"Who is the Grand Empyrean? As long as I succeed, there will be a result!"
Immortal Sovereign Qinglian returned to the palace and pondered for a moment. She summoned Taiyi and said, "The Lord of Primordial Beginning ruined my opportunity to prove my Dao and plotted against Maha, preventing my Nirvanic Immortal Dao from fully succeeding. I need to enter seclusion for a period of time to deduce the Nirvanic Immortal Dao to the Dao Lord realm. However, I have already promised you to block your Nirvanic Tribulation. Naturally, I have to keep my promise. "
Taiyi was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked her.
He had been tortured by the Nirvanic Aura all these years and had become a white-haired old man. Half of the power in his body had been consumed by the Nirvanic Aura!
If this continued, he wouldn't be able to survive his Nirvanic Tribulation!
Green Lotus Immortal Venerable smiled and said, "There is still 500 million years before the Nirvana Tribulation erupts in your body. In these 500 million years, you will be weakening day by day. You will grow old and wither until the Nirvana Tribulation erupts. You will die and turn into ashes. Today, I will inject Primordial Connate into your body to suppress your Nirvanic Aura so that you will no longer weaken. Primordial Connate will become my Dao body and chant scriptures day and night to help you comprehend and integrate the Three Origins Connate Dao Realm, turning them into the Tai Yi Connate Dao Realm. "
A Primordial Chaos Lotus appeared above his head and Slowly entered Taiyi's body. Taiyi looked inside and saw Daoist Qing Lian sitting in the Primordial Chaos Lotus. Inextinguishable Spirit Light surged around him and fused with his Three Origins Connate Inextinguishable Spirit Light. As expected, it suppressed the Nirvanic Aura in his body and prevented the Three Origins Connate Dao from continuing to decay.
Moreover, Daoist Qing Lian's chanting was mysterious and unfathomable. It had indeed benefited him greatly.
Qing Lian said, "Tai Yi Connate is not inferior to Tai Yi Connate. You have cultivated Tai Yi Connate to the highest realm and with my Inextinguishable Spirit Light protecting you, the Nirvanic Tribulation in your body won't be able to harm you. However, this is only to protect you from the Nirvanic Tribulation. When your Nirvanic Tribulation erupts, there will be a killing tribulation. This tribulation will start with Daoist Nihilus. When it erupts, Daoist Nihilus will follow the Nirvanic Tribulation and appear in your body to snatch your Dao Fruit and destroy your soul. "
Taiyi's heart shook as he cried out, "Daoist Terminator has appeared in my body?"
Immortal Venerable Green Lotus nodded and said, "Daoist Terminus is compatible with the Great Dao of Nirvana. As long as the tribulation erupts in your body, he will appear in your body and destroy you. It is the hardest to defend against. But don't worry, this Daoist Terminator is just a Dao Body. The Dao Body I left in your body will help you kill Daoist Terminator's Dao Body and help you go through the tribulation. "
Tai Yi was completely impressed.
If he were to undergo the tribulation by himself, he would definitely be able to pass the first day but not the fifteenth. He would either die in the Nirvana Tribulation or be turned into ashes by Daoist Nirvana. Now that he had Green Lotus Immortal Venerable's help, this tribulation could be averted.
"Master, Celestial Lord Yuanshi ruined your opportunity to prove your Dao to Yuanshi. Can Master cultivate it back?"
Immortal Venerable Green Lotus chuckled and said: "He ruined my opportunity to vindicate my Dao, he can only stop me for a while, he can't stop me completely. Within five hundred million years, I will definitely attain Yuanshi and succeed in proving my Dao with treasures! When that time comes, no one will be my match. Not to mention him, even Daoist Terminator will be turned into ashes by me! What innate indestructibility? In front of Yuanshi's treasures, they are all just illusions! "
Tai Yi retreated.
"There are already 255 Dao Lords in the world, including Celestial Venerables. This is the limit that the Immortal Dao Era can endure. Dao Lords must die for Heavenly Monarchs to become Dao Lords."
