Chapters Seven to Eight: New Changes, Is Zhong Shan Enemy St
ing Heavenly Sovereign directly possess me"The last time the Heavenly Tyrant Deity possessed someone, he directly invaded their divine soul power."That's because the Heavenly Sovereign God's power is...Within a certain heaven and earth.
Green mountains and green waters, blue sky and white clouds, it looks quite poetic.
Occasionally.

A giant hornet could be seen flying back and forth in the sky. Below it, there were cities standing tall, with a statue in the center of each city, quietly placed there.
The statue is very large.

It was a full ten or so zhang tall.
The serpent-god, with a human head, coils and writhes.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Suddenly.
The statues trembled all at once, then cracked open at a visible speed.
At this moment...
All cities where the statues crumbled caused a stir.
One by one, powerful figures who had been hiding in seclusion emerged, walking out from their self-imposed confinement and stopping before the stone statues. Their faces were all filled with astonishment.
“The statue is cracked!”
"The idol shattered, the divine spirit has fallen!"
"Quickly report this matter to the superiors, there must be no mistake—"
A middle-aged man with a stern expression and wearing a blue Taoist robe stood before the shattered stone statue, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
The stone statue crumbled.

The meaning of > is already very clear.
Either grievously injured and on the verge of death, or utterly destroyed.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But seriously.
There are still some differences between the two.
Severely injured and close to death, if treated immediately, there might be a chance of survival. As for the latter, there's no way to save him.
Now all the Qīngfēng Clan can do is report this news as quickly as possible. The rest is beyond their control.
“Hope nothing goes wrong!”
He let out a deep sigh.
As a vassal clan of the Zhongshan clan, the Qingfeng clan's very existence was no easy feat.
Now, their belief in the deity Zhōngshānqiú has lasted for several hundred years. If Zhōngshānqiú falls, it means they are about to start worshipping a new deity.
If a wrathful spirit were to take their place, it would be a tribulation for the Green Hornet clan.
It will be very soon.
Message reporting.
The Zhongshan clan was shaken.
As a genius of the Zhongshan clan and a powerhouse at the divine realm level, Zhong Shanchou had the potential to become a god king in the future. Now, he is possibly mortally wounded or even perished outside. Naturally, the Zhongshan clan wouldn't remain completely silent about this.
Almost immediately.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Word came from strong members of the Zhōngshān clan, who began to investigate and search for the whereabouts of Zhōngshān Chú.
No matter what.
The living should see the living, and the dead should see their corpses.
The Zhongshan clan's majesty is absolutely not to be challenged by other races.
On the other side.
Shen Changqing was completely immersed in the changes on his own panel.

This is a test.

