Chapter 238 One Emperor and Nine Kings
Feng Zichen's numerous treasures were not in vain; the Heavenly Dao had already recognized the Human Emperor's status.
From this day forward, He was a position created by Heaven and Earth, containing supreme creation, indestructible and indestructible.
"Boom!"
After a loud bang, all the strange phenomena disappeared, and the vast universe that had enveloped tens of thousands of miles transformed back into a small Qiankun Cauldron.
In its original location, ten dazzling orbs of light appeared—one large and nine small.
The largest was entirely purple-gold, surrounded by the Great Dao, with the laws of creation and destruction, and within it, a nine-clawed divine dragon faintly swam, exuding great majesty and imposing power. Its vast imperial might suppressed the entire universe!
On it, one could see the myriad aspects of humanity, the myriad scenes of the mortal world, and the ways of change for all living beings.
This was the Human Emperor's status!
To obtain it was to become the Human Emperor, the Emperor of the Human Race!
The smaller ones shone with golden light, surrounded by Daoist rhymes, with a five-clawed golden dragon faintly visible within, seemingly merging with the void, displaying a myriad of magnificent phenomena.
This is the title of Human King!
Without the Human Emperor, the Human King reigns supreme!
To attain this title is to become a Human King, the head of the human race, the leader of all, ruling over a vast territory, assisting the Human Emperor in governing the human race, and being revered throughout the world.
Currently, Feng Zichen's position as the Human Race Chief, if converted to a title, is equivalent to a Human King.
Although revered by all humans, his foundation is insufficient; he can only borrow the power of the human race, unable to truly control it.
Now, however, things are different. Feng Zichen is about to take a step further, ascending the throne as Emperor, integrating all the power of the human race, firmly grasping it in his hands, and leading the human race to glory.
"One Emperor and nine Kings?"
"Is this the will of Heaven?"
"However, this is good! One as the master, nine as assistants, the overall structure of the human race will be more stable, which is beneficial to the development of the human race."
Looking at the ten orbs of light before him, Feng Zichen naturally understood what had happened.
If the achievement of the Human Emperor title were forged by Himself, it would naturally be according to His will, perfectly unified, without any dispersion of power.
However, to make the Human Emperor's position an innate entity, Feng Zichen drew upon the power of heaven and earth. This made the refinement of the Human Emperor's position entirely governed by heaven and earth, changing according to their will.
Feng Zichen, the original owner, was excluded and completely unable to participate. This resulted in the Human Emperor's position being born with one main position and nine supporting positions.
Otherwise, according to Feng Zichen's original intention, he would have only refined one Human Emperor's position to maximize its power.
"The considerations of the Heavenly Dao are ultimately more comprehensive than mine. Let it be!"
Both methods have their advantages and disadvantages; it's hard to say which is better or worse. But this situation was created by the Heavenly Dao and cannot be changed. Feng Zichen couldn't very well say that the Heavenly Dao was bad.
Moreover, perhaps the Heavenly Dao's ideas were more beneficial to the development of the human race. After all, the Heavenly Dao's realm was far higher than Feng Zichen's, and its thoughts were beyond its reach.
...
"The Human Emperor!"
Reaching out, Feng Zichen grasped the Human Emperor's throne in his hand, feeling the immense power emanating from it. He was faintly excited.
Refining it would allow him to stand at the pinnacle of humanity, becoming an emperor revered by all.
This was the Human Emperor!
The rise and fall of humanity, the life and death of countless people, rested on his shoulders—truly the epitome of glory.
Who, born as a human, wouldn't want to ascend to this position?
Feng Zichen was no exception!
Without the slightest hesitation, Feng Zichen fully activated his cultivation technique. Instantly, a vast surge of magical power erupted, enveloping and refining the Human Emperor's position layer by layer.
Faced with Feng Zichen's refining, the Human Emperor's position not only offered no resistance but also willingly relinquished everything, allowing itself to be refined.
Having been created by Feng Zichen, the Human Emperor's position naturally felt a closeness to him; how could it resist?
Before long, the Human Emperor's position was completely refined. In an instant, a powerful force surged from Feng Zichen's body, stirring up endless winds and clouds.
The terrifying power spread, creating a massive chaotic tide in the celestial chaos.
At this moment, Feng Zichen felt an unparalleled power rising within him, making him incredibly powerful, as if he had broken free from everything, infinitely rising upwards.
This was the power of a Quasi-Saint.
Rumble!
A vast river appeared before him, boundless and ceaselessly flowing forward.
This was not the River of Destiny, but the most mysterious and dangerous River of Time and Space in the primordial world.
Under the suppression of Mount Buzhou, this River of Time and Space, which should have been freely traversed by Great Luo Golden Immortals, became incredibly dangerous, forbidding anyone from setting foot upon it.
No, it wasn't that anyone was forbidden from setting foot upon it.
When a Quasi-Saint broke through, the River of Time and Space would descend, allowing them to gather their past, present, and future selves.
Pangu, with great love, therefore, to protect the stability of the primordial world, set restrictions, forbidding anyone from interfering with the River of Time and Space.
But the path of seeking the Dao was arduous for all beings, so how could Pangu block their path to advancement? Therefore, whenever a Quasi-Saint broke through, the River of Time and Space would automatically appear before him, aiding his breakthrough.
Only at this time was the River of Time and Space safe; stepping into it, one would not be suppressed by Mount Buzhou and could glimpse the secrets hidden deep within time and space.
With the aid of his Human Emperor status, Feng Zichen's cultivation has soared, reaching the late Quasi-Saint stage. He summoned the River of Time from the depths of the universe, attempting to gather his past and present.
Unfortunately, his cultivation was artificially enhanced; although his realm and strength were at the late Quasi-Saint level, a fake is still a fake.
He couldn't completely erase his past and present from the River of Time like a true late Quasi-Saint.
However, even so, Feng Zichen was still quite satisfied. Whether he gathered his past and present didn't affect him much, because with Mount Buzhou there, no one could interfere with the River of Time.
Power was enough.
Only power was the foundation of everything.
"In this way, I can unleash the power of a Quasi-Saint at the Great Perfection stage."
Feng Zichen said excitedly, having adapted to his newfound power.
That's right, not just late Quasi-Saint, but Quasi-Saint at the Great Perfection stage.
Feng Zichen was a Great Luo Golden Immortal who attained enlightenment in the Great Chaos beyond the Boundary. Therefore, in the primordial world, He had no future. His late-stage Quasi-Saint level was equivalent to a Quasi-Saint at the Great Perfection stage.
Of course, this method was somewhat opportunistic, making His strength far weaker than a true Quasi-Saint at the Great Perfection stage. However, His realm was what it was; even weaker, He still surpassed a late-stage Quasi-Saint.
At this moment, Feng Zichen was a top-tier powerful being in the primordial world, second only to Kunpeng, Zhen Yuanzi, and others.
However, while proving His Dao through Chaos brought Him immense benefits, it also brought great trouble.
In the primordial world, only by embracing the past, present, and future could one attempt to break through to the Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal realm.
But Feng Zichen was different. Besides this, He also needed to accumulate immeasurable magical power and cultivate his Great Dao to its limit before breaking through the realm barrier and becoming a Hunyuan Daluo Golden Immortal.
