Chapter 1796
1796 Destroying Heavenly Dao Sect, Turning Your Restricted Area Into Hell, The Yin and Yang Cauldron
At the same time, a surging wave of spiritual qi also swept out from within the pillar of light. Wherever it went, everything revived!
The aura was so dense that it could almost condense into liquid form and flow throughout the void.
In the Capital, War Admiral Chaos, Nangong Huang, Luo Shui, and the others were extremely shocked when they saw that phenomenon.
“W-What is happening?”
!!
“Such pure and potent spiritual qi! Did something happen?”
“It’s not only the spiritual qi”
War Admiral Chaos uttered as he sensed something. He noticed that the Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao had grown much stronger, making it easier for everyone to gain insights into and understand the Dao.
Compared to the change in spiritual qi, everyone was more shocked to find out about the change in the Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao.
“What are you guys waiting for? Quick! Begin your cultivation now!”
Nangong Huang’s eyes lit up. He immediately sat down with his legs crossed and started to absorb the surrounding spiritual qi to comprehend his Source.
The others also quickly started their cultivation.
With the Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao prospering like never before, Daoist Rhymes reverberated in the skies. Many cultivators instantly gained insights during their cultivation and broke through to a higher cultivation realm.
That was the greatest change the Firmament Star had had in decades.
Due to that prosperous event, the Capital’s damaged vitality gradually recovered, and its potential was much greater than before.
No Not only the Capital but the whole Firmament Star also benefited tremendously from that event.
Everyone looked at the pillar of light with utmost reverence and admiration.
All of them knew that no one other than Chu Kuangren could bring about such a great change.
Sitting with his legs crossed inside the Imperial Palace, Chu Kuangren was focusing on refining the Heavenly Dao energy inside his body.
The Little Golden Man, a manifestation of the Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao, was also sitting beside him. It was imitating Chu Kuangren, sitting crossed-legged, and refining Heavenly Dao energy.
It was because the Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao had grown stronger that the planet itself was experiencing such beneficial changes.
“Alright, I’m more or less done with refining this.”
Chu Kuangren opened his eyes.
The Little Golden Man also stood up and bowed to Chu Kuangren, seemingly expressing his gratitude, before it disappeared.
“The Firmament Star’s Heavenly Dao is now dozens of times stronger than before. This means that becoming Immortals will become easier for many cultivators in the Firmament Star Perhaps I can even start to think about relocating the Firmament Empire into the Immortal World,” Chu Kuangren murmured while rubbing his chin.
The Immortal World was an important strategic location of the Pan Gu Universe. After all, almost every prestigious orthodoxy or force had settled inside there.
Moving his empire into the Immortal World would not be too hard for Chu Kuangren. After all, once he became the Immortal World Ruler, all he needed to do was to give that order, and it would be done.
“Next up would be the Battle of Heavenly Champions. It’s time for this great battle to come to an end,” Chu Kuangren murmured.
He stared into the depths of Pan Gu Universe, looking at the ancient Immortal World, and grinned.
After he completed his closed-door meditation, he told Gu Linglong about his plans to return to the Immortal World.
“Now, my future queen of the Immortal World, would you like to accompany me and witness the greatest event in the history of this universe?”
Gu Linglong chuckled. “Of course. I’d be glad to, my King.”
Having been Queen for so long, Gu Linglong felt it was time to let go of her burdens and spend more time with her lover.
If he wanted to travel and see the world, she would be by his side and accompany him everywhere.
If he wanted to relax and indulge in music and art, she would dance for him and prepare the tools for drawing.
If he wanted to climb to the pinnacle of supreme power, she would accompany him and rule by his side!
“My Queen, are you going to leave with the King?”
Elder Ruyan, who was next to her, was stunned. “If you’re gone, who’s going to manage this empire?!”
Chu Kuangren and Gu Linglong exchanged gazes and then looked at Elder Ruyan together. They clearly had an answer already.
Elder Ruyan looked around her for a while before coming to a realization. She pointed to herself and said in horror, “You can’t possibly be planning to hand over this great empire to me?”
“I’ll be counting on you, Elder Ruyan,” Chu Kuangren said seriously.
