The Spiritual Realm was vast and had no boundaries. Under freezing skies, a million creatures contended in freedom.

The large sun hung in the sky and the surroundings were dark green. Both the light of a green star and a purple star flickered and swayed brightly.

Inside the green star.

Jade treasures and dense cl.u.s.ters golden imperial palaces could be seen everywhere. Above the giant Gate of Heaven, there were two words written in sacred text⁠—"Heavenly Court"!

This was where the Divine Dao"s ruler, the Heavenly Court, was located in the Spiritual Realm! Its position was shockingly beside the Mental Demon Realm residual poison, the purple star!

There was no choice as the Divine Dao relied on the realm and the Human Dao. Although it had no need for external conquest, it had an unavoidable responsibility of maintaining internal stability.

Since ancient times, the emperor had guarded the gates of the country and died with the people. The G.o.ds could not avoid this since even mortals were so.

After the formation of the Mental Demon residual poison, the Celestial Thearch acted in accordance with heaven and s.h.i.+fted the Heavenly Court to the frontlines against the Mental Demon.

Currently, a graceful G.o.d wearing a robe and crown was slowly strolling on a white jade path before raising his head to glance at the sky.

Due to the distance, the purple star was enlarged thousands of times, like an evil eye constantly releasing a devilish light.

Seeing this, this G.o.d was not astonished but excited. "It"s slightly weakened again. Although the Mental Demon residual poison is powerful, it"s ultimately unable to defeat the Spiritual Realm"s natural source and is slowly being devoured…"

When the Mental Demon had invaded and left behind this scar, the residual poison, the Divine Dao"s Heavenly Court had voluntarily faced this catastrophe and formed a line of defense, sealing the influence of the origin power.

They also occasionally dispatched G.o.ds to sweep the evil beings born on the Mental Demon Battlefield and obtained great favor from the heavens.

With this extra time, the Spiritual Realm"s natural source was slowly devouring the Mental Demon origin power, seeing results day by day. Although the progress was slow, it was worthwhile to the realm, even if it took thousands of years, as long as the Mental Demon origin power was refined.

"We"re just guarding the Heaven Palace and contributing magical strength daily to maintain the operation of the Ma.s.sive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array sealing the Mental Demon origin power. Still, the Mental Demon Battlefield is extremely dangerous! I heard that just yesterday, another Marquis died. Sigh…"

Although this G.o.d was also a Marquis, he could not help but being frightened.

At the intersection of the Heavenly Court and the purple battlefield, there was a dimly lit star, seemingly a thin layer, but was actually condensed by the Divine Dao"s entire strength. Using the Heavenly Court as the pivot, it separated the two from the heavens and the earth to block the influence of origin power.


Only G.o.ds and Immortals with the Heavenly Court"s recognition could pa.s.s through the designated pa.s.sage and enter the battlefield to kill demons and obtain heavenly merits. This was also to reduce the Mental Demon"s power as much as possible and prevent the birth of any horrifying Evil G.o.ds.

The Mental Demon Battlefield was extremely perilous, and the waves of Earth Immortals entering all perished. Only Heaven Immortals and superior G.o.ds had the power to struggle.

"Until the Mental Demon Battlefield disappears, those drafted will have to go. This is the responsibility of the Divine Dao. With the Celestial Thearach setting a personal example, who can be excused?"

With the seal of the Ma.s.sive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array, there was no retreat after entering the Mental Demon Battlefield. The Heavenly Court and Celestial Thearach were behind keeping the entire situation under control, and even Ancient G.o.ds escaping had to peris.h.!.+

This G.o.d was afraid that one day, there would be insufficient manpower and it would become his turn.

"I heard that on the Mental Demon Battlefield, there is evil elemental force everywhere. Our kind can neither obtain nor use it, or else we"ll immediately turn demonic…"

To Fang Yuan, it was a huge benefit no matter whether it was the Mental Demon elemental force or the origin power. However, it was different to the G.o.ds and Immortals of this realm.

