At this moment, in the Prime-Origin Civilization, within the Immortal Chu Dynasty.
In Chu Wang City.
Inside the grand hall, Chu Gucheng and many of his subordinates were discussing important matters.
Hundreds of terrifying figures were gathered here, each emanating an aura no weaker than the Immortal Emperor level. They were surrounded by fragments of time, as though standing in another space and time, their auras vast and boundless.
The Immortal Chu Dynasty had been recruiting talented individuals, and over these eras, it had gathered many people of great fortune.
Some of them had already grown to become capable of standing on their own.
The beings who had arrived after receiving the news were only a part of them.
Your Majesty, you can rest assured. With just one command from you, not only the Mirror of Reincarnation, but even the Saintess Xiyuan, we will capture her for you.
At this moment, a burly divine general clad in golden armor laughed and spoke.
His aura was as deep as an abyss, his eyes blazing like the sun, and his entire body radiated a terrifying presence. Golden light flowed around him, dazzling and intense, like an invincible war god capable of shaking the heavens and earth.
The heavy atmosphere in the hall was broken by the divine general's words.
Many people couldn't help but chuckle.
Even Chu Gucheng, who had been feeling somewhat agitated, couldn't help but shake his head and smile wryly. 'The Xiyuan Sacred Hall is, after all, the oldest force in the Prime-Origin Civilization, with unfathomable depth. Although they no longer interfere in external affairs, you must not underestimate them
The divine general clad in golden armor before him was one of the four divine generals of the Immortal Chu Dynasty, the Heavenly Divine General, whose strength was equally unfathomable.
In fact, he had been personally mentored and promoted by Chu Gucheng.
Moreover, this Heavenly Divine General was also a person of great fortune, with a childhood experience somewhat similar to Chu Gucheng's.
The Xiyuan Sacred Hall is indeed transcendent, but over these eras, we haven't seen any famous prodigies emerge from there. Even those who have broken through to the Dao Realm are few and far between. Your Majesty, why are you so concerned about them?
In our opinion, it's forces like Purple Mist Mountain that we need to be wary of, to prevent them from secretly stirring up trouble and scheming. The Heavenly Divine General said with a dismissive smile.
The current dominance of the Immortal Chu Dynasty was indeed at its peak—powerful and thriving, making the other forces of the Prime-Origin Civilization wary.
I am not wary of the Xiyuan Sacred Hall, but I am considering other matters.
The Saintess Xiyuan's master is a true End of the Path-level existence. Although she has disappeared for countless years, she cannot be underestimated. Chu Gucheng shook his head.
End of the Path-level existences, no matter the era or epoch, were truly inconceivable beings.
However, after going to the Xiyuan Sacred Hall to seek the Saintess Xiyuan's help and being turned away again, Chu Gucheng's resolve deepened.
He was already making plans to use this opportunity to resist the upcoming Cataclysmic Tribulation.
Among these plans, the Mirror of Reincarnation in the hands of the Saintess Xiyuan played a crucial role.
In Chu Gucheng's view, it was even crucial to whether his plan to resist the calamity would succeed.
Mentioning the Saintess Xiyuan's master, everyone in the hall fell silent.
Even the Heavenly Divine General was no exception, clearly wary of that End of the Path-level existence.
If only my master could return at this time...
The Mirror of Reincarnation is extremely important. If Saintess Xiyuan insists on not lending it, then don't blame me for taking harsh measures.
Chu Gucheng's gaze was deep, his expression imposing without anger, his hands clasped behind his back.
White-Browed Star Lord, Eight-Headed True God, and many other subordinates gathered respectfully, their faces showing an aura of cold killing intent.
Since its establishment, the Immortal Chu Dynasty had faced many calamities, some of which nearly caused its collapse. Yet, each time, they had worked together to resolve the crisis.
Although the Xiyuan Sacred Hall held a transcendent position in the Prime-Origin Civilization, if they insisted on opposing the Immortal Chu Dynasty, they would not hesitate to follow the Ruler's orders and march to seize the Mirror of Reincarnation
If the Immortal Chu Dynasty falls, then the Prime-Origin Civilization has no reason to exist. Beside the Heavenly Divine General, several other figures shrouded in divine light, radiating a terrifying aura, also spoke, their eyes filled with cold killing intent.
