"My situation is the Sea Forest's biggest secret. I hope the two of you can guard it for me. Otherwise, I'm afraid it will cause a storm in the four seas."
Li Yunxiao's heart trembled. The Sea Emperor's position in the four seas was like a god. Could it be that he also had ill intentions?
He thought about how Guang Fa and Guang Yuan dared to openly turn against each other. It seemed like the four seas weren't peaceful either. "Don't worry. Since Lord Sea Emperor has spoken, we will definitely guard it. However, there's one thing I don't understand. The Grand World Divine Art and the Divine Art of Great Evolution are two completely different divine arts. Why are they the closest to the Ancient Maha Sutra? "
The Sea Emperor smiled. "There's a story called the blind men touching the elephant. Four blind men touched the elephant's trunk, ears, legs, and tail. Although the shapes are different, they are indeed a part of the elephant and are the closest to the real elephant. As for the other divine arts, they didn't even touch the elephant's shadow. "
Li Yunxiao suddenly understood. "I understand now. If the four divine arts are gathered, can the complete Ancient Maha Sutra be restored?"
The Sea Emperor smiled. "Do you think that the elephant's trunk, ears, legs, and tail will be the complete elephant?"
Li Yunxiao smiled bitterly. "It seems that my thinking is too simple."
The Sea Emperor's expression turned solemn. "The Ancient Maha Sutra is a heaven-defying item that can directly trigger the world's power to destroy it. It's not something we can pry into. It's already a great fortune for you to have the Grand World and Divine Art of Great Evolution."
Li Yunxiao asked, "Lord Sea Emperor, do you know where the other two divine arts are?"
The Sea Emperor smiled. "The other two are the Sun Scripture and the Absolute Beginning Scripture. The Sun Scripture has always been in my Bo clan's hands. As for the Absolute Beginning Scripture … I have some thoughts but I'm not sure. Although I don't covet the two divine arts in your hands, I hope to borrow your power to complete the three thousand characters. "
Li Yunxiao was shocked. "Could it be that the Sea Emperor Palace has the true characters of the 2,640 remnant characters carved on the pillars outside?"
If this was true, then this wealth was simply astonishing. According to the information revealed by Yuan Gaohan, the number of ancient characters that Sanctuary and Deity Transformation Sea cultivators had mastered was only a few hundred.
The Sea Monarch chuckled and said, "I'm not afraid of anything. The Sea Monarch Palace does have the word 'truth', but I can't fully grasp it."
Li Yunxiao was greatly shocked in his heart, and his voice trembled as he said, "If … if the power of these ancient characters is completely grasped, what kind of existence would it be?" He finally asked the question he wanted to know the most, "Is it still possible to step into the Divine Realm of Ten Directions under this sky?"
Sea Emperor Bronn's expression became somewhat solemn, and he changed the topic, "Do you know what is after the peak of Nine Stars?"
Li Yunxiao said without hesitation, "Before the end of martial arts, transcend mortality and enter sainthood."
The Sea Emperor nodded, "You're half right. After the peak of Nine Stars, it is true that one will transcend mortality and enter sainthood. However, that is not before the end of martial arts, but after. "
"What? After the end of martial arts? "
Li Yunxiao was greatly shocked, "After the end of martial arts, isn't it directly into godhood?"
The Sea Emperor said in a deep voice, "A long time ago, it was indeed like this. After the end of martial arts is the Divine Realm of Ten Directions, which directly enters godhood. However, it has been too long since a Godly State expert appeared under this sky. When a person's cultivation rushed to the peak of Nine Stars, he still continued to advance and breakthrough. At this time, he has already exceeded the scope of martial arts, but he is unable to cultivate to godhood, so a new realm appeared, and that is transcendence and sainthood. "
He raised his eyes and looked at Li Yunxiao, "When you were at your strongest in your previous life, you should have also stepped into the realm of transcendence and sainthood, right? Didn't you notice that the power that transcends everything is very different from ordinary martial arts? "
Li Yunxiao recovered from the shock and smiled bitterly, "There is indeed a difference, but I have always thought that it is a change in the yuan qi before breaking through to the Godly State. In other words, it is an accumulation process of quantitative change leading to qualitative change."
The Sea Emperor said, "It is not surprising that you have this kind of thinking. Under this sky, there is still a chance to become a god, but it is extremely harsh. For example, if you can restore and master the Ancient Maha Scripture, then no matter how the world changes, it will not be able to stop you from becoming a god. "
Li Yunxiao was silent. He knew that the Sea Emperor would not so easily reveal such a secret. After all, it was related to the ultimate dream of countless experts for tens of thousands of years. As for the restoration of the Ancient Maha Scripture, it was simply impossible.
He said, "If I complete the words on the pillar outside the hall, can Lord Sea Emperor tell me what you know about the path to godhood?"
The Sea Emperor smiled, "You can't complete it. The missing three hundred and sixty words are distributed among the four divine arts. You can only complete one hundred and eighty words. As a reward, I can let you choose five hundred words from the pillar to comprehend."
Li Yunxiao's heart was moved. Five hundred words was not a small number. If he could completely comprehend it, the benefits would be immeasurable.
