Chapter 271 Willing to Be Your Sharpest Saber
The last Ascender before the Heavens collapsed?
Cui Heng was a little surprised when he heard this. He could not help but think of the description of how to break through to the Seventh Realm in the Purple Sun True Treasure Records.
According to the description in the book, one could only cultivate to the Peak of the Sixth Realm in the myriad worlds. If one wanted to break through to the Seventh Realm, they had to ascend to the Heavens.
The Purple Sun Heaven was once one of the Heavens.
Then was the collapsed Heaven mentioned here referring to the Purple Sun Heaven?
After all, the people of the Purple Sun Realm claimed that their realm was a fragment world of the Purple Sun Heaven after it shattered. They used this to show their orthodoxy and nobility.
If this great divine being who had walked out of Daozhou Star was really the last Ascender, then he might really have some extraordinary secrets.
…..
Perhaps the so-called destruction of the Heavens was also related to him?
Cui Heng’s thoughts wandered slightly as he thought about all kinds of possible situations.
Hmm… Back then, Li Fa brought the Purple Sun Heavenly Edict and the Purple Sun True Treasure Records to this starry sky. Was he also looking for information about that great divine being?
If that was really the case, this great divine being must have many secrets.
If he could figure this out, he might be able to directly “fill” the “experience bar” of the Late-stage Nascent Soul realm and even break through to the Peak of the Nascent Soul realm.
“Other than that?” Cui Heng continued to ask.
“There’s nothing else.” Hong Yong shook his head and said, “The situation was rather urgent at that time, and Mother didn’t have time to explain much. Oh, Mother also said that the surname of that great divine being is Zhou, but she doesn’t know his exact name.”
“Alright.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and smiled. “Looks like I still have to make a trip to the Dark Sea Star to take a look.”
There was a teleportation array left behind by the great divine being on the Dark Sea Star.
This meant that this person had stayed on the Dark Sea Star for a period of time. The traces left behind should not be just a teleportation array. Perhaps there was other information.
“By the way, why was your remnant soul attached to the memorial tablet?” Cui Heng asked again.
“I’m not sure about that either.” Hong Yong shook his head and said in shame, “Actually, if not for you conferring me as a god, I wouldn’t have known that my remnant soul was attached to the memorial tablet.”
“Immortal Venerable, could it be related to the special terrain of Hong Family Village?” Hong Kang suddenly asked. “At that time, the Hong Family Village you saw was already destroyed.
“After thinking about it carefully, I realized that the terrain where the Hong family’s ancestral hall was located was very special. It was a good place to nourish the soul. Is it related to this?”
“If that’s the case, it’s indeed possible.” Cui Heng nodded and looked at the memorial tablets.
He had a feeling that things might not be that simple.
However, there were no clear clues at the moment. He could only investigate later.
Perhaps he would only get an answer after finding Hong Fugui and his wife.
At this moment, Hong Yong suddenly cupped his hands and bowed. “Sir, I have a presumptuous request.”
Cui Heng turned to look at him and smiled. “Just say it.”
“If you see my parents in the future, I want you to help me pass a message…” Hong Yong begged.
“There’s no need for that.” Cui Heng waved his hand and interrupted him.
“Yes, I was rash. Please forgive me, Sir.” Hong Yong hurriedly apologized, thinking that he had angered Cui Heng.
“Don’t be nervous. I’m not blaming you.” Cui Heng shook his head and smiled. “After I find them, I’ll bring them back. You can tell them yourself.”
“Ah?” Hong Yong could not help but be stunned when he heard this. He said in shock, “But Father and Mother might be outside the endless starry sky…”
At this point, he seemed to have thought of something and said in realization, “That’s right. To us, this is a long distance across the endless starry sky, but to you, Mr. Cui, it shouldn’t be too far.
“I understand. Thank you, Sir. Thank you, Sir!”
As Hong Yong spoke, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
What kind of existence was standing in front of him?
This was not an ordinary Martial Dao expert, but an omnipotent Immortal Venerable.
To Mr. Cui, even the endless starry sky was probably not too far away. He could come and go with a flick of his finger.
Cui Heng was slightly stunned when he saw this. Then, he smiled and shouted, “That’s good. I still have something to deal with, so I won’t stay here for long.
I’ll grant you the authority to confer the City Gods and other gods. You’ll be in charge of the system of the City Gods. I hope that when I return, I’ll see a complete divine system.”
As soon as he finished speaking, a golden light condensed in his palm.
Dense mysterious runes jumped on the golden light, flowing from bottom to top.
Countless runes intersected with each other, forming talismans.
Every talisman condensed the corresponding authority and Deity Position, possessing powerful and incomparably mysterious effects.
Gradually, the outlines of these talismans became clearer, as if they had condensed into pages of a book.
In the blink of an eye, these “pages” automatically bound together, forming a book.
Golden light flickered on it, shining brightly.
The title was City Gods Myriad Spirit Book.
“Take it.” Cui Heng handed the book to Hong Yong and said in a low voice, “This book has the ability to confer a god and also the ability to remove a god. It’s your authority as the Master God of the City Gods System. Use it
well.”
