Chapter 678: Supreme Taiyi Immortal Court Earth Emperor God, Earth Emperor Elder of the Human Race (4K)

The boundless earth, the Nine Abysses, the power of the Earth Emperor Dao Venerable's status—transformed from the Great Dao of Earth—drew in the Great Dao laws of earth, Nine Abysses, and earthly movement.

Moreover, surging primordial chaos qi and the power of imbalance in the boundless Heaven and Earth Great Dao laws flowed into the forming multi-ancestral qi wheel, attempting to tear it apart.

Yet around those layers of ancestral qi wheels, boundless Great Dao law runes shimmered, constantly linking, making the originally flawless purple-yellow dragon-shaped Great Dao runes even more resilient, gradually taking on a layer of power transcending time and space, fate, immortality and indestructibility, directly reaching the other shore.

The purple-yellow dragon-shaped Great Dao divine pattern gradually closed into a new ring, transcending the original pure essence condensed from earth, Nine Abysses, and earthly movement Great Dao laws.

It truly transformed into a status of the Other Shore Dao Venerable.

Boom—

Gradually, boundless purple light was born from the depths of the primordial chaos ocean, with boundless earthly movement, Nine Abysses, and earth Dao qi newly born within, and even many unfamiliar Great Dao were born, evolving into the supreme divine mystery of the source of all laws.

Countless earthly movement, Nine Abysses, earth attribute Dao qi, and even ancestral qi sensed that magnificent Dao Venerable status power, involuntarily heeding the mobilization of that grand purple-yellow divine light power.

Zhang Jian felt that with a single thought, he could form layer upon layer of magnificent surging divine energy flying from the depths of the primordial chaos ocean, overwhelming boundless Heaven and Earth Great Dao laws.

Under such mighty power, even the Dao Fruit condensed by a Dao Lord realm expert would become insignificant!

At this moment, Zhang Jian could truly feel what supreme will is.

The third-turn Dao Lords call it great divine ability, supreme power.

But Dao Venerables are even more elusive and unpredictable.

This is a terrifying divine power that crosses the bitter sea and reaches the other shore.

Upon entering the realm of great divine ability, one can already touch such mighty power—for him, this is what fortune.

A heavenly realm master brings him benefits too great.

Zhang Jian felt the already-formed universal Dao Venerable status at the center of his brow, his eyes slightly revealing a hint of a smile.

This magnificent power penetrated his Earth Emperor Dao Lord body; the Dao rhythm emitted by the Earth Emperor auspicious clouds vaguely seemed to similarly transcend the shackles of Heaven and Earth Great Dao laws, completely breaking free from the barriers of Heaven and Earth Great Dao rules.

Successfully transforming the singular Dao Venerable status into the universal status of the primordial chaos ocean, Zhang Jian instantly felt the sky high enough for birds to fly, the sea wide enough for fish to leap, his form turning into a streak of light speeding toward the central heavenly court.

With greatly increased Dao cultivation, the speed of his escape light reached the utmost extreme.

The space-time storms filling the heavenly realm dimensions shattered upon contact beneath his escape light.

Upon his return, Zhang Jian once again passed through that celestial spirit dimension.

In the celestial spirit dimension, the great battle continued unresolved after twelve elemental cycles.

Zhang Jian could still see many heavenly court heavenly soldiers and divine generals commanding countless starry sky warships entwined with endless divine light, crossing boundless time and space to descend upon the celestial spirit dimension—it appeared the heavenly court had begun formally attacking this dimension, strengthening its influence in this realm.

Around the borders of the void celestial spirit dimension, Zhang Jian's divine eyes pierced through, able to see many newly opened time-space battlefields, within which streaks of killing qi shot into the heavens, the shouts of slaughter shaking heaven and earth.

On several battlefields, heavenly court divine soldiers and generals faced the allied forces of extraterritorial demon god legions and celestial spirit dimension native powerhouses, while also seeing divine soldiers and units individually slaughtering celestial spirit dimension powerhouses.

Above the void, streaks of starlight burst forth.

It appeared the Dipper constellations were participating.

Zhang Jian glanced and paid no heed.

After passing through a magnificent battlefield and transferring through several major realms, Zhang Jian finally entered the domain governed by the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm.

Gazing afar, boundless auspicious clouds and propitious qi emanated from the region where the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm resided, magnificent and grand.

Zhang Jian's eyes swept over; at that moment, he cast a seal from afar, which then turned into flowing light merging into that layer of invisible auspicious cloud light, instantly blending in, his form also turning into a stream of light sinking into the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm.

Similar to him, such great divine ability beings are no longer like ordinary immortals and gods.

If entering part of another great divine ability being's dojo or territory, one must arrange prior notification, otherwise unnecessary trouble easily arises.

But he himself is a member of the Three Sovereigns Five Elders Council; this return is merely for identity verification.

This return to the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm, Zhang Jian prepared to also take up that thirteenth sequence vacant post.

The thirteenth sequence is a divine position above the three heavenly sequences, within the supreme three sequences.

