644: Chapter 644 I'm leaving, going home!
"This is an immortal emperor artifact, named the 'realm-suppressing cauldron'."
Gu Changge spoke in a flat tone, as if he were merely handing over an ordinary object.
"Refine it and use it as the core heavy treasure to guard this continent. With the power of the great array, you can push the cauldron's might to its limit. Even if an Immortal Emperor arrives in person, you will be able to deal with them calmly."
As he spoke, the realm-suppressing cauldron turned into a streak of light and slowly flew toward Jimie.
Jimie's whole body stiffened, and he subconsciously reached out with both hands to catch it. The cauldron felt warm to the touch, yet it contained a weight as heavy as a mountain; it was the texture of the Immortal Emperor's Dao Rhyme merging with the object's Origin.
He looked up at Gu Changge, his eyes filled with shock and awe. His lips moved slightly, but for a moment, he didn't know how to speak.
As a newly Breakthrough Quasi-Immortal Emperor, he never imagined he would be directly gifted an immortal emperor artifact!
Xiaobai watched from the side with wide eyes, his Dragon tail unconsciously tapping the Void Realm behind him. The envy in his eyes was almost overflowing.
That was an immortal emperor artifact!
It was hard to say if the entire Immortal Realm even had one, yet his Master had just given it to Jimie so casually. Such a grand gesture was simply inconceivable!
Gu Changge took in Xiaobai's expression, a faint, imperceptible smile curling at the corners of his mouth.
With another flick of his finger, a pitch-black long spear entwined with Dragon patterns appeared out of thin air, its tip flashing with a cold light that tore through the Void Realm.
Similarly, a dense Immortal Emperor's Emperor Might rushed toward them. Distinct from the heavy nature of the realm-suppressing cauldron, this spear appeared even more sharp and overbearing, as if it could pierce through all barriers.
"Xiaobai," Gu Changge said, tossing the long spear toward him.
"This is the 'Realm-Piercing Spear.' It matches your Dragon body and the Dao of slaughter. Refine it."
Xiaobai's pupils shrank suddenly, and the envy on his face instantly turned into wild joy. His Dragon eyes shone as bright as the scorching sun!
He subconsciously soared into the air, his Dragon claws firmly catching the Realm-Piercing Spear. The icy touch from the spear's shaft and the kindred Dragon power made his whole body feel comfortable, and the Quasi-Immortal Emperor power within him couldn't help but boil.
"Thank you, Master!"
Xiaobai's voice trembled with excitement, and his Dragon tail wagged like a windmill. The joy of his previous Breakthrough to Quasi-Immortal Emperor was not even a ten-thousandth of what he felt now.
"Master, you are too good! I will definitely refine it well. If anyone dares to invade in the future, I'll pierce through their dao foundation with one spear strike!"
He fondled the Dragon patterns on the spear's shaft lovingly, feeling the terrifying power contained within, wishing he could find an opponent to test its might immediately.
Ferocity and excitement intertwined on his face, making him look like a child who had just received a favorite toy.
Jimie looked at the Realm-Piercing Spear in Xiaobai's hand, then looked down at the realm-suppressing cauldron in his own palm, feeling even more grateful for Gu Changge's generous treatment.
Two Quasi-Immortal Emperors, each receiving an immortal emperor artifact—this kind of lineup would be enough to intimidate any region, even in the core areas of the Immortal Realm.
Seven days passed in a flash.
Under the watch of Jimie and Xiaobai, the originally turbulent Ten Thousand Immortals Continent slowly restored order.
The various major forces that had surrendered did not dare to harbor any secondary thoughts. The remaining Disciples of the Myriad Immortals Sect were completely won over, the reconstruction work proceeded in an orderly manner, and the entire continent was as stable as a rock.
The overall situation was settled, with no more worries.
Gu Changge nodded in satisfaction and turned to look at Su Hanzhou:
"Su Hanzhou, you possess the Taichu Divine Palace Legacy, have no ties to the forces of the Immortal Realm, and are familiar with ancient clues."
"Stay behind to assist Jimie in integrating the Myriad Immortals Sect while simultaneously gathering information on the Immortal Realm. If there are any traces or records related to Daoist Zizhu, send word to me immediately."
