Chapter 1460: Faith
n an empty space, a middle-aged powerhouse stood with his hands behind his back. A powerful aura swept over him, like that of a celestial deity, making people instinctively feel awe.On the other side...Walls of the heavens.

Within the palace belonging to the Heavenly Emperor.

A towering figure, whose face was obscured from view, stood there. Before him stood the Celestial Emperor of the Upper Heavens.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Why protect Shen Changqing so fiercely You should know his true identity is a human. His existence is a threat to the Heavenly Palace as well."
The Chaotic Emperor Dynasty is willing to wage war against the Human Race, and for the Imperial Palace, there is no harm in this.
The Emperor looked at the person in front of him, also somewhat helplessly.
The Heavenly Emperor always acted with integrity, which was also what the Sovereign admired most about him.
>
Even if the Supreme Divine Emperor stepped into the pinnacle Divine Emperor realm, second only to the Divine Venerable, he remained unchanged in his original intention.
Therefore.
Only the Emperor would devote all his efforts to cultivate someone, wanting them to become the second Divine Venerable of the Imperial Sacred Palace.
But now the uprightness of Emperor Shangqiong is giving the Imperial Venerable a bit of a headache.
In the Emperor's eyes.
Both the Human Race and the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty are enemies of the Divine Temple.
Since they are the enemy, letting them fight to their deaths would bring no harm whatsoever to the Grand Shrine.
The best-case scenario is that the Human Race and the Chaotic Imperial Dynasty both suffer heavy losses, and finally, the Divine Palace steps in to wipe out both sides.
But now.
The Celestial Emperor personally stepped forward to stop the powerful figures of the Chaotic Imperial Dynasty, effectively diverting their anger towards Shen Changqing onto the Heavenly Pole Divine Temple.
This made the emperor furious.
If other God Emperors did this, the Venerable Emperor would have slapped them to death long ago.
But the person before him was the Supreme God Emperor. He could only suppress his anger.
Facing the questioning of the divine, Shang Qiong Shen Huang's expression remained unchanged: "The grievances between the human race and the Divine Palace have always been matters within the Heavenly Realms. When did it become the Chaos Emperor Dynasty's business to interfere"
If they let Shen Changqing go, the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty appears to be dealing with him, but in reality, they are targeting all of us, the gods and goddesses, and the Pantheon.
Furthermore, although Shen Changqing is a human, he has guarded the Heavenly Barriers for a hundred years and slain numerous powerful Netherworld beings. Therefore, he has made great contributions to the heavens.
If Shen Changqing is to be punished for killing cultivators of the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty, then he should be handed over to the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty. But what if other powerful figures kill cultivators of the Heavenly Derivation Taichu Emperor Dynasty If the latter resorts to seizing power, will we also have to hand over those who took action
"The actions of the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty are to uproot the foundations of our heavens. This step cannot be retreated from. If we face the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty and retreat even one step, in the future there will be no chance for the heavens to prevail."
At that time, the morale of all celestial races was in shambles. How could they possibly resist the Netherworld
“Besides... the human race's extinction is ultimately just a rumor that never truly happened. Back then during the ancient war, we divine beings instigated a cataclysm with merely a whisper, and that itself was problematic…”
The Shang Qiong Shenhuang's words caused the Huang Zun's expression to darken like water.
That's enough!
His voice was low, anger burning in his eyes.
"The extinction of the Human race was the result jointly deduced by all the celestial deities. There wouldn't be any mistakes. If the ancient Human race hadn't perished, perhaps the heavens would have already been reduced to ashes several eons ago."
You must remember, you are the Divine Emperor of the Heavenly Palace, not the Divine Emperor of the human race.
Shen Changqing is an ambitious man. Since his rise to power, countless powerful members of the Divine Race have fallen at his hands.
If left to grow unchecked, he will surely bring about the great calamity of our sacred temples one day.
"Your Majesty, please calm your anger!"
The Heavenly Emperor Shangkong remained unyielding and composed.
