The weakest is the ordinary dao body, which simply breaks through in certain great paths and refines the physical body.
This type of great emperor is the most common in the cosmic sea, and there are many in the Underworld as well.
For example, Stone Wasteland Great Emperor and Emperor of the Underworld Insects; many of these powerful beings came from ancient times and didn't have much comprehension of other law of the great path. They simply achieved the pinnacle in one path, gradually refining their great emperor divine body and stepping into the great emperor realm.
However, they are merely the most basic dao bodies. If they do not possess an innate divine ability like the Stone Wasteland Great Emperor, which allows them to transform into stone, their dao body can easily shatter.
Above the ordinary dao body is the complete dao body, which fuses multiple top-tier laws.
The emperor dao body at this level is much stronger than the ordinary dao body and is also relatively common in the cosmic sea. Although it is considerably rarer than an ordinary dao body, it is not uncommon.
Above the complete dao body is the infinite dao body, renowned as the strongest dao body in the cosmic sea.
To reach the infinite dao body, one must comprehend the nine fundamental primal rules of the cosmic sea and integrate them thoroughly, to cultivate it.
Currently, the most powerful great emperor in the cosmic sea is the infinite dao divine body, such as the Ancient Emperor Senior, who refined his great emperor body with the infinite dao divine body, making him one of the top few in the cosmic sea.
However, according to the Ancient Emperor Senior, the infinite dao divine body is not the ultimate dao divine body. Above it, there exists a legendary perfect dao divine body, also known as the flawless dao divine body.
To refine this divine body, one must comprehend all the primal laws of the cosmic sea to cultivate the great emperor body. Once one steps into the great emperor realm, they can possess powers unimaginable to ordinary great emperors.
However, because the Underworld separated from the cosmic sea during ancient times, losing the laws from the Underworld, the so-called perfect dao divine body has completely disappeared from the cosmic sea and now only exists in legends, never to be born again.
"Does that mean, senior, that only by refining the perfect dao divine body can I unlock your seal?" Qin Chen asked, puzzled.
The Ancient Emperor sighed and said, "Indeed, I once thought the perfect dao divine body was merely a legend and might not be real. But when you fused with the origin of the primordial universe earlier, I realized that the perfect dao divine body truly exists. That one is the perfect dao divine body you need."
"Even you weren't sure before?" Qin Chen was shocked; was the perfect dao divine body so rare?
"Then how did you become certain before?" Qin Chen frowned again, asking, "Didn't you say that I hadn't achieved the perfect dao divine body?"
The Ancient Emperor looked at Qin Chen and said solemnly, "That's because I sensed the power of higher dimensions within you earlier."
The Ancient Emperor's eyes showed awe: "Higher dimensions exist beyond the cosmic sea. Those who possess power at the higher-dimensional level are not bound by the rules of the cosmic sea and can find their past and future selves from the river of time. In simple terms, they step out of the three realms and are not trapped by the five elements."
"However, comprehending this is extremely challenging. Some divine emperors spend their entire lives unable to touch the edges of higher dimensions, like the Lord Radiant Spirit Master of the Abyssal Clan, who has roamed the Abyss for many years without grasping the power of higher dimensions. But you, during your fusion with the primordial universe, were merely at the great emperor realm, yet you possessed a trace of higher-dimensional power. I can't think of another possibility other than the legendary perfect dao divine body."
