Chapter 2170: The Final Battle for the Emperorship Approaches, The Immortal Gate's Retreat Route

After a detailed examination of the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm, Jiang Ding bid a reluctant farewell to the Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns.

Both sides felt somewhat reluctant to part.

In the current endless starry sky, for the Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns, the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy was the only person they still knew, representing a period of their youth and attachment; apart from the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy, there was nothing else.

The Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy felt similarly.

During those years in the Fallen Immortal Realm, the Sun Sword Disciple and the Yin Sword Disciple of that time were an indispensable mark.

However, time cannot be eternal.

"Jiang Ding Zi, do you intend to rebuild the Great Sun Sword Pavilion?"

asked the Sun Sovereign.

The Great Sun Sword Pavilion was, in fact, the sect that had iterated and re-emerged from the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm; it was the lineage inheriting from the Pure Yang Qingse Jianzong, the Yin-Yang Qingse Jianzong, and the Great Yin-Yang Sword Realm. The Sun Sovereign held affection for this sect, a lineage history beginning with the Pure Yang Ancestor and the Pure Yang Qingse Jianzong.

"Leave this matter to the nineteenth Great Sun Sword Lord to handle."

Jiang Ding did not answer directly.

Currently, it is the era of the eighteenth Great Sun Sword Lord.

The foundational treasures of this sect—the Great Sun Immortal Golden Sword Embryo, the Great Sun Heavenly Pool, and the Sword Pavilion Inheritance Envoy—have all been elevated to the Emperor-Quasi rank, possessing immense power.

The Great Sun Sword Pavilion lineage is a vital branch of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy's inheritance and will not abandon the legacy.

Provided that it does not affect the continuation of the Immortal Gate.

Accompanied by numerous maids and the Fuso Empress, the two exchanged many old stories and discussed many things.

They talked about many things from when the previous Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns were alive, recalling the events of those years, appearing chatty and lacking the decisiveness and straightforwardness of sword cultivators.

The Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns escorted them step by step, sending them off for hundreds of millions of kilometers before still refusing to stop, extremely reluctant to part.

Yet ultimately, the farewell reached its end.

The figures of the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy and the numerous maids gradually vanished, returning to the Zhu Que Heavenly Palace.

This palace, located at the center of the Zhu Que star sectors and built amidst the ruins of the True Phoenix Red Flame Emperor Heaven, was surrounded by layer upon layer of star sector arrays, appearing vast and solemn.

Dragon Girl Cai Wei, Phoenix Girl Yun Xi, and other maids gradually dispersed, beginning to receive the Master Tushan Maid Inheritance.

In the palace, only the Head Maid Gong Gong Caiyu, an Emperor-Quasi, and the Fuso Empress remained.

The two women's gazes were somewhat gentle.

They both saw that the Sword Fairy's mood was not good, that her emotions were somewhat sorrowful, and silently accompanied him to lessen his sense of loneliness and isolation.

That cold sword cultivator who roamed the endless starry sky also had feelings.

The youth in green robes stood motionless in the palace for a long time.

"This should be the last time I see that boy, the Sun Sword Disciple."

"In life, parting is inevitable."

Jiang Ding sighed lightly.

The Sun Sword Disciple from the past still has over a hundred thousand years of lifespan remaining; he is already a Seven Tribulations Sovereign entering his twilight years.

The next generation of Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns will surely possess strength far surpassing this generation's Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns, driving the progress of the Great Yin-Yang Sword Dao with peerless talent to glorify this sect, but they will no longer be the Supreme Yin and Sun Sovereigns he knows.

Time rolls on, taking away too much.

The Qingfeng Qingfeng Beidou Star Sectors.

The Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace.

Jiang Ding had held court in the Zhu Que Star Sectors for over twenty thousand years, and then returned once again to this, his main base.

Because this star sector was developed earlier, it has more talents, dozens of Emperor-Quasis, and a wealth of research institutions and projects; this is truly his research center.

After confirming the Zhu Que Star Sectors had stabilized, he returned here.

This time, Jiang Ding did not summon the numerous Emperor-Quasis to discuss state affairs and Immortal Dao research matters.

