Chapter 637: The Birth of a Human Race Deity in the Immortal World, a Dao Companion Becomes an Immortal King

"So that's how it is."

Bai Jingyao nodded. From the mouths of these junior brothers of the Qiantian Sect, he had also learned about the many Immortal World plants that had recently appeared among the Human Race, each one profound and infinite in its mysteries.

For instance, the Enlightenment Tree can nurture Enlightenment Immortal Tea, helping immortals enter a state of sudden enlightenment; even Immortal Kings covet it, though unfortunately, Enlightenment Immortal Tea is scarce and not easily obtained.

Then there is the Innate Water Flat Peach Tree, which is also one of the Spirit Roots of heaven and earth. It is said that within the Xuanhuang Sect, there are many Flat Peach orchards planted with a large number of Flat Peach Trees.

Each Flat Peach contains vast energy. Consuming one not only extends life and improves cultivation but also carries no side effects, which is why it has become the favorite of countless immortals.

Regrettably, the yield of Flat Peaches is not particularly high; apart from a few immortals, most have no such fortune to enjoy them.

The Bodhi Tree can nurture Bodhi Fruit. Consuming it increases an immortal's comprehension and helps them perceive the Causality Law; it can be called infinitely profound.

The Immortal Tree Huangzhong Li is said to be an immortal tree from the prehistoric era. The Huangzhong Immortal Fruit it nurtures is coveted even by Great Luo Golden Immortals. Consuming one can save countless years of bitter cultivation, though unfortunately, the quantity is extremely scarce.

In short, ever since the appearance of the Xuanhuang Sect, all kinds of Spirit Roots of heaven and earth have suddenly emerged.

This has also opened the eyes of countless immortals.

After all, even if these immortal fruits and immortal medicines are scarce, if one puts in the effort, there is still a chance to obtain them.

It is not like before, where no matter how hard one tried, it was impossible to obtain them.

Because most of these immortal fruits and immortal medicines had gone extinct or were on the verge of extinction.

"It seems I need to go find Senior Brother Tingyu."

Bai Jingyao clenched his fists, feeling his heart race.

He had not expected that so many precious opportunities would suddenly appear for the Human Race. If he could obtain some, the probability of him ascending to Immortal King in the future would increase by at least fifty percent.

However, how to obtain these opportunities was not something his junior brothers would know.

And Tingyu Daoren was also an immortal at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Perfection stage in the Qiantian Sect, with cultivation not much different from his own.

At the same time, he was also the City Lord of Tianfu City.

If he could obtain the help of Tingyu Daoren, then the probability of him obtaining these precious opportunities would likely be much greater.

…………

Several hours later.

Bai Jingyao had already contacted Tingyu Daoren and arrived directly at the City Lord Mansion in Tianfu City.

After all, he was a Great Luo Golden Immortal; with such strength, no matter where he went, he would be respected by the world.

"Junior Brother Bai, you have finally returned."

"I was actually worried that you would die in the Eternal Night Land."

"Now it seems that a lucky person has their own heaven-sent protection."

"And your cultivation has also improved significantly; I estimate your harvest this time is not shallow."

Tingyu Daoren laughed heartily, feeling very pleased to see his junior brother Bai Jingyao.

"Senior Brother Tingyu, why does the aura on your body feel almost the same as an Immortal King?"

"Could it be that you have already ascended to Immortal King?"

Bai Jingyao's expression changed. He sensed that the aura on Tingyu Daoren was completely different from before, perfectly integrated, and permeated with a terrifying Immortal King Domain.

It felt as if the other party could crush him to death in an instant with a single thought, as if he were an ant.

Yet, the other party's cultivation was not much different from his own; both should be Great Luo Golden Immortals.

But why did his senior brother feel so terrifying to him? It was simply beyond imagination.

"No, no, no, I am still at the Great Luo Golden Immortal stage and have not ascended to Immortal King."

"The reason I give you this feeling is purely because I have refined the Divine Seal."

Tingyu Daoren smiled slightly.

He also knew why his junior brother was so shocked; after all, the gap between a Great Luo Golden Immortal and an Immortal King was simply too vast—they were practically existences from different dimensions.

Out of over a billion Great Luo Golden Immortals, those who can truly ascend to Immortal King are only a thousand or so.

