Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Due to Bai Qi’s shamelessness, Jiang Changsheng ultimately agreed to let her stay in the Purple Cloud Palace. In any case, she would ascend in a few years.

The ten-year period had brought a sense of urgency to all the experts in the world. How to obtain merit had become the most asked question in the world. For a moment, many chivalrous people appeared in all the provinces. The officials in the court also began to pay attention to the livelihood of the people and implemented more generous policies.

Heavenly Jing ushered in an unprecedented decade. This was the happiest decade for the common people.

All the martial artists in the world wanted to give it a try. Even if they could not become a legitimate god, it would be good for them to become a Heavenly Soldier. As for the common people, they were calm. They mainly watched the show.

After the news spread to the Great Wilderness, those races that were on good terms with Heavenly Jing came one after another, wanting to see the phenomenon of ascension. The myriad races were looking forward to it. They thought that the so-called ascension of the Dao Ancestor was to leave this martial world.

In the endless ocean.

Guangtian.

Lin Hongchen sat in the lobby and listened to his subordinates’ report with a frown.

The news of the Dao Ancestor’s conferring god positions had spread throughout Guangtian, causing discussions in the royal court and the commoners. They even felt resentment. Why could the people of Heavenly Jing become gods but not Guangtian?

Not only in Guangtian, but similar comments were also spreading in other dynasties. Almost all of them were complaints from believers of the Dao Ancestor.

Humans were complicated creatures. Even if they were all believers of the Dao Ancestor, they might not be completely united. Especially when a huge opportunity like becoming a god appeared, their complaints caused the matter to spread, and the ones suffering the most were the dynasties.

“It’s the Dao Ancestor again. Why does Heavenly Jing always cause trouble?”

An old general cursed. The people here were specially selected by Lin

Hongchen to avoid the appearance of fanatical believers of the Dao Ancestor. However, Lin Hongchen was not entirely sure he had split them apart, but one thing was certain. These people would not advocate for the Dao Ancestor on the surface.

“Conferring gods? That’s an exaggeration. How can there be a god in this world? The Dao Ancestor is just fooling the people.”

“It is not explained clearly. Previously, there was a rumor that the Dao Ancestor had killed the God of Heaven and Earth. Our Guangtian is too far away from the Great Wilderness. This is not a good thing.”

“Where is the Great Wilderness? It’s too hard to find.’

“I remember the legend of the Dao Ancestor moving the Dragon Vein

Continent. Could it be true?”

“If we do not find the Great Wilderness, the current situation will happen again in the future. As long as we arrive at the Great Wilderness, we can break those false rumors of the Dao Ancestor.’

Hearing everyone’s words, Lin Hongchen nodded.

Lin Hongchen sighed and said, “I know which direction the Great Wilderness is in, but it is too far away. Even if I were to discover it, it would be troublesome to establish a base and move Guangtian. After all, there are many dynasties along the way, and the teleportation array in Guangtian has yet to reach that distance.”

Everyone was silent.

If it were not for Heavenly Jing, Guangtian could have annexed all the dynasties in the world. However, the existence of Heavenly Jing forced Guangtian to find the Great Wilderness as soon as possible. Right now,

Guangtian had fallen into a dead end.

A man in armor said, “Why not look for Heavenly Jing? Its current development should have surpassed Guangtian. Perhaps we can trade for long-range teleportation formations in Heavenly Jing. We can even learn from how Heavenly Jing established itself in the Great Wilderness.”

His words aroused the agreement of others, even Lin Hongchen felt that it was feasible.

In Guangtian, the direction of Heavenly Jing was no secret. Every year, a group of people would rush towards the north. It was said that as long as they went north, they could find Heavenly Jing.

Lin Hongchen immediately made the decision and began to organize his men to rush to Heavenly Jing.

The ten-year period was extremely agonizing for the people of Heavenly Jing, especially those who wanted to become gods.

Jiang Ziyu did not immediately replace the officials in the court, but he had arranged for them to have disciples. This made some smart people speculate. However, no matter how they guessed, the number of officials was not enough to fill up the seats.

