Living in the deep palace

Su Chen's voice, like a decree from the heavens, echoed clearly in everyone's ears and quickly spread throughout the vast starry sea through various channels.

Taiyi Palace!
The terrifying immortal Su Chen is about to officially establish his sect in the Sea of ​​Separation and Hatred! He will pass on his invincible lineage and also build an immortal holy land called "Taiyi Palace"!

The terrifying immortals are about to establish their own sect!

The former number one on the strongest dragon list in history, the unprecedented number one on two lists, and the terrifying immortal who was rumored to have successfully defeated a Golden Immortal of the third realm while only at the second realm are about to start recruiting disciples!

Such news is nothing short of explosive.

In an instant.

The entire Five Regions Star Sea was in an uproar.

This news once again caused a huge uproar in Baohuangtian.

"Founding a sect? What does this terrifying immortal want to do? Does he want to emulate the ancient Heavenly Court and unify the starry sea?"

"What grand ambition! However, given his current strength and reputation, he does... have the qualifications!"

"Taiyi Palace... that's a powerful name. But how can a newly emerging force compare to those ancient lineages that have been passed down for generations?"

"However, I'm more curious about what the Fearful Immortal, who always acts alone, is planning to do this time?"

"I don't know if there's any news about selling it from the Listening Immortal Pavilion. I guess not, since it involves the Terrifying Immortal, and the Terrifying Immortal is basically equivalent to the Third Realm. It's impossible for a living Third Realm cultivator to deduce it!"

Countless cultivators discussed the matter, some optimistic and others pessimistic, but without exception, they all paid great attention to the soon-to-be-born "Taiyi Palace".

Su Chen ignored the commotion outside.

The day after announcing the establishment of Taiyi Palace, he issued three founding decrees that shook the starry sea in front of all the cultivators in the city.

"First decree: The gates of Taiyi Palace are wide open, welcoming disciples from all directions! Regardless of race, origin, or past, as long as one's heart is devoted to the Great Dao and one passes the examination, one may enter my sect and cultivate the supreme immortal arts!"

The moment this decree was issued, the entire city was in an uproar!

Regardless of origin or race? In the vast starry sea where factions are numerous and bloodlines are strictly defined, this is simply unheard of!

It's important to understand that even so-called prestigious sects face numerous constraints when accepting disciples, placing great emphasis on lineage and bloodline. Su Chen's actions, however, undoubtedly broke with the traditions that have existed in the Star Sea for billions of years, opening a door of hope for countless cultivators of humble origins who aspire to the Great Dao!
"Second decree: Three days from now, I will erect the 'Taiyi Dao Stele' in Taiyi Square! The stele will be inscribed with my insights into the Great Dao I have cultivated to this day, as well as some essential points from the 'Taiyi Demon Suppression Record'. All beings in my Taiyi Immortal City, whether or not they are members of my palace, may study and comprehend it before the stele. Those with profound affinity may be able to gain some insight and glimpse the mysteries of the supreme Great Dao!"

Upon hearing this decree, the entire square fell into a deathly silence!

Immediately following was an overwhelming wave of ecstasy and exclamations!

"What?! The Taiyi Dao Stele?! Publicly revealing insights into the Great Dao?!"

"The Taiyi Demon-Suppressing Record! That's the legendary supreme technique that allowed the terrifying immortal to rise to power against all odds! He... he's actually willing to reveal a portion of it?!"

"My God! Am I dreaming?! This is like an unparalleled opportunity being handed to us for free!"

All the cultivators went mad! The way they looked at Su Chen was no longer just awe, but... fanaticism! Like the most devout believers looking up at their god!
The cultivation insights of a powerful being, especially one like Su Chen who stands at the pinnacle of the starry sea, are of immeasurable value! Even the slightest insight is enough to enlighten a Xuanxian-level expert and help them break through their bottleneck!
And Su Chen is actually willing to make such a precious thing public?!

Such magnanimity and spirit are unheard of throughout history!

Su Chen looked at the fervent expressions of the crowd below, but his expression remained calm.

He had his reasons for doing this.

Although the "Taiyi Demon Suppression Record" is profound, it is not something everyone can cultivate. What he has revealed is only the most basic and universal part of its true meaning of laws, enough to benefit the vast majority of cultivators, but without touching the true core.

What he wanted was not to cultivate a few top experts, but to... enhance the overall strength of the entire Taiyi Palace, and even the entire Tianxu Star Region!

What he wanted was to cultivate thousands upon thousands of core forces capable of fighting against the potential catastrophe of the future!
"The third decree!"

