Chapters One Hundred and Thirteen to One Hundred and Fourtee
hat the Eighth Rank Dao Soldiers are of great use to all God Kings.If a God King possesses an eight-rank Dao weapon, his strength may not be much weaker than two God Kings of the same level who do not...Zhong Shan Dong Xuan nodded.
Upon hearing this.
The old man looked at everyone again, then paused his gaze on Xia Shanxia: "Since our last parting, Xia Wa'er has grown quite a bit. This time entering the Sealing God Platform, she should be able to perform well."
"Greetings, old friend!"
Zhong Shanxia's face, rarely showing such respect, wore a trace of it.
It's obvious that he knows the identity of the old man in front of him.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But the other disciples present were all at a loss.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Work hard, for the Zhongshan clan has been dormant for too long. Perhaps in your generation, we can rise again!"
The old man smiled faintly, then shifted his gaze from Xia Shan Zhong to each of his disciples, as if trying to see through them.
When his gaze fell upon Shen Changqing.
He stopped.
His clouded eyes seemed to clear by two points, and a hint of emotion appeared on his face that was usually as still as an ancient well.
"This kid's eyes have something to them, perhaps—"
>
“Not long ago, my Zhongshan clan clashed with the Du Shan clan. A genius emerged on the void battlefield and comprehended the Eye of Time.”
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan said in a deep voice.
Behold, the eye of time!
Upon hearing this name, a spark ignited in the old man's eyes, and for the first time, a smile graced his wrinkled face.
"Well well, what a delightful surprise! After countless eons, my clan has finally produced another child who has grasped the Eye of Time!"
His voice was a little excited, his fingers trembling slightly.
A moment later.
The old man's heart calmed a few points, and he shook his head again: "It's a pity, this child's foundation is too weak now, and he still needs to be tempered well. If he can reach the Divine King Realm in the future, let him come to my place again."
>
"Good!"
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan nodded.
Then I'll take them with me.
"Well, go on... Oh, by the way, what's your name, little one"
The old man moved aside, and as Shen Changqing passed by, he suddenly spoke.
Upon hearing this.
Chen Changqing was startled for a moment, but still replied truthfully, "Junior Chen Zhanshan!"
“Zhongshan Enemy... uh, this old man remembers. Go ahead.”
The old man repeated himself a few times, then fell silent.
Upon seeing this.
Although Shen Changqing was puzzled, he didn't ask too much and followed Zhong Shandonghuan.
The cave passage is very long.
It took almost half a quarter of an hour before we truly arrived at the cave's exit.
When he walked out, Shen Changqing suddenly discovered that the cave's exit was actually inside a magnificent palace.
The palace was thousands of feet high, more like a small city than a single building. The beams and pillars that supported it were also incredibly thick, like giant sky-reaching columns.
Above the palace hall, there are stairs leading to a golden throne at the top.
Besides.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The palace hall was not overly decorated.
But even so, it still gave him a strong sense of oppression.
Looking back on his memories of Zhongshan's enmity, Shen Changqing still couldn't understand where this place was.
At this moment.
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan said, "This is the main hall of my clan. My clan's emperor holds meetings here, and ordinary clan members are not qualified to set foot here."
Main Hall!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Hearing this, Shen Changqing's heart suddenly became clear.
This must be the main hall of the Zhongshan clan.
Although Zhong Shan Chou was a member of the Zhong Shan clan, his cultivation level wasn't particularly high when he stayed with the clan. He later joined the Zhu Chong Sect.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
The main hall of the Zhōngshān clan has never been involved in anything.
This way.
It's perfectly normal that no corresponding information can be found in memory.
At this time.
A middle-aged man walked in from outside the hall and bowed respectfully to Zhong Shan Dongxuan.
"I have seen the Eastern Profound God King!"
“No need for formalities.” Zhong Shan Dongxuan's expression was calm: “I’ve brought the talented individuals chosen by Zhu Zong this time, and I leave their arrangements to you now.”
“The god king’s order must be obeyed.”
That person's voice was still respectful.
Zhong Shan Dong Xuan nodded slightly, then turned and left, re-entering the corridor.
