Chapter 1448 Autumn Defeat, Stone Lotus Appears
Chapter 1448 Defeat of a Thousand Autumns, Stone Lotus Appears
The Heavenly Emperor's true form stood amidst the chaos, his expression solemn as he looked at the Xuan Yuan Heaven shrouded in five-colored light.
Beside him stood a silver-haired youth, the very spirit of the Taixu Measuring Ruler. He clenched his fists, sensing his surroundings, and after a long while, he sighed, "It is the power of the Heavenly River Dao Fruit that has sealed off the Xuan Yuan Heaven, and I have no way to enter it."
"It seems that the Merfolk Ancestor and the Heavenly Venerable made their move. The latter forced the former to use the Heavenly River Dao Fruit to unleash the power of creation of the entire Xuan Yuan Heaven to suppress them."
The Heavenly Emperor, who controls destiny, deduced the truth based on a few clues.
"The good news is that the True Immortal Dao Lord of the Jellyfish Palace lineage is still alive in the Xuan Yuan Heaven." The Tai Xu Measuring Ruler also sensed something using the Great Dao of Void.
"And the bad news?" the Heavenly Emperor asked.
“If the Merfolk Ancestor cannot defeat the Heavenly Venerable, the activated Heavenly River Dao Fruit and the great power of creation of the Profound Origin Heaven will be unable to be released. They will be sealed in the Profound Origin Heaven forever, which is almost the same as being dead.” These words from the Taixu Measuring Ruler caused the Heavenly Emperor to frown deeply.
Of the three realms, only the Heavenly Emperor and the True King of the Void are pure Yang.
It was precisely because of this that the Heavenly Emperor understood just how powerful the Heavenly River Dao Fruit left behind by the jellyfish was.
The Mermaid Ancestor was unable to unleash even a tenth of its power.
However, since the Heavenly River Dao Fruit has already been refined by the Mermaid Ancestor, if the Mermaid Ancestor were to fight to the death, he might risk losing his freedom and seal everyone in the Profound Origin Heaven.
In fact, the current situation is precisely because of this.
"Even if Senior Brother Taixu makes a move, he still won't be able to enter Xuan Yuan Heaven?"
The Heavenly Emperor thought about it and realized that with the strength of the True King of the Void, he might be able to do things that he himself could not.
"This is the power of creation."
The spirit of the Taixu Measuring Ruler responded to the Heavenly Emperor with these words.
【good fortune……】
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Emperor sighed inwardly.
Although many immortals know that creation is the ultimate goal of cultivation, only beings like Chunyang, who are only one step away from creation, truly understand how terrifying this realm is.
Forging the Three Thousand Great Daos is merely the threshold; the difficulty is almost a thousand times greater than that of the Pure Yang Dao.
At least the Heavenly Emperor was helpless when faced with the immense power of creation.
"I hope that everyone in Xuan Yuan Heaven will return safely."
In the end, the Heavenly Emperor could only offer this blessing with this hope.
After the message was relayed to the clone of Ziwei Palace, Chen Mobai immediately learned of it as well.
Because all news from the Heavenly Court needs to be archived and stored in the Void Department, Kongming informed Chen Mobai immediately after learning about it.
In addition, after the Taixu Measuring Ruler returned to Taixu Heaven, it also relayed the matter to Chen Mobai through Kongkong Tongzi.
"So, it's possible that the Celestial Venerable might never be able to leave the Xuan Yuan Heaven in his entire life?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai's expression became quite interesting.
This was naturally good news for him.
But recently, my luck under the blessing of the Holy Virtue has been somewhat exaggerated.
Many of his opponents suffered various disasters.
Even the Heavenly Venerable, who was in harmony with the Dao and had attained innate life and death, could not resist it.
This really made Chen Mobai feel that something was wrong.
After all, he was only at the Void Refining stage.
The fact that it could affect ordinary seventh-order True Immortals could be attributed to the innate treasure of Zixiao Palace, but the Heavenly Venerable has the Life and Death Compass. Even if the Natural Treasure of the Three Realms is slightly weaker, it is still an innate treasure.
