As a Father, I Just Want to Watch You Achieve Immortality Chapter 1821: The Only Martial Immortal in 5,000 Years Past and Future—Qi Tian Enters the Restaurant to Meet the Divine Monarch Owner

"This is just a replica, a counterfeit flag crafted in imitation of the ’Xuan’ flag from the Gathering Immortals Eight Flags."
"Within the Gathering Immortals Eight Flags, the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Four Flags are probably dispersed across the mortal realm, whereas the Universe Primordial Four Flags remain absent from here, residing instead in the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Mysterious Queues, clutched by ancient gods."
With his sharp gaze, Old Monkey explained this to Li Che.
Li Che gave a nod, his spirits lifted considerably; he was aware that Dajing’s Emperor possessed a Gathering Immortals Flag, and possibly more than one.
However, beholding this imitation flag stirred memories of the genuine banner gripped by the Emperor...
Li Che splayed his five fingers wide, and right then, a diminutive flag no larger than a palm levitated upward.
"Oh? Gathering Immortal Yellow Flag? Fake flag? Eh... it’s completely authentic!" Old Monkey’s eyes sparkled instantly, fixing a shocked stare on Li Che.
Was it truly possible to acquire such a treasure?
Wouldn’t the divinities of the Dark Heavenly Court fly into a rage?
"Hehehe... Armed with this Gathering Immortal Yellow Flag, young fellow, Old Monkey can provide even steadier aid in absorbing Heaven and Earth Essence Qi as you strive for Martial Immortal."
"Gathering Immortals Flags have the power to call forth deities for a fleeting manifestation in the world."
Old Monkey chuckled heartily.
Man and monkey chatted extensively upon the city tower.
At last, Old Monkey shifted his attention to Fang Hanshu, and upon noticing him, issued a faint sigh, his thoughts drifting to the departed Fang Xinyuan.
"Have you received Little Fang’s inheritance?"
Old Monkey regarded the approaching Fang Hanshu.
Abruptly, Old Monkey’s brow furrowed, sorrow flickering in his gaze: "You’ve perished too?"
"Dead, but somehow still breathing, in a condition better than ever before."
Fang Hanshu offered a cupped-fist salute in refined scholarly fashion.
Old Monkey nodded with a hearty laugh: "Show me Little Fang’s Jade Talisman."
Fang Hanshu promptly retrieved the Jade Talisman without delay.
Seizing the Jade Talisman, Old Monkey then pressed it against Fang Hanshu’s Inner Scene of the Energy Center.
Buzz buzz buzz buzz—
Fang Hanshu plunged into a deeply enigmatic trance, staggering back a few paces before settling cross-legged atop the tower.
"I, Old Sun, will give him a boost, or else it might take him years to gradually absorb and grasp it all."
Old Monkey flashed a wide grin, displaying a playful, childlike mischief.

...
The Earthly Ghost Emperor had surfaced in Qi Tian City, poised to assault the supreme Martial Immortal Realm of this realm!
This astonishing revelation swept through the lands like a raging storm.
In truth, global powers monitoring Qi Tian City had gotten wind of it ahead of time.
They were privy to the grand occurrences in Qi Tian City—the Second Calamity Divine Tribulation Venerable had perished, the Qitian Temple God revived, vanquishing five intruders from the Deceitful Gods Camp!
And now, the revived Qitian Temple God would safeguard the Earthly Ghost Emperor, guarding his breakthrough into the Martial Immortal domain!
The Demon Race’s Ten Thousand Rivers, Wushen Mountain, Da Li Royal Court, Imperial Court—together with Dajing’s every Divine Sect—had all learned of it.
Divine Capital.
Inside the Imperial Palace.
Divinity and Dao Yun wove across the Emperor’s countenance, radiating an icy chill.
"The Earthly Ghost Emperor... dares to attempt Martial Immortal?"
"This age utterly lacks the foundation for a Martial Immortal to arise. Divinity permeates everywhere, divine tides crash fiercely, and the Pure Martial Path of Martial Immortal tolerates no hint of divine taint, remaining utterly isolated—how could such a being possibly appear?"
The Emperor sneered coldly, eyeing the confidential missive from Purple-clothed Eunuch Lian.
"Brazenly defying the heavens, scheming to tread the Pure Martial Path amid a non-Martial Immortal era, lunging at the Martial Immortal Pass..."
"Destined for doom eventually. Heaven-defiers shall face retribution from heaven and earth alike!"
The Emperor’s ferocity knew no bounds.
Still, if the Earthly Ghost Emperor actually ascended to Martial Immortal, it would pose an immense danger!
After all, a vast gulf separated the Underworld from the Imperial Court.
The Emperor rose, divinity and Dao Yun swirling around him, departing the palace alongside Purple-clothed Eunuch Lian toward the shimmering glows over the rear Imperial Mausoleum.
...
Divine Capital Second City.
Octagonal Double-eave Water Tower.
Ninth Layer.
Majestic Dao Yun white light veiled the Great Supervising Minister’s features as he rode a Mystic Turtle’s back, clutching an Eight Diagrams Treasure Mirror.
Yue Taofu and Fang Shangzhen stood silently in his presence.
"The Earthly Ghost Emperor’s charge at the Martial Immortal Pass..."
"This could mark the first—and maybe sole—Martial Immortal across five millennia past and future..."
The Great Supervising Minister murmured gently.
"The Underworld now binds itself fully to the reborn Qitian, practically proclaiming to every god faction in the mysterious queues that the Underworld enjoys Prison Lotus’s patronage henceforth..."
"Hence, the Earthly Ghost Emperor’s bid for Martial Immortal Pass won’t proceed smoothly."
"Moreover, attempting the Martial Immortal Pass can’t stay hidden, bound to attract eyes from every corner, with certain forces ready to employ foul tricks to sabotage the Ghost Emperor’s ascent to Martial Immortal Pass."
The Great Supervising Minister uttered softly.
"Great Supervising Minister... shall we offer our aid?"
Fang Shangzhen inquired with hope.
"Very well, let’s go witness it."
Shrouded in white mist, the Great Supervising Minister’s face stayed obscured.
...
...
This night brought chaos to every quarter.
News propagated at a velocity beyond anyone’s expectations.
Perhaps Qi Tian City’s immense scale rendered concealment of its happenings impossible.
Countless Jianghu Guests and Jianghu Martial Artists buzzed with excitement over it.
Martial Immortal!
The Earthly Ghost Emperor’s pursuit of the Martial Immortal realm—what an epic spectacle!
For martial artists everywhere, it was a monumental event.
Dajing Ghost Road and True Martial Divine Sect’s Zhenwu Mountain trembled violently, as though Qi-Blood pillars pierced the heavens.
Da Li Royal Court, Imperial Court, Western Regions Buddha Land, and other mighty forces—Great Grandmasters, Martial Saints, martial artists—all set forth, hurrying to Qi Tian City in Jiangnan Dao.
