I am a loser, but I defeated countless geniuses with the Soul-Calming Tower.

Chapter 2483

The Dantian, the Heavenly Court, and the Nine Heavens Palace are all secret treasures within the bodies of living beings.

When one first embarks on the path of cultivation, one cultivates the dantian, then ascends to immortality, establishes the Heavenly Court, which contains immortal power and the foundation of the Dao, and finally reaches the Nine Heavens Palace, the beginning of becoming a true immortal.

Those who hold the mandate of heaven comprehend the universe, draw near to the Great Dao, receive the Dao's essence, and open up the Nine Heavens Palace, also known as the Dao Palace.

The mansion contains Daoist essence, which propels one's own transformation and all-round leap. Once completed, one becomes a true immortal.

"Whether I speak or not makes little difference. At present, you have no other way to kill him except by depleting his Dao aura."

"The Nine Heavens Palace is the foundation of a true immortal. Once it is broken, the Daoist essence will dissipate, and the immortal will surely perish."

"However, throughout the history of the Upper Realm, there are very few beings who have been able to break through the True Immortal Dao Palace in the Ascension Realm, and they all used extraordinary methods, damaging themselves to forcibly raise their own power priority to the same level as the Dao Rhyme."

"Even if the True Immortal Dao Palace is eventually destroyed, the foundation will be severely damaged, and the loss will outweigh the gain."

Lin Xuan, whose anger was burning inside, heard Wu Zhaoshan's explanation, and his anger vanished in an instant.

Lin Xuan frowned deeply, still swinging his sword with all his might, relentlessly suppressing Cang Feng Tian Xian.

He now deeply felt what 'ball pain' meant. This Azure Phoenix Celestial was very weak in combat, and even with his full strength, he couldn't even hurt the hem of his clothes.

However, aside from exhausting him, there was nothing I could do about him.

"You were just making assumptions!"

"The world-destroying Dao-breaking characteristic only provided me with the means to contend with Celestial Immortals, but did not grant me the power to slay Celestial Immortals."

"At the True Immortal level, it really is... shameless!"

Lin Xuan's feelings were quite complicated. He activated his senses to the maximum and observed carefully. He quickly discovered that the Daoist charm of the Azure Phoenix Celestial Immortal had indeed been weakened in the battle, but only by a 'trace', which was almost negligible.

"At this rate, we would need to kill him at least ten thousand times before we could completely exhaust his Dao essence. How long would that take?"

Lin Xuan was at a loss and turned to ask Wu Zhaoshan, "Isn't there any other way? Can't you interfere?"

"no!"

Wu Zhaoshan answered firmly: "We can't interfere. The Nine Divine Irons of the World-Suppressing Sect already know me inside and out. They are currently unleashing their full power to defend against me."

"but……"

Wu Zhaoshan suddenly stopped speaking, as if he wanted to say something, but for some reason, he started speaking in riddles.

"But what? Damn it, can you stop being so indecisive?"

Lin Xuan's anger surged again. At this moment, his True Self Invincible Dao Foundation was fully activated, and his temper was extremely fiery.

Wu Zhaoshan had a spiritual presence surrounding Lin Xuan. The moment Lin Xuan finished speaking, he visibly trembled, seemingly somewhat angry, but quickly calmed down.

Then, Lin Xuan heard Wu Zhaoshan's voice.

“I can establish a connection with you and imprint the mark of the Human Emperor on you. You can then communicate with a trace of the Human Emperor’s power, which is comparable to the power of the initial Dao Foundation stage. Perhaps this can be used to threaten a True Immortal.”

"Of course, there will be a price to pay for doing this. You may have to give up the other Great Paths and focus solely on the Great Path of the Human Emperor."

Lin Xuan narrowed his eyes after hearing this: "You're looking for a successor for the Imperial Genealogy? And you want me to give up the other Great Daos?"

"Old man, you've really gone to great lengths. Believe me or not, I'm quitting!"

Lin Xuan's words once again silenced Wu Zhaoshan.

Then, Wu Zhaoshan slowly said, "I am merely offering suggestions. As for whether to choose or not, that is up to you."

"Ha ha……"

Lin Xuan sneered: "Choose my ass. You think you can make me give up all the other heaven-defying paths just because of the Human Emperor Path? You wish."

"Such a huge price was only enough to draw upon a trace of the Human Emperor's power, comparable to the power of the initial Dao Foundation stage, to pose a threat to the Azure Phoenix. The Human Emperor's Dao is worthless, even to a dog."

The words "arrogant" and "conceited" are perfectly embodied by Lin Xuan, whose true self is invincible and whose Dao foundation is fully opened.
