Everlasting Immortal Firmament

Jiangchen gazed at Cangjie, his expression growing somewhat somber.

Cangjie’s thoughts and his own were vastly different, almost polar opposites. However, Jiangchen understood that changing Cangjie’s mind was nigh impossible, given Cangjie’s unwavering determination, which allowed him to create cultural cultivation.

“Do you believe Gu Hai is a wise ruler, the kind you seek?” Jiangchen asked in a deep voice.

Cangjie shook his head. “I don’t know.”

“You don’t know?”

“I have served as an advisor to eighteen sovereigns, and they all failed. Who can guarantee that Gu Hai is the right one?” Cangjie replied with a smile.

Jiangchen fell silent for a moment. “How about this? Come assist me in destroying Sa. Besides that, I can fulfill your desires regarding all life.”

“You?” Cangjie looked at Jiangchen.

“That’s right,” Jiangchen affirmed firmly.

Cangjie shook his head gently. “I cannot assist you. You should understand why.”

Jiangchen knitted his brow slightly. After taking a deep breath, he sighed softly.

“Very well, since your heart is set on the Han Nation this time, I’ll respect your decision,” Jiangchen said calmly.

“Heart is set on the Han Nation?” Cangjie questioned.

“Yes, isn’t it? Your residence is meticulously arranged, every detail brimming with profound meaning. I’ve never seen you put so much effort into creating a ritual array based on the culture Dao. It seems that you hold Gu Hai in high regard. Is this ritual array specifically for Gu Hai? Haha! You must know that time is running out,” Jiangchen said calmly.

Cangjie did not deny it. He took a sip of tea.

Jiangchen let out a faint sigh at failing to elicit more answers from Cangjie.

“I’m leaving,” Jiangchen said after finishing his tea.

Buzz!

With a flash, Jiangchen disappeared from the spot.

Only Cangjie remained alone on the elevated platform, enjoying the breeze as he gazed in the direction of Borderless Heavenly Capital, lost in thought.

Great Desolation City, Yan Heavenly Dynasty:

Ming’s uninvited visit caused Ba and Jingwei to be exceptionally suspicious. Although Ming had not fought physically, his divine cultivation means surpassed everyone’s expectations. Consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators could not resist his curses at all.

With just a verbal command, even the sun cut off connection with the vermilion bird.

The vermilion bird had a natural affinity for the sun’s core flames, but Ming’s intervention prevented it from gaining the sun’s approval. Ba could not forget this incredible ability.

Ba hosted a banquet in Great Desolate City.

The officials attended the banquet, the highest form of welcome for Ming.

After the banquet, Ba dismissed everyone there. Then she and Ming sat down and chatted in a pavilion shelter in the palace while Jingwei brewed tea.

“I wonder, what brings the Nine Yin Sect Master to my Yan Nation?” Ba inquired with gravity.

“Many thanks for the hospitality. Yan Heavenly Emperor has been very patient, given that you asked only now.” Ming smiled faintly.ƒгeewёbnovel.com

“Huh?” Ba frowned slightly.

“I had already noticed when Yan Heavenly Emperor was sealed in the core of the world. Yan Heavenly Emperor suffered boundless torture, demonstrating unwavering determination. That’s why you have your current accomplishments,” Ming said.

“Sealed in the core? You noticed it? You saw me get sealed three thousand years ago?” Ba responded solemnly.

“No. It was one thousand years ago. I saw you when I roamed the world’s core.” Ming smiled.

“Roam the core of the world? Do you know what that place is? Haha!” Ba said with some disbelief.

Instead of explaining, Ming said, “You have an extraordinary affinity for fire. This is my primary purpose in coming here today.”

“Fire? It is because I am the fire-attributed zombie ancestor; that is common knowledge. I can’t be considered to have an extraordinary affinity for fire,” Ba rebutted indifferently.

“So then, how much do you know about fire?” Ming countered, smiling.

“Fire? Haha! I have already reached the peak of fire. How much do you think I know?” Ba said confidently.

“The peak of fire? I beg to differ.” Ming shook his head.

“Huh?” Ba looked at Ming with confusion.

I am the strongest in fire-attributed cultivation. Is there someone better than me? Even the Vermilion Bird Primes might not be as incredible as me in fire-attributed cultivation. Yet, that is still not the peak?

“How would you compare to the sun?” Ming looked at the sun in the sky.

Ba looked at the sun sinking behind the mountains.

“The sun has existed since the beginning of time, the core of the three thousand Great Dao’s crystallization. It possesses the might of the three thousand Great Dao; no one can compare to it,” Ba declared solemnly.

“No, you are wrong. The sun is not formed by the three thousand Great Dao.” Ming shook his head.

“Oh?”

“The sun was originally just an eye,” Ming said with gravity.

“An eye? Haha! Whose eye is so big and powerful?” Ba scoffed in disbelief.

Ming shook his head. “It is indeed an eye. I can control it because of some special circumstances, which allowed me to make it disdain the Vermilion Bird Prime.”

“That’s impossible. The sun is immensely vast and boundless, more than a hundred times—a thousand times—larger than my Great Desolate City. Even I cannot last for long in its intense flames. The blazing sun has existed since time immemorial, a lifespan equal to the heavens. How can it be just an eye? How could you control it? Haha! When you dealt with Zhu Liuliu, it wasn’t because you commanded the sun but because you cursed Zhu Liuliu, right?” Ba said coldly.

