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

Chapter 843 Invitation and Doubt
He exchanged methods with Li Daoming for breaking through to the Sacrifice Dao Realm/Half-Step Hunyuan Realm, as well as their respective insights into the Sacrifice Dao Realm/Half-Step Hunyuan Realm.

He only gave Li Daoming the method to break through to the Sacrifice Dao realm, and his own insights into the Sacrifice Dao realm.

But Li Daoming not only gave him the method to break through to the half-step Hunyuan realm, but also his insights into the half-step Hunyuan realm, and the method to break through to the Hunyuan realm.

From this, he also gained some insight, and understood the method to break through the path of sacrifice.

Although the method he realized to break through to the level of sacrificial rites was flawed and could not be used to break through to the level of sacrificial rites.

However, making him aware of the flaws in the path he has taken can also save him from taking many detours, allowing him to explore other methods and paths to break through the path of sacrifice.

Moreover, he had gained Li Daoming's insights into the half-step Hunyuan realm and comprehended a trace of its mysteries. He was also vaguely involved. Li Daoming's cultivation level was likely higher than his, and his insights into the half-step Hunyuan realm were more profound and mysterious than his insights into the Sacrifice Dao realm.

In this exchange, he undoubtedly benefited, and from his own heart, he owed Li Daoming a favor.

"What do you mean by taking advantage? It's just mutual benefit! You've gained something, and I've also benefited a lot!" Li Daoming shook his head slightly and said.

Upon hearing this, the Desolate Emperor did not say anything more, but simply kept it in mind.

Moreover, he did not forget his main purpose and changed the subject, saying, "I came here this time to confirm whether you are from this realm and to teach you the method to break through to the Sacrifice Dao realm, so that you can break through to the Sacrifice Dao realm as soon as possible and join forces with me to fight against the strange dark race, defeat or even destroy the strange dark race."

"But I never expected that you had already broken through to the half-step Hunyuan realm, and your cultivation and strength were no less than mine. The Wuji Sacred Court you founded has also produced many powerful figures."

"If you lead the Boundless Holy Court to join forces with us, your strength will definitely surpass that of the strange and dark race. You will surely be able to defeat or even annihilate the strange and dark race, protect countless living beings, and restore peace to the world."

"I would like to invite you to join forces with us to deal with and annihilate the strange dark race. What do you say?"

"Of course!" Li Daoming agreed without hesitation, but in an instant, his tone changed:
"But I won't make a move now. I need you to hold out for 300,000 years on your own. After 300,000 years, I will lead the Boundless Holy Court into battle."

"Why is that?" the Desolate Emperor asked in bewilderment.

Li Daoming's cultivation and strength are definitely no less than his. Even without considering the thirteen Immortal Emperors of the Boundless Holy Court and the six Immortal Emperors above the heavens, the two of them alone, working together, would be enough to contend against six or seven strange progenitors.

However, the eerie dark race certainly doesn't have that many eerie progenitors; at most, they might still be hiding one or two.

Even if the strange dark race still has ten strange dark immortal emperors and some trump cards, they should not be able to stop the two of them from joining forces.

Therefore, he didn't quite understand why Li Daoming waited 300,000 years before making his move.

Even at this point, if he hadn't had some understanding of Li Daoming's character and knew that he wasn't a selfish and narrow-minded person who would betray principles for personal gain, he wouldn't have been able to achieve such a feat.

He might even be tempted to guess that Li Daoming wanted him to fight three strange progenitors and ten strange dark immortal emperors for 300,000 years, and then reap the benefits once both sides were exhausted.

He fought fiercely with the powerful members of the eerie dark race, but he didn't reveal his full strength, concealing a portion of it. Given the strength he displayed, if he were to fight the powerful members of the eerie dark race for another 300,000 years, while he wouldn't necessarily die, he would certainly be severely weakened and seriously injured.

Subsequently, joining forces with Li Daoming to defeat or even annihilate the strange dark race will inevitably provoke a desperate resistance from them.

His severely injured state will undoubtedly make him a prime target for the sinister dark race, who will fight tooth and nail to kill him in order to reverse their decline.

Given his condition, facing a bizarre and dark race that is willing to reveal all its trump cards at all costs, he may not be able to escape unscathed, and may even die in battle.

If he were to die in battle against all the powerful members of the strange dark race, even if they were immortal, as long as there was a trace of them, they would be resurrected one day, but it would certainly take an extremely long time for them to return.

If, during this period, a person at the Sacrifice Dao Realm or half-step Primordial Chaos Realm were to obstruct their return, their chances of resurrection would likely be extremely slim.

However, he believed that Li Daoming was not a greedy, selfish, or narrow-minded person, and certainly did not intend to reap the benefits without contributing anything.

If Li Daoming were that kind of person, intending to reap the benefits without lifting a finger, then he wouldn't have shared his insights on the half-step Hunyuan/Sacrificial Dao realm with Li Daoming, who had previously exchanged methods for breaking through to the half-step Hunyuan/Sacrificial Dao realm. He wouldn't have even passed on methods for breaking through to the Hunyuan realm that weren't part of the exchange. That would have been tantamount to aiding the enemy.

Most importantly, given the strength and future prospects of Li Daoming and the Wuji Holy Court, there is absolutely no need for them to reap the benefits without contributing anything in return.

If they join forces to defeat and destroy the strange dark race, then there will only be so many powerful beings left in the heavens and the universe.

Li Daoming's cultivation level is definitely no less than his, and may even be slightly higher. The Wuji Holy Court also has thirteen Immortal Emperors, whose cultivation levels are not low and whose strength far surpasses that of the six Immortal Emperors above the heavens.

Even though the Quasi-Immortal Emperors and True Immortal Kings below the Immortal Emperor level in the Boundless Holy Court are not as powerful as those above the Heavenly Realm, for the strong at the Immortal Emperor level, no matter how many Quasi-Immortal Emperors and True Immortal Kings there are, it will not change the course of the battle.

Furthermore, even after the destruction of the mysterious dark race, Li Daoming and the Wuji Holy Court remained a unified force, completely subservient to Li Daoming.

However, he and the six Celestial Emperors above Heaven are not from the same faction.

He and many elders of the Heavenly Court also came from this world. Li Daoming and many powerful figures of the Boundless Holy Court practiced the secret realm method he created. Ye Fan and the Ruthless Empress once crossed the river of time to rescue him. He owed Li Daoming a favor before, and the two had a good relationship.

Not all of the six Celestial Emperors above Heaven are fond of power and have ambitions to rule over Heaven and all the heavens of the universe.

As long as Li Daoming remains true to his original aspirations and does not act against the will of Heaven and the heavens, incurring the wrath of Heaven and the resentment of the people, neither he nor some of the Celestial Emperors above Heaven will mind and will acknowledge the rule of the Boundless Holy Court over Heaven and the heavens.

Therefore, after the destruction of the mysterious dark race, the heavens above and all the heavens of the universe will surely regard Li Daoming and the Wuji Holy Court as the most revered, and they will surely be able to rule the heavens above and all the heavens of the universe and command all the spirits of the world.

Furthermore, he has been cultivating for millions of years. Although he has broken through to the realm of sacrificial arts, the road ahead is uncertain. He does not know whether he will be able to break through to the realm of sacrificial arts in the endless years to come.

The six Immortal Emperors above Heaven have been cultivating for at least several eras. Although their cultivation and strength are not yet at their limit, it will certainly take an extremely long time to advance further.
