Chapter 631: The Tribulation of time (2)
Translator: 549690339
A hundred years passed, and it was now year 1600 of the octoterra calendar. Su qingluan had the final say in the heavenly court, and no one thought of complaining. Every day, Immortals would look at the octoterra universe and watch the phenomenons that were constantly forming.
The heavenly court had also gradually gotten used to su qingyue holding small court meetings. Unlike Chen jingzhai, who did nothing, su qinghuang had to manage everything, no matter how big or small. Even if there was a demon beast in a certain world causing trouble, she would send celestial troops and celestial generals to fight it.
Thanks to su qingluan’s diligence over the past hundred years, the prestige of the heavenly court had been deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Although there were some inevitable negative effects, it had also attracted a large number of cultivators and Immortals to join the heavenly court.
With the establishment of The Nine Laws system, there were many immortal officials below the second grade, and there were 900 immortal officials of the sixth, seventh, and eighth grades. These low-grade immortal officials also appeared in the Great Spirit heaven, making the Great Spirit heaven no longer a world of Immortal Weapons, but also dharmic weapons.
The only regret was that no one had broken through to the heaven immortal realm in the past 100 years.
The scorching sun sect and the celestial star sect had increased the number of heaven Immortals with the help of gold immortal artifacts, but none of them had broken through to the gold immortal realm. Their seals had also been unsealed in year 1616 of the octoterra calendar. The two sects ‘foundations had been greatly improved, which had caught the attention of all the immortal sects.
In year 1660 of the eight barren calendar, Chen jingzhai comprehended the Dao of the world in the ocean of laws. With 360 types of laws as the core, it contained all the aura of the laws in the ocean of laws and integrated them into his divine power.
He leaped out of the ocean of laws and returned to his body. At the same time, the celestial Heavenly King, the reincarnation Emperor, and the heavenly Dao’s avatar all returned without a trace. No Immortals noticed them, not even golden Immortals.
The moment he became a golden immortal, it was as if a pause button had been pressed on the vast universe. At the same time, Chen jingzhai’s projection appeared in the universe. The universe expanded a hundred times again, and even the Star Wars battlefield became bigger.
“What a powerful aura.”
“This isn’t the power of an undying golden immortal.”
“The world Lord is indeed enviable.”
“Venerable sovereigns are mighty. We didn’t make the wrong choice!”
“Breaking through to undying in such a short time, it’s really hard to believe.”
“…”
All the Golden Immortals let out a sigh of relief. They didn’t dare to be negligent. Hearing the ringing of the nine Dragons immortal Bell, they gathered in the heaven sovereign Palace with the other immortal officials. There were streams of light everywhere as they rushed straight to the ninth heaven.
In the heavenly Emperor Palace, Chen jingzhai was wearing a nine-Dragon immortal robe and sitting on the Dragon Throne with su qingluan. More and more immortal officials gradually appeared in the palace.
“Venerable sovereign, have you made a breakthrough after a hundred years of seclusion?” Yan Xun asked excitedly.
“That’s right.” Chen jingzhai nodded with a smile.”For the undying, I’ve walked my own path. My beloved subjects, I’ll encourage you all. In the future, I’ll have to cultivate more.”
“Congratulations, Emperor.” All the immortal officials bowed in celebration.
Chen jingzhai chuckled and dismissed everyone. Then, he began to ask many questions about the heavenly court, especially about the strength of the immortals and the battlefield in the stars.
After he became a gold immortal, the universe had grown at the same time, and nothing in the universe could hide from him. He naturally knew about the changes in the heavenly court, and he had specifically told su qingluan to add the nine techniques before he went into seclusion.
As for the battlefield of the stars, the abominable Lord had yet to be born, but Chen jingzhai knew that he would be born in 50 years. He had absorbed too many golden immortal level demons, and before he was born, he would have to cross the boundary and become a grand unity immortal.
This was not a domain that the abominable Lord should have stepped into. Once he became a grand unity, the heavenly Dao would be the first to destroy him. The heavenly Dao placed great importance on balance, and in essence, the abominable Lord was the beginning of the negative universe. If he became a grand unity, the balance would be broken.
“You haven’t broken through yet?” Chen jingzhai looked at Red Kite.
“No,” star sovereign Red Kite said indifferently.”During the 120 years that the venerable sovereign went into seclusion, no heaven immortal broke through to golden immortal.”
“What a pity.” Chen jingzhai shook his head.”Everyone missed the opportunity. If you had a breakthrough during this period, you would have been rewarded by the heavenly Dao. What a pity.”
All the immortals felt their intestines turn green, especially some of the rank five heaven Immortals. Everyone had a chance of breaking through, but with the example of Star Lord Hong Luan, they were afraid of the lightning tribulation.
In addition, Chen jingzhai was cultivating in seclusion, and the strange phenomenon was shocking. In order not to disturb Chen jingzhai, no one chose to break through. Who would have thought …
“May I ask what the reward is, celestial Lord?” Bai Jingyue asked.
