Living in the deep palace

Leaving behind these words filled with endless profound meaning, Su Chen's figure slowly disappeared from the Dao platform.

Only the miraculous ancient desolate star field and the millions of immortal cultivators who were caught up in fanaticism and worship remained as proof that he had once been here.

"go!"

The Northern Emperor God King gritted his teeth.

He clenched his fist and spat out the word through gritted teeth.

Should have known so.

He should have killed that terrifying immortal when he was still weak back then.

If so.

Where would all these problems be now!
At most, he's just risking being corrupted.

Unlike now, where they've utterly humiliated themselves and completely ruined the reputation of the gods.

Most importantly, one's Daoist heart is clouded!

"grown ups."

"Isn't there that other thing?"

"Please ask the elders to intervene! We still have a chance..."

The Southern Ming God King was still not giving up and tried to persuade the Northern Emperor.

He knows a lot.

He knew that back then, that ancient being had given his master a treasure that could summon the intervention of a supreme god at a high level, no, a perfect supreme ferocious beast.

"roll!"

"If you want to die, then stay here yourself."

"These old bastards are taking advantage of my youth and trying to send me to my death!"

The Northern Emperor simply turned and left.

He gripped something tightly in his sleeve.

He wanted to activate it.

However, he eventually gave up.

He has feelings.

Even if a ferocious divine beast of the highest divine realm were to descend, it might not be able to kill the opponent.

that's it.

The massive army of gods arrived in triumph, only to slink away in disgrace, as if they were a laughingstock.

……

……

In the Tianxu Starfield, the battle that took place in the Ancient Wilderness was like a level twelve cosmic storm, sweeping across the vast starry sea in an unstoppable manner.

From a terrifying immortal to a terrifying ancestor.

And now, the Taiyi Dao Master, Su Chen!

Overnight, this name became something that all living beings and all forces had to look up to!

One glance was enough to suppress even the highest god!

Three words reshape the desolate star field!

This miraculous power has long surpassed everyone's understanding of "power"!

Countless small and medium-sized forces and ancient sects sent envoys to the newly established Taiyi Holy Land—the Ancient Wilderness Domain—offering their most precious congratulatory gifts and expressing their most humble submission.

In an instant, the name Taiyi resounded throughout the entire starry sea and the world!
The defeated gods, amidst desolation and humiliation, retreated in disarray to their ancestral lands.

……

……

Inside the Supreme Temple.

The atmosphere was so oppressive it felt like it was about to freeze.

Since his return, the Northern Emperor God King has locked himself in the Northern Underworld Temple and has not shown his face again.

All the God-Kings could sense that the aura of the "Northern Darkness Great Dao," which had once been powerful enough to freeze everything, had completely dissipated within that temple.

Instead, there was a deathly silence and decay that even they found unsettling.

They knew that their race's former supreme warrior, the supreme god who had dominated for several eras, was... finished.

My spirits have been dampened.

His Dao heart was shattered completely by that one glance, with no possibility of ever rebuilding.

"Tell me everything."

On the throne, an aged figure, expressionless, swept his gaze over the dejected and silent god-kings below, and spoke in a cold voice.

"What should our divine race do next?"

There was dead silence in the hall.

No one dared to speak.

War? What can they possibly fight with? Even a supreme being like the Northern Emperor God King was suppressed by the opponent with a single glance. If they rushed forward, what difference would it make from moths to a flame?
Surrender? They are a divine race that has ruled this era for tens of thousands of years! How could their inherent pride allow them to lower their proud heads to a descendant they once regarded as "prey"?

"A bunch of trash!"

Looking at their appearance, the aged god-like figure's eyes flashed with disappointment and anger. He slammed his hand on the armrest of his throne and roared!
"Has one defeat shattered all your courage?!"

"Our divine race, since its rise in ancient times, has fought countless battles. When have we ever faced a truly hopeless situation?!"

Upon hearing this, the most senior ancient god-king from the Di clan mustered his courage and said bitterly, "My lord, it is not that we are afraid of battle."

"However... Su Chen's strength has... has completely exceeded our comprehension. That's not power, that's the absolute crushing of 'Dao'! In front of him, our proud supernatural abilities and laws are like child's play!"

"Yes, my lord."

“Even the Northern Emperor wouldn’t dare to fight to the death, let alone us,” another God-King chimed in. “Unless we can persuade the first generation of God Ancestors who are slumbering in the ‘Tomb of the Gods’ to be revived, then continuing to oppose him is tantamount to suicide!”

