Eternal Emperor's Path to Ascension
Chapter 354: Supremely Valiant Heaven Reaching General, Lower Realm’s Changing Karma and Fate
At the same time, beyond the endless dimensional barriers of the Lower Realm, in a world where Immortals and Gods roamed the heavens.
Second Great Immortal World.
Moon Water Divine Dynasty.
Within the deepest region of this Divine Dynasty’s Jade Capital that has existed for hundreds of millions of years.
A golden immortal palace Grotto-Heaven floated in the endless celestial void, the faint buzz of ancient formations and its remnant divine aura enough to annihilate ordinary Immortal Gods below the Profound Immortal Realm instantly in body and soul upon contact within billions of miles.
Dimensions layered upon dimensions around it infinitely, while countless concepts of heaven and earth manifested and collapsed every instant.
The Dao rhyme and Dharma charm leaking from it were enough to allow a mortal to achieve enlightenment on the spot and breakthrough several major realms instantly.
Divine rivers of Immortal Qi extended across the void like the milky way, while many ancient stars revolved around the palace like satellites revolving around a planet.
These were not the stars of ordinary universes in the Myriad Worlds or the universe containing stars of the Lower Realm, but genuine primordial stars of the Upper Realm, the weight of each one enough to crush dimensions and cause the entire Lower Realm to tremble.
This was the Grotto-Heaven of one of the most exalted beings in the Moon Water Divine Dynasty, second only to the Divine Emperor himself, an ancient being who led the Divine Dynasty to conquer the Second Great Immortal World in all directions hundreds of millions of years ago, the Supremely Valiant Heaven Reaching General.
At this moment, within the deepest hall of the divine palace, a figure quietly knelt beneath an enormous jade throne.
The surrounding atmosphere was suffocatingly silent, even the surrounding space seemingly frozen.
The kneeling figure wore luxurious golden robes embroidered with countless divine patterns. Every breath he took could cause entire worlds to collapse.
It was none other than the Venerated True God of Divine Fortune.
Profound Immortals were supreme existences capable of suppressing entire regions in the Second Great Immortal World with a single thought.
Yet at this moment, he remained kneeling respectfully with his head lowered.
Because sitting upon the jade throne above him was a being far more terrifying than a mere Profound Immortal.
The figure upon the throne was shrouded in mysterious golden mist, his appearance indiscernible, with only a pair of hazy crimson eyes quietly overlooking heaven and earth.
The unconscious release of that aura caused the surrounding dimensions to continuously collapse and regenerate.
The so-called concepts of heaven and earth were a level higher than the heavenly rules, just like how heavenly rules existed on a higher level than worldly laws.
Beings started comprehending the concepts of heaven and earth after ascending to immortality from the Vagrant Immortal Realm.
Yet, even the concepts of heaven and earth around that being instinctively submitted to his presence, such level of power was unimaginable for ordinary Immortals and Gods in the Upper Realm.
This was a Golden Immortal.
One of the truly supreme beings of the Upper Realm.
An existence standing at the absolute peak of the Immortal path in the Upper Realm, capable of transforming his words into laws.
Throughout the Nine Great Immortal Worlds, Golden Immortals were nearly invincible existences.
Every movement of such beings could shake the entire Second Great Immortal World.
And the one before the Venerated True God of Divine Fortune was the founding ancestor of the Ancestral Heavenly Family.
The Supremely Valiant Heaven Reaching General, one of the two strongest beings beneath the Moon Water Divine Dynasty, the other being the Moon Water Divine Emperor himself.
At this moment, the Venerated True God of Divine Fortune slowly lowered his head further before respectfully speaking,
"Ancestor, a great variable has emerged from the Lower Realm this time. Although that was only our bloodline in the Lower Realm, it was still the origin of our Ancestral Heavenly Family. Are we really not going to take action right now? The speed of that variable’s growth is inconceivable; in just eight hundred years, he has already reached the pinnacle of the Mortal World. If he continues to grow, he might become a huge threat in the future."
His voice echoed throughout the endless divine hall.
However, the figure upon the jade throne remained silent for a very long time.
The hazy eyes quietly overlooked the ancient Jade Capital filled with Immortal Qi and Dao rhymes reaching the heavens. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮
Finally, an ancient voice slowly echoed throughout the grand palace.
"It is not time yet."
The moment those words fell, the surrounding dimensions trembled violently.
He calmly continues, a faint sense of reverence appearing in his voice, "That Sovereign has not given orders for the time being."
At the mention of the word ’Sovereign’, even the Venerated True God’s body faintly stiffened.
A trace of immeasurable fear and respect originating from the depths of his soul unconsciously flashed through his eyes.
The Golden Immortal upon the throne slowly closed his eyes.
"But... it will be very soon."
The divine hall gradually fell silent once more.
...
At the same time, the Lower Realm, Second Great Mortal World.
Central Continent, Heavenly Region.
At this moment, deep within a makeshift cave abode, a young man quietly sat cross-legged amidst endless Spirit Qi tides.
It was none other than Zhu Dong.
After arriving in the Heavenly Region previously by following behind Tian Yongheng, he had been staying here temporarily, wanting to breakthrough a few levels or even a major realm before leaving for the Eternal Peak once again, truly meeting that divine being.
After that battle, he no longer considered Tian Yongheng just a peerless genius, but definitely an existence at least of Sovereign status undergoing reincarnation and re-cultivation just like himself.
Even he could not kill Vagrant Immortals so easily with a mortal body despite using a Dharma Treasure.
However, at this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes from his cultivation, his brows furrowed.
A faint trace of irritation appeared within his heart.
Just now, he could clearly feel it.
The fate of the Lower Realm had begun to shift somehow.
Yes, not merely the Second Great Mortal World, but the entire Lower Realm.
The karmic flow of heaven and earth had become chaotic, and the originally somewhat stable fate lines were now gradually distorting.
As a former Immortal Sovereign, Zhu Dong’s sensitivity toward karma and fate far surpassed ordinary beings.
Even though he had already undergone reincarnation and re-cultivation, currently only possessing the cultivation of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, his essence and soul remained that of an ancient Immortal Sovereign.
Thus, the moment the fate of the Lower Realm shifted, he immediately sensed it.
Zhu Dong slightly narrowed his eyes.
A bad premonition quietly surged within his heart.
At the same time, an extremely faint killing intent flashed through his gaze.
"Those bastards..."
He softly muttered to himself before falling silent
After remaining silent for a long time, Zhu Dong slowly raised his gaze toward the heavens above the Mortal World.
His gaze crossed the dimensional barrier, piercing through the Outer Void, toward the Upper Realm.
He naturally understood what this change likely represented.
A great change was taking place in the Upper Realm, and the center of the storm was the Lower Realm.
Zhu Dong slowly closed his eyes once more.
Could it be...
But hasn’t there only been around thirty million years since the beginning of the current cycle’s Mythical Era?
He took in a deep breath, the faint irritation within his heart not disappearing, instead becoming increasingly intense.
Finally, he softly muttered,
"What exactly are they planning this time?"
