"Fire Cloud Divine Lord's Divine Lord Royal Seal was left behind. I wonder how Primordial Chaos Daolord's is?"
Yi Yun knew that the reason why these Sinkhole powerhouses were able to reign supreme over a region was partly because they were geniuses in their youth. They had deep foundations and great fortuitous encounters, and partly because their Divine Lord Royal Seals far exceeded others.
Primordial Chaos Daolord's Divine Lord Royal Seal was naturally not bad.
However, when Yi Yun probed Primordial Chaos Daolord's corpse with his psyche and found the Divine Lord Royal Seal in Primordial Chaos Daolord's dantian, he discovered that the Royal Seal's strength was slowly dissipating.
With Primordial Chaos Daolord's death, the Divine Lord Royal Seal in Primordial Chaos Daolord's dantian had dimmed significantly.
Yi Yun could not help but feel disappointed.
From the looks of it, Primordial Chaos Daolord's Divine Lord Royal Seal had been condensed by himself.
There were three sources of Divine Lord Royal Seals.
The first was a Divine Lord Royal Seal condensed by a warrior after they broke through to the Divine Lord realm. The quality of such a Royal Seal depended on the strength of the warrior who condensed it. The deeper one's nomological insights were, the stronger the Royal Seal condensed. However, if the Royal Seal's owner died, the Royal Seal would lose its energy source and slowly dissipate.
Primordial Chaos Daolord was in such a situation.
However, if Primordial Chaos Daolord was sufficiently powerful, so powerful that he broke through to the Godly Monarch realm, his laws would chase up to the Heavenly Dao. Then, the Divine Lord Royal Seal he condensed would also transform. Even if ancient Godly Monarchs were dead, the Divine Lord Royal Seals they left behind could still exist for hundreds of millions of years without their Dao charms being extinguished!
These Godly Monarch Royal Seals could be inherited by future generations. That was the source of the second type of Royal Seal!
Fire Cloud Divine Lord's Phoenix Royal Seal was also a second type of Royal Seal. The Ice and Fire Phoenixes' strength was in no way weaker than ancient Godly Monarchs. What was even rarer was that they existed in pairs. To obtain such a pair of Royal Seals was a huge opportunity.
Typically speaking, the first type was inferior to the second type of Royal Seal. This was because almost no one's nomological insights could match an ancient Godly Monarch. The Royal Seals they condensed were always of poor quality.
However, there were no absolutes in the world. If the owner who condensed the Royal Seal was a genius that appeared once in a hundred million years, and used his own insights to break through to the Godly Monarch realm, allowing the condensed Royal Seal to transform into a Godly Monarch Royal Seal, then the quality of the Royal Seal would exceed the first type. This was because a Royal Seal that one nurtured was always better than one left behind by others. The former was more suitable for oneself!
Primordial Chaos Daolord had taken the first path. He wanted to condense his own Divine Lord Royal Seal and break through to the Godly Monarch realm.
"This Primordial Chaos Daolord was very ambitious. Unfortunately, he died at my hands. If not, ignoring the possibility of him breaking through to the Godly Monarch realm, it would not be a problem for him to continue cultivating to become the strongest beneath the Godly Monarch realm."
Yi Yun knew that Primordial Chaos Daolord was considered very young among the Sinkhole powerhouses! His future was limitless, but the martial path was as such. Godly Monarchs of the same era were destined to step over the corpses of countless failures to reach the pinnacle. Primordial Chaos Daolord was just one step short of becoming a failure!
Primordial Chaos Daolord's Royal Seal could not be preserved for long. It was worthless. As for Fire Cloud Divine Lord's Royal Seal …
Yi Yun looked down at the two flying phoenixes — one red and one blue — in his palm. As long as he wished, he could fuse with the Fire Phoenix Royal Seal after he broke through to the Divine Lord realm. This was an unattainable opportunity for many Divine Lords, but Yi Yun did not wish to do so.
He was equally ambitious, and much more so than Primordial Chaos Daolord. He wanted to condense a Divine Lord Royal Seal himself. He could take the first path, or choose the third and final method of obtaining a Divine Lord Royal Seal — the Grand Primordium Royal Seal.
Legend had it that at the beginning of the Universe's formation, Divine Lord Royal Seals were naturally formed by the Heaven and Earth. Such Divine Lord Royal Seals were the Great Dao of the Heaven and Earth, and they were extremely few in number. They were nearly legendary.
In the Chaos Gem slips left behind by the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch, there were records regarding the Grand Primordium Royal Seals. However, there was no mention of how to obtain them.
Yi Yun did not have any hopes of fusing with the Grand Primordium Royal Seal. It was something that could only be chanced upon. What was urgent at the moment was to break through to the Divine Lord realm.
Yi Yun continued searching through the other treasures of Primordial Chaos Daolord and Fire Cloud Divine Lord. The treasures left behind by the two Sinkhole powerhouses were truly a massive fortune.
"These treasured herbs …"
Yi Yun's eyes lit up. Having cultivated in the Martial Dao for so long, Yi Yun had seen all sorts of natural treasures. He had extremely high standards, but even so, the treasured herbs found in the two Divine Lords' interspatial rings still made his heart race.
"These are … the feathers and bones of the Ice and Fire Phoenixes! They contain phoenix blood essence … "
"Oh? There's also the Flood Emerald Blood Lotus. It must have been born from soil that was sprinkled with phoenix blood. "
Yi Yun found a jade box in Fire Cloud Divine Lord's interspatial ring. He opened it and found these items inside.
Without a doubt, back when Fire Cloud Divine Lord found the nirvana grounds of the Ice and Fire Phoenixes, he had not only obtained a Divine Lord Royal Seal, but he had also obtained the phoenix bones, feathers, and a Blood Lotus. However, he could not bear to use them. All he did was fuse with the Divine Lord Royal Seal to preserve these treasures.
