Chapter 402 Emperor’s Instructions
The abyss of darkness.
Inside the headquarters of the Alien Alliance on the Star Sea Defense Line.
After receiving the news from the higher-ups, Ling Chen, the Golden Immortal in charge of the Spiritual Clan, looked at another powerful Golden Immortal who had been sent down from before him, and said helplessly, "Fellow Daoist Ling Guan, the human race is extremely good at puppet formations and other techniques. Even if our races send more Golden Immortals, it will be difficult to truly break through the defense line. We can only rely on daily attacks to continuously reduce the strength of the formation, and then find a weak point to break through in one fell swoop."
"Based on the current situation, it will be possible to succeed in another five or six hundred years, but the human race is also continuously strengthening the formation..."
Lingguan Jinxian was a beast spirit genius. He couldn't help but snorted, "Five or six hundred years... the speed at which that young human has risen and grown has shocked all races. This time, the palace was born and he even obtained the top-level secret method. If he is given more time to grow, let alone you, even if I do it myself, I may not be able to suppress him!"
Ling Chen frowned and said, "No matter how strong he is, he is only a Mahayana. Even if he can compete with a True Immortal with many means, a Golden Immortal is not at the same level as a True Immortal. Besides, hundreds of Golden Immortals have been gathered by various tribes in the Star Sea. As long as they can break through the defense line, that young man will not be able to escape even if he has wings!"
"Lingchen."
"You know nothing about beastmen."
Ling Guan said coldly, "Put away your contempt and arrogance. That young man is a true beast spirit. You can never judge his strength by his cultivation. No wonder you have been in the lower realm for so long without any progress. I will report to the higher-ups and have you replaced."
"you……"
Ling Chen was very angry, but the other party was a beast spirit genius after all, and he could not compare with him in terms of strength or background. Therefore, even if he was scolded by the other party, he dared not say anything, "I am incompetent, so please ask fellow Taoist Lingguan to take charge of the defense affairs!"
After saying that, he turned and left, but before he had gone far, he heard the word "waste" in his ear, which almost made him break down. In the end, he suppressed his anger. There was no other way. Even if the beast spirit genius had no background, his status was far superior to those of his peers, not to mention that this spiritual temple also had a Master, the Immortal King.
In fact, it is not only in the spirit race. Since the appearance of the Ten Thousand Spirits List, the situation in each race is similar. The beast spirit geniuses have noble status, and some geniuses are even arrogant and domineering, looking down on others. The attitude of this spirit viewer is already considered good.
And almost at the same time.
The Demon Clan, Monster Clan, and Flame Clan have also successively dispatched beast spirit geniuses at the Golden Immortal level, and also bestowed them with powerful fairy treasures, determined to break through the human defense line as soon as possible.
…
Misty fairy peak.
The sixteen immortals of the human race gathered together.
The other Immortal Lords first congratulated the three Immortal Lords Nan Ji, Yao, and Yu, and then discussed the matter of the secret method of the Great Dao with them in a low voice.
Soon the matter was brought to public discussion among the tribes.
Some immortals proposed to collect all the secret techniques obtained this time into the clan's treasury, and then give them to Qi, Yao and other six immortals according to the clan's contribution. In this way, all immortals can practice the secret techniques and enhance the clan's foundation.
There are quite a few people who agree with this.
Even other immortals who had good relations with Nan Ji, Yao and other immortals agreed.
Although the ordinary avenue secret method leads directly to the peak avenue, it is still difficult to rely on it to break through to the emperor. However, one can use the secret method as a reference to verify oneself. With time, the chance of breaking through to the emperor will increase. Therefore, the other ten immortals who are not qualified to enter the palace have reached a rare consensus on this point.
Qi, Yao, Yue, Bing, Yu, Nanji and other six immortals did not say anything. Their faces were calm, but they knew in their hearts that the other immortals must have discussed it secretly, but this matter had both advantages and disadvantages for them.
Emperor Tianhong glanced at the six immortals, then looked at Immortal Bing and Immortal Yue, "What do you two think of this suggestion?"
Two of the four ordinary great secret techniques were obtained by the two of them on the stone bridge through their own understanding. To a certain extent, the secret techniques belonged to them, and the remaining two were jointly owned by the six of them.
Of course the two Immortals would not agree. What a joke! They had worked hard to comprehend the Stone Bridge Diagram and obtained the secret method, so how could they be willing to share it with other Immortals? It’s just that they cannot say such things in public. If it was before the appearance of the Ten Thousand Spirits List, they would not have any concerns and would refuse without hesitation.
But now it’s different.
The List of Ten Thousand Spirits gives cohesion to the top leaders of each ethnic group, at least on the surface. After all, if there is infighting, the ethnic group will only continue to decline. Therefore, even the most selfish and solitary immortals have to consider the overall situation of the ethnic group.
