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

Chapter 661 Desiring to Walk the Immortal Path in the Mortal World
Moreover, not only is the Heavenly Emperor himself incredibly powerful, but his Daoist partner is also incredibly powerful, and so are his descendants and disciples.

In addition, many Immortal Kings noticed that while most of those who performed exceptionally well in the previous battles, possessing formidable strength among their peers and even capable of fighting beyond their level, were Li Daoming's concubines, there were quite a few who were not.

They and Li Daoming's concubines all had one thing in common:

That means cultivating the secret realm method, walking the path of immortal transformation in the mortal world, and only by becoming an immortal in the mortal world can one break through to the Immortal King level.

In addition, there were some who performed relatively well and also embarked on the path of immortality in the mortal world, but they did not succeed and instead turned to the path of true immortality.

Therefore, it is evident that those who cultivate secret realm methods and follow the path of mortal transformation into immortals possess a stronger foundation in cultivation and strength than those who cultivate other cultivation systems and follow the path of true immortals.

Of course, some might say that in this world, it is always people who are stronger, not the law.

For example, Li Daoming, Ruthless Empress, Wu Shi, Ye Fan... Dongfang Taiyi, Yang Cheng, Si Qi, Jian Yi, Huo Lin'er, Dragon Girl, Golden Heavenly Maiden... they all successfully walked the path to immortality in the mortal world.

Moreover, many people, such as Li Daoming, the Ruthless Empress, Wu Shi, Ye Fan, etc., have reached the pinnacle of immortality.

But among the many powerful figures who have reached the pinnacle of immortality, who among their peers can rival Li Daoming?

No! Even the ruthless Empress Wu Shi is no exception.

There are also the Ruthless Empress, Wu Shi, and Ye Fan. Although they are not as strong as Ye Yixian, Xia Qinghuang, and many other powerful figures who have also reached the pinnacle of immortality, they are indeed stronger than them.

Dongfang Taiyi, Yang Cheng, Si Qi, Jian Yi, Huo Lin'er... even those who have walked the path to immortality in the mortal world have varying degrees of strength.

Furthermore, even if Li Daoming did not follow the path of immortality in the mortal world, but instead used Yin and Yang to derive myriad paths, and all paths to return to Yin and Yang, and broke through to become a true immortal, he would definitely not be weaker than the Ruthless Empress or Wu Shi among his peers.

But this is only relative, not absolute!
For example, Li Daoming did not walk the path of immortality in the mortal world, nor did he reach the pinnacle of immortality. Even if he had gone far from the pinnacle of immortality, he would not have been weak, but could he have been as strong as he is now?

Definitely not!

In fact, what if Li Daoming had initially practiced the cultivation system of Douluo Continent?

Even if he's incredibly powerful and can master the Douluo Continent system, so what?

Even if you reach the pinnacle of cultivation, you still can't withstand a casual punch from a mere underage child.

Therefore, it is true that what is strong in this world is always human beings, not laws. However, cultivating a more powerful cultivation system and a more powerful law can help people grow stronger faster.

At this moment, many Immortal Kings thought of the powerful individuals who had cultivated secret realms, embarked on the path of immortality in the mortal world, and successfully navigated it, and their hearts couldn't help but warm.

In fact, they had known about the Path of Immortal Transformation in the Mortal World for a long time, but they didn't pay much attention to it at the time.

Because at that time, they were either powerful among the true immortals or immortal kings, and they simply could not embark on the path of transformation into immortals in the mortal world.

Moreover, many cultivators at the pinnacle of humanity in the Boundless Holy Court of the Boundless Sea have also attempted the Path of Immortal Transformation in the Mortal World, but in their view, the results have been mediocre.

Although it can improve the aptitude, comprehension, and potential of cultivators at the pinnacle of human cultivation to some extent, the improvement is not significant.

Moreover, many of the methods for achieving immortal transformation in the mortal world are too difficult for cultivators at the pinnacle of human cultivation.

Their chances of successfully traversing the path of immortal transformation in the mortal world are virtually nonexistent.

