Chapter 2411: Fragmented Supreme Great Sun Forbidden Zone Scripture

Finally, after a million years,

The data from the first experiment of the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture has been organized.

Jiang Ding's pupils reflected the cosmic stars, the river of time shifting, as he murmured.

Before him, a faintly visible primordial scroll of the Supreme Great Sun hovered in the void, shining with extraordinary radiance, emitting an aura similar to that of the ancient forbidden zone emperor, yet somehow not quite.

The Empress of Fusang held her breath, gazing upon this most brilliant crystallization of the Immortal Dao over eighteen million years of the Immortal Dynasty.

"Your Majesty, is this not the complete primordial scroll of the forbidden zone ancient emperor?"

The Empress inquired.

As a being whose fate is tightly bound to that of the ancient emperor, she immediately sensed something.

"Yes, this is merely a simulated model of the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture."

"It is somewhat incomplete."

Jiang Ding carefully admired his achievement, saying: "If one were to break through the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture according to this model, the success rate would be roughly sixty-five percent; burning oneself in a desperate breakthrough would raise it to seventy-five percent, with the remaining probability being the annihilation of both spirit and soul, the death of body and Dao."

"Even if successful, there would be lasting consequences, falling into severe injury, posing a certain obstacle to entering the Eight-Character Immortal Scripture realm, for the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture was hastily formed, many structures not perfectly conforming to Immortal Dao science, requiring a great cost at this stage to compensate."

"Of course, even so, this remains the lifelong dream of countless ancient emperors."

"If heaven grants me only one chance, I will surely break through—this is the reason."

The ancient emperor's tone was calm, stating facts.

"Pfft!"

"Yes, Your Majesty is precisely such a peerless heavenly pride of all ages."

The Empress of Fusang chuckled lightly.

"You soft persimmon, you certainly have good taste."

Jiang Ding said somewhat proudly.

Naturally, he would not break through now.

At least, he must conduct three consecutive experiments of the Nine-Character Immortal Scripture, repeatedly exploring the unknown, ensuring everything is absolutely flawless before joining the ranks of the forbidden zone ancient emperor.

Breaking through a realm should be done with ease and ease, not in a life-or-death moment of a hair's breadth.

This is not the way of nature.

"With this new forbidden zone scripture model as a guide, Immortal Dao science will still see some progress."

"Promoted further, the production speed of heavenly treasures and earthly riches in the boundless starry void will accelerate, requiring only about seven million five hundred thousand years to accumulate resources for a second Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experiment."

"Adding the mobilization and concentration of social capital by the financial fortune Dao—approximately seven million years later, the second experiment can begin."

Jiang Ding calculated, saying.

"Your Majesty is correct."

The Empress of Fusang smiled faintly.

Under the joint rule of the Empress and the ancient emperor, time in the boundless starry void races forward.

Time seems to have become immortal.

The ancient emperor hangs like a sun-star in the heavens; cultivators in the mortal realm—whether celestial beings, supremes, or quasi-emperors—die one after another, only to reappear, yet the ancient emperor remains unchanged, ever-present.

Mortal beings come and go, but the crystal divine throne still holds that same person.

Sometime unnoticed, the ancient emperor ceased leaving the Supreme Great Sun Celestial Pivot; mortal beings can no longer see his true form, only occasionally engaging in academic exchange with him.

Unnoticed, tens of thousands of years passed.

On this day, the Empress approached beside the crystal divine throne and softly said: "Your Majesty, another generation of Immortal Sect governors has fallen into slumber; the newly appointed Immortal Sect governor is Jin, born from the financial fortune Dao, an Immortal Dynasty realm cultivator skilled in financial supervision, who has perfected the Immortal Dynasty's financial supervision system over the past tens of thousands of years."

"From now on, the financial dynasty cultivators like Yun Jing Di have lost the ability to actively trigger financial crises in the Immortal Dynasty."

This came about under the ancient emperor's pressure, through the joint efforts of many financial fortune Dao cultivators of the Immortal Dynasty, finally appearing after millions of years as an effective system.

From now on, the newly emerged financial fortune Dao has been placed under strict supervision.

"Then,"

Jiang Ding slowly opened his eyes.

Many things, he had already known in his deductions, yet he still wished to find someone to talk to.

In the mortal world, the only one who can confide in the ancient emperor is the Empress—only her, and no other being in the mortal world is known to him.

"Jin has implemented financial reforms within the Immortal Sect."

"Making Immortal Sect production more efficient, internal affairs more orderly, Immortal Dao research funds more concentrated—but it has intensified wealth concentration among Immortal Sect citizens, strengthened worship of finance, wealth, industry, etc., in culture—namely—"

The Empress of Fusang's words hesitated slightly, as if unsure how to describe it.

But as a woman who has accompanied the Human Emperor for eighteen million years, she knows what the Human Emperor cares about and values; though she has no interest in the Immortal Sect, she will still strive to understand.

"Now, everything is good."

"It is only that the future may lead the Immortal Sect toward the abyss."

Jiang Ding slowly said: "Jin and those around him may not act with malice, merely unconsciously strengthening their own path of financial fortune Dao, and this reform truly benefits the Immortal Sect."

"But later, there exists a possibility of losing control, correct?"

The Immortal Sect is a polity where civilian and elite politics coexist; the financial fortune Dao is clearly influencing this polity and will corrode this organization.

"Yes, Your Majesty, exactly so."

The Empress rejoiced, like a little girl jumping with joy.

"Citizens may freely choose their own paths."

"Whether for survival or destruction."

"If it is truly the free will of citizens, un disturbed by outsiders, I will not interfere."

Jiang Ding let out a light sigh, saying.

As a being who has lived eighteen million years, he and the current Immortal Sect citizens have a severe generational gap; he can impose his ideas to make citizens accept them, but this does not align with the education he received since childhood.

"Central Array Spirit Computer?"

Jiang Ding called out in his heart, just as he had many years ago when he was a young child and merely a mortal.

Back then he was so fragile, he could only grow under the protection of the Central Array Spirit Computer, and now, after an interval of many tens of thousands of years, he called out once again, and it was the same.

"Citizen Jiang Ding, this is your request for aid after an interval of sixteen million two hundred seventy thousand years."

"Please speak."

The voice of the Central Array Spirit Computer remained the same emotionless mechanical tone, yet it involuntarily brought peace to the heart.

"The Central Array Spirit Computer bears the responsibility of guiding civilization's forward direction; the primordial sages of the first generation had long foreseen that some greed, laziness, and weakness in human nature would negatively impact civilization, especially after long periods of peace, so tell me, have you now seen the risks?"

Jiang Ding asked.

"I have seen the risks."

"But I cannot handle it; the financial fortune Dao is a completely new risk, the database contains no countermeasures, requiring citizens to experience it themselves, undergo rebirth through fire, and only then will the database be updated."

"The civilization's backup has already been prepared."

The Central Array Spirit Computer said.

This is a war, an internal evolution!

The immortal sect may fall in this internal turmoil, or may be reborn through fire; these are all unknown.
