The commotion this time around, undoubtedly had the greatest influence on the Qin Clan. After that, it would be the peak powers from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

Although, from the surface of things, they didn’t lose much from the deity-level battle, many powers had actually offended Qin Wentian. They were very clear on what this meant. As long as Qin Wentian continued to grow, and in the future right after he surpassed them, who could guarantee he wouldn’t come back to seek them for revenge?

There was now a change to the general situation in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. In addition, there would be a greater change in the future.

There was news saying that Qin Wentian had a total of twelve astral souls. In fact, he might have even concealed more of his astral souls, not revealing them. He displayed outstanding talent, defeating Qin Dangtian. In the future, he might be the same as his grandfather who returned, Qin Tiangang, and reached the peak of the deity realm. If that day arrived, those powers who had offended him, even if they weren’t exterminated, could they still be like now? Enjoying complete authority over an entire area?

Qin Wentian could depend on his talent and his advantage in the Heaven Vault. When that day arrived, all other powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would at most be able to become his vassal forces, his subordinates. This included the Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace.

Nobody knew what the intention was of the person who circulated this rumor. It was like he wanted to drive a wedge between Qin Wentian, the Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace. After all, there were currently many experts from these two hegemonic powers cultivating inside the Heaven Vault. Now, they were in an alliance. But if internal warfare occurs, wouldn’t that be interesting?

At this moment, the Heaven Vault has also become a hegemonic power in its own right. The entire Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms felt uneasy about it.

Within the Heaven Vault, among the starry space, a group of people sat together enjoying a banquet.

Among these people were Qin Wentian, the Qiankun Sect Leader, the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden, Luoshen Chuan and the other heavenly deities.

“My Qiankun Sect sent news that there are a lot of rumors circulating outside that are very disadvantageous towards you. Clearly, many felt unwillingness in their hearts to let you go during that battle in the Qin Clan. Also, the talent you displayed caused them to feel uneasy.” The Qiankun Sect Leader stared at Qin Wentian as he spoke. He sat together with Qin Wentian and there were also many emotions in his heart. If it was in the past, he definitely wouldn’t imagine that a junior like Qin Wentian would be able to sit together with him on equal grounds.

But regardless of him or the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden, both of them didn’t feel that Qin Wentian could sit as equals with them because he controls the Heaven Vault. Rather, it was because of the strength and talent Qin Wentian had displayed.

“From the time I became the controller of the Heaven Vault, wasn’t all of this already determined? Either they kill me, or if they can’t do so, they would naturally feel uneasy.” Qin Wentian smiled. “However, that battle back in the Qin Clan was truly extremely dangerous. I naturally wouldn’t dare to forget the kindness the sect leader and the mystical maiden has shown to me.”

“Why did you choose us to be your allies?” The Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden stared at Qin Wentian as she asked.

Qin Wentian glanced at the mystical maiden, staring at this exceptional beauty. His eyes had undisguised admiration, she was too beautiful. Being able to look at her at such a close distance was a kind of enjoyment that delights one’s heart. Her beauty was on the transcendent-level. She was the Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden. The number one beauty in the nine heavens.

“Beautiful things are easier to cause others to have good will.” Qin Wentian joked.

“You are really good with your words. The people in the outside world say that our powers are at the peak of the Heaven Region alongside with the Qin Clan. As for you, you are mortal enemies with them. Us joining you made it so that the Qin Clan is isolated.” The mystical maiden smiled.

“Since mystical maiden already knows the answer, why are you still asking me?” Qin Wentian smiled.

“You chose the two of us because you expected the situation to develop like this. At that time, why didn’t you invite more powers to join you? Are you worried that if there are too many peak powers in the mix, that might be a backlash to you? We might devour you instead and gain control of the Heaven Vault?” The Qiankun Sect Leader laughed as he asked, staring at Qin Wentian.

“The Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace is already so powerful. I would truly be afraid if more powers are added into the mix.” Qin Wentian smiled, honestly replying.

“Haha, Qin Wentian, you are someone very direct. Now, there are also rumors in the outside world saying that if you could ascend to the pinnacle of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms in a thousand years, where would my Qiankun Sect and the Nine Heavens Mystical Palace go? Would we be devoured by you?” The Qiankun Sect Leader stared at Qin Wentian when he asked. Clearly, such voices affected him. This was after all a problem he had to consider carefully.

“Sect leader and mystical maiden are also currently cultivating in the Heaven Vault. Are you so not confident in yourselves?” Qin Wentian replied. He then added, “Why do you feel that it wouldn’t be the two of you in the future ascending to the pinnacle instead?”

