Chapter 337: The Great Jing Immortal Dynasty (Part 25)
Dongfang Yunxing savored the words, then his eyes lit up.
"Master has an excellent idea!"
Dongfang Yunxing approved wholeheartedly. He had long since formed a deep grudge with the Transmigrator Alliance.
Su Chen's goal aligned perfectly with his own. Becoming an Immortal King was too distant. But members of the Transmigrator Alliance were everywhere.
Su Chen smiled. He stayed in the Void Cosmic Sea for a while longer. Through Dongfang Yunxing, he learned many secrets.
The situation in the Void Cosmic Sea was dire. The Immortal Kings of the Void Cosmic Sea had collectively disappeared without a trace. This had turned the Void Cosmic Sea into a coveted prize for many forces.
Members of the Transmigrator Alliance had proliferated throughout it. Once they grew strong, they could consume the immortal dao origin of the Void Cosmic Sea. If that origin was completely exhausted, the entire Void Cosmic Sea would head toward destruction.
Although True Immortals were indifferent, they did not want their home to disappear. Nor did they wish to become rogue immortals. Rogue immortals had a difficult time and were often bullied.
The worlds Su Chen had seen destroyed were not the result of True Immortals acting on a whim. They suspected the presence of transmigrators in those worlds.
Transmigrators carried the "transmigration" characteristic, a creation of the supreme experts in the Transmigrator Alliance that could shield them from True Immortal perception. Searching for them was extremely troublesome. Some True Immortals, unwilling to bother, simply chose to reboot the entire world.
Dongfang Yunxing did not want to casually reboot worlds.
As a result, he had gradually been "isolated" by the True Immortals of the Void Cosmic Sea.
Dongfang Yunxing felt quite helpless.
"In that case, why don't you return to the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain with me?"
Su Chen invited Dongfang Yunxing to return with him to the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain. With two True Immortals guarding the Great Jing Heavenly Dynasty, they would hold significant influence there.
Dongfang Yunxing agreed without hesitation. "This disciple had the same intention."
He held out his palm. The world around him condensed into a black sphere in his hand, which he then stored away.
The two set off on the journey back to the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain.
...
Inside the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain.
Thirteen million years had passed since Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's reincarnation as Li Zhiyan was killed by Su Chen and sent back into reincarnation.
In an ancient nest within the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain.
"Damn Wisdom Lord!"
An ugly monster with nine heads of different colors cursed angrily. Indeed, he was the reincarnated Burial Truth Immortal Monarch. He had lost count of how many times he had reincarnated.
He had finally shaken off the karma entangling him and had not reincarnated within the human race's territory this time, but into the Nine-Headed Divine Race. He had only recently awakened his memories.
He did not immediately attempt to reclaim his former position. If he rashly tried to recover his old status, it would certainly alert the one in the Great Jing immortal Dynasty.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch had no desire to die again. If he continued being killed repeatedly, his connection to his immortal dao imprint would grow weaker and weaker. Eventually, he might lose himself in reincarnation and never return.
"Nine-Headed Divine Race..."
In Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's mind appeared the ancestor of the Nine-Headed Divine Race, the Nine-Headed Divine Lord.
Under normal circumstances, an ant-like figure such as this would not have caught his attention at all.
But times had changed. To return, he needed the help of the Nine-Headed Divine Lord.
"What did you say? You claim to be Burial Truth Immortal Monarch?"
The two tall Nine-Headed Divine Race envoys burst into laughter as if they had heard a hilarious joke.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's face darkened.
"You are Burial Truth Immortal Monarch? Then I am the Human Emperor!"
The two tall envoys mocked him mercilessly. Clearly, they did not believe that this weak member of their race could possibly be the lofty True Immortal.
Being looked down upon by two ants among ants filled Burial Truth Immortal Monarch with rage, but he suppressed his anger.
"I need the Nine-Headed Divine Lord to come see this Immortal Monarch."
As soon as the words left his mouth, a tail swept him away.
Watching Burial Truth Immortal Monarch fly out of the core region of the Nine-Headed Divine Race like a shooting star, the two tall envoys sneered with disdain. "What trash dares to impersonate Lord Immortal..."
In a mysterious space above the Nine-Headed Divine Race, a shadowy figure watched Burial Truth Immortal Monarch being swept away and smiled.
Finding an opportunity to toy with Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was one of the few entertaining things worth savoring across the endless ages.
"But I cannot play him to death too easily, or he will definitely come looking for me to settle the score when he returns."
The shadowy figure muttered to himself. He thought of the generous terms offered by the outer-domain forces.
"Breaking the barrier to let members of the Transmigrator Alliance enter the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain is not something I can accomplish alone. I need to drag a few others down with me."
