Asura Mad Emperor

"Buzz!"

A green Life Spirit Pearl appeared above Qinchuan's head.

As if sensing the continual ebbing of Qinchuan's life force, the Life Spirit Pearl's glow became even more radiant. Strands of green light fell from the void, sprinkling over Qinchuan's body.

"Such a rich essence of life."

"Indeed, within this essence of life, there is also contained a brand-new Law of Life!"

After his recent enlightenment, though Qinchuan had not been able to master the Dao of Death, he had gained a preliminary understanding of the unknown Immortal Path.

At the very least, he could now see that within the gray and green Qi, there laid Laws, those full of vitality.

The green essence of life cascaded onto Qinchuan's physical body, the rich vitality enveloping his body, gentle and soothing.

What was once a body rapidly succumbing to death was suddenly brimming with vigor.

His body began to recover gradually, as if time were flowing in reverse, resembling the revival of withered wood. His wrinkled skin once again shone with a clear radiance.

His headful of silver hair also turned black once more.

But not long after, that sense of impending death came over him again, and his physical body started to crack and split anew.

This time, however, he could clearly feel that while one part of his body was dying, another part was ceaselessly regenerating.

"These two Laws are using my body as their battlefield, vying for dominance!"

Qinchuan suddenly understood.

Death and life are inherently opposing existences, just like water and fire, they cannot coexist.

His body went through cycles of dying and being reborn, chunks of flesh falling away like withered wood, while new flesh grew in its place.

"This is the perfect opportunity to comprehend these two Laws!"

Moved by the thought, Qinchuan was soon seen sitting cross-legged, entering into a mysterious state.

His body shone with light, his four Innate Organs operating at their apex, with Runes revolving around him.

Especially his Innate Viscera and Emperor Soul, which at this moment were emitting blinding brilliance, casting thousands upon thousands of divine rays, just like a miniature sun.

In the struggle between life and death, the two extreme and opposing Laws entwined, and inexplicable mysteries that Qinchuan could not comprehend evolved and combated within him.

Qinchuan pondered deeply. This was a novel path, unheard of in the history of the Cultivation World, even throughout the recorded history of cultivation.

Upon hearing the Dao, Qinchuan sensed the evolution of these two mysteries and came to an understanding.

"Since the beginning of Kaitian, the Divine Wilderness Continent was shattered by the four great races, transforming into the Myriad Heavens and Worlds. Beyond the outer realms of the heavens lies the endless chaos. But what exists outside the chaos?"

"The myriad stars in the sky are separate from this world, existing outside the realm of chaos.

Although we can borrow the power of the stars through divine skills and methods, from ancient times till now, no one has ever plucked the stars from the heavens.

And what kind of place lies within the reach of the stars?

Outside this Great Domain, could there possibly be an even vaster world?!"

"If there are indeed broader territories, then they must hold even more powerful Daos!"

Qinchuan's thoughts flowed like water; he was continuously realizing and, as if experiencing an epiphany, fell into an enlightened state, starting to have a moment of profound understanding.

He witnessed the conflict between life and death, gaining a fresh perspective.

His Soul at this moment underwent an earth-shattering transformation.

Originally, the Emperor Soul was in between sleep and awakening, violently disrupted by the reawakening of the Ghost Emperor's will. At this moment, the Emperor Soul completed its yet unfinished awakening.

Not only that, within his sea of consciousness, the originally crimson Emperor Soul was now unexpectedly beginning to emit strands of golden divine light.

The physical body, entangled by the Dao Magic of life and death, was permeated by gray and green qi into his bones and spinal marrow, continuously fracturing and rebirthing.

The pleasure of enlightenment and the agony of the transformation of the physical body occurred simultaneously.

At the same time, within this Death Domain, the suppression of the Four Aspects Law had long since ceased to be effective, and the aura on his body was rapidly increasing.

His cultivation level, originally at the Holy Realm Early Stage, now effortlessly broke through to the Holy Realm Late Stage under the comprehensive enhancement of the physical body and soul, and it was still climbing.

"Great Saint Realm Early Stage, reached!"

Qinchuan had just broken through to the Saint Realm barely half a year ago, but now, having come into contact with these two entirely new daos, he once again crossed a major realm, stepping directly from the Holy Realm Early Stage into the Great Saint Realm.

Unsure of how much time had passed, Qinchuan felt the gray and green qi gradually become calm and tranquil, no longer attacking and opposing each other.

"Hmm? It actually stopped."

Qinchuan muttered to himself, as the two types of qi realized they couldn't overcome each other.

The mutual combat between the two daos was the perfect opportunity for his sudden realization, but now that the two daos were no longer continuing, his moment of enlightenment was abruptly interrupted.

"What a pity, I now have only a rudimentary understanding of the Dao of life and death, I can't even consider it a basic mastery, otherwise my soul and realm would have undergone an astonishing transformation."

As the two daos came to a halt, Qinchuan stopped, no longer proceeding.

Although he had only a superficial understanding of the Dao of life and death, this experience had already brought him significant gains.

His physical body, after being tempered by the two daos, became many times stronger; the four innate organs were incredibly pure.

And that Supreme God Soul within him, amidst the sanguine hue, began to flow with a strand of golden light.

At that moment, Qinchuan took the Life Spirit Pearl into the Dao Lotus space.

Indeed, now, even without the Life Spirit Pearl, as the Death Domain shrouded over Qinchuan's head, he no longer felt the threat of death.

"It seems I've temporarily gained the recognition of this Spiritual Pearl!"

Qinchuan whispered to himself.

"Little Chi Yue, come!"

Qinchuan stood up and called softly again.

This time, the Chi Yue Spear did not resist; it obediently flew into his hand, and the spear handle emitted a series of deep sounds.

"Boom!"

An earth-shattering roar erupted from not far away.

During the time Qinchuan had entered the Death Domain space, the Ghost Emperor had completely liberated himself.

Qinchuan looked around and saw that the palace had become ruins, the white barrier that had enveloped it was now totally undone, and the terrifying will of the Ghost Emperor spread out in all directions, crushing numerous demon beasts on the spot.

"Puh, puh, puh"

The will of the Ghost Emperor surged wildly in every direction, and a large swath of the surrounding demon beasts died.

Initially, Qinchuan had expended a great deal of strength to carve out a blood path from the demon beast horde.

But now, under the crushing power of the Ghost Emperor's will, a massive swarm of demon beasts instantly turned into a blood mist.

And this was not even an offensive tactic of the Ghost Emperor's will; it was merely the power that had manifested from the ghost qi released during his emergence.

His strength was enough to showcase how terrifying he was.

In the center of the palace ruins, not far from the Death Domain, a ghostly figure of the Ghost Emperor had already taken shape.

"Roar!"

This was a spiritual form formed from the will of the Ancient Ghost King and the methods of the Ghost Race, completely dark in color.

He had no real consciousness, only slaughter, and at this moment, he went berserk, his violent energy surging and crushing everything in sight to dust.
