Patriarch Heaven Stealing?

No!

It was not only Patriarch Heaven Stealing who had mastered the Great Heaven Stealing Technique!

Jiang Changsheng stared at the boulder in front of him as thousands of thoughts flashed past his mind.

Patriarch Heaven Stealing did not say that he was the one who created the Great Heaven Stealing Technique. Even if he deduced that it was the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, he could not be sure if it was related to the ancient immortal Dao.

“Could there be something hidden in this karma?”

Jiang Changsheng thought of what Patriarch Heaven Stealing said. He was hesitating if he should part the karma and check inside.

With the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, he could naturally undo the karma cocoon formed by the Great Heaven Stealing Technique. However, it involved the Great Heaven Stealing Technique and he was afraid that it was formed by an existence he could not provoke for the time being.

However, the boulder itself was heading towards this domain, and he would face it sooner or later.

Even though it was only a matter of time, it would be sooner or later.

Jiang Changsheng decided to put down the boulder for the time being and let his clone guard it. In any case, he did not need anything from it.

With that in mind, Jiang Changsheng left with the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin, leaving his clone to guard the mysterious boulder.

After returning to the Purple Cloud Palace, Jiang Changsheng did not visit the Taiyi Immortal Realm. Instead, he consolidated his comprehension of the Karma Dao.

Other than the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, the Karma Dao of the Heaven Stealing Ancestor had inspired him greatly, allowing him to have better thoughts about the subsequent realms.

Up until today, Jiang Changsheng had comprehended more than a hundred laws of the Great Dao, but he only had a swallow understanding of most of them. The laws of the Great Dao that he had truly studied were still karma, followed by luck and merit.

In the past, he wanted to familiarize himself with the 3000 Great Dao before creating a brand new Dao technique. Later on, he discovered that the profoundness of the Great Dao was unimaginable. With the power of hundreds of Great Dao gathered in one body, even the Primordial Chaos Indestructible Golden Body would find it hard to withstand.

He needed to determine the power of one Great Dao as the main body so that he could control the power of other Great Daos.

…

Outside the Lingxiao Palace, Zhou Bushi, who was covered in blood, half-knelt on the jade path in front of the steps. His hand that held the Heaven Punishing Spear was trembling.

His eyes stared fixedly at the figure that stood above the Lingxiao Palace.

The Celestial Emperor!

The Celestial Emperor was high and mighty, and he wore an imperial robe. However, there was a layer of light golden armor on the surface of the robe, and there were nine dragons of luck behind him, roaring ferociously. He held a sword in his hand that was gray in color, as if it was condensed from gray mist.

Looking down at Zhou Bushi, the Celestial Emperor’s expression was indifferent, but there was admiration in his eyes.

After the battle between him and Zhou Bushi ended, his emotions receded and his rationality recovered. He had already jumped out of the calamity and looked at everything.

“It’s time for this fight to end. What do you think?”

The Celestial Emperor spoke slowly. His tone was calm. From his tone, no one could understand his thoughts.

Zhou Bushi did not answer. His magic power and physical strength had been completely exhausted. He was already forcing himself not to lie down.

The Celestial Emperor looked up and saw that the battlefield in all directions was about to end. As Zhou Bushi suffered a crushing defeat, the morale of the Heaven Punishing Alliance plummeted. The more they fought, the more terrified they became. Ultimately, they were slaughtered.

At that moment, a burst of golden light sprinkled down and enveloped the entire Heaven Realm. Not only the Heaven Realm, but everywhere in the Taiyi Immortal Realm where there were wars, golden light could be seen falling.

“It’s time for this calamity to end. I, the Saint Mother of Fortune, am willing to sacrifice my life’s worth of merit to save all the innocent victims. Immortal Gods, please have mercy. And those with grudges, let go of your hatred.”

Bai Qi’s voice sounded and entered the ears of the public through the merit of the Heavenly Dao.

