But this time was different. As the Lord of Fate, he clearly sensed the appearance of the Imperial Seal of Fortune.
Only when this object appears in the world can it reflect the identity of the Emperor.
"It's finally coming back. If it doesn't, I'm afraid the Heavenly Court will really fall apart." The Lord of Fate took a deep breath and murmured, a hint of joy appearing on his face.
Since the Emperor disappeared, the orthodoxy of the entire Chaos Heavenly Court, or rather the Emperor's ideals, have been upheld by him and another Heavenly Palace Lord, barely maintaining the overall situation of the Heavenly Court.
If it weren't for this, the other Heavenly Palaces and some upstarts who rose through the Ten Thousand Immortals Assembly would have long split the Heavenly Court.
In fact, the current Heavenly Court is not far from splitting.
Various internal forces are mixed, only respecting the Heavenly Palaces and the Garrison Envoys. The orders issued by the former Heavenly Court orthodoxy have long been ignored.
To some extent, those members who later joined the Chaos Heavenly Court only know their recommenders and not the Emperor.
The existence of the Emperor has become a symbol of the Heavenly Court, rather than the true master of the Heavenly Court in the true sense.
Such a Chaos Heavenly Court, seemingly still strong, is already in name only.
Moreover, without the Emperor's suppression, all parties have the desire to unify the Heavenly Court, but they cannot suppress the other Heavenly Palaces and Garrison Envoys, leading the Heavenly Court to the brink of division.
Once the Heavenly Court splits, the entire Chaos will inevitably fall into an unprecedented chaotic situation, causing the heavens to be destroyed and the living beings to suffer.
The reason for this is that in the process of internal strife in the Heavenly Court, external forces have grown and multiplied. In various states of the Immortal Realm, remote areas, and the heavens of the Lower Realm, powerful forces have emerged.
If the Heavenly Court shows weakness, these forces will definitely not stand idly by, and will inevitably attack the Chaos Immortal Realm, causing the Chaos Heavenly Court to completely lose its hegemonic position.
Over the years, he and another Heavenly Lord have spent too much energy to protect the Chaos Heavenly Court created by the Emperor.
Now, finally seeing signs of the Emperor's return, a hint of relief appeared on the Lord of Fate's face.
He knew the Emperor's power better than anyone else.
Once he returns, he will surely sweep away the turbid air of Chaos and restore the world to orthodoxy.
"Lord of Fate, you are the esteemed observer of the Heavenly Court's fortune. With such a major change in the Heavenly Court's fortune, has something major happened in Chaos?"
A dignified voice sounded, but it was impossible to see who was speaking.
Only the agitation of the myriad Daos of Chaos could be seen, submerging the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace. Vaguely visible in the myriad Daos of Chaos were several blurred figures, of unknown races, but each figure seemed to have transformed into a Chaos realm of its own, standing above the Great Dao, with invincible domains surrounding them, isolating all karma.
And there were very few in the world who dared to call a Heavenly Lord by name. Moreover, within the territory of the Chaos Heavenly Court, the identities of these figures surrounding the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace were self-evident: the Heavenly Lords of the other Heavenly Palaces.
They did not pay attention to the Heavenly Court's fortune, so their reaction was slower.
"Impudent!"
The Lord of Fate frowned. Outside the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace, in the place where the myriad Daos of Chaos surged, a series of large cracks suddenly appeared. The black gaps seemed to connect to an ancient abyss, devouring the myriad Daos.
At the same time, an aura of the mists of time permeated, isolating the heavens and the earth, stripping away everything. In an instant, it completely erased the power of the Heavenly Lords descending upon the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace.
"Humph!"
Several muffled groans came from the lands of the other Heavenly Palaces of the Chaos Heavenly Court.
Obviously, they had not come in their true forms.
"The Heavenly Court's fortune has always been closely related to its internal affairs. Instead of asking me, why not think about what you have done?" The Lord of Fate said coldly.
As if hearing the words of the Lord of Fate, the other Heavenly Lords narrowed their eyes, a hint of suspicion appearing on their faces.
They naturally did not believe the words of the Lord of Fate.
They had fought for endless years, and this was the first time that the Heavenly Court's fortune had undergone such a change. How could it be related to them? Obviously, there was another reason, but the Lord of Fate clearly did not want to tell them.
Seeing that they could not glean any useful information, their immortal senses no longer focused on the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace.
As the power controlling Chaos, the Heavenly Court's authority is the authority of Chaos.
Their authority could not overstep the Lord of Fate's Heavenly Palace to glean the changes in the Heavenly Court's fortune.
Moreover, with the Lord of Fate suppressing them, they could not use their cultivation to pry. At present, they could only place their exploration of information on other aspects.
Their intuition told them that this change in the Heavenly Court's fortune must involve something major.
The unknown made them feel vaguely uneasy.