"He must have kept them to break through to the Godly Monarch realm."
Yi Yun knew that at Primordial Chaos Daolord's and Fire Cloud Divine Lord's level of cultivation, their only obsession was to break through to the Godly Monarch realm. Although the path was difficult, they had made all sorts of preparations for it.
In order to increase the chances of success at the final moment of the breakthrough, they had prepared these treasured herbs.
"They could not bear to use these items when they were alive, but now, they have benefited me. It's no wonder Primordial Chaos Daolord died with everlasting regret."
Yi Yun remembered the look in Primordial Chaos Daolord's eyes at the very end. The hatred and indignation in his heart felt like he was about to come back to life from anger.
"The treasures they used to break through to the Godly Monarch realm will be used by me to break through to the Divine Lord realm. With these items, I will no longer need to search for treasured herbs when cultivating the Dragon Emperor Technique in the future."
Yi Yun was not one to be mean to himself. After all, he did not feel the pinch using the treasures of others. He could use whatever was good. As for the treasures needed to break through to the Godly Monarch realm, he could collect them in the future.
Yi Yun put away all the treasured herbs, bones, and relics.
Apart from that, Primordial Chaos Daolord and Fire Cloud Divine Lord had left behind quite a sizable number of Godly Monarch Immortal Annuli. There were dozens of them, and Yi Yun naturally accepted them.
As for cultivation technique jade slips and array formation manuals, Yi Yun only browsed through them casually. He had many seniors and even the heritage left behind by the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch, so he had no need for them.
However, when Yi Yun saw Primordial Chaos Daolord's records on the Primordial Chaos laws, as well as Fire Cloud Divine Lord's insights on fire control, he paid extra attention to them. These were the insights Primordial Chaos and Fire Cloud Divine Lord had gained over their lives. As Sinkhole powerhouses, the insights they had written down in their domains of expertise gave even Yi Yun, who had read all sorts of top heritage, plenty of inspiration.
"These notes are quite a harvest."
Apart from the treasured herbs and heritage, there were all sorts of talismans, weapons, and artifacts. Anything that could be collected by Primordial Chaos Daolord and Fire Cloud Divine Lord was naturally extraordinary. Yi Yun put them all away.
He had made a killing in this battle. Indeed, killing and plundering was the best way to get rich.
"Senior River of Forgetfulness, do you know which of the eight ancient Godly Monarchs obtained a Grand Primordium Royal Seal?"
Yi Yun was still thinking about the Divine Lord Royal Seals. According to Yi Yun's foundation, as long as he stepped through the threshold of the Divine Lord realm, he would not need much accumulation to fuse with a Divine Lord Royal Seal.
What Yi Yun wanted was naturally a Grand Primordium Royal Seal. But now, Grand Primordium Royal Seals were nearly extinct. In ancient times, Grand Primordium Royal Seals still existed in the records.
Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness guessed what Yi Yun was thinking. He said, "Yi Yun, there's no need for you to be overly obsessed with the Grand Primordium Royal Seal. If you can reach the pinnacle of the Martial Dao in the future, the laws you cast would be equivalent to the Heavenly Dao. The Royal Seal you condense would also represent the Heavenly Dao, making it equivalent to a Grand Primordium Royal Seal."
"Senior, do you think I can reach that stage?"
"Others might not be able to, but you have the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch's heritage. It's not impossible. You defeated a Sinkhole powerhouse when you had one foot in the Divine Lord realm. Although it was a trick, if others were to learn of it, the entire martial world would be shocked. Perhaps, you might really have a sliver of hope of following in the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch's footsteps.
"I don't have much time left. If you wish to cultivate in the laws of time, my heritage from back then has been left in the Azure Lamp of Time."
When Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness said that, Yi Yun felt sad. Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness was already at the end of his lifespan. It would be very difficult for him to recover.
All he could do was allow Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness to continue his slumber in the Azure Lamp of Time. Once his strength reached a higher realm, he could attempt to treat Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness. But even then, Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness would not be able to extend his lifespan for long.
"Senior River of Forgetfulness, I have another question. Back when the Dao Originator Celestial Thearch left his heritage, how many Godly Monarchs were there in the world? Later on, how many of these Godly Monarchs survived the battle with the Ancestor God? "
Godly Monarch River of Forgetfulness drew a deep breath. His gaze seemed to traverse hundreds of millions of years to see the primordial era when the Martial Dao was at its peak.
He said, "It was an era where stars shone, but there were not many Godly Monarchs of the same era. The eight ancient Godly Monarchs were only eight who participated in the battle with the Ancestor God. However, that battle was just too dangerous. Not everyone was willing to risk their lives. According to what I know, there were two Godly Monarchs who did not participate in the battle. Furthermore, they disappeared after the battle …"
"Oh?"
Yi Yun was slightly taken aback as he paid some attention.
He knew that Godly Monarchs had extremely long lifespans. They were dozens of times longer than Sinkhole powerhouses like Primordial Chaos Daolord. They could live from primordial times to the present.
It was extremely difficult for the entire Sinkhole and the 12 Empyrean Heavens to produce a Godly Monarch, but once one was born, it was rare for one to perish. Now, Bai Yueyin was not the only Godly Monarch in the Sinkhole.
"Senior River of Forgetfulness, rest in the Azure Lamp of Time. I plan on entering seclusion to recuperate and simultaneously attempt the Divine Lord realm."
Yi Yun guessed that Primordial Chaos Daolord and company had only obtained two Chaos Gem armors. Now, he could enter seclusion in peace in the Chaos Gem mineral vein.
