Zhang Jian nodded.
King Yu glanced at Zhang Jian and said.
"Focus on your cultivation diligently, don’t worry too much. With your accumulated fortune, your luck is bound to surpass Cang Nan and Miao Ling!"
He patted Zhang Jian on the shoulder.
Zhang Jian was speechless.
...
As the Dao Seeds of Cang Nan and Miao Ling of the Penglai Daoist Palace fell in the Eternal Forbidden Area,
Numerous Immortal Gods around the Eternal Forbidden Area immediately became more restrained.
The powers contained within this Eternal Forbidden Area were too terrifying.
Dangerous places like the Frozen Abyss were not the only ones deep within the Eternal Mountain Range.
Moreover, with several true bodies of Daoist Monarchs descending, and returning without success, the treasure-hunting frenzy around the Eternal Ice Castle gradually dissipated.
Six hundred years later.
Zhang Jian noticed this change and conveniently summoned Madam Bai and Ji Clan’s lady from the Lingyuan Emperor’s Mansion.
Ji Clan’s lady, cultivating the Immortal Technique from the Paradise Demon Realm, also needed the power of ice and snow deep within the Eternal Ice Castle to refine her state of mind anew.
Meanwhile, Madam Bai needed to refine the Profound Nether Divine Banner and start merging with the Xuan Ming Divine Position to reforge her foundation.
Eternal Celestial Monarch’s Mansion
At this moment, Madam Bai gazed at the Profound Nether Divine Banner brought by Zhang Jian, her expression filled with disbelief.
"Your Majesty, I fear I might not be able to successfully subdue the Profound Nether Divine Banner..."
Faced with such a Supreme Treasure, she felt a bit uneasy and even slightly anxious.
Seeing her expression, Zhang Jian smiled and said.
"I heard you recently participated in the Qingqiu Assembly at the Qingqiu Palace, so I suppose Lady Tushan has already guided you!"
Bai Liying slightly nodded.
She had come from Qingqiu Palace on this trip.
Zhang Jian had great confidence in Bai Liying.
"Fourth Sister, you have the body of the Profound Nether Dragon Species, why belittle yourself? You can command the divine position of wind and rain over a state or even a realm in the Lower Realm, naturally, you can also hold the authority over rain and snow in All Heavens Void!"
Bai Liying was an upper-tier dragon species, the Profound Nether True Dragon, among the Dragon Race.
Moreover, she had participated in the Sea King Festival, and her bloodline was exceptionally pure.
Such a bloodline was considered top-tier even among the Four Seas Dragon Race.
And with her firm determination to seek the Dao, Zhang Jian was naturally confident in her.
Bai Liying was simply momentarily overwhelmed by the great opportunity before her eyes. Once she adjusted her state of mind, she confidently accepted the Profound Nether Divine Banner, her eyes shining brightly.
"I will not disappoint Your Majesty’s high hopes!"
Bai Liying bowed gracefully. Zhang Jian chuckled heartily, stepping forward to help her up, and said with a laugh.
"We have been Dao Companions for tens of thousands of years, why be so distant!"
Immediately, Zhang Jian gave a side hall of the Eternal Ice Crystal Divine Hall to Madam Bai for her cultivation.
...
On the other hand, he also arranged for Ji Clan’s lady to enter the Eternal Ice Castle, and Zhang Jian himself entered a semi-seclusion state.
After completing the sublimation of the Dao Heart, Zhang Jian took a thousand years to consolidate slightly, and then began attempting to utilize the power of the Three Lives Stone to connect the timeline, sever fate, gather all his powers, and unify all might into himself.
In the main hall of the Eternal Ice Crystal Divine Hall.
At this moment, Zhang Jian was surrounded by a three-colored Divine Light, and above his head appeared a magnificent Divine Stone. It’s as if it connected with the space-time and fate rivers in the depths of the Profound Void, piercing into the depths of his Life Palace.
In the space-time anomaly above his head, countless scenes appeared to emerge.
There was the confusion of being just born, the naivety of childhood attending elementary learning with hundreds of Zhang Clan children, the anxiety and excitement of first touching the Ancestor’s power at the Ancestral Hall, and the joy of passing the prefectural and provincial exams thanks to it.
Numerous memories of day after day of hard studies.
Following that were scenes of scoring high on the Golden List, achieving Champion Scholar, and then forming the Golden Core, achieving the Primordial Spirit with numerous fortunes.
These vivid years surfaced before his eyes as if just yesterday.
Next, he needed to rely on Great Magical Power to gradually unify the timelines of his past, present, and future self, bringing the myriad realms into one, maintaining his peak state, eternally unique, and no longer regressing.
...
Five hundred years later.
At the city gate of the Eternal Ice Castle, Ji Clan’s lady had emerged from seclusion, surrounded by an ethereal aura, and the stern, murderous regimen was completely gone, reverting to its essence, becoming carefree.
At this moment, she felt completely at ease.
Using the eternal solitude power within the Eternal Ice Prison, she successfully eradicated the hidden dangers within herself.
Her Dao Heart could finally peacefully control the Paradise Immortal Spirit Map’s nurtured Paradise Demon Realm.
She could calmly comprehend the wonders of the Taiyi Dao Fruit without worrying about falling into the Demon Dao.
At this moment, her eyes gazed at the surrounding whiteness.
The snow fell silently; this was an eternal city of ice and snow.
Such beauty would astound at first sight, but to face this scene day in and day out for hundreds or even thousands of years truly tests an Immortal God’s Dao Heart.
"I heard Fellow Daoist Ji hails from the Ji Clan of the Three Emperors Celestial Realm?"
Just then, a clear voice was heard.
Ji Xueqiong looked over to see a Divine General appear among the celestial soldiers surrounding him at the city head. This Divine General had a dignified, middle-aged appearance, a square face adorned with a slight beard, and eyes full of authority.
He was the Spiritual Martial Immortal Official, Yuan Jiang.
Upon hearing this, Ji Clan’s lady smiled and replied.
"I hail from the Ji Clan of the Mortal Realm, and while there are some connections to the Ji Clan of the Celestial Emperor Celestial Realm, the difference is quite significant!"
Yuan Jiang chuckled.
"It is even more surprising that someone with Fellow Daoist Ji’s talents is not of the Ji Clan of the Three Emperors Celestial Realm!"
Ji Clan’s lady maintained a calm demeanor and replied indifferently.
"Commander Yuan, you overpraise me. There are many Immortal Gods like me in the Celestial Court; I am hardly one to boast!"
