Eternal Chaos Empire…
The Eternal Chaos Empire is a massive piece of land that expands for millions of miles with an unknown circ.u.mference. River’s flow calmly as trees grow as tall as they could be while animals, beast, and so on live free.
The empire is divided by four which is the east, west, south, and north.
Each side circulates the main center of the Empire called the Imperial Land. Years had passed, hundreds, in fact, the sect’s formed along with clans after gaining the Emperor’s approval but strict rules to follow.
Cultivators, well, they cultivate while mortals also do but cultivate other things.
The Emperor which is Silver had declared before that once one sect or clan of cultivators produce a great candidate and able to become an Immortal Emperor, they are free to build their own lineage or kingdom but would be under the Empire to which everyone had agreed readily and happily for they would have never or would never got the chance to do so and also thanks to the emperor for allowing and giving them the chance to do so.
If they cannot do so, they are free to send their member to join the ranks for Empire to boost their own clan or sect fame, which many happily choose to joined the ranks of guards, soldiers, and others.
Silver created this rule because he had learned that one generation is 100,000 years (Heaven’s Will Generation and for the Heavenly Laws and Grand Dao’s to recover and form another heaven’s Will. Not the people because the generation for people is another matter.). Meaning, one could become an Immortal Emperor if they successfully reach their way to the top and shoulder the Heaven’s Will. (Look up the next Immortal Emperor to ascend after Li Qiye became one. If you’ve read the novel, you’ll notice it.)
Now, this made Silver curious since he only knew that there’re only less than a hundred Immortal Emperor’s being declared in the novel.
When he asked the system about it, the system told him that sometimes one isn’t suitable to shoulder the Heaven’s Will. Sometimes the selected few would end up killing each other hence none became an Immortal Emperor, but the most problematic reason is Heaven’s Will Overseer for he sometimes hibernates.
When he asked why the system answered him.
[ Even the host needs to sleep which is a True Immortal and a God, so why can’t others? ]
As simple as that!
He then calculated, ‘So… There should have been thousands of Immortal Emperor’s, right?’ he asked.
[ Answering to host… Yes host but due to certain reasons, there have only been less than a hundred declared. The system suggests that host exploit the fact for his plans ]
‘Right,’

Present…
After coming back from the World’s End Point, Silver declared that there’ll be a feast for the whole empire to celebrate the birth of the empire’s little Princess, Li Mingyu.
When Silver came back along with the pig that he gave back to the farmer he had borrowed earlier, Li Qiye, Immortal Emperor Gu Chun along with the others flooded him with questions to which he just smiled in response and saying, “Nothing much, just taught some ‘things’ to know where they stand.”
Although Li Qiye wanted to know the depths of what had just transpired, seeing Silver not wanting to say what is what decided to just forget it for now and just watched everyone do their own things. Swearing to himself that he would search for anything, everything and get to the bottom, as far as he could.
Silver had told him before that Immortal Emperor’s are not really Immortal, it is just a title; they are Pseudo-Immortal and in fact, could die from old age. (AN: My thought is billions of years. 3 or less. Looked up the mental age of Li Qiye for reference)
With Silver the Emperor declaring the feast, the whole Empire, the citizens rejoice while some are not since a feast always happens even with a too little thing to be called good news. But learning that the empires first little princess the daughter of the two most formidable Godkings, everyone started traveling the nearest they could towards the Imperial palace hoping to see the little princess.

