Book 8: Chapter 105: The United Rule Meet



Borderless Heavenly Capital:


Gu Hai wielded the Pangu Ax and shook the entire Borderless Heavenly Capital. Countless officials rushed to the study, their faces filled with concern. However, Gu Hai did not allow anyone to enter the study.


Gu Hai had just experienced the might of the Pangu Ax. That might surpassed all of Gu Hai’s enchanted treasures. Gu Hai sat in his seat, lost in thought.


The recognition from the Pangu Ax left Gu Hai filled with doubt. Pangu? This ancient name…how is it related to me?


Gu Hai could not be sure, but the waves of emotion in his heart would not calm down.


After a while, Gu Hai slowly walked out of the study.


The various officials waited patiently outside. The Unborn Man, Gu Qin, Gu Han, Gu Tang, and Gu Ming were among them.


“Eminent Father, the commotion just now was terrifying. What happened?” Gu Ming asked anxiously.


“It’s alright. It was just the overflow while practicing a cultivation technique,” Gu Hai replied calmly.


“I see.” The officials finally relaxed.


“Eminent Father, it was dangerous just now. The Go Dao ritual array inside Borderless Heavenly Capital almost got crushed by that force!” Gu Qin said with a smile.


Gu Hai nodded but did not mention the Pangu Ax.


He turned to the Unborn Man and said, “Unborn Man, Lifespan Xiahou is with you. We don’t want Lifespan Xiahou to appear in public again.”


“Rest assured, Your Holy Eminence. Lifespan Xiahou has committed a heinous crime by setting up the ghost head lifespan ritual array. I won’t let him escape. Thank you, Your Holy Eminence, for venturing into the East Spiritual Fire Sea for me,” the Unborn Man replied with a respectful bow.


“We will keep our promise to you,” Gu Hai said with a smile.


The Unborn Man looked at Gu Hai in silence, then bowed once more.


Gu Ming’s expression changed slightly. “Unborn Man, are you looking to complete the lines of lifespan cultivation? There’s only one left, Lifespan Dongcang. Don’t worry; we’ll help you find him as soon as possible.”


The Unborn Man glanced at Gu Ming, apparently surprised.


What does Gu Ming want me to do with the eight lines of lifespan cultivation? You, Gu Ming, seem to understand some things about lifespan cultivation. While others might not know what I’m doing, don’t you know? Why are you so eager?


The Unborn Man’s startled reaction quickly vanished, but this subtle action did not escape Gu Tang’s notice.


Gu Tang, the most intelligent among the four brothers, might not know what Gu Ming and the Unborn Man were hiding, but he could sense some kind of understanding between them. He frowned slightly but did not say anything, just silently taking note.


Rumble…!


Just as Gu Hai was about to dismiss the officials, the blessings cloud sea in the sky suddenly churned. The incarnations in the sky seemed to sense something bad.


Gu Hai’s incarnation led the rest. The officials’ incarnations showed cold expressions, appearing fierce as they looked at an uninvited guest at the edge of the blessings cloud sea.


At the edge of the blessings cloud sea, some blessings suddenly gathered, gradually forming a human figure. Gu Hai recognized this figure—it was Essence Genesis.


Essence Genesis’s incarnation? How could it appear above the Han Heavenly Dynasty’s blessings cloud sea?


The expression of Gu Hai’s incarnation turned dark as he gazed coldly at Essence Genesis’s incarnation.


“What do you want, Essence Genesis?” Gu Hai’s incarnation asked in an icy tone.


However, Essence Genesis paid no attention. After a while, Essence Genesis’s incarnation said coldly, “It’s almost time. All golden blessings dragons and incarnations, listen to me!”


“In five days, in Essence Genesis Hall’s plaza in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect, I intend to hold the United Rule Meet. Everyone is expected to come. Those who dare to not come will bear the consequences!” Essence Genesis’s tone was frigid.


Buzz!


After Essence Genesis finished speaking, his incarnation promptly disintegrated.


