192: The Cangwu world merges into the Jiang family's domain.

The Emperor Immortal Great World.

The sky today was exceptionally oppressive.

It wasn't because dark clouds obscured the sun, nor was it the setting sun; rather, a shadow so vast it could suffocate all living beings was slowly squeezing in from outside the Cangwu barrier.

That was not a cloud layer; it was a continent.

One hundred and eight dragon head warships, dragging countless Law chains engraved with Great Dao runes, forcibly pulled the Cangwu Great World into the range of the Emperor Immortal Great World.

"Rumble—"

At this moment, the entire Emperor Immortal Great World was trembling.

Countless old monsters who had been in secluded cultivation for tens of millions of years were so startled by this movement that they nearly suffered Qi Deviation. They broke out of their seclusion one after another, their Divine Thoughts surging toward the horizon like a tide.

In the Immortal Qin Family Ancestral Land, a stone coffin that had been sealed for ten thousand years suddenly exploded.

The withered, skeletal Qin Family Old Ancestor crawled out of the coffin boards. Ignoring the burial shroud hanging from his body, he stared with a pair of cloudy yet piercingly bright old eyes, fixedly gazing at the end of the sky.

"The spatial barrier... is melting?"

"Is this the obscured heavenly secret? The Jiang Family's fleet has returned!"

"And they've brought back an entire, complete Cangwu!"

Even a power as strong as the Qin Family, which was also an Immortal Imperial Clan like the Jiang Family, had never achieved such a feat even at its Peak—to relocate a Great World almost without loss!

After a long time, that Old Ancestor seemed to have been drained of his strength. He sat slumped on the ground, his aged voice echoing in the ears of the Qin Family's upper management:

"Send down the order: prepare generous gifts. The specifications... double the highest protocol for an Imperial Clan. The Jiang Family's momentum is already established. The Qin Family... must not compete with them; we can only befriend them."

...Northern Plains Great World, Wang Family.

Atop a towering snow-capped mountain, this was the Wang Family Ancestral Land.

The Head of the Wang Family looked at that vast expanse of Cangwu, which was no smaller than his own Great World, and his expression was not very good.

He thought of his family's Imperial Daughter, Wang Tengxue, who was still in death-seclusion, vowing to break the supreme curse.

"Tengxue... this seclusion of yours is likely in vain."

Even if you really broke the supreme curse, so what?

Could it compare to the glory of the Jiang Family conquering another Great World?

Some rejoiced while others worried.

In contrast were the Ancient Emperors of the Life Forbidden Zones, their expressions gloomy as their Divine Thoughts collided in the Chaos Void, discussing how to take action against the Jiang Family.

Also in contrast were the Immortal Imperial Clans like the Qin Family, the Wang Family, and some other forces that had slight friction with the Jiang Family.

The forces that had followed the Jiang Family on the expedition to the Great World, such as the Xiao Family, the Gu Family, the Saint Demon Sect, and the Yaochi Holy Land, were in a state of celebration and joy throughout their sects!

...Northern Heaven Great World, Xiao Family!

While Xiao Zhishui, one of only two female heads among the ten Great Imperial Clans, was still on the Xiao Family warship, her communication talismans were already being bombarded by acquaintances!

Every single one was, at minimum, a figure at the Grand Elder level of various major forces.

She couldn't easily refuse them, so she could only pretend not to see.

In any case, the facts were right there.

Whether these people chose to believe it or not was up to them!

She now felt that suppressing the Elders within the clan who had originally held opposing views and following the Jiang Family on the expedition was the most correct decision she had made in her life!

As she thought this, her beautiful eyes glanced at Xiao Qingyun standing at the bow of the ship, and she couldn't help but sigh.

"The Jiang Family not only dragged back a Great World and did so without a scratch, but they even... suppressed a female Emperor..."

"Qing'er, the gap between us and the Jiang Family is no longer something a single Great Emperor can make up for. Even if you truly become a Great Emperor in the future, so what..."

She saw things very clearly; she knew the end of the expedition was not the finale, but only the beginning.

If they wanted to continue standing firm in the Jiang Family's camp, they had to make sacrifices.

Or perhaps... increase the Xiao Family's importance in the Jiang Family's heart.

"We should still start with that Jiang Family Imperial Son."

Xiao Zhishui stood at the very front of the deck. That well-tailored purple-gold Phoenix-patterned qipao outlined her curvaceous figure to perfection, and through the slit, her pale, smooth long legs were faintly visible.

This female head who governed an Imperial Clan turned her gaze toward the handsome young man on the largest dragon head warship flagship in the distance, her eyes shimmering like water.

She could see the crowd of beauties surrounding the Jiang Family Imperial Son.

There was the Pseudo-Emperor with Alternative Dao Attainment guarding him closely with an ethereal aura, the Gu Family Imperial Daughter Gu Waner who stuck to Jiang Yuan whenever she had a moment, and others who had followed Jiang Yuan for a long time... She knew all of them.

