"My lord, the supreme lineage of the Heavenly Court lies within this cemetery. Do you see the tallest tomb? That is the tomb of the ancient Heavenly Court's ruler, the Supreme Jade Emperor of the Golden Palace of the Vast Heaven, also known as the Supreme Lord of Heaven, who opened the heavens, held the talisman, governed the calendar, embodied the truth, possessed the Dao, held the Golden Palace of the Clouds, ruled the Nine Heavens, governed the myriad paths, and was inactive. The Great Dao of the Vast Heaven, held the Golden Palace of the Vast Heaven, was the Supreme Jade Emperor, who pardoned sins, was the Great Heavenly Venerable of the Mysterious Firmament." The obsequious voice of the Kunlun maggot echoed in Fang Xiu's mind.
The Supreme Jade Emperor, the Unsurpassed and Wondrously Existing Jade Emperor of the Golden Palace of the Vast Heaven?
The moment Fang Xiu heard this name, four words immediately came to mind: Jade Emperor.
The ruler of the heavens in ancient mythology.
Fang Xiu's gaze swept across the layers of tombs, finally settling on the highest one.
It was less a tomb and more a celestial palace, with endless jade pavilions and towers, resplendent in gold and jade, as if made of crystal and adorned with precious stones. Golden rays rolled in red and auspicious clouds sprayed purple mist. Under the reflection of the misty atmosphere, it looked more like a celestial palace than a tomb.
"My lord, the tomb contains the Nine Dragons Supreme Law, the highest celestial technique, which is a supreme technique that only the Jade Emperor can cultivate!"
Nine Dragons Supreme Law?
Fang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly. He learned from Wuwei Kongjian that the people of the previous era practiced a method called the visualization method.
Strictly speaking, visualization is about visualizing one's own deity, cultivating one's spirituality, transforming one's mind into the shape of the deity, and thus possessing the abilities of the deity.
Then there's a question: who are the deities contemplating?
Or is it that there is no need for visualization at all, just like the current Spirit Masters, who are purely unorthodox, fighting without cultivation, and relying entirely on life-and-death experiences to break through?
Now that the Kunlun maggots say that the Jade Emperor cultivates the Nine Dragons Supreme Technique, it means that cultivation in ancient times was systematic, unlike now, where breakthroughs rely entirely on battle.
As for visualization? Could it be visualization of nine dragons?
Fang Xiu thought it was unlikely. According to mythology, the Jade Emperor was extremely noble, and even a so-called true dragon was nothing more than a mudfish in front of him. How could he possibly visualize a dragon?
Suddenly, he activated his ethereal form and walked step by step toward the Jade Emperor's tomb.
Along the way, he passed one tall tomb after another, each inscribed with a name or title, but unfortunately, he did not recognize the ancient script.
Those words seem to contain some kind of mysterious power. When you gaze at them, you feel as if they are alive, like little tadpoles wriggling. But if you shift your gaze slightly, you will find that they are not moving at all.
That profound feeling is very similar to laws and regulations.
Fang Xiu speculated that ancient writing was very likely evolved from laws and decrees. This is why there are talismans and similar items in myths and legends, which can exert all sorts of incredible effects simply by writing on them, because those characters are the embodiment of laws and decrees.
Even written characters contain laws and regulations; how magnificent and turbulent must the ancient times have been? Yet, even so, the Heavenly Court no longer exists.
No wonder Zhou Qingfeng thought of joining the supernatural; the gap between the present world and the other side was so vast that it was despairing.
Even the gods and immortals have been defeated. How can you, a mere mortal, possibly turn the tide?
Soon, he arrived at the tomb of the Jade Emperor. Instead of admiring the magnificence of the tomb, he walked straight into it.
He could easily imagine the terrifying power contained within this tomb, but in the face of the ethereal, it was all meaningless.
Upon entering, it was completely different from the palace I had imagined. What greeted my eyes was a vast and boundless starry sky, as if I had stepped into the universe.
Brilliant stars of various colors are scattered throughout the Milky Way, moving in accordance with the laws of the celestial sphere, with an unimaginable force of annihilation flowing within them.
At the very center of all the stars, a golden imperial star, resembling the sun, radiates an eternal and inextinguishable light.
"My lord, the Nine Dragons Supreme Law is located within the Imperial Star, and the Jade Emperor's coffin is also on it."
"Oh? How did you know?"
"My lord, you also know my origin. I was born from countless corpses... a maggot, and naturally I also possess some fragments of memories from ancient powerful beings. This is what I learned from the memories of the Jade Emperor's personal guards."
The Jade Emperor's tomb was originally the Heavenly Emperor's Treasury, a place he specifically used to store treasures. Each of those stars contains some treasures, more or less.
Fang Xiu looked at the nearest star, which was an earthy yellow star. He saw the phantom of a square, yellow ruler reflected on it, and a heavy aura emanated from it, as if it weighed ten thousand jin and was enough to crush the void.
"My lord, this is a treasure. Its name is Xuanhuang Ruler. Don't let its unassuming appearance fool you. With just a slight touch, it can cause the heavens and the earth to shatter. You should take it quickly. Although there are many restrictions on it, with your abilities, you don't need to worry about them at all."
Upon hearing Kunlun Maggot's words, Fang Xiu did not take the Xuanhuang Ruler, but instead flew straight towards the Emperor Star.
"Oh no, my lord, you've come to the wrong place. The Xuanhuang Ruler is over here."
Fang Xiu acted as if he hadn't heard anything and walked straight past the Xuanhuang Ruler.
"My lord, you must not like the Xuanhuang Ruler. Then look at this immortal sword on the right. This is the Chixiao Immortal Sword. When it is drawn, the world will be shocked... Oh, my lord, why are you leaving again?"
He doesn't even want the Crimson Sky Immortal Sword?
Surely you'd be interested in the Seven Treasures Gourd? It contains seven gourd seeds, each possessing a unique magical power. You can consume them yourself, or raise them to become your subordinates.
Fang Xiu kept his eyes straight ahead, continuing forward as if the Emperor Star was the only thing on his mind.
He didn't take a single treasure he saw along the way.
The Kunlun maggots were extremely anxious, perfectly illustrating the saying "the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is."