The Sea Emperor chuckled, "You don't have to rush to answer me. You can take your time to think about it."
His eyes gradually lit up and became a little fiery. "Young Master Yunxiao, can you show me the tenth rank divine fire now?"
This was the first time that his originally calm face had such a big change. It proved that he could not conceal the extreme joy and excitement in his heart.
Li Yunxiao nodded and did not hold back anymore. He formed a seal with one hand and a phoenix mark appeared between his eyebrows. Then, an ancient chirp rang out and a thumb-sized flame flickered between his eyebrows.
"True Phoenix Flame!"
The Sea Emperor cried out in surprise. His face was full of joy, but then he carefully stared at the flame and gradually frowned.
Li Yunxiao said, "What, this flame is not enough?"
The Sea Emperor said, "This is indeed the true True Phoenix Flame, but this flame is injured."
"Injured?"
Li Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat. When he had obtained the True Phoenix Flame, he had directly received the information contained within. The Divine Flame Phoenix had indeed been severely injured in the battle with the Black Flame Evil Soul. He couldn't help but be astonished. The Sea King could even see this?
The Sea Emperor nodded and said, "Yes, and this flame is a little strange. It seems to have been modified by an external flame?" His face was full of doubt. "Strange, what kind of flame in this world can cause the True Phoenix Flame to change?"
Li Yunxiao could not help but be convinced. He said, "The Eye of Truth is indeed the strongest divine eye in the world. This True Phoenix Flame has absorbed a little of the Ice Fiend Heart Flame."
The Sea Emperor's expression changed greatly and revealed a look of shock. He suddenly said, "So that's how it is. No wonder, no wonder …"
He muttered to himself for a while before saying, "It's a pity. If I could absorb a little more, perhaps this divine flame could repair itself."
Li Yunxiao's eyes moved. The divine flame between his eyebrows gradually extinguished. He said, "Could it be that this flame can't light the Seven Star Lamp?"
The Sea Emperor said, "Unless you can stay in the Sea Imperial Palace for a long time and look after the divine flame."
Li Yunxiao's face darkened. This was clearly an impossible condition.
The Sea Emperor smiled, "Fine, as a reward for helping me, I will repair your tenth level divine flame. What do you think?"
Li Yunxiao said, "It would be best if I could repair it." Although he did not know the difference between repairing it and the current one, it would definitely be more powerful.
The Sea Emperor said, "The Sun Scripture has always been the Sea Imperial Palace's secret cultivation method. In order to cultivate this divine art, my ancestor once obtained a strange item called the Worldly Furnace. There is a large amount of fire element vital energy inside that can nourish the divine flame. My eldest disciple, Gu Hong, just came out of seclusion. You came at the right time. "
Li Yunxiao asked, "How long will it take to repair the divine flame?"
The Sea Emperor said, "That depends on your control over the divine flame. There has never been such a precedent. I don't know either. Follow me."
The Sea Emperor's figure gradually faded like the moon in the water. He turned into a ray of light and shot out of the palace.
Li Yunxiao and Ye Fan finally realized that the Sea Emperor in front of them was only a projection. His real body was probably still guarding the Seven Star Lamp.
The two of them immediately followed, following the ray of light that traveled across the entire island.
The island was filled with the chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers. It seemed to be familiar with the auras of these cultivators. The three rays of light passed by without panic. It was quiet and peaceful.
Soon, they arrived at a corner of the island, facing the endless deep sea.
The Sea Emperor's projection appeared. He walked in front of the deep sea and gazed down.
Li Yunxiao and Ye Fan looked down as well. They saw that the sea in front of them was crimson red. Rolling waves of heat hit them in the face.
Ye Fan said in shock, "This is a true sea of fire."
The crimson waves kept crashing against the shore. Every time they hit, the temperature was extremely high. It was as if they were exposed to the sun.
The Sea Emperor said, "The Worldly Furnace is below here. It was suppressed by the ancestor with ten thousand years of ice."
Li Yunxiao asked doubtfully, "Can this furnace only hold one person?"
The Sea Emperor said, "Of course not. You mean my eldest disciple, Gu Hong?"
A strange expression appeared on his face. He said, "It's best if you don't meet him. Wait until the divine flame is repaired and the Seven Star Lamp is lit. Then you can leave."
Li Yunxiao didn't understand. "Why?"
The Sea Emperor said, "Because Gu Hong is deeply in love with Narcissus. It has been a long time, and Narcissus is now in love with you. If Gu Hong knew, he would definitely kill you."
Li Yunxiao sneered. He naturally wouldn't take this to heart. However, he still felt strange. "If you want to restrain someone, can't you control your disciple?"
The Sea Emperor sighed. "As the Sea Emperor, I rule the four seas. There are many difficulties that I can't help myself. Within the four seas, other than the royal family, there are many powerful S-rank existences. However, what people don't know is that other than these, there are also some races left behind from ancient times. Because they live alone in the deep sea for a long time, they are very little affected by the changes in the world. These races' strength even surpasses the S-rank marine race. They aren't inferior to my Bo family. "
Li Yunxiao was shocked. The world was so big. It seemed that there really wasn't everything. "Could it be that Gu Hong came from an existence that surpasses the S-rank?"