“Yes!” Hong Yong held the book with both hands respectfully. He was so excited that his entire body was trembling. He said extremely solemnly, “I won’t disappoint you!”
“Don’t disappoint your father either.” Cui Heng nodded.
The day after Cui Heng left the Great Xia Kingdom, Hong Shen issued an edict.
He would hold a grand sacrificial ceremony in the Imperial Ancestral Temple and lead the civil and military officials to welcome the Hong family’s ancestor who had already become a God.
As soon as this order was issued, the court was in an uproar.
Still, in the past 20 years, this Emperor Wanxing had already become a dignified figure and had authority.
Even the Grand Chancellor could not make the Emperor change his mind.
Moreover, it was only right for the Emperor to offer sacrifices to the Imperial Ancestral Temple. No one had any reason to stop him.
Just like that, the ritual was prepared.
At the same time, Hong Shen ordered the various counties to build City God Temples and publicize the divine power of the City Gods to the people, summoning them to the City God Temples to offer incense.
Many important ministers could not understand this, but it was not appropriate to say anything since the sacrificial ceremony was imminent. They could only ask about the reason after the ceremony.
However, on the day of the Ancestral Temple’s sacrificial ceremony, something unbelievable happened.
The Hong family’s ancestor really descended! Moreover, he displayed extremely powerful divine power and called himself the Ancestral God of the Grand Temple, the Lord of the City Gods of the world.
What was even more unexpected was that after this ancestor of the Hong family descended, the previous ancestors of the Hong family also appeared in succession and were all conferred the title of Gods.
The City God Temple in Tianxia County immediately had owners.
Every county city had a God guarding it.
And it was a God that came directly from the Imperial Family.
At the sacrificial ceremony.
Hong Shen directly explained the core of the City Gods’ authority.
It was protection and supervision.
He hoped that the officials of the world would behave themselves. When thinking about bending the law for personal gain, one had to think that there was a God watching them, three feet above their head.
At first, be it the commoners or the officials, they were all skeptical.
However, one by one, the people who bent the law and people who commited evil were punished by the various City Gods. As more and more people who had done good or meritorious deeds in life became Divine Envoys after they died, the authority of the City Gods gradually became deeply rooted in the people’s hearts.
From then on, the people were no longer fearless. The government of Great Xia was cleared, and the people’s livelihood was even more peaceful.
The commoners could finally live in peace for a period of time.
….
The changes in Great Xia would come later.
Cui Heng did not return to Daozhou Star after leaving the Great Xia.
Instead, he went to the new sect Hui Shi had established.
After nearly a hundred years of development, the “Heavenly Dragon Sect” established by Hui Shi was already quite powerful.
Although it was not as powerful as the previous Immortal sects, there were already more than ten Human Immortals and several Earth Immortals in the sect.
Hui Shi, on the other hand, had become a Golden Immortal 30 years ago. He had resigned from the position of Sect Master and retreated behind the scenes to focus on studying martial techniques.
He always remembered his identity.
As the Immortal Venerable’s saber, he had to be sharp enough. Otherwise, he would lose his use.
This time, Cui Heng only brought Pei Qingshu and Li Mingqiong back to Daozhou Star. This made Hui Shi feel a strong sense of danger and panic. He was worried that Cui Heng would never need his saber again.
Hence, he almost devoted himself to the study of combat techniques to maximize his sharpness.
At this moment, Hui Shi was closing his eyes and resting in the meditation room. He was deducing the changes of various moves in his spiritual world to strengthen his combat methods.
Suddenly, he seemed to have sensed something and opened his eyes. His face was filled with joy as he knelt down respectfully.
“Welcome, Master Immortal!”
It was Cui Heng.
“You’re becoming more and more like a pure saber.” Cui Heng sized up Hui Shi and chuckled. “And it’s a saber that knows how to study saber techniques.”
“Being the sharpest saber in the hands of the Immortal Venerable is my lifelong goal,” Hui Shi said extremely solemnly. “In that case…” Cui Heng nodded slightly. “Follow me.”
“Yes, Immortal Venerable!” Hui Shi was overjoyed.
“We’re leaving.” Cui Heng turned around and walked out. He smiled and said, “Just call me Sir in the future.”
“Yes, Sir!” Hui Shi was trembling with excitement.
After Hui Shi arranged the matters of the Heavenly Dragon Sect, Cui Heng brought him back to Daozhou Star.
Next, he stayed in Changfeng Prefecture City for a period of time and guided Liu Litao, Zhao Guang, Lu Zhengming, and the others in their cultivation.
He wanted to let them live a little longer.
Otherwise, this departure would probably become a farewell.
During this period, he also increased the strength of the Hong River Water God to the Early-stage Nascent Soul realm.
Initially, he wanted to upgrade Huo San as well, but Huo San planned to cultivate to the Nascent Soul realm himself and gave up on this opportunity.
In the end, Cui Heng left a large flying shuttle in Changfeng Prefecture for those who came later to go to Tianzhu Star to undergo the trial. He also left an Immortal Incantation Spirit Mark so that it would be convenient for him to return in the future.
After making all the preparations, he brought Hui Shi, Pei Qingshu, Li Cheng, and Li Wei onto the huge flying ship.
They left Daozhou Star and flew towards the vast universe.
