Buzz—
After the operation concluded, the Immortal Sect disciples were given a holiday, while Lu Tao began his secluded cultivation.
It would take a full ten thousand years to cultivate both the physical body and the essence to the level of a perfect God Emperor. This time was extremely long, and Lu Tao did not want to waste too much time.
He devoted himself entirely to his secluded cultivation.
With a mid-grade Holy Spirit Vein, plus various enhancements, top-grade Emperor-level aptitude, mid-grade Cosmic-level cultivation techniques, and so on, Lu Tao's physical body has improved dramatically.
Almost every moment brings tremendous gains.
If this were to happen to any other living being, it would surely bring them immense joy.
But Lu Tao was already used to it.
He was completely immersed in cultivation, as if he had forgotten everything.
Lu Tao went into seclusion, and after playing for two days, all the disciples of the Immortal Sect also went into seclusion.
That's how it is.
The entire Immortal Sect fell into silence.
Other Immortal Sect disciples were either refining demonic energy or cultivating their physical bodies, while He Yuanshuang, Wu Ming, Lu Ling, and others were still consuming divine medicine and comprehending the rules.
Logically speaking, after a Divine Medicine of Rules is upgraded to a Divine Medicine of the Great Dao, although it contains very little of the Great Dao, it is an existence on another level. After consuming it, one should comprehend the Great Dao.
However, He Yuanshuang and the others had too low a cultivation level, only at the God King realm.
Therefore, limited by the laws of heaven and earth, even after consuming the divine medicine of the Great Dao, they could only comprehend the rules to perfection and could not transform them into the power of the Great Dao.
and.
The people who consumed the divine medicine did not take the whole plant; instead, they only needed to consume a small piece of leaf or blade of grass.
As time went by, people came to understand more and more rules.
Decades have passed in the blink of an eye.
Buzz—
On this day, on another planet, as a powerful fluctuation emanated, Ji Yu woke up from his seclusion, exhaling a long breath of stale air.
"It's finally healed!"
Ji Yu sighed inwardly.
Severely injured, his body was almost completely reduced to ashes. After decades, he finally recovered completely with the help of the Demon Armor Elephant's Great Dao of Life.
Without the Great Dao of Life, given his injuries, even with the help of elixirs, it would definitely not be possible to fully recover in just a few decades.
This demonstrates the immense power of the Way of Life.
Of course, he was also seriously injured physically in the previous battle.
As for the dantian and soul sea, they are mainly restrained by the power of the curse, so the injuries are not very serious and recovery is easier.
"Congratulations, Sect Leader!"
At this moment, the Demon Armor Elephant and Tao Ying, along with other God Emperors, approached.
Ji Yu sighed and said, "Don't call us sect leader anymore. From now on, we'll all be the master's servants. What's the point of calling us Demon Desire Sect?"
The armored elephant laughed and said, "Since our master has enslaved us but allowed our Demon Desire Sect to remain unchanged, there must be a reason why he needs us. You will remain the leader of the Demon Desire Sect from now on."
"..."
Ji wanted to open his mouth but remained silent.
His current position as the leader of the Demon Desire Sect is merely nominal. Not only will the Demon Desire Sect be completely under Lu Tao's control from now on, but even his own death will not be up to him.
Thinking of all this, Ji Yu suddenly asked curiously via telepathy, "Demon Elephants, do you know what our master's background is? What do you need us to do in the future?"
The demon emperors exchanged glances, and then all turned their gazes toward Mo Hao.
Mo Hao calmly transmitted his voice, "My lord is an ascendant from the Desolate Region."
"Hiss..."
Ji Yu couldn't help but gasp.
As the leader of the Demon Desire Sect, he had several domain prisons under his command, so he knew how difficult it was to escape from one.
He never imagined that his terrifying master was actually an ascendant who had escaped from the domain prison.
This is simply incredible.
What shocked him even more was that his master had not only escaped from the domain prison, but also possessed such terrifying talent.
The thought of an ascended being comprehending the rules of chaos is terrifying.
"Your Tianyu Sect..."
