857: Chapter 858 Celestial Powers
Gu Changge stood with his hands behind his back, his white robes spotless. The surging Dao might of his third-tier Heavenly Venerate cultivation was completely restrained. Though he appeared ordinary and plain, he possessed a Supreme foundation capable of suppressing the heavens.
His eyes lowered slightly as a massive amount of information, extracted from Heavenly King Chi Xiao's Divine Soul memory, flashed rapidly through his mind.
Scenes and information regarding the territories, cultivation Realms, and top forces of the Heaven Realm unfolded with absolute clarity.
Tianshu Dojo!
The mastermind behind the scenes to whom Heavenly King Chi Xiao swore loyalty was actually a Supreme powerhouse who had reached the ninth-tier Heavenly Venerate, an existence standing at the very Peak of the Heavenly Venerate Realm.
This person was the Sovereign of the Tianshu Dojo, ruling over the vast and boundless territories of the Heaven Realm, holding the authority of countless orthodoxies, and standing high above.
Looking down upon billions of living beings, he was one of the true top giants of the Heaven Realm.
In the past, Gu Changge lived in the Lower Realm, where all the opponents he met were mere ants. He had always had only a vague, superficial understanding of the layout of the vast Heaven Realm.
But now, through Heavenly King Chi Xiao's memories, he had finally completely lifted the veil of mystery surrounding the Heaven Realm, gaining a thorough and profound understanding of the power System of this Supreme Domain.
The Heaven Realm was vast and boundless, its territory far exceeding that of the Immortal Realm by countless times.
Even someone as strong as Heavenly King Chi Xiao had not traversed even one-tenth of the Heaven Realm in tens of millions of years.
Within the Heaven Realm, powerhouses stood like trees in a forest, orthodoxies were everywhere, and the Realm levels were clearly defined with strict barriers.
The Heaven-Reaching Realm was the most common in the vast Heaven Realm, to be found everywhere.
Only in the Heavenly Monarch Realm would one have the strength to establish a foothold, guard a region of mountains and rivers, and rule over a territory, earning the title of a local hegemon.
In ordinary Sects, they were already the top combat power.
And the Heavenly King Realm was already among the high-end combat forces of the Heaven Realm.
Those who could cultivate to the Peak of the Heavenly King Realm were, without exception, peerless powerhouses who had experienced ten thousand battles and possessed deep foundations, enough to hold important positions in the major forces of the Heaven Realm.
They could dominate a region and command respect. Just like Heavenly King Chi Xiao, they could become the trusted confidants of Heavenly Venerate powerhouses, deterring an entire region.
Only the Heavenly Venerate Realm could truly stand at the top of the Heaven Realm, transcending mortal disputes, possessing Supreme Dao Rhyme, and taking charge of the rules of a portion of heaven and earth.
Countless Heavenly Venerate forces were scattered and entrenched throughout the Heaven Realm, dividing territories and controlling Sects, Star Domains, and orthodoxies of all sizes.
Holding the power of life and death over the heavens, they were the core force maintaining the structure of the Heaven Realm, holding an esteemed status above tens of millions of people.
But the Heavenly Venerate was still not the end of the Heaven Realm.
Above the ninth-tier Heavenly Venerate, there existed an even more ethereal and terrifying Supreme Realm—the Supreme.
This was the Supreme Domain that Heavenly King Chi Xiao had spent tens of millions of years unable to touch or even catch a glimpse of.
In Heavenly King Chi Xiao's memory, there was very little information about the Supreme, with only scattered ancient rumors that were obscure yet soul-shaking.
Once one stepped into the Supreme Realm, they could break free from the shackles of time, escape the wear of Reincarnation, achieve an eternally immortal body, and coexist with heaven and earth.
Those forces that had birthed Supreme powerhouses, or were guarded and passed down by a Supreme, were the top immortal orthodoxies of the Heaven Realm.
The foundations of these immortal orthodoxies were unfathomably deep, their Legacies spanning across eternal ages, looking down upon the myriad worlds of heaven and earth, and ignoring worldly disputes.
They rarely appeared in the world, hiding in the Secret Realms of the Heaven Realm and the depths of Chaos, not participating in territorial disputes, nor intervening in the slaughters of the heavens.
Yet, relying on their deep orthodox foundations, they were enough to deter the entire Heaven Realm, and no one dared to easily provoke them.