Finally, Xiao Zhishui's gaze landed on three 'new faces'.

A mature, charming woman with lingering charm, leading two young girls who looked seventy percent like her but were more youthful and tender.

She had never seen these three before.

"Are those... natives of the Cangwu World?"

Xiao Zhishui then recalled the information about Qin Wanwan and Qin Yuebai from a Small World.

Ji Yue of the Great Yan Divine Dynasty, and the Divine Dynasty Imperial Mother Luo Lianyi, whose behavior was reported by informants to be somewhat unusual.

"I see..."

A flash of insight crossed Xiao Zhishui's mind, as if she had grasped some key information.

An extremely bold, even somewhat absurd idea began to grow wildly in Xiao Zhishui's mind.

"The Jiang Family Imperial Son doesn't lack Quasi-Emperors. The only way to hope to attract his attention and not be thrown out of the core circle is to... join Jiang Yuan's team as a group."

"But what method should be used to attract him? To make him feel that we have value?"

Just as Xiao Zhishui was secretly calculating how to differentiate herself to attract Jiang Yuan's attention.

Rumble—!!!

Above the sky, a sudden change occurred!

The power of the Heavenly Dao began to emerge!

It was the Emperor Immortal Heavenly Dao, which couldn't wait to devour the cangwu heavenly dao Origin!

And even faster than the Emperor Immortal Heavenly Dao were several bursts of Great Emperor power erupting from the Jiang Family Ancestral Land one after another!

They resonated with the several Great Emperors on the Jiang Family warships!

Clang, clang, clang—

In the Jiang Family Ancestral Land, the bell tolled nine times, shaking the universe.

The figure of the Jiang Qidao, Jiang Qidao, manifested in the Void Realm.

Looking at the grandly returning fleet and the massive trophy behind them, even he was grinning from ear to ear at this moment, the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes smoothing out.

"Good, good, good! Truly worthy of being of my Jiang Family's blood!"

"Old Six didn't drop the ball this time; not only did he get the job done, but he did it so beautifully."

The Second Ancestor took a step forward and arrived beside the First Ancestor. Although his expression remained cold, his eyes flickered with an irrepressible pride:

"Big brother, it wasn't Old Six's credit. Being able to take Cangwu without a drop of blood this time is all thanks to Yuaner's strategic planning. If he hadn't refined the heavenly heart imprint and suppressed that Heavenly Dao, this cangwu heavenly dao might have chosen to self-destruct in its madness."

"The heavenly heart imprint?"

The First Ancestor was stunned, and then a terrifying divine light erupted from his eyes.

"You're saying that Yuaner..."

"That's right."

The figure of the Fifth Ancestor also appeared, the void heaven dao mirror in his hand still breathing out spatial Law to assist in stabilizing the passage for the Fusion of the two Cangwus. "That kid is now both the Jiang Family Imperial Son and the Master of Cangwu. Even if this Cangwu integrates into Emperor Immortal, it remains his private property."

"The only regret is that he didn't directly break through to Great Emperor as you, Eldest Brother, predicted."

"If he didn't, then he didn't! This was originally a Great World won for Yuaner; as long as he's happy, that's all that matters."

The several ancestors looked at each other and then burst into earth-shaking laughter.

Unfortunately, the Third Ancestor and Fourth Ancestor had been suppressed by Jiang Qidao to guard the Jiang Family home and couldn't participate in this grand event.

"Alright, let's talk more when we get home. Let's first integrate this Cangwu World into our Jiang Family territory."

"Good."

Upon hearing this, the Sixth Ancestor's eyes burst with light. He cleared his throat and his voice rang out loudly, spreading through the heavens.

"The Jiang Family expedition returns in great victory!"

"Today, we swallow Cangwu and settle the Cangwu! The Imperial Son's Divine Might is peerless throughout the ages!"

Boom!

Under the World-Fusion Array prepared in advance by the Jiang Family ancestors, the tacit consent of the Emperor Immortal Heavenly Dao, and the powerless resistance of the cangwu heavenly dao...

The Cangwu Great World completely squeezed into the Emperor Immortal Great World.

With the joint efforts of the Great Emperors, it was precisely placed into an endless void within the Eastern Region of the Jiang Family territory.

The sea boiled, continental plates collided, and mountain ranges rose.

But under the great power of several Great Emperors, all these geological disasters were suppressed to the smallest possible range.

Afterward, the impatient Emperor Immortal Heavenly Dao finally began its strike, and the two Heavenly Daos officially began to fuse.

However, rather than calling it Fusion...

It was more like the Emperor Immortal Heavenly Dao unilaterally devouring the cangwu heavenly dao.

For the Heavenly Dao of a Great World, devouring the Origin of another Cangwu of the same level was the only shortcut to evolution.
