Chapter 517: 192: Struggle of Destiny, Another
He was puzzled that when his divine consciousness just swept over the Longevity Immortal City, he felt a peculiar energy.
The energy was faintly connected to Heaven and Earth, but slightly different from this area. However, when he carefully investigated, he found nothing.
He felt that this strange occurrence was like the escape of Heaven and Earth from before, which had never happened before in his memory.
A variable.
Could this be the breakthrough variable he had been pursuing for so many years?
At this moment, Master Heavenly Fate forced himself to calm down, although doubtful, it was not a reason for him to take action directly.
The experiments of the two paths of destiny were still ongoing. As long as it wasn’t a complete crisis, he would not intervene, allowing the two paths to naturally proceed.
However, the path of fate is more difficult than the path of fortune, and judging by the results of the experiments over the years, he decided to wait for now.
Just then, a flash of inspiration suddenly came to his mind, and without hesitation, he directly asked, “Is the Immortal Dynasty Competition about to begin again?”
Master Heavenly Luck on the other side did not open his eyes but answered straightforwardly with a steady voice.
“It should be within a thousand years. When the fortune of the Ten Thousand Year Immortal Dynasty converges, the competition between the various Immortal Dynasties will begin.
You used to not care about such things, do you think your Seeking Truth lineage can take advantage of this situation again?”
“I can tell you clearly that they have no chance. The innate destiny fruit of this time will definitely belong to my path of fortune.”
“Is that so?”
Despite the provocation of Heavenly Fate Child, he remained somewhat teasing, “Who can be sure before the outcome? What if there is a change?”
“Let’s wait and see.”
As they argued, the chessboard disappeared, and their figures vanished. Only in the depths of the clouds, a galaxy was hanging upside down, its breath mysterious and deep, and no one knew where it extended.
But surprisingly, the end extended into the Cultivation World, and the connection below was actually the spiritual veins of the Immortal Dynasty, which divided and emerged with a colorful radiance.
Longevity Immortal City.
At this moment, Su Wu was reconstructing the City Lord Mansion. After eradicating the dark path of the Church of All Beings, he began to establish a new City Lord Mansion with high spirits.
Kaiyuan Child had also sent his congratulations from the outside of the Immortal City with the help of divine treasure, as long as Su Wu is still in power, the Longevity Immortal City would respect him regardless of his cultivation level.
This was the result of the competition between the various lineages of the Immortal Dynasty. Regardless of whether others were convinced or not, this was the outcome.
In other words, if Su Wu couldn’t take advantage of Longevity Immortal City’s destiny to break through the realm and advance his cultivation further, the city would still be controlled by Ling Xiaozi’s lineage.
As for Su Wu, only after his fall would Ling Xiaozi’s lineage choose someone suitable to inherit Longevity Immortal City, but by then, it would have nothing to do with Su Wu.
Once a person dies, their lamp goes out. Who could care about the matters left behind?
But as long as Su Wu did not die, no matter his cultivation level, he would remain as the Lord of Longevity Immortal City, and no one could take it away from him.
After consolidating the City Lord Mansion, Su Wu immediately placed the “Sealed Feng Yuan” mountain stone in the new City Lord Mansion, and then reconnected the spiritual veins of the Immortal Dynasty.
This was relying on the divine treasure sent by Kaiyuan Child, only allowing Su Wu to connect to the spiritual vein and activate the Mustard Seed Technique.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for a Golden Core True Person like Su Wu to enter the mountain stone. After all, he was just an ordinary Golden Core True Person, how could he master such mustard seed mastery?
After connecting to the spiritual veins of the Immortal Dynasty, Su Wu saw the sealed “Feng Yuan,” with his six senses blocked and unable to perceive any external energy.
After reconnecting the spiritual veins of the Immortal Dynasty, the destiny of the Immortal Dynasty fluctuated, and the East Victory Immortal Dynasty knew the outcome of Longevity Immortal City at the first instance. Ling Xiaozi just laughed without saying anything, and Chunyangzi had the same expression.
For them, this was a double victory. Ling Xiaozi’s lineage controlled the Immortal City, and Chunyangzi’s disciple Feng Yuan was just looking for an opportunity for life tribulation.
Chunyangzi hoped that Feng Yuan would appear after the Immortal Dynasty Competition, otherwise, if the life tribulation and the competition happened together, it would be more difficult to overcome the tribulation.
Moreover, according to Su Wu’s report on Feng Yuan’s condition, Feng Yuan should still be in the life tribulation seal during the Immortal Dynasty Competition.
This, however, was good news.
Not long after, Kaiyuan Child also left the Immortal City Outer Space, as the Immortal Dynasty has now explicitly stated that the city has a owner, and others cannot disturb the restoration of Longevity Immortal City.
