The Inheritance Of The Supreme Immortals

Chapter 160: Chapter 160: The Eternal City

In a sudden flash of light, a figure appeared in the sky, his handsome face catching the sunlight as his golden hair swayed gently in the wind.

His golden eyes scanned the triangular monument below.

In an instant, thousands of figures materialized beside him, as though following his lead.

The triangular monument resembled a pyramid, but it seemed to be made entirely of gold.

Ancient scribblings adorned its surface, each inscription radiating a subtle yet powerful energy.

"What is that... some kind of monolith?" Adriana asked, her Eyes of Clarity glowing with a brilliant light.

She could see strange lines of spiritual energy weaving through the air, reaching deep into the ground, stretching farther than even her enhanced vision could follow.

"It is a monolith. My husband used it to submerge the Eternal City right here," Ophelia, who was levitating beside Adriana and her daughters, said calmly, her expression soft.

"The Eternal City... so it really exists?" Adriana and the others were shocked at the revelation.

They had read about it in ancient texts and heard the legends, but they never truly believed it was real.

"Yes," Ophelia confirmed, her face warming as she spoke.

"Tens of thousands of years ago, the Great Son of the Universe and we, his eternal companions, called this place home."

A similar warmth spread across the faces of her fellow eternal companions as they remembered their past lives.

Back then, when the Great Son of the Universe married his wives, he sought to create a place worthy of them, a home they could call their own.

With his limitless power and the strength granted to him by the Universal Tree and the World Tree, he used a mere fraction of his abilities to create a city that even the gods envied—a paradise for cultivators.

He named this city in honor of his eternal companions, calling it the Eternal City.

"In this life, it will once again become home for our family... for all of us," Ophelia said with a gentle smile, her gaze shifting to the women who had become part of her husband's life in this lifetime.

"Family, huh..." Adriana smiled, her thoughts wandering.

"Yes, we are one big family now," Yuna added, sharing the smile with the eternal companions.

A few days prior, after the launch of the system, Sam's wives from his past life—the eternal companions—had gathered to discuss the situation.

They accepted the reality that Sam had gained new wives in this life.

Rather than treating them with any form of exclusion, they embraced them as sisters, fully welcoming them into their shared family.

Here's the revised and enhanced version of the text, without the use of dashes:

Suddenly, every woman who aspired to become the great emperor's wife or who had already taken her place as one of his lovers felt a profound change within themselves.

Accompanying this mysterious transformation, they simultaneously heard a system ringing in their ears, and a prompt appeared before their eyes.

[You have gained the recognition of the Universe]

[You have gained the right to join the unique lineage of the great Son of the Universe's bloodline]

[To complete the lineage acceptance, you must be named by the Universal Scion]

Sam understood what was happening to his women, but he resolved to address it after he dealt with the matter at hand.

Gracefully, he descended to the ground and calmly approached the monolith, placing his hand upon its golden brick.

The strange symbols and scribblings on the monolith began to glow with a myriad of colors, releasing a dense spiritual energy.

Slowly but surely, cracks began to appear all around.

Within seconds, they spread to every part of the monolith.

In a moment of silence, the structure shattered into tens of thousands of pieces.

Before the fragments could fall, they vanished, transforming into pure energy and leaving nothing behind.

For a few seconds, there was stillness. Then it began.

[Warning!]

[The Eternal City has been awakened]

The ground started to vibrate, the tremors rapidly escalating into violent convulsions felt not just by Sam and his companions but by all cultivators across the entire world.

On the Azure Dragon Continent, the White Tiger Continent, the Vermillion Bird Continent, and the Black Tortoise Continent, every individual felt as though an earthquake of cataclysmic proportions had struck without warning.

The convulsing ground fractured into hundreds of cracks, each widening and lengthening in all directions, stretching for hundreds of kilometers.

Spiritual energy erupted from the fissures, releasing an enormous amount of power that had long been locked away, sending waves of energy rippling across the skies.

The cracks widened further, and the earth began to sink deeper, as if it were being swallowed whole.

Hot water surged from the massive fissures, filling the newly formed voids.

Within a matter of minutes, the entire landscape transformed into a sea of boiling water.

"This is insane," the cultivators exclaimed, their eyes wide with awe as they watched the scene unfold.

It felt as though they were witnessing the work of a deity.

Little did they know that even gods could not create something of this magnitude.

From the boiling waters, hundreds of colossal structures began to rise gently, sending tremors rippling across the continents, causing panic among the cultivators who were simply going about their daily lives.

Each structure varied in shape, size, and form, yet all of them were enormous.

Even the smallest stood at least 400 meters high, while the tallest among them pierced the heavens, beyond what the naked eye could measure.

A vast garden emerged, stretching for hundreds of kilometers, filled with divine and spiritual herbs, godly plants, and rare trees.

This sacred garden was encased within a protective dome, designed to preserve its treasures despite having been buried underground for centuries.

Dozens of immense arenas scattered randomly across the landscape, each appearing strong enough to contain the power of beings at the level of gods.

Nearby, a massive wall slowly opened, allowing water to pour forth.

This water began to wind its way around the structures, forming an expansive lake that followed the roads, with bridges materializing as if animated by a life force of their own.

Castles, more majestic than even the famed Twilight Castle of the vampires, emerged from the earth.

Hundreds of them shot upward like skyscrapers, their spires piercing the sky.

These castles, though individually magnificent, were interconnected, forming a labyrinthine city that stretched across hundreds of kilometers.

The entire city appeared as one vast, seamless structure.

At the very heart of this eternal city stood a singular castle, towering above all the rest.

It was a colossal fortress, seemingly composed of dozens of castles fused together, and its height reached into the very heavens.

This was the Eternal City—the City of Heavens and Desires.

When the city finally emerged, a profound silence fell over the crowd, as if they had suddenly forgotten how to speak.

No… it would be more accurate to say that they understood everything unfolding before them, they could see it all clearly, and they knew they had the ability to speak, but simply couldn't.

It was as if any sound they made would disrupt the majestic reappearance of the immortal city, the one created by the great emperor.

In this moment, all they wanted was to etch this scene into their hearts and minds, to preserve it for all time.

No matter how many centuries or eons passed, as long as their souls remained alive, they would never forget this moment.

Many couldn't help but sigh softly, as if filled with a deep serenity.

They felt as though they had seen the essence of life itself and could die without a single regret in their hearts.

Others felt that even if they were to live forever, they would never witness a more beautiful sight in all their immortal existence.

Even the Eternal Companions of the Great Emperor found themselves pausing to steady their racing hearts.

The sheer magnitude of emotion that overwhelmed them was undeniable.

The very reason the Great Emperor created the Eternal City was to have a place where he could live with his wives, a sanctuary they could all call home.

It was here that they had lived their past lives with him, shared countless moments of joy and sorrow, and bore his children.

This city was not just a place; it was the embodiment of their memories, their love, and their devotion.

As they gazed upon the city with gentle eyes, memories of their past lives flooded their minds, filling them with a profound sense of nostalgia.

Every corner, every stone, reminded them of the life they had built together.

In that moment, they couldn't help but fall in love with their husband all over again.

He had created all of this just for them, out of his boundless love.

He had given them a paradise, a testament to how much he cherished them.

And they knew that he would go even further, do anything necessary, to ensure their happiness.

His love was simply too vast to comprehend.
