53: Chapter 53 The Creation of the Heavenly Court and the Inheritance of the Sages

"Young Master, since you intend to establish a sect in the Demonic Mist Forest Sea, have you thought of a name?" Huang Tianyu asked.

"A name!!" Chu Chen hadn't actually thought about that!!

"Xiao Huang, since these disciples will be recruited in your name, why don't you come up with the name!!"

Hearing this, Huang Tianyu thought for a moment. "Young Master is such a peerless genius; the sect's name should naturally be domineering."

"Since the inner region has the Underworld, how about we call it the Heavenly Court?"

"It would even suppress them in terms of momentum."

"Heavenly Court!!"

"That's a pretty good name. Fine, then it shall be called the Heavenly Court," Chu Chen responded.

A black scripture appeared in Chu Chen's hand and drifted toward Huang Tianyu.

"This technique is called the Demon Devouring Scripture. Anyone who joins the Heavenly Court may learn it."

"This technique contains the great fortune of heaven and earth. Those who reach great completion can continuously seize others' bodies to increase their cultivation."

Huang Tianyu's pupils shrank suddenly. He couldn't help but think, why would the Young Master, a genius from a major power, give such an evil technique?

If this technique were in other sect holy lands of the Xuan Province, it would surely be classified as an evil art, and anyone practicing it would definitely be hunted down by various major powers.

However, in the Demonic Mist Forest Sea, it didn't matter much.

"Yes, Young Master!!"

"This subordinate will go and spread the word throughout the outer region of the Demonic Mist Forest Sea to recruit disciples for the Heavenly Court."

With those words, Huang Tianyu withdrew.

Chu Chen didn't plan to idle for the next few days. He prepared to consolidate his cultivation and techniques; only one's own strength is the hard truth.

Now, the Demon God Visualization Method had broken through to the second layer, and the third layer wasn't far off.

As for the Divine Firmament Demon Finger, the first finger, the Mountain Shattering Finger, had reached perfection. Chu Chen felt he only needed a little more time.

He would surely be able to successfully comprehend the second finger of the Divine Firmament Demon Finger, the Earth Finger.

Deep within the Demonic Mist Forest Sea, a massive change occurred.

A purple light, carrying a terrifying aura, swept across the world in all directions.

Suddenly, visions appeared across the sky as three withered and dilapidated golden lotuses manifested.

A holy aura enveloped the entire Demonic Mist Forest Sea.

Below, the entire ground began to vibrate. With a loud boom, the earth split open, and countless dilapidated buildings emerged from the ground.

The ancient aura clearly showed that the buildings before them were traces left behind from countless ages ago.

Looking down from above, one would find that these dilapidated buildings formed a fallen sect left behind after being eroded by time.

Such a vision naturally attracted the attention of the entire Demonic Mist Forest Sea.

This holy yet terrifying aura caused the cultivators of the Demonic Mist Forest Sea to speculate whether a heaven-defying immortal treasure had emerged.

Within the Demonic Mist Forest Sea, cultivators from both the outer and inner regions rushed toward the depths.

The Underworld.

A middle-aged man with purple-gold eyes looked up at the three golden lotuses in the sky.

"The vision of the Three Flowers Gathering at the Peak of a Saint. I didn't expect a Saint Inheritance to emerge within the Demonic Mist Forest Sea."

"It seems the Demonic Mist Forest Sea will not be peaceful for a while."

The middle-aged man's purple-gold eyes seemed able to pierce through the void. In an instant, the space before him shattered, transforming into a spatial tunnel.

As the middle-aged man stepped inside, the shattered space closed instantly.

Blood Spirit Sect, Extreme Demon Sect, Corpse Blood Sect.

The masters of these three major sects also rushed toward the depths of the Demonic Mist Forest Sea.

The outer region.

A piece of heavy news spread throughout the Demonic Mist Forest Sea.

"Have you heard? The Puppet Demon Lord is establishing a sect in our outer region and is widely inviting cultivators from the Demonic Mist Forest Sea's outer region to join."

