Millennia sigh at the changing dynasties!
Myriad years understand the shifting stars!
Time, it is neither long nor short.
For a mortal, a mere century is enough to witness the vicissitudes of life.
For a dynasty, a mere millennium is enough to see the rise and fall of kingdoms, and the reincarnation of countless souls.
However, even such a long time is but a drop in the ocean when placed upon the stars inhabited by mortals.
Moreover, what is that compared to a galaxy containing countless stars?
And a galaxy is but a small part of the universe.
Beyond the universe lies the vast world of chaos.
Beyond the chaotic world lies the endless chaotic void.
Anything, when placed upon a single individual, is vast and significant, but when placed in such an infinite space, everything is insignificant, even time, which can measure the life and death of beings and the rise and fall of dynasties.
In the blink of an eye, several millennia have passed since Xuan Ming entered seclusion and issued his orders.
Countless beings from the Immortal Court have traversed the various edge regions of chaos during these millennia.
Chaotic regions that had never seen outsiders before now bear the presence of Immortal Court beings.
Countless little-known, closed-off civilizations have been conquered by the Immortal Court.
In the eyes of those civilizations, the Immortal Court is invincible. As for Xuan Ming, the Immortal Court Emperor who has never appeared, he has become a lofty myth.
The territory belonging to the Immortal Court is also growing at a visible rate.
And with the growth of territory, the foundation of the Immortal Court is also constantly rising. The conquered, and the countless ascendants from the billions of chaotic worlds within the Immortal Court, have become an unshakable backbone in the Immortal Court's rule over these regions.
"Is this the most prosperous region of the Immortal Court... truly terrifying. I feel that even a passerby has the strength to kill me with a casual gesture..."
"Indeed, no wonder the clan elders call it invincible!"
Below the Imperial Court is a vast Immortal City, originally the Imperial Capital City of the Divine Profound Dynasty. Later, as the Immortal Court advanced, Xuan Ming placed it on the continent below the Imperial Court, which is also the most central region of the entire Immortal Court.
At this moment, a group of young men and women from the edge of chaos, like fleeing refugees, stared at this ancient city that had accompanied the Immortal Court for the longest time, their expressions shaken.
You must know that in their home heavens, they were the most outstanding geniuses. The youngest was only eight hundred thousand years old, and the oldest was no more than a million years old, but they had all reached the Supreme Realm, and were expected to become Chaotic Half-Immortals, or even Chaotic Grand Luo True Immortals in the future. They had always had an extremely conceited sense of superiority.
Especially when they were selected by the Immortal Court to enter the Imperial Capital Academy for further study.
They became even more inflated.
But when they arrived at the Immortal Court, their worldviews were crushed.
Everyone here was stronger than them. Even looking at the lowest-level commoners in this city, they sensed that they had at least the cultivation of a Ruler.
And most people had the Chaotic Half-Immortal Realm.
Moreover, there were some existences that they could not sense, but whose auras were extremely terrifying, even stronger than the only True Immortal Ancestor in their heavens. Obviously, they were great powers in the True Immortal Realm.
They had to do everything they could to have a chance to advance to True Immortal.
But here, the number of True Immortals was countless, and Chaotic Half-Immortals walked everywhere. How could they maintain their pride?
"Shocked, aren't you? In our home heavens, your talents are indeed powerful, but the Immortal Court rules over tens of thousands of chaotic heavens. How many geniuses are there among them? Not to mention the geniuses of the Immortal Court's own Heavenly Palaces and Divine Halls. Their existence is even stronger than some Heavenly Ancestors... Now you know that there are people beyond people, and heavens beyond heavens, right?"
The Chaotic Half-Immortal Realm expert who came with them looked at the shocked geniuses of his own heavens and couldn't help but warn them.
These geniuses of his own heavens had stayed in their home heavens for too long, and had become somewhat arrogant, thinking that there were no young people in the world who could surpass them.
But the world is vast, and no one can claim to be the strongest. After coming into contact with a higher realm, there are those who can stand shoulder to shoulder with them.
Before, without comparison, they could not educate them. Even the True Immortal Ancestors could not do it, but now, standing in the most prosperous territory of the Immortal Court, there are people stronger than them everywhere, which can just change their frog-in-a-well mentality.
And it wasn't just his own geniuses who were frogs in a well. Even he was shocked by the scenery of the Immortal Court.
In his home heavens, there were only ten Chaotic Half-Immortals. His mentality was also somewhat arrogant, but seeing Chaotic Half-Immortals walking everywhere, and the Immortal Court, where Chaotic Grand Luo True Immortals were barely considered strong, his state of mind was also washed away.
"Understood..." These young geniuses nodded heavily, their expressions somewhat dejected.
Suddenly coming into contact with things on a higher level made them somewhat doubt themselves for a while.
"You don't need to belittle yourselves. This seat is already old, and my future achievements are limited."
"But you are different. Staying in your home heavens, resources and teaching are limited. Your highest achievement may be the peak of the Chaotic Half-Immortal, but studying in the Immortal Court, where resources are endless and experts are countless, your future will definitely not stop at the Chaotic Half-Immortal Realm."
"This is also the reason why our Heavenly Ancestors painstakingly sought for Immortal Court experts to test your talents, so that you could obtain a place to study at the Imperial Capital Academy. You must seize this opportunity."
"Yes, World Lord."
"Alright, I will take you to the Imperial Capital Academy. By the way, don't call me World Lord on the way. Just add 'Lord' after my surname."
The Chaotic Half-Immortal said.
He wouldn't have thought anything of being called Lord Realm Master before.
But here, he inexplicably felt a sense of guilt.
