Aspiring to the Immortal Path

Chapter 951: The Yellow Court World

Chapter 951: The Yellow Court World

Wind Holder died.

With his True Immortal power, Tang Jie really didn't dare to let him live. Who knew what other sort of trick he might have? Given the difference of two tiers, if this guy managed to break free, it would be a huge problem.

As expected, Wind Holder's death resulted in a splendid explosion.

Various treasures, medicines, materials, and talismans rained down from the sky, piling up in a small mountain and leaving everyone dumbfounded.

Tang Jie couldn't help but smile. "This is what it means to be rich!"

While this giant pile would have to be cleaned up, which was much less convenient than stealing a Mustard Seed Bag, at least it was a very enjoyable sight.

After the loot explosion came the inventory count.

As the formation master of the court, Reverend Five Origins really had been wealthy. He didn't have many divine treasures—only nine—and had barely any art relics. After all, an existence of his level would disdain to collect those ordinary objects. The art relics in the earlier Mustard Seed Bag had belonged to Wind Holder to fill the bag.

But the various rare materials were innumerable and left Tang Jie dazzled. Some of them he had only heard of, and others were completely unknown to him.

These materials were all for laying down formations. Although they didn't have as obvious effects as divine treasures and pills, they were far more valuable to Tang Jie. All this time, his formation laying had been limited by his variety of materials. Although the Martial Lord's hidden realm had many materials, they were all for cultivation, with only a few being suitable for formations. Meanwhile, each material here could be used for formations, so how couldn't Tang Jie be excited?

The materials certainly weren't as prominent as Dao armaments, but if one added them all up, they probably would match the value of a Dao armament.

Besides that, Reverend Five Origins had also left behind an artificial Dao armament, a bell. It was somewhat similar to the bell Xu Miaoran had used in the past, able to awe souls and disorder the mind. It didn't sound impressive, but this was a Dao armament.

Dao armaments weren't about the power of their spell arts, but their absolute nature. In terms of power, many Dao armaments might not even compare to divine treasures, but because of their Dao Runes, the spell arts that they could use were like the laws of the world, unable to be resisted.

Thus, the bell's ability to upset the mind was irresistible, and even a Boundless Gold Immortal would be dizzied by this Dao Armament. Of course, what happened after they were dizzied was another matter entirely.

Given its extraordinary effect and its delicate appearance, Tang Jie gave it to Xu Miaoran. In this way, Xu Miaoran and Yiyi both had a Dao armament.

There were also pills and talismans, and Tang Jie distributed them according to everyone's needs. Of course, Tang Jie didn't give any to those he'd subjugated, like the Flame Celestial Sovereign. He was already being nice by not taking his treasures.

Finally, there was a Dao Bone.

This Dao Bone was the last item needed for the Lithos Dragon and Wind Holder to complete their advancement. Apparently, it was condensed from the Immortal Emperor's supreme power and was able to serve as a vessel of the Great Dao, making it superior to all Immortal medicines.

Whether it was the Lithos Dragon or Wind Holder, once they were reborn, they needed to use this Dao Bone to complete their breakthrough and become a True Immortal. Not only that, they would now possess limitless potential.

As for the Azure Dragon, because he had been the earliest one to study the Fake Sky, False Sun Immortal Art, he didn't have this Dao Bone. Instead, he had been relying on the Verdant Cloud Domain's Five Elements formation to complete his transformation. Unfortunately, the Immortal Emperor had swindled him.

What confused the Lithos Dragon was: since the Dao Bone had been used, it should have been absorbed into the body and shouldn't have remained. So why had Wind Holder left behind this Dao Bone?

The Azure Dragon scoffed. "You need to ask? That dogshit Immortal Emperor must have swindled you lot as well. 'Limitless potential after becoming a True Immortal'? Hah! The Dao Bone wasn't even absorbed, so there's no potential at all. On the contrary, this Dao Bone might end up absorbing all of your cultivation instead."

His hatred for the Immortal Emperor had caused the old dragon to even change the way he talked about him.

Despite his bias, the Azure Dragon's argument was reasonable.

But if this was really the case, it meant that someone had to ultimately benefit from this plan.

The beneficiary was most likely the architect of this plan, meaning that the person who ended up with the Dao Bone would be the most suspicious, so both dragons looked strangely at Tang Jie.

While nobody said anything, they all had the same unspoken theory.

They all pretended to act confused while knowing the truth, though it wasn't certain that they actually knew the truth.

In the end, Tang Jie didn't have anyone use the Dao Bone.

After tidying up the treasure, Tang Jie proceeded to absorb the entire Five Origins Estate into the Yellow Court World.

Four Earth Immortals and one True Immortal had died in the estate, so the place was extremely rich in spiritual energy.

As Tang Jie was absorbing everything, a rumbling came from the Yellow Court World.

First of all, that golden wheel on the horizon began to exude a sacred light.

This wheel was the foundation of the Yellow Court World, its core, comparable to the Great Stellar Chiliocosm's Heavenly Dao Law Wheel and the Heavenly Dao Hourglass in the Immortal Emperor's tomb.

Under this holy radiance, the entire world began to change.

This transformation, while not visible to the naked eye, could be felt.

They could feel the world growing larger and larger, the sky drawing farther and farther away from the land, and the earth growing thicker and thicker.

A layer of clouds appeared in the sky.

All of these clouds were condensed from spiritual energy.

Brilliant bolts descended from the clouds, bringing lightning, fire, destruction, and also life.

The abundant spiritual energy transformed into winds and rain.

All things in the world rejoiced as they basked in this sacred blessing.

Life flourished and grew.

On the central Immortal island, that being who had not experienced a breakthrough for so long suddenly howled and let out a brilliant light. He had broken through!

