became that this matter was orchestrated by the God King and his group.

Because this event involved not only the Thirteen Great Bandits but also the Demon Race and the Desolate Ancient Ji Family; these figures were all inclined toward the God King, yet at this very moment, they were actively coercing the God King in this event, which seemed strange no matter how one looked at it.

And after approaching Shencheng, more specific news began to circulate.

"The God King has voluntarily brought out a portion of items to share with the many figures of the world; it is a supreme divine object capable of stimulating human bloodlines to the greatest extent, rumored to have been brought back from beyond the realms by Wushi Dadi."

"Everyone has a chance to obtain it, as long as they can gain the God King's approval."

"Don't think too much; ordinary, hypocritical figures like us have no chance; it will all be carved up by the several Holy Lands and families, and at best, some will be distributed to the Thirteen Great Bandits; it is impossible for it to be shared with everyone."

"Exactly, exactly. Now that they are putting on such a posture, it is only to appear fair and magnanimous. In reality, haven't you understood how they do things after all these years?"

"The God King is different. He has been the number one in battle for five thousand years; the God King has always been magnanimous and grand, and he would absolutely never engage in such underhanded, private tricks."

"What is different about the Desolate Ancient Holy Lands and families? Over these years, they have only looked slightly more refined than ordinary figures; overall, they are just the same."

"It is absolutely different. Some people have already obtained it; just by using a portion of the second turn, they directly broke through a major realm, possessing incredible divine effects and functions."

"Really?"

"Of course. The God King is a figure with great spirit and vision; he has obtained the legacy of a Great Emperor. In an era like this, he might be able to defy the heavens and prove his Dao to become a Great Emperor; his vision is vastly different from us ordinary people."

"Then how can one obtain it?"

"It is very difficult. According to the news coming in now, that substance is extremely precious; it is a supreme divine object capable of stimulating bloodlines to the greatest extent, and the quantity is quite small."

"For the sake of fair distribution, the God King wants the many figures to select the top powerhouses of the younger generation to compete in different realms; only those who are invincible among their peers can be qualified to obtain it..."

"Now, many top figures of the younger generation have rushed over, including the Golden Little Peng King of the Demon Race, and that Demon Race princess, Yan Ruyu."

"Ji Haoyue of the Ji Family, who is preparing to test his sword against the world, Hua Yunfei of the Taixuan Sect, the Yaoguang Shengzi of the Yaochi Sacred Land..."

One name after another was blurted out, and every time one was mentioned, it would trigger a wave of exclamations from the crowd.

They felt both excited and regretful; what was exciting was that so many legendary prodigies were gathered together, and what was regretful was that with so many top figures gathered, they must possess the most supreme treasures, yet they could not obtain them.

Hearing this, Zhang Xuan was completely certain that this must be the scheme of the God King and the others.

He felt relieved and did not rush back, but instead listened to the many rumors and hearsay on the road, while simultaneously feeling the situation, which was vastly different from before.

His gains from this round of Zhandao were immense, to the point that they could be called incredible.

Just after Zhandao, he had already leaped to the third small step of the Immortal Three Zhandao Realm; this was due to his very profound accumulation from before.

At the same time, his primordial spirit not only seemed to be wearing a suit of golden armor, but this time, his entire body had turned into the most brilliant gold.

That was a unique Dao body cultivated by borrowing the essence of the Eight-Nine Profound Art and the growth of the Tathagata; it was a bit like the Taishang Dao Body, and a bit like the Tathagata Golden Body.

But within it, it also contained the special Dao principles of the Ruthless Great Emperor, Wushi Dadi, the Undying Emperor, and others.

It was very closely integrated with this world, a unique Dharma body rooted in the Zhetian World.

Walking between heaven and earth, every breath seemed to be in harmony with the entire world; clearly, he was defying the myriad Daos of the heavens, yet at the same time, in a certain sense, he was in harmony with the myriad Daos of the heavens.

"This state is even somewhat similar to the Innate Sacred Body Dao Fetus; the physical body has endless power, while the primordial spirit is close to heaven and earth, able to draw endless power from heaven and earth at any time and place, and the magic power is also inexhaustible, impossible to use up."

Zhang Xuan carefully experienced it, noticing the subtle differences and variations within.

Then, when he had a moment, he once again used the Swallowing Heaven Demonic Art to extract a wisp of the Origin of that Heavenly Court Lord.

This time, he was not almost blown apart by this wisp of Origin as he was before; his physical state was much better than before.

Zhang Xuan only felt his whole body was comfortable, with a feeling of being clear from front to back, and then he stepped up another level, reaching the fourth small step of the Immortal Three Zhandao.

"Reaching such a speed of cultivation, I am even a bit ashamed; it is fast enough to be frightening."

The cultivation speed was terrifyingly fast, but Zhang Xuan did not feel much instability; within the swallowed Origin, there were also Great Dao Fragments and Origin rules.

Those were the laws once comprehended by that Heavenly Court Lord; swallowing them into his body would implicitly carry some insights of the Great Dao, and Zhang Xuan only needed to carefully understand and absorb them to stabilize his progress.
