The end of Gaowu: Becoming stronger from not practicing

"Hisser?"

Zhang Lingfeng was stunned; he had never heard of this existence.

"He and Linley Baruch were good friends. He was affiliated with the Baruch family. Although he did not have the bloodline of a divine beast, he became a being that surpassed the true god with the help of Linley Baruch."

In the past, my dragon race was loyal to the Baruch family and served Hise.

Unfortunately, a great calamity occurred long ago.

This resulted in my dragon clan and the Baruch family losing contact.

But my dragon race has always worshipped the statues of Hise and Linley.

Zu Long explained.

Zhang Lingfeng saw that behind Hise was an even more magnificent statue.

It was Linley Baruch.

Zhang Lingfeng felt somewhat suffocated.

He had heard of Linley from the Baruch family back in the primary star system.

Basha, Bayan, Bahong, and other geniuses from the Baruch Starfield and the Baruch family all regard Linley Baruch as their spiritual idol.

In the primary star field, Zhang Lingfeng had heard many legends about Lin Lei.

Back then, Shen Rufeng left behind a law in the Blackwater Star Region that prevented all living beings from becoming gods, allowing the life forms in the Blackwater Star Region to provide the Shen family with a continuous source of fortune.

Linley Baruch also left behind a law for the Baruch family.

The lives of the Baruch family will not dissipate due to death or the loss of their souls. Regardless of whether they are in the Baruch Starfield or not, they are all subject to this law.

At that time, he broke Shen Rufeng's laws and also wanted to leave behind a law to protect life in the Blackwater Starfield, just like Linley Baruch, so that his loved ones could live forever.

It was simply impossible to do.

Later, when they entered the intermediate and advanced star regions, they heard the legend of Linley Baruch.

I never expected that I would still be able to see the other party's legendary deeds in the world above.

Even the dragons once pledged allegiance to him.

And they are proud of it.

It is important to know that dragons have always been proud and have never been enslaved by humans. Even though the Baruch family can no longer protect the dragons, they still worship the statues of Linley Baruch and his former follower Hise.

“I have been to the Divine Origin Continent. The Divine Soul Immortal Emperor said that the Baruch family created a star field there. The strong members of the Baruch family should be in their star field. Haven’t you looked for them?”

Zhang Lingfeng inquired.

"We've looked for them, but they don't want to get involved in the karma between the dragons and the Ancestral River. The current Baruch family, although they have Linley's bloodline, has always had a very unified goal: they just want to follow the relics left by Linley and successfully find him."

Some members of the Baruch family even believe that their inability to find Linley is because the dragons are blocking their path, as they don't want too many people to share Linley Baruch's destiny.

Zu Long explained.

It was through Zulong that Zhang Lingfeng learned that there were many different kinds of dragons.

There is a divine dragon.

Flesh-winged Pteranodon.

Ironclad Dragon.

Golden Holy Dragon.

Taikoo Fat Dragon.

Dark Tyrannosaurus.

The Divine Dragon of Light.

……

Many of the dragon clan's branches were forgotten even by the First Dragon.

The dragons that Zhang Lingfeng is seeing now are mainly divine beasts from the Eastern lineage.

Although he had contact with Linley Baruch.

However, the contact time was not long.

The Baruch family did not approve of them.

They even felt that it was the appearance of this lineage of divine dragons that cut off the possibility for their Baruch family descendants to find Linley.

"So, there really are methods for attaining true godhood in this world."

Zhang Lingfeng tried.

"of course."

Zu Long nodded.

Take out an old-fashioned book.

The book cover has dragon scale patterns, as if it were made of solidified dragon scales.

Zhang Lingfeng looked excited.

He couldn't understand the words on the cover, but as a level six peak Soul Master, he could feel the strong spiritual fluctuations on it. It seemed that as long as he opened the book, he could receive the cultivation method to become a true god from it.

But just as Zhang Lingfeng was about to open the book, Zu Long's hand covered it.

He could tell that Zhang Lingfeng was eager to see the contents of the document.

This is only natural; which Immortal Emperor wouldn't want to become a True God?

But every true god represents the power of the Heavenly Dao capable of overturning a world, or even creating a completely new Heavenly Dao order, causing countless Immortal Emperors to bow down and submit.

"I was abrupt."

Zhang Lingfeng said apologetically.

This is the dragon clan's most precious treasure.

It's comparable to Dragon Ball; how could I just watch it whenever I wanted?

"The cultivation method for attaining true godhood is not only found in our Dragon Balls, but also in the Baruch family and in the possession of Zuga, only the cultivation methods are different."

The Baruch family, possessing the bloodlines of the four divine beasts, attained true godhood through a unique cultivation method.

The Ancestral River is where the power of all water veins converges to attain the true form of enlightenment.

The cultivation method for my Dragon Clan to attain true godhood was created by our ancestors and later modified by Hise. It only requires powerful Dragon Essence to attain true godhood.

It is possible to overturn the laws of Heaven through the Dragon Essence, and even to destroy and rebuild, creating a completely new order of Heaven.