From this, one can see just how difficult it is to break through the Immortal King bottleneck.

Once one becomes an Immortal King, it is a leap to the heavens.

Even though the Qiantian Sect has numerous Great Luo Golden Immortals, those who can become Immortal Kings are still few and far between.

"What is a Divine Seal?"

Bai Jingyao looked puzzled. He felt that he was no longer familiar with the current Human Race at all; it seemed that the cultivation system and power system had undergone earth-shaking changes.

However, judging by his senior brother's words, it seemed to be a very good thing for the Human Race.

"The so-called Divine Seal is a special Dharma Treasure refined by the Immortal Kings of the Xuanhuang Sect."

"It is said that this technology comes from a certain Prehistoric Civilization."

"The Divine Seal can gather the Luck of the entire Human Race."

"Once you refine the Divine Seal, you can become a deity of a region and master the power of Luck in that place."

"Originally, I was also just an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal."

"But after refining the Divine Seal here in Tianfu City, I mastered the power of Luck of this city."

"Under the blessing of this vast power of Luck, my combat power soared, allowing me to reach the level of an Ordinary Immortal King."

"However, this blessed power is limited to the vicinity of Tianfu City."

"Once I leave Tianfu City, I am just an ordinary Great Luo Golden Immortal again."

Tingyu Daoren explained.

"There is actually such a peculiar Dharma Treasure in the world?"

"Even if it is limited to one place, that is already quite extraordinary."

Bai Jingyao realized the power of this Divine Seal Dharma Treasure; it was absolutely extraordinary.

If a City Lord refined the Divine Seal, then they would be equivalent to a deity of this place.

Even if an external enemy invades, it will be detected at the first moment and then instantly executed.

This also means that the safety of the frontier cities has been greatly improved.

After all, with an Immortal King guarding a frontier city, one must ask, what other enemy could breach this massive city?

One must know that among the Human Race, the number of Immortal Kings is extremely limited, amounting to only a thousand or so.

With such a scarce number of Immortal Kings, it is impossible to guard every single city.

But now, after the appearance of the Divine Seal, it means that even a Great Luo Golden Immortal can possess the combat power of an Immortal King.

Even if it is only the combat power of an Ordinary Immortal King, that is still quite extraordinary.

This also means that in the future, the cities of the Human Race will likely be as stable as Mount Tai.

There will be no need to worry about encountering an Alien invasion at all.

Even if one truly encounters an Alien invasion, it is estimated that with a mere wave of the hand, one could suppress the enemy and make them vanish into thin air.

"It is indeed extraordinary."

"Previously, an Alien Great Luo Golden Immortal once snuck into Tianfu City, attempting to destroy important areas of Tianfu City."

"But I held the Divine Seal and displayed the combat power of an Immortal King."

"With a mere wave of my hand, I annihilated that Alien Great Luo."

"To tell you the truth, I never even imagined that I would one day be this powerful, truly as if I had ascended to become an Immortal King."

Tingyu Daoren said triumphantly.

If not for the power of the Divine Seal, it would have been almost impossible for him to kill a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

But since he possesses the combat power of an Immortal King, killing a Great Luo is as simple as eating and drinking.

"Senior Brother Tingyu, the power of the Divine Seal is likely not limited to just this, is it?"

"According to my understanding, Senior Brother Tingyu is not the type of person who likes to be confined to one place."

"Yet, even choosing to be trapped in Tianfu City, Senior Brother Tingyu still insists on refining the Divine Seal to become the City Lord of Tianfu City."

"Could it be that this Divine Seal also has immense benefits for the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal?"

Bai Jingyao keenly sensed this point.

He felt that if the power of the Divine Seal merely strengthened the City Lord's power, it would definitely not make Tingyu Daoren so eager to pursue it, because Tingyu Daoren never acts without profit and is someone who cannot sit still.

Yet he has served as the City Lord of Tianfu City for such a long time, occupying this position all along.

From this, it can be seen that the power of the Divine Seal is absolutely extraordinary.

"Haha, Junior Brother Bai is indeed clever to have realized the uniqueness of the Divine Seal."

"You guessed correctly; the Divine Seal strengthening the City Lord's power is merely one of its insignificant abilities."

"In fact, its truly powerful ability lies in its capacity to assist an immortal in their cultivation."

