Chapter 529 Resurrection
Chapter 529 Resurrection
Emperor Yuan clenched his fists, his knuckles cracking, straightened his back, and the confident light in his eyes shone again.
It was a kind of ecstatic joy, like surviving a catastrophe.
He had previously thought everything was over, that he had waited in vain for this lifetime, and that his path to enlightenment in this great world was about to end in failure.
But now, things have taken a turn for the better, and a new path has opened up before us.
"Hahaha..." Emperor Yuan laughed, a hearty and unrestrained laugh.
"I knew it! My fate as Emperor Yuan shouldn't be so bitter. Heaven's will is still with me, the throne is still with me. In this life, who can stop me?"
His gaze sharpened, hardened, and became more confident.
He was still the same Emperor Yuan, the same spirited Emperor Yuan.
He proved that he would rule the throne of this golden age, as he himself had declared.
……
After Emperor Taixuan attained enlightenment, he returned to the Heavenly Court.
He walked on clouds, surrounded by seven-colored immortal light, and with each step he took, Dao patterns bloomed in the void.
The iconic golden avenue of the Heavenly Court had already appeared. Jiang Hao sat in the main seat, with Immortal King Gu Feng on his left, and Immortal Lord Taixu, Heavenly Venerable Lingbao, and Heavenly Venerable Yuanshi on either side.
The group was having a discussion.
To be precise, they are preparing for one thing—to resurrect the Shinto monks who died in the last war.
"Master." Emperor Taixuan entered the main hall, respectfully clasped his hands, and then turned to Gu Feng and the others, "Senior Gu, Senior Taixu, Senior Lingbao, Senior Yuanshi."
He adopted a very humble posture, without any airs of an emperor.
Jiang Hao nodded and smiled, "Get up."
Lingbao Tianzun and the others nodded in return, their eyes filled with admiration.
Immortal King Gu Feng looked Emperor Tai Xuan up and down, a look of admiration flashing in his eyes.
"The Seven-Colored Immortal Golden Holy Spirit is a sight to behold, a rare occurrence throughout the ages. Few throughout history have surpassed your foundation and fortune."
The Immortal Golden Spirit was born with extraordinary advantages. The combination of seven kinds of immortal gold was an incredible feat. Even an Immortal King who had transformed and rebuilt his cultivation dared not claim to surpass him.
Lingbao Tianzun stroked his beard and laughed, "It's not just that there aren't many people; just in terms of innate foundation, you could probably rank in the top ten throughout the ages."
The Primordial Celestial Venerable nodded: "The combination of seven kinds of immortal metals is unprecedented. When you were born, even the heavens and earth trembled. We old fellows also benefited from it."
This is the truth.
When the Seven-Colored Immortal Gold took form and was born, Dao runes filled the sky, displaying its unique Dao rhythm. Even Jiang Hao and his group of powerful individuals gained something from it, which shows how rare it was.
This is the benefit of the birth of the Immortal Golden Holy Spirit: Heaven and Earth will bestow auspicious omens, and the Great Dao will grant opportunities.
Emperor Taixuan humbly replied, "You seniors are too kind. I was just lucky to be born with seven-colored immortal gold. But luck is luck, and strength is strength. I have just attained the Dao and become an emperor. I still have a long way to go and I must continue to work hard. All of you seniors here are role models for me to learn from."
This wasn't just polite talk; it was what he truly thought. The people before him—the Celestial King, the Mortal Immortal, and the Seven-Life Mortal Immortal—were all beings he needed to look up to.
He had just become emperor and was still very inexperienced in front of this group of seniors.
Everyone laughed upon hearing this. This junior is neither arrogant nor impatient; not bad.
At that moment, footsteps sounded outside the hall, and Qin Ming and his group strode in.
"Junior Brother Tai Xuan!" Di Chen clasped his hands in a fist salute and smiled, "Congratulations on attaining the Dao and becoming Emperor!"
"To attain the Dao and become an Emperor through Immortal Metal, that's quite an eye-opener!" Qin Ming clicked his tongue in admiration. "Truly terrifying! Seven types of Immortal Metal combined into one, your physical body is even harder than mine. Let's spar sometime."