Immortal Venerable Green Lotus Immortal Venerable was silent for a moment. Three flowers appeared above her head, and three Daoists of Green Lotus walked down. They opened up a heaven outside the palace and began to preach.
"In the future, if signs of the Nirvana Tribulation appear in the Immortal Dao, there will definitely be a calamity. That is why gathering Heavenly Monarchs who can prove their Dao will give us an advantage in that calamity!"
On the other hand, Jiangnan would hold a sermon every five million years in the Allheaven, and it caused the Immortal Monarchs, Heavenly Monarchs, and Daolords in the world to go listen to the sermon.
Daoist Daokong and Di Lin would also preach from time to time.
However, an uneasy phenomenon appeared. Even though the four Celestial Venerables were the most intelligent in the world, and even in the prehistoric era, there were very few experts like them. However, after preaching for so long, there were still so many Dao Lords in the world. From nine hundred million years ago until now, only Xi Yingqing had proven his Dao. No one else had proven their Dao.
The number of Daolords remained at 255.
Originally, there were 256, but Daoist Lord Cloven Wing was killed by a beam of fire when a calamity befell him, reducing the number to 255. Later on, when Maha was about to prove his Dao, he was killed by another beam of fire, and he was unable to surpass the 255.
There were forty-eight Dao Lords under Daoist Kong's command. Aside from Jiang Xue, Yun Lian, Daoist Hong, Daoist Jun, Ji Du, Paramita, Goddess of Ice Lotus, Myriad Curses, Li Hua, Saint Devil, Rong Ghoul, and Xi Yingqing, there were also some new Dao Lords. There were also twelve of them. They were either disciples of Hong, Jun, or Ji Du, or Heavenly Monarchs who had come to the Great Luo Tian to verify their Dao. There were twenty-four of them.
However, this was just the forces on the surface. There were sixteen Dao Lords in Heaven Gate under Jiang Xue's control. Aside from Ding Guang and Ling Zhuzi, there were also five Dao Lords from the Devil World and two Dao Lords from the Immortal World.
Thus, there were more Dao Lords in Jiang Nan's faction than Daoist Kong's. There were fifty of them.
Aside from Qing Lian, Di Lin, Daoist Kong, and Jiang Nan, there were 153 Dao Lords. Aside from Ascetic Sect Master and Chi Zun, most of them were under Immortal Qing Lian. Even Wuxie of Heaven Wasteland had joined Immortal Qing Lian.
Immortal Qing Lian had 120 Dao Lords under her command. There were Taiyi, Jade Capital, Heaven Prime, and other factions under her. There were many powerful cultivators, and there were countless Heavenly Monarchs.
Di Lin only had Nature, Taizhen, Xuandu, and some new Dao Lords. There were thirty-one of them.
There were many Dao Lords who had their own Heavens. Some called themselves Celestial Emperors or Demon Emperors. There were no major battles, but there were constant minor ones. There were also grudges between them. For example, Yun Lian and Ding Guang belonged to the same faction, but the Celestial Dynasties often fought against each other. As for Tian Ling and Yun Lian, one belonged to Immortal Qing Lian's faction, while the other belonged to the Great Luo Tian faction. They were very close to each other and called each other sisters.
The development of the Celestial and Demon Universes was extremely shocking. The two worlds continued to expand, and many Heavenly Monarchs appeared. There were nearly ten thousand Heavenly Monarchs in the two universes, but no one could become a Dao Lord.
This was the era when the Immortal World was at its most prosperous. Some of the Daolords had put their lives on the line to refine connate treasures. Some had succeeded, while others had failed. They had paid with their lives, and although they had succeeded in refining connate treasures, they had also lost their lives.
After a Dao Lord died, another Heavenly Monarch would become a Dao Lord, so the number of Dao Lords remained at 255.
Thus, some people guessed that 255 was the limit of the number of Dao Lords the Celestial Dao Era could bear. To become a Dao Lord, one of these 255 Dao Lords had to die, or they would not be able to do so.
