595: Chapter 595 Above the Great Emperor, There is the Immortal!

Wang Zhan stood above the Void Realm, the Imperial Dao Laws surging around him slowly receding and returning to tranquility.

Although he didn't intentionally release his pressure, everything between heaven and earth bowed before him.

He clearly felt the power within his body that encompassed all things, combining hardness and softness, and his Dao Heart became increasingly transparent and clear.

Breaking through a desperate situation, fusing the Sacred and Tyrant, and carrying ten thousand Daos, he had walked a Great Dao that belonged solely to him and could not be replicated by anyone.

At this time, Wang Zhan was no longer a pure Heavenly Azure Sacred Body, but a Fusion of the Tyrant Body Origin, carrying the essence of ten thousand Daos.

He was the unique Heavenly Azure Dao Body tempered by Chaos Tribulation Lightning.

The ecstasy of becoming an Emperor only lingered in his heart for a moment before quietly receding like a tide.

Thinking of the moment he became an Emperor just now, a strong perception inexplicably arose deep in his heart.

The Great Emperor Realm did not seem to be the end of this world; above this supreme Realm, there were even more distant and supreme Great Daos waiting to be explored.

Wang Zhan took a deep breath, slowly closed his eyes, released all his Divine Soul power, and discarded all distracting thoughts.

He carefully explored every trace of aura within his body and between heaven and earth, trying to capture any clues of "above the Great Emperor."

Soon, a few extremely weak, ethereal, and refined auras quietly entered his Divine Soul.

That aura was slender and misty, yet carried a gentle pressure far exceeding the Imperial Dao, completely different from the spiritual power he knew.

This aura was too faint, but he could clearly perceive that within it lay the answers he sought and the possibility of reaching a higher Great Dao.

"Could this be Immortal Qi?"

He murmured to himself, his gaze condensing on a certain spot in the Void Realm, as if tracing the source of that wisp of aura.

This aura was too refined and vanished into the rules of heaven and earth in an instant.

He was certain that within this aura lay the answers he sought and the key to a higher Great Dao.

Yet he still had no clue; all the ancient texts in the Xuanhuang Great World had never mentioned it at all.

The Cangxuan Sacred Body lineage had been passed down for a million years, and its limit was the Great Emperor.

Even the oldest hidden Holy Lands in the Xuanhuang World only had vague legends of "Immortals" but had never seen one.

It was as if this world simply had no method to reach a higher Great Dao.

"Above the Great Emperor... what Realm is it exactly? And how should one take that step?"

He murmured to himself, a hint of confusion knitting his brows, and the light in his eyes dimmed a bit.

Even though he had become the supreme Great Emperor of the Xuanhuang World, and even though his Sacred Tyrant Dao Body was in a state of Perfection, facing that unknown higher Great Dao...

He was still like an ignorant child or a frog in a well, with no way to start and no solution.

He saw the higher mountain peak but could not find a single path up the mountain.

Just then, a flat but supremely pressurized voice crossed hundreds of millions of miles of time and space, echoing directly in his Sea of Consciousness, clear and unquestionable.

"Above the Great Emperor is Immortal."

Wang Zhan suddenly looked up, a storm brewing in his eyes, and he stood up abruptly: "Who is it!"

Emperor Might erupted, sweeping through the entire Heavenly Azure Sacred Realm, but no figure could be found.

That voice was ethereal and unpredictable, yet it carried a pressure that made him tremble slightly.

It wasn't the heaviness of a Great Emperor, but a high-level status that stood above all Daos, far beyond what any expert in the Xuanhuang World could reach.

Even though he was already a Great Emperor, under this pressure, his Dao Body couldn't help but tighten slightly, giving rise to a reverence born of instinct.

"Heavenly Azure Dao Body, fusing the Sacred and Tyrant without straying from its Dao; not bad."

The voice sounded again, still flat and emotionless, showing no joy or anger, yet hiding a trace of imperceptible appreciation.

Wang Zhan instantly restrained his Emperor Might, the storm in his eyes gradually calming, replaced by extreme clarity and reverence.

