In the Supre Truth Society, the Supre Elder's aura was obscure, his expression inscrutable.
"Lynia's Transformation is both a calamity and a blessing."
"Within the Celestial Palace, disasters abound, but there is also a sliver of fortune."
"I hope the Second Elder can advance further."
Unlike the Sole Hall, which oversees Lynia's Transformation and constructs the Nine Heavens of the Immortal Realm, the Supre Truth Society's path is to break through the limits of the second layer of Yang Gods using Supre Truths, advancing to the third or even fourth layer of Yang Gods.
However, this path is extrely difficult.
"With the talent of Supre Great Sun, it might be possible..." The Supre Elder's expression was enigmatic, filled with hesitation. Sensing sothing, his eyes revealed a trace of curiosity. "As soon as he erged from seclusion, he headed straight for the Celestial Palace. He is a man of loyalty and righteousness.
However, once the gates of the Celestial Palace are closed, unless the Sole Hall issues a decree, no one can enter."
The Supre Elder murmured to himself.
"Red Fortune."
Suddenly, the Supre Elder called out softly.
At that mont, a young man in a red robe approached, bowing his head respectfully.
Red Fortune was a disciple of the Supre Elder.
However, this disciple's identity was special—he was not a native of the Immortal Realm.
But since he had entered the Immortal Realm and beco a Yang God, it ant he could no longer leave.
Once he left, he would be devoured by the indescribable.
Thus, Red Fortune had remained in the Six Heavens of the Immortal Realm.
"Disciple is here."
"Go to the place where the Celestial Palace opened and invite Supre Great Sun to the Supre Truth Society for a discussion," the Supre Elder instructed.
Red Fortune lowered his head, carefully considering his master's words.
Normally, such an invitation wouldn't require a disciple to deliver it personally.
The Supre Elder could transmit ssages across millions of miles with a single thought.
The fact that his master had called him to deliver the ssage likely held special significance.
After so thought, he roughly understood his master's intention.
"Disciple understands," Red Fortune said.
His master's intention was likely to inform Supre Great Sun about the state of the Six Heavens of the Immortal Realm and other worlds.
This information would be conveyed through him.
After bidding farewell to his master, Red Fortune's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
"To think that after so many years, the Immortal Realm has produced a prodigy like Supre Great Sun."
"I wonder how far he can go on the path of Supre Truth."
Red Fortune sighed, then stepped onto a teleportation array, his figure vanishing in an instant.
...
Qishan Market.
The market was bustling with activity.
Shen Wushen sat in a tavern, sipping wine with a look of anticipation in his eyes.
Lian i, dressed in a form-fitting white dress, had a revealing cutout at the chest, exposing a large expanse of smooth, fair skin. The hem of her dress clung to her curvaceous hips, exuding an alluring charm. Ȓ₳𐌽Ȱ₿Ë𐌔
The surrounding cultivators whispered among themselves, occasionally stealing glances at Lian i. Her bold and revealing attire, combined with her enchanting aura, made her stand out like a seductive fox spirit.
"Since the Celestial Palace opened, a stream of light has flown out every three months. I wonder what treasures we'll find this ti."
"This kind of light is only useful for us Nascent Soul cultivators. Otherwise, we wouldn't have a chance!"
"I hope to gain so opportunities from the light and advance to the mid-stage Nascent Soul realm."
"Sigh, I wonder if there's a chance to enter the Celestial Palace."
"Are you trying to get yourself killed? Even Yang Gods risk their lives entering the Celestial Palace. A Nascent Soul cultivator is weaker than an ant in front of a Yang God. How dare you even think about entering the Celestial Palace?"
Shen Wushen listened to the discussions calmly, his expression serene. "Senior Sister Lian i, after helping you collect a hundred strands of light, I'll leave."
Back then, in order to find cultivation techniques for Qi Yuan and help him send letters to Jin Li, Shen Wushen had owed Lian i many favors.
"You're such a blockhead," Lian i rolled her eyes at Shen Wushen. "Even the friends you make are all dull."
"Hey, that's not fair. How am I dull?" At that mont, a handso man in a blood-red robe entered the tavern. He looked at Shen Wushen with a smile. "It's been a hundred years since we last t."
Lian i glanced at Qi Yuan, her expression turning strange. "Shen Wushen, you have friends in the Six Heavens too?"
Shen Wushen was shocked to see Qi Yuan, his face showing a hint of unease.
"Brother Qi... this is a friend I t in the lower realm."
"The lower realm?" Lian i was montarily stunned, her expression turning serious. "So he's an Yin God senior."
Anyone who ascended from the lower realm to the Immortal Realm needed to be at least an Yin God.
Lian i was a Nascent Soul cultivator. Although so rogue Yin Gods might not have a higher status than her, she still had to show them respect.
"Why are you here? Looking for the light?" Qi Yuan asked casually.
It had to be said, Shen Wushen had helped him a lot by collecting cultivation techniques and delivering letters to Jin Li.
When Qi Yuan arrived at Qishan Market and sensed Shen Wushen's presence, he naturally ca to see him.