This cultivation method is not only suitable for our dragon race, but also for many powerful humans.

Zu Long said with a serious expression.

Zhang Lingfeng listened attentively, becoming more and more excited as he listened, his eyes shining.

He couldn't help but say, "Senior, if I can help your dragon clan repair the dragon pearl, could you let me see this cultivation method in the future?"

"of course."

Zu Long nodded.

Who wouldn't want to see the cultivation methods for attaining true godhood?

Even if one has their own method for attaining true godhood through cultivation.

They also wouldn't mind looking at other people's methods of enlightenment.

Moreover, Zhang Lingfeng comes from a primary star field, so he absolutely cannot possess his own path to enlightenment.

The reason why the Ancestral Dragon presented this cultivation method was to help you control Zhang Lingfeng, hoping that Zhang Lingfeng would do his best to help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl as soon as possible.

"Thank you, senior."

Zhang Lingfeng said excitedly.

Unable to resist asking again, "Senior, you possess boundless magical power and great supernatural abilities, capable of taking the dragon race back to the past. Why not take the Dragon Ball with you and find the powerful members of the Baruch family in the long river of time, so that they can help you repair the Dragon Ball?"

This has always been a problem for Zhang Lingfeng.

"You're thinking too simply. The beings who can help my dragon race repair the Dragon Balls are all god-level powerhouses. They have severed the ages and cut off the cycle of cause and effect. Even if we could go back to their past time and space, we would not be able to find them, let alone have any collision with them in the past time and space."

Unless their strength is comparable to theirs.

The true power of Heaven is disruptive, overturning not only the present, but also the future and the past.

Like Hise, Linley, and many powerful figures from the Baruch family, as well as many god-level powerhouses among the dragons, they have long since erased the traces they left in the past.

Even if future generations could travel through time, they would not be able to find them in the past.

Every god-level powerhouse possesses great supernatural abilities.

It can not only erase the traces of the past, but also create the past and plan ahead for the future.

Such advanced life forms are simply beyond our current comprehension.

Otherwise, how could the Dragon Clan have been suppressed by the Ancestral River and wasted so many years?

Zuhe said indignantly.

He appeared very angry.

This incident demonstrates both the immense power of god-level beings and the current incompetence of the dragon race.

"I'm sorry, I was too naive."

Zhang Lingfeng looked apologetic.

"It's not your fault. You've only recently become an Immortal Emperor, so it's normal that you don't know some things. But no matter what, you are at least a variable for our Dragon Clan. Right now, we can't find another being who can help our Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl except for you."

I hope you'll consider Ao Jin and Ao Tian's feelings.

They will do everything in their power to help our dragon race protect the waterways.

Zu Long said with a solemn and expectant expression.

"must!"

Zhang Lingfeng clasped his hands in a fist salute and nodded emphatically.

Zu Long stared into Zhang Lingfeng's eyes for a long time.

He then placed the ancient book woven from dragon scales in Zhang Lingfeng's hands, instructing him, "You can look at it, but don't cultivate haphazardly. To attain true godhood, it's not enough to simply possess a cultivation method; you also need powerful true essence."

Forcing oneself to cultivate will not only fail to lead to enlightenment, but will also result in a backlash from the Heavenly Dao, and may even lead to the destruction of one's soul.

I hope that giving you this cultivation method now will not harm you.

Emperor Zulong placed his hopes on Zhang Lingfeng.

He didn't want Zhang Lingfeng to be unable to wholeheartedly help the Dragon Clan repair the Dragon Pearl because of this cultivation method. In any case, even if Zhang Lingfeng read this cultivation method, he wouldn't be able to easily attain enlightenment and become a true god.

But giving it to Zhang Lingfeng to examine will at least show him the Dragon Clan's sincerity.

They did their best to help the dragons repair the dragon ball.

"This……"

Zhang Lingfeng was caught off guard.

"I will do my best to help you repair the Dragon Balls as soon as possible."

Zhang Lingfeng said in a trembling voice.

Then, in front of the Ancestral Dragon, he revealed the cultivation method for attaining the true godhood.

True God.

He is a god-level powerhouse.

However, it is still a long way from becoming a lower-level god.

Through this cultivation method, Zhang Lingfeng finally gained an understanding.

The so-called true God.

In reality, he is a Saint-level powerhouse.

It is divided into several levels.

"Buzz!"

But before Zhang Lingfeng could learn more...

The spiritual fluctuations from the cultivation method quickly surged towards Zhang Lingfeng, forming an imprint in his mind.

It's like being empowered by one's own will.

Even Zhang Lingfeng couldn't refuse.

This was a terrifying thought.

The cultivation method was forcibly implanted into Zhang Lingfeng's mind.

Zu Long had been standing to the side, right beneath the statue of Hise. Upon seeing this scene, his mouth dropped open, and he couldn't help but look at the statue of Hise.

It was as if Hise was forcibly drawing Zhang Lingfeng's attention to cultivation methods.

