Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Although the Duan Clan Village was just a small village, they had many Celestial Emperors. In fact, Celestial Lords and Celestial Kings were common in the village. Even the children’s constitutions were that of a celestial.
Duan Ling Tian indirectly asked around and learned that children in the Realms of Gods were born celestials. In fact, pregnant mothers had to suppress their babies’ powers while the babies were still in gestation to avoid injuring both the mothers and the babies. He had to ask in a roundabout manner since it would be strange for him to not know such things when he had told them he came from the Zen Boundary Land.
“The members of the Duan Clan have been living in the mountains for generations. We earn divine rocks to help with our cultivation through farming Celestial herbs and fruits.”
“After attaining godhood, the villagers will venture down the mountain to cultivate and gain experience. However, they’re prohibited from sharing their cultivation method with outsiders. They have to take the Heart Demon Blood Oath before they are taught their cultivation methods. Since this oath was created by a supreme powerhouse, even Supreme Gods wouldn’t be able to break the oath without repercussions.”
“In fact, this practice isn’t just limited to the village. Many forces make their members take the Heart Demon Blood Oath as well. The supreme powerhouse can sense when the oath is broken and will send his men to deal with the oath breakers.”
“Everyone in the Realms of Gods will have to take the Heart Demon Blood Oath, leaving a mark on them. The mark is indelible until they become a supreme powerhouse.”
During his stay in the Duan Clan Village, he did not only learn about the Duan Clan Village but Realms of Gods in general as well.
The Heart Demon Blood Oath was similar to the Lightning Penalty Oath in the mundane realm. Surprisingly, the Heart Demon Blood Oath could be considered inferior to the latter since the latter would attract the lightning as punishment if they broke their oath. On the other hand, if one broke the Heart Demon Blood Oath, the supreme powerhouse would have to personally send his men to deal with the oath breakers. If the oath breaker was a Supreme God, the supreme powerhouse would even personally make a move. Hence, everyone, unless they were supreme powerhouses, was afraid of breaking the Heart Demon Blood Oath.
“The Realms of Gods were created by supreme powerhouses. In fact, to supreme powerhouses, Realms of Gods are almost the same as Little Worlds. In fact, there’s a possibility that the Realms of Gods had evolved from supreme powerhouses’ Little Worlds.”
This was told to Duan Ling Tian by the World Cleansing Divine Water. However, the World Cleansing Divine Water had said this was its own conjecture.
‘How unexpected… Even a small village in a Realm of Gods has so many Celestial Emperors and even produced a god!’ Duan Ling Tian was still shocked that even a small village in a Realm of Gods was so powerful. Something like this was unimaginable in the Devata Realms. He had to constantly remind himself that he was now in a Realm of God, which was completely different from Devata Realms.
‘Master taught me a cultivation method previously. I’ll be able to become a Supreme God if my innate talent is high and my comprehension of the law is profound…’
After arriving in the Profound Energy Land, he realized the importance of cultivation methods in the Realms of Gods. Low-grade cultivation methods that could help one attain godhood were incredibly precious in Devata Realms, and yet, they were readily available even in such a small village like the Duan Clan Village. To obtain higher grades cultivation methods, they would need to spend divine rocks to obtain them so many of them could not afford to obtain them.
Most forces in the Realms of Gods possessed mostly mid-grade cultivation methods while only powerful forces would possess high-grade cultivation methods.
There were two ways for most people to become Supreme Gods. They either had connections to supreme powerhouses and inherited the supreme powerhouses’ cultivation methods or they had to rely on their own innate talent and comprehension skills. It was not necessary to cultivate supreme cultivation methods to become Supreme Gods, but it would make the process easier.
“A primitive divine artifact without a soul is considered a luxury to the villagers in the Duan Clan Village. It’d cost them a fortune to obtain one. Despite being around for such a long time, the village only had one divine artifact that’s kept by the first Leader of the Duan Clan Village.”
