Simultaneous Transmigration: Inheriting the Legacy of Myriad Worlds

Chapter 254 Return to the Eastern Wilderness
After obtaining the "Soldier's Secret," Qin Sheng and his companion left the Qin Clan, released the two Qin Clan disciples, and began to wander around the Qinling Mountains.

This place possesses an unparalleled dragon vein, endless rare treasures, and dazzling splendor.

"I remember there is a sacred jade in the Qinling Mountains that has become sentient, with power comparable to an emperor, or even a living fossil," Qin Sheng thought to himself.

The Spirit Jade and the Spirit Jade Saint are two different concepts. The former is equivalent to a type of demon race, which requires slow cultivation and has a limited lifespan.

The Holy Spirit is different; as long as it is still in the process of being conceived, its consciousness can exist for hundreds of thousands, or even millions of years.

Qin Sheng wanted to see if he could find the Spirit Jade.

"We have already obtained five of the Nine Secrets. I wonder if we have any hope of collecting all nine in this lifetime." Ye Fan said with longing.

"It is said that this is a secret technique that originated in the Eastern Wilderness. Over an untraceable period of time, it was dismantled and scattered. If we can gather them together, it can be considered as finding a lost treasure of civilization in the Eastern Wilderness."

They are still missing the four secrets: the one who is skilled in mathematics, the one who is skilled in grouping, and the one who is

Qin Sheng knew the whereabouts of some of them, such as Zhe Zimi; others, however, he had no clue about.

“Before we attain enlightenment, it will be very difficult to gather all nine secrets. Some of the nine secrets have been lost on the surface and can only be found with supreme power,” Qin Sheng shook his head.

The nine secrets combined can lead to immortality.

If all nine secrets could be gathered, it would definitely be one of the strongest secret techniques before the arrival of the Immortal Era.

Unfortunately, that's too difficult.

Unless the Emperor appears in someone's dream tomorrow, there is no hope for the time being.

"Oh, that's a real shame," Ye Fan sighed.

"I don't know who created the Nine Secrets, but I feel that they are more powerful and practical than many forbidden secret techniques of the Great Emperors."

"The Nine Secrets were passed down from the ancient times, and also existed in the primordial era. Their origins can be traced back to the mythological age," Qin Sheng said.
“In the ancient times there were emperors, in the primordial era there were sovereigns, and those who attained enlightenment in the mythological era were called Heavenly Venerables. The Nine Secrets originated from the nine Heavenly Venerables.”

"Tianzun?"

Even just hearing the address, Ye Fan sensed immense power from it, and he asked curiously:
"Was the Mythological Era only home to the Nine Heavenly Venerables?"

“It’s far more than that,” Qin Sheng shook his head.

"But that period of history is too distant, and the names of the other Celestial Venerables have been lost to history, making it difficult for later generations to know. The Nine Secret Celestial Venerables have become the representatives of the mythological era."

“Then they must be stronger than the other Celestial Venerables.” Ye Fan nodded.

Master Ye is quite knowledgeable now; he knows that even emperors have varying degrees of strength.

Ruthless characters like Wushi and Ruthless Man are beyond the reach of other Great Emperors.

"If I can create a secret technique like the Nine Secrets in my lifetime, and it is still passed down in the world after the change of times, so that future generations will remember my name, then my life will not have been in vain."

Ye Fan's ideal at this moment was somewhat simple, although for a normal person, this was already an immense honor.

But for Master Ye, it really is a small goal.

"It's definitely possible." Qin Sheng encouraged Ye Fan, while inwardly sighing.

"Sister, you have really caused me a lot of trouble. Why didn't you pass on all your secret techniques?"

The ruthless man also created nine secret techniques to rival the Nine Secrets, and was in no way inferior to the Nine Heavenly Venerables. However, the problem is that not all of the ruthless man's "Nine Secrets" have been passed down.

Firstly, because the Ruthless lineage had suffered a near-total annihilation, and secondly, because of the Ruthless himself.

One lifetime of Devouring Heaven, one lifetime of Immortality, one lifetime as the Heavenly Emperor of the Southern Ridge—these three visible lifetimes saw the ruthless man create many secret techniques.

