Chapter 714: Setup
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
After the calamity brought by the Eternal Race was over, the sects in the Immortal Dao still needed time to clean up the aftermath. As the center of the Immortal Dao, the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm was naturally busy.
After the war ended, Mu Lingluo, Bai Qi, and White Dragon did not return immediately. They were all in the Heavenly Court, helping the Heavenly Court stabilize the Immortal Dao.
In the next thousand years, all sorts of information about this war spread like wildfire in the boundless world. The Immortal Dao squeezed into the eyes of the overlord orthodoxies in an extremely rude and unreasonable manner.
Ten thousand years later, the Immortal Dao Realm ushered in an unprecedented wave of visits. Orthodoxies from all over the boundless world came one after another, wanting to see the elegance of the Immortal Dao. It was all thanks to the twenty million years of unstinting propaganda from various sects of the Immortal Dao that they had left a good reputation in the boundless world. If they were guests, the Immortal Dao would naturally welcome them.
Ten thousand years had passed, and the number of Jiang Changsheng’s followers had skyrocketed. However, he was still immersed in refining the Taishi Nirvana Spear.
The restrictions on a Dao Origin Extreme Treasure could no longer be described by quantity. It was similar to a universe with complicated rules. Jiang Changsheng was immersed in it and felt as if he had experienced reincarnation.
Mu Lingluo, Bai Qi, and White Dragon returned together. The moment they entered the hall, their gazes were attracted by the Taishi Nirvana Spear.
The entire hall shone with the seven-colored light of the Taishi Nirvana Spear, causing their eyes to freeze.
At first glance, they felt that this treasure was the number one treasure in the Immortal Dao.
Bai Qi suddenly felt that her collection of magical treasures was merely so-so. However, she did not dare to have any improper thoughts. Looking at his master’s serious expression, she understood that this treasure was painstakingly created by her master and could not be passed on to others.
After watching for a while, they began to cultivate.
Time continued to flow like sand.
In the boundless world, there were countless domains, and it was endlessly vast. Different domains had different timescales, but time was passing and never returning.
After a hundred thousand years, Jiang Changsheng finally mastered the Taishi Nirvana Spear without any mishaps.
He held the Taishi Nirvana Spear in his hand. He liked the size of this Dao Origin Extreme Treasure more and more.
While he loved it, Jiang Changsheng also felt a lingering fear.
At the last moment of refining the restriction, a strong sense of oppression assaulted him, almost causing his Dao heart to collapse. This kind of oppression was indescribable. It was not the power of the Great Dao he knew, he could not explain what it was. If he had not used the power of the Primordial Great Dao to protect his Dao heart in time, an inner demon would have been left behind even if he survived.
In any case, he had successfully mastered the Taishi Nirvana Spear.
Feeling the endless power inside, he was filled with curiosity.
What kind of power was this?
It was not the power of the Great Dao that he knew.
Could it be that this spear came from outside the Great Dao?
Chaos gave birth to the Great Dao. What was there before chaos?
Primordial Chaos?
However, primordial chaos was only a description. No one knew what kind of scene it was.
Even though Jiang Changsheng grasped the power of the Taishi Nirvana Spear, he could not see through the essence and origin of this power. He could not even deduce its karma.
He put the Taishi Nirvana Spear into his sleeve and decided to study it more in the future.
Then, he took out the Great Dao Divine Weapon he had obtained from the Eternal Race and casually threw it before it disappeared from the hall.
Ever since the calamity of the Eternal Race passed, Jiang Shan and the few people controlled by the will of the Great Dao had recovered their rationality. However, the Immortal Dao was afraid that they would lose control again, so they created a separate world for them to live in.
Jiang Shan was cultivating under a waterfall. All these years, he felt vexed. What kind of power could manipulate his will?
He already knew about his fate as the Eternal Killing Star, but he only knew its name.
Even though he was already in the Zenith Heaven Realm, he still could not see through his own secrets.
Jiang Shan closed his eyes and endured the impact of the waterfall. However, his heart was extremely calm. He looked back at everything and searched for his true self to understand his fate.
At that very moment.
He suddenly felt something and suddenly opened his eyes.
His pupils dilated and a red light reflected in them. He subconsciously raised his right hand and grabbed the red light.
Heaven Realm, War God Palace.
The Celestial Emperor stood in the main hall and looked at the huge flag in front of him. He smiled and said, “As expected of a treasure personally refined by your grandfather. It can indeed mobilize the power of the Heavenly Dao. I have studied the Dao of weapon refinement for so many years, but I have never been able to refine such a supreme treasure.”
His tone was filled with joy without a trace of envy.
He had retired behind the scenes, but he would usually pay attention to the Heavenly Court and the Immortal Dao. When he heard that Jiang Jian had been granted the divine authority power of the War God, he was very happy. The Immortal Dao was too big now, so the divine authorities naturally had to be divided in detail. Only in this way could he not be chaotic in the face of a calamity.
Jiang Jian sat at the head of the table. He was not happy. Instead, he frowned and said with a worried expression, “The divine authority of the War God is too important. I’m afraid I won’t be able to carry it out well.”
Even though it was a divine authority for war, it was still about mobilizing the power of the entire Immortal Dao. He was afraid that if he did something wrong, there would be unimaginable consequences.
The Celestial Emperor understood his thoughts very well. Sometimes, power was not happiness, but pressure, especially as a member of the Jiang Clan.
However, the Celestial Emperor did not enlighten him. The divine authority had been bestowed, and he believed that Jiang Jian could adjust his state of mind.
After looking at it for a long time, the Celestial Emperor finally returned the flag to Jiang Jian.
