Daily Divination From Market Rogue Cultivator To Immortal Venerable - Chapter 351

Chapter 351 The Change in the Secret Realm, All Submit (Seeking Subscriptions)

“The Great Qi already has four Nascent Soul cultivators. If we add an old emperor in the mid-Nascent Soul stage, its overall strength will expand to an unimaginable level,”

Li Chang’an pondered.

The Wang family currently only has one early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator left, which is no match for the Great Qi at its peak.

Once the Wang family is destroyed, the balance of power among the four Nascent Soul cultivators will be completely broken, and the cultivation world of Zhao Kingdom will be even more turbulent.

“Before I form my own Nascent Soul, I will try to maintain the current balance as long as possible,”

Li Chang’an decided, throwing the stone bead into a corner of his storage bag.

Not long after,

he finished the interrogation.

Prince Huai had basically lost his value.

But Li Chang’an did not kill him immediately, but instead manipulated him to return to the Great Qi.

Upon returning to the Great Qi, Prince Huai immediately received a huge amount of faith power, and his aura rose steadily.

Li Chang’an noticed that

Prince Huai’s golden core had not changed.

However, outside his golden core, a seated, illusory Nascent Soul appeared.

“It’s not about shattering the core to form a nascent soul, but directly gaining an extra nascent soul. It definitely won’t affect the subsequent nascent soul formation.”

Li Chang’an was completely relieved.

He focused on controlling Prince Huai and entering the capital of the Great Qi Dynasty.

“The true body of the Great Qi Emperor, as well as Jiang Xuanyuan, are besieging the Wang family’s ancestral lands and will not return to the capital for the time being. The other pseudo-nascent soul True Monarch is stationed at the border.”

In other words ,

there is currently only Prince Huai, a Nascent Soul True Monarch, in the capital of the Great Qi Dynasty!

He went straight to the Great Qi Library and copied all the cultivation techniques, spells, cultivation insights, and various classics in the library.

Afterward, he went to the Great Qi Treasury.

Prince Huai had not lied to him.   Even

for a Nascent Soul True Monarch like Prince Huai, the treasures he saw in the Treasury were mostly of low grade.

There were very few fourth-grade treasures, and there were no Nascent Soul opportunities at all.   Li Chang’an had expected this and was not disappointed.   He only exchanged some relatively rare low-grade treasures without attracting anyone’s attention.   After that,   he went to Prince Huai’s residence and opened the Prince Huai’s Treasury.   ”As expected of the treasure trove of a False Nascent Soul True Monarch. Although the Nascent Soul opportunities were all handed over to the Great Qi royal family, there are still plenty of other treasures.”   Li Chang’an’s eyes lit up, his vision filled with a dazzling array of treasures.   Various kinds of spirit wood, crystals, pills, demon beast blood essence, and more—everything imaginable was there, a dazzling array.   Without any hesitation, he waved his hand.   ”Collect!”   More than a dozen storage bags immediately flew out, their mouths opening like gluttonous beasts, frantically absorbing the treasures in the treasury.   In no time, the entire treasury was emptied.   The Prince of Huai’s heart bled.   Alas.   He was controlled by Li Chang’an, powerless to stop it.   After emptying the treasury, he was then forced to go to the Prince of Huai’s library, where all the books were copied.   Having done all this,   Li Chang’an controlled him to leave Great Qi and return to the Southern Region.   ”It went smoothly enough; the Great Qi emperor’s puppet body didn’t detect anything amiss.”   He smiled, letting out a sigh of relief.   At the border between the Southern and Central Regions,   Li Chang’an took all the treasures from Prince Huai’s possession.   Then, he manipulated Prince Huai into a secret realm in the Central Region, where he killed Prince Huai, Qi Jingyun, and the ten Golden Core cultivators.   He collected their souls and swiftly departed, returning to Changqing Mountain.   As for the treasures bearing the mark of the Great Qi Emperor in Prince Huai’s storage bag, he discarded them all in that secret realm.   …   Meanwhile,   in the Great Qi capital, within Prince Huai’s residence,   the soul lamps of Prince Huai and Qi Jingyun went out simultaneously.   ”Not good!”   The prince’s disciples guarding the soul lamps paled and immediately ran to inform the others.   Soon,   the news reached the Great Qi Imperial Palace.   ”Prince Huai has perished?”   Upon seeing this news, Emperor Qi Jiuyang of Great Qi felt a chill run down his spine.   He immediately sensed the treasures bearing his mark, followed the senses into the secret realm, and soon arrived at the place where Prince Huai and the others had fallen.   ”Why did Prince Huai die here?”   Qi Jiuyang frowned, deep in thought.   Perhaps it was because Prince Huai had offended a powerful enemy, or perhaps someone was secretly targeting the Great Qi.   …   Half a month later.   Li Chang’an heard that the Great Qi had temporarily suspended its attack.   Originally, the Great Qi had gained a significant advantage in the immortal war against the Wang family, but suddenly it had stalled, seemingly on guard against something.   ”It seems that Prince Huai’s death has given the Wang family a chance to catch their breath.”   Li Chang’an smiled; this was exactly the result he wanted.   In retrospect,   he had done the Wang family a great favor.   In the past half month, he had finished taking stock of all his gains and adapted to the Faith Method.   ”It’s time to plan for the Fire Cloud Secret Realm.”   Li Chang’an turned his gaze to the Fire Cloud Secret Realm.   In recent years,   he had not caused much of a stir in the Fire Cloud Secret Realm.   However, more than ten Golden Core cultivators were willing to follow him.   Some of them he had subdued casually, and others were persuaded by Gao Tianlan.   As the first Golden Core cultivator in the secret realm to follow Li Chang’an, Gao Tianlan was particularly loyal to him, betting almost everything he had on Li Chang’an.   Today.   He was now trying to persuade a Golden Core cultivator.   This man, whose Daoist name was “Danyang,” was a third-tier alchemist, revered as the Danyang Divine Emperor by the lower-level cultivators of the secret realm.   The two sat in a secluded courtyard of the Danyang Divine Emperor’s mansion, talking for a long time.