Chu Gucheng nodded in satisfaction.
The Immortal Chu Dynasty had risen to prominence later but had achieved its current powerful dominance through his management and recruitment.
Almost every one of these subordinates had been personally selected by him. He had formed benevolent ties with them when they were weak, protected them as they grew, and nurtured them to their current level.
Your Majesty's 130th Epoch Birthday is approaching. I have already sent out invitations to the various forces as instructed, White-Browed Star Lord said at this moment.
Chu Gucheng nodded. 'Good. If the Xiyuan Sacred Hall still refuses to cooperate after this birthday celebration, then don't blame us.
Afterward, he gave a few more instructions, and the star lords, divine generals, and ministers in the hall gradually left.
However, not long after the star lords and divine generals had left.
A shocking piece of news suddenly arrived, leaving Chu Gucheng both stunned and shaken.
Your Majesty, something terrible has happened! The ninth prince of the Golden Crow Clan from the Demon Court has perished within the territory of our Immortal Chu Dynasty. The Demon Ancestor is furious, and many demon generals and soldiers are heading toward our territory.
A minister, his face pale, rushed in and knelt on the ground to report.
What did you say?
Chu Gucheng's face was filled with shock and disbelief.
However, he quickly regained his composure, his eyes flickering slightly before he said in a deep voice, Have the Heavenly Divine General handle this matter. Although the ninth prince of the Golden Crow Clan died within our territory, we cannot allow the Demon Court to act recklessly.
After all, this was a matter of face.
However, he was also puzzled. Why would the ninth prince of the Demon Court suddenly die within the territory of the Immortal Chu Dynasty?
Immediately, beneath Chu Gucheng's wide sleeves, an ancient book glowing with Daoist light and covered in ancient runes appeared.
This was a divine artifact that had nearly become a supreme treasure, called the Book of Yin and Yang. It had the ability to deduce the future, though Chu Gucheng had not used it for a long time, as it was difficult to deduce beings of his level.
However, at this moment, he used it to deduce, frowning as he tried to understand the cause and reason behind this event.
Does it have something to do with the competition for opportunities?
The Book of Yin and Yang was extremely mysterious and profound. Under Chu Gucheng's deduction, ripples spread out, and a weathered page of the ancient book flipped, revealing faint light.
His frown deepened, and his eyes became solemn..
Longling Ancient Domain.
Chu Bai returned to Xuanluo City with the Sun-Shooting Bow, and the entire Chu Family erupted in cheers.
All the clansmen were extremely excited, as Chu Bai had returned victorious and completely unharmed, while the Golden Crow, which had caused endless slaughter, had vanished without a trace, its aura completely gone.
The terrifying battle in that area had also come to an end.
It was clear that Chu Bai had slain the Golden Crow, living up to his reputation as a prodigy from Xuanluo City.
Elder Chu Bai has slain a Quasi-Immortal Emperor-level Golden Crow. His strength is truly unfathomable.
All the members of the Chu Family looked at Chu Bai with admiration and respect.
The slight unease Chu Bai had felt earlier was now completely cast aside.
Now that things have come to this, I must inform the other powerful members of the Chu Family about this matter.
Chu Bai, feeling the deep connection between his mind and the Sun-Shooting Bow, muttered to himself.
He did not regret killing Di Wen. The Sun-Shooting Bow was a rare divine treasure, and in his opinion, its power was no less than that of the legendary Supreme Treasure of Civilization.
With just a few arrows, he had easily slain Di Wen, a Quasi-Immortal Emperor.
Once he achieved the Dao Realm in the future, he would undoubtedly possess even greater power, and his future achievements might not be inferior to those of Chu Gucheng, the current ruler of the Immortal Chu Dynasty.
Fortune favors the bold. If I had hesitated, I might have already been killed by the Golden Crow's protector.
Chu Bai ignored the clansmen and began contacting other powerful figures in the Immortal Chu Dynasty.
After cultivating for hundreds of thousands of years, he had made many friends and naturally knew some seniors who had already broken through to the Dao Realm.
These seniors held important positions in the Immortal Chu Dynasty.
Of course, the most important thing was for Chu Bai to report this matter to Chu Gucheng, the current ruler of the Immortal Chu Dynasty, and seek his support.
