"Move!" A Quasi-Emperor raised his hand and swept his disciple, who was charging out of the Immortal Ancient Old Land, into it, disappearing from the land in an instant.
"Let's go!" Guan Chen walked out of the Immortal Ancient Old Land, casting a glance at the closing immortal ancient old land. Last time he had to avoid the Peacock Ming King, but this time, things did not go as smoothly. The Quasi-Emperor of the Azure Dragon lineage sighed and left the Immortal Ancient Old Land with Guan Chen.
"Heavenly King!" Wang Zhongsi, Guan Yu, and Zhao Yun walked out of the Immortal Ancient Old Land and bowed slightly.
"Congratulations to the three of you for reaching the Quasi-Emperor realm. We are now equals! Hahaha!" Lei Hua laughed heartily. The power of the Great Han Sacred Court could also help Danxue Mountain, not to mention that the two were already related by marriage.
"Let's go!" Just a day later, the Immortal Ancient Old Land vanished into the vast Sea of Boundaries. Countless forces sorted through their gains from three years in the Immortal Ancient Old Land. A month later, a giant being emerged from the depths of the Immortal Realm's center, holding a decree from an Supreme Giant. His eyes swept across the entire Immortal Realm, and his terrifying voice boomed like the resonance of the Great Dao.
"Decree of an Supreme Giant: One hundred years from now, a Grand Gathering of All Races will be held at Mount Lu."
"Decree of an Supreme Giant: One hundred years from now, a Grand Gathering of All Races will be held at Mount Lu."
"Decree of an Supreme Giant: One hundred years from now, a Grand Gathering of All Races will be held at Mount Lu."
...
"The Grand Gathering of All Races is finally here!" Countless beings exclaimed with excitement. The Grand Gathering of All Races, established at the beginning of the Era of Emperors by the Four Great Giant forces from the depths of the Immortal Realm, was initially intended to win the hearts of all races and solidify their hegemonic status. Over time, it became a tool for the Four Great Giant forces to control all races. The Grand Gathering of All Races was held one hundred years after the opening of the Immortal Ancient Old Land.
The Immortal Ancient Old Land was the stage for top Immortal Emperors in the Immortal Realm, where they contended for the seeds of Emperor's destiny and laid the foundation for their path to enlightenment. The Grand Gathering of All Races, on the other hand, was the stage for Quasi-Emperors and Immortal Emperors, to contend for the title of the strongest beneath Immortal Emperors and to obtain precious materials for refining supreme treasures. The goals and rewards were different. The Quasi-Emperor first place in the last Grand Gathering of All Races was Kong Xuan of Danxue Mountain, and the one before that was the fallen Heavenly King Zi Jin.
"Quick, prioritize the resources brought from the Immortal Ancient Old Land for the Holy Son. In a hundred years, our clan will surely bring fame to all four directions!"
"The Grand Gathering of All Races! Everything I lost this time, I will reclaim in a hundred years. Wang Zhongsi, I will definitely kill you this time!" In Mount Fuchen in the eastern region of the Immortal Realm, Guan Chen transformed into his aged true form, suppressed by four chains. This was his cultivation method, his physical body was incomparably powerful.
"The Grand Gathering of All Races is about to begin. Quasi-Emperor beings from the Four Great Giant forces will also participate. I wonder if our respective forces can continue the invincible glory of the previous two gatherings. Can we seize the invincible title of the strongest beneath Immortal Emperors from the beings of the Four Great Giant forces?" some beings said nervously.
Speaking of the various forces in the Immortal Realm, countless beings knew very little about the Four Great Giant forces in the core depths of the Immortal Realm. The core depths of the Immortal Realm were a forbidden zone. From the beginning of the Era of Emperors until now, no one other than the beings of the Four Great Giant races had ever entered that land. The beings from the four directions of the Immortal Realm could at most travel to Mount Lu when the Grand Gathering of All Races began. Mount Lu was the outermost edge of the core depths of the Immortal Realm and the closest place to the core depths of the Four Great Giant forces.
"Holy Emperor!"
Changan City.
"Rise!" Yang Hao waved his hand, and the bowing Zhuge Liang immediately stood up, bowed slightly, and presented the third-grade seed of Emperor's destiny.
