Chapter 1387: Chapter 1386: [Heavenly Court, Destroying Heaven Hall]

The Heavenly Court, an ancient legacy that is as ancient as could be, can even be traced back to the Mythical Era, established by a supreme being who stunned past and present, revered by later generations as the ”Overlord Immortal King”. It is said that this ”Overlord Immortal King” reigned above all the mighty figures of ancient times, and even to this day, no being has reached his heights, let alone surpassed him. Even in the countless ages that followed, although supreme beings of the Ancient Alien Race, Heavenly Kings of the Demon Clan, and Great Emperors of the Human Clan emerged, none reached the heights of the ”Overlord Immortal King”. He can truly be described as an unparalleled existence with no predecessors and no successors.

However, what Ye Tianchen did not expect was that in the legends he had previously heard about the ”Overlord Immortal King”, the Heavenly Court was never mentioned. It seems that the passing of time was indeed too long, and no one even thought about it anymore. Yet, although the Heavenly Court had crumbled, the Overlord Immortal King in his era led all the supreme beings to charge towards the Immortal Domain, possessing great courage, wanting to lead everyone to become Immortals together. He failed, but after the failure, the Overlord Immortal King did not enter the Immortal Domain alone; instead, he gave up on becoming an Immortal. His ideal was to become Immortal with everyone, otherwise, he would rather give up immortality. Such magnanimity and courage are truly admirable and worthy of being sung through all eternities!

According to Wang Luanxiang, after the Overlord Immortal King led many supreme beings to charge toward the Immortal Domain and failed, sacrificing far too many people, and also after the disappearance of the Overlord Immortal King, the Heavenly Court shattered. Some traitors appeared within the Heavenly Court, slaying their fellow disciples, seizing cultivation skills and treasures, completely disregarding the words of the ”Overlord Immortal King” upon his departure. These people had long harbored the intention of betrayal.

”A master only teaches one disciple?” Ye Tianchen asked somewhat doubtfully.

”That’s correct. Although the Heavenly Court crumbled, it endured through all eternities, but its legacy remained. As for a master only teaching one disciple, there are two explanations: the first is that most of the legacy of the Heavenly Court still inherited some of the cultivation methods left by the Overlord Immortal King during his management of the Heavenly Court. The height of the Overlord Immortal King was such that his cultivation spells must be unimaginably deep, and anyone would dream of achieving them. Cultivating his spells, once successful, it’s impossible not to become a supreme being; the second explanation is that after the Overlord Immortal King left, traitors appeared within the Heavenly Court, slaying their fellow disciples, seizing cultivation skills and treasures, and even set up another faction, continuously opposing the Heavenly Court, pursuing its people to erase them as evidence of the Heavenly Court traitors’ crimes!” Wang Luanxiang thought for a moment before speaking.

”Erasing them as evidence of the Heavenly Court traitors’ crimes? These traitors must have been very powerful, otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to defeat others in the Heavenly Court, or even leave behind just a trace of the legacy. What would they fear now? The Overlord Immortal King is no longer around; he might have gone to the Immortal Domain, or maybe he has already meditated into death, so what is there to be afraid of?” Ye Tianchen asked, somewhat confused.

”No, there has always been a rumor that the Overlord Immortal King did not achieve immortality with many supreme beings. He was neither discouraged nor gave up, possessing great perseverance and determination, and reincarnated with supreme divine skills... Some even speculate that the Overlord Immortal King is still alive now, just that for some reason, he has not been born into the world...” Wang Luanxiang also spoke with a look of great doubt.

Wang Luanxiang’s words left Ye Tianchen more and more shocked. Overlord Immortal King reincarnated? What kind of divine skill is that? It should be known that in this world, there is no such thing as achieving Eternal Life and becoming Immortal; since ancient times, there has been no such example. How could reincarnation exist? It is simply impossible, but the Overlord Immortal King could do it, which is truly defying heaven. There is also another saying that the Overlord Immortal King is still alive, which makes one’s scalp tingle even more. It really feels like a kind of logic that can’t keep up. This is a period traceable to the Mythical Era and the Ancient Early Stage; at least billions of years must have passed since then, right? If the Overlord Immortal King is indeed still alive, where could he be? Why has he not been born into the world? If he has been alive all this time, wouldn’t he have already achieved Eternal Life?

A series of questions arose in Ye Tianchen’s mind, and suddenly, he thought of something else. The Heavenly Court fell apart, the Overlord Immortal King disappeared, supreme beings within the Heavenly Court turned traitors, disregarded the last words of the Overlord Immortal King, slew their fellow disciples, seized cultivation skills and treasures, swearing to completely eradicate the lineage of the Heavenly Court, fighting until the present day? Then, what is the legacy established by the group of traitors in the Heavenly Court?

”The legacy of the traitors, what about their Taoist tradition?” Ye Tianchen could not help but ask.

Wang Luanxiang thought for a while before saying, ”It seems your master hasn’t told you anything, which is also for your own good. It is rumored that the Taoist tradition established by the group of Heavenly Court traitors is——Destroying Heaven Hall!”

