Chapter 236 Qing Emperor (2 more)
```
Only a colossal figure from the Immortal Realm could shock Ye Ling and be referred to as an 'old undying'. Otherwise, when has Ye Ling ever taken anyone seriously with his prideful bearing?
"Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor, it has been a long time." The elder looked at Ye Ling and said with a faint smile.
With that one sentence, the elder pinpointed Ye Ling's past life, and Ye Ling responded with a complex smile, a hint of wariness in his eyes toward the old man.
The Qing Emperor, the most ancient being in the entire Immortal Realm, possessed unfathomable strength. There were legends that he had survived the Phoenix Supreme Tribulation, becoming a supreme being.
There were also tales of him being carefree and immortal. Even if the heavens and earth were to perish, he would exist eternally, a powerful figure who had lived from the primordial times until now.
In short, the Qing Emperor was a legend in the Immortal Realm, a terrifying person, someone even Ye Ling in his heyday would deeply dread.
"Qing Emperor, how come this old geezer is appearing here? Don't tell me this is the place of your legacy. You know I don't believe that," Ye Ling said.
"And how did you send that bunch away? Wasn't there supposed to be one last challenge?"
The Qing Emperor listened to Ye Ling's words and indeed responded with a wry smile and a shake of his head, "With you here, what's the point of having a final challenge?"
"Better to reduce the slaughter. You also know it's not easy for this old man. If you start a massacre here, it could harm the Heavenly Dao, and the karmic retribution would fall upon my head."
Hearing the Qing Emperor's words, Ye Ling simply curled his lip and said, "Spit it out. What's going on here?"
Instead of answering Ye Ling's question, the Qing Emperor just smiled, "Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor, to be reborn indeed. It's hard to tell if this is punishment or the Heavenly Dao's fondness for you."
"I warned you before; the Phoenix Supreme Tribulation is not so easily overcome. With your level of strength, it was not sufficient, yet, ten thousand years later, I heard news of your demise, and I was quite disappointed."
"To think, in less than a year, one of my avatars left on Earth actually encountered you."
"Moreover, Immortal Emperor, your Golden Core is rather peculiar, heh heh."
Ye Ling clenched his teeth, "Old man, what exactly do you want to do!"
In front of the Qing Emperor, Ye Ling's four Golden Cores couldn't possibly be concealed, and a sense of threat instantly emerged in Ye Ling's heart.
"What can I do? My avatar is no match for you, and it might even get devoured by your Nine Nether Emperor Technique. I certainly don't want to lose an avatar without reason."
The Qing Emperor laughed, then pointed to the world around them, "This dragon vein is actually the vile body of the Dragon Emperor from the Immortal Realm. When he severed his outer body, this evil deity happened to run off to Earth and caused chaos."
"I, along with seven others, joined forces to seal it but couldn't destroy it. If we had tried, just the overflow of power would have completely annihilated this planet."
"That's why I laid this grand tomb here, then used the Eight Immortals Dragon Trapping Formation to seal this scourge within it. The Formation has weakened by now, and this evil dragon tried to break free, only to have you all enter."
"Moreover, I really did want to find someone to inherit my Divine Skills. I wonder if you, Immortal Emperor, are interested?"
Towards the end, the Qing Emperor chuckled slyly, hardly looking the part of a noble Immortal. The thought of the Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor accepting his inheritance delighted him.
"Pah! If I inherit your Divine Skills, wouldn't that make me your disciple? In the Immortal Realm, my seniority would be scarily low; do I have to call you 'Master' when I see you?"
Ye Ling cursed loudly, aware of his own standing. He had always acted as he pleased within the Immortal Realm. If he really inherited the skills of this old man, his rivals would be laughing their heads off.
"Cough cough, Nine Tribulation Immortal Emperor, you'd better consider this carefully. My Extinction Golden Body is coveted by quite a few old geezers. It would be a good deal for you. It's just an inheritance, not like I'm truly asking you to acknowledge me as your master."
"Besides, if you became my disciple, there's nothing I could really teach you. I just want to pass on my Divine Skills to create some karma between us so you might help me out if I ever run into trouble."
The Qing Emperor's words left Ye Ling both tempted and suspicious. Stay tuned with empire

The might of the Extinction Golden Body was renowned throughout the entire Immortal Realm, this divine skill was what Qing Emperor relied on, unparalleled in its power.
It was said that it was by relying on the Extinction Golden Body that Qing Emperor stood undefeated, surviving from the ancient times to the present.
"Old guy, you're shrewd, someday I will return to the Immortal Realm, and you establishing karma with me now will be greatly beneficial to you in the future, otherwise you might not get the chance to do so!"
Ye Ling chuckled, his words causing Qing Emperor to laugh as well; this fellow still couldn't resist the temptation of the Extinction Golden Body.
Qing Emperor's thoughts were exactly this: karma, the mysterious causality within the Heavenly Dao, today you help me, tomorrow I will surely repay you, otherwise upon becoming an Immortal, one would be fettered by karmic ties, much like a Heart Demon, unable to continue cultivating.
"Fine, I shall impart to you the method of the Extinction Golden Body!"
With a point of his finger from Qing Emperor, a dense and numerous set of methods instantly appeared in Ye Ling's mind, a series of obscure characters linking into a terrifying divine skill.
The Extinction Golden Body, comprising ninefold, refines oneself through the tribulations of all things, immensely powerful, its defensive capabilities nearly invincible.
And as recorded by the Extinction Golden Body, once one breaks through to ninefold, that is truly when heaven and earth could perish but I remain indestructible, when the world crumbles but I am eternal.
The breath one exhales could extinguish starlight, a wave of the hand could tear the heavens and earth asunder.
This was not a method, not a divine skill, but absolute power!
"Immortal Emperor, I will lend you a helping hand as well!"
With another point from Qing Emperor, next to Ye Ling, a pool slowly appeared, within which thunder and fire raged, lightning flashed across it, and was further illuminated by boundless divine light, shining brilliantly.
"The treasure within this pool is the result of what I've spent I don't know how many eras searching for, today I'll give it to you for a bargain."
"With your talent, Immortal Emperor, you should at the very least be able to use this treasure to break through to the threefold of the Extinction Golden Body."
"Moreover, that foul body of the Dragon Emperor from the Immortal Realm, it just so happens to benefit you as well."
Ye Ling's eyes gleamed with excitement. Damn, that's the external body of the Dragon Emperor from the Immortal Realm, which is countless times more powerful than any dragon vein on Earth.
"Haha, I've struck it rich this time!"n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Ye Ling waved his fists excitedly, wondering to what heights he would grow by devouring the Dragon Emperor's foul body with the Nine Nether Emperor Technique and then cultivating the Extinction Golden Body.
Plunging into the sacred pool shimmering with Five-Colored Divine Light, Ye Ling instantly employed the divine skill of the Extinction Golden Body.
Meanwhile, in the sky, a ferocious evil dragon appeared, emitting a vast deathly aura.
"Hehe! Dragon Emperor, come to me!"
With a great grasp of his hand, Ye Ling forcibly dragged the Dragon Emperor's external body from the sky back to him, and immediately, the Nine Nether Emperor Technique was executed, its powerful devouring force starting to run wildly.
A boundless surge of Spiritual Power immediately drilled into Ye Ling's body, pounding like relentless waves, endless vitality.
"This feels amazing!"
Ye Ling laughed heartily, and at that moment, the Extinction Golden Body broke through to the firstfold, a potent force quietly manifesting within him.
Qing Emperor standing in the sky shook his head with a wry smile: "Once this fellow returns to the Immortal Realm, who knows if it will be a blessing or a curse."
