Chapter 1126

The Ghost Emperor understood Gu Chen's meaning and felt much better.

If it was just a one-sided favor, he wouldn't be able to accept it given his personality.

But since Gu Chen turned it into a key to deepen their relationship, he knew what to do.

In the end, he accepted the gift and swore in his heart that he would do his best to repay this favor in the future.

For the next few days, the Ghost Emperor focused on the Prajna Possession Technique while Gu Chen guided him from the side.

When the Ghost Emperor was fully prepared, the magnificent act of possessing the emperor's corpse was carried out in the Underworld.

Half a month later, the Ghost Emperor came out of seclusion. When he came out, the entire Fengdu was filled with strange phenomena and a terrifying emperor's aura instantly crushed the entire Underworld, causing countless spirits to tremble.

Gu Chen and the other two left the Underworld on the same day, but the Ghost Emperor stayed behind.

He had just fused with the emperor's corpse and needed time to fully grasp the power of the emperor's corpse.

Gu Chen looked forward to seeing the Ghost Emperor again. The next time he appeared, he would be an indispensable general, leading millions of ghost soldiers to fight for him.

What was worth mentioning was that not long after Gu Chen left, Mo Yanshen announced to the entire Underworld that he was abdicating and passing the position to the Ghost Emperor.

Mo Yanshen was a smart man and knew that the world had changed. If the Underworld wanted to survive, they had to be united with the Celestial Court.

Compared to him, the Tyrant obviously trusted the Ghost Emperor more. Otherwise, he wouldn't have passed the emperor's corpse to him.

After the incident with the Serene Sparrow, he felt that he was getting old and weak. The Underworld needed a stronger leader.

The Ghost Emperor was a junior that he had high hopes for. After entering the Underworld for a few decades, he became one of the Yama Kings of the Ten Halls. His strength and prestige were both sufficient.

Moreover, he gained nothing from the life and death carvings while the Ghost Emperor's strength increased by leaps and bounds after obtaining the emperor's corpse. There was no doubt about this.

He passed the position to the Ghost Emperor, hoping that he could bring a new era to the Underworld.

On the way back to the Mystic Lady Palace, Gu Chen received news that Mo Yanshen was abdicating. He was surprised and praised Mo Yanshen's great wisdom.

Initially, he had the intention of helping the Ghost Emperor. However, he had not expected Mo Yanshen to be able to read his intentions so accurately.

In this way, the Underworld would be able to be completely trusted and become a powerful ally of the Celestial Court, just like the Heart Ape Clan.

The news of the Underworld's return to the Celestial Court was spread to the Mystic Lady Palace first by Gu Chen and the other two. For a time, everyone in the Celestial Court was encouraged!

"That's great! The return of the Underworld will be a powerful signal. Moreover, the Celestial Court has just won a battle. More and more old forces from the Celestial World will return!"

"Because of their relationship with the First Heavenly General, the Heart Ape Tribe has re-allied with us. With these two great allies, it's only a matter of time before the Immortal World returns to its former glory!"

"Send this news to Ling Long Celestial Palace, Ascension Sect, and other factions. It's time to recruit them in the name of the Immortal Realm."

The Empyrean Fairy was in charge of the Palace of Empyrean Fairies. After the news spread, she immediately discussed it with the Celestial Generals and spread the news to the outside world!

When the Tyrant had just become the First Heavenly General, they felt that the ambition to rebuild the Celestial World was still very far away. However, they did not expect that it would become a reality in just a few months!

What they needed to do now was to announce the rebirth of the Celestial Court as soon as possible. In this golden era, the Celestial Court would finally bare its fangs!

When Gu Chen returned to the Palace of Empyrean Fairy, he could clearly feel that the whole Celestial Court was glowing with unprecedented vigor. All the cultivators had a clear goal and were performing their duties. Together, they pushed the efficiency of the Celestial Court to the extreme.

