Chapter 1176: Trying to ban the authority of heaven, the only real world

The grand ceremony of attaining immortality concluded with officially recognizing eight celestial beings in the immortal realm.

Despite the later Dao families offering numerous treasures, they couldnt stir the Immortal Sealing List.

The ent.i.ties enshrined on the list were elated, blessed by the sacred incense of the Divine Kingdom, granting them the power to tread the immortal pathan extraordinary opportunity for a seamless transition from mortals to immortals.

Their immortal figures, akin to blurred deities, reflected on the Immortal Sealing List, surrounded by an immortal glow, exuding a sacred and towering presence that easily surpa.s.sed all races.

Yet, they all humbly kneel before Gu Changge, Yue Mingkong, and others, fully aware of who bestowed their newfound status.

Entrusting a thread of their original true soul to the Immortal Sealing List elevated Gu Changge to a level comparable to the ancient lord of heaven and earth, governing over the immortals.

Despite possessing the power of immortality, Gu Changge regarded them no differently than ants. As the event concluded, many forces that missed this opportunity felt deep heartache and regret, realizing that reclaiming a spot on the Immortal List after the grand ceremony would come at a steep price.

Even for the immortal sects, disaster loomed, and acquiring an immortality seal was far from guaranteed. During the later stages of the ceremony, several immortal artifacts were offered to the altar, but they garnered no response.

The monument remained silent, and the Immortal List did not radiate with immortal brilliance.

This prompted the forces that demonstrated loyalty early on to secretly rejoice, grateful they were the first to make sacrifices.

Gu Changge, however, provided them with another chance, announcing that the Immortal List would manifest again every hundred years for subsequent imperial conferrings.

Over the next century, all races and sects could prepare for the next Immortal Conferment Ceremony. Reaching this point was a monumental achievement compared to the arduous path of cultivating immortality and enduring countless tribulations.

Being listed, officially conferred, and wielding the power of immortality with the promise of endless life proved an unimaginable temptation for all races, sects, and beings across the heavens. No one could resist its allure.

In the aftermath, numerous background figures appeared, seeking an audience with Gu Changge outside the imperial palace, eager to obtain an immortality seal at any cost.

Despite resorting to various arcane arts to extend their lifespans, their desire for immortality was insatiable.

In this era, with Gu Changge reigning over the Divine Kingdom, even those ancient malevolent immortals emerging from the river of time met their end with a wave of her hand.

Who dares to incite darkness and turmoil when faced with these ancient ent.i.ties whose life forces had depleted?

However, in the face of the numerous background figures desires, Gu Changge paid no heed, stating that the next Immortal Conferment Ceremony would occur a hundred years later.

To receive the imperial conferment, they must, within this century, find suitable items capable of activating the Heavenly Monument, earning recognition from the Immortal List.

The heavens and earth were vast, with many unexplored areas harboring ancient treasures or immortal wonders buried within the chaos.

For these background figures to obtain the Immortality Seal, they had to find a way to venture into these places, risking their lives to seek rare artifacts. Ordinary cultivation techniques and divine abilities were no longer sufficient for the approval of the Heavenly Monument.

After the ceremonys conclusion, this event undoubtedly reverberated throughout the heavens and earth. Although the square had gathered influential leaders and figures from various races and forces, the vastness of the heavens meant that many groups needed to witness the grand ceremony firsthand.

However, news about the event spread far and wide, and some scenes were recorded on image stones and ma.n.u.scripts for future generations to witness.

During this period, temples dedicated to Gu Changge spontaneously appeared across the heavens, with constant incense offerings and numerous cultivators paying homage daily.

The sounds of prayers and rituals echoed throughout the heavens, and the aftermath of the Kun Ji Catastrophe was fading as prosperity and tranquility returned. All races thrived and expanded, regaining their former glory.

After the Immortal Conferment Ceremony, ancient heavenly monuments emerged in every ancient holy city. These monuments, simple yet ancient, were crafted from unimaginable materials.

Starting from the Realm of physical body, the monuments listed the strongest prodigies of each realm throughout history. If a cultivator of the same realm could have their name inscribed on the monument, they would gain recognition from the Heavenly Monument and receive unparalleled rewards.

Even ordinary cultivators approaching the monuments felt an overwhelming and terrifying pressure capable of bending their legs and bursting their bodies.

Faced with the celestial monument, it was like confronting an ancient primordial G.o.d. Even cultivators in the Supreme Realm felt trepidation, observing from a distance without daring to approach.

The appearance of the heavenly monument immediately caused a terrifying sensation throughout the heavens and earth. This feat rivaled the Immortal Sealing List in shock and awe.

After all, these were the strongest prodigies listed throughout history, spanning an unknown duration. Even those who had achieved immortality in the past dared not speak of the true extent of this timeline, concealing the secrets of these ancient beings.

However, after a.s.suming control of the Divine Kingdom, Gu Changge established the Immortal Sealing List, breaking the cultivation norms, and listed the strongest prodigies throughout history, intending to erect the heavenly Monument.

