Ancient Godly Monarch

Time flowed by, the clouds and winds of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realm was changing but those ancient heavenly deity clans were still standing at the very peak. As for things in the ancient battlefield, many people from the Heavenly Deity Race obtained some benefits but there were also some who hasn’t obtained a single thing.

This was already so for those from the Heavenly Deity Race, let alone those experts from mere overlord-ranked powers. After more people in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms knew of the situation in the lower world, many world overlord-ranked powers also started to give up.

During these years, there were once powers from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms that acted against Heaven Empyrean City in Azure Mystic. These people were none other than those powers backing the empyreans killed by Qin Wentian when he first returned to unify the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. However, Di Tian has been on guard inside Heaven Empyrean City all this while. He shared a connection with Qin Wentian and whatever Qin Wentian had experienced, would also be considered his experience. Even if he wasn’t in Ancient Azure Mystic, the amount of comprehension gained was the same.

And because of this, after quite a few failed attempts at invasion and the empyreans sent here to attack were all killed by Di Tian using the power of his formation, everyone was shocked. More and more experts decided to leave the Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. With regards to the current Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, those supreme powers from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms had no interest in it. Even if there was an individual with extraordinary performance, they would at most only pay him a little bit of attention.

In the blink of an eye, another tens of years passed since Qin Wentian entered Ancient Azure Mystic. During this period of time, he read through some of the ancient scrolls within dao depositories and learned how to create a spatial formation that could be used to exit this place. He then went out and fetched Qingcheng back. After that, he built a teleportation array linking the entrance of Ancient Azure Mystic to Heaven Empyrean City. After fetching Mo Qingcheng, he destroyed the teleportation array so other empyreans weren’t able to use it.

Although Qingcheng’s cultivation base was much weaker than the rest, given Qin Wentian’s face, all the heavenly deities were willing to guide her.

For those experts brought here with him from the Lifire Palace, Qin Wentian didn’t bring them in here, not even Xu Li. The implications of this matter was far too great, he was only acquainted with Xu Li because of Ye Qianyu. Although Xu Li was loyal to him, Qin Wentian didn’t dare to take the risk because he simply wasn’t clear what other relationships Xu Li had with the people from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. As for the people in Azure Mystic, it was not very possible for them to have a connection with the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. This place was their home, so they would all naturally stand in the same camp.

During these years, Ye Qianyu has also contacted him, asking him why he still didn’t return back to the Lifelong Realm yet and was he planning to abandon her? She naturally spoke in a joking tone, which was usual for Ye Qianyu’s personality. Qin Wentian told her that he had managed to obtain good fortune in Ancient Azure Mystic and is currently cultivating. He would tell her everything in detail once he got back. Hence, Ye Qianyu didn’t ask any further as she knew how serious this matter was. She naturally knew about the things that happened in Azure Mystic, the Lifelong Realm had sent four palace lords there after all.

Today, in the western direction of the floating city, Qin Wentian was inside a torn and tattered looking ancient palace. According to the Skybreak Heavenly Deity, this particular palace was once a place of faith where many people gathered. It was an ancient location of a buddhist sect that had countless branch sects that filled many places around the Ancient Azure Mystic Immortal Realms.

In fact, the Skybreak Heavenly Deity even told him that this buddhist sect actually had a very good relationship with the Imperishable Heaven Lord, the abbot and her were very good friends and would frequently gather to chat and play chess. From this, one could very well imagine how terrifying the abbot of this place was and what level of existence he was at to be able to qualify chatting and playing chess with the Imperishable Heaven Lord.

There were a total of 90,000 ancient scrolls kept here but after the world-ending battle, many of them had already been destroyed. Those remaining scrolls might be only a few but they still contained extremely profound knowledge. This was why the Skybreak Heavenly Deity brought Qin Wentian here to have a look.

For the process of comprehending a world heart, one could add in their own insights towards cultivation. It wasn’t something as simple as the fusion of source origins. If that was the case, the heavenheart mandates fused from two similar source origins wouldn’t have that great of a difference in power. The reason for the disparity in strength between world overlords was dependant on the depths of their own personal comprehension. Everyone was able to add their own comprehensions with regards to all aspects of their cultivation when they were comprehending a world heart. Such comprehensions include innate techniques, secret arts, as well as one insights about the heavenly daos.

