Chapter 348 Enlightenment, the Path to Immortality
Even after the Divine Flower had finished blooming, the Heavenly Emperor, the Great Emperor, and the other enlightened beings remained, immersed in the deepest level of enlightenment.

Lu Heng calmed down and slowly comprehended the flower. In his eyes, it suddenly became different, transforming into wispy lines, and the light rain became blurry runes, stirring his mind.

The emperors sat cross-legged and remained motionless for a full ten years, comprehending, creating, and expounding the Dao. They also took advantage of this gathering to discuss the Dao with each other and explore the methods of longevity. Their auras became increasingly profound and unfathomable, and their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds without them even realizing it.

Once the ten-year mark arrived, some of the unorthodox supreme beings who had attained enlightenment would no longer observe, fearing that their primordial spirits would become unstable, and they would each depart.

Only those at the Emperor level can observe continuously.

This flower is different from the legend; it does not wither after blooming. It is crystal clear, and its stamens are like those of a flying fairy.

More than two hundred years have passed in the blink of an eye.

When the emperors saw the end, they suddenly awoke as if from a dream, and their cultivation increased dramatically. They never expected that sitting in meditation for more than two hundred years for a single flower would bring them such great benefits.

Ye Fan, in particular, had long since reached the Great Perfection of the Sacred Body, and his gaze had become increasingly profound, faintly touching upon the Heavenly Emperor's Dao.

Buzz!
The Divine Flower withered and transformed into a brilliant seed, as large as a longan. It broke through the void and was about to fly away when Lu Heng caught it and sealed it into a jade jar.

All three extraordinary flowers are worth studying. He suddenly remembered that the process by which the Demon God Flower was absorbed by the demon race was exactly the same as the way pollen would be absorbed by the body after its petals withered and turned into pollen mist of earth, fire, wind and water.

In the future timeline of Shrouding the Heavens, which is the era of the Sacred Ruins of Emperor Chu, the three members of Shrouding the Heavens repaired the Immortal Realm and encountered a being that emerged from the strange plateau. They were forced to retreat, and the evolution path of the secret realm was severed, which led to the emergence of the pollen evolution path.

Each breakthrough requires a medium, which is the pollen of various exotic flowers in bloom.

Lu Heng now possesses the Demon God Flower and the Divine Flower. He has never seen the final Dao Harmony Flower, but he knows its whereabouts. It is estimated that the Empress left it for her brother. It can help people without any side effects, ignore the curse and obstacles of the Holy Body, and advance to the Great Emperor realm. This characteristic perfectly matches the evolution path of pollen.

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the three extraordinary flowers originated from the evolutionary path of pollen. It was said that they fell from the Immortal Realm, and the realm above the heavens was, to some extent, also the Immortal Realm, with an energy level even higher than that of the Immortal Realm.

After Brother Ruthless finishes using the Harmony Flower, let's see if we can get the seeds for research.

Lu Heng wants to create his own path of evolution, so he must learn from others and observe other paths of evolution. The pollen path is no ordinary path, but with the Immortal Emperor Ancestor around, he will also have karmic connections with many powerful beings in the future.

The Divine Flower withers, and it may be 100,000 years before it blooms again.

The Heavenly Emperors dispersed and went into seclusion, each gaining profound insights. The Azure Emperor and others integrated these insights into their own methods of longevity, while the Ancient Emperor Xuanwu, whose time was running out, was also working hard to comprehend the secrets of rebirth.

Lu Heng also gained something, and had an idea about evolving the immortal essence, which was the key to a new life in the mortal world.

He reviewed his past accumulations and began to ponder the path to immortality he would take in the future. He comprehended the following methods: the Elixir of Immortality and the Method of Longevity Through Withering and Flourishing, the Method of Longevity Through Transformation into a Holy Spirit, the Method of Longevity Through Faith in Nirvana, the Method of Longevity Through the Divine Phoenix Technique, and the Method of Longevity Through Self-Transformation Through Deduction Over a Hundred Lifetimes.

With just the above five abilities, he could easily live to his sixth life, not to mention that he could swallow the elixir of immortality, the Supreme Elixir Scripture which he had not yet fully studied, which allowed him to become the elixir himself, achieve immortality through nine cycles, and create endless longevity methods, as well as the longevity methods recorded in the Jade Book Purple Seal that he had just obtained.