There must be something fishy going on here that Chen Mobai is unaware of.
Just then, Kongming suddenly received another message from the highest level of the Void Department. After reading it, his expression changed drastically. Without even saying hello, he teleported to the Ziwei Palace.
Soon, Chen Mobai discovered that the entire Mi Luo Tian had begun to move.
One by one, the reclusive immortals and Dao Lords, riding their own Dao Dharma forms, entered the Mi Luo Palace. Among them were the Supreme Heavenly King and the Wuwei Immortal Lord, whom Chen Mobai knew.
Besides these seventh-order beings in the Mi Luo Heaven, the other Dao Lords guarding the Thirty-Three Heavens also descended into the Mi Luo Palace at the fastest speed.
Knowing that something serious must have happened, and with Kongming still not returning from the Ziwei Palace, Chen Mobai simply went directly to the Xu Department.
"I've met my junior uncle."
Ji Yuhan, who was guarding the Xu tribe, knew that Chen Mobai had arrived and immediately came out to greet him.
Since the Celestial Venerable merged with the Dao, the Lingkong Immortal Realm has been somewhat turbulent, so Kongming did not allow Ji Yuhan to guard Moyi Heaven anymore.
"But what happened?"
Chen Mobai pointed to another true immortal dharma image that had descended from beyond the heavens to the Mi Luo Heaven and asked.
"This way, Junior Uncle."
Ji Yuhan led Chen Mobai to a quiet room in the Void Division. The walls were covered with jade slips, and Ji Yuhan reached out and took one out.
"Something big has happened at Burning Heaven. Junior Uncle, you should keep this information to yourself after you read it. Do not spread it out."
After speaking, Ji Yuhan used a secret technique to unseal the jade slip and handed it to Chen Mobai with both hands.
Chen Mobai took a look and his pupils dilated in shock.
The jade slip contained intelligence from half a day prior regarding the eight-day rebellion in the west.
The Sage of a Thousand Autumns led the Heavenly Court army into Burning Heaven, acting on the orders of the Heavenly Emperor, intending to wipe out the land of exile there, avenge Yuwen Ji, and at the same time rescue the two seventh-order dragons, Kang Jin and Kang Yu.
Little did they know that just as the army stormed into Burning Heaven, they encountered that incredibly mysterious Demon Lord who had merged with the Primordial Dao.
The Demon Lord was not only highly skilled, but had also refined Kang Jin and Kang Yu into a supreme magic weapon. With its explosive sharpness, it was even more powerful than the seventh-order Kang Jin Dragon itself. It not only easily broke through the Heavenly Court army, but also cut off the Dao-building treasure of the Thousand Autumn Saint in a direct confrontation.
Fortunately, the Sage of a Thousand Autumns possessed profound virtue and fortune. He had a section of the broken tower left by the Compassionate Ancestor, which he used to block the Dragon Scissors. He fought and retreated with the Demon Lord, protecting his subordinates and disciples as they escaped from the Burning Heaven.
However, because it was a defeat, part of the Heavenly Army was captured in Burning Heaven.
When this news reached back, it naturally caused a stir in the immortal realm.
After all, the Sage of a Thousand Autumns, who wields saintly virtue and fights against demonic cultivators, is the strongest among the Four Heavenly Kings.
Even he can't stop the Demon Lord now, so does that mean the Heavenly Emperor has to personally lead the expedition?
No wonder so many True Immortals and Dao Lords from the Thirty-Three Heavens have been summoned here.
Chen Mobai suddenly realized.
"Is the Sage of a Thousand Autumns alright?"
When Chen Mobai returned the jade slip, he asked a question.
Ji Yuhan shook her head, indicating that the Thousand Autumn Saint was fine, but after being defeated by the Demon Lord, the rebellion in the Western Eight Heavens, which had been suppressed, reignited. It even began to spread to the other three realms.
"In the Spirit Void Immortal Realm, there are some seventh-order demonic powerhouses hidden. In the past, under the power of the Heavenly Court, they could only hide. Now that the Demon Lord has stepped forward, they are gathering in various places, stirring up rebellion, and raising slogans in response to the Demon Lord, wanting to change the world."