The first Leader of the Duan Clan Village was also the head of the Eastern Village. He was a mysterious figure in the village since it had been a long time since anyone had seen him. The matters regarding the Eastern Village were delegated to his subordinates, and nobody knew if he was still in the village. Most of the villagers suspected he had already attained godhood.
“There are many villages like the Duan Clan Sect here. The nearest village is the Tie Clan Village. Apart from the Duan Clan Village and the Tie Clan Village, there were at least a dozen similar villages in the mountain range.”
Duan Ling Tian did not spend all his time cultivating since he was curious about this new place. He wanted to see how he could utilize his time here. After all, he only had 300 years left to cultivate. After 300 years, regardless of his cultivation base, he was determined to head to the Divine Offering Land to save his wife, Ke’er.
…
In just a blink of an eye, a month had passed since Duan Ling Tian arrived at the Duan Clan Village. He had gained a lot of information during his stay here. At this time, he planned to leave the Duan Clan Village for the nearest city. Those from the village who wanted to cultivate cultivation methods to attain godhood could only obtain them from that city. The strongest force in that city had many rudimentary gods.
Duan Ling Tian planned to leave after Duan Lang’s wedding ceremony.
Duan Lang was one of the two men he had followed to the Duan Clan Village a month ago. The head of the southern village, Duan Qing, had asked Duan Lang to help Duan Ling Tian settle down in the village back then. For that reason, the duo grew closer and got along very well. It was only natural that Duan Lang invited Duan Ling Tian to attend his wedding. Duan Ling Tian gladly accepted the invitation and delayed his plan to leave the village.
Duan Ling Tian also decided to give Duan Lang a Celestial Emperor Grade Weapon as his wedding gift. Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons were rare in small villages like the Duan Clan Village; there were less than 10 Emperor Grade Celestial Weapons in the Duan Clan Village. There was only Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon with a spirit, and it was in Duan Qing’s possession.
Duan Ling Tian planned to give Duan Lang an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon without a spirit even though he possessed several ones with weapon spirits from the Nine Stars Gods of War he killed during his time in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. However, he knew if he had given Duan Lang such a weapon, it would only bring disaster to Duan Lang.
The village was bustling with activities early in the morning the day before Duan Lang’s wedding.
When Duan Ling Tian left his house, he saw the village had been fully decorated. Children were chasing each other; the sound of their laughter permeated the air. On the other hand, the adults were busy helping Duan Lang prepare for his wedding so the children were able to play without restraint.
The wedding ceremony would be held in the Duan Clan Village since the Tie Clan would send the bride over to their village.
Duan Ling Tian walked toward Duan Lang who was at the southern entrance of the village and handed him a spatial that contained the wedding gift to Duan Lang. He said with a smile, “Congratulations, Duan Lang. This is your wedding gift.”
Duan Lang shook his head and said, “Brother Ling Tian, I can’t accept this gift. I’m happy enough that you’re attending my wedding ceremony.”
Duan Lang knew Duan Ling Tian would be leaving soon since Duan Ling Tian had mentioned this matter to him.
Upon hearing these words, Duan Qing, the head of the southern village, asked, “Ling Tian, you’re leaving?”
Duan Qing was present as well. After all, the bride was the daughter of the second Leader of the Tie Clan Village. He naturally had to be present to receive the bride as a show of respect.
Duan Ling Tian smiled and nodded. “I plan to leave after Duan Lang’s wedding ceremony. Thank you for looking after me all this time. I’ll never forget your kindness and will return the favor in the future.”
“Brother Ling Tian, you’re being too courteous.” Duan Qing shook his head. “It’s not a big deal at all. Moreover, you’ve been helping us hunt beasts during the past month. Without you, our clan would have suffered a great loss during the previous hunt.”
10 days ago, the villagers in the Duan Clan Village encountered a beast with the strength of a Celestial Emperor. If Duan Ling Tian was not around, the villagers would have suffered a huge loss, and they would have needed to call for reinforcement to deal with the beast. Moreover, it was likely many of them would have been killed while they waited for reinforcement to arrive.. Fortunately, Duan Ling Tian was around and had defeated the beast with just a punch.
