I am the first emperor of the ancient times

Chapter 179 How could you possibly comprehend this?
"Senior, did he really succeed? How did he do it?" Cang Di murmured to himself.

Looking at the person in front of him, his heart was filled with turbulent emotions.

When did comprehending the Immortal Emperor's scriptures become so easy?

If it were them, they would have to make a sacrifice every once in a while if they wanted to comprehend the Immortal Emperor's scriptures.

And now, the person before me has neither sacrificed a massive amount of pure power nor been corrupted by the dark origin, yet he is still able to comprehend the Immortal Emperor's scriptures.

He really didn't want to believe it, but the person in front of him not only could easily comprehend it, but even gained a great deal from it.

It should be noted that this person's strength was originally incredibly powerful; even if the four emperors joined forces, they would be unable to defeat him.

Now, this person has made another breakthrough, and he can hardly imagine what level this person's strength has reached.

He even suspected that if this person attacked again, even if the four of them joined forces, they might still be killed.

“I don’t know either. I’m more curious about why this person wasn’t corrupted by darkness!” the Old Man of Annihilation replied.

Even though he was the most senior among the four emperors, he could not understand what was happening before his eyes.

Just as he said, he was very curious as to why the person in front of him was not corrupted by the dark source.

For countless ages, in order to obtain the Immortal Emperor's Scripture, they have brought massive amounts of pure power here several times to refine the darkness in order to acquire it.

Even so, they could not avoid being corrupted by the source of darkness, gradually turning into darkness.

He had been contemplating this for many years, and had been corrupted by the source of darkness for just as long, until he was forced to dismember himself.

Otherwise, the constant encroachment of darkness would prevent him from continuing to comprehend, let alone remain clear-headed.

Besides that, he was even more curious about why the person in front of him could continuously gain insights.

Even if they sacrificed living beings and used a vast amount of pure power to refine the darkness, they dared not persist in their enlightenment for long.

Therefore, they could only choose to sleep, to rest, and to wait for the next era to arrive.

In his view, if they could understand the reason, they would have a greater chance of reaching the Immortal Emperor realm.

At this moment, he desperately wanted to know everything, but even though the person in front of him was sitting there cross-legged, he had no intention of making a move.

Everything was due to the strength of the person in front of them. Before this, the four of them working together were no match for him.

Now that this person has improved his strength, even if they forcefully take action, they will only humiliate themselves.

At the same time, Ying Hao was constantly reflecting on his path, using the Immortal Emperor's scriptures as a reference.

On this day, Ying Hao's body trembled, finally ending his comprehension, and he slowly opened his eyes.

His whole body glowed, his aura of the Great Dao surged, and the gates within his body were opened one after another.

In the end, he appeared and disappeared, as if he had vanished from the spot, appearing mysterious and unpredictable from afar.

This time, with the help of those Immortal Emperor scriptures, he saw the Immortal Emperor's path to becoming an Immortal Emperor, and he also saw the essence of this path.

In fact, he has always been on a path of self-realization, opening one "door" after another, and constantly exploring his own potential.

However, this path is actually the "using one's own body as a seed" method created by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor.

This is precisely why his teachings still bear the imprint of his predecessors; he has not completely transcended them.

His travels through the river of time allowed him to witness the laws performed by the Desolate Heavenly Emperor, giving him a certain understanding of the essence of these laws, but this was still not enough.

The Great Freedom of the Desolate Heavenly Emperor's Transformation Technique is also an innovation among other techniques, including the Original True Explanation of the Corpse Immortal Emperor.

After comprehending the Immortal Emperor's scriptures, he understood the fundamental method of the Corpse Immortal Emperor.

He has a thorough understanding of the fundamentals of this method and has grasped its true origin. Now, he is creating something new from the source and combining it with his supernatural power, Hunyuan True Qi, completely abandoning the traces of his predecessors.

He has created an unparalleled imperial law that is most suited to himself. Of course, this law is only in its infancy and needs further improvement.

Moreover, his gains this time were not limited to this.

While deducing the prototype of the Peerless Emperor's Law, his cultivation also improved.

Before this, even though he was able to fight against the four emperors led by the Old Man of Annihilation, he had only just broken through to the Quasi-Immortal Emperor realm.

Now, his cultivation has completely stabilized at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level.

At the same time, because he has already grasped the prototype of the Peerless Emperor's Law, his future path will be smoother.

According to his guess, reaching the peak of the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level is just a matter of time.

As for the Immortal Emperor realm, as long as the Peerless Emperor Law is perfected, all of this will be no problem.

Upon seeing Ying Hao awaken, the four emperors, led by the Old Man of Annihilation, were shocked and looked at Ying Hao in disbelief.

"Why weren't you corrupted by the darkness? How did you manage that?" the Old Man of Destruction asked in a trembling voice.

Before the person in front of them wakes up, they will still have doubts about everything.

But now, having witnessed the person before them awaken and felt their mysterious and unpredictable changes, they no longer had any doubts.

They desperately wanted to know the answers to everything, to know the reasons behind everything.

They were absolutely certain that as long as they could figure everything out, they would also have the opportunity to reach a higher level.

However, Ying Hao merely concealed his aura and looked at the four Quasi-Immortal Emperors with disdain.

"Just because you can't do it doesn't mean I can't!" Ying Hao said dismissively.

He had no intention of telling the four emperors the reason. Besides, even if he did tell the four quasi-immortal emperors, what difference would it make? Their fates were already sealed.

No matter how many Immortal Emperor scriptures they refine, it's just imitation; the four Quasi-Immortal Emperors have absolutely no chance of reaching the Immortal Emperor realm.

The reason he was able to remain unaffected by the source of darkness was naturally due to his supernatural power, the Primordial Chaos True Qi.

The essence of Hunyuan True Qi is the most fundamental and primordial power in the world.

The origin of darkness is formed from strange substances and cannot compare with the Primordial True Qi.

According to his speculation, even primordial matter is inferior to Hunyuan True Qi.

In addition, with the help of the Primordial Chaos True Qi, he had already become one with the Primordial Chaos, forming his own world, and external things could not affect him.

With the two combined, even something as powerful as the strange substance could not corrupt him or affect him at all.

This is also why he was able to remain unaffected by the dark matter and persist in comprehending the Immortal Emperor's scriptures here.

"It's time to go back!" Ying Hao thought to himself.

Now, his magic has been perfected, and the path to the realm of the Immortal Emperor has been opened.

Of course, it's still hard to say when or whether this step will be taken.

This step was far too difficult, trapping countless brilliant quasi-immortal emperors; he had only grasped the rudimentary form.

The Peerless Emperor's Law has begun to take shape, and the three great supernatural powers have also made unexpected progress. Naturally, there is no need for him to stay in this era any longer, and it is time for him to leave.