Su Hanzhou felt a jolt in his heart, knowing this was Gu Changge's trust. He hurriedly bowed in acceptance: "This Junior obeys! I will certainly not fail Senior's trust."
Gu Changge nodded and said no more. He left behind the remnant souls of Su Hanzhou and Yue Liuli, gave Jimie a few more instructions,
And then, taking Xiaobai with him, he took a step forward and disappeared into the horizon of the continent's sky.
He went to the former site of the Taichu Divine Palace, which had completely turned into a strange void.
There was nothing there. Gu Changge stood at the edge of that void and sensed it silently for a long time. In the end, he only frowned slightly, said nothing, and turned to leave.
Over the next few days, Gu Changge was in no hurry to return to Xuanhuang. Instead, he took Xiaobai and traveled through the core areas of the Immortal Realm and its surroundings in a manner akin to a leisurely stroll.
He did not deliberately hide his tracks, nor was he ostentatious; he simply walked through the markets of the immortal cities like an ordinary Cultivator.
In his palm, a gray egg floated quietly. It was the same egg that had resisted all the way before, fearing to step into the Immortal Realm.
Now that they were in the heart of the Immortal Realm, it no longer showed its previous panicked trembling. The dark patterns on the eggshell were dim and lusterless, without a hint of aura or reaction.
Gu Changge occasionally rubbed the cold eggshell with his fingertips. He was truly fed up with this broken egg; it was playing dead again.
They went to Wangchuan, the most prosperous giant city on the Nine Heavens Continent, and tasted a feast cooked with Immortal Beast flesh and immortal fruit spirit brew at the "Wanzhen Pavilion," which was said to gather treasures from the myriad worlds.
He wandered through the Dao-Seeking Market where Cultivators gathered, casually buying a few ancient treasures that contained special Law fragments or were crafted with ingenious techniques, though they were of little use to him, treating them as collectibles to play with.
During this time, Gu Changge took Xiaobai to a large-scale auction. He did not reveal his identity, participating only as an ordinary VIP.
Various strange objects appeared at the auction, causing different forces to compete for prices. Gu Changge only bid casually when a few items appeared.
He bought a withered tree branch that looked like scorched wood but contained a faint but extremely pure life fluctuation.
And a dark red stone with an obscure aura that even the auction house could not identify specifically, only labeling it as a suspected remnant of an ancient god or demon.
These items were not the top-tier grand finales of the auction, but they were not cheap either, drawing some probing Divine Thoughts from several private booths.
However, they were all quietly blocked by a sliver of powerful aura inadvertently leaked by Xiaobai, and there was no further trouble.
Having strolled and seen enough,
Gu Changge took Xiaobai back to the Ten Thousand Immortals Continent. Looking down at the magnificent mountains and rivers with churning seas of clouds, his Divine Thought had already spread out, covering hundreds of thousands of miles of the Chaos void around the continent.
He could clearly perceive seven or eight hidden Divine Thoughts secretly spying.
There was the cold aura of the Gui Xu Sect's remnant forces, the bloody fluctuations of the Blood Demon Clan, and several probes from small to medium-sized forces in the Immortal Realm.
Clearly, they were all coveting this newly claimed territory, wanting to test the background of the new owner.
With the Great Array of Cosmic Stars and Primordial Chaos and the realm-suppressing cauldron in place, these clowns could not cause any trouble. It was a good opportunity for Jimie to practice and stabilize his control over the Ten Thousand Immortals Continent.
A cold arc curled at the corner of Gu Changge's mouth, and he raised an eyebrow slightly, his fingertip lightly tapping the Void Realm: "These scumbags can be left for Jimie to handle."
He withdrew his Divine Thought and looked down at the gray egg in his palm, which still showed no movement, as if it had truly become an ordinary mortal stone.
"The waters of the Immortal Realm are deeper than they appear. The powerhouses hidden in the shadows after the Immortal Realm shattered, the invisible hand behind the mystery of the Taichu Divine Palace's disappearance..."
Gu Changge shook his head, tucked it into his sleeve, and said to Xiaobai: "Let's go, home."
"Yes, Master!" Xiaobai replied, a flash of excitement at returning home appearing in his eyes.
