Ancient Godly Monarch

Qin Wentian and the others were fully immersed in the lectures and the days passed by very quickly. Today, the dao lectures ended. The heavenly deities were all prepared to bring the ones who inherited their wills to different secret realms for cultivation.

Since the wills of the heavenly deities had existed for so long in this floating city, they naturally knew where the secret realms and divine depositories were. Although many were already damaged, there were still some that remained.

“Skybreak.” I wish to bring them to the secret realm set up by the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity back then. What do you think?” The Futian Battle God sought the Skybreak Heavenly Deity’s opinion. After all, they had an agreement and Skybreak’s will would follow Qin Wentian.

But in reality, Qin Wentian was still guided by all of them, providing the best environment for him to cultivate. Before this when giving dao lectures, all the heavenly deities shared their experiences to clear his doubt. The Skybreak Heavenly Deity could also understand this. The reason why he brought Qin Wentian here was precisely because he hoped that the prophecy of bringing peace to the thirty-three heavens would come true.

Of course, he had a selfish motive. He wanted revenge. Now that Qin Wentian obtained the teachings of all the heavenly deities of Ancient Azure Mystic, the trajectory of his life was already set. Even if he didn’t go and offend the Heavenly Deity Race, would those heavenly deities from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, that once invaded Ancient Azure Mystic, spare him? In the future, there would surely be a storm of blood.

By receiving such inheritances, there naturally would be the dangers and responsibilities associated with it. Qin Wentian and the others should be very clear of this. The largest threat they would face was undoubtedly from the Heavenly Deity Race. Their responsibilities were to protect and restore Ancient Azure Mystic to its former glory.

“In the past, I heard that the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity had the deepest comprehension with regards to laws. He created the World of Ten Thousand Laws and in there, from weak to strong, almost all the heavenheart mandates ever manifested before could be found there, it truly contains everything. His teachings spread across the world and countless empyreans wanted to take him as their master. Myriad Laws had nurtured the most World Overlords out of all the heavenly deities, none could compared to him.”

The Skybreak Deity continued, “And now, since Qin Wentian received such good fortune, things couldn’t be better. Is the World of Ten Thousand Laws preserved?”

“Mhm. The World of Ten Thousand Laws is the heart’s blood of the Myriad Laws heavenly Deity. Because the secret realm exists, Myriad Laws’ teaching was able to spread throughout the world. Sadly, even a grand character like that ultimately wasn’t able to resist the fate of being annihilated, not even a strand of his will remained. The only thing remaining was his World of Ten Thousand Laws.” The Futian Battle God sighed. The Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity was one of the heavenly deities he admired the most in the past. If speaking about the number of world overlords nurtured, there was no doubt that the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity was the number one in Ancient Azure Mystic.

“What a pity, if Myriad Laws was still alive, it would undoubtedly be extremely suitable for him to guide Qin Wentian.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity sighed.

“Alright, since this is the case, let us move out then. The members of the Battle Saint Tribe can follow me. After sending Qin Wentian into the World of Ten Thousand Laws, I’ll bring you all to the other secret realms for training.” The Futian Battle God spoke. All the heavenly deities were preparing to bring their inheritors and those they were guiding away. Qin Wentian stared at Qing`er, “Cultivate well.”

“Youhuang, Little Qing, Little Rascal, Purgatory, Mengchen, everyone…you guys must work hard!” Qin Wentian glanced at all of them. “Also, father-in-law, Darknorth Immortal Emperor, senior brother Wuya, Yaoyue has already broken through, you guys have to work on it as well.”

The Evergreen Immortal Emperor and the others laughed embarrassedly, glancing at Nanfeng Yaoyue. Nanfeng Yaoyue exuded a holy and elegant aura, her demeanor was like a goddess, much more outstanding than before. She smiled and spoke to Qin Wentian, “We all understand. But as for you, we are all waiting for you to break through to the world overlord realm. The Heaven Empyrean of Azure Mystic cannot be too weak.”

“Right.” Qin Wentian smiled. After that, they split from each other, brought by the different heavenly deities to different secret realms. The Futian Battle God let Qin Wentian and the other members of the Battle Saint Tribe climb up on his body before he gathered speed and ran in a certain direction with every step traversing a thousand miles.

Qin Wentian stood at the gigantic shoulders of the Futian Battle God. A smile appeared in his star-like eyes as he saw everyone moving off in different directions. All of them had their own martial paths to follow, this is the best ending. He hoped that everyone would be able to grow together and fight side by side with him.

…

The Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity has his own divine mountain. This divine mountain was extremely gigantic, with its peak touching the skies. Looking upwards from the ground, one could only see the peak of the mountain covered by a layer of clouds. However, Qin Wentian could see that this mountain had suffered intense destruction, marks of battles could be seen in the surroundings everywhere.

“This is the divine mountain the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity used to cultivate on, but now, it’s only a stretch of desolation. This place once used to be incomparably prosperous, there would always be empyreans who came by everyday at the foot of this mountain, seeking their daos. In fact, there were even many world overlords who stayed outside for tens of thousands of years, waiting for a chance to enter, hoping to move the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity with their sincerity.” The Futian Battle God sighed when he saw the devastated state of the mountain.

“Seems like the Myriad Laws Heavenly Deity was an extremely popular one.” Qin Wentian mused in his heart. His heart was filled with respect despite the devastated surroundings. He landed on the ground and bowed towards the divine mountain. “Today, I’m fortunate enough to borrow senior’s World of Ten Thousand Laws to cultivate. It’s just that I sigh with regret because I’m not fated to be able to witness senior’s glory.”

