Chapter 320: Conferring the title of Ghost Emperor
"This Heavenly Power..."

Receiving the complete Heavenly Dao authority for the first time, Fang Chen stood up with a somersault, dusted off his body, and began to study it eagerly.

Then he frowned.

The power of Heaven is very strong, there is no doubt about it.

The most important thing is to condense the origin of the way of heaven.

The origin of Heaven's Way has infinite magical uses. Fang Chen himself has experienced it. Whether using the Heaven's Evolution Method or allowing the Five Elements Cave Heaven to directly cross over and develop into the Primordial Realm, it is an extremely powerful ability.

However, it now seems that these are just the tip of the iceberg of the effects of the origin of heaven.

The true power of the origin of Heaven's Way lies in its omnipotence.

That's right, omnipotent.

For cultivators, it can be used to improve realm, change qualifications, transform physique and so on.

For the world, it can maintain the operation of the avenue, create spiritual veins, materialize all things, and transform all things...

In addition to maintaining the operation of the avenue, other abilities and divine powers can also do it.

Fang Chen suddenly discovered that the function of the origin of the Heavenly Dao seemed to be a large-scale divine power.

"So, the essence of Shinto's law is actually imitating the way of heaven?"

The greatest benefit of discovering the similarities between divine power and the origin of heaven's way is to understand the essence of divine way.

Imitate the way of heaven.

What a grand goal of cultivation.

"The ultimate goal of Shinto should be to become the Way of Heaven. Thinking about it this way, it seems not wrong to say that the so-called omniscient and omnipotent God is the Way of Heaven."

After thinking deeply, the ultimate goal of Shintoism was placed before Fang Chen.

"What is the essence of the immortal way of cultivation?"

Fang Chen began to recall his conversations with Tianyu, Zhu Yueyao and Yue Yunni, as well as the insights he had gained from his practice.

The essence of immortal practice is to follow the way of heaven and then transcend the way of heaven.

First comply and gain strength from the Way of Heaven, then transcend and be detached from the world.

Therefore, when one practices the way of immortality to the end, each time one reaches a higher realm, it will bring about a thunder calamity from heaven.

Similar ghost cultivation is part of the immortal cultivation method, and it is the same situation, both of them rely on external forces to strengthen themselves.

The watershed is the state of overcoming tribulation.

Starting from the Tribulation Period, every major breakthrough in realm would bring about a thunder tribulation.

Therefore, the monks all believed that the method of practicing the immortal way was a path that went against the will of heaven.

However, Fang Chen, who had obtained the authority of the Heavenly Dao of the Yuanshi Realm, found that this matter was somewhat different from what the cultivators thought.

The so-called road against heaven is actually just a part of the operation of heaven.

The way of heaven allows any living being in the world to surpass itself.

But you must also withstand His tests.

This is why there is a thunder tribulation.

Moreover, thunder tribulation is actually a blessing.

"Think about it carefully. The way of cultivation of the way of gods is to become the way of heaven, and the way of cultivation of immortals is to transcend the way of heaven. What is the way of cultivation of the way of destiny? Senior Tianyu said that the way of destiny is similar to the way of gods. Could it be that it is also for the purpose of becoming the way of heaven?"

Thinking of the ways of immortals and gods, Fang Chen naturally thought of the way of luck and said in a low voice.

"No, the essence of the Way of Luck and the Way of God is the same, both of which bring together countless insignificant forces. The only difference is that the Way of Luck is used for the benefit of the masses, while the power of God can be used for oneself or for the benefit of the masses. It is all decided by the God himself, but the Human King cannot be so free."

As Fang Chen muttered to himself, Zhu Yueyao's voice rang in his mind.

"Huh? The power of the Blood God Vine..."

Only then did he notice that the Blood God Vine had returned to his body and was coexisting with him.

It also caused his strength to surge.

Although this amount of power is still not worth mentioning in the world of the Divine Dynasty.