Because every matter was being handled and researched in an orderly fashion, and key projects had his soul threads participating; one could say he was the core of the Dao Court's research, and this aspect could not be delayed.

Jiang Ding took a step forward.

The surrounding heaven and earth flowed, time and light shifted, and he had already arrived at a familiar star system possessing eight planets and one star.

This is the Solar System.

This is the Golden Emperor Palace, located in the deepest depths of the Immortal Capital Library on the Immortal Gate's mother planet.

An extremely important meeting was currently underway here; Yuan, Zhen, Lu, the Sun Destruction Sovereign, Teacher Gu Lin, and the Cang Hai Sovereign were all in attendance.

Looking from afar, it seemed as if Sovereigns were falling like rain, with Emperor-Quasis occasionally seen; what a magnificent and glorious Immortal Dao holy land of the endless starry sky, making it impossible to imagine that this faction once had only a few Soul Transformation cultivators.

Lu is the current ruler of the Immortal Gate.

He once developed antimatter reactor warships and Immortal Dao Anti-Magic Immortal Spirit Warships; with peerless talent and aptitude, he made major contributions in both non-spiritual technology and Immortal Dao technology, and established many military merits on the battlefield.

His true name is Lu Yuan; to distinguish him from Yuan, he is referred to as Lu by many Immortal Gate cultivators.

This meeting is named the Immortal Gate Strategic Research and Development Conference.

Unlike the Dao Court meetings in the Supreme Great Sun Heavenly Palace, this meeting extremely emphasizes the interests of the Immortal Gate; the interests of the Dao Court are secondary or even irrelevant.

At this meeting, Jiang Ding attended as an observer in the capacity of a citizen, not as the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy.

"... From the current situation, the slaughter among the True Fairies of the endless starry sky has entered its final stages; a final victor is about to emerge, and the probability of this final victor becoming an Emperor is extremely high..."

"Judging from various signs, a new Emperor will appear within at most two million years."

"... In such a turbulent and critical era, how should the Immortal Gate position itself?"

Lu spoke at the center of the conference, his voice calm and powerful.

In the hall, numerous Immortal Gate Sovereigns and Emperor-Quasis fell into thought and deduction; the Immortal Gate Central Array Spirit Computer has now reached the seventh heaven of the Emperor-Quasi realm, currently integrating the soul computing power of numerous Immortal Gate Emperor-Quasis and Sovereigns, as well as the powerful soul strength of the Immortal Gate, to deduce the future.

"If the Supreme Great Sun Sword Fairy wins, the Immortal Gate will welcome an opportunity for further development."

"The Immortal Gate will surely produce a Nine Tribulations Sovereign; in the future era, the collective will of the Immortal Gate has a greater possibility of becoming a True Fairy, or even the possibility of becoming the Human Emperor of the Swarm Will..."

Lu dominated the flow of the meeting, as one Supreme of the Immortal Sects after another rose to speak.

It was the Supreme of Extinction Day who proposed this conjecture.

Many Supremes of the Immortal Sects turned their gaze toward a youth in green robes.

"... So it is."

Jiang Ding sighed.

He wanted to say that he wished to become an Immortal in this very life, needing no future.

Yet, he himself hardly believed those words; lacking too many prerequisites, such a statement could not be spoken with resounding force.

"If the Supreme Great Sun Sword Immortal Maiden is defeated, then from the current perspective, the victor may emerge from among the True Immortal Maiden of Ten Thousand Dharma or the True Divine Son of the Weaver's Daughter. These are the three most powerful True Immortal Maidens in the current endless starry sky, each holding the lives of two or three True Immortal Maidens in their hands."

"The True Immortal Maiden of Ten Thousand Dharma may leave a place for the Immortal Sects within the Immortal Dynasty she envisions."

"The True Divine Son of the Weaver's Daughter, however, holds deep loathing for the Human Race. During the era of the Ten Thousand Dharma Immortal Dynasty, this divine position was once a forbidden concubine of the Imperial Family, having suffered terrible torment, and she bears intense hatred toward the Human Race."

"If she becomes Emperor, she may slaughter the entire Human Race of the endless starry sky, driving them to extinction..."

"In any case, the Immortal Sects must consider their escape route."

Lu said in a heavy voice.