If such words were said before this, the participants of the war would not have stopped. They would only feel that it was ridiculous. However, after such a long awr, the Heaven Punishing Alliance was only afraid. The Heavenly Court was also tired. After all, they were not fighting for the Immortal Dao. Instead, they were fighting with the immortal cultivators of the Immortal Dao, which violated the responsibility of the Heavenly Court.

The power of merit that filled the sky sprinkled down and turned into thriving vitality to save those innocent people who had died. Those who had more merit than bad karma would also be resurrected.

In the face of such good fortune, the Heaven Punishing Alliance and the Heavenly Court stopped.

“It is my and the Heavenly Court’s fault that the Immortal Dao has encountered such a calamity. I will choose a new order to replace the Heavenly Court!”

The Celestial Emperor’s voice sounded as well, and it could be said that this calamity had come to an end.

Zhou Bushi laid down completely. He opened his eyes with great difficulty and looked at the golden light of merit that filled the sky. He could even feel his injuries recovering.

“Can my merit also surpass my karma…”

Zhou Bushi revealed a bitter smile. Thinking back to the moment when he first obtained the Heaven Punishing Spear, it seemed like it was only yesterday.

He had lost this battle of fate. He should have died and dissipated. But now, he was still alive. Perhaps this was the kindness of the heavens.

At that moment, Zhou Bushi let go of the grudges of the past.

Only after experiencing a cruel war would they know how difficult peace was.

During the process of leading the Heaven Punishing Alliance, he had also experienced the difficulties of the Celestial Emperor. Many things were not so easy to decide. One had to weigh the interests of various parties. He could also understand how the Celestial Emperor dealt with his grandfather because he had done this before for the sake of his grandfather.

For the sake of his family’s fate, he had already fought for it. It was time for him to let go of everything and truly pursue his own life.

…

The Heavenly Court ascended!

This news spread throughout the Mental Wander Realm and then to the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm and the Spirit Realm.

All the immortal cultivators in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm realized that the Heavenly Court would come up to supervise them and order would descend. In the future, they could not be so unscrupulous.

Some supported the ascension of the Heavenly City, while others opposed it. After the Celestial Emperor defeated Zhou Bushi, the major sects did not have much expectations for him. Some sects had even issued a secret order not to recruit Zhou Bushi anymore. They were afraid of getting into trouble.

This calamity reminded all beings of the various achievements and importance of the Heavenly Court. When the Heavenly Court was prepared to retreat, everybody in the Taiyi Immortal Realm was feeling reluctant because they did not know if the new order would be better than the Heavenly Court.

Since ancient times, even though the Heavenly Court had unfair judgments and actions, on the whole, it had never changed. The vast majority of people had never been persecuted by the Heavenly Court and even enjoyed the protection of the Heavenly Court. As their voices became louder and louder, voices urging the Heavenly Court to stay rose in the Taiyi Immortal Realm.

After the great calamity, the Heavenly Court obtained a huge amount of merit, but it was temporarily suppressed by the Celestial Emperor. He began to busy himself with constructing a new system of order.

In this calamity, the most famous one was the Saint Mother of Fortune. The Saint Mother of Fortune descended at the end of the war and the story of saving the common people spread widely, causing her status in the legends to increase again.

It took a hundred years for the Heavenly Court to ascend. Along it, there were a million Immortal Gods. The remaining Immortal Gods were entrusted to supervise the Taiyi Immortal Realm. It was no longer as centralized as before. Every large world had its own Immortal Gods and their respective Immortal Army, which would allow the Immortal Gods to keep each other in check.

At this point, the Taiyi Immortal Realm ushered in the day without the Heavenly Court.

Time passed.

As the Heavenly Court ascended, the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm also became lively. When they ascended, all the Immortal Gods obtained different degrees of merit. Furthermore, the Celestial Emperor relied on the merit accumulated by the Heavenly Court for two million years to step into the Zenith Heaven Realm. In the ten thousand years after his ascension, he became a Zenith Heaven Immortal. After that, he created a world and invited everyone to listen to the Dao.

