In the end, the Immortal Coronation Ceremony ended with the eight Immortal Realm cultivators being conferred the title.
Although the various orthodoxies and families sacrificed many treasures, they were unable to trigger the Immortal Investiture Board.
On the other hand, those existences that were conferred the Immortal Bestowment Roll were extremely excited. Being supported by the incense of the Divine Kingdom and being able to obtain the might of the Immortal Dao, this was simply an enormous opportunity that allowed one to transform from a mortal into an Immortal and ascend to Immortality in a single step.
Their silhouettes were like blurry deities that were reflected on the Immortal Investiture Board. They were surrounded by Immortal Light, sacred and powerful, and could easily look down on the other races.
However, they knelt respectfully in front of Gu Changge, Yue Mingkong, and the others, knowing full well who had given them all this.
Moreover, because a strand of his True Soul was entrusted to the Immortal Investiture Board, in the eyes of these conferred cultivators, Gu Changge was no different from the Lord of Heaven and Earth in ancient times, ruling over all Immortals.
Although they already had the power of the Immortal Dao, they were no different from ants in Gu Changge's eyes.
Many forces who had missed out on this opportunity felt deeply pained and regretful. They knew that if they wanted to touch the Immortal Sealing Board again after the Celestial Investiture Ceremony ended, the price they would have to pay would not be so simple.
Even the imperishable orthodoxies might not be able to get an Immortal Investiture Board even if they went bankrupt and mobilized the power of their entire clan.
Towards the end of the ceremony, many Immortal Artifacts were thrown into the altar, but there was no reaction at all. The Divine Monument did not respond, and the Immortal Investiture Board did not shine.
The orthodoxies who were the first to show their loyalty were secretly relieved that they were the first to make the sacrifice. Otherwise, it would be extremely difficult to get an Immortal Investiture Board.
Of course, Gu Changge still gave them a chance. Every hundred years, the Immortal Investiture Board would appear again to confer titles.
During these hundred years, each orthodoxy could prepare for the next Immortal Coronation Ceremony. Compared to cultivating to become an Immortal and going through countless difficulties, they might not be able to reach this step in the end.
After entering the Immortal Investiture Board, they would be conferred with the power of the Immortal Dao and enjoy an endless life.
This was an unimaginable temptation to all races, orthodoxies, and even all living beings in the myriad of worlds. No one was spared from it.
Even after the incident, many powerful figures still appeared outside the palace, requesting to see Gu Changge. They wanted to obtain an Immortal Bestowment Medallion, no matter the price.
They also yearned to become immortals. Since ancient times, even if they used all kinds of secret and forbidden techniques to prolong their lifespans, there would still be a day when they would dry up.
In this era, Gu Changge was in charge of the Divine Nation. Even the evil immortals who appeared in the river of time were annihilated with a wave of his hand.
Which of these existences, whose lifespans had been exhausted, would dare to start a dark rebellion?
However, Gu Changge did not care about the desire of these people. He directly said that the next Immortal Coronation Ceremony would be held in a hundred years.
If they wanted to be conferred a title, they would have to find something suitable to trigger the Heavenly Stele and be recognized by the Immortal Investiture Board within a hundred years.
The myriad of worlds was incomparably vast, and there were many areas that had not been explored. There were definitely many ancient items or immortal treasures buried in the chaos in those areas.
If these people wanted to obtain an Immortal Bestowment Medallion, they would have to think of ways to risk their lives and go to those places to search for mysterious items.
Ordinary cultivation methods and Divine Powers could no longer be recognized by the Heavenly Stele.
After the ceremony ended, this matter undoubtedly shook the heavens. Almost all the powerhouses and leaders of the various races and forces gathered in the square that day.
However, the heavens were so vast that many races and forces did not come personally, let alone witness this grand ceremony.
Of course, there were still news about this matter spreading in various places. Some images were also recorded in Shadow Stones and ancient books for future generations to see.
During this period, Divine Master Temples rose from the ground everywhere. Many cultivators and living beings spontaneously built temples for Gu Changge. Incense was burned all day long, and many cultivators and living beings went to worship every day.
The sound of worship and prayers could be heard everywhere in the heavens. Not long after the calamity of Kun Ji passed, the heavens regained their former prosperity and peace. The various races multiplied and grew stronger.
After the Immortal Investiture Ceremony ended, the Heavenly Dao Steles rose from the ground in various ancient holy cities. They were simple and ancient, and were made of incredible materials.
Starting from the Physical Body Realm, the strongest Heaven's Prides of the same realm would be recognized by the Heavenly Stele if they were listed on this stele.
Ordinary cultivators would feel a strong and terrifying pressure before they even got close. It was so strong that their legs were bent and their bodies were about to explode.
Facing the Heavenly Dao Stele was like facing an ancient True God. Even Supremacy Realm cultivators would feel fear and could only look from afar. They did not dare to get close.
Once the Heavenly Dao Stele appeared, it immediately caused a terrifying sensation in the myriad of worlds.
This was a feat that was even more shocking than the Immortal Investiture Board.
After all, it was a list of the strongest Heaven's Prides since ancient times. How long had it been?
No one could say for sure. Even those who had become Immortals did not dare to say that they knew all the secrets.
However, after Gu Changge established the Divine Nation, he first set up the Immortal Investiture Board, breaking the rules of cultivation. Then, he listed the strongest Heaven's Prides since ancient times and wanted to set up the Heavenly Dao Stele.
Many forces and orthodoxies realized that Gu Changge's actions were very ambitious. He was probably planning to completely eliminate the authority of the Heavenly Dao.
If he really succeeded, then the Myriad Realms would become his back garden.
