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

Chapter 480 Wan Qing's Choice
"Entering the Immortal Realm, you can absorb a large amount of immortal matter without suppression, undergo an unimaginable transformation, and even break through to the True Immortal realm or even higher under the guidance of the immortal laws that are reviving within your body."

"But once you reach a certain level of cultivation, you will be limited by the immortal laws contained within your body, making it difficult to advance further."

"If one were to walk the path of immortality in the mortal realm, although it might take hundreds of thousands of years to complete, each lifetime of reversed life would be a transformation, greatly increasing one's aptitude, potential, and comprehension."

"Once you ascend to immortality in the mortal world, your aptitude and potential will be elevated to an incredibly terrifying level, making it much easier to break through to higher realms in the future."

"Furthermore, after you become an immortal in the mortal world, the laws of the human realm will no longer be able to suppress you. The immortal laws that were originally severed will reappear, causing you to undergo another transformation. Moreover, by digesting and integrating the reappeared immortal laws, you will most likely be able to advance even further."

“Master, I hope my physical constitution can be restored, but I have never thought about cultivating the immortal laws to become an immortal.”

What I want is to improve my foundation and enhance my potential after my physical constitution is restored, so that my subsequent cultivation will be smoother.

"Even if my physical constitution and origins are restored and the laws of immortality are revived, I will sever the revived laws of immortality, retaining only the more powerful origins, and walk the path of immortality in the mortal world," Wan Qing said proudly.

He's not a novice in cultivation, how could he possibly make such a basic mistake?

If one cultivates the immortal laws that have been revived after the original source has undergone transformation and restoration, and uses them to become an immortal, it is similar to the imperial laws contained in the bloodline of an imperial prince. It is easy to reach the limit of the bloodline, but it is almost impossible to break through the limitation.

He certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to ruin his own future!
Upon hearing this, Li Daoming understood Wan Qing's idea and had to admit that it was indeed a good one.

First, allow your physical constitution to undergo a transformation and recovery, then sever the laws of immortality. This way, your aptitude and potential will advance further, and you will not be affected by the laws of immortality. If you then embark on the path of immortality in the mortal world, the chances of success will be greater, and your strength should also be stronger after you succeed.

Unfortunately, unless he goes to the Immortal Realm, he will not be able to transform and recover.

However, once you go to the Immortal Realm, the conditions there become even less suitable for following the path of immortality in the mortal world.

On the path to immortality in the mortal world, the harsher the conditions, the more difficult the transformation, but the greater the reward; conversely, the more favorable the conditions, the easier the transformation, but the smaller the reward.

If one were to truly walk the path of immortality in the mortal realm, it would be extremely difficult to succeed. Even if one did succeed, could one truly be considered a mortal immortal? Could one truly be comparable to a quasi-immortal king, like a mortal immortal who has emerged from the human realm?

I'm afraid not!
At this moment, Wan Qing had already understood the true meaning of the Red Dust Immortal, and a little regret arose in his heart.

If possible, he would naturally want to have his cake and eat it too. He wanted to undergo a transformation of his physical constitution, sever the laws of immortality, and return to the mortal realm to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

However, if he doesn't go to the Immortal Realm, his physical constitution cannot be transformed and restored; if he goes to the Immortal Realm, he cannot return to the mortal world to walk the path of immortality. He simply cannot have both.

After a moment of regret, Wan Qing decided not to go to the Immortal Realm, but to walk the path of immortality in the mortal world.

He had just done some deductions and felt that if he could successfully walk the path to immortality in the mortal world, the potential for becoming an immortal would likely be greater than if he went to the immortal realm to undergo a transformation and then slowly cultivate to become an immortal.

Seeing that Wan Qing had made a choice, Li Daoming naturally had no objections. In fact, Wan Qing's choice was exactly what he had hoped to see.

If Wan Qing really chooses to go to the Immortal Realm, he might not say anything, but he will definitely be disappointed and regretful towards Wan Qing.

Immediately afterwards, everyone began the banquet that had been prepared in advance to welcome Wan Qing to the Wuji Holy Court.

