Reading Is Holy! Exposed By My Junior Sister!

Chapter 110: Nine Realms of Great Dao Open, Slaying the Upper Realm!

The opening of the gate to the Nine Realms has a far greater impact on the Formless World than expected.

There are rumors: Sword Ancestor of Sword Pavilion, who sits in meditation on Sword Mountain, has been guided by the opportunity of Great Dao. Once he comprehends the Dao, Dao Palace will begin to evolve into a pure land, the Ninth Layer Palace.

Although he has not entered the Nine Realms and has not become a Great Heavenly Venerable, he has firmly established himself as a pseudo Heavenly Venerable.

There are rumors that Meng Po of the Three Thousand Yellow Springs Hall, with the Yellow Springs transforming into a sea, steps by steps, crosses into the Ninth Layer of Dao Palace, becoming a pseudo Heavenly Venerable.

There are rumors that Yama of the Potala Realm, through enlightenment, becomes the Supreme Demon Lord of the Ninth Layer of Dao Palace, a pseudo Heavenly Venerable.

There are rumors that Emperor Song of the Underworld, through enlightenment in the silent sea, suddenly comprehends the Dao, and Dao Palace blossoms, evolving the cycle of reincarnation through the Six Paths.

There are rumors that Emperor Song of the Underworld, when the Holy Realm opens, intends to ascend to the Upper Realm to settle karmic debts.

The cause is unknown, and the return date is unknown.

There are rumors.

This is an era of powerful individuals, an era belonging to the Heavenly Venerables.

What era it is has nothing to do with Chen Chang'an.

On Hidden Dao Mountain, he eats and drinks as he pleases every day.

The Nine Realms have opened, and he remains the same. Even if the Nine Realms did not open, he would still be the same.

It doesn't matter.

The only thing worth noting is that after the Three Thousand Realms opened, the variety of living beings in the Formless World has become much denser.

For example, in the Central Divine Continent, on a not-so-large territory, there are already enough sects present.

Now, three Seven Realms Dao lineages suddenly appeared.

The Tai Chu Sect, the Flying Immortal Sect, and the Dao Yi Sect.

The sudden addition of these three Great Dao lineages instantly made the already tense situation among various forces even more complex.

As a declining Seven Realms Dao lineage, Heavenly Water Sect finds itself in a precarious situation.

Fortunately, a few days ago, Li Daoran suddenly had an enlightenment and forcefully broke through to the Sixth Realm, becoming a Sixth Realm Dao Lord.

This immediately eased the situation for Heavenly Water Sect to some extent.

It can't be said to be just a little bit eased. Although Heavenly Water Sect currently lacks a Seven Realms powerhouse, with Li Daoran, who has become a Sixth Realm, and the Elder Li Xuandao, who has long since achieved Dao, Heavenly Water Sect now has two Sixth Realm cultivators.

Having two Sixth Realm cultivators may not be considered strong, but it is definitely not weak.

Unless someone is out of their mind, no sect would willingly provoke them.

Not to mention that Heavenly Water Sect currently has Chen Chang'an, a scholar who once killed a Six Realm Sword Immortal with a single word.

No one would dare to provoke them.

However, it's just that others dare not provoke them.

While others dare not provoke them, Heavenly Water Sect itself cannot rise in power.

It can only be said that they are in a position that is neither too high nor too low.

"Elephant, for heaven, support the earth, and then act."

On Hidden Dao Mountain, inside the Sutra Pavilion, a gentle reading voice resonates in the air.

Outside the Sutra Pavilion, a woman in a green robe squats on the ground, supporting her cheek with her right hand, intoxicated by the gentle words of the book.

Beside the woman, a purple elephant with two big ears flaps its ears and frolics in the air, extremely happy.

Dang dang dang!

On this day, a majestic and distant bell rings from the main peak of Heavenly Water Sect.

"Senior Chen, Senior Mao, disciple Wang Daoyi greets the two seniors."

"The Elder and the Sect Master invite the two seniors to the main hall for a discussion."

Not long after the bell rings, a stream of light rushes from Heavenly Water Peak and eventually transforms into the appearance of a young disciple.