Jiang Jian held the flag and said, “Father, more and more orthodoxies have come to negotiate with the Heavenly Court. There are even several overlord orthodoxies that have appeared. Their goals are different. Do you think my divine authority should be about facing the calamity or guarding against them?”
When he heard that, the Celestial Emperor stroked his beard and said with a smile, “That will depend on you. In fact, you don’t have to think too much. Pick up this flag and it will be considered as wielding divine authority. If you don’t take it, you will still be you. If you wish to guard against a calamity in advance, just do it.”
Jiang Jian nodded and said, “But then again, father, the Eternal Race can absorb the power of the Eternal Gods. As long as there is even a single Eternal God, they will be eternal. Don’t you think this is a very smart idea?”
“If the Jiang Clan can become the Eternal Race of the Immortal Dao, they can better protect the Immortal Dao. Although the Eternal Race is an enemy of the Immortal Dao and is very detestable, from the perspective of the boundless world, the Eternal Race did not cause trouble. This shows that they are deeply controlled by the Great Dao.”
The Celestial Emperor shook his head and said, “Don’t think about it. There are pros and cons to everything. Besides, do you know your grandfather’s impression of the Eternal Race?”
Jiang Jian forced a smile. He had thought too much.
In fact, he was not the only one. The Eternal Race had also brought indelible shock to the sects and races in the Immortal Dao.
Especially after that war, more and more orthodoxies brought information about the Eternal Race, making them more and more aware of how terrifying the Eternal Race was.
In the war 100,000 years ago, before the Dao Ancestor took action, the pressure the Eternal Race gave them was still unforgettable.
The father and son began to talk about their recent cultivation.
After the calamity of the Eternal Race, another Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal was born in the Immortal Dao, which made the Jiang Clan even more anxious.
Jiang Hongchen proposed to use Jiang Yuan’s bloodline method to forcefully promote Jiang Tianming to a Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal. However, if he did so, the Jiang Clan would have to pay a certain price, which might lead to disunity within the Jiang Clan.
“Father, I think doing this will cause a bad influence. The attraction of strength is unimaginable. There will always be people who would do anything for power,” Jiang Jian said seriously.
Just as the Celestial Emperor was about to speak, the War God Palace suddenly trembled.
The father and son’s expressions changed drastically as they looked at a corner of the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm.
The two of them looked at each other and disappeared from the hall.
In the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng was comprehending the fragments of the Great Dao that were formed after the Eternal Dao Policy was shattered when he was suddenly interrupted by a powerful aura.
Of course, this aura was only very strong for the Immortal Dao; it was nothing in Jiang Changsheng’s eyes.
Jiang Changsheng opened his eyes with anticipation.
“This kid has mastered that Great Dao Divine Weapon so quickly…”
Jiang Changsheng raised his eyebrows in curiosity.
As expected, one needed to be comprehensive when talking about talent. One could not only look at one aspect.
When he opened his eyes, Bai Qi immediately came over and asked, “Master, this aura comes from the world where Jiang Shan is. Will there be any trouble?”
Jiang Changsheng answered, “Nothing wrong. It’s just an additional Great Dao Divine Weapon.”
Great Dao Divine Weapon!
Bai Qi widened her eyes. The reputation of Great Dao Divine Weapons had long been spread to the Immortal Dao, and Jiang Yi relied on it to create an invincible reputation.
“Jiang Shan obtained a Great Dao Divine Weapon? How is that possible? Why haven’t I heard of a second Great Dao Divine Weapon? Could it be that Master gave it to him?” Bai Qi hastily asked.
Mu Lingluo was also startled and opened her eyes to look.
Jiang Changsheng nodded slightly, which piqued Bai Qi’s interest. She then immediately disappeared from the hall to join in the fun.
Jiang Changsheng looked at Mu Lingluo and asked with a smile, “Do you want a Great Dao Divine Weapon?”
Mu Lingluo immediately shook her head and said, “I don’t need it.”
Jiang Changsheng looked at her deeply and stood up.
“Why are you going to?” Mu Lingluo asked curiously.
“I’m going to test the abilities of a Great Dao Divine Weapon. Do you want to join me?” Jiang Changsheng smiled.
When Mu Lingluo heard that, she stood up and asked, “How do I test it?”
Jiang Changsheng smiled and said, “Coincidentally, those two boys are in the Immortal Dao. Let’s capture them and set up a trap.”
Mu Lingluo raised her eyebrows and a smile surfaced in her eyes.
Both of them had the same thoughts. Cultivation was boring, so it was a good time to find some fun. Moreover, their prank could also train the younger generation.
Under the sky, Jiang Shan was suspended in mid-air, his killing intent burning like blood flames. He held a blood-colored staff with a solemn expression.
He had already made the Great Dao Divine Weapon recognize him as its master, but it was precisely because of this that he could sense the horror of this divine weapon.
As the Eternal Killer Star, he was also frightened by the killing intent in the divine weapon. He was worried that he would not be able to control this power, but he was instinctively infatuated with it and could not part with it.
Several figures were watching from afar, and none of them dared to approach.
A black light descended from the sky and landed in front of Jiang Shan. It was Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi held his divine weapon in his hand and stared at the blood-colored staff in Jiang Shan’s hand. He smiled and said, “As expected, it’s a Great Dao Divine Weapon. What a good opportunity. The Great Dao Divine Weapon in your hand even scares my divine weapon.”
He and Jiang Shan were biological brothers. When he was young, he had cultivated with Jiang Shan and the two of them had an extremely good relationship. For Jiang Yi, other than Jiang Tianming who had the best relationship with him, the only person close to him in the Jiang Clan was Jiang Shan.
Jiang Shan took a deep breath and was about to ask more questions when the world in front of him suddenly spun and became blurry.