So, the next Longevity Immortal City entered a peaceful period and, after the Immortal Dynasty’s spiritual veins were connected, the city’s branches were slowly repaired.
After all, Liang Sheng had been too ruthless back then, almost completely draining the Longevity Immortal City’s spiritual vein branches, and it would take a long time to recover.
In fact, according to Liang Sheng’s earlier plans, after the connection of the Immortal Dynasty’s spiritual veins at this time, he would enter the Mountain Stone Sumi Space, hiding deep in the spiritual vein branches, slowly absorbing Heaven and Earth Spine.
However, when Su Wu succeeded, by relying on the Law of Cause and Effect, he seemed to see a chess game outside the sky.
Although it was fleeting, it still made him not dare to act recklessly. Everything needed to be cautious, and there was no hurry with his long lifespan.
As for Su Wu’s every move, it was now under the complete monitoring of the puppet, which was the “Nascent Soul Ancestor” of the Green Mountain Sect.
Although Su Wu was somewhat guarded against it, as time passed, he gradually let go of his concerns.
This was indeed the guardian left behind by the former Immortal City Lord Zhen Yuan, but now it was guarding him instead.
It was precisely because of this guarantee that Su Wu began to practice in peace. Now that he was the supreme City Lord and the city’s fortune was concentrated on him, if not for the hard work of cultivation and breakthrough, when would be the time?
Under such circumstances, Longevity Immortal City developed steadily. With the suppression of the “Nascent Soul Ancestor”, a hundred years passed in a flash.
During this period, Su Wu only took one Nascent Soul Pill and successfully broke through the Nascent Soul Realm.
With this breakthrough, he was even more at ease with the “Nascent Soul Ancestor”, not only because he now had his own strength to suppress the Immortal City, and did not have to rely on the “Nascent Soul Ancestor” for everything, but also because, in these hundred years, under the protection of the “Nascent Soul Ancestor”, everyone in the City Lord Mansion still recognized Su Wu as the City Lord.
The City Lord Mansion was united, making their rule more solid. After the extinction of the Church of All Beings in Longevity Immortal City, everything operated strictly according to the rules of the City Lord Mansion.
After Su Wu’s breakthrough to the Nascent Soul Realm, he temporarily stopped closed-door cultivation and practiced outside to lay a solid foundation in preparation for the breakthrough to Divinity Transformation.
However, Su Wu didn’t know how many thousands of years he would need to have an opportunity to break through to the Divinity Transformation Realm, and, even with the city fortune on his side, he could not say for certain he would succeed.
The difficulty of cultivation, after all, cannot be rushed.
In these hundred years, not only Su Wu had changes, but Liang Sheng also achieved progress, as his Lifespan Cultivation Technique finally broke through once again, and his lifespan soared.
Name: Liang Sheng
Age: 1837
Talent: Innocent Foolishness (Top-Grade)
Techniques: Primordial Mysterious Technique (Fourth Layer), Ascending Immortality Scripture
(Twenty-First Layer), Twenty Health Maintenance Techniques (Twenty- Seventh Layer), Nail-Head Seven Arrows Technique (Curse), Grand Solar Golden Crow Contemplation Method (Divine Ability)
Realm: Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation (Initial stage of Soul Emergence)
Lifespan: 98489
Because of the previously seen illusory chess game, Liang Sheng hadn’t made any strange moves in these hundred years, completely in hiding.
No matter what, he couldn’t figure out what was going on with this chess game, only occasional scenes, which made him even more confused.
This couldn’t help but make him wonder if he was also in the chess game? Fortunately, no accidents happened during these hundred years, which gave him a sigh of relief, but his actions became even more cautious and careful.
While the breakthrough of the Lifespan Cultivation Technique and the increase in lifespan would normally be a big joy, Liang Sheng felt somewhat helpless in his heart.
It seemed that every time his cultivation or lifespan made a breakthrough, some uncontrollable situations would happen. And most of them were related to him. This time, the unexpected situation was one of the least he wanted to see.
Even if Longevity Immortal City’s spiritual energy was restored, Jin Quanxiu and the others from the Wilderness would still find it difficult to cultivate and break through. And this time, the person in trouble was not someone else but his Second Elder Brother, Shen Wuque. By then, more than 150 years had passed since the death of their Eldest Senior Brother, Xiang Chen.
At this moment, Shen Wuque’s lifespan was also approaching its end. Even though he was prepared, after all, under his long life, it was destined that many people around him would be passers-by in his life.
But when it was time to say goodbye, his heart still surged with emotions, as he was not a ruthless person after all.
Second Elder Brother, what will your choice be this time?
Will you cling to life?
Or will you, like Eldest Senior Brother, face death calmly?