Ji Yu opened his mouth, though he felt it was inappropriate to ask such a question, but he couldn't help but ask anyway: "Isn't the Desolate Region overseen by the Divine Emperor of the Heavenly Universe Sect? How could something like this happen?"
As he said this, he couldn't help but feel a trace of resentment towards Mo Hao and Tianyu Sect.
If it weren't for the Tianyu Sect's negligence, how could he, the dignified sect leader of the Demon Desire Sect, have been enslaved?
Even now, as a servant, he couldn't help but resent the Tianyu Sect.
"Your Majesty's abilities are beyond your comprehension."
Mo Hao sighed, "When the Lord was at the Heavenly God realm, he was able to manipulate even a Perfected God King at will. After becoming a God Sovereign, he annihilated all the Perfected God Kings and Half-Step God Emperors in the Domain Prison. As for reaching the God King realm..."
Mo Hao shook his head, seemingly still somewhat puzzled: "Our Lord, who has just advanced to the God King realm, is already able to kill a late-stage God King who is in charge. Our Lord's talent is probably the greatest in history."
"I see!"
Ji Yu suddenly realized, and at the same time, his face was full of shock.
Such an exaggerated display of fighting beyond one's level left him feeling as if he were listening to a foreign language.
even.
Ji Yu also thought of the present, where Lu Tao, at the peak of the Divine Emperor realm, was fighting against him, a late-stage Divine Emperor.
On the surface, it seems that Lu Tao still needs the help of several other God Emperors to successfully defeat this late-stage God Emperor.
In fact, he knew that Lu Tao had only used half of his strength in the previous battle.
Half of his strength remains within the altar, waiting for him to walk into the trap and be enslaved.
and--
Judging from the previous battle, Lu Tao came with the intention of enslaving him from the beginning, so naturally he did not intend to kill him when dealing with him.
If it wasn't about enslaving him, but about killing him...
Ji Yu felt that perhaps Lu Tao alone could accomplish this.
This horrified him.
To kill a late-stage God Emperor with the power of a Perfected God Emperor... that's truly terrifying!
But thinking about Lu Tao's past experiences of surpassing levels, it all seems reasonable now.
Sudden.
Thinking of something, Ji Yu couldn't help but continue to ask in a telepathic message: "Since our lord is so extraordinary, why didn't your Tianyu Sect target him with all your might before? And why haven't we seen you make any moves in recent years?"
Mo Hao said bitterly, "Actually... it has only been two years since the Lord rose to power."
"Hiss..."
This time, not only Ji Yu, who was eventually enslaved by Lu Tao, but also the four others, including the Demon Armor Elephant, Tao Ying, and the Demon Rabbit, were all dumbfounded upon hearing the news.
This sounds like something out of a fantasy.
"How is this possible? In just two years, he advanced from a Celestial God to a Perfected God Emperor?"
Ji Yu was almost completely stunned, unable to believe it was real.
That sounds completely fake.
Two years is truly a blink of an eye for cultivators above the Heavenly God level, yet Lu Tao soared to great heights within those two years.
That's absolutely outrageous!
But upon closer reflection, it seems quite reasonable.
If Lu Tao's rise to power takes too long, Tianyu Sect will certainly not sit idly by and watch him grow.
Not to mention the God Emperor, even the Saints must be called back. Only by killing Lu Tao in the cradle can we be at ease.
With this in mind.
Ji Yu suddenly remembered something and frowned, saying, "So, the reason why your Tianyu Sect summoned the Divine Emperor disciples and Elder Fu to work so hard recently was because of the Master?"
“Not bad!” Mo Hao nodded.
"No wonder..."
Ji Yu suddenly realized.
He suddenly realized why Elder Fu had been probing the three clans all the time; it was because Lu Tao had fled the desolate region.
That makes sense when you think about it.
Given Lu Tao's rapid cultivation speed, it's hard to believe he has no secrets.
Since Lu Tao was trapped in the boundary wall, Elder Fu regarded all of Lu Tao's secrets as his own.