"Burial Truth is a good candidate."
The mysterious figure was a True Immortal of the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain. He was also the old friend Burial Truth Immortal Monarch intended to seek help from.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch, however, knew nothing of this. His former friend had long known his identity and was secretly watching his misfortune.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch rose to his feet, disheveled and humiliated.
How long had it been since he had been in such a sorry state?
"Nine-Headed Divine Race..."
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's eyes turned icy cold.
Once he regained his former power, he would make the entire Nine-Headed Divine Race his eternal playthings.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch began to cultivate. After a million years of effort, he finally earned the right to stand before the Nine-Headed Divine Lord, whom he had once disdained.
"You claim to be Lord Burial Truth Immortal Monarch?"
The Nine-Headed Divine Lord was skeptical. How could a True Immortal like Burial Truth Immortal Monarch reincarnate as one of his descendants?
In the end, he chose to believe him. He staked the entire clan.
Through the Nine-Headed Divine Lord, Burial Truth Immortal Monarch endured countless hardships and finally contacted his former friend, Supporting Wind Immortal Monarch.
"You want... to let the Transmigrator Alliance enter the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain?"
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch pondered.
This was no small matter.
Yet in the end, he agreed.
Supporting Wind Immortal Monarch was willing to help him regain his former power.
"You mean... the true body of the Wisdom Lord is currently not in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain?"
Upon learning that Su Chen was not in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain, Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's expression turned ugly. He had been so cautious, endured so much suffering, and even sold out the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain. For what?
In his fury, winds stirred and clouds surged.
Chapter 338: The Great Jing Immortal Dynasty (Part 26)
"Is that... Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's aura?"
As Su Chen approached the barrier of the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain, he suddenly sensed a tremor in the immortal dao origin and a familiar yet terrifying aura.
Su Chen's expression turned strange.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch truly had terrible luck. He had returned neither too early nor too late, but precisely when Su Chen was returning to the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain.
Dongfang Yunxing also sensed that something was wrong. That aura felt somewhat familiar to him.
"That is... the True Immortal who once spied on me!"
Dongfang Yunxing remembered that this True Immortal seemed to have a grudge against his master.
In that case, there was no problem.
Dongfang Yunxing immediately formed the Sword of Myriad Laws and the Blade of Tribulation and Fate, then slashed toward Burial Truth Immortal Monarch.
Swift and decisive.
...
Inside the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain.
"Hahahahaha! This Immortal Monarch has finally returned!"
Many True Immortals in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain were alarmed.
"That aura..."
"It is indeed Burial Truth who has returned."
"With Burial Truth's personality, he will not let the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty off once he returns. Since the Human Emperor's true body is not in the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty right now, it will likely be in danger."
"Another good show is about to begin."
One True Immortal after another revealed their figures. Whether it was Su Chen taking action against Burial Truth Immortal Monarch or Burial Truth Immortal Monarch attacking the Great Jing Heavenly Dynasty, they all chose to watch from the sidelines.
The next instant.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch suddenly sensed a terrifying killing intent approaching at incredible speed.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch felt an ominous premonition.
That aura seemed somewhat familiar.
"It is an overlord!"
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch realized it, but it was already too late.
Dongfang Yunxing's sword pierced through him.
"It is actually just a false body..."
Dongfang Yunxing grew interested. He then slashed open space with his blade.
"This blade has nowhere to hide."
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch hid within a fabricated illusory world. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a blade light slashed down toward the top of his head.
There was nowhere to hide, nowhere to escape.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's expression changed drastically as his body dimmed.
"What kind of technique is this?"
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was terrified. This blade had severed his fortune. If he fell into reincarnation again, he would likely suffer continuous misfortune for a long time.
It would have been better to be killed outright by that sword. At least the suffering would have been shorter.
"Fellow daoist, what grudge do we have?"
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch shouted unwillingly. He had endured countless hardships to return. He had just returned, yet before he could take revenge on the Wisdom Lord or destroy the Great Jing Heavenly Dynasty and the human race, he was about to die in such a humiliating way again.
The next moment, he saw a familiar face through layers of space. Beside that familiar face stood a young man holding a sword and a blade.
"It is you!"
As Burial Truth Immortal Monarch spoke, his body was pierced by a giant sword. The great dao laws directly annihilated his form.
The newly revived Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was once again sent into reincarnation.
The shocking scene immediately stopped Supporting Wind Immortal Monarch from acting on his impulse. He felt a surge of relief in his heart.
Three moves. In just three moves, Burial Truth Immortal Monarch had been slain. Such strength undoubtedly belonged to an overlord!