”Destroying Heaven Hall, do they swear to root out the Heavenly Court? How vicious this truly is!” Ye Tianchen could not help but frown and say.

For Ye Tianchen, although he casually mentioned that his legacy came from the ”Heavenly Court”, he did not expect that there actually existed a Heavenly Court, and it also involved so many things, obtaining so much information. Although he had nothing to do with the Heavenly Court established by the Overlord Immortal King, after hearing the legend of the Overlord Immortal King, Ye Tianchen still admired him greatly, admiring such an unparalleled figure with no predecessors and no successors, whose magnanimity and courage were truly worthy of eternal reverence and emulation by future generations!

”In the future, if you ever do encounter people from the Destroying Heaven Hall, you must be careful. Although the Destroying Heaven Hall rarely emerges into the world, whenever someone comes out, they always shock past and present. Of course, you are unlikely to encounter people from the Destroying Heaven Hall on Earth; these people would not come to such a desolate place!” Wang Luanxiang kindly reminded Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen nodded without saying much, instead quickly refining the spiritual energy gathered around him. To his surprise, the ”Gathering Spirit Pill” given to him by Wang Luanxiang was truly powerful, able to gather a lot of spiritual energy together. In this way, he could quickly convert it into Martial Arts True Qi for healing. After seeing Ye Tianchen concentrating on healing, Wang Luanxiang also sat cross-legged and started healing too. It seemed that their pace along the way was fast, and they had erased their tracks, making it unlikely for others to catch up in a short time!

About three hours later, Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang opened their eyes simultaneously, not because their injuries had mostly healed, such severe wounds could not possibly heal in such a short time, but because they heard some unusual sounds around them, as if strong pursuers had arrived. This indeed surprised them; they did not expect the pursuers to come so quickly. Which legacy could they belong to?

After exchanging glances, Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang both nodded, quickly retreated, and hid behind a rock, using a Secret Technique to conceal their bodies and breathing. Given their Cultivation Realm, unless it was a master much stronger than them, they shouldn’t be discovered.

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Swoosh!

Soon, several figures appeared at the spot where Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang had been sitting cross-legged. It was clear to them: there were people from the Tripod Sect, the Xinyang family, and the Wang family. They seemed to have formed an alliance and were coming this way to hunt down Ye Tianchen and Wang Luanxiang. After all, Ye Tianchen had so many treasures on him that if they managed to kill him, his possessions might significantly boost a lineage’s power. No lineage wouldn’t be tempted by that. Moreover, Ye Tianchen himself was a fearless guy who had a relentless grudge with these three lineages; how could they possibly let him go easily?

”Looks like they’re fast. Knowing they might be hunted by us, they’ve already escaped!” someone from the Tripod Sect said coldly.

”Chase them. Given their injuries, it’s impossible for them to have gone too far. We can definitely hunt them down!” a member of the Xinyang family said angrily.

”Hold on, there’s something we need to make clear. If anyone dares to harm a single hair of our family’s second young lady, our Wang family will absolutely engage in a fight to the death!” an elder of the Wang family said sternly.

The members of the Tripod Sect and Xinyang family exchanged glances without saying anything. It was apparent that no matter what, Wang Luanxiang was a member of the Wang family, and she possessed the Red Cloud Treasure Mirror. With her extraordinary talent, she was destined to become a formidable young expert. During a time when three monstrous creatures roamed, the Wang family couldn’t easily make a move, fearing annihilation. However, now with an inexplicable powerful force deterring those three fierce creatures, the Wang family naturally wanted to protect Wang Luanxiang and would no longer stand by as she was killed!

The people from the three lineages left in pursuit. Ye Tianchen glanced at Wang Luanxiang and couldn’t help but smile as he said, ”It seems your Wang family hasn’t abandoned you. You can go back now...”

”I won’t go back. I have nothing to do with the Wang family anymore. I’m going to leave the Wang family and venture out to create my own world!” Wang Luanxiang said with a frown.

”So where are you planning to go?” Ye Tianchen asked casually.

”Of course, I’m going with you!” Wang Luanxiang said with a mischievous smile.

”Ah? Going with me? That... doesn’t seem very appropriate. I still have things to attend to. My mission in the Penglai Ancient Martial World isn’t complete. If you go with me, it will be very dangerous. We should part ways here, don’t you think?” Ye Tianchen had a feeling of wanting to slip away; this Wang Luanxiang wasn’t an easy person to deal with, after all. This lady wasn’t easy to fathom!

”Oh really? Then I might as well shout. I believe the people from the three lineages haven’t gone far, and if I shout, they will hear it!” Wang Luanxiang said with a sly grin.

Suddenly, Ye Tianchen instinctively covered Wang Luanxiang’s small mouth, then pulled her close to the edge of the rock, signaling her with his eyes not to make a sound. It seemed that someone was still in pursuit... (To be continued. If you like this work, please visit Qidian (qidian.com) to vote with recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
