Chapter 1368 Generous Reward
Pride. In that case, it would be better to surrender and minimize our losses.With the Lei Yin Sect and Hualing Sect leading the way, even if the remaining eleven sects were unwilling in their hearts,...Inside the Netherworld Gate, darkness surged.
Just as Shen Changqing was about to peer into the underworld, a pair of emotionless eyes suddenly appeared.
Their eyes met.
Shen Changqing felt a terrifying killing intent engulf him, causing his blood to boil instantly. Even the divine tree in his internal world trembled violently.
Immediately.
Even with his eyes closed for a moment, when Shen Changqing opened them again and looked at the Netherworld Gate, his gaze was even heavier.
"Are you a deity"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Or...the Dark Master
Thinking of the scene where they had just met each other's eyes, Shen Changqing couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
There is no doubt.
The owner of those pupils must be incredibly powerful, most likely surpassing even a God Emperor in strength.
In the netherworld, the existence of powerful divine beings is not something strange.
After all, the history of the Netherworld is comparable to that of the heavens. Over countless millennia, it has nurtured countless top-tier powerhouses. There must certainly be prodigies who have attained the status of a God Venerable.
However, these deities did not act lightly but lurked in the shadows behind the Netherworld.
Unprovoked.

Shen Changqing thought of the Reincarnation God.
That was in Qingyi's mouth, someone who could rival the Emperor of Qinglian even in the underworld. Their power is evident.
If even the Reincarnation God-King submits to the Dark Forbidden Master, then the Dark Forbidden Master's strength is far more terrifying than Shen Changqing imagined.
However.
As for the current situation of the Hall of Reincarnation and the Lord of Reincarnation, Shen Changqing was also unaware.
Moreover, he did not activate the Heavenly Eye again to peer into the sights within the underworld.

The Broken Illusions Sky Eye is ultimately inferior to the Vast Profound Sky Eye. If the Nether Gate hadn't opened and the passage between realms wasn't unlocked, the Broken Illusions Sky Eye wouldn't even have the qualifications to peek into the Netherworld.

But even with a powerful figure obstructing their path, Shen Changqing was unable to truly investigate the truth of the Netherworld, even though the interdimensional passage lay right before him.
>
Unless.
The Heavenly Eye can truly advance and reach the level of a Profound Sky Eye.
But unfortunately, Shen Changqing has yet to truly master the Tongyu Heaven's Eye.
“The transformation of the Heaven's Eye is rare and unpredictable. Even though I have devoured hundreds of carriers now, it still hasn't allowed the Piercing Illusions Heaven's Eye to transform. To truly ascend to the Profoundly Transparent Heaven's Eye, I wonder how many more carriers would be needed!”
Thinking of the difficulty of Tongyu Tianyan, Shen Changqing couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
To promote Heavenly Eye to the profound level, the difficulty might even surpass condensing one's own Dao fruit.
Unlike the Chaos Stele, the Carriers are crucial to the ascension of all races across the myriad heavens. Shen Changqing's rampant plundering of Carriers over the years has driven their prices through the roof.
Even with the formidable foundation of Tianzong, Shen Changqing was unable to continuously plunder the carrier objects.
Therefore.
By the time twenty years had passed, Shen Changqing had essentially put a halt to Yunyan Pavilion's acquisitions of carrying objects.
It's not that I don't want to collect them, it's just that the divine crystals are hard to sustain.
But...
As the Pox-Breaking Sky Eye deepened, and swallowed more and more carriers, Shen Changqing had some ideas about cultivating the Sky Eye.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
What is called a carrier, in essence, is the product condensed from the birth and death of rules. Rules nurture heaven and earth, and the birth of heaven and earth is the birth of rules. The destruction of heaven and earth is the destruction of rules.
In that case, Shen Changqing needn't carry any objects. He could directly absorb the power emanating between birth and death as nourishment for cultivating his Heavenly Eye.
However.
These are just Shen Changqing's own ideas for now, and he hasn't had time to verify them.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If things truly go as he expects, then cultivating the Heavenly Eye afterwards will be much easier.
At that moment.
A familiar fluctuation rippled through the void. Shen Changqing turned his head, his expression changing slightly.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Emperor of Heaven's Mandate!"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The one who arrived was Zhu Fengjingu's Heavenly Mandate Divine Emperor.
Unlike a hundred years ago, the current Heavenly Mandate God Emperor's left arm is missing, as if it had been brutally severed. He also carries an undeniable aura of killing intent.
"Sect Leader Fu, it's been a hundred years!"
"What is the God Emperor's arm"
Shen Changqing’s face showed confusion.
Even a cultivator at the divine realm can effortlessly achieve flesh and blood regeneration, with broken limbs healing on their own. How much more so for those at the emperor level
Such a powerful individual, even if their arm were severed, or even if half of their body vanished, as long as their life force remained, they could recover instantly to their original state.
This is the powerful life force of top-tier powerhouses. To eradicate them, one must obliterate their vitality with a lightning-fast strike.
Otherwise.
>
For those who can regenerate flesh and blood, they can heal themselves.
But when his gaze fell on the severed arm of Emperor Tianming, Shen Changqing felt a power lingering there, like a tenacious bone-gnawing maggot that refused to die.
It is precisely because such power exists that it becomes the culprit preventing its wounds from healing.
Upon hearing this.
Heavenly Emperor chuckled, "It's not a big deal. I just lost an arm during a fight with the Godly Venerable, but I'm not dead."
"God Venerable..."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Shen Changqing's expression changed again, and he immediately gave the Heavenly Mandate God Emperor a deep look.
Though the other party spoke lightly, being able to spar with a deity and survive is astonishing in itself.
At the same time.
Shen Changqing now understood why the other party had a severed arm that hadn't healed. If it was a god who made the attack, then preventing the arm from healing would be normal.
"This seat remembers that the Zhu Feng Shrine also has a divine sovereign presiding over it. Why doesn't Divine Emperor ask the divine sovereign to intervene and solve the problem of the severed limb"

