Book 08 Chapter 073: The Immortals Rage

The land of the living:

The land of the living did not suffer from an information lag like the nether realm. It had entered the information age with the ma.s.s adoption of the zither puppets. All the sovereigns and sect masters would quickly receive word of any major event.

Many sovereigns and sect masters had been keeping an eye on Ji Dihong after he mobilized his forces to the Yan Heavenly Dynasty.

The leaders of the major factions thought little of the Yan Heavenly Dynasty. After all, Ba had simply inherited Jiang Lianshans nation; she had not done much. Furthermore, she had been one of Ji Dihongs generals in the battle for dominance three thousand years ago. Now that Ji Dihong led a group of consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators over, the Yan Heavenly Dynastys doom was at hand.

However, reality often had a way of turning things around. Without driving the power of her nation, Ba had obliterated two consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm experts. Furthermore, she effortlessly suppressed Ji Dihong, who had come with overwhelming force.

Ji Dihongs various means were completely suppressed by Ba. She even wrested away his heavenly eye. Ji Dihong, who had initially appeared formidable, was ultimately defeated and had to flee with two injured subordinates.

The battle in Great Desolation City had left many faction leaders astounded.

However, what came next was even more shocking. There was news from Xuanyuan City that Gu Hai had gone there alone.

In the eyes of countless faction leaders, Gu Hai going alone meant certain death.

However, the reality was fantastic.

Gu Hai came out unscathed and even called Essence Genesis over.

Together, they nearly razed Xuanyuan Citys surroundings. Gu Hai, Ji Dihong, and Essence Genesis battled deep into outer s.p.a.ce.

Most faction leaders had no way of understanding the situation in outer s.p.a.ce.

However, soon after, the Huang Heavenly Dynastys blessings cloud sea collapsed, and the surging blessings poured into the Han Imperial Dynasty.

The outcome was clear. Gu Hai killed Ji Dihong?

This development left them astonished once more.

Gu Hai returned to his capital, intending to advance to a heavenly dynasty with the immense amount of blessings.

At this moment, the leaders of various factions throughout the realm no longer had any thoughts of vying with Gu Hai.

Gu Hai had proven his ferocity with each of his remarkable achievements.

Now, the Han Imperial Dynasty was conducting a ceremony to offer sacrifices to the immortal firmament, inviting heaven and earth to witness its advancement to a heavenly dynasty. Such a significant event naturally sent shock waves throughout the Divine Continent.

The nearby sovereigns and sect masters flew to Borderless Heavenly Capitals vicinity to watch the scene of an advancement to a heavenly dynasty from a distance.

Previously, Gu Hai declared the Han Nation would not advance to a heavenly dynasty before destroying the Spirit Mountain Holy Land. Now, Gu Hai had not only achieved that but had also destroyed the Huang Heavenly Dynasty.

However, the sovereigns and sect masters did not know that the Han Nation had advanced to a heavenly dynasty not just in the land of the living but also in the nether realm, using its secondary capital.

After Gu Hai made his proclamation, the golden blessings dragon rushed into the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal, which then stamped the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds.

Boom!

A loud report rang out, and the entire Han Imperial Dynasty trembled. The Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds was the roll of the Han Imperial Dynastys civil and military officials. Each name on the list was an official of the Han Imperial Dynasty.

In the sky, celestial music floated, exotic fragrances wafted, and countless auspicious signs appeared. Confined to the Han Nation, this celebration represented the immortal firmaments congratulations. Throughout history, such an atmosphere was customary during the advancement to a heavenly dynasty.

However, s.p.a.ce suddenly trembled, as though a force had stirred up the three thousand Great Dao.

After a loud buzz, the celestial music spread to every corner of the Divine Continent.

The many sovereigns and sect masters who could not come looked skywards in shock.

Whats happening? The Han Imperial Dynasty is advancing, but why are there auspicious signs in my sect?

My dynasty is billions of kilometers away from the Han Imperial Dynasty, so why do we also hear celestial music? Whats with this radiant light, and why are divine beasts and immortal birds appearing?

Countless faction leaders showed astonishment.

------

Spirit Mountain:

Jiangchen had long left Deity Seizing Hall.