Powerful innate techniques and secret arts were able to aid one in comprehending a powerful heavenheart mandate, or even comprehend their world hearts directly.

All of these were paths walked before by the ancients, their accumulated experiences.

At this moment, Qin Wentian was quietly seated before a dilapidated-looking buddha statue. He quietly flipped through ancient scrolls and the words recorded directly imprint themselves into his mind. For the dao records of the buddhist-path, the knowledge of cultivation was extremely deep and profound. Qin Wentian was immersed completely in them, imprinting everything he saw into his mind.

“Who would have thought that the Askheart Temple was merely a side-branch of this particular buddhist sect.” Qin Wentian mumbled. He flipped through the ancient scrolls and discovered the origins of the Askheart Temple. The Askheart Temple had always remained neutral through the years, and this time around, he didn’t have any opportunities to bring Reverend Tianxin here to the Ancient Azure Mystic for a look.

At this moment, before Qin Wentian, there was an ancient scroll with some words inscribed on it. ‘Great Nirvana Immortal Art: Second Volume’.

Only after a long time, Qin Wentian finally placed the scroll, which was the latter part of the Great Nirvana Immortal Art, back to its original location. This divine depository belonged to this place and he didn’t want to occupy the treasures here alone or move them away. If there was a chance to, he hoped that he could restore these locations where the divine depositories are stored to their former glory, allowing everyone else to know about them again.

“Senior, I wish to go to the World of Ten Thousand Laws again.” Qin Wentian transmitted his voice to the ancient will of the Skybreak Heavenly Deity.

“Sure.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity naturally approved of this. The World of the Ten Thousand Laws was the place Qin Wentian visited most of the time. Over there, not only could he gain insights, there was still another important function as well – he could try fighting against the different heavenheart mandates. Of course, the prerequisite was that he must have a certain level of strength.

Qin Wentian walked out of the ancient palace and was preparing to head towards the World of the Ten Thousand Laws but at this very moment, an imposing voice rang out in his mind.

“Qin Wentian, are you here?”

This voice sounded imposing without being angry, brimming with majesticness and prestige. Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed with a strange light, this should be the first time the Lifelong Realmlord was contacting him through the messaging crystals. Back then, the Lifelong Realmlord did tell him to leave behind a sense of immortal sense in his messaging crystals and the Realmlord also left a strand of his immortal sense in Qin Wentian’s crystal as well. However, he had never used it before. After all, the relationship between the two of them was governed by many factors but in the end, the Lifelong Realmlord still chose to pass him the Lifire World Palace Lord’s position and didn’t do anything to him. Since that was the case, Qin Wentian also didn’t plan to nurse past grudges in cases when the Realmlord told Ye Qianyu to dance for him.

“Realmlord, do you have orders for me?” Qin Wentian replied.

“Why have you still not returned to the Lifire Palace after so many years? The once in a hundred years banquet is about to begin. Could it be that you are preparing not to return to meet with me?” The Lifelong Realmlord’s voice was filled with traces of coldness.

“This subordinate has important matters to handle, I humbly seek Realmlord’s forgiveness.” Qin Wentian maintained a polite attitude.

“Important matters? You led so many experts of the Lifire Palace into Azure Mystic for what purpose? Also, what’s going on with the matter with Beiming Youhuang? I told her to go with the Skyair Palace Lord when they are in the lower world, why was she brought away by you?” The Lifelong Realmlord’s voice was filled with a cold questioning tone, causing Qin Wentian’s eyes to flash with sharpness. This matter was actually known to the Lifelong Realmlord. In that case, those other palace lords who had entered Ancient Azure Mystic actually didn’t die here and had managed to return.

“Reporting to Realmlord, Youhuang is my senior apprentice sister. Not only that, her father was also traveling with me, it’s only natural for her to follow us instead.” Qin Wentian understood that since the Lifelong Realmlord has already received the news, it was evident that he already knew Beiming Youhuang was together with him in Ancient Azure Mystic.

