A captivating allure on the path to Longevity!
Only now does this Immortal Clan spirit understand the cruelty of those words.
Time, how many brilliant minds it has taken away...
Chapter 754 The Sword Emerges, the Heavenly Venerable Falls
Two hundred and forty thousand years into the Immortal Lord Era, Su Yu still exists in the mortal Human World.
He sat in the Reincarnation Sea, bathed in the Divine Soul Pool, and walked on a special path to Longevity. His fifth incarnation had lasted for fifty thousand years, yet he remained Immortal of the Foreign Realm, only his hair had turned slightly whiter, shimmering with a gray-gold luster under the light.
During this time, the master of the Desolate Ancient Forbidden Land entered the Immortal Court and established a celestial abode on the World Tree. Doing so would allow her to observe the secrets of the great world's changes more closely, which would greatly benefit her. The last forbidden zone in the Human World came to an end and became a secret realm of Life in the Great Luo Heaven.
Not only her, but the white-robed Empress had also been contemplating the Silver-Gold Star Tree, undergoing transformations more than once. Deep within the Bronze Immortal Palace, the mist in her eyes grew increasingly hazy, and the pressure became increasingly terrifying.
In the outside world, the reign of the Divine Venerable has ended, and a new, glorious era is about to begin.
This was a breathtaking era, a time of dazzling stars, a diverse array of lineages, and a succession of outstanding individuals, each shining brightly in their own way.
But the ancients who once saddened later generations have reappeared, and a hundred boats race against each other. Di Que and the Ancient Emperor of the Light Clan have become the most terrifying beings, vying for the ultimate position.
When the ultimate tribulation arrived, Di Que defeated the Ancient Emperor, shattered the Feathered Green Gold, and under the baptism of all paths, achieved the status of Heavenly Venerable, looking down upon the Human Realm.
This divine being from the end of the ancient era made amends for the regrets of later generations.
Some ancient people who had retired from officialdom lamented that Ning Fei, Chuan Ying, Gai Jiuyou, and Di Que were all such extraordinary individuals, lacking only one opportunity, but only Di Que made up for a lifetime of regrets.
Eighteen thousand years later, Di Que passed away peacefully, ending his life.
Many people speculate whether Di Que entered the Great Luo Heaven and inquired about the Immortal Lord.
As news of the downfall of the two unparalleled figures, Taichu and Di Huang, spread, the Immortal Court became mysterious and powerful in the eyes of the world. Even with a new Heavenly Heart Supreme, no one could rival the master of the Immortal Court.
More than ten thousand years passed, and the traces of the Di Que, yet signs of a great era appeared once again.
In this Lifetime of fierce competition among heroes, countless corpses and bloodshed littered Heavenly Venerable path to becoming a God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable was born. The God-Slaying Insect a mythical creature, initially no bigger than a thumb, entirely golden in color, resembling a small dragon. It can devour all things and is indestructible. It is said that the true pure-blooded ancestral insect can even devour gods without hesitation.
This Heavenly Venerable was incredibly bloodthirsty. He fought his way through the ancient path, devouring all his competitors and carrying countless vengeful spirits with him along the way.
After he attained enlightenment, he inspired awe and fear. Wherever he went, all races in the universe fell silent, as if they were terrified to the core.
Eight thousand years have passed in this way. The God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable is at the height of his power. He has only reached the halfway point of Lifetime Life, which is the most glorious time of his life.
He made a decision that shocked the world: to take over the Immortal Court. Even the saints and Quasi-Heavenly Venerable beings of the God-Slaying Clan were trembling with fear. They had the utmost respect for their ancestor and believed that the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable was invincible in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, but they found it difficult to make a decision for the time being.
After all, that's the Immortal Court!
The legendary Longevity Abode of Longevity, also known as Lesser Immortal Domain!
The Ye Family, known to the outside world as the Longevity Family, is merely a usurper, lacking even the foundation of immortal artifacts. But the title of the Immortal Court is different; it is deeply ingrained in the marrow of all living beings and cannot be profaned. Even if the beings of the Immortal Court have not appeared in the world for tens of thousands of years, its oppressive aura remains undiminished, as heavy as a celestial mountain.
"Ancestor Emperor, the ten-thousand-year agreement has not yet been reached." Someone spoke, his tone very tactful, but he was facing a Heavenly Venerable of the present age, and none of his thoughts could escape the other's eyes, which greatly displeased the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable.