Now that Lu Tao has escaped the desolate region and enslaved Mo Hao, creating the impression that he was intercepted by other powerful figures, it's no wonder Elder Fu is anxious.
After figuring all this out, Ji Yu resigned himself to his fate.
certainly.
Even if he doesn't accept his fate, he can't resist it.
The mark of enslavement has been made; from now on, he will be Lu Tao's servant, and there is virtually no chance of him regaining his freedom.
Buzz!
Just then, Lu Tao suddenly appeared in front of the emperors.
"Greetings, Lord!"
The six God Emperors all bowed in unison, some even feeling a little apprehensive, wondering if Lu Tao had heard about their earlier whispered conversation.
"No need for formalities!"
Lu Tao nodded indifferently, not paying any attention to their comments.
Lu Tao looked at Ji Yu and said, "What I promised you earlier, I'm giving it to you now."
As he spoke, Lu Tao took out five divine herbs of the Great Dao of Desire and threw them to Ji Yu, saying, "Swallowing these divine herbs of the Great Dao of Desire will allow you to comprehend the Great Dao of Desire to perfection."
"Gurgle!"
Ji Yu tremblingly accepted the divine medicine, and couldn't help but swallow hard.
Even with the Great Dao Divine Medicine in his hand, Ji Yu still felt a sense of unreality.
This is a divine medicine of the Great Dao, not some ordinary onion or garlic.
More importantly, there were not just one or two of these divine herbs, but a total of six. There was also a broken divine herb in his soul sea, but its medicinal effects could not be absorbed by him.
The value of such a miraculous herb as Liuzhu is... even if he were to exchange all his possessions for it, he might not be able to get it.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Ji Yu knelt down on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Tao.
Whether he was Lu Tao's servant or not, this grace of enlightenment, which enabled him to reach the ultimate in the path of desire, was an immense favor.
"Yes, you can take these pills too; they can quickly improve your cultivation."
Lu Tao nodded slightly and handed another handful of experience pills to Ji Yu.
"Yes, my lord!"
Ji Yu accepted the pill, his heart filled with excitement.
He had initially been worried that Lu Tao would kill him afterward, but now it seemed unlikely.
after all.
If they really wanted to kill him, why would they have carefully nurtured him?
You should know that after he takes the Great Dao Divine Medicine and comprehends the Great Dao of Desire to its fullest extent, even if his cultivation level is not yet at the peak of the God Emperor realm, his combat power will be enough to rival that of an ordinary peak God Emperor.
Such formidable combat power is something no entity would abandon.
Even a saint would not easily give up such a servant and would keep him by his side to serve him.
"Now it seems that becoming a servant isn't so bad."
At this moment, such a thought flashed through Ji Yu's mind.
Lu Tao instructed, "Alright, go into seclusion and try to improve your strength as soon as possible."
"Yes, my lord!"
Ji Yu bowed and accepted the order, then chose a place to begin his seclusion.
The other five God Emperors could only watch with envy.
Buzz—
As Ji Yu went into seclusion, he originally planned to consume the Great Dao Divine Medicine again to enhance his Great Dao. However, at that very moment, the effects of the Desire Great Dao Divine Medicine scattered in his soul sea were fully released.
"Huh? I can absorb its medicinal effects now?"
Ji Yu was extremely surprised.
He clearly hadn't seen Lu Tao make any move with the divine herb, nor had he ever touched it. Yet, the medicinal effects that he hadn't been able to absorb before, no matter how hard he tried, were now not only being absorbed, but were even being released on their own.
This situation left Ji Yu somewhat bewildered and filled with confusion.
But he didn't have time to think too much; he could only wholeheartedly absorb the effects of the medicine and try his best to comprehend the great path of desire.
Buzz!
As the effects of the medicine were absorbed, Ji Yu felt his understanding of the Great Dao of Desire rising rapidly.
Even the slightest bit of medicinal effect is many times greater than what he obtained from the array world.
This is the divine medicine of the Great Dao!
It inherently contains the Great Dao, and consuming it allows living beings to get closer to the Great Dao. There is no need to do anything else; one's understanding of the Great Dao will naturally improve.