“Is that so? I even heard that you fought with the Skyair Palace Lord and almost killed him. How glorious it must be for you, the Lifire Palace Lord. You actually dared to question and disobey the orders I gave?” The Lifelong Realmlord coldly snorted, as though he was planning to assign blame.

“This subordinate has already explained the reason why earlier. I beg for Realmlord’s forgiveness.” Qin Wentian still maintained his politeness.

“Did you receive any good fortune in Ancient Azure Mystic?” The Lifelong Realmlord suddenly asked.

“Not yet. Given how vast this place is, it’s very difficult to gain any good fortune. However, I did meet with danger numerous times but even so I’m still trying to search for the secrets here.” Qin Wentian replied.

“No need to waste your time. Come back immediately, return to the Lifire Palace. Bring Beiming Youhuang with you and report to me when you come for the Lifelong Banquet.” The Lifelong Realmlord commanded.

“Realmlord, this Ancient Azure Mystic contains many terrifying secrets and many bouts of good fortune. This subordinate wishes to spend some more time in here.” Qin Wentian spoke.

“Impudent.” The Lifelong Realmlord suddenly snorted coldly, his voice thundering through Qin Wentian’s mind, causing Qin Wentian’s expression to change, becoming somewhat unhappy.

“You just need to obey my orders.” The Lifelong Realmlord directly said, “There’s no need for you to give me your reasons.”

Qin Wentian stood where he was. As expected, the Lifelong Realmlord didn’t speak again but Qin Wentian’s expression was still incredibly unsightly.

The Lifelong Realmlord actually sent him a life-and-death order, commanding him to return.

The him right now originally could completely ignore the Lifelong Realmlord’s order but Ye Qianyu and the others were still in the Lifire Palace. If he didn’t return, the Lifelong Realmlord might not be able to do anything to him but he would surely vent his anger on the people in the Lifire Palace.

“What happened?” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity asked.

“I’m a subordinate of a world overlord in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. He commanded me to return.” Qin Wentian spoke.

“What do you think? Are you not going to breakthrough to the world overlord realm first before returning?” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity asked.

“I’m still considering.” Qin Wentian replied. The Skybreak Heavenly Deity didn’t say anything more.

In the outside world, in the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty of the current Azure Mystic Immortal Realms, the Skyair Palace Lord, Xuanyuan Palace Lord and Dragonsaddle Palace Lord were all present here with their subordinates. However, the number of their subordinates were greatly reduced in number. In fact, even the Kanwater Palace Lord had disappeared. Those people would stay in Ancient Azure Mystic forever, trapped there for all eternity. It was only due to a stroke of luck that they managed to come out.

Right now, they were preparing to return to the Lifelong Realm but Beiming Youhuang had yet to exit. This caused the Skyair Palace Lord to be unable to fulfil his orders and he had no choice but to report this up in advance to his master.

And at this moment, the figure of the Skyair Palace Lord flashed, landing in the city, appearing before an immortal emperor. A powerful might radiated from him, the immortal emperor before him trembled and bowed with trepidation in his heart as he greeted, “Senior.”

“I will ask you a few questions and I want you to honestly answer them.” The Skyair Palace Lord spoke.

“Yes, senior.” That immortal emperor nodded. Although he was an immortal emperor, this person before him was an ancient emperor character that he couldn’t afford to antagonize. The situation in the current Azure Mystic was truly too terrifying.

“Do you know of Qin Wentian and Beiming Youhuang?”

“Naturally, Qin Wentian is known as the Heaven Empyrean of Azure Mystic, crowned as the overlord of this world. Beiming Youhuang was once the princess of the Darknorth Immortal Dynasty, the daughter of the Darknorth Immortal Emperor.

“How’s their relationship as apprentice siblings?” The Skyair Palace Lord asked again.

“Apprentice siblings?” That immortal emperor started. “Are you referring to the Heaven Empyrean and Beiming Youhuang?”

“Mhm?” The Skyair Palace Lord furrowed his brows. That immortal emperor hurriedly replied, “Senior, but from what I know, they never had a relationship of being apprentice siblings ever before.”

The gaze of the Skyair Palace Lord instantly froze as a terrifying light flashed in his eyes!
