CHAPTER 399: CHAPTER 385: THE STRUGGLE FOR THE IMMORTAL ELIXIR

The gods joined forces to cast a curse.

No matter which Ancient God-ruled world the Immortal Emperor Jicao reached, the world would immediately enter a high-speed domain of five hundred years a day, accelerating aging and death.

This also affected the people everywhere, leading to emotions of anger and fear.

"Damn, the fury of heaven and people’s grievances, the fury of heaven and people’s grievances!!"

"Serves him right! The Celestial Emperor was unkind, angered the Heavens within the Chaos, resulting in the curse and the people’s suffering."

"Beg the plague god, do not flee to our world, don’t let our people be cursed!"

"Also, don’t come to our world!"

"Wait, kill him! If we can kill him, then the curse will disappear, and we can earn the forgiveness of the Ancient Gods!"

Just the Ancient God’s command caused unrest and swirling thoughts in the hearts of the realm’s commoners and fighters.

And at this moment.

Crash!

The whole world has already started to accelerate completely.

Feeling this, the Celestial Emperor Jicao, sitting on the dragon chair, rose and saw beyond the sky’s chaos, uncertain whether he was excited or annoyed, his hand slightly trembling:

"Good! What a celestial phenomena attack, it has already covered the Immortal Dynasty I rule. Even though I led my army to sweep through over eight thousand worlds, winning most of the game for the Immortal Dao, I end up in such a predicament!"

Once these words were spoken, there was an uproar of discussion in the court.

All present were loyal people.

"Your Majesty, you were too arrogant, offending the Ancient Gods of Immortal Dao is still bearable... but you offended all Ancient Gods, causing joint sanctions, and you can’t escape no matter which world you go to."

"What should we do?"

"Indeed, Your Majesty, you are strong, yet merely our sharp dagger. Ruling eight thousand worlds relies mostly on the millions of True Gods of Immortal Dao; they ultimately represent the civilization of Immortal Dao. If they all revolt, then??"

No matter how strong one’s power is, how can one fight against millions of strong figures?

Meanwhile, this Ancient God curse is simply terrifying, indeed unbelievable!

How vast is a single world?

Like the Thorny World before us, the Immortal Dao Imperial City ruling the Ten Thousand Realms, the supreme Middle Celestial Realm, with a diameter of roughly 18,000 kilometers, larger than Earth.

Yet as it’s hollow nested, the usable living area is tens of times larger than Earth’s continents!

Thus, it’s a vast land, an immense world.

Now, there are at least twelve thousand rooms, plus various empty outer corridors, indicating the vastness of the land area.

Of course, appearing so massive.

Claiming these rooms fill the entire Solar System is absurd... just one solar volume equals 1.3 million Earths.

Note, the cosmos is truly vast.

This small town of Crystal Wall rooms currently only fills 4% of a solar volume.

Compared to most Divine Level civilizations ruling various planets, Li Qing’s Crystal Wall rooms are truly intricate toys!

Since they’re not naturally occurring stars, but artificially constructed rooms.

Quality over quantity.

Currently, the whole Magic Cube now resembles a flying insect, orbiting a solar, acting as a Dyson Sphere, continuously absorbing energy.

Otherwise, whence comes the bright illumination of these Crystal Wall rooms?

Of course, it has only just broken through to Divine Upper not too long ago; this Crystal Wall Cube, now with Li Qing’s increasingly skilled tech team, is expanding geometrically.

Consume and expand continuously.

When its size matches the solar, it will contain 1 million rooms.

Once far beyond solar size, even accommodate, it can even fit the sun within, walking through the Chaos Corridor, lighting up one Crystal Series room after another.

Before our eyes.

This Middle Celestial Realm, the central world, palatial halls towering grandly, golden cranes and Immortal Beasts soaring, illuminating the entire cloud heights brightly.

Divine Level civilization is ultimately the strongest existence within the universe, around the world, who could surpass the cosmos?

"Summon the National Preceptor."

This current Immortal Emperor Jicao rose and spoke.

Soon, a handsome man, draped in court robes and holding a Witchcraft Staff, slowly emerged, "Your Majesty, why do you seek me?"

"Minis, you were the one who informed me of my origins, now what do you suggest?" Jicao said.

The mysterious National Preceptor before him, from the Immortal Dao Dynasty, secretly informed Jicao of his origins.

Without being a mole within the Immortal Dynasty or versed in Creation Science, it’s impossible to discover Jicao’s origins.

This was indeed very concealed.

Typically, Ji Cao might spend his entire life oblivious, working for Black Star, then breaking free only to be devoured.

Don’t be fooled by Black Star’s simple mind.

Yet, at times, the simplest schemes are the most effective.

Both effective and satisfying.

However, Black Star’s methods are ultimately straightforward and blunt, evident to those with insight, easily exploited, informing him would leave him baffled.