However, before Fang Chen could feel how much his strength had increased, a red light flashed and Zhu Yueyao appeared in front of him.

"Finally, we can leave the Primordial Realm. It seems that your two souls have awakened. What happened?"

"It should be because of this Chaos Treasure, but why didn't I feel anything when you left the Primordial Realm, Senior?"

Fang Chen pointed at the Chaos Treasure next to him, then asked Zhu Yueyao with some confusion.

He has now obtained the Heavenly Authority of the Yuanshi Realm. Logically speaking, anyone entering or leaving the Yuanshi Realm needs his consent.

But Zhu Yueyao just came out like that.

"You forgot that I coexist with you, so I also share some of the authority of the Heavenly Dao. Of course, if you don't trust me, you can shut down my authority at any time."

Zhu Yueyao directly explained the reason and reported her current situation to Fang Chen.

"That's not necessary. Senior has some Heavenly Dao authority in his hands. I feel very relieved. I just ask Senior not to abuse it. The Heavenly Dao of the whole world is still in a fragile balance."

There was nothing Fang Chen couldn't trust about Zhu Yueyao, and just as she said, as long as he had a thought, he could deprive her of all the Heavenly Authority that was shared from him.

In this case, there is no need to be a villain.

But he still warned Zhu Yueyao not to use the Heavenly Dao authority at will.

As I said just now, the core of Heavenly Dao authority is to condense the origin of Heavenly Dao, because no matter which authority is used, it will consume the origin of Heavenly Dao.

As for the Way of Heaven, there are two ways to condense the origin.

The first one is naturally the old-fashioned power of transforming chaos.

The power of chaos encompasses everything. All the extraordinary powers in the world are evolved from it, and the origin of the way of heaven is no exception.

Even the three most powerful people in the Fairy World, Tianyu, Zhu Yueyao and Yue Yunni, did not know much about the power of chaos.

However, unlike other extraordinary energies, the energy level of the Origin of Heavenly Dao is not much different from that of the power of chaos, and it can even be considered as the power of chaos after purification.

The impurities that have been purified are the immortal energy and spiritual energy that are extremely important to the monks.

If an ordinary cultivator obtains the origin of the Heavenly Dao, even if only a small part of it, he can change his fate.

This also made Fang Chen understand why the Saint Clan was always tirelessly invading other worlds.

Their main goal is still the origin of the Heavenly Dao. The nine immortal saints all hope to break through to a higher realm through the origin of the Heavenly Dao.

Of course, in the fairy world, they also saw new hope.

The legacy of a truly timeless saint.

It is precisely because of the existence of this inheritance that they are cautious and dare not use their true power.

According to Tianyu, if the nine immortal saints join forces, they can directly destroy the fairy world.

But if they do so, they will neither obtain the inheritance of the Eternal Saint nor the origin of the Heavenly Dao of the Fairyland World.

It's really a thankless job.

"Don't worry. I can see that the Heavenly Dao origin currently converted by the Yuanshi Realm is basically only enough to maintain the operation of the Great Dao. There is not much surplus. Unless the situation is urgent, I will not use the Heavenly Dao authority."

Zhu Yueyao nodded. She was well aware of the dangers of exhausting the source of the Heavenly Dao, and she agreed with Fang Chen's statement.

"Yes."

Hearing Zhu Yueyao's assurance, Fang Chen just sighed softly.

It was not directed at Zhu Yueyao, but the origin of the Heavenly Dao transformed from the Yuanshi Realm in the other party's words was only enough to maintain the operation of the Great Dao.

To condense the origin of the Way of Heaven, the world needs to have multiple independently operating avenues. This can be met in any world, even some cave heavens.

It’s just that the cave heaven is a subsidiary of the world and will not appear in the chaos. After all, the barrier of the cave heaven cannot protect it from gaining a foothold in the chaos.

