Chapter 248 The Benefits Brought by the Immortal Corpse and the New Era
The golden spear trembled slightly and emitted a low hum, seemingly in resistance, as it sensed Jiang Hao's gaze.
"You think you can resist with just a weapon!" Chaotic energy appeared in Jiang Hao's palm, directly enveloping the short spear.
The short spear struggled violently, bursting forth with golden celestial light, attempting to pierce through the chaos.
But with Jiang Hao's current strength, the golden short spear was no match for him.
Jiang Hao slowly closed his five fingers.
Click...
A faint cracking sound came from inside the short spear; it was the sound of An Qiong's last mark being forcibly erased.
The light on the spear dimmed, and it became docile.
Jiang Hao probed with his divine sense, carefully sensing the lingering resonance left by the Crimson Spear.
Vast, majestic, with an indifference that transcends all paths.
"A Celestial King is at least someone who has taken several crucial steps in his cultivation. This aura is more than one level higher than An Qiong's Celestial Laws."
Jiang Hao was engrossed in it, comparing it with the secret technique he had obtained from the ruins of the Imperial Blue Star.
"The Tao transforms into an eternal body."
He had only just mastered this secret technique, yet it was already able to unleash power comparable to a Celestial King's technique when he fought against An Qiong.
"Who exactly created this secret technique?" Jiang Hao wondered intensely.
The Heavenly Emperor of the chaotic ancient era? Or an even more ancient being?
This secret technique is far too profound; it is not simply a technique for attacking and fighting.
Instead, they temporarily integrate their own Dao fruit, divine consciousness, and even traces of existence into the context of the past, present, and future, thereby obtaining incredible power.
Upon initial formation, one can draw upon the power of all paths and transform into a phantom of ancient history.
What about Da Cheng? That would be terrible!
Could it really be possible to briefly transform into eternity and overlook the long river of time?
"This secret technique absolutely surpasses the level of an ordinary Immortal King. The creator of this secret technique is definitely a powerful Immortal King, or even stronger!"
Jiang Hao felt the pressure. After all, with such a powerful person, even the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm had been shattered. The enemy's strength must be even more terrifying.
But it also ignited a competitive spirit. Although the road ahead was difficult, at least there was a direction and a reference point.
In the quiet room, time seemed to lose its meaning.
Eight hundred years, five hundred years, one thousand years.
His aura sometimes surged, sometimes subsided, and sometimes intricate and profound Dao patterns appeared around his body.
Those were fragments of laws extracted from the flesh and blood of the immortal corpse, which he was analyzing and digesting little by little.
Sometimes he seems to merge into the void, creating a subtle resonance with the origin of this world.
The immortal corpse was slowly shriveling, and the golden light on the short spear was fading.
Another two thousand years have passed.
The cultivators of the Origin Realm gradually discovered that the world seemed to be different.
"Did you feel it?" In the Big Dipper Star Region, an old sage stood atop a mountain, sensing for a long time with his eyes closed. When he opened them, his expression was one of surprise and doubt.
Has the concentration of spiritual energy in heaven and earth increased?
His friend beside him was stunned for a moment, then tried circulating the technique himself, and immediately widened his eyes: "Yes, it's definitely at least ten percent more than before!"
"It's not just spiritual energy," another young sage said. He specialized in formations and was exceptionally sensitive to the laws of heaven and earth.
"The Great Dao seems to be smoother now. Before, when I tried to comprehend the laws of the Holy Dao, I always felt like there was a veil between us, but now that veil has become thinner."
Similar sounds began to echo in every corner of the myriad realms.
On the Purple Star, a disciple of the Sun God Cult discovered during his morning breathing exercises that the wisp of innate purple energy accompanying the sunrise was nearly 10% more concentrated than before.
In the Demon Clan's Holy Temple, several old demon kings sat together, looking at each other in bewilderment.
They simultaneously sensed that the ancestral bloodline imprints upon which the demon race relied for enlightenment had become clearer.
Even on some desolate, uninhabited ancient stars, a faint mist of spiritual energy began to seep from the surface.
