We agreed to go to Taishan Sect and you will pull the coffin for me.

Chapter 344 Seed of the Sixth Secret Realm
Lu Heng's gaze fell on this pile of 'scrap'. Although it was called scrap, it was actually incredibly valuable, consisting of fragments of treasures and remnants of spiritual roots.

The former contains remnants of innate treasures nurtured by the World Tree, such as the Gate of Myriad Wonders, the Five Primordial Elements, and the Mysterious Female Pearl, which bear the imprint of the Great Dao Laws. If one carefully comprehends them, one will gain much, and may even be able to integrate them into a unique artifact to enhance its foundation.

Furthermore, the innate treasures nurtured by Blue Star, such as the Nine Cauldrons Heavenly Mandate Seal, are now reduced to fragments of the Great Dao Laws, which can be reassembled into one's own artifact.

The latter, collected by Lu Heng, consisted of several remaining World Tree fruits, each the size of a fist, and all different in appearance. Some were boundless chaos, radiating brilliant immortal light; others were ever-changing, embodying the three thousand Great Daos; still others contained inner worlds, magnificent and vast.

After a moment of contemplation, the dim illustration of all things within his body finally allowed him to identify the names and functions of these several immortal fruits.

Besides nurturing treasures, the World Tree can also bear fruit, which is even more extraordinary than the fruit of the Divine Tree of Mount Ling and the Immortal Elixir.

There are three types in total: the Chaos Fruit, the Primordial Fruit, and the Mysterious Yellow Fruit, each with different functions.

After consuming the Chaos Fruit, one can transform into a primordial chaotic god-demon physique, equivalent to a child of the World Tree. The primordial beings of countless worlds can draw upon its assistance. The Primordial Fruit is the fruit of the Great Dao. After consuming it, one merges with the World Tree and instantly becomes a Celestial King. Although one exists dependent on the World Tree, as long as the World Tree is indestructible and the Celestial King is immortal, it is still quite good.

Finally, there is the Xuanhuang Fruit, which contains the essence of heaven and earth. Once fully mature, it can be picked by powerful beings and placed in the Chaos Sea to evolve a universe. It allows for the free setting of elements such as the Heavenly Dao, all things, and the path of evolution. It is the best treasure for the Dao of Evolution and can also serve as a base for a power.

In addition, fragments and remnants of the sacred tree of Mount Ling and the heart of the World Tree are also of great value and have different uses.

Seeing this, Lu Heng was full of praise. Even though they each had their limitations, they were all rare treasures that could be found in all the heavens and myriad worlds. They were at least a level above immortal medicines. In terms of the universe of Shrouding the Heavens, perhaps only the main ingredient of the Three Lives Medicine could compare.

Unfortunately, these fruits were shriveled and unripe, and consuming them individually would be of no use to him. Perhaps they could be used to refine an evolution fluid, an eleventh-tier evolution fluid?!
Lu Heng shook his head. The tenth level was already the ultimate sublimation. The eleventh level might require starting from scratch, and it might not even be effective at the Immortal King realm.

He accepted these items, his thoughts merging with the small altar, gazing at the ruins of the universe and the remains of a towering, withered tree, and couldn't help but sigh.

Fortunately, even after the World Tree withered, a glimmer of life remained. The immortal elixir transformed from the Immortal King could still be revived after it turned to stone, not to mention something of this essential nature.

Even in an era of spiritual desolation, there is always a chance for return over time.

Then he sensed that within the Eternal Celestial Court, the battle between the distorted program and the remnants of Xuan Tian for power was still fierce and endless, seemingly destined to last for eternity.

While the two sides were fighting, they did not forget to look for him, but they did not have a deep enough understanding of the Eternal Celestial Court and failed to find him several times.

"It is safe for now."

Lu Heng sat cross-legged, circulating his supreme profound skill to repair his injuries. This battle had lasted for hundreds of years, from the outside of the World Tree to its core. Not only were several Immortal King artifacts severely damaged, but he himself was also seriously injured. Even with the protection of the three Heavenly Books and Immortal King-level treasures, various Immortal King Great Daos were intertwined, faintly forming shackles.

The eternal power permeating the small altar was activated, and countless strands of celestial light descended, eternally cleansing his physical body, primordial spirit, and even the origin of his immortality. After consuming some celestial medicine, he finally returned to his peak condition.

