Chapter 960: Primordial Book, Primordial Legion [Four Updates]
The battle in the Spiritual Realm concluded with an overwhelming victory for the Divine Martial Empire, marking the demise of the Spiritual Realm.
Before the war began, no one could have anticipated such an outcome.
Many had assumed the conflict would end with both sides stepping back, but it turned out to be fiercely fought, resulting in the annihilation of the powerful existence known as the Spirit God.
The name of the Great Emperor of Divine Martial once again shook the universe, revealing him as a ruthless being who could even erase the Spirit God.
This battle had significant implications, not only erasing a Spiritual Realm but also adding a new variable to the already changing situation.
Originally, the Feathered Divine Dynasty was the strongest, and the Ancient Great Emperor also harbored ambitions to establish his dynasty. Now, with the sudden rise of the Divine Martial Empire like a comet, was a tripartite balance of power about to form?
And with the current strength of the Divine Martial Empire, the cost of attacking them would be substantial.
On the journey back from the expedition.
With the establishment of the Enlightenment Book, the Spiritual Realm continued to exist within the Divine Martial Empire as a part of the empire.
This universe was left by an existence known as the Spirit God, and while this war had destroyed all the spirits in the Spiritual Realm, it did not damage their essence.
Those spirits who believed in the Spirit God naturally did not remain. They were all eradicated.
However, he could give birth to new spirits with their own spirit nature, fresh as blank sheets and entirely loyal to the Divine Martial Empire, willing to bear this responsibility.
Chu Yuan agreed, for indeed without spirits, it was just a pile of stones, plants, trees, and remnants of soldiers.
Upon returning to the empire, he used the Immortal Spirit Door to douse the Spiritual Realm with a vigorous flow of ethereal spirit breath, making it dazzling and hazy, akin to the celestial realm.
"The great expansion of the empire has arrived!"
This battle was of immense significance, not only deterring the universe but also distributing countless treasures collected over the long history of the Spiritual Realm, by Chu Yuan.
"Ling'er has also cultivated to the realm of immortality."
The Enlightenment Book within the Spiritual Realm was directly given to Medicine Ling'er by Chu Yuan, and with this power, she stepped directly into the realm of immortality.
All four empresses, Nine Nether and Medicine Ling'er, had reached the realm of immortality.
Shangguan Xian and Luo Yueying were also envious; they too wished to cultivate to immortality, but they flatly refused Chu Yuan's offer to help them with immortal crystals, saying instead that such treasures should be reserved for the empire's brave warriors.
They knew, as long as their emperor could continue his unbeatable prowess, reaching immortality was only a matter of time. As the people closest to the emperor, why worry about not breaking through?
Chu Yuan did not say much. He marked the immortal crystals for contributions and let the people of the empire zealously cultivate, exchanging them for their contributions.
Time quickly moved to the forty-sixth year of Divine Martial, years having passed.
The universe was vast, and the act of annihilating the Spiritual Realm fermented more intensely over these years, yet, strangely, the Feathered Divine Dynasty had been in a state of calm during this time.
Zhu Fengfeng had also cultivated to immortality.
Through the years, Chu Yuan took out a massive amount of divine items from the treasure vault of the Spiritual Realm, allowing Xia Han to cultivate to the third tier of immortality and Bone God to break through to the second tier.
"Though I have cultivated to the third tier, I am still far from comparing to my master's strength back then, who was as powerful as a Divine King of the Feathered Divine Dynasty."
Xia Han was not proud.
There were too many divine items suitable for cultivating spirit nature in the Spiritual Realm. The Enlightenment Book broke through to the second tier, The Book of Martial Arts also reached immortality, and even the Tremor was now at the realm of immortality.
It can be said.
These years of eradicating a Spiritual Realm and plundering their wealth, along with massive production of Divine Elixirs using the Taiyi Pill Furnace, were years of rapid development for the Divine Martial Empire.
Many new spirits were also born within the Spiritual Realm, but all were already devoid of the Spirit God's memories, showing only loyalty to the Great Emperor of Divine Martial.
"Forget the past, reshape anew."
Chu Yuan watched the new spirits within the Spiritual Realm and nodded.