It was the 151st year of the Immortal Era. From this year onward, the era name would be changed, so it was not recorded in the history books.

On the day of the new spring, the first ray of sunlight streaked across the streets of Jingcheng. All the officials gathered in front of the palace gates, kneeling and waiting. They occupied the streets within a radius of several kilometers, and those who could kneel here in advance were all ministers of Heavenly Jing.

The citizens and martial artists had all woken up early. They were either in front of the window, in the courtyard, or on the eaves of their house. All of them were looking at the towering palace in the distance.

The day of godly conferment had arrived!

Outside Jingcheng, many other races that were as large as mountains were also waiting. On Martial Peak, hundreds of thousands of disciples stood all over the mountain as they looked at the palace.

At the same time, in the Mental Wander Realm, the scene of Heavenly Jing and Jingcheng was reflected in the sky. Countless believers who were not in Heavenly Jing were watching and witnessing this magnificent feat.

“I wonder what kind of grand occasion the godly conferment will be.” “Let’s wait for the Dao Ancestor to appear.”

“It’s not something we can imagine. I have a feeling that I will never forget what will happen next.”

“Will there be a next time if you miss this conferment ceremony?”

“Of course there will be. How can he confer all the godly position on the first conferment ceremony?”

The discussions of the believers resounded throughout the Mental Wander Realm, making it extremely noisy.

In Jingcheng, Chang Yaoling and Di Chang had also walked out of their houses and were waiting eagerly.

Jiang Jian and his wife stood in the courtyard while his children and grandchildren stood around them as they discussed excitedly. After returning to Heavenly Jing, they finally realized how powerful their father and grandfather’s identities were. When they were in the Bluestone Tribe, they thought that Jiang Jian had climbed up the social ladder of their mother and grandmother.

Time continued to pass.

Noon was coming.

The sound of a bell resounded throughout Jingcheng, reverberated throughout the Si Province, and spread throughout the entire Skyview Land. Everyone who heard it was in high spirits.

It’s coming!

Venerable Bai’s voice sounded in the palace. It was very loud and clear. The doors of the palace opened and the officials stood up and walked into the palace.

The enthronement ceremony would start first and then the godly conferment!

Jiang Ziyu, who was dressed in a dragon robe, was already standing in front of the Human Emperor’s Tablet. He was expressionless, but his heart was surging.

Standing beside him was the crown prince consort who was the daughter of the Yang Family and the next empress.

Meanwhile, Mu Lingluo stood in the distance, dressed in white as she quietly watched.

When the officials arrived, Venerable Bai began to perform the etiquette of submission. Heavenly Jing’s crown was already placed in front of the Human Emperor’s Tablet. After Jiang Ziyu burned incense and toasted the heavens, Jiang Changsheng appeared in front of him out of thin air, picked up the crown, and personally put it on him.

Jiang Changsheng wore the Mercury Yin Yang Seeking Daoist Robe and no longer looked like an emperor.

The coronation this time was not much different from the past. Jiang Changsheng stared at Jiang Ziyu and said, “I’ll leave Heavenly Jing to you. This is the second time I’ve let you obtain control of the land.”

Jiang Ziyu was stunned. He thought Jiang Changsheng was referring to his previous supervision of the dynasty.

“At this point, Immortal Era has ended and the era name has been changed to…”

Jiang Changsheng looked at Jiang Ziyu. Encouraged, Jiang Ziyu immediately shouted, “Dingtian!” Dingtian Era!

Boom!

Surging luck surged into Jiang Ziyu’s body and his body trembled. Jiang Changsheng also flew up and sat cross-legged above the sea of clouds.

“I have founded Heavenly Jing for 150 years. Today, I will give up the throne and establish the Heavenly Court. I will ascend with a lifetime of great merit and become an immortal.”

“God-Investiture, begin!”

Jiang Changsheng’s voice resounded throughout Jingcheng and echoed endlessly, making everyone excited. They had waited for ten years for this day.

Most people wanted to see if the apotheosis was real!