As he departed, the middle-aged man also straightened up and looked at Shen Changqing and the others with a smile: "I am Zhang Chong from Zhongshan, the seventh in ranking among the clan elders."
That's all I have to say.
He then turned his gaze to Xia Xia of Zhongshan.
"Elder Xia, you don't need me to arrange your affairs, do you"
"No trouble."
>
Zhong Shan's summer voice was calm.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Hearing this, Zhong Shan Chang Hong smiled.
>
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Zhong Shanxia's name resounded both within the Zhuzong and within the Zhongshan clan.
As someone powerful enough to be Elder Candle Sect, their status within the clan was already not low.
So.
He was quite familiar with Zhong Shanxia.
After Zhōngshān Xiā went away on his own, Zhōngshān Chánghóng said to everyone again: "Follow me!"
Those who can enter the heavens, any race is a solitary existence that occupies its own piece of heaven.
The Zhōngshān clan could have a rules-governing Shenwang, existing in at least a Zhongqian heaven and earth, possibly even a Dajian heaven and earth.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
As far back as Zhong Shanqiu's memory went, Shen Changqing already had a certain understanding of the Zhongshan clan.
And I was awestruck by the immensity of the ancient continent.
Now, when I see a vast expanse of heaven and earth, there is not much shock left.
"You all come from the clans, so I needn't introduce you too much. Your purpose is to go to the Divine Ascension Platform and vie for luck for our clan."
So this time the place I'm going to, you should be more unfamiliar with it.
A long boat passed across the heavens, on it stood Zhong Shan Chang Hong with a faint smile on his face.
He didn't use a teleportation formation and directly brought Shen Changqing and the others there because it wasn't necessary.
Although heaven and earth are vast.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But at the speed of Dao soldiers, it wouldn't take much time to reach there.
These clansmen from the Candle Sect have always stayed in the Ancient Continent, and they rarely return to their clan every few hundred years. Now, this is a good opportunity for them to deepen their impression of the clan.
That's how it's done.
There are only benefits, no drawbacks.
Zhong Shanhai somehow came up with a folding fan, and like a scholar-official, he gently waved it: "I dare to ask Elder Seven, where are we going"
Upon hearing this.
All the other disciples were listening intently, eager to hear his response.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
The place you are going to is the heavenly realm.
"Celestial Domain"
Everyone looked puzzled. The name was completely unfamiliar to them.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Zhong Shan Chang Hong said: "Tian Yu is a secret realm independently opened up by our clan. In the past, only powerful individuals who had made great achievements were qualified to enter Tian Yu."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Every opening of the Celestial Realm consumes a massive amount of resources. Even with the vast reserves of my Zhongshan clan, it cannot be opened frequently.
"Therefore, the number of times that can truly open up the celestial realm is actually not many.”
He spoke and fell silent.
He paused for a moment, then continued.
"Under normal circumstances, you wouldn't have a chance to enter the Heavenly Domain. But this time, the Sealing God Platform is opening in an extraordinary way. You were able to stand out from hundreds of thousands of disciples in the Candle Sect, so I believe you all possess great potential."
That is why one is qualified to enter the celestial realm.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
But—
"Entering the Heavenly Domain doesn't mean you can stay there forever. How long you can remain in the Heavenly Domain depends entirely on your own abilities!"
Jongshan Chang Hong said this, deliberately selling a mystery, shutting his mouth.
No matter how others asked, he just smiled without answering.
... while the other party is explaining.
Shen Changqing listened intently while using the long boat to look down at the scene below.
It's similar to the Ancient Continent.
>
Within the Zhongshan clan's domain, mountains also towered everywhere, each one reaching tens of thousands of feet or even higher.
>
In some mountains, you can see candlelight flickering above them, as if they were asleep or quietly cultivating.
By chance.
Visible, other wisps of candle flame, smaller in size, are moving across the heavens.
In the ancient land of Eternal Continent, all celestial beings and creatures manifested themselves in forms representing the Dao of Heaven and Earth. Even cultivators who hadn't reached the Saint Realm would use means to transform their appearances.
But here.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
But that is not the case at all.