Even if there were almighty beings capable of refining origin power, after they succeeded, they would instantly change camps. Unless they could immediately pa.s.s through to the Mental Demon Realm, n.o.body in the Spiritual Realm would allow it.

Only the Spiritual Realm"s heaven"s will had the supreme means to devour Mental Demon origin power and transform it into the realm"s purest natural source without suffering any contamination.

There"s actually no harm in turning demonic. The Mental Demon Realm is a "heaven" stronger than the Spiritual Realm, so it"s not really a difficult choice for many G.o.ds and Immortals to change camps… Unfortunately… we can"t run away! With the array seal, there are inspections every time someone enters. Once contaminated by demonic power, it can"t be cleansed and they"ll immediately be destroyed!

Even if they hide in the Mental Demon Battlefield, there"s nowhere else to go. The only outcome is awaiting death when the star is thoroughly digested!

Ascending into the clouds was the specialty of the Mental Demon cultivators in the lower realms. As for the Spiritual Realm natives, how could they break through to other dimensions?

Due to the higher dimension, the cost of traversing from the Spiritual Realm far exceeded the lower realms. Furthermore, the power the Divine Dao acc.u.mulated in this Ma.s.sive Heavenly Cycle Stellar Array was further augmented by heaven"s will and blocked everything.

This G.o.d shook his head, as if he was dispelling all the traitorous thoughts from his heart. "There are recently too many G.o.ds dying on the Mental Demon Battlefield, and they must be replaced. This is worrying."

There was practically a ninety percent chance of death after entering the Mental Demon Battlefield. G.o.ds and Immortals with true foundations were all naturally unwilling to go.

However, with righteousness pressing down, not going was unacceptable.

This G.o.d thought silently, felt a little frustrated, and then entered his G.o.d Palace.

The G.o.ds of the Heavenly Court were not Earthly G.o.ds, and each had their own post. His job was "Heaven Supervisor Deputy Commissioner", in charge of monitoring all lands under the heavens.

Of course, Deputy Commissioners like him monitored the major events happening in mostly one district before reporting to a Commissioner. All matters were finally decided by the Commissioner as to whether or not it concerned the Celestial Thearch.

"Oh? There seem to be some changes in the lands of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers!"Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.webnovel.com for visiting.

In the palace, there was a sandbox with small sections inside containing deserts, forests, mountains, and rivers. Just like a shrunken realm, it appeared quite charming.

With a wave of his hand, many scenes emerged, bright illusions transformed, and bits of white Qi rose, each representing a pattern of fate of their respective regions.

"Hmm, white represents nothing remarkable. The Qi of tens of thousands of mortals and ordinary small G.o.ds displays something similar to this. This is stable."

The other areas in the sandbox were still normal. At most, there were traces of black and golden light within the white Qi, which were small disturbances that could be resolved by the G.o.ds in that territory.

However, it was a completely different scene in the Three Mountains and Five Rivers.

Large cl.u.s.ters of white Qi formed a funnel that continued converging and sublimating. Golden lights flickered with black Qi mixed within.

"What a huge disturbance…" The Heaven Supervisor Deputy Commissioner was stunned. "What is this? The Divine Dao of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers cooperated and battled against the Immortal Dao? There are three of the 72 immortal sects and six Heaven Immortals there! Oh? Wait, the Immortal Dao aura is weak. Could they have suffered a major defeat? How can that be?"

The original Three Mountains and Five Rivers only had seven Earl-rank Earthly G.o.ds and could barely hold off the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. This was a situation that definitely should not have happened.

Seeing this scene, even an experienced G.o.d like the Deputy Commissioner burst into sweat. "Something drastic must have happened in the lower realm!"

He continuously unleashed magical techniques and magnified the Three Mountains and Five Rivers. "Hmm? Seems that the River Earl of the Surging Waves River has finally been born. Was this is the trigger for everything? Wait…"

The next instant, this G.o.d was astonished when he saw that the golden light above the Surging Waves River spit out a tinge of green.

"Green… this is a Marquis! An Earthly G.o.d in the lower realm has actually become a Marquis! This is serious and must be immediately reported!"

