Chapter 261 Human Emperor Sword
Chapter 261 Human Emperor Sword
“Fellow Daoist, what you mean is that the Immortal King who ascended to heaven died in an unknown place and fell into the Black Sea? And the reason why the Immortal King died is that they did not come back, and it is also the reason why they ascended to heaven?”
Qin Jiang opened his mouth, a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Since an Immortal King will die, it means that a war of Immortal King level will inevitably break out.
Is it a fight among the Immortal Kings, or a fight between the Immortal Kings and outsiders?
If it’s an internal struggle, it won’t be that no one comes back all the time, but if it’s an external struggle, is it a struggle with living beings or a struggle with the environment?
Or is it that the Immortal King’s ascension to heaven is actually a road of no return, and once he ascends to heaven, he cannot turn back even if there is no rejection from heaven and earth?
“Yes, my guess is actually more inclined to believe that it is some kind of extraterrestrial existence.” said the Human Emperor.
“Existences outside the world? Do you mean the creatures outside this world?” Qin Jiang asked.
He had also observed the celestial phenomena at night and knew very well that this world was a vast and boundless universe, and the planet where Zhongyuan Continent was located could be regarded as the center of the universe.
There is no other reason. Since ancient times, all the immortal kings who have attained enlightenment would come to Zhongyuan Continent and leave behind their Taoist traditions.
Even some who did not leave behind any Taoist tradition would eventually choose to ascend to heaven here.
But apart from this, there are almost no records about what is outside the universe, because apart from the Immortal King, almost no one can reach the edge of the universe.
Even if the Immortal King wants to reach the end of the universe, it will not happen overnight.
From those few recorded words, beyond the starry sky of the universe, there is endless nothingness. Not to mention source energy, it is a place where even light cannot reach.
In that kind of environment, the Immortal King can certainly survive, but he can only survive by consuming his own Immortal King essence.
If the Immortal King’s essence is exhausted, he will no longer be able to survive in that environment.
Of course, exhausting the origin would take an extremely long time, even for the Immortal King himself.
The Avenue of the Immortal King is almost a self-contained entity, independent of heaven and earth.
The law of time and the way of the Immortal King himself have realized a cycle. If he does not fight with others, the consumption of the Immortal King’s origin can almost be said to be negligible.
But what puzzled him was, could living beings really be born in such a void environment?
What would their life forms be like? How would they be different from the creatures in this world?
“That’s right. In this world, the source of energy is almost infinite. There is almost no power that can kill an Immortal King, even for me. It would take millions of years to slowly destroy an Immortal King.
But the void outside the world is different. In that environment, the Immortal King lost the nearly infinite source of energy in this world, which means he lost his immortal body.
It is much easier to kill the Immortal King in this state.
However, I still cannot find the source of the black sea. Perhaps, I can only find it after ascending to the sky. “
The Human Emperor spoke with a hint of regret. If possible, he hoped that he could resolve all the hidden dangers.
But it was obvious that his ability was still a little lacking.
Qin Jiang raised his brows slightly when he heard this. He felt two completely different states of mind from the words of the Human Emperor.
One is the confidence to kill the Immortal King with ease, and the other is the powerlessness in facing the unknown.
“Haha, let’s not talk about this. I invited you here today just to give you something to deal with my evil body.” The Human Emperor said with a smile.
As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly, and a small golden sword floated in his palm, with mysterious words on one side and fish, birds and beasts on the other.
Qin Jiang’s eyes were filled with surprise. “Is this the Human Emperor Sword?”
There is no record of the Human Emperor Sword in the current history books, and even the name Human Emperor has hardly ever appeared.
But before the Goddess Huang Tian caused the evil spirit to flow into the human world, the Human Emperor had a huge influence on later generations.
The reason why she wanted to erase the State of Yu from history was to eliminate the influence of the Human Emperor on future generations.
Because she herself controls part of the demonic energy origin that belongs to the earth, and wants to seize the part of the demonic energy origin that belongs to the evil body of the human emperor. In this way, she, who is the earthly and human, can break through the shackles of the innate sacredness and impact a higher level.
The Human Emperor has a huge influence on the world and was once regarded as the ancestor of mankind. This terrifying power of faith accumulated over millions of years will have a great blessing on the evil body.
By then, she might not be a match for the resurrected evil body of the Human Emperor.