The Celestial Emperor’s advancement to the Zenith Heaven Realm indicated that the Heavenly Court was also a first-rate force in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm. Moreover, in terms of the number of Immortal Emperors, the Heavenly Court had the highest number. Furthermore, every Zenith Heaven Sect had also sent their disciples to the Heavenly Court to become Immortal Gods, which further consolidated their position.

However, the Heavenly Court still lacked an official acknowledgement, and the Celestial Emperor was also waiting.

In front of the Purple Cloud Palace.

The Celestial Emperor came to visit again, but he was stopped outside the palace by Bai Qi.

“Father has yet to come out from his seclusion?” The Celestial Emperor frowned and asked.

Bai Qi shrugged her shoulders and said, “Master’s attainments are different from ours. A hundred years is probably shorter than a day for him. As for you, don’t wait any longer. Rest assured and do it boldly.”

The Celestial Emperor hesitated. “But without his orders, will the major sects listen to me?”

Bai Qi shook her head and asked, “Why do you have to order the major sects from the start? Can’t the Heavenly Court act on their own? As the Heavenly Court’s achievements increase, the other sects will naturally follow suit. Instead of forcing them to cooperate, it’s better to prove themselves first.”

The Celestial Emperor felt that her words were reasonable. However, he hesitated and said, “I wish to explore outside. What do you think?”

“Very good. You should indeed explore the outside world. The order in the Zenith Heaven Immortal Realm is stable and there are no signs of chaos. All the major sects are exploring the boundless world. If the Heavenly Court can do better and provide the Immortal Dao with more information about the boundless world, it will definitely meet everyone’s expectations.”

Bai Qi praised. Her words gave the Celestial Emperor great confidence.

Even though the Celestial Emperor was in the Zenith Heaven Realm, he knew too little about the boundless world. He only knew that dangers lurked everywhere in the boundless world. He did not want the Heavenly Court to fall in the boundless world.

After chatting for a while, the Celestial Emperor left.

Bai Qi returned to the Purple Cloud Palace and came to Mu Lingluo’s side. The two women looked at Jiang Changsheng together.

“Something’s wrong with Master!” Bai Qi whispered.

Jiang Changsheng, who was sitting on the Divine Throne of the Great Dao Origin, had his eyes closed, but the space around him changed, and even his body produced double images. His state was extremely strange.

Mu Lingluo softly said, “Don’t worry, nothing can stump him. Perhaps he is cultivating a Divine Power. I can sense a strong power of causality. With such a power of causality, it is enough to make people omnipotent.”

Her eyes were filled with yearning. When could her power of fate be so strong?

Bai Qi felt a headache when she heard about karma. What she hated the most was karma and fate. It was extremely complicated. She preferred luck and merit, simple and direct.

At the same time.

Jiang Changsheng was suffering from the backlash of karma.

Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that when he returned to reality and cast the Great Heaven Stealing Technique, he would suffer a backlash from karma even though he had not changed anything.

Fortunately, this karma backlash was controllable. He was currently studying the karma backlash. Only by understanding the karma backlash could he effectively avoid it in the future.

According to his prediction, the Great Heaven Stealing Technique came from ancient times. If he were to cultivate right now, he would have stolen the karma of ancient times. Therefore, he would suffer a backlash from karma the moment he cultivated.

It could also be inferred that there was no inheritance of the Great Heaven Stealing Technique at the moment!

No one knew how long had passed.

Jiang Changsheng finally suppressed the karmic backlash and did not let it hurt him. He slowly opened his eyes.

What entered his eyes was not the Purple Cloud Palace, but countless karma. It was as if billions of rays of light of different colors were circling around him. From the karma, he saw countless fragments.

His eyes focused and the billions of rays of light disappeared, restoring the scene of the Purple Cloud Palace.