A Marquis was a high-level G.o.d in the Heavenly Court and no small matter.

And as a Heaven Supervisor Deputy Commissioner, he knew some secrets.

If it was a Deity Position conferred by the Heavenly Court, it was considered nothing. However, the Deity Position of an Earthly G.o.d naturally formed by the heavens and the earth, further possessing a foundation with the Three Mountains and Five Rivers, had immense growth potential.

There was even hope of becoming the next Excellency Mount Mang!

To any force that centralized power, they would not be pleased to see the emergence of a new warlord.

The Heaven Supervisor Deputy Commissioner walked with hurried steps as he entered a golden, s.h.i.+mmering hall and bowed to the G.o.d sitting in the seat of honor. "Sir Commissioner, there are changes in the lower realm. In the lands of the Three Mountains and Five Rivers, a new Deity Position has been born and it"s even a Marquis!"

"I already know!"

The G.o.d on the seat of honor had a strange, ancient appearance. His figure was huge and emitted light, carrying a flavor that was worn down by the ages. He waved his hand and light screens appeared. They were the scenes of Fang Yuan becoming a G.o.d and the Divine Dao conquering the Immortal Dao.

The Commissioner is indeed an Ancient G.o.d. With a mere thought, and relying on the majesty of the Heavenly Court, he"s able to know everything happening below the heavens!

Seeing this, the Deputy Commissioner was very envious.

An Ancient G.o.d had the t.i.tle of a Duke or King, but most importantly, they could communicate with the natural source and possess of a heaven and earth position. They had a lifespan equal to the heavens and vast magical powers.

However, an Ancient G.o.d was not something that Fang Yuan wanted to achieve.

That was because the origin power that he had obtained and used to break through was his own, even though it was only a drop! Even though an Ancient G.o.d seemingly occupied a portion of the heavens and the earth"s natural source, in reality they still needed permission from heaven"s will"s to truly utilize it.

Therefore, the Immortal Dao had freedom while the Divine Dao was restricted.

For someone like Fang Yuan who was pursuing immortality and hoped to visit many realms, he would not like adding shackles to himself.

"Three Mountains and Five Rivers Celestial Administrator?" The Heaven Supervisor Deputy Commissioner sensed the Deity Position"s authority, instantly envious as his eyes reddened. "Underhand secret dealings, attacking the Immortal Dao, killing Heaven Immortals… Sir, the actions of Lord Mountain River are sufficient to warrant him a trip to the G.o.d Killing Stage. Should we report to the Celestial Thearch and dispatch troops to capture him?"

"That Deity Position was created by heaven and arranged by earth, the result of heaven"s will. Do you think that an order from the Heavenly Court is superior to the heavens?"

The ancient Heaven Supervisor Commissioner released a torch-like gaze, as if it saw through everything the Deputy Commissioner was thinking. "As for attacking the Immortal Dao, we"re already not on good terms with them. This G.o.d isn"t a fool and definitely has an excuse! However, it was truly a little overboard to kill three Heaven Immortals and annihilate the Spiritual Flying Sword Sect. I"m afraid the protests of the 33 large sects have already nearly reached the Heavenly Court."

"In your opinion, what should we do, Sir?"

The Deputy Commissioner knelt on the ground and no longer dared be so petty.

"The capital crime may be exempted but punishment is inevitable. We must forcibly enlist him into the Heavenly Court!" the Amba.s.sador said matter-of-factly.

"Ascend into the Heavenly Court? This is only to reward meritorious G.o.ds… Wait…"

The Deputy Commissioner"s eyes moved as he instantly thought of something. "Before this, it was indeed to reward someone. However, now it"s being used to draft for the Mental Demon Battlefield. This G.o.d has a responsibility that he can"t s.h.i.+rk and has to go there once. Handling it like this can also account nicely to the Immortal Dao, so why not?

"Hmm, go ahead!"

The Ancient G.o.d Commissioner dismissed the Deputy Commissioner and looked at the screen, muttering to himself, "The most pressing issue is preventing this G.o.d from enlightening himself on the path to Ancient G.o.d!"
