Chapter 551: Scene in the Deepest part of the Six Heavenly Gates Diagram
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
There was a Taiji Golden Hall on Mount Chonghe.
Legend has it that this was the place where ancient Taiji Immortals attained the Dao a long time ago. It contained mysterious Dao runes that could help people comprehend the Dao, pry into the mysteries of True Immortals, and obtain supreme divine powers.
The foundation of the Taiji Sect was also this Taiji Golden Hall.
His Ancestral Master comprehended the Great Dao in this Taiji Golden Hall and obtained the inheritance of the ancient Taiji Immortals. With this as the foundation, he established the current Taiji Sect.
Therefore, in the Taiji Sect, the status of the Taiji Golden Hall was extremely high. Only the Sect Master had the right to enter and exit freely, and only the Sect Master could cultivate inside.
Unless one had received a personal summons from the Sect Master, no one could enter the Taiji Golden Hall without permission.
Even with the permission of the Sect Master, those who were not the Sect Master could not cultivate in the Taiji Golden Hall.
This was a rule left behind by the Ancestral Master. No one could change it.
Now, the current Sect Master of the Taiji Sect, Wu Qi, was sitting in the Taiji Golden Hall. His eyes were slightly closed as he floated in the air. With the help of the Golden Hall, he was comprehending endless Great Dao laws to strengthen his Xuan Sea.
“Sect Master, the Holy Son is here. From the looks of it, he seems to have something very urgent.” At this moment, a voice came from outside.
Wu Qi naturally woke up from his meditation. He looked outside gently and nodded with a smile. “Alright, let him in. It won’t be too late to talk after he comes in.”
As the Sect Master of the Taiji Sect, he knew very well what a genius like Zhang Fengchan could bring to the Taiji Sect.
No matter how badly he performed, he could still make the Taiji Sect extremely powerful.
If he was lucky enough, he might be able to bring the entire Taiji Sect to a higher level and become stronger.
Therefore, Wu Qi was very concerned about Zhang Fengchan.
As long as it was something Zhang Fengchan suggested, he would send someone to complete or investigate it wholeheartedly.
Moreover, Zhang Fengchan was not someone who spoke without reason.
Every time he suggested something, it was very important. It could allow the Taiji Sect and Wu Qi to obtain quite a bit of benefits.
This also made his words more and more important in the Taiji Sect.
… .
“Greetings, Sect Master!”
Zhang Fengchan’s attitude was still very respectful.
After bowing to Wu Qi, he explained the situation he had sensed earlier.
Especially the cultivation realm of the figure.
Above the Peak of the Xuan Sea Realm!
“What?” Wu Qi’s expression changed when he heard this. He frowned and said in a low voice, “Are you serious? You sensed that an existence above the Peak of the Xuan Sea Realm had descended on Grand Yan Planet?”
“Yes, it’s absolutely true,” Zhang Fengchan said solemnly. “From the direction, it should be in the area of the Tianqi Mansion.”
“Tianqi Mansion, Six Heaven Gates Diagram…” Wu Qi’s eyes flickered, as if he was thinking about something. After a long while, he seemed to have made up his mind and said to Zhang Fengchan,” Perhaps you saw an Ancient King descend. ”
“Ancient King?!” Zhang Fengchan was shocked when he heard this. He said in disbelief, “What’s going on… Didn’t the Ancient Kings disappear long ago?”
“The Ancient Kings only disappeared and did not die. They will return sooner or later,” Wu Qi said in a low voice. “Moreover, in recent years, there have been rumors secretly spreading. ‘When the stars fall like rain and the Six Heaven Gates open, the Kings will return.'”
“…” Zhang Fengchan opened his mouth when he heard this. For a moment, many thoughts flashed through his mind. In the end, he took a deep breath and said, “You mean that the figure I saw might be the prelude to the return of the Kings?”
“Yes.” Wu Qi nodded and said, “According to that rumor, the Ancient Kings will only return after the Six Heaven Gates open.
Although those phenomena haven’t appeared yet, we can’t believe the rumors entirely. Perhaps they’re just saying that the Ancient Kings will return on a large scale, and there should be some prelude before that.
For example, there’s Zhong Xianyuan in the God Desolation Valley. Isn’t he the reincarnation of a conclusive Ancient King? This time, an Ancient King has descended. Thinking about it carefully, it’s normal.
I’m afraid the greater change is yet to come.”
“Sect Master, what should we do?” Zhang Fengchan asked.
“If the Ancient Kings return on a large scale, the current situation of the Great Yan Holy Land will definitely change drastically,” Wu Qi said in a low voice. “We should indeed be prepared in advance.
However, with our current strength, we probably don’t have the qualifications to compete with experts at the level of the Ancient Kings. It’s impossible to stop the Ancient Kings from descending.
Most importantly, our Taiji Sect doesn’t come from the inheritance of a certain Ancient King. After the Ancient Kings return, those once weak sects might even be stronger than us.
At that time, I’m afraid our situation will be very difficult.”
He conducted a series of analyses and concluded that the Taiji Sect would most likely not have an easy time in the future.
Zhang Fengchan was a little stunned by Wu Qi’s analysis and even felt a little confused. He asked curiously, “Sect Master, what do you mean? Are we going to do nothing and not prepare anything?”