“As for me, losing an arm might not be a bad thing. This loss serves as a constant reminder of that battle, and one day I will avenge myself!”
>
The Heavenly Mandate God Emperor's eyes rarely showed such fighting spirit, the kind that wanted to challenge even a god sovereign. This made even Shen Changqing's heart tremble slightly.
The feeling Heavenly Emperor gave him this time was different from before.
As for where the difference lay, Shen Changqing couldn't say. But he could be sure that the Heavenly Mandate Emperor after losing his arm was probably even stronger than before.
"Decades ago, a divine being fell. How is the current situation in the Tai Xu Realm"
Shen Changqing asked.
The Divine Emperor of Heaven before us descended from the battlefield in the Profound Void Realm, he must surely be aware of the changing circumstances.
Upon hearing this.
The Heavenly Mandate God Emperor's smile disappeared, replaced by a serious expression: "Decades ago, when the Demon Army attacked, a Divine Venerable made their move from afar, causing the Water Venerable of the Five Elements God Emperor to appear. Afterward, several Divine Venerables ambushed and assassinated others in secret, catching all other divine palaces off guard."
Although Shui Zun self-destructed before his death, severely injuring the Tianmo Shuzhi Shenzun, it also caused heavy losses to the power of the Jinghun side.

Since then, the demonic attacks have intensified, shrinking the Taixu Realm bit by bit. Now even the Imperial Palace is struggling to hold on, and no one knows how long it can last.
Tianming Shenhuang's words caused Shen Changqing's face to turn grave.
The situation in the Heavenly Divine Palace within the Vast Expanse Realm is not optimistic. This was something he could have guessed long ago, after all, the fall of the Divine Sovereign brought about no small amount of problems.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Today's decree from the Heavenly Emperor, in a way, confirmed what Shen Changqing had thought all along.
"In that case, is the Imperial Shrine planning to abandon the Netherworld and retreat all the celestial realms"
“The Imperial Shrine does indeed have such thoughts, but this is a last resort. The Imperial Shrine will not give up the Netherworld until the very last moment.”
The Heavenly Mandate Emperor spoke in a low voice.
The Void Realm represents hope and the future. For other powerful beings, the heavens are too small, confining themselves only to cultivators below the level of a divine monarch.
If we retreat to the heavens, it would be the same as giving up hope. The final result would still be annihilation. The only difference is that retreating to the heavens would allow us to last a little longer, and that's all.
So.
Even if there is a glimmer of hope, the Imperial Shrine will steadfastly guard the territory of the Taixu Realm and will never withdraw from all heavens.
Unless the Imperial Palace suffers a complete defeat, leaving no possibility of resisting the Heavenly Demons, they would never abandon the Tai Xu realm and return to the myriad heavens.
"Right now, all I hope is that the Grand Shrine will produce a couple of new Divine Lords. That way, there's a chance we can alleviate the current crisis."
It's not easy to prove the existence of a divine being, many powerful cultivators who have reached the pinnacle of God Emperor realm spend their entire lives stuck in place, unable to break through that barrier.

When it comes to the realm of deities, even Heavenly Mandate Divine Emperor's expression turns melancholic. He also harbors a deep yearning for this realm within his heart.
Though the Divine Venerable appears to be just a step away from the Divine Emperor, the gap between them is vast.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
It's not easy to truly break free from this kind of restriction.
That's all I have to say on that.
The Heavenly Mandate God Emperor looked at Shen Changqing and said seriously, "Sect Master Fu's talent surpasses that of all ages. If anyone has a chance to become a Dao-Proving Divine Venerable, your chances are greater than many God Emperors."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The heavens are ultimately too small. If the Head Disciple is willing, they could enter the Taixu realm for training. While the battlefields there are dangerous, they also offer numerous opportunities.
And if the Lord of the Temple is willing, the Zhu Phoenix Divine Palace is also willing to protect you.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
By the end, Heaven's Mandate Divine Emperor was directly extending an olive branch.
Shen Changqing heard this and shook his head, saying: "If there is an opportunity in the Tai Xu Realm, this seat will naturally go there, but now it is not the time."
"Well then, let the Sect Master consider these matters himself. Should he require anything, feel free to contact me at any time."
As they spoke, the Heavenly Mandate Emperor handed Shen Changqing a storage ring.
>
"These years, Fu Zongzhu has been sitting in the Heavenly Walls, slaying many Netherworld experts. These are rewards from the Divine Palace. Fu Zongzhu can count them one by one."
"No problem!"
Shen Changqing's divine consciousness fell on it, and he saw many fragments of the Divine Kingdom inside. There were some at the level of a Divine Sovereign, some at the level of a Divine Master, and the rest were a large amount of cultivation resources.
Elixir!
Herbal medicine!
Divine crystal!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Countless resources, nearly filling the entire storage ring to the brim, this was the reward given to Shen Changqing after he wiped out the Netherworld army back then.
Just a cursory glance, Shen Changqing was unable to estimate the value of these resources and fragments of the divine kingdom.
But there is no doubt that, with this part of the rewards given by the shrine, it can greatly relieve the financial pressure itself.
Just monetize these resources, and you'll be able to get a lot of Shenshen Crystals.
Besides.
Some of the fragments of powerful deities' divine kingdoms are also quite helpful for cultivation, and cannot be compared to ordinary Divine Crystals.
These were benefits that Shen Changqing had promised, and naturally there was no way to shirk them. He readily took the storage ring.
All in all.

This century-long guarding of the heavens' ramparts has been well worth it.
