Chapter 1356: Palace of the Gods Origin
d some terrible sound, their expressions instantly changing drastically."Oh no!""It's the Emperor's Falling Bell!"Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!All divine power crumbled in the...The guardian of the human race!
The netherworld is immeasurable.
Neither the venerable Chēng Qīng nor the Heavenly Mandate Emperor had any desire to venture into the Netherworld.
After all, no one knows how many powerful beings are waiting in the Netherworld. If you rashly step into it, just encountering a divine lord would be a dead end.
To enter the Netherworld, one would require a Divine Venerable to personally intervene. Are there any Divine Venerated in the Tai Xu Realm's Imperial Palace who can lend their aid
Chen Changqing casually asked about the situation at Jinghun Temple, the person before him was a powerful figure from Jinghun Temple, and as a divine emperor, he was in a high position, so what he knew was naturally incomparable to others.

The Heavenly Mandate Divine Emperor shook his head: “The current situation of the Divine Temple is also not optimistic. The Demon Gods are coming aggressively, and the Divine Temple side can only barely hold on.”

If any of the deities are missing, it could disrupt the current balance.
If the Imperial Palace falls, and the Heavenly Demons invade in full force, all heavens will inevitably be caught between a rock and a hard place. At that time, annihilation will be just a matter of moments.
"The situation at the Shrine is now extremely grave!"
Chén Cháng took a deep breath.
Although he had learned about the situation in the Heavenly Palace from Seventh Star Venerable, hearing it again from the Heavenly Mandate God Emperor allowed him to understand the severity of the situation in the Heavenly Palace even more clearly.

Then.
Chen Changqing asked, "Why did the Heavenly Demon appear Has the Heaven-Chosen God Emperor known this"
Heaven-Mandate God Emperor heard this, deeply looked at Chen Changqing once, as if pondering something. After a moment, he sighed.
"Actually, the matter of Heavenly Demons isn't a secret. Since Sect Master Fu wants to understand, this Emperor has nothing to hide."
Actually, the first appearance of the Heavenly Demon originated from the great calamity of ancient times.
“The Great Calamity of the Ancients!”
Chen Changqing's face changed slightly.
He did not interrupt the Heavenly Mandate Emperor's words, but allowed him to continue.
>The ancient war swept across the heavens, causing a cataclysmic upheaval where mountains crumbled and rivers ran dry. Countless powerful beings perished, and even the celestial barriers suffered gaping breaches.
With the end of the primordial war, the rules of heaven changed, no longer allowing for powerhouses at the level of a god-king or higher.

At that time, the remaining strong cultivators stayed in the heavens to cultivate at a slow pace. Especially those at the Divine King and Divine Emperor levels, their cultivation progress was almost stagnant.
Finally, a powerful being traversed the torn barriers of heaven and earth, stepping into another void.
That side of the void had no rules to suppress everything, it was just like the myriad heavens before the ancient great calamity. Just when the strong cultivators of the myriad heavens thought they had found a second myriad heaven, they discovered that this side of the void was not as tranquil as they had imagined.
Chen Changqing remained silent, quietly listening to the words of the Heavenly Mandate Divine Emperor.
The void spoken of by the other party is evidently the Netherworld.
"As I'm sure Lord Fu understands by now, that void is the current Taixu realm. As powerful cultivators from various heavens step into the Taixu realm,"
The Heavenly Demon appeared without any warning and attacked the powerful beings of all heavens. It is a race with a very strong sense of aggression.
If left unchecked, as it walks along the heavenly barriers into the heavens, it will surely be a catastrophe of unimaginable scale.
Moreover, the Profound Void Realm lacked rules and suppression. Powerful beings from various heavens were unwilling to give up the Profound Void Realm and retreat to their own realms. Therefore, the Heavenly Palace and the Profound Void Realm domain came into existence to counter the forces of the Demonic Heaven.
Shen Changqing’s expression was clear.