Wan Qing smiled and nodded, which was considered a greeting.
Emperor Taixuan quickly returned the greeting and inquired after everyone.
"Senior Brother Di Chen, Senior Brother Wan Qing..."
Looking at the people in front of him, Tai Xuan was filled with emotion. His Seven-Colored Immortal Golden Body had an unparalleled foundation throughout the ages.
I thought I would stand out among my master's disciples.
But now, upon closer inspection, he realized he had been overthinking things.
Qin Ming, the Primordial Emperor, possesses an innate sacred body and Dao embryo. His talent as a Celestial King is insufficient to describe his abilities, and his combat power is heaven-defying.
Emperor Chen is related to the Immortal King; he possesses immense power and unparalleled talent.
Wan Qing, transformed from a chaotic green lotus, was reborn as a Celestial King.
There was actually a group of disciples at my level.
Who would believe that?
Emperor Taixuan shook his head inwardly. His own sect was truly abnormal; even the Immortal King talent was only at the entry level.
However, this is a good thing, because with so many powerful senior brothers, he has someone to strive for.
After chatting for a while, everyone dispersed, while Jiang Hao remained in the hall to continue his work of reviving the divine cultivators.
"Now we can revive these little guys."
Jiang Hao waved his hand, and different fruit position marks appeared in his hand.
Those who sacrificed themselves in the battle were all heroes, and Jiang Hao would never forget them. Those who survived were all rescued and given generous rewards.
Aside from those who are cultivators of the divine path, there's nothing that can be done about the others who have died. The only thing we can do is to honor them as world heroes and give their descendants and relatives the rewards they deserve.
Now, what Jiang Hao needs to do is revive the divine cultivators.
The last time the Immortal Realm invaded, too many people died in the Three Realms.
Three snakes, Qingxuanzi and his disciples, and many other Taoist cultivators.
Their physical bodies shattered and their primordial spirits dissipated, but the divine path cultivators had their own advantages.
Their souls were attached to the positions conferred by Jiang Hao.
As long as Jiang Hao lives and his position remains intact, they can return.
This is the greatest advantage of being a cultivator of the divine path: one can be resurrected after death.
Of course, the cost was not small.
Theocratic monks are bound by their spiritual attainment and by their faith.
This is unacceptable to monks who have dreams and seek transcendence.
But for those cultivators who only seek peace and longevity, this is an immense blessing.
Jiang Hao formed hand seals, and beams of light flew from his fingertips, disappearing into the light spots.
The light grew brighter and brighter, and the light spots grew larger and larger.
In the void, blurry human figures began to materialize.
The first to coalesce were the three snakes.
The snake leader's body took shape first, with glossy black scales and sharp eyes.
The second snake followed closely behind, thinner than the eldest, but more agile.
The third snake finally took shape, its round body resembling a ball, with a bewildered expression.
"I...I'm dead, aren't I? How am I still alive?" Snake Third looked down at himself, his fat face full of disbelief.
They were stunned for a moment, then saw Jiang Hao, and their eyes instantly reddened.
"Heavenly Emperor!" Snake Third was the first to rush forward, his chubby body kneeling on the ground, tears streaming down his face.
"I knew you, Heavenly Emperor, would protect us. Big brother, second brother, it was the Heavenly Emperor who resurrected us."
The fat third brother shouted excitedly.
The two snake leaders cried out in gratitude, "Thank you, Heavenly Emperor! Thank you for reviving us!"
"Haha, no need to be so polite." Jiang Hao waved his hand and said, "Get up. You fought for the Three Realms and died heroically. It is only right that you be resurrected."
The three snakes stood up, still unable to stop wiping away tears.
Snake Third's fat face scrunched up, and tears streamed down his face.
"Heavenly Emperor, I thought I would never see you again, sob sob sob..." He cried like a child.
Jiang Hao smiled and patted the fat snake head of the third fat man, comforting him as if he were a child.
This little guy is as cute and adorable as ever.
