Chapter 3508 Hunyuan Dao Fruit
A month later.

Yangxinju (养心居) is located within the residence.

Gu Xing cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master Shen!"

"Fellow Daoist, have you come to say goodbye?"

Shen Changqing smiled faintly, having also discerned Gu Xing's thoughts.

The latter smiled wryly and nodded: "All good things must come to an end. If there is an opportunity in the future, I will come to Xuantian Dao Sect and sit down with Sect Master Shen to discuss the Dao again."

Furthermore, if any cultivators from the Eternal Immortal Court ascend to immortality in the future, we hope Sect Master Shen can inform us of this matter.

Finally, Gu Xing spoke again.

The Eternal Immortal Court is his foundation in the myriad universes. If anyone can continue to ascend, then he should try his best to win them over to the Great Qin Immortal Court.

Having been in the Upper Realm for quite some time now, Gu Xing can understand the meaning of ascending to immortality.

Any cultivator who can cultivate to the Ancient Immortal Realm in the lower realm and then ascend to the upper realm is of high aptitude. Even if they break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm in the future, they can at least reach the peak of the Ancient Immortal Realm, or even the level of a half-step Immortal Emperor.

Such a prodigy.

I will certainly try my best.

Gu Xing had no intention of competing with the other ascendants, but he was quite confident in his chances with the people of the Eternal Immortal Court.

Simultaneously.

He also understands.

The Ascension Altar of the Xuantian Dao Sect is an extremely important thing.

Although it is not easy for an ascendant to appear in the lower universe, according to Gu Xing's knowledge, the current universe has entered an unprecedented golden age.

There are more than just one or two cultivators who are truly qualified to ascend.

What's more.

Mastering the Ascension Altar is tantamount to mastering the ascension passage to that universe.

If someone else ascends to heaven later, they can then be used for their own purposes.

but--

Despite his envy, Gu Xing didn't have many other thoughts.

The Eternal Immortal Court is nominally the overlord of all the universes, but everyone knows that the one before them is the true ruler of all the universes.

Gu Xing could only contend with cultivators from the Eternal Immortal Court, but he had no interest in other cultivators.

at this time.

Shen Changqing flipped his hand, and a jade slip appeared.

"This is a cultivation technique that I obtained by chance in the past, called the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture. If one cultivates it to its peak, it can open up the Nine Directions Great Sun Universe, and its power is also quite remarkable."

"Fellow Daoist Gu, you have departed on this journey. I do not know when you will return. This cultivation technique is a token of my appreciation."

"Immortal Emperor's Technique!"

Gu Xing was deeply shaken. He looked at the jade slip in front of him and wanted to refuse, but the weight of the Immortal Emperor's inheritance made it difficult for him to actually speak.

Taking a deep breath, he accepted the jade slip with both hands and said in a deep voice, "I will never forget the kindness of Sect Master Shen in bestowing this teaching upon me today!"

Done.

He took a step back and bowed deeply to Shen Changqing.

Shen Changqing smiled faintly: "Although the inheritance of cultivation techniques is good, whether one can reach the final step still depends on one's own aptitude, perseverance, and opportunities."

I hope that when we meet again someday, you will have already reached the Immortal Emperor realm.

"I will certainly live up to your expectations!"

Gu Xing solemnly put away the jade slip, then turned and left.

He understood that there was a significant gap between him and Shen Changqing, and the reason they were able to have an equal dialogue was due to their previous relationship.

Without this, one wouldn't even be qualified to appear before the other party.

It was only through his travels over the years that Gu Xing truly understood what Shen Changqing's existence represented in the Divine Heaven Domain.

These top-tier experts are beyond the reach of ordinary cultivators.

Today, I am deeply grateful for the Dharma.

Gu Xing kept this firmly in mind.

He can hardly be of any help to Shen Changqing now; only by improving his own strength can he demonstrate his usefulness.

I won't say anything more.

At the very least, one must break through to the Immortal Emperor realm first.

Watching Gu Xing leave, Shen Changqing also withdrew his gaze.

For him, gifting the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture was a matter of course.

For other cultivators, the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor is a rare opportunity, and many forces would go to great lengths to avoid offending him.

But for Shen Changqing, the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor was not worth mentioning.

There were dozens, if not a hundred or two, of the Immortal Emperors who fell at his hands. Although most of their things perished with the destruction of the Immortal Emperor universe, some of them were still preserved.

So far.

The Immortal Emperor's inheritance that Shen Changqing possesses is far more than just one.

Among the many inheritances of immortal emperors, the Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture is not considered the most top-tier.

At least.

Compared to the Nine Luminaries World-Suppressing Scripture, it is still a level below.

Of course.

anyway.

The Supreme Nine Yang Immortal Scripture also points directly to the peak of the Immortal Emperor and is a legacy that opens up the nine directions of the universe, so its value is not low.

However, as his horizons broadened, Shen Changqing realized more and more that having more cultivation techniques was not necessarily better.

In particular, cultivation techniques at the Immortal Emperor level are somewhat useful to Immortal Emperors, but they are of little significance for the later path to Half-Saint.

Subsequently.

Shen Changqing continued to comprehend the great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

……

In the boundless starry sky, a figure vanished into the void, pursued relentlessly by numerous cultivators.

It is unknown how much time passed before this figure finally shook off the pursuit of cultivators from all sides and hid on a desolate ancient star.

"Finally, I'm rid of them!"

