"Does that mean advancing from Daluo Golden Immortal to Immortal King is far simpler now than in the past?"
Taiyi Immortal King rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
A twinge of envy stirred within him.
In the time when he rose to power, ascending to Immortal King status proved incredibly challenging.
Locating even a single Seventh-Rank or Eighth-Grade Immortal Medicine bordered on impossible.
Those vital resources had vanished entirely from the Land of Daylight long ago.
To obtain materials fit for an Immortal King, explorers had no choice but to brave the Eternal Night Land.
Yet the dangers lurking in the Eternal Night Land were immense.
Endless horrifying dark creatures lurked in its shadowy depths.
One slip-up there meant total ruin without escape.
Not even Immortal Kings could assure their safety amid the Eternal Night Land's perils.
Therefore, only the most outstanding talents among myriad geniuses could claim the rank of Immortal King.
Fortune and rare chances played essential roles as well.
Without them, achievement remained utterly out of reach.
That's precisely why Immortal Kings commanded such revered status across the entire Immortal World.
Naturally, in the current Immortal World brimming with abundant resources, reaching Immortal King still demands great effort.
Even with plentiful cultivation aids available, promotion isn't assured.
Everything hinges on possessing sufficient talent for cultivation.
Lacking that innate gift, swallowing heaps of Immortal Elixirs won't aid in grasping Advanced Laws.
Progress then stalls, rendering further advancement nearly unattainable.
"Yet the Heaven Court's true strength goes beyond merely these Immortal Kings of diverse clans."
"Actually, Xuan Huang Immortal King's core power runs far deeper and more mysterious."
"Within the Immortal World, he forged Hell dimensions and established the Hell Reincarnation Place."
"Through this, he seized absolute dominion over the whole Immortal World, emerging as the unchallenged Ruler of the Immortal Realm."
The Great Thousand Worlds Mirror spoke with grave seriousness.
These revelations it uncovered lay beyond the grasp of ordinary Immortal Kings.
Without its unique power to observe the realms and detect Hell dimensions' presence,
it too would have stayed oblivious right up to now.
Totally ignorant of Xuan Huang Immortal King's genuine strategies.
"Hell dimensions? What kind of realms are they?"
"Did Xuan Huang Immortal King craft them as Secret Realm worlds?"
Taiyi Immortal King inquired with keen interest.
Still, surprise evaded him, since fashioning Secret Realm worlds came easily to Immortal Kings.
A mere gesture from them sufficed to erect entire Secret Realms.
But such feats held little value for Immortal Kings anyway.
The Immortal World already spanned immense distances, with vast lands yet to be fully claimed.
So what use would extra Secret Realm worlds really bring?
"Yes, they qualify as Secret Realm worlds, though of an utterly unique nature."
"Xuan Huang Immortal King fashioned a realm for the departed, calling it Hell."
"Prior to Hell dimensions' rise, myriad Souls roamed the mortal plane post-mortem."
"These potent Souls readily absorbed boundless negative forces from the ground, birthing evil spirits."
"Clusters of evil spirits lurked in remote peaks and untamed woods, seething with bitter grudge."
"Despite relentless purges by Immortals, new evil spirits kept spawning endlessly."
"Like persistent weeds, they sprang back no matter how often uprooted."
"Without question, this posed a massive latent threat across the Immortal World."
"Innumerable mortals fell victim to these evil spirits' wrath."
The Great Thousand Worlds Mirror declared with heavy solemnity.
"Such a threat rings true indeed."
Taiyi Immortal King agreed with a nod.
Back then, he too had sought ways to curb the surging evil spirits, only to deem it hopeless.
The root cause of evil spirits stemmed from the beings of all clans.
Upon dying, they morphed into these malevolent forms.
Hence, barring total annihilation of the Immortal World, evil spirits would persist forever.
Eliminating all souls to quash evil spirits proved not just impractical but outright harmful.
As a result, he eventually abandoned efforts to fix the issue over the ages.