Even if it is a nominal seal with no actual authority, it is still a considerable fortune of vital energy.

Zhang Jian naturally would not give it up.

Besides this, there are the conditions agreed upon between the Celestial Court Heavenly Realm and the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm: after the twelfth elemental cycle, part of the permissions will be opened, allowing Dao Lord-level cultivators from the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm to enter.

The Three Sovereigns Holy Realm has already drafted a list of names; Zhang Jian prepared to personally meet these powerhouses and personally evaluate them.

Upon arriving at the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm, Zhang Jian first visited the three ancestral gods, then met the three Holy Emperors and five Holy Sovereigns.

The three Holy Emperors and five Holy Sovereigns nominally are the rulers of the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm.

The Three Sovereigns Five Elders take turns governing the Three Sovereigns Five Elders Council, that is, the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm.

Most of these eight supremes have served as emperors of the Central Heavenly Court, their Dao cultivation extraordinary; even Zhang Jian must treat them with caution.

Now, the rotation of the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm falls to the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi among the three Holy Emperors.

Zhang Jian's key visit was to this rotating Holy Emperor.

Everything proceeded smoothly; soon afterward, he received the Supreme Taiyi Immortal Court Earth Emperor God's edict, also formally listing him among the supreme three sequences of the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm.

Although it is a nominal seal with no corresponding divine authority, as an emperor in the supreme three sequences, he possesses all that he should.

Henceforth, he may justifiably participate in the supreme assemblies held by the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm, attend various decision-level meetings, vote, and even offer suggestions.

As for other benefits, they are even more numerous.

Zhang Jian does not value these; merely becoming a core elder of the Three Sovereigns Five Elders Council, he ought to have these authorities.

……

In the Three Sovereigns Holy Realm, after the holy court adjourned, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi alone issued an edict, summoning Zhang Jian.

Within the magnificent Hall of Holy Virtue, ten-direction bright clouds and light spread, boundless divine light circulated, a magnificent sovereign sat enthroned upon the cloud couch, though the holy Dao light flowing around him was magnificent, it was not primarily imperial Dao, but rather filled with a layer of level gaze upon heaven and earth, compassion for all beings divine energy.

Though he did not actively display an immeasurable divine power, Zhang Jian still felt a boundless terrifying might through peeking at the leopard through the tube.

After Zhang Jian made a slight salute, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi directed his gaze toward him.

"Earth Emperor, I still remember your appearance when you first entered the Fire Cloud Cave Heaven; I never imagined that in less than ten elemental cycles, your Dao cultivation would reach this level—your growth speed exceeds even my imagination!"

Zhang Jian said upon hearing this.

"Fortunate to have the protection of the Three Sovereigns Five Elders Council's Majesties; otherwise, this junior would still have many detours to take!"

His cultivation had reached such a level that many transformations were now clear to him.

Including how he originally named himself the Earth Emperor, his innate primordial qi, achieving the innate divine sacred body—such an omen shook heaven and earth.

After all, upon first entering the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm, he condensed the Earth Emperor's Dharma Aspect; such performance was indeed conspicuous, but later, unexpectedly, someone interfered with the heavenly secrets, causing him to avoid many dangers.

Zhang Jian originally thought it was mere coincidence, but now he faintly sensed something.

Moreover, later the heretical Yuanyuan Daoist Monarch used despicable means, attempting to threaten him with the Zhou Mountain Realm; the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm intervened, resolving his rear concerns, even pursuing and killing the Yuanyuan Daoist Monarch.

Such care is something the Heavenly Court does not possess.

This is also the main reason Zhang Jian is willing to affiliate the Immortal Court under the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm.

This unity and protection have always given Zhang Jian a faint sense of belonging in his heart.

This may also be due to the personal charisma of the Three Holy Emperors.

Otherwise, many powerful human cultivators would not tightly unite around the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly.

The Heavenly Emperor Fuxi smiled faintly.

"No need for such formality; you are the backbone of my human race, moreover of holy king lineage—how could the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm allow anyone to ruin the path of our human race's strong ones!"

After a slight pause, he directly stated the reason for summoning him alone.

"Earth Emperor, do you know the duty borne by each core elder of the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm?"

Zhang Jian nodded.

"Junior understands!"

Having received corresponding benefits and rights, naturally there are corresponding duties.

Especially core elders, as the decision-making power of the human race, each is a foundation.

The Heavenly Emperor Fuxi then said.

"Although the Top Three Rankings represent endless glory, they also bear immense responsibility, with the duty to protect all human races across the heavens!"

"After all, the human race's fortune cannot be taken for nothing..."

Speaking to the end, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi smiled faintly.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's expression became solemn; he knew that the actual power holder of Ranking Thirteen still had an important benefit not yet obtained.

That is the distribution of human destiny's fortune.

This is one of the most important rights of core elders in the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly.

Many powerful human cultivators within the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly willingly align with it, many coming precisely for this.

The stronger the human race, the more benefits they can obtain.

Human destiny, whether used for cultivation, condensing status, or increasing the great fortune of the Dao lineage, is of great help.

