When Chen Nianzhi heard this, he couldn't help but nodded slightly.

The three talents, four images, and seven great emperors, if nothing else goes wrong, are all followers who can achieve the sub-sage level.

It's just that due to various reasons, his own foundation is incomplete, so he has never reached the sub-sage realm.

Nowadays, if they want to return to the sub-sage realm, they still have to make up for their own potential.

However, in order to make up for their potential, everyone needs at least nine levels of Hongmeng Yuanqi, and Chen Nianzhi is not willing to waste Hongmeng Yuanqi for the time being.

You know, if you want to condense it into one Hongmeng Origin Qi, you need ninety-nine and eighty-one Hongmeng Origin Qi.

Chen Nianzhi has been practicing for tens of billions of years, but he has only obtained more than two hundred Hongmeng Yuanqi. After deducting the losses over the years, there is not much left.

The most important thing is that there are limits to refining the Grand Meng Beginning Qi. Before Chen Nianzhi breaks through the Chaos Heavenly Emperor, he can only cultivate twelve levels of the Grand Meng Beginning Qi at most.

If it were replaced by Hongmeng Yuanqi, it would only be more than 900 channels.

Considering that Chen Nianzhi will need to advance to the Guixu Seal in the future, and even practice the Chaos Immortal Body, it is better to be sparing with Hongmeng Shiqi.

With this thought in his mind, Chen Nianzhi said: "Since it is difficult to go further, all you need to do next is to consolidate your own foundation."

"When I set foot on the throne of the Emperor of Heaven, I will definitely not treat you badly."

When the seven great emperors heard this, they immediately became happy and prostrated themselves in the tunnel: "Don't worry, sir, we will work hard to practice and we will not let you down."

"Um."

Chen Nianzhi nodded and said nothing more.

He motioned for the seven of them to go down, and then began to practice in a deeper level.

This time, Chen Nianzhi refined the blood and bones of the Emperor of the Great Wilderness into a total of eighty-one sub-holy treasure pills.

After that, Chen Nianzhi began to refine the elixir continuously, and even directly used the power of the Guixu Furnace to forcibly refine the elixir.

During such continuous refining, the treasure pill began to be consumed rapidly.

When the resources in his hands were completely exhausted, Chen Nianzhi finally broke through the cultivation base again and set foot on the eighth level of the Hunyuan Emperor's body.

"It's a pity, it's just a little bit off."

After his physical body broke through, Chen Nianzhi felt a bit regretful.

This time, Chen Nianzhi had a feeling that he had almost broken the limits of the physical body again in the practice of cultivating his own way.

It's a pity that Chen Nianzhi's physical body is too powerful and he has exceeded his own limits many times, so this last step is always a little short.

"My foundation is relatively scientific, so the Guixu furnace is not strong enough, otherwise I would have broken the limit again."

Chen Nianzhi sighed slightly. If he breaks the limit again and cultivates the ninth true spirit pattern, then his strength will definitely undergo a heaven-defying transformation.

At that time, with the eighth-level physical body of the Hunyuan Emperor and the increase in the nine true spirit divine patterns, Chen Nianzhi will have the invincible combat power of the Yasheng.

The Invincible Sub-Saint is also called the Wuji Sub-Saint. This type of Sub-Saint is an extremely rare existence.

In the vast chaos, there are theoretically only three types of people who are qualified to be called invincible or infinite sub-sages.

One is the physical saint who has cultivated the nine true spiritual forms. With the blessing of the nine true spiritual forms, these beings can defeat ordinary sub-sages with one against ten.

The second is the enlightenment of the soul. The enlightenment of the soul can keep pace with the sanctification of the physical body, and the theoretical combat power is naturally not weak at all.

The third one is the person who masters the Way of Wuji. The Way of Wuji has more divine forms than the nine great ways, and its power naturally exceeds the power of the nine divine forms.

For example, Chen Nianzhi's five avenues, even the most common mixed-gold infinite avenue, also has eighteen avenues of divine form. How powerful will it be once it is fully mastered?

However, there are at least dozens or hundreds of powerful men at the Great Emperor level on a Wuji Dao, so it is difficult to master the Wuji Dao, and sub-sages of this level rarely appear in the vast chaos.

But once there is a being who masters the infinite way, the combat power will never be weaker than the physical saints of the nine true spirits and gods.

And above the Wuji Yasheng, there is a realm that can be called Bantian Emperor.

Those who become saints in the physical body, after cultivating the nine true spiritual and divine forms, can then unite the nine true spiritual and divine forms into one, and then they can enter the realm that rivals the Heavenly Emperor.

The strong men in this field are already comparable to the Emperor of Chaos in at least one aspect.

The Immortal Old Man is in this realm. His physical defense power surpasses that of many Chaos Heavenly Emperors, but his attack power is a very obvious weakness. He is only at the level of the Wuji Yasheng.

"We are both sub-sages, but there are differences."

"Fortunately, except for physical sanctification, other Wuji sub-sages almost do not exist."

Chen Nianzhi whispered in his heart, as the saying goes, the strong will always be strong. Any great path will attract a large number of extraordinary talents to practice, and no matter how bad it is, they will practice it at the same time.

In this case, the Wuji Avenue has surprisingly many great avenues with divine shapes, and the eighteen great avenues with divine shapes and mixed gold avenues are all relatively small in number.

It is said that there is a top-level Wuji Dao, and there are even seventy-two Dao divine forms, which are practiced by hundreds of thousands of powerful emperors, and even hundreds of Chaos Emperors.

Under the deduction of these powerful people, the top level of Wuji Dao has even reached an incredible level.