Of course, the Zhongshan clan cultivators below the Saint Realm needn't be mentioned much. They almost never use means to conceal themselves and always appear in their true forms.
Even some powerful candlestick formations did not reveal the form of the Heavenly Dao Body.
Wherever the long boat passed, Shen Changqing could feel some candle shadows lying in the mountains, radiating a powerful aura.
And then, wait for the breath.
not weaker than the divine realm at all.
In the past.
In the ancient continent, the distinction between the myriad celestial races and the human race didn't feel very significant to him.
When arriving at the Zhōngshān clan, one naturally experiences a strong sense of contrast and conflict.
That feeling.
This made Shen Changqing feel as if he had come to a country where there were only beasts and no human beings.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
For a long time.
He withdrew his gaze from below and looked at Zhong Shan Chang Hong.
"Excuse me, Elder Seven, when we arrived, we saw a senior inside the main hall cave, but we don't know who that senior is. I've never heard of him before."
Shen Changqing thought of the elderly man who could make Zhong Shangdong and Xuan treat each other with courtesy.
That person is most likely an extraordinary expert from the Zhongshan clan.
Therefore.
He wanted to take this opportunity to find out.
When he heard this, Zhong Shan Chang Hong's expression became solemn: "You're talking about You Lao, aren't you!"
"Not bad."
>
"Elder Yu is an ancestor of our clan. He has always been very mysterious, living in the main hall cave and never coming out. I don't know much about him either, only that he has existed for a very long time."
Even I, the God King of my clan, hold the utmost respect for Elder You.
Zhong Shanchang waved his head.
Then, he looked at Shen Changqing and the others.
"Although I don't know the specific identity of You Lao, he enjoys a status above others in the eyes of the God King. You should not offend him rashly, or if you truly anger You Lao, I fear even the Eastern Xuan God King won't be able to protect you."
After a slight warning, Zhong Shan Chang Hong suddenly laughed again.
“But Old Yu has always been mild-tempered, and I’ve never seen him get angry. Perhaps there’s nothing that would bother him.”
Upon hearing this.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Zhong Shanhai and others felt a little itchy in their hearts.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Originally, they weren't very curious about You Lao. However, Chang Hong's mysterious words about Zhongshan greatly piqued their curiosity.
However.
They also knew this.
>
As the clan elder, Zhong Shan Chang Hong couldn't figure out You Lao's identity. Looking at the entire Zhong Shan clan, only the God King could probably solve this mystery.
But to have them go and ask the God King, that is impossible.
During the conversation.
The long boat suddenly stopped.
Next.
As soon as they arrived, Zhong Shan Chang Hong took out an unknown token. A beam of golden light shot from the token and landed in the void ahead.
Suddenly.
The void twists and writhes.
The original peaceful space, as if stimulated by something intense.
Then.
He then saw the other party put away the token and activate the long boat, directly entering the turbulent void.
Space travel.
It was like passing through a thin layer of water.
Such a strange feeling didn't surprise Shen Changqing and the others much.
By this level, spatial teleportation was nothing more than a commonplace means of travel. Anyone present could do it.
However.
When he truly entered that space, Shen Changqing was directly shocked.
Qi!
Overwhelming spiritual energy!
Originally, when he was in the Ancient Continent, he believed that the spiritual energy of the Ancient Continent was the most abundant and powerful.
But it wasn't until this moment that Shen Changqing realized in astonishment that he had been looking at the world from the bottom of a well.
The spiritual energy in this space before me is several times denser than it was on the Ancient Continent.
The moment one enters, the entire person is enveloped by an overwhelmingly rich spiritual energy. Every pore on the body involuntarily opens, greedily absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy to nourish oneself.
"This is the Celestial Domain—"
Zhongshan Changhong pointed at the vast expanse before him, seeming to be intoxicated by the rich spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
"Since the establishment of the Zhongshan Clan, the Heavenly Domain has existed. After being crafted by the supreme powerhouses within the clan, it has become what it is today."
Below the Heavenly Domain, there are ten thousand large spiritual veins. When the Heavenly Domain is not open, all spiritual energy is stored here. Every time it opens, the spiritual energy that has been sealed for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years will surge out.