"The First Ancestor of Gods?" Upon hearing this, the aged figure's eyes flashed with a disdainful sneer. "Those old things have long been corrupted by the dust of time. If they truly had courage, would they have stood by and watched the God Race fall to this state?"

He slowly rose from his throne.

His not-so-robust figure exuded a terrifying aura that was even more profound and dangerous than that of the Northern Emperor God King at this moment!
"Losing is not terrible."

The voice of the aged, divine figure became incredibly cold and calm.

"What's scary is that they don't even know where they went wrong."

He looked down at the still bewildered god-kings and slowly said, "We lost because of the 'Dao'. Our proud divine Dao is utterly vulnerable before the so-called 'Taiyi Dao'."

"Since direct confrontation is no longer effective."

A cold and eerie smile curved at the corner of the aged, divine figure's lips.

"Then why don't we try a different approach?"

"Since we can't beat him."

"Then, let's... join him!"

what? !

Upon hearing these words from the aged divine figure, all the divine kings in the hall were greatly shocked!
"My lord! You mean... we should submit to Su Chen?!" "Submit?" A hint of mockery flashed in the old god's eyes. "No, that's too low-level."

"I mean……"

His voice, like the whispers of the devil, rang in the ears of every god-king.

"Didn't he want 'the great Dao to contend'? Didn't he set up many Dao platforms to welcome all races to discuss the Dao?"

"Then we will do as he wishes!"

"From this day forward, select the most intelligent and talented young generation from among my divine race! Send them all to the 'Taiyi Dao Platform'! To learn and comprehend his so-called 'Taiyi Dao'!"

"Go, learn everything about him! Integrate it into the Shinto system, master it completely! Then... find his weakness!"

"If his 'Tao' is truly perfect, that would be even better..."

In the eyes of the aged, divine figure, gleamed a light that was almost insane, a light called "ambition."

"Then we will thoroughly integrate his 'Dao' into the bloodline of our divine race! We will use his 'Dao' to arm ourselves!"

"Use his spear against his shield!"

"One day, we will create something entirely new and truly invincible, surpassing even 'Taiyi'—"

"New Shinto!"

"And that is why our divine path was able to destroy the immortal realm, create a new divine race, and establish the divine era!"

The voice of the aged, divine figure was filled with endless seduction and incitement!
Those god-kings who had been despondent had their hopes rekindled after hearing his astonishing plan!

Yes!

Since we cannot destroy him from the outside, let's dismantle him from the inside! Corrupt him!
This might be the only chance for their divine race to turn the tide!

……

Just as the gods devised this treacherous plan to bide their time and rise again,...

In the deepest part of the vast starry sea, there lies a region shrouded in endless filth.

The "tainted sun" that hung high in the sky, transformed from Zuo Qingcang, trembled violently without warning at that moment!
boom--!
A jet-black beam of light, more violent and filled with the will of "chaos" and "destruction" than ever before, shot out from the core of the polluted sun!

The beam of light did not strike any part of the starry sea, but instead pierced through the void and shot towards the world behind the invisible "door"!

It seemed to be conveying some kind of... anxious and uneasy signal!

This slight disturbance went unnoticed by anyone except Su Chen.

Taiyi Immortal City.

Today, this place is no longer the desolate Sea of ​​Sorrow that had just experienced the ravages of war.

As the ancient desolate star field was transformed into a new holy land, most of the cultivators and resources have already migrated there.

And this original immortal city, under Su Chen's will, has once again become quiet and solemn.

This place became the true core of Taiyi Palace, where only the most loyal and highest-ranking members were qualified to reside.

Inside the Hall of Longevity.

Su Chen succinctly informed Jin Guang Ancient Immortal of everything that had happened in the Ancient Wilderness Starfield, as well as the reactions of the Golden Immortal Alliance and the God Clan.

"My lord... do you mean that you have opened that miraculous ancient wilderness to everyone? Even... including those Golden Immortals and gods with ulterior motives?"

After listening, Jin Guang Gu Xian's face was filled with confusion and worry.

In his view, Su Chen created such a heaven-defying sacred place for cultivation, which should rightfully be enjoyed exclusively by Taiyi Palace as the foundation for its existence in the Star Sea.

"No matter how fertile a piece of land is, its output is ultimately limited."

Su Chen looked at him and explained calmly.

