Chapter 1175: The Heavens are boiling, and the power of Destiny
The Nine Heavens Armor and the Cloud Realm Quadrant Flag, both unimaginable treasures capable of suppressing a lineage for countless years, now transformed into two divine lights and merged into the Conferring Immortals altar.
Instantly, waves of radiance shimmered, and the resonance of the Grand Dao echoed across the heavens and world. A golden lotus spun and blossomed into a dazzling light, leaving all ministers and citizens in awe.
The Conferring Immortals altar resembled an invisible abyss, dark and unfathomable, seemingly connected to a vast world. The faint aura emanating from it caused everyone’s bodies to tremble, making them hesitant to approach, fearing being engulfed.
Even Gu Changge and those behind him, including Yu Mingkong, watched silently, antic.i.p.ating the appearance of a halo on the immortal monuments.
Exchanging two immortal artifacts for one Sealing Immortality Decree is deemed appropriate in the present circ.u.mstances.
Yin Mei, dressed elegantly and standing behind Gu Changge with Jiang Chuchu, slightly trailing behind Yu Mingkong.
As she observed the radiance emerging, she mused in a soft voice. Yin Mei was entirely responsible for constructing the immortal monuments, so she was well aware of the current exchange standards.
‘Will it be difficult to exchange for a Sealing Immortality Decree in the future?” Jiang Chuchu blinked her eyes, unable to help but ask Gu Changge.’
Gu Changge nodded, saying, “Acquiring a Sealing Immortality Decree is not an easy task. Now is the time for these forces to demonstrate their determination.”
“They will hesitate and be concerned about me controlling their fate, making it impossible for them to turn the tables forever. But this was also the only benefit and opportunity I offered them. The forces observing from the sidelines may be cautious, waiting to see how the situation unfolds before making a decision.”
“However, precisely because of this caution, they may miss this prime opportunity.”
“In the future, if they wanted to enter the Immortal Sealing List, the price they had to pay would be more than simple,” Gu Changge explained, smiling meaningfully.
Understanding his explanation, Jiang Chuchu realized it was like staking a claim. Initially, it was a slight gamble for a more significant gain. The cost would be even greater for those who wanted to share the benefits later.
This was, in essence, the simplicity of human nature.
As Gu Changge’s words fell, a radiant fairy light suddenly surged from the square, and even the shadows of ancient palaces and towers condensed and appeared. It was a vast and awe-inspiring scene.
Everyone witnessed an ancient immortal fairy palace emerging, grandiose temples forming expansively, lofty fairy mountains, and thick fairy mist enveloping the surroundings.
Each immortal monument trembled, emitting a radiant light that was so dazzling it illuminated the entire universe.
Could this be a real immortal realm, or just a mirage…
Even background figures couldn’t help but feel a yearning as they gazed at the glowing world, where the rich essence of immortal life permeated the air.
The patriarch of the Ancient Ji family, who knelt at the forefront, experienced unprecedented excitement and exhilaration. He felt the dense aura of immortality enveloping him, penetrating every inch of his body, absorbing through every pore, creating an intense longing.
These factors of immortality permeated from his skin to his internal organs, blood vessels, and bones, finally converging in his spiritual sea.
Everyone saw the patriarch of the Ancient Ji family emitting a radiant glow, with immortal light spouting from his abdominal spiritual sea. A vague and hazy image of an immortal figure appeared, seated and overlooking the heavens and earth.
Still, in its formative stages, this terrifying presence sent shockwaves through the ministers and citizens on the square.
This is the power of immortality; I have gained recognition from the Immortal Sealing List…
The patriarch of the Ancient Ji family couldn’t conceal the joy and excitement on his face; he seemed on the verge of ascending into light.
Many elders of the Ancient Ji family behind him had varied expressions—excitement, envy, regret. The decision to exchange these two terrible immortal artifacts had been carefully considered by the Ancient Ji family. After all, parting with such treasures was a painful sacrifice.
Moreover, who knew what constraints and restrictions awaited them after entering the Immortal Sealing List? Would the recognition and deification by the divine kingdom result in genuine immortality?
After much deliberation, they decided to test the waters by electing the current family head, whose strength had just reached the Supreme Realm, still far from the quasi-emperor level.
Even as a younger member of the Ji family, the decision-making elders could sometimes replace him.
Indeed, this is the power of immortality…
The background figure within the Ji family sighed with admiration and regret, profoundly sensing the palpitations of that intimidating aura.
Compared to the reactions of the Ji family, those from other sects and families were even more dramatic, staring fixedly at the unfolding scene.
Crack!
The sky split open, and the Immortal Sealing List radiated an immeasurable brilliance. Then, a vague radiant glow descended, and one of the tokens was enveloped in a colorful halo before finally landing on the patriarch of the Ji family.
Look…
That’s the name of the patriarch of the Ji family.
Many ministers exclaimed as they witnessed the emergence of ancient and grand inscriptions on the Sealing Immortality List. The silver hooks and iron strokes carried a solemn and divine radiance.
It was the name of the patriarch of the Ji family, now being recorded and engraved on the Sealing Immortality List after sacrificing two immortal artifacts, receiving the acknowledgment of immortality.
This scene reflected across the heavens, captivating the cultivators and beings from many universes who, from afar, observed this awe-inspiring spectacle. The brilliance of the Sealing Immortality overwhelmed the square, making it difficult for many to keep their eyes open.
