Chapter 1232: Chapter 530: The Greatest Secret of All Time, The Past and Present Lives of Jiang Yuan._2
The years that followed were exceptionally peaceful.
Everyone was waiting for the lord of heaven and earth to pass away in meditation.
For in this era, several Supremes had already made their appearance.
As for the lifespan of a Supreme, it was no longer a secret, with an approximate span of a year or so, marking the very limit of a Supreme’s life.
And the lord of heaven and earth, his aura waning day by day, undoubtedly validated this limit.
However, just when the world thought that the lord of heaven and earth would pass away silently in meditation, this aged lord suddenly emerged from the depths of his palace and ascended beyond the Nine Skies.
Afterward, the lord of heaven and earth suddenly exercised his Grand Abilities, moving mountains to fill seas, inverting the cosmos.
The entire terrain of heaven and earth began to change.
The original heaven and earth were spanned by giant ancient stars within a star domain.
The palace of the lord of heaven and earth resided in the most central and also the largest of these ancient stars.
However, as the lord of heaven and earth exercised his Great Abilities.
Heaven and earth were being remolded, outer ancient stars were forcibly moved to the center, and then one by one, he began reshaping them.
Under his domain, the very heart of creation gradually transformed into vast continents.
Each continent formed, and the creatures he had taken were returned to these lands one after another.
This process lasted for over a decade.
Over ten years of continuous exertion of dharma-power, utilizing Divine Powers, the lord’s condition deteriorated further. Everyone was puzzled by his actions, wondering why an elderly lord of heaven and earth would do such a thing.
Only the lord of heaven and earth knew that this was his bargain, a deal with the will of heaven and earth.
The condition proposed by the will of heaven and earth was for him to reshape heaven and earth, to gather all spiritual natures, forming one unified continent.
In doing so, the remaining spiritual essence could converge, allowing this realm to maintain a benign cycle and not gradually decline toward its end.
Thereafter, as the lord of heaven and earth remade the land, the Five Domains and the Four Seas were completely formed.
After completing the reshaping of the Five Domains and the Four Seas, heavenly intent descended to fulfill the transaction.
In an instant, boundless energy flowed into the body of the lord of heaven and earth.
In an instant, the lord of heaven and earth’s body began to revert to youth, his white hair turning black, the wrinkles on his skin smoothed out.
The withered flesh became full again, qi and blood filled every nook and corner within him.
In just a few breaths, the lord of heaven and earth reverted from the state of an old man with white hair to the peak of his middle age, his glances filled with dignity.
All who saw this were incredulous, their eyes wide in disbelief.
The next moment.
Heaven and earth thundered, the void trembled.
The contemporary strong felt the rapid expansion of a world above the Qingming Realm.
That world was also instantly reflected in the firmament.
Giant ancient woodland skyrocketed into the clouds, vast mountain ranges curled like dragons, and amongst the tiger roars and monkey cries, ancient voices echoed.
At the center of this realm, there stood a sky-piercing World Tree, its branches spreading out for thousands of miles, each leaf surrounded by strands of primordial Chaos.
This was the fully matured World Tree.
As this world appeared before the eyes of the people, it rapidly expanded and inflated.
At this time, the lord of heaven and earth stood above the Nine Skies.
"Today, I establish the Immortal World here; anyone above a Saint may cast aside their physical body, and their primordial spirit may enter the Immortal World to condense an Immortal Body, henceforth starting with a lifespan of at least a million years!"
The moment these words were spoken, it was as if a great earthquake had struck the heavens and earth, this shock even more intense than the lord’s previous remaking of the land and sea.
A lifespan of a million years was astonishing beyond comprehension to many.
It is known that the mightiest beings of this age, those ranked as Supremes, could only possess a lifespan of ten thousand years.
A million-year lifespan was a hundred times that of a Supreme’s.
And that was just the starting point.
But to cast aside the physical body was something no one dared to attempt all at once.
However, a month later.
The dynasty established by the lord of heaven and earth was renamed the Heavenly Court. The entire court ascended and entered the Immortal World.
Another month went by.
An Immortal descended from above, revealing vast Immortal Power. All Spirits cowered before this Immortal might, trembling in their entirety.
Even Saints, and the Supremes who felt this aura, were incredibly shocked.
Because this Immortal power far surpassed their own.
And this descending Immortal, they recognized him. He was once the second mightiest in the dynasty: the Southern King, a warrior in the Supreme Realm.
One month prior, he had ascended with the lord of heaven and earth to what was called the Immortal World. Now he had reappeared with a completely different aura, and the power he displayed filled them with indescribable terror and awe.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan suddenly realized.
The Immortal World was exactly the one created by the Heavenly Emperor.
From his perspective, one should not use the term created, but rather a different expression.
The so-called Immortal World was an elevation of the Heavenly Emperor’s internal Cave Heaven World.
In exchange with the will of this heaven and earth, he had received immense energy, which allowed his Cave Heaven World to evolve, detaching from his body and rising into a deeper layer of space.
And this Heavenly Emperor was also a Daoist ancestor, his path quite diverse.
He didn’t merely practice the path of the primordial spirit, he also cultivated the strength of the physical body.
He, too, had established six great secret realms of the physical body.
Dugu Bo’s achievements on the Flesh Body Path were built upon the shoulders of his predecessors.
Now it seems that the Heavenly Emperor did not leave the true teachings of the Flesh Body Path.
Perhaps the dissemination of its incomplete theory was due to experiments performed with his confidants.