Su Chen's voice rang out again, silencing all the noise.

"Taiyi Palace, Hall of Merit! Anyone who has rendered meritorious service to this palace can exchange it for whatever they need. From small things like elixirs and magical treasures, to big things like personal guidance from me, and even... the complete cultivation method for the later stages of the 'Taiyi Demon Suppression Record'!"

"In my court, there is no distinction of seniority or social status! Only... merit!"

"Do you have any objections?"

Su Chen's gaze swept across the entire room like two sharp swords.

"We...will obey the decree!"

"I am willing to die for Taiyi Palace! I am willing to die for you, my lord!"

This time, the response to him was a unified roar from the depths of his soul!

In everyone's eyes burned a raging flame! It was the flame of hope, the flame of passion, the flame of fervor for which they were willing to give everything!

Su Chen's three decrees were like a shot in the arm, completely igniting the immortal city that had just experienced the flames of war!

A brand new era, full of infinite possibilities and hope, seems to be... within reach!
Looking at the scene of everyone's hearts turning to him, and at that peerless figure in white robes who could stir up the winds and clouds of the heavens with his own power, Jin Guang Gu Xian was filled with endless emotion and a trace of... relief.

He knew that his initial choice was not wrong.

Following such a being, perhaps... we can truly witness an unprecedented... glorious era!
……

……

The news of Taiyi Palace opening its doors to disciples and erecting a grand stele spread like wildfire, faster than light, to every corner of the vast starry sea.

One stone caused a thousand waves!

The entire Star Sea, especially those struggling at the bottom who lacked connections and resources, was in complete uproar!
"Have you heard? The Taiyi Palace in the Tianxu Starfield accepts disciples regardless of their background! As long as you pass the test, you can learn the supreme immortal techniques of the fearsome immortal!"

"It's not just immortal techniques! The terrifying Immortal is even going to erect the 'Taiyi Dao Stele' and publicly reveal his insights into the Great Dao! Heavens, this is a terrifying existence for which even Golden Immortals have fallen. How precious must his insights be!"

"Let's go! What are we waiting for! Rather than struggling here and exhausting our lifespan without ever reaching the threshold of the Profound Immortal realm, let's go to the Heavenly Void Star Region and give it a shot! Perhaps, this is a golden opportunity for us to soar to the heavens!"

"Let's go! Let's go! I'm willing to sell my possessions and cross the sea of ​​stars, just to spend a day studying the Taiyi Dao Stele!"

In an instant, countless cultivators, riding all sorts of immortal ships and magical treasures, came from all directions of the vast star sea, like a swarm of locusts crossing a river, rushing towards the Tianxu Star Region, which was once remote and desolate but has now become the focus of the entire star sea.

Among them were veteran immortals nearing the end of their lifespan, seeking a final glimmer of hope for a breakthrough; young geniuses with exceptional talent, yet suppressed due to their humble origins; ascetics weary of killing and strife, single-mindedly pursuing the Dao; and even some powerful individuals from other races, attracted by Su Chen's promise of "regardless of race," embarking on a journey to the Tianxu Star Region with a try-it-out mentality.

An unprecedented grand spectacle of "ten thousand immortals paying homage" has begun.

……

……

The Immortal City of the Sea of ​​Sorrow has officially been renamed the Immortal City of Taiyi. Now,

This place has completely transformed into a city that never sleeps.

Every day, hundreds and thousands of immortal ships arrive from all parts of the starry sea, bringing with them tens of thousands of cultivators full of hope and longing.

The city is expanding at a visible speed.

Jin Guang Gu Xian and his elders were extremely busy.

Settling in newly arrived cultivators, maintaining order in the city, screening out spies with ill intentions, allocating scarce cultivation resources... every single task left them overwhelmed.

"My lord, this can't go on!" On this day, Jin Guang Gu Xian, with two huge dark circles under his eyes, found Su Chen, who was sitting in meditation in the Taiyi Hall, and said with a bitter face.

"The number of immortal cultivators of various races in the city has now exceeded ten million! And it is still increasing by hundreds of thousands every day! Our reserves of immortal marrow stones and pills can only last for half a month at most! At that time, it will probably cause great chaos!"

Upon hearing this, Su Chen slowly opened his eyes, his expression calm.

"Don't worry about resources, I have my own solutions."

He stood up, took a step, and his figure appeared in the central square of Taiyi Immortal City.

The square was already packed with people, shoulder to shoulder. Everyone was eagerly awaiting the completion of the three-day period and the arrival of the legendary "Taiyi Dao Stele".