Several years passed since the last slaying of a mountain spirit, and the panel once again underwent a change.
When the mind is focused on the source, enlightenment arises in his heart.
> Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
“Demigods and above who kill other races can obtain their essence. Consuming the essence allows them to transform into the appearance of the slain being, inheriting all of their possessions.”
Among them, including strength and memory.
"However, the source also has limitations. It can only be used once, and multiple sources cannot be used simultaneously, otherwise, the latter will replace the stronger one."
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
“Moreover, as long as the source is not voluntarily terminated, the transformed form will remain—”
>
Awesome!
Unparalleled power!
The new features of the panel even shocked Shen Changqing.
To be blunt.
He now possessed Zhong Shanchou's essence. As long as he consumed the essence, he could transform himself into a new Zhong Shanchou, and the other party's strength memory, etc., would all become his own.
This is a function.
It's incredibly powerful, almost frightening.
Just say something simple.
If one were to use Zhongshan Chou's essence now, they would become Zhongshan Chou themselves, and be able to return to the Zhongshan clan, inheriting everything that Zhongshan Chou originally had.
There is no trouble.
...and don't worry about being noticed by other strong people.
At the thought of this.
Then Shen Changqing was moved.
Instead of wasting time and risking harm by trying to gather information ourselves, it would be better to obtain the other party's memories, thus gaining a comprehensive understanding of these matters, before making any further plans.
And—
The text content inside ">" is empty.
There must be many resources within the Zhōngshān clan.
There are two channels to improve one's own strength. The first is to collect killing points, and the second is to have enough resources to forcibly open up secret repositories.
The foregoing.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
When killing Zhong Shan's enemy, no kill value was obtained, which is very likely only available for slaying demons.
Therefore.
What truly relies on is only the latter.
Besides.
If he could leverage the power of the Zhongshan clan, perhaps he wouldn't need to possess the strength of a Divine King realm expert to solve the issue of the demon tribe.
Make a decision.
Shen Changqing didn't hesitate for too long. With a slight movement of his mind, he saw his body change little by little, and soon it turned into the appearance of Zhongshan Chou.
Please note: This response only contains the translated text and retains the HTML tags as instructed.
The whole process.
Less than a breath of time.
"Is this it"
He reached out and touched his own face, then with a surge of power, condensed a mirror. Looking into the mirror, he saw that his reflection was exactly like Zhongshan's enemy.
Then.
His mind entered the sea of consciousness.
In the vast expanse of the empty sea of consciousness, a golden flame flickered silently.
Hearts and minds touched.
A flood of memories surged forth from the flames, like a film reel flashing by, everything about Zhong Shanchou's past was laid bare before Shen Changqing's eyes.
For a moment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He withdrew from that wave of memory shock, just then letting out a breath.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
"I see!"
Zhong Shan's revenge!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Zhongshan Clan's genius, born seven hundred years ago, ascended to the Divine Realm five hundred years ago. Now he is a powerful figure at the third level of the Divine Realm, with prospects of reaching the Divine King realm in the future.
At the same time.
The Zhongshan clan is also a powerful clan, possessing several God King realm experts.
Moreover, the Zhongshan clan was not Zhong Shanchou's true tribal name. His real tribal name was the Zhuyin Clan.
Only after the first powerful figure of the Candle Shadow Clan ascended to the realm of God King was he known as Zhong Shan. From then on, the Candle Shadow Clan became known as the Zhong Shan clan.
So-called clan.
Only those who are at the Divine King realm or whose race has produced a Divine King are qualified to call themselves a clan.
>
But.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Clan names are not always passed down through generations.
When a race has any being stronger than a god realm, the former titles no longer exist, and they can only call themselves by their original clan name.
Below the clan.
It is the strong clan.
Amongst the myriad races of the heavens and earth, there are countless clans, and powerful clans number in the uncountable.
The Clumsy Clan, originally slaughtered by Zhong Shan, was just one among many powerful clans.
Of course.
Not all races that have produced God King realm existences become clans. Some races, even if they have produced a God King, continue to be known by their original race name. Such races do not have a clan designation.
However.
Although this race is not a clan, its strength should not be underestimated.
Besides.
Some clans may have fallen, and in terms of strength, they may not be as good as some powerful clans.
In the myriad realms, judging a clan's strength solely by its name or affiliation with powerful clans is the most arbitrary method.
Like the demonic clans of the Death Forbidden Zone, they were once a race that had possessed a God-King but chose not to name themselves after him.
A little bit of receiving Zhong Shan Chou's memories.
At the same time.
He also deeply understood that among all the celestial races, there were truly countless powerful beings.
Even a single Zongshen clan boasts five powerhouses at the God King realm.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!
While clans like the Zhong Shan clan are not particularly powerful among the myriad races of the heavens.
>
And.
From the other party's memories, Shen Changqing also understood why there were no human beings in the heavens.
It turns out that the human race was completely wiped out countless millennia ago, and it was even the enemy of all races in heaven and earth. Whenever a human appeared, all races would unite to attack them.
I received this message.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing's face was a little unsightly.
"The situation for humanity is far worse than I imagined!"
I thought that in all the heavens, either humans had never appeared, or they had appeared before but were wiped out for some reason.
But.
He had absolutely not expected that the human race would be hated by all the celestial races.
It's imaginable.
If news of the human race's heaven and earth were to be exposed, what kind of consequences would it bring about
“No!”
"The existence of the human race absolutely cannot be exposed!"
“Right now, there’s no news from the human race among the Zhongshan clan. It seems that other races are also unaware of the human race's existence. That is to say, besides the demon race, other races don't know about a human world existing within the Death Forbidden Zone.”
In this way, as long as the demon clan is eradicated, the possibility of the human race being exposed will be greatly reduced!
Shen Changqing's eyes were slightly cold.
All the myriad races of the heavens would attack as a united force. Let alone the existence at the God King realm, even those above the God King realm, I fear they wouldn't be able to protect the human race.
Under such circumstances, the only way to ensure the safety of the human race is to eliminate all beings who know of the existence of the knowledgeable people.
That's all.
The demonic clan's strength is not weak now.
Relying solely on oneself, there's no way to eradicate it.
Meanwhile.
The demonic clan hasn't revealed the secrets of the human world, they must have other intentions.
All he had to do was quietly accumulate strength, delivering a fatal blow to the demon clan at the crucial moment. But before that, he absolutely could not reveal any hint of his plan.
If the premise is discovered by the demon clan, or they feel pressure, the demon clan is very likely to break the jar and completely expose the existence of the human world.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Such a result was not what Shen Changqing wanted.
My chest heaved, I forced my mind to calm down, and then I continued to examine the changes in myself.
Obtain the origin of Zhōngshān Qiú.
His current surface strength is already equivalent to the third level of the Divine Realm.
But.
There's also a glaring flaw here, namely the inability to utilize its own inherent power.
Otherwise.
The transformation of the source will then be undone.
In other words, once one uses their own power, they can no longer pretend to be Zhong Shan Chou and will return to their original form.
"Even so, my physical advantage still exists. In terms of physique, I am much stronger than the original Zhong Shanqiu. Even if I can only use the power of the third level of the Divine Realm, this Divine Realm third level is not comparable to an ordinary Divine Realm third level."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Shen Changqing thought to himself.
However.
After gaining memories, he also understood that the strength of countless races in the heavens and myriad worlds could not be simply compared based on their cultivation realm.
Some races possess powerful innate abilities, with transcending ranks being just an everyday occurrence.
That's all.
The Dark Abyss of the Zhongshan clan alone, once unleashed, could even trip up a mid-stage Divine Realm expert if they weren't careful.
The so-called intermediate stage of the divine realm.
That represents a category from the fourth to sixth level of the Divine Realm.
In the realm of gods.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Is divided into four orders and ten layers.
Every three layers there is one level, and the last layer is complete.
Zhong Shanqiu was at the third level of the Divine Realm, considered a top expert among the initial stage. However, he possessed innate divine abilities, and his overall strength was not inferior to that of ordinary mid-level Divine Realm experts.
That's it.
Shen Changqing was naturally satisfied.
The stronger Zhong Shanchou's strength, the more beneficial it is for him.
"Speaking of..."
"If I could one day calculate the strength of a God King realm expert, wouldn't that mean I could directly wield the power of a God King realm expert!"
His eyes flashed.
Based on the information provided by the panel, this is actually possible.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
If that's the case.
He could master the power of a God King in advance.
Just thinking about it, Shen Changqing temporarily abandoned this idea.
To obtain the essence of a Divine King realm, it wouldn't be so easy.
Before Zhong Shan slaughtered the powerful members of the Zuan clan, he didn't receive any source power himself. This proves that relying on others for help is not possible.
No piggybacking on assists.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Considering the gap between myself and the God King, there's obviously no chance of success.
Even a heavily injured God King, he doubted if he was his opponent.
Then.
Shen Changqing continued to focus his attention on the golden flame within his sea of consciousness.
Divine fire!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
That is the divine fire ignited when ascending to the realm of divine beings.
With the soul as its foundation and faith as its fuel, it ignites the divine fire to communicate with heaven.
Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!
That can be said.
That was the foundation of all divine realm powerhouses, and also the basis for opening up a divine nation in the future.
Once the divine fire is extinguished.
>
Now.
Although Zhongshan Chou has fallen, the essence of divine fire has been plundered. Possessing this divine fire means one can continue to draw upon their former opponent's faith, and simultaneously use that faith to enhance the divine fire itself.
That is to say.
Even if he doesn't recover his full self, Shen Changqing can gradually improve his strength by relying on divine fire and faith.
Of course.
Whether or not to improve his skills is not important to him.
>
But having divine fire and being able to continue receiving the power of faith means that there is no possibility of exposure.
That way.
Blending in with the Zhongshan clan is quite easy.
Thinking about this.
Shen Changqing was very satisfied.
The only difference was that he obtained all of Zhōng Shān Chú's memories, including the martial arts techniques he had seen and practiced, but there was no reflection of it on his panel.
This is inside.
Whether it's the outsider's martial arts that are not recorded, or the martial arts in the original memory that are not recorded, it remains unknown for now.
Then.