"If you refine the Divine Seal, it is equivalent to gaining the Luck of a region upon yourself."

"In this way, you become the deity of this place and can manipulate all the power within this territory."

"At that time, your cultivation speed will increase several-fold, and it will also enhance your comprehension."

"Moreover, the more prosperous this place is, the more Luck you enjoy, and the greater the benefits you receive."

"Therefore, becoming a City Lord will not delay your cultivation; on the contrary, it will increase your cultivation speed."

Tingyu Daoren smiled slightly; he did not hide the benefits the Divine Seal brings to a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

For ordinary immortals, this might be a secret.

But for Great Luo Golden Immortals, this is basically common knowledge.

Even if he did not tell Bai Jingyao, if Bai Jingyao returned to the Profound Heaven Sect, he would learn this information anyway.

So he might as well take the initiative to inform him.

More importantly, his relationship with Bai Jingyao is indeed good, so he naturally does not worry that the other party will affect his own interests.

"After refining the Divine Seal, it not only improves cultivation efficiency but also increases comprehension?"

"This is simply a top-tier Immortal Artifact for assisting cultivation."

Bai Jingyao widened his eyes, feeling very shocked.

Even though he had some expectations before, hearing about the power of the Divine Seal still made him feel incomparably astonished.

If the Divine Seal has such capabilities, I fear every Great Luo Golden Immortal would go crazy.

"It seems you have also realized the might of the Divine Seal."

"Its attraction to Great Luo Golden Immortals can be imagined."

"After reaching the Golden Immortal Realm, our cultivation speed is like that of a snail."

"Even if one cultivates bitterly for tens of billions of years, one's cultivation base cannot advance much."

"But after refining the Divine Seal, one can increase our cultivation efficiency by ten or a hundred times."

"So you can imagine how much madness will be stirred up among Great Luo Golden Immortals once news of the Divine Seal spreads."

"Some old antiques who were hiding and cultivating in seclusion have actually started to take the initiative to join the Heavenly Court, hoping to serve as City Lords and refine the Divine Seal; they are simply shameless."

"However, there are so many Great Luo Golden Immortals in the Human Race, yet those who can truly refine the Divine Seal and become City Lords are still very few."

"Therefore, the position of City Lord for every city has now become something coveted by Great Luo Golden Immortals; many Great Luo Golden Immortals almost came to blows in order to become Heavenly Court officials."

Tingyu Daoren said with great emotion.

Previously, some Great Luo Golden Immortals with an immortal air and refined demeanor appeared not to value fame and fortune; even when faced with the summons of the Heavenly Court, they would disdain it, choosing to cultivate in seclusion and avoid the world.

But ever since they learned of the Divine Seal's function, they have one by one chosen to come out of seclusion, wanting to become Heavenly Court officials and refine the Divine Seal, each one more shameless than the last.

Fortunately, he is an Elder of the Profound Heaven Sect and has also fought in Tianfu City for a long time, earning quite a bit of merit.

Otherwise, how would the position of City Lord of Tianfu City ever have fallen to him?

"In that case, wouldn't refining the Divine Seal be of great help to Senior Brother's cultivation?"

Bai Jingyao could not help but feel his heart stir.

If the Divine Seal had such a tremendous effect on the cultivation of a Great Luo Golden Immortal, then he would have to compete for one, no matter what.

After all, the path of cultivation is one that requires competition.

As the saying goes, people fight for a breath of air, just as Buddhas fight for a stick of incense.

If he did not compete, he would never be able to become an Immortal King in this lifetime.

Sooner or later, he would fall under the weight of calamity, resulting in the death of his body and the dissipation of his Dao.

"Of course it helps a great deal; it is almost as if I have received the protection of the Heavenly Dao."

"To be honest, I never imagined that under the blessing of the Divine Seal, my comprehension would improve to such a degree."

"Without a doubt, if I continue to cultivate like this, the probability of me advancing to an Immortal King will increase by at least fifty percent."

Tingyu Daoren clenched his fists and said, full of confidence.

Originally, he felt that there was not much hope for him to advance to an Immortal King in this lifetime.

But ever since the Divine Seal appeared, it had turned his fate around.

He felt that it was no longer impossible for him to become an Immortal King.

"How many Divine Positions are there left now?"

Bai Jingyao asked straightforwardly; he also wanted to refine a Divine Seal.