However, ruthless people are not the type to care about their legacy.

She left some secret techniques in her ancient scriptures, and those who obtained them later naturally learned them as well.

But sometimes, when she had a sudden burst of inspiration and created a new secret technique, she might just casually inscribe it somewhere without summarizing or compiling it into her own scriptures.

The ruthless lineage of Yao Guang did not possess the Southern Ridge Heavenly Emperor's secret technique—the Three Thousand Small Worlds—obtained by the Demon Emperor's Palace.

Secret techniques? Legacy?
So be it if it's lost. Da Nannan doesn't care. If you want it, you can go to the Forbidden Land of the Ancient Wilderness to find her. Not only can you get the secret technique, but you can also be granted immortality.

Three days later, Qin Sheng still hadn't found the Spirit Jade when he received an urgent message from Yao Xi.

"Let's go back to Qishi Mansion first," Qin Sheng said.

“Okay, I’ve been out for several months now anyway.” Ye Fan had no objections.

Qin Sheng took out the Xuan Yu Platform, traversed the void several times, and arrived at Yao Xi's side.

"Why did you use holy land methods to contact me? What happened?"

Yao Xi explained, "A message came from the Holy Land, asking you to return, Holy Son. It seems to be related to the God King."

Jiang Taixu?
Qin Sheng was greatly surprised, never expecting to be involved with the God King.

"Okay, I'll go back and take a look." Qin Sheng nodded and looked at Ye Fan.

Are you going back to the Eastern Wilderness?

"The Central Plains is more suitable for my cultivation now, so I don't plan to go back for the time being," Ye Fan refused.

After returning to the Eastern Wilderness, he couldn't find any dragon marrow to cultivate with. Although he was chased and killed in the Central Continent, those people were actually indirectly providing Ye Fan with resources.

Furthermore, if Jiang Taixu's matter were related to Ye Fan, he would definitely have mentioned him directly. Since he only asked Qin Sheng to go back, there was no need for him to make the trip.

"Alright."

Qin Sheng did not interfere with Ye Fan's choice, but he did offer a word of advice.

"I must be more careful when I travel through the Central Plains. I don't want to hear the news of the Holy Body's death while I'm in the Eastern Wilderness."

Ye Fan: "...You're underestimating people too much."

Master Ye felt humiliated, and he said in a loud voice:
"It won't be long before I guarantee I'll surprise you and amaze everyone!"

"I will definitely make a name for myself in Zhongzhou, or I will never return to the Eastern Wilderness!"

"He has the air of Emperor Hengyu." Qin Sheng nodded.

Yao Xi burst out laughing.

After Emperor Hengyu left for the Central Plains, he never returned to the Eastern Wilderness for the rest of his life.

Qin Sheng informed the higher-ups of the Qishi Mansion, and then, using the domain gate within the mansion, left with Xiao Nannan.

Eastern Wilderness, I'm back!
……

Southern Region of the Eastern Wilderness.

Breathing the air of the Eastern Wilderness once again, Qin Sheng couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic.

This is the king's homeland!

When Qin Sheng set foot on the Yao Guang Holy Land again, the eyes of many Supreme Elders and Great Powers turned to him.

"The Holy Son has returned."

"He's getting stronger and stronger. When the Holy Son left, he had just survived the Great Tribulation, and now he's already at the mid-stage of the Great Power realm. It's unbelievably fast."

"It seems that the Jiang family's God King had something to ask the Holy Son, so he specially invited him back."

“A sage has come to seek me out; I wonder what important matter it must be.”

"..."

Qin Sheng went to the Holy Lord Yao Guang, but he didn't see Jiang Taixu. Instead, he saw Fairy Caiyun there.

After exchanging greetings, Fairy Caiyun said with a somewhat somber expression:
"I also need you to come with me to the Jiang family. Brother Taixu has something he wants to tell you."

Seeing the expression on Fairy Caiyun's face, Qin Sheng was puzzled. It didn't look like a good thing.

"Okay, let's go now."