He turned his gaze to the snake's corpse and then condensed a ball of flame in his palm, dropping it onto it.
Suddenly.
The flames burned fiercely, and the serpent's corpse melted away at a visible speed.
Divine fire can melt anything, the more powerful the divine fire, the more it can melt. For example, destroying a corpse like Zhōng Shān Chóu's is nothing difficult.
After destroying the body and evidence.
Shen Changqing then focused his attention on the chasing void shuttle beneath him.
Fifth Rank Dao Soldiers!
A strong warrior of the Zhōngshān Clan bestowed it, and later it was recognized by Zhōngshān's enemy.
Now that I have obtained the other party's origin, this fifth-rank Dao weapon is now mine.
Then.
And he once again got hold of the divine fragments of Zhong Shanchou's kingdom, a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"Divine Kingdom fragments can be used as fuel for divine fire, and they can increase the probability of a perfected Divine Realm expert successfully opening their own Divine Kingdom. This is a valuable item. Even if I don't need it, it would be a good resource to exchange for other things."
Rather than raising divine fire, why not open up a secret vault
That's all I have to say.
Its own essence is merely a temporary use of the other's origin, it has never truly belonged to itself. Even if it reaches the level of God King, there will come a day when it must be abandoned.
The most fundamental approach is to improve oneself.