“Haha, if you have the heart, after you restore Ancient Azure Mystic, you can spread the names of these ancient heavenly deities and tell everyone of the deeds they did, inscribing their moments in the history of Azure Mystic. Although there is no meaning in doing so, these grand characters of the past shouldn’t have to remain nameless, buried within the passage of time.” The Futian Battle God spoke.

“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded.

“Let’s go.” The Futian Battle God laughed and brought Qin Wentian and the others along as he continued moving forward. After ascending the divine mountain, they arrived before a Qiankun Palace. There seemed to be another universe within it. Runic light flared brilliantly, radiating the majesticness of the Great Dao.

At the end of the palace, there lies a path with countless circle-shaped rune flaring with light, opening and closing. There seemed to be an entrance at the very end of the path.

“This is none other than the world-famous World of Ten Thousand Laws of Ancient Azure Mystic. Countless empyreans and world overlords were willing to give everything they have just for a chance to enter here to cultivate. This place is extremely useful for you if you want to comprehend heavenheart mandates. Do your best.” The Futian Battle God spoke.

“I will.” Qin Wentian nodded.

“Go in then. Skybreak, please take care of him.” The Futian Battle God spoke to the Skybreak Heavenly Deity’s will.

The Skybreak Heavenly Deity nodded his head. His will then entered into Qin Wentian’s mind. Qin Wentian walked forward, directly moving towards the runic light. In an instant, his figure vanished completely.

At the moment Qin Wentian stepped through the entrance, he felt time and space was skewed. After that, he landed on solid ground and shook his head to clear the dizziness.

“Where is this place?” Qin Wentian glanced at his surroundings only to see that everything completely changed. The gloomy black sun had already vanished. Now, there actually was warm sunny weather, like that of springtime. At this moment, Qin Wentian’s eyes suddenly narrowed. He stared up at the sky, he could see an illusory stone monument there with two words inscribed on it – Shattered Void.

“Empyrean?” At this moment, a voice rang out. The illusory stone monument actually manifested a soul form and was staring imperiously at Qin Wentian.

“You are here to experience the World of Ten Thousand Laws? Seems like you will have to suffer quite a bit.” The monument spirit laughed. Qin Wentian didn’t understand, he then spoke, “Would senior provide me with guidance then?”

“Guidance?” The monument spirit laughed even louder. “Just enjoy it well.”

As the sound of his voice faded, a terrifying might enveloped this space. In just an instant, Qin Wentian felt everything changing. The atmosphere was no longer like springtime, he could feel a heavy tension in the air.

Qin Wentian instantly summoned all his energy in defense. A giant buddha dharma body manifested, he was prepared to react to all changes.

The monument spirit coldly smiled, “Kill!”

As the sound of the word ‘kill’ faded, Qin Wentian felt an energy that could destroy space blasting over towards him. This energy wasn’t manifested by an innate technique or a secret art. It was purely energy from one’s cultivation base.

In the span of a single thought, all space would shatter. His dharma body instantly collapsed and his original body had to endure against that devastating attack. His expression drastically changed as a look of fear appeared. The undying energy circulated profusely as he poured all his strength into defending against that.

At this moment, Qin Wentian only felt that cracks appeared in the space all around him, there was no way for him to hide. It was the same no matter where he fled to, he could only endure such an attack, an attack produced by a mere thought from his opponent.

“ARGH!” A terrifying sensation of pain flooded him as cracks appeared on his body. Staring at his struggle, the monument spirit didn’t show any mercy at all. He lifted his fist and directly punched out.

“BOOM…” Space crumbled apart. At this moment, Qin Wentian could no longer resist. As the punch shot out, although the distance between him and it was extremely faraway, the punch instantly slammed into his body.

Qin Wentian’s expression contorted, turning pale. Such power was simply unblockable. His consciousness was telling him that his body was about to collapse, intense pain flooded his entire being. At this moment, he was even doubting the intentions of the Futian Battle God and the rest. What did they mean by sending him here? Were they planning to let this place torture him to his death?

In the next instant, even his consciousness was being extinguished by this power. He had no way to describe such a feeling. The best he could describe it was that this was death, the feeling of true death.

He was completely helpless, he wanted to struggle, he thought of many things and thought of many people. What would happen to Qing`er and Qingcheng? He hasn’t found his parents yet, they were still waiting for him.

Would everything end just like that?

Just as Qin Wentian’s consciousness on the brink of being completely wiped, he suddenly felt a bright light in his mind. His consciousness recovered, his injuries also recovered. When he opened his eyes, he was completely uninjured, but his body was covered by the sheen of cold sweat.

“An illusion?” Qin Wentian drew in a deep breath. That earlier feeling of death was truly too terrifying. It was the same as what he felt back then in the war at the Evergreen Immortal Empire. He believed that he was going to die.

He bitterly smiled and shook his head, this was too fearsome. The Futian Battle God and Skybreak Heavenly Deity actually didn’t warn him about this.

“Was that an attack using the power of a heavenheart mandate? Shattered void, he was capable of shattering all space. If that truly was a world overlord, his world heart could envelop everything and with a single thought, everyone in his world domain would instantly be destroyed. Also, that attack earlier was from one of the weakest type of heavenheart mandates?”

Qin Wentian wasn’t able to remain calm. Hearing the dao lectures by heavenly deity and personally witnessing things are completely different.

This World of Ten Thousand Laws was precisely a place where he can truly feel the sensation of heavenheart mandates attacking him with his own body!
