Chapter 256: Transcending Life in One Lifetime (Gift Value +16)

Ning Changqing ran away.
This time, however, he remained silent.
He didn't utter another threat.
He was severely injured.
Su Chen made a token, casual move.
Inflicting further damage on Ning Changqing.
But he didn't kill him outright.
Su Chen was quite satisfied with Ning Changqing, this treasure-hunting rat.
Countless people throughout history had failed to find the Yaochi Ruins. Even the mastermind behind the destruction of the entire Yaochi Holy Land couldn't obtain the Yaochi Immortal Spirit. With Ning Changqing's appearance, not only did the Yaochi Holy Land Ruins spontaneously reappear, but even the Yaochi Immortal Tree was reborn from its annihilation, successfully transforming into all living beings and gaining the qualification for transcendence.
"Yaochi, Yaochi... From now on, you'll be called Chi Yao,"
Su Chen looked at the little one in his arms and spoke softly.
An old friend reunited.
You are not you, I am not me.
Perhaps this is the best reunion.
Su Chen thought to himself.
Chi Yao was quite satisfied with her name; it seemed she was born to have it.
Su Chen led Chi Yao away from the ruins of the Yaochi Sacred Land.
The myriad races were in uproar.
The Myriad Laws Emperor Sect possessed one of the current Great Emperors and a Supreme Immortal Spirit.
Now, that Supreme Immortal Spirit had appeared with another Supreme Immortal Spirit.
Despair and sorrow filled the masses.
First there was the Myriad Laws Immortal Spirit, then the Chaos Body, and now a Yaochi Immortal Spirit had appeared—how could they possibly survive in this era?
They didn't know.
Even Ning Changqing, who had always been humiliated by Su Chen and considered a clown,
possessed one of the nine innate treasures, was the reincarnation of the First Heavenly Venerable of the Mythical Era, and was a person of great fortune in the new era.
He wasn't weak.
It was just that Su Chen overshadowed his brilliance.
Even the prodigies of the various races who submitted to Su Chen,
any one of them, in any other era, would at least be a half-step forbidden realm, possessing the potential of a Great Emperor.
Su Chen brought Chi Yao back to the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect.
The sect's patriarch was overjoyed.
What kind of event was this?
The Myriad Laws Emperor Sect already had one immortal spirit, a rare find throughout history, a blessing from their patriarch, a sign of their ancestral lands emitting auspicious smoke.
Now, Su Chen had actually brought back another immortal spirit.
What Five Emperor Sects, what Six Emperors, what Seven Emperors—none of these could represent the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect. The Myriad Laws Emperor Sect would ultimately become the most powerful force in this universe, without exception… perhaps it would be hailed as an immortal force, eternally immortal, forever existing.
One era, one emperor, two immortal spirits.
"It's all thanks to the Emperor's Son… The Emperor's Son hasn't even become an emperor yet, but his achievements are already comparable to the founding patriarch."
Su Chen's lips twitched involuntarily as he listened to the patriarch's praise.
He was comparable to himself.
Never mind.
It doesn't seem impossible.
Su Chen began to teach Chi Yao cultivation.
Chi Yao, conceived from the Mythical Era to the New Era, has absorbed the Dao and Laws of hundreds, if not more, Great Emperors. Her talent and comprehension are not to be underestimated; perhaps she is no weaker than Su Chen in this life.
With proper guidance, she will become another supreme powerhouse in the future, and a supreme powerhouse with absolute loyalty.
Just when Su Chen was enjoying a rare moment of leisure,
deep within the Chaos Sea, a terrifying aura appeared.
A hundred years after Su Chen's breakthrough, Qin Wujie, the Chaos Body, finally broke through to the Quasi-Emperor Realm. He became even stronger, his Dao overwhelming all. Countless powerhouses beyond the Chaos Sea felt that powerful aura, filled with utter horror.
"As expected of the Chaotic Body, the number one physique in history, his aura upon breaking through to Quasi-Emperor is terrifying. He can completely stand shoulder to shoulder with those who achieve Dao through unorthodox means..."
"The Chaotic Body has left the Chaotic Land. Is he heading to the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect?"
"Back then, the Chaotic Body was defeated by the Immortal Spirit Emperor Chen of the Myriad Laws Emperor Palace. Now that he's broken through, he must be seeking revenge and fighting the Immortal Spirit again!"
"..."
Qin Wujie shouted across countless spaces
"Emperor Chen, come out and fight!"
That voice resounded throughout the universe.
From the direction of the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect
A wave emanated
piercing through everything
"If you want to fight, I will fight you."
Countless Daos and Laws, above a distant star field, converged into a figure, incomparably majestic, its appearance obscured by all living beings. One person transformed into all living beings, manifesting a hundred forms.
Su Chen's control over the Myriad Laws Great Dao was even more terrifying.
In the starry sky,
the Formless Sword Emperor and the Daylight Emperor of the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect simultaneously looked at the two figures, a bitter smile appearing on their lips.
They, the two of them, were the true emperors of this era.
But those two terrifying figures,
were even more like emperors than they were.
Su Chen and Qin Wujie's battle caused the heavens and earth to tremble, their fight reaching the Chaos Sea, and extending deep into its depths.
This battle was earth-shattering.
Although it was earth-shattering,
the ending was also earth-shattering.
...
Since the battle at Yaochi Holy Land,
Ning Changqing has never appeared again.
Ning Changqing was severely injured, but he did not die.
He realized that the immortal spirit of the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect might not be as simple as he had imagined.
But it didn't matter; he possessed the Time Wheel, one of the nine innate treasures.
He was still the Supreme Celestial Venerable of the Mythical Era.
One defeat meant nothing.
Two defeats meant nothing either.
Ning Changqing believed that he would ultimately be the one to triumph.
Although he was no match for the immortal spirit of the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect now.
But it didn't matter.
Ning Changqing cultivated, fought monsters, leveled up, and searched for treasures.
He stepped into the depths of the Chaos Sea.
He remembered that deep within the Chaos Sea lay a terrifying place; the Ancient Emperor Realm existed to suppress that terrifying place.
This was one of the greatest secrets of the Mythical Era.
The long years passed.
The Emperor's Path vanished, and even the Ancient Emperor Realm was destroyed.
Ning Changqing believed that the terrifying place still existed, a place of great terror and ancient history. Having withstood the test of time and the trials of countless eras, perhaps much of that terror had already been obliterated, and he could seize the opportunities within.
Ning Changqing successfully located the terrifying place, sealed away by numerous supreme experts before the Mythical Era.
He entered.
Many of the terrors here had been obliterated.
Ning Changqing, using various methods, reached the depths of the terrifying place.
"Legend has it that the Dark Embryo, one of the nine innate treasures, resides here."
Ning Changqing recalled the records of this terrifying place from the Mythical Era.
Countless supreme experts from the Mythical Era explored this place, but none emerged alive.
Now, he had successfully entered its depths.
Countless corpses, enduring the ravages of time, remained imperishable.
Imperial bodies—every corpse was an imperial body.
Their energy had all dissipated.
Deep within that terrifying place, there seemed to be a giant heart beating.
"It seems the record is true. The terrifying place suppressed by the Ancient Emperor Realm is indeed the Dark Embryo, one of the nine innate treasures."
Ning Changqing's tone held a faint fervor.
With just one innate treasure, he might not be a match for the immortal spirit of the Myriad Laws Emperor Sect.
But by obtaining the Dark Embryo, he would possess two innate treasures. Throughout the ages, countless supreme beings have sought even one innate treasure without success. He, Ning Changqing, alone possesses two...
What fear is there of the immortal spirit?
