The Heaven-shattering: I and Wu Shi compete for the throne

Chapter 418 Delis

After traveling to many ancient life-bearing stars and cradles of life, Li Daoming then manipulated the Undying Mountain to continuously traverse the cosmos, merging with the universe on the Undying Mountain and gradually gaining a deeper understanding of the Great Dao Laws hidden deep within the origin of the universe.

Time flies, and thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Cosmic frontier
Two supreme figures stood there, simply standing calmly, as if they were the center of the universe and the masters of heaven and earth. They did not exude any aura, but upon seeing them, one could see all the paths of the universe submitting and wailing, as if they were going to pierce through the past, present and future and suppress all the heavens and the universe.

Besides these two figures, there were twenty-four others, scattered across the desolate corners of the universe.

Although they were not as invincible and grand as these two figures, they still exuded an aura of supreme power, which terrified the heavens and the earth.

"Are you ready?" Li Daoming looked at Wushi, a ripple of emotion flashing in his eyes.

He has been in this world for nearly ten thousand years.

This day will be a day to remember, a day that will be recorded in history and become an eternal legend.

Today, he and Wushi will tear apart the myriad paths of heaven and earth, stand above them, and at the same time, open up the myriad paths of heaven and earth for the twenty-four unconventional Dao achievers of the Wuji Holy Court, helping them to prove their Dao and become emperors.

"Are you really going to do this?" Wu Shi asked in a deep voice.

In fact, he did not agree with Li Daoming's approach.

It wasn't that he felt that opening up the myriad paths of heaven and earth and helping the twenty-four unconventional individuals of the Boundless Holy Court achieve enlightenment and become emperors would diminish his glory.

Instead, they felt that with their natural talents, even with Li Daoming's guidance, it would be difficult for them to successfully navigate the mortal path to immortality.

As for breaking through the path to immortality and making the whole world immortal, it may not be feasible if it is not at the right time or in the right place.

If they are unable to break through the path to immortality and enter the Immortal Realm, and are also unable to traverse the mortal immortal path, what should they do? Sever their own bodies and become forbidden zones? Or simply pass away peacefully?
If the goal is to sever oneself and become a forbidden zone, then what was the point of Li Daoming's previous suppression of the forbidden zone?
If he were to pass away peacefully, among these people were Li Daoming's subordinates, wife, and children. He felt that Li Daoming might not be able to bear watching them pass away peacefully.

In his view, rather than facing a dilemma and having no choice at the time, it would be better not to let them attain enlightenment.

It's not too late to let them become emperors after they've made it onto the path to immortality and are guaranteed to enjoy longevity.

Li Daoming exchanged a glance with Wu Shi and roughly guessed his thoughts. After pondering for a moment, he sent out a beam of spiritual light and transmitted the method of reversing the Holy Spirit to Wu Shi.

Upon receiving the method of reversing the Holy Spirit, Wushi also showed a look of sudden realization.

The Holy Spirit, if corrupted, would take at least tens or hundreds of thousands of years to fully develop, and even after full development, if it does not emerge into the world but remains dormant, it can continue indefinitely.

It will be enough for them to become immortals in the mortal world, and break through the path to immortality to enter the immortal realm.

Therefore, it's no wonder that Li Daoming chose to allow many unconventional individuals from the Wuji Holy Court to attain Dao and become emperors.

"You've seen the Reverse Holy Spirit Technique, Wushi. Do you want to let Dilis also attain the Dao and become an Emperor?" Li Daoming asked with great interest.

Speaking of Dilisi, Wushi owes him a huge favor.

Five or six thousand years ago, he controlled the Undying Mountain and traveled through the desolate and deserted universe, where he accidentally encountered a female saint who was lost in the desolate universe.

If it were an ordinary female saint, he wouldn't pay any attention to her and would simply control the Undying Mountain to leave.

But that person was different. The moment he saw her, he vaguely sensed through cause and effect that she was connected to Wushi. So he invited her into the Undying Mountain and inquired about her background and name. She was Dilisi, a proud daughter of an ancient clan.

She had a chance encounter with Wushi by chance.

Later she realized that she no longer had eyes for anyone else; she had fallen in love with Wushi.

However, as a prodigy of an ancient clan, she couldn't convince herself at that time to like a human.

Later, she could no longer deceive herself, so she set foot in the starry sky, following in the footsteps of Wushi, wanting to find Wushi.

But she got lost after encountering a calamity, lost in the vast universe.

After thousands of years of cultivation, she reached the peak of the Saint King realm. However, the universe is too vast. If she gets lost and has no coordinates, unless she is a Quasi-Emperor, it will be difficult for her to find her way back.

It is foreseeable that if Li Daoming had not controlled the Undying Mountain and had traveled through the universe, and had encountered her by chance, her final fate would have been just like in the original story, where she sat alone in the universe and passed away, leaving only a snow-white and crystal-clear skull, leaving behind a wisp of obsession, leaving the Great Emperor Wushi with only sorrow.

However, when she met Li Daoming, everything naturally changed.

Knowing that she was Di Lisi, Li Daoming thought of the ending of the original novel and also knew that she was probably not in unrequited love, and that Wu Shi should also have feelings for her.

Otherwise, her skull wouldn't have appeared, and Wushi wouldn't have manifested a phantom image, revealing sadness.

Driven by a wicked sense of humor and unwilling to witness a tragic ending, Li Daoming sent Di Lisi to the Beidou Star Region, the secluded place of Wushi.

After that, no one knows what happened, but only a few hundred years later, he received an invitation from Wushi. This time, it was not a challenge, but a wedding invitation.

Wu Shi and Di Li Si are getting married!
Thousands of years have passed since then, and Delis has long since transcended the ordinary and attained enlightenment.

In fact, with Dilis's talent, it would be difficult for her to break through to the Quasi-Emperor level without an extraordinary opportunity, let alone achieve enlightenment through alternative means.

But Wu Shi only had her as his Daoist partner and his soulmate, and he was willing to pay a great price for her.

After Wushi comprehended the mysteries of the Chaos Body and evolved the perfect Chaos Dao, he consumed the Chaos Body Origin Blood Essence obtained through a trade, and further refined some Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo Origin Blood Essence, using it to refine a heaven-defying divine pill, transforming her body and soul.

They also obtained the dual cultivation method created by Li Daoming from him, which allowed Di Lisi to break through to an alternative path of enlightenment in less than a thousand years after their marriage.

"Of course I will! I'll have my avatar inform her so she can also attain Emperor status!" Wu Shi didn't hesitate at all!
If he didn't have the method to reverse the Holy Spirit, he certainly wouldn't have allowed Delis to attain enlightenment together.

Because he could help Dilis break through to achieve an alternative path to enlightenment, or even become an emperor, but he was not confident that she could also embark on the path to immortality in the mortal world, nor could he open the path to immortality and enter the immortal realm before her lifespan ended.

But now it's different. With the Reverse Holy Spirit Technique, there's a way out. If the mortal immortal path is blocked and you can't enter the immortal realm, you can still reverse the Holy Spirit. You won't need to cut yourself off or die.

Moreover, after Delis attains the Dao and becomes an emperor, her lifespan will be extended significantly.

She did not attain the Dao and become an emperor, but only achieved the Dao in an alternative way. Even though she took many longevity-promoting medicines, and even though her physique transformed into an incomplete innate holy body Dao embryo, Di Lisi's lifespan was at most eleven or twelve thousand years.

However, once one attains the Dao and becomes an Emperor, their lifespan can be increased to at least 15,000 years, or even more.