The stronger one's cultivation, the more one can sense the preciousness of great fortune.

Besides, Zhang Jian heard that core elders above Ranking Fourteen can even have the opportunity to contact the human race's supreme will.

Of course, the Heavenly Court is the same; supreme emperors above Ranking Thirteen, or even the Heavenly Emperor, can have the opportunity to participate in sharing the Heavenly Court's great fortune.

Supreme emperors above Ranking Fourteen can contact the profound mystery of the Heavenly Dao's will.

After this Heavenly Majesty Fuxi drew the grand pie, Zhang Jian realized he would likely face 'trouble' ahead!

Indeed, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi said.

"Earth Emperor, the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm now has a heavy task to entrust to you; do you have the confidence to accomplish it?"

After a slight pause, he smiled and said.

"Of course, as a core elder of the Three Sovereigns and Five Elders Assembly, a derivation cycle, you have several exemptions; this time you can also directly refuse!"

Zhang Jian glanced at this Heavenly Majesty, slightly pondering.

The situation of the Immortal Court Heavenly Realm has already stabilized; taking on a mission in the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm now is not impossible.

Although this Heavenly Majesty is drawing pies, he cannot resist the thirst-quenching effect of these pies.

Moreover, Zhang Jian also knows that as a human race elder, having come under human race protection, it is time to repay the human race's cause and effect.

If he does not establish some achievements, he may not be able to convince others.

It is also a good opportunity to travel and see the world.

At this moment, Zhang Jian's heart stirred again.

"Could this Majesty have even calculated this point..."

Zhang Jian's heart felt heavy, but after thinking, he decided first to clarify clearly, then make a decision.

He then said.

"Holy Emperor Majesty, may junior know the details of the mission?"

He then spoke in a candid tone.

"Junior has always cherished his life; if a task lacks certainty, he will not lightly accept it!"

Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi smiled faintly, without blame, and said.

"This task is not difficult; with your great divine powers, the chance of encountering accidents is small, but completing it depends on your own means!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's eyes moved.

Seeing Zhang Jian's expression, the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi continued.

"When you return to the Three Sovereigns Heavenly Realm this time, you should pass through the Tianling Wei? You must have seen the battle between the Heavenly Court and the Tianling Realm!"

Zhang Jian nodded and said.

"Several dozen elemental cycles ago, junior saw the Heavenly Court attacking the Tianling Wei, seemingly only now making some progress!"

The Heavenly Emperor Fuxi smiled faintly.

"The region where the Tianling Wei is located is exceptionally special, with many major powers stationed nearby, inevitably affecting the war situation!"

"The Tianling Realm within the Tianling Wei is far more complex than your Immortal Court Heavenly Realm's overall situation; inside, there is also a part of powerful and mighty demon god races existing; the ancestors of these powerful demon god races still have some abilities; their strong ones might be able to match you..."

Zhang Jian's expression remained unmoved as he listened to the Heavenly Emperor Fuxi continue speaking.

"However, their connection to your mission is currently not significant!"

"Your mission is to safeguard one of the human lineages within the Tianling Realm, fully bring forth a portion of its strong cultivators, or simply assist them in stabilizing the situation, supporting them until the Heavenly Court completely conquers that Tianling dimension!"

Zhang Jian's expression showed some surprise.

"I have heard that the Tianling Realm hosts many powerful races, not lacking numerous mighty tribes comparable to innate divine beings in origin, yet I never expected that among them there would also exist our human race?"

The Heavenly Emperor Fuxi nodded and said.

"The Tianling dimension also possesses a human lineage, and moreover, they are descendants of the ancient human race!

This human lineage has also received a portion of the celestial void's human Dao great fortune and spiritual essence, and their foundation is not weak, but that realm harbors those who seek to forcibly merge heaven and earth to achieve hegemony, thus they may face extermination, and we cannot stand idly by!

According to our original plan, we should have dispatched another elder to enter that realm to safeguard the human race through this tribulation, but that elder's cultivation has not been smooth, and recently encountered some mishaps; however, your arrival has brightened my eyes..."

After a slight pause, he smiled and said.

"Your cultivation and methods are not inferior to that elder's, possibly even superior; of course, you are still an innate divine embodiment, which may make entering the Tianling Realm even more convenient!"

After a slight pause, Fuxi smiled again and said.

"Later, I will transfer all information about the Tianling Realm to you; after careful consideration, you may then give me your reply!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian immediately nodded.

Fuxi then added.

"If you can accomplish this task, I can decide to grant you the actual authority befitting an elder!"

Zhang Jian's eyes brightened; Fuxi's promise was truly no small pie in the sky.

It seems that the ancient human lineage in the Tianling Realm likely harbors further secrets, otherwise the Three Emperors' Heavenly Realm would not expend such effort!

After obtaining some information about the Tianling Realm in the Three Emperors' Heavenly Realm, Zhang Jian did not directly reply to Fuxi, but first returned to the Central Heavenly Realm to pay respects to his ancestors!
