Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Duan Ling Tian looked at the island in the air. There was a courtyard built upon it. A plaque hung above the main entrance that read: First Sky Courtyard. Then, he turned to look at another island and saw a plaque that read: Green Sky Courtyard.
Duan Ling Tian shifted his gaze back to the First Sky Courtyard and called out, “Ling Jue Yun.”
Creak!
As soon as Duan Ling Tian called out to Ling Jue Yun, one of the doors opened, and a grey-clad young man emerged from the room.
The grey-clad young man had an aloof expression on his face, and a longsword hung from his waist. His movements were graceful, making him look like an immortal who was not from this world. This young man was none other than Ling Jue Yun.
When Ling Jue Yun arrived in front of Duan Ling Tian, the middle-aged man bade the duo farewell and left them alone.
“How long have you been here?” Duan Ling Tian asked.
“Three days,” Ling Jue Yun replied.
Duan Ling Tian calculated inwardly. Since he had left the Simplicity Celestial Sect’s estate, it had taken him two days to arrive at Ax Mountain City. This meant that Ling Jue Yun had contacted him on the first Ling Jue Yun had arrived in the city.
“Let’s enter first.” After greeting Duan Ling Tian, Ling Jue Yun flew back into the First Sky Courtyard.
At the same time, Duan Ling Tian could see the air above the First Sky Courtyard rippled when he entered the courtyard. He, naturally, knew Ling Jue Yun had opened the Formation to allow him in.
Before entering the First Sky Courtyard, Duan Ling Tian looked down and only saw white clouds. The clouds obscured his vision of the Earth Courtyards and the Human Courtyards. He could only see other Sky Courtyards in his surroundings. Then, he narrowed his eyes and focused his sight before he finally saw vague black dots under the clouds that he assumed to be the Earth Courtyards.
‘When I was on the ground, I could see the Human Courtyards, the Earth Courtyards, and the Sky Courtyards. Each level seemed to be only separated by 100 meters. However, now that I’m in the Sky Courtyards’ level, I can’t even see the Earth Courtyards that are supposed to be only 100 meters lower. This means they must be separated by more than 100 meters. As for the Human Courtyards, I can’t see them at all.’ After a while, Duan Ling Tian figured out why the islands seemed to look like they were only separated by 100 meters; it was due to a Formation’s effect.
After entering the courtyard, Duan Ling Tian discovered the ripples in the air above the courtyard had disappeared. With this, the Formation protecting the First Sky Courtyard was closed again.
“This is the courtyard entrance’s jade token to the First Sky Courtyard; take it with you. When you approach the First Sky Courtyard, extend your Divine Consciousness into the token and it’ll open the Formation surrounding the courtyard,” Ling Jue Yun said as he turned around and handed a jade token to Duan Ling Tian. The words ‘First Sky Courtyard’ were etched on the jade token.
Duan Ling Tian saw Ling Jue Yun had a similar jade token hanging from his waist as well. He knew these jade tokens functioned like those hotel room cards on earth.
After putting away his jade token, Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun sat down in a gazebo in front of the courtyard. After they sat down, Duan Ling Tian’s Divine Consciousness sensed Ling Jue Yun extending his Divine Consciousness into his jade token. Then, it released an aura.
Upon sensing Duan Ling Tian’s curious gaze, Ling Jue Yun promptly explained, “The courtyard entrance’s jade token doesn’t only open and closes the Formation around the courtyard, but it can also control the Formation to a certain extent. I’ve just triggered a barrier effect from the Formations that will prohibit people from seeing us. All they will see is an empty courtyard. As for how to trigger the different effects of the Formation, you’ll learn how once you extend your Divine Consciousness into the jade token.”
Duan Ling Tian nodded and extended his Divine Consciousness into his jade token. A series of complicated information flooded his mind. The information was mostly about how to open and close the Formation and how to trigger the other effects of the Formation.
Upon learning about this, Duan Ling Tian could not help but sincerely admire the Formation master who created the Formation in First Sky Courtyard.
After a brief moment, Duan Ling Tian looked at Ling Jue Yun and said without beating around the bush, “Previously, you mentioned that we’ll meet that person after three years and leave the Spirit Overarching Heaven for the Jade Emperor Heaven… Is he meeting us here and taking the Transporting Formation in Ax Mountain City to the Jade Emperor Heaven?”