But this Zerg Quasi-Supreme also raised a very fundamental issue.
Divine Medicine!
It can unlock the supreme treasure that allows the Heavenly Venerable to enter his second life.
This is also what angered the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable.
In the past, during the Heavenly Venerable era, when Ye Fan, Taichu, Divine Venerable, Di Que, and others attained Dao five thousand years ago, the gates of the Immortal Court opened wide, inviting those who had attained Dao in that era to a banquet, where there was always a fruit of Immortal Medicine among them.
However, this Lifetime has changed.
Angels from the Immortal Court arrived, announcing that the Dao Banquet would be held once every ten thousand years, and requesting that the current Celestial Heavenly Venerable attend. The powerful members of the God-Slaying Clan inquired about the reason, but received no reply.
This action was considered extremely arrogant by the domineering God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable, who showed no regard for him, an enlightened being.
The seed of discord was sown at that moment...
Seeing the fear on his people's faces, the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable coldly said, "I am the Supreme of the Heavenly Dao. Do you expect me to accept charity from those people? Legend has it that the Immortal Court possesses the Divine Ruins, the Heavens Island, the Primordial Ancient Mine, and numerous Immortal Medicine. I, the Heavenly Venerable, will personally go and obtain the Divine Medicine!"
He had long wanted to overturn everything; the title of Heavenly Venerable was not worthy of him at all. He should be called the "God Emperor."
"Emperor Ancestor..."
The Quasi-Supreme wanted to persuade him again, but the aura of the tall figure on the Supreme God Throne changed, and in an instant, the supreme divine power rose, and the entire clan fell silent.
All the God-Slaying Insect knelt before the steps, trembling with fear under the terrifying fluctuations, not daring to utter a single word.
" Ancient Domain..." The God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable's gaze was cold and sharp as he stared at the Shangqing Ancient Domain, a sacred place in Kun Court.
To seek the Immortal Court, one must first enter the Kun Realm. This has been an eternal law.
This is already 275,000 years into the Immortal Lord Era. The Two Lords of Immortal and Deep have been missing for 60,000 to 70,000 years, and have not been seen in two lifetimes. Everyone thought that the two Invincible One must have passed away, ending their legendary lives.
The lineage of the Godslayers migrated en masse, their endless swarm of insects stretching across the universe like a golden ocean, surging towards the Shangqing Ancient Domain.
"The blessings of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable should be exhausted after two hundred thousand years. I Immortal Lord, have looked down upon all ages and will be the master of the rise and fall of the human world. Kun Court shall be my palace for Reign Over All Under Heaven and guarding the four directions. From this day forward, it shall be the Divine Venerable Estate!" Thunder rumbled across the universe, and the supreme divine voice spread throughout all races. Countless beings were shocked. The God-Slaying Emperor was about to take over Kun Court. The two most prosperous supreme lineages erupted into the most intense collision.
People lamented once again that there are no Immortal of the Foreign Realm dynasties, nor Eternal scepters; all must eventually come to an end. Consider the Two Lords of Immortal and Deep, so astonishing, living in reverse through many lifetimes, defeating even the Heavenly Venerable of their time, yet in the end, their lineage still faced the danger of destruction.
Faced with a race of Dao-achievers at their peak, the Quasi-Supreme left behind in Kun Court changed color, completely unprepared for this turn of events. There were also God-Slaying Insect Clan in the Immortal Court, from the sacrificial altars of the Yuhua Divine Temple, including many Quasi-Supreme, but a pure-blooded Ancestral Insect had never been born.
More than 200,000 years!
This is the first time someone has ever attacked Kun Court, setting a new record.
The Quasi-Supreme of the Shangqing lineage resolutely rejected the unreasonable demands of the God-Slaying Clan, refusing to accept any conditions of submission. The pride of the Immortal Court remained unyielding and could not be broken.
The people here are all very strong, including many Quasi-Supreme, but they are still no match for the Imperial Clan of this era. In an instant, blood and flesh flew everywhere, Shangqing Sect suffered heavy casualties, with its battle lines being pushed back.
At the critical moment, all the creatures of the Kun Domain roared in unison, calling upon their ancient ancestors and praying for the return of the Supreme Clarity Dao Venerable to save them from their peril.
