Chapter 3582 The Current State of the Heavens

This aura!

Shen Changqing was all too familiar with it.

It was the aura of evil spirits.

Seeing this,

he immediately asked, “Has something happened in the Heavens Universe?” As

soon as he said this,

the smile on the face of the Overlord God-King vanished, and his expression became serious.

“The Sect Master is right. Hundreds of years ago, an unknown entity tore apart the barriers between the heavens, and then strange creatures appeared.

These strange creatures were numerous and fearless. As soon as they appeared, they unleashed a great calamity upon the heavens.

As a result, many races perished at the hands of these strange creatures!”

“Later, the Heavenly Emperor of the Eternal Immortal Court joined forces with 356 Immortal Kings from all the heavens to attack the source of the strange creatures, attempting to suppress the turmoil, but they suffered a crushing defeat.

In that battle, the heavens suffered heavy losses.

It was also because of that battle that the heavens were severely weakened, and they were powerless to resist the attack of the strange army.

If it weren’t for the support from the Netherworld and the ancient holy land, the heavens would probably have completely disintegrated!”

“Unfortunately, the number of these strange creatures is too great. Even with the support of the Netherworld, it’s a drop in the ocean and insufficient to truly quell the unrest.

Ultimately, all parties decided to fully mobilize one person to break through to the Ancient Immortal Realm and ascend to the Upper Realm to seek aid—”

The Overlord God-King recounted everything in one breath.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing finally understood how much had happened in the myriad universes over the years.

At the same time,

he also understood why the Overlord God-King would ascend at this time.

It turned out that the other party’s purpose in risking the Ancient Immortal Tribulation to ascend was to seek aid.

Shen Changqing nodded: “I already know your purpose in coming here. I will resolve the problems of the myriad universes!”

“Those strange creatures are fearless and numerous. I wonder if the Sect Master is aware of this?”

Hearing Shen Changqing’s promise, the Overlord God-King breathed a sigh of relief, and then couldn’t help but ask.

Shen Changqing said, “The strange creatures you spoke of are called ‘Spirit Beasts’.”

“Spirit Beasts?”

“Those corrupted by the aura of Great Spirits become Spirit Beasts. These Spirit Beasts are born to kill and are extremely aggressive.

Currently, the Nine Heavens Immortal Realm is also experiencing turmoil caused by Spirit Calamity, countless Immortal Domains in Shenfeng Prefecture have fallen, and countless powerful figures have perished.

If I’m not mistaken, the appearance of Spirit Beasts in the myriad universes is likely related to this calamity in Shenfeng Prefecture!”

Shen Changqing said.

This kind of thing only requires a little thought to understand the connection.

Before this,

Spirit Beasts had never appeared in the myriad universes.

And to tear apart the barriers of the myriad universes, one would need at least a Spirit Beast at the Half-Saint level.

Without Half-Saint level power, how could one qualify to break through the barriers of the myriad universes?

However,

every microcosm has a Heavenly Dao.

As long as the Heavenly Dao is not problematic, even a Half-Saint would find it difficult to enter.

However

, Half-Saint Spirit Beasts are extremely rare.

If such Spirit Beasts had existed long ago, it would likely have caused a great stir.

Furthermore, the recent outbreak of the Calamity of Evil in Shenfeng Prefecture, followed shortly by the appearance of Evil Beasts in the myriad universes, makes the timelines quite close.

Moreover,

Shen Changqing was well aware that

after the fall of Shenyang Domain, the Calamity army not only affected various Immortal Realms, but a considerable number of Evil Beasts also penetrated into Chaos, stirring up trouble.

For example, the semi-saint Xuan Turtle that invaded Shentian Domain earlier was a ferocious beast living in Chaos.

Such beings were all corrupted by the power of the Calamity of Evil, so it was normal for the Calamity to spread and affect the myriad universes.

Afterwards,

Shen Changqing inquired about some details from Batian Divine Lord, gaining a better understanding of the situation in the myriad universes.

“According to you, the Heavenly Punishment has been constant for hundreds of years, and the power of the Heavenly Dao’s origin has been severely damaged.

If this continues, once the Heavenly Dao’s origin is exhausted, Evil Beasts above the Immortal King level will enter the myriad universes, unleashing a cataclysmic calamity!”

Shen Changqing frowned slightly.

The Overlord God nodded: “Within a hundred years, I fear the very source of the Heavenly Dao will be completely exhausted!” He

paused

, his expression growing increasingly grave: “Does the Sect Master have a solution? If not, then the entire universe may not escape this calamity—”

From Shen Changqing’s words, the Overlord God understood the origin of the strange creatures. Because

he understood ,

he truly grasped their terrifying nature. It was

true what they said: the more you know, the more powerless you feel.

Such a calamity, even the Upper Realm struggled to withstand, resulting in the fall of various Immortal Domains. With the strength of the entire universe, resisting such a calamity was probably impossible.

To be honest, the Overlord God didn’t have much confidence that Shen Changqing could resolve this calamity.

After all,

he had only ascended to the Upper Realm a few million years ago.

How far could he go in a few million years?

Even with Shen Changqing’s extraordinary talent, whether he could break through to the Immortal Emperor realm in a few million years was a question.

And this calamity was one where even Immortal Emperors would perish.