"When did this happen? How come I didn't know? But the Puppet Demon Lord is a Great Demonic Cultivator of the eighth level of the Dragon Transformation Realm."

"And with the supreme treasure in his hands, the Blood Puppet, even a mighty expert at the first level of the Divine Fire Realm would find it hard to kill him. It can be said that this Puppet Demon Lord is an invincible existence within the Dragon Transformation Realm."

"If we can join his sect, it would be considered a form of protection for us within this Demonic Mist Forest Sea."

"What's the name of the Puppet Demon Lord's sect? I'm going to join right now," a demonic cultivator said excitedly.

"It seems to be called... the Heavenly Court!!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the demonic cultivator who had asked gasped in shock.

"Heavenly Court!!! What a domineering name. The inner region has the Underworld, yet this Puppet Demon Lord actually dares to name it the Heavenly Court."

"The Heavenly Court stands in the heavens, while the Underworld is on the ground. Isn't this clearly showing the Heavenly Court suppressing the Underworld?"

"Isn't the Puppet Demon Lord afraid that if the Underworld finds out, they'll wipe him out?"

"What's there to fear? I heard that anyone who joins the Heavenly Court can obtain a peerless technique."

"I'm going for it. I'm alone in this Demonic Mist Forest Sea anyway. I might as well join the Heavenly Court and get a technique."

The news of the Heavenly Court releasing a powerful technique quickly spread through the inner region.

Even disciples from the inner region learned of the Heavenly Court's existence.

At Chu Chen's cultivation site, he was currently emitting a profound and mysterious aura.

Immortal light permeated his surroundings, making him look like a banished immortal descending to the mortal world, holy and inviolable.

Boom!

The sky changed abnormally, as roars and cries echoed from above.

In the next instant, the phantoms of the Four Great Sacred Beasts—the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise—condensed into being.

A holy aura lingered within a hundred-mile radius.

Chu Chen's eyes snapped open; his pupils had now turned gold.

"Congratulations, Chu Xiaozi! You've successfully comprehended another vision," Ming Yuan said.

"However, during your recent seclusion, a Saint Inheritance has emerged in the Demonic Mist Forest Sea."

"A Saint Inheritance?! How long was I in seclusion?" Chu Chen asked.

"Exactly three months. In ten more days, the Blood Induction Curse on you will be eliminated. At that time, Chu Xiaozi, your strength can reach another level."

"Three months? Doesn't that mean the Saint Inheritance has long been taken by someone else?!" Chu Chen frowned.

"Chu Xiaozi, do you really think a Saint Inheritance is that easy to take? Do you know what a Saint is?"

"At the level of a Saint, one has completely transcended the scope of a cultivator and can brand their own Great Dao into the void."

"They are immortal and indestructible existences. Aside from time being able to erode them, even another Saint cannot kill a Saint."

"A Saint Inheritance is even more inaccessible to those without great fortune. Unless someone else in the Saint Realm takes action, it's impossible to open the restrictions set by a Saint."

"And even if the restrictions are forcibly opened, one might not necessarily obtain the Saint Inheritance."

"Furthermore, I see that the Saint vision hasn't dissipated yet; the Saint Inheritance hasn't been opened."

"Since it hasn't been opened, doesn't that mean this Saint Inheritance is waiting for me to take it?" Chu Chen said indifferently.

"Hey, hey, hey!!! Chu Xiaozi, you're being too overconfident. That is a Saint Inheritance."

"No matter how peerless your talent is, if you don't gain its recognition, you won't be able to obtain the Saint Inheritance," Ming Yuan mocked lightly.

Immortal light surged around Chu Chen as he said domineeringly, "If even I, Chu Chen, cannot obtain it, then who else in this world is qualified to obtain this Saint Inheritance."

At the same time, various major powers in the Xuan Province sensed the emergence of the Saint Inheritance and dispatched their disciples to the Demonic Mist Forest Sea to seize it.
