Chapter 805 - 365: Revered by All Living Beings, Li Chang’an Forms a Fake Soul

"Divine Lord!"

Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor and the others hurriedly bowed, expressing their respect and submission to Fire Cloud Divine Lord.

Meanwhile, Gao Tianlan, Mu Danyang, and their group kept their backs straight, fully prepared for a fight to the death.

"Divine Lord, these people have sought refuge with a man named Li Changqing!"

With a face full of humility, Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor pointed at Gao Tianlan and the others, recounting the events that had transpired over the years.

As he spoke, the atmosphere in the Divine Emperor’s Mansion grew increasingly oppressive. Everyone had a premonition that a storm was about to sweep through the entire Celestial Wave Divine Emperor’s Mansion.

However, after Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor finished speaking, Fire Cloud Divine Lord did not attack. He simply said in a calm tone, "It’s nothing. I have also submitted to Changqing Divine Lord."

"What?"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone’s faces filled with astonishment.

They exchanged bewildered glances, finding it hard to believe. They thought they had misheard.

The dignified Fire Cloud Divine Lord, a powerhouse close to the Fourth Realm, had actually submitted to Li Chang’an!

"Divine Lord, you... you’re not joking, are you?"

Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor’s face turned pale, and his voice trembled slightly.

If Fire Cloud Divine Lord had truly submitted to Li Chang’an, then what would happen to someone like him who had openly led a betrayal?

Fire Cloud Divine Lord shot him an indifferent glance. "Cyan Wolf, it seems you still harbor treacherous intentions."

"No, no... Lord Divine Lord, I absolutely do not have any treacherous intentions." Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor felt a surge of regret and repeatedly defended himself. "Since you have also submitted to Changqing Divine Lord, then my submission to you is equivalent to submitting to Changqing Divine Lord."

"What a fool."

Fire Cloud Divine Lord could not be bothered to say more and casually struck out with his palm.

BOOM!

Cyan Wolf Divine Emperor exploded on the spot, turning into a puddle of flesh and blood.

Behind him, the dozen or so Divine Emperors all turned pale. They fell dead silent, terrified that they would be purged along with him.

But Fire Cloud Divine Lord did not even look at them. He merely said, "Go and call the other Divine Emperors. Changqing Divine Lord wishes to see you all."

"Yes!"

Many of those present breathed a sigh of relief. They transformed into streams of light and departed, heading toward other Divine Domains.

The next day.

In the Fire Cloud Secret Realm, over a hundred Divine Emperors gathered at the Fire Cloud Divine Hall.

Of course, the Fire Cloud Divine Hall had now been renamed the Changqing Divine Hall.

Li Chang’an stood with his hands behind his back, clad in a white robe. His gaze swept over the numerous Divine Emperors. "Is everyone here?"

"Everyone is present," Fire Cloud Divine Lord replied. He stood to the side, his body slightly bowed, his face full of awe and reverence.

At his signal, the hundred-plus Divine Emperors bowed in unison, their voices ringing out clearly as one. "We pay our respects to Changqing Divine Lord!"

"Mm."

Li Chang’an nodded slightly.

From this day onward, the entire Fire Cloud Secret Realm officially belonged to him!

He flicked his fingers, shooting out several streams of Magical Power. A few Divine Emperors who harbored rebellious intentions instantly exploded on the spot.

The stench of blood in the great hall immediately grew much thicker.

The rest of the crowd tensed up, breaking out in cold sweats. They lowered their heads, not daring to meet Li Chang’an’s gaze.

"Rest assured, everyone. I have never liked unnecessary killing. The only reason I killed those few was because of their betrayal." Li Chang’an’s calm voice echoed continuously within the Divine Hall.

As he spoke, he waved his hand. A streak of Spiritual Light flew out from his Storage Pouch and landed on one side of the great hall, transforming into a verdant pavilion. "This is the Changqing Pavilion. It has a total of seven floors, and each floor contains treasures. The higher you go, the more precious the treasures become. The seventh floor holds Celestial Grade Techniques and Magic."

