Chapter 709: Chapter 708: There are still differences in strength in the Mahayana Realm

The power of collective will of living beings is imasurable, and requires specially designed vessels to harness it.

To this end, Jiang Li specifically gathered heavenly and earthly treasures from all over the Nine Provinces, asking the Dao Sect’s Artifact Refinent Peak to create it.

The bronze cauldron was placed in the center of the Imperial Palace, and the deep blue water ford by the concentration of collective will within the cauldron was akin to the essence of the Earth’s pulse.

This was the purest form of collective will, with a history stretching back three hundred years, and it had never been used before.

Now, Jiang Li planned to let his two good friends use it.

In recent years, the Nine Provinces had established ties with other worlds, and through nurous exchanges, the Earth’s pulse had been further strengthened in this process.

Jiang Li had inspected the Earth’s pulse located directly beneath the Imperial Palace, and it had grown several tis stronger than when he first ascended to his position as Human Emperor.

“I never expected I would have a day when I’d use the collective will,” Bai Hongtu said with an excited rub of his hands as he looked at the full cauldron of collective will.

Yu Yin showed a rare hint of a smile at the sight of the collective will.

Being able to use the collective will ant that they both fulfilled the conditions to beco the Human Emperor; if it wasn’t for Jiang Li, the 72nd Human Emperor would have been chosen from among them.

Even if they couldn’t beco the Human Emperor, they would be content to have been recognized by the collective will.

“What will the next Human Emperor do after we use it?” Bai Hongtu hadn’t forgotten the original purpose of the bronze cauldron.

Jiang Li rolled his eyes: “This is a volu that has taken three hundred years to accumulate; if you can use it all, I will imdiately relinquish my throne and beco the ruler of the Underworld in Queen Hou Tu’s stead, freeing up the position of Human Emperor for you.”

Yu Yin added: “The ancient emperor once told , the collective will can only temporarily elevate one’s physical body to the level of an Earth Immortal, and using more collective will would be useless.”

The importance of collective will lies not in the quantity, but in the quality.”

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin sat cross-legged, floating in the air, their hands flipping in intricate gestures to form the Seal of the Emperor.

Jiang Li released his control of the collective will; the calm water of collective will in the cauldron was stirred, rippling with activity.

“Rise,” Bai Hongtu turned his palms outward, raising both hands as if supporting the heavens.

The collective will morphed into mist, floating toward the two, expanding everything from their flesh and bones to their spirits.

The power of their physical bodies gradually increased until it finally broke through the threshold, surpassing the limits of ordinary mortals and becoming an Earth Immortal’s body, entering the domain of immortality.

Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin succumbed to a splendid state, in which their bodies felt light as a feather, their sensory perceptions no longer confined to the flesh but transford into a certain symbol, spreading out, spreading across the Nine Provinces and other worlds.

They felt as if they had rged with the Earth’s pulse; wherever the Earth’s pulse was, they were there.

Noisy voices started ringing in their ears; upon careful listening, they could distinguish various sounds.

So people were praying for the emperor’s blessing, so were diligently cultivating, so were hoping their mothers and daughters were safe, so were wishing for successful research… these were the hopes of living beings.

Seeing his two friends appearing as though they had lost gravity, their expressions shifting between satisfaction and pain, Jiang Li could roughly guess what stage they were at.

He had felt a similar way when he first ascended to the throne and used the power of collective will; the hopes of the living beings echoing in your ears, and you wishing to fulfill all their wishes, yet feeling pain at your own insufficiency, unable to respond to the hopes of the creatures.

The process of hearing the voices of the living beings lasts only for a short mont and soon returns to normal.

Sure enough, the expressions of Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin eased, they began to truly adapt to the power of collective will.

Both of them opened their eyes simultaneously, their eyes clear as a brook.

Their eyes were like a mirror; what you saw when you looked into their eyes was not Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin, but your own reflection.

“Mahayana Realm, breakthrough.”

As Bai Hongtu casually spoke, Piled Thunder Mountain was enveloped in billowing clouds, and the fierce wind howled.

A naless pressure spread from Piled Thunder Mountain throughout the entire Nine Provinces, from common people to immortals, all felt this fluctuation.

