Chapter 231: Fulfilling the Agreement in Advance
Liu Shen asked with some surprise, "Fellow Daoist, why are you looking for him?"
"I had an agreement with him back then," Fang Ming explained, then added, "I'm a bit curious about his secret method of dividing himself into six. How do his split bodies remain independent without developing disloyal thoughts?"
"It's foreseeable that the Strange Clan will become incredibly active next, and terrifyingly boundless battles are bound to erupt. At that time, they might resort to unconventional means to become stronger," Fang Ming said honestly.
"Unconventional means..." Liu Shen raised her delicate brows but didn't ask what those means were.
With a 'rumble,' the void roared and trembled incessantly.
She stretched out a large hand, reaching into the endless void. Immortal light surged, and she unleashed the ultimate great divine ability belonging to Di Guang Immortal King. A small tree entwined with immortal light was retrieved by her from the boundless void.
It was a small tree, about a foot tall, shrouded in white immortal mist. Its leaves shone with crystalline light within the mist, like glowing stars. It was precisely the spiritual root from the Eight Regions of the Lower Realm.
The immortal light swayed, and the foot-tall immortal tree landed on the ground. As if sensing a familiar aura, a large amount of immortal mist surged out, transforming into a blurry phantom that appeared before Liu Shen and Fang Ming.
"Six Extremes greets the two Fellow Daoists," the blurry figure spoke, then looked at Fang Ming with surprise, "Fellow Daoist, how many years have passed? Fellow Daoist has already grown to this extent!"
"That's not important. What's important is that we can now fulfill our agreement from back then. Fellow Daoist can freely observe my Great Dao," Fang Ming said calmly.
At this point, even if he was Di Guang Immortal King, Fang Ming had nothing to fear.
Once someone entered his All Heavens World, they would be subject to the restrictions of the Original Gate.
The figure nodded, expressing thanks.
Then he turned his head to look in the direction of the All Heavens World, his eyes, hazy with immortal light, showing surprise as he exclaimed, "Fellow Daoist's system is indeed astonishingly profound!"
"This is a split body secret method I created to break through the Immortal King realm and become an Emperor. It can split off five split bodies from the main body that are almost identical. The purpose is to inscribe the myriad Great Daos of the All Heavens. In the future, the myriad Daos will converge, merge into one, and depict the truly supreme and unique Great Dao. Hence, it is named 'Six Extremes Unite as One True Method.'"
At this moment, the blurry figure pointed a finger, and a hazy Dao light containing infinite Dao principles appeared before Fang Ming.
He then said, "It can be said that this method contains the Dao fruit of my entire life's cultivation and carries my hope of breaking through the Immortal King realm to become an Emperor."
"Then I shall accept without reservation," Fang Ming's phantom nodded. With a wave of his sleeve, he accepted the Six Extremes Unite as One True Method, but he was not in a hurry to browse it. Instead, he said, "Six Extremes Fellow Daoist, to be frank, we already know the method to break through the shackles of the Immortal King realm. Does Fellow Daoist need to browse and refer to it?"
Instantly, Six Extremes' heart was greatly shaken. Without any hesitation, he immediately said, "I couldn't wish for anything more!"
"Fellow Daoist, let's make it clear beforehand. Some things have happened recently. If you comprehend this method, it will be equivalent to joining the same battlefront as us. In the future, our enemies will surely not spare Fellow Daoist," Fang Ming warned very solemnly.
Then, he recounted what had just happened to him.
"Haha..." Six Extremes laughed heartily, very unrestrainedly, "What kind of person do you take me for, Fellow Daoist? The beings of the Strange Clan are public enemies of the All Heavens, and everyone has the right to kill them. Facing them is bound to happen sooner or later. This Venerable One will definitely not retreat half a step in the future!"
"In that case, Fellow Daoist can take it," Fang Ming also smiled. A ball of light flew out and landed in front of Six Extremes' blurry figure.
Six Extremes reached out and touched it. The information contained within the hazy light surfaced in his mind. As he carefully browsed the information, his mind was constantly shaken.
After a while, he said with a sense of loss, "In the end, I still didn't completely walk on the correct path!"
People like him, the Butcher, the selling fake medicine Funeral Emperor, the Funeral Master, and others had not completely walked on the correct path, which was why they had not been able to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm for hundreds of millions of years.
They were partly right, but not completely correct, which was why they had Quasi-Immortal Emperor light on them but were still unable to cross that threshold.
"It's not too late to correct it now. Fellow Daoist has accumulated hundreds of millions of years of foundation. After correcting it, you might not be unable to soar into the sky!" Fang Ming said solemnly.
"That's right. Since there is already a method, I should also prepare and then make the final leap," Six Extremes nodded, making a decision in his heart.
