Chapter 2551: Citizens of Hundreds of Billions of Years Ago and Citizens of Today

Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu.

Many Great Sun Sword Immortal Maidens, Fusang Attendant True Immortals, Immortal Gate administrators, and several participating councilors were present, with a large group of Emperor Realm cultivators around them holding their breath and focusing silently, waiting quietly.

Those appearing here are undoubtedly cultivators who are extremely reliable politically.

"Spiritual sense data transmission is not very stable————"

"No, this is not spiritual sense; it is clearly the stirring of causality upon the Dao, emitting regular vibrations, then translated into something resembling spiritual sense messages, with great delay—how could the ancient emperor's spiritual sense from the forbidden zone possibly appear in the mortal realm————"

"Unthinkable————"

Many True Immortal Maidens were fiddling with an extremely complex immortal artifact, occasionally whispering discussions, and sometimes Emperor Realm cultivators joined in, but only calculating and describing specific details.

After an unknown period of time, following multiple tests, this immortal artifact finally stabilized.

This is a vast immortal artifact stretching across star domains, with artifact sub-units in each world, connected by stellar orbits, jointly forged by the peak heavenly materials and earthly treasures of this era and a team of artifact refiners, using materials extravagantly to the extreme, sparing no cost.

Hum!

The many True Immortal Maidens jointly confirmed, heaven and earth began to supply power.

The Dyson Super Energy Plan, which had long been rebuilt across most star domains of the boundless starry sky, serving as the lifeblood of the Immortal Dao Industrial Civilization, at this moment had its secondary Immortal Dao Industrial Zones cut off power as planned, diverting all energy toward this immense causality immortal artifact.

Everyone in the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu held their breath, feeling somewhat apprehensive, waiting.

After an unknown period of time.

Boom—

Boom boom boom————

Above the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu, no! Above the entire Ziwei Ancient Continent appeared terrifying thunder and lightning, black fissures like abyssal prisons, faintly flashing with blood light, unknown low murmurs, so that even space became distorted in such terrifying murmurs, as if about to give birth to terrifying monsters.

In all places of heaven and earth, even if sealed by great formations, with all living beings evacuated beforehand, at this moment under the blood light's illumination, they immediately underwent mutation.

Plants shot up from the ground, transformed into human forms, drooling saliva, howling as they lunged in all directions, gnawing at space;

Earth's spirit veins underwent mutation, becoming an innate living being emitting twisted madness, carrying intense resentment, lunging toward the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu;

Mountain peaks became even more rotten, pus flowing, standing upright————

All kinds of terrifying sights caused many True Immortal Maidens to change expression, for they saw the horror of these mutated beings, possessing extreme danger and contagion, as if spreading a virus of "rule mutation," any living being parasitized by this virus would lose stable structure in both body and soul.

This is a terrifying entity born from cosmic chaos and rule disorder!

There are beings not permitted by heaven and earth, now reviving, affecting the operation of the present world, a tumor of heaven and earth, harboring great terror.

"————Ah,"

In the darkness, a low sigh came.

Amidst endless lightning and thunder, in the depths of expanding and tearing space, a terrifying existence seemed to have abandoned something, allowing the terrifying scenes in heaven and earth to gradually fade away.

After all anomalies disappeared, at the center of that special immortal artifact appeared a hazy figure of a blue-clad youth.

Clearly this is merely a figure composed of a few simple lines, containing no rules or power, very ordinary, yet heaven and earth does not allow this specially given appearance to appear in the mortal realm, even after repeatedly weakening its power, the remaining power is now extremely weak, even in absolute terms not as much as a single Qi Refining cultivator.

This being's appearance is not permitted to appear in today's mortal realm.

At the moment this hazy figure appeared, the starry sky seemed to fall silent, all beings in the Tai Shang Da Ri Tian Shu suddenly rose, not a single cultivator remained seated.

Even the many usually arrogant Sword Dao True Immortal Maidens, at this moment could not help but rise.

"Pay respects!"

"Pay respects, Sword Lord!"

All Great Sun Sword cultivators, all Sword Immortal Maidens, all Fusang attendants solemnly said.

Sword Lord.

This title holds special meaning within the Tai Shang Da Ri Dao lineage, as the title for the strongest sword cultivator under heaven, without many prefixes, just simply two words, formed by the invincible victory of the mortal realm.

Compared to the solemnity of these people, the Immortal Gate side relaxed far too much.

"Hahaha!"

"Great Sun Councilor, I have seen you in historical records————"

An Immortal Gate councilor greeted.

"Ding,"

"Hello."

A councilor addressing in this way is a historical custom, a convention, because the Tai Shang Da Ri Ancient Emperor was once a councilor of the Immortal Gate, and councilors were addressed this way.

"Councilor Your Excellency————"

An Immortal Gate Emperor Realm cultivator said.

Many Immortal Gate cultivators were very relaxed, each greeting in their own way, not uniform, chattering, with no particular order of precedence.

Many who first witnessed such sword cultivators and Void Maiden Dao practitioners were somewhat shocked and frightened.

Facing a forbidden zone ancient emperor like this, no matter how, it is truly too shocking, this is not the respect the Immortal Dao should have.

Yet, no expected anger came.

"Hello."

"Hello."

"Hello, hello, hello————Right, Po, you too, your dao name is quite special, very military-oriented, unlike our generation, our councilors were more like civil officials and political leaders, occasionally going on campaign, names often neutral, such as Yuan, Cong, Lu, etc."

"It seems your era's warfare is very frequent, almost like martial affairs."

That hazy figure transmitted a voice, fragmented, sometimes with years between words, delay extremely long, unknown from how much spatial and temporal obstruction it came, consuming how much power.

If not for most present being Emperor Realm cultivators, fearfully listening to his words would require consuming an entire lifetime, even multiple generations.

Unexpectedly, this voice is not majestic.

Like that of an ordinary high school student, like on a sunny afternoon, meeting a few relatives at the village entrance, casually chatting.

This casualness and familiarity warmed the hearts of many Immortal Gate citizens present.

How many years have passed, even with an interval of hundreds of billions of years, such a long time sufficient for stars to be born and destroyed, yet a citizen from that distant era remains exactly the same as today's citizen, not a single change, sharing common historical memories and common emotions.

Citizens today are just like citizens from hundreds of billions of years ago, all going through similar elementary, middle, high school, and university experiences, with no barriers between them.