“Danyang, we’ve known each other for years, when have I ever lied to you?”

Gao Tianlan’s tone was sincere, earnestly inviting the Danyang Divine Emperor to follow Li Chang’an with him.

He continued, “The techniques, treasures, and knowledge possessed by the Changqing Divine Lord far surpass those of us. He is extremely generous and willing to share the cultivation methods of the Fourth Realm with us.”

The Danyang Divine Emperor asked suspiciously, “Tianlan, is there truly a Fourth Realm?”

“Of course!”

Gao Tianlan nodded, pointing a finger at the Danyang Divine Emperor’s brow.

He passed on the Nascent Soul scroll of the Water Element Technique that Li Chang’an had given him to the Danyang Divine Emperor.

The Danyang Divine Emperor closed his eyes slightly, sitting motionless, carefully comprehending.

After a long while,

he opened his eyes, which were now red.

“The Fourth Realm does indeed exist, and it’s a realm that has always existed, requiring no new path from us… Shattering the Core to form the Nascent Soul… Father, the path you predicted back then was correct…”

The Danyang Divine Emperor’s tiger-like eyes were filled with tears, his body trembling slightly as he murmured softly.

His father was a prodigy of the Fire Cloud Secret Realm, possessing extraordinary talent and comprehension. He reached the peak of the Golden Core stage before the age of 150, and once said that the path of cultivation had more than three realms.

Later, his father invited many friends to witness him enter the fourth realm, forging a new path for all beings.

At that time, the Danyang Divine Emperor was still young.

He only remembered

that rolling thunderbolts fell from the sky, striking his father.

Although his father was battered and bruised, he still smiled, telling him not to worry, assuring him he would recover soon.

But at that moment,

a beam of fire suddenly flew out from the Fire Cloud Divine Palace, heavily striking his father.

His father was instantly severely injured and could not withstand the next bolt of lightning, being reduced to ashes.

“If my father were still alive, he would be very happy to know that his prediction was correct,”

the Danyang Divine Emperor thought sadly, sighing deeply.

Gao Tianlan said in a deep voice, “Danyang, if it weren’t for that despicable Fire Cloud God Lord’s sneak attack back then, perhaps your uncle could have truly entered the fourth realm. I know you harbor resentment, but you had to submit to the Fire Cloud God Lord to protect your family. Now… you have a better choice.”

“Alright, Tianlan, I will submit to that Evergreen God Lord. I just hope you’re not lying to me!”

“Don’t worry, every word I say is true, absolutely no falsehood!”

Gao Tianlan smiled and immediately took out a spirit contract.

But just then,

a cold laugh suddenly rang out not far away.

“Heh, Gao Tianlan, Mu Danyang, I didn’t expect you two to be so bold as to dare disrespect the God Lord!”

As soon as the words fell, two powerful figures appeared.

The two looked almost identical, except one had a full head of white hair and the other had a full head of black hair, and both had reached the peak of the Golden Core stage.

“The Black and White God Emperors!”

Gao Tianlan and Mu Danyang’s expressions changed drastically.

These two were brothers, sharing the title “Black and White God Emperors,” possessing strength far exceeding that of ordinary God Emperors, and were extremely loyal to the Fire Cloud God Lord.

“Danyang, come with me!”

Gao Tianlan shouted, summoning the peak third-tier puppet borrowed from Li Chang’an.

He multitasked, controlling the puppet to resist the Black and White God Emperors while leading Mu Danyang to escape.

The Black and White God Emperors’ eyes narrowed, but they didn’t pursue them, their gazes fixed on the puppet.

