Chapter 643: Dao Manifestation Realm!
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
Feilian remained silent for a moment before one of the Grade-7 Soul-Nourishing Pills vanished from the jade bottle.A moment later, it appeared within the Soul-Confining Artifact.
Without hesitation, Feilian consumed it.
Boom!
The medicinal energy immediately spread throughout her soul.
A warm sensation enveloped her entire being.
The effect was almost instantaneous.
The soul power that had been weakened and depleted for months rapidly recovered.
Streams of soul power flowed through her damaged soul, nourishing every corner that had previously been exhausted.
For a brief moment, Immortal Emperor Feilian felt as though a dry riverbed had finally received rainfall after a long drought.
Her aura visibly strengthened.
Even Bai Zihan could sense the change.
The previously faint presence within the Soul-Confining Artifact suddenly became much clearer.
"Hm?"
Bai Zihan’s eyes brightened.
"Is it working well?"
Immortal Emperor Feilian nodded.
"It is very effective."
In truth, it was even more effective than she had imagined.
She had seen and taken various kinds of pills throughout her life, but she felt that Bai Zihan’s pills were even better than those she had taken when she was alive.
For a brief moment, Feilian found herself staring at the remaining pills.
A dangerous temptation appeared within her heart.
She wanted another one.
The effects were simply too good.
Unfortunately, she quickly suppressed the thought.
Although the pills could restore her soul, her current condition remained unstable.
Absorbing too much energy too quickly could easily become harmful instead.
Recovery required patience.
Thus, after consuming a single Grade-7 Soul-Nourishing Pill, Immortal Emperor Feilian resisted the temptation and stopped.
(There is no need to rush.)
She thought.
A brief silence followed.
Then Immortal Emperor Feilian spoke again.
"Now,"
Her tone became more serious.
"Let’s return to the matter of what he said. Did he say that the True God’s legacy was in this Empire?"
Bai Zihan nodded.
After hearing Long Haotian’s explanation, countless questions had already formed within his mind.
And if anyone in the world could answer them, it would undoubtedly be this Empress Feilian.
After all, she had once ruled the world as an Immortal Emperor for tens of thousands of years.
If a True God truly existed, surely she would know something.
Bai Zihan immediately asked,
"Do you know what a True God is?"
Within the Soul-Confining Artifact, Immortal Emperor Feilian became quiet.
"No!"
Bai Zihan blinked.
He had not expected that answer.
Bai Zihan frowned slightly.
Even Empress Feilian didn’t know?
"However, while I do not know what a True God truly is, I do have some ideas."
Bai Zihan immediately became attentive.
Within the Soul-Confining Artifact, Empress Feilian’s voice gradually became more solemn.
"Most cultivators believe that the Immortal Emperor Realm is the end of cultivation. That it is the absolute peak."
"They are wrong."
Empress Feilian continued calmly.
"The reason they think so is simple. Immortal Emperors are the strongest beings they have ever known."
"Throughout countless years, no one has surpassed that realm. Naturally, people assume it is the final destination."
A faint sigh escaped her.
"However, only those who have actually stepped into the Immortal Emperor Realm understand the truth."
"The Immortal Emperor Realm is not the end. It is merely the beginning."
If word of such a statement spread throughout the world, countless cultivators would likely go mad.
Immortal Emperor!
A realm that existed only in legends.
Yet according to Feilian, it was merely the beginning.
"The moment one enters the Immortal Emperor Realm, their perception undergoes a fundamental transformation."
"You begin to perceive things that ordinary cultivators cannot. You begin to perceive the Laws of the universe itself."
"Countless Laws exist throughout the universe. They form the very foundation of reality."
Bai Zihan listened carefully.
While many people might find this shocking and unbelievable, Bai Zihan was different.
As someone who possessed memories of countless cultivation novels from his previous life, how could he not be familiar with such concepts?
Of course, although he was not particularly surprised, Feilian’s words confirmed that this world also possessed Laws similar to those described in the cultivation novels he had once read.
"At the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm, one may begin to perceive these Laws."
Feilian paused briefly before continuing.
"Only after completely mastering a Law can one take the next step."
"The Dao Manifestation Realm!"
A realm beyond the Immortal Emperor Realm.
A realm Bai Zihan had never heard mentioned before.
Immortal Emperor Feilian’s voice carried a trace of reverence.
"At that stage, a cultivator no longer merely understands a Law. They become capable of manifesting it and controlling them at will."
"They can directly utilize the Law as naturally as breathing. They can alter reality according to their will."
"Mountains can become oceans."
"Day can become night."
"Life can become death."
"Death can become life."
"For many civilizations, such existences were already equivalent to gods."
A faint smile appeared in Feilian’s voice.
"In fact, the True God that these people are referring to is likely a Dao Manifestation cultivator."
If such a realm truly existed, then calling its cultivators gods was hardly an exaggeration.
"Unfortunately, nobody in my era ever reached the Dao Manifestation Realm. Therefore, I cannot say with certainty whether such a realm truly exists."