After arriving at Hidden Dao Mountain, the disciple immediately bows to Chen Chang'an and Mao Ruxue.

"Alright, Wang nephew, go back and tell the Sect Master and the Elder that we will be there soon."

When the disciple arrived, Chen Chang'an and Mao Ruxue had just finished breakfast. Chen Chang'an immediately said to him.

"Yes, Senior."

Upon receiving the reply, Wang Daoyi immediately bowed and then turned into a stream of light to return.

Wang Daoyi is the first disciple of the 39th generation of Heavenly Water Sect.

Because he received the literary seed planted by Chen Chang'an, his cultivation aptitude greatly improved.

From the situation where it was difficult to break through the Second Realm, he has now become a Third Realm cultivator.

Not only Wang Daoyi, but most of the disciples of Heavenly Water Sect have made significant breakthroughs in their cultivation.

Although they did not awaken the Heavenly Circulation Divine Inheritance like Li Daozhen and Li Ziwan, the rewards they obtained were not small.

The most obvious gain is the improvement of talent.

"Senior brother, when shall we leave?"

After Wang Daoyi left, Mao Ruxue asked Chen Chang'an.

As she spoke, she waved her hand and a small flying boat appeared.

The flying boat swelled against the wind and in the next moment, it turned into the size of a house. The flying boat was adorned with various delicate decorations.

"Let's go now," Chen Chang'an said after thinking for a moment.

"Alright, senior brother."

Mao Ruxue nodded and then turned to point at the flying boat.

"Rise."

In the next moment, the flying boat ascended.

The two stepped onto the flying boat and headed towards Heavenly Water Peak.

When Chen Chang'an and Mao Ruxue arrived at the main hall of Heavenly Water Peak, many people had already gathered there.

"Junior brother Chen, you've arrived."

Upon seeing Chen Chang'an and Mao Ruxue's arrival, Li Daoran immediately called out.

At this moment, Li Daoran's aura was restrained, exuding the unique essence of a cultivator at the Sixth Realm.

Like an extraordinary expert.

"Yes, senior martial brother, we're here," Chen Chang'an nodded.

Then, he led Mao Ruxue to the position belonging to Hidden Dao Mountain.

Immediately after, the sect assembly began.

During the assembly, Li Daoran took the lead in giving a speech.

He first summarized the various matters of Heavenly Water Sect in recent years, and then emphasized the severe situation that Heavenly Water Sect was currently facing.

With the opening of the Three Thousand Realms, it would not be easy for Heavenly Water Sect to survive without a cultivator at the Seventh Realm presiding over it.

Finally, Li Daoran mentioned the most important and widely spread recent event.

Emperor Song's intention to settle karmic debts in the Upper Realm.

When it came to this matter, a worried expression appeared between Li Daoran's eyebrows. He looked at everyone and said:

"Junior brothers, senior martial brothers, elders, and disciples."

"You all know that in recent years, the reason why our Heavenly Water Sect has been able to develop so steadily is mainly because of the presence of Iron-Blooded Underworld Emperor Song guarding the Nether Sea."

"Now, with the opening of the Three Thousand Realms, and this person about to conquer the Upper Realm."

"We all understand that in the Upper Realm, there may not be a Great Heavenly Venerable, but there will be at least one or two Heavenly Venerables."

"Emperor Song's conquest is bound to have an unpredictable future."

"Therefore, our Heavenly Water Sect must make preparations early."

"But this matter is too significant, so I would like to hear everyone's opinions on this."

After speaking, Li Daoran looked at everyone, waiting for their answers.

"Senior martial brother, I think we should discuss this matter thoroughly," Chen Chang'an replied.

Not long after Li Daoran's words were spoken, an old man stood up from the audience and spoke.

This old man was aged, with white hair, and had just reached the Fourth Realm in cultivation.

Chen Chang'an remembered that he was the peak master of one of the thirty-six main peaks, but couldn't recall his exact name.

"Oh? Junior brother Yang, why do you say that?" Li Daoran asked, puzzled by the old man's words.

