665 Of the Five Emperors in the World, Only Four Emperors Are Left! (2)

The hearts of the crowd stirred. Could it be resolved? Could they, with their current strength, go back in time?

“How do we resolve it?” Lin Feng asked.

What he cared about was not the solution itself but the means involved. If he could understand these methods, it would be greatly beneficial for the study of the Dao of Time.

The Azure Thearch smiled. “The solution is right in the hands of Friend Lin.

Lin Feng was stunned. Then, the Azure Thearch waved his hand and a bone box flew out of Lin Feng’s storage bag.

“Just store your strength in this bone box, guide it with the Luoshu Square and the Book of Luo, reverse the flow of the long river of time, and you can preserve your strength and return to the past,” the Azure Thearch said leisurely.

“But I’ve studied this bone box many times, and it seems, there’s nothing special about it. May I ask what kind of bone it is made of?” Lin Feng asked in confusion.

The Azure Thearch smiled and did not explain. Instead, he asked, “Fellow Daoist Lin, what do you think of the Netherworld?”

“Nothing much. It’s a desolate place, with the people of the human race weak and feeble. It’s not even comparable to the Nether Beasts. They can only struggle to survive, completely like a death trap,” Lin Feng said in a deep voice.

The Azure Thearch did not seem surprised by this answer. He just nodded and suddenly changed the topic.

“The reason why I asked Fellow Daoist Lin to come here and called Fellow Daoist Qianye Yuan over is actually to let you travel through time and return to the past,” the Azure Thearch suddenly said.

Everyone present was stunned. Did he want Lin Feng and Qianye Yuan to go back in time?

“Sending Qianye Yuan back to the past may be related to the deal with the senior, but why me?” Lin Feng asked, puzzled.

He was planning to return to the Myriad Worlds after delivering the bone box. However, the current situation seemed to have changed.

“Fellow Daoist Lin has opened up a new path. If I may ask, how long do you think it will take for you to reach the Emperor level? And how long to reach the true self?” the Azure Thearch asked bluntly.

Lin Feng shook his head. “I don’t know. I’m not very clear about the emperor level now. It seems to be within the realm of the gods. Why is it separated into its own category?”

This time, it was Qianye Yuan who explained. He smiled and said, “The emperor level is actually a transition for gods to reach their true selves. At the peak of the god level, one has reached perfection in one Great Dao law. As for the emperor level, one has actually reached perfection in more than two Great Dao.”

“As for how many Great Dao one has to walk to reach the true self realm, no one knows. However, everyone keeps walking. Because when two Great Dao are completed, the strength of a god is far from as simple as one plus one. It has long exceeded the strength of an ordinary god. Therefore, it is separately divided into a level called the emperor level.”

Everyone understood now. Lin Feng also nodded, but still didn’t have a good attitude towards Qianye Yuan.

If it weren’t for being on the Azure Thearch’s side and having Zhou Changqing and others around, Lin Feng would probably have taken direct action.

Qianye Yuan didn’t mind Lin Feng’s attitude and continued to smile amiably.

The Azure Thearch also nodded, “Indeed, the Emperors are all at this level now, but due to different numbers of perfected major paths, their strengths still vary.”

Lin Feng was still puzzled and asked, “But when the Yellow Emperor made a move earlier, I only saw him using sword techniques. Why is that?”

“Do you know how Xiao Yaozi’s Sword Dao works?” The Azure Thearch smiled and asked.

Lin Feng immediately came to a realization. It turned out that the other party was following the path of Xiao Yaozi. It seemed to be the Sword Dao, but in reality, it encompassed myriad major paths, with the manifestation being in the form of Sword Dao.

No wonder the opponent’s sword intent was so profound. It was because it included other Great Dao.

“In that case, if I want to reach the Emperor level, do I have to perfect one or two major Dao first?” Lin Feng asked.

The Azure Thearch shook his head gently, “The one who opens up the world is different from ordinary people. Because you have opened up myriad Dao, all Dao must progress together. You can slightly prioritize one or two, but if you exclusively focus on them, can your Dao withstand it?”

Lin Feng’s heart stirred. Indeed, if he walked one or two Great Dao first, his River of Great Dao would completely change in nature, just like the worlds of ordinary divine levels. Either the rRiver of Great Dao would shatter, or it would become a single Dao.

He looked at the Azure Thearch and narrowed his eyes. The other party knew so much. Was he a powerhouse who opened up the world?

“Fellow Daoist, please enlighten me!” Lin Feng bowed respectfully and earnestly sought guidance.

The Azure Thearch smiled and said, “The one who opened up the world wasn’t me. The first person should be the Empress of the God Race, who opened up the Divine Realm. Later, Fuxi imitated but failed, creating the Netherworld. As for whether there was a later opening of a new world, I have no memory of that.”

Lin Feng and Qianye Yuan’s hearts skipped a beat. The other party said that Fuxi had opened up the world, and not them. What was the relationship between the Azure Thearch and the Earth Emperor?

Unfortunately, the other party did not explain, so the two of them could not find out.

“I only know that after you open up the world, if you want to reach the Emperor level, all major Daos must be perfected simultaneously. If all myriad Daos are perfected at the same time, I believe it is possible to directly reach the true self,” the Azure Thearch said slowly.

Lin Feng understood now. “So you want me to travel back to give me time to reach the emperor level?”

The Azure Thearch shook his head, “I don’t know how much time it takes to perfect all myriad Daos together. But time is running out now, so I can only try to give you as much as possible. As for whether you can succeed, it depends on yourself.”

“Keep in mind, the Demon Clan has a Demon Lord who has reached the true self.”