Jiang Changsheng raised his hand and took out the Investiture of the Gods. The Investiture of the Gods burst out with golden light and rapidly expanded, forming a huge scroll that was tens of thousands of feet long. Golden light flickered and it was even more dazzling than the sun.

This scene stunned everyone.

What was that?

Even Jiang Ziyu, Venerable Bai, Chen Li, Mu Lingluo and the others were shocked. This was the first time they had seen the Investiture of the Gods.

“This is the Investiture of the Gods. Anyone whose name is on the Investiture of the Gods can become a god!”

Jiang Changsheng’s voice sounded again with a solemn and dignified tone. Countless believers in the Mental Wander Realm were stunned by the Investiture of the Gods and deeply remembered it.

“Guan Tongyou, Di Chang, Ji Wujun, and Xu Tianji are conferred the titles of the Four Saint Marshals of the Heavenly Court!”

As soon as he finished speaking, four golden lights burst out from the Investiture of the Gods and illuminated the capital.

Di Chang widened his eyes. A powerful force made him unable to move. At the same time, he could feel his luck changing, turning into a powerful force.

The power of an immortal god!

Before he could think further, he flew up and was pulled into the Investiture of the Gods by the golden light. Guan Tongyou, Ji Wujun and Xu Tianji followed suit and flew up under the gazes of countless people. Soon after, four names appeared on the Investiture of the Gods.

Be it the citizens of Heavenly Jing or the other races, they were all shocked and the world was silent.

Before they could react, Di Chang and the other three appeared behind the Investiture of the Gods. Boundless light appeared on their bodies and condensed into their appearance. Their figures were huge and thousands of feet tall, looking down on the world.

Above the Four Saint Marshals was the Dao Ancestor, Jiang Changsheng!

“Chen Li, Yang Che, and Venerable Bai are conferred the titles of the Three Heavenly Lords!”

As soon as Jiang Changsheng finished speaking, another three rays of golden light sprinkled down from the Investiture of the Gods, covering Chen Li and the other two and sucking them into the Investiture of the Gods. Then, they appeared beside Guan Tongyou and the other three. They were on equal footing and similarly condensed a thousand-foot-tall statue.

The seven of them stood proudly in the sky with the statue of god facing the sky. How spectacular was that!

Jingcheng was shocked. The citizens and martial artists went crazy. Countless people knelt down and prayed to the heavens.

Chang Yaoling was stunned. She had already guessed that Jiang Changsheng was a god, but she did not expect the ascension to be so spectacular. She could clearly sense that the auras of Guan Tongyou, Chen Li, and the rest had changed.

It was really apotheosis!

In a mansion to the east of Jingcheng, a group of people looked up at the sky in the courtyard, all of them dumbstruck.

They were all people sent by Divine Lord Zi Huan to monitor the Dao Ancestor. Previously, they did not think much of it. But now that they saw the God-Investiture Ceremony, their understanding was shattered.

Could the Dao Ancestor really be the Ancestor of All Immortals?

In any case, they could not understand the existence of the Investiture of the Gods.

The Xuanhuang Great World did have such massive huge divine weapons, but how could it confer godly positions?

After passing the Investiture of the Gods, the aura of those gods had changed. They were divine and dignified. Even people from the Upper Realm wanted to worship them.

Jiang Changsheng had already sensed their existence and saw their expressions. He was indifferent and continued to promote more people.

“Ye Xun, the Sword God, God of Thieves, Jiang Jian, Lin Haotian, Ping’an, Jiang

Tianming, Jiang Luo, Jiang Ye, Jiang Shan, Yang Yuanhong, Yang Yuanlie, Yang

Yuanxiong, Jiang Yu, Yang Zhou, Zhou Jue, Huang Chuan, Ling Xiao, Xu Mang,

Jiang Xuanzhen… are conferred the titles of the 36 Heavenly Generals!”

Names were revealed by the Dao Ancestor one after another and golden light fell from the Investiture of the Gods.

The King of the Northern Frontier, whose real name was Jiang Yu, did not expect that he could also become a god. He, who had always been strong, burst into tears and his heart was filled with guilt. It turned out that his ancestor had been looking after him all along..