“What’s going on?” exclaimed the officials.


“Brother-in-Law, did Essence Genesis finish studying Hetu’s body? His incarnation could appear in all the blessings cloud sea in the world!” Long Wanyu appeared out of nowhere.


Gu Hai lifted his head, glancing at the blessings cloud sea and then towards the distant south, his expression darkening.


The blessings cloud sea was his preserve, a symbol of his dominion. Now, Essence Genesis’s incarnation could come and go at will?


“I have a report! A letter arrived from the Embroidered Uniform Guards at the Yan Heavenly Dynasty just now. The blessings cloud sea of the Yan Heavenly Dynasty suddenly changed. Essence Genesis’s incarnation appeared and spoke to the Yan Heavenly Emperor, saying the same words as just now! Inviting everyone to the United Rule Meet in the Myriad Age Daoist Sect in five days!”


“I have a report! Essence Genesis’s incarnation manifested above the blessings cloud sea at the Spirit Mountain’s Deity Seizing Hall.”


“I have a report! Essence Genesis’s incarnation manifested above the blessings cloud seas of the imperial dynasties bordering us.”



Various reports poured in. It had not happened just in the Han Heavenly Dynasty but in all the imperial dynasties or mid-tier sects and above in the land of the living. Essence Genesis’s incarnation appeared in their blessing clouds seas, speaking the same words at the same time earlier.


It was not just in the land of the living but also in the nether realm.


------


Above Everlasting Nether Capital’s blessings cloud sea, Essence Genesis’s presence was unmistakable.


“I have a report! Essence Genesis’s incarnation manifested above the Heavenly Demon Holy Land’s blessings cloud sea and announced the United Rule Meet at the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Essence Genesis Hall in five days!”


“I have a report! A blessings cloud sea appeared out of nowhere in the East Spiritual Fire Sea, and six vermilion birds manifested above the blessings cloud sea. Right after that, Essence Genesis’s incarnation appeared, announcing the United Rule Meet at the Myriad Age Daoist Sect’s Essence Genesis Hall in five days!”


“I have a report…”



In the nether realm, various reports quickly made their way to the skeleton Gu Hai.


All factions with at least the strength of mid-tier sects or imperial dynasties received Essence Genesis’s announcement that the United Rule Meet would take place five days later at Essence Genesis Hall.


Gu Hai’s initial anger gradually subsided. At the very least, this was not aimed solely at him.


“Essence Genesis? The United Rule Meet? Does he think that it is time?” Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.


------


The East Spiritual Fire Sea, the nether realm:


While the six Vermilion Bird Primes did not plan immediate revenge, gathering information was crucial. The best way was to summon all the avian-type animal spirits in the world.


One of the vermilion birds took out a bejeweled seal and gently activated it, releasing boundless blessings into the sky.


These were the blessings that Vermilion Bird Primes had sealed in the past; now, they hovered above the East Spiritual Fire Sea.


The avian-type animal spirits from back then had already declined, leaving the Vermilion Bird Primes.


Seven vermilion bird incarnations slowly appeared in the blessings cloud sea.


Bang!


A loud noise echoed as one of the vermilion bird incarnations suddenly scattered. Clearly, that Vermilion Bird Prime had already perished, and the blessings could no longer locate it.


“Qiqi is truly dead!” one of the vermilion birds said with a grim expression.


“When Master returns, we’ll seek revenge! Qiqi must be avenged!” another burly man said resolutely.


“Right!” The others nodded and clenched their fists.


Boom!


Just then, Essence Genesis’s incarnation appeared above their blessings cloud sea.


“Who is it?”


“What is this?”


The six Vermilion Bird Primes glared.


They saw Essence Genesis calmly issuing an announcement.


“The United Rule Meet? Such audacity! Who does this person think he is?” one of the vermilion birds grumbled indignantly.


“Wait, it’s not just our blessings cloud sea. Look, the blessings cloud seas of the four major factions in the nether realm also have his incarnation?”


“Who is this person? How can he connect to all the blessings cloud seas in the world?”