"The matter of the Immortal Ancient Old Land has concluded. Kong Ming, do you have a method to strengthen the Great Han?" Yang Hao asked softly, sensing the aura of the seed of Emperor's destiny as Wei Zhongxian presented it.
"Holy Emperor!"
Zhuge Liang bowed slightly and said, "Currently, there are many powerful forces in the southern region of the Immortal Realm, among which the Bo Men Palace with its four emperors reigns supreme and can awe the southern region of the Immortal Realm. Our Great Han cannot rival them."
As Zhuge Liang spoke, he moved to the map of the southern region of the Immortal Realm and waved his feather fan. "Below Bo Men Palace is the Sun Moon Heavenly Court, with three emperors shaking the heavens. Among them, Xiu Ming Immortal Emperor's son attained enlightenment one hundred thousand years ago but has not entered the ancient star road for a long time, his foundation is unstable. With the matter of the fallen ancient Immortal Emperor before us, I believe that the Chang Ling Pill treasured in our Great Han's treasury can be used."
Yang Hao nodded slightly. He had forgotten that he had once obtained the Chang Ling Pill from a blind box. This pill could only be used by Immortal Emperors who had attained enlightenment, and it could delay their entry into the ancient star road within the ten-thousand-year limit by an additional three thousand years. Three thousand years might not seem like much, but for an Immortal Emperor with an unstable foundation, it was a great boon.
"Our Great Han is located in the southern border region, with a stable rear. To the east, we have Danxue Mountain as our backing, so we have no worries. To the west, ten thousand miles away, is Bo Men Palace. This time, they gained nothing from the Immortal Ancient Old Land. This third-grade seed of Emperor's destiny can be given to Bo Men Palace."
Zhuge Liang smiled, fanning himself. "With the Chang Ling Pill and the seed of Emperor's destiny, we can stabilize the two dominant forces in the southern region of the Immortal Realm. The Seven Star Pavilion has grievances with the Void Demon Race, so we naturally don't need to bother with them. Our Great Han can then focus on eliminating the Void Demon Race. With the royal army of our Great Han, we can definitely conquer the territory of the Void Demon Race. At that time, our Great Han will surely have a stable empire with heroes rising to prominence, and challenging the Sea of Blades Alliance will not be out of the question!"
"Good!" Yang Hao listened intently. The Chang Ling Pill and the seed of Emperor's destiny were like trifles to the Great Han. If they could be utilized to their maximum potential to stabilize the two dominant forces in the southern region of the Immortal Realm, the Great Han would naturally have no worries about conquering the Void Demon Race. The Void Immortal Emperor, who had three seeds of Emperor's destiny abolished by an Supreme Giant and had fallen to the level of an ordinary Immortal Emperor, had long lost his former glory.
"First, seize the territory of the Void Demon Race, then conquer the Sea of Blades Alliance, forming the foundation of a Heavenly Court. We will then stand as a tripod with the Sun Moon Heavenly Court and Bo Men Palace. After that, we can conquer the entire southern region of the Immortal Realm. Holy Emperor, this is the grand plan I have devised for our Great Han!"
"Holy Emperor, we must not neglect our Great Han in the Meng Prefecture in the eastern region of the Immortal Realm either. By joining forces with the Danxue Mountain forces, we can exert pressure on the Zhao Yao Palace and the Wu Shan Immortal Court, which would also be very promising! With advancements on two fronts, we can secure the eastern and southern regions of the Immortal Realm. As you said, our Great Han will occupy one-third of the Immortal Realm's territory."
"Approved!"
Yang Hao uttered a single word, and Zhuge Liang and Wei Zhongxian immediately bowed. In just a few dozen breaths, imperial decrees went out from Changan City. Zhuge Liang boarded a chariot and entered the Mica Granary Road, heading to the Meng Prefecture in the eastern region of the Immortal Realm to strategize for the eastern territories.
In the 284th year of Great Han, the Chang Ling Pill and the seed of Emperor's destiny were delivered to Bo Men Palace and Sun Moon Heavenly Court, easing the delicate relations. The Great Han Sacred Court was fully preparing for the grand plan to annihilate the Void Demon Race.
