Chapter 883: Chapter 460 Taihe, Taikun, Taimiao_2

“Greetings to the Great Ancestor!”

The Jiang Clan leader and the Great Elders knelt to the ground.

A commanding voice emanated from the statue, “Changes are about to occur in the Domain, and when the Heavenly Ladder appears, beings will descend into the Divine Realm. Prepare yourselves.”

“Yes, Great Ancestor!”

The Jiang Clan leader and his peers said excitedly.

“How is the situation in the Divine Realm now? Report it in detail.”

“Yes, Great Ancestor!”

The Jiang Clan leader and the Great Elders began to recount the changes in the Divine Realm, including the disturbances and how the Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow were secretly orchestrating events behind the scenes.

Finally, the Jiang Clan leader said, “To inform the Great Ancestor, a rebellious descendant of our Jiang Family named Jiang Buping, whose Divine Soul once touched the Imperishable Qi, inexplicably did not lose his sanity and has even recovered. His strength far exceeds others in the same realm. To kill an Immortal Realm Warrior seems as easy as breathing for him.”

“Oh, is that so?”

The voice in the statue displayed a hint of surprise, then continued, “From what you’ve described, there must be a Supreme Sovereign hidden in the Divine Realm who has resolved the Imperishable Qi for him. But why target a descendant of our Jiang Family?

“From your description, Jiang Buping’s talents are extraordinary, making it somewhat reasonable that he caught someone’s eye. Handle this matter yourselves. As for the Supreme Sovereign behind him…”

The voice paused, then resumed, “One should not rashly offend a Supreme Sovereign. When the Heavenly Ladder opens, someone will naturally come to negotiate with him. Until then, weigh your actions carefully.”

The Jiang Clan leaders were slightly startled — even the Great Ancestor was reluctant to offend this so-called Supreme Sovereign?

However, it seemed it wasn’t that they couldn’t offend him but rather that they should judge the situation carefully.

“Yes, Great Ancestor!”

The leaders of the Jiang Family responded respectfully.

“Great Ancestor, what is a Supreme Sovereign?”

The Great Elder couldn’t help but ask.

“Martial Arts at the Supreme Sovereign Realm.”

The voice from the statue answered plainly.

It added, “Above the Immortal Realm is the Heavenly Union, above Heavenly Union is the Divine Venerate, the Martial Arts Divine Venerate Realm, and above the Divine Venerate Realm is the Supreme Sovereign Realm.”

The Jiang Clan leaders were profoundly shocked. They only knew that above the Immortal Realm was the Heavenly Union Realm, but the realms beyond were unknown to them.

In the past, these ancestors never spoke of it, merely advising them to focus on cultivation. When the time was right, they would ascend the Heavenly Ladder and leave the Divine Realm.

Today, the Great Ancestor had actually answered this question, perhaps because significant changes were imminent in the Domain.

“It is easy to reach Heavenly Union, difficult to ascend to Divine Venerate, and even rarer to become a Supreme Sovereign. As for what lies above Supreme Sovereign, you need not know — there are very few across the entire Domain.”

After finishing, the voice said, “That will be all. Weigh your actions carefully and avoid recklessness!”

“Yes, Great Ancestor!”

The glow from the statue faded, and the opened eyes closed. The descended consciousness had vanished.

The Jiang Clan leaders exchanged glances, their expressions solemn, realizing they needed to be more cautious in dealing with Jiang Buping.

“What is the result of the ambush against Jiang Buping?”

The Jiang Clan leader regained his authoritative demeanor and asked sternly.

“No news has returned yet!”

The Great Elder shook his head.

Looking at the Clan leader, he said gravely, “Jiang Buping will surely come to the Taikun Realm to seek an explanation. Jiang Tianming is undoubtedly marked for death; do you intend to mobilize the entire clan’s strength to protect Jiang Tianming?”

The other elders also silently regarded the Clan leader.

Jiang Tianming, the Clan leader’s third son, was highly favored and extremely talented.

Unfortunately, the talents exhibited by Jiang Buping now seemed even more monstrous. Jiang Buping, also a son of the Clan leader but born from a concubine, was initially overlooked.

It was only because of his exceptional talent that the elders had decided to bring him back to the family and treat him like a young prodigy. Little did they know that Jiang Tianming and Yun Yan’er would secretly plot against Jiang Buping.

Initially, the Great Elder personally investigated and concluded that Jiang Buping was crippled, which led to no further discussion, allowing him to be expelled.

Now, the discarded child of Taikun had risen in rebellion and severely embarrassed the Jiang Family, with many forces and powerful beings in the Divine Realm watching to see the family’s downfall.

The news that Jiang Buping was tainted by the Imperishable Qi but was unaffected was spread by Jiang Tianming and Yun Yan’er. Without the unspoken consent or even encouragement from this Clan leader, it would have been impossible to achieve this current situation.

Moreover, several elders and powerful members from the Yun Shang Sect had participated in the ambush against Jiang Buping.