It was as if he was terrified that the surrounding people of the Immortal Court would discover that he was the Lord of a Chaos World in the outside world.
"Yes," the young prodigies replied, though confused, still obedient.
......
"For thousands of years, the Immortal Court Emperor Xuan Ming has sat high upon his imperial throne. The Immortal Court's powerhouses continuously offer him conquered Chaos Worlds. Our myriad worlds are also one of these conquered worlds. This is what it means to be supreme."
Within the Immortal Court, someone stood at the bottom of the world, gazing at the misty, faintly visible Imperial Court, their expression shaken.
Although the Immortal Court Emperor had never revealed his appearance or displayed his immortal might,
the deeds performed by his subordinates over the long years
had imbued the title of Immortal Court Emperor with immense authority. Even uttering his revered name would stir a feeling of reverence in one's heart.
This feeling was not limited to the beings of conquered worlds; all beings living in the Immortal Court felt it.
It was as if, in the depths of the unknown, the Immortal Court Emperor's authority permeated the entire world, impossible to erase.
And as time passed, the Immortal Court Emperor's prestige grew even more profound.

Chapter 693: The Memories and Origin of the Ancient Heavenly Court's Master
............
Xuan Emperor Hall.
Eight thousand years had passed since Xuan Ming entered seclusion.
During this time, Xuan Ming had refined countless Chaos Worlds, even refining one percent of the Qi Luck Imperial Seal.
Such vast and abundant energy allowed Xuan Ming's cultivation to increase significantly, crossing from the Perfect Eternal True Immortal realm to the Half-Step Transcendent domain. Just half a step further, and he could become a supreme Transcendent Daoist.
And upon reaching this realm, a sudden piece of news awakened Xuan Ming.
"The battle of the Chaos Dragon Clan's young masters is nearing its end..." Xuan Ming's eyes flickered slightly as he gazed towards the Imperial Dragon Immortal Province of the Chaos Immortal Domain.
The news that awakened him was precisely the fact that the battle of the Chaos Dragon Clan's young masters had reached its final stage.
"In that case, it shouldn't be long before the Chaos Dragon Clan might actively contact the Immortal Court..."
Xuan Ming thought to himself.
Given the Chaos Dragon Clan's need for allies, the Immortal Court was currently their only choice.
And now that the battle of the Chaos Dragon Clan's young masters was about to end, and the Three-Headed Dragon Emperor had cleansed the other dragon clan young masters, if Xuan Ming's guess was correct, it was time for the Chaos Dragon Clan to contact the Immortal Court.
Of course, if he guessed wrong,
and the Chaos Dragon Clan ultimately did not contact the Immortal Court,
Xuan Ming would not suffer any losses. The battle of the Chaos Dragon Clan's young masters was witnessed by the entire Chaos Dragon Clan.
Once the Three-Headed Dragon Emperor truly obtained the position of young clan leader, it would be set in stone, and he would truly inherit the Chaos Dragon Clan's lineage in the future.
With this advantage, Xuan Ming could still use the Chaos Dragon Clan to protect the Immortal Court.
"Even so, the best outcome is for them to come to me proactively, otherwise..." Xuan Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.
If the Chaos Dragon Clan did not come proactively, he would undoubtedly have to resort to some means to control the Three-Headed Dragon Emperor.
That would definitely not be a good thing for the Chaos Dragon Clan.
And it would also be detrimental to the Immortal Court, because it would expose their plans too early.
"Before contacting the Chaos Dragon Clan, I should be able to refine some more of my reincarnated bodies' origins and some Chaos Worlds, pushing my cultivation to the extreme of the Half-Step Transcendent realm. At that time, even if there are changes in the plan to control the Chaos Dragon Clan, I can still advance to transcendence very quickly," Xuan Ming thought in his heart.
This was the worst-case scenario. He was using the Chaos Dragon Clan to guard against a possible siege of the Immortal Court by transcendent forces after he advanced to transcendence.
But ultimately, his advancement to transcendence was the most important thing.
If this plan could not be perfected, it should not affect Xuan Ming's ultimate plan.
Therefore, he decided to continue cultivating, to prepare for a situation where he could quickly transcend if something went wrong. Moreover, if the matter with the Chaos Dragon Clan was handled perfectly, he would not need to waste any more time and could immediately step into the realm of transcendence.
"Let me see, which reincarnated body's origin will it be next?" Xuan Ming retracted his thoughts and focused his attention on the Qi Luck Imperial Seal.
"Hmm?"
"This is!?"
Xuan Ming's immortal sense touched the interior of the Qi Luck Imperial Seal, and his pupils suddenly shrank.
"How can this reincarnated body's origin be so vast?" Xuan Ming's mind was shaken.
He saw that the reincarnated body's origin that his immortal sense touched was extremely vast, even the Eternal Realm reincarnated body that Xuan Ming had refined before could not compare!
"The origin is pure to the extreme, and it feels like it's on a higher level than the power I currently possess. Could this not be a reincarnated body, but..."
Xuan Ming's expression changed as if he had thought of something.
He could be certain that the reincarnated bodies of the Ancient Heavenly Court's Master did not have any existences in the Transcendent domain; otherwise, they would not have come to his generation.
And even if there were, they would definitely have a prestigious name in the vast chaos. But throughout history, besides the Ancient Heavenly Court's Master, only the Ten Heavenly Sovereigns of the Chaos Heavenly Court and the eight ancient forces' Transcendent Heavenly Lords had advanced to transcendence. There were no others besides them.
Clearly, there were none!
But at this moment, this origin within the Qi Luck Imperial Seal possessed power that only a transcendent level could possess.
