Everlasting Immortal Firmament Chapter 738

Book 6: Chapter 012: Five Years

Gu Hai traveled in the spatial tunnel for three days before finally seeing a bright light, the exit.

Gu Hai flew out of the exit, and the hole suddenly vanished.

Bang!

Gu Hai appeared above a vast sea.

“This is the feeling of Spiritual Energy! I’ve returned!” Gu Hai clenched his fist tightly. Then, he took out a flying ship to ride on.

He placed a pile of corpses on the flying ship. These were the corpses of Leo and the others. However, they had strangely turned into a pile of withered bones.

Gu Hai sank his consciousness into his dantian and checked the spiritual souls he deposited into his Karmic Energy pool.

After the black-clad man died, all their spiritual souls had entered the Karmic Energy pool.

However, those clumps of spiritual souls had melted.

“They were all destroyed?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

The spiritual souls of Leo and the others had melted into nothing.

“It looks like this method to bring someone between the two immortal firmaments will not work. Back then, Long Zhanguo’s and Xiaorou’s three spiritual souls were comparatively stronger, so they made it over. Others…?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

Gu Hai extended his hand and burned the corpses.

Then, he looked at the large flying saucer.

Rumble…!

Gu Hai quickly dismantled the flying saucer. However, he could not use much of it. It flew using hydrogen fuel cells and was far from comparable to the Six Paths Immortal Firmament’s enchanted treasures. The only thing that Gu Hai considered useful was a pen.

It was Leo’s pen, the one that could erase memories.

“Laozi said that some time-attributed energy is sealed in here? Time attribute?” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly and carefully stored it.

Gu Hai had only this one memory-wiping pen. He currently did not have the ability to analyze it, so he put it away.

Then, he turned his head and surveyed the surroundings.

“This is the sea where the Solar Divine Palace was? The fusang tree is gone? That large stele? The Rebel Sin Ranking?” Gu Hai looked at the large stele.

All the names had vanished from that stele; blood had covered them.

“There were three thousand of them, and they are all dead?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

Gu Hai extended his hand and took out a zither puppet, wanting to contact Borderless Heavenly Capital.

However, no sound came from it.

“Oh?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

Gu Hai had placed zither puppets around the Solar Divine Palace previously. The zither puppets had a range of more than five hundred thousand kilometers, yet there was no signal? That meant all the zither puppets placed within five hundred thousand kilometers were gone?

Gone?

The principle by which he ordered the zither puppets was to spread them throughout the world. There would only be more and not less, yet the zither puppets nearby had vanished? Did something happen?

Gu Hai extended his hand and took out the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal.

When the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal appeared, the world seemed to sense something. Then, a golden aura suddenly surged towards Gu Hai.

Boom!

More blessings appeared out of nowhere. Soon, a storm of blessings coalesced above his head.

After Gu Hai left the Six Paths Immortal Firmament, the Han Royal Dynasty’s blessings cloud sea had vanished.

It was not that the blessings had scattered. Instead, they could not find the person that gathered them. Now, there was the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal. When the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal appeared, it was proof to the world that Gu Hai had returned.

Gu Hai’s appearance drew the blessings in—and these were continuously increasing. There seemed to be even more blessings than the Han Royal Dynasty previously had.

The excess was the Qian Heavenly Dynasty’s blessings that Gu Hai plundered when he killed Long Zhanguo.

There were two ways to increase blessings. One was with the increase of citizens in the territory, slowly and continuously accumulating blessings. The other was to plunder blessings by killing other sovereigns.

Long Zhanguo had carried the Qian Nation’s blessings. When Gu Hai killed him, his blessings naturally gathered on Gu Hai. Although much of the blessings had been lost with the changes over the many years, Gu Hai still received a horrifying amount.

The blessings continued accumulating. It seemed like something was about to be born within them.

Gu Hai’s eyes lit up. “Coalescing a dragon embryo? Is this the sign of advancing to an imperial dynasty?”

Although anticipation filled him, he still restrained his impatience.

Then, he raised his hand and tossed the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal up.

Rumble…!