“A puppet with peak God Emperor strength.”

“The person behind Gao Tianlan does have some tricks up his sleeve, but all tricks are utterly insignificant before the Great God Lord!”

The two exchanged a glance, joining forces to fight the puppet, attempting to subdue it.

A moment later.

The puppet escaped at the cost of a few parts self-destructing.

The auras of Gao Tianlan and Mu Danyang had long since vanished without a trace.

Soon, figures arrived from all directions, all God Emperors who had submitted to the Fire Cloud God Lord, quickly gathering more than thirty people.

One of them asked, “Fellow Daoists Hei Bai, it seems that Gao Tianlan and his companion are not the only ones involved in this rebellion. Should we inform the God Lord?”

“No, let’s not tell the God Lord for now. The cultivation world has seen numerous rebellions; we can’t expect the God Lord to intervene every time. As for Gao Tianlan and the others… I have my own ways to find them.”

Both the Black and White God Emperors were full of confidence, looking towards the south of the Fire Cloud Secret Realm.

…

Meanwhile.

In the south, in a mountain forest.

Gao Tianlan, Mu Danyang, and more than ten others gathered there.

These dozen or so were all renowned figures, the weakest possessing at least the early Golden Core stage.

“Boundless God Emperor, Fierce Fist God Emperor, Three Yin God Emperor…”

Mu Danyang looked at the group, a look of surprise on his face.

“I didn’t expect you all to follow that Evergreen God Lord.”

“Yes, Brother Danyang, we also want to witness the true path of cultivation.”

The Boundless God Emperor and the others responded one after another.

The Fire Cloud Secret Realm wasn’t large, with only a little over a hundred Golden Core cultivators in total.

They had already met each other, so there was no need for further pleasantries.

The Boundless God Emperor asked, “Fellow Daoist Tianlan, the Black and White God Emperors already know about this matter, and I’m afraid they will soon inform the Fire Cloud God Lord. Have you contacted the Evergreen God Lord?”

Upon hearing this, the other dozen or so people all looked at Gao Tianlan.

Most of them were somewhat uneasy.

The Fire Cloud Temple had ruled this world for countless millennia, leaving an invincible impression on the cultivators of this world.

If it weren’t for embarking on a longer path of cultivation, they would never have betrayed it.

Now,

they only hoped

that the Evergreen God Lord could defeat the Fire Cloud God Lord and become the new master of this world.

“Don’t worry, everyone, I have informed the Evergreen God Lord of this matter, and I believe the God Lord will arrive soon.”

“That’s good.”

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

But just then,

the Black and White God Emperors’ cold voice rang out again.

“Heh, you should all be intelligent people, why have you made a mistake at this moment, truly believing that the so-called Evergreen God Lord is a match for the Fire Cloud God Lord?”

Hearing this voice, everyone’s expression changed drastically.

Before they could even escape this place…

More than thirty auras of powerful Divine Emperors appeared all around them, surrounding them completely.

“Impossible! I clearly erased all auras, how could you catch up so quickly?”

Gao Tianlan asked incredulously, his face grim. Before he

could finish speaking,

the Three Yin Divine Emperor beside him suddenly attacked.

“Boom!”

This spell was extremely vicious, striking directly at Gao Tianlan’s dantian.

He couldn’t react in time, but fortunately, the protective treasure bestowed upon him by Li Chang’an activated on its own, barely blocking the attack.

In the blink of an eye,

Gao Tianlan had just escaped death.

Cold sweat poured down his back as he roared, “Three Yin Divine Emperor, how dare you betray the Evergreen Divine Lord!”

“Hehe, it’s not a betrayal. I wholeheartedly submit to the Fire Cloud Divine Lord. The reason I agreed to your request before was only because of Fellow Daoist Black and White’s orders.”

The Three Yin Divine Emperor chuckled, instantly moving away from the group and retreating to the side of the Black and White Divine Emperor.

His meaning was clear.

From beginning to end, he was merely an undercover agent. His

apparent agreement was only to capture Gao Tianlan and the others in one fell swoop.

“Please don’t blame me, everyone.”

As he spoke, the Three Yin God Emperor’s face turned pale, he spat out several mouthfuls of blood, and his aura plummeted.

This was caused by the backlash of the spiritual contract.

He had signed a spiritual contract to submit to Li Chang’an, but now he had betrayed him, losing most of his life in the backlash.

“Fellow Daoists Black and White, I have suffered a great loss this time. My path to cultivation is severed, and I will have no chance of further progress in this life. I may even develop inner demons. Do not forget your promise.” “

Fellow Daoists Three Yin, rest assured, your family and descendants will henceforth be directly under the Fire Cloud Divine Palace. All resources will be allocated to your family first.”

The Black and White God Emperors spoke in unison, making a promise to the Three Yin God Emperor.