Many immortal forces and sects realized the enormity of Gu Changges actions; he seemed genuinely inclined to abolish the authority of the divine order. If successful, the heavens would become his exclusive domain.

For the younger generation, this was an unimaginable opportunity. It clearly understood the vast gap between them and the countless prodigies listed throughout history.

Moreover, inscribed on the Heavenly Monument promised unparalleled opportunities, propelling their cultivation to new heights.

However, considering the current situation, the heavenly Monument had only just taken shape, far from fully revealing its profound nature, let alone listing all the prodigies throughout history.

Gu Changges actions were akin to presenting a forewarning to the world, indicating that the heavenly Monument would soon emerge in the heavens and earth, bringing about significant changes similar to the Immortal List.

Apart from this, Gu Changge had plans regarding the void realm. He personally manifested a thread of his Dao Body, commanding a vast army to sweep away the remnants of shattered worlds scattered throughout the universe since the forbidden era.

Subsequently, he took the essence of these shattered worlds, intending to forge the void domain and guide the cycles of reincarnation and souls.

The void domain corresponded to the mythological realms of the underworld and the Nine h.e.l.ls. If the void domain came into existence, it would undoubtedly impact the operation of the rules of the heavens and earth. Throughout the ages, the functioning of the universe had been self-contained, and the existence of the cycle of life and death was still a matter of debate.

However, Gu Changges actions amounted to seizing the authority of the heavenly order, incorporating his thoughts into the trajectory of the universe operation.

Once the void domain completely eradicated the legendary Nine h.e.l.ls, the cycle of life and death would essentially be under Gu Changges control.

Even for those whose life forces had dried up and vitality exhausted, Gu Changge had a solution to return them to the cycle of reincarnation, granting them another chance at life or even immortal life.

However, such an undertaking might come at an unimaginable cost. Therefore, the birth of the void domain was exceedingly challenging, perhaps even more than recreating an immortal realm and reshaping chaos, as perceived by Gu Changge.

Merely combining and sacrificing the essence of the world encountered unprecedented challenges.

If the void domain is established, the cycle of reincarnation, the nine depths of the underworld, must also be incorporated

This is a colossal project, impossible to complete in a short period.

Gu Changges true self sat cross-legged at the edge of the boundless void, with radiant divine light s.h.i.+ning before him. Fist-sized and colorful fragments of ancient world origins floated around him.

As he refined these origins, attempting to forge the void domain, the process yielded neither the antic.i.p.ated merits nor signs of birth. Instead, several chaotic thunderbolts descended toward him from the depths of the unknown.

The cycle of reincarnation was originally within the operation of divine authority, and Gu Changges current actions aimed to abolish this divine will altogether. The backlash he experienced was unsurprising, but an unsettling premonition arose.

This undertaking is too challenging. With my current strength, if I forcefully continue, my body might rupture

Gu Changge noticed a crack on his forehead, appearing at some point. Accompanying this was a corresponding crack in the Dao Body that reflected in the heavens and earth.

Incense wafted through the sky as many cultivators wors.h.i.+ped the G.o.d statue inside the divine temple. Suddenly, a faint crack appeared on the figure, startling everyone.

However, the damage vanished instantly, making many believe it was a momentary illusion.

In the depths of the void, Gu Changge retrieved the world origins being sacrificed. The crack on his forehead slowly healed, disappearing in an instant. Yet, he fell into contemplation.

The inexplicable backlash had occurred unnoticed, without any warning. If this continued, even his Dao Body might shatter.

Is it that the time is not yet ripe, or is this act defying the heavens, something my current cultivation cannot withstand?

Gu Changge pondered. Although his spiritual realm was formidable, far exceeding his current strength, his physical body had not undergone a true Immortal Tribulation, inviting unforeseen changes.

With these considerations, Gu Changge decided to set aside this matter temporarily. Having acc.u.mulated enough during this period, it was time to usher in the arrival of a true Immortal Domain and step into an immaculate immortal realm.

Just as Gu Changge prepared to usher in the Immortal Domain, bordering on the upper realms

Boom!

In the vast and boundless world-sea, an earth-shattering tidal wave suddenly emerged. With a thunderous crash, the ancient layers of the world before him collapsed and shattered into heavenly particles.

Vague s.h.i.+ps sailed through the endless world sea, but the terrible storms in this region were terrifying, with even the chaotic true thunderbolts carrying destructive power.

The world appeared boundless, shrouded in mist, with glimpses of fragmented ancient worlds and vast universes drifting about.

Where the sky met the earth, a hazy mirror surface appeared. Beyond the mirror, the reflected worlds floated, overlapping as if coexisting.

The worlds within and outside the mirror gradually made contact, undergoing some inexplicable and eerie changes. In the places where they touched, there were collapses and integrationsmoments of disintegration and moments of new creation, mysterious and magical.

Although this seemed slow, it proceeded methodically, colliding and then dissolving.

The birth of the One True Realm is imminent, very imminent

On those vague s.h.i.+ps, ancient G.o.d-like murmurs resounded, and the cold, indifferent gaze of primordial G.o.ds was observed.