Li Shunyu and Tang Ning were deeply moved when they saw this. In the past, the Celestial Court had always been in a state of disunity. When had it ever been so united and full of vigor?

Even when Tang Ning was in charge of the Celestial Court, there was never such a scene.

The Celestial Court was transforming every day. It was getting closer and closer to returning to the top position in the Immemorial Immortal Realm. This made Tang Ning, Li Shunyu, and even Wu Huang even more certain that only Gu Chen could change the Celestial Court.

Every day, the Palace of Empyrean Fairy would receive exciting news from the outside world. Sometimes, it would be a letter of surrender from the Immemorial Immortal Clan. Sometimes, it would be a greeting from a practicing ancient planet.

The colossus, the Celestial Court, had completely come out of its seclusion and gained a great reputation in the Twelve Starfields!

"Under the influence of the Underworld, many of the Immortal Realm's old factions have contacted us. Even Ling Long Celestial Palace, Ascension Sect, and other great factions have changed from refusing to ally with us. I believe that soon, the Tyrant's long-cherished wish to rebuild the Immortal Realm will be realized."

"Oh, that's right. The Ascension Sect has sent us a letter. It states that only the Tyrant can read it."

In the Heavenly Music Pavilion's meeting, Gu Chen was listening to the Heavenly Generals' reports as usual. The Empyrean Fairy finished her speech with a smile on her face. Then, she handed him an encrypted letter.

"What letter is it? It's so mysterious."

Gu Chen received the letter in surprise. When he opened it, his eyes lit up.

When he finished reading the letter, he couldn't help but reveal a smile.

"Looks like it's good news. What does the letter say?"

Tang Ning, the Empyrean Fairy, and the others asked curiously when they saw Gu Chen's expression.

"It's a pleasant surprise. I didn't expect to receive a letter from him."

Gu Chen touched his nose. His eyes revealed an indescribable excitement.

It was as if he had run into an evenly matched opponent. That was why he was filled with fighting spirit.

"There's someone in the Ascension Sect that the Tyrant knows?"

The Heavenly Generals became even more confused. Hearing Gu Chen's tone, it seemed like the letter had some sort of origin.

One must know that Gu Chen had only nodded his head indifferently when they received many good news. He had never had such an expression on his face.

The crowd was extremely curious. However, Gu Chen did not say anything. He revealed a mysterious smile.

"You will know about this matter in the future. You don't have to worry about the Ascension Sect. Let's talk about the Divine Realm."

As he spoke, his expression turned serious.

There were many powers that had surrendered to the Celestial Court. However, all of them were related to the Immemorial Immortal World.

Gu Chen's target was not only the Immortal World. If he wanted to fight against the Xing County, he needed both the Immortal Path and the Divine Path to join hands.

Moreover, the faster, the better. After all, no one knew how long the Ninth Realm's time limit was.

Hearing Gu Chen mention the Divine Realm, the Heavenly Generals' joyous expressions became much more restrained.

In the end, it was the Empyrean Fairy who spoke.

"Compared to the Immortal Path's powers, the number of powers in the Divine Realm that are willing to surrender to our Celestial Court can be counted on one's fingers. Even if there are, they are only minor powers.

"After all, the Immortal Path and the Divine Path have been opposing each other for too long. The higher the reputation of the Celestial Court, the more cautious they become. They are worried that this is a plot by the Celestial Court to eliminate them.

"Fortunately, we have captured many Divine Path's powers. I believe that through their influence, we will be able to slowly get rid of this situation …

"But that will be too slow."

Before the Empyrean Maiden could finish, Gu Chen interrupted her with a deep frown.

He did not have the time to let the grudges between the Immortal Path and the Divine Path slowly melt away. Even if he could wait, the Ninth Realm could not.

The Heavenly Generals looked at one another. They knew that the situation was urgent. However, how could establishing an Alliance of Immortals and Gods be so easy?