According to the Heavenly Mandate God Emperor, the war between the Divine Palace and the Heavenly Demons has been ongoing since the end of the Ancient Calamity, with ceaseless fighting and bloodshed.
In this way, over several ancient epochs, the Imperial Shrine couldn't recover its vitality to the state before the Ancient Calamity. This is quite reasonable.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
After all, the battlefield of the Tai Xu Realm itself is a meat grinder. The Imperial Shrine wants to contend with the Heavenly Demons, so it has to constantly invest powerful warriors to fight them.
Even if a powerful warrior could survive the carnage of ten thousand, even more powerful warriors would inevitably be buried here.
This leads to it being difficult for powerful individuals in the shrine to experience explosive growth.
"It is rumored that the Heavenly Demon is a native creature of the Taixu Realm. Is there any truth to this"
Chen Changqing voiced his own confusion.
The Heavenly Mandate God-Emperor shook his head: "The Heaven Demon might be a being from the Vast Void Realm, or it might not be. The Vast Void Realm is too vast, so large that even the Divine Palace hasn't been able to explore it completely."
As for matters concerning the Heavenly Demon, perhaps only the Divine Venerable can truly know. We, the Divine Emperors, know very little about it.
Besides the Heavenly Demons, there is another threat in the Vast Universe, namely the Chaotic Evil Spirits.
If the Heavenly Demons represent aggression, then the Chaotic Fiends embody destruction. Since their discovery in the Sacred Palace, they have been relentlessly devouring the entire Taixu realm.
According to the Imperial Shrine's calculations, if the chaotic evil spirit is allowed to devour the Tai Xu realm unchecked, the entire Tai Xu realm will be doomed, and the chaotic evil spirit could very well invade the entire myriad heavens through the cracks in the Heavenly Barriers.
So over the years, the Imperial Shrine has not only been resisting the invasion of celestial demons but also the invasion of chaotic evil spirits.
The situation in the Tai Xu Realm is far more severe than imagined. The fall of any powerful being could make the Tai Xu Realm even worse.
In the end, Heavenly Mandate God Emperor looked at Chen Changqing with a meaningful gaze, as if hinting at something.
That's it.
Chen Changqing's expression remained calm: "Remember the ancient saying, 'If people don't offend me, I won't offend them' This seat believes this statement to be true."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"With Lord Fu's assurance, this Emperor is now at ease!"
The Heavenly Mandate Emperor nodded.
He said so much, his purpose was also hoping to resolve the grievances between Chen Changqing and the Imperial Shrine.
It's still the same thing.
This is one time, that is another.
If Changqing still wants to be an enemy of the Imperial Palace, it will also be detrimental to the Imperial Palace in the future.
But upon closer thought, although the Jingu has always been at odds with the Tianzong, to be truthful, the Tianzong has never suffered any major losses. Now that the matter is brought out in the open, in the eyes of the Heavenly Mandate God Emperor, resolving the grievances between the two parties is not a difficult task.
> However.
Chen Changqing obviously didn't want to talk about this topic any further, so he directly changed the subject.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
"This seat observes that the celestial walls are carved with many formations, and there are powerful sealing formations in the vast expanse of the sky. Why doesn't the Imperial Shrine directly deploy a powerful killing formation or trapping formation to completely block the Netherworld Gate"
Thus, it wouldn't be so easy for the Underworld to invade the heavens.
"This matter is easy to say, but not so simple in reality. Even an array of the level of a divine monarch has its limits."
If only relying on formations to besiege the Netherworld Gate, it would be impossible to withstand the impact of the netherworld. It would only take a large number of powerful celestial lords to jointly attack the formation for it to be shattered.
Besides, setting up any divine formation is difficult. Just to set up the current sealing formation, the Divine Palace has paid a considerable price.
Otherwise, there is no need to build celestial barriers and directly confront the Underworld invasion!