The fragment of a Celestial Emperor’s bone in the myriad universes was something the Overlord God-King had never forgotten.

Seeing the other’s worry, Shen Changqing’s expression returned to its usual calm.

“You don’t need to worry too much about the calamity.

If it were the complete calamity, I alone would naturally find it difficult to resolve.

However, the calamity affecting the myriad universes this time is ultimately only a very small fraction of the calamity’s power.

Compared to the entire calamity, this power is insignificant!”

There was something else he didn’t say.

Given the weakness of the myriad universes,

if the calamity’s power were stronger, it probably wouldn’t have lasted until the Overlord God-King ascended and requested aid.

At this moment,

Ji Yang and Gu Qingyang, along with other Dan Peak experts, also sensed this fluctuation of energy and approached.

Upon seeing the Overlord God, Gu Qingyang’s expression faltered slightly, then he cupped his hands in greeting: “Elder Overlord, it’s been a long time!”

“Saint Lord Gu?”

The Overlord God looked at Gu Qingyang, his expression also momentarily surprised, before he quickly realized who he was.

He was no stranger to this former Saint Lord of the Ancient Holy Land.

Especially since the other was Shen Changqing’s personal disciple and had frequently appeared at the Heavenly Sect, the two were quite familiar.

However, upon seeing Gu Qingyang again, the Overlord God felt the profound and unfathomable aura emanating from him, causing his own soul to tremble slightly, and his expression changed again.

The other had only ascended to the Upper Realm a few million years ago.

But judging from his aura, he was far stronger than himself.

On the other side,

Gu Qingyang also noticed something amiss, his expression changing slightly: “Elder Overlord, what has happened?”

“A calamity…”

Before the Overlord God could speak, Shen Changqing repeated the matter.

These words immediately made Gu Qingyang’s expression grave.

A calamity had occurred in the myriad universes!

This was a major event.

Gu Qingyang was all too aware of the terror of the calamity.

With the resources of the entire universe, there was absolutely no possibility of resisting it.

Even with the power of the Heavenly Dao to suppress it, what could be done?

The terror of the calamity lay largely in its astonishing sheer number.

If a calamity were to erupt, the sheer number of calamities alone could easily overwhelm the entire universe.

Shen Changqing said, “The calamity is currently causing chaos across the universe. This matter must be resolved as soon as possible, otherwise, if it is allowed to continue unchecked, the universe will undoubtedly be destroyed.”

With that,

he moved his divine sense, and Duan Changsheng, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes, appearing abruptly on Dan Peak.

Upon seeing this suddenly appearing powerhouse, Batian Shenjun’s breath caught in his throat.

Although Duan Changsheng hadn’t deliberately revealed his aura, even a small amount of it emanating from him gave him the illusion of the Great Dao collapsing.

A profound terror surged within him, causing the Heavenly Sect elder’s face to turn pale with horror.

“Sect Master!”

Duan Changsheng merely glanced at Batian Shenjun before looking away.

A newly promoted Ancient Immortal was not worth his attention.

Shen Changqing said, “I will be leaving the sect for a period of time. You will be responsible for guarding the sect afterwards. If there are any urgent matters, you can discuss them with the Supreme Elders and ask them to make a decision.

In addition, during my absence, Xuantian Dao Sect should focus on defense and avoid too many actions.

We will discuss everything when I return!”

“Understood!”

Duan Changsheng nodded in response.

Afterwards,

Shen Changqing used divine sense to inform Yang Daoxu and the others about this matter.

After all, if he were to leave, Xuantian Dao Sect would always need someone to oversee the overall situation.

Sect affairs

would be handled by Yang Daoxu, the former sect master.

As for combat power, it would be guarded by Duan Changsheng, the Longevity Demon God.

A half-saint level combat power guarding the sect was enough to handle most troubles.

After all, Duan Changsheng’s strength was not comparable to that of an ordinary Longevity Immortal.

With the bloodline and foundation of the Eternal Life Demon God, even a Second Tribulation Half-Saint personally arrived, and the opponent could be dealt with.

Although the calamity of evil spirits is currently rampant, most of the evil beasts are targeting other powerful immortal realms. The power of the evil beasts that are truly eyeing a mid-level immortal realm is generally not too strong.

Even if some unexpected power occasionally appears, Duan Changsheng’s strength is enough to suppress it.

Of course—

nothing is absolute.

Therefore

, after explaining the situation, Shen Changqing added, “If things really become unmanageable, then abandon the immortal realm and go to the Chaos to establish a Daoist temple, temporarily recuperate, and preserve the sect’s strength.

Other matters can be discussed later!”

This is the worst-case scenario.

But in Shen Changqing’s opinion, this situation is unlikely.

A mid-level immortal realm with a Half-Saint guarding it is practically impregnable.

However, it’s better to be safe than sorry, and some things should be explained clearly.

Upon hearing this, Duan Changsheng nodded and accepted the order.

Finally.

With a thought from Shen Changqing, Gu Bai and the others arrived immediately upon receiving the news.

Even

the Supreme Celestial God, who was currently in seclusion, appeared.

Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone’s faces, Shen Changqing didn’t explain much and directly summoned the Void Divine Ship.

As he stepped onto the ship, the others exchanged glances, asked no further questions, and followed suit.