Clearly, Jiang Tianming was afraid and sought to use external forces to eradicate Jiang Buping.

And this Clan leader, clearly partial to Jiang Tianming, had thus adopted a consenting stance.

The Jiang Clan leader looked at the Great Elder and others. Should he marshal the full strength of the clan to save Jiang Tianming?

“Let’s speak of this battle once there’s an outcome.”

The Jiang Clan leader spoke indifferently.

“Divine Realm in chaos, the Domain greatly transformed, how shall our Jiang Clan continue its legacy, I implore the clan leader to think thrice!”

The Great Elder spoke these words and then strode away.

In the Da Yan Realm, within the royal family of the Da Yan Dynasty, the Da Yan Emperor and several royal powerhouses were also awaiting instructions.

In the Taimiao Realm, within the Taimiao God Sect, an internal struggle had just come to an end, with several Elders of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable Realm having fallen in succession.

At this moment, in a small garden at the heart of the back mountain of the Taimiao God Sect, a few of the current Sect Masters entered this garden.

Xin Mengrou was among this group of people.

With her current level of capability, she normally wouldn’t qualify to enter this place, but because the Cultivation Technique she practiced was so unique, her status was extraordinary, and she was thus exceptionally allowed here.

“What is this?”

Seeing the enchanting small courtyard filled with blooming flowers and captivating scenery, Xin Mengrou’s heart trembled.

For a moment, she couldn’t discern whether this place was real or an illusion.

After entering the small courtyard, following the lead of the Sect Master, they arrived under a graceful pavilion.

“Greetings to the Upper Sect’s Venerable Emissary!”

The Taimiao Sect Master respectfully performed a salutation.

The elegant pavilion, whose doors had initially been closed, now opened up.

Entering the pavilion, Xin Mengrou took a quick glance around and noticed that there was only a sitting statue inside.

The statue of a woman, jade-white and flawless with a transcendentally beautiful appearance, seemed both surreal and mystifying, yet palpably real.

The Taimiao Sect Master was the first to prostrate himself before the statue.

Seeing this, Xin Mengrou hurriedly followed suit.

The statue’s eyes seemed to come alive, looking around, and for some reason, Xin Mengrou felt as if the statue’s gaze was specifically on her.

“The strife within Taimiao has ended, be it the Illusionary Path or the Supreme Sovereign Path, all are ultimately of Taimiao’s doctrine. From today forward, no infighting is allowed, as we are all people of the same sect, and should join hearts and forces to defend against external enemies.”

A cool voice emanated from the statue.

“Yes!”

The Taimiao Sect Master and the others swiftly responded with solemn expressions.

Following this, the Taimiao Sect Master reported on matters of the Divine Realm and the issue of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow infiltration, finally introducing the current situation of the Taimiao Illusionary Path.

“Heavenly Slaughter’s reach has extended too far, eradicate it.”

The voice from the statue was cold, showing neither joy nor anger.

“Yes!”

Then, the statue’s gaze fell upon Xin Mengrou.

“The Divine Realm’s Taimiao Sect has not seen such a gifted cultivator of the Illusionary Path for a long time; you are quite remarkable. From today, you shall take charge of the Taimiao Illusionary Path.”

Xin Mengrou was startled and hurriedly responded respectfully, “Disciple is of humble ability, insufficient to…”

“You will undergo closed-door training here under my guidance for some time. You will soon be able to break through to the Immortal Realm. The Illusionary Path is, after all, somewhat different from ordinary Martial Arts cultivation.”

“Yes, thank you, Venerable Emissary!”

Xin Mengrou felt a secret thrill in her heart and respectfully spoke.

The Taimiao Sect Master and others were all quite surprised, especially the current holder of the Taimiao Illusionary Path, who was completely astounded.

Could it be that Xin Mengrou’s talent was even more outstanding than anticipated, thus catching the eye of the Venerable Emissary and directly being appointed as the head of the Illusionary Path?

Regardless, Xin Mengrou taking over the Illusionary Path, especially being personally chosen and mentored by the Venerable Emissary, was undoubtedly a great fortune for the declining Illusionary Path.

When the Taimiao Sect Master and the others had left and only Xin Mengrou remained in the pavilion, a spectral figure of a woman emerged from the statue.

She appeared like a fantasy, extremely ethereal yet irresistibly captivating.

Xin Mengrou dared not look too much and stood with her head bowed respectfully.

“Your cultivation of the Illusionary Path is slightly different, have you gained some unique insight?”

The woman asked curiously.

“Disciple once received guidance from a senior, thus gaining some insight,” Xin Mengrou respectfully replied.

“Is that so? How is this senior of yours addressed?”

“I do not know!”

“If there is an opportunity, I must meet this senior of yours to see who they are, capable of guiding my Illusionary Path.”

Xin Mengrou bowed her head, her heart pounding. Could this woman be the founder of the Taimiao Illusionary Path, the ancestor of Taimiao?
