Chapter 491: 9,900,000 Years Ago, Primordial Era
With an uneasy heart, Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the others followed the Yellow-scarved Strongman into the palace and saw Cui Heng drinking tea.
At this moment, they understood that the person in front of them was definitely not the former Lord of the Heavenly Court.
That was because even the aura on the Lord of the Heavenly Court was far from being so vast. It was as if it contained everything.
What kind of cultivation realm could be so powerful?
Could it be that there was really a realm that surpassed the 12 Heaven Gate realms?
Facing such an unfathomable expert, these Sect Masters of the Immortal Dao Sects who were usually high and mighty were all deeply shocked. They only stood there with stagnant gazes and even forgot to bow.
After a while, the Heaven Gate realm experts, led by Lian Heng and Qin Tang, came back to their senses and hurriedly bowed.
“Eternal Academy’s Lian Heng greets Senior.”
“Immortal Valley’s Qin Tang greets Senior.”
“Wang Qi of Origin Island greets Senior.”
….
….
At the same time that they bowed, the other dozen or so people at the Seventh Heaven Gate realm realized what was going on and followed suit.
Cui Heng did not care much about this. He put down the teacup in his hand and nodded slightly. He smiled and said, “There’s no need to be so polite. You’re all experts who have cultivated for a long time. You should have thought of your goal for coming to look for me this time. Why don’t you just say it?”
He had never liked to beat around the bush. It was better to be straightforward.
Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the others looked at each other and nodded.
In the end, Lian Heng took a step forward and said respectfully, “Senior, it’s like this. The intensity of this Scarlet Calamity is unprecedentedly powerful. I’m afraid the Outer World is preparing to launch a large-scale invasion and intends to start an all-out attack on the Heaven Realm.
Facing such a situation, we are powerless to stop it. Therefore, we want to undo the seal of the Lord of the Heavenly Court and use the power of the Lord of the Heavenly Court to resist the invasion of the Outer World.
However, our cultivation realms are ultimately limited. Although the restrictions that sealed the Lord of the Heavenly Court have weakened over a long period of time, it will probably take hundreds of thousands of years for our power to undo them…
Senior’s divine power is incomparably deep. Can Senior help us undo the seal of the Lord of the Heavenly Court so that we can resist the invasion of the Outer World? If Senior is willing to personally deal with the Outer World, we will be even more grateful.”
Since they had already confirmed that Cui Heng was not the Lord of the Heavenly Court, their main goal this time was to ask Cui Heng to help them undo the seal on the Lord of the Heavenly Court.
Of course, if they could persuade Cui Heng to participate in the battle against the Outer World invasion, it would naturally be the best thing.
“Alright.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and smiled. “I understand your intention to resist the Outer World invasion. However, I have a question. Does helping you resist the Outer World invasion mean anything to me?”
This question immediately stunned Lian Heng and the others.
What were the benefits of resisting the Outer World?
As a member of the Heaven Realm, wasn’t it the rightful thing to resist the Outer World?
Moreover, once the Outer World invaded on a large scale, the characteristics of the Heaven Gate here would be occupied by the Outer World.
At that time, the local cultivators here would no longer have the chance to improve. They would completely lose the chance to turn the tables and could only be bullied forever.
Was this reason not enough to resist the Outer World?
Why was there a point in asking?
The Sect Masters of the Immortal Dao Sects were stunned.
The Yellow-scarved Strongman suddenly said, “Sect Masters, when Immortal Venerable started cultivating, there was no Heaven Realm.”
As soon as these words were spoken, Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the others immediately felt as if they had been struck by lightning. Their faces revealed disbelief as they looked at Cui Heng in extreme shock.
Everyone felt as if their minds were buzzing, as if billions of lightning bolts had exploded at the same time.
When he was cultivating, there was no Heaven Realm!
When he was cultivating, there was no Heaven Realm!
How ancient and powerful was this existence?
Could this peerless expert be from the same era as the legendary founder of the Heaven Realm?
This was too shocking.
It was simply unbelievable!
However, from the vastness of the power contained in the jade, this did not seem to be impossible.
To such a supreme being, helping the Heaven Realm resist the invasion of the Outer World did not seem to be very necessary.
Moreover, what could they bring out to move such an existence?
Treasures?
Cultivation techniques?
Clearly, neither was likely.
What should they do now?!
Cui Heng stared at them and saw their shocked and conflicted expressions. He smiled and said, “Actually, if you want me to help, you just have to do one thing.”
Of course, he would not refuse to resist the invasion of the Outer World.
Not to mention that his disciples were in this Star Field, his current cultivation was also closely related to this Star Field. The rules of order he established were here, and the Great Dao laws he wanted to communicate with were also here.
Moreover, after successfully resisting the invasion of the Outer World, he could deepen his communication with the Great Dao laws of the Heaven Realm and greatly increase the speed of his cultivation. He could break through to the Mid-stage Soul Formation realm in a shorter period of time.
