Chapter 3508 Primordial Dao Fruit

One month later.

Inside the Yangxin Residence.

Gu Xing cupped his hands and said, “Sect Master Shen!”

“Fellow Daoist, you’ve come to say goodbye, haven’t you?”

Shen Changqing smiled faintly, having seen through Gu Xing’s thoughts.

The latter smiled wryly and nodded: “All good things must come to an end. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will certainly come to the Xuantian Dao Sect and sit down with Sect Master Shen to discuss the Dao again.

In addition, if any cultivators from the Eternal Immortal Court ascend in the future, I hope Sect Master Shen can inform me of this.”

Gu Xing added at the end.

The Eternal Immortal Court was his foundation in the myriad universes. If anyone could continue to ascend, he would naturally try his best to get them to join the Great Qin Immortal Court.

Now that he had been in the Upper Realm for a long time, Gu Xing understood the meaning of ascension.

Any cultivator who could cultivate to the Ancient Immortal Realm in the Lower Realm and then ascend was of high aptitude. Even if they didn’t break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm in the future, they could at least reach the peak of the Ancient Immortal Realm, or even the level of a half-step Immortal Emperor.

Such geniuses. Gu Xing

naturally wanted to try and win over

the other ascendants. He had no intention of competing with them, but he was quite confident about the people from the Eternal Immortal Court.

At the same time ,

he understood

how important the Ascension Altar of the Xuan Tian Dao Sect was.

Although it wasn’t easy for an ascendant to appear in the lower universes, as far as Gu Xing knew, the current universes were entering an unprecedented golden age. There were

more than just one or two cultivators truly qualified to ascend.

Moreover,

controlling the Ascension Altar was equivalent to controlling the ascension passage of that universe.

If someone else ascended later, they could be used for one’s own purposes.

However—

envy aside, Gu Xing didn’t have many thoughts about it.

The Eternal Immortal Court was nominally the overlord of the universes, but everyone knew that the person before him was the true ruler of the universes.

Gu Xing could only try to win over the cultivators of the Eternal Immortal Court, but he had no interest in the other cultivators.

At this moment,

Shen Changqing flipped his hand, and a jade slip appeared.

“This is a cultivation technique I was fortunate enough to obtain in the past, called the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture. If one cultivates it to its peak, it can open up a universe of nine great suns, and its power is considerable.

Fellow Daoist Gu, you have left this journey, and I do not know when you will return. This technique is a token of my sincerity.”

“An Immortal Emperor’s technique!”

Gu Xing’s heart trembled. He looked at the jade slip before him, wanting to refuse, but the weight of the Immortal Emperor’s inheritance made it difficult for him to truly speak. Taking

a deep breath, he accepted the jade slip with both hands and said in a deep voice, “Sect Master Shen, I will never forget your kindness in bestowing this technique upon me today!”

After speaking

, he took a step back and bowed deeply to Shen Changqing.

Shen Changqing smiled faintly: “Although the inheritance of the technique is good, whether one can reach the final step still depends on one’s own aptitude, perseverance, and opportunities.

I hope that when we meet again in the future, you will have already stepped into the Immortal Emperor realm.”

“I will certainly live up to your expectations!”

Gu Xing solemnly put away the jade slip and then turned to leave.

He understood the vast gap between himself and Shen Changqing. Their current equal dialogue was solely due to their past relationship.

Without it, he wouldn’t even have the right to appear before Shen.

His years of travel had truly made Gu Xing realize what Shen Changqing represented in the Divine Heaven Domain.

Such a top-tier expert was beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.   He would remember

the favor of the gift of the technique.   At present, he could offer little help to Shen Changqing; only by improving his own strength could he demonstrate his worth.   At the very least, he needed to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.   Watching Gu Xing leave, Shen Changqing withdrew his gaze. Giving him the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture was   merely   a convenient gesture.   For other cultivators, the Immortal Emperor’s inheritance was a rare opportunity, something many forces would risk everything to avoid offending.   But for Shen Changqing, the Immortal Emperor’s inheritance was insignificant.   The number of Immortal Emperors who perished at his hands was not just a couple hundred, but at least several dozen. Although most of their possessions vanished with the destruction of their respective Immortal Emperor universes, some remained.   Currently,   Shen Changqing possesses more than just one Immortal Emperor inheritance. Even   the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture, among the many Immortal Emperor inheritances, isn’t considered the most top-tier.   At least,   compared to the Nine Luminaries Suppressing the World Scripture, it’s still a level below.   Of course,   regardless,   the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture is still a direct path to the pinnacle of Immortal Emperors, an inheritance that opened up nine universes, and its value is considerable.   However, as his vision broadened, Shen Changqing increasingly understood that having more cultivation techniques wasn’t necessarily better.   Especially Immortal Emperor-level techniques; while they might be useful for Immortal Emperors, they held little significance for the later path to Half-Saint.   Afterwards,   Shen Changqing continued to comprehend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.   …   In the boundless starry sky, a figure vanished into the void, pursued relentlessly by numerous cultivators.   After an unknown amount of time, the figure finally shook off the pursuing cultivators and hid on a desolate, ancient star.   ”Finally, I’m rid of them!”   Gu Mingfeng exhaled a breath of relief, a look of immense weight lifted from his face. He then carefully took out a celestial fruit.   The fruit emanated a Daoist aura, seemingly reflecting the birth and death of the chaotic universe. A refreshing fragrance filled his nostrils, causing his own primordial world to tremble slightly.   ”The Primordial Dao Fruit!”   ”I never imagined such a heaven-defying treasure actually existed!”   Gu Mingfeng’s eyes burned with fervor, eager to devour the fruit immediately. However, he quickly restrained himself.   His current cultivation level was insufficient to consume the Primordial Dao Fruit. If he forced himself to consume it, he would either be unable to withstand the power of this rare treasure and explode, dying instantly.