While feasting, they also gave Wan Qing a brief introduction to the Wuji Holy Court, helping him better understand it. After the feast, the inevitable discussion session followed.

Of course, it's not a martial arts debate, but a literary debate. A martial arts debate would cause too much of a stir and might be noticed by the hidden emperors, so they don't really make any moves now.

Even if they were to take action, they would enter the inner chaos and fight within a pre-arranged formation to isolate themselves from the commotion of the battle.

The discussion of the Dao by more than a dozen Heavenly Emperors was naturally extraordinary. Within the Divine Ruins, the Heavenly Sound of the Great Dao resounded, echoing through the nine heavens. Here, all the myriad Daos of Heaven and Earth were directly manifested, exuding the charm of the Dao, making it a place close to the Dao.

It's no exaggeration to say that even an ordinary pig here, influenced by the Daoist principles, could enter into enlightenment and become extraordinary.

Unfortunately, apart from those at the Great Emperor level, the Divine Ruins are only allowed to enter but not leave. Anyone who enters is nearing the end of their lifespan and has already sealed themselves off, so no one can actually seize this opportunity.

They shared their insights on the Great Dao, and seeing Wan Qing's performance, the emperors became increasingly satisfied with him.

The Heavenly Emperor ruled for tens of thousands of years, nurturing more than twenty Great Emperors and nearly thirty who achieved enlightenment through unconventional means. Countless peerless geniuses among them wanted to become the Heavenly Emperor's disciples, but without exception, they were all rejected.

They had previously been somewhat puzzled as to why the Heavenly Emperor, who had always been reluctant to accept disciples, would suddenly take Wan Qing as his apprentice. Now they understood: it wasn't that the Heavenly Emperor was unwilling to accept disciples, but rather that his standards were too high.

Those people were certainly talented, but they were far inferior to Wan Qing.

Wan Qing was less than a thousand years old when he broke through all the paths and defied the heavens to become an emperor. Although we haven't fought him yet, seeing the scene of him undergoing tribulation, we know that his combat power is stronger than when they relied on themselves to live a second life.

Moreover, his comprehension is extremely high; he understands things instantly and grasps them completely. Some of them even believe that Wan Qing's comprehension is no worse than theirs.

Don't think that they think Wan Qing's comprehension is no worse than theirs, and that they are praising themselves and belittling Wan Qing. In fact, it is their recognition and praise of Wan Qing.

When a creature's cultivation level increases, its aptitude, potential, and comprehension will also increase accordingly.

Especially after they embarked on the path to immortality in the mortal world, their aptitude, potential, and comprehension would greatly increase with each transformation they underwent.

These emperors who are still walking the path of immortality in the mortal realm have basically lived through their fifth life. Although some of them took the elixir of immortality and did not undergo a transformation in one life, resulting in little improvement, they have all undergone three transformations.

Having undergone three transformations, their aptitude, potential, and comprehension are many times stronger than when they first attained enlightenment. Yet, they are almost on par with Wan Qing, who has just attained enlightenment without undergoing a single transformation. This demonstrates the exceptionally high level of Wan Qing's comprehension.

It is entirely conceivable that if Wan Qing had also undergone three transformations, his aptitude, potential, and comprehension would far surpass theirs.

At this moment, while some emperors were becoming increasingly satisfied with Wan Qing, they couldn't help but feel somewhat disheartened.

Thanks to the Heavenly Emperor's extraordinary talent, the Boundless Holy Court possesses more than nine methods to transform and live out the next life.

Examples include the True Phoenix Nirvana Method, the Accumulation of Immortal Essence to Form an Immortal Embryo, the Severing of the Dao and Returning to the Origin for Reconstruction, the Chaos Dao Embryo Method, the Innate Sacred Body Dao Embryo Method, the Chaos Sacred Body Dao Embryo Method, the Body Transformation into Mortal Form Method, the Reversal of the Holy Spirit Method, the Primordial Spirit Sublimation Method, the Physical Body Sublimation Method, and the Spirit-Flesh Sublimation Method...