Gu Mingfeng exhaled a breath of turbid air, a look of relief on his face. Then he carefully took out a fairy fruit.

The celestial fruit exuded a profound Daoist aura, seemingly reflecting the birth, death, and evolution of the primordial universe. Its refreshing fragrance permeated the senses, causing even one's own primordial world to tremble slightly.

"The Primordial Dao Fruit!"

"I never imagined that such a heaven-defying object actually exists!"

Gu Mingfeng's eyes burned with desire, wishing he could swallow the immortal fruit right now, but he quickly restrained himself from the impulse.

With his current cultivation level, he is not qualified to consume the Primordial Dao Fruit. If he were to force himself to consume it, he would either be unable to withstand the power of the rare treasure and explode and die.

Or it would be a complete waste of the benefits of such rare and precious materials, with no spillover effects.

The only function of these Primordial Dao Fruits is to help cultivators directly open up a Celestial Emperor Universe, allowing a half-step Celestial Emperor to step into the Celestial Emperor Realm in one step.

Gu Mingfeng had only seen such heaven-defying immortal fruits in some ancient books before; this was the first time he had actually seen them in person.

Amidst the scramble for the Primordial Immortal Fruit, Gu Mingfeng managed to seize it by chance, and then fled at any cost, sacrificing many of his life-saving trump cards in the process.

But in Gu Mingfeng's view, all of this was worthwhile.

Having this Primordial Dao Fruit means that he is qualified to break through to the Immortal Emperor realm.

Next.

All you need to do is raise your cultivation level to the half-step Immortal Emperor level.

but.

Gu Mingfeng is currently at the Ancient Immortal Queen level, and he still has a long way to go before he can break through to the Half-Step Immortal Emperor level.

"My time is running out. If I continue to cultivate step by step, I may not be able to break through to the half-step Immortal Emperor realm by the time my lifespan is exhausted."

"Right now, only this Chaos Dao Palace offers me the possibility of breaking through to the next level—"

Gu Mingfeng's eyes were resolute, and he made a decision immediately.

originally.

For him, the best outcome of obtaining the Primordial Dao Fruit would be to quietly leave the Chaos Dao Palace now, find a place to cultivate in seclusion, and then break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

But a pity.

One's own lifespan is limited.

Gu Mingfeng could not possibly cultivate in a step-by-step manner.

Subsequently.

He then took out the Xuan Tian Dao Mirror, intending to contact the other two.

Unfortunately, within this Chaos Palace, the Supreme Dao Suppresses it, rendering the Xuan Tian Dao Mirror utterly ineffective.

Immediately, Gu Mingfeng put away the Chaos Dao Fruit and headed towards the depths of this starry sky.

along the way.

He was always cautious and deliberately avoided other powerful individuals, actively evading any fluctuations of even slightly stronger auras.

The purpose of doing this was to prevent other powerful individuals from fighting and thus affecting themselves.

Gu Mingfeng knew very well that among the many cultivators who entered the Chaos Dao Palace, his cultivation level was at the very bottom.

Below the level of Ancient Immortals, even cultivators at the Immortal King realm are not qualified to enter the Chaos Dao Palace.

Therefore.

Therefore, Gu Mingfeng dared not be careless.

Be careful.

That is the true way to survive in such a place of opportunity.

However, it must be said that the Chaos Dao Palace is indeed full of opportunities. In the boundless starry sky, all kinds of rare and precious materials are almost everywhere.

Many rare and precious natural treasures that are hard to find elsewhere are readily available here.

Even though Gu Mingfeng acted cautiously and missed many opportunities, he still obtained a lot of rare and precious materials, and even rare and precious materials like the Primordial Immortal Fruit, which could open up the Primordial World, were quite common.

After consuming several Primordial Immortal Fruits, Gu Mingfeng successfully reached the peak of the Ancient Immortal Realm.

His improved cultivation level gave him more confidence.

Years pass.

A thousand years have passed in the blink of an eye.

A thousand years later, on a desolate star, Gu Mingfeng opened his eyes, the immortal energy that had gathered around him dissipated, and a genuine smile appeared on his face.

"The last primordial world has finally been created!"

A thousand years.

He broke through from the Ancient Immortal Queen level to the Half-Step Immortal Emperor level.

Such a thing would have been unimaginable in the past.

It is precisely because there are so many opportunities in this Hunyuan Dao Palace that such an opportunity exists.

The only pity is.

For thousands of years.

Gu Mingfeng had no information about Zheng Shan and the others, so he gave up on the idea of ​​continuing to investigate.

After all, the Chaos Dao Palace is so vast that finding even one person is not easy.

Besides——

There are many powerful figures here, and the ancient immortals are walking on thin ice. It is not impossible that the other party has really perished.

This last possibility, though Gu Mingfeng was unwilling to think about it, was the most likely one.

He took a deep breath and took out the Primordial Dao Fruit.

"Next, we need to prepare for breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm. There are many powerful people in this Chaos Dao Palace, not to mention whether the Immortal Emperor Tribulation can be brought down."

Even if it could actually descend, it would inevitably attract the attention of many powerful figures.

In that case, even if one manages to successfully overcome the tribulation, they will likely still perish—”

Gu Mingfeng's eyes were subtle; undergoing tribulation here would be a dead end.

And that’s it.

He also had to admit that, given his own capabilities, facing the Immortal Emperor Tribulation was a near-certain death situation.

To successfully overcome the tribulation, one must be adequately prepared.