The surging blessings suddenly poured into the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal, like a river of stars sliding into it.

The imperial seal could store blessings, so Gu Hai temporarily stored all of the blessings in the imperial seal. The surging blessings were indescribably vast. It took an entire day to get all the blessings into the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal.

Buzz!

The Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal flared with a dazzling golden light. Then, Gu Hai extended his hand and put the Heaven Suppressing Divine Imperial Seal away.

“I wonder, how is the Han Royal Dynasty now? I need to return quickly,” Gu Hai said.

Whoosh!

The flying ship coursed in the Han Royal Dynasty’s direction.

After flying for a day, Gu Hai’s zither puppet finally responded.

“Oh?” Gu Hai’s eyes lit up.

The zither puppet’s response meant that there were other zither puppets within range. However, the words the zither puppet said made Gu Hai’s face sink.

“The Wu Imperial Dynasty has already sent soldiers to the Han Royal Dynasty. The Han Royal Dynasty has been losing every battle. It looks like it is over for them?”

“They are probably competing with the Heavenly Go Pavilion. If Long Shenwu does not capture the Han Nation, the Heavenly Go Pavilion will take the opportunity to make a move.”

“The Han Royal Dynasty? They are truly good for nothing. Haha! Their treasures and territories are being snatched away, but they can only watch, not daring to send out soldiers? Hahaha! Should we try attacking too?”

“You are not the only one interested. Right now, the Han Royal Dynasty is a fat piece of meat. Many factions in the vicinity want a slice of the cake. Many have already taken action.”

As various voices came from the zither puppet, Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.

Gu Hai did not know who was using the zither puppets to transmit their voices, but he was sure they were not the Han Royal Dynasty’s people. The Han Royal Dynasty’s method of transmitting voices had been a tightly guarded secret. Who were these people who were talking?

How could there be zither puppets here? If these did not belong to the Han Royal Dynasty, then there was only one possibility.

The zither puppets had been exposed.

Perhaps the Han Royal Dynasty’s zither puppets had been snatched away. Perhaps Yun Mo had worked with others.

Exposed?

Gu Hai understood that the secret of the zither puppets would not be kept hidden for very long. Ever since Long Zhanguo learned of it, the knowledge had spread to many in the Qian Nation; Sima Changkong, Long Aotian, and Long Sanqian all knew.

Gu Hai showed a sullen expression.

With the zither puppets exposed, Gu Hai naturally did not use them to send a message.

Gu Hai listened to the zither puppet as he continued flying into the distance.

On the third day, Gu Hai finally met a group of fox spirits having a feast.

Bang!

Gu Hai suddenly descended from the sky.

“Who is it?” the group of fox spirits demanded furiously while glaring.

The leader, the fox spirit king, suddenly showed a horrified expression. “Gu-Gu Hai?”

“You recognize me?” Gu Hai asked.

“Ah?! It really is you? Gu-Gu Hai, you are alive?!” the fox spirit king exclaimed.

“Great King, this fellow appeared out of nowhere. I’ll finish him off!” a fox spirit called out.

“Shut up. All of you, withdraw! Withdraw!” the fox spirit king cried out in anger.

“Huh? Yes!” the fox spirits said in confusion.

“Em-Emperor Gu, you did not die? I-I-I used to be an insignificant animal spirit from the Solar Divine Palace. I saw you before. Em-Emperor Gu, I did not target your Han Royal Dynasty or even step foot in the Han Royal Dynasty!” the fox spirit king assured him worriedly.

“You recognize me? That is good. Don’t worry. I am not here to kill you; I just want to ask you a few questions,” Gu Hai said.

“Ah! Yes! Yes!” the fox spirit king immediately said respectfully.

“How long has the Solar Divine Palace been destroyed?” Gu Hai asked.

“Uh…It has been five years since all life in the world was knocked unconscious. Emperor Gu, do-don’t you know about it? Were you in closed-door cultivation?” the fox spirit king said in shock.