This is the ancestral star of the Shangqing lineage. The Killing Sword and array diagram of Lingbao Heavenly Venerable are buried in the sea. There are also descendants of Heavenly Venerable in Kun Court, which is part of the Immortal Court.
The Azure Crystal Altar was erected, and the incantation to summon the gods reached far and wide, spreading throughout the six directions and eight wastelands!
In a secret realm of the endless sea, an overwhelming pressure erupted, and the soaring Immortal-Slaying Patterns revived, then exploded, rushing towards the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, stopping the tragic scene of blood flowing and floating on the ground.
"Boom!"
The Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's Immortal-Slaying and Immortal-Killing Formation was revived, causing the Life Sea to surge. Four blood-soaked Killing Sword tore through space and time, cleaving open the laws of the Dao, and flew out from the depths of the sea. They were stained with the blood of the Lingbao Heavenly Venerable's descendants, and the blood swords trembled, as if they were about to come alive.
The moment the sword was born, a blood mist filled the air, and the shadow of the Immortal Slayer spread across the vast ocean, chilling everyone to the bone. In an instant, swarms of God-Slaying Insect turned to dust, becoming part of the sword's calamity.
"This weapon is powerful, but the one who commands it is too weak." The God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable appeared, looking down upon the Human Realm. His entire body shone with golden light, and his blood aura was overwhelming, making everyone's soul tremble. Behind him, endless golden God-Slaying Insect covered the sky and almost submerged the star field.
He arrived with overwhelming force, determined to break the Lingbao Formation Diagram —a domineering aura he possessed from birth. In an instant, a world-shaking battle erupted on the core divine star of the Kunlun lineage. No one could have imagined that the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable had encountered an adversary.
Why would a contemporary Heavenly Venerable care about a Quasi-Supreme ant, even if the other party possessed the Divine Formation Diagram of an ancient Heavenly Venerable?
However, the ending was unexpected. The Dao Diagram erupted with Wuliang Chaos light, and the fluctuations of the Perfect Dao Battle actually emanated from within it.
The roar of the Heavenly Venerable resounded throughout the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, shaking all the myriad realms. The Quasi-Supreme and saints of the God-Slaying Clan stared in disbelief at the shadow of the Heavenly Tomb.
Their invincible progenitor was shedding blood, the Divine Formation Diagram was revived to its peak, and in the center, a blood-red figure shattered the River of Time and returned to the Human World. The four swords in his hands were combined into one, and when he cleaved down, he was the one who annihilated the imperial lineage. The God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable a long roar that shook the universe. He fought with all his might, but he was still no match for him. The golden blood of the Insect Emperor Falling Star River, splashing up a brilliant rain of light...
Finally, the insect-like being was slain, its body, resembling True Dragon, falling into the Bitter Sea, its blood staining the ground. Lightning flashed and thunder roared in the sky, various runes appearing and colliding with the soaring blood light.
This was the Heaven's Cry; the world seemed to be mourning the fall of the Extreme Dao Supreme. Blood rain poured down, black lightning bolts appeared one after another, and scarlet blood flowed from the Void, turning the sacred Shangqing Dao Domain into a demonic realm.
No one had anticipated this outcome. The entire universe was in an uproar. All the Quasi-Supreme and Great Saint who learned of this situation were shaken to their core and were so shocked that they could hardly believe it.
The tragic end of the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable forged the immortal myth of Kun Court.
The Shangqing Ancient Domain actually possesses the power to suppress and kill those who have attained Dao!
Kun Court ignored everything from the outside world, and all the powerful figures came out together to annihilate the God-Slaying Clan.
The news reached Shangyu, causing considerable turmoil. The current deputy hall master of Chaos looked indifferent, eager to take out a celestial artifact and God-Slaying Clan.
"Treat them with courtesy, but they are rude as beasts. In my opinion, such creatures are not worthy of the Immortal Medicine!"
The golden-haired King stood with his hands behind his back, looking alone at the Immortal Palace in the center of the dojo. His bright golden eyes radiated wisps of True Solar Fire, and he felt very heavy-hearted about the deaths and injuries of Kun Court.
