Chapter 566: Zenith Heaven Immortal Land
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Whether it’s the Dao Ancestor or not, the Martial Dao Void is protected by an existence that can kill a Yan Lord. Moreover, this existence does not come from the Martial Dao. Just this news is enough to determine that the Martial Dao cannot transcend.”
The figure of light spoke in an impatient tone, causing Cangshi Heaven to calm down.
He felt too aggrieved. He had personally rushed here from the inner void, but not only did he fail to defend the Martial Dao, but he even hastened the collapse of the Martial Dao. He had hidden here with the Divine Martial Realm and endured humiliation for so many years, but in the end, he received such an outcome.
How was he to explain to his subordinates?
But when he thought of facing an existence that could kill a Yan Lord, his heart was filled with lingering fear.
He had to admit that he was lucky. If he had taken action before that Yan Lord, he might have died.
“How difficult is it to transcend an orthodoxy? In any case, you’ve done your best. All that’s left is to admit defeat and not struggle in vain. That way, everyone can suffer less.”
The tone of the light shadow softened. He sighed and said, “You are not to blame for this. The interference of forces from the boundless world is unreasonable and unfair. Even though there might be no Martial Dao, the Martial Dao practitioners are still here. It is time to give up protecting our homeland and pursue our opportunities.”
Cangshi Heaven was silent.
He could only grit his teeth and nod. He had no other choice.
After the figure disappeared from the hall, Cangshi Heaven’s heart was in a mess. Right now, he was thinking about how to explain to the people below.
After the orthodoxy revival function ended, Jiang Changsheng devoted himself to cultivation. After the concept of supremacy over the Immortal Dao was born, his Dao heart began to subtly change.
From now on, he would prioritize the development of the Immortal Dao and no longer think about letting nature take its course.
He already had a plan in mind and would implement it after the backlash subsided.
In the following years, the Mental Wander Realm finally discovered the existence of the Fourth Heaven Realm. As soon as the news broke out, it caused a huge commotion. Due to the rise of the Imperial Race of the Immortal Dao, the Second Heaven Realm developed rapidly due to its proximity to the 3,000 worlds. It was on the verge of surpassing the First Heaven Realm. Now, the even more mysterious Fourth Heaven Realm had appeared. As more and more cultivators found the Fourth Heaven Realm and discovered that it was far larger than the other realms, it could even be said that it was the largest world in the entire Endless Void. Such a vast world meant more opportunities. How could the believers not be excited?
The Immortal Gods of the Heavenly Court were worried. The Heavenly Court was originally established to control the Immortal Dao. However, as the Second Heaven Realm and the Third Heaven Realm were no longer under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Court, it had already challenged the authority of the Immortal Gods. Now that the Fourth Heaven Realm had appeared, wouldn’t the Heavenly Court be reduced to a sect in the long run?
The Kunlun Field and the First Heaven combined were not as large as one side of the Fourth Heaven Realm. Naturally, the Immortal Gods felt uncomfortable with such a comparison.
More and more immortals began to seek an audience with the Celestial Emperor, hoping that he could pay a visit to the Dao Ancestor.
On this day.
The Celestial Emperor went to the 33rd Heaven to pay his respects to Jiang Changsheng.
Jiang Changsheng allowed him to enter the hall, but he realized that there was no sign of Bai Qi or White Dragon. He was secretly curious. He did not know when Bai Qi started to dislike wandering around the Heavenly Court. Instead, her whereabouts had become mysterious.
Could she have gone to the Fourth Heaven Realm?
Thinking of this, the Celestial Emperor’s heart trembled.
Did his father think that he was too greedy for pleasure?
Thinking about it carefully, he had indeed lived a comfortable life in the past hundred thousand years, especially when Jiang Yi surpassed him and established the Dark Imperial Court. After cooperating with him internally and externally, he had the thought of ceding his position over to the younger generation.