"Sort of," Shen Wushen replied, though even he felt a bit awkward.
After all, the events that had transpired in the Six Heavens of the Immortal Realm had given him many thoughts.
He had so guesses about Qi Yuan's true identity and strength.
But... such a terrifying existence now appeared before him like an ordinary cultivator, chatting with him, making him feel as if he were in a dream.
"Why are you here? For the Celestial Palace?" Shen Wushen asked.
Lian i was montarily stunned. Shen Wushen's question was a bit strange.
What did he an by "for the Celestial Palace"?
"Yes, I plan to enter the Celestial Palace and take a look," Qi Yuan answered truthfully.
Lian i was no longer stunned. She covered her mouth and laughed. "Junior Brother, look... your friend is also a blockhead."
Only a blockhead would talk about entering the Celestial Palace.
Only Yang God experts like the Mountain Lord of Futu Mountain had the chance to be summoned into the Celestial Palace.
"Don't spread rumors. I'm not a blockhead!" Qi Yuan said seriously. "I'm handso and charming."
When it ca to blockheads, he thought of Zhu Bajie.
He was nothing like Zhu Bajie.
The only similarity was that Zhu Bajie was the Marshal of Heavenly Canopy, and Qi Yuan was handso.
Hearing this, Lian i's smile widened. "I guess only soone like you would be willing to be friends with Shen Wushen."
Shen Wushen was aloof and stubborn, with few friends in Futu Mountain.
The friends he did make were "a mixed bag."
"Aren't you the sa?" Qi Yuan rolled his eyes at Lian i. "Don't call a blockhead, or I'll give you a nickna."
Lian i laughed so hard she could barely contain herself. "Go ahead, give a nickna. I'm listening."
"Hmm..." Qi Yuan thought of the "Nose-Picking Sister."
Lian i didn't pick her nose.
"Big Butt Sister!" Qi Yuan glanced at Lian i's curvaceous hips.
When giving nicknas, one should always highlight the most prominent feature.
Like Purple Fate Xue, the "Horned Sister."
Or Purple Fate Lu, the "Pink Horn Sister."
Hearing this, Lian i laughed even more heartily. "Junior Brother Wushen, your friend has managed to survive until now without being beaten to death. He must have so skills!"
If other female cultivators heard such a nickna, they might consider it harassnt and retaliate violently.
But she was different. She actually liked the nickna, finding it unique.
"Why would I be beaten to death?" Qi Yuan was puzzled. "Killing soone over a disagreent? The atmosphere in the cultivation world is terrible!"
Qi Yuan sighed.
Cultivators shouldn't let their cultivation turn them into violent individuals.
People should strive for harmony.
Lian i laughed again.
Beside her, Shen Wushen remained silent.
Killing over a disagreent?
Qi Yuan had done that more often, hadn't he?
"The atmosphere in the cultivation world is indeed bad. Sigh, everyone is so hypocritical," Lian i lanted. "I dress like this precisely to give them sothing to look at, but all they do is sneak glances."
As she spoke, Lian i puffed out her chest.
Qi Yuan nodded in agreent. "Not only are they hypocritical, but they also often encounter bullies and pretentious hypocrites!"
"Great minds think alike. The atmosphere in the cultivation world is terrible," Lian i said with a seductive smile, though it was unclear whether she ant it sincerely or not.
"There's also no trust between people," Qi Yuan added.
Lian i was a trustworthy woman, going out in such revealing attire.
"Shen Wushen, wait here for a bit. I'm going to the Celestial Palace. If I co across any light, I'll bring it back for you," Qi Yuan said, cutting to the chase.
eting Shen Wushen and exchanging greetings had already drained his social energy.
After all, he was socially awkward. Continuing to chat over a al would shatter him.
"Alright, thank you, Brother Qi!" Shen Wushen said earnestly.
Lian i watched Qi Yuan's departing figure with a playful smile. "Your friend is quite interesting. Aside from his tendency to boast and his eccentricities, he does have so redeeming qualities."
Shen Wushen remained silent.
At that mont, a deep, resonant voice suddenly echoed from the heavens, like a thunderclap on a clear day.
The cultivators in the market instinctively stepped outside, looking up at the vast sky.
"It's the shadow of the Celestial Palace!"
"What's going on? Why has the Celestial Palace suddenly appeared?"
"What's happening?"
Countless cultivators were bewildered.
In the distance, the Yang God experts observing the Celestial Palace were also filled with shock.
"Why has the Celestial Palace reappeared?"
"Is that... Supre Great Sun?"
"Is he trying to force his way into the Celestial Palace? How is that possible?"
"The waters of the Celestial Palace run deep. Even multiple Supres working together couldn't open it. Is Supre Great Sun asking for trouble?"
"Wait, if he dares to try, does that an... he has the confidence?"
At that mont, in the Star Sea, the projections of countless Yang God stars suddenly shone brighter, their light converging on this location.
They wanted to see how Supre Great Sun would enter the Celestial Palace!
anwhile, the cultivators in the area were equally confused, unaware of what was happening.
They only knew that sothing terrifying was unfolding.
At that mont, a gentle yet humorous voice resounded through the heavens.