"There are good and bad paths to immortality. The reincarnation method of the Underworld Lord is undoubtedly the most ordinary. Even if the Emperor Corpse Spirit lives a lifetime, if he only achieves enlightenment in an unconventional way in each lifetime, he will only live for more than 10,000 years. It is hard to judge the mortal immortals who achieve immortality in this way."

Lu Heng thought to himself, "The next option is to take the elixir of immortality and be reborn. Whether it's an emperor or a sovereign, or even the Heavenly Emperor Ye Fan, the lifespan of the new life will be the same as the previous one, neither increasing nor decreasing. The Heavenly Emperor Ye's first life was 25,000 years, and his second life was exactly the same. Only his third life, which he lived through by nurturing the immortal essence of immortality, was exceptionally extraordinary and long."

The same applies to Lu Heng. He had already figured out this path long ago, which is to deduce the past hundred generations and to painstakingly comprehend the enlightenment of those below the supreme level.

Following the method of consuming the elixir of immortality is the method of transforming into a holy spirit for longevity, chosen by the Emperor of Feathered Ascension. The Dao fruit is extraordinary, but it consumes too much time, often hundreds of thousands of years. Next is the Divine Phoenix Treasure Technique for transformation, equivalent to the Immortal Emperor bathing in the blood of all emperors for nirvana, but the Dao fruit obtained is also ordinary.

"Therefore, I may be able to rule out the Holy Spirit Longevity Method and the Divine Phoenix Longevity Method."

Lu Heng pondered that since he had already understood the path and it had been transformed into a foundational accumulation, it was not needed at the moment. However, if a Celestial King or Celestial Emperor suffered irreparable damage and was about to perish, it would also be a supreme healing method.

It's estimated that only Lu Heng is so arrogant, having the right to be picky about nearly ten methods of immortality. Other emperors and sovereigns are already quite remarkable if they can comprehend even one of them. Once they obtain one, they immediately put it into practice, leaving them with no choice.

Just like the former Feathered Emperor, the current Nine Nether Emperor is the same. With the Divine Phoenix Technique and the probability of Nirvana, they don't care whether it's superior or not; as long as they can survive, that's enough.

In addition, Lu Heng also realized that the order of the longevity methods is also very important. The more you live a second life, the more difficult it is, and the longer your lifespan becomes after you unlock it. For example, Empress Ye Fan's Great Dream of a Thousand Autumns Longevity Method was basically only comprehended in the last few lifetimes.

Currently, his most powerful method of achieving immortality is naturally the Nirvana Method, which integrates the Heaven-Covering Faith Method, the Buddhist scriptures of the Divine Tree of Mount Ling, the scriptures of the Supreme Heart Demon, and the Golden Chapter Great Method. It is the culmination of spiritual faith and fortune.

He decided to pursue this path to immortality only in his final lifetimes.

"I don't necessarily have to wait until I die of old age to start the next life. In each life, when my blood and Dao fruit reach their peak and are about to decline, I will be reborn and maintain my peak for a long time. The elixir of immortality is my backup plan. If there is a big problem in any life, I can save myself."

Lu Heng deduced his own path to immortality in the mortal world, setting the tone for his journey.

Subsequently, Lu Heng emerged from seclusion, and with one step, a golden road stretched across the universe, reaching all the way to Feixian Star, shaking the cosmos.

It is unknown which Heavenly Emperor from the Heavenly Court is on the trip.

He ventured to the Flying Immortal Star, which exploded the moment the path to immortality opened, and is now merely being rebuilt.

Lu Heng sensed the traces of the Dao of Heaven and Earth, and could vaguely feel the lingering effects of that fierce battle.

Buzz!
Suddenly, Lu Heng made his move, using his supreme divine power to reverse time and recreate part of the scene from the Supreme God War.

His brow shone brightly, with clear, luminous symbols intertwining and coalescing into a celestial mirror that reflected the heavens and the universe.

Finally, Lu Heng reached out and pulled out a wisp of dark energy from the void, which was extremely strange and attempted to erode him.

Seeing this, he remained silent. The Emperor had indeed been corrupted by darkness. Most importantly, he sensed a familiar trace in this dark aura.