“I’m wandering in the laws, and what’s revealed to the outside is a vision,” Chen jingzhai said.”If I successfully break through now, I’ll resonate with the vision, and it’ll be easier to comprehend the heavenly path divine arts. There will also be other mysterious opportunities. They’re unspeakable but very precious.”
“Do we still have a chance?” Tianjun Chu asked after taking a deep breath.
“A chance?” Chen jingzhai laughed.”Perhaps when I advance to grand unity!”
All the immortals had different thoughts, but the pity on their faces could be seen with a glance. Chen jingzhai chuckled and asked Star Lord Hong Luan to make preparations. They would go to the Star Wars battlefield and kill for 100 years. They would think about it after their hearts had completely calmed down.
Chen jingzhai also encouraged the other heaven Immortals who wanted to break through to the Golden immortal realm to go to the Star Wars battlefield and use their divine powers more. They could experience the changes in their divine powers more. Simply sitting quietly and cultivating was useless. Even heaven Immortals could kill more demons and accumulate merit.
After the small court Assembly ended, the immortals dispersed.
Star Lord Hong Luan did not doubt Chen jingzhai’s words at all. She quickly headed to the Star Wars battlefield and led the female troops, specifically hunting golden immortal level demons.
“Grandmaster, do you really have to kill demons to advance?” Fu Yunzi asked.
“Killing isn’t her goal.” Chen jingzhai waved his hand, gesturing for the five Immortals to sit down. Looking at the flowers in the Imperial garden, he smiled and said,”she cultivates the path of the mortal world. If she doesn’t have a clear and transparent state of mind, she can’t walk her own path in the mortal world.”
Killing demonic Devils was to calm one’s state of mind. In the midst of killing, one would not be disturbed by other distracting thoughts and truly seek inner peace in the midst of killing. At that time, one would naturally be able to see one’s own path and have the foundation to advance to golden immortal.
“I see.” Immortal taizhen sighed.”It’s indeed difficult for ancestral master to calm down. If your heart is not calm, your Dao will naturally be rugged. It’s difficult to transcend in the mortal world.”
“Let’s not talk about this,” Chen jingzhai said with a smile.”I wonder how the five Immortals have perfected the Dao of tribulation?” If it’s perfected, I can follow the sky-devouring beast to explore other universes. ”
“We’ve almost perfected it. There’s only one problem,” immortal Long Yuan said with a sigh.”And that is the Tribulation of time, the lifespans tribulation.”
“What’s the problem?” Chen jingzhai asked.
“After this tribulation, I’m afraid we’ll be hated by the immortals and cultivators of the world.” Immortal Xiaolu smiled wryly.”Mortals absorb Qi into their bodies and refine it into vital Qi, so their lifespans naturally increase. When they reach the foundation establishment realm, they have at least 460 years of life. If they become golden core cultivators, their lifespans will be 500 to 800. If they become nascent soul cultivators, their lifespans will be more than 1000 years. The Tribulation of time has been set, and golden core cultivators have 600 years of life. Foundation establishment cultivators only have 360 years of life. This …”
The immortal path pursued by cultivators was essentially about immortality and longevity. When the Tribulation of time was set, a part of the cultivator’s lifespan would be taken away, even the genuine Immortals were not spared. Only by becoming a celestial immortal and passing any of the five decays of heaven and man could one’s lifespan be maintained.
It was no wonder that even the five calamity Immortals, who had become golden Immortals, were not confident in setting up the time tribulation. This tribulation was too deadly. Once the news spread, not only the five calamity Immortals, but even the allheaven celestial gate would not be able to withstand it!
“Only when the Dao of tribulation is completed can you leave the eight barren universe,” Chen jingzhai said.”You can also complete the eight barren universe, so this tribulation must be set. How about this?” I’ll personally take action to hide the secrets of heaven. How about we wait for the next reincarnation for the Tribulation of time? When that time comes, you can leave with Daoist sky devouring in peace. ”
“Good!” The five calamity Immortals heaved a sigh of relief.
It didn’t matter if they bore the karma. After all, they were undying tribulation Transcenders. However, they couldn’t affect the allheaven celestial gate, and they didn’t want to become the target of public criticism. Now that they had Chen jingzhai’s cover and the delay of time, they were greatly relieved.
One cycle was a cycle of life and death, which was 180 years.
Living 80 years old and dying 100 years old, this was the standard for living and living.
Regardless of whether one lived to 80 or beyond 80 years old, one’s lifespan would be calculated by addition and subtraction. Before the end of one’s lifespan, one must be reincarnated. Otherwise, one’s soul would be scattered, and one would not even be able to be a ghost.
The three good and three evil paths of the six paths of reincarnation also had to be balanced. If one chose to follow the three good paths, the other would definitely follow the three evil paths. Therefore, the work of reincarnation was not first come, first served. It was first trial before judgment, and then a queue to enter the reincarnation.
Basically, one could enter the cycle of reincarnation a hundred years after death. If one had committed heinous crimes, one would have to enter the 18 levels of hell and would not be able to reincarnate even if they wanted to.