However, the operation of the Great Dao requires the origin of Heavenly Dao. And the origin of Heavenly Dao obtained by these Great Daos from transforming the power of chaos is just about the same as what is needed to maintain their operation.

In this case, there will be no amount of Heavenly Dao origin left.

It’s just that most worlds have extra Heavenly Dao origins.

Firstly, the more great ways a world possesses, the stronger its ability to transform the power of chaos will be, so that the amount of transformed Heavenly Dao origin exceeds that required to maintain operation.

At present, there are only seven great ways of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements in the Yuanshi Realm, and there are very few remaining sources of the Way of Heaven.

Secondly, it involves the second method of obtaining the origin of the Way of Heaven.

saint.

Every time a saint is born in the world, his mark will be left between heaven and earth. Even if the saint dies, these marks will not disappear.

For those who resonate with these imprints, their thoughts and ideas can be transformed into the origin of the Way of Heaven.

It may sound a bit abstract, but if you imagine these saints as gods, these marks as their deities, and those who resonate with them as believers, then there is no difference between it and the practice of Shintoism.

Of course, saints cannot be simply equated with gods. Those who resonate with the saints' imprint are far stronger than believers in gods.

This is just an analogy.

However, we can also see from this that there are many similarities between the laws of Shinto and the operation of the Way of Heaven.

I believe that in ancient times, there were people who had insight into the way the world's laws of nature operate and thus created the Shinto law.

After the tribulation period, one will face the thunder tribulation from heaven. In fact, it is heaven helping the cultivator to lay the foundation for becoming a saint.

So it is both a test and a blessing.

Only through repeated tempering of thunder and lightning tribulations can one lay a solid foundation for a saint, have the opportunity to become a saint, and help the Heavenly Dao obtain more of the Heavenly Dao's origin.

“So, originally the Heavenly Dao of the Immortal Spirit World hoped that all cultivators who reached the Tribulation Crossing Stage could become Saints, and only then would they build the foundation for Sainthood for everyone. However, this also caused countless cultivators to fail under the thunder tribulation…”

Thinking about the origin of Heaven's Way, Fang Chen gradually figured out some of the ideas of Heaven's Way in the original Fairy World.

Although the Heavenly Dao of the Fairy World did not have its own ideas before the emperor behind the scenes, it definitely had such a tendency.

"Any questions?"

Fang Chen's own mumblings also fell into Zhu Yueyao's ears.

Judging from his tone, he seemed a little dissatisfied with this situation, so he asked this question.

"I just think that there is no need to test and bless some people who are destined not to be qualified to become saints with thunder tribulations. This can help them reach a higher level and make more contributions."

Fang Chen touched his chin and expressed his thoughts.

Everyone has different qualifications, and in the past, the way of heaven in the fairy world treated everyone equally, which led to countless cultivators dying in thunder disasters.

In his opinion, there is no need to test some people who cannot become saints with thunder tribulations. Just let them break through step by step. Becoming Immortal Emperors can also make many contributions to the world.

"Contribution? The more powerful cultivators there are, the harder it will be for the entire world to be at peace. If it weren't for Sister Moon Goddess's overwhelming power, even if the chaotic era ended, the Fairy World would probably not have ushered in peace.

"And do you still remember the Immortal Emperor who caused the chaotic era? He was chosen as the successor by the Eternal Saint from the beginning and became the first Immortal Emperor of the Immortal Spirit World. But he was clearly the successor chosen by the Eternal Saint, so why was he hopeless to break through to the Saint level?"

Zhu Yueyao immediately raised objections to Fang Chen's idea.

Since she was talking to Fang Chen, she had tried her best to control her tone, but Fang Chen could still hear the sarcasm in her words.

Moreover, she suddenly mentioned the Immortal Emperor behind the scenes.

"Wait, you mean..."

Fang Chen was stunned for a moment, and finally realized that something was wrong.

Why can't the successor chosen by the Eternal Saint even reach the saint level?