He had stepped out of the Six Paths Immortal Firmament, following Essence Genesis and Ji Dihong into the void when they started their battle.

After all, to Jiangchen, the battle between Essence Genesis and Ji Dihong was far more exciting than Gu Hais nations advancement to a heavenly dynasty.

However, the widespread phenomenon occurred not long after Jiangchen left.

Only Long Aotian remained, incredulous as he gazed into the distance. A universal celebration? Are they celebrating the Han Imperial Dynastys advancement to a heavenly dynasty? How can this be?

Every faction was deeply shaken.

The grandeur was beyond imagination; it was downright astonis.h.i.+ng. Gu Hai was being celebrated by the entire immortal firmament!

------

A grand hall in Borderless Heavenly Capital:

Long Wanyu chuckled as if she had accomplished something extraordinary.

Mao Tianyun and Lady Houtu, on the other hand, wore expressions of despair.

Its over, its over. The Six Paths Immortal will definitely find out! Lady Houtu exclaimed, her voice quavering with terror.

He is absolutely sure to find out. The advancement to a heavenly dynasty is definitely related to Gu Hai, and only Heaven Cang can manipulate the three thousand Great Dao to do this. Heaven Cang? Heaven Cang? Youre about to be exposed! Mao Tianyun added, panicking.

The safety of Long Wanyu was the greatest concern of everyone. She was now completely exposed. If the Six Paths Immortal discovered her, it would mean certain death.

Quick, lets hide in the Gus Immortal Firmament! Lady Houtu urged anxiously.

In the distance, Gu Hai lifted the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal from the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds. The golden blessings dragon emerged and circled the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds.

Roar!

After a deafening dragon roar, the golden blessings dragon soared into the sky, flying back into the blessings cloud sea.

Rumble!

The golden blessings dragon gradually transformed into numerous divine images. The dragons body turned into the images of the civil and military officials, and the humongous dragon head took on Gu Hais appearance.

There was no longer a golden blessings dragon in the blessings cloud sea but the Han Nations heavenly court.

Gu Hais image sat on a throne, and the civil and military officials stood in two columns.

This was the style of a heavenly dynasty.

Buzz!

Every divine image sent a beam of light to their corresponding official.

Instantly, those officials felt an unprecedented comfort throughout their bodies. Blessings entered them, sweeping away all hidden injuries, and the Spiritual Energy around them increased tenfold.

After the installation, they enjoyed the usage of the Han Nations blessings.

The one who benefited the most was naturally Gu Hai, whose image radiated a regal aura.

The light from the divine images faded slowly, but all the officials could sense its continued presence.

Celestial music rang out, and auspicious signs appeared. The divine images had formed; the heavenly dynasty was established.

At this moment, heaven and earth bore witness to the Han Nations formally advancing to a heavenly dynasty.

All the officials immediately saluted loudly.

Salutations, Your Holy Eminence! Long live Your Holy Eminence! May Your Holy Eminence live for ten thousand years! the officials shouted.

The officials united voices echoed throughout Borderless Heavenly Capital.

Salutations, Your Holy Eminence! Long live Your Holy Eminence! May Your Holy Eminence live for ten thousand years! Countless citizens also knelt in Gu Hais direction and saluted.

The blessings cloud sea transmitted the voices to the ears of all the people.

In the two thousand four hundred cities in the land of the living, countless citizens, officials, and soldiers bowed respectfully in Borderless Heavenly Capitals direction.

Salutations, Your Holy Eminence! Long live Your Holy Eminence! May Your Holy Eminence live for ten thousand years!

Long live the Han Heavenly Dynasty! May the Han Heavenly Dynasty last for ten thousand years!

The thunderous acclaim reverberated throughout the Han Nation.

From this moment on, the Han Nation had officially advanced to a heavenly dynasty in the eyes of the worldthe Han Heavenly Dynasty.

The officials address of Gu Hai changed from Your Reverence to Your Holy Eminence.

The Han Heavenly Dynastys heavenly emperor, Gu Hai!

From this moment on, the Han Heavenly Dynasty had truly risen above the imperial dynasties and middle-tier sects in the world. It stood side by side with heaven, overlooking the world!