A month later…
The Imperial Land is filled with people, many even stayed in the sky as there is not much enough room for everyone.
Cultivators use many precious artifacts. Sh.i.p.s hovered as they welcomed those who don’t have anyone to stand at. Most cultivators that couldn’t fly yet stayed below while those who could hitch a ride were above, the mortals aren’t discriminated or pushed aside, it’s more like the cultivators are even giving way for them.
Everyone came bearing their own gifts that they could afford to buy or give.
Imperial Palace…
Thousands of people, be them a cultivator or mortal are all busy cooking and preparing for the feast, it will be one of the biggest they would have ever since the creation of the empire.
The Jian and He clan’s Patriarch along with other clan heads and sect heads are within the palace, congratulating Shen Mei and Li Qi for having a daughter and declared as the Empire’s Little Princess with gifts in hands while some other late comers are being declared as soon as they arrived by the guards.
“The Patriarch of Wu Clan – Wu Hang has arrived!” declared the guard.
“The Patriarch of Shang Clan – Shang Wudi has arrived!” declared another.
“The Sect Master of Azure Dragon – Long Gen has arrives!” once again declared another.
Formidable people from a clan or sect kept coming one after another bearing gifts and congratulating the Godking Couples while Silver just sat at his throne also welcoming everyone along with his disciple Lin Xie sitting beside him, acting like an obedient and graceful little girl, but thinking: ‘When will the feast begin, I am hungry!’
Time passed as more people from all over the Mortal Emperor World came who knew the existence of the Eternal Chaos Empire. Immortal Emperor Gu Chun along with people from the Heaven Spirit World have also come, with gifts and with friendly manner, making the Mortal Emperor World’s know the importance, power and connection and others of the Eternal Chaos Empire.
Never would one thought that the known first Immortal Emperor to come in person just for a feast for a little girl, even with gifts.
On the outside of the empire, no one knows what power holds the Empire thus making many clans and sects try to infiltrate and spy on it because of how rich the energy and the abundance of treasures within the Empire, making them want to take over it, but none ever succeed in doing so because the spies or anyone they sent had never come back or never heard of ever again after leaving their respected clans and sects. And this is why they became wary of the empire and never sent spy again.
Silver knew of these things but never paid any heed on it because there’s a group he had created and trained to protect the empire within the shadows, hence, even if other powers sent spies, they will surely die before even able to do anything as they also have the power and approval of their emperor to destroy anyone if they mean harm towards the empire.
As more people came and as time passed, the last one to arrive was a middle-age looking man, wearing a bright green robes with a respectful attitude. “Heavenly Dao Academy’s Second Ancestor – Wang Yuan has arrived” declared the guard.
The people cheered, the thing called fireworks scattered at the skies at the make a resounding noise throughout the empire.
Time passed as people ate, drink, as they celebrated.
One curious sect master asked after some time, “Goddess Mei and Celestial Godking Li Qi, may learn of the little princess innate talents and physique?” clearly not convinced since they never told the innate talents of Li Mingyu.
“Presumptuous! How dare you ask about the little princess talents! You’re looking to die!” Old Chen who was happily talking with Wang Yuan heard of what the unknown sect master question and couldn’t help but get angry.
Old Chen, even though he acts like a normal old man on the outside, he is in fact a Virtous Paragon and nearing a breakthrough, if he doesn’t have enough power, how could he be the Empire’s treasure overseer ah? If he wanted to kill the unknown sect master, Silver wouldn’t even bat an eye since he knew Old Chen’s character.
“It is all right Old Chen,” said Li Qi. “Your Majesty, since everyone wants to know about Mingyu’s Innate potential, would it be all right to let them know?” he inquired, looking at Silver who’s racing at eating against his disciple Lin Xie on the corner not minding anyone but the food in front of them along with Immortal Emperor Gu Chun and his group.
“Hmm? Yu’er?” asked Silver as he raised his head and looked at everyone.
“Yes. We haven’t used the Mirror of Truth on her yet,” replied Shen Mei, who also wants to know about her child’s potential.
“Oh… Right! She has Mortal Physique” Silver replied.
“Mortal Physique?”
Upon hearing that the little princess’ physique is just at a Mortal Level, many looked on the little girl with pitiful eyes, thinking ‘Even if she’s the Princess of a powerful empire, she can’t become someone great. What a pity, it seems like she’s just going to be someone who would waste their resources..’
Li Qiye who was just watching everything even frowned at Silver’s word but didn’t mind. As long as his sister can live in peace, all will be okay.
“Yes. She has Mortal Physique. But she has Immortal Life Wheel and Immortal Fate.” said Silver and continued eating.
Spoons fell, glasses followed, then everyone’s eye’s nearly popped out of their sockets as their jaw fell.
“WHAT!!!” They all shouted. Even Li Qiye slipped and fell in his crow form upon hearing what Silver just said.
“What?! I thought you guys wanted to learn about it, so why are you all shouting ah?!” Silver spat, pissed off as everyone shouted.
“Impossible! How can someone have Immortal Life Wheel and Fate while having only a Mortal Physique?! This is impossible!” shouted one clan master.
“Nothing is impossible. Geez. Can’t you just shut up? I’ve already told you so there. She’s not my Empire’s Little Princess for no reason you know.” Silver replied and continued eating once again.

The empire is as peaceful as it always is, everyone doing their own things.
Lin Xie, the first disciple of Silver is currently having a problem, seemingly not able to open another Fate Palace. Stopping her cultivation, she went out of her cultivation room and looked for her teacher which is currently busy attending to his farms.
“Ahh… What a great harvest this season would be. Looking at these potatoes and cabbages soothes my heart ah.” he said and laid down on the grassy field while appreciating his own hard work.
As Silver lays down on the grassy green field and letting the cool wind freshening him up, she saw a figure flying above him. Knowing who the figure is, he smiled and asked, “Anything troubling you my dear disciple?”
Lin Xie floated down as her golden robes flutters along with the wind and her descent. Standing near her teacher, she said, “Teacher, I want to go out and travel. I have seemed to reach a bottleneck on my cultivation.”
“You want to travel? Bottleneck?” asked Silver.
“Yes, teacher” replied Lin Xie, who couldn’t wait to get the approval.
Silver waved his hands and as he did so, a black pill appeared and floated towards Lin Xie. Silver then said, “Here, I’ve concocted a pill for breaking those bottlenecks.”
Knowing what her teacher meant, Lin Xie said, “Teacher. I think I won’t resort to pills, I must travel and find my path and Dao.”
Silver knowing his disciple’s character sighed. “All right. But don’t create too much disaster, all right?” he reluctantly replied.
“Thank you, teacher!” Lin Xie happily said and quickly flew away, going to her own adventure on the outside world after being stuck in the empire for some time.
‘Hmm… Did she bring money?’ Silver thought as he could sense that Lin Xie is already flying away at an incredible speed.
‘Oh, well… Nothing bad will happen right?’ he thought.
