A swarm of heavy artillery bombarded the cultivators.

Chapter 2163 Old Friends of the Immortal Sect Advance to Supreme Level, True Fairy's Affection Gradually Dwindles
"In addition to institutional reforms, there are also reforms in etiquette."

"Ritual is the core of humanity."

The Holy Maiden of Fusang continued, "From now on, the title of Your Majesty will be completely abolished. You may call him Sword Master in the past, and Sword Lord in formal occasions. We will weaken the sense of hierarchy, establish the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court as the central government, and set up 360 Sword Bearers in the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court. They will be judged solely on their military achievements and contributions to the development of immortality, and will be used to assist in governance."

"By the way, Your Majesty,"

"As for how to address someone, a concubine is an exception, right?"

The Holy Maiden of Fusang suddenly remembered something and asked.

"Soft persimmon,"

"You are, of course, an exception."

Jiang Ding said quietly.

This is a bond from many years ago, a promise from many years ago, and the major original shareholders will naturally not forget it.

"Your Majesty is wise!"

"May His Majesty attain immortality in the future."

The Holy Maiden of Fusang smiled radiantly and continued to the next question: "Our governing center, according to tradition, should be the Supreme Great Sun Emperor Heaven. Your suggestion is to change it to the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court, which would weaken our appeal to the countless geniuses of the starry sky. Are you sure you want to change it?"

She, along with many other supreme beings, opposed this matter, seeing the potential harm it could cause.

This title itself puts her at a disadvantage compared to the True Immortal of Ten Thousand Laws, just like the difference between a king or an emperor, which is detrimental at least in terms of propaganda.

"On such and such a day..."

"What kind of designation is this?"

Jiang Ding asked.

"He is an immortal."

"A name for the abode of immortals."

The Holy Maiden of Fusang hesitated for a moment, then said, "This is indeed an overstepping of authority, but many emperors throughout history have used this title, and it was only 'Huangtian' (皇天) instead of 'Tian' (天). This has been proven in history to be harmless."

Even the human emperor has vanity.

Naming one's residence "Huangtian" is a manifestation of vanity.

It is unknown which emperor adopted this title, but subsequent emperors tacitly followed suit and used it without any apparent harm.

Later, the power was further decentralized, and even the true fairy called herself the Emperor of Heaven.

"That's not necessary."

"My reverence for immortals is boundless. I pay attention to even the smallest etiquette, even if true immortals never cast their gaze upon the endless starry sky, even if we are just ants in the eyes of true immortals."

Jiang Ding said with some regret, "Even so, I will not overstep my bounds."

"I understand, Your Majesty."

The Holy Maiden of Fusang stopped trying to persuade her.

Silence fell upon the palace once more.

The Holy Maiden of Fusang did not like this kind of quiet. She preferred to wield power over the star field, to represent the True Fairy in appeasing the emotions of the supreme beings in various places, to inspect the local conditions on behalf of the True Fairy, and to use the magic of ruling the fortune to check the hidden dangers in various parts of the star field and try to resolve them.

The Supreme Great Sun Dao Court between star fields has more room for maneuver precisely because of her.

Because of her, the organization's operational efficiency has increased significantly, internal friction has decreased, and personnel deployment has become more efficient. This is something she has been learning and something she enjoys.

The Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy, on the other hand, only enjoys cultivating and developing immortal technology, showing little interest in these other things.

……

Unbeknownst to many, more than a thousand years have passed.

After the passing of the previous generation of Eight Tribulation Supremes, the Seven Star Domains began reforms and centralized power. The authority of many immortal sects was completely stripped away and all belonged to the Supreme Great Sun Dao Court, making the star domains one.

This caused a lot of chaos.

In many small places, in the lesser and middle worlds, the rulers have been in power for countless millennia, their rule is deeply entrenched, their thinking is extremely stubborn, they resist such radical change, they outwardly comply with reforms but inwardly defy them, and even violently attack and kill officials, they don't recognize anyone.

The Immortal Sect fleet and the Supreme Sun Sword Dao soldiers descended one by one to wipe out these people. The Supreme Sun Dao Court possessed all sorts of spells, including causal magic, time-reversal magic, tracking magic, and soul-searching magic; no living being could remain hidden or try to take advantage of the chaos.

In an instant, bloodshed and carnage erupted around the world, leaving millions dead.

Those who resist reform shall die!
No matter how great the reason, how many people obstruct it, or what traditions and ancestral laws exist, they all crumble under the will of the True Fairy.

Whether it's people, mountains, or world rules that are blocking the way, everything must make way!
Everything must be done in accordance with the true fairy's will!

This is the world of immortals, where the will of the strongest is everything.

Popular support, tradition, rules... are as light and insignificant as willow catkins in the face of the will of the strongest.

On this day, Jiang Ding left the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace and returned to the Nine Spirit Domain, back to the mother planet of the solar system, where he watched the thunderous tribulation rumbling in the sky in his true form.

"Jiang Ding,"

"They will definitely succeed."

Yuan stared intently at everything in the sky, his palms sweating, a hundred times more nervous than when he was undergoing his own tribulation.

Those undergoing tribulation are naturally the Myriad Machines Celestial, the Divine Machines Celestial, the Sun-Extinguishing Celestial, and others.

Their talent and abilities were top-notch at the time, but compared to the most outstanding figures in the immortal sects of this era, there was still a gap. Originally, they had at most a 50% to 10% chance of successfully paving their way to becoming supreme beings.

However, the affection of an endless starry sky overlord made up for everything.

"Yes,"

"Senior Yuan."

Jiang Ding nodded slightly.

He has already provided all sorts of opportunities and paved the way for them; now it's up to these old friends to live their lives.

The two waited patiently for a long time, watching intently. After an unknown amount of time, the dark clouds and thunder in the sky gradually dissipated, revealing the five beings undergoing tribulation.

Each of them exuded a powerful aura, their bodies radiating the oppressive force of the ultimate authority of the branches of the rules.

This is the supreme pressure!
Jiang Dinghe and Yuan smiled.

"Hahaha……"

"Today, I have finally ascended to the Supreme Realm..."

The Supreme Being of Annihilation laughed loudly and sighed, "It really is true that good fortune is worse than hard work. I never thought I would be able to advance to the Supreme level. I never dared to even dream of it before."

"Damn it, he should be able to live for another 700,000 years."

"Over 700,000 years!"

"That's enough, that's enough!"

The Supreme Ruler of Annihilation's loud laughter shook the surrounding area, his joy overflowing and influencing the rules and space around him.

"Ha ha!"

"That's true."

The Bone Forest Supreme, the Myriad Machines Supreme, and others standing to the side also wore smiles.

As for the Seven Tribulations Supremes, the True Fairy clearly told them that with so much external force and the path being cleared by others, they had no hope in this life. She told them to be mentally prepared, as she had already informed them before giving them various opportunities to avoid future resentment.

Although the true fairy does not care about other people's resentment.

They have the choice to do whatever they want.

No one would give up such an opportunity. Being able to advance to the Supreme level is a great opportunity and great fortune. The Seven Tribulations Supreme level is something they could never hope to achieve.

"Let's go, let's go,"

"Let's preach to the younger generation, and then we'll go for a drink!"

Yuan smiled broadly, took the hands of his old buddies, and led Jiang Ding toward the preaching platform.

　I'm not feeling well, so I'll stop here for today. I'll finish tomorrow.