Either the effects of such a rare treasure are completely wasted, with no benefit whatsoever. This is

because the sole purpose of such Primordial Dao Fruits is to help cultivators directly create a Celestial Emperor universe, allowing a half-step Celestial Emperor to step directly into the Celestial Emperor realm.

Gu Mingfeng had only seen such heaven-defying immortal fruits in some ancient texts before; this was the first time he had actually seen one.

Amidst the scramble for the Primordial Dao Fruit, Gu Mingfeng luckily obtained it, then fled at any cost, sacrificing many of his life-saving trump cards.

But in Gu Mingfeng’s view, it was all worthwhile.

Having this Primordial Dao Fruit meant he was now qualified to break through to the Celestial Emperor realm.

Next,

he only needed to raise his cultivation to the half-step Celestial Emperor level.

However,

Gu Mingfeng was currently at the Ancient Celestial Empress level; to break through to the half-step Celestial Emperor level, he still had a long way to go.

“My time is running out. If I cultivate step by step, I might not even break through to the half-step Immortal Emperor realm by the time my lifespan ends.

Only this Chaos Dao Palace offers me a chance to break through in one step—”

Gu Mingfeng’s eyes were resolute as he made his decision.

Originally,

obtaining the Primordial Dao Fruit would have been the best outcome for him: he could quietly leave the Chaos Dao Palace now, find a place to cultivate in seclusion, and then break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.

But unfortunately,

his lifespan was limited.

Gu Mingfeng couldn’t possibly cultivate step by step.

He

then took out the Profound Heaven Dao Mirror, intending to contact the other two.

However, within this Chaos Dao Palace, the Supreme Dao suppressed it, rendering the Profound Heaven Dao Mirror useless.

Immediately, Gu Mingfeng put away the Chaos Dao Fruit and headed deeper into the starry sky.

Along the way,

he was cautious, deliberately avoiding other powerful figures. He actively avoided any fluctuations of even slightly powerful auras.

His purpose was to prevent other powerful figures from fighting and affecting him.

Gu Mingfeng was well aware that his cultivation level was among the lowest of the many cultivators entering the Chaos Dao Palace.

Those below the Ancient Immortal level, even those at the Immortal King realm, didn’t even have the qualifications to enter the Chaos Dao Palace.

Therefore

, Gu Mingfeng dared not be careless.

Caution

was the key to survival in such a place of opportunity.

However, it must be said that the Chaos Dao Palace was indeed full of opportunities; in the boundless starry sky, all kinds of rare and precious materials were almost everywhere.

Many rare and precious materials that were difficult to find in the outside world were readily available here.

Even though Gu Mingfeng acted cautiously and avoided many opportunities, he still obtained quite a few rare and precious materials, even the Primordial Immortal Fruit, which could create a Primordial World, was quite common.

After consuming several Primordial Immortal Fruits, Gu Mingfeng successfully reached the peak of the Ancient Immortal realm.

The improvement in his cultivation level gave him more confidence.

Time passed.

A thousand years went by in the blink of an eye.

A thousand years later, on a desolate star, Gu Mingfeng opened his eyes. The immortal energy that had gathered around him dissipated, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

“The last Primordial Chaos World has finally been opened!”

A thousand years had passed.

Only after breaking through from the Ancient Immortal stage to the Half-Step Immortal Emperor.

Such a thing would have been unimaginable before.

It was only in this Primordial Chaos Dao Palace, where opportunities were everywhere, that he had such a chance.

The only pity was that,

for a thousand years,

Gu Mingfeng had no news of Zheng Shan and the others, and he gave up the idea of continuing to investigate.

After all, the Primordial Chaos Dao Palace was so vast that finding one person was not easy.

Moreover—

there were many powerful people here, and Ancient Immortals acted with extreme caution. It was not impossible that the other party had truly perished.

Although Gu Mingfeng did not want to think about this last possibility, he had to admit that it was the most likely one.

Taking a deep breath, he took out the Primordial Chaos Dao Fruit.

“Next, we need to prepare for breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm. This Chaos Dao Palace is teeming with powerful figures.

Even if the Immortal Emperor Tribulation were to descend, it would inevitably attract the attention of many powerful individuals.

In that case, even if I successfully overcome the tribulation, I’m afraid I’d still be doomed—”

Gu Mingfeng’s eyes were subtle. To undergo tribulation here was a certain death.

Furthermore,

he had to admit that with his current resources, facing the Immortal Emperor Tribulation was a near-certain death.

To successfully overcome the tribulation, he needed to be adequately prepared.