This cultivation method, suitable for both dragons and powerful humans, has been studied countless times by the Ancestral Dragon. Each time he reads it, he feels a strong spiritual fluctuation.

It's as if it can leave a mark on the body.

But it will disappear completely after a while.

so repeatedly.

It has been going back and forth for tens of thousands of years.

Although Zulong could remember this cultivation method, he could not understand it.

Just now, he clearly felt that the information Zhang Lingfeng received was much stronger than his own, as if Hise was transmitting his power to him.

Zhang Lingfeng closed the book.

He shook his head vigorously.

A series of messages appeared in his soul.

Then it slowly faded away.

It gradually disappeared without a trace.

It's like it never happened.

"What...what's going on?"

"I felt a message imprinted into my soul, and then suddenly it disappeared without a trace."

Zhang Lingfeng asked in confusion.

Zu Long breathed a sigh of relief.

He discovered that Zhang Lingfeng was not lying.

He said, "The cultivation method for proving oneself as a true god can create the power of the Heavenly Dao, and it can also overturn the existing laws of the Heavenly Dao. When cultivating and absorbing it, it will be blocked by the current power of the Heavenly Dao."

The fact that information is absorbed and then quickly disappears is the work of the laws of nature.

This could happen to me too.

"I see."

Zhang Lingfeng suddenly realized.

Just now, I felt a force forcibly erasing a mark from his soul.

Although he could resist, he could only slow down the rate at which the mark was being removed, but could not stop it from disappearing.

It felt like a giant hand was forcibly formatting his brain, leaving Zhang Lingfeng with no choice but to watch helplessly.

"When your true essence is strong enough to withstand the laws of heaven, you may be able to record this cultivation method and cultivate according to it."

Zu Long reminded him.

"Are you able to do it now?"

Zhang Lingfeng asked.

"It can't be done."

Zu Long shook his head.

"By cultivating this method, one can at least hope to attain the power of nearly two hundred thousand Immortal Emperor True Essence, just like you humans. The Dragon Essence of my Dragon Clan is mainly derived from bloodlines and water veins."

I'm old.

We cannot allow all the water veins to dry up in order to prove ourselves as true gods, thus preventing the dragon race from continuing to reproduce.

Even if I absorb all the power of the water veins, it will still be difficult for me to attain the true godhood.

This is like my destiny.

It's as if they've been bound by a law, forever unable to attain true godhood.

"The First Emperor sighed."

He also longed to become a true god, to kill Zuhe with his own hands, and to bring the dragon race back to the present, or even back to the Baruch family.

Find Linley and Hise.

"The future is uncertain; perhaps you and I will both attain true godhood in the future."

Zhang Lingfeng encouraged him.

"Hehehe, that would be best."

"The First Emperor laughed."

Zhang Lingfeng closed the cultivation manual.

This power of the Heavenly Dao was too terrifying, leaving him with lingering fear.

However, Zu Long said that if a human powerhouse's Immortal Emperor True Essence reaches 200,000, they can contend with the Heavenly Dao, and perhaps their cultivation mark will not be erased by the Heavenly Dao.

Could it be that once my Immortal Emperor True Essence reaches 200,000, I can directly confront the Ancestral River?

He couldn't help but glance at the information on the panel.

Name: Zhang Lingfeng
Beginner True God Cultivation Method: (/100)

Lying flat value: 5756

Immortal Emperor's True Essence: 164238.3
Soul element: 10778
Realm: Peak Level 6 Soul Master, Peak Immortal Emperor

This look.

Zhang Lingfeng was stunned.

Then his eyes lit up again.

The laws of Heaven could erase the mark in his soul, preventing him from obtaining the True God cultivation method, but the panel information successfully recorded this cultivation method.

Unbeknownst to him, he had unknowingly acquired the Elementary True God Cultivation Method.

Perhaps when one's immortal essence reaches around 20, one can rely on the Elementary True God Cultivation Method to prove one's Dao and become a True God.

Zhang Lingfeng was startled by his own thought.

"What happened to you?"

"Zu Long asked."

They thought Zhang Lingfeng had lost his mind because he realized it was difficult to become a true god.

"I'm returning the cultivation method to you; I don't need it anymore."

Zhang Lingfeng returned the Dharma to Zulong and turned to leave.

"Being able to recognize reality and let go of greed means you truly have the potential to become a seventh-level Soul Master."

Zu Long encouraged him.

He also developed a greater appreciation for Zhang Lingfeng. He was afraid that Zhang Lingfeng would lose sight of the bigger picture and focus only on becoming a true god, forgetting that the most likely thing he could accomplish was to first become a seventh-level Soul Master.

"Thank you for your kind words. I will help your dragon race repair the Dragon Ball. If you have the chance, please thank Hise and Linley Baruk for me."

Zhang Lingfeng said without turning his head.

Zu Long frowned and couldn't help but look back at the statues of Hise and Linley Baruch, not understanding what Zhang Lingfeng meant.
