#188 - Chapter 188: The Immortal Palace’s Plan, Famous in Ancient Times
On the massive throne, a towering and mysterious figure overlooked the Celestial Sun Ancestor.
It exuded an aura of terrifying power.
Even the Celestial Sun Ancestor, a remnant immortal, couldn't help but feel his soul tremble.
The strength of the Immortal Palace Master was simply too dreadful.
Though both were remnant immortals, he was far from being a match.
From the throne, the mysterious figure shrouded in mist and clad in black robes spoke, his voice filled with majesty.
"Celestial Sun, what is your decision?"
"Join the Immortal Palace, and I can restore the losses you suffered from this severe injury."
The Immortal Palace had long yearned to conquer the Desolate Ancient World.
If they could subdue a remnant immortal of this world, it would greatly aid their conquest plans, giving them a success rate of over seventy percent.
Every world of humanity possessed a world's Heavenly Dao.
Although the Immortal Palace was strong, a direct assault would be met with attacks from the world's Heavenly Dao, resulting in heavy losses.
Back then, when the Immortal Palace invaded the Xuanhuang Continent, it was because a group of native Great Emperors of the Xuanhuang World betrayed the entire world.
Otherwise, with the strength of the昊天 Great Emperor, the Immortal Palace would have suffered significant losses in trying to take the Xuanhuang World.
"Alright, I agree to join the Immortal Palace."
The Celestial Sun Ancestor hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and agreeing.
He understood in his heart that the Immortal Palace wanted to rely on him to conquer the Desolate Ancient World.
The blow from Di Shitian, although he hadn't died on the spot,
had resulted in a massive loss of energy, and he would likely die within a few years.
If he were to fall, what use would the Desolate Ancient World be to him?
His survival was the most important thing.
He wouldn't hesitate to sacrifice the lives of all beings in the Desolate Ancient World.
Moreover, the Celestial Sun Ancestor had once heard that the nine Palace Masters of the Immortal Palace were all old monsters who had lived for millions of years.
Logically speaking, not even true immortals, let alone remnant immortals with semi-immortal bodies, could live for a million years.
He deeply desired to know the methods the Immortal Palace Masters used to live for millions of years.
Who wouldn't want to live forever?
The lifespan of a remnant immortal was at most fifty to sixty thousand years.
As if seeing through the Celestial Sun Ancestor's thoughts, the mysterious figure in black robes laughed.
"Serve the Immortal Palace, and you too will have the chance to achieve immortality."
The Immortal Palace was extremely strange, mysterious, and powerful.
Their goal was to conquer various worlds of humanity.
It seemed that this was greatly related to their "immortality."
"I can help the Immortal Palace conquer the Desolate Ancient World, but you must first promise me one thing."
A strong killing intent appeared on the Celestial Sun Ancestor's face.
His hatred soared to the sky, and his eyes were extremely sharp.
"Speak," the mysterious figure in black robes nodded.
"Help me kill Di Shitian of the Heavenly Gate!"
"I must avenge the great grudge of the True Sun Sect."
The Celestial Sun Ancestor clenched his fists and said with a chilling killing intent.
"No problem."
"Soon, a group of Immortal Palace experts will descend."
"You open a world passage and let them enter the Desolate Ancient World."
"They will avenge you and the True Sun Sect."
The mysterious figure in black robes said.
"Heavenly Gate? Di Shitian? I've never heard of this power."
"Interesting, it actually has the ability to injure a remnant immortal."
The mysterious Immortal Palace Master became slightly interested in the Heavenly Gate.
Immediately, a golden pill appeared in the palm of his hand.
"This… this is the legendary immortal pill!"
The Celestial Sun Ancestor felt his breathing become extremely rapid.
"It can help you restore your depleted essence."
"Remember, do not forget what you promised me."
"Hahaha…"
After a burst of laughter, the mysterious figure in black robes disappeared.
The Celestial Sun Ancestor also returned to reality.
"Di Shitian!"
"You wait, I will definitely make you pay with blood!"
