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

Chapter 621 Passed Down
"May I ask, Brother Dao, how can I break through the King Realm and advance to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm? If you are willing to offer some guidance, I am willing to pay any price!" At this moment, Hongyuan stepped forward and bowed deeply in supplication.

He is the Emperor Light Immortal King, but so far he has not found a way to break through from King to Emperor, and he sees no hope of breaking through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Even though he felt that Li Daoming was unlikely to speak, lest he be overtaken and some rivals emerge in the myriad worlds who could rival him and shake his position, he was unwilling to give up any hope.

“Although I have deduced several methods to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, even knowing the method makes it difficult to break through,” Li Daoming said after a moment of contemplation.

In fact, he also intended to pass on the method of breaking through the king and becoming an emperor to them, so as to extract more treasures from them and make them work for him.

However, he always traded honestly and fairly, neither deceiving them nor giving them too high hopes, because even if they obtained the method to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, none of them might be able to achieve a breakthrough.

"Brother Dao, what are you saying? Everyone knows how difficult it is to break through from King to Emperor. How can knowing the method guarantee a breakthrough? We would be extremely grateful if you were willing to tell us the method and give us some pointers!" Di Xuan said, barely suppressing his excitement.

He had originally thought that Li Daoming would not instruct them on how to defeat Emperor Wang Cheng.

But judging from his tone now, it seems he doesn't mind telling them the method to break the king and become an emperor.

How could he possibly let this glimmer of hope slip away? At that moment, he secretly made up his mind that no matter the cost, he would obtain the method to break through the King and become an Emperor.

“Indeed, Fellow Daoist Di Xuan is quite right. Even if we know the methods to break through to True Immortal and Immortal King and spread them, how many people in the world can actually break through to True Immortal or Immortal King?”

"I am willing to offer all the treasures I have accumulated to you, fellow Daoist, and I ask that you pass on the method to break through the King and become an Emperor. Even if we fail, it will be due to our own shortcomings," Hongyuan continued.

"I am also willing to offer all the treasures I have accumulated, as well as all the scriptures and secret techniques I have mastered, to you, fellow Daoist. I also ask you to pass on the method of breaking through the King and becoming an Emperor. Whether or not I succeed, I will be eternally grateful!" Cangwu also pleaded.

Seeing this, the other Immortal Kings, including Xian Yin, Jin Yang, and others, were impressed by him. They all spoke up, expressing their willingness to offer all their treasures and all the scriptures and secret techniques they possessed, in order to ask him to pass on the method of breaking through the King and becoming an Emperor.

"Since you've all said so, I can pass on the method of breaking through the king and becoming an emperor to you. However, you don't need to give up all the scriptures and secret techniques you've mastered, or all the treasures you've accumulated."

"Give me a copy of all the scriptures and secret techniques you possess. Immortal Yin, Golden Sun, Heavenly Eclipse... you each give me 30% of your treasures, and the rest of you each give me half of your treasures. In return, I will pass on to you the method I have deduced for breaking through the King and becoming an Emperor. Do you have any objections?" Li Daoming asked.

Although he was very tempted by the treasures of the many immortal kings, he did not want to appear too greedy.

Moreover, the treasures previously presented by the many Immortal Kings were already more than enough for him and the many powerful figures of the Boundless Holy Court to use.

Furthermore, the breakthrough method he passed on to them was nothing special. As long as they continued to cultivate and break through in the future, he was confident he could squeeze them dry and turn them into competent laborers.

"We have no objection!" the many Immortal Kings replied quickly in unison, fearing that Li Daoming might change his mind.

They originally thought they would have to offer up all their treasures in order to obtain the method to break the king and become an emperor.

But now that they only need half, it's already somewhat beyond their expectations.

Immortal Kings like Xianyin, Jinyang, and Tianshi were overjoyed. They only wanted 30%—what did that mean? It meant that in Li Daoming's eyes, they were special, practically his loyal followers.

Moreover, hundreds of thousands of years later, when Li Daoming breaks through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, they will have a Quasi-Immortal Emperor as their backer and can receive guidance from him. Their chances of breaking through bottlenecks and even becoming emperors will be greater than others.

"Brother Wuji, these are all the scriptures and secret techniques I have mastered. This is thirty percent of my treasured collection. Please accept them!" Xianyin respectfully took out a ball of light and a spatial dimension and presented them to Li Daoming.

He didn't have many immortal roots and herbs that needed to be planted outside, and he carried most of his treasures with him, so he could take out 30% of his own treasures without returning to the dojo.

Seeing this, many immortal kings took out their scriptures, secret techniques, and treasures and handed them to Li Daoming.

However, some Celestial Kings did not carry so many treasures with them, leaving most of them at their Daoist temples, and quickly returned to their temples to retrieve their treasures.

Li Daoming showed no politeness and did not bother to check whether they had handed over all the required amount.

He believed that as long as they weren't fools, they certainly wouldn't offend him, a man of immense fighting power who was about to break through to become an emperor, for the sake of these external things.

Having accepted the scriptures, secret techniques, and treasures offered by the many Immortal Kings, Li Daoming didn't waste any time. Under the eager gazes of the many Immortal Kings, he slowly spoke: "I have deduced a total of four methods for breaking through to Quasi-Immortal Emperor."

The first method is to obtain a Celestial Emperor's scripture, comprehend the Celestial Emperor's Dao, and pursue the Celestial Emperor's Dao. As long as one's understanding of the Celestial Emperor's Dao is deep enough, one can break through to the Quasi-Celestial Emperor level.

The second approach is to innovate within a cultivation system, forging a unique path of one's own, or to create a new cultivation system, which may also lead to a breakthrough to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

The third method involves cultivating multiple cultivation systems, producing multiple Emperor Light Immortal King Dao Fruits, and fusing these fruits, which may lead to a breakthrough to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

Fourthly, after I break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, I will merge all the heavens and worlds into the Boundless Immortal Realm, transforming it into the Supreme Emperor Realm. Anyone who receives the Boundless Immortal Realm's empowerment can break through. Alternatively, if someone can achieve divine fusion with all the heavens and worlds, they can also break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, or even higher.

In fact, Li Daoming deduced more than just these methods for breaking through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level. There are other methods that could also potentially allow someone to break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level.

For example, one might merge with a Quasi-Immortal Emperor's weapon to become its weapon spirit, and then break free from the weapon, potentially achieving a breakthrough.

However, if one combines with a Quasi-Immortal Emperor weapon, their primordial spirit is easily obliterated by the Quasi-Immortal Emperor's laws, making the chance of success extremely low. Moreover, once one becomes the weapon spirit of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor weapon, it is not easy to escape. Even if one manages to escape, one will be the weakest among Quasi-Immortal Emperors, and will have no power to resist the creator of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor weapon.

For example, if two Emperor Light Immortal Kings merge their Dao Fruits through the fusion of Yin and Yang, the Dao Fruits might undergo a transformation, or they might break through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level. However, he didn't know what would happen if the two Immortal Kings shared a Quasi-Immortal Emperor Dao Fruit.

For example, by using the dual cultivation method he pioneered, one could cultivate with a quasi-immortal emperor or even a higher-level expert to perfect one's own Dao at a higher level, and there is a great chance of breaking through to the quasi-immortal emperor level.