"As the Divine Emperor of the Huangji Temple, I am naturally a part of it. But Huangji Temple is also but one member of the myriad heavens. Now, with a great enemy at our doorstep and internal strife rampant, it would be unwise to dwell on such matters."
"If any Netherworld cultivators target the Heavenly Pride in the future, no matter their status, I will definitely not stand idly by!"
That's all I have to say.
This angered the Venerable Lord once more.
Looking at the firm expression of Emperor Taishang, Huang Zun once again felt a profound sense of helplessness.
>
Finally.
The latter sighed.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Very well, the invasion of foreign enemies is indeed a serious matter. Internal strife is unacceptable at this time. If you insist on doing so, I will not force you any further.”
Just wait until the day he defeats the underworld, I hope you can tell the difference between what's important and what isn't!
That's it.
Even the Emperor did not want to stay any longer. His body transformed into golden light, slowly dissipating as if he had never appeared at all.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
With the departure of the Sovereign, the terrifying pressure in the entire hall dissipated. A hint of helplessness appeared on Emperor Shangqiong's serene face, followed by a renewed sense of determination.
>
No matter what.
He has always been steadfast in his beliefs.
Then.
The Celestial Emperor had begun his seclusion.
His previous battle with the strong cultivators of the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty left him severely injured. Although such injuries were not fatal, they were a considerable problem.
So.
Even the Heavenly Emperor needs to make haste and recover.
And also,
Having slain many powerful figures from the Chaotic Emperor Dynasty, the gifts bestowed by Heaven itself that came down from the ethereal realm gave Shang Qiong Shen Huang some unique insights.
The once insurmountable bottleneck now seems to have loosened slightly.
You know.
The Supreme Heavenly Emperor is already a top-tier Divine Emperor.
If you continue to break through, the next realm is the God Venerable.
While the top-ranked Divine Emperors and Divine Sovereigns appear to be just one step apart, it's true that reaching this realm takes immense effort. Even if they accumulate countless tens of millions of years of cultivation, there may not be a guarantee of success in breaking through.
For countless epochs, the Heavenly Palace of the Taixu Realm has cultivated numerous Divine Emperor powerhouses. However, those who truly achieved the realm of Divine Sovereign can be counted on one hand.
From here, one can understand just how difficult it truly is to break through the realm of a Divine Venerable.
>
The Supreme God Emperor had stepped onto the peak of the God Emperor for millions of years, but he still couldn't take that step.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It's not just about talent when it comes to surpassing the Divine Venerable realm, but also about opportunity.
>
Only when heaven, earth and time are all aligned, coupled with one's exceptional talent and profound foundation, can one truly step into the realm of a Divine Sovereign.
So.
Many divine emperors spent their entire lives without hope of achieving the realm of Divine Venerable.
It's not just about reaching the level of a divine being, even becoming a peak-level Divine Emperor is a distant dream.
Now.
The bottleneck that the Heavenly Emperor had been stuck in for many years had loosened ever so slightly. Even this loosening was incredibly subtle, almost imperceptible.
But looseness is just looseness.
That's all.
That cannot be fake.
This time, the Heavenly Emperor's seclusion was not just to recover from his injuries, but also to seize that faint opportunity hidden in the mists of fate.
If I could break through to the level of a god, that would be best.
After all, the current situation in the Tai Void Realm and the heavens is not optimistic. The Imperial Shrine has lost two Divine Sovereigns before and after, only with the birth of new Divine Sovereigns can there be a possibility of turning the tide.
When the Emperor of the Heavenly Canopy was in seclusion, Shen Changqing was also in seclusion.
As for him.
>
Under the celestial rules, Shen Changqing is qualified to flaunt his power.
But if one day, the celestial rules no longer suppress cultivators' cultivation bases, then his advantage will also disappear.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That's all.
Shen Changqing must quickly improve his strength.
With only a handful of Netherworld cultivators left in the heavens being besieged, Shen Changqing didn't have much to do. Naturally, seclusion was his first choice.

