The halls of the Celestial Soldier Departnt in Chonglou were entirely cast from black Profound Iron, exuding an aura of solemnity and killing intent.
Inside the departnt, immortal clerks were bent over their desks, handling stacks of docunts.
Suddenly, a blue Jade Scroll self-initiated and floated up. The words "Shi Jian" and the runes of "Lower Realm Invasion Application" on the Jade Scroll flashed continuously, attracting the attention of the attending Profound Immortal.
This middle-aged Profound Immortal, dressed in a military Daoist Robe embroidered with silver patterns, had a stern face. His eyebrows suddenly rose as his fingers brushed over the Jade Scroll:
"Interesting."
The middle-aged Profound Immortal condensed a pale blue Communication Light Silk at his fingertips and said softly, "Senior Brother, Heaven-Cutting Daoist Shi Jian has actively submitted an application for a Lower Realm invasion."
...
anwhile, deep within Chonglou Heaven, in the "Cold Cloud Hall," mist swirled like icy silk.
Cold Nether Daoist, wearing a Moon White Daoist Robe with flowing cloud patterns embroidered on the corners, had a handso yet sowhat sinister appearance.
He was the eldest disciple under the White Cloud Celestial Immortal. In the absence of the White Cloud Celestial Immortal who was in secluded cultivation, he dealt with various affairs, holding a significant position in the military system of Chonglou Heaven.
At this mont, Cold Nether Daoist heard the communication and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth:
"Old Hesha must have fully explained the dangers of the Lower Realm invasion, yet he insists on volunteering. Truly, it’s the gambling nature from a rogue background."
The Female Cultivator standing beside the Jade Throne, wearing a light pink Daoist Robe with a jade flute hanging from her waist, laughed softly at these words, her voice as pleasant as the sound of silver bells:
"Isn’t this perfect? The Lower Realm is perilous, and by deploying our pawns casually, we can preemptively eliminate a threat."
Since White Cloud Daoist achieved Heavenly Immortal two thousand years ago and participated in the distribution of the Ming Guang fortune, even the White Cloud Temple beca one of the five major Immortal Sects.
Thus, the White Cloud Celestial Immortal beca an absolute conservative, and his disciples beca key in balancing the rogue sects.
In recent years, the decline of the rogue sects has all been thanks to the efforts of the White Cloud faction!
Cold Nether Daoist nodded slowly: "Indeed. Host a banquet for Bai i, my fellow Daoist, on my behalf!"
The Female Cultivator bowed and followed the order, lightly waving the jade flute, sending a Communication Light Silk hidden in the clouds towards the direction of the Celestial Soldier Departnt.
...
Half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
Inside the Heaven-Cutting Hall, Chen Sheng was sitting cross-legged on the Gathering Spirit platform, cultivating, when the celestial qi swirling around him suddenly paused.
A pale golden command Jade Scroll penetrated the hall door and floated in front of him.
The runes on the Jade Scroll clearly read, "Imdiately proceed to the Xitian Gate Parade Ground to assemble and join the team for the invasion of the Seven Azure Realms."
"It’s finally here."
Chen Sheng opened his eyes, a glint flashing through them.
He stood and walked to the weapon rack inside the hall.
When he donned the Profound Iron Chain Armor, it automatically fit his form, with runes flowing between the armor plates, emitting a faint defensive celestial light.
Grasping the Splitting Sky Spear in his hand, the suppressive runes on the spear awakened, imparting a heavy pressure. Once attired, the green robe paired with silver armor, made him appear all the more heroic and extraordinary.
...
The Xitian Gate Parade Ground was vast and boundless.
At this mont, five thousand Celestial Soldiers clad in silver armor were arrayed, their formation neat as if cut by a knife, the sound of armor clashing crisp and unified, exuding an aura of solemnity and killing intent.
In the center of the parade ground stood a gigantic man like a mountain. He wore a gilded Battle Armor, with a beast-faced helt, emanating the terrifying pressure of a Heavenly Immortal. He was the commander of this invading army, the Giant Spirit Celestial Immortal.
The voice of the Giant Spirit Celestial Immortal was like thunder, resounding:
"I am Giant Spirit, your commander for this battle!"
"The fifty Profound Immortals behind shall be your centurions, each leading a team of a hundred. In battle, absolute obedience to commands is required, or risk facing military punishnt!"
