A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality, I Become a God - Chapter 388

Chapter 388: Accepting Divine Emperor Wanjing

“My True Self was born in a Small World, where Spiritual Energy was scarce and resources were limited. Yet even so, I managed to break through by relying solely on my own talent, ascending as a Mortal World Immortal to the Great World.”

“Originally, I believed that by relying on my breakthrough to become a Mortal World Immortal and ascend to the Great World, I would be considered outstanding even there. However, upon reaching the Great World, I realized that existences like mine were countless.”

“Despite that, I never became complacent. Day after day, I dedicated myself to cultivation, and through astonishing perseverance, I eventually surpassed many, breaking through to become a God and ascending to the Divine Realm.”

“After ascending to the Divine Realm, I became aware of my insignificance. That is why I chose to remain within the Jingran Domain, growing step by step until I became the Domain Lord of Jingran.”

“Do you know what was the most important thing for me on this journey?”

When he reached the last part, Divine Emperor Wanjing looked at Heavenly Blade Divine King and asked with utmost seriousness.

Heavenly Blade Divine King pondered for a moment and then looked back at Divine Emperor Wanjing, expressing what he thought was the answer.

“Is it talent?”

“No, it isn’t. For me, talent is secondary. The most important thing was my choices. On the path to becoming as strong as I am now, I faced countless decisions—far more than thousands upon thousands. Although some of these choices nearly led to my demise, the one constant was that I never regretted them. Without those choices, there would be no Divine Emperor Wanjing standing here today.”

“So now, My True Self is going to make the choice I believe is right.”

…

Before long, inside the Xuelang World,

Looking at the Divine Emperor Wanjing’s serious expression, Wu Hao knew that he had made the right choice and said,

“Since you’re willing to become my subordinate, then let us seal it with the Great Dao Oath.”

“Very well, Master, but I don’t yet know your name,”

Divine Emperor Wanjing agreed, and just as he was about to speak, he realized he still didn’t know Wu Hao’s name.

Hearing this, Wu Hao paused briefly before replying,

“My True Self, Wu Hao.”

“I, Jiang Wanjing, hereby swear the Great Dao Oath today, willingly becoming the subordinate of Senior Wu Hao. Should I ever betray Senior Wu Hao, may the Great Dao strike me down with extinction thunder.”

Divine Emperor Wanjing said this with utmost seriousness, and Jiang Wanjing is indeed the name of Divine Emperor Wanjing.As Divine Emperor Wanjing’s words fell, a rumbling sound erupted in the void the next moment, though it didn’t last long. Two beams of light emerged from the void, directly entering Jiang Wanjing and Wu Hao’s bodies, respectively.

Both Jiang Wanjing and Wu Hao sensed it—it was the power of the Great Dao. This also meant the Great Dao Oath had been officially accepted by the Great Dao. If Divine Emperor Wanjing truly betrayed Wu Hao, the Great Dao would indeed strike him down with the extinction thunder of divinity.

“Is this the power of the Great Dao? Truly terrifying,” Jiang Wanjing said as he felt the power within him, his expression grave. He could sense that if the power inside wanted to, it could easily kill him a thousand times over.

This made Jiang Wanjing even more wary of the Great Dao. Although God Emperors all comprehend and absorb the Great Dao’s power, to truly control and rival the Great Dao requires at least reaching the God Emperor level, for anyone below that is nothing more than an ant in the eyes of the Great Dao.

“So this is the power of the Great Dao? It feels like a single flick could wipe everything out,” Wu Hao said calmly as he felt the remaining power of the Great Dao in his body, somewhat dismissive in his heart.

Not to mention now as a God Emperor, he felt that even when he advanced to God Venerable level, he could still erase this power away.However, Wu Hao could feel that this power had little impact on himself. Besides, if he were to erase this power, the Great Dao Oath would be rendered invalid, so it was best to keep it for now.

“But when will I be able to personally bestow the Great Dao Oath?” Wu Hao thought to himself. Wasn’t it said that all gods would eventually inherit the power of the Great Dao? So when exactly could one officially inherit all of the Great Dao’s power? Wu Hao was quite curious about this.

But now was not the time to be curious about that. Glancing at Jiang Wanjing beside him, who was looking at him with a hopeful expression, Wu Hao didn’t hesitate and tossed him a Divine Origin.

“Absorb this. With your current cultivation, it would be embarrassing for me, Wu Hao, if I just threw this away.”

Seeing what Wu Hao threw over, Jiang Wanjing quickly caught it. Once he sensed what was in his hands, he was instantly struck by an overwhelming shock—it was an incredibly terrifying Origin Power, probably at least the Origin Power of a God Venerable.

After becoming a god, to continue advancing one’s cultivation, one either had to use divine source or elixirs, or absorb Origin Power to train.

Although Jiang Wanjing had absorbed some Origin Power before, he had never seen anything as terrifyingly pure and powerful as this. After all, ordinary powerful beings wouldn’t leave their precious Origin Power for others.

The Origin Power left behind was either obtained through inheritance or the enemy’s strength far exceeded one’s own, leaving no time to react before being killed—this was how the most complete Origin Power could be acquired.

From Wu Hao’s attitude, Jiang Wanjing could tell it was likely the latter. After all, if this power had come from an inheritance, how could Wu Hao have been so generous to give such a large portion away?

Even so, Wu Hao’s terrifying strength that allowed him to kill a God Venerable could not be underestimated. Becoming his subordinate and receiving such an intact piece of Divine Origin only made Jiang Wanjing feel even more fortunate about his decision. Had he not chosen to serve under Wu Hao, he would probably regret it for his entire life—he could imagine slapping himself every time he quit cultivation.

“Thank you, Master.”

Jiang Wanjing quickly expressed his gratitude, his tone extremely respectful.

Wu Hao waved his hand lightly and said calmly, “Alright, get stronger as soon as possible. I summoned you to take care of unnecessary trouble for me, so I don’t have to act every single time, not so I end up protecting you.”

“Yes, Master. I’ll begin cultivating immediately. By the way, Master, Emperor Jingrang and Makoto Ito haven’t been away from the Jingran Domain long; they’ll probably return soon. Although your strength needn’t fear Emperor Jingrang, please still be cautious.”

Jiang Wanjing suddenly remembered something and issued the warning before turning back toward the Domain Lord’s Realm. He prepared to absorb this Divine Origin to see how far he could breakthrough.

But this was destined to not be something accomplished quickly.

Therefore, Wu Hao did not intend for Jiang Wanjing to fully absorb the Divine Origin in a short time. Instead, he planned to wait until Jiang Wanjing reached the Intermediate Stage of the God Emperor before leaving together with him.