Now.
There was a ring, which appeared in Shen Changqing's hand.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Storage ring.
Something that only existed in his memory is now a reality, which is somewhat moving.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But after thinking about it, I feel like it's normal.
Amongst the myriad races across the heavens, powerful beings are plentiful. It's not strange at all that someone would create a storage ring.
Fits perfectly on the right hand.
His divine sense landed on the ring, and a space no less grand than the Hall of Conclave in the Demon Suppression Division appeared within Shen Changqing's perception.
>
The space was particularly spacious. Apart from some spiritual materials, there was nothing else.
Then.
He then put the fragment of the Divine Kingdom into it, and his mind withdrew once more.
Power infusion.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The Chasing Sky Shuttle dashed through the void, already far from here.
Although the Forbidden Zone of Death is where a God King fell, there must be fragments of a Divine Country inside. But now that the Tide of Death has not stopped, venturing in recklessly could very likely result in your demise.
For safety's sake.
It's probably best not to take that risk.
Among the qingfeng clan.
When Shen Changqing used his source power, the fragmented statues actually began to repair themselves piece by piece. Soon, they were fully restored to their original state.
A sudden change.
Let the strong warriors of the Green Hornet clan be astonished.
“Could it be that the one didn’t perish, but was merely grievously wounded Now that the statue has been restored, does this indicate their injuries have fully healed”
The stern-faced middle-aged man saw this scene and was taken aback for a moment, then he let out a big sigh of relief.
The statue has been restored.
There's only one explanation: the other side hasn't fallen.
For the Praying Mantis clan, this is a good thing.
>
If that one hadn't fallen, they wouldn't have to replace the deity with a new one. In that case, there would be no need to worry about any disturbances caused by the Qīngfēng clan.
"Report to the higher-ups that the statue has been restored."
The middle-aged man immediately ordered.
Upon hearing this.
A powerful member of the Qīngfēng clan took a jade talisman from their bosom and crushed it.