All he could do was permit evil spirits to persist in the living realm, striving for uneasy harmony.
In this way, a balanced natural order took shape.
Ultimately, the Immortal World brimmed with unsolved woes, and evil spirits' risks ranked as just one among many, so he spared it little focus.
"To tackle this crisis, Xuan Huang Immortal King devised the Hell Dimension."
"Known as Hell Dimension, it serves as abode for the dead and a jail for the deceased alike."
"Thanks to it, hordes of evil spirits got herded into the Hell Dimension."
"From that point on, souls vanished entirely from the Immortal World."
Stated the Great Thousand Worlds Mirror.
"That explains why souls evaded my sight—they've all been consigned to the Hell Dimension."
"Clearly, Xuan Huang Immortal King earns his Celestial Emperor mantle."
"He's quelled peril after peril in the Immortal World, far surpassing my own feats."
Taiyi Immortal King marveled in awe.
"Master, were that the extent of it, all would be well."
"Yet once vast numbers of souls flooded the Hell Dimension, it transformed dramatically."
"Remember, any world—or even the cosmos—embodies duality at its core."
"Life's vitality balances perfectly against death's essence."
"With the Hell Dimension's birth, torrents of deathly aura and shadowy forces surged into its core."
"In due course, the Hell Dimension emerged as the Immortal World's dark counterpart."
"Indisputably, Hell now forms a crucial element of the Immortal World."
"Beings born there rival in strength those thriving in the Immortal World itself."
Conveyed the Great Thousand Worlds Mirror.
"What exactly are you implying? Isn't the Hell Dimension just a confined space for holding souls?"
Taiyi Immortal King felt somewhat taken aback.
He appeared to have undervalued the Hell Dimension's true scope.
Observing the Great Thousand Worlds Mirror's evident strain, he sensed the Hell Dimension's exceptional nature.
Else, this knowledgeable innate treasure wouldn't display such gravity and tension.
"Initially, it might have started as a basic enclosure for captive souls."
"However, as souls from the Immortal World poured in by the legions, it evolved into something profound."
"Across eons of growth spanning billions of years, endless souls streamed into the Hell Dimension, reshaping it into enormous realms of death."
"Those deathly realms integrated seamlessly into the Immortal World's foundational essence."
"Inhabitants of the Hell Dimension enjoy eternal life."
"Slain or not, they revive perpetually inside the Hell Dimension."
"Roughly ten billion years back, the Dark Clan roused legions of dark creatures into a colossal dark horde, bent on swallowing the whole Land of Day, their ranks appearing boundless."
"Yet Xuan Huang Immortal King called forth myriad undying souls from the Hell Dimensions; these tireless souls materialized in the living realm, each brimming with might, devoid of fear toward death, and astoundingly held the dark forces at bay."
"Unquestionably, this represents the undead legion under Xuan Huang Immortal King's command."
Clarified the Great Thousand Worlds Mirror.
"An army of undead souls?"
"Thus, in a sense, the Hell Dimension doubles as a forge for Xuan Huang Immortal King's warriors."
"Crafting the Hell Dimension proved far more intricate than it first appeared."
"Furthermore, his aim was harnessing its might to assemble an undying soul battalion."
"And succeed he did, amassing a tremendously potent army."
Taiyi Immortal King's eyes narrowed sharply.
Being among the Human clan's nine primordial kings and steeped in lore, he grasped full well the dread might of an undead legion. When loosed, it could ravage all lands, unleashing a true undead scourge.
Even more crucially, masses of undead unleashing ceaseless deathly power could corrupt whole territories into barren death zones.
Such a force struck terror into the hearts of Immortal Kings.
To an extent, it echoed the Dark Clan's essence, the Eternal Night's might.
The Dark Clan wielded that corrosive darkness to consume lands bit by bit.
Countless Immortals stood by powerless to intervene.
Should the Immortal World fall wholly to consumption, no race would find footing in its boundless expanse.
