Come On, Son! You Got to Breakthrough Now!

In the Lower Realm, the Great Emperor is a legend, a pinnacle of power, but in the vast and resource-rich Endless Immortal Domain, although breaking through to the Emperor Realm is still not easy, it is far from being almost impossible like in the Lower Realm.

Furthermore, the news of Gu Qingfeng's lecture has spread widely, affecting over a billion Immortal Domains, causing an unprecedented sensation.

Even if on average, only a hundred Great Emperors come from each Immortal Domain, the total number is still an astonishing figure.

A hundred billion!

From this, it can be seen how vast the crowd of cultivators is who have come to listen to the lecture or pay attention to it.

The root of it lies in that rarely do powerful figures like Gu Qingfeng, standing at the peak of Heavenly Venerate, give public lectures.

For countless cultivators stuck in the Emperor Realm, unable to prove the Path of Longevity, no matter how extraordinary their talent, after ten thousand years, they will ultimately turn to dust, decaying alongside grass and trees.

Now, having the chance to listen to such a strong individual explain the Path of Longevity, even if they gain just a bit of insight or find a breakthrough opportunity, it is worth any cost to attend.

Currently, Gu Qingfeng is starting his lecture from the basics of Body Refinement and Qi Sea Realm.

These realms are ones that all the Great Emperors and Heavenly Venerates present have personally traversed and believe they have thoroughly understood, well-acquainted in their minds.

However, as Gu Qingfeng explains these foundations in a deep yet approachable manner, many cultivators are startled to realize they have acquired a completely new and different understanding and comprehension of these realms they had already mastered.

Many cultivators listen, entranced, at times frowning in deep thought, as if re-examining their own foundation.

Sometimes their expressions turned joyous, faces filled with ecstasy, clearly solving a long-standing puzzle in their cultivation, or understanding a new method of application through analogy.

"Marvelous! Truly marvelous beyond words!"

In one section of the dojo constructed of ancient bluestone, an elder Heavenly Venerate with white hair and beard, his aura deep as the sea, couldn't help but clap with praise, his face full of the joy of discovery.

"To regard the fleshy body as a newly opened Chaos, to see the network of veins and flesh as intersecting star river trajectories, and to liken the surging qi blood power to Innate Immortal Qi that nourishes all things.

Such insights, grand and lofty, strike directly at the essence!

It turns out that even foundational realms can contain such profound truths of Chaos; I have been viewing the sky from the bottom of a well."

The other ancient Heavenly Venerates around him also nodded frequently, deeply agreeing.

The same path of initial cultivation, but the understanding is far different depending on the height one stands at.

Gu Qingfeng, with a perspective close to the Tao, reinterprets the foundation, making even those who have long ascended to Heavenly Venerate Realm feel greatly benefited, as if they have polished their foundation once more.

On the other side.

The lecture continues, orderly and methodically.

Gu Qingfeng spent a full thousand years meticulously explaining the path of Body Refinement.

Then he used another thousand years to deeply expound the mysteries of the Saint's path.

Then another thousand years to explain the essence of the Great Emperor's path.

During these three thousand years, the content of his lecture, though not directly covering the secrets of Longevity, laid the most solid and perfect foundation for the Path of Longevity, which can be described as the universal truth and best path of the Path of Longevity.

As the three thousand years concluded, Gu Qingfeng paused slightly, and the atmosphere of the entire Chaos Dojo suddenly became more solemn and grave.

All cultivators held their breath because they knew the main event was about to begin.

They saw the grand river of the Great Tao behind Gu Qingfeng suddenly transform, morphing into the image of a murky, profound, and ceaselessly flowing Netherworld River.

And then.

The ancient Underworld's image rose slowly from behind him, reflecting upon the heavens.

At this moment, not only the cultivators attending the lecture.

Even in the Endless Immortal Domain, many cultivators who were unable to come seemed to see the scene of the Netherworld through the void, albeit faintly.

...

In the Ziwei Immortal Court, within the Supreme Emperor Palace.

Emperor Ziwei stood with his hands clasped behind his back before the Observatory Platform, his gaze long since penetrating the barrier of endless time and space, observing everything within the Chaos Dojo, including the manifesting Netherworld Path and Underworld image, clearly visible to his eyes.

