Ninth-level fairy

Chapter 304 The Dark Ascendant

"After she took the formula engraved on the tortoise shell away, she spent four hundred years preaching to the human race in Taiyuan Continent, Zhengyang Continent, and Qinglu Continent, helping ordinary creatures weave dreams and, through their willpower, ascending to the Immortal Realm. Unfortunately, they didn't know that the Immortal Realm was just a cage. The Heavenly Emperor of the Upper Realm would not allow or allow anyone to rebuild the path to heaven and seize their divine positions, which they had left for their descendants who had once lived in the Nine Continents..."

Before Youhuang could finish her words, Baizhi interrupted her directly:

"You've been inside this Netherworld Scroll the entire time and never left. How do you know what's been happening outside for so many years, and in such detail?"

You Huang smiled again:

"Miss Bai, you probably don't know that the three tribes of Jinghai today are not the original biological races of our Qingxuan Continent!"

Du Fang's heart skipped a beat. Just as he was about to ask, "Didn't you just say that?" Bai Zhi suddenly asked cautiously:

"Where do they come from?"

"In the northernmost reaches of the Qingxuan Continent, there is a city called Jubei. That city has stood for thousands of years, standing firm at the North Pole. What do you think is its reason?"

"for what?"

"In order to keep the Others and Demons from another world out of Jiuzhou, the Human Emperor later suppressed the Others, Demons, and the fused Eldar with the Jinghai. This is the origin of the three tribes of Jinghai today!"

"Does what you said have anything to do with what you know about the outside world?"

Bai Zhi was displeased and asked back.

You Huang sneered:

"Of course there is a connection. Emperor Huangqiu didn't exterminate these foreign races and creatures, but instead exiled them to the present-day Boundary Sea, the former home of our race. To adapt to the thin spiritual energy here, these creatures began absorbing the death energy and resentment of deceased cultivators. However, their cultivation continued to weaken until they discovered the bottom of the Boundary Sea, the netherworld trapped in the painting..."

"So many powerful people perished in that battle, isn't that enough for them to absorb?"

Du Fang asked in a daze.

"Of course it's not enough. Among the three tribes in Jinghai, the Spirit Tribe is the most respected. This is because the Spirit Tribe is a fusion of beings and has no physical body. The black-clothed wise spirit that I repelled before was one of the three spirits of the Spirit Tribe. You have seen it!"

The two nodded at the same time, they had indeed seen it.

You Huang continued:

"The three tribes of Jinghai, including the elders of the Spirit Tribe, used the evil magic they brought with them to refine the dead human cultivators. This gave rise to the current Ghost Tribe. The demonic beasts and demonic ghosts they brought with them became the current Demon Tribe. Thus, the three tribes were formed..."

"But they came at the wrong time. After the ascension path on the Jiuzhou Continent was cut off, the spiritual energy became thin, and the cultivation and magic power of these people were also constantly weakening, so..."

"They also began to worship the Hades. As the Saintess of my clan, you two know that I have survived until now thanks to His Majesty's divine thoughts. So, through their prayers, I learned what has happened outside over the past ten thousand years!"

The three of them fell silent at the same time.

After a long while, Du Fang finally said:

"The things you mentioned have never been recorded in any external texts... and there are no rumors about them in the human world..."

You Huang finally revealed a scornful smile:

"Because the history of the Jiuzhou Continent was completely erased by the Heavenly Emperor long ago. Unless you can discover the ancient Dao Court buried underground, all current legends and history have been completely erased by the Heavenly Emperor of the upper realm who reversed the long river of time. The myths of cultivation also stopped at 10,000 years ago. It is almost impossible for you to know the history before the prehistoric times!"

Du Fang and Bai Zhi looked at each other.

They both knew that the old woman was telling the truth.

The history of the entire Jiuzhou continent ended with the chaos and destruction ten thousand years ago.

As for the tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years before, no ancient book has ever recorded it.

But this is not the point.

The key point is how to get out of the Netherworld Scroll.

Du Fang took a look at the ancient town shrouded in golden light and asked:

"Is the divine consciousness of your Majesty the Dark Emperor within this ancient town?"

You Huang looked at the floating ancient town and nodded calmly: "Yes, only here can His Majesty fall into a deep sleep. It's a pity that in the past thousand years, ever since Li Qinghua left here, His Majesty has not slept well!"

One thousand years, one thousand years is a node.