Those long-depleted spiritual veins seemed to have been infused with new vitality.
"Do you think these changes in the world might be leaked by the Heavenly Emperor when he was studying the immortal corpses?"
"It must be the Heavenly Emperor."
I don't know who said that first.
Then, more and more people raised their heads and looked in the direction of the Heavenly Court.
"The Heavenly Emperor has been in seclusion for the past few thousand years, studying that immortal corpse."
"Immortals, those are immortals! The Heavenly Emperor has beheaded immortals, and now he's dissecting their corpses, trying to dig out the secrets to becoming an immortal."
This speculation quickly spread throughout the heavens.
No one found it absurd; on the contrary, the more they thought about it, the more reasonable it seemed.
That was an immortal. The Heavenly Emperor could even slay immortals. What's so strange about learning something from an immortal's corpse and benefiting the entire world?
"The Heavenly Emperor eats meat, and we follow suit with soup." A middle-aged cultivator smacked his lips. "But this soup is so delicious."
It really smells good.
In just two thousand years, the overall spiritual energy concentration in the Origin Realm has increased by more than 10%.
The clarity of the Great Dao's laws and the smoothness of enlightenment have also significantly improved.
In the past, this would have required hundreds of thousands of years of natural evolution to achieve.
And now, it has been achieved in 2000.
"The Heavenly Emperor's strike has truly ushered in a golden age for us," an old man remarked.
"What are you talking about? The Heavenly Emperor did that to protect the Origin Realm," the young man corrected him. "As for what we're seeing now, these are just some perks the Heavenly Emperor is giving out as a bonus."
"Even as a side effect, it's this powerful..." the old man murmured, "What would it be like if the Heavenly Emperor specifically sought out ways to upgrade the Origin Realm?"
No one can answer that.
Because I can't imagine it.
Even in the forbidden zone of life, the supreme beings are sensing the changes in heaven and earth.
"Chaos..." a supreme being said in a complicated tone, "He is truly dissecting the origin of immortality and has successfully given back to this world."
"He never asks for anything," another supreme being said slowly after a long silence.
"He kept exploring, and then shared what he discovered with the world."
"It was distributed to all living beings, and it was also distributed to us." The third supreme being smiled bitterly.
They did nothing but hide here and eke out a living, yet they could still enjoy the small benefits brought by the improvement of heaven and earth.
"I used to think he was domineering and wouldn't tolerate disobedience," the first supreme being said again.
"Looking back now, he was domineering, but never to his own people. He was tough on outsiders, but not on his own..."
He didn't finish speaking, but the other supreme beings understood.
They're aggressive towards outsiders, but internally they've always been giving.
Give order, give peace, give a way forward.
Now, even the insights gained from the immortal corpse have been scattered throughout this world.
Greatness needs no further explanation!
In the blink of an eye, thousands of years have passed.
The traces of the Dao left by Emperor Qian Yuan, Jiang Heng, have finally completely disappeared under the erosion of time.
The shackles of the Great Dao between heaven and earth seemed to loosen for a moment, and then an even more surging and powerful fortune rose up from all parts of the universe.
A new imperial path has begun.
This time, because of Jiang Hao's feat of killing a True Immortal and his gift of giving a public sermon, the world's potential seems to have been fully unleashed.
The number and quality of the outstanding talents emerging are even greater than those of Jiang Heng's generation.
The ancient road to the stars has become bustling again, with fierce battles erupting at every pass.
In this generation, the names of several prodigies quickly spread throughout the heavens.
Qingjing comes from the planet Dilan and belongs to the Divine Silkworm Clan, a powerful clan that has recently risen to prominence across the heavens.
Her true form was a divine silkworm, its body as clear as crystal. After transforming, she became a woman with a cool and aloof temperament and eyes like glass.
She cultivates the "Divine Silkworm Scripture" created by Jiang Hao himself. The technique and her bloodline are perfectly compatible, making her combat power astonishing.
More importantly, she has the mysterious Divine Silkworm Clan and the mysterious Imperial Blue Star standing behind her.
