My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 1496 - 556: The Might of the Immortal Emperor
The pillar of law connecting heaven and earth slightly converged, and a figure slowly emerged at the core of the pillar.
It was none other than the Supreme Elder of the Luoxiao Sect, Ding Xiu!
His face was as calm as still water, and he slowly opened his eyes, the brilliance in his eyes faded away, transforming into two bottomless whirlpools of chaos, seemingly containing the truth of the cosmos' birth and destruction, and the cycle of all ways.
The aura around him had completely transformed, merging with the great Dao of this world, following his thoughts and giving rise to the Dao at his will.
A gentle yet supreme pressure, enough to suppress time and space eternally, naturally permeated, covering the four extremes.
"It's done.
"I finally...
"have succeeded."
Ding Xiu felt the power within his body, spread his arms, and embraced the vast and ethereal world, the tens of thousands of years of oppression in his heart swept away in an instant.
From this moment on.
He was no longer the junior cultivator who needed Brother's shelter, nor the short one lagging behind among the Twelve Golden Immortals.
But the sole Immortal Emperor of the Human Race, standing tall and indomitable!
Everything in the world would be under his control.
"Buzz—"
Ding Xiu flicked his sleeve.
Phenomena between heaven and earth converged like streams returning to the sea.
Wherever it passed, the meridians and bodies of all cultivators observing the ceremony were tempered and refined.
The phenomena gradually dissipated.
But the Immortal Emperor's grandeur that enveloped heaven and earth, making all beings bow, was deeply imprinted in this universe, enduring through time.
"The vast Dao, today I finally see its true face!"
He spoke slowly: "Issue the Luo Xiao Immortal Order, from this day forth, all cultivators who come to pay homage to Luo Xiao, regardless of their origins, will be rewarded with a top-grade elixir pill corresponding to their realm."
"Greetings to Ding Zhisheng!"
"Greetings to Immortal Emperor!"
"..."
Across the mountains, cultivators bowed in unison.
Amidst the pervasive immortal might, a voice arose, disrupting the atmosphere.
"Ding the shorty!
"You still have the mood to act pretentiously here with pig snouts in an onion field?!"
Only to see an old man wearing a patched-up Taoist robe appear among the clouds.
However.
Before his words reached anyone's ears.
They were erased by Ding Xiu.
He frowned slightly.
Then pulled the old blind man into the secluded restricted area of Luo Xiao.
"Tsk tsk~"
He clicked his tongue and said: "What's the matter, Ding the shorty, got burdens after breaking through to become an Immortal Emperor?"
"Blind man."
Ding Xiu said expressionlessly: "If there's something, just say it directly."
The old blind man sneered: "I just calculated that Chen Sansi has already acquired the Chaos Green Lotus in the Luo Xiao Secret Realm. If he takes it back to the Immortal Execution Gate, your dreams of eternal dominion might be shattered."
"The Chaos Secret Realm?"
Ding Xiu's mind stirred.
He actually tore through the void, opening a teleportation tunnel out of thin air, directly leading to the secret realm, which should have taken a journey of over ten days!
He stepped forward first, blending into the tunnel and disappearing.
Meanwhile.
Within the secret realm.
Chen Sansi walked north in the chaotic mist, guided by a magical treasure, and after about six hundred miles, a colorful vortex formed by countless light shadows appeared ahead.
"I've arrived."
If he guessed correctly.
This is the Light and Shadow Secret Realm mentioned by Li Qingque.
At the entrance, there is a quasi-emperor level restriction.
But for Chen Sansi, it was not an obstacle; sitting cross-legged, he comprehended the laws and rules within, and in less than an hour, he had successfully opened the restriction.
There was no obstacle ahead.
He took a deep breath and stepped in willingly.
In an instant, he felt the world turn upside down!
Looking back, the Chaos Secret Realm outside, with the sky pouring down starlight like an hourglass, the sun and moon changing rapidly like a fleeting horse.
The time outside was accelerating in its passage!
Or rather.
The flow of time within the Light and Shadow Secret Realm was far too slow.
"Truly a wondrous sight."
Chen Sansi marveled in his heart.
He quickly adapted to this feeling, calming down, and began to observe the environment around him formally.
Within the secret realm.
Three hundred sixty stars were suspended high above, each one condensed by the Time Law.
On the ground, there grew glass-like time crystals, stepping on them would stir up ripples of ages.
On the eastern side, a silver waterfall flowed backward, every drop reflecting different time-space scenes; on the western side, a tree of withered glory grew, its leaves experiencing millennia's thrive and decay with each breath. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
In the center, a White Jade Dao Platform was transformed from the innate Spiritual Treasure "Sundial of Time," with twelve thousand nine hundred and sixty time scales etched on it.
This should be where the Array Eye of the Secret Realm is located.
Chen Sansi approached the "Sundial of Time," placed his hand on it to feel, discovering the Time Law and the truth of the Dao contained within it, exceedingly simple yet incomprehensible. Even if an Immortal Emperor came without favorable timing, location, and people, they probably wouldn't be able to grasp its mysteries, and naturally, he couldn't either.
Thinking of replicating the Light and Shadow Secret Realm one-to-one seemed impossible.
He was slightly disappointed, instructing himself not to be greedy, that by honestly cultivating here for a few hundred days, he would be able to break through to the quasi-emperor realm.
But a few hundred days...
Would that still be too long?
The old blind man might bring people anytime.
But he couldn't let this trip be in vain.
If it really came down to it.
He could only "pack up" the secret realm and take it away.
Although Chen Sansi couldn't replicate the secret realm, he could use the Formation to strip it away and take it with him.
Although doing so would inevitably cause the secret realm to deplete rapidly, the situation was urgent. If he didn't quickly break through to the Immortal Emperor to resolve the Demon Seed affair, the entire world would face huge trouble.
So, he couldn't afford to worry about so much.
"Buzz!"
Chen Sansi formed a hand seal, creating an array in the void.
The entire Light and Shadow Secret Realm shrunk violently, transforming into a stream of light gathering in front of him, finally forming a dazzling golden talisman.
Once he returned, as long as the talisman was activated, he could use the Light and Shadow Secret Realm for cultivation anytime!