"You have returned far too late."

"The number of Divine Positions is limited; there is only one radish for every hole."

"Basically, the Divine Positions are all occupied by various Great Luo Golden Immortals."

"Unless these Great Luo Golden Immortals fall, or commit a grave error, it is impossible to seize their Divine Positions."

Tingyu Daoren shook his head.

In fact, every Great Luo Golden Immortal cherishes their Divine Position immensely, so how could they possibly commit an error so easily?

Waiting for the other party to commit an error would take an eternity.

"Is there really no other way? Can the number of Divine Positions not be increased?"

Bai Jingyao frowned; he was still unwilling to give up.

"Hmm, it is not that there is no way."

"Actually, the number of Divine Positions has a great deal to do with territory."

"If our Human Race's territory expands, then the number of Divine Positions will also increase."

"It is precisely because of this that, over these years, many Great Luo Golden Immortals have been so active in constantly expanding the Human Territory."

"At present, there is only one way to expand the Human Territory, and that is to go deep into the Eternal Night Land."

"Of course, there are also some Great Luo Golden Immortals who attempt to plot against the territories of other super races."

"If they can succeed, then the number of Divine Positions will certainly increase significantly."

Tingyu Daoren explained.

"No wonder so many immortals are so active in expanding the Human Territory."

"It is all because there is profit to be made."

"However, for the Human Race, it can also be considered a great help."

Bai Jingyao's eyes flickered.

To be honest, he wished he could make the current Human Territory expand by double.

If that were the case, he would be able to obtain a Divine Position.

Rumble~~~

Just at this moment, a massive tremor came from Tianfu City, as if a giant dragon were turning over, and the Immortal Veins trembled incessantly.

Of course, it was not just Tianfu City.

Basically, all 1.296 billion provinces of the Human Race produced violent tremors.

Every single Immortal Vein was shaking.

Vaguely, it seemed as if countless Immortal Vein dragons were roaring.

Boundless Immortal Qi gathered in the Central Immortal Domain, forming a massive celestial phenomenon.

"What is going on?"

Bai Jingyao was startled, not knowing what had happened.

He had lived for such a long time, yet this was the first time he had encountered such a celestial phenomenon; it was truly quite unusual.

At this moment, he could not help but look at Tingyu Daoren, feeling that the other party might know something.

"The celestial phenomenon comes from the Central Immortal Domain."

"I estimate that some Immortal King is about to break through, which is why such a tremor was caused."

Tingyu Daoren's eyes flickered; he had also obtained this intelligence from his chat group.

In fact, ever since the Dream World began to appear among the Human Race, chat groups had also begun to flourish.

Many Great Luo Golden Immortals had also begun to band together, creating various chat groups.

They shared the intelligence they knew with each other.

In ordinary times, they would also brag and chat, which could be considered quite pleasant.

"Some Immortal King breaking through? It is not as if I have never seen an Immortal King break through before."

"But the phenomenon caused would only shroud the Central Immortal Domain."

"How could it be like this now, actually shrouding the entire Human Territory? It is simply too exaggerated."

Bai Jingyao did not know what to say; which Immortal King could possibly be breaking through to cause a phenomenon of this magnitude? Even a powerhouse at the level of an Immortal King Taiyi would likely be no more than this.

"I'm not sure, but for our Human Race, it is ultimately a good thing."

"After all, the stronger the Human Race's Immortal Kings are, the better."

"Immortal Kings are our Human Race's true supreme combat power; they are the barrier that protects our Human Race."

Tingyu Daoren naturally also wanted to know exactly which Immortal King had broken through, to be so fierce.

But thinking about it carefully, this was also intelligence at the Immortal King level.

He was merely a lowly Great Luo Golden Immortal; how could he have the qualifications to investigate such intelligence?

Sometimes, it is not the case that the more you know, the better.

"That is also true."

Bai Jingyao also nodded, agreeing with this point very much.

He felt that his gains from returning to the Human Race this time were truly too great.

Even without needing to go deep into the Eternal Night Land, just being within the Human Territory was enough to allow him to benefit greatly.

Perhaps by obtaining some of these opportunities, he could break through and become an Immortal King.

…………

Human Race, Central Immortal Domain, Xuanhuang Sect.