Is this a success?
Have we witnessed the birth of an immortal?
On the square, the mist of immortality drifted, and shadows of people stretched as far as the eye could see.
All the ministers were shocked and astounded. They watched the patriarch of the Ji family kneeling in front of the imperial palace, his face filled with ecstatic joy, continually bowing to Gu Changge.
I have become an immortal. This is the power of immortality…
Thanks to Your Majesty’s grace, the Ji family is willing to serve the divine kingdom forever…
The patriarch of the Ji family was so excited that his words were incoherent. Initially chosen as a p.a.w.n to test the waters after the family’s deliberations, he had unexpectedly gained unimaginable power from the Sealing Immortality List.
In the blink of an eye, he had the qualifications to overlook the Ji family, causing even the elders to bow their heads.
His spiritual sea was clear at this moment, with a faint glow of immortality. Chains of order lingered and coiled around his limbs, displaying unparalleled strength.
Even the Dao-building experts he had once revered, with profound backgrounds, felt a palpitation of fear under his gaze, like facing a terrifying beast and dared not make eye contact.
Yet, under Gu Changge’s gaze, he still harbored a deep-seated fear, as if a mere thought from Gu Changge could obliterate him countless times over.
If I possess the power of the immortal path, His Majesty’s current strength…
I’m afraid he would have surpa.s.sed the immortal path long ago. This is truly unbelievable.
The patriarch of the Ji family was filled with excitement and exhilaration.
This is the power of immortality; I now stand at the pinnacle of this world.
Undoubtedly, this power was beautiful and tempting. Even though one might know that ahead lies a fire, they still rush towards it like moths, disregarding life and death.
At this moment, the numerous elders of the Ji family had complex emotions, both excited and bitter. The younger generation, who once casually wielded fate, had now become a figure to be revered, making even their bow in awe.
This was indeed the true position of an immortal. Even though being enshrined by the divine country differs from being a genuine immortal in the immortal path, everyone appears insignificant, like ants before them.
Watching the patriarch of the Ji family continuously bowing and worshiping Gu Changge, the ministers and citizens behind him found it challenging to restrain their emotions; they were on the verge of madness.
Even the leaders of many immortal sects lacked immortal-level heritage and were thrilled. Today, it seemed like everything could change.
“A hundred and eight sea tribes from the Immeasurable Mountain offer an Immortal Alchemy Clothes and a piece of Sacred Bright Nine Heavens Mystic Jade, hoping to seek the Immortal Order…”
“The Temple of Refuge offers thirty-six Dao swords, one nine-leaf immortal flower, and one bottle of Immortal Moon Spirit, in order to ask for the seal of immortality…”
“The Golden Divine Clan offers the remnants of the Hongmeng Dominating Heaven Tower, a Purple Crimson Immortal Scripture, and the Haotian Immeasurable Golden Body…”
The square erupted excitedly, and the heavens and various realms were shocked. Leaders of all tribes stood up, and no minister could remain seated. Even the unparalleled immortals from the peerless, immortal dynasty were eager, let alone the others.
The Sealing Immortality List radiated across the heavens and earth, bestowing beams of immortal light. In the divine markings, one after another were imprinted and recorded.
Gu Changge stood calmly at the entrance of the imperial palace, observing these scenes with ancient and tranquil eyes, unaffected.
The Immortal Sealing List emerged. In his view, it was just the prelude to the divine kingdom’s dominion over the heavens and the commencement of the next phase of their plan.
In the boundless emptiness, his actual body sat in meditation. A blurry river of time appeared, with various thoughts rising within it.
What is the meaning of sealing immortality? Nothing more than a group of pseudo-immortals, unrecognized by heaven and earth, confined by a kingdom’s enshrinement, like floating without roots, relying on others for their existence.
Throughout eternity, such actions have never occurred. It’s equivalent to placing the future of this world in someone else’s hands.
Sooner or later, I will overthrow this dark kingdom…
Gu Changge’s profound and indifferent eyes flickered. He caught the origin of this thought, which unexpectedly came from a future segment of the timeline.
His expression changed slightly. As the Immortal Sealing List appeared, radiating across countless realms, even the river of time was illuminated.
However, he hadn’t antic.i.p.ated that it would change the future, leading to the birth of anomalies in the celestial order.
Is this the power of destiny?
Gu Changge whispered, and across the boundless emptiness, he directed a palm toward that segment of the future timeline.
The heavens collapsed, the earth sank, and the universe fell silent. With a resounding boom, the River of Destiny blurred, and following that bold declaration, the youth, full of enthusiasm, stared in horror as a palm descended from the sky.
The rules of heaven and earth retreated, and all things resonated in unison.
He hadn’t even had the chance to fulfill his ambitious words before exploding silently, disappearing without a trace. It was as if he had encountered divine retribution. Subsequently, the world returned to its silent state.
This didn’t involve the power of the river of time but rather the influence of destiny and causality in the boundless emptiness. Gu Changge sensed that a change would occur in that future timeline.
His current strength made traversing the river of time not tricky, but enduring the enormous backlash took work.
The path of destiny was more profound compared to the flow of time. Additionally, transcending the established trajectory wouldn’t impact the world’s operation due to the anomaly, and there would be no backlash.
