The Great Luo Realm and the Spirit Beast Heaven are the three great holy lands of the original Naruto world.
At Mount Myōboku, the two great hermits, Fukasaku and Shima, were suddenly awakened from their meditation, their bodies trembling, and the enormous pool of toad oil was boiling violently.
"This...this power...transcends the Six Paths! It's...that direction! The Great Luo Heavenly Court!"
The Great Toad Sage's prophetic crystal ball shattered, a crack appearing in it, and its murky eyes were filled with unprecedented terror.
"The path of immortals...where does it lead? The Heavenly Court...the conferment of gods?"
In Dragon Cave, the White Snake Immortal's enormous body coiled uneasily, its cold, vertical pupils filled with greed and extreme fear.
"Immortality...true immortality! A power even stronger than Sage Mode! Uchiha Sō...he did it!"
"That little snake Xuanqing has truly taken off now. It seems I need to recruit more snakes to its ranks to 'exchange' the true Immortal Fruit for the Ancestor..."
It hissed and flicked its tongue, frantically trying to figure out how to "actively" attract the attention of that Heavenly Emperor.
In the Shikkotsu Forest, the enormous split of the Slug Sage simultaneously emitted a soft, mournful cry.
"A gentle world has been swallowed up, and powerful forces are emerging... The balance has been completely shattered. Survival... may require a new choice."
Although its desire for power was not as strong as that of the snake and the toad, its concern for the continuation of its race led it to consider the possibility of contacting the Heavenly Court.
……
The World of Inuyasha·Western Kingdom.
Douya Wang (the remnant soul of Inu no Taisho) and Lingyue Xianji stood on the clouds, their expressions extremely solemn.
Sesshomaru's Tenseiga emitted a violent buzzing and trembling, as if it were in fear, or perhaps in longing.
"Father, that is..."
Sesshomaru's golden eyes were a mixture of fighting spirit and solemnity.
Touga said in a deep voice, "Power that transcends the limits of a Great Demon... and not just one! That so-called Heavenly Court... can actually mass-produce such beings? Naraku's evil ways are like child's play in the face of such power!"
The inherent pride of the great demons began to waver in the face of the absolute power disparity, and their deep-seated desire for power, survival, and even "divine immortality" grew like wildfire.
……
The world of Natsume's Book of Friends (which has been naturalized).
Deep within the world entangled by the roots of the divine tree, the four ancient gods (Gen, Hiiragi, Sasaburi, and Tatsumi), whose consciousness was not completely extinguished and were sealed in the core of the "Well of Ascension," as well as the remnant soul of Nyanko-sensei (Madara), all sensed those eight familiar yet strange, yet powerful aura fluctuations that filled them with despair.
"They...they actually..."
The dragon god Xuan's consciousness was filled with bitterness and disbelief. The frost giant, Shu, held a chilling resolve:
"Using our very essence as fuel... we forged their immortality..."
The forest god Sasafune's thoughts carried a sorrowful realization:
"This is... the fate of the losers... and... the new 'order'?"
The remnant soul of Nyanko-sensei (Madara) let out an unwilling roar, but it was more of a sense of powerlessness in the face of absolute power.
Their very existence became the best propaganda and deterrent for the power of the Heavenly Court.
Those spirits and humans who had once resisted, upon sensing this aura, had their last thought of resistance extinguished, leaving only numb submission.
……
In other locked worlds, some of which have not yet been conquered but have been discovered by the reconnaissance department or even partially infiltrated, the most powerful beings (who may be reclusive ancestors, incarnations of the world's will, or powerful otherworldly gods) all felt something at this moment, and their souls were filled with intense tremors and warning signs.
Those eight rising immortal auras, like lighthouses, heralded the rise of a behemoth, and like swords hanging overhead, made them restless and unable to eat or sleep.
Is it to submit to that so-called Heavenly Court?
Or should we just sit and wait for our doom?
Or... should we find a way out?
Uchiha Sō, who sat high on the imperial throne, naturally and clearly sensed the tremors in all the heavens and the emotional fluctuations of those who were spying on him.
This is exactly the effect he wanted!
He gazed down at the eight lords below, their auras soaring due to the surge of power, yet filled with even greater reverence and submission towards him; he looked at the myriad immortals and gods, excited and fervent upon witnessing the divine miracle, yearning to become the next "immortals," and slowly spoke, his voice like a resounding bell of the heavens, echoing once more throughout the heavens:
"The merits of the Eight Departments should be shared with me in the fruits of the Dao; this is the way of Heaven that rewards diligence!"
"However, the path to the Heavenly Court is not limited to this! The myriad realms are vast and boundless, teeming with powerful beings and countless great paths!"
"I, the Great Luo Heavenly Emperor Uchiha Ei, have the world in my heart and welcome all talented people! All living beings in the myriad realms, regardless of their origin, race, or past!"
"If you have a heart that yearns for the Dao, if you are willing to follow the order of my Heavenly Court, and if you have rendered meritorious service to the Great Luo!"
"Your place on the Investiture of the Gods is certain! The Dao of Immortality is no illusion! The Path to Immortality is not exclusive to your eight classes!"
"Anyone who offers otherworldly treasures, core laws, important intelligence, or makes outstanding contributions to the expansion of the Heavenly Court's territory..."
"I will not hesitate to bestow generous rewards! Laws and Dao Fruits, authority over the Heavenly Court, and even... the opportunity to comprehend the core mysteries of the Investiture of the Gods—all can be granted!"
These words were like pouring ice water into a boiling oil pan!
