Chapter 2435: The Third Life of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang
Time began to grow still.
The time of the endless starry sky flowed day after day, the celestial dynasty efficiently carrying out the production of celestial-industry and celestial-agriculture, constantly accumulating vast amounts of heavenly treasures and earthly riches, enriching every cultivator of the celestial dynasty, and through reasonable and strict taxation, gathering them into the Great Sun Forbidden Zone, bit by bit enriching its foundation.
In celestial-path scientific research, many celestial-path scientists of the celestial dynasty had already adapted to the large amount of repetitive, useless work in celestial-path research, the extremely slow progress, which had become the norm, a habit.
In history, the celestial dynasty's scientific and technological breakthroughs occurred again and again, explosive leaps that were regarded as myths of history, things of legend, which no one would take as reality.
From a higher dimension, the endless starry sky was so quiet, day after day dullly repeating.
Time drifted slowly.
Unbeknownst to anyone, seventeen million years had already passed.
On this day, the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu, hanging high in the endless starry sky, suddenly dimmed, heaven and earth grew dark, the empirical formula of the celestial-path universe constant suddenly vanished, all the celestial dynasty's super-engineering projects fell into inefficient operation, the endless starry sky celestial-path ascension grand formation frequently reported errors, the operation of many great thousand worlds and minor thousand worlds deviated from their orbits, and in an instant the celestial dynasty fell into great chaos — — 【9】 "Sword Lord — — the Human Emperor's seal has disappeared — — "
"Sword Master — the Human Emperor's Mark has vanished — "
Many Emperor-realm cultivators and quasi-Emperors panicked just as they had thirty million years ago, as if the sky had collapsed.
In many places of the Great Dream Sword Realm, communication delays appeared, and the highest military and civil officials of many great thousand worlds hastily activated emergency plans, fiercely suppressing local areas, awaiting further instructions from those in the Tian Shu.
All of this was almost identical to what happened thirty million years ago.
All of this: let the supreme ruler of the endless starry sky detest — — such a boring, uninteresting life, such an unchanging life: having no equal to converse with.
The endless starry sky dimmed for several breaths.
Then, a hum!
The endless radiant Extinction Law Dao Crown once again stood firm in the endless starry sky!
One ancient emperor of the forbidden zone once again rose from death, returning against the long river of time, once again proving the Dao in the endless starry sky, the forbidden zone ancient emperor indifferently gazing upon all things in the endless starry sky, once again vanishing into the nine heavens.
The endless starry sky returned to normal once more.
The celestial-path universe constant formula resumed operation, all super-engineering projects functioned normally, communications everywhere returned to as before, with no brewing of even slightly noticeable unrest.
The Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang has ruled the endless starry sky for too long.
Sixty million years!
Exactly sixty million years!
Such a long span of time is enough to leave an indelible mental imprint in the hearts of generation after generation of beings of the endless starry sky, with no being willing to give rise to opposing thoughts, not even forming ideas, let alone actual actions, all things in the endless starry sky continuing to operate as usual.
Truly, there is a lack of variables.
"Suddenly severing the Tai Shang Da Ri Primordial Ancient Canon will cause severe impact to the celestial dynasty."
"It is time to develop a plan for slow transition, to delay as much as possible the brilliance of the Tai Shang Da Ri celestial dynasty, allowing the celestial dynasty's super-engineering projects to continue operating, maintaining low efficiency in celestial dynasty communications, ensuring production efficiency does not drop too much all at once, so that these fellow Daoists may, as much as possible, live out their lives well — — "
In the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu, the ancient emperor murmured.
He had already been considering such a matter, something never thought of in his first and second lives, yet today it naturally arose in his heart.
Third life.
Already the third life.
This is his final life in the mortal realm, with no fourth life to come.
Something no past forbidden-zone ancient emperor had ever achieved, he also finds difficult to achieve, for in talent and ability he has not made a cliff-like leap beyond those forbidden-zone ancient emperors, he and those forbidden-zone ancient emperors are of the same kind.
"This sovereign will remain in the world for another twenty million years."
Jiang Ding gazed upon the endless starry sky.
He had spent two lives, sixty million years, accumulating profound depth on the Extinction Law Dao, the celestial dynasty's various celestial-industry, celestial-agriculture, celestial-education industries and other celestial-path technologies flourishing like stars, shining brilliantly, it can be said he already fully possesses all the people and conditions necessary to step out of the Eight-Character Immortal Scripture.
As long as the universe's environment reaches the point permitting the practice of the Eight-Character Immortal Scripture, achievement in an instant is merely natural.
Jiang Ding took a step forward, arriving at the mother star of the Tai Yang Xi.
"Sword Lord!"
Another generation of celestial-sect administrators and many celestial-sect quasi-Emperors came to pay respects.
This is another batch of entirely new faces, completely different from those seen last time, such a situation the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang has experienced too much, to the point of having no emotional fluctuation whatsoever.
"Everyone,"
"Has the Kirin Super Celestial Vessel been completed?"
Jiang Ding looked toward the black-hole-like celestial warship situated in the Tai Yang Xi, and asked softly.
In the distance, not far from the sun, a terrifying warship of utter blackness floated in the void, emitting terrifying gravity from its entire body, as if it could swallow the ancient emperor whole, yet this did not affect the sun in the slightest, displaying ultimate mastery of gravity, exquisite to the peak.
At the same time, this super celestial vessel has been forged with an unknown amount of celestial-grade and ninth-grade Extinction Law celestial metal, its entire body emitting a terrifying aura of Extinction Law and soul-extinction, naturally attuned to Extinction Law, attuned to the soulless universe, likely only celestial-sect citizens born with genes adapted to the soulless universe can approach and control it.
This is a typical super celestial vessel of a race and civilization!
"Yes,"
"Sword Lord, the Kirin Super Celestial Vessel has been successfully built, the celestial sect's foundation has been greatly solidified."
The celestial sect administrator said respectfully.
At the same time, he also felt some sorrow, some anxiety, for he knew this is the ancient emperor's final life, after this life, the celestial sect will lose its eternal, unshakable foundation of brilliance, and will inevitably fall into internal and external war, and will inevitably, like the celestial sect's predecessors, once again enter war after a long period of peace.
In the future, the killing, death, and civilizational collapse of celestial sect citizens will be unavoidable.
For all this prosperity is founded upon the body of an invincible forbidden-zone ancient emperor of the endless starry sky, and when the forbidden-zone ancient emperor departs, all this will also change.
Fortunately, this will only happen long after his own death.
This current celestial sect administrator silently thought in his heart.
"This is good."
"This is good — — "
Jiang Ding let out a low sigh.
He communicated with the Central Array Spirit Computer, once again listening to her emotionless mechanical voice, hearing her broadcast his identity number beginning with 5227, which is utterly different from those of all citizens of the present age, hearing her inquire about his application, hearing her once again self-check, confirming she holds all permissions for the Kirin Celestial Vessel.
The Central Array Spirit Computer has no life.
As long as generation after generation of citizens maintain her parts and update her programs, she will certainly exist, never changing as long as citizens can continue to maintain her.
