Chapter 733 Old Stories of Bygone Eras: The Legendary Formless God Emperor!
A towering pillar of light descended from the altar!
That enormous phantom eye formed from pure light and the laws of the Great Dao.
It floats silently, its pupils seemingly containing the mysteries of the birth and death of all things and the cycle of reincarnation.
He gazed down at the white-clad figure below, his grand and ancient voice echoing slowly like the divine pronouncements of heaven.
"Young man, your ability to break through several levels and set foot here proves your strength. Your perseverance and luck are both top-notch, a rarity throughout the ages."
“Everything you did before has been seen by me.”
"Your talent is indeed unparalleled, one in a million!"
The voice of the will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye was calm, yet carried a transcendent air of mastering creation.
"Pass my final test, and you will receive the true core gift of this place!"
"A complete Great Dao of the Origin of All Transformations!"
The complete and fundamental Dao of all transformations!
These words were like a thunderclap in the chaos!
The explosion reverberated in the hearts of Huang Ruoxi, Su Qinglian, and the others, causing them to hold their breath!
Even the Darkblade Sprite, who was mentally prepared, couldn't help but hold his breath in disbelief.
The luminous eyes seemed to be lost in some ancient memory, and the voice carried the vicissitudes of time.
He continued to explain for these "latecomers".
"The so-called fundamental principle... is the ultimate law that existed before the creation of heaven and earth and before the separation of chaos."
"They are the most fundamental cornerstones that constitute this endless universe and support the operation of all things. They are the source of all supernatural powers, all magical abilities, and all rules."
"For example, destruction has its roots. The one in control can reduce the stars to nothingness and all living beings to oblivion with a single thought."
"For example, cause and effect have their roots, and those who control them can sever their destiny and transcend reincarnation."
"Time, space, life, death... all the myriad paths in the universe have their origins."
His voice paused, carrying an indescribable heaviness.
"However, the fundamental path, the highest and most supreme, is not something easily attained."
"Let alone complete control, even to gain a preliminary understanding and borrow a trace of its power, one needs to possess at least the cultivation and realm of a God Emperor!"
"Even those who stand at the pinnacle of the divine realm, the ultimate God Emperors, or even the giants at the very top of the God Emperor level, exhaust their entire lives' efforts!"
"And it's not necessarily possible to truly and completely master a fundamental path!"
These words sent shockwaves through everyone present.
God Emperor!
That was a legendary being who surpassed even the God Emperor and truly touched the realm of immortality!
The ultimate god-emperor was already a giant in their understanding who could overlook the eternity of time!
Even beings of that caliber cannot fully control the Root Dao; its level is simply unimaginable!
"Let's take an old story as an example."
The will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye seems to want them to understand the terror of the Root Dao more directly.
"Have you ever heard of... the name of the Formless Divine Emperor?"
"The Formless God Emperor?!"
The Dark Blade Sprite was the first to exclaim in surprise.
"Of course I know! He was an unparalleled genius who appeared out of nowhere in the middle and late stages of the Immortal Ancient Era!"
"Sweeping through his contemporaries and suppressing all enemies, his 'Formless Divine Power' is unpredictable and can simulate all laws and break all techniques, making him invincible for an era!"
"Rumor has it that even if ancient monsters were to revive from the divine source, they would be unable to contend with him and would ultimately be suppressed by him with a mere wave of his hand!"
Huang Ruoxi, Su Qinglian, and the others nodded repeatedly, their faces showing reverence.
Even across the vast expanse of time, the illustrious name of the God Emperor Wuxiang still shines in numerous ancient texts and legends!
It is a legend that countless cultivators look up to!
However, the next words from the will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye nearly caused them to lose their Dao hearts!
"Sweeping across the era? Unrivaled in every age?"
A hint of a half-smile flickered in his luminous eyes.
"Do you know that this future legendary God Emperor, who would be renowned throughout the ages, was nothing more than a... good-for-nothing before his rise to power?"
"what?!"
Everyone was surprised, even Ye Tian raised an eyebrow slightly.
"He came from humble beginnings, was of mediocre talent, and was even publicly humiliated and dumped by his materialistic fiancée. He suffered endless scorn and was destined to live a life of mediocrity, just as he was about to fade into obscurity and die a miserable death."
Guangtong's voice carried a kind of indifference, as if he were witnessing history.
"By chance, or rather... by fate, he received a tiny bit of guidance from me in his despair."
"It is not a complete inheritance, but merely a superficial understanding of a rune extracted from the Great Dao of Myriad Transformations."
"However, it is precisely through this superficial understanding of the true meaning that..."
"He actually derived his own 'Way of Formlessness' from it, and from then on, he made great strides forward!"
"Defeat the arrogant, slay the enemy, and trample the bones of the emperor!"
