Chapter 966: Mysterious Mural
ong the myriad heavens, it didn't mean that they were pushovers. Shen Changqing wasn't entirely sure whether he could handle them.Take it one step at a time.That is all he can do for now.This is unav...The bodies were piled into mountains.
Fresh blood gathered into a river.
On the ground, there were countless corpses of the Lei Ze Divine Clan, each stretching for hundreds or even thousands of meters. In addition, a massive mountain of corpses was piled up, towering over the city walls of the Lei Ze Imperial Court's capital city by far.
> Tread upon a mountain of corpses.
The Heaven Punishing Sword hung low, its eerie crimson blade held no trace of blood dripping. All the blood was consumed by the Heaven Punishing Sword itself.
Shen Changqing's face was expressionless, standing on the pile of corpses and overlooking the scene below. His calm eyes occasionally flashed a crimson, but it vanished in an instant.
A surge of murderous intent shook his chest before finally being suppressed.
This is the time.
One day, a disciple of the sect was blinded by carnage and tried to attack his fellow disciples. "Wake up!"
Shen Changqing's roar, like a bolt from the blue, shook all the cultivators to their core. The killing intent that had blinded their minds suddenly dissipated.
At this point, the disciples were finally able to wake up.
"Clear the battlefield, all severely wounded remain here for medical attention."
Shen Changqing's voice was cold, and then he looked at the strong men such as Dan Sheng again.
The Three Tribes Divine Kings and all the elders of Tianzong, upon hearing this order, shall lead the remaining cultivators to various locations of the Lei Ze Divine Clan, and with all their might, collect the resources of the Lei Ze Realm. You have only one month's time for this.
One month later, evacuate the realm of Lazareth!
"I await my orders!"
The elders like Dan Sheng and the strong individuals from the three clans all bowed their fists to accept the order, then led their people away.
Then.
Shen Changqing once again gripped the Heavenly Punishing Sword and slashed downwards towards the ground. The sword Qi ripped through the earth, with a tremor like that of a dragon turning over. Then, a terrifying chasm appeared there, as if an abyss without bottom, making people fear to look at it.
Shen Changqing rose into the air, his left sleeve waving. A gust of powerful wind swept across the battlefield, engulfing all the corpses of the Lei Ze Divine Clan and sending them plummeting into the abyss. The sea of blood that had once covered the ground was now considerably reduced.
Next.
Shen Changqing descended from the void, stomping his left foot with force. The earth trembled violently, and the abyss collapsed. Everything ceased to exist.
Although the body of the Raiden Shogun was buried, the thick smell of blood still lingered in the air.
The ground, soaked in crimson, was a silent testament to the fierce battle that had raged here.

The other cultivators who were resting in place looked at Shen Changqing with eyes full of awe.

A mere shift of the wrist can overturn heaven and earth!
Such great power, they can only look up to it.
Your wounds are not light. You may stay in the capital of Leize Royal Court to recuperate, or go to various places to seek opportunities. However, although the main force of the Leize Divine Race has been destroyed, there must still be enemy troops remaining in other parts of the Leize Realm.
Moreover, treasure vaults and other sites within various sects contain deadly restrictions.
"How you decide that is up to you."
Shen Changqing said lightly.
Although he allowed these cultivators to stay and recuperate, if anyone truly wanted to seek opportunities, he wouldn't stop them.
The realm of Inazuma is vast.

The Azure God Clan had been operating here for several ancient epochs. Just how many opportunities there were, Shen Changqing himself couldn't tell.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Even the Minghe Realm left behind by the Minghe God King cannot be compared to the Lei Ze Realm in terms of strictness.
This is normal.
Although the Minghe Realm was left behind by the Minghe Divine Lord, and the Minghe Divine Lord is a top-tier powerhouse among Divine Lords, the Lei Ze Realm has been passed down since ancient times.
Over countless years, the realm of Liyue has nurtured countless strong individuals.

Do not speak of the Divine Lord.
Before the ancient royal court of the human race perished and the laws of heaven hadn't changed, Shen Changqing suspected that those powerful beings above the God Monarch level and the Lei Ze realm all existed.
Given the presence of so many powerful beings within its borders, it stands to reason that the Azure Realm possesses a profound and formidable foundation.
Even after all these years of decline, the Lei Ze clan managed to survive thanks to the Lei Ze Realm. If not for the fall of the Thunder Emperor, Shen Changqing would have had no chance of attacking the Lei Ze Realm.
After all, as the emperor of the Raize Imperial Court, Raiō is in charge of the entire Raize Divine Clan and possesses the divine clan's luck. His strength surpasses that of those outside the realm by a significant margin.
If a desperate battle truly were to take place within the Plane of Thunder and Azure, with interference from a divine corpse like that just now, even if Heaven's Zenith Sect managed to seize control of the Plane of Thunder and Azure, they would suffer heavy losses. This.
That is the foundation of the gods.
Shen Changqing now possesses the power to suppress ordinary Divine Lords of the fourth realm with the Wan Dao Stele. However, there is a prerequisite: the opponent does not have an equally supreme divine weapon protecting them.
And that's all.
...it has to be quick and decisive.
Even if we win after a prolonged battle, it would still be a considerable loss.
Just like this battle, although Shen Changqing killed the corpse of the Lei Ze Divine Clan's master, his foundation was also greatly depleted.
Inner vision of the Ming River boundary.
Shen Changqing's divine sense swept across, taking everything into his eyes.
"Divine-level elixirs are scarce. If there are a few more battles like just now, I estimate that the reserves will be depleted!"
Chen Changqing shook his head secretly.
This isn't war, it's just burning money.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If it weren't for him possessing vast resources, he couldn't afford such losses. Now that he has taken over the Azure Waves Realm, Shen Changqing naturally wants his subordinates to loot as many resources from the Minghe Realm as possible.
But he had something far more important than collecting herbs.
Reize!
That is the primary purpose of Shen Changqing's trip this time.

