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

Chapter 478 The Pros and Cons of Transformation in a Strange World
Unaware of Biluo Shenjiang's thoughts, Wan Qing followed him all the way to the forbidden area of ​​the Wuji Holy Court: the Divine Ruins.

The Boundless Holy Court has two forbidden areas: the Divine Ruins and the Undying Mountain.

The Divine Ruins served as the cultivation ground for Li Wuhen, Li Wuyou, Yang Cheng, and others, and was also a place where most of the cultivators of the Boundless Holy Court, whose lifespans were nearing their end, had sealed themselves off.

Mount Undying was the cultivation ground for Li Daoming, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, and others, and also a place where female cultivators who were willing to serve him cultivated and self-proclaimed themselves.

Apart from numerous emperors, everyone else who enters these two places never leaves.

Biluo Divine General was not qualified to enter or leave the Divine Ruins. He brought Wan Qing to the Divine Ruins and let him enter on his own.

As soon as Wan Qing entered the Divine Ruins, Yang Cheng came to meet him and led him into the depths of the Divine Ruins.

At this moment, Wan Qing was also deeply shaken.

He originally thought that he had destroyed all the paths of heaven and earth to become an emperor, and among all the emperors of ancient and modern times, he was only inferior to his master, the Wuji Heavenly Emperor. Although he was inferior to his master, he was confident that as long as he had enough time, he might be able to catch up.

But at this moment, he realized that he had underestimated the emperors of the past.

He sensed immense pressure and a strong sense of crisis emanating from the person before him. His keen intuition told him that he was very likely no match for him.

Although he had never met the person before, he could recognize him by his appearance and the Dao: Emperor Yang Cheng, the "fallen" emperor of the Wuji Holy Court.

If he didn't perish and still possesses such strength, what about the other twenty-odd Great Emperors of the Boundless Holy Court? Did they also not perish, and are they just as powerful?
If so, that would be incredible!
Soon, the two arrived at the main hall deep within the Divine Ruins.

"Wan Qing greets Master!" Upon seeing Li Daoming, Wan Qing respectfully bowed.

"No need for formalities!" Li Daoming gestured slightly for Wan Qing to stand up.

Looking him over, Li Daoming was very satisfied. In the original story, Wan Qing died early and his cultivation disappeared, so it was difficult to judge his future achievements.

However, his current performance is in no way inferior to Wushi's. In fact, his heaven-defying path to enlightenment has made him even stronger than when he and Wushi first attained enlightenment. Perhaps he will be able to rival Wushi in the future.

If he can really grow to that level, then he'll have hit the jackpot.

Without further ado, he introduced him to the emperors of the Boundless Holy Court, allowing them to get to know each other.

After getting to know each other, Wan Qing couldn't help but ask him about the many questions that had been bothering him.

Faced with Wan Qing's question, Li Daoming did not answer, but instead directly transmitted to him the secrets that only the great emperors of the Wuji Holy Court knew through his divine sense.

Of course, there is also the method of immortal transformation in the mortal world that he deduced, and the direction of transformation.

Having obtained the secrets known only to the Great Emperors of the Boundless Holy Court, Wan Qing instantly understood, and most of his doubts were completely resolved.

"Master, there is still one thing I don't understand," Wan Qing said after a moment of contemplation.

“If I know something and can tell you, I certainly won’t hide it from you,” Li Daoming replied.

"The strange world contains a small amount of immortal matter, the cultivation environment is better, lifespan is longer, and one can also walk the path of immortality in the mortal world. Why don't Senior Yang Cheng and the others enter the strange world to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world, but instead suffer in the human world?" Wan Qing asked, puzzled.

The cultivation environment in this strange world is better, lifespan is longer, and there is more time to study the path of immortality in the mortal world, so it should be more suitable for people to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

His master chose to remain in the mortal realm, and he knew the reason from previous revelations: it was to guard against and lure out the Emperor. But what about the other Great Emperors of the Boundless Holy Court? Why didn't they go to the Strange World? They only went there when the mortal immortal path became impassable.

Is there any downside to walking the path of immortality in a strange world?
Wan Qing voiced his suspicions and looked at Li Daoming with a puzzled expression.

"Walking the path of immortality in a strange world has both advantages and disadvantages!"

"What is the Immortal Path in the Mortal World? It is about tapping into one's own potential, transforming oneself, living life in reverse, becoming a self-sufficient being, and being able to generate immortal essence for longevity."

"There is no immortal substance in the human world. To transform, one must deeply explore one's own potential. The gains after transformation are naturally enormous."

"The strange world contains a small amount of immortal matter. Although one still needs to tap into one's own potential to transform, absorbing a small amount of immortal matter will make the transformation easier, and the rewards from the transformation will naturally be less."

"For those who lack talent and find it difficult to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world, it would be much easier to cultivate in a strange world."

However, for those with sufficient talent and comprehension who can successfully navigate the mortal realm and the path to immortality, it is best to undergo transformation in the human world.

Of course, the environment does have an impact on people, but in this world, people are always the strongest.

Just like Yang Cheng and the others who underwent transformation in the human realm, their combat power is far inferior to that of Wu Shi, who underwent transformation in the strange world.

"If you wish to enter the strange world to cultivate, you can use the interdimensional passage I opened to enter the strange world. With your combat strength, you should be able to do it."

“This…” Wan Qing hesitated upon hearing this.

He was, after all, a great emperor who defied the heavens to attain enlightenment, and his understanding of cultivation was extremely profound. Naturally, he could tell that what his master said was true.

Logically speaking, having learned the difference, he would definitely choose to transform in the human realm.

As for the difficulty of transformation in the human realm? He was confident that it would not be a problem for him, and that he would definitely be able to get through it.

However, at this moment, he thought of the idea he had when he encountered the Desolate Tower, which led him to evolve a celestial realm within it.

For some reason, he had a deep feeling that he should settle down in the Immortal Realm, in a place filled with immortal matter. If he could settle down in such a place and absorb a large amount of immortal matter, he would definitely undergo a great transformation, and it would not be impossible for him to become an immortal quickly.

Although the strange world is not as good as the immortal realm, it also contains a small amount of immortal matter, which he felt should be more suitable for him.

Sensing Wan Qing's hesitation, Li Daoming was also slightly surprised.

He originally thought that with Wan Qing's arrogance, once he knew the difference between transformation in the human realm and the strange world, he would definitely not care about the difficulties of transformation in the human realm and would definitely choose to transform in the human realm. But what's going on now? Why does he seem to be hesitating?
Sensing Li Daoming's surprise, and perhaps not wanting to disappoint him, Wan Qing revealed her feelings and previous plans.

"You actually obtained the Desolate Tower?" Li Daoming asked, a mixture of surprise and frustration.

He once tried to find the Desolate Tower and the Immortal Bell to comprehend the immortal laws within them, but he searched almost the entire universe without finding them.

As for the original text mentioning that after the Azure Emperor attained enlightenment, he brought out the Desolate Tower from the Divine Ruins, it is unknown whether it was too early or for some other reason, but when he destroyed the Divine Ruins, he did not find the Desolate Tower in the Divine Ruins.

To my utter surprise, it still ended up in Wan Qing's hands.

After being surprised and annoyed, I was speechless!
He really wanted to ask Wan Qing: What level are you at now? Don't you have any self-awareness?