"We will obey the Emperor's orders."
The two Immortal Lords said respectfully.
Emperor Tianhong glanced at Nanji, Yao and other immortals again. He knew in his heart that this matter was not as simple as it seemed. Half of these immortals were trying to obtain the top-level secret techniques. If the six immortals were willing to contribute ordinary secret techniques, then Shen Ping would have no reason to refuse. Nanji and the others also understood this and chose to remain silent.
To this.
He understood it very well. After all, when one reaches the level of the Immortal Venerable or the Emperor Venerable, pursuing the great Dao to break through oneself is everything, and the secret method of the top great Dao is an opportunity.
If it weren't for the Tai Ling Jiu Tian River, he would definitely obey the majority. Of course, if Shen Ping refused, he would not force him, but the other immortals would definitely feel uncomfortable.
There was a brief silence.
Emperor Tianhong slowly said, "I want to accept Shen Ping as my registered disciple. When he breaks through to become a True Immortal and ascends to heaven, he can officially become my personal disciple. What do you think?"
As soon as these words came out.
The other immortals had different expressions, but they all showed a bitter smile at the same time. If Shen Ping became the disciple of the Emperor, how could they dare to ask him to contribute his secret method? The meaning revealed by the Emperor was already very clear.
Nanji Xianzun was the first to laugh and said, "Most of the strongest geniuses from other races worship Emperor Zun as their teacher. Naturally, our human race must also cultivate outstanding descendants and cannot let other races laugh at us."
Qi Xianzun nodded, "Yes, this junior Shen Ping has excellent comprehension and character. He will not be humiliated to be the disciple of Emperor Zun."
Yue Xian Zun simply agreed with both hands. She pursed her red lips and said, "Shen Ping is the strongest genius of our human race. This matter will become a good story."
Upon seeing this, the other immortals all echoed it.
Emperor Tianhong smiled, "Since everyone agrees, then this matter is settled. As for the secret method of the Great Dao..."
Nanji Xianzun immediately said: "Just follow the previous clan rules. If the items belonging to the Xianzun are willing to be given, a certain contribution to the clan will be made. At the same time, if other Xianzun want this item, they must pay a contribution to the clan. The secret method of the Great Dao is special. Contributions can be made according to the time spent on comprehending and practicing the secret method. Part of this contribution can be given to the person who provided the secret method."
“I agree.”
“Second.”
"That's a very good point."
…
The headquarters of Zhenbaolou of Wuzhou and Sihai.
Lian Xuejin quickly received the message from the Emperor. After learning the results of the discussion on the secret method of the Great Dao, her tense spirit relaxed. When she learned that the Emperor wanted to accept Shen Ping as his disciple, joy suddenly appeared in her eyes.
This is the Emperor! A great and powerful person standing at the top of all races.
Being able to have such a strong man as a teacher is like reaching heaven in one step.
Many Immortal Kings do not have such an opportunity. Although Shen Ping is a beast spirit genius and extremely outstanding, Lian Xuejin has never thought that the Emperor would accept him as a disciple.
No hesitation.
She hurried to the side hall where Shen Ping was meditating quietly and told him the news.
However, Shen Ping was not very excited. He looked at Lian Xuejin and said, "Master, I already have you, how can I become your disciple again?"
He follows the lineage of beast spirits, and although the paths lead to the same destination, he has mostly relied on himself, the virtual panel and some opportunities. Therefore, even though he could benefit a lot from worshipping the Emperor as his teacher, Shen Ping didn't feel much about it. It might be because he had come into contact with the Immortal Lord many times and had seen the projection of the Emperor in person.
Lian Xuejin's dignified and gentle face showed a rare blush. She glared at Shen Ping, then said earnestly: "Disciple, for cultivators of our generation who pursue immortality, it is normal to have multiple masters as teachers. For example, I have three teachers, one is the foundation-building stage, one is the Nascent Soul stage, and the last one is your master."
"You are now a Mahayana, and you have the lineage of beast spirits, and you have obtained the top-level secrets of the Great Dao. Your master can't teach you anything, so if you can worship the Emperor as your master, you will grow faster."
As she said this, she smiled and said, "Besides, even if you become the disciple of Emperor Zun in the future, I am still your master. Can you still deny it?"
There's even a hint of coquettishness at the end.
When Shen Ping heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Master, how can I not acknowledge you? You will always be my master."
"Okay, pack up quickly, burn incense and take a bath, then go see the Emperor."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Yes, Master."
After separating from Lian Xuejin.
Shen Ping tidied himself up a bit and came to the core of Jiuzhou Tower, that narrow room. Soon he saw the projection of the Emperor.
"Disciple Shen Ping greets Master!"