When Shen Changqing entered seclusion, the heavens also fell into a brief period of peace.
In the third year of Shen Changqing's seclusion, Netherworld once again erupted into conflict, engaging in a bloody battle with the heavens. However, this time, the heavenly myriad races were well-prepared and prevented Netherworld from breaking through the defenses again.

In the fifth year, the conflict on the battlefield between the two realms intensified, resulting in heavy casualties on both sides.
In the eighth year, a small group of underworld cultivators took advantage of the chaos to break through the defenses, attempting to create mayhem within the heavens. However, they were besieged and eradicated by powerful beings from all races.

A Netherworld cultivator who had stepped into the realm of divine monarchs was beheaded by the Overlord Divine Monarch and died, his name spread throughout the heavens.
In the tenth year, several small-scale Netherworld cultivators broke through the defense line. Many strong individuals took action to resist, and among them, many hidden experts gradually gained recognition. Some veteran powerhouses also fell at the hands of the Netherworld.
In the thirteenth year, a beast tide erupted in the boundless sea, causing heavy losses among cultivators of all races. As the beast tide was about to break through the defenses of the Boundless Realm, a dragon elephant and a dragon sparrow suddenly appeared, slaying several top ferocious beasts and completely shattering the beast tide.
The fifteenth year.
Shen Changqing was silently衝擊ing the Dao Immortal tenth realm.
The entire hall was filled with a terrifying aura of Dao rhyme. Under the embrace of infinite rules, Shen Changqing seemed to transform into the master of rules, his Dharma Tree behind him almost solidifying into reality, its branches and leaves stretching out, a terrifying Dao rhyme sweeping down.
The road godflower, a deep crimson, is already showing signs of fruition, as if it could transform at any moment.

Suddenly.
A subtle aura wafted, causing all the power of the great dao rules to vanish suddenly.

For the first time in fifteen years, Shen Changqing opened his eyes. Inside the main hall, wind and thunder surged, like apocalyptic power raging endlessly, but it quickly subsided into silence.
"It's a pity, I still haven't broken through to the tenth level of Daoxian!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing looked inward. Now, his inner world had expanded to 1.5 million zhang, and the amassed immortal energy was much more abundant.
But unfortunately, Shen Changqing is still stuck at the ninth level of the Dao Immortal realm and has never been able to take that final step.
There's no other way around it.
The breakthrough to the tenth level of the Taoist Immortal Realm was more difficult than Shen Changqing had imagined.
Although it seems like only a small breakthrough in realm, the Dao Immortal Tenth Layer actually represents completeness. Compared to breaking through from Dao Immortal Sixth Layer to Dao Immortal Ninth Layer, the difficulty of reaching the complete tenth layer is significantly higher.
That is why.
Shen Changqing had been in seclusion for fifteen years, but he still hadn't taken that step.
But—
Although there were no major breakthroughs in terms of realm, Shen Changqing was not completely without gains. At least, his accumulation on the Ninth Layer of Dao Immortal was becoming increasingly substantial, and he was getting closer and closer to the Tenth Layer of Dao Immortal.
If he were given some more time, it would be no problem for him to break through to the tenth level of Daoxian by honing his skills gradually.
This time, Shen Changqing ended his retreat not because he had reached his limit, but because a powerful aura was emerging from Tianzong, forcing him to leave temporarily.
This aura.
Shén Chángqīng couldn't say he was a stranger, only that he was familiar to the point of being too familiar.
He pierced the void with his gaze, just catching sight of a figure sitting cross-legged in a hidden chamber atop Tianwu Peak. A terrifying aura emanated from that person.
The entire Heaven Sect was enveloped by this aura, and even outside the Heaven Sect, all the Divine Masters of the Heavenly Thunder Domain felt it at this moment. They all turned their gazes towards the Heaven Sect, their hearts filled with surprise and uncertainty.
>. You can't kill them or imprison them, and they are constantly growing stronger. I have a premonition that if this continues, the greatest threat to our human race may not be demons."Even the stronge...