"What I want is not a piece of land, but... the entire Star Sea."

"The Ancient Wilderness Domain, seemingly a place for discussing the Dao, is in fact the 'Qi Destiny Array Eye' that I set up. It can continuously gather the faith, will, and even the understanding of the 'Dao' of all living beings in the entire star sea."

"With this power, I can set up the true 'Zhou Tian Xing Dou Gui Yuan Grand Array' to unify the 'order' of the entire star sea! In this way, I can completely wipe away the 'tainted sun'."

Upon hearing this, Jin Guang Gu Xian was greatly shocked. He finally understood what a magnificent plan was hidden behind Su Chen's seemingly "selfless" actions!

"Then... my lord, you gathered such a vast amount of power, just to wipe away the 'tainted sun'?" Jin Guang Gu Xian couldn't help but ask.

"No." A complex emotion flashed in Su Chen's eyes. He looked up at the boundless starry sky outside the hall, as if he saw a resolute figure who had long since passed away.

"And also for a promise that has been owed for ten thousand years..."

"To save someone who should have died..."

"To come back to life."

"This is an experiment!"

To bring someone who should have died back to life.

If these words were spoken by anyone else, even a Golden Immortal, Golden Light Ancient Immortal would only consider it a fool's dream.

Life and death are the most fundamental and ironclad laws of the universe! Reincarnation is a forbidden realm that even a Great Luo Golden Immortal finds difficult to completely control!

Since the First Era, life and death have become irreversible, especially the life and death of immortals. Since the Ninth Era, the river of time has stood still.

Even if you reach the summit, it will be difficult to go against the current, return to the past, and rewrite the future!

However, when these words came from the mouth of the Dao Lord who could suppress the supreme god with a single glance and reshape the star field with a flick of his hand, it was astonishing.

In Jin Guang Gu Xian's heart, however, a sense of absurdity, yet undeniably real... anticipation arose.

Perhaps this Dao Lord, who has long transcended common sense, can truly create miracles that have never been recorded even in mythology.

"My lord..." Jin Guang Gu Xian's voice trembled slightly, "Is the one you wish to resurrect... Wu Xin Xian?"

Su Chen did not answer, but simply nodded slightly.

This is just an experiment.

If he, as the Immortal Taiyi, could truly achieve this, then he would rewrite the past and give a bright future to the mortal realm, the five regions of mountains and seas, and all his old friends.

He slowly closed his eyes, and at this moment, his entire aura seemed to merge with the entire Taiyi Immortal City, the five Dao Platforms that echoed each other from afar, and the "order" of the entire vast star sea!
"The way of cause and effect is to trace back to the source!"

Buzz—! ! ! !

An invisible yet profound fluctuation, seemingly containing all the information and connections in the universe, suddenly spread out from his body!
Within his "Dao Lord's Vision," the entire world is transformed into a vast network woven from countless "causal threads," some bright, some dark, some thick, some thin!
Every living being, every star, every grain of dust has its own unique thread of cause and effect. They are connected and intertwined with each other, forming the incredibly complex yet incredibly intricate picture of destiny in this universe.

What Su Chen needs to do now is to find, among the billions of threads of cause and effect, that one thread of fate that belongs only to the "Heartless Immortal" and has long been broken!

This is an incredibly vast and incredibly difficult project!

Even with Su Chen's current cultivation level as a "Dao Master", he felt a sense of mental exhaustion.

His divine thoughts, following the deepest "memory" node related to the Heartless Immortal, began to flow upstream.

He witnessed the tragic scene ten thousand years ago when Wuxinxian, in order to protect him, recklessly self-destructed during that fierce battle, annihilating both his body and soul.

He saw, even earlier, at the Sea of ​​Separation, the moments when the two fought side by side against foreign enemies and forged a deep friendship.

He witnessed the scene from the very beginning, in the Immortal Alliance, where that taciturn young man with incredibly clear eyes first expressed goodwill towards him, this "terrifying immortal."

Countless fragments of memories flashed rapidly through his mind like a movie rewinding!
at last!

When tracing back to an extremely ancient "origin," almost completely erased by the river of time.

Su Chen's divine sense suddenly jolted!
He's been found!
In that endless sea of ​​cause and effect, a thin, almost invisible silver thread, already broken into countless pieces, its light dimmed as if it would completely dissipate at any moment, appeared in his perception!

That is the "karmic connection" of the Heartless Immortal! (End of Chapter)