Ji Yuhan then took out several jade slips, all containing the latest intelligence obtained by the Void Department.
Chen Mobai saw familiar names such as Black Fly Demon God, Blood Transformation Heavenly Demon, and Ancient Demon on it.
"It seems this news can't be kept secret for much longer."
Clearly, while the Heavenly Court wanted to suppress the news, the Demonic Path was eager for the whole world to know. Now that rebellions were breaking out in various realms of the Immortal Realm, it was obvious that even the top experts of the Demonic Path already knew about the Thousand Autumns Sage's defeat by the Demon Lord.
For demonic cultivators, the might of the Thousand Autumns Sage was even greater than that of the Heavenly Emperor. His defeat dispelled the ancient fear of the Heavenly Court held by the demonic path.
"Therefore, the Heavenly Court must completely suppress the Demon Lord as quickly as possible."
Ji Yuhan spoke up.
Chen Mobai nodded, looked at the two Dao Lords who had descended again, and his initial shock gradually subsided.
After all, in terms of strength, the Heavenly Court definitely has the advantage.
If the Heavenly Emperor were to intervene, the Demon Lord would certainly be no match for him.
Even the Heavenly Emperor couldn't defeat it; isn't there still the True King of the Void?
"Is the Sage of a Thousand Autumns a successor of the Compassionate Brother?"
Chen Mobai recalled the Xuanhuang Pagoda he had given to the Spirit Venerable, and thought that the one in the hands of the Thousand Autumn Sage should be the other section, so he asked curiously.
"The Sage of a Thousand Autumns was self-taught, and he had a broad understanding of the lineage of the Seven Sages of Creation."
As Ji Yuhan spoke, she took out a jade slip containing the biography of the sage Qianqiu. After reading it, Chen Mobai was filled with admiration.
He truly came from a poor family and studied diligently, becoming the only one born into a spiritual realm to ascend to the status of a Primordial Dao Lord—a truly inspiring story.
That section of the Xuanhuang Pagoda was left behind by the previous Pure Heavenly King after his failure to advance to the Innate Great Dao. It was bestowed upon him by the Heavenly Emperor after the Thousand Autumns Sage succeeded to this title.
Next, Chen Mobai looked at the information about the Compassionate Senior Brother's lineage.
He only reluctantly left the Void Chamber after Kongming returned. This chamber contained all the information of the Spirit Void Immortal Realm since its creation; almost any question could be answered here.
"Junior Uncle, the matter is urgent, and I only have time to report to you now."
Upon seeing Chen Mobai, Kongming apologized first.
"What does the Heavenly Emperor intend to do?"
Chen Mobai asked this directly.
"The Eastern Supreme Heavenly King and the Northern Frost Halberd Heavenly King have received orders to lead the armies of the Eight Heavens of the East and the Eight Heavens of the North to the Eight Heavens of the West to support the Pure Heavenly King. Each of the Eight Departments will also send a True Immortal to lead their disciples to follow. Almost half of the Heavenly Court's experts from the Thirty-Three Heavens have been mobilized to suppress this Demon Lord's rebellion."
Kongming informed Chen Mobai of the results that had just been discussed in the Ziwei Palace.
This time, the Heavenly Court mobilized almost all of its resources.
Besides the main battlefield at Burning Heaven, the Eight Divisions also need to suppress or even kill the ancient demons causing trouble in other places.
Even if the ancient demons are resurrected later, at least for the time being, the Heavenly Emperor does not want to see them again.
Chen Mobai nodded, feeling that the great rebellion caused by the Burning Heaven Demon Lord would soon be easily suppressed by the combined efforts of the three Heavenly Kings of the Heavenly Court.
But things took a turn for the better than Chen Mobai had anticipated.
After the Supreme Heavenly King led the Heavenly Army of the Eight Heavens of the East to the West, the Heavenly Army of the Northern Heavenly King, led by the Cold Halberd Heavenly King, remained stationary for a long time.
