Alchemy Emperor of the Divine Dao-Chapter 4579 - : Seed of Regulations
Chapter 4579: Seed of Regulations
Editor: Henyee Translations
It was that old Holy Beast.
Ling Han and the others all stopped as instructed. Could it be that this old Holy Beast wanted to give them some kind of treasure to thank them?
The large black dog rubbed his paws together, and said, “How can I accept this?” However, the look of anticipation on his face betrayed him very honestly.
“This is the seed of Regulations that I have condensed, and I present it to you. This is also the only thing that I can take out now.” The divine sense of the old Holy Beast continued to ring out in their minds.
Then, four balls of light floated in the air.
Seed of Regulations!
Ling Han and the others all looked overjoyed.
To become a Saint, the prerequisite was to ignite the holy flame, and what was the essence of igniting the holy flame?
That was his grasp of the Regulations of heaven and earth.
Using one’s own power to ignite the holy flame meant that one had an absolute understanding of the Regulations of heaven and earth. Thus, one could easily ignite the holy flame. And in the case of the power of belief, it could also be considered as a type of Regulations, a special Regulation formed by the power of belief of living beings.
As for the seed of Regulations… that was to turn his understanding of Regulations into a seed, and slowly fuse it into himself in a smooth and soundless manner. Naturally, his grasp of Regulations would be imperceptibly influenced.
However, the seed of Regulations could only be refined by Saints, and they were refined at the cost of sacrificing one’s own strength. Thus, which Saint would be willing to sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others?

The reason why the old Holy Beast was so generous was firstly, because Ling Han and the others had indeed solved a huge problem for him.
The feeling of only enduring helplessly when parasites swallowed its own flesh and blood was incomparably painful, yet there was nothing it could do. What kind of torture was this?
Now, Ling Han and the others had given him the peace that he had always dreamed of. This was naturally a great kindness.
On the other hand, though the old Holy Beast was still alive, it was indeed on its deathbed. So what if it sacrificed some of its cultivation level?
Ling Han and the others put away the seeds of Regulations, and placed them into their minds.
Then, they set out to leave.
Neither of them asked about the origins of the old Holy Beast. This was obviously something that the old Holy Beast was unwilling to mention. Otherwise, the old Holy Beast would definitely have taken the initiative to tell them.
“Such a powerful Holy Beast must have been an earth-shattering existence in the past,” the little azure dragon said.
“M-hm.”
Ling Han and the others all agreed. When they returned, they only had to make some enquiries, and it should not be too difficult for them to find out the identity of the old Holy Beast.
“Brother Monkey, here.” Ling Han retrieved his seed of Regulations from his mind and handed it over to Brother Monkey.
“What’s this for?” Brother Monkey asked.
“My path does not allow the Regulations of others,” Ling Han said smilingly, “And with two seeds of Regulations, Brother Monkey should be able to break through in a short period of time, and become a Saint!”
They did not have enough resources, and did not have the countless years of accumulation of an Imperial Clan. Thus, if they did not give Brother Monkey some special treatment, it would be very easy for Baili Tian and Yan Dongming to surpass him.
Although Ling Han’s battle prowess at the same cultivation level was unparalleled, his cultivation level was still too low, after all. No matter what, he still needed Brother Monkey to act as his front.
Brother Monkey thought for a moment, then did not stand on ceremony. The path that Ling Han had taken had indeed always been different from the rest.
Moreover, was there any need for him to be polite with Ling Han?
As the four of them advanced, Brother Monkey had already begun to refine the seeds of Regulations.
Previously, he had already begun to make preparations for breaking through to Saint Tier. Thus, he could completely refine the seeds of Regulations directly, and there was no need for him to be like the little azure dragon and the large black dog, having the seeds slowly bloom.
After they had travelled for a day, Brother Monkey suddenly spoke up, and said, “Old Sun is confident that I can light up the holy flame within two years!”
Hearing these words, Ling Han and the others were all incredibly pleasantly surprised.
If Brother Monkey could become a Saint within two years, he would definitely be the first among the younger generation to become a Saint.
Of course, being the first to become a Saint did not mean that one would be far ahead, because after advancing into Saint Tier, every step forwards would be much, much too difficult. It was very normal that one would not be able to take a step even after tens of thousands of years.
Thus, even though there was a gap of a few hundred, a few thousand, or even tens of thousands of years of cultivation time, when they advanced into Saint Tier, they had actually more or less reached the same starting line.
But no matter what, being the first of the younger generation to become a Saint still had great significance.
After walking for another three days, a mass grave suddenly appeared ahead of them!
It really was a mass grave. A large number of corpses were laid out there, lying or sitting. There were even some that were still standing upright, but they had all lost their vitality.
However, even if these people were already dead, there was still a terrifying pressure, as if it was going to tear their skin apart.
The corpses of Saints!
Ling Han and the others immediately thought. Only the Saint and the Great Emperor would be able to suppress Venerates or those with battle prowess on the level of Venerate Tier like them. Meanwhile, it was obviously impossible that these were Great Emperors.
Yi, they had actually arrived at the true Saint Tomb. Then, where had the Nine Mountains Saint and the others run off to?
Was there a second graveyard?
The saintly might of this place permeated the air, and Ling Han and the others couldn’t release their divine sense at all. Otherwise, it would be equivalent to opposing the saintly might of this place, and it would be very easy for them to be wounded — unless the strength of their divine sense had reached Saint Tier.
Furthermore, there were a great many Saint corpses that were enshrouded in dense mist, which turned into pillars of light that shot into the skies, which also greatly affected their vision.
Thus, in this place, Ling Han and the others’ grasp over the environment could be said to have fallen to rock bottom.
“Be careful of ambush,” Brother Monkey said.
This place greatly restricted their divine sense and vision. Thus, if someone hid in the shadows and suddenly launched an attack when they passed, that would really be a little troublesome.
At present, those Golden Generations had all stepped into Venerate Tier, and some were only a step away from breaking through to Saint Tier. Thus, a great many people had Saint Tools on them, and if they secretly revived them and suddenly attacked, that would be very fatal.
—In other places, the commotion caused by reviving the Saint Tool would be too great, and could be sensed and seen from afar, but here, er, sorry, saintly might was spreading out everywhere, and it was not easy to distinguish it at all.
Ling Han and the others were all very careful. No matter how freakish and strong they were, they still had to be careful when they needed to be careful.
They entered into the tomb of Saints, and began their search.
Was this the Saint Tomb? It was practically a mass grave of Saints!
Ling Han looked at the corpses that had collapsed one after another, and couldn’t help but sigh internally.
These corpses had all been Saints when they had been alive, and each of them was all-powerful and renowned throughout the universe. But now? Hadn’t they all returned to dust?
They had all come for the sake of increasing their strength, or extending their lifespans, but in the end, they were all buried here. Their dreams had come to nothing.
Just how miserable and desolate was this?
They didn’t even have the chance to let their descendants mourn them.
Ling Han was even more determined to become Emperor. Though it was inevitable that the Great Emperor would die, his soul would fuse with the heaven and earth after his death. The corpse of an Emperor could be buried in the Void, and no one would ever be able to see it. It was better than this kind of desolation.
“Saintly medicine, Saintly medicine, Saintly medicine.” The large black dog mumbled as it walked, its eyes bright.
However, the saintly might here was too strong. Though it no longer had any destructive power, it greatly affected their search.
Moreover, Saint corpses couldn’t be casually tossed around. Although they had already been dead for countless years, they were still like God Tools that had been unsheathed. They would be wounded upon contact.