"The time has come..."

Su Chen's voice clearly reached everyone's ears.

He slowly raised his right hand and gently pointed towards the empty center of the square.

Buzz—! ! ! !

In an instant, the world changed color, and the wind and clouds reversed!

An immense pressure, indescribable in words, erupted from Su Chen's fingertips!

Endless Taiyi Immortal Power, like a rushing galaxy, surged into the ground beneath the plaza!

Rumble!
The entire plaza, and indeed the entire Taiyi Immortal City, began to tremble violently!

Amidst the utterly shocked gazes of everyone, a colossal stone monument... a thousand feet tall, its entire body a pale gold, seemingly formed from the purest laws, slowly... rose from the center of the plaza!

There were no words or pictures on the stone tablet, only mysterious golden Dao traces that seemed to contain the secrets of the universe's birth and death, slowly flowing around.

The moment the stone tablet rose, a pure, peaceful, yet majestic and sacred aura of the Great Dao instantly enveloped the entire immortal city!

All the cultivators bathed in this aura felt a sudden clarity in their minds, as if the bottlenecks in their cultivation over the years had begun to loosen at this moment!
"This...this is...the Taiyi Dao Stele?!"

"Just the aura alone has shown signs of a breakthrough in the barrier that has troubled me for a hundred years! If only I could go forward and comprehend it..."

Everyone was trembling with excitement, their eyes filled with boundless fervor!
Su Chen nodded slightly as he observed the reactions of the crowd below.

This "Taiyi Dao Stele" is no ordinary stone stele.

Instead, it was a supreme treasure of the Great Dao formed by him using his own "Taiyi Dao Seed" as the core, merging it with the mysterious stone tablet obtained from the Heavenly Court's treasury, and then using the supreme Taiyi Immortal Power!
It not only contains Su Chen's understanding of the Great Dao, but it can also absorb the power of the universe's origin and nourish the entire Immortal City!

It can be said that as long as this stele stands here, Taiyi Immortal City will be an inexhaustible holy land for cultivation!

"The issue of resources has been resolved."

Su Chen's gaze shifted to the other side of the Immortal City, where a desolate mountain range lay.

He raised his hand again and gently waved it towards the mountain range.

"The Dao of Immortality - Spring Returns to All Trees!"

boom--! ! ! !

Behind him, the phantom of the nine-colored immortal tree that had long since merged with him vanished in a flash!
A nine-colored radiance, more magnificent than ever before, filled with endless vitality and the power of creation, fell like sweet rain upon the barren mountain range!

The next moment, a miracle happened!
The desolate and lifeless mountain range suddenly burst forth with boundless vitality at a speed visible to the naked eye!

Dead trees come back to life, and stubborn rocks grow moss!
One after another, rare and precious herbs, long extinct in the outside world, sprouted wildly from the ground like bamboo shoots after a spring rain!

In just a few breaths, that barren mountain range had been transformed into a... Supreme Medicine Garden, filled with immortal energy and spiritual herbs!
"This...this is...turning lead into gold? No! This is creating something out of nothing!"

Jin Guang Gu Xian was completely stunned by the miraculous scene before him. He muttered to himself, his eyes filled with endless horror.

He knew Su Chen was strong, but he never expected him to be so incredibly powerful!
Such methods have long surpassed the realm of Golden Immortals!
This... is simply the legendary... creator god!

After doing all this, Su Chen slowly withdrew his hand, as if he had only done a trivial little thing.

"Pass the order."

His voice rang out again.

"The herb garden is where all disciples can exchange their merits for what they need. The Dao stele is where all living beings can come and study."

"Our Taiyi Palace will provide you with an unprecedentedly fair cultivation environment."

"I have only one request."

Su Chen's gaze became sharp and authoritative.

"That is... loyalty!"

"Anyone who betrays my Taiyi Palace, no matter where they are in the world, no matter how high or low their cultivation level..."

"Kill! No mercy!"

A chilling killing intent instantly enveloped the entire area!

Everyone involuntarily shivered, a chill running down their spines.

They knew that the seemingly indifferent young man in white before them was not only a god who could grant them opportunities, but also... the supreme ruler who could decide their life and death!
"We...swear to serve Taiyi Palace to the death! We swear to follow you, my lord, to the death!"

The resounding oaths, like a thunderclap and a tsunami, once again echoed through the sky!

After this incident, the hearts of the people of Taiyi Palace were completely won over!

An unparalleled holy land, poised to shake the entire vast starry sea, has already taken shape! (End of Chapter)
