This must be the statue of the Lord of Thunder God!
But looking at Zheng Fa, their anger subsided— it turns out that the one who toppled the statue was the Lord of Thunder God himself.
"Lord of Thunder God!"
Xiaoqing, however, cried out loud.
Zheng Fa turned his head, looked at Xiaoqing, and then gazed at the group of bewildered and disheartened citizens of Half Mountain City, slowly began to speak:
"Perhaps there really are Immortal Gods in this world..."
"But in our hearts, we cannot have supre gods..." Xiaoqing listened blankly as Zheng Fa finished his last sentence.
"This is what I want you all to rember."
Zheng Fa understood that the divide between immortals and mortals is not only in the heavens but perhaps also in the hearts of these people.
To erase the divide between immortals and mortals in the Jiushan Realm, you would need Quiet Bamboo, which is extrely difficult.
But... the divide in their hearts seems to be no simpler.
...
After causing a commotion with the toppling of the divine statue in the mortal world, Zheng Fa returned to Ten Thousand Immortals Island only to find that a personal cult had already begun on the forum.
There has been a particularly hot post these past few days.
The title of the post was incredibly audacious: "After seeing the phenona of the Sect Leader advancing to the middle period of the Golden Core Stage, how many Tianhe Venerables do you think the Sect Leader could beat if they were both at the sa cultivation stage?"
Zheng Fa:...
Even though Lady Xuanhua was making efforts to refine the Comprehensive Records, Zheng Fa’s cultivation had greatly improved, and the number of disciples in the Jiushan Realm with access to the Comprehensive Records had also surpassed one hundred.
But this post... it had already reached over a thousand replies!
Mainly, it was filled with argunts!
He looked at the posts people were making.
Unsure whether they were trying to please him or if they truly believed it— astonishingly, 60% of the people said he could overpower two Tianhe Venerables by himself, one in each hand.
And another 30% seed to think this group was too conservative, outright saying three as a starting point!
In the last 10% of replies, more than half said that they and Tianhe Venerable could go one-on-one without falling short.
A small minority, perhaps the more rational ones, felt that they did not know enough about Tianhe Venerable and stated it was too early to tell the outco between the two.
Hmm, there were one or two honest folk, or perhaps zealous fans of Tianhe Venerable, saying that the Tianhe Venerable was stronger.
No...
Is everyone so interested in this topic?
This question, Zheng Fa himself found hard to answer— his biggest reliance was on two Divine Skills and the Jiushan Realm.
Setting aside the Divine Skills, but Tianhe Venerable, he also has the Heavenly Stele Realm, right?
He wondered if he could control that thing in the Golden Core Stage...
He actually knew very little about Tianhe Venerable.
The number of replies to this post was still wildly increasing. As Zheng Fa carefully read through, he found that soone who was likely a die-hard fan of Tianhe Venerable was debating learned scholars in the post... Or rather, he was being verbally assaulted by a group of other disciples.
This person was unyielding and insisted that Tianhe Venerable’s strength during the Golden Core Stage was unmatched under the heavens.
But because he couldn’t present any convincing evidence, he ca across as stubborn and obnoxiously arguntative.
Not only did he have few allies, but he also got a thorough scolding from others.
...
"That person does make so sense, though."
After discussing the education reform matters of the Jiushan Realm with Master Pang and others, Zheng Fa heard Blood River Ancestor suddenly ntion that post.
"Hmm?"
"Tianhe Venerable... has a title, ’The Peerless Golden Core of All Ages.’"
"The Peerless Golden Core?"
"Yes, not just this epoch, nor the previous one, but... as far back as records go."
"Whose records?"
Zheng Fa asked a very critical question.
The history of Xuanwei Realm is extrely vague; every sect’s understanding of history is different— previously, Jiushan Sect had no such thing as the Divine Dao Era.
But the Xuanwei Five Sects might know so things about the first two epochs.
"At least the Supre Dao acknowledges this title." Blood River Ancestor shook his head, not waiting for Zheng Fa to ask further, and continued: "The Tianhe Sect, where Tianhe Venerable hails from... well, it might even be inferior to the forr Jiushan Sect."
"It’s uncertain whether they even have any Nascent Soul Stage masters."
Zheng Fa glanced at Blood River Ancestor, who, ever since Zheng Fa’s advancent to the middle period of the Golden Core Stage, seed subtly different, even volunteering to reveal so secrets.
So of Tianhe Venerable’s deeds were deliberately erased; his information is probably really only more available to these Demon Sects and the Five Sects.
What’s more, the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor was once killed by Tianhe Venerable, so he probably pays even more attention to him.
It was only natural for Blood River Ancestor to know so secrets.
"Actually, in his early years, Tianhe Venerable wasn’t well-known and didn’t stand out in that era... I’ve read in records that at that ti, there were many young cultivators who seed more talented and had better backgrounds than he did..."
"But after Core Formation, it was completely different."
"How so?"
Zhang, not just Zhang, but Master Pang, Elder Yuan, and even Junior Master Huang, all gathered around Blood River Ancestor, brimming with interest— it seems that gossip is not just liked by disciples.
"No one knows how he cultivated during the Golden Core Stage, but after entering the Golden Core Stage, he suddenly rose to prominence, unparalleled in fighting, soaring to the peak of Xuanwei!"
"Nobody could say for sure about his strength at that ti, but there are so records in my Great Freedom Demon Sect..."
"The Tianhe Sword Dao, it took shape during his Golden Core Stage, and after that, Sword Cultivators beca known as the strongest fighting cultivators in the Xuanwei Realm..."
Speaking of which, Blood River Ancestor was sowhat emotional: "Rumors say that the most profound cultivation thod of Tianhe Sword Dao has even been lost to the Tianhe Sect itself..."
"The most profound cultivation thod?"
Zheng Fa suddenly asked.
"That... Even the Saint Ancestor was rather vague about it..." Blood River Ancestor shook his head, "It seems to be called Refining Sword into Silk?"
"And sothing else... ’One Sword Births Ten Thousand Skills’ or ’One Sword Breaks Ten Thousand Skills’?"
It seems he really doesn’t rember; Blood River Ancestor just ntioned these few terms.
Master Pang and the others also listened in confusion, appearing completely clueless about what these were.
But Zheng Fa and Zhang exchanged glances, both thinking of sothing— the phrase ’Refining Sword into Silk’ was sothing they had seen before!
In Yan Wushuang’s little booklet, it was ntioned— Xie Qingxue once said, if you don’t cultivate the Nine Reincarnation Golden Core thod, you can’t reach the realm of Refining Sword into Silk.
Unexpectedly, now they are hearing this term again from Blood River Ancestor.
...
Yan Wushuang just felt that his senior sister, Xie Qingxue, had gone mad.
With his own eyes, he watched as his senior sister ground her teeth at her own Comprehensive Records one mont, stood up and paced around flushed with anger the next, and even raised her hand as if she wanted to smash this treasure, making his heart twitch.
He watched quietly for a while and felt it was best not to appear in front of his senior sister at this ti, secretly thinking of slipping away.
Unexpectedly, Xie Qingxue suddenly turned her head, staring venomously at him, her eyes flashing fiercely.
"Big...big senior sister?"
"Teach ."
"Huh?"
"I get annoyed the most by what you say, teach ."
"..."
