Living in the Doomsday and Becoming an Immortal Alone-Chapter 1229 - 561: The Storm Has Yet to Subside

Wang Jixuan lowered his head to receive his orders.

In a daze, he understood something and asked, "Why then, were there the Eight Great Immortal Palaces?"

"The result of Heavenly Dao's forcible intervention."

Nine Spirits Sword Venerable slightly shook his head, calmly and powerfully narrating:

"The symbolic event marking the end of the ancient epoch was the battle where eight ancient Daluo Golden Immortals of the Demon Clan fell, and the Human Race paid the price with three Daluo Golden Immortals being killed.

"After completely defeating the Demon Clan, this world was supposed to be governed by our Human Race, but that battle injured the essence of the world.

"The will of Heavenly Dao awakened and then descended Purple Sky Divine Thunder upon the living beings, meant to destroy the world. At that time, it was various Daluo Golden Immortals who stepped forward to stabilize Heavenly Dao, but also, as a result, the conditions proposed by Heavenly Dao were accepted by all sides.

"The formation of the Eight Great Immortal Palaces was set at that time.

"The army of the Human Race had to be divided into three factions, which resulted in the establishment of the Sword God Palace, Gun God Palace, and God Slaughter Palace.

"Sword God Palace occupies the northern position of the world, where the Immortal Realm's good fortune is suppressed by Sword God Palace.

"Gun God Palace is at the western position, where the sharpness of the world is controlled by Gun God Palace.

"God Slaughter Palace is located in the southwestern position, responsible for maintaining the Human Race's tradition of Demon Soldiers. God Slaughter Palace is also the strongest of the three factions of the Human Race, with a large number considered the main force of the Human Race."

Wang Jixuan looked enlightened.

The white clouds had arrived above an Immortal Island.

The Immortal Island was enveloped by Formation, within which cities and lakes could be seen, its area even more vast than his Second Base.

A large number of mortals and cultivators lived here, overall the various places remained fairly peaceful, though scenes of fighting were also visible.

There are a total of thirty-seven such Immortal Islands here.

The central Immortal Island naturally housed the headquarters of Sword God Palace.

Sword God Palace has only eight hundred Sword Cultivators, which surprised Master Wang quite a bit.

Nine Spirits Sword Venerable spoke again about the hatred between the Human Race and Demon Clan, introducing the distribution and general strength of Feather God Palace, Beast God Palace, and Night God Palace, these three Demon Clan forces.

Currently, the Human Race still holds the advantage;

However, Heavenly Dao obviously stands on the side of the Demon Clan.

The Human Race lacks the opportunity to completely eliminate those veteran experts of the Demon Clan, and now internal differences are appearing within the Human Race.

Heavenly Dao's strategy.

Wang Jixuan estimated that the consciousness activated during the ancient war's curtain fall was undoubtedly Heavenly Dao's own consciousness, not the parasite body Po Luo.

Nine Spirits Sword Venerable was in good spirits, and smilingly asked at this moment, "Is there any common knowledge you're still unclear about? As your teacher, I will answer it for you."

"Yes," Wang Jixuan bowed and asked, "Disciple always hears people mention Taiyin Golden Immortal, but after arriving in the Immortal Realm, few people talk about the term Taiyin. Why is that?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚

Nine Spirits Sword Venerable laughed, "The difference between Taiyin Golden Immortal and Golden Immortal? Most of the time, there's no difference; it's just a nickname of sorts. There used to be this realm, but this realm's cultivators rarely appear anymore."

"Why?"

"It's simple, Taiyin signifies fulfillment, complete transparency, the Great Path forming inherently, and achieving longevity, hence called Taiyin Golden Immortal. In ancient times, Taiyin Golden Immortal referred to as the fulfilled Golden Immortal.

"One Great Path has Daluo Golden Immortals, but later generations accomplished fulfillment, yet cannot advance to Daluo.

"Nowadays, the number of Daluos in this world falls far short compared to ancient times, as long as one can comprehend, one can almost advance, so true Taiyin Golden Immortals won't exist anymore.

"Nowadays, few use this term, mostly it's mentioned only when referring simultaneously to the realms of Daluo Golden Immortal and Taiyin Golden Immortal, substituting it typically with Golden Immortal."

"And you, teacher?"

Wang Jixuan asked with a smile:

"Are you fulfilled now, teacher?"

"The Great Path of Artifacts is different from the Natural Dao, the Great Path of Artifacts divides into hundreds, Sword Dao ranks the first in the Great Path of Artifacts."

Sword Nine's eyes held a touch of sentiment as he spoke to this point:

"Your teacher lacks one point... For tens of thousands of years I've pursued, yet still don't know what exactly that point is.

"Your grandmaster mentioned before passing peacefully that I lack one eye.

"I estimate, I will still have to search for tens of thousands of years."

Wang Jixuan said with a smile, "Teacher is sure to succeed."

"Let's hope so."