"Brother Taixu originally wanted to go to Zhongzhou to see you in person, but I persuaded him against it," said Fairy Caiyun.
"He is at a critical juncture, and the situation is not good."

"Sister Caiyun, no matter what happens, don't be afraid." The little girl held Caiyun Fairy's hand, the little one was very considerate.

"Nannan is with you!"

Fairy Caiyun smiled faintly and picked up the little girl. After arriving at the Jiang family, the three of them traveled without hindrance to a divine island deep within the island. There, Qin Sheng met Jiang Taixu and was somewhat surprised.

Since his recovery, Jiang Taixu has been incredibly handsome and full of vitality. Although he still looks young, he now has a full head of dry, white hair.

"What's wrong with you?"

"This is the effect of the transformation, don't panic." Jiang Taixu shook his head.

"The Divine King Body used to be an aid, but after it reached its peak, it became an obstacle. You know, I have been seeking the most fundamental transformation."

Qin Sheng nodded; he was naturally aware of this.

In the original story, while Jiang Taixu's talent and comprehension were indispensable to his later cultivation to that level, his experience of severing everything after leaving Zishan was equally important.

It could even be said that without that transformative rebirth, a metamorphosis that reshaped his very essence, Jiang Taixu's future would not have been so amazing.

His resurrection from the dead, his transformation from a cocoon to a butterfly, truly broke free from all constraints and shackles, no longer bound by any innate physique or talent.

After emerging from Purple Mountain, the God King reached the Saint King level in just over ten years at the All Races Assembly, even faster than Ye Fan, a feat that defied the heavens.

The significance of that rebirth for Jiang Taixu was, by analogy, equivalent to a ruthless person shedding their demonic body and giving birth to a divine embryo.

"Several years have passed since I began my transformation," Jiang Taixu sighed.

“I gained something, but I never achieved complete success. Looking back now, perhaps I really should have died back then.”

Qin Sheng understood Jiang Taixu's situation somewhat. "You mean, because some things weren't completely eradicated, the transformation couldn't complete the final step?"

"Yes, sometimes you can survive by putting yourself in a desperate situation. I'm just one step away from survival."

What Jiang Taixu did was somewhat similar to Ye Fan's future transformation from a sacred body to a mortal body.

This is not a weakening, but a super enhancement. The essence of physique is meaningless to the current God King and the future Emperor Ye.

Returning to the mundane world represents a return to one's true nature, allowing for a kind of divine sublimation.

However, the fact that the Heavenly Emperor Ye Fan could do it with little effort does not mean that it was simple.

Ye Fan still thinks that with the Holy Body fully developed, suppressing the Great Emperor will be a piece of cake. Ask other people with fully developed Holy Bodies if they think the same way.

"Because of my appearance, the God King did not experience the inevitable calamity of death or the pain of losing his partner, nor did he exhaust his source to wash away the innate Dao diagram for Ye Fan."

Qin Sheng thought to himself, "From the perspective of life, the God King has no regrets, but in terms of the Great Dao and the origin, he has also been troubled."

However, if Jiang Taixu were to choose his own life, he would undoubtedly choose his current life without hesitation.

“For a God-King like you to complete a transformation at your level, it’s not something that can be done overnight. I don’t think there’s any need to rush,” Qin Sheng said.

“I understand my own situation. If I don’t give up everything, that slight difference will become an insurmountable chasm,” Jiang Taixu said calmly.

"So what do you want to do?" Qin Sheng asked.

"I want to baptize the rainbow with the blood of the gods, to play the prelude to the gods, to help her, and to help myself."

“Brother Taixu…” Fairy Caiyun, who had been silent all along, grasped the God King’s hand.

Qin Sheng remained silent, moved by the affection between the God King and Fairy Caiyun.

Divine blood is the foundation of the Divine King's body, the very origin of origins. It can even purify the four extreme curses of the Holy Body, a miraculous power that ordinary saints do not possess.

The prelude to God, on the other hand, is a manifestation of one's own state of mind, an understanding of the Tao, and a perception of the mortal world, representing a spiritual realm.

