Translator: Transn Editor: Transn
No matter what kind of world it was, there was always a pillar of support. This world did not achieve small chiliocosm, which meant it had no Origin. The World Origin was the source of support for the small chiliocosm. Since there was no small chiliocosm in this small world, then there must be some other treasures which supported this world. Or else, this world would have been destroyed ages ago.
Minghe looked around and saw the center of the small world there was a giant building, or rather a giant complex floated there. Minghe approached its giant gate. The board on the gate said, “Southern Gate”.
Minghe was not surprised at the words. It was exactly like the Heavenly Court in Untainted Land, 36 Gates of Heaven lay within, and buildings were shrouded in the ethereal air. Golden lights flashed, and strips of air formed purple haze. The crimson gauze clothing glittered, the jade pins, hibiscus crowns, jeweled shoes, purple ribbons and gold medals all shone glamorously.
Before stepping in, Minghe had felt the vital force of the Heavenly Court. It slightly different from that of Untainted Land’s Heavenly Court. Untainted Land’s Heavenly Court was created by the Way of Heaven, shrouded in tactical formations. After all, it was an incarnation of the Will of Heaven. However, the court in front of Minghe was apparently an incarnation of a Highest Grade primordial supreme treasure. Moreover, this treasure has begun to transform into a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos.
Though the vital force was familiar, it raised more questions in Minghe. “Untainted Land is intact, but why did Heavenly Court appear here?” Since seals and forbidden formations in mountains were old and ancient, this was not the Untainted Land’s Heavenly Court. Other than the incarnation, both treasures were exceedingly alike.
But just looking at the appearance, it was too similar to each other which even the vital force emitted familiarity. Minghe entered the Gates filled with questions. ” Instead of straightening the confusion outside, why not just go in and find out the truth ?” Despite the fact that this Heavenly Court was a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos before evolving into Primordial Supreme Treasure, it did not have the capability to trap him inside.
Inside the gates was another new world. Certain building structures were identical to the Court in Untainted Land but the only difference was there were Spiritual Medicines growing there. These medicines only grew in the Battlefield of God and Demon. The herbal fragrance floating through the air was utmost tempting. Just by the scent, Minghe could feel that he was growing stronger.
This was really surprising. This court had such a fertile land where so many Spiritual Medicines grew. Judging from the area of crops, someone must have carefully cultivated it, but whom did this Heavenly Court belong to? Minghe entered the gates for quite a while yet he had not felt any signs of life, unless the owner had passed on.
Minghe continued on without seeing a soul. In such a large palace, without the plants, it would be lifeless. When he finally walked to the 36th Gates of Heaven, he saw the standing Divine Wind Palace. Though it was splendid everywhere, there was something weird about this place.
Minghe stepped inside The Divine Wind Palace, only to see a mirror above the throne. He recognized it was a Haotian Mirror, which was granted to Haotian by Hongjun years ago. This mirror was again the same with that in Untainted Land. But, the difference being it was a Highest Grade primordial supreme treasure. Unfortunately, the edge had been chipped.
The marks indicated someone was here and tried attacking it. However, Minghe was more interested in the fact that there was a Heavenly Court in the Untainted Land. The Haotian Mirror was still in the possession of the Haotian he knows. So why was there another Heavenly Court and Haotian Mirror here?
Moreover, in Minghe’s perceptions, there also was a Garden of Peaches of Immortality, where 3,600 Peento Trees had been cultivated. The same things and the same vital force should emerge in two different places was weird! Besides, Minghe had checked that he wasn’t in some mirage world.
Anyone would be confused in a weird situation like this. He walked toward the Haotian Mirror to scrutinize it closely. But, after stepping a few steps forward, the mirror shone brightly. Then, the light died down, a vague shadow was seated on the throne.
The shadow turned out to be a handsome ghost with an air of royalty; he was clad in an imperial robe. The air of royalty showed his cultivation of imperial Tao, and what was weirder was that he actually looked like Haotian.