He immediately performed the ceremony of paying homage to his teacher.
A hint of smile appeared in the Emperor's eyes. "Yes, although this place is simple, since you have performed the ceremony, you will be my registered disciple from now on."
Wow.
A gentle force lifted Shen Ping up.
"I have fifteen direct disciples, twelve of whom are already at the level of Immortal Kings, and the other two are Immortal Lords. Unfortunately, they died in the sea of boundaries. You are the one with the lowest cultivation level and the youngest age that I have ever accepted."
Emperor Tianhong sighed for a moment, then looked at Shen Ping and said, "Generally speaking, it is a big deal for a clan to accept a disciple, even if it is a nominal disciple. However, the current situation is special, so everything should be kept simple. Few people know about this, so you should not publicize it for the time being. It won't be too late to hold a grand ceremony after you ascend."
Having said that, he lightly placed his finger on Shen Ping's brow.
Wow.
Suddenly, a stream of spiritual information poured in.
Shen Ping's whole body trembled slightly, and his sea of consciousness immediately received a large number of Dao patterns.
"This is Dao pattern writing. Although it is the basic practice for the Immortal King and Immortal Venerable levels, with your spiritual awareness and cultivation, it will take at least nearly a thousand years to fully practice it. If I pass it on to you directly, it will save you a lot of time."
Emperor Tianhong said seriously, "You should have heard about the secret method of the Great Dao from your master, but I want to hear your opinion."
Shen Ping first digested the Dao pattern information, then calmed down his emotions and said, "Master, the top Dao secrets are inherited and recorded in the disciple's sea of consciousness. Others cannot obtain them. As for the ordinary Dao secrets... I have already given one of them to Master Lian. For the remaining three, I am willing to contribute one Dao secret, just follow the rules of the tribe."
Listen to this.
Emperor Tianhong smiled and said, "You can have such an idea, you still have a big picture. The secret method of the Great Dao is precious. Even if it is at an ordinary level, ordinary cultivators must have the cultivation level of an Immortal King to access it. Only beast spirit masters do not have this restriction. If your master wants to become a true beast spirit master, he will have to spend a lot of effort."
Shen Ping said without thinking, "Disciple will do his best to help Master Lian become a beast spirit."
Emperor Tianhong couldn't help but laugh. The fact that Shen Ping could treat his master like this showed his good character. Although he didn't need this disciple to do anything for him, he was still very satisfied with his character.
We chatted about the secret methods of the great Dao for a while.
Emperor Zun changed the subject and said, "Disciple, do you still remember what your master told you before? Try to comprehend a great way of heaven and earth before ascending."
Shen Ping hurriedly said: "Disciple will keep this in mind."
"I can't explain it to you in detail. You just need to know that if you comprehend a great way of heaven and earth before ascending, you will receive the grace of heaven and earth when you ascend. This is a gift from the world to living beings, and it is very rare."
"Even I, the master, missed this opportunity."
After listening.
Shen Ping was slightly shocked. It was actually a gift from heaven and earth. "Master, I will try my best."
Emperor Tianhong hummed, "You have top-level secrets of the Great Dao, and you are also a beast spirit master. In addition, Jiehai Peak carefully cultivates beast spirit masters, so I think it is possible. In addition, you have obtained a lot of secrets of the Great Dao this time, and the leaders of various tribes will definitely take action. You must be mentally prepared."
"Even though the leaders of each race paid attention to it before, they didn't really care too much. However, the top-level secrets are different... The leaders of each race are likely to do whatever it takes. The human race, including your master, can only give you some protection, but there are bound to be accidents, so you must be vigilant."
While talking.
A strange bronze symbol appeared in his palm.
"This bronze talisman can save your life at a critical moment, even if other emperors do it themselves. You must keep it well."
Shen Ping took the bronze talisman and said, "Thank you, Master."
Before leaving.
Emperor Tianhong instructed: "All external objects are only auxiliary, and cultivation still depends on oneself. You can follow the beast spirit lineage, which is both an opportunity and a challenge... If you have any questions about the Dao patterns and the understanding of the Dao, you can come here to ask."
"Yes, Master."
Watching the Emperor’s projection disappear.
Shen Ping held the bronze talisman in his hand, feeling relaxed. With the identity of the Emperor's registered disciple, he would not have to hide or conceal any information when obtaining resources in the future.
Return to the main hall.
He first said goodbye to Lian Xuejin, then left the Five Continents and Four Seas and returned to the City Lord's Mansion of Huishi City. He came to the pavilion by the lake, looking at the rippling lake water. He was in a very happy mood, and did not rush to practice the secret method of the Great Dao. He extended his spiritual consciousness, sensed his wife, concubines and Taoist companions, and then transmitted his message.