The same happened in the nether realm. The golden blessings dragon returned to the blessings cloud sea and turned into divine images of Gu Hai and his officials.

The nether realm mirrored the land of the living.

Auspicious signs filled the place, heaven and earth congratulating the nation.

Gu Hai put away the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal and the Invest.i.ture of the G.o.ds, took a deep breath, and accepted the adoration from all over the world.

However, at this moment, Lady Houtu and Mao Tianyun rushed over, their faces filled with horror.

Gu Hai, quickly, take Wanyu into the Gus Immortal Firmament! Lady Houtu urged anxiously.

Gu Hai was momentarily puzzled, not understanding why.

She drove the three thousand Great Dao, causing a universal celebration in both the land of the living and the nether realm! Lady Houtu explained urgently.

Gu Hai turned his head again. His divine image above the blessings cloud sea suddenly opened its eyes. With its eyes wide open, it saw the entire world. What the divine image saw was what Gu Hai himself saw.

All over the worldfrom Great Desolation City to Xuanyuan City, Deity Seizing Hall, Chiyou City, and the Myriad Age Daoist Secteverywhere was filled with this tremendous auspiciousness.

Suddenly, Gu Hai understood everything. Things were about to take a turn for the worse.

Boom!

A loud report came from the sky, indicating it was already too late.

Roiling dark clouds instantly acc.u.mulated over Borderless Heavenly Capital. Then, the clouds parted, revealing a colossal Heavens eye.

Heavens eye? The Six Paths Immortal is investigating?

Before the heavenly might, everyone except Gu Hai and the consummate Upper Heavenly Palace Realm cultivators were pressured into kneeling.

Heavens eye seemed to radiate rage and murderous intent.

Driving the three thousand Great Dao was the privilege of the Immortal. Who dared to infringe upon the Immortals authority? Although they had been driven for something useless, they had been driven, which encroached on the Immortals authority.

Who did it?! The Six Paths Immortals icy rage spread to every corner of the land of the living and the nether realm.

Borderless Heavenly Capital bore the brunt of this, as this place was the source of the auspicious signs. Hence, the Six Paths Immortal investigated it first.

Its over! Lady Houtu exclaimed in despair.

Not far away, Long Wanyus eyes widened, her mouth agape. She also realized she had caused trouble and retreated hastily into the palace hall.

Mao Tianyun, on the other hand, was on the verge of tears. Does she think hiding inside the hall is of any use? Under the scrutiny of Heavens eye, buildings cannot s.h.i.+eld anyone from the Immortals gaze.

This is bad!

The Six Paths Immortal was going to investigate thoroughly. Everyone believed Borderless Heavenly Capital was about to face disaster. Lady Houtu even showed a resolute look, ready for a fight.

Gu Hais expression darkened as he clenched his fists, preparing to resist the heavenly might.

A murderous intent brewed over Borderless Heavenly Capital. A cool breeze blew, but it felt exceptionally chilling.

Long Wanyu, Chen Xianer, Gu Qin, Gu Han, and Gu Tang all wore grim expressions. When they looked at Heavens eye, they displayed an unyielding spirit. Only Gu Ming furrowed his brows slightly, a tinge of frustration in his eyes.

In all directions, countless faction leaders received the news and showed astonishment. Might the newly established Han Heavenly Dynasty be erased by the Six Paths Immortal so soon?

Buzz!

However, Heavens eye suddenly closed in the next moment, and the dark clouds above Borderless Heavenly Capital promptly scattered.

Huh? What happened? A trace of surprise crossed the face of Lady Houtu, who had steeled herself for a fight.

The Six Paths Immortals consciousness left? Gu Hai said in shock.

The Six Paths Immortals attention had come with such force, and now, in the blink of an eye, it was gone? This did not make sense!

Everyone wore a bewildered expression.

However, the eyes of Gu Hais divine image above the blessings cloud sea soon sharpened. He saw dark clouds suddenly gathering in the distant south, and Heavens eye opened over the Myriad Age Daoist Sect.

So, its you who dared to meddle with my Great Dao? The Six Paths Immortals enraged voice instantly echoed throughout the Divine Continent.

Then Gu Hais divine image seemed to hear a very familiar voice.

Why am I so unlucky?!