The Heavenly Mandate Emperor sighed, a helpless expression on his face.
Chen Changqing asked, "Could it be that the Imperial Temple doesn't have any Array Master Masters above the third rank"
“The art of formation has long since fallen into disrepair. We cultivators primarily rely on our own innate foundation and rarely delve into auxiliary methods. Furthermore, even divine emperor formations proved ineffective against the celestial demons and chaotic evil spirits in the battles that ensued.”
But to step into the realm of a Fifth-Stage Grandmaster and set up formations comparable to those of Divine Venerables, the difficulty is many times greater than proving oneself as a Divine Venerable.
Thus, naturally, not many strong individuals are devoted to the art of formations. Even within the boundless Divine Palace, there aren't many Formation Masters present.
The words of Heavenly Fate God Emperor made Chen Changqing certain of his suspicions.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As expected.
The shrine doesn't value formation dao, and there aren't any top-tier formation dao masters.
After all, no one could have imagined that the heavens would be invaded by the underworld.
If there is anything in the heavens that can evade the constraints of rules, it would be formations.
For an array formation to be truly considered a living being, it must possess spiritual intelligence. Otherwise, it wouldn't be bound by the celestial rules.
But the problem is.
>
In the vast expanse of the Tai Void Realm, powerful deities roam freely, and countless other strong individuals exist. Instead of painstakingly studying formations, it's better to focus all your efforts on cultivating yourself.
Therefore.
The decline of the formation method was also inevitable.
The cultivation of formation dao is arduous, Chen Changqing deeply understands this. Having received the Qingyi inheritance and relying on his own comprehension and research, he has only now reached the middle stage of the second rank of the Formation Dao Grandmaster.
In a state where formations have limited efficacy, the existence of three Grandmaster-level cultivators in the Profound Void Realm is quite remarkable.
But.
It can't be said that there are no formations of rank 3 or higher in the Illusory Realm.
Like the powerful ones of the countless divine clans, each one is equivalent to an extremely powerful formation. However, divine beings are born with intelligence. Even if a god-venerable enters the heavens and manifests their true form, becoming a five-rank formation, under the suppression of the heavenly rules, they are only comparable to the peak of a divine master.
Just as Changqing was deep in thought, the Heavenly Mandate God Emperor spoke again: "Even with today's sealing formation, it took a tremendous price for us to set it up."
Besides the difficulty of the formation itself, it's impossible for the Demonic side to simply allow it to be set up successfully. They would dispatch numerous undead to attack and disrupt the formation during its construction.
However, the Shrine has already planned to set up a powerful killing formation behind the Heavenly Barriers. If one day the Heavenly Barriers are breached, this formation can also delay the invasion of the Underworld.
However, this Emperor hopes that there will never be an opportunity for the heavens to activate this formation!
Once the killing formation is activated, it signifies that the Heavenly Realms have been defeated head-on. The heavenly defenses will be unable to withstand the Netherworld's might any longer.
That is it.
Chen Changqing naturally understood the worries of Emperor Tianming.
>
“Until the very end, it remains to be seen who wins and who loses. Now that eight Death Spirit Emperors have fallen, the Underworld side will likely remain calm for a while.”
War itself can be an opportunity. Perhaps this time, Heaven will use this chance to produce several top-tier powerhouses who could change the course of events.
However, unless the Netherworld Gate can be destroyed or the entire Netherworld suppressed, this is destined to be a prolonged war.
Furthermore, since the Netherworld is capable of disrupting the yin-yang order, could it, after the ancient catastrophe, alter the celestial rules once more and revert them to their pre-ancient state
If that were really the case, it might just be the greatest crisis in all heavens!
Chen Changqing's words caused the ancient emperor of Zhu Fengjingshen to change his expression drastically. the Ziyun clan was able to send their own prodigy as the leader this time, Shen Changqing couldn't believe that other clans wouldn't also send their own prodigies.Tyrant!Of course, there can be no un...
