Chapter 2542

Chess pieces fell one by one, seeds were planted one by one into the soil.

Immediately, the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang no longer probed the boundless starry sky, but slowly entered a deep slumber, maximally delaying the passage of lifespan, for no one knows when the current era's great emperor will be born, nor when the four-generation immortal elixir will mature; countless variables involving numerous forbidden-zone ancient emperors and the heavenly dao of the golden great age make precise calculation impossible.

Under these circumstances, more lifespan undoubtedly means greater strategic tolerance for error.

As long as the seeds are strong enough and vitality sufficient, they will naturally pierce through layer upon layer of soil, break through the ground, grow into towering trees, and stand firm amidst the starry sky.

In the blink of an eye, millions of years passed.

The variables in the starry sky kept accumulating, kept accumulating, until finally this moment arrived, awakening the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang from its slumber.

He once again turned his gaze toward the starry sky.

"The seeds, they have all sprouted and broken through the soil."

"To see the outstanding figures of the starry sky, lush branches and leaves, verdant and flourishing, brings great comfort to this sovereign's heart."

Jiang Ding Zi muttered to himself.

Nowadays, in the starry sky, most seeds have sprouted and grown; the starry sky has never lacked heavenly prodigies, only lacked opportunity—especially now, in this golden great age where heroes gather in abundance.

At this moment, the gaze of the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang fell upon the solar system.

The scene before his eyes stirred his cold, weathered sword-heart slightly, sending ripples through it, plunging him into faint recollections; only after a long while did he gradually recover.

On the mother planet, all traces of the Golden Crow Immortal Dynasty have been erased.

Instead, towering buildings stand in rows, and between mountains and rivers, immortal-path industrial planning zones are scattered like stars and chessboards, with sky tracks connecting every corner of the mother planet.

In the immortal-path cities, formations guard every corner; each building is part of a sub-formation, and many sub-formations combine into city-wide composite formations, encompassing protection, production, education, and more; and when these city composite formations are combined, they form the entire planet's Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang and Seventy-Two Earthly Sha Composite Immortal Formation.

This immortal formation connects with countless myriad worlds, forming a super immortal formation that governs the starry sky!

Jiang Ding observed carefully, examining each city one by one, the students in elementary, middle, and high schools everywhere, watching them study formations and mathematics at school, study ideology and morality, practice, participate in military training, and observe the living conditions and mental states of citizens.

"Has the Collective Will True Immortal Child been born?"

"The dividends of the golden great age have finally been reaped by the immortal sect."

Jiang Ding revealed a faint smile.

Nowadays, in the starry sky, heavenly prodigies and outstanding figures emerge in succession; various Dao bodies, immortal bodies, divine bodies, and demon bodies appear endlessly; the immortal sect has also flourished, no longer relying on ancient emperor secret realms, steadily giving birth to Collective Will True Immortal Children.

During these millions of years, the immortal sect overthrew the Golden Crow Immortal Dynasty's rule in the solar system, then advanced into the Bei Dou Xing Yu, and now has become a hegemon of one side of the starry sky, commanding thousands of star domains.

However, it is regrettable that the immortal sect has not fully occupied the Bei Dou ancient realm.

This place possesses far too many powerful legacies!

The Bei Dou ancient emperor's lineage emerged here, the undying ancient emperor's lineage emerged here, the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang's lineage emerged here—this tiny Bei Dou ancient realm actually gave birth to three great forbidden-zone ancient emperor lineages simultaneously, clashing in rivalry, not to mention the numerous ancient emperor legacies occupying various places.

The immortal sect cannot, as in past eras, emerge and sweep all directions, either reaching the pinnacle or being destroyed; in the very beginning of its expansion wars, it met resistance, forcing it to temporarily avoid other regions of the Bei Dou ancient realm and instead expand toward the periphery.

Over these millions of years, the three great forbidden-zone-level powers of the Bei Dou ancient realm have undergone multiple clashes of slaughter, yet none have emerged victorious.