"Celestial Grade?"

Hearing this, everyone raised their heads and looked at the Changqing Pavilion in absolute shock.

Before today, a Celestial Grade Technique had never appeared in the entire Fire Cloud Secret Realm.

Even Golden Core powerhouses could only practice Top Grade Techniques; they had not even seen Earth Grade ones.

But now, a Celestial Grade Technique was right in front of their eyes!

Moreover, Li Chang’an would not have brought out this Changqing Pavilion for no reason. He was clearly going to give them a chance to obtain Cultivation Techniques.

At the thought of this, the crowd could not help but feel excited and thrilled, and their previous fear and unease diminished significantly.

Li Chang’an’s expression remained indifferent as he took in everyone’s reactions. He continued, "As long as you make enough contributions, you can exchange them for the treasures inside."

"Divine Lord, how do we earn contributions?" Gao Tianlan asked cooperatively, his face full of reverence.

"It’s simple," Li Chang’an explained. "You can earn contributions by offering treasures or completing tasks. Of course... the best way to earn contributions is to bring me faith."

"Faith?"

"Exactly!" Li Chang’an swept his gaze over the crowd and nodded slightly. "As Divine Emperors, each of you controls a Divine Domain. The more faith your respective Divine Domain provides, the more contributions you will receive."

"Divine Lord, does faith from both mortals and Cultivators count?"

"Yes, as long as it is faith, it counts."

With a casual wave of his hand, Li Chang’an tossed out over a hundred Jade Scrolls, instructing them on the best methods to gather faith.

After the meeting ended, the hundred-plus Divine Emperors sprang into action, rushing back to their respective Divine Domains at maximum speed.

In the days that followed, the Mortal Realms throughout the entire Fire Cloud Secret Realm experienced successive regime changes. Cultivators directly took over the roles of Emperors and Ministers.

The statues in all the temples of the secular world were replaced with statues of Li Chang’an.

The sole object of all sacrifices and worship had to be Li Chang’an.

Countless Cultivators appeared across the Mortal Realms.

They used Magic to resolve natural disasters, distributed grain, and killed corrupt officials, doing everything in their power to fulfill the needs of the mortals. At the same time, they proclaimed that all of this was done by the order of Li Chang’an, the Changqing Divine Lord.

"Thank you, Divine Lord!"

"Father, Mother, the Divine Lord sent a divine envoy to kill the corrupt officials who were bullying us!"

"The Divine Lord even appointed a Water Dragon King. We’ll never have to suffer from severe droughts again..."

Countless mortals were endlessly grateful. Many even wept bitterly, thinking they were in a dream, dreaming of an unprecedented golden age.

In just two short years, the entire Fire Cloud Secret Realm took on a completely new look.

Now, the masses of the Fire Cloud Secret Realm all revered Changqing Divine Lord.

Before the Divine Lord’s statues, as long as one prayed with genuine devotion, they could vaguely see a hazy white light.

At the end of the light stood a blurry figure in a white robe. He stood with his hands behind his back, facing away from all living beings, exuding an aura of mystery and immense power.

In the very center of the world, deep within the Changqing Divine Hall.

Li Chang’an sat cross-legged.

With his eyes slightly closed, he looked inward at his Dantian, circulating the Faith Technique with all his might.

A massive amount of faith from all living beings continuously surged into his Dantian like a tidal wave, causing his aura to skyrocket rapidly. In an instant, he broke through the Tier Three Limit.

Within just a few breaths, his aura climbed madly, gradually approaching an entirely different level.

Inside his Dantian, a phantom image faintly emerged above his Golden Core.

Finally, this phantom image took shape. It was an infant that looked remarkably similar to him.

At this moment, his own aura underwent a sudden leap, successfully crossing into another level.

Li Chang’an opened his eyes and slowly stood up. An unprecedented sense of power spread through his body. Even a tiny trace of his aura was enough to make a Golden Core Cultivator tremble.

"Today, I have achieved the Fake Soul!"