As for the Immortal King Law imprint that imprisoned Lu Heng's own Dao and Law, he did not use the power of the Reception Altar to shatter it. He deliberately left it behind, hoping to break through it with his own Dao Fruit. It was an excellent test.

This battle resulted in the loss of countless True Immortal Artifacts and Immortal King Artifacts, including treasures destined to become Quasi-Immortal Emperor Weapons, which perished before reaching their peak. Yet, their essence still carries wisps of imperial light. If Lu Heng can gather the strengths of various schools, it will greatly benefit his path to becoming an Immortal King or even a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Buzz!
In the silent space, time seemed to stand still. Lu Heng sat cross-legged on the Reception Altar for over a thousand years, constantly purifying his Immortal King Dao and comprehending the experiences of hundreds of years of bloody battles. His cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds, removing the flaws in his True Immortal Dao Fruit, making it perfect.

Although the shackles woven from countless innate Great Daos have not been broken, it is only because the cultivation level is insufficient. Once the Immortal King is broken through, they will all be transformed into nourishment.

Now, he is confident that he can directly step into the Immortal King realm, but the Immortal King he achieves in that way can only reach the pinnacle at most.

"I already have some ideas for my sixth secret realm. I can strip away my ancient bloodline Dao fruit along with all the messy Dao imprints on my body and condense them into a seed to lay a solid foundation for advancing to the Supreme Immortal King, or even Quasi-Immortal Emperor."

Lu Heng silently calculated, his eyes shining brightly. Quasi-Immortal Emperors also have another title, Dao Ancestor, but a Quasi-Immortal Emperor is not necessarily a Dao Ancestor, while a Dao Ancestor is always a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

The difference lies in forging an evolutionary path independently, which is extremely difficult.

Such a vast and boundless land contains Immortal Emperors and even more supreme geniuses, the Dao Children, whose prestige far surpasses that of any Great Emperor, First Generation Supreme, Immortal King Reincarnation, or True Immortal Offspring.

This is because the Dao Child is a leader on an evolutionary path, cultivated according to the standards of a quasi-Immortal Emperor. His task is either to inherit, to complete, or to innovate.

The top fifty Daoists in the heavens represent the fifty strongest paths of evolution, and the clash between them.

Even the Dao Child only followed the evolutionary path pioneered by his predecessors, eventually becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor. He cannot be called the Dao Ancestor. At most, becoming a Quasi-Immortal Emperor was easier for him, and further progress in the future would be extremely difficult.

Now that Lu Heng has planted the seed of the sixth secret realm, he must begin to contemplate the rudiments of his own evolutionary path.

"The five secret realms reside within the body, while the sixth secret realm can only be realized externally. My Dao of Creation is incomparably domineering, devouring everything and melting any Great Dao."

He continued to deduce and drew upon the Dao of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor. The sixth secret realm of the opponent was described as "There are gods three feet above your head." A petty person like myself will eventually return to himself. In this way, he broke through the king and became an emperor. It was also the manifestation of the supreme method of the Heaven of Other Transformation.

"The Desolate Emperor will eventually merge with the Sixth Secret Realm, but I will not. The Sixth Secret Realm will open up to the outside world, absorb all creation, and forge my own supreme [Dao Court]."

Lu Heng toured the three Heavenly Books of Blue Star, comprehended the complete mental cultivation method, and reached the ultimate sublimation. With a loud shout, the five great secret realms within his body roared, and all paths collapsed, causing an explosion in the outside world. Countless universes pointed to by the Reception Altar resonated, as if they were being guided and imprinted with a trace.

Rumble!
His five secret realms glowed, and wisps of immortal essence rose from his body, condensing above his head along with his spirit and energy.

Furthermore, Lu Heng's primordial spirit power shone like a torch, illuminating the endless myriad realms of the Reception Altar, and his blood and qi power was even more intense, burning mountains and boiling seas, illuminating the vast and boundless universe.

Lu Heng poured out all his cultivation, encompassing his vital energy and primordial spirit, and gradually peeled away the Dao fruit of his peak Battle Immortal realm. Outside the human body, he evolved an unparalleled path of evolution, opening up a brand new world.