He comes from the Immortal Clan and is the eighteenth generation descendant of Golden Crow Zi. He is extremely powerful and his strength is extraordinary. He is only a hair's breadth away from Alternative Dao Attainment and possesses the Ancestral Artifact of the Golden Crow Clan.
" The Immortal Lord's decree is too lenient towards those outsiders." Another deputy hall master of the Time Hall shook his head, also expressing his disagreement.
The number of Divine Medicine and fruits is limited; once they are given to the outside world, there will be fewer for them.
When it comes to the struggle for resources, no one will back down.
"Three gifts Lifetime: Heavenly Venerable Gift, Dragon Coffin Congratulatory Gift, and Outstanding Talent Prize. I believe that in the future, these three gifts should be reviewed by Shangyu. Some people are not worthy of their positions, and giving the Immortal Medicine to these people would be aiding and abetting evil." The deputy hall master of the True Phoenix Hall also spoke up.
This one is even more direct, wanting to cut off all channels for the distribution of the Immortal Medicine.
The Heavenly Venerable Gift to the Lifetime Heavenly Venerable, and the Immortal Court should offer fruit as a gift to help those who have attained enlightenment to begin their second life.
The Dragon Coffin Congratulatory Gift He was a lucky person who arrived in the Great Luo Heaven riding Nine Dragons Pulling the Coffin. Among them, those with the deepest blessings were given an elixir of Immortal Medicine.
The Outstanding Talent Prize" reward is given at the end of the God and Demon Dao Stele.
In this Lifetime, there was no outstanding talent. The God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable passed through the God and Demon Dao Stele, but he was clearly a step behind and could not overcome the mark left behind by the Taichu. He missed the White Tiger Medicine Fruit, which became his obsession and eventually led to a tragedy.
However, Dragon Coffin Congratulatory Gift gave out two, which caused considerable dissatisfaction among the major clans of Shangyu, who felt it was inappropriate. But the Immortal Lord's decree suppressed it, and the law was not something they could change.
As for the change in the timing of the Heavenly Venerable Gift, there is a legal decree to follow.
For those who are old friends from the Golden Age, once the five-thousand-year time limit is reached, the Immortal Court will send Quasi-Supreme to escort them out of the Southern Heavenly Gate, and then send another one after a ten-thousand-year time limit.
Taichu obtained three Immortal Medicine fruits. At the Dao Banquet, Xiao Song personally gave them to him. After he attained enlightenment, he received them twice more, this time from the Bodhi Tree and the heart of Enlightenment Ancient Tea Tree, which are divine objects that can enhance one's enlightenment.
The Undying Mountain played a significant role in this, showing great affinity with the Taichu Saint Spirit Immortal Fetus...
(Going home, no updates tomorrow, will be back on Sunday for duty, will make up for it then, owes 2800 words by Sunday. Also changed the title, the Alternative Dao Attainment to Supreme is now called Heavenly Venerable, the one who attains enlightenment is called Heavenly Heart Supreme, or simply Heavenly Venerable, which is fundamentally different from the mythological Supreme Being.)
Chapter 755 The Fall of Wang Bo, Six Suns Across the Sky
Aside from those beings from that Lifetime, others lost this privilege. Even an ancient being like Di Que only had one Immortal Medicine in his Lifetime.
Under the changes brought about by the God-Slaying Heavenly Venerable, the Eagle Tokens of the Immortal Court Shangyu were activated. The Chaos Hall, the Time Hall, and the True Phoenix Hall jointly proposed to change the policy on the Elixir of Immortal Medicine for future Daoists. For example, the future Heavenly Venerable Gift would need to be approved by Shangyu.
"The title of the Heavenly Venerable should also be changed; it should be 'A Gift from the Immortal Court '!" said the Golden Crow King, his demeanor carrying an inherent coldness that looked down upon the Human Realm.
"This is going too far. The Heavenly Venerable is in harmony with the Dao Heavenly Heart, and is the supreme being of this Lifetime. We have no right to surpass him. Changing the ceremony to a bestowal is inappropriate."
The last Undying Mountain Female Saint Spirit spoke up, rejecting the proposal.
"The Supreme Being of this Lifetime, Venerable Yang, still exists. Who can claim to be the World Honored One?" the Golden Crow Quasi-Supreme roared, his aura terrifying. Above his head, there was a faint phantom of a great sun, its True Solar Fire surging and roaring, carrying the terror of the ages.