As for whether there were stronger beings above the Supreme, there were only vague rumors in Heavenly King Chi Xiao's memory, which could not be verified.
Gu Changge's eyes darkened slightly. Having now made a Breakthrough to the third-tier Heavenly Venerate, he seemed to have leaped across several major Realms in one step, his combat power crowning his region.
But looking at the entire vast Heaven Realm, he still could not be considered truly top-tier.
The Sovereign of the Tianshu Dojo, a ninth-tier Heavenly Venerate, was the first top opponent he needed to face head-on.
"Master."
Beside him, Heavenly King Chi Xiao stood bowed, his aura gradually stabilizing. The slave imprint within his Divine Soul lay dormant and stable, his heart filled with absolute reverence.
Sensing a slight shift in Gu Changge's emotions, he spoke softly, taking the initiative to report:
"The Tianshu Dojo has complex forces, and the Sovereign's methods are unpredictable. Under his command, besides myself, there are several Heavenly Venerate Hall Masters and dozens of Heavenly King powerhouses.
Their forces are spread across various regions of the Heaven Realm. Among the many Heavenly Venerate forces in the Heaven Realm, they belong to the top orthodoxies."
The Black-Robed Man, who had also been implanted with a Divine Soul imprint, hurriedly bowed his head in trembling submission, not daring to make any movement, and quietly waited aside.
Gu Changge fell silent for a moment.
He glanced at his cultivation value on the System panel, which was almost depleted, and recalled the information about the Heaven Realm in Heavenly King Chi Xiao's memory.
Ninth-tier Heavenly Venerate, Supreme, immortal orthodoxies...
High and mighty, towering through the ages.
While he, a third-tier Heavenly Venerate, had his cultivation value reset to zero.
Gu Changge suddenly felt a bit insecure.
The Heaven Realm was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, with countless top powerhouses lurking everywhere. What if they all suddenly came knocking on his door one day?
Although he could remain undefeated by relying on his Invincible Domain or Invincible Experience Card, it was not a long-term solution.
With a thought, he called out in his heart, "System, come out and chat."
"Ding! Host, please speak!"
The familiar mechanical prompt sounded in his Sea of Consciousness right on time, and Gu Changge got straight to the point:
"Upgrading my cultivation in the Heaven Realm consumes cultivation value too quickly. Is there any way to quickly increase it?"
The System fell silent for a brief moment before its voice sounded again:
"The rapid consumption of cultivation value is because the difference in combat power and energy between each Realm in the Heaven Realm is too vast. This is normal consumption."
Gu Changge raised an eyebrow, unsatisfied with this answer. He sank his consciousness into the System space, his gaze sweeping over the many Supreme treasures floating quietly within.
The dense and swirling hongmeng purple qi was rich and vast, flowing with the Origin aura of the creation of heaven and earth.
The simple and heavy Pangu Essence Blood shone brightly, harboring the Supreme power of splitting heaven and earth.
There were also various ancient divine materials, Dao Ancestor Origin, the Fortune Jade Plate, and other rare treasures, each of which was a Supreme Opportunity enough to make the Heavenly Venerates of the Heaven Realm fight madly for them.
Every single one of these items contained an unimaginably vast amount of energy. If refined, it would probably be even faster than signing in.
His eyes flickered slightly. "If all else fails, I'll just refine these things."
"Ding! Host, please think twice! The hongmeng purple qi and Pangu Essence Blood are both Origin treasures from the beginning of heaven and earth, containing boundless and vast energy.
With the Host's current Physical Body and Divine Soul at the third-tier Heavenly Venerate level, forcibly refining them would likely burst your dao foundation, causing more harm than good."
"Then what do you suggest I do?"
"Ding! It is recommended that the Host head to the Heaven Realm.
The Great Dao level of the Heaven Realm far exceeds that of the Lower Realm. The heaven and earth Origin is dense and rich, and the Dao laws are complete and flourishing.
By signing in at any location in the Heaven Realm, the Host can unlock high-tier rewards.
You can stably obtain massive cultivation, insights into Heavenly Venerate Dao laws, Origin treasures, Heavenly Dao fortune, and other rare Opportunities. The reward quality and amplification effects are far superior to those of the Lower Realm."
"In addition, Host, you can take in disciples for plenty of rewards!"
Gu Changge remained silent for a moment, then sighed softly.
"Alright, I understand."
He exited the System space, opened his eyes, and looked toward that distant territory of the Heaven Realm in the depths of Chaos.
