Chapter 387: Immortal Emperor Pill, Return to Godhood
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Lu Shenzhou did not know why he had asked Li Canghai to stay. Was it to deal with the Dao Ancestor?
His hatred for the Dao Ancestor was not that deep. Instead, he was unwilling and curious.
He even looked forward to seeing the Dao Ancestor again.
What kind of existence could look down on the Divine Martial Realm? Could the Divine Martial Realm not do anything to him?
And those unimaginable abilities…
Thinking of this, Lu Shenzhou’s expression softened. He guessed that Li Canghai must be related to the Dao Ancestor. In that case, he would treat Li Canghai well.
The Dao Ancestor shone with boundless radiance, but his true appearance was not revealed. Perhaps the Dao Ancestor was someone Li Canghai knew, but he did not know.
While Lu Shenzhou was deep in thought, Li Canghai also had many thoughts in his mind.
Compared to Lu Shenzhou’s curiosity, he was more fearful and confused.
In his eyes, the Dao Ancestor was the murderer who killed his sweetheart and his close friend. Even the Divine Martial Realm could not do anything to him. How could he not be afraid when such an existence deliberately kept him alive?
He was not afraid of death, but he was afraid that the Dao Ancestor would use him.
In ancient legends, there were many evil spirits who tempted people’s hearts, causing martial artists to step into the abyss and become the scum of the Human Race that had left a bad name for eternity.
Compared to life and death, Li Canghai cared more about reputation.
Lu Shenzhou said, “Go back and wait. If you want to achieve great things, control your temper and turn hatred and anger into motivation for training.”
Li Canghai took a deep breath, nodded slowly, and turned to leave.
Lu Shenzhou looked at his back and shook his head.
After a while, a figure appeared out of thin air in front of Lu Shenzhou. The martial artist wore a brocade blue robe. He had an ordinary appearance, but his aura was extraordinary.
“Venerable, two more God Punishment Army have been mobilized. The Martial Lord, Dugu Duo, has also personally set off.”
The blue-robed man said in a low voice, and his eyes revealed a beast-like ferocity.
Lu Shenzhou opened his eyes and his aura suddenly changed. He had once again become the Divine Martial Venerable that was famous throughout the three thousand worlds and looked down on everyone.
“Hmph, Dugu Duo is bullying me with his status as a Martial Lord. Do you really think I’m an idiot like Ye Shenkong who only knows how to train?” Lu Shenzhou mocked, his tone full of killing intent.
The blue-robed man said, “We will take action at any time once the Venerable gives the order!”
Lu Shenzhou looked at the horizon, and his expression returned to normal.
“We’re waiting for another person.”
The blue-robed man was slightly stunned, but he did not ask further.
“The great calamity is about to arrive, and the wind is about to blow. Whether we rise with the wind or perish with the wind will depend on our abilities.”
Lu Shenzhou muttered to himself. The corners of his mouth curled up into an unruly smile.
Time passed.
It was the 399th year of the Dingtian Era. This year, Jiang Ziyu was prepared to cede the throne and a new round of apotheosis was about to begin.
Ever since he ascended the throne, the growth of Jiang Ziyu’s strength had slowed down. Now that Heavenly Jing had stabilized, he felt that it was time to cede the throne.
Jiang Xiu had been the crown prince for more than three hundred years, and he could no longer restrain himself.
There was a huge difference between being second only to one person and being supreme. The higher one stood, the more they wanted to take a step forward.
After so many years of development, the Investiture of the Gods had been growing. There were now 49 more legitimate gods. Coupled with the original position, it was enough.
The number of legitimate gods could be reduced. It was fine as long as there were more Heavenly Soldiers and divine servants. Moreover, there would be more meritorious officials when the dynasty was established than in the future.
The God -Investiture Ceremony had become the grandest festival in Heavenly Jing. Now that Heavenly Jing was no longer the same as before, those vassal races had also come to watch and even held expectations.
This time, the Investiture of the Gods was presided over by Chen Li, and Jiang Changsheng would not appear in person. He handed the Investiture of the Gods to Chen Li, and for this, Chen Li was flattered. With this all-out effort, he completely confirmed his identity as a Great Heavenly Lord.