No matter how hard he tried, he was still surpassed by his son. He was both disappointed and proud. Therefore, over the years, he had excavated the talents of his descendants. He also had arranged for his children to guard a region and train. Even the imperial bloodline of the Jiang Clan had obtained his favor.
The Celestial Emperor took a deep breath and stopped thinking about it. He came to Jiang Changsheng and bowed respectfully.
“Greetings, father.”
The Celestial Emperor looked up at his father and saw him opening his eyes.
When their eyes met, the Celestial Emperor’s heart skipped a beat.
Even though they were biological father and son, the disparity in their cultivation levels was huge. Additionally, they had not seen each other for more than a hundred thousand years. It was equivalent to not meeting each other for two-thirds of their lives. How could he not feel unfamiliar with his father?
Jiang Changsheng stared at him and asked, “Are you here for the Heavenly Court?”
The Celestial Emperor knelt before Jiang Changsheng and gritted his teeth. “That’s right, father. Don’t you think the Heavenly Court has deviated from your original plan?”
“Then do you think it’s my problem or yours?”
THe Celestial Emperor panicked even more. He realized that his father’s attitude was even stricter than he remembered. It seemed like his father was really dissatisfied with him.
The Celestial Emperor quickly answered, “Naturally, I have my own problems, but the development of the Immortal Dao is too fast for the Heavenly Court to keep up…
Jiang Changsheng shook his head and said, “What do you mean it was too fast to keep up? You just have to make those leaders bow their heads and you will be able to gain more control. In the end, you have too much benevolence in your heart. The Immortal Gods have bound you and made you lose your status as the emperor of the world. In your heart, the Immortal Gods are absolutely just. As long as others don’t provoke you, you won’t be able to take action.”
“In the human world, Luck Dynasties only need to protect the interests of their land. However, you feel that the Immortal Gods should aim for the benefit of living beings and cannot be unfair in the slightest. Therefore, even if your son makes a mistake, you will not ignore it. But because of this, others can use kindness and benevolence to restrict you.”
Jiang Changsheng’s words touched the heart of the Celestial Emperor. The strategy of the Heavenly Court was never to expand savagely. The places where they expanded were filled with injustice and they had to stand on the side of righteousness. Because of this strategy, the Immortal Gods were tired of communicating and negotiating with the outside world. As time passed, they lost the motivation to expand.
Especially after the rise of the Dark Imperial Court, the Celestial Emperor completely put down his ambitions.
Jiang Changsheng said, “Do you regard Jiang Yi as the next Celestial Emperor?
His talents are better than yours, and his methods are even more domineering than yours.”
The Celestial Emperor wanted to say something but hesitated. He did not know how to answer.
He did have such thoughts.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the Celestial Emperor and sighed.
He did not even need to guess the Celestial Emperor’s thoughts because he could hear it.
“Father, I… In fact, I have been the Celestial Emperor for long enough. I should give up my position…” The Celestial Emperor gritted his teeth.
He did want to retreat. He also wanted to stop and cultivate well and ignore the world.
After being the Celestial Emperor for 140 ,ooo years, he was indeed tired.
Jiang Changsheng supported his knees with his hands and stretched his neck. He leaned forward and his expression was so indifferent that the Celestial Emperor lowered his head.
“Do you think the position of Celestial Emperor is like the throne? Do you think you can be the Celestial Emperor just because you want to be one?”
This was the first time Jiang Changsheng had spoken in such a serious tone, and it caused the Celestial Emperor’s heart to beat wildly.
“Once the future generations know that the position of Celestial Emperor can be changed, do you know the consequences?”
“Ziyu, everyone in this world has their own responsibilities, and you have to bear this responsibility for being my only son. Why do you think I only have you as my only son?”
The Celestial Emperor was silent as he had mixed feelings.
Should he be the eternal Celestial Emperor?