“You don’t believe me?” Ming smiled.

Jingwei also showed disdain. What a joke! How can one control the sun? Do you think you are the Six Paths Immortal?

However, Ming looked at the sun in the sky again and addressed it once more. “Oh, Sun! I’ll have to trouble you again. Rise from the west and prove I was telling the truth!”

Jingwei stared at Ming in shock. Has Ming turned stupid? Making the sun rise from the west? Do you think it will listen to you?

However, Ba’s pupils constricted as the setting sun suddenly trembled and slowly rose back into the sky.

The sun rose from the west.

“This…how is this possible?” Jingwei exclaimed.

Regardless of what Jingwei said, countless experts in the land of the living now looked at the sky, their expressions changing dramatically.

“The sun is rising from the west!”

“Am I seeing wrong?”

“Didn’t the sun just set?”

…

Countless people were shocked and horrified, thinking it was the end of the world.

------

Jiangchen, who just returned to Deity Seizing Hall, raised his eyebrows as he watched the sun slowly rise. Then, he shifted his gaze to Great Desolate City in the west. He seemed to sense that Ming had caused the sun to rise from the west.

------

At Essence Genesis Hall, Essence Genesis, who sat on a prayer mat, suddenly raised his eyebrows. However, he quickly regained his calm.

The pavilion shelter in Great Desolate City:

Ba looked at Ming with a grave expression.

“I was not lying, right?” Ming smiled.

“What do you want to say?” Ba asked solemnly.

Ming waved his hand at the sun.

Buzz!

The sun slowly resumed setting as if the sun rising from the west had merely been an illusion.

“So, how does your fire cultivation compare to the sun’s, in your opinion?” Ming smiled.

“The blazing sun possesses overwhelming might; nothing can compare to it. It is the true peak of fire. It is the ancestor of all fire; nothing rivals it,” Ba said gravely.

“No. Actually, you have the chance to rival it!” Ming smiled.

“Huh?” Ba said dubiously.

“You are the only person I think highly of in the land of the living. I’m here today to give you an opportunity.” Ming smiled faintly.

As Ming spoke, he produced a scroll with a flip of his hand.

“This is…?” Ba asked curiously.

“An opportunity for you to rival the sun!” Ming smiled faintly.

After speaking, Ming slowly stood up.

“You said earlier that you are already at the peak of fire cultivators in the world. However, you are not the strongest person in the world. At the very least, you cannot deal with Essence Genesis. I’ll give you this Divine Fire Sun Transformation Divine Cultivation Technique. It’s up to you whether to read it or not. However, I hope its contents will be limited to your eyes. You are not to leak it to anyone. I will destroy anyone who cultivates it besides you,” Ming said coldly.

Ba showed a slightly suspicious expression as she received the scroll.

However, Ming did not explain further. His centaur carriage was already nearby, so he boarded it.

“Ba, the sun’s might is boundlessly vast. It was truly an eye in the past. I can command it not because I can control it but because I have a connection with the eye’s owner. The sun recognizes me, giving me face,” Ming said before he left.

“Go!”

Whoosh!

The centaurs pulled the carriage, quickly taking to the sky. As they flew, the centaur carriage vanished into thin air, apparently having crossed the border between the land of the living and the nether realm.

As Ba watched Ming leave, she slowly unfurled the scroll, appearing suspicious.

“The Divine Fire Sun Transformation Divine Cultivation Technique?” Ba carefully read the scroll.

After reading, Ba turned extremely grave.

After memorizing every word of this divine cultivation technique, she immediately manifested fire in her hand and burned the scroll to ashes.

“Elder Sister, is this cultivation technique genuine?” Jingwei asked curiously.

“I don’t know, but it is indeed powerful and marvelous. After succeeding in cultivating it, one can transform into a sun, having the same strength. I would be able to sense the three thousand Great Dao with my body,” Ba said.

“It’s that extreme? I heard that the Vermilion Bird Primes were born from the sun. The sun is a world of fire, the source of all heat in the world. Transforming into a sun is simply too ridiculous, right?” Jingwei said.

“I’m not sure,” Ba responded.

“Elder Sister, how about you try cultivating it?” Jingwei suggested with anticipation.

Ba shook her head. “There is no free lunch in the world. I still haven’t figured Ming out. Who knows what his motive is in giving me this cultivation technique?”

“What should we do, then? We can’t get a read on him, and Elder Sister already accepted the scroll. Are you going to just ignore it? Regardless of Ming’s motive, we can deal with it step by step. Furthermore, what is there to hesitate over growing stronger?” Jingwei coaxed.

Ba remained in contemplative silence.

Ba sensed Ming had an ulterior motive. However, she verified that this cultivation technique could strengthen her. Should I cultivate it?

Ba looked at where Ming had disappeared. He came to participate in Essence Genesis’s meeting. Essence Genesis will have a decisive clash with the Six Paths Immortal one and a half years later.

Am I going to just watch at that time? Am I going to leave my fate to Essence Genesis or the Six Paths Immortal?

Ba narrowed her eyes. “Alright, then. I’ll give it a try. Let’s see if this divine cultivation technique is really that incredible.”

“Elder Sister will definitely grow more powerful!” Jingwei said with anticipation.

“Xingtian!” Ba called out.

The nearby Xingtian quickly rushed over. “This official is present!”

“Immediately head to the nether realm and investigate the Nine Yin Sect. We want to know all the relevant information!” Ba ordered.

“Yes!”