However, for the younger generation, this was an unimaginable opportunity. Not only could they clearly know the gap between them and the strongest Heaven's Prides since ancient times.
Moreover, if they could enter the Heavenly Dao Stele, they could also obtain a supreme opportunity that could improve their cultivation further.
However, from the current situation, the Heavenly Dao Stele had only just appeared in its embryonic form. It had not really evolved into its true form, let alone listing all the Heaven's Prides since ancient times.
Gu Changge's actions were equivalent to throwing a premonition to all living beings.
This also made them understand that in the near future, the Heavenly Dao Stele would appear in the myriad of worlds, just like the Immortal Investiture Board, and cause a huge change.
Besides that, Gu Changge also had plans for the Virtual Realm.
He personally created a Dao Law Dharma Body and commanded a mighty army to wipe out the remnants of the Great Worlds in the depths of various universes since the Forbidden Era.
Then, he took the source of those remnants of the Great Worlds and melted them into a cauldron. He planned to sacrifice them to create the Virtual Realm and guide the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the souls of the dead, the spirits of the dead, and the cycle of life.
The Virtual Realm corresponded to the Netherworld and the Nine Nether Hell in legends. If the Virtual Realm was created, it would definitely affect the operation of the laws of heaven and earth.
This was because since ancient times, the operation of heaven and earth was self-contained. Whether the reincarnation of all living beings really existed was another matter.
However, Gu Changge's actions were equivalent to snatching the authority of the Heavenly Dao and incorporating his thoughts into the operation of the universe.
When the Virtual Realm completely replaced the legendary Nine Nether Hell, then the cycle of life and death in the world would actually be controlled by Gu Changge's thoughts.
Even if his lifespan dried up and his life was exhausted, he would have a way to let him enter the cycle of reincarnation and live another life, or even gain eternal life.
However, to do so, he might have to pay an unimaginable price.
Therefore, the birth of the Virtual Realm was too difficult. In Gu Changge's opinion, the difficulty was no different from reestablishing the Immortal Domain and dividing the chaos again.
Just the sacrifice of the source of the Great Worlds had encountered an unprecedented amount of trouble.
"If the Virtual Realm is created, the Six Paths of Reincarnation, the Yellow Springs, and the Nine Nether Hell must also be included …"
"This is a huge project that can't be completed in a short period of time."
Gu Changge's original body sat cross-legged at the end of the boundless void. In front of him was a dazzling divine light, and a hazy radiance spread out and sprinkled down.
In the surroundings, fist-sized, multicolored fragments of the Ancient World's Origin were floating up and down.
He was smelting these sources in an attempt to sacrifice the Virtual Realm. However, during this process, there was no so-called nurturing of merit between heaven and earth.
There were also no signs of birth. Instead, several bolts of chaotic true lightning struck down in his direction.
The Six Paths of Reincarnation were within the operation of the Heavenly Dao. Gu Changge's current actions were undoubtedly trying to completely eliminate the will of the Heavenly Dao.
He wasn't surprised that he would suffer such a backlash. However, he had a premonition that something was wrong.
"This is too difficult. With my current strength, if I forcefully push it, I'm afraid that my body will split open …"
Gu Changge noticed that a crack had appeared in the space between his eyebrows without him noticing.
Following that, a crack also appeared on the spell body that was reflected in the Heavenly Dao.
In the Divine Leader Temple, incense lingered. Many cultivators and living beings were worshipping the Divine Leader statue. However, when they suddenly saw a crack appear on it, they were instantly shocked.
However, that crack only appeared for a moment before it healed. Many people thought that it was an illusion.
In the depths of the void, Gu Changge collected the source of the Ancient World that was being sacrificed. The crack between his eyebrows also slowly healed and disappeared in an instant.
However, he fell into deep thought.
This kind of backlash was inconceivable. Even he didn't notice it, and it happened just like that. There was no trace of warning.
If this continued, his spell body would probably shatter.
"Is the time not right yet, or is this heaven-defying action unbearable for my current cultivation?"
Gu Changge pondered. His spirit was very powerful and far exceeded his current strength. However, his current physical body had not experienced the true baptism of the Immortal Tribulation. It was inevitable that it would cause changes.
After thinking about this, Gu Changge decided to put this matter aside for the time being.
During this period of time, he had accumulated enough. It was time to receive the true descent of the Immortal Domain and allow himself to enter the Flawless Immortal Realm.
And just as Gu Changge was about to receive the descent of the Immortal Domain and connect with the Upper Realm.
4.3 Rumble!
In the boundless World Sea, shocking waves suddenly appeared. With a splash, the layers of ancient realms in front of them all collapsed and broke, turning into fine powder that filled the sky.
In this boundless World Sea, there were blurry ships crossing. However, the storm of the Great Path here was extremely terrifying. Even the true thunder that struck down had terrifying destructive power.
The world was vast, and the fog was heavy. Wisps after wisps of fog lingered everywhere. One could see ancient realms and great universes rising and falling. And at the place where the sky and earth touched, a layer of blurry mirror appeared.
Outside the mirror, there were ancient realms and great universes rising and falling. They overlapped with each other as if they were coexisting.
However, at that moment, the world inside the mirror and outside the mirror were slowly coming into contact with each other, and some unknown and strange changes were happening. The places where they came into contact with each other collapsed, disintegrated, and merged …
At the instant they collapsed, the world barrier disappeared, and at the moment they merged, a new life was born. It was incomparably mysterious and mysterious.
All of this seemed to be happening very slowly, but it was happening in an orderly manner. They collided with each other and then melted.
"The birth of the Sole True World will be soon, really soon …"
On the blurry ships, there were whispers of ancient gods. There were also indifferent gazes of innate gods watching them, ancient and cold.
