In the Xuanhuang World, the number of cultivators in the Refining Energy and Foundation Establishment Phase far surpassed the combined total of cultivators from the other realms.
Even if one in ten of these people chose The Emperor’s New Method,
it would be an immense blow to the Celestial Dharma Bearer and the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals.
Besides Dharma Transmitter Ren, the other Dharma Transmitters could no longer sit still.
Because within the Immortal Alliance Headquarters, the practicality and truth of "Building Foundation with Me" had already been demonstrated through empirical evidence.
If they allowed The Emperor to continue speaking...
The high-ranking cultivators of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals couldn’t help but shiver.
Immortal Alliance Hell.
A space that imprisoned thousands of extremely vicious felons, at its deepest reaches,
a figure that seemed to be nothing more than a skeleton, limbs spread out, forming a big character, pinned in the void.
Upon closer inspection, every bone in the figure seemed to be perpetually scorched by Raging Flames, struck by lightning, bitten by strange insects...
Agonies indescribable in words, yet this figure appeared to be so accustomed to it that his face remained calm.
Or perhaps, his almost skull-like face was now incapable of expressing any emotion at all.
In this moment, amidst his body’s countless torments, he slightly raised his head.
His completely black eye sockets peered through the many layers of the Dark Prison, gazing towards the sky of the Xuanhuang World.
"Building Foundation with Me..."
"Building Foundation with Me..."
A dark flame, like a long serpent, emerged from the void.
It sped towards him and in a blink of an eye, it had pierced through his chest.
As the Black Flame passed through his heart, some of it still lingered at the wound, burning the remaining flesh and bone of the figure.
And even his waning soul.
Even with the figure’s resilience, he could not help but grunt in discomfort.
"Building Foundation with Me, Building Foundation with Me..."
Yet he kept muttering non-stop, and within his pitch-black eye sockets, specks of Starlight began to shine.
For a long time, aside from pain, no other sensation had arisen in his heart.
But now, he faintly glimpsed a sliver of hope.
A slim chance to escape his bonds.
How long had he been imprisoned?
Within the timeless gloom of the Dark Prison, he had nearly lost all concept of time.
But judging by the wounds inflicted on his body, it must have been a whole five hundred years.
Having been captured and locked here, he had abandoned all thoughts of escape.
After all, the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals had already drained all his abilities.
Even if he could miraculously escape from here, he would find it difficult to evade the Immortal Alliance’s pursuit and find his way back.
But now, with this voice reaching the depths of the Dark Prison, he might truly be able to flee this place.
"Every bit of pain is established atop my body,"
"It is felt by [me]."
"The source of the pain is [me]."
"I build the foundation…"
Specks of Gold light, following the figure’s speech, began to flicker.
This Golden Light seemed to come from within the figure’s remaining brittle bones.
Always hidden until now, they were sparked to life by a moment of desperation.
Amid the creaking sounds, the Golden Light like flames, baked the bones.
The bones melted like wax candles, but upon solidifying, they formed a slightly smaller but normal-sized body.
The surrounding Forbidden Formations sensed the anomaly of the figure.
Punishments were continually triggered, bombarding the figure.
But the figure had long grown accustomed, even absorbing these punitive measures to condense the energy for his new body.
Under the illumination of the Golden Light, the figure grew smaller and smaller.
Until finally, he was the size of a grown man’s palm.
Emerging from his former skeletal form,
"Building Foundation with Me, it actually reversed me to my original cultivation state."
"Indeed, it is the Supreme Profound Method!"
"Even if detained within the High Wall for more than five hundred years, if I can take this method back, it wouldn’t have been in vain."
The little golden figure transformed into a streak of Golden Light, flying straight out from the deepest reaches of the Immortal Alliance Hell.
Ignoring all along the way every Forbidden Formation.
Even the prison soldiers of the Immortal Alliance Hell did not notice this escaping Golden Light at all.
The Golden Light doll emerged above the ground, gazing at the image of The Emperor in the sky.
"In the face of desperate circumstances, indeed, talents will emerge. Over five hundred years and again such a person appears between heaven and earth..."
"Golden Pill of Chaos."
The Golden Light doll listened intently for a long while, his brow forever furrowed.
"A bit weird. Could it be I’ve been imprisoned too long and grown dull?"
"Never mind, I’ll record it first. Once I’m out, there will be plenty of people to study it."
...
The Great Enlightenment Saint Emperor himself was unaware that, in silence, he had acquired an audience from beyond the High Wall.
At this moment, his discourse had reached the final part, "Singing the Way to Immortality."
"Beyond Xuan Huang, above the Star Sea, lies the Great Tao of the Immortals."
"True Immortals perish, leaving the Great Tao empty."
"Retrograde Dao Shadow, Dao Resonance True Intent, one may peek into the Realm of Eternal Life..."
The Emperor taught with great solemnity.
And these cryptic phrases even caused the Xuan Huang Heaven Path itself to gain insight.
The world’s winds became still.
In the vast Xuanhuang World, aside from the Holy Dynasty’s preaching, no other sounds were heard.
Including those cultivators of the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals who were previously eager to break through the Bright Moon Starlight Array.
Now, they all stood stunned, listening somewhat dazedly to the words of The Emperor.
The higher their realm and strength, the greater the shock they felt in their hearts.
At the Immortal Alliance Headquarters, in the Museum of Divine Artifacts,
Xu Ke and Yin Shangren, who had been waiting for the decisive battle to erupt between the Immortal Alliance and the Holy Dynasty so as to take the opportunity to detonate the Golden Tree and retrieve Mr. Bai’s skull, suddenly felt the ground beneath them begin to shake.
From a slight tremor, the earth slowly became violently unstable.

"What is this..." Xu Ke said, startled.