Within the Purple Cloud Palace.
Mu Lingluo smiled and asked, “Which heaven will we stay on after Ziyu becomes the Celestial Emperor?”
Jiang Changsheng was currently concocting pills when he answered, “Tenth
Heaven. We will ascend higher in the future.”
Generations of Immortal Gods would appear in the Heavenly Court, and there would be a day when the seniority culture would appear. He wanted to make it an honor to live in the sky and become a symbol of status.
Bai Qi leaned on one side and asked with a smile, “Master, when are you going to give birth to another son?”
Mu Lingluo looked at Jiang Changsheng expectantly.
Jiang Changsheng controlled the Samadhi True Fire and did not reply.
Another one?
Forget it.
He already had enough descendants, and he did not want to spend any more energy worrying about them.
“Speaking of which, Ji Wujun and Yu Yanyi still miss you and want to stay in the Purple Cloud Palace…”
Bai Qi rolled her eyes and casually said. She did not usually stay by Jiang Changsheng’s side and would often leave the Purple Cloud Palace to rope in people.
She knew that the Heavenly Court would become larger and larger in the future, and it was most important to establish her own network.
“If you continue to talk nonsense, I’ll throw you out and let them replace you.”
“Forget it. Who do they think they are? It’s better if I accompany you. You’ll feel more comfortable!”
Bai Qi chuckled and did not mention it anymore.
Mu Lingluo changed the topic and curiously asked, “Can this pill really allow one to break through to the Martial Emperor Realm in an instant?”
Jiang Changsheng said, “That’s right, but this pill will squeeze out all your potential. After becoming a Martial Emperor, it will be hard to improve further.’
The Grand Alchemy Dao recorded all sorts of medicinal pills, and he had concocted them according to the recipe of the Immortal Emperor Pill.
After consuming one Immortal Emperor Pill, one would immediately become an immortal.
However, the medicinal ingredients for the Immortal Emperor Pill were extremely precious and rare. None of the core ingredients could be found in the Kunlun Field at all. He could only find some medicinal ingredients with similar medicinal efficacy, but the effect would be greatly reduced. At most, one would only reach the Heaven and Earth Emperor realm.
At present, the medicinal ingredients collected by the Heavenly Court were only enough to produce a hundred Martial Emperor Pills. This was already the maximum number of medicinal ingredients that the entire Kunlun Field could gather. Moreover, Jiang Changsheng did not have a 100% success rate refining it. Having a 30% success rate in concocting the pill already meant that he was a genius in alchemy.
Even though he had the Grand Alchemy Dao, he still had to rely on himself to practice his alchemy skills.
The effect of the Martial Emperor Pill was not for the people of the Heavenly
Court. With the luck of the Investiture of the Gods and the luck of the Heavenly Court, the Heavenly Soldiers would reach the Martial Emperor Realm sooner or later. They just needed time. The Martial Emperor Pill was reserved for Heavenly Jing.
As soon as Jiang Ziyu ascended to become an immortal, he would draw away the elites of Heavenly Jing. Once that happened, Jiang Xiu needed his own force to stabilize the dynasty and rope in people’s hearts.
Mu Lingluo sat on one side and stared at Jiang Changsheng with a smile on her face.
Naturally, she knew that Jiang Changsheng was concocting medicinal pills for his grandson. Ever since he established the Heavenly Court, the distance between him and the people around him had clearly increased. Even though they were in the same place, his descendants and old friends did not dare to easily look for him.
She was also worried that Jiang Changsheng would sever his seven emotions and six sensory pleasures after recovering his identity as the Ancestor of All Immortals. From the looks of it, she was overthinking it.
Jiang Changsheng sensed her intentions and turned to wink at her, making her smile even more.
Jiang Changsheng was unwilling to put on airs with the people around him. When he first arrived in this world, he hoped that he could cultivate alone for the rest of his life. However, after experiencing so much, he cherished the people around him more and more.
The path of pursuing the Great Dao did not have to be lonely!
A year later.
After Jiang Changsheng finished concocting the pill, he only managed to produce 21 Martial Emperor Pills. This proved that he was not extremely talented in alchemy, but he was not bad either.
