1787 Life Opportunity, Chu Kuangren Out of Closed-door Meditation, Kingdom Guardian
Wherever the green arc-shaped light reached, life flourished.
All kinds of natural resources and ingredients appeared in succession. Luo Shui also sensed the power contained in the green light.
She was heavily injured from the battle with the Heavenly Dao Sect, but when she was basking in the green light, she felt a strong vigor in her body, and her injuries started to recover.
“What a strong life energy!”
Luo Shui’s eyes widened in disbelief.
She looked at the natural resources and treasures that sprung out from the ground and gulped. She had a feeling that one piece of those resources could help her greatly in her cultivation.
Yet, all the rare resources and treasures grew on the ground like t weeds.
What was the source of the green arc-shaped light?
She headed to the source of the green arc light and soon arrived at a mountain peak. She had searched the place before but found nothing.
Yet now, it seemed like the space around the mountain peak was distorted and someone had placed heavy restriction seals around.
“Is this where the King is?” Luo Shui’s eyes shone.
She waited patiently as the green arc-shaped light continued to scatter outward and cover the entire planet with life.
The ancient planet was not originally rich in spiritual energy and had limited resources.
Now that it was basking in life energy, it flourished and produced all kinds of resources. It was a planet of treasures.
Luo Shui cultivated on the mountain peak, and with the help of the green arc-shaped light, her cultivation level rose rapidly.
She soon broke through the Third-, Fifth-, and Seventh-grade True Immortal Realm to the Ninth. She only slowed down when she was near the Gilded Immortal Realm.
“What terrifying energy. What is it exactly?” Luo Shui muttered.
“The Chaos Green Lotus controls creation and destruction. This is the lotus’ creation power.”
With that, she looked at the green arc-shaped light, and even she could not help but be impressed by it. “The lotus is amazing.”
Then, the space around the mountain peak started to shake.
Rippled started appearing in space, and a figure in white emerged from the void in a cross-legged sitting posture.
Just by looking at his back, one could feel his astounding transcendental presence.
It was a mystical feeling.
However, Luo Shui was deeply moved because she was familiar with the figure.
It was the figure who led Firmament Star out of the Dark Ages and broke free from the Gods’ rule. The people of the planet owed him their freedom.
It was the figure who founded the empire and made it a prominent force in the universe.
“My King”
A zeal appeared in Luo Shui’s eyes as she stared at the figure.
Even the Desire Flower was emotional seeing the person.
The man possessed an incredible charm that seemed to make everyone around him unconsciously admire or trust him with fervor.
Chu Kuangren savored the energy in his body and smiled in satisfaction.
He stood up and turned around to Luo Shui. “Luo Shui, it’s been a while.”
Luo Shui was one of the Firmament Star’s Daoist Celestials.
Now, with Firmament Star growing as an empire, she had also become a True Immortal.
“My King”
Luo Shui knelt before him sincerely and said, “Welcome back, my King.”
“How’s Firmament Star?”
“Decades ago, news of your fall spread. The Empire was in turmoil, but with the Queen’s power, the empire is still going strong. However, other forces have been trying to annex our territories recently,” Luo Shui said.
Chu Kuangren nodded when he heard Luo Shui’s update. “Don’t worry. Now that I’m back, they’re all going to die.”
“With you here, my King, the empire doesn’t need to worry anymore.”
Luo Shui trusted the man with all her heart.
“Desire Flower, you did great.” Chu Kuangren looked at the Desire Flower and was referring to her saving Luo Shui earlier.
“I was just having a stretch after waking up from a nap in that universe,” the Desire Flower said as she yawned.
Due to the different Great Dao’s will and rules, the Desire Flower’s power, which originated from people’s desires in Pan Gu Universe, was restricted in the Central Heaven Universe. To conserve her energy, she went into a deep slumber and only woke up when Chu Kuangren came back.
As for Chu Kuangren, his fate was beyond the Great Dao of all the universes, so the Great Dao’s will and rules could not restrict him.
“Let’s go back to the empire for a while,” Chu Kuangren said.
Meanwhile, at Firmament Empire, Gu Linglong and the other elders of the empire gathered in front of a massive furnace.
Countless rare metals melted in the furnace to form the shape of a sword that emanated a strong sword intent as it took shape.
“Can we succeed this time?”
Gu Linglong, in her golden dragon robes, stared at the furnace with anticipation.
With the strongest support of the empire, the Five Ways Divine Shadow Army, in deep slumber and the news of Chu Kuangren’s fall spreading like wildfire, many forces were eyeing to annex the empire.
Everyone wanted a piece of the dying empire, or so they assumed.
While handling internal affairs and fending off external threats, Gu Lingling gathered rare metals from all over the universe to forge a Kingdom Guardian Weapon.
It was not a thoughtless move.
She coincidentally came across a forging technique. It was an extremely smart technique, and together with the empire’s ability to gather all kinds of rare Immortal Metals, the weapon they sought to forge would bear unimaginable power, rivaling even a Great Perfected Arch Gilded Immortal.
However, they had tried forging it thrice, and all ended up in failure.
The remaining amount of rare metals was only enough for them to try one more time.
Terrifying flames burst from the furnace, releasing a powerful aura. Every Immortal at the scene was frightened.
“Roar!”
Suddenly, a dragon’s roar sounded from within the furnace.
Then, eight dragons gathered around the weapon they forged, and a boundless divine aura scattered.
“The eight dragons have appeared! The forging is a success!”
The cultivators around the furnace were delighted.
The flame in the furnace grew so much stronger that it pushed all the Immortals away.
In the end, the eight fiery dragons surrounded the weapon before they flew into the sky, dying the sky red, and the entire planet was shaking.
The cultivators of the empire were over the moon.
“It’s the Divine Weapon! The Divine Weapon has been forged!”
“The Queen did it!”
After the eight dragons dissipated, a black iron sword fell from the sky and plunged into the ground in front of the palace.
Everyone went over to take a look, but they were surprised and disappointed by what they found.
The iron sword was pitch-black and rusty, and it looked no different than a piece of metal. It did not even have sword qi nor the mighty aura that it emanated earlier.
“Did we fail?”
“We failed. This isn’t a Divine Weapon. It’s just a piece of metal.”
The Immortals shook their heads in disappointment.
They had invested a lot of effort and resources only to forge nothing but a useless metal.
Anyone would be devastated by the outcome.
Elder Ruyan looked at Gu Linglong with worry.
She knew Gu Linglong barely ate or slept in recent days because of the forging, yet the outcome was not only disappointing but also discouraging.
Gu Linglong was the most disappointed and sad among the others.
As though she noticed Elder Ruyan’s concern, Gu Linglong inhaled deeply and looked at her with determination. “Even without the sword, I can protect the empire!”