With the concluding words, fifty Profound Immortal auras soared into the sky. The Profound Immortals in Purple Robes stepped out slowly, each scanning the Celestial Soldiers below, selecting their subordinates.
Bai i Profound Immortal’s voice was cold:
"Number 9741, Shi Jian, you will be under my command."
With Chen Sheng’s Realm, he caught a hint of hidden malice from the other party in an instant!
"The intelligence of the four Major Sects is indeed swift."
Chen Sheng thought to himself, but his expression remained unchanged.
He had long anticipated that volunteering would draw suppression, yet he hadn’t expected the other party to act so quickly, directly assigning him under the command of a centurion hostile to rogue sects.
Conspiracy?
In the face of absolute power, it’s nothing more than child’s play.
...
At the peak of Cangwu Mountain in the Seven Azure Realms.
A Demon Emperor Hall made of millions of Obsidian stones rose from the ground, with countless Luminous Beads inlaid in the do, illuminating the hall as bright as day.
This was the center of the Seven Azure demon kingdom, the place where ten thousand demons paid homage.
At this mont, seventy-two Demon Kings had gathered in the hall, bowing their heads, not daring to breathe heavily, all eyes fixed on the figure on the throne, filled with reverence.
On the throne, with a ferocious lion’s head and exposed fangs, surrounded by a faint aura of Origin demon energy.
The Green-faced Demon King at the front stepped forward quickly, his voice trembling:
"Saint Monarch, those Celestial Soldiers have already set up a military formation at the void nodes, led by a Heavenly Immortal nad Giant Spirit. They are clamoring in the sky, boasting that they will flatten our Cangwu Mountain and capture you to take you to the Heavenly Court to face judgnt!"
"Hmph!"
A cold snort echoed from the throne, carrying the residual reverberation of a deafening lion’s roar, the Obsidian floor of the hall cracking with fine lines.
Chen Sheng stood up abruptly, his black beast-patterned robe fluttering without wind, as demon energy around his body soared, transforming into a giant azure lion’s shadow with a mane tumbling like flas:
"Those Heavenly Court scum co rather quickly."
"We have been thriving in this Seven Azure Realm, living free and happy, never stepping foot into the Immortal Realm, yet they besiege us ti and again. They’re simply ddling in others’ affairs like a dog chasing a mouse!"
He stepped down from the throne, with each step accompanied by a muffled beast roar in the hall, causing the seventy-two Demon Kings to kneel simultaneously:
"Gladly follow the Saint Monarch into battle, kill every last Heavenly Court hound!"
Chen Sheng raised his hand to halt the demons: "Friends, wait in the hall, I’ll be back shortly, ensuring none of those Celestial Soldiers return!"
With that, his figure flickered, transforming into a demon gale, breaking through the do of the Demon Emperor Hall and soaring skyward.
...
No doubt, the Saint Monarch who shook the Seven Azure Realm was none other than an incarnation Chen Sheng sent to this realm.
Three hundred years ago, his Divine Thought attached to the body of a young azure lion cub.
This azure lion was originally a spiritual species nurtured by the origin of the Seven Azure Realm, naturally bearing a trace of origin fortune.
With Chen Sheng’s Divine Thought taking the lead, he beca victorious, slaying a giant serpent at the age of ten, consolidating the Demon Pill, and sweeping through the demons of Cangwu Mountain to unify the Southern Ridge by thirty.
At fifty, he broke through to True Immortal using the Power of Origin, establishing the Seven Azure demon kingdom, and by one hundred, with supre demon power, severed the fortune network established here by the Heavenly Court.
At two hundred, leveraging the Power of Origin, he smoothly broke through to the Heavenly Immortal realm, becoming the true ruler of this realm.
Not just that.
To be precise, the turmoil ntioned earlier by Venerable Hesha about the Small Thousand Worlds was in large part orchestrated by him.
His incarnations were sent into nurous Small Thousand Worlds, embodying either a Demon Emperor or a Human Race Saint Monarch, or living as a reclusive cultivator, causing storms in their wake.
So severed the Heavenly Court’s fortune network, others instigated origin upheavals, and so nurtured heaven-defying prodigies...
This ticulous plotting.
Firstly, it was to delay the expansion of the Heavenly Emperor’s dynasty, and secondly, to allow his incarnations, through the origins of various Small Thousand Worlds, to accumulate foundations.
Thirdly, it was for the day when—coordinating with his incarnations infiltrated into the Heavenly Court—to establish military rits with ease.
