The experts of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms gathered together. They could no longer see the battle between Yu Feifan and Qin Wentian. The two of them were being controlled by heavenly deities and their battle spanned across the boundless space and had long vanished from their sight.
They had no way to predict who would be the winner of that battle. In the sky an extremely far distance away, resplendent light was illuminating the area but now, everything suddenly dimmed. The battle between the heavenly deities must have concluded. Although they were borrowing the bodies of empyreans to fight, given the strength of their will, the power they unleashed would naturally be far more shocking.
“Yu Feifan is an expert from the Winged God Race, since he met his ancestor here, they would definitely be the ones victorious.” Another expert from the Heavenly Deity Race spoke with confidence. They naturally hoped Yu Feifan was the victor. From the conversations between the two heavenly deities earlier, they could tell that the heavenly deities from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have a very deep hatred with the heavenly deities of Ancient Azure Mystic. In fact, they even felt somewhat jealous of Yu Feifan’s luck at being able to meet one of his ancestors.
Because, it would only serve to be of benefit to their future plans. In addition, they didn’t want to think about the fact that a heavenly deity of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms would lose when borrowing the body of his descendant to fight. After all, these empyreans were all a part of the Heavenly Deity Race.
“Let’s go.” A person spoke. They seemed to have forgotten the tragic experiences they faced earlier. Right now, there was only anticipation in their hearts. They also hoped they would be able to meet their ancestors here. It was true that some ancestor-level characters that were heavenly deities did participate in the world-ending battle here in Ancient Azure Mystic. These empyreans were sent here because they are one of the most proactive batches.
A person took out his messaging crystal and sent the news back to the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. The news about the appearance of two heavenly deities circulated around rapidly. If Qin Wentian knew of this, he would definitely be even more worried. Most probably, the world of Azure Mystic would find it hard to be peaceful any longer.
At this moment, Qin Wentian was in a dazed state. He stared at the heavenly god in front of him. ‘Finally, you are here?’
Although his talent was extraordinary, and it can be said with no exaggeration that his potential is at an extreme peak, but in front of a heavenly deity, an empyrean was simply too weak and inconsequential, nothing more but an insignificant being. A heavenly deity was here for millions of years just to wait for him? This sounded unbelievable. Also, it was clear that this person wasn’t acquainted with him at all. What did he mean by that?
“Senior, what do you mean by that?” Qin Wentian asked.
“You are the Overlord of Azure Mystic currently?” The heavenly deity didn’t reply him, asking him another question instead.
“Yes. Senior, you have seen my memories. Azure Mystic was in a period of great chaos and in order to restore peace, I decided to unify it. However, I won’t stay behind in Azure Mystic. In the future, I’ll head towards the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms for cultivation. If not, my cultivation base would reach a bottleneck, unable to advance further.” Qin Wentian spoke truthfully.
“Mhm.” That heavenly deity nodded. “Countless years ago, the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms started a war against Azure Mystic. The various heavenly deities there all descended here, launching attacks, the fires of war sweeping across Azure Mystic as they sought to steal away all divine depositories here, wanting Azure Mystic to submit to them, completely accepting the rule of those from the Heavenly Deity Race. This was why the world-ending battle occured. The skies were torn asunder as Azure Mystic was razed to the flat ground. If it wasn’t for the heaven-defying methods of the Heaven Lord. I’m afraid not even the current Azure Mystic as you know it would exist.
Waves of shock rose in Qin Wentian’s heart. Although he only heard this, he could still sense how brutal the world-ending battle that unfolded on a magnificent scale was. It was simply unimaginable how terrifying that battle was. How tyrannical were those heavenly deities? They wanted to seize all the divine depositories of Azure Mystic, making Azure Mystic submit to them.
However, they themselves didn’t realize what would happen. Azure Mystic actually resisted them and wasn’t willing to submit.
“I’m telling you this not because I want you to view the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms with hatred. Life is like this, when one reaches a supremely lofty position, how would they stand for the disobedience of others? They naturally wish to dominate everything and become the king and seek to become even stronger by seizing the divine depositories. To those existences that already stand at the peak, they only wanted to transcend everything, no one was allowed to threaten their authority.” That heaven deity continued. Qin Wentian nodded his head, maybe he didn’t have any such feelings now, but for those who truly stood at the very peak, things were different for them. They were already so high up, how would they be willing to see others surpassing them, replacing their positions? Could it be that they are not worried about being destroyed after they were surpassed?
The thirty three immortal realms are boundlessly vast but only a rare few super powers stood at the top. All of them hoped to stand at the highest level and since they don’t wish to be overtaken by those powers below them, it was naturally impossible for them to remain peaceful and not fight wars to plunder resources.
“Back then, the Imperishable Heaven Lord was given the title of Heaven Lord, he stood at the supreme peak of Ancient Azure Mystic. However, he had never developed a sect or clan belonging to himself and he also didn’t govern this world. The title given to him was a symbol of faith and conviction of Azure Mystic. All sorts of powers appeared then, developing smoothly. That was an incomparably glorious era or we wouldn’t have been able to resist the invasion of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. How could people of an era like that be willing to submit to others? Azure Mystic didn’t want to be a slave. Things are the same since ancient times and things would remain the same in the future. Since you are the current overlord of Azure Mystic, you should protect Azure Mystic and ensure that it is not destroyed.” The obsession of the heavenly deity was extremely deep. Despite the passage of countless years, he still wanted to protect Azure Mystic.