The entire Lingxiao Cloud Platform was in an uproar!
Those powerful individuals from different worlds who had not yet been granted the title of gods instantly turned bloodshot and began to breathe heavily!
Investiture of the Gods!
Immortal Dao Fruit!
An opportunity to unravel the core mysteries!
This temptation is more deadly than any elixir or magical artifact!
The far-reaching effects, however, are quietly brewing throughout the myriad realms.
The sages of the three sacred lands of Naruto, the great demons of the Inuyasha world, and other powerful beings from other worlds, all began to violently oscillate between absolute fear and irresistible temptation.
Actively contributing?
Or should we passively await our destruction?
Uchiha Sho looked down at the excited crowd and felt the undercurrents stirred up in all the worlds by his words. A detached smile of complete control appeared on his lips.
He raised his hand, pointing beyond the divine tree to the boundless, chaotic void, a void brimming with infinite possibilities and challenges:
"Look! That is your battlefield, that is your opportunity! The glory of the Great Luo Heavenly Court will surely illuminate every inch of chaos!"
"The Immortal Assembly has now concluded!"
"My lords, for me, for the Great Luo, go forth and conquer!"
"May the Heavenly Emperor be eternal! May the Great Luo be everlasting!"
The frenzied shouts, like a mountain collapsing and a tsunami crashing down, carrying the immense power of the eight newly ascended immortal gods, surged out of the Lingxiao Cloud Platform and the Great Luo Realm, proclaiming the arrival of a new era's overlord to all the heavens and myriad realms!
Chapter 275, Turning Point
On the imperial throne, Uchiha Xiang's purple-gold double pupils did not relax despite the grand occasion of the Immortal God Assembly; on the contrary, they became even more profound.
The Investiture of the Gods floated beside him, like a living core of the universe, silently absorbing information from all the heavens and myriad worlds.
The advancement of the Eight Lords, the growth of the Great Luo Heavenly Dao, the assimilation and upheaval of countless worlds... all of this was operating efficiently under his will.
However, a faint, distorted fluctuation of law, seemingly deliberately erasing all traces of its origin, was keenly detected by the Pool of Myriad Laws and transmitted to Uchiha Eiji's perception through the core network of the Investiture of the Gods.
This fluctuation does not originate from any specific world origin, but rather seems to be a kind of... "mechanism"?
A cold set of rules that transcends the chaotic sea, ignores spatial distance, and forcibly anchors, distorts, and even "formats" the trajectory of individual destinies.
"Reincarnation...Paradise? God...Space?"
Uchiha Elephant's consciousness searched for fragments of memories from Earth within the vast ocean of laws. The descriptions of "contractors," "mission worlds," "annihilation," and "bloody evolution" strikingly matched the essence of the distorted fluctuation before him.
His fingertips tapped lightly on the armrest of the throne, producing a deep echo that seemed to resonate like the pulse of the heavens.
"I see……"
For the first time, Uchiha Sho's lips, that indifferent curve that usually held absolute control, took on a cold, playful edge, as if he had met his match.
“This chaotic sea is not only where I hunt. There are also... many 'fishermen'.”
He instantly deduced countless possibilities:
The cost of a head-on confrontation: given the current power of the Great Luo Heavenly Court, if it were to encounter a mature, highly organized "Paradise" or "Space" that also possesses the ability to project across worlds, an extremely fierce war of gods would inevitably erupt.
The Great Luo Realm, whose foundation is not yet stable, has no chance of winning. The best outcome is that it will be crippled, and the worst outcome is that it will be targeted by countless reincarnators and become "food" for the "Main God Space"!
Previously, due to the pressure from the Otsutsuki clan in the Naruto world, and having just entered the Chaos Realm, the rise of the Uchiha Elephant's Great Luo Heavenly Court was filled with conquest, plunder, and suppression.
This may be efficient when there is a disparity in strength, but when facing a true "chosen one" or an individual/world with a "protagonist's halo," it can easily become the fuse that ignites the will to resist and triggers an uncontrollable chain reaction.
Although the Investiture of the Gods solidified the core, the flames of resistance in the peripheral world were never completely extinguished.
Power, immortality, order, the path to ascension... these are the eternal pursuits of countless beings throughout the myriad realms.
Rather than arriving as a terrifying conqueror, it is better to attract them by presenting themselves as an "advanced civilization" or "ultimate destination."
Let those creatures struggling in the dark forest walk into the embrace of the heavens.
"The foundation is in place; there is no need to take any further risks."
Uchiha Sō made up his mind.
"Domineering behavior needs to be tempered by benevolent rule. Conquest can also be disguised as 'opportunity' and 'redemption'."
……
The Great Luo Heaven, the Lingxiao Palace.
The Great Luo Heavenly Emperor, Uchiha Eizo, summoned his gods for a strategic shift meeting.
The only participants in this meeting were the heads of the eight divisions and three sages representing the three great holy lands of the original Naruto world (Great Toad Sage, White Snake Sage, and Slug Sage), who were granted special permission by Uchiha Eizo to attend.
And several powerful beings from other worlds who demonstrated exceptional wisdom or unique value during the conquest and have already earned the qualifications to be deified.
(Such as the manifestation of the remnant soul and will of Toga from the Inuyasha world, or a naturalized AI leader from a high-tech universe).
The emperor's might, like a prison, enveloped the palace. The phantom image of the Investiture of the Gods slowly rotated on the dome, its power causing all newcomers to tremble in their hearts.
"My lords,"
Uchiha Sho's voice was calm yet undeniable.