"Your Majesty, you already know your origins and background, what to do next, you have the answer in your heart, why ask me?" Minis smiled.

Ji Cao shook his head, "The war of the Ancient Gods, who knows how many long centuries it involves, through how many dynastic deepening, overlooking the long river of history, and my generation of Celestial Emperor is merely a pawn in one of their battles, blooming and withering."

"Even my unique birth, everyone wants to consume me, covet my body, even the Ancient Gods consider me one of their bases for winning, devouring me would greatly enhance their power, I can only gamble this way."

The Ancient Gods present him with an opportunity to accelerate, seemingly wanting him to grow old and die, letting the world besiege him, yet isn’t it also giving him a chance?

An accelerated breakthrough, to break free.

Minis laughed, "Your Majesty, in the long history, I’ve seen such a thing, and witnessed such celestial phenomena attacks, Ancient God curses."

The surrounding ministers, and even Immortal Emperor Jicao, listened attentively to this mysterious and ancient Minis speaking, "Once, in a distant era, there was a kingdom called the Atabia Dynasty, which also angered the Ancient Gods, cursed by calamities from beyond the world."

"That world was small, but compared horizontally, the attack at that time was even grander than the one before us, the wrath wasn’t directed at an emperor, it was directed at all living beings within the world, various disasters fell, heavenly floods, sunsets with Purple Mist, earth fires surged..."

The surrounding ministers, and even Immortal Emperor Jicao were greatly shaken, exclaiming, "What happened afterwards?"

"Destruction."

Facing the eyes of the crowd, Minis smiled and said, "The Ancient Gods’ mighty power was too terrifying for those within the world, the Atabians couldn’t withstand it either..."

The man known as the National Preceptor began to recount the history of the Atabians, causing Ji Cao’s heart to be turbulent, his brain roaring, filled with regret, rage, and controlled by emotions.

He had thought himself a genius, never expecting that civilization to be so terrifying, experiencing a similar fate, brilliance followed by destruction.

After listening, even his heart couldn’t help but harbor a frightening thought:

Even such figures couldn’t succeed, can I truly succeed?

Lead civilization to not be anyone’s slave!

Not follow anyone’s commands to wage war!

Be one’s own master!

"National Preceptor, you clearly can break through the Ancient Gods, why do you remain stuck at this realm, not crossing beyond Chaos?" Ji Cao asked.

"My era has yet to come." Minis said calmly, "I must wait a little longer to bloom my flowers."

Ji Cao frowned, deeply vexed with this True God hiding and wandering the world, "National Preceptor, you painstakingly plan, are you trying to obtain me too?"

"Yes."

Minis didn’t deceive the other, for he was a smart person, and smiled:

"Though you may feel dissatisfaction in your heart, in my eyes you are almost certainly doomed, too many fish in the historical eras played by the Ancient Gods, worlds one after another, heroes spilling blood and falling, who then transcends the river?"

"I hope you remember my assistance, if you fail, don’t achieve freedom, then hand over your corpse to me before dying."

"My death, whether it lands in the National Preceptor’s hands, is not for me to decide."

Ji Cao shook his head, "Right now, at least four forces covet me, three major Ancient Gods, and you... all waiting, waiting for me to break through to the Divine Upper Level, the herb matures, this expelled Chaos Immortal Grass emerges from the world?"

He knows better than anyone.

When he is expelled to Chaos, it’s the moment the relic appears, the Gods’ competition.

And the Gods are accelerating his growth.

"I can only try to fight them for you." Minis smiled, "After all, everyone covets you, you’re a critical piece in victory or defeat."

"You want to consume me?" Ji Cao knew the person’s Combat Talent wasn’t as good as his, but if he consumed him, the Combat Talent indeed would enhance.

"No, not me."

Minis smiled, "I intend to use you, this once-in-an-era extraordinary Immortal Grass, to save a life."

"Who?" Ji Cao curiously asked.

"Just a Fourth Tier mortal." Minis replied, "I’ve sought many ways, only realizing your extraordinary Immortal Elixir can perfectly revive him."

The ministers present were all shocked, perplexed by the significance.

This isn’t just any Immortal Grass coveted by even the Ancient Gods!

Permanently changing talent, unprecedented, as a key contest point in this Multi-Dimensional World Gods’ war!

And such an Immortal Grass is merely intended to save someone who’s not even a Demigod, just a Fourth Tier mortal?

"Is it... Atabia???"

Ji Cao’s mind thundered, suddenly standing up, uncontrollably blurting out.

Similar circumstance, the same Ancient Gods fighting outside, there is Thunderbolt and Light Ancient God, here are the three Ancient Gods...

Yet if in his position, were it that man... he would definitely inherit his power, break the Crystal Wall, fulfilling the dream of slaughtering gods left undone!