“Junior will do my best. But it’s just that if I’m forced by the general circumstances, I would have no choice as well, it’s really too difficult for me to retaliate with my strength alone if the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realm’s forces gathered. Just those descendants of the Heavenly Deity Race alone would be extremely tough to handle, given the fact that they all have treasures that can transmit the will of their elders.” Qin Wentian spoke.
“Ai…” That person sighed, “I didn’t expect the Azure Mystic today to be so weak.”
“What is the current situation out there? Why do I only see empyreans, are there no world overlords?”
“After the world-ending battle, Azure Mystic was sealed. There’s a mysterious existence that forbids experts from the other worlds to enter here. But now, the restriction order was relaxed, those who are empyreans and below can enter, which led to everything that happened now.” Qin Wentian replied. He then stared at the other party and asked, “Senior, since there’s someone who can seal Azure Mystic and poses a threat to the Heavenly Deity Race of the upper world, could it be that the Imperishable Heaven Lord is not dead yet? He still exists in this world?”
“Impossible. The Heaven Lord had entered eternal sleep, accompanying Azure Mystic, his flesh and blood are already a part of this world.” That heavenly deity shook his head, his eyes filled with sorrow. How magnificent was the Heaven Lord then? If he still existed, how could Azure Mystic have fallen so low?
“Then, who is that mysterious existence?” Qin Wentian asked.
“Didn’t you meet him before?” The heavenly deity smiled at Qin Wentian, his words causing Qin Wentian to have a bewildered look on his face. He met that existence before?
“You received his inheritance but you didn’t know about it?”
A dazzling light flashed in Qin Wentian’s eyes as he stared at that heavenly deity. His heart trembled, could it be that person…?
That crazy old freak was actually the person guarding Azure Mystic?
He had always stayed in the forbidden grounds, so it turned out that he was guarding the entrance to Ancient Azure Mystic?
“You remember now?” The heavenly deity spoke. Qin Wentian nodded, “Senior, you are referring to the Undying Scripture?”
“Yes. In this world, who else can have the Undying Scripture? Undying and imperishable, that is the cultivation art of the Imperishable Heaven Lord.” The heavenly deity sighed as he continued, “The ancient prophecy has become reality. The sun and moon alternated, the skies of Azure Mystic changed. From now on, you will be the one to receive and continue on the will of the Imperishable Heaven Lord, guarding Azure Mystic from destruction.”
“Me?” Qin Wentian was speechless. The Undying Scripture actually originated from the Imperishable Heaven Lord? Why did that old freak pass him the cultivation art of the Imperishable Heaven Lord so easily just like that? Wasn’t that a little too casual?
“Did you not cultivate the Death Scripture before?” The other party asked.
Qin Wentian shook his head, “That old man passed the Death Scripture to a friend of mine. She cultivated the Death Scripture and is now in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.”
The eyes of that heavenly deity flickered with bewilderment as he continued, “In that case, summon her over. The zombies in the ancient battlefield will listen to all her commands and fight the invaders for you all. There’s no need for you to fight alone anymore.”
Qin Wentian started. The Death Scripture actually had such a miraculous effect?
When he thought of the methods of Beiming Youhuang those years ago, Qin Wentian suddenly understood. He frowned slightly, “Senior, her cultivation is slightly low, only at the peak-stage of the immortal emperor realm. Would things be too dangerous for her?”
“Since you are here, how can she not come? Seeing how worried you are, are you in love with her?” That heavenly deity laughed.
Black lines filled Qin Wentian’s face. The heavenly deity studied his expression for a moment before he laughed, “Just summon her here, I will help her to break through the immortal emperor realm. There should be many places here in the ancient battlefield suitable for her cultivation.”
Qin Wentian muttered to himself irresolutely before he nodded, “Alright.”
After that, he took out his messaging crystal and sent a strand of his immortal sense in. “Youhuang, there are great changes in Azure Mystic. Did you receive any news?”
After he spoke, Qin Wentian stared at the heavenly deity before him only to see the heavenly deity smiling at him.
“Mhm, in the various regions of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, news of this nature was being circulated, all of them talking about the world-ending battle between the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms and Azure Mystic Immortal Realms. The Lifelong Realmlord is now hesitating, he is wondering if he should summon the world palace lords and send them to Azure Mystic.” At this moment, Beiming Youhuang’s voice rang out in his mind. Qin Wentian could understand why the Lifelong Realmlord was hesitating. Given the situation now, the ruler of a realm wasn’t considered a major character. If he sent his empyreans here, they might very well become nothing but cannon fodder.
“The changes to Azure Mystic has a connection with you and me. Someone wishes for you to come back.” Qin Wentian spoke. Beiming Youhuang fell silent, after a few moments, she asked, “A connection with you and me?”
“Yes. The entrance leading to the ancient battlefield is in the forbidden grounds of your Darknorth Immortal Dynasty. The crazy old freak who taught us back then actually has a link to the Imperishable Heaven Lord and passed onto us his inheritances. Right now, there are many zombies in this ancient battlefield, I encountered the surviving strand of an ancient heavenly deity here and he told me that if you come here, these zombies would all be controlled by you, fighting for us.” Qin Wentian explained. He then continued, “However, it’s best that you consider things clearly before you decide to come or not.”
Beiming Youhuang pondered, but a moment later, she replied, “I will do my best to come back.”
“Mhm, alright.” Qin Wentian nodded and kept his messaging crystal. The heavenly deity before him looked at him and asked, “Since you are titled the Heaven Empyrean of the current Azure Mystic, you should have many loyal immortal emperor subordinates, right? Bring them all here. I will do what I can to help them achieve a breakthrough. In the future, they can fight together with you!”