A trace of imperceptible surprise flickered through his eyes, as deep as a star abyss, but was soon replaced by understanding and a hint of gravity.

"Netherworld Path, True Intent of Reincarnation… such a complete and clear manifestation of the Underworld Dao Rhythm indicates that the legacy this young one obtained from the Underworld surpasses my previous expectations."

He murmured softly, only audible to himself.

From the moment Gu Qingfeng first exhibited the Power of Yellow Springs and slaughtered an Evil God, Emperor Ziwei already understood that the other party must have obtained some kind of legacy from the Ancient Underworld.

After all, the Underworld is ancient, vast, and unfathomably deep.

Throughout the Endless Immortal Domain's historical river, there have been extremely rare occurrences of individuals with extraordinary Qi Fortune, who have managed to acquire portions of the Underworld's legacy.

In this regard, Gu Qingfeng is not the only one.

However—

At this moment, witnessing the Underworld image manifested during Gu Qingfeng's lecture and the pure, powerful aura of the Netherworld Path, made Emperor Ziwei truly realize that the legacy Gu Qingfeng received from the Underworld is absolutely extraordinary.

Such a legacy is far from comparable to those scattered fragmentary inheritances.

Nonetheless.

The surprise in Emperor Ziwei's eyes quickly dissipated.

In his view, for Gu Qingfeng to receive such a great opportunity is due to his Qi Fortune and is also a blessing for the entire Human Clan.

This signifies that in the future, the Human Clan will give birth to another top Immortal.

Meanwhile.

From various parts of the Endless Immortal Domain.

Many beings, aspiring for immortality, are now paying attention.

After all, the tumult caused by Gu Qingfeng in the Endless Immortal Domain over the years has been too significant; first, he countered the Divine Lord as a Heavenly Venerate, and then he incited Emperor Ziwei to personally invade the Immortal Divine Country, suppressing an Immortal God Master.

This series of events is hard not to attract the attention of these Supreme Beings.

Normally.

A Heavenly Venerate, regardless of how unparalleled their combat power and talent, would have difficulty attracting the attention of Immortals.

At the Immortal level, their focus has long surpassed the mundane, with the sole aim being to overcome the Immortal Divine Tribulation and ultimately reach that elusive realm of transcendence.

Although throughout history, no one attempting transcendence has truly succeeded; all who tried eventually turned to tribulation ash, rendering the Tribulation of Transcendence almost synonymous with death.

But once reaching the Immortal level, the ultimate pursuit is only transcendence.

Without such ambition, why risk entering the Immortal Realm and facing those terrifying Divine Tribulations that can cause Immortals to bleed?

If one only seeks to survive, eternally remaining in the relatively safe Heavenly Venerate Realm is a wiser choice.

Therefore, events and beings below the Immortal level rarely hold their long-term interest.

But Gu Qingfeng is clearly an exception.

When the vast aura of the Netherworld Path permeates through Chaos, when that ancient and majestic Underworld image clearly reflects across the heavens, numerous ancient Immortals hidden in the depths of time and space, at the end of the Great Tao, have traces of slight, imperceptible ripples across their indifferent faces, their eyes taking on a subtle shift.

"The Netherworld Path re-emerges in the world... and with such a complete and powerful Dao lineage aura!"

"Such Dao Rhythm... could it be that within our Human Clan's territory, a Supreme Being comparable to the Ancient Ten Halls Yama is about to emerge?"

An old Immortal mused silently, this thought sprouting in his mind, even making him feel a tinge of absurdity, which he quickly suppressed.

The Ten Halls Yama!

They are beings more ancient than many Immortals.

Many present-day Heavenly Venerates and even Immortals in the Endless Immortal Domain were born long after the era when the Ten Halls Yama were active, knowing little about that period of history.

Such powerful figures nearly stood at the pinnacle of Chaos, overlooking eternal reincarnation.

But to reach such a level is easier said than done.

Among them, it's by no means enough to merely obtain an Underworld legacy in one leap.

"Let's wait and see... this young one, perhaps truly capable of bringing about some different variables."

Eventually, these Immortal beings all withdrew their attention, but each left behind a wisp of divine thought, secretly observing Gu Qingfeng's lecture, wishing to see what made this Netherworld Path different.