It was because there were too many Dao Lords in the Celestial Dao Universe. They suppressed the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth and made it submit to them. Even if the other Heavenly Monarchs had enough resources, it would be much more difficult to make the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth submit to them!
This was just a guess, and no one had verified its veracity. After all, Dao Lords were too powerful. Even if hundreds of Heavenly Monarchs joined forces, they might not be able to kill one.
However, there were Heavenly Monarchs who tried to kill a Dao Lord, but they often failed and died. Thus, the Heavenly Monarchs could only hope that the Dao Lord would pay with his life while refining connate treasures.
What made the Heavenly Monarchs happy was that over the past few hundred million years, more than ten Dao Lords had lost their lives while refining connate treasures. Thus, more than ten Heavenly Monarchs had become Dao Lords in the Celestial Dao Era.
"If only a few more Dao Lords could die!" It was said that some Heavenly Monarchs set up their own altars and prayed day and night.
On this day, the Celestial World was shaken. In Emperor Qilin's palace, the World Tree slowly rose. Even Emperor Qilin's Dao Fruit shone brightly. The World Tree took root in the auspicious clouds, emanating a majestic aura that could suppress the Celestial World and Demon World.
Countless Daos rumbled. Even the Dao Lords of the Celestial World and Demon World felt the Daolord level Daos in their bodies rumble and submit to Emperor Qilin's palace!
Among the Venerable Sovereigns, Di Lin was one step ahead of everyone else. He cultivated to the consummate level of Dao Lord and proved his Dao with his Primordial Divinity and Dao Fruit. His Dao became one with the universe and became one with the Era of the Immortal Dao. His Primordial Divinity proved three times and entered a whole new realm!
On the same day, the Great Luo Tian's Great Yuanshi's Great Luo Tian shook. The Connate Reed shook, millions of rays of light burst forth, and auspicious lights hung down. The scene was astonishing, vaguely rivaling Emperor Qilin's Dao.
No one knew what realm that ancient Luo Tian existence had reached, but judging from the Great Luo Tian's aura, it wasn't much weaker than Emperor Qilin's Dao.
A few million years later, the Primordial Chaos in Immortal Sovereign Qinglian's palace trembled. A Primordial Chaos Lotus manifested a myriad of phenomena in the universe, proving three times. Immortal Sovereign Qinglian proved his Dao with his body, his spirit, and his treasures!
The 1.4 billion year period was approaching, and the Primordial Chaos Ancient Gods were extremely weak. They could only rely on the primordial chaos to give birth, and not a single new ancient god had been born in the last 1.4 billion years.
The Primordial Chaos Ancient Gods were already extinct. Hundreds of millions of ancient gods had died, and only the Heavenly Monarchs and Daolords remained alive.
The Nirvana Calamity of the Ancient God Era had arrived, and there were still 1.4 billion years left.
After proving three times with the Primordial Chaos, Immortal Sovereign Qinglian didn't act immediately. Instead, he waited quietly for the middle of the Immortal Dao Era to arrive.
There were only two million years left before the Immortal Dao Era welcomed its 800 millionth birthday. According to previous eras, 800 million years was the peak of the Immortal Dao Era, when it would decline.
At this time, both Daoist Terminus and Heavenly Venerate Limitless were waiting for this day, waiting for the signs of the Immortal Dao Era turning into nirvana.
Emperor Qilin was also waiting quietly for this day to verify his and Immortal Sovereign Qinglian's guesses.
Time passed quickly. Two million years passed in the blink of an eye for such existences. By the time the Immortal Dao Era's 800,000,000 year old birthday arrived, the Immortal and Demon Realms remained calm. There were no signs of the Immortal and Demon Realms turning from prosperity to decline.
Heavenly Venerates sensed carefully, but they couldn't sense any aura of nirvana.
The Daolords in the world also sensed it, but they couldn't sense anything wrong either.
Another million years passed, but the aura of nirvana from the Immortal Dao Era didn't appear. All the ancient existences relaxed.