The apotheosis had also ended. Jiang Ziyu became the Celestial Emperor and brought 49 legitimate gods and 100,000 soldiers and generals to the Heavenly Court. Jiang Xiu officially ascended the throne and changed the era name to Inherited Heaven.
The Inherited Heaven Era!
Jiang Changsheng personally descended to the mortal world to meet Jiang Xiu alone and gave him the Martial Emperor Pills.
After receiving the pills, Jiang Xiu was ecstatic and hastily thanked his grandfather. The relationship between grandfather and grandson had also become much closer.
In the Ninth Heaven, Jiang Ziyu wore the Celestial Emperor’s robe and sat on the throne as he enjoyed the aftertaste.
The Immortal Gods had dispersed, leaving only Chen Li, who was looking at him with a smile.
“Is this the position of the Celestial Emperor? The view here is so broad.”
Jiang Ziyu sighed with emotion. He was not exaggerating. The throne of the Celestial Emperor had a special restriction that allowed one to look down on the world. This experience was extremely wonderful, and only those sitting on it knew about it.
Chen Li smiled and said, “Your Majesty, the Heavenly Court is more complicated than Heavenly Jing. It involves many regions and races. You have to be prepared.”
“Did my father suffer when he was the Celestial Emperor?”
“Of course not.’
Chen Li felt helpless. Looking at Jiang Ziyu’s smile, he felt his liver ache.
He was clearly an immortal god, but he also felt the pain of a mortal.
Then, Chen Li began to introduce the current affairs of the Heavenly Court. Jiang Ziyu stopped teasing and listened attentively. This was his first time here, so he had to prove himself. Fortunately, most of the people in the immortal class were his former subordinates, so he did not have to win over people’s hearts.
On the other side.
Tenth Heaven, above the sea of clouds, the Flame Lord sat there, feeling uneasy.
He had been looking forward to meeting the Dao Ancestor, but on this day, he was very nervous.
After witnessing the magnificence of the Investiture of the Gods, his understanding was shattered.
This was definitely not martial arts!
Coupled with his years of experience, his respect for the Dao Ancestor began to turn into admiration.
However, he was not a legitimate god. Just as he was in a daze, one of the
Heavenly Lords sent him a voice transmission and asked him to go to the
Heavenly Court together. He was told the Dao Ancestor wanted to see him.
It had been several days since Chen Li brought him to the Tenth Heaven, and he had only been told to wait. As a newcomer, he could only wait nervously. However, the longer he waited, the more his imagination ran wild.
He was even worried that the Dao Ancestor would not tolerate him. After all, he had destroyed so many martial worlds and committed grave sins.
If Immortal Gods really existed and were not just powerful martial artists, then the merit and karma that were promoted in the world would definitely exist.
He had no intention of running away. Instead, he was thinking about how to make up for it.
As he thought about it, a bell suddenly sounded in his mind, shocking his soul. He fell into a trance and closed his eyes.
Half a day later, the Flame Lord woke up. He slowly opened his eyes, and a glint flashed past his eyes.
“Is this the Immortal Dao…”
Just like Taishi Changce, Hei Hou, Chang Yaoling and Ye Zhan, the Flame Lord was convinced by everything in the Mental Wander Realm.
It was definitely not a martial arts technique!
A martial arts technique could not connect the dreams of so many beings together!
The Flame Lord suddenly felt something and looked up. His expression changed drastically as he hastily turned over and knelt on the sea of clouds.
“Dao… Dao Ancestor…”
The Flame Lord’s voice trembled as he pressed his forehead against the cloud, not daring to look at Jiang Changsheng.
The Dao Ancestor who sat on the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin was mysterious and domineering. The Flame Lord only took a quick glance and the scene was deeply imprinted in his mind. He could not forget it. Even though he did not see the true appearance of the Dao Ancestor, his posture and throne shocked him.
After wandering in the Xuanhuang Great World for so long, he had never seen such a figure. It was indescribable.
“Yan Xu, member of the Yan Clan, you have sinned greatly. Your merit cannot offset your karma and you cannot become an immortal god.
Jiang Changsheng’s voice slowly fell and his words were indifferent, causing the Flame Lord’s heart to sink to the bottom.
“However, I can give you and the Yan Clan another chance..”
