Modern World's Martial Dao Human Immortal-Chapter 583 - 570: Existence
Alkaid's two demands, the first was somewhat manageable.
All directors of the Creation Group would work together, taking out their most valuable carriers, and even if it came to the worst, they could use their connections to trade with other Immortal Kings. It wasn't impossible to gather shares of the Path of Time and the Void Path of the Immortal King within a millennium; it was simply a matter of a not-so-small price.
But the second condition...
It immediately caused an uproar amongst all the directors present.
"Assassinate the Tian Yu Immortal King!"
"How could that be possible?! If we're not careful, it might directly lead to a full-scale war between the Creation Group and the Tianyuan Group!"
"Director Yu Xiao, do not propose such an unrealistic condition! We cannot risk the future of the Creation Group to pave your way as the Void Immortal King!"
Seven directors almost simultaneously voiced their opposition.
The repercussion of assassinating the Tian Yu Immortal King was too severe, severe enough it could potentially ruin the prospects of the Creation Group, so naturally, they could not agree.
Alkaid did not elaborate much, only saying: "This matter is not impossible to achieve. The existence of Tian Yu Immortal King threatens the current chairman of Tianyuan Group, Yuan Kun. As long as you can convince Yuan Kun to cooperate, it's not impossible."
After speaking, he stood up: "These are my conditions. If you don't accept them, I'll go to the Xi Yu Group."
"Impossible!"
Alpha resolutely opposed.
However, before he could continue, Xuan Qing also stood up: "Director Yu Xiao, don't rush, let us discuss this first. We will surely give you a satisfactory response."
Turn-Heaven Immortal King, Reversal Immortal King, Immortal King of Creation, and others revealed looks of surprise in their eyes.
From Chairman Xuan Qing's perspective...
He has a way to persuade them?
For a moment, even Alpha, who was most opposed to Director Yu Xiao, stopped the words he was about to say next.
"You guys discuss first; let me know the results when you have them."
Alkaid waved his hand and, ignoring the retention of Chairman Xuan Qing, left the board meeting.
In face of the great temptation that might be the final strike to breach the Ancient Immortal Realm, he knew that these directors of the Creation Group would never give up.
The initiative was never with them, but with Alkaid.
It was just that Alkaid wanted to rush to fleece them earlier on, so he appeared more amicable.
He only needed to wait for the results next.
Indeed, back at the board meeting, following Xuan Qing's revelation of the true nature of Alkaid's grasp of the Time Great Dao and the Great Void Path, every director's face changed color.
Only then did they realize that Alkaid's dual cultivation of the Time Great Dao and the Great Void Path was not just due to mastering some Secret Technique or possessing the One Body, Dual Souls ability, but because he had obtained the inheritances of the Time Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor in the Land of Destruction Path down in the Lower Realm.
The Time Daoist Ancestor and the Void Ancestor were of the Supreme Dao, and were originally two of the four pillars that constructed the entire Ancient Immortal Realm.
Especially when the two united as one, breaking the barriers between the two worlds and projecting their power into the Chaotic Origin Realm.
In other words, although the war between the Chaotic Origin Realm and the Ancient Immortal Realm has been going on for millions of years, the Time Daoist Ancestor and the Void Ancestor were the only ones who managed to burn the flames of war on the native soil of the Chaotic Origin Realm.
Even though they were subsequently crushed by Master of Primordial Yi with the Sovereign's power, like pulling weeds and plucking up seedlings, the specific extent of the shock they brought to the entire Chaotic Origin Realm was only known to Master of Primordial Yi and the Nine Great Sovereigns.
Moreover, it can be seen from the fact that the Nine Great Sovereigns have more than once sent Immortal Kings to the Land of Destruction Path to search for traces and inheritances possibly left by the Time Daoist Ancestor and Void Ancestor, how much Master of Primordial Yi and the Nine Great Sovereigns valued these two Daoist Ancestors.
Now...
What other Immortal Kings and Level Eighteen Authorities had been searching for millions of years and had not found, was now discovered by Yu Xiao. If they could make good use of this inheritance...
Whether it could deliver a fatal blow to the Ancient Immortal Realm, no one dares to guarantee, but it would definitely create a batch of Level Nineteen Authorities.
If all goes well, cultivating a new Sovereign was far from a pipe dream.
No wonder why Xuan Qing in the past millennium, had been selling iron pots to support Yu Xiao in re-ascending to Immortality.
Who could resist the temptation of achieving sovereignty?
...
Only in half a day, Alkaid returned to the board meeting under the pleasant persuasion of Turn-Heaven Immortal King and Xuan Qing Immortal King.
This time upon his arrival, he immediately received a warm reception from all directors.
"Director Yu Xiao, you've concealed your struggle from us. If you had told us earlier about such an opportunity in the Lower Realm, our Creation Group would have expended all of our resources to support you in becoming an Immortal King, and with the status of an Immortal King, to comprehend the Gate of Destiny and the Gate of Cause and Effect."
"Haha, Director Yu Xiao, is one thousand shares of the Supreme Dao, and one thousand shares of the Great Void Path enough? If not, we can think of ways to gather more."
"The Tian Yu Immortal King is indeed the biggest opponent of Director Yu Xiao's complete mastery of the Void! If we can eliminate him, Director Yu Xiao's share of the Great Void Path would surely approach five thousand! With such strength, you will have the qualifications to comprehend and shake the Gate of Destiny and the Gate of Cause and Effect! Therefore, Director Yu Xiao's conditions are completely justifiable."