The Celestial Sun Ancestor said through gritted teeth.
Immediately, he swallowed the immortal pill and began to recover from his injuries.
...
The True Sun Sect was almost destroyed.
Even a remnant immortal was severely injured by him.
This news spread like a storm, quickly sweeping across the entire Desolate Ancient World.
Countless powerful beings were completely stunned.
The True Sun Sect!
A behemoth with a remnant immortal guarding it and nearly thirty Great Emperors.
A terrifying power in the Desolate Ancient World, second only to the Desolate Heaven Palace.
Such a super existence was almost destroyed.
It was too incredible and unbelievable.
"Great Emperor Red Gourd, Great Emperor Sky Piercing Sword, Great Emperor Nine Calamities… they have all fallen."
"Even the remnant immortal was severely injured."
"Who exactly is this Di Shitian of the Heavenly Gate?"
"This is too strong, killing twenty-one Great Emperor beings alone and severely injuring a remnant immortal."
"It seems the Desolate Ancient World is about to change?"
Everywhere in the Desolate Ancient World, countless cultivators were roaring madly.
The Heavenly Gate, this mysterious power, resounded throughout the entire Desolate Ancient World.
Di Shitian also became a great figure standing at the pinnacle of the world.
Everyone knew him.
Many old monsters who had been hidden from the world were alarmed.
A remnant immortal was defeated, could this strength already be the strongest in the Desolate Ancient World?
Even the peerless and unparalleled Goddess Divine Phoenix, the strongest woman in ancient and modern times,
was only able to draw with a remnant immortal back then.
Desolate Heaven Palace.
Within a secret cave world.
Countless figures as hot as the sun were sitting in meditation.
Among them, three figures were even more powerful, more radiant than恒星 stars.
"Terrifying!"
"That old monster Celestial Sun has been defeated."
"We have never heard of this Heavenly Gate Di Shitian."
"Could they be people from the Immortal Palace?"
An old man with white beard said with shock and worry.
"Hmph, the Immortal Palace has been making frequent moves recently, it seems they are eager to conquer the Desolate Ancient World."
"Not long ago, the Immortal Palace also sent people to compete for the inheritance of the Goddess Divine Phoenix."
"It seems they succeeded."
"Divine Phoenix was the strongest woman in ancient times, possessing great luck from our Desolate Ancient World."
"If the Immortal Palace takes away this luck, it will be very unfavorable for us."
Another old man on the verge of death said angrily.
"Yes, the Immortal Palace has malicious intentions, imprisoning the beings of a world and raising them like pigs."
"When needed, they harvest the lives of the beings of this world to achieve their own goals, it is hateful."
Each shining star emitted sounds of dissatisfaction.
"No… I don't think Di Shitian of the Heavenly Gate is from the Immortal Palace."
"Perhaps, we can cooperate with the Heavenly Gate to resist the Immortal Palace."
"Send people to investigate the Heavenly Gate, it would be best to speak with Di Shitian in person."
The brightest star spoke.
Everyone became extremely respectful.
"Yes!"
...
On the other side.
Jiang Ning had already returned to Yellow Dragon Peak.
He was somewhat disappointed that he had not been able to kill the remnant immortal of the True Sun Sect.
"My realm is still too low."
"If I were a Great Emperor, what would a remnant immortal be?"
"I could still kill him."
Jiang Ning thought to himself.
He had already made up his mind to personally go out and seek opportunities to quickly become a Great Emperor.
Although Jiang Ning could succeed by relying on his cheat and cultivating diligently for decades or centuries.
But he couldn't afford to wait that long.
The remnant immortal of the True Sun Sect was not dead, posing a threat to the Jiang family.
The mysterious power that sealed the Great Dao of the Xuanhuang World.
Back then, they also sent five sixth-order Quasi-Emperors to take him away.
For the safety of Little Fox, his younger sister, and Empress Mother, Jiang Ning must become a Great Emperor as soon as possible.
To support a piece of sky for everyone.