>
"As for spiritual energy concentration, the Ancient Continent and the Celestial Realm are both lacking compared to the Heavenly Court!"
Ten thousand large spiritual veins!
Shen Changqing's heart skipped a beat.
>
Just these many spirit veins are already worth 10,000 sun and moon divine crystals.
Even a carrier can be exchanged for a few pieces, right
And this.
It's just a spiritual vein buried in the celestial realm.
He didn't believe that in the vast expanse of the celestial realm, only spirit veins would exist.
After all, Shinto is different from martial arts. It's not just about relying on spiritual energy.
As expected.
After a brief introduction, Zhong Shan Chang Hong pointed to the black shadow in front of them that seemed to pierce straight into the sky.
Do you know what that is
"... I don't know!"
Zhong Shanpeng, who had been silent all along, was speechless.
They were all first-timers to the Heavenly Domain, so how could they possibly know what it was.
The other party's questions are somewhat redundant.
Only Zhong Shan Kong Zhou, as he watched the shadow, seemed to have thought of something, his eyes flickering slightly.
"Could it be the Conferred Gods Platform!"
The Altar of Conferred Gods
Other disciples who heard this, their faces also changed.
To be honest.
They had never seen the Altar of Conferring Gods before.
After all, the Conferred God Stage appears only once every tens of thousands of years. All their ages combined are probably just about as long as one Conferred God Stage's lifespan.
But—
If these people haven't seen the Sealing Platform, then Zhongshen Kong Zhou shouldn't have either.
If that were the case, how would the other party have thought of the Platform of Sealing Gods
For a moment.
Their eyes, as they looked at Kong Zhou from Mount Zhōng, took on a strange cast.
Noting the gazes of others, Zhongshan Kong Zhou shook his head: “Although I haven’t seen the true Sealing Gods Platform, I have also heard other seniors speak of it.”
It is rumored that the Fengshentai is located in the Xiang domain, even a tower that goes straight into the clouds.
"The shadow in the celestial realm, if I'm not mistaken, should also be a high tower. However, I can't be sure about that."
>
Aha, I see!
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
Others suddenly understood.
Zhong Shan Chang Hong glanced at him approvingly, then nodded. "It seems your knowledge is considerable. However, the shadow in the Heavenly Domain is not a true Sealing God Stage, but a treasure forged by powerful members of my clan, imitating the Sealing God Stage."
"And the purpose of your journey is there!"
He paused for a moment.
The Seventh Elder continued, "This place in the Heavenly Domain is equivalent to the Divine Casting Platform. Beneath the Divine Casting Platform lies the Ascension Tower. Only by reaching the summit of the Ascension Tower can one truly enter the Divine Casting Platform and thus obtain a seat within it."
At the same time, the Casting God Stage also has a ranking system. The time you spend in the Heavenly Domain is three years for the outside world. After three years, only those ranked in the top ten on the Casting God Stage are eligible to go to the Zhongzhou Grand Region to participate in the Divine Sealing War.
>
If you fail, you can only return to where you came from.
Casting the Divine Platform!
Shén Chángqīng silently recited the name in his heart.
Immediately, he also heard another meaning in the other's words.
"Could it be that three years in the outside world are not equal to the time inside the celestial realm"
Upon hearing this.
Please note that I only translated the text content within the > tags and left the HTML tags as they are. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Zhong Shan Chang Hong gave him a long look, then nodded. "You're very clever. Not bad. The truly important place in Tian Yu isn't this overwhelming spiritual energy, but the Casting God Platform."
Those who can enter the Casting God Stage and occupy a seat there will receive blessings in terms of time.
On the Casting God Platform, there are one hundred seats. Among them, the last fifty seats have a time flow rate of two to one, meaning that what happens here over two years is equivalent to one year in the outside world.
The seats from fifty to thirty have a time flow rate of 3:1. As for the seats from twenty to ten, the time flow rate is 4:1.
> Those who can enter the top ten, the last seat time flow rate is five to one, the ninth is six to one, the eighth is seven to one, and so on, until the first seat time flow rate reaches fourteen to one.
Fourteen to one!