A flash of light suddenly flashed through Du Fang's mind. He remembered that in the Dragon Abyss Divine Mountain, countless powerful warriors of the Seventh Realm had not turned into rain of light after their death, but had their heavenly paths intercepted by others. He immediately looked at Bai Zhi and asked:

"The Nine Continents' powerful cultivators, in order to achieve the Emperor Realm, intercepted the souls of countless dead beings and prevented those above the Seventh Realm from achieving Dao. This must have started a thousand years ago, right?"

Bai Zhi didn't say anything, but You Huang smiled bitterly and said:

"This secret was brought back by His Majesty from the upper realm. It is the ultimate secret of the Five Heavenly Emperors' rule over the continent, the secret of the law of intercepting the power of the Heavenly Dao. It was suppressed by His Majesty in her dreams. After more than ten thousand years, Li Qinghua deceived me and His Majesty, entered this town, obtained this secret, and then took it away from here!"

"Since then, sword geniuses have continued to rise in the Nine Continents, intercepting the power of the Heavenly Dao. The seven great sword sects of the Nine Continents rose to prominence during that time..."

The sound of the bamboo is light and sad:

"Since then, Her Majesty, who had been asleep for ten thousand years, has often awakened. However, she cannot leave this Netherworld Scroll. With three immortal artifacts weighing on her, even if she escapes, it will once again alert the Heavenly Emperor of the Upper Realm and bring down divine punishment!"

Du Fang couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Your clan's Dark Emperor, suppressed by three immortal artifacts, is he still alive?"

"Of course, in the lower realm, the Heavenly Emperor's power cannot be fully exerted. He cannot kill His Majesty's Dao Body, so he can only use the immortal weapon to suppress her..."

"Then why did she choose me, summon me, and test me in dreams? To let me inherit her will and ambition to slay gods?"

"You are indeed the one chosen by His Majesty!"

Youhuang's eyes were full of admiration.

"What if I don't want to?"

"You cannot inherit His Majesty's will. You will never be able to leave this Netherworld Scroll!"

Du Fang chuckled, "Are you threatening me?"

You Huang's expression was numb. "No, when Li Qinghua entered here, she also inherited the will of the Nether Emperor and rebuilt the path to heaven. However, her cultivation was not enough, and she was trapped and died in the cage of the Immortal Realm."

"Then why do you still say that I deceived you and your Majesty?"

Bai Zhi said indignantly.

"Because she spread the truth that all the powerful cultivators in the world return to heaven after death, if this continues, the Emperor of Heaven will not be able to replenish the purple and blue energy in the Heavenly Heart Seal, and the sleeping True God will not be able to be fed by the souls of the dead. The originally peaceful order will become chaotic again. Whether it is Your Majesty or the Emperor of Heaven in the upper realm, their realm will continue to degenerate, their physical bodies will continue to shrink, and finally..."

"Isn't this a good thing?" Du Fang also began to wonder.

If the Heavenly Emperor's realm degenerates and he becomes like a human, then what's the point of cultivating the path to heaven? Just wait for them to degenerate.

You Huang chuckled, his voice full of disdain and sneer:

"You think it's really simple. The gods in the upper realm maintain the current favorable order to ensure this kind of support. Once the way of heaven collapses and this support is unsustainable, chaos will come. At that time, the land of Jiuzhou will sink, the sea will shift, and even the entire Qingxuan Continent will be shattered. It is all predictable. You have witnessed the power of the Emperor of Heaven!"

Youhuang curled his lips:

"Do you really think that all the ascenders before the Great Desolation were kind-hearted bodhisattvas? Their darkness far exceeds your imagination. From the moment they became ascenders, their humanity was long since purged from their bodies. They are creatures from another dimension, like fish that have come ashore..."

"When they climbed onto land, ascended to the sky, and entered the dark void, these creatures were no longer human. As for the Jiuzhou Continent, where they were once born and raised, it simply became a container for them to raise Gu."

Du Fang suddenly said:

"I once heard a senior say these words, and they are exactly the same as what you said."

Bai Zhi chuckled:

"Didn't my uncle sacrifice himself to write his name on this Netherworld Scroll when we entered it? What she said is exactly the same as what this Dream Weaver senior said."

"I told her to tell you that!"

Youhuang said lightly.

"why?"

"Because Your Majesty is looking forward to your arrival!"