The immortal sect's extermination law fleets, the Bei Dou myriad heavens immortal soldiers, the undying phoenix-descendant immortal army—these three terrifying immortal soldiers press in all directions, continuously devouring thousands of star domains, each becoming a hegemon of one corner of the starry sky, and this expansion momentum continues, having swallowed countless unparalleled heavenly prodigies and their ethnic forces along the way, chilling to behold.

"Immortal soldier military formations—has the immortal sect become weaker than humanity?"

Jiang Ding furrowed his brow slightly.

He focused his gaze carefully, and only then did his expression ease somewhat.

Such a thing has not occurred.

The immortal sect's great army on the battlefield is overwhelming the enemy's immortal soldiers, but the individual strength of the Undying Phoenix Maiden and the Bei Dou Holy Maiden is too great; they often single-handedly withstand immortal soldiers, causing the immortal sect's blade edge to falter.

"This is still acceptable."

"The immortal sect's individual strength is actually not weak—it is me."

Jiang Ding felt slightly comforted in his heart.

His gaze slightly shifted from the solar system; the Tai Shang Da Ri Gu Huang looked toward two directions in the boundless starry sky that are deeply causally connected to himself.

The Tian Jian Xing Yu, where Tai Shang Da Ri sword cultivators flourish immensely!

Here was born a new generation of Da Ri sword sons, named Blood Yang Dayan Dayan Jianzi; he successfully unearthed the submerged Great Day Heavenly Pool, and all the way rose, all the way slew dozens of true immortal child-level unparalleled heavenly prodigies, dominating tens of thousands of star domains—truly awe-inspiring might, making myriad races tremble in fear.

This generation of Blood Yang Dayan Dayan Jianzi greatly enjoys bloodshed.

He was relatively fortunate, having not encountered forbidden-zone immortal-path traditions in the early stages of expansion, thus his domain surpasses that of the immortal sect by far, once again making the starry sky aware of the name of Da Ri sword cultivators.

However, in the golden great age, even forbidden-zone immortal-path traditions cannot stand out alone.

At this moment, Blood Yang Dayan Dayan Jianzi is likewise embroiled in war, and his opponent is precisely the Nine Leaf Dayan Dayan Jianzi of the Tian Cong Xing Yu!

This is no coincidence.

Blood Yang Dayan Dayan Jianzi has been seeking the Nine Leaf Sword Emperor's immortal-path tradition, not just him—nearly all human sword emperor immortal-path traditions are searching for the Nine Leaf Sword Emperor's inheritors, frenziedly.

At this time, the number of human sword cultivators gathered around Blood Yang Dayan Dayan Jianzi is terrifyingly immense.

Alone, there are thirty-four true immortal child-level unparalleled sword-path heavenly prodigies, at least twenty of whom are inheritors of human sword emperor immortal-path traditions, the rest being true immortal child sword-path cultivators born in this era—not to mention numerous secondary-tier human sword-path heavenly prodigies; they follow the tradition of human sword cultivators, gathering under the strongest human sword cultivator, and launch a frenzied assault toward the Nine Leaf Sword Emperor's inheritor.

"Oh?"

"The human forbidden-zone sword emperor of the golden great age—seems to be only me?"

"Or perhaps human forbidden-zone sword emperors have no beginning?"

Upon seeing this scene, Jiang Ding's spirit instantly lifted.

Human sword cultivators, a racial profession, a racial army!

Compared to human law-cultivators, this path has obvious militarized traits, strict order, tight upper-lower organization; many sword cultivators spontaneously gather under the strongest sword cultivator—this is the tradition of sword cultivators.

The sole human forbidden-zone sword emperor—this identity carries immense political advantage!

"Regardless of whether I am the sole forbidden-zone sword emperor,"

"I must be!"

Jiang Ding revealed a trace of excited, fervent flame: "If another human forbidden-zone sword emperor is born, I will go and kill him first—human sword cultivators can only exert their maximum strength under my command!"

"Even if other human forbidden-zone sword emperors exist, what use would they have for so many sword-path oxen and horses?"

Will he use it?

Not at all!