Rather than forcing their way through, they figured it would be better to use some clever tricks to achieve immortal transformation in the mortal world, allowing themselves to break through to the half-step True Immortal realm and then descend to the True Immortal Realm to undergo tribulation and become an immortal. However, after arriving in the Boundless Immortal Realm, they realized that the mortal world immortal transformation path, which they thought was almost impossible to traverse, was not the orthodox one.

The authentic method of immortal transformation in the mortal world should involve transformation in the harsh environment of the Dharma-ending Age, rather than in a place rich in immortal matter and teeming with life.

Of course, they also knew that it was not that the Heavenly Emperor did not want to pass on the authentic path of immortal transformation in the mortal world to the cultivators of the Boundless Holy Court in the Boundary Sea, nor that the Heavenly Emperor was unable to create a harsh environment in the end of the Dharma era at the end of the Boundary Sea.

However, those cultivators had such poor aptitude and comprehension that they couldn't even embark on the orthodox path of immortal transformation in the mortal world.

There's absolutely no need to tell them the authentic method of immortal transformation in the mortal world, and even less need to waste energy creating a special environment.

Some might think that those cultivators who can reach the pinnacle of the human path must have poor aptitude and comprehension.

But they don't even look at their training environment or how long they've been training.

They were at the Immortal Alliance at the edge of the Boundary Sea, where there was an incomparably abundant and rich immortal energy, hundreds of Immortal Kings who preached every now and then, and countless scriptures and secret techniques...

Many Immortal Kings rarely leave the edge of the Boundary Sea. They stay in the Immortal Alliance for a considerable period of time, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of years.

With such a good cultivation environment and so much time spent cultivating, they still haven't broken through to the True Immortal realm. Their aptitude is evident. How could they possibly be capable of taking the orthodox path of immortal transformation in the mortal world?
Even the illegitimate ones, let alone the genuine ones, cannot transform themselves in an environment rich in immortal matter.

At most, one can only choose to use shortcuts to undergo several transformations, allowing oneself to break through to the half-step True Immortal realm, and then descend to the True Immortal realm to undergo tribulation and become an immortal.

It is precisely because of this that they do not have a deep understanding of the Mortal World Immortal Transformation Method, and they did not expect that the authentic Mortal World Immortal Transformation Method could make a cultivator's strength foundation so much stronger than that of a strong person of the same level.

Three to four hundred thousand years ago, they obtained the Divine Secret and the blood of Quasi-Immortal Emperors, among other treasures that were of great use to their cultivation.

After cultivating for three or four hundred thousand years, the vast majority of them have advanced one level, while a very small number of them have advanced two or three levels.

But it's almost reached its limit again!
They had originally pinned their hopes on the Boundless Emperor Realm and the Dao-Severing Return to Origin.

He hopes to use the special authority of this world to ignite the world's origin and elevate his own cultivation realm to a higher level.

I hope to break free from the laws of cultivation and start cultivating anew.

If they can cultivate back to their current level after rebuilding, and then unseal their previous Dao Fruits and fuse the two Dao Fruits, they will have a very high chance of breaking through to a higher level.

But now, seeing the performance of powerful individuals who have cultivated secret techniques, embarked on the path to immortality in the mortal world, and even successfully navigated the path to immortality in the mortal world.

They suddenly realized that if they could successfully navigate the mortal realm transformation path and become immortals in the mortal world by severing their cultivation laws and re-cultivating their Dao, they might not even need to merge with their previous Dao fruits. They would have enough aptitude and potential to cultivate to a higher realm.

Even if they can't break through to become an emperor, judging from the performance of those powerful cultivators who have become immortals, breaking through to become an emperor-light immortal king shouldn't be a problem.

With this in mind, many Celestial Kings made up their minds to spend more time comprehending and understanding the path of Celestial Transformation in the Mortal World, and to studying the method of Celestial Transformation in the Mortal World.

Although they will lose their cultivation and Daoist attainments when they rebuild their cultivation, this also includes their understanding of the Mortal Realm before they severed their cultivation and Daoist attainments.

But it's always good to learn more and gain more insights! Perhaps it will be helpful for them on their future journey through the mortal world and on the path to immortality.