He had gone from peak Celestial Heart to Violet Palace.

This was the Yellow Court World's first Violet Palace existence, a sign that the world's level had increased.

Of course, this didn't mean that this world could only reach the Violet Palace Realm. According to the Yellow Court Dao that Tang Jie had set down, all living beings in the Yellow Court World had to be one realm below the Heavenly Dao. Only the master of this world was able to reach the apex of this world, or else there would be no way to control it.

Thus, the living being on the island reaching Violet Palace meant that the world's level had reached Immortal Platform.

As Tang Jie was looking at this creature that had broken through, he suddenly grunted.

A powerful will was transmitted into the mind of this creature.

That first Violet Palace cultivator of this world trembled. Realizing something, he turned to the horizon and prostrated.

This was obeisance to the Heavenly Dao. At this moment, Tang Jie was the Heavenly Dao!

Tang Jie's will filled this creature with veneration to Tang Jie. He knew that this was his God, his Creator. To this existence, the creature felt sincere devotion and was willing to give his life for him.

In the future, more and more strong existences would be born on this land. Whether fiend or cultivator, starting from today, they would serve Tang Jie.

All living creatures of this world were soldiers for its master.

All the resources of this world were materials for its master.

All laws of this world were the Dao Wills of its master.

These were the three major uses of this small world.

A person who owned this kind of small world was called a Domain Lord!

All living creatures of the Yellow Court World were affected by the Yellow Court Great Dao. If they fought the Domain Lord, they would be suppressed by the world.

This was the real reason Tang Jie dared to fight five Immortals.

However, the Yellow Court World had previously been unripe, and a peak Violet Palace world didn't have a very obvious effect on Immortals. Even if it could suppress them somewhat, it came at the cost of damage to itself.

The Miniaturization Formation, the Azure Dragon, and the Flame Celestial Sovereign had made it so that Tang Jie didn't need to use his last trump card, allowing him to avoid this damage.

Now that the Yellow Court World was on the Immortal level, it could easily suppress Earth Immortals.

After several hundred years of constant investment, the Yellow Court World was finally starting to show some obvious power and ability to play a role in both cultivation and combat.

From now on, it was Tang Jie's new hidden realm.

It was larger, richer in resources, and had more functions than the Martial Lord's hidden realm.

If not for the value of the Parting Classic, the value of the Martial Lord's hidden realm and the Five Origins Estate put together couldn't match even a tenth of the Yellow Court World.

Of course, growing the crop and harvesting the crop were two different things.

The Yellow Court World had just reached the Immortal Platform level, which was like a plant that had just borne fruit and still needed time to ripen.

In terms of soldiers, the Yellow Court World had only one Violet Palace expert. It needed time for an army to take form.

As for resources, the unique environment of the Yellow Court World had allowed for the creation of many special resources not seen in the Great Stellar Chiliocosm, but he needed time to study and research their uses and effects.

Finally, there were the Daos, which obviously needed time to develop.

In short, while the Yellow Court World had borne fruit, just like the fruit on a fruit tree, it needed time to grow, someone to gather them, and even someone to sell them, and over the years of harvest, one could truly begin to profit and create an enterprise.

But regardless, bearing fruit was a good thing. The Yellow Court World was no longer a small world that only sucked up resources.

There were actually quite a few people across the Great Stellar Chiliocosm who owned a small world, but those who were able to nurture one to this level were few and far between. It was a feat Tang Jie could be proud of.

While the Yellow Court World was finally complete, Tang Jie's work wasn't done yet.

Like a cultivator, a small world had no limit to how much it could grow.

Thus, Tang Jie once more began to make arrangements in the Yellow Court World.

His main target this time was the time formation.

The Yellow Court World's time formation had been set down several hundred years ago, and it accelerated the world's time.

But the time formation consumed numerous resources, and it had only been able to accelerate time to a certain extent.

To hasten the speed at which the "fruit" ripened, Tang Jie liberally used the materials he had gained from the Five Origins Estate.

The addition of this vast quantity of resources filled up the gaps in the time formation, and Tang Jie started to be able to control the flow of time within this world. Of course, to pull this off, his just-filled coffers were emptied out once more.

But Tang Jie was used to this. What were resources for, anyway? He would have used them here or for cultivation.

To maximize the power of the time formation, Tang Jie even used the Eternity Sarcophagus as the formation eye, and its Dao Runes served to greatly boost the formation.

As Tang Jie completed the time formation, his understanding of the Dao of Time also grew by leaps and bounds.

With this, the Yellow Court World could be considered complete.

But Tang Jie still wasn't satisfied, drafting some new laws for his world.

Yes, the Yellow Court World had matured and borne fruit, but there was no limit to expansion. In the future, if Tang Jie had any extra resources, he would definitely invest them into the Yellow Court World to improve its potential.

To this end, Tang Jie needed to properly plan everything out.

Thus, he altered the laws of the Yellow Court World and set up a new conversion formation.

This conversion formation used the Myriad Immortals Cauldron as its core. Using the cauldron's Dao Runes, it was able to replicate its effects and suppress and enslave all beasts.

But there were some differences. The Myriad Immortals Cauldron was strong in suppressing and enslaving beasts, but not in nurturing them.

Merging it with the Mountain River State Diagram did much to make up for this weakness.

From now on, the Yellow Court World not only had the ability to produce, but it also had the ability to store up, accumulate, and convert. Some existences that couldn't be suppressed by the Myriad Immortals Cauldron could now be dealt with.

…Like the Flame Celestial Sovereign, the Azure Dragon, and the Lithos Dragon.

The day after the Yellow Court World's completion, three more unfortunate fellows moved in to keep He Chong company.