"The Emperor is the first transcendence since the birth of Chaos. You are just fortunate enough to have eaten some opportunities after the Emperor left and stepped into this realm. Don't you think you can really subvert the Emperor's orthodoxy? What a joke!"

Chapter 583 Twenty-first God and Demon Summon, Xuan Ming Advances to Eternity
............
Seeing the Heavenly Lords of the other Heavenly Palaces finally retreating, the Lord of Fate revealed a hint of disdain.
The Chaos Heavenly Court was first built in the chaotic years of the beginning of Chaos.
After the Emperor suppressed the myriad races of Chaos, in order to facilitate management, he established the Ten Great Heavenly Palaces, governed by the Ten Great Heavenly Lords, to govern Chaos, nurture the heavens of the Lower Realm, and enhance the Heavenly Court's fortune. After that, they, these Heavenly Lords, often manifested in the world, dividing and governing the world.
After the Emperor disappeared, with the passage of time, the Chaos Immortal Realm and the myriad worlds of the heavens gradually prospered.
As the high-level members of the Chaos Heavenly Court who controlled the Chaos Immortal Realm and the myriad worlds of the heavens, they, these Ten Great Heavenly Lords, naturally received huge benefits, constantly advancing their realms, and finally transcending the shackles of the Great Dao of Chaos.
The ambition born of power, the confidence generated by the increase in strength, caused some old members of the Chaos Heavenly Court to change their minds.
However, don't forget that the Emperor is the first transcendent Daoist of Chaos. How could he be weaker than them?
They are all the Emperor's subjects.
Just because the Emperor has been gone for a while, the power has returned to themselves, and their strength has improved, they are ambitious and attempt to turn the world upside down?
How ridiculous.
"After the Emperor returns, the Heavenly Court's internal affairs, the ancient clans of the Immortal Realm, and the ancient forces of the eight directions of the Lower Realm, wait and see, they will all be purged."
The Lord of Fate's eyes flickered with the illusion of stars, and he murmured as he looked through Chaos.
He did not deliberately trace the Emperor's whereabouts.
In his opinion, the Emperor's return has his own considerations.
Before that, what he had to do was to stabilize the foundation of the Heavenly Court as much as possible.
So that after the Emperor returns, he will not frown upon seeing a divided Heavenly Court and a chaotic Chaos.
......
On the other side, Xuan Ming naturally did not know that the matter of the Azure Emperor taking the Imperial Seal of Fortune had caused internal changes in the Chaos Heavenly Court.
At this moment, he was still immersed in refining the Chaos World.
"It seems to be nearing the end of refining."
Xuan Ming muttered to himself.
Nearing the end of refining the eight hundred heavens, his speed of refining the Chaos World had greatly increased compared to before. Xuan Ming estimated that at the latest, half a year would be enough to completely refine the last heaven.
"The power within my body has also truly evolved to the extreme."
"After refining this last heaven, I can start to break through to the Eternal Realm." Xuan Ming revealed a hint of joy as he felt the Heavenly Dao origin within his body, which was like boiling.
As he had expected, the Heavenly Dao origin accumulated after refining a thousand heavens was enough for him to step into the Eternal Realm.
"The Eternal Realm allows one to open up the Great Dao of Chaos and imprint it on Chaos. From then on, if the Great Dao of Chaos does not perish, the Eternal one does not die. Even if the immortal body reaches the end of its lifespan, it can still nurture a new Eternal immortal body in the River of the Great Dao, without needing to return the true spirit to the Great Dao of True Spirit and be reborn like ordinary Chaos True Immortals."
"But, what Dao should I open up?"
Xuan Ming's eyes flickered slightly as he fell into deep thought.
His physique was special, and he had dabbled in and mastered the myriad Daos of Chaos. No matter what kind of Dao, he could easily grasp it. It was not difficult to derive a new Great Dao of Chaos.
But because of this, Xuan Ming had too many choices.
He could not be as single-minded as those ordinary cultivators who could not choose their Dao and could only walk one path.
"The Great Heavenly Dao of Chaos allows me to choose from the myriad Daos of Chaos, but there is no hurry. I can open it up at any time within the Eternal Realm. Moreover, the thing that the Azure Emperor went to retrieve has not yet returned. I will make my choice after it arrives."
Xuan Ming thought for a while and threw the thoughts out of his mind.
The thing that the Azure Emperor went to retrieve gave him a feeling of extreme importance in the dark. Perhaps he would not have to worry about it, and it would be resolved after he obtained it.
"Ding......"
"Detected that the host has a sign-in opportunity!"
"Do you want to sign in?"
Just as Xuan Ming was preparing to refine the remaining Chaos World in one go, a mechanical prompt suddenly sounded in his mind.
"It's time to sign in..."
"Sign in, System."
Xuan Ming leaned slightly on the Emperor's throne and ordered.
Once every hundred years, he was already used to signing in.
