Chapter 2412

Jiang Ding looked toward the direction of the immortal gate, his gaze deep and distant.

He had already discovered the financial fortune Dao, a very special path where danger and opportunity coexist, requiring extreme prosperity in industry and economy, likely only successfully developed in the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dynasty.

This means the financial fortune Dao has the possibility of becoming a sword.

A sword that, in the golden great age, cuts through the economies of many historical immortal dynasties, triggering violent upheaval—the financial sword!

What others lack, I have; what others have, I refine!

This special sword, many historical immortal dynasties likely have no resistance to it—used to stab the economy, one thrust is sure to work, possibly far beyond imagination, allowing the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dynasty in the golden great age to pull far ahead of other forbidden zone ancient emperors in production and economy.

The immortal gate is certain to undergo this process.

Jiang Ding slightly closed his eyes, continuing to deduce the heavenly Dao, pushing the immortal dynasty's scientific and technological development further.

Under the human emperor, the Dao flourishes in a prosperous age, a time of peace.

Time flows silently, unnoticed, over seven million years pass.

The endless cosmic starry sky has renewed its face again; even cultivators of the emperor realm with lifespans of tens of millions of years, before the ancient emperor, have already changed— in a daze, one cannot find a single new face from the last experiment; all have already fallen into eternal rest.

"Received is the new face of the mortal realm, Hu—" "The second nine-character immortal scripture experiment begins again——"

Jiang Ding opened his eyes, his gaze slowly falling upon the many emperor realm cultivators of the immortal dynasties, as well as the many quasi-emperor supremes, his eyes holding a hint of dazedness.

He always feels people come and go, yet none remain—an illusion of transience.

The gazes of these immortal dynasty emperor realm cultivators, and many cultivators who worship, fanatically admire, even cherish them, are all directed toward the human emperor on the crystal divine throne, as if gazing upon a deity that has existed eternally since the creation of heaven and earth.

"Fortunately, there is still—my wife."

Jiang Ding turned his head, looking toward the woman beside him.

The empress is by his side, always has been.

"Your Majesty?"

She blinked her eyes repeatedly.

She looked tenderly at her husband, the human emperor, the ancient emperor who has shone invincibly for an entire era, who will continue to reign over the world for long ages to come.

"Begin."

"This accumulation of fortune and achievement over twenty-four million years, the concentrated outbreak of immortal Dao wisdom."

Jiang Ding remained silent.

Now, the Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor is already twenty-five million years old.

In four million years, the last familiar figure beside the ancient emperor will depart, and the mortal realm will have no old faces left—what will it be like then?

Will the sentient beings of the mortal realm ultimately be alone?

"The second nine-character immortal scripture experiment,"

"Begin, fellow Daoists."

Jiang Ding looked toward each powerful cultivator of the Dao Ting, speaking softly.

"Yes!"

"Sword Master!"

The emperor realm cultivators and quasi-emperors throughout the immortal dynasty shouted in unison.

Compared to the experiment eight million years ago, these cultivators have become much calmer.

This is because the immortal dynasty's Ministry of Education has turned the experience of the previous experiment into teaching material, repeatedly simulated in the Great Dream Sword Realm countless times—these cultivators can be said to be seasoned veterans, battle-tested and skilled.

"Activate!"

Om!

Ommmm—

The three thousand heavenly Dao of the endless starry sky tremble; in countless worlds, the light of numerous experimental formations and instruments flickers on point by point, forming patterns, with golden lotuses surging from the earth, heavenly flowers falling in chaos, phenomena like Pangu opening heaven continuously appearing, the stars swaying, the great Dao manifesting.

The extermination-of-law Dao emerges from the starry sky, Great Prosperity, beginning to fundamentally alter the endless starry sky!

A twilight universe descends from above the nine heavens into the mortal realm.

The yin and yang celestial bodies grow dim, the essence of sun and moon begins to dissipate, the heavenly Dao, like a net covering everything, begins to collapse, spiritual energy begins to show inertia, the spiritual veins in the world disperse, spiritual stones deteriorate, divine peaks a million zhang high lose their support, trembling under gravity, on the verge of collapse—

In the endless starry sky, moreover, heavy rain appears, endless and continuous.

This is the rain of the end-of-Dharma era, raindrops falling upon the earth, causing immortal Dao spiritual substances to dissipate and seep into the land, stripping the earth at its essence of the ability to generate spiritual power; raindrops fall upon spiritual beasts, causing those already born with spiritual intelligence to become utterly foolish—

The entire endless starry sky begins to shift toward the end-of-Dharma era!

This does not conform to the cosmic cycle!

This is a defiance of the entire heavenly Dao, an attempt by an immortal dynasty to oppose fate!

Boom!

Crack-crack—

The terrifying power arrives as expected, causing the nine-character immortal scripture experimental formation of the Tai Shang Da Ri Immortal Dynasty to squeak, cracks appearing, on the verge of collapse and self-destruction.

This time, the many powerful cultivators of the immortal dynasty did not panic; everything proceeded according to the prearranged plan.

Occasionally, new abnormalities appear, but under the personal dispatch of the ancient emperor, they are all repaired one by one—everything remains calm and undisturbed in the immortal Dao, completely unlike the first nine-character immortal scripture experiment.

One millisecond.

Two milliseconds, three milliseconds.

The second nine-character immortal scripture experimental formation achieved its preset goal, persisted for another half millisecond, then collapsed entirely, tearing through the endless starry sky's darkness for who knows how many hundreds of millions of light-years.

The body of the Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor trembled, his face turned deathly pale.

That is all.

Nothing more.

The backlash power of the formation is far weaker than last time.

"Sword Master——"

Many emperor-realm cultivators and quasi-emperor cultivators looked carefully at the ancient emperor.

"Success."

"Fellow Daoists, rest for a moment."

Jiang Ding suppressed the surging magic power within his body, gave a slight smile: "You've all worked hard."

"Hahaha!"

"Thank you, Sword Master—"

Countless strong cultivators of the immortal dynasty rejoiced greatly.

Participating in such a successful Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experiment will be an extremely important credential on their cultivation path, greatly benefiting their future cultivation.

Tens of thousands of years later, the data organization for the second Nine-Character Immortal Scripture experiment was completed.

In an instant, the aura of Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang suddenly surged greatly, becoming more transcendent, and his entire body felt clear and pure as if washed.

"Your Majesty?"

The empress held her breath, looking toward the ancient emperor.

"Success, soft persimmon."

"No accidents at all."

Jiang Ding pointed with his finger, and a dusk-simulated primordial ancient scroll appeared floating in the celestial pivot.

It is complete, naturally the center of Wu Jin Kong Kong, possessing forbidden-area ancient emperor-level precision in calculating the immortal dao cosmic constants, with every line so clear, without the guesswork and vagueness present at many nodes in the previous simulated primordial ancient scroll, requiring many unknown risks.

This simulated primordial ancient scroll can calculate the forbidden-area ancient emperor-level immortal dao cosmic constants with one hundred percent accuracy!

This means the probability of Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang advancing to forbidden-area ancient emperor is one hundred percent!

"How many years"

"Your Majesty has finally achieved your wish; the consort's heart is filled with utmost joy."

The Fusang Empress felt a great stone fall from her heart, with faint tears appearing in her eye sockets.

After another few million years, she will have to leave the ancient emperor, her only worry being that she might fall into an eternal sleep, and upon opening her eyes again, she would never see the ancient emperor once more.

Now, this final worry has vanished.