A year in the celestial realm is equivalent to fourteen years in the outside world.
Three years in the outside world would be equivalent to forty-two years inside the Heavenly Domain.
Hearing this, all the disciples were astonished.
Even Zhōng Shān Kǒng Zhōu is not exempt.
Time!
It has always been something mysterious and difficult to reach.
But unexpectedly, the Zhongshan clan had already brought time manipulation to such a level.
>
Such methods.
In his opinion, even a God King would find it difficult to master.
“These are just some basic understandings of the Casting God Platform. As for what specific rules and functions there are, I am unable to answer you.”
To be honest, even I haven't truly entered the Casting God Platform.
Zhong Shan Chang Hong showed regret on his face.
He yearned for the Casting God Platform. Aside from anything else, the unique time flow within it was already a priceless treasure.
>
You know.
For ordinary cultivators, being on the Casting God Platform only drains their lifespan and hastens their death. It's hardly a good thing.
But for true geniuses, what is often lacking is time.
As long as you give them enough time to settle down, it's almost a foregone conclusion that they will become strong.
Therefore.
For ordinary cultivators, it is a poisonous Casting God Platform. For peerless geniuses, it is an immeasurable treasure.
As they were talking, the long boat was steadily approaching.
The Casting Altar, which was originally just a shadow, also gradually became clearer.
Let me know if you have other text to translate!
All they could see was the Casting God Platform, resembling a towering structure that pierced straight into the clouds above. Its entire body was jet black with intricate patterns, exuding an ancient and austere aura that filled them with awe.
The Casting God Platform is just a general term.
And the towering structure before him, in Shen Changqing's eyes, should be the very "Ascending Tower" mentioned by the other party.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Rise to heaven.
Only then can one forge a god.
This god, naturally, couldn't simply refer to the gods of the divine realm.
From the name itself, you can almost see the ambitions of the Zhongshan clan.
He looked up, trying to discern something from it.
However.
It has no effect.
As the gaze reached the upper clouds, it was as if an enigmatic force blocked it, preventing any glimpse of the true form of the Casting God Platform.
...While at the foot of the Sky-Ascending Tower, one could see many cultivators waiting there.
Very soon.
The long boat landed.
With a flick of his wrist, Zhong Shan Chang Hong put away the long boat and came to the foot of the Tiān Tǎ (Tower Reaching Heaven).
He took out the original token and pressed it directly into a recessed area on the tower body. Immediately, the enormous Sky-Reaching Tower seemed to come alive, its pillar-like body trembling gently as if awakening.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
At that moment.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
The Heavenly Domain trembled.
The cultivators who were originally near the Ascension Tower, when the tower trembled, couldn't help but feel a shadow of fear in their hearts, and finally had to retreat.
When leaving.
Shen Changqing was also quietly sizing up the other people around him.
At first glance.
These people number in the hundreds, if not more.
From their breath, these cultivators were clearly members of the Zhongshan clan.
Moreover, each person's strength is not weak. The weakest are at least at the seventh level of the Divine Realm.
In comparison.
Being the only one in their realm at the fifth level of divinity seems a bit out of place.
While Shen Changqing silently observed the others, those people were also silently observing them.
Although it is said that the Zhúzōng was a force established by the Zhōngshān clan on the ancient continent, in fact, the two sides are considered as one whole.
However.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
Disciples of the Candle Sect rarely return to their clans.
This led to the two sides being called a single entity, but secretly they had already become somewhat estranged.
Whether it's the disciples of Zhuzong viewing the cultivators of the Zhongshan Clan, or the cultivators of the Zhongshan Clan viewing the disciples of Zhuzong, they feel the same way.
Even.
There was a hint of hostility.
Shen Changqing thought about it carefully and understood what was going on.
Zhong Shan Chang Hong said that there are only one hundred seats on the Casting God Platform, but there are hundreds of people present. This means that almost two-thirds of the cultivators may be eliminated next.
That's all.
Every additional cultivator who arrives represents a form of competition for the others.if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!。Shen Changqing's mind sank into the Minghe Realm, beginning to comprehend the rules of the Minghe Realm. As he breathed, terrifying spiritual ene...