A strange fluctuation spread from his body, entering the endless void. Clearly, he was notifying his other five split bodies.
"Six Extremes Fellow Daoist's decision is correct," Fang Ming smiled and said, "Within my All Heavens World, the flow of Time is vastly different from the outside world. Two months inside is only one day outside, which is of great benefit for breaking through the barrier at this time."
"Fellow Daoist's system actually has such an ability," Six Extremes showed a strange expression, then cupped his hands and said, "Then I will accept Fellow Daoist's kindness."
As his voice fell, five brilliant immortal lights surged from the void, enveloping five Immortal Medicines shrouded in immortal mist.
The Immortal Medicines were about a foot tall, largely similar and nearly identical to the previous Immortal Medicine.
As soon as the five Immortal Medicines landed, immortal light surged, and countless Great Dao principles surged and churned, spreading out.
However, all anomalies were quelled in an instant by Liu Shen.
Amidst the surging immortal light, a figure walked out from each of the six Immortal Medicines. They took a step and instantly merged together.
With the six bodies united as one, terrifying immortal light appeared outside his body. The Great Dao symbols were brilliant, dreamlike and illusory, densely packed, emanating an aura of being indestructible through all calamities.
The Six Extremes Unite as One True Method that he created did indeed advance his cultivation, but relying solely on this great method could not break through the shackles of the current system, nor could it raise the ceiling of the system. It still required someone to truly expand the current system and successfully raise the upper limit.
If the upper limit could not be raised, relying on the great method was useless.
"Perhaps the two Fellow Daoists can discuss the path ahead. Perhaps it can greatly reduce the time needed to break through the barrier," Fang Ming said at this point. He said, "As far as I know, in most cases, the founder of a system is not just one person. It can be co-created by multiple people. There can be multiple Dao Ancestors in this position."
There is only one Immortal Emperor at the end of the road, but there can be many Dao Ancestors who expand the road.
As for how to achieve the Immortal Emperor realm in the future, that would require changing one's own Dao and innovating again.
Many times, sparks of inspiration and opportunities for breakthroughs come from exchanging ideas with powerful individuals.
"I am willing to discuss it with Fellow Daoist," Six Extremes cupped his hands, then made a gesture of invitation.
"Extremely willing," Liu Shen nodded.
Just as the two were about to enter the All Heavens World to discuss the Dao, a nine-colored immortal light suddenly surged from the depths of the Other Realm, illuminating the endless starry sky.
Immortal Kings roared in anger, letting out roars of disbelief.
Five-colored true blood surged into the sky, staining the heavens a vibrant hue, and vast life force was dissipating.
At this moment, in the deepest part of the Other Realm, the Black Emperor, wearing an imperial crown, revealed a chilling smile.
In the depths of the universe, the White Bone Imperial Staff hung in the air, releasing nine-colored light. Wherever it passed, countless living beings perished, transforming into streaks of bloody light that surged out and entered a vast altar.
The altar glowed, emitting strange fluctuations. Then the void cracked open with dark and deep fissures. One could vaguely see palaces within them emitting faint light, forming a path leading to an unknown place.
Under normal circumstances, crossing the Boundary Sea would indeed take hundreds of thousands of years, but by using the Ancient Receiving Hall, this process could be greatly shortened.
Looking at the ancient hall within the great void fissure, the Black Emperor smiled coldly. With a wave of his large hand, he retrieved the White Bone Imperial Staff. Then he took a step, entering the fissure, stepping onto the path formed by the faint light emitted by the Ancient Receiving Hall, and thus disappeared.
At the same time, Fang Ming's eyebrows twitched. He discovered that the speed at which his All Heavens World was eroding the Other Realm had accelerated again. In an instant, he understood something and said with some surprise:
"The speed at which I'm eroding the Other Realm has increased. Has that so-called Black Emperor already left the Other Realm with the Quasi-Immortal Emperor weapon?"
Hearing this, threads of karma appeared in Liu Shen's eyes. She said, "It can be confirmed that the so-called Black Emperor is no longer in the Other Realm, and I cannot trace his whereabouts."
Then her eyes shifted, looking into the depths of the Other Realm, and she said with surprise, "Ten Immortal Kings have perished, their five-colored true blood staining their cultivation grounds a five-colored glaze. A large number of races have been annihilated!"
"He must have crossed the Boundary Sea and left," Fang Ming guessed, then said, "Never mind him, let's do our own thing."
With such a major event happening here, he would definitely notify the Dark Quasi-Immortal Emperor on the other side of the Boundary Sea.
After Liu Shen and the other entered the All Heavens World to cultivate, Fang Ming then began to comprehend the scripture he obtained from the 'selling fake medicine' Six Extremes Immortal King—the Six Extremes Unite as One True Method.