At that moment, he suddenly understood his mother’s choice. As the only woman of the Dao Ancestor, she did not touch the power of the Heavenly Court. It turned out that she had seen through everything.
The Celestial Emperor had no intention of blaming his father, but he was helpless about his fate.
He looked up at Jiang Changsheng and asked, “Father, since the position of
Celestial Emperor will always belong to me, as long as it does not harm the Immortal Dao and prevents all beings from suffering, I can do whatever I want, right?”
He understood that his father was not only teaching him a lesson, but also reminding him.
If his position as the Celestial Emperor was fixed, then why would he have so many worries?
After he thought it through, the Celestial Emperor’s expression was no longer weak. Instead, there was a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes.
“That’s right!”
Jiang Changsheng did not allow any refutation.
He continued, “The Heavenly Court has the Investiture of the Gods and the Earthly Immortal Dao Tablet. The luck of the Immortal Dao is mainly inherited from the Heavenly Court. The stronger the Heavenly Court is, the more beneficial it will be for the Immortal Gods. This calamity should also end soon. The calamity has lasted for hundreds of thousands of years, and everyone in the 3000 worlds have suffered. However, the calamity is also an opportunity for the strong. Since all you see are the strong, you can’t feel the suffering of the weak.”
“As long as the current Heavenly Court pacifies the turmoil in the 3000 worlds, no matter what the process is, it will be a merit!”
After the Celestial Emperor heard that, he completely recovered his spirit.
He revealed a smile and said, “In that case, it’s time for the 3000 worlds to start a war between gods, just in time to absorb the Fourth Heaven Realm!”
Jiang Changsheng had no objections. He did not have any prejudice against the Heaven Realms, but there must be a force to keep them in check. Otherwise, the Heaven Realms would only let go of the cause of the disaster.
The father and son did not chat much. The Celestial Emperor soon bid farewell and left. After walking out of the Purple Cloud Palace, he turned to look at the closed door.
He felt that his father had changed and become more dignified.
Since his father had changed, he had to change too.
“The Immortal Dao should completely replace the Martial Dao.”
Even though the Celestial Emperor felt that he would be very tired once he made such a decision, he was also looking forward to the future of the 3000 worlds belonging to the immortal Dao.
Jiang Changsheng looked at the Celestial Emperor’s departure and calculated with his fingers, revealing a satisfied expression.
The time for the Immortal Dao to rule the Great Dao Void had been shortened. It seemed like this conversation was effective.
He did not give the Celestial Emperor a treasure because he did not need it. Other than the luck of the heavenly court, he still had a trump card in his hands.
And that was his sons, especially Jiang Yi!
Jiang Changsheng raised his head and looked outside the Endless Void. The Limitless Eyes of Heaven and Earth shuttled towards his clone.
In the vast void of the boundless world, the All Heavens Great Dao Tree was like a god of creation, and his clone was on it.
“It’s time to create a new Heaven Realm and protect this divine tree.”
Jiang Changsheng thought silently and the corners of his mouth curled up.
Recently, a newbie had appeared in the Mental Wander Realm, a newbie whose strength was unknown to all believers.
Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor!
Jiang Changsheng was prepared to let the Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor become the second Zenith Heaven Immortal and protect the All Heavens Great Dao Tree. The Heaven Realm beneath the All Heavens Great Dao Tree was the realm where the Immortal Dao would soon ascend.
Let’s call it the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm!
At that moment, in the Mental Wander Realm, a strong and robust monk was walking above the sea of clouds. He was like a martial monk with a furious expression, but his eyes were filled with curiosity.
He was the Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor. Without a golden body, he looked very much like a martial artist.
“This is definitely not a dream. It is impossible for a dream to implicate so many living beings and maintain it.”
The Ten Thousand Buddha Ancestor silently thought. He had always had an idea, and that was to create a pure land.
However, he had no idea how to start it.
However, ever since he experienced the Mental Wander Realm, he knew what the pure land he wanted should be like..
