Chapter 1579: Chapter 955: Return

“You…, could you repeat that? I think there’s something wrong with my comprehension ability.”

Tao Yu’s face showed a peculiar expression, with a hint of ‘could you perform that again’ in his attitude.

The consciousness of the Heavenly Emperor within the Time Blade remained silent for a moment, then recounted the events leading to his siege by the Other Shore again.

The Demon Lord, incited by Thor, launched a counterattack on the Nine Heavens, only to be single-handedly slain by the Heavenly Emperor.

But no matter how, the Demon Lord had already reached the Other Shore. His attack on the Nine Heavens led to some secrets being exposed, seemingly involving the mystery of the Dao Fruit!

This directly caused those ancient beings, who hoped to achieve the Dao Fruit, to become agitated; the Three Pure Ones, the Buddha, all joined forces, striking the Heavenly Emperor dead at his doorstep.

Originally, if it ended there, it would have been somewhat normal.

After all, the struggle is for profit, especially when it pertains to the Dao Fruit.

However, the phrase left behind, ‘The Dao Fruit is not to be lent to external objects,’ made most attackers leave, with only Lingshan Buddha consuming the fruit and becoming the second Dao Fruit.

But!

Because of the words left by Yuanshi Tianzun and others, even the Heavenly Emperor vaguely confirmed that the Buddha’s situation might not be as good as imagined.

However, the Dao Fruit is beyond words and thoughts; any thought leads to errors. Even if the state seems strange, others are unaware, and it’s just the Heavenly Emperor’s speculation.

Anyway, the Daoist Venerable, who had never appeared in the current world, gave some hints to others on the Other Shore, but the Buddha remained completely silent.

Upon hearing all this, Tao Yu felt it was somewhat incomprehensible.

Out of curiosity about the depths of the Nine Heavens, they came to beat the Heavenly Emperor to death and then, after checking the Heavenly Emperor’s treasures, remarked that these things were useless.

A pointless death?!

Although the Heavenly Emperor has refined himself into the Time Blade, his essence remains, allowing him to persist. However, for those on the Other Shore, it’s equivalent to severe injury akin to full-body paralysis, slightly better than the sealed Demon Buddha.

Listening to this, Tao Yu couldn’t help but find it amusing.

“If you won’t bring trouble, then I have no objections, but you should also give me some benefits; you can’t expect me to help without getting anything in return.”

Although Tao Yu obtained the “Heavenly Emperor Jade Scroll,” as the Time Blade wasn’t given to him, he naturally needed to negotiate further.

The Heavenly Emperor remained silent momentarily, then said,

“Initially, I intended to let you experience the Dao of Time, but I didn’t expect you to have already made significant achievements in this path. Although I can bring further enhancement, since you’re just an avatar here, the effect might not be very prominent.”

As an entity on the Other Shore, still held by Tao Yu, the Heavenly Emperor could easily understand Tao Yu’s state without feeling strange.

In fact, this was only to be expected; if it were himself, he would do the same.

The Heavenly Emperor was not like the Human Emperor; his actions were quite utilitarian.

“Whatever you can offer is fine, and you should be able to thoroughly comprehend the ‘Heavenly Emperor Jade Scroll’ and pass it to me.”

Tao Yu’s gains had already grown so extensive that it was almost overwhelming, and if the Heavenly Emperor could help him process it, it would be even better.

“That can indeed be done, but are you sure you want that? My imprint is too strong, which might limit your future achievements, and even if you are just an avatar, you need to let down your spiritual defenses…”

The Heavenly Emperor hesitated, unfolding the various issues slowly.

He truly wished for an ally, to survive!

Without seeking more, being honest seemed more suitable.

“You don’t need to worry about these things. Let down my mental defenses if necessary, but you should also be careful coming in, don’t look around aimlessly, and it’s best to only partially enter.”

Tao Yu reminded the Heavenly Emperor’s consciousness within the Time Blade.

“No problem! Rest assured, I’m coming in with all sincerity, without any hidden tricks and no intention of harming you. We have methods to resurrect from death; first, I’ll let you comprehend the ‘Heavenly Emperor Jade Scroll,’ then I’ll personally take you to experience the river of time in the True Realm. Even if there is a difference with the outside world, it should still benefit you…”

Seeing Tao Yu’s trust, the Heavenly Emperor boldly made a firm pledge.

Having once placed such trust in Thor, only to be schemed against, now he experienced a reversal of being trusted.

“This young one indeed has the courage; the potential is limitless.”

The Heavenly Emperor marveled inwardly, without any genuine intention to be calculative; it was unnecessary and unrewarding…

Then, with Tao Yu grasping the handle of the Time Blade, the Heavenly Emperor began channeling a portion of his Divine Sense into Tao Yu’s sea of consciousness, meticulously turning the ‘Heavenly Emperor Jade Scroll’ into comprehensible pieces for Tao Yu, imparting its most essential imprint.

It was akin to leading him to experience his artistic conception.

Typically, imparting knowledge through True Intent Inheritance would be excellent, allowing oneself the insight to comprehend and alter.

As the Heavenly Emperor himself cautioned, such a powerful infusion might excessively accelerate growth, significantly impacting potential.

The Heavenly Emperor had already given adequate warning; he wasn’t a caretaker, not one to repeat endlessly.

But once he entered Tao Yu’s sea of consciousness, he sensed an ineffable horror!

“What is that?”

The fragment of the Heavenly Emperor’s Divine Sense was startled, feeling some invisible threads attempting to merge with his soul and assimilate him.

Even the first revelation by the Daoist Venerable did not evoke this feeling in the Heavenly Emperor.

“Don’t overthink it, don’t look around, just do what you need to do.”

Tao Yu’s voice echoed from within the sea of consciousness, and with its emergence, the impending great crisis also dissipated, seemingly under Tao Yu’s control.