“Of course we have to do something.” Wu Qi smiled relaxedly. He turned to look in the direction of Tianqi Mansion and said solemnly, “Our Taiji Sect doesn’t have any Ancient Kings as the source of our inheritance. Why don’t we take this opportunity to find an Ancient King as our backer?”
“???” Zhang Fengchan was stunned when he heard this. Then, he understood what Wu Qi meant and said in shock, “Sect Master, you mean that we should directly submit to that Ancient King?!”
“Isn’t this a beautiful thing?” Wu Qi smiled.
“How can this be? Our Taiji Sect is one of the Four Grand Yan Faiths. We’ve dominated the universe for countless years. How can we…” Zhang Fengchan found it difficult to accept. He had always been proud of his identity as a disciple of the Taiji Sect. He had never thought of relying on others.
“Four Grand Yan Faiths? Dominated the universe?” Wu Qi interrupted him and sneered. “All of this is not worth mentioning in front of an Ancient King.
You haven’t reached the Peak of the Xuan Sea Realm yet, so you can’t experience that unattainable and unreachable feeling at all. I’m sure that even the weakest Ancient King can crush me with a finger.”
“This…” Zhang Fengchan was speechless. He held onto his last bit of hope and said, “Don’t we still have the Ancient Immortal treasure left behind by the Ancestral Master? With the power of the Ancient Immortals, can’t we protect ourselves in front of the Ancient Kings?”
“This Taiji Golden Hall is an Ancient Immortal treasure left behind by the Ancestral Master. It has no offensive effect and can only be used to assist in cultivation.” Wu Qi shook his head.
“…” Zhang Fengchan was completely silent.
“Actually, I understand how you feel.” Wu Qi patted Zhang Fengchan’s shoulder gently and sighed. “You have to understand that many times, if you want to live and continue the sect’s legacy, you have to give up some meaningless pride.”
“…I understand.” Zhang Fengchan gritted his teeth and nodded. Suddenly, he looked up and said, “But for such a huge matter, the Elders and Grand Elders must agree.”
“Don’t worry.” Wu Qi chuckled and said, “Those old fellows who have lived for tens of millions of years know what the path of survival is better than a 30,000-year-old young man like you.
They’ll agree.”
… .
At the same time that the Taiji Sect made a decision, the forces with special investigation treasures began to feel uneasy.
They had already discovered the results of their supreme treasure.
An expert above the Peak of the Xuan Sea Realm had actually descended to Great Yan Planet!
Was this the return of the Ancient kings?!
However, because these were only secret treasures and not living beings, they could not directly determine the location of the descent like Zhang Fengchan, so these forces could only secretly guess where this expert had descended.
At the same time, they made preparations to deal with the crisis.
Before long, the other large factions also received this news and were extremely shocked.
For a moment, many top factions on Great Yan Planet were in a state of panic.
Some were happy, while others were worried.
The return of the Ancient Kings caused too many variables.
Many forces began to make plans in secret.
They hoped that they could survive the next great change. Even if he could not obtain any benefits, they had to at least continue their legacy.
The entire Great Yan Holy Land began to surge with undercurrents.
However, to most ordinary people or martial artists, these undercurrents seemed to not exist at all.
They continued to live as usual.
They did not notice the surging undercurrent at all.
This was both luck and misfortune.
… .
In the guest courtyard of the Tianqi Mansion.
Cui Heng sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His aura was obscure and filled with a mysterious charm.
His body was intertwined with invisible Dao and Logos, causing his cultivation to increase rapidly at every moment.
This was the result of establishing a communication connection with the Great Dao laws of the Great Yan Holy Land.
As Cui Heng had already learned a lot of information about the Great Yan Holy Land through Tang Yuanshan before he came to the Great Yan Planet, the process of establishing communication with the Great Dao laws was very smooth.
Now that he had established the initial communication, apart from obtaining an increase in his cultivation speed, he could also control the Great Dao laws here at will. He could be considered to have established a foothold here.
“Next, I’ll study the true secret of the Six Heaven Gates Diagram.” Cui Heng slowly opened his eyes. With a light shake of his palm, an ancient painting appeared in front of him.
It was the Ancient King treasure, the Six Heaven Gates Diagram.
He had long understood the surface effect of this diagram. It was to refine the Great Dao laws into characteristics to assist in cultivation or increase one’s strength.
However, after coming to Grand Yan Planet, Cui Heng realized that the true effect of this diagram might not be as simple as it seemed.
Hence, Cui Heng spread his Dharmic powers and enveloped the Six Heaven Gates Diagram. At the same time, he stretched out his divine sense.
He began to explore this treasure in greater depth.
At first, he did not discover any abnormalities. The Six Heaven Gates Diagram was still the same, and the effect was no different.
However, just as Cui Heng’s divine sense and Dharmic powers explored the deepest depths of the Six Heaven Gates at the same time, he suddenly felt a ball of light flash before his eyes.
In this ball of light were strange images.
There were human figures, beast shadows, and the shadows of mountains, rivers, sun, moon, and stars.
They intersected with each other and overlapped. Sometimes, they distorted, and sometimes, they became blurry.
It was very strange.
After seeing these strange images, he actually felt like he was observing another world.