As someone who had stood at the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm, her desire was naturally to ascend further.
However, despite tens of thousands of years of cultivation and despite her extraordinary talent, she had only managed to perceive fragments of the Laws.
Until the very end, she had never broken through.
These conclusions were the result of tens of thousands of years of research, exploration, and countless records recovered from ancient ruins.
Several moments passed before she spoke again.
"Throughout all recorded history, there was only one individual who was believed to have reached the Dao Manifestation Realm."
"A person whose existence blurred the line between history and legend. A person whose name still appears within the oldest records."
Bai Zihan unconsciously leaned forward.
"Who?"
Empress Feilian slowly answered.
"Dao Sovereign Xuan Tianyu!"
Bai Zihan tried to remember whether he had ever heard that name before.
However, no matter how much he searched his memories, nothing surfaced.
Then again, considering that the world viewed the Immortal Emperor Realm as the peak of cultivation, it was hardly surprising.
Otherwise, the forces from the Central Glorious Continent would not be calling Dao Manifestation cultivators as True Gods.
"The so-called True God’s legacy..."
Feilian’s voice became unusually firm.
"It must be his legacy."
Although she could not be completely certain, throughout the endless history of this world, whenever the topic of someone surpassing the Immortal Emperor Realm arose, only one name ever appeared.
Dao Sovereign Xuan Tianyu!
Even during Feilian’s era, that name had already been nearly forgotten.
Very little information remained regarding him.
The only consistent descriptions portrayed him as an existence of unimaginable power, capable of bending the world itself according to his will.
As a peak Immortal Emperor, Feilian had once searched extensively for anything related to Dao Sovereign Xuan Tianyu.
After all, any clue regarding him might have become her key to breaking through into the next realm.
Unfortunately, despite all her efforts, she had gained almost nothing beyond scattered fragments of information.
Therefore, when Long Haotian mentioned the map and the possible existence of the legacy, she had been both surprised and excited.
Even if it was not Dao Sovereign Xuan Tianyu’s legacy, it could still belong to another Dao Manifestation Realm cultivator.
Thinking about that, Feilian could not help becoming excited.
Perhaps the thing she had failed to achieve in her previous life, she might finally be able to achieve in this one.
But of course, first she needs to know whether the map that Long Haotian mentioned was legit or they had been scammed.
Empress Feilian gradually calmed herself.
The excitement in her heart did not disappear, but she knew that excitement alone was meaningless.
The first thing they needed to determine was whether Long Haotian’s information was genuine.
After all, throughout history, countless false inheritances had appeared.
Even she couldn’t find out anything about the Dao Manifestation Realm, so how can these people get their hands on their legacy?
Thus, before becoming excited about a possible Dao Manifestation Realm legacy, they first needed to confirm whether the map actually existed and whether it was a map of Dao Manifestation realm legacy.
After thinking for a moment, Feilian spoke.
"Ask him about the map."
Although just a piece of the map won’t be able to track down the location, she could check whether it belongs to Dao Manifestation Realm Cultivator.
Bai Zihan nodded.
His gaze immediately shifted toward Long Haotian.
The latter instinctively shivered.
"Long Haotian."
Long Haotian immediately straightened.
"What?"
Bai Zihan leaned forward slightly.
"The map."
Long Haotian’s expression froze.
"The piece of the map your Long Clan possesses. Where is it?"
The moment those words left Bai Zihan’s mouth, Long Haotian’s expression changed.
That was one of the most important secrets of the Long Clan.
Naturally, there was no way he could casually reveal it.
Unfortunately for him, Bai Zihan slowly raised a hand.
The familiar hand.
The same hand that had nearly made him wish for death not long ago.
Long Haotian’s pupils contracted violently.
A cold chill ran down his spine.
Bai Zihan smiled.
"Think carefully before answering."
Long Haotian nearly cried.
A short while ago, Bai Zihan had suddenly become cheerful after speaking to whoever was inside his artifact.
Long Haotian had thought that perhaps the interrogation was finally over.
Perhaps Bai Zihan had forgotten about him.
Perhaps his suffering had ended.
Yet now?
The nightmare had returned.
Long Haotian stared at Bai Zihan.
Then at the raised hand.
Then back at Bai Zihan.
For a brief moment, a thought appeared in his mind.
(Is this guy suffering from some kind of mental illness?)
His moods changed too quickly.
One moment he was smiling happily by himself.
The next moment he was threatening torture again.
Long Haotian immediately buried the thought deep within his heart.
He wasn’t suicidal.
If Bai Zihan somehow learned what he was thinking, another round of torture would probably begin immediately.
Thus, Long Haotian obediently answered.
"The map isn’t with me."
Bai Zihan narrowed his eyes.
"Where is it?"
Long Haotian swallowed.
"It remains within the Long Clan Estate. My father ordered it to be guarded. Only a handful of core elders are permitted to view it."
