Chapter 3026: Nine Heavens as Court

Translator: Legge

The Fiend Lord was way too enigmatic and had too many mysteries. However, the Martial Dao Prime Body was certain of one thing.

The Fiend Lord, or rather, the faction behind the Fiend Lord, had been fighting against the Heavenly Court for several eras!

Now that the Fiend Lord chose to appear and enveloped him and Die Yue in this world without any hostility towards the two of them, the greatest possibility was that he wanted to rope them in.

That being the case, the Fiend Lord would definitely be sincere enough to answer the doubts in the heart of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

The Fiend Lord, Heaven Burial, Empress Evil, Six Paths, Ghost Mother, the Heavenly Court, the ancient Great Emperors… There were way too many mysteries.

“What do you want to know?”

As though he could read the thoughts of the Martial Dao Prime Body, the tomb keeper took the initiative to ask.

The Martial Dao Prime Body pondered for a moment and said slowly, “Everything about the Heavenly Court!”

Throughout history, the Heavenly Court was the core of all mysteries and catastrophes!

In the depths of the tomb keeper’s eyes, an imperceptible admiration flashed by and disappeared in an instant. He said faintly, “The formation of the Heavenly Court originated from the nine huge factions of the major chiliocosm.”

“The Nine Heavens shall serve as the court and enslave all living beings. The Heavenly Court is the Nine Heavens!”

The Nine Heavens!

As though he had thought of something, the Martial Dao Prime Body waved his robe and scattered the badges of many people of the Heavenly Court on the ground with different words written on them.

Flame, Blue, Advent, Mystic.

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked, “The names behind these badges are four of the Nine Heavens?”

“That’s right.”

The tomb keeper nodded. “In the middle is Power Heaven, in the east is Blue Heaven, in the northeast is Autumn Heaven, in the north is Mystic Heaven, in the northwest is Nether Heaven, in the west is Advent Heaven, in the southwest is Vermilion Heaven, in the south is Flame Heaven and in the southeast is Illumination Heaven. Together, they make up the Nine Heavens.”

Die Yue was enlightened.

So, the Blue that backed Emperor Azure Flame was Blue Heaven of the Nine Heavens!

“The Nine Heavens shall serve as the court and enslave all living beings.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body murmured softly.

Indeed, Emperor Azure Flame and the other experts did not take the living beings of the ten thousand races of the medium chiliocosm seriously.

This was a kind of contempt that came from the depths of their bones.

The tomb keeper said, “At this point in your cultivation, you should have already guessed that living beings of the ten thousand races can ascend to the major chiliocosm after entering the Emperor realm.”

“However, because of the existence of the Nine Heavens, the medium chiliocosm was isolated from the major chiliocosm and the path for the living beings of the ten thousand races to ascend has been blocked. That was the reason why there were no ascenders in the medium chiliocosm for countless years.”

“This was also the reason why we joined forces with the ancient Great Emperors to conquer the Nine Heavens for the past few eras.”

In the Great Wilderness World, the Martial Dao Prime Body and Die Yue had once discussed the Dao and had indeed speculated about that.

That was because after advancing to the Emperor realm, it was abnormally difficult to increase world power. Source Qi and Source Stones were required.

However, such treasures did not exist in the medium chiliocosm.

In other words, according to the circulation of the laws of Heaven and Earth, after living beings advanced to the Emperor realm, they should head to an environment with Source Qi and Source Stones to cultivate.

That place could only be the major chiliocosm!

“Why?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was silent for a long time before asking in a deep voice, “What’s the benefit of the Nine Heavens enslaving all living beings? Why would the Nine Heavens block the path of the living beings of the ten thousand races to ascension?”

The tomb keeper said, “In the medium chiliocosm, all cultivation resources, including Spirit Qi, Essence Qi and Source Qi, can be called cosmic energy.”

“In this universe, such energy is not endless.”