"Finally... he ascended to the ultimate God Emperor position, leaving an indelible and glorious mark in the long river of time!"
The true meaning behind a rune.
And thus, an ultimate god-emperor who swept across the era was created?!
This time, even Ye Tian's calm eyes showed a hint of genuine surprise.
This Great Dao, the source of all transformations, is terrifyingly powerful!
The Dark Blade Sprite gasped, muttering, "No wonder... no wonder the God Emperor of No Form's supernatural powers are so strange and powerful, capable of simulating all laws. So this is the source! He actually obtained the fortune of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye!"
Huang Ruoxi and the others were even more excited, their gazes towards the luminous pupil filled with endless fervor and longing.
The God Emperor Wuxiang achieved this with only a tiny fraction of his knowledge.
If one could obtain the complete Great Dao of Myriad Transformations...
What a sight that would be!
It’s unimaginable!
The will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye refocused its gaze on Ye Tian.
"Young man, your potential surpasses even that of Wuxiang back then."
"Back then, he stopped at the ultimate God Emperor level and failed to glimpse the God Emperor realm. This was also due to the fact that what he had obtained at the time was ultimately just a superficial understanding."
"Now, the complete Path of Origin is right before you. Do you... dare to accept this final test?"
The enormous pupils flickered slightly, revealing a sense of scrutiny and expectation.
"If successful, one will attain unparalleled fortune and lay the foundation for an everlasting legacy."
"If we are defeated... at best our foundation will be damaged, at worst... our soul and spirit will be destroyed, becoming nourishment for this altar."
Danger and opportunity coexist!
Moreover, the level of danger far exceeds that of any previous challenge!
However, Ye Tian showed no hesitation or fear on his face.
He stood with his hands behind his back, his white robes fluttering slightly in the tide of spiritual energy, his double pupils gleaming with absolute confidence and an aura of dominance over the world.
The God Emperor Wuxiang was able to reach the pinnacle with just a sliver of knowledge.
Ye Tian, on the other hand, possesses the Chaos Body, which is a fusion of all the Dao!
His rebellion against the king was not merely aimed at a mere god-emperor.
"What's there to be afraid of in a mere test?"
He smiled calmly, his voice steady yet carrying a thunderous decisiveness:
"let's start."
There were no grand pronouncements, just three simple words.
Yet it seemed as if they already considered that complete Great Dao of the Origin of All Transformations as something they already had in their grasp!
The Myriad Transformations Source Eye is a giant pupil composed of light and laws.
Like the sacred sun hanging high in the heavens, pure, ancient, and radiating a divine brilliance that penetrates through eternity.
He "gazes" at Ye Tian, who calmly accepts the test, and the celestial light flowing deep in his pupils suddenly intensifies.
"good."
A grand and ancient voice resounded.
With a hint of approval, and even more so with the solemnity of carrying out an ancient contract.
The next moment, a dazzling celestial light, indescribable in any color, descended from that radiant eye!
Like the Milky Way pouring down from the heavens, it precisely poured into the very center of the altar, at the base of that towering pillar of light.
"Boom!!!"
The entire altar, forged from ancient divine iron, suddenly emitted a deafening hum!
All the flowing Dao runes on it lit up instantly, bursting forth with billions of strands of divine light!
It's as if a colossal creature that has been asleep for countless years is awakening!
On the ground in the center of the altar, the runes seemed to recede into the surroundings as if they were alive, revealing a deep hole.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying aura, heavy as ten thousand pounds and seemingly capable of crushing all the star fields, suddenly erupted from the hole!
"Boom!"
A deep, muffled sound, yet seemingly echoing through the ages, resounded!
A colossal figure slowly rose from the hole and finally settled steadily in the center of the altar!
It echoes the towering pillar of light above.
That was a large cauldron.
The cauldron has an ancient and simple appearance, with a dark and chaotic color, as if it has absorbed all the darkness at the beginning of the universe.
The three pillars stand together like an ancient divine mountain supporting the heavens and the earth, naturally imprinted with endless ancient patterns such as the sun, moon, stars, flowers, birds, insects, fish, and the battles between gods and demons!
Each design seems to carry a piece of lost history, exuding a sense of vicissitude and profound time.
The cauldron has a perfectly round mouth and a deep, bottomless interior, as if it were connected to an endless void.
What is most awe-inspiring is the supreme aura that this great cauldron naturally exudes, aura that "bears" all things!
He stood there quietly, yet seemed heavier than the entire Abyss of Burial Gods!
The space around it appears to be collapsing downwards, as if it cannot bear its existence!
An unimaginably powerful force, seemingly gathering the boundless fortune and laws of all the heavens and myriad realms, awe-inspiring divine might.
Like a dam bursting, the cosmic ocean roared and spread out!
"puff!"
Apart from Ye Tian.
The four are Huang Ruoxi, Su Qinglian, Luo Ningshuang, and Xiao Yan.