“Is soone about to ascend to immortality?” Sword Monarch was startled.

The elderly Dragon King rose vigorously; three hundred years ago, he had been awakened by this fluctuation while in slumber in the East Sea.

The elderly Dragon King lowered his voice, confirming his answer from the shocked looks on everyone’s faces.

“No, it should be… the Mahayana Realm.”

The immortal elder nodded, “This feels the sa as when Jiang Li broke through to the Mahayana Realm.”

Except for Sword Monarch, everyone present had witnessed this scene three hundred years ago.

This feeling was like sobody ascending to immortality, but it was more indescribable and wondrous than actual ascension.

“Let’s go and see.” None of them could sit still anymore, they all got up and rushed towards Piled Thunder Mountain.

At the foot of Piled Thunder Mountain, they ran into the Scholarly Saint and three rulers.

None of these four knew what had happened, they had rely arrived here based on their senses.

Looking up, the Commanding General saw Bai Hongtu and Yu Yin seated cross-legged at the top of the mountain, their hearts pointing towards the heavens, spiritual energy roiling outwards from within.

“Are Daoist Bai and Daoist Yu about to pass through the calamity of ascension?” asked the Chaos Ruler perplexedly.

The scholarly saint also cast a puzzled look; it seed that the immortal elder and others knew sothing.

Li Er shook his head and explained, “They are to beco Mahayana. There is no need to cross a calamity for becoming Mahayana.”

For a realm that doesn’t exist, why cross a calamity to verify if one is qualified to beco a Mahayana?

The three rulers’ pupils contracted, and they quickly used their spells to imprint this scene.

The Scholarly Saint was also no longer at ease, they were actually about to breakthrough to Mahayana?

Li Er thoughtfully said, “I still rember when Jiang, the Human Emperor, beca Mahayana. The immortal elder said this display was exactly the sa as recorded in ancient books. Jiang, the Human Emperor, has beco a Mahayana like the Immortal Lord Minghuo and the War Immortal.”

Three hundred years ago, everyone hadn’t seen this situation, and asked what was going on. Immortal elder stroked his beard, citing precedents alluding to ancient books, saying Mahayana was also known as the period of Golden Immortal, and this was a prelude to the tri-flower gathering at the top and the five Qi’s rushing to the origin.

He also said that Mahayana was rare, so rare that the heavens were unwilling to bring down calamity, so there was no need for a calamity to beco Mahayana…

The immortal elder said a lot, perfectly explaining the phenonon when Jiang Li beca Mahayana, which convinced and impressed everyone by his erudition.

After Jiang Li beca Mahayana, he learned that the immortal elder had anticipated this long ago and admired the elder even more. He even went to Sealing Self Cave to ask the immortal elder for his experience. The elder encouraged Jiang Li a few words, urging him to strive for early cultivation to Mahayana’s great perfection.

After that, Jiang Li strived hard to surpass the Heavenly Dao.

“Hahaha, I, Bai Hongtu, have finally beco a Mahayana!” Bai Hongtu’s laughter echoed from the mountain’s peak to its foothills, sounding extrely proud.

Now that he was also in the Mahayana Realm like Jiang Li, who could be weaker than whom?

“Jiang Li, fight !”

Jiang Li humored Bai Hongtu’s request and punched him square in the eye.

Bai Hongtu fell onto the ground with a thud.

Jiang Li casually said: “Just now you’ve beco Mahayana, which corresponds to the initial stage of an Earth Immortal.”

The speed of sound was much slower than the speed of light, so the spectators saw Bai Hongtu get punched by Jiang Li, but what they heard was Bai Hongtu’s hearty laughter stating that he had finally beco Mahayana.

Even within the Mahayana Realm, there were differences in strength.

Yu Yin was much more self-aware. She knew this was just the beginning, and she was far from having the qualifications to compete with Jiang Li.

Jiang Li dragged Bai Hongtu by the leg down the mountain in a leisurely manner, Bai Hongtu’s face was shoved to the ground with his head bobbing along the way. Yu Yin followed behind, wearing an expression as if she didn’t know Bai Hongtu.

The scene was harmonious with no one getting hurt.

The Commanding General: “…”

He felt that ever since the selection of the Human Emperor, they had often witnessed such a scene.