"Celestial Palace, open your doors!"
In the sky, the shadow of the Celestial Palace trembled.
Divine energy surged, and a myriad of colors spilled forth, dazzling and mysterious.
An ancient, extraordinary aura leaked out, as if from ti immorial.
Red Fortune, witnessing this scene, was filled with astonishnt.
"With a single command, Supre Great Sun has summoned the Celestial Palace!"
"How did he do it?"
"Could it be that Supre Great Sun has reached so agreent with the Sole Hall?"
This was the only explanation Red Fortune could think of.
Perhaps Supre Great Sun's defeat of Taihuang Palace had led to so connection with the Sole Hall.
Thus, he was able to summon the Celestial Palace.
"Won't open? Won't open?" In the sky, Qi Yuan looked at the gates of the Celestial Palace, his expression calm. "If you won't open, I'll force my way in!"
In an instant, his figure surged toward the gates of the Celestial Palace.
In the blink of an eye.
The Celestial Palace vanished.
Qi Yuan's figure also disappeared without a trace.
The Yang Gods observing this scene were shaken.
"Did he... enter?"
"He entered the Celestial Palace?"
"He actually entered!"
"How is that possible!"
"Could it be... Supre Great Sun has truly connected with the Sole Hall?"
This was the only explanation they could think of.
Any other explanation would be too far-fetched!
...
Inside the Celestial Palace.
A flash of light appeared.
The Purple Fate Ancestor's eyes flickered with surprise.
"Let's go."
The Lord of White Dragon Abyss didn't hesitate, her face veiled as her figure vanished in an instant.
Where they had stood, light fell, and all things withered and dissolved.
Once they reached a safe place, the Purple Fate Ancestor let out a sigh of relief.
"This ti, the Celestial Palace is different from before. This Eternal Calamity Radiance can even corrode Supre Truths. Only Great Supre Truths can resist it slightly," the Purple Fate Ancestor said, still shaken.
In just a few decades since entering the Celestial Palace, he had faced several crises.
Although the crises weren't too severe, and he could easily avoid them with his strength, the danger was slowly increasing.
The Eternal Calamity Radiance was also becoming more prevalent.
"What is this Eternal Calamity Radiance... it seems to corrode even the laws of the universe. Only Great Supre Truths can resist it slightly," the Purple Fate Ancestor wondered.
"It's similar to the Primordial Chaos Light from before the world was ford," the Lord of White Dragon Abyss said.
Before the world was ford, there were no rules, only chaos.
With the world and living beings ca rules.
This Eternal Calamity Radiance seed to oppose the rules, capable of corroding them.
As she spoke, the Lord of White Dragon Abyss glanced at the Purple Fate Ancestor, her gaze curious. "Purple Fate Ancestor, compared to before, your strength has improved significantly.
Last ti, when Taihuang Palace ambushed you, how did you survive the Root Demon Tribulation?"
This ti, the Purple Fate Ancestor had displayed formidable strength within the Celestial Palace.
He was stronger than most third-tier Supre Truth experts.
His improvent was undoubtedly due to surviving the Root Demon Tribulation.
But based on the Lord of White Dragon Abyss's understanding of the Purple Fate Ancestor, he shouldn't have been able to survive the last Root Demon Tribulation.
Even if he had barely survived, he would have been severely injured, with less than ten percent of his strength remaining.
Yet, the Purple Fate Ancestor was now in peak condition, stronger than ever.
"That's... a secret," the Purple Fate Ancestor said smugly.
"Could it be related to Supre Great Sun?" the Lord of White Dragon Abyss asked casually, her gaze fixed on the Purple Fate Ancestor.
When no other explanation could be found, the simplest assumption was that it was related to soone close and powerful.
ntioning Supre Great Sun, the Lord of White Dragon Abyss's expression beca complicated.
Back then, she had wanted Supre Great Sun to father her child.
Unfortunately, Supre Great Sun had refused, leaving her disappointed.
But she was grateful that she hadn't forced Qi Yuan, or else White Dragon Abyss might have beco the second Taihuang Palace.
"That... I don't know either," the Purple Fate Ancestor denied.
Although the denial was pointless, he still had to deny it.
The fact that Qi Yuan could resolve the Root Demon Tribulation was sothing that needed to be kept secret for as long as possible.
Fortunately, Qi Yuan had the strength of a Supre. If he were only at the first layer of Yang Gods, or a minor or third-tier Great Supre Truth expert, he would have long been targeted by many powerful figures, who would have forced him to help others survive the Root Demon Tribulation.
For Great Supre Truth experts, the Root Demon Tribulation was too dangerous.
To grow stronger, one had to survive the Root Demon Tribulation.
Many Great Supre Truth experts had stopped improving their strength because they feared the arrival of the Root Demon Tribulation.
When the Purple Fate Ancestor's Root Demon Tribulation had arrived last ti, and he had survived unscathed, it had naturally drawn the attention of many Yang Gods.
However, at that ti, Supre Great Sun's reputation was at its peak, having destroyed Taihuang Palace. Those with ulterior motives didn't dare to inquire further.
