Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“The destruction of Purple Sun Heaven and Zhou Juntian!” Ding Qiuhuang exclaimed when he heard this. His face could not help but reveal shock as he said with a trembling voice, “You’re investigating this?!”
In his agitation, he even forgot to address Cui Heng respectfully.
Ding Qiuhuang’s reaction surprised Cui Heng. From this reaction, it was obvious that he knew a lot.
“That’s right.” Cui Heng nodded slightly, and his gaze towards Ding Qiuhuang became gentle. He smiled and said, “From the looks of it, you know a lot about them. Tell me in detail.”
This was not a small bag of experience.
!!
“…” Ding Qiuhuang fell silent before saying with a bitter expression, “Exalted Immortal, why do you think I made a prison for myself and limited myself to a mere 10 li space? I don’t even dare to let my disciples know where I’m living in seclusion.”
“Is it related to the destruction of Purple Sun Heaven and Zhou Juntian?” Cui Heng frowned.
“Yes.” Ding Qiuhuang nodded and said, “Exalted Immortal, I actually obtained the World Avoiding Longevity Art long ago, but at first, I didn’t cultivate it, nor did I have any intention of cultivating it.
It wasn’t until I witnessed true horror that I understood that staying alive was everything. If I lose my life, all my ideals and beliefs are just dust, not worth mentioning.
I saw the scene of the Purple Sun Heaven collapsing with my own eyes. I saw with my own eyes many Dao Lords who were high and mighty in the past and ruled the starry skies of the myriad worlds burned to ashes in the flames of the Great Dao without even a chance to escape.
From then on, I began to cultivate the Longevity Art. I lived in seclusion and did not step into the mortal world. It’s fine as long as I can live. If I lived long enough, I might be able to live a third life…”
“You were not a Dao Lord at the time of the collapse of the heavens?” Cui Heng was a little surprised.
“I’ve embarrassed myself in front of Exalted Immortal.” Ding Qiuhuang said with some shame, “At that time, my Martial Dao was still based on the Immortal True Essence. I wasn’t even a Creator. I didn’t dare to ascend to the Purple Sun Heaven for a long time.
After the Purple Sun Heaven collapsed, I met a fellow Daoist from the Grand Plague Heaven. Only then did I cripple and regress my cultivation to refine the Immortal True Essence. In the end, I stepped into the realm of a Creator and used nearly 50,000 years to master a Dao Body.”
Calculating carefully, Ding Qiuhuang had probably spent nearly 100,000 years cultivating to the Dao Lord realm.
If not for the World Avoiding Longevity Art, he estimated that he might not be able to become a Dao Lord even after he died.
“This is indeed very difficult.” Cui Heng nodded slightly. Such cultivation time made him sigh in his heart. After all, he had only cultivated for less than 700 years.
Then, he asked, “How did you see the Purple Sun Heaven collapse?”
After all, Ding Qiuhuang was only a Sage King at that time.
If he had seen the Purple Sun Heaven collapse at a close distance, it would be impossible for him to survive until now. He would have long been reduced to ashes and ceased to exist.
“This…” Ding Qiuhuang’s expression became even more bitter when he heard this. Helpless, he could only take out a bronze fragment. “Exalted Immortal, I relied on this treasure to witness the destruction of the Purple Sun Heaven.”
“Oh?” Cui Heng stared at the bronze fragment with surprise in his eyes. With his realm, he naturally understood the nomological attributes intertwined on the fragment and instantly understood the effect.
It could reflect the scene of violent changes in the Great Dao laws and also open a stable passage between the Heaven Domain and the starry skies of the myriad worlds. This was probably the reason why Ding Qiuhuang, as a Dao Lord, could come to the starry skies of the myriad worlds.
However, this bronze fragment was clearly only a part of a complete treasure. It could even be said to be a small part. The effects were probably incomplete.
If it was in its complete state, Cui Heng guessed that this might be a treasure that could monitor the situation of the myriad worlds and allow the wielder to travel freely between the myriad worlds.
Perhaps it was something from the Heaven Realm?
“Where did you get this from?” Cui Heng asked.
