Chapter 408: Power of the Heavenly Court, Chaos in the Human Realm

Feng Yu was extremely excited. He was not in a hurry to go back and tell his younger siblings. Instead, he stayed there for four more hours. He only relaxed when it was late at night.
It was indeed a huge opportunity!
Right now, his physical body could automatically absorb the martial arts spirit energy to temper his body. The effect was continuous and had yet to weaken.
His motivation was high as he immediately stood up and walked towards the distant mountain forest.
Returning to the courtyard they had built, Feng Yu wanted to tell his younger siblings about it, but he stopped when he saw them sitting around the campfire.
He still did not know the origin of this lucky opportunity, nor did he know how long it would last. He could not involve his younger siblings in unknown danger.
“I must make good use of this power and become stronger as soon as possible.” Feng Yu thought silently, and his eyes became firm.
No one could stop him from becoming stronger. He wanted revenge and to protect his younger siblings.
“No matter who bestowed this power on me, as long as it can make me stronger, they will be my benefactor. I cannot miss it!”
Feng Yu had been thinking about how to become stronger all these years, but reality told him that his talent was very mediocre. Even if he was motivated and devoted more energy to training than before, his gains were minimal. It was practically impossible for him to flatten the ancient sects.
Until today!
He would never forget this day!
When Jiang Changsheng saw Feng Yu calming down, he smiled in satisfaction. People had to keep their lucky encounters to themselves. If they could not share this power with their families, why should they even say it out loud? In the future, they could just use their power to benefit their families. If they were to say it out loud, it would only cause unnecessary trouble.
“I look forward to your future and to the day you can walk in front of me, so don’t die on the way up the mountain, fated one.”
Jiang Changsheng chuckled and closed his eyes to cultivate.
Bai Qi and White Dragon were still sound asleep and did not hear him talking to himself.
This matter would become a secret, and he would not tell anyone about this for a long time.
After Jiang Changsheng entered seclusion, time began to pass quickly.
More than a decade later, Heavenly Lord Bai, Lu Shenzhou, and the others returned on a sky ship. The return journey was faster than the time it took to get there. This was because they were going to an unknown world and did not dare to travel at full speed. On the other hand, on the way back, they did not worry about traveling at full speed.
Lingxiao Palace.
Heavenly Lord Bai was currently reporting the diplomatic situation. The legitimate gods who went on this trip were all standing at the back. Among the Heavenly Soldiers, only Lu Shenzhou was present. He had contributed too much, so it was impossible for him not to appear.
“This trip has confirmed the trade between both sides. In the future, the two worlds will think of ways to build a teleportation array. The Spirit Energy World is still willing to give up their spirit energy pool. This pool can allow one’s potential to be utilized without any price. However, the Spirit Energy
World hopes that the Heavenly Court can protect them…’
Heavenly Lord Bai spoke tirelessly, and the smile on his face could not be wiped.
Jiang Ziyu listened attentively while Chen Li and Yang Zheng nodded from time to time. The Three Heavenly Lords recognized each other’s abilities, but Heavenly Lord Bai had lived longer than them and was currently stronger than them. Therefore, they still needed to learn humbly from him.
Lu Shenzhou stood proudly with his chin raised, waiting for the Celestial Emperor’s praise.
After Heavenly Lord Bai finished speaking, Jiang Ziyu shouted, “Good! Well done! This will help the Kunlun Field expand in the Endless Void!”
He looked at Lu Shenzhou with a burning gaze and said, “Lu Shenzhou, listen up. From today on, you will become a legitimate god and be ranked as a Great General stationed in the Celestial River!”
When Lu Shenzhou heard that, he was overjoyed and immediately bowed to thank him.
Taishi Changce was extremely envious. However, Lu Shenzhou’s contribution was indeed great, and he could not do what he did. Therefore, he could only be envious.
Jiang Ziyu had also rewarded others, mostly with worldly possessions, which satisfied everyone on this trip.
“Lu Shenzhou, I happen to have something I need you to do.” Jiang Ziyu looked at Lu Shenzhou and said with a smile.
How could Lu Shenzhou dare to refuse? Naturally, he agreed. “When Ye Zhan follows you in the future, give him more pointers.”
“Ye Zhan?”
Lu Shenzhou was surprised. He thought of something and asked, “Is he Ye Shenkong’s younger brother?” “That’s right!”
“Of course there’s no problem!”
Lu Shenzhou revealed a strange smile with ill intentions.
When Taishi Changce saw that smile, he suddenly thought of the legend that Lu Shenzhou and Ye Shenkong had interacted with each other. Furthermore, the rumors were not pleasant. Could it be…
He could not help but mourn for Ye Zhan, but it should be good for him, as Ye Zhan was even more arrogant than him right now. Ever since Ye Zhan broke through, the two of them had met in the Mental Wander Realm, and Ye Zhan immediately issued a challenge to him.
How could Taishi Changce dare to accept the challenge? He had yet to reach the Ultimate Void Realm.
He was surpassed by a junior and even provoked. It was too f*cking frustrating!
At the thought of this, Taishi Changce felt a fire burning in his heart.
On the other side.
Ye Zhan did not stay in the Heavenly Court. Instead, he came to the endless ocean.
He flew into a continent and landed in a mountain forest. After passing through layers of formations, he arrived at a valley.
The valley was empty and lonely, filled with a gray mist. The surrounding mountains were like devil gods in the gray mist, terrifying and awe-inspiring.
As soon as Ye Zhan walked in, it was as if he had walked from day to night. A figure quickly rushed to him. This person seemed to be covered in mud, and his face could not be seen clearly. All that was left was a pair of bloodshot eyes.
