...
The Order of the Heavenly Emperor. It was an order that could only be given out by the Great Heavenly Venerate, which was otherwise known as the Heavenly Emperor.
He had absolute control over the Heavenly Court. He listened to no one, and everyone had to follow his order.
The content of the order was simple. It stated that Jiang Ming had contributed a lot to the Heavenly Court by exposing and taking down the Northern Emperor Kunpeng who tried to rebel against the Heavenly Court. Not only that, but he was powerful enough, so he was picked as the first candidate to be the next Northern Emperor. However, he still needed to be observed for another 100 years.
The heavenly decree was large, and it spanned over 3,000 miles. The Dao inscription on it was clear and it was filled with Dao Fluctuation. The content spread over the entire Infinite Realms Battlefield and to various parts of the Heavenly Realms.
This was the terrifying aspect of the heavenly decree.
Afterward, the heavenly decree turned into a scroll and landed on Jiang Ming’s palm.
“This…” Jiang Ming frowned.
He did not know why but he instinctively disliked the content of the heavenly decree, and he hesitated as he looked at the heavenly decree that fell before him.
He was not sure if he should accept it or not. After all, it was the heavenly decree. Could he reject it?
Just when he was hesitating, Mountain Master Tian Yuan’s voice rang out in his mind. “Take it! You can’t reject the order of the Great Heavenly Venerate. Accept it first, and we’ll then play by ear.”
Jiang Ming then raised both hands and took the heavenly decree. His hands fell and he felt like he was holding a divine mountain.
With a flick of his mind, he flipped his palm and stored the heavenly decree into the Human Paths Record. Before he could check it out, another two heavenly decrees descended from the sky.
One of them told them to investigate the Abyss, while another stated the opening of the Great Abyss Trial.
After that, the two heavenly decrees turned into dots of golden light and merged into the four directions of the sky, spreading the news out rapidly.
“Investigate the Abyss? The opening of the Great Abyss Trial? Things are going to get out of hand!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan said as his face set in a serious expression. He nodded into the distance and tugged at Jiang Ming.
“Let’s go back!”
Jiang Ming nodded.
He was exhausted from the battles, and he felt it was safer for him to go back right now.
As for other people, he did not care about them.
Both of them heaved out a sigh of relief after entering the Tianyuan Realm.
“Fortunately, he came. Otherwise, we might be in danger!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan said, “This is truly a special place. Not only do the demons crave it, but the other forces want to take a peek as well. Even the heavenly decree could hardly stop them.”
“Brother, who are you talking about?” Jiang Ming asked.
“Wan Lian Great Monarch. The Infinite Alchemy Pavilion in the human world is established by his descendants. You can count it as his legacy!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan said, “It’s him who came just now.
“What?” Jiang Ming exclaimed, “I’m the one who wiped out his descendants. If he finds out, will he come after me.”
“Haha!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan laughed, “Rest assured. He’s not a petty minded person. He cares about the world more than his own descendants. He wouldn’t mind about them as long as they don’t go around and bully other people. For him, they should consider themselves lucky for getting his legacy. He wants them to fare for themselves, and he would never protect them.”
Jiang Ming nodded.
He felt that Mountain Master Tian Yuan did not tell him everything, but now was not the right time to press on the matter.
In the blink of an eye, they had arrived at Chuyang Peak.
“Senior brother!” Linglong threw herself into Jiang Ming’s arms. “I’m worried sick about you!”
When she saw Jiang Ming was injured from his fight against Kunpeng and Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate, she wanted to go forward and assist him. However, she was too weak, and she might only cause him trouble than help him, so she held herself back.
The feeling was unbearable and it felt like there were millions of ants gnawing at her heart. She felt like history had repeated itself again.
Her senior brother was standing in front of her to protect her, but there was nothing she could do.
‘I’m still so weak and useless even though I’ve been reborn once.’
Linglong’s heart was dripping blood and she swore to herself that she had to work harder in her cultivation so that she could fight beside Jiang Ming next time.
“Don’t worry. I’m fine!” Jiang Ming rubbed her head.
It was just that after he relaxed, a surge of lethargy and a pang of pain assaulted him. His face turned pale and cold sweats began to ooze out of his forehead.
“Senior brother!” Linglong shouted.
“That’s the aftermath of using those Dao Vessels like bombs,” Moutain Master Tian Yuan said, “You’re wired tight during the war, so you didn’t feel anything. Now that you’ve relaxed, you can’t stop all the pains from coming back to you!”
Mountain Master Tian Yuan’s complexion was pale as well.
“Don’t worry! I’ll be fine!” Jiang Ming forced a smile on his face.
He lifted his head. The sky was dark, and the stars were blinking.
Even if they were in the Infinite Realms Battlefield, even if it was an endless flood of nothingness outside, they could still see stars and moon here. Obviously, there was a power that they couldn’t see through acting in this area.
