Chapter 89: Northern Plains Chaos
Time flows, years pass, everything in the world changes, and the world has changed several times.
Ever since Chaos Emperor failed in his attempt to become an immortal and his body lay dormant in an ancient bronze coffin, Taihuang broke through the suppression of the imperial way and proved his way with force. Since then, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths have regained peace. All creatures have adapted to the situation of the coexistence of many emperors and accepted the fact that this suppression of the great way has never stopped.
From Emperor Xuan Ye to the current Emperor Taihuang, over a period of more than 50,000 years, great emperors have emerged one after another. However, this did not affect the birth of various geniuses in later generations, and the universe also ushered in prosperity several times.
And in this life, he happened to meet a unique emperor, named Luangu.
Luangu originated from Beiyuan, one of the five regions of the Big Dipper Emperor Star.
Compared with the four regions of East Wilderness, Nanling, West Desert and Zhongzhou where extremely powerful forces are in charge, this place pales in comparison. In fact, there has never been a human emperor from here.
But from such a remote place, there came out a young man with great luck. His talent was not necessarily better than that of other people of the same generation, but he always got great opportunities and good fortunes. His cultivation improved by leaps and bounds, and he always stood at the top of the pyramid.
This era, in the original historical trajectory, was also a glorious and prosperous era, it could be said that all the stars gathered together. Looking at the entire universe, even Luangu, the leader of the younger generation of Beidou, was just an ordinary person, and was nothing in front of the real top geniuses.
But fortunately, he possessed a strong heart of Taoism that would fight again and again despite repeated failures and was indomitable. He was not like some geniuses who clearly had the potential to be an emperor, but after suffering a great defeat, their hearts of Taoism were shattered, and their path to immortality was cut short, becoming like everyone else.
Coupled with his absurdly strange luck, every time he suffered a great defeat, he would receive an extremely powerful inheritance, which even included imperial scriptures and imperial arts, so that his cultivation and combat power would undergo earth-shaking changes.
There were many geniuses and heroes who had defeated Luangu before, but they were surpassed by him one by one, until his back could no longer be seen, and they completely became stepping stones and background boards on the road to Luangu's emperor.
If it were placed in other novels, Luangu's various encounters and experiences would definitely make him a destined protagonist, who would counterattack again and again, and eventually kill all enemies and rule the world.
Of course, how could he not meet a master at the level of a "hermit master" during this process?
One day, Luangu was defeated by the contemporary Saint Son of Yaoguang Holy Land in the East Wilderness. He used the secret art of the void to escape, but accidentally fell into the depths of the fire domain and was almost burned to nothingness by the nine-colored divine flames.
At the critical moment, the Void Emperor, who was also in the depths of the Fire Domain and was using the power of Immortal Fire to refine the Void Mirror, sensed the breath of the Void Emperor Technique. He took action directly, using his great magic power to protect Luan Gu, isolating all the divine flames and the scorching temperature outside, and injecting a stream of life essence into Luan Gu's body.
"Thank you, senior, for coming to the rescue."
Luangu's injuries recovered as before. After he woke up slowly, the first thing that caught his eye was an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. He exuded an indescribable aura that made him feel a little close to him.
"Where did you learn the secret art of the Void? You haven't practiced it well enough and there are several problems." The Void Emperor said calmly, and he did not have any murderous intent because of the leakage of the Void Sutra.
“No one taught me.” Luangu paused for a moment, then continued, “I once had an epiphany at the Jishui River, at the place where the Void Emperor attained enlightenment. I was lucky enough to have heard some of the Void Scriptures and learned a few moves of the Emperor’s Art.”
With the realm of the Void Emperor, he could naturally sense that Luangu was not lying. He really relied entirely on his own extraordinary understanding to comprehend the Emperor Scripture and Emperor Technique on his own without the guidance of the Void Scripture. This kind of talent was simply amazing and unprecedented, even compared with some emperor-level cultivators, it was not inferior at all!
In fact, this is indeed the case. You know, Luan Gu is one of the few people who can transcend the ways and laws of the ruthless emperor and walk his own path. His understanding and talent are evident.
Afterwards, Emperor Void also felt a bit of a test in his mind, and immediately recited a passage from the Void Sutra, asking Luangu to analyze the meaning of the sutra.
Seeing this, Luangu knew very well that he had met an unimaginable great master and would naturally not miss this opportunity. Combining his understanding of the Void Scripture, he thought carefully for a moment and then slowly answered.
His answer was not particularly profound, nor was it more thorough than the Ji family's children's understanding, but he had broken away from the invisible shackles left by the founder, the Void Emperor, and had his own unique insights.
Although this kind of understanding is still a little shallow, it has far exceeded the expectations of Emperor Void.
"Are you willing to take me as your master?" The Void Emperor wanted to take in a disciple, believing that Luangu had the potential to become an emperor.
"Master, please accept my disciple's greetings!" Upon hearing this, Luangu did not hesitate at all. He immediately performed the ceremony of paying homage to the Void Emperor with the utmost respect.
hum!
The Void Emperor smiled and snapped his fingers. Suddenly, a stream of light sank directly into the sea of consciousness between Luangu's eyebrows and turned into a magnificent scripture. Hundreds of imperial characters were written in a long and flowing manner, hanging in his mind like bright stars, filled with the majestic rhyme of the Void.
It was the complete Void Sutra, which not only contained the cultivation methods of the five secret realms, but also forbidden imperial techniques!
"You are the Void Emperor?!" Luangu said in horror, looking at the Void Emperor in shock.
Even in the Ji family, there were not many people who could practice such a complete set of imperial scriptures and imperial arts, let alone spread them out so casually. Apart from the Ji family's ancestor, the Void Emperor, Luangu could not think of anyone else.
Who could have thought that after he fell into the fire realm, he not only did not die, but was unexpectedly rescued by a great emperor and then became the emperor's direct disciple?
"Meditation!"
The voice of Emperor Void sounded in Luan Gu's mind like a huge bell, instantly making him abandon all distracting thoughts. His mind quickly calmed down, and before long he fell into a special state of enlightenment, where he achieved unity between man and nature, and forgot about himself and the world. He was completely immersed in the Void Sutra.
At the same time, the Void Emperor also opened his mouth and recited the Void Sutra. In an instant, lotuses grew in the void, and a vast rhyme of the void spread out, accompanied by extremely mysterious principles of the great sutra, submerging Luan Gu entirely. Moreover, many void symbols were suspended, flying around him, and then imprinted on every inch of his flesh and blood.
It was unknown how much time had passed before Luangu came out of that state and woke up slowly. The moment his eyes opened, an extremely bright divine light burst out, which was breathtaking.