Under this sudden and terrifying pressure, they couldn't even muster the slightest thought of resistance!
He was so overwhelmed by the pressure that his blood and qi surged, and his body was forced to retreat uncontrollably until he reached the edge of the altar before he could barely regain his balance.
Their faces were filled with horror and shock!
The mere aura emanating from them was enough to overwhelm these young prodigies!
The Dark Blade Sprite also exclaimed in surprise, its dark light flashing as it hid behind Ye Tian's shoulder, its voice trembling.
"Such...such terrifying pressure! This cauldron...is definitely no ordinary divine artifact!"
The will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye, with its enormous luminous pupil, gazed upon the newly appeared cauldron.
A grand voice, tinged with a hint of nostalgia, slowly explained:
"This cauldron is called the Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron."
"He is not a product of this era, but rather originates from a much more ancient and glorious... Immortal Ancient Era."
Its pupils shifted slightly, as if scanning the ancient patterns on the cauldron.
"Legend has it that this cauldron was created by an ancient immortal being who collected the 'Cosmic Mother Gold' born at the beginning of chaos, smelted it with myriad laws, and forged it in the Epochal Furnace for ten thousand years."
"It contains a universe within it, forming a boundless world of its own. Its most mysterious feature is that it can hold a sea of the universe."
"The Ocean of the Universe?"
Su Qinglian repeated it subconsciously, her beautiful eyes filled with doubt.
The Dark Blade Sprite gasped and explained in a sharp voice.
"The Sea of the Universe is no ordinary ocean! It is a strange place formed by the convergence of the laws of all realms and the distortion of spacetime!"
"Within it, a seemingly ordinary drop of water may be a fully functioning real universe containing endless stars and life!"
A single drop of water!
It is a universe in itself?!
What does it mean to contain a vast ocean of the universe?
Does this mean that the Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron can contain an infinite and complete universe?!
This explanation was like a million bolts of chaotic lightning, striking the souls of Huang Ruoxi, Luo Ningshuang, Xiao Yan, and the others!
Their mouths gaped open, their pupils contracted to the size of pinpoints, their minds went blank, and even their thoughts seemed to freeze!
Contains countless universes?!
What kind of concept is this?!
This has exceeded their wildest imaginations!
What kind of power could forge such a heaven-defying artifact?!
The Dark Blade Sprite continued, his tone filled with awe.
"I once heard my former master, the Dark Demon King, mention the legend of this cauldron!"
"In an even older era, known as the 'Dark Turmoil'!"
"This cauldron once made a fleeting appearance, having been used to forge several Dark God Emperors who unleashed boundless calamities!"
"It truly stands at the pinnacle of divine artifacts... a Divine Emperor Artifact! Moreover, it is by no means an ordinary Divine Emperor Artifact!"
Divine Imperial Weapon!
He has been forged from several Dark God Emperors!
Each word was as heavy as a star, striking everyone so hard that they were shaken and unable to control themselves.
Such a supreme treasure is of immeasurable value, enough to drive any giant in the realm of the divine path mad!
As Ye Tian gazed at the Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron, which exuded immense divine power and seemed capable of suppressing all the heavens and ages, a strange light flashed in his double pupils.
This cauldron is indeed extraordinary; its profound essence far surpasses that of the Annihilation Dark Demon Halberd he obtained before.
What is the test?
He asked directly, his voice calm, showing no sign of being intimidated by the title of the Divine Emperor's Artifact.
The will of the Myriad Transformations Source Eye seemed to appreciate his composure. Its light-filled pupils flickered slightly, and without further suspense, it declared in a grand voice:
"The first test is to trigger the Heavenly Yuan Resonance!"
"The Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron is a spirit, extremely proud. Only those who are truly exceptionally talented, have boundless fortune, and possess a clear Dao heart can gain its approval."
"You don't need to suppress it with force, nor do you need to refine its core restrictions. Just reveal your Dao, your Law, and your will without reservation, and communicate with the spirit of the cauldron."
"If you can make the cauldron resonate and cause it to spontaneously emit 'Primordial Divine Light' of three colors or more, then you will have passed this test and gained its initial approval."
"At that time, not only will you pass the test, but I will also be able to temporarily entrust you with the control of this Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron!"
Temporarily wielding a legendary divine artifact?!
Even with Ye Tian's composure, a brilliant light couldn't help but flash in his eyes at this moment!
If he could obtain the help of this cauldron, to what extent would his combat power be enhanced?
It's simply immeasurable!
"To evoke resonance..."
Ye Tian's lips curled into a smile; this test was exactly what he wanted.
He said no more, under the tense and expectant gazes of everyone.
He took a step forward, facing the terrifying pressure that was enough to crush the starry sea.
He walked straight to the Heavenly Origin Divine Cauldron in the center of the altar!