"The fragments of Lei Ze are powerful. Without sufficient cultivation, it's unlikely to be able to carry Lei Ze away. Even if there were ancient gods among the Lei Ze Divine Clan, they likely perished on the remains of the God Master."
With the current strength of the Lei Ze Divine Race cultivators, it would be difficult to take Lei Ze away.
Therefore, it is highly probable that Raiden Shogun still exists within the Plane of Euthymia. However, her exact whereabouts remain unknown.

Shen Changqing walked through the deserted capital of Lei Ze Imperial Court. The city was empty, devoid of life. The Lei Ze Divine Race cultivators in the capital either had evacuated beforehand or perished outside the city walls; there was no other possibility.
"The Azure Dragon Clan has bloodlines left, but they shouldn't pose a major threat to the Heavenly Sect. Even if those escaped bloodlines were to grow strong enough to threaten the Heavenly Sect, it would take at least tens of thousands of years."
Shen Changqing thought to himself.
The remaining divine bloodline, even if it survives, what great achievements can be made. Even after thousands of years, the Azure Divine Clan's bloodline may produce a god master, but Tianzong would have long since reached an unimaginable level.

If the Lei Ze clan wasn't going to appear, that would be fine, but they dared to jump around in front of him Shen Changqing wouldn't mind cutting off the bloodline of the Lei Ze clan completely.

Half an hour later.
Shen Changqing stopped his steps.
Before him stood the imperial palace of the Leize Imperial Court, a hundred-zhang wall towering majestically, its imposing presence and the aura of power emanating from the divine sovereign who resided there forever indelible.
When other cultivators of the Reize clan saw the palace walls, they would inevitably feel a sense of awe.
But.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
The oppressive presence of the palace walls was as if they didn't exist in Shen Changqing's eyes.
With a single palm strike, he shattered the tightly closed palace gate and Shen Changqing walked in.
When you truly step inside, you'll find that the palace of the Reze Royal Court is even more magnificent than it appears from the outside.
The road, which should have been ordinary, was wide enough to be over a hundred paces. On both sides were palace walls resembling jade, with numerous frescoes painted on them.
>Above the mural.

The heavens were chaotic, and thunder roared. A colossal beast resembling a dragon emerged from the storm, and then this creature, unstoppable, plowed its way through every obstacle until it reached the pinnacle of power.
Scene change.
Once again, countless dragon-bodied behemoths surrounded a high platform. On the platform, a golden armored behemoth sat majestically, surveying all with an air of superiority.
Next, the scene changed again.
There were other beings, unlike those with human heads and dragon bodies, who paid tribute to the giant beast. Shen Changqing walked slowly along the passageway, looking at the murals on both sides. He understood that the giant beast with a human head and dragon body was actually the true form of the Lei Ze tribe.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The heavens and earth were in chaos.
Suddenly, a thunderclap was born, giving rise to the Thunder Lake.
The beast, also known as the God of Thunder, emerged from the depths of Raize, comprehending the path of cultivation and breaking through countless barriers to ascend to the highest peak.
Under the leadership of the first Thunder God, the race grew stronger and stronger. Later, it officially formed the Thunderclap Divine Clan, overlooking all heavens.
"The Lei Ze clan was once glorious, but as the saying goes, what reaches its peak must decline. In ancient times, the Lei Ze clan was powerful and made all other clans submit. But now they have fallen to the point of extinction. It just goes to show that things in this world are always changing!" Shen Changqing shook his head.
Don't even talk about the Raze Divine Clan; humans are no different.
In ancient times, the human race dominated all others. Now, they are on the verge of extinction. The current state of affairs between humans and the Reze Gods is akin to a stalemate where both sides are equally vulnerable.
Suddenly.
Shen Changqing stopped his steps.
Before him lay the grand main hall of the Imperial Court.
After a brief pause, Shen Changqing walked in.
The hall was resplendent with gold, supported by eighteen golden pillars. Looking up, one could barely see the top of the hall; the entire structure seemed like a space that stretched endlessly in all directions, with no end to be found above, below, or on either side.
If not for the entire hall being bathed in sacred gold, and the pillars supporting it, this place would be indistinguishable from the heavens.
When Shen Changqing stepped onto the main hall, a golden shimmer rippled beneath his feet, like stepping on water.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
In the center of the main hall was the imperial throne.
When Shen Changqing's gaze fell on the imperial throne, the entire hall trembled violently. Roars of dragons and tigers echoed incessantly, followed by thunderous rumbles. The patterns carved on the eighteen pillars came to life at this moment, transforming into eighteen real dragons that charged towards Shen Changqing.
"Hmph!"
Shen Changqing's face turned cold, and with a punch, he struck directly, causing the eighteen true dragons to vanish into thin air.
Just then.
A colossal phantom appeared on the throne, with a human head and a dragon's body. Its form was as vast as infinity, its eyes like the sun, moon, and stars, gazing down with cold indifference upon Shen Changqing.
A powerful pressure overwhelmed him, a sacred aura so immense that it dwarfed even the divine might of a god.
But this aura that could make even the gods submit, upon Shen Changqing's body, it didn't budge him one bit.

Upon seeing this.
That imposing figure, with its human head and dragon body, had a cold and indifferent gaze that flickered with a hint of surprise.
"I observe that you possess only the divine king level, yet you remain unafraid of my might. Looking across the heavens, only the chaotic dao body of the human race could be possible. You are not a god king among gods, but a cultivator from the human race!" **Identify** the content within the tags.2. **Translate** that content into English.3. **Remove** any HTML tags from the translated content.4. **Return** only the translated text.Please clarify your...