"Ding! The host has completed the side quest to create the Primordial Book, obtaining one million five hundred thousand Destiny Points, immortal Divine Artifact advancement card, Divine Abilities fruit x2048, immortal divine crystals x2, Primordial Legion, Primordial Shield, and one random draw opportunity."
On one day in the forty-sixth year of Divine Martial, the long-awaited and intensely anticipated Primordial Book was finally successfully created by Chu Yuan!
The appearance of the Primordial Book was like an ancient scroll, colored primordially and enveloped in a hazy mist with occasional flashes of primordial blood lightning.
Though it was but a book, it was extremely heavy. Held in hand, it felt like holding an entire primordial universe, and ordinary immortals could neither utilize it nor even lift it.
He flipped open the Primordial Book, each page vast like a tiny universe, but many parts were blank, needing his contribution to enhance the power of the Primordial Book.
He turned to a page containing mighty power and immediately saw a vast universe within the Primordial Book, no less significant than the Map of All Spirits.
Moreover, the universe within the Primordial Book could continuously expand, devour divine entities, and grow stronger, truly like the Primordial Universe, embracing heaven and earth.
This aspect was what Chu Yuan valued most, embracing heaven and earth, continuing to grow stronger.
One page, one heaven and earth, this is the Primordial Book, and even more so, a book of universe and earth!
"Primordial? Heaven and earth are profound; primordial means the essence of heaven and earth, heavy and vast."
Chu Yuan also saw a million people appear within the Primordial Book!
These million people had solemn expressions, dressed in primordial armor, each robust like primordial earth, immovable like mountains, forming an army.
Clearly, this was the Primordial Army mentioned in the side reward!
Each member of this Primordial Army was at least a holy divine being!
A million holy divines!
Chu Yuan's gaze immediately fell on a man in the front, thick and heavy like a mountain, resembling a stone statue, who was the commander of the Primordial Army, with a strength that amazingly reached the third level of immortality.
"Primordial Commander, leading the Primordial Army, greets the Great Emperor!"
The entire Primordial Army knelt down.
"The power of the Primordial Book!"
Chu Yuan understood.
Although a long time ago, the system had rewarded the War God Army and the Prison Guard Army, Chu Yuan knew that the Primordial Army was different from these two armies, being bred from the power of the Primordial Book.
The limit on their number was not merely a million.
But currently, with the power of this page, the Primordial Book could only sustain the existence of a million soldiers of the Primordial Army.
As the power of the Primordial Book strengthened, page after page of heaven and earth filled, it could breed even more, two million, three hundred million, ten million, or even over a hundred million!
And now, there was just one page of Primordial heaven and earth in the Primordial Book.
This Primordial Commander was like the artifact spirit within the Primordial Book, where the spirit resided, seemingly possessing an innate spiritual pearl.
This was what made him different from the War God Commander and the Prison Guard Commander, genuinely having his own life.
If he died in battle, the Primordial Book would also suffer corresponding severe damage.
And the more soldiers of the Primordial Army who died in battle, naturally, they could be reborn and split within the Primordial Book.
However, the power of the Primordial Book would also be weakened, and if the losses were too severe, a page of the universe might suffer destruction and collapse.
The Primordial Book is a divine entity with no clear level.
"Rise." Chu Yuan said, "Great Commander, lead the Primordial Army to train in the Primordial Book."
He looked towards the reward of the Primordial Shield.
This was not a divine artifact but a divine ability that anyone could cultivate. It was about using one's own mana to condense a Primordial Shield, thick and sturdy, usable during a major army's charge and advance.
This divine ability was very practical, and everyone must learn it.
Immortal artifact promotion card, Chu Yuan upgraded the Stepping Boots to an immortal artifact, and now only the last piece had not been fully upgraded, but the power it released was already sufficient to contend with the weakest of the third level immortals.
After the seven pieces, it would be truly complete!
"The strength of the Empire is rapidly developing!"
Chu Yuan held the Primordial Book and wore the Emperor Sword, seated on the imperial throne, constantly pondering the future development path of the Empire.
Suddenly, his eyes opened in shock, a screen appeared before him, flashing large characters!
"Your Majesty, a drastic change has occurred in the Wilderness!"