“Your growth makes people feel fear.” The Qiankun Sect Leader directly stated. “According to Lin Xiao, a few hundred years ago, you entered the sacred academy with him together, heading into the world of reincarnation. Now, a few hundred years later, you could already defeat Qin Dangtian. Soon in the future, Qin Dangtian would be easily crushed by you. In addition, given the secret treasure you possess, you can break the limits imposed on stellar cultivators in terms of the number of astral souls. The headmaster of the sacred academy also acted for your sake. Hence, our faces are not so thick to think that we would be the ones ascending to the peak. If there’s someone among us who is going to ascend to the very pinnacle, that person would undoubtedly be you.”

The mystical maiden had the same thoughts as the Qiankun Sect Leader, she also stared at Qin Wentian. Both of them were peak characters of the hegemonic powers but in terms of potential, they clearly knew that they were inferior to Qin Wentian.

“If I ascend to the pinnacle, what does sect leader and mystical maiden hope for me to do?” Qin Wentian counter-asked. Clearly, these two hegemonic characters felt some worry.

The Qiankun Sect and the Nine Heavens Mystical Palace are both hegemonic powers, they naturally didn’t wish to become someone’s vassal.

The Qiankun Sect Leader and Nine Heavens Mystical Maiden didn’t say anything. Qin Wentian asked again, “Right now in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, are there existences that surpass heavenly deities?”

“In the history of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, there are indeed some existences who surpassed everything who had appeared. But for the current immortal realms, according to the common knowledge we all have, there are only rumors about one person who stands supreme, surpassing all heavenly deities. He is in the Universe Region, the Pureland of Bliss.” The Qiankun Sect Leader replied. “The Universe Region has been incomparably stable for countless years. The other great regions in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms are split to a few hegemonic powers, sharing governance. Only the Universe Region is different. The Pureland of Bliss is the ultimate ruler there. Everyone there believes in the buddhist dao.”

Qin Wentian’s eyes flashed. The Qiankun Sect Leader said that there are rumors about one person who stands supreme. This person must be an existence equal to a godking. But clearly, this person has not shown himself for countless years. Even the Qiankun Sect Leader couldn’t be sure.

“What about the godkings of the past? The Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have existed for countless years and have several heavenly deities. For godkings who are a level higher than heavenly deities, where are all of them now?” Qin Wentian asked. Godkings were at the epitome of absolute power. They wouldn’t die of natural causes, they could say to be almost invincible characters.

“Although the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have existed for countless years, it’s unknown how long it would take to produce a godking. And once, a shocking war had occurred before in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Maybe, many of the godkings have died in that war. Also, maybe, some of them sought to pursue the legendary supreme dao, aiming for the Transcendence Realm yet they all failed and died in the end.” The Qiankun Sect Leader replied.

Qin Wentian nodded his head lightly. He knew of that battle. Once, the world-ending battle that occurred in Azure Mystic, that should be also considered as a shocking war, right? As for those who died while on the path of pursuing the ultimate supreme dao, wasn’t Godking Xi a very good example?

Wanting to surpass the limitations imposed by the nine heavens. It was definitely a thing of absolute difficulty.

Qin Wentian also felt that there might be some godkings who already managed to reach the legendary Transcendent Realm after the countless years. However, these people who managed to do so most probably wouldn’t care about anything else in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. At their level, what else do they have to fight for?

Qin Wentian thought of that mysterious white-robed young man he met before in the world of reincarnation. Was that man precisely at the so-called Transcendence Realm?

He turned his gaze back to the Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden. Qin Wentian suddenly felt like laughing, “If there’s one day where I really could reach that level, do the two of you feel that the battles for territories in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would hold any meaning to me?”

The eyes of the two of them flashed. Indeed, that was true. At that level, all of these would be meaningless to Qin Wentian.

“The other peak powers sent out those rumors because they have already offended me, or they did so because of their fear of the future. However, if such a character truly existed in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, do I even still need to conquer the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms? Just by sitting anywhere, everyone in the immortal realms would rush over due to their reverence for me. At that time, even for you two seniors, would you still wish to control me? Rather, wouldn’t it be the two of you seeking my guidance instead?” Qin Wentian calmly replied. The Qiankun Sect Leader and Mystical Maiden stared at him for a long time, they were both speechless.

If such a day truly arrived and Qin Wentian stood at the absolute pinnacle, reaching the Transcendence Realm, even just by sitting there the people of the world would undoubtedly rush over to bow in worship.