“You will be fine? Look at you! You can barely stand! Come, senior brother! Let me heal you!” Linglong said as she pulled her into his room.
Mountain Master Tian Yuan’s eyebrows frowned in confusion.
‘Why does he still need his junior sister around him when he’s healing?’
Jiang Ming patted Linglong’s hand and looked around. He grabbed something in the air, and a house rose from the ground in the southwest of the courtyard. Then, he turned to Mountain Master Tian Yuan and said, “How about you rest and heal in that house over there, brother? We’ll talk after we’ve recovered.”
“Okay!” Mountain Master Tian Yuan nodded. “I have some pills with me. Do you need one?”
“Thank you, brother, but you can keep them for yourself. It isn’t a serious injury after all.”
“Okay. Give me a head up if you need my help!”
Mountain Master Tian Yuan leaped into the air and landed in the courtyard not far away. He sat in a lotus position and began healing his wound. He did not set up a formation either.
Jiang Ming came to the kitchen and quickly whipped up two bowls of congee.
Linglong then carried the congee to the table.
She had long since noticed that something wasn’t right. No matter what happened, her senior brother would definitely cook one time a day. Even though she had a lot of questions in her mind, she never asked him anything.
“Senior brother, lie down. I’ll feed you the food!” Linglong said as she pushed Jiang Ming on the chair.
She then picked a bowl of congee, blew it a little, and put the scoop near Jiang Ming’s lips.
He took it and laughed, “As expected of me. The congee is tasty, but I think it’ll be even tastier if you could feed me with your mouth.”
“You…” Linglong rolled her eyes at Jiang Ming. That being said, she still did as he said and fed him the congee with her mouth.
Jiang Ming’s eyes glowed.
“This is the best!” Jiang Ming exclaimed as he gave Linglong a thumbs up.
Linglong rolled her eyes at Jiang Ming again and said exasperatingly, “Do you need me to call the remaining nine of them to come and feed you?”
“No, no, no. I’ll die!”
They finished the bowl of congee very soon.
After a short while, he received a notification from the system.
[Ding! Congratulations to host Jiang Ming for enjoying a great breakfast in a weakened state. You have been awarded with a Ten Soul Refining Sacred Heart Pill!]
Jiang Ming’s eyes lit up with excitement after he read through the description for the pill.
[Ten Soul Refining Sacred Heart Pill: It’s a supreme pill of wondrous effect. After taking it, it’ll greatly boost one’s soul and willpower, and eliminate all negative states of the soul. Restriction: Can be taken by a Quasi-Sage or below.]
‘This is just what I need!’ Jiang Ming said inwardly.
However, before he could do anything, Linglong had scooped him up from the chair. “Senior brother, let’s go back inside. The Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Heart Bed can heal your injuries, and ten of us will heal you together!”
“Put me down, Linglong! I’m a man! How can you carry me like this?!” Jiang Ming said as he jumped down from Linglong’s arms.
Linglong rolled her eyes at him. “This isn’t the first time I carry you in my arms.”
After he had regained his balance, he looked around him. He noticed that there were a lot of experts observing them from the dark, but they did not dare to take any action.
This was something he had expected, so he did not care about them.
“I’m going to cultivate in the land of inheritance. I’ll be back in a while!” Jiang Ming said to his junior sister and pointed at Mountain Master Tian Yuan, “If anything happens, just protect yourself and let him go do the job.”
“Okay!” Linglong replied.
Jiang Ming did not say anything anymore and went into the Supreme Pagoda.
Linglong came to the balcony and stood with her back straight. She scanned her surroundings, and her gaze was sharp like an eagle.
The Heavenly Court.
The Great Heavenly Venerate did not leave his throne, and he was still looking at the World Observing Mirror.
He saw Jiang Ming nearly kill Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate, and how Evil-Hearted Demon Venerate appeared out of nowhere to save Ghost-Faced Demon Venerate. Then, when he saw Jiang Ming take the heavenly decree, he frowned.
“Where did he keep the heavenly decree? I can’t sense it anymore!” He said, “The heavenly decree communicates with the origin of the universe, and shares the same body as the Heavenly Court. It’s considered part of me, and he has severed the connection? Interesting…” The Great Heavenly Venerate’s eyes glowed.
The scene in the mirror changed to show the different parts in the Heavenly Realm. Many forces had already started to organize their disciples to form a large army to go into the Abyss.
Lord God Space.
Two beneficiaries survived and came back here. Both of them then spread the word about a Golden Immortal human who cultivated the World Dao had slain a Quasi-Sage Great Monarch.
In the Supreme Pagoda.
Jiang Ming came to the lotus platform on the enlightenment sea. He activated the time acceleration, and took the Ten Soul Refining Sacred Heart Pill to start healing himself.