The old man clasped his hands and said, "In response to senior martial brother's words, I believe this is likely a ruse released by Emperor Song."

"A ruse?" Li Daoran was stunned.

Before he could say anything, someone else stood up from the audience and spoke.

It was Bai Yunzi.

"I also think this might be a ruse," Bai Yunzi said.

"With someone like Emperor Song, if there were really any karmic debts in this world, he would have settled them long ago. Why wait until now?"

Upon hearing Bai Yunzi's words, more than eighty percent of the people in the hall nodded.

Indeed, it was not that they didn't want to believe Li Daoran, but this matter seemed to be nothing more than a rumor.

After all, based on Emperor Song's previous behavior, if there were really any karmic debts, he would have settled them long ago and wouldn't have waited until now.

"Junior brothers and senior brothers, this time you all made a mistake. This matter is true," Li Daoran shook his head and said, "Do you all still remember the organization that was destroyed five years ago?"

"The organization that was destroyed five years ago?"

Upon hearing Li Daoran's words, everyone was momentarily stunned.

In this day and age, organizations are formed and old organizations are destroyed every day.

Which one is Li Daoran referring to?

Wait, could it be that one?

Suddenly, a term flashed through everyone's minds.

San Sheng Temple.

"Master, are you talking about San Sheng Temple?!"

Immediately, everyone couldn't help but ask.

If there was any organization worth remembering among those destroyed by Formless World five years ago, it would undoubtedly be San Sheng Temple.

There was no other reason, but because this organization was too big, so big that it was boundless.

Almost every place in Formless World had their presence.

This organization was not a cult or a demonic organization.

On the contrary, they had a good reputation in Formless World.

If there were Saints in this world, then they were the true Saints.

However, it was this organization that had done good deeds that was wiped out from the land of Formless World five years ago by one person.

That battle lasted for three days and three nights.

And the person who started the war was none other than Emperor Song, who is now at the height of his power.

"Yes, it is indeed San Sheng Temple," Li Daoran nodded.

"Everything that San Sheng Temple has done on the mainland in recent years, although it seems to be for the good, they are actually setting up a trap."

"This is the information that the old ancestor told me before he passed away, it is true and reliable."

"About forty years ago, there was a tragic incident of annihilation in the Lanzhou region of the Heavenly Spirit World."

"A righteous family in the Lanzhou region, the Chen family, suffered a brutal annihilation for unknown reasons."

"In that battle, it was revealed that the head of the Chen family, Chen Jingzhi, was actually a Dao Palace Heavenly Venerable from the upper realm, who came to the lower realm with his wife to live in seclusion due to being tired of life."

"The incident happened when his wife was giving birth."

"It is said that two Heavenly Venerables from the upper realm descended and surrounded them."

"In that battle, the heavens crumbled, and the Great Dao of the Heavenly Spirit World was shattered."

"A moment of silence for the ten thousand paths."

In the end, it was Chen Jingzhi and his wife who abandoned their own Heavenly Venerable Dao Fruit to send the child away.

They tore open the sky of the Heavenly Spirit World with their Dao techniques and sent the child into the endless sea of stars, drifting with the sea.

After listening to Li Daoran's words, everyone present suddenly had some understanding.

"Master, could it be that you mean to say that the child is the current Emperor Song, and those killers are from San Sheng Temple?"

"If the old ancestor didn't deceive me, then it should be correct," Li Daoran sighed and nodded.

He said, "There are rumors that the child was saved from the endless sea by Yin Tianzi and was taught the six paths of Dao, Buddha, Demon, Sword, Immortal, and Heart."

"Six paths leading to demonic cultivation."

"And San Sheng Temple, Emperor Song's father Chen Jingzhi was originally one of the three Heavenly Venerables of San Sheng Temple."

"This is a premeditated assassination."

"This is a blood feud, an irreconcilable enmity. If it is not avenged, it would be unworthy of being human."

"Therefore, this matter must be true, and when the Holy Realm opens again, it will be the time when Emperor Song unleashes slaughter."

"Therefore, junior brothers, after this matter, please discuss what our Heavenly Water Sect should do."