At this very moment, the headquarters of the Xuanhuang Sect had already relocated to the Central Immortal Domain.

Originally, this place was the Daochang of a certain Ancient King.

But ever since the other party fell, this place had been left vacant, and then the Xuanhuang Sect naturally occupied this region.

Xuanhuang Palace.

This was the place where Qian Ziyun, Chu Dieyi, Qiu Ruyu, Xia Shuiyang, Ye Feirou, and others lived and cultivated.

They could not help but look into the distance, where it was precisely the place where Zhou Sui was in seclusion to cultivate.

Endless Immortal Qi surged over, covering an area of millions of light-years, which could be described as blotting out the sky and sun.

Fortunately, this was the source of an Eight-Tier Immortal Vein; otherwise, it would have been impossible to gather so much Immortal Qi.

Vaguely, countless amounts of Immortal Qi condensed into the figures of True Spirits such as true dragons and phoenixes, permeating with a terrifying aura, shaking the heavens and earth, and causing the Void to vibrate slightly.

"Is my husband's cultivation going to break through again?"

Qian Ziyun blinked her beautiful eyes; she felt a bit surprised, thinking that her man's cultivation speed was truly too fast.

One must know that they had cultivated for hundreds of millions of years, and they had only reached Golden Immortal Perfection.

They were only one step away from being a Great Luo Golden Immortal.

This could already be considered rapid progress.

But her man was different; after ascending to the Immortal King Realm, his cultivation speed not only did not slow down, but instead became even faster, and it seemed he was about to make another breakthrough, which was truly inconceivable.

"That's right, I'm afraid this breakthrough is to ascend to the Ancient King Realm."

"This realm is already the highest level of immortal for the Human Race, and even for the Five Great Super Races."

"In the history of the Human Race, the strongest were the Ancient Kings."

Feng Jiuyou said with great amazement.

Over the past three hundred million years, her cultivation had also successfully broken through, and she had finally ascended to the Immortal King Realm.

If it were not for this man's help, she estimated that she would never have been able to become an Immortal King in this lifetime.

But now, it was as if everything had fallen into place naturally, without expending any effort.

However, even so, compared to this man, her own cultivation speed was still too slow.

In the blink of an eye, her husband was actually about to ascend to Ancient King; it was truly inconceivable.

To tell the truth, among his Dao Companions, no one knew better than her the difficulty of ascending to Ancient King.

It not only required condensing vast Immortal Power, but also required comprehending the Reincarnation Law.

This point alone had hindered countless Immortal Kings from advancing further.

Among the Five Great Super Races, the vast majority of Immortal Kings were only at the new king stage.

Only an extremely small number of existences could possibly ascend to Ancient King.

In the countless years of the Human Race's history, only nine Ancient Kings had been born.

The other super races were actually much the same.

If her husband ascended to Ancient King, then he would be the tenth Ancient King of the Human Race.

Moreover, the previous five Ancient Kings of the Human Race had all reincarnated, and there were no traces of them returning to the Human Race for the time being.

In other words, currently, the Human Race only had her husband as the sole Ancient King.

"If that is the case, is there any danger in my husband's breakthrough?"

Chu Dieyi asked with some worry.

She felt that it would actually be fine if her man broke through a bit slower; the most important thing was safety.

After all, the safety of the Xuanhuang Sect, and even the Human Race, was entrusted to her husband.

If any accident were to happen, I am afraid it would be a devastating disaster for the Human Race.

Therefore, no matter how cautious one was, it was only right and proper.

"Rest assured, there will be no danger at all."

"It's not like you don't know what a cautious existence your husband is."

"If he didn't have complete certainty, how could he possibly choose to break through?"

"I feel that the probability of success this time is one hundred percent."

Qiu Ruyu smiled slightly; she was full of confidence in her man, feeling that becoming an Ancient King was a matter of course. After all, her man now gathered the Luck of the entire Human Race and was the Human Emperor of the current age.

For an existence like this, even the Heavenly Dao could not possibly allow him to fail his breakthrough.

No matter what he does, he is always able to turn bad luck into good and transform disasters into blessings.

Everything that has happened over these years has, without a single exception, thoroughly proven this point.

Therefore, she felt that her man's breakthrough would certainly be foolproof, and she only needed to wait silently.

There was simply no need to be overly anxious.
