133: Chapter 132 Lao Tzu Arrives, Dual Cultivation of Immortality and Taoism

"This era chose you. Only by becoming stronger can this old Daoist Cultivate in peace. Little friend, do you find this reason acceptable?"

Laozi sat on the ox's back, lightly stroking his silver-white goatee.

He looked every bit like a master who had attained the Dao.

Ye Xiu was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly: "Forgive me, this Junior was overthinking."

"Actually, the chances of you mastering this Daoist Magic are not high. This old Daoist only hopes that while little friend improves his cultivation, he can read through a hundred scriptures and forge a path that truly belongs to himself."

As Laozi spoke...

He began to evolve the Great Dao.

From Daoist Magic to rules, and from rules to the Great Dao.

Ye Xiu did not speak to disturb him. He quietly watched the evolution of the Great Dao. The Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws within his body, which had long been assimilated by the Dao of the Radiant Sun, actually showed movement again.

After a long time.

Laozi finished the evolution.

He asked: "Little friend, did you understand?"

Ye Xiu cupped his hands and gave a Junior's salute: "Thank you for the enlightenment, Senior. But wanting to practice Immortal Dao Dual Cultivation is likely not easy."

He sighed in his heart.

The number of Great Daos required to evolve Heaven and Earth was too many.

Even if it wasn't as demanding as evolving the Heavenly Dao.

Creating a hundred Great Daos was the most basic requirement.

And the prerequisite for creating a Great Dao was to reach the Heavenly Venerable Realm in each one. This difficulty was extremely exaggerated.

Throughout history, many Cultivators found it incredibly difficult and perilous just to create a single Great Dao within the Chaos.

If he wanted to achieve Immortal Dao Dual Cultivation.

He would first have to achieve immortality in a hundred Daos, then merge all those Daos to evolve Heaven and Earth.

Setting aside the extreme difficulty.

Could the Immortal Ascension Method and the Heaven and Earth Law really coexist?

How many prodigies had there been throughout history?

Even the Human Sovereign had studied the Heavenly Emperor Sutra, clearly wanting to pursue Immortal Dao Dual Cultivation as well.

But that ancient Sovereign, after endless ages, still hadn't truly stepped onto the path of Dual Cultivation.

This served as a testament that the Immortal and Dao paths likely could not coexist.

Laozi smiled lightly without speaking.

Ye Xiu shook his head helplessly: "Senior, the Human Sovereign also tried, but he did not succeed."

"He is he, and you are you. How can they be mentioned in the same breath?"

"But I don't feel that I would do better than the Human Sovereign."

"There is a type of rule in your body that is very special. Perhaps if taken to the extreme, it could evolve Heaven and Earth on its own."

"Evolve on its own?"

Ye Xiu frowned slightly. He knew he possessed the Martial Venerable Bloodline and had the prerequisite rule for achieving the Law-Breaking Path, which was Immunity to Ten Thousand Laws.

But could this thing really evolve Heaven and Earth on its own?

After pondering for a moment.

He spoke again: "Senior, even if I spend time evolving Heaven and Earth, the Immortal Ascension Method and the Heaven and Earth Law might be incompatible. This path must have been tried by predecessors before, but I've never heard of anyone succeeding."

"Because no one has succeeded, little friend will also not succeed?"

Laozi asked back.

Then he continued: "Little friend was able to reach this point in two hundred years relying on an Incomplete Manual. If you aren't a bit bolder, how can you suppress those monsters who have cultivated for endless ages?"

Ye Xiu looked at Laozi.

His brow furrowed deeply: "Is Senior serious?"

Laozi did not speak. The world behind him gradually revealed itself, and a force of Heaven and Earth was decomposing and being analyzed.

This process was very long.

Ye Xiu watched all this in silence. He knew that Laozi was serious.

This old Daoist, known as the Dao Ancestor in legends, was currently using the Great Dao he had cultivated his whole life to enlighten him.

As the force of Heaven and Earth was analyzed.

This part of the Void Realm was concealed.

The figures of the two were covered by a layer of haziness.

The ancient existences that were originally probing this place frowned one after another.

"What a clever old Daoist."

Xing Mu snorted coldly and stopped paying attention to the situation on Ye Xiu's side.

...

...

Three years later.

Only then did Laozi ride the green ox, breaking through the Main World again and leaving toward the endless Void Realm.

"Senior's righteousness is great."

Ye Xiu looked at the departing Laozi, a sense of respect involuntarily rising in his heart.

An expert who had almost stepped into the Supreme Realm had analyzed the Great Dao for him. Although it was only for three years, during these three years, his understanding of the Dao had deepened significantly.

Taking a step forward.

He returned directly to the Great Xia Royal Palace.

His little disciple Chu Meng was in the square, preaching to some guards.

Since his marriage to Ji Xingyue, she had been the one responsible for his disciple.

During the hundred years he was away, this little girl had already achieved the Saint Realm. Her cultivation speed was among the most Prodigy-like of her generation.

"General, you're back."

Ji Xingyue's voice sounded in his ear.

Ye Xiu entered the inner hall and, seeing Ji Xingyue reviewing official documents, said: "I plan to recultivate the Great Dao and advance to the Supreme Realm as an Immortal Dao practitioner."

Ji Xingyue's hand holding the brush paused slightly.

After a moment of silence, she said: "General, this path is almost completely blocked. Are you really prepared?"

"There's no other way. If I cannot enter the Supreme Realm through Dual Cultivation, I'm afraid I still won't be able to change anything."

Ye Xiu sighed slightly.

Status of the Red Dust Immortal, Supreme Position.

These two existences were the known limits of the world.

Even the Eastern Emperor, who held a Supreme Position, was beaten by the Red-Haired Monster until he could barely hold his ground.

Even if he broke into the Supreme Realm, what of it?

A fragmented Heavenly Emperor Sutra could not possibly make him equal to the strongest like the Human Sovereign, Martial Venerable, and Eastern Emperor.

But without that level of combat power.

He feared he wouldn't have much of a say in the upcoming great melee.

And.

To complete the Heavenly Emperor Sutra, his own combat power would absolutely have to reach the level of the Status of the Red Dust Immortal.

Otherwise, how could he go to the Boundary Sea to snatch it?

Back then, even the Human Sovereign was beaten to the point of near death while trying to snatch the Incomplete Manual of the Heavenly Emperor Sutra.

The remaining three fragments of the Heavenly Emperor Sutra were clearly in the hands of those at the same level as the Human Sovereign; otherwise, the Human Sovereign would have collected them all long ago.