“Given this, the United Rule Meet five days later will gather most of the factions in the world. Should we go and see?”


“We must go! Eldest Brother, I’ll go!”


“I’m going too!”



The vermilion birds looked at Zhu Yiyi.


Zhu Yiyi remained silent for a moment before saying, “Master instructed us not to be too conspicuous. Second Younger Brother, Sixth Younger Brother, you should go!”


“Alright!” The vermilion birds nodded.


------


Yin Tiger Deity Hall, the Heavenly Demon Holy Land, the nether realm:


The Unrestrained Heavenly Demon looked skywards.


“Milord, Essence Genesis is too arrogant, isn’t he? The United Rule Meet? Does he want to dominate the world? Where does that leave us?” the Bellowing Griever Heavenly Demon sneered.


“Hah! The United Rule Meet? The Vermilion Bird Primes will also attend. I was originally thinking of how to invite them for a meeting. Now, there’s no need. Let’s go to Essence Genesis Hall!” 𝒻𝑟𝑒𝓮𝔀ℯ𝓫𝓃𝑜𝓋𝑒𝘭.𝑐𝓸𝓶


------


Great Desolation City, Yan Heavenly Dynasty, land of the living:


Ba stood at the entrance of Divine Flame Hall, gazing coldly at the vanishing Essence Genesis’s incarnation in the sky.


“Elder Sister, Essence Genesis sure is audacious. Could he be inviting all the experts of the world and then planning to dominate everyone at Essence Genesis Hall?” Jingwei asked curiously.


“I’m not sure yet, but he definitely wants something from us since he organized this United Rule Meet!” Ba replied, her voice serious.


“So, are we going?” Jingwei furrowed her brow.


“Why not? Haha! Since its establishment eight hundred thousand years ago, the Myriad Age Daoist Sect has always relied on external support, thinking they are invincible due to some heavenly protection and using that as their backer to scare people off. Little did everyone know, there’s someone like Essence Genesis hidden within it?” Ba’s eyes narrowed.


“Oh!” Jingwei nodded in confusion.


------


Deity Seizing Hall’s entrance, Spirit Mountain, the western region of the land of the living:


Jiangchen stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the distant Myriad Age Daoist Sect.


“Veritable Lord, has Essence Genesis gone mad? Inviting all the world’s experts? Does he really think he’s unrivaled in the world?” Long Aotian exclaimed in shock.


“That’s what makes it interesting, isn’t it?” Jiangchen smiled faintly.


“Urm…Veritable Lord, do you want to attend?” Long Aotian asked in surprise.


Long Aotian thought, Veritable Lord is the one who is truly unrivaled in the world. Does he want to attend because he can’t stand Essence Genesis’s arrogance and wants to disrupt the event?


“I want to go and see. The scene at Essence Genesis Hall five days from now will surely be spectacular!” Jiangchen chuckled.


The entire world was currently discussing this invitation from Essence Genesis because it was an invitation to the whole world.


Major sects and imperial dynasties alike were deep in discussions, analyzing the implications of Essence Genesis’s invitation.


The United Rule Meet? Was that not hinting at Essence Genesis’s desire to unite the world? Also, inviting experts from all corners of the world?


What was his plan?


Some sect leaders and sovereigns were indifferent, thinking that the Myriad Age Daoist Sect was too far away. Nevertheless, some sovereigns and sect masters prepared to investigate further.


------


The emperor’s study, Borderless Heavenly Capital:


A group of high-ranking Han Nation officials diligently analyzed the meaning behind Essence Genesis’s actions. However, no one could fathom his intentions.


“Your Holy Eminence, I’m willing to accompany Your Holy Eminence!” Kong Xuan was the first to speak.


“Your Holy Eminence, I’m willing to go!” the Mosquito Daoist chimed in.



The United Rule Meet taking place five days later attracted the attention of all the experts in the world, so it would be fraught with extreme peril. Nevertheless, the Han Nation officials were all eager to participate.