Elder Ruyan had known Chu Kuangren for a very long time. Back when he was still a Sect Leader, Elder Ruyan was by his side, assisting in handling various matters. When he became the Human King, she was elected as humanity’s chief governor to aid him. After he left and Gu Linglong took over as Queen, she was the one who had been helping her the entire time.
No one other than Elder Ruyan was more qualified for that task.
“My King, you seem to be getting better at passing the buck, huh?”
Elder Ruyan felt helpless.
Why could she not have an easier life?
For all the years, from the Black Heaven Sect to the current Firmament Empire, had she not contributed enough?
Now that Chu Kuangren and his wife were about to leave, she could not believe that they had decided to toss such a tremendous responsibility over to her. She felt incredibly helpless just at the mere thought of it.
‘Quick, everyone. Quickly come and look!’
‘The heartless Human King and his pretty wife are going to work the humanity’s elder to the bone!’
“Elder Ruyan, I believe you can pull this off without trouble.”
Chu Kuangren walked to her and patted her shoulder.
At the same time, a surge of Green Lotus’s Creation energy was injected into her body. With that energy in her body, some of Elder Ruyan’s internal injuries healed rapidly.
Besides that, her cultivation progress would become smoother in the future.
That surge of energy was a manifestation of the Chaos Green Lotus’s purest form of Creation energy and could not be used however pleased.
However, Chu Kuangren felt that Elder Ruyan was qualified to receive that power.
Upon noticing the Green Lotus’s Creation energy inside her body, Elder Ruyan did not realize how priceless it was. Instead, she merely let out a bitter smile. “Do I even have a choice?”
“Hehe.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
Then, he gathered War General Chaos, Nangong Huang, and the others and briefly told them about bringing Gu Linglong with him to the Immortal World.
Although everyone was surprised that Chu Kuangren was leaving so soon, they understood that the matter at the Immortal World was more important.
“As for the empire, Linglong and I have decided to let Elder Ruyan handle everything in our absence,” Chu Kuangren said.
No one was surprised to hear that as they, too, felt that it made sense.
Some of them even looked at Elder Ruyan and teased.
“Elder Ruyan has become an unparalleled pillar of support for humanity.”
“That’s right. Elder Ruyan has made significant contributions to the development of the empire since the very beginning. Our achievements could only pale in comparison to hers.”
Elder Ruyan rolled her eyes. “Why don’t you guys do it instead?”
“No, no, no. There’s no way we can do that. We’re all brutes who only know how to fight and kill. It’s better that we leave the management of the empire to you.”
Everyone quickly waved their hands.
After some small talk, Chu Kuangren and Gu Linglong left.
While on the way to the Immortal World, Gu Linglong asked curiously, “By the way, my husband, you mentioned that an individual known as Heavenly Dao King is backing the Heavenly Dao Sect. Won’t he come to our empire looking for trouble?”
“Don’t worry. Senior Ling Hua is helping me keep watch.” Chu Kuangren chuckled.
That was the reason he felt rest assured to leave the empire.
Soon after, Chu Kuangren and Gu Linglong arrived at one of the Immortal World’s Four Heavenly Gates, the Southern Heavenly Gate.
Looking at the nine hundred ninety-nine white jade pillars with dragons and phoenixes carved into them, Chu Kuangren could not help but recall the first time he came here. There was a slight grin on his face.
“So, this is the Immortal World? It’s quite spectacular,” Gu Linglong exclaimed in amazement.
“It’ll be even more spectacular in a bit. Come, Linglong, hold my hand.”
“What’s the matter?”
Gu Linglong was a little confused. However, she still extended her hand.
“I just want to give you an early taste of what it feels like to become the Immortal World’s Queen.”
He led Gu Linglong and entered the Southern Heavenly Gate. Within an instant, boundless light shone everywhere, lighting up the dark and silent universe.
Then, the nine hundred ninety-nine white jade dragon and phoenix pillars shook. Countless dragons and phoenixes manifested, their roars and cries reverberating throughout the area, and auspicious conjurations appeared. It was as if they were welcoming the Immortal World Ruler himself!