If someone can really master it, it is not impossible to suppress the Emperor of Chaos with the body of a sub-sage, but it is unlikely that this kind of avenue can be mastered by a mere sub-sage.

Because after mastering this infinite path, one can break through the realm of chaos with a single thought, and can directly step into the second realm of chaos, and even have the possibility of stepping into the third realm of chaos.

How can a mere sub-sage master such a great way?

"The Yuan Shen Dao has disappeared, and the Wuji Dao will never come out for eternity. With my current strength, I can be regarded as the most powerful person in the sub-sage realm."

"I dare not say that the sub-sage is invincible, but those who have cultivated the divine form of the nine great avenues should not be my opponent. Only the physical saints who have cultivated the nine true spiritual divine forms can beat me."

Chen Nianzhi's thoughts were floating, and then he walked out of the retreat room.

But at this moment, in the ancient world of the wilderness, two ancient ancient ships have been prepared for a long time, and eleven powerful emperors are also making final preparations for the battle.

"It's time to go."

Chen Nianzhi looked at all this, and thoughts emerged in his mind.

"..."

Soon after, the ancient ship of chaos set off, and Chen Nianzhi left his reincarnation body to sit in the ancient world of the wilderness, bringing with him all the powerful emperors under his command.

This time he returned to the Seven Domains of Nanyuan, not because Chen Nianzhi was arrogant, but because he had made adequate preparations.

There are three reasons for this.

One: Chen Nianzhi's combat power has reached the top sub-sage realm. With such strength, looking at the seven regions of Nanyuan, he is already the top powerhouse under the Emperor of Heaven.

Second: Inviting the Immortal Old Man to help. The Immortal Old Man is an invincible fighting force under the Emperor of Heaven. Even the Emperor of Chaos is unwilling to take action against this person.

Third: There are changes in the internal environment. Not long ago, two important news came from Jiang Linglong.

The first news was that she had reached an agreement with the Emperor Taichu and Emperor Ziwei, and would take the opportunity to unite the human and divine tribes to counterattack the monster tribe when Chen Nianzhi returned.

Moreover, after the completion of the matter, the two ancient divine emperors will personally conclude the 'Eternal Covenant' with the lineage of Guixu Daozu in the name of the Ancient Divine Court.

The second news is that Zhenjun Haoran became a disciple of Haoxu Daozu and became Haoxu Daozu's closed disciple.

The Haoxu Taoist is the master of the Haoran Primitive Domain. He pioneered the method of Confucianism and Taoism to become a saint. He is also a famous Chaos Taoist among the seven domains of Nanyuan.

With the help of this network, Jiang Linglong contacted True Lord Haoran to win over Taoist Haoxu.

Although the Haoxu Daozu is the master of the Haoran Primitive Domain, there is always no successor in the Haoran Primitive Domain, so he attaches great importance to True Lord Haoran.

Although he did not agree to take action against the Three Extremes Primitive Domain, he also agreed to take action when necessary to stop powerful enemies outside the Three Extremes Primitive Domain.

With the relationship with Taoist Haoxu, Chen Nianzhi's external environment has become much better.

After all, Chen Nianzhi is now a sub-sage and has many backers at the Chaos Emperor level. Those Chaos Emperors may not be willing to deal with such people.

It can be said that each of the pieces of news brought by Jiang Linglong is extremely important.

In the battle to seize the heavens that year, the Ancient Divine Court suffered heavy losses.

This time, the Ancient Divine Court teamed up with the Human Immortal Court, and with the help of Chen Nianzhi's return, the counterattack against the demon clan was expected.

However, the Ancient Divine Court is willing to form an alliance with Chen Nianzhi's lineage, which is not something that can be promised casually.

The so-called eternal covenant is an eternal offensive and defensive alliance, which means that if anyone attacks Chen Nianzhi, the Ancient Divine Court must help him.

When necessary, even the two divine emperors cannot stand idly by.

On the other hand, when the Ancient Divine Court is in trouble, Chen Nianzhi's people must also do their best to help.

Today, there is only one sub-sage in Chen Nianzhi's lineage. By forming an alliance with the Ancient Divine Court, strictly speaking, it is a big advantage.

The two god emperors agreed mainly because of Chen Nianzhi's potential, and secondly, it also had a lot to do with Jiang Linglong.

However, the Taoist Immortal Sage does not care about the affairs of the mortal world. Chen Nianzhi is already the only sub-sage of the human race, and will definitely become the de facto leader of the human race's Immortal Court after his return.

The two tribes of humans and gods want to join forces to fight against the demon tribe. This covenant will also be of great benefit to both tribes.

You must know that the covenant signed between the ancient gods and the human race was not an eternal covenant, but an ancient covenant that needed to be renewed every thousand tribulations.

The Ancient Covenant did not have clear requirements for the strength of support from both sides, so when Chen Nianzhi was robbed, the Gods did not use their full strength.

Otherwise, in the battle that year, the two clans could have saved Chen Nianzhi with their combined efforts. Even if the three demon clan emperors took action, they would not be able to force Chen Nianzhi into the chaotic sea under the protection of the two clans.

Of course, although it was unexpected that the Gods were willing to form an alliance, it was still foreseeable. After all, Jiang Linglong was also the quasi-emperor of the Gods in the past, and Chen Nianzhi's potential was enough to attract the attention of the two god emperors.

But Chen Nianzhi was really surprised when True Lord Haoran became a disciple of Haoxu Dao Ancestor.

However, if you think about it carefully, this is still expected. True Lord Haoran was reincarnated with the Innate Question Book, and he himself is the heel of the Great Emperor and even the Sub-Saint level.

Over the years, he has been wandering in the vast sea of ​​chaos, and his understanding of Tao and Dharma has become more and more profound.
