Chapter 567: Chapter 324: The Truth of Ten Thousand Years Ago! Holy Blood Heavenly Serpent (Last Day for Monthly Votes)
The struggle for treasures within the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain? Was this the reason why the gods descended thousands of years ago? Li Yuan held his breath.
When Teacher Lie Feng mentioned it before, he only thought it was a perilous place filled with treasures, perhaps a Fourth Level Star Realm.
But now it seems, it’s far more than that.
Just by observing the Ancient Divine Palace and the Civilization Mothership, one could glimpse how formidable figures like the Ancient Torch Divine, the Heavenly Serpent Divine ‘Qiu Bingzun’ are… still, they hesitated not a moment to kill their way here.
What exactly is hidden in this Burial Immortal Ancient Domain?
“Venerable one, are you a Heavenly Divine?” Li Yuan couldn’t help but ask.
The once eloquent, imposing figure with a single horn was taken aback and suddenly fell silent.
Alongside him, the Black Snake Phantom spoke gravely, “Heavenly Divine is an extremely great existence, even within the Divine Realm, each Heavenly Divine is a superlative being, one that emerges from a vast number of divines.”
“A Heavenly Divine can establish a vast dominion and rule countless planets… even within the Heavenly Serpent Clan, the quantity of Heavenly Divines is extremely scant.”
“Venerable ones are extremely strong even among True Gods, and only then do they earn the title of ‘Venerable’,” the Black Snake Phantom said, “If the Venerable one’s plans had succeeded back then, had he obtained the treasures within the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain, there was hope for him to become a Heavenly Divine.”
Li Yuan nodded respectfully, yet he understood clearly.
So, he’s not a Heavenly Divine.
Of course, Li Yuan also understood that just as there are differences between Flying Heaven Warriors and Demigods.
Fifth Rank Pseudo-Gods, Sixth Rank True Divines, even within the same realm, probably have astonishingly large gaps in strength.
Qiu Bingzun was an extremely powerful True Divine back then.
“Heavenly Divine?” Qiu Bingzun’s eyes glinted with a complex expression as he looked toward Li Yuan, “With your exceptional talent, plus my assistance and your advantage as a being of this domain, there is a slight hope that you could become a Heavenly Divine, roam freely in the Divine Realm.”
“A slight hope?” Li Yuan thought to himself, without contending the point.
From Qiu Bingzun’s description, it seems that Heavenly Divines truly are immensely powerful, far surpassing ordinary divines.
“Venerable one, what exactly is in the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain?” Li Yuan asked curiously.
What treasure could bring about the descent of the gods?
“You don’t know?” Qiu Bingzun shook his head.
“You don’t know?” Li Yuan was astonished.
“Over ten thousand years ago, I led my subordinates to roam a galaxy within the Divine Realm,” Qiu Bingzun spoke slowly, “Passing through a region, I felt the whole Starry Sky tremble continuously… I sensed the heavens and earth and observed that a great upheaval had erupted in your Mortal Domain.”
“I observed a magnificent and vast spectacle.”
“Above the spectacle, there were nine continuous mountain peaks, each connected to the next, every peak as though spanning billions of miles across the Starry Sky, shining with brilliant light.”
“Below, like lotus petals, there are huge leaves, a total of nine leaves, supporting nine peaks… Each leaf supporting a mountain, those nine leaves stretch, who knows, for tens of thousands of miles,” Qiu Bingzun said, shaking his head.
Li Yuan was listening so intently, he held his breath. No wonder Qiu Bingzun had asked him at the beginning if he knew about ‘Nine Mountains Nine Leaves’.
So that’s how it was.
“That spectacle was just a projection,”
“Reflecting across numerous galaxies and planets!”
“It caused an uproar,” Qiu Bingzun said, “Soon, many gods from neighboring galaxies calculated that the source of this miraculous sight was your Mortal Domain.”
“And there were quickly rumors that an extremely powerful being was buried in your Mortal Domain, leaving behind a grand treasure.”
“That is the Burial Immortal Ancient Domain.”
“Moreover, the ‘window’ to enter your Mortal Domain was quickly diminishing,” Qiu Bingzun said, “So many deities didn’t dare to hesitate and all desperately descended into your Mortal Domain.”
“A great number of divine beings.”
“However, just the process of descending led to the fall of more than half of the deities,” Qiu Bingzun said solemnly, “Even beings of True God status perished.”
Li Yuan shuddered at the thought.
Is it that dangerous? Just traveling caused True Gods to fall?
“Venerable One, what is a window?” Li Yuan asked, puzzled.
“Countless Mortal Domains, all orbit the Divine Realm by the laws of heaven and earth,” the Black Snake Phantom said solemnly, “For the vast majority of the time, the Mortal Domains are far from the Divine Realm, the connection very weak, the barrier of the Dimensional Domain incredibly thick, not even Heavenly Divine can tear it… Only at very rare times, the Mortal Domains, drawn by the Divine Realm, come close, space becomes unstable, Fifth Order Divine Beings can traverse… that is the ‘window’.”
Li Yuan had an epiphany; in this vast starry sky, numerous Mortal Domains and Divine Realms are constantly rotating.
“Once the window is missed, then, unless it is the native life of that Mortal Domain, who can leverage the primal force of the Dimensional Domain, there is hope to return,” the Black Snake Phantom said, “All outsiders are unable to enter this Mortal Domain.”
“Even so, traversing different Dimensional Domains is extremely dangerous… Countless unseen spatial rifts will end most who dare to pass, Divine Beings at the Demigod rank are undoubtedly doomed.”
“At least a Fifth Rank Pseudo-God would have a chance to make it through,” the Black Snake Phantom said.
Li Yuan nodded unwittingly, it seemed celestial beings from the Divine Realm also faced tremendous danger in trying to descend.
“Did no Heavenly Divine come?” Li Yuan asked curiously.
“First, the event was sudden, many powerful forces’ elites hadn’t arrived when the window already closed,” Qiu Bingzun said softly, “As for the Heavenly Divine, maybe some of them did come, but the limit of outsiders allowed by the Mortal Domain is ‘Sixth Rank True Divine’.”
“Heavenly Divine cannot descend into a non-native Mortal Domain; they are too powerful and would be repelled by the primal force of the Mortal Domain… If they forcefully intrude, they will certainly perish.”
Li Yuan immediately understood.
Among the descending gods, the Heavenly Serpent Divine must be among the strongest.
“Struggling through the channels of the Dimensional Domain,” Qiu Bingzun’s eyes held a hint of reminiscence, “I sensed many powerful beings, all True Gods; we were suppressed by the primal forces, unable to enter the Dimensional Plane, only able to journey through the ‘starry rifts’ between the planes.”