Then, they looked at Gao Tianlan and the others.

“Everyone, surrender now and come with me to confess your sins before the God Lord. You should be able to save your lives.”

“I am a God Emperor, how can I surrender without a fight?”

Gao Tianlan sneered, summoning his magic weapon, his body surging with magical power.

Mu Danyang and the Limitless God Emperor and the others also prepared to fight.

They exchanged a glance, already resigned to their fate.

Their opponents numbered over thirty God Emperors, including peak experts like the Black and White God Emperors, while they numbered only a dozen or so, the strongest being a mid-stage God Emperor.

Defeat was inevitable!

Gao Tianlan glanced towards the Tianlan Divine Realm and sighed softly.

“Alas, the God Lord probably won’t make it in time.”

“Heh, does that Changqing God Lord really dare to come? Even if he does, so what? I’m afraid he can’t even defeat Fellow Daoist Black and White.”

The Three Yin God Emperor wiped the blood from his mouth, sneering repeatedly.

Just then,

an unfamiliar figure suddenly appeared beside Gao Tianlan.

Sensing his aura, Gao Tianlan was overjoyed and immediately knelt on one knee.

“Greetings, God Lord!”

“Rise.”

Li Chang’an released a burst of magic power, lifting him up.

The others also reacted.

Several of them were personally subdued by Li Chang’an, and like Gao Tianlan, they knelt on one knee.

“Greetings, Eternal Green God Lord!”

Mu Danyang and the others merely bowed, a hint of doubt in their eyes as they subtly sized up Li Chang’an.

Li Chang’an was far too young.

Both his appearance and aura exuded youthfulness, making him seem like a mere youth not yet a hundred years old.

He was nothing like the dignified and weathered Eternal Green God Lord they had imagined.

At the same time,

the Black and White God Emperor and the Three Yin God Emperor were also observing Li Chang’an.

Seeing how young he was and how weak his aura wasn’t, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

“So he’s just a junior.”

The Three Yin God Emperor couldn’t help but laugh.

“Boy, you may have had some fortuitous encounters, but with your strength, you’re far from being a match for the Fire Cloud God Lord. If I were you, I would go to the temple to plead guilty and beg the God Lord for leniency.”

Hearing this ,

the Boundless God Emperor, the Fierce Fist God Emperor, and the others felt a heaviness in their hearts.

They couldn’t help but wonder if they had followed the wrong person.

But Gao Tianlan and the others still had unwavering faith in Li Chang’an.

“Everyone need not worry, the God Lord can crush everything through divine intervention!”

“Heh, Gao Tianlan, you’re still so stubborn even now. Let me personally shatter your illusions.”

The Black and White God Emperors sneered, simultaneously unleashing their peak Golden Core power.

In this Fire Cloud Secret Realm ,

the two of them, working together, were practically invincible below the God Lord level!

“Slash!”

The two shouted coldly, unleashing a world-shaking spell.

The Boundless God Emperor, the Fierce Fist God Emperor, and the others all looked grave, for they simply couldn’t withstand this attack.

What would Li Chang’an do? Under

the watchful eyes of everyone, he casually waved his hand.

“Disperse!”

The next moment,

to everyone’s astonishment

, the astonishing spell was easily dispersed by him.

He himself was unharmed, calm and collected, not even a hem of his clothes was damaged.

Immediately afterward, he swayed and instantly unleashed two punches.

Before anyone could react,

both the Black and White God Emperors coughed up blood, collapsed to the ground, severely injured and unable to rise again.

In that instant,

the entire mountain forest fell into a deathly silence.

Both sides were dumbfounded, as if petrified, staring blankly at this scene.

In this world where the Golden Core stage was the limit of cultivation, they had never seen such powerful strength.

Although the Fire Cloud God Lord was strong, he could not defeat two peak God Emperors in one move.

Once, a peak God Emperor challenged the Fire Cloud God Lord and withstood five moves from him!

“The God Lord’s strength is much stronger than I imagined.”

After the extreme shock, Gao Tianlan was left with only excitement and fervor.

He knew very well that the decision he made back then was correct!

The others felt the same way.

As for Mu Danyang and the Wuji God Emperor, they all abandoned the dignity they had accumulated over the years and knelt on one knee before Li Chang’an, expressing their complete submission.

The thirty-odd God Emperors around them were terrified and knelt down in fear, none attempting to flee.

Faced with absolute power, escape was impossible.

“Changqing God Lord, I submit!”

one of them shouted, then lowered his head, almost prostrating himself on the ground.

After him, the others also spoke.

“God Lord, I submit.”

“Me too!”

“…”

Finally, only one person remained standing.

The Three Yin God Emperor.

His face was deathly pale, cold sweat pouring down his face, forcing out a forced, more painfully obsequious smile.

“God Lord, I…can I submit one more time?”
