Martial God is not a Realm, but a title, a title once unique to Chu Grand Ancestor alone. Now that Chen Yuan calls himself Martial God, doesn’t that an he already possesses the strength of Chu Grand Ancestor?
Only then did Su Ming hurry over, and then made a tentative probe.
No need to exchange blows; with just a simple test, he could already sense what set Chen Yuan apart—regarding his mighty pressure as if it were nothing—which made him believe it sowhat.
"Old Hall Master Su, please."
Chen Yuan’s expression did not change. He stretched out his hand and pointed lightly, and a cup of swirling Immortal Tea then floated in the void, its surroundings wreathed in a Martial Divine Rules aura where two systems had rged into one.
Su Ming reached out to take it, and the instant he touched it, his expression changed drastically as he snapped his gaze toward Chen Yuan.
"Please."
The power of Rules dissolved into nothingness, and the teacup fell into Su Ming’s hand, but he could not feel the least bit pleased. Instead, his heart was in constant upheaval, filled with shock.
He had tested; this was Chen Yuan’s response.
Taking the cup, Su Ming pinched up the lid, scraped the fragrant tea, sat down at the lower right of Chen Yuan, and asked in a low voice:
"King Yan said he wished to join hands with this old man in a great undertaking. I do not know... what it is?"
"Does Old Hall Master know of the Immortal Domain?"
Chen Yuan went straight to the point.
"Naturally." Su Ming nodded. All Immortal Sects in this era have so understanding of the Immortal Domain, let alone soone like him who has lived for over a thousand years.
"Then has Old Hall Master felt that heaven and earth have been sowhat off in recent days?"
Su Ming furrowed his brows:
"The Heaven and Earth Rules have beco much clearer."
"The Immortal Domain is going to descend in the near future."
"What!"
Hearing Chen Yuan’s words, Su Ming’s pupils instantly shrank, and his state of mind suddenly beca sowhat unsettled.
"Are these words true?"
Su Ming knew the Immortal Domain was a colossal existence, incomparably terrifying, far from sothing so‑called Immortal Sects could compare to. If the Immortal Domain descended... then the current struggle for supremacy in the world would seem like a joke.
Thus, his expression beca incomparably grave.
"The sole reason I specially invited Old Hall Master here this ti was to discuss this matter." Chen Yuan raised his cup and lightly sipped a mouthful of Qi.
Seeing Chen Yuan’s calm expression, Su Ming narrowed his eyes, already realizing a few things:
"Then King Yan’s inviting this old man here is to resist the Immortal Domain?"
"That’s right."
"This... forgive this old man for being powerless...." Su Ming fell silent for a mont and declined Chen Yuan’s invitation. The Heavenly Demon Hall cooperating with Chen Yuan was a bet that he could beco Emperor in the future and fulfill their agreent.
But that did not an they had to confront the Immortal Domain. He knew full well what weight he carried—rely the Human Immortal Realm—and his physical Essence and vital energy were draining away, his Primordial Spirit far inferior to before.
How could he possibly resist the Immortal Domain?
One must know that the Immortal Domain very likely possesses Earth Immortal mighty ones, as well as the legendary Heavenly Immortal Supres.
Chen Yuan was neither hurried nor slow, and said softly:
"If this king is not mistaken, Old Hall Master’s lifespan is probably nearing its end, yes?"
At the Human Immortal Realm, even if one employed so Secret Techniques, it is impossible to obtain true longevity. Most lifespans are only around eight hundred years. Su Ming was already a figure from a thousand years ago, of the sa generation as Chu Grand Ancestor.
Adding in the ti needed for his growth, he had surely already exceeded one thousand years.
He was not like Lu Chengfeng, who had already stepped into the Five Elents Chaoyuan Realm, his lifespan increased once more; Su Ming’s must now be close to its limit.
Old Ancestor Su Ming’s face suddenly changed, as if a secret buried in the depths of his heart had been laid bare. His hands gripped the armrests at his sides tightly, and he said in a deep voice:
"What does King Yan an by these words?"
"Do you not wish to know the secret by which the Immortal Domain endures?"
"Hm?"
Su Ming was taken aback, feeling sowhat surprised by Chen Yuan’s words.
"The Immortal Domain... the Immortal Domain... that place is different from the Human World. According to Chen’s understanding and deduction, the Immortal Domain must possess certain Immortal Spirit objects, and is naturally not lacking in Divine Origin.
There may even be a road leading to the Heavenly Immortal Realm. Since Old Hall Master’s lifespan is about to co to an end, why not wager once, fight for it? If you succeed, longevity may be within reach.
Furthermore, when the Immortal Domain descends upon the mortal world, it must have designs, and may even slaughter all Immortals of the Six Realms. Even if Old Hall Master remains neutral, you will hardly be able to escape disaster in the future."
Su Ming’s brows knit tightly, sowhat moved:
"But the Immortal Domain is far too powerful. This old man..."
"However powerful, was it not still stord up into the Ninth Heaven by Chu Grand Ancestor back then? This king has already beco Martial God, able to battle Earth Immortal mighty ones, and there are other Earth Immortal mighty ones to assist . With several Human Immortals in support, why should we not fight?
To sit and wait for death is sothing only fools would do. If we can overthrow the Immortal Domain, might we not gain the secret of immortality..."
Su Ming was not like Lu Chengfeng and Moluo, who bore deep displeasure toward the Immortal Domain, nor like the Old Heavenly Master, who had a sense of righteousness in his heart and refused to be the Immortal Domain’s puppet. He had to be lured with benefit.
"How many Immortals has King Yan gathered?"
"All Immortals of the Central Plains are now willing to act: the Old Heavenly Master of Wudang Mountain, City Lord Ye of Martial Emperor City, Senior Moluo of the Taoist Divine Palace, and another Earth Immortal mighty one.
Adding this king, that makes five already. If Old Hall Master joins, then it will be six. Besides that, there are more than a dozen Yang God True Monarchs, and a million elite soldiers...."
Su Ming’s gaze flickered, and he suddenly spoke in a low voice:
"If this old man still refuses, what will King Yan do?"
Chen Yuan stared at him for a mont, then smiled faintly:
"Old Hall Master previously guarded Zhen Nan Pass; Chen has held you in deep admiration for that. Alas..."
"Hehe, this old man understands." Su Ming rose to his feet and cupped his hands:
"In that case, this old man will accompany King Yan in making this wager, to gamble for long‑lasting life!"
"Old Hall Master is straightforward."
"I do not know when King Yan plans to make a move?"