To Cui Heng, he had a very good reason to resist the invasion of the Outer World.
The reason why he said this to Lian Heng and the others was to let them know to cherish his help.
Help that was too easy to obtain was often not cherished.
This was human nature.
Only by letting them cherish his help would they be willing to answer Cui Heng’s questions.
They still had to thank Cui Heng profusely.
As expected, as soon as Cui Heng said this, Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the others were overjoyed. They hurriedly nodded and said, “Senior, please speak! We will definitely do our best. We only hope that Senior can help us resist the Outer World.”
“I haven’t been in this world for a long time, so I don’t know much about the current situation of this Star Field.” Cui Heng nodded slightly and said, “Tell me about the current situation here first.
How many other Star Fields are there in this region? Also, tell me about the six Heaven Gates. If you can satisfy me, I’ll naturally help you.”
“Thank you, Senior!” Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the others knelt on the ground, their hearts filled with gratitude for Cui Heng.
In their opinion, Cui Heng’s request was not a request at all. He actually gave them an easy way out so that they would feel more at peace after asking him for help. And that was because he did not want them to feel too burdened.
After all, the information Cui Heng asked for was not very valuable to most Immortal orthodoxies. Not many people would look at it in the Scripture Depository for millions of years.
Now, using this information to exchange for the help of such a supreme being to resist the invasion of the Outer World was simply too worth it.
An ancient being who started cultivating before the formation of the Heaven Realm could be said to be a living fossil. He definitely knew countless ancient secrets.
Could these “new” matters interest such an existence?
Clearly not.
What use did these “new” things have for an ancient being like this?
Obviously none.
This meant that the ancient supreme being had actually directly promised to help them.
How benevolent and selfless was this?
The entire Heaven Realm was blessed to have this supreme being.
For a moment, Lian Heng, Qin Tang, and the Masters of the more than ten other Immortal orthodoxies were extremely excited. They were filled with admiration and gratitude for Cui Heng.
Lian Heng took the initiative to step forward and ask, “Senior, where do you want to start understanding? The inheritance of my Eternal Academy is extremely ancient. It can be traced back to the beginning of the Heaven Realm. Our Ancestral Master even sat beside the God of Creation and listened to his teachings.
Although our academy’s inheritance was severely affected by the Scarlet Calamity 500,000 years ago, we still retained many secret books that can provide you with very detailed information.”
The other Sect Masters of the Immortal Dao Sects had no objections to him taking the initiative to step forward.
After all, the Eternal Academy was indeed the oldest and had the deepest foundation among them. It was most suitable for them to stand up and answer Cui Heng’s question.
“It’s really not easy for such an ancient sect to survive until now.” Cui Heng nodded and praised before asking, “How many years has it been since the Heaven Realm was established?”
“Senior, it should have been more than 9.9 million years,” Lian Heng said respectfully. “According to the records of our academy, 9.9 million years ago, a supreme god descended from the sea of stars.
He created the world here, demarcated the Heavens, divided the myriad worlds, sorted out the endless starry sky, and created the Central World that ruled the myriad worlds.
After that, he built the Door of Heaven and brought the fated living beings of the myriad worlds to the Heaven Realm. He also established the Boundless Dao and taught the Great Dao and myriad wonderful techniques. He created the cultivation method of the 21 realms of the Immortal and Mortal worlds and pointed out the method to break through the 12 Heaven Gates.
Originally, the cultivation methods in this place were strange and extremely complicated. There were often battles between cultivators because of disputes over the advantages and disadvantages of each path.
Ever since then, the cultivation methods of the myriad worlds and endless starry skies gradually became unified. As time passed, the 21 realms of the Immortal and Mortal realms and the 12 Heaven Gate realms were used as the division of cultivation realms, avoiding many unnecessary battles.
The Eternal Academy was also established at that time. Our Ancestral Master called that era the ‘Primordial Era’. It was also the most peaceful era in this sea of stars in the past 9.9 million years.
According to the books, although the six Star Fields in that era also had boundaries, they were all connected and there were normal Star Field paths.
Moreover, there were enough Heaven Gate characteristics in that era, and there was no upper limit to the number of times one could cross the Heaven Ladder. There were many choices to choose from the Heaven Gate, and there was no battle for the Great Dao between different Star Fields.
It’s precisely because of this that there were endless experts in that era. There were many experts who crossed the Third Heavenly Ladder. The entire Star Sea was a scene of vitality and all living beings were competing.”
At this point, Lian Heng could not help but reveal an incomparably envious expression and sigh. “That was really an incomparably glorious and dazzling era. Unfortunately, to us in this era, it’s only a legend.
Ever since the Creation God left and the Boundless Dao Realm closed, everything has changed. It’s impossible to return to the past…”