That's how it is.
Ji Yu was completely immersed in the exhilarating feeling of ascending to the Great Dao.
After absorbing a whole Great Dao Divine Herb, Ji Yu felt that his understanding of the Great Dao had reached the level corresponding to the eighth level of the God Emperor.
This made Ji Yu ecstatic.
Next, he took the Great Dao Divine Medicine one after another, and his understanding of the Great Dao of Desire became deeper and deeper.
After he absorbed all the medicinal effects of the six Great Dao Divine Herbs, Ji Yu was shocked to find that, just as Lu Tao had said, his Great Dao of Desire had truly reached its peak.
In terms of the Great Dao, he reached the level of a perfect God Emperor.
"This... how could the Lord have such precise control?"
Ji Yu was extremely surprised.
Six divine herbs of the Great Dao, no more and no less, just enough to bring his Great Dao of Desire to perfection. Ji Yu didn't believe it was a coincidence.
And if it wasn't a coincidence...
This means that Lu Tao, who is only at the peak of the Divine Emperor realm, has achieved such perfect control over his Great Dao cultivation.
This is truly unbelievable.
Suddenly, Ji Yu remembered the pills that Lu Tao had given him.
"Could this elixir also allow me to reach the peak of the God Emperor realm?"
Thinking of this, Ji Yu's heart began to pound uncontrollably: "If my cultivation could reach the peak of the God Emperor realm, and I could also achieve the Great Dao, then... I could attempt to break through to the Saint realm?"
Ji Yu took a deep breath. His heart was filled with extreme complexities, and he was struggling with what choice to make.
According to his previous thinking, if he could regain his freedom, he certainly wouldn't let such an opportunity pass him by.
But now...
If these pills can truly enable him to quickly become a God Emperor, then Lu Tao's methods are so outrageous that no other being in the entire God Realm can compare.
Even a Saint Realm expert is far inferior.
and.
Ji Yu also thought about how quickly Lu Tao had advanced. If this continued, it meant that Lu Tao would soon become a God Emperor, a God Emperor at the peak, or even a Saint.
If he had remained Lu Tao's servant, perhaps he too would have benefited and achieved sainthood.
But if he were to acquire everything from Lu Tao himself, the outcome would be...
"call……"
A variety of complex emotions arose in Ji Yu's heart, making it difficult for him to calm down for a long time. After a long while, he finally exhaled a long breath, put aside all his thoughts, and began to take the pill.
Glug!
When Ji Yu took the pill and discovered that his cultivation level had been boosted dramatically, the shock he felt was beyond words.
If he could understand the idea that divine medicines could enhance one's cultivation, given the numerous precedents in the God Realm, then he simply couldn't comprehend the idea of pills that could directly boost one's cultivation without even requiring cultivation.
It was something that had never been heard of or seen before.
"If I were to obtain such a secret..."
Ji Yu's desires surged, and greed arose along with them.
Ji Yu didn't think any further, forcibly suppressing his greed and continuing to swallow the pills.
As he consumed more and more pills, his cultivation level rose higher and higher. He soon crossed the threshold of the eighth level of the God Emperor and began to strive for the ninth level.
that's all.
In just a few days, his cultivation level advanced rapidly to the ninth level of the God Emperor realm, and he was only one step away from the perfect God Emperor realm.
This enraged Ji Yu to the extreme.
"Damn it, I was so close! If I had just one more pill like that, I could have reached the peak of the God Emperor realm. Just one!"
"He must have done it on purpose, he definitely did it on purpose!"
Ji was furious, his heart filled with boundless resentment.
But in the end.
Ji Yu's rage turned into dejection: "Alas, if it were me, with such methods, I certainly wouldn't give my servant any hope of breaking through to the Saint Realm."
Ji Yu quickly composed himself.
In any case, this at least gave him a glimmer of hope for escape, preventing him from feeling as desperate as before.
Buzz!
Just then, Lu Tao seemed to know that he had completed his upgrade and reappeared on the planet.