“Mortals have less than a hundred years of lifespan. After they die, their souls will return to the world and their flesh and blood will dissipate. All energy will return to nature. Some will be absorbed and some will be released. It won’t destroy the balance of the world.”

“However, the existence of cultivators broke this balance.”

As though he had comprehended something, the Martial Dao Prime Body murmured softly, “Therefore, when living beings of the ten thousand races step into a certain cultivation realm and break free from the shackles of the world, they will always attract the Heavenly Tribulation.”

“The stronger the person undergoing the Tribulation Transcendence, the stronger the Heavenly Tribulation attracted. It’s because the Heavenly Dao wants to destroy the ascender and let the power in his body return to the world to restore balance.”

“However, no matter how unsympathetic the heavens are, it will still leave a trace of life for those undergoing the Tribulation Transcendence.”

The tomb keeper nodded and continued, “The living beings of the ten thousand races are constantly cultivating and reproducing. Be it the Immortal Dao or Demon Dao, they have to continuously absorb the Spirit Qi, Essence Qi and Source Qi of the medium chiliocosm to snatch cultivation resources.”

“The higher your cultivation, the longer your lifespan and the more energy you can absorb. The implication of someone with a long lifespan is that he will constantly be absorbing energy without releasing it.”

“In that case, the cultivation resources of the world will gradually dry up. It’s the same for the major chiliocosm.”

When he heard that, the Martial Dao Prime Body was enlightened.

The greatest benefit for the Nine Heavens to cut off the path for the living beings of the ten thousand races to ascend is that they can monopolize the cultivation resources of the major chiliocosm!

That was the reason why the Great Emperors of the ancient era wanted to conquer the Nine Heavens and crush the Heavenly Court to kill their way to the major chiliocosm!

“Since you’re enemies with the Heavenly Court, why did you save Emperor Azure Flame and the other two just now?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked with a frown.

The tomb keeper sized up the Martial Dao Prime Body, as though he wanted to see through his cultivation. A moment later, he shook his head. “With your current combat strength, you shouldn’t have much chance of winning against the few Great Emperors of the Nine Heavens.”

“It’s fine that you killed some of those Mansions Emperors. However, those few young masters with the bloodlines of Sacred Beasts have Dharmic Dao Imprints left behind by Great Emperors.”

“Once you kill any of them, the Great Emperors backing them would be alarmed!”

The Martial Dao Prime Body did not retort.

His Essence Martial Grotto-heaven was not cultivated to become a world yet. Right now, in terms of combat strength, he could already sweep through all experts below the Great Emperor realm.

However, he was indeed not confident against a true Great Emperor.

“That’s strange.”

Suddenly, Die Yue asked, “Empress Yan Luo should be the young mistress of Flame Heaven as well. Why didn’t you appear to stop us when she died?”

“Her? Hehe!”

Suddenly, the tomb keeper laughed. “Even if we kill her, Great Emperor Flame Heaven won’t be able to sense it and won’t be able to avenge her.”

“Oh?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body and Die Yue revealed puzzled expressions and waited for the tomb keeper’s explanation.

Suddenly, the tomb keeper changed the topic and looked at the Martial Dao Prime Body. “You’ve been to Greater Avici before. What have you encountered?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body recalled for a moment before nodding. He said in a deep voice, “During the process, there seemed to be two consciousnesses trapped inside.”

The tomb keeper said, “You should be able to guess that one of the consciousnesses is the Lord of Hell.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body nodded.

Be it the medium chiliocosm or the Hell World, it was rumored that the Lord of Hell had once been suppressed by Great Emperor Infinite back then.

As a result, the Hell World shattered, causing the Great Dao of the world to be incomplete and it was never repaired.

After the tomb keeper said that, he suddenly stopped speaking.

Just as the Martial Dao Prime Body was about to ask, a thought flashed through his mind and he could not help but be shocked when he thought of a possibility!

The Martial Dao Prime Body said slowly, “Are you trying to say that the other consciousness in Greater Avici… is Great Emperor Flame Heaven of the Nine Heavens?”