“It seems like you are furious. Let me tell you a piece of news that can appease your anger. You have been locked up for hundreds of years, and so have I. I was suppressed at the foot of the mountain by the Dao Ancestor and had to endure countless people coming to revile me.”
Ye Zhan was not afraid of the person in front of him.
Hearing his words, the ferocity in the mysterious man’s eyes lessened and he seemed to have calmed down.
Ye Zhan snorted and said, “Lin Hongchen, you should be able to sense the changes in yourself. You and I are mortal enemies, and you should be grateful that I can give you this opportunity. Right now, I need you to work for me. By doing so, you will obtain freedom and greater power than before. Are you willing to work for me?”
This mysterious person was the Heavenly Duke of Guangtian, Lin Hongchen!
Lin Hongchen’s eyes flickered. After struggling for a while, he finally knelt in front of Ye Zhan. He pressed his forehead against the ground in front of Ye Zhan and said while gritting his teeth. “I am willing to serve the lord!”
Ye Zhan revealed a smile and said, “The world outside has changed greatly, but you have chosen the best path. Your future will exceed your imagination. I can even let you establish another dynasty!”
Lin Hongchen trembled when he heard that. He looked forward to the outside world, but he was also afraid.
With the passage of time, the situation in the world fluctuated. The Heavenly Court was relocated to the Ninth Heaven, and the luck of the human world was endless. Expectedly, the strength of the Kunlun Field ushered in an explosive growth. Thanks to the existence of the Mental Wander Realm, many ultimate techniques were quickly spread.
The status of the Heavenly Court in the hearts of everyone was getting higher and higher. Immortal Gods would also secretly nurture their influence in the human world for their own benefit. Even an ordinary Heavenly Soldier and God Attendant would receive the highest level of reception in the dynasty when they arrived in the human world. The same was true for when visiting other races.
With the expansion of power, the internal problems of the Heavenly Court naturally increased. The Heavenly Prison was no longer as deserted as before.
On this day.
Heavenly Prison.
Bang!
After the cell door was closed, the Heavenly Soldier scolded, “You better stay here. You really shamed the Heavenly Court!”
Li Canghai, who was training, opened his eyes and looked over. He saw a God Attendant in the opposite cell. It was obvious that he had been punished. He was covered in blood and was lying on the ground like a long worm.
Li Canghai could not help but ask, “Brother Han, what crime did he commit?”
Because he was brought here by Lu Shenzhuo, and his realm was also high, the soldiers did not dare to neglect him. They all knew that he would be ranked in the immortal class sooner or later, and he was someone they needed to curry favor with.
The Heavenly Soldier turned around and looked at him. He smiled and said, “This guy went down to the Lower Realm to swindle money and women. He claimed that as long as they entertain him, they will obtain blessings from the Heavenly Court. He has done this so many times. When the truth came out, Lord Li sentenced him to 5000 years in prison. With his current realm, he will basically die in the Heavenly Prison.”
Li Canghai nodded. Just as he was about to speak, someone else came. This time, there were two Heavenly Soldiers escorting a wealthy-looking man.
Seeing him, the Heavenly Soldier inched nearer to the cell door and said in a low voice, “He is a person with an incredible status. He is the son of His
Majesty, the Celestial Emperor, and he is equivalent to the grandson of the Dao
Ancestor. However, he was still thrown into prison. Do you see that? Our
Heavenly Court is impartial.”
Li Canghai nodded as he lamented internally.
Such a place of power was exactly what he yearned for. He was well aware that the Divine Martial Realm could not do this. He once wanted to join the Divine Martial Realm, but voluntarily withdrew during the test because he had seen too many dark spots.
He took a deep breath and said, “Brother Han, can you help me call Lord Li
Jun?”
When the soldier heard that, he immediately beamed with joy and said,
“Alright, alright, alright. Just you wait!”
This was an opportunity for him to make contributions, so he was naturally excited.
On the other hand, Li Canghai was uneasy. He did not know if he could go out with his head lowered, but he was still uneasy.
It was not because of the Dao Ancestor, but the sister in his heart.
Ever since he was locked up in the Heavenly Prison, Ci Mei had not come to visit him. She only sent a member of the Chang Clan to warn him not to oppose the Heavenly Court.
Within the Purple Cloud Palace.
Jiang Changsheng slowly opened his eyes and saw Bai Qi and Mu Lingluo conversing in low voices not far away.
He cracked his neck and stretched.
This seclusion was so refreshing!
His cultivation realm had increased by quite a bit, inching him closer and closer to a breakthrough.
He looked at the human world and learned that it had been 340 years since the Inherited Heaven Era started. In other words, he had been in seclusion for 64 years.
It was not too long, not too short.
Seeing that Jiang Changsheng had woken up, Mu Lingluo and Bai Qi walked over.
Mu Lingluo said, “Heavenly Jing is in chaos.”
Jiang Changsheng casually asked, “What’s the mess?”
Bai Qi continued, “Jiang Xiu raided the homes of many vassal kings, reducing the number of vassal kings by two-thirds. Some died while others were demoted. Jiang Xiu has already been called a tyrant, and there have been many disasters.”
The vassal kings were all members of the Jiang Family. Therefore, Jiang Xiu’s actions had been labeled as heartless. Many people wanted to scold him for being unfilial, but when they thought of Jiang Xiu’s identity, they held back. Even though Heavenly Jing had inherited the power of Great Jing, the Dao Ancestor’s seniority was too high. It could be traced back to the second generation of Great Jing’s imperial family. Those with higher seniority than the Dao Ancestor in the Jiang Family had all died, leaving only the younger generation.
Mu Lingluo said, “Ziyu also tried to persuade Jiang Xiu, but the father and son had a disagreement and their relationship soured..”
