223: Chapter 223: Beginning the Attempt to Reach the Immortal Emperor Realm

As Gu Jixiao's words fell, the System instantly lagged.

This made Gu Jixiao frown, even wondering if the System had crashed.

If the System were to crash, he would truly be out of options.

Fortunately, after a moment, countless massive wheels appeared before Gu Jixiao.

These wheels were all chaos lottery draw wheels.

In the next moment, those chaos lottery draw wheels began to spin simultaneously; Gu Jixiao took a deep breath and closed his eyes, no longer looking at the wheels.

After a good while, the System notification for the completed draw sounded. Only then did Gu Jixiao slowly open his eyes and begin to take stock of his rewards, hoping that this draw would not disappoint him.

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Ethereal Law.】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Immortal Emperor-level Formation Master Legacy.】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Immortal Emperor-level Culinary Arts Legacy.】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Immortal Emperor-level Alchemist Legacy.】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining an Immortal Emperor-level Blacksmith Legacy.】

【Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining one Late Stage Immortal Venerable subordinate.】

...

The dense rewards were so dazzling that Gu Jixiao could not take them all in for a moment.

However, he soon finished taking stock of the rewards he had drawn.

It was that very count that caused Gu Jixiao's breathing to quicken.

For he had already collected all the Ethereal Laws, which meant he could begin his Breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

In addition, there were extra rewards, including but not limited to one hundred drops of pangu primeval blood, five hundred immortal emperor artifacts, eight hundred Immortal Venerable subordinates, ten thousand Immortal Emperor subordinates, one million Immortal King subordinates, and countless immortal emperor pills.

However, Gu Jixiao did not pay much attention to these.

From beginning to end, all he cared about was the Ethereal Law.

Seeing that the Ethereal Laws were all collected, Gu Jixiao did not hesitate. With a flicker of his body, he immediately left the Sanctuary, and even the Holy World.

The commotion caused by breaking through to the Immortal Emperor Realm would be absolutely terrifying. Gu Jixiao had every reason to believe that if he broke through in the Holy World, it would likely cause countless deaths.

As the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor Dynasty, this was something he did not wish to see. Therefore, he left the Holy World to find a deserted place, making ample preparations before beginning his Breakthrough to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

However, he was not overly worried. With over five hundred immortal emperor artifacts, he did not believe that he could not successfully step into the Immortal Emperor Realm with the support of so many artifacts.

Soon, Gu Jixiao successfully arrived at a Desolate Lands region of Chaos.

Noticing that there were no living beings around, Gu Jixiao raised his hand and laid down countless formations to withstand the terrifying Lightning Tribulation that would follow his entry into the Immortal Emperor Realm.

After making his preparations, Gu Jixiao took a deep breath, his gaze becoming incredibly firm, and he then began to refine all of the Ethereal Laws.

As he began to refine the Ethereal Laws, his aura began to surge at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Meanwhile, within the Sanctuary, Shen Qingyu and the other two women opened their eyes almost simultaneously after Gu Jixiao left, their gazes filled with worry.

Although Gu Jixiao had not told them explicitly, they had long been of one heart and mind with him.

Since Gu Jixiao had left without a word, it was likely that he had something very important to resolve, which was why he had left without informing them.

Yet there was nothing they could do but pray for Gu Jixiao from the bottom of their hearts, hoping that everything would go safely and smoothly for him.

As for them, they could only remain in the Sanctuary and do their best to raise the children in their wombs for him.

As time ticked away, within the Abyss Cave, the dao coffin sealing the Lord of the Abyss Cave was beginning to shatter at a visible rate.

Elsewhere in Chaos, as Gu Jixiao refined the Ethereal Laws, his cultivation Realm was drawing closer to that of a true Immortal Emperor.

Next, it remained to be seen whether the Lord of the Abyss Cave would be the first to break free from the Seal, or if Gu Jixiao would be the first to break through to the Immortal Emperor Realm.

In any case, whoever took that first step would be the one to determine the ultimate victor.
