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

Chapter 610 A generous move

"Why? Don't you want to break through to become an emperor?" Cangwu asked in confusion.

"Can't one become an emperor in the myriad worlds? Didn't the Desolate Emperor and the Quasi-Immortal Emperor who fought against him also become emperors in the myriad worlds? If you can't become an emperor in the myriad worlds, can you do it in the world beyond the sword light?" Li Daoming said with a hint of disdain.

Upon hearing this, Di Xuan, Hong Yuan, Cang Wu, and the other eight fell silent, speechless.

In fact, they knew that Li Daoming was right. Their inability to defeat Wang Chengdi was not a problem of the environment, but rather a problem of themselves.

Even if they went to the world beyond the sword light, they might not be able to break through to become an emperor. No, it should be said that the possibility of them breaking through to become an emperor is extremely small.

This is roughly like the True Immortals in the weaker universes of the myriad worlds who, unable to break through to the Immortal King level, arrive in a wider and more powerful universe. Although they have the hope of breaking through to the Immortal King level, how many of them can actually do so in the end? Very few, the vast majority cannot!

For them to break through from King to Emperor is more difficult and less likely than for a True Immortal to break through to Immortal King!
“Fellow Daoist Wuji is right. If you cannot become an Emperor by breaking through the King realm in the myriad worlds, it will be difficult to do so in the world after the sword light.” Di Xuan’s voice was somewhat low.

But…” Di Xuan’s words changed, his expression becoming resolute:

"We have reached a point where we can hardly advance any further in the myriad worlds. If we do not venture out, we have no hope of breaking through. Only by venturing out, witnessing more of the Dao and the Dharma, and comprehending scriptures of higher realms, can we hope to advance further and break through to the level of King and become Emperor."

"Even if the hope is slim, we are willing to give it our all!"

“Fellow Daoist Di Xuan is absolutely right. I have been trying to break through to the Supreme Immortal King level for millions of years, but I have been unable to make any further progress. Rather than wasting time in the myriad worlds, I might as well go to the world beyond the sword light and give it a shot.” ​​Hun Tian’s eyes contained an unwavering belief.

Following that, the six Immortal Kings, including Hongyuan, also expressed their opinions, all with very firm attitudes.

"So what? You want to use the power of so many Immortal Kings to force me to send out the Nine Dragons Coffin?" Li Daoming's sharp gaze swept over all the kings present, finally settling on Di Xuan, Hong Yuan, and the other eight.

In fact, he quite agrees with their choices and their desire to seek the truth.

If it were him, unaware of what the world beyond the sword light was like, and his cultivation was stuck and unable to break through, he might also do what they did, risking everything to try and find an opportunity to break through.

Even if he knew what the world would be like after the sword light, he might still risk his life to break through, at most leaving some backup plans for revival.

However, being accepted is one thing, being forced to produce the Nine Dragons Coffin is another.

He cannot allow them to coerce him and slap him in the face simply because he agrees with their pursuit of the Way.

"Of course not, we didn't mean that. We are willing to trade rare treasures, divine ingredients and elixirs, scriptures and secret techniques... for the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin. We will definitely not let you suffer a loss!" Immortal King Cangwu replied.

"Indeed, as long as you are willing to trade, we are willing to pay any price, such as the secret scriptures and techniques we possess that are not passed on to outsiders, such as World Stone, Sands of Time, Void Immortal Gold, Five Elements Immortal Gold, Dao Shadow Stone... these divine materials that can be used to refine Immortal King weapons, such as World Tree, Celestial Immortal Tree, Three Lives Medicine, Clear Heart and Bright Lotus, Blood Soul Fruit Tree... these immortal medicines at the Immortal King level, such as some special rare treasures: Thunder Tribulation Liquid, Dao Spirit Marrow, Feather Transformation Source Liquid, Phoenix Nirvana Heart..."

“Fellow Daoist Wuji, although you are powerful, you have not lived long enough and probably do not have many treasures. We have lived through countless years and have many treasures. If we pool our resources together, it should be enough to satisfy you.”

"The Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin has been in your possession for so long, it must be useless to you now. Why not trade with us and exchange it for some treasures that you might find useful?"

……

Di Xuan, Hong Yuan, Cang Wu, Hun Tian, ​​and the other three each offered a word of advice, hoping Li Daoming would agree to the deal. If possible, they were unwilling to resort to coercion or force.

"What a generous offer!" Upon hearing the terms of the deal proposed by Di Xuan and the others, Li Daoming felt both impressed and slightly tempted.

His Yin-Yang Dao Body traversed the Boundary Sea, and his numerous Dao Bodies traveled through the boundless chaos. In fact, he obtained some treasures, but very few were useful to the Immortal King. There were only two: a small piece of World Stone and a large patch of Chaos Mist.

The World Stone was discovered in the Boundary Sea and was likely formed from some broken worlds that fell into the Boundary Sea. The Chaos Mist was discovered in the boundless chaos. Without being refined, it could suppress the divine sense of an Immortal King and mislead his direction. If refined, it would definitely become a powerful and bewitching treasure.

But his gains were still too little; he hadn't even gathered one-tenth of the immortal materials needed to reforge the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and the Wuji Dao Disc.

If he agrees to the deal, not only will he have the immortal materials to refine the Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and the Wuji Dao Disc, but the ruthless empress, Wushi, Xia Qinghuang, Jiang Qianxi, Kong Lin, Xin Hua, Li Wuhen, Li Wuyou... will also have the immortal materials to refine the Immortal King Weapons.

Actually, he was alright. His Yin-Yang Taiji Diagram and Wuji Dao Disc used all the immortal materials from the Wuji Immortal Realm and even incorporated some world origins. Although each of those immortal materials was insufficient to forge an Immortal King Weapon, the combination of them was enough for him for the time being.

However, the ruthless Wushi and his group did not have enough immortal materials to give them, nor could they integrate their artifacts into the origin of the Boundless Immortal Realm, as that would be too costly.

This will result in their artifacts lagging far behind their progress after they break through to the Immortal King level, offering them little benefit.

In addition, many immortal medicines at the level of True Immortals and Immortal Kings are also of great use to him.

It can be used to study and comprehend the profound laws contained within it, and to perfect its Yin-Yang Dao and the Three Thousand Laws.

Its fruit can be used to refine elixirs and cultivate powerful individuals for the Boundless Holy Court.

These elixirs can also be placed at key nodes of the Yin-Yang Micro Dust Immortal Array to suppress the array and allow it to unleash even greater power.

The World Tree can be nurtured using the world's origin to become a powerful fighting force. At the same time, it can suppress the Boundless Immortal Realm, making it more stable. Its branches and leaves are also treasures.

……

Those rare and precious treasures also played a significant role for him and the Wuji Holy Court.

And what about the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin? If it were useful to him, he wouldn't have left him in the human realm to wander around.

Although somewhat tempted, Li Daoming still did not intend to use the Nine Dragons Coffin for the transaction.

The Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin is a three-life bronze coffin, crafted from chaotic spirit stones. It contains three layers of coffins. Its creator was a mysterious powerhouse above the Sacrifice Dao Realm who, in his pursuit of a higher realm, suffered from illness. He then forged the bronze coffin to seal his ashes and prevent them from polluting the myriad realms.

Although his cultivation level was too low, he was completely powerless against the Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin and could not utilize it at all.

However, it would be foolish to trade away treasures at the level of Immortal Kings.