Sword Nine slowly rose:

"Come, I'll take you to meet a few elders, Sword God Palace's rules are not many, respecting the teacher and venerating the Tao is enough."

Wang Jixuan said, "Teacher, disciple has a friend buried by Senior Bai Gu at the ancient battlefield."

"If it's a setup by the Moon God Palace Master, then you don't need to do much, throughout history only he comprehended Time, and every step you take now is probably within his calculations."

Sword Nine reminded:

"Even now, even Daluo Golden Immortal of my Sword God Palace does not know what the Moon God Palace Master intends to do.

"By the way, disciple, what do you want to do?"

Wang Jixuan seriously replied, "Defy Heavenly Dao."

"Oh? Still a rather high ambition."

Sword Nine smiled contentedly, carried Wang Jixuan to descend towards the less populated Immortal Island.

...

Meanwhile.

In the Thousand Generation Alliance's residence, at the place of Alliance Hierarch Murong Zhengyi, a roar resembling a lion's cry spread throughout the valley.

"How can you not dare to fight Nine Spirits Sword Venerable!"

Han Xiao sat on the ground, aggrieved, wanting to explain but couldn't find words for a moment.

His grandmaster, a Third Grade Golden Immortal, and for tens of thousands of years the chief steward in the clan, scolded him, possessing remarkable influence.

But...

Is Sword God Palace someone Thousand Generation Alliance can provoke?

Sword God Palace is renowned as the head of the Eight Great Immortal Palaces, within which resides ancient human clan experts, like monsters such as Nine Spirits Sword Venerable, Sword God Palace has at least eight of them!

The Thousand Generation Alliance ultimately doesn't have deep enough foundations, they can wrestle with Dark Sect or Tianluo, but dealing with Feather God Palace, remnants of the Ancient Demon Clan, requires more caution.

Han Xiao slightly turned his head, looking at his master and senior uncle.

These two 'upstarts' Golden Immortals at this moment observed nose, listened to the heart, obediently compliant.

The old Alliance Leader on the main seat twirled his beard, contemplating carefully.

"Everyone need not rush, Lord has joined Sword God Palace, this happens to be a great thing."

In the back, more than forty elders pondered individually.

The dozen or so who appeared last time were already out of seclusion early upon learning Wang Jixuan's news; now these forty elders represent the real foundation of Thousand Generation Alliance.

Several highly esteemed elders began speaking:

"Certainly an advantage, because if Heavenly Dao applies full pressure, we can't surely protect Lord, but Sword God Palace is different, the Human Race's Three Immortal Palaces are inherently vying with Heavenly Dao."

"Then the reason Sword Nine accepted Lord as a disciple is likely related to this matter?"

"Possible, it's said Nine Spirits Sword Venerable is exceedingly proud, never received disciples throughout his life, not even half a named disciple, unexpectedly accepted Lord as a disciple."

Han Xiao blinked.

Lord?

What on earth is happening here?

What exactly is going on with Wang Jixuan? When first encountered in the Immortal Forbidden Land, he was just a cultivator around Combined Tribulation, his only bright spot was his exceptional talent for Artifact Refining, managing to produce spiritual cultivation and core circuits, while his greatest value was helping Tianluo fill manpower in the Lower Realm...

Right, how long has it been, Wang Jixuan already reached Heavenly Immortal?

Moon God Palace Master, Time Dao, Lord...

"Did Wang Jixuan once cultivate in the past relying on Time Dao?"

Han Xiao shouted impulsively.

Glares of various degrees fell upon him, each more severe than the last.

"Impudent! Speaking Lord's name directly!"

"Whose disciple is this? Drag out and whip! Smear the whip with vegetable oil from a thousand years ago!"

Han Xiao trembled, hurriedly pleaded for mercy.

Luckily the old Alliance Leader spoke, allowing Han Xiao to redeem himself, saving him from suffering of flesh.

The old Alliance Leader slowly stood, muttering:

"Sixty thousand years... we now have our foothold in the Immortal Realm, generations of descendants unknown, and all this originated from Lord's rescue back then.

"At this moment, Thousand Generation Alliance must also choose a side, merely fence-sitting would attract criticism from all sides.

"This is a heaven-sent opportunity!

"Notify each family, prepare gifts, select three hundred beauties, six thousand Immortal Soldiers as guards, we old bones shall contribute three or four percent, ensure we aren't found out, and head to Sword God Palace to congratulate Lord!"

The elders immediately grew excited, taking a step forward collectively.

It seemed all wanted to go together.

Outside the door, a younger Golden Immortal hurried in, shouting:

"Alliance Leader! Feather God Palace encountered calamities, Feather God Palace Master returned from outside the sky, now gathered numerous experts, heading straight to Sword God Palace! Claims to settle scores with the Mechanical Demon!"

Old Alliance Leader Murong Zhengyi slightly frowned, those old eyes suddenly became incomparably fierce.