Now that we know more information, it is easy to explain.

The Immortal Emperor behind the scenes used his identity as the designated successor to escape the thunder tribulation.

"That's right. The Age of Chaos was ended by Sister Moon God. She had heard a lot of legends about the Immortal Emperor, one of which was that his breakthroughs would not bring about thunder tribulations. Sister Moon God and I were envious at the time. Now that I think about it, he brought it upon himself."

Zhu Yueyao snorted coldly. If you want to take shortcuts, you will eventually get retribution.

"Then I'll think about it again."

After Zhu Yueyao's reminder, Fang Chen no longer insisted on his opinion.

This is indeed a serious matter.

The Immortal Emperor behind the scenes was not a wicked person at the beginning. On the contrary, he possessed many good qualities.

All of them were inherited by the current Fang Chen.

Fang Chen previously thought that his personality was shaped for Zhao Ziying and Yue Li, but the two told him that this was not the case.

The Immortal Emperor was originally such a person.

However, after he became the first Immortal Emperor through cheating, he could no longer make further breakthroughs.

The lifespan of the Immortal Emperor is measured in millions of years. Over such a long period of time, his personality has become distorted to the point that he has forgotten that he still has these qualities.

Finally, when you are in harmony with the Tao, you will throw them all away.

Fang Chen’s idea is good, but this will eventually lead to the birth of a second, third, or even endless number of Immortal Emperors with distorted personalities.

Brought endless troubles to the Yuanshi Realm.

“No wonder they say that the world is cruel and treats all things as straw dogs. Even if the superiors have good intentions, they will cause irreversible consequences.”

Thinking of this, Fang Chen had a deeper understanding of the cruelty of heaven and earth.

I also became more aware of how heavy the responsibility I shoulder is.

After all, he possesses the authority of the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Realm, which is equivalent to becoming the Heavenly Dao of the Primordial Realm. If he makes any mistakes, the consequences will be irreversible.

On second thought, I'm afraid that the eternal saint who created the fairy world was the same at the beginning.

He took it for granted that part of the Heavenly Authority of the Fairy World was handed over to a fellow villager who seemed to have all kinds of good virtues, which eventually led to a tragedy that caused countless deaths and injuries in the Fairy World.

As a result, the fairy world is now torn apart.

"Your Majesty, since you have already mastered the authority of the Heavenly Dao of the entire world, the Immortal Dynasty Imperial Ceremony that has been delayed for ten years should now be held, so as to announce your return to all the people of the Immortal Dynasty."

Seeing that Fang Chen had been convinced by her and had given up his immature idea, Zhu Yueyao took the opportunity to propose the next plan.

This is also something that has been discussed long ago.

"Let's make the preliminary preparations first. There is something more important waiting for me to do now."

Fang Chen nodded and did not object to Zhu Yueyao's statement.

The establishment ceremony is not just a ceremony, it also allows him to legitimately re-plan the Xian Dynasty, eliminate malpractices and improve efficiency.

So we must not only do it, but also do it well.

But this also requires a lot of preparation and cannot be accomplished overnight.

What's more, there is something urgent.

"what's up?"

Zhu Yueyao asked curiously.

"Confer the title of Ghost Emperor!"

　Four thousand words updated today.

　　I didn't notice it when I was typing yesterday, and the computer system automatically updated. I always clicked to postpone the update for one week when it showed that it was about to update, until the limit was reached. I didn't pay attention to it yesterday, and as a result, after the update and automatic restart, a blue screen appeared. I forced to shut down and then restarted, and it was still a blue screen.

　　Fortunately, after trying several more times, the 360 ​​company customized version that the company required to download repaired the blue screen and helped me uninstall the updated patch, and the problem was finally solved. This is the first time in my life that I am so grateful to 360. Otherwise, if I had to reinstall the system, all my work data on this computer would be lost.

　　I don't feel like writing anymore, damn Microsoft.