One by one, the directors firmly stated their positions, fully indicating their unwavering support for Alkaid.

As if the scene of unanimous opposition from not long ago never happened.
"Thank you for your trust, everyone. Let's sign the agreement then."
Alkaid replied unhurriedly: "This time, let's make the agreement more detailed, so that you all feel assured, and I too."
"Indeed, it should be so."
"Let's discuss the specific details, timelines, execution, and share distribution."
The directors said as they quickly began their discussions.
And this time, it was not just Xuan Qing leading the discussion; when every director reached a certain item, they had to ask Alkaid, clearly showing that the commanding role had fallen to him.
This scene made Xuan Qing feel somewhat complicated inside.
But soon he adjusted.
What does it matter if all directors leaned towards Alkaid?
The agreement was signed; he would still be the first to become a Level Nineteen Authority Holder at the pinnacle, and likewise, the first to break through to Level Twenty as a Sovereign.
As long as these two targets could be achieved, even...
Even if only the first target could be realized, what does it matter if Alkaid becomes the Chairman?
And if the second target could also be reached...
Even if it meant the bankruptcy of the Creation Group and the sacrifice of all its members for this purpose, he would not hesitate.
Soon, the agreement was fully signed.
Once this contract was archived with the Master of Primordial Yi, smiles appeared on everyone's faces.
At this moment, the high-level executives of the Creation Group had entered an exceedingly united state.
"It is then requested that you all swiftly deliver the carriers you hold to me."
Alkaid too, bore a smile: "When I have cultivated the Path of Time and the Void Path as an Immortal King, I will deal with the Tian Yu Immortal King. After dealing with the Tian Yu Immortal King, I will proceed to the Gate of Destiny and the Gate of Cause and Effect. Then, regardless of the results obtained, it will be the achievement of our group. At that moment, everyone will be rewarded and promoted based on their contributions, elevating their authority."
"Yes, yes, yes, we are a group! Any achievements should belong to our group!"
"Hahaha, I also once thought about studying the Time Path in past years, but later gave up regretfully as it was too abstruse. However, I still have a share of the Time Great Dao, which I will now deliver to Director Yu Xiao."
"I have a good personal relationship with Chairman Yuan Kun. I will contact him to plan for the manoeuvres against the Tian Yu Immortal King."
One director after another responded with smiling faces.
All the directors contributed with their skills, wealth, or strength.
Unified and striving towards the goal set by Alkaid.
Alkaid nodded.
...
When the colossal existence of the Nine Major Groups fully mobilized together towards a goal...
Even contending for the title of Immortal King would be effortless.
In the time that followed, carriers of both the Path of Time and the Void Path were constantly being sent over.
The quantity was so large that Alkaid was even struggling to refine all of the carriers of the Path of Time in time, and he could only proceed step by step.
After all, he had been mostly advancing the Realm of the Void Path recently. Since reaching the Immortal King Level on the Time Path, his progress had come to a long halt.
But now...
With the most crucial step of the Void Path taken, the cultivation of the Time Path would become a clear and open road.
...
At the cultivation cave mansion of Yu Xiao Immortal King.
Alkaid sensed the growth of the branches representing Integrate Dao - Void, rapidly infusing the last portion of energy into them.
As this energy was poured in, the Void branch, which had a growth progression of 9998/10000, instantly underwent its final transformation and bore a Dao Fruit.
The moment this Dao Fruit appeared, Alkaid instantly perceived his understanding of the Void ascend to a new level.
Spread!
His perception of the Great Void Path, his comprehension of the entire Void of the Ancient Immortal Realm, began to spread in a manner of "spatial extension"!
Starting from his current cultivation cave mansion, it immediately enveloped the entire Creation Celestial City, followed by the continent it was located on, then the surrounding continents, and then...
The entire Immortal Realm!
And yet, the Immortal Realm was not the limit.
As the innate Divine Ability derived from his Dao Fruit started to operate, his perception of the Void broke through the blockade of the Chaotic Origin Realm's power and spread into the starry sky Universe outside of the Immortal Realm.
Propagating wildly within this starry sky Universe, all the way to...
The end of the Universe!
The entire Ancient Immortal Realm!
At this moment, he was blessed at heart.
More energy was directed to the Void branch already bearing a Dao Fruit, and the next moment, his Void perception that had spread across the entire Ancient Immortal Realm began to rise.
Not spreading!
But ascending!
From the original dimensions of length, width, and height, it sprawled into another, higher dimension.
Under this expansion, his perception of the Void instantly leaped out of the Ancient Immortal Realm and reached beyond.
Even though his Void Force originated from the Great Void Path of the Ancient Immortal Realm, at this moment, his Void perception seemed to tower above the entire Ancient Immortal Realm. In the state of a third-party observer, of a higher dimension, he examined and scrutinized the entire Void Realm.
As if a person, spinning and examining a globe.
Or like a pair of eyes, curiously inspecting a holographic projection of a universe.
Under such scrutiny, silently, the essence of the Great Void Path underwent a metamorphosis.
Transforming into something...
That could represent the Void even more so than the Great Void Path.
"Existence."
Alkaid suddenly had an epiphany.
From nothing to something, standing across from the Chaos Void, representing the core essence of creation from nonexistence to existence—Existence!