If he had rushed out, he would likely have met the same fate.
"Burial Truth, my worthy brother, it is not that I did not want to help you. The enemy was simply too powerful."
Supporting Wind Immortal Monarch thought to himself. He had calculated everything, yet he had never expected the True Immortal of the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty to return at this moment, accompanied by such a terrifying helper.
Burial Truth Immortal Monarch's death meant his plan would be delayed. This left him somewhat regretful.
The True Immortals of the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain watched Burial Truth Immortal Monarch being effortlessly slain. His terrifying strength sent chills down their spines.
An overlord! This was undoubtedly an overlord! He had at least walked three paths. When they clearly saw the figure, they became even more wary. This was the terrifying existence who had crossed domains to severely wound the Burial Truth Immortal Monarch!
They had thought that the one who had crossed domains to injure Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was a powerful expert who had gone extremely far among True Immortals. They had never imagined that the powerful existence who had crossed domains to heavily wound Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was actually an overlord!
Although there were many True Immortals in the Heavenly Gang Immortal Domain, the number who could be called overlords could be counted on one hand.
"To be able to teach an overlord... what kind of existence must he be?"
The immortals realized they had greatly underestimated the one from the Great Jing Immortal Dynasty. He was at least an overlord-level expert who had reincarnated and re-cultivated! They felt fortunate that they had never offended Su Chen.
...
Su Chen was not surprised that Dongfang Yunxing had effortlessly sent Burial Truth Immortal Monarch back into reincarnation. His disciple's abilities were truly overpowered. No matter how strong Burial Truth Immortal Monarch was, he had only walked a single immortal path.
After all, even a powerhouse from the Transmigrator Alliance who had walked three immortal paths had died at Dongfang Yunxing's hands.
Su Chen returned to the Great Jing Heavenly Dynasty. With both him and Dongfang Yunxing present as True Immortals, the dynasty was now firmly guarded.
Upon his return, Nan Hongsang's cultivation had already reached an extreme level among Emperors.
"Husband, do you think I can become an immortal like you?"
Nan Hongsang looked at Su Chen with a serious expression.
Countless millions of years had passed in this life.
"Perhaps you will."
Su Chen did not give her a definite answer. He did not know whether he could create a True Immortal.
Nan Hongsang smiled brightly.
In the days that followed.
Su Chen and Dongfang Yunxing worked together to lay plans and search for ways to grow stronger.
At the True Immortal realm, the ways to become stronger were extremely limited.
...
True Yang Continent. Wang Family.
"What... is happening to me?"
Wang Jun was the young master of the Wang Family and its number one genius. He felt as if he had just awakened from a very long dream.
In the dream, he had offended a cowherd. His fiancée had been taken away by that cowherd. In his fury, he had pursued and tried to kill the man. Yet the cowherd he had looked down upon not only survived but grew stronger with every battle. Like an undying cockroach, even though he was supposedly a waste who could not cultivate, he would break through at critical moments. In the end, without any proper cultivation, he had surpassed Wang Jun in power.
He had even been defeated in front of everyone, had his cultivation crippled, and was kicked to death like a stray dog on the roadside.
"What a joke."
Wang Jun felt the dream was too unrealistic. It must have been a nightmare.
He was the young master of the Wang Family. Although the Wang Family was not one of the legendary saint clans, it was still a top-tier major clan. How could he be defeated by a mere cowherd and have his cultivation stripped away?
Impossible. It was absolutely impossible!
Wang Jun shook his head.
[Ding... Detected that the host has offended the Child of Destiny. The Myriad Heavens Great Villain System is at your service.]
Wang Jun shook his head again. He seemed to have heard a voice echoing in his mind just now.
It must have been an illusion.
[Congratulations, host, for activating the Myriad Heavens Great Villain System. You may claim one Great Villain Gift Pack. Would you like to claim it?]
Wang Jun's eyes lit up.
What had he just heard? There was a gift?
Wang Jun was skeptical but finally spoke.
"Claim the gift."
[Congratulations, host, for obtaining Saint Artifact Myriad Treasures Pagoda 1, Saint-Level Technique Human King Art 1, Saint-Level Pill Eternal Longevity Pill 1.]
Wang Jun stared at the points of light appearing before him.
"Slap."
A crisp sound rang out in the room.
Wang Jun clutched his burning cheek. He could confirm this was not an illusion.
He, Wang Jun, seemed to have obtained an extraordinary opportunity.
These were the legendary saint-level items.
"This is not a dream..."
Wang Jun suddenly thought of the cowherd who had caused his miserable fate in the dream.
"Could all of that... also have been real?"