The Heavenly Emperor issued a series of edicts, and for every edict the Cold Halberd Heavenly King received, his army would move one step westward, moving very slowly.
The reason given was that his soldiers were disobedient.
"The Northern Eight Heavens used to be the Empress's territory. The Star Palace was deeply rooted there. Although the Cold Halberd Heavenly King was also an incarnation of the Ancestral Dragon's Great Dao, he was rather lazy and didn't like to move around. So, even after all these years, he still hasn't been able to completely control it."
Kongming presented the latest intelligence to Chen Mobai, who felt that Hanji Tianwang, this innate Dao Lord, was rather useless.
If he were in office, he wouldn't need a century to turn the eight northern regions into his own impregnable territory.
Chen Mobai: "Do the immortals of the Eight Heavens in the North have no reverence for the Heavenly Emperor's commands?"
Kongming: "The Eight Heavens in the North were created by the One Star Dao Ancestor and the Water Mother. After the Heavenly Court was established, it became the Empress's base. Everyone, from top to bottom, only recognized the Star God Temple and the Empress, not the Heavenly Emperor."
Wouldn't this give the Heavenly Emperor even more excuse to settle scores?
However, after Wanling was captured, the Star Palace may have already made preparations. This opportunity is once in a lifetime, and they will probably use it as a trump card to have a good talk with the Heavenly Emperor.
"Yesterday, Tianxuan Daojun of the Star God Temple applied to be teleported to Miluo Heaven, probably intending to discuss this matter, but the Heavenly Emperor suppressed it and did not agree to her coming."
Kongming then mentioned something else.
The seventh-rank True Immortals of the Heavenly Court generally have the title of Dao Lord, but they are also bound by the Heavenly Rules. For example, they cannot come to the Mi Luo Heaven at will.
Will the Heavenly Emperor compromise?
Chen Mobai asked, "If we compromise, Wanling might be released, which wouldn't be good for him."
Kongming: "The Heavenly Emperor and the Heavenly Empress have long since broken off relations, and it's impossible to mend a broken relationship. Moreover, even without the army of the Eight Heavens of the North, the three Heavenly Kings alone could suppress the Demon Lord."
Hearing this, Chen Mobai felt relieved.
Given the Heavenly Emperor's status and realm, even if the Heavenly Court were to disappear, he would probably not be willing to bow his head and admit that he made a mistake.
Moreover, the more the Star Temple manipulates the armies of the Eight Heavens in the North, the more determined the Heavenly Emperor will be to kill them.
Next, Chen Mobai asked about the background of Hanji Tianwang.
Knowing that it is the first white dragon in the Three Realms, possessing the Primordial Frozen Dao, which is also a type of Dao of Termination, it is extremely powerful.
Kongming: "Junior Uncle, this time I plan to go to the front line in person to see just who that Demon Lord really is."
Kongming's judgment was similar to Chen Mobai's. He was a disciple of Taixu Zhenwang and believed that the Demon Lord could not possibly shake the rule of the Heavenly Court.
Therefore, it is believed that this suppression of the rebellion will be a great achievement.
However, given Kongming's status, he wasn't actually interested in sharing the spoils; he was simply curious.
After all, since the creation of the Lingkong Immortal Realm, there has never been a rebellion of this scale.
All the true immortals and Dao Lords in the Heavenly Court are now very curious about the Demon Lord of Burning Heaven, wanting to know how he advanced to the Innate Realm without making a sound.
With the True King of Taixu away and the Taixu Measuring Ruler no longer in charge, Chen Mobai is currently the most senior member of the Taixu Heaven lineage. Therefore, Kongming reports all matters to him and lets him make decisions.
At this moment, Chen Mobai saw a glimpse of the future.
It is a grayish-white stone lotus.
He was immediately startled, thinking of the world-destroying millstone that had disappeared from his Purple Mansion Sea of Consciousness.
"Kongming, come with me to Taixu Heaven first. Leave this matter to someone else."
After realizing that the Demon Lord might be the final sage of the Spirit Void Immortal Realm, Chen Mobai quickly said...