There were 10 more months left before the three-year period is up.
“No.” Ling Jue Yun shook his head. “We will leave from Ax Mountain City… He and the others will leave from their respective places. The places where they’ll depart from have the same Transporting Formations in Ax Mountain City; they’re capable of sending them to the intended destination. Once we arrive in the Jade Emperor Heaven, we can all enter the secret realm he created in his past life,” Ling Jue Yun said.
“There are 10 more months before our departure. We should prepare ourselves during this time. Although both of us have secret weapons, that person is a reincarnated Celestial Emperor no matter what. Moreover, we will be entering the secret realm that was created by him. Even if he’s nowhere near as strong as he was in his past life, I’m sure he’s capable of controlling the secret realm to a certain extent,” Duan Ling Tian said.
“Yes, we have our secret weapons, but that person also has his secret weapon… In fact, I’m sure his secret weapon will give him a big advantage when we enter the secret realm,” Ling Jue Yun said grimly.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. This had occurred to him earlier. Therefore, he did not dare to be careless at all.
“There are many risks entering that place so we have to reduce as many risks as we can and make preparations during these 10 months,” Ling Jue Yun said.
Duan Ling Tian nodded. This was what he had in mind as well.
With that, both of them began to make preparations.
…
Meanwhile, in the Murong Clan, one of the Three Sects and Two Clans in the Profound Nether Mansion.
Murong Xiao Xiao, the youngest and most outstanding genius of the Murong Clan was also preparing for the journey to the Jade Emperor Heaven.
She wondered out loud, “Since that person looked for me, he must have looked for Duan Ling Tian and Ling Jue Yun as well… I wonder if he found anyone else in the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories…”
Based on Murong Xiao Xiao’s words, it was clear she had also been invited by the reincarnated Celestial Emperor to the secret realm in the Jade Emperor Heaven as well. However, she was unaware that the person was a reincarnated Celestial Emperor. She believed he had accidentally found the secret realm left behind by a Celestial Emperor that only allowed Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials to enter.
When that person came looking for her, they had a duel. Within 30 moves, she had lost to him. Although both of them were peak Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials, comprehended the same number of profundities, and used the same King Grade Celestial Weapons, she still lost. It was clear he had many combat experiences, unlike anyone she had met. In fact, she even felt that some of the elders in the clan did not have as many combat experiences as him. Therefore, she had a slight suspicion that he was a reincarnated Celestial.
That person had told her that he was not from any of the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories. He had said he had traveled here to recruit people to explore the secret realm he found in the Jade Emperor Heaven. As one of the top three participants in the lower realm of the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, it was only natural that she would catch his attention. For this reason, she was certain Ling Jue Yun and Duan Ling Tian, who were both ranked first and second respectively, had also received an invitation from that person.
Apart from the three of them, Murong Xiao Xiao could not think of any other Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials who would catch his interest in the Profound Nether Mansion.
Indeed, in all of the Profound Nether Mansion’s territories, that person had only invited Ling Jue Yun, Duan Ling Tian, and Murong Xiao Xiao. The other participants did not meet his qualification at all.
…
In an unknown place in the Jade Emperor Heaven.
“10 more months. After 10 months, all of them will gather,” a figure muttered to himself with a voice laced with anticipation. He was hovering above a marshland that looked eerie.
The sunlight shone through the dense canopy of the trees onto the figure.
The figure belonged to a slender and tall young man.
“I’m sure they have no doubts believing me when I said I accidentally discovered a secret realm left behind by a Celestial Emperor… Little do they know this is a grand scheme that I’ve planned from my last life to make the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit bear fruits,” the young man said with a sinister smile on his face.
“The success rate of offering a group of ordinary Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials to the Heaven Sacrificial Divine Fruit as they fight to their deaths is only 10%… However, in my past life, I found a way to increase the success rate to 50%. All I have to do is gather a group of monstrously strong and talented Overarching Heavenly Supreme Celestials and use them as a sacrifice! Finally, I managed to gather a group of extraordinary peak Overarching Heaven Supreme Celestials from a few Devata Realms!”