After speaking, Li Daoran looked at everyone again, hoping to get some results.

"Huh? Forty years ago? Rescued?"

"Senior brother, your past is so similar to that Emperor Song."

"Senior brother, could it be that you are Emperor Song?!"

After Li Daoran finished speaking, the people below didn't have much of a reaction, but Mao Ruxue, who was sitting next to Chen Chang'an, had a face full of disbelief.

She pointed at her senior brother Chen Chang'an and said incredulously.

"Sister, I do wish I were Emperor Song, but unfortunately I am not."

Upon hearing Mao Ruxue's words, Chen Chang'an couldn't help but reach out and tap Mao Ruxue's forehead, saying, "Emperor Song has the bloodline of the Heavenly Venerable."

"Look at me, your senior brother, I look like I'm hanging by a thread, not a trace of noble bloodline."

"If you were to say I am the reincarnation of Emperor Song's Ksitigarbha, I might believe it a little, but anything else would be too far-fetched."

"And besides, Emperor Song was ultimately picked up by the Supreme Demon Lord of the Demon World in the Endless Sea."

"What great luck, to be picked up and stay in the atmosphere where no one else can stay."

"But as for me, your senior brother, I was found by our master in the woods wearing nothing but underwear. Can that be the same?"

"You tapped my head again, now I feel dumb," Mao Ruxue rubbed her forehead and pouted, looking at her senior brother Chen Chang'an.

She was just joking, but this annoying senior brother of hers, why did he react so strongly?

Then she continued, "But don't worry, senior brother, I won't say you're Ksitigarbha, I can absolutely guarantee that."

"Why?" Chen Chang'an asked.

Mao Ruxue said, "Because Ksitigarbha is female."

"Last time you said that," Mao Ruxue added at the end.

"You little girl."

Chen Chang'an immediately fell silent.

"But senior brother, you said that Emperor Song lacks nothing now."

"In terms of strength, although he is not the strongest in the world, he is still one of the few extremely powerful beings in the world."

"No matter where he wants to go in this world, no one can stop him."

"If he's already so strong, why would he want to go and kill in the Upper Realm?"

"Isn't that foolish?"

After a while, Mao Ruxue looked at Chen Chang'an and asked curiously again.

"Who knows."

Upon hearing Mao Ruxue's words, Chen Chang'an didn't answer immediately this time.

He looked up, his eyes fixed on the distant horizon, as if reminiscing and feeling melancholic.

Finally, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Mao Ruxue, saying, "Perhaps he has his reasons."

"He has his reasons?"

Upon hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Mao Ruxue seemed to understand the meaning of Chen Chang'an's words.

Blood feuds must be avenged.

In fact, a few years ago, Emperor Song did just that.

After gaining power, he immediately destroyed the Three Lives Temple in the Lower Realm.

And at that time, he was only at the Eighth Realm.

Now that the Dao Palace has been established, it is not impossible for him to go and kill in the Upper Realm.

Then Mao Ruxue asked again, "So, senior brother, how many people do you think Emperor Song will bring with him?"

"Is he going to bring the entire Emperor Song Palace to invade?"

"Just one," Chen Chang'an said after thinking for a moment.

"One?! Could it be the one from the depths of the Dead Sea of Silence?!"

Upon hearing Chen Chang'an's words, Mao Ruxue was instantly shocked.

Then she understood.

It is rumored that Emperor Song once had a mount.

It resembled a lion, with the appearance of a wolf, with wings on its back, tens of thousands of feet tall, and its name was Kunhuang.

It was an ancient giant demon that once roamed the boundless underworld of the Dead Sea of Silence.

It rarely appeared in normal times,

But it is undeniable that this Kunhuang is an absolutely terrifying existence by Emperor Song's side.

Not to mention its chaotic nature, even when it was in the underworld, it was already a dominant presence.

If it were to be released now, how strong would it be? It's unimaginable.

This time in the Upper Realm, it seems that it will truly be restless.

Thank you all for your support with the monthly votes. The ranking has already reached over 700. Finally, I ask for one more monthly vote, thank you!