According to legend, if one can play a complete divine melody, it means that one has opened the path to the gods.

The prelude to God can be used not only for oneself, but also to help others.

Without a doubt, Jiang Taixu did this to help Fairy Caiyun achieve her goal.

"Are you afraid that her lifespan won't last until the world is restored?" Qin Sheng asked.

Jiang Taixu shook his head, "My perception of the changes in heaven and earth is becoming clearer. Caiyun can live for more than ten years, and should be able to live until that day."

"But her condition will be very poor at that time, which may affect her breakthrough."

The closer a cultivator is to their death, the more severely their physical body, blood and qi, primordial spirit and consciousness will deteriorate.

Even a quasi-emperor like Gai Jiuyou won't be able to maintain his peak condition indefinitely anymore.

Severing the Dao requires undergoing tribulation. Having ten years of lifespan and having only one year to undergo tribulation are completely different concepts; the latter almost certainly results in death.

Jiang Taixu's concerns were quite reasonable. Moreover, it would be even more unacceptable if something were to happen to Fairy Caiyun while they were waiting for the world to recover.

The older people get, the less they can withstand stress; even a small problem can shorten their already limited lifespan.

"Since you, God-King, have made your decision, I won't say anything more."

Qin Sheng asked in confusion, "Then what does the God King want with me?"

Surely you can't expect me to come back and witness your love story, right?

That's bad.

Jiang Taixu smiled and said, "I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

"God King, please speak."

“I saw some records in the clan’s ancient books that after the Great Emperor passed away, the suppression of the Great Dao was most severe in the place where he died.”

Jiang Taixu: "After leaving this place, the suppression of the Great Dao will lessen as the distance increases. Cultivating on other ancient life stars will be a little easier than on the Big Dipper."

"After I baptize the colorful clouds with the blood of the gods and play the prelude to the gods, I want to send her to the ancestral star of the Jiang family."

Jiang Taixu explained his plans.

“You’ve inquired about other ancient life-bearing stars before, and I can tell that you’re very interested in things beyond the Big Dipper. So, I’d like to ask you to accompany Caiyun to the Ziwei Ancient Star.”

Qin Sheng understood; it turned out that he wanted Fairy Caiyun to try to break through on other ancient stars in order to avoid the sharp edge of the Azure Emperor.

Ziwei Ancient Star, being unfamiliar with the place and its people, and given Caiyun Fairy's condition, she certainly needed someone to accompany her.

Once she gets into a fight with someone and depletes her vital energy, she will be one step closer to death.

With Qin Sheng's strength, it would be absolutely safe for him to go to Ziwei with Fairy Caiyun.

The Jiang family...

If their hidden strength isn't unleashed, the current experts of the Jiang family are no match for Qin Sheng. They can't possibly send a living fossil with depleted energy along, can they? Who would protect whom then?

"Okay, I'd like to go there and take a look too." Qin Sheng nodded in agreement.

There is a secret of the word "Zhe" there, and an elixir of immortality. Ziwei, you're good! Ziwei must go.

“I will also baptize you with the blood of the gods, just as the Prelude to Godhood is,” Jiang Taixu said, wanting to reward Qin Sheng.

Qin Sheng smiled and shook his head, "I don't need your divine blood. Just let me experience it when you play the Divine Prelude."

They're a loving couple, and it would be such a spoilsport if I were to step in and take away a portion of their divine blood.

"Big brother, can I come with you?" Little Nannan asked.

Ye Fan couldn't take her with him, and Xiao Nannan didn't want to be separated from her other brother again.

"of course can."

Jiang Taixu and the others did not refuse. As for the Starry Sky Domain Gate, there was no difference between sending two people and sending three people.

"Then when do we set off?"

Qin Sheng had already begun to look forward to Ziwei.

There are no rivals among the younger generation of Beidou, and there is no king here. Qin Sheng has been lonely for too long.

It's time to visit other ancient planets and see what level the locals are at.

Why don't you cultivators of Ziwei use imperial weapons?
Don't you want to use it?
If you're not using it, then I'm going to use it. Any objections?

Go tell my Devouring Demon Cover.