“This treasure was obtained by me on the Golden Cloud Realm’s Tianmen Star. It’s said to be a fragment of a Heaven Realm treasure.” Ding Qiuhuang did not dare to hide anything and explained his experience of obtaining this fragment clearly, indicating the effect of this fragment.
“Since you saw the scene of the Purple Sun Heaven collapsing with your own eyes, do you know why the stars collapsed?” Cui Heng changed the topic. This was also what he had been puzzled about.
The essence of the Heaven Realm was not low.
This kind of strange place that gathered billions of Great Dao and endless laws was above ordinary space. The changes in the laws of its domain were enough to affect the starry skies of the myriad worlds under its jurisdiction, but it actually shattered and collapsed.
What kind of power could do such a thing?
Was it an Immortal King or a ferocious beast?
This was also one of the reasons why he had always believed that the system’s detection was correct. This was indeed a high-level Xianxia space-time dimension.
“I don’t know, but I have some guesses.” Ding Qiuhuang shook his head at first, then explained, “When the Purple Sun Heaven was destroyed, I saw the legendary Heaven Gate.
“It’s just that it’s different from the legendary holy and pure Heaven Gate. Through the scene reflected by that fragment, I saw that the Heaven Realm was filled with scarlet color and filled with an evil charm. Exalted Immortal, please wait…”
As he spoke, hundreds of small eyes suddenly grew on his face and he said, “I became like this after seeing the scarlet colors inside the Heaven Gate.
“However, these eyes don’t seem to be harmful. I even used this opportunity to successfully cultivate the Hundred-Eyes Dao Body and break through to the Creator realm.”
“What a strange power.” Cui Heng stared at the hundreds of small eyes on Ding Qiuhuang’s face.
He could clearly see that the pupils of these eyes were scarlet and looked very evil. However, there was indeed no negative aura, and they did not seem to be harmful.
Its essence seemed to be a harmless unknown power.
However, Cui Heng knew very well that the unknown usually meant greater danger. He first remembered the aura of this evil power to see if he could obtain relevant clues in the future.
He instinctively felt that this scarlet color was definitely not simple.
After all, after Taihong Star entered the Heaven Gate, what they saw was an endless snow-white color. There was nothing there, and it was boundless.
It was clearly different from the evil scarlet color that Ding Qiuhuang had described.
Such an obvious difference meant that some unknown change had happened.
Of course, the difference between the two events was 300,000 years. It was very normal for some natural changes to occur. There might not be any problems, but it was not wrong to maintain a cautious attitude.
“Other than these?” Cui Heng asked again. “How much do you know about the Heaven Realm?”
“Exalted Immortal, I don’t dare to learn information about the Heaven Realm,” Ding Qiuhuang said with a bitter expression. “Exalted Immortal, you should know that the Plague Imperial Palace was not an independent sect, but a branch of a large sect.
I established the Plague Imperial Palace 330,000 years ago because I obtained the inheritance of this large sect. At the same time, I learned that the large sect was called the Six Tribes Heavenly God Palace and knew that it was destroyed in a Heavenly Tribulation.”
“Heavenly Tribulation?” Cui Heng was surprised. “Was it done by the Heaven Realm again?”
“Yes, Exalted Immortal, there are some things you don’t know. In my era, Heavenly Tribulations are not rare,” Ding Qiuhuang explained. “The Heaven Realm ruled the myriad worlds. There were countless sects and experts.
If the number of experts becomes too great, it’s inevitable that there will be forces or people who are disrespectful to the Heaven Realm. In this situation, the Heaven Realm will decisively carry out a Heavenly Tribulation and completely destroy them.
Therefore, I also guessed that it might be because the Purple Sun Heaven did something that the Heaven Realm could not tolerate that it was destroyed.”
“For example, replacing the Immortal True Essence for cultivation?” Cui Heng said with a faint smile, “If that’s the case, the Heaven Realm is still very fair.”
“This… I’m afraid not.” Ding Qiuhuang shook his head and said, “Exalted Immortal, you asked about Zhou Juntian just now. Actually, I saw him once before the Purple Sun Heaven collapsed.
“At that time, he was still the disciple of Heaven Lord Ziyang. It’s said that he’s inextricably linked to the disappeared Heaven Realm.”