In the undulating mountains, palaces stand majestically among the peaks. An awe-inspiring presence pervades the mountain range, deterring most creatures from venturing within.

This is the territory of the Zhongshan clan—Zhuzong.
Here is the text in English:
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Hall of the Candle Sect.
A middle-aged man in a light golden robe, his whole body shrouded in a faint golden glow, sat there with an air of majesty. Below him were other powerful figures, each with a solemn expression, seated on either side.
"Have there been any developments regarding the matter of Zhong Shan's revenge"
A majestic voice echoed through the hall, like the sound of heaven itself, causing the very space to tremble slightly.
And that's all.
A white-haired, aged man with a withered look slowly spoke: "The celestial mechanisms are in disarray, making it impossible to divine the future. However, according to my sources, Zhong Shanchou is going to Death Forbidden Zone for training this time."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Recently, news came that a death tide appeared again in the Forbidden Zone, and even a God King was stained with blood.
Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!
If my guess is correct, he likely perished in the Death Tide. If so, it's not surprising that we can't calculate his fate.
The Death Zone itself is inherently enigmatic and unpredictable, making even the slightest prediction during ordinary times impossible.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated! I'm happy to help.
When the tide of death arrives, not even the Death Zone can be calculated. Even a million miles outside the Death Zone, heaven's strikes are in disarray and cannot be predicted at all.
And that's it.
Another powerful figure spoke up: "The Death Tide is terrifying. The God Kings bleed. One Divine Realm being trapped within it has absolutely no chance of survival. Judging by this, there shouldn't be any problem with Zhong Shanqiu's demise."
After his demise, the faith that the Green Hornet clan had held would need to be discussed and allocated.
Speaking of faith.
The other powerhouses in the main hall all had a flicker of movement in their eyes.
For any powerhouse at the level of a divine realm or higher, faith is absolutely crucial. The amount of faith one has determines the strength of their power growth.
Please note that I only translated the text content within the tags. The HTML tags themselves remain unchanged.
Even the powerful Zhongshan clan, with their faith-based strength in hand, is limited.
Now.

When a divine realm falls, the vacant faith it leaves behind becomes a delicacy.
This is a text snippet within paragraph tags.
Upon hearing this.
The oldest man spoke first, "Sect Leader, Yan'er has reached the Divine Realm in less than three hundred years, and is already at the third level of the Divine Realm. If he can obtain some more faith power, his hope of advancing to the God King will be greatly increased in the future. Therefore, this old man hopes—"
>
"Hey, Elder Two is joking. Zhong Shan Yan has a good talent, but the power of faith he controls is already several times that of other divine realms. If he increases it by a little more, it would be too embarrassing, wouldn't it"
The strong ones sneered.
The following content is translated into English:
Upon hearing this.
The Second Elder looked at the other with cold eyes.
"A genius should rightfully be entitled to preferential treatment. It's a true waste if such a belief is applied to mediocre individuals."
"You—"
That powerful person glared.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!
Other powerful figures' eyes flickered, each lost in their own thoughts, but none dared to interject.
At this time.
Light streamed out from beyond the palace.
The headmaster of the Zhuzong sect held onto Liuguang, and in his hand appeared a phantom of a jade talisman.
Upon seeing this.
Whether it was the Second Elder or other strong individuals, they all remained silent.
Jade talisman transmission.
It seems like there's some news again.
After a while.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The jade talisman's illusory shadow dissipated.
The solemn voice of the Candle Sect's master echoed, "There's no need to argue about what the Qingfeng clan believes in. Just now, news arrived that the shattered deity statue has been restored and Zhong Shanchou hasn't perished."
And then, she fell silent.
This is a placeholder for text.
Many strong individuals' faces paled.
Zhong Shanqiu is not dead
So the argument before this, wouldn't have meant anything at all.