He knew that the existence capable of producing this voice must be one that stood above the Great Emperor and had touched the path to immortality.

He suppressed the turmoil in his heart and no longer rashly searched for a figure. Instead, he bowed slightly, his tone respectful but not subservient, and said in a deep voice:

"Senior, I am the Junior Wang Zhan. I wish to hear the true meaning of the path to immortality."

As soon as he finished speaking, a stream of Divine Sense as refined as crystal slowly surged from the depths of his Sea of Consciousness.

This Divine Sense was gentle and without edge, but it carried vast and boundless information, sinking accurately into the core of his Divine Soul.

Wang Zhan did not resist at all. He immediately closed his eyes slowly, the Emperor Seal on his forehead glowing slightly like a furnace, steadily receiving this torrent of information.

In an instant, countless unheard-of Dao Rhymes, Realms, and outlines of methods unfolded in his Sea of Consciousness.

"True Immortal: drawing Immortal Qi to forge an Immortal Foundation, shedding the mortal coil to attain the Dao Fruit; Earth Immortal: governing the immortal power of a region's ley lines, condensing an Immortal Mansion to establish a Dao Root; Heavenly Immortal..."

From the most basic True Immortal to the high-and-mighty Heavenly Immortal, and then to the more distant Immortal Lord and Immortal King.

The core essentials and status differences of each Realm were clearly imprinted in his Divine Soul.

So the immortal Realms above the Great Emperor actually had such complex and vast levels. It turned out that the wisp of aura he had perceived earlier was just the shallowest lingering charm of the path to immortality.

Far away on Zizhu Peak, hundreds of millions of miles away, Gu Changge stood by the cliff with his hands behind his back. His gaze pierced through layers of world barriers and landed on the figure intertwined with blue and black in the Heavenly Azure Sacred Realm.

His fingertips moved slightly as he withdrew the Divine Sense that had sent the message. The corners of his mouth curled into an arc, and he thought to himself:

This child's Heart-Nature is resilient, his Dao Heart pure yet not lacking edge.

It would be a pity if he were trapped by the perceptions of this world, not knowing what the path to immortality was, and stopping halfway.

Moreover, the Xuanhuang Great World has already recovered and is nurturing Immortal Qi. It is time to pave the way for the immortal Realms.

Thinking of this, Gu Changge no longer thought more. His gaze remained indifferent, quietly waiting for the response from the other end of the Sea of Consciousness.

In the Heavenly Azure Sacred Realm, above the Void Realm.

Wang Zhan slowly opened his eyes, blue and black colors swirling in them, with a condensed light burning deep within. His confusion had vanished, replaced only by an extreme thirst for the Great Dao.

He bowed to the Void Realm again, performing the salute of a Junior, and his voice was steady and solemn:

"Thank you, Senior, for passing down the true meaning of the path to immortality. I, Wang Zhan, will never forget this."

At this time, because Wang Zhan had become an Emperor, the cheers and congratulations outside were already sweeping through heaven and earth like a tide. The entire Xuanhuang World was immersed in the carnival of the birth of a new Great Emperor.

But Wang Zhan turned a deaf ear to this, as if isolating himself from all the noise of the outside world.

He bowed deeply to the Void Realm, then turned around and sat cross-legged on the spot amidst the gazes of worship from across the sky.

Blue and black light slowly spread from around him, forming an independent barrier that isolated all the noise and spiritual energy interference from the outside.

He formed hand seals, his mind instantly sinking into his body, and began to fully refine the remaining Chaos Tribulation Power, fuse the Tyrant Body Origin, and stabilize the Great Emperor Realm he had just broken through to.

"True Immortal, Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal..."

He murmured softly, and the figures of Battle Asura, Azure Rakshasa, and others suddenly appeared in his mind.

He wondered how they were doing now and if they had come into contact with the immortal Realms.

Wang Zhan shook his head and opened his eyes, his Dao Heart clearer than ever before: "Immortal Realm, wait for me..."