“Yes. This thing is exactly the Sword of the Human Emperor. When the killing calamity is over, I will seal the sword here. After you return to the world, you can take it out and use it to sever the connection between my evil body and the source of demonic energy.” said the Human Emperor.
“Although the origin of demonic energy is a very evil thing, if it is possessed by the evil body of Daoyou, it can be completely refined after millions of years. Why give it to me?”
Qin Jiang spoke, the origin of demonic energy, even if it was only the human part, was a rare treasure of the Immortal King level, enough to allow an Immortal King to make progress.
It’s not that he thought the Human Emperor would be reluctant to part with it, but there was absolutely no need to leave it to him.
The Human Emperor shook his head slightly, “After the killing calamity is over, I will refine my own strength and separate it into three bodies of good and evil.
After the evil body enters the source of evil energy, the obsessive body will ascend to heaven, and finally the good body will ascend to heaven again after beheading the Yellow Sky Goddess Mother Tianxin.
In fact, I will enter the source of the evil energy with evil thoughts, on the one hand to prevent any accidents from happening to the source of the evil energy.
On the other hand, it is also because my evil thoughts are too weak to form a balance with my good thoughts and obsessions. Only after being nourished by the origin of the demonic energy can I achieve a state of balance and thus have the possibility of the three thoughts returning to one.
After the evil body is freed from the source of the demonic energy, it will ascend to heaven with the Human Emperor Sword.”
Qin Jiang nodded slightly, finally understanding the purpose of the Human Emperor.
After the killing calamity ended, the Human Emperor wanted to go a step further, so he differentiated into three bodies of mind: good and evil.
However, because the Human Emperor had too few evil thoughts, the power gap between the three mental bodies was too great, and the final unification of the three thoughts could not be achieved.
So he planned to use the origin of demonic energy to nourish the evil body, and also left a backup plan.
But the unexpected revival of the Goddess Huang Tian disrupted his plan, so he had no choice but to find himself.
“So that’s how it is. Don’t worry, fellow Daoist. I won’t let the evil thoughts bring disaster to the continent.” He said.
“Then I’ll leave it to you, fellow Daoist. I left an ownerless Immortal King weapon in the evil mind’s body, named the Humanity Cauldron.
This tripod can help Daoyou’s Overlord Tripod to go a step further and connect with the destiny of humanity. It can be regarded as a reward for Daoyou’s help to me.”
The Human Emperor spoke with a smile, but it felt a little forced.
There is no way. The Humanity Cauldron has not yet begun to be cast, and the consumables required are simply enormous, which cannot be described as a huge loss.
“An ownerless immortal king weapon? Fellow Daoist Emperor is also a Heavenly Monarch of Weapon Dao?” Qin Jiang was a little surprised.
The ownerless Immortal King weapon can be said to be the highest pursuit of the weapon cultivators, representing the pinnacle of weapon skills.
Not only does the refiner need to be a Heavenly Monarch of the Dao of Weapons, but more importantly, he needs to have the cultivation of an Immortal King.
Yes, once it has the word “king” in it, it is no longer something that cultivators below the level of Immortal King can forge.
Only the Immortal King can forge an ownerless Immortal King weapon.
Because it has no owner, the ownerless Immortal King weapon can be fused with any object of the same type. After the fusion, the strength of the original object will be greatly enhanced.
His Overlord Cauldron had already become a top-notch mid-level immortal weapon after devouring the Jiuzhou Cauldron. After that, after undergoing his own rituals and refinements, it had become the ultimate immortal king weapon. All it lacked was the Immortal King’s Dao Principles to transform it into a contemporary immortal king weapon.
But this step of the Immortal King’s Dao is enough to completely trap the Overlord Cauldron under the control of a true Immortal King weapon.
However, if he could smelt an ownerless Immortal King weapon, the grade of the Overlord Cauldron would still be unable to be completely transformed into an Immortal King weapon because he himself had not achieved the Immortal King status and was trapped in the Immortal King Path.
But if we just compare them in terms of power, the Overlord Cauldron at that time was definitely not inferior to the Immortal King’s weapon!
Moreover, when he truly achieves the status of Immortal King in the future, the inherent strength of the ownerless Immortal King weapon will also explode, and it may even directly push the Overlord Cauldron to the level of a peak Immortal King weapon comparable to the Human Emperor Sword.