“It has been five years?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

The times of the two immortal firmaments did not correspond to each other. Furthermore, there was no pattern. Although Gu Hai had spent a little more than a year in Earth’s immortal world, he spent only ten days or so on Earth. Including the time in the spatial tunnel, it would just be ten-odd days. Yet, five years had passed here?

“Five years? Did anything major happen?” Gu Hai asked.

“I-I don’t know. I’m just an insignificant Nascent Soul Realm animal spirit. I…,” the fox spirit king stammered in fear.

“Just tell me what you know and heard,” Gu Hai said.

“Oh! Oh! Yes! Yes! I do know some information. Uh…it seems Heaven has stopped monitoring Tengen Island in the Thousand Islands Sea. The Heavenly Go Pavilion reemerged and started taking in disciples. That’s right. I heard that the Azure Emperor swore fealty to the Heavenly Go Pavilion,” the fox spirit king said, thinking back.

“How preposterous! The Azure Emperor has already died!” Gu Hai said.

“Uh…yes! Yes! Yes! I know. Emperor Gu personally killed the Azure Emperor in Divine Farmer City. However, the Heavenly Go Pavilion brought the Azure Emperor back to life. No one knows how they did it. It’s true! Everyone in the world knows about it. The Azure Emperor’s previous subordinates in the Yan Heavenly Dynasty were overjoyed and rushed over to the Heavenly Go Pavilion,” the fox spirit king explained.

“The Azure Emperor came back to life? That’s impossible!” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.

Gu Hai had personally killed the Azure Emperor. The three spiritual souls of anyone Gu Hai killed entered his Karmic Energy pool. He recalled that the Azure Emperor’s shattered spiritual souls had entered the Karmic Energy pool. Then, he had completely refined them into Mending Heaven Energy.

He is alive again? This is impossible!

“It’s true. Everyone in the world knows about it!” the fox spirit king insisted firmly.

Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly and nodded, not arguing further. What others saw might not be true. There were definitely some problems with this Azure Emperor. That person might not be the real Azure Emperor.

“Continue!” Gu Hai looked at the fox spirit king.

“Yes. It is known all over the world that Emperor Gu killed Long Zhanguo in the end. The Qian Heavenly Dynasty was destroyed, and many factions wanted to split it among themselves. In the end, Long Zhanguo’s two sons used the Qian Nation’s men to establish their nations,” the fox spirit king explained.

“Two sons?” Gu Hai said in confusion.

“Yes. The first crown prince of the Qian Nation, Long Shenying, established the Ying Imperial Dynasty, becoming the Ying Imperial Emperor. He occupied five provinces of the former Qian Nation. The third crown prince of the Qian Nation, Long Shenwu, established the Wu Imperial Dynasty, becoming the Wu Imperial Emperor. He also occupied five provinces of the former Qian Nation,” the fox spirit king explained.

“Long Shenwu? He is still alive? Didn’t he die to the Ten Rising Suns Ritual Array?” Gu Hai said with a frown.

“Uh…it is said that that Long Shenwu was just a clone. His true body had not participated in the battle against Heaven. It is also said that he was in closed-door cultivation for one hundred years and came out just recently,” the fox spirit king explained.

“Long Shenwu? A clone?” Gu Hai’s face sank.

Long Shenwu had not participated in the battle to destroy the Solar Divine Palace? Then, the Long Shenwu I had seen in the past was just a clone?

“Yes. That is what I heard. I heard that the Wu Imperial Emperor is incredibly powerful. Not long ago, the sovereign of an imperial dynasty coveted the Northern Sea Dragon Palace and went to subdue the dragons there. In the end, the Wu Imperial Emperor went over and defeated that imperial dynasty’s sovereign in one move. Then, he recruited the Northern Sea’s dragons for himself,” the fox spirit king explained.

“The Ying Imperial Emperor? The Wu Imperial Emperor? Haha! Long Zhanguo’s sons are not easy to deal with. No wonder…no wonder…” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes slightly.

Long Zhanguo gave me a few letters but none for his sons. He even told me to be careful of his sons. I found it strange. I thought that only Long Shenying survived, so why “sons” in plural?

“How is the Han Royal Dynasty now?” Gu Hai looked at the fox spirit king.