Yet, Haotian couldn’t compete with him in cultivation Realm. Though he was a ghost, his whole body vital force was formidable. Thus, he must have been at least at Peak of Realm of The Origin, much stronger than the real Haotian. It seemed that Minghe’s breaking in had activated the Haotian Mirror, summoning the ghost for some unknown reason.
When the ghost finally stabilized himself, he opened his eyes, looking at Minghe. He first got slightly surprised, and then roared out. “Haha, God helps those who help themselves. Finally, my long awaited spiritual inheritor comes, and you’re from Untainted Land.”
The short sentence gave out a lot of information. Still, it was strange. Judging from his words, the ghost also came from Untainted Land. But, masters in the Land were numbered; Minghe hadn’t seen anyone like this before. Not to say, one who ended up becoming a ghost.
Although he had stabilized, he was still feeble and didn’t seem to be able to last long. He continued to talk about some inheritor. Ignoring the fact whether the ghost was speaking the truth or not, Minghe wanted to know what the ghost knew about the Battlefield of God and Demon.
As for spiritual inheritance, he didn’t care about that. He had his own Tao. Besides, the ghost didn’t succeed in its own Tao and even turned into something like this. And then, he laughed so hard that his spirit trembled a little. Minghe couldn’t help asking, “May I have your name? I’m Ancestor Minghe, at your service.”
Then, he stopped and said in surprise, “Ancestor Minghe? Are you Ancestor Minghe in the Ninth Period Untainted Land? Well, that’s surprising. The Minghe I know couldn’t compete with you. Oh, I’m the owner of Heavenly Court in the Eighth Period Untainted Land, Emperor Haotian.”
“The Ninth Period? The Eighth Period? The Minghe? Emperor Haotian? He called himself Haotian and mentioned another one.” Minghe couldn’t help wondering about The Chaos and Untainted Land’s secrets. Now, Minghe knew he was onto a big secret.
Haotian continued, “I know Fellow Taoist is in doubt as I was. Don’t worry, I’ll explain to you. Please be seated.” Then, he waved his hand; a platform rose up in The Divine Wind Palace to the height of the throne.
Minghe seated himself on the platform. He stared at Haotian in expectation. Beforehand, Minghe had already known that this Haotian came from the Eighth Period, while he was in the Ninth Period. The gap between two Periods appealed to him.
Haotian continued, “Fellow Taoist comes from the Ninth Period, while I’m from the Eighth Period. After the Eighth Period’s destruction, Great Divinity Pangu rebuilt another Untainted Land, where you come from. Naturally, there were other Lands from the first to the seventh Periods.”
“You must know that the Great Divinity Pangu exterminated 3,000 Mazingers, created Heaven and Earth, and his body nourished everything. Actually, he never really died; his heart is enshrined and worshipped in the Hall of Pangu. After each Untainted Land’s destruction, he’s reborn to develop the next Land. For years and years, he’s been doing so.”
Minghe was shocked to hear that. “Pangu isn’t dead?” It was a shocking revelation. When Wu Tribe resurrected 10 Ancestors of sorcery in Blood Sea, Minghe saw Great Divinity Pangu’s heart in the Hall of Pangu, even his Spiritual Thoughts had been suppressed by the heart. However, he never expected Pangu to still be alive. In that case, the power of the heart would become stronger.
Haotian saw Minghe’s shock in his eyes. When he first learned the secret, Haotian was also shocked. Now it was his turn to watch someone else do the same. Then, he continued, “Great Divinity Pangu has great cultivation. He builds Untainted Lands, how will he die so easily? He has cultivation, Jade Butterfly of Fate, and so many supreme treasures; he doesn’t need to use his body to nourish everything anymore to help Untainted Land anymore.”
Everyone acknowledged the power of the Way of Heaven in Untainted Land and knew how Great Divinity Pangu built Untainted Land even created the Way of Heaven. With the strength of the Way of Heaven, one could simply imagine the power of Pangu! It was hard to imagine. Moreover, no one knew why Great Divinity Pangu rebuilt Untainted Lands again and again, and what he was up to.
