Chapter 2588 - 2553: Empress
The twilight glows faintly, surrounded by the rules of the End of Dharma Path, various anomalies all arise.
This is the pinnacle creation of the End of Dharma Path simulating the Time Path, using End of Dharma Rules to freeze time and space, sealing the Emperor-like Realm beings within.
This is the Empress once beside the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor.
"How many years has it been?"
"I don’t remember, many years indeed... "
Jiang Ding gazed at the woman within the Dusk Crystal, whispering to himself.
This woman accompanied him for many years, from their encounter at the Ten Thousand Laws Celestial Pivot, then achieving the True Immortal status through arduous efforts, pushing horizontally through the Endless Starry Sky to establish an Immortal Dynasty, dealing with numerous internal affairs in the Immortal Dynasty, always busy with scarce moments for rest.
In the immensely developed production power of the Supreme Great Sun Immortal Tao Industry Crown, her substantial contribution is solid.
Especially after many old friends fell asleep, with a lifespan of thirty million years, she accompanied the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor alone for tens of millions of years, providing him with some solace in this lonely Endless Starry Sky, letting him know that besides himself, there was another person, gradually adapting to the desolate loneliness of the immortal.
Finally, it was the Supreme Great Sun Ancient Emperor who sealed her alone.
Now, billions of years have passed, back to the human world, finally meeting her once again.
A faint yet genuine joy arose in Jiang Ding’s heart.
Such fluctuations in emotions have rarely been seen over the years; until the last moment, he even thought his Dao Heart would remain forever like a mirror, never causing a ripple.
Clang!
The sound of a sword resounded.
The Dusk Crystal melted away like snow, gently revealing the figure of the woman inside.
She slept peacefully, her skin like snow, somewhat fragile, with black hair cascading like ink on both cheeks, deeply asleep, sweetly dreaming, despite being very timid, she was exceptionally at ease here, sleeping soundly, oblivious to the world around.
There was no tension in her body, completely unlike the vigilance of Great Sun Bright Light Sword Emperor or Yuan Deng warriors and others.
Once Yuan Deng people awaken, they immediately possess combat strength, able to quickly assemble an army formation to push through domains, their strength swiftly recovering to peak, truly formidable survivors of countless battles.
She, on the other hand, is utterly weak, without the demeanor of a strong individual, with little intuitive sensitivity to battle, mostly akin to the existence in stories where the weak prevail over the strong.
Just relaxed like being at home.
"Wake up."
"Don’t sleep anymore, it’s been so long."
Jiang Ding gently flicked her smooth forehead.
No response.
So he flicked again.
"Mm~ It hurts!"
"So painful!"
Fusang Empress reluctantly opened her eyes, rubbing them, yawning, sleepily saying: "Your Majesty, where has the Golden Era reached?"
Golden Era.
She instinctively assumed this to be the Golden Era, without a shred of doubt, because she always believed the person before her would accomplish everything.
"Just beginning, perhaps."
"I am undefeated in the world, the strongest in the Endless Starry Sky, yet indeed not undefeated; decades later, I will be besieged by many equally powerful Forbidden Area Ancient Emperors."
Jiang Ding smiled and said.
Swish!
"Decades!!!"
"Ah!"
Fusang Empress suddenly opened her eyes wide, round and staring: "That’s impossible!"
"Your Majesty, aren’t you exceptionally good at concealment, extremely timid? How could you be besieged by so many without possessing overwhelming power?"
She exclaimed.
In her mind, the Sword Emperor in the Forbidden Zone seems different from what others perceive.
"Extremely timid?"
Jiang Ding’s expression turned dark.
How could this describe a Sword Emperor, objectively?
"It’s no big deal.
"Failing to become immortal merely ends in dying sooner or later; living a few more days holds no meaning."
Jiang Ding glared at her.
"Indeed."
Fusang Empress thought it made sense.
She yawned again, slowly sitting up, her Divine Sense instinctively connecting to the Great Dream Sword Realm governance center, starting to receive various historical inheritances, current Endless Starry Sky pattern information, beginning self-inspection of the Great Dream Sword Realm, identifying bureaucrats in organization, agriculture, military, industrial sectors.
Immortal Dynasty politics consists of managing the bureaucrats among various levels of the Dynasty’s cultivators, as long as the bureaucratic team is managed well, major errors are unlikely.
"Oh, after we left, many Taoism traditions’ Ancient Emperors were born, our cultivator elite teams greatly strengthened, these are all very reliable strong individuals... wait!"
"Yueyin Ancient Emperor!"
Fusang Empress’s beautiful eyes slightly narrowed.
Even without reading further intelligence, merely relying on instinct, she already sensed a major threat from this Ancient Emperor, several strands of hair slightly rising, like a cat.
Yet, on the surface, she remained calm, without any abnormal expression.
She gazed normally past the name of Yueyin Ancient Emperor, finished studying her various intelligence, then continued reviewing all sorts of information of future Endless Starry Sky patterns.
This is her innate ability, her path.
Her path is to govern the Immortal Dynasty, intricately linked with destiny, cause and effect, naturally adept at organizing politics, reconciling various factions, branches, and powerful figures within the Dynasty, not paying much attention to combat power, chiefly relying on summoning others, calling numerous Dynasty strong individuals, armies, or summoning the Sword Emperor.
However, soon after, Fusang Empress’s eyebrows slightly furrowed, a hint of headache.
"Your Majesty,"
"The Golden Era’s various causes and variables are excessively complex, exceeding my Immortal Technique limits, cannot handle it, efficiency will be reduced to around eighty percent of the original."
Fusang Empress was somewhat discouraged, then looked expectantly at the green-clothed youth.
Governance of the Immortal Dynasty, organizing Endless Starry Sky politics, is never merely about personal talent, wisdom, adaptability, it’s also about Taoism tradition, Dao Foundation path, tightly linked with the Great Dao, Divine Sense, Immortal Body, computation power, and other Immortal Wisdom achievements of the cultivators.
Evidently, Fusang Empress’s Dao Foundation easily handles governance of the First Supreme Great Sun Immortal Dynasty, managing the Golden Era’s politics seems a bit stretched, efficiency will be reduced, although it still far exceeds many Dynasty’s political capabilities, it cannot achieve perfect governance.
"Mm."
"I will lend you some of my Divine Soul Computational Power."
Jiang Ding anticipated this, slightly nodded, handing her a scripture titled "Fusang Sun Immortal Scripture Draft": "The inheritance of Fusang Holy Land has gaps, I am the fourth-generation Forbidden Area Ancient Emperor, life energy one billion two hundred fifty million years, your destiny and cause and effect with mine are deeply intertwined, it shouldn’t be limited to thirty million years of life energy."
"This might be a possibility, but it lacks completeness, requires time to be perfected, perhaps Yueyin Ancient Emperor can supplement key inheritance, that’s a matter for later."
"First, comprehend this scripture."
"Your Fusang Holy Land’s path, the most critical part, requires you to break through."
The limit of Fusang Holy Land’s scripture is to become an Ancient Emperor’s Tao partner, thirty million years of life energy, this is already a miracle, an alternative special path, but still not enough, the road ahead like an abyss.
Fortunately, this is a Golden Era, with abundant Immortal Technology literature and heritage, there is a considerable possibility of breakthrough.
"Mm, Your Majesty!"
Fusang Empress’s eyes instantly brightened, she suddenly embraced the green-clothed youth.
