418: Chapter 151 Great Fortune Will Take Action 418: Chapter 151 Great Fortune Will Take Action Li Ping’an, aboard the Cloud Boat, had just reached the ruins of Heaven when news of his sudden enlightenment reached the headquarters of the East Alliance.

Nothing else, someone else had made a breakthrough on the journey.

Li Ping’an initially intended only to socialize with a few officials of the East Alliance, so he seriously pondered the questions they posed and gave his own insights.

As a result, two elders immediately had an epiphany, crying out ‘I have understood’ and rushing back to the headquarters of the East Alliance to enter seclusion.

Li Ping’an, regarding this, had an untroubled state of mind.

He had even begun to suspect that this ability of his to enlighten others was actually a scheme of the Heavenly Dao.

Such discussions, realizations, and breakthroughs were merely a minor episode.

After the Cloud Boat entered the periphery of the ruins of Heaven, Tianli, the old man, took the initiative to call on Li Ping’an and Qing Su to the top of the Cloud Boat to witness the grand scenery of the ruins of Heaven together.

In the sky, there were endless Immortal Palaces, and the ground was littered with countless rubble and ravines.

Li Ping’an spread his Spiritual Sense as far as he could, and all he saw were palace ruins.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Was the Ancient Heavenly Court this vast?”

“The entire ruins of Heaven spread out the Nine Heavens of the Ancient Court, so it feels vast, but in truth, many palaces are buried underground, reduced to dust in the great war,” the old man Tianli said with a sigh.

“If ten Daluo Golden Immortals exerted their Great Divine Power and pulled these ruins into the sky, they could only restore half of the splendor of the Ancient Heavenly Court as it was,” he continued.

“The truth is, had the Hundred Clans not been embroiled in their internal strife, had they not fallen too quickly, had not the Witch Clan withstood most of the Heavenly Emperor’s pressure, our Human Race would never have been able to overthrow the Ancient Heavenly Court,” he added.

Li Ping’an nodded slowly, then asked, “Senior, after overthrowing the Ancient Heavenly Court, did the Hundred Clans still retain a great deal of power?”

“More than a great deal of power,” Tianli said.

“In fact, there were many hidden dangers.

When our Human Race fought against Heaven, it was a victory of the weak over the strong.

It was Emperor Suiren who found a way to counterattack the Heavenly Court at the balance point among many powerful forces.

“The Witch Clan sustained the Zhou Tian Star Battle Array, and eight of the Twelve Ancestor Witches fought to their last breath and killed the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.

“The reason the Witch Clan managed to win was also that the Three Pure Ones secretly took action.

A Tai Chi Diagram unfolded, and the Eastern Emperor Bell was cast into the Chaos Sea, bringing the invincible Eastern Emperor Taiyi to his bitter end,” he explained.

“Afterward, our Human Race broke through the Heavenly Court, Emperor Suiren fought to his death with Emperor Jun, annihilating the Golden Crow Clan.

Both the Witch Clan and the Human Race were greatly wounded.

“Especially since Emperor Suiren left a caution on his deathbed…

if the Human Race wanted to continue to stand in the world for a long time, we must not practice demonic arts.

Those experts led by Emperor Suiren had fallen to demonhood out of true nature, left no way out, and extinguished the Golden Crow Clan,” said Tianli.

“After we toppled the Nine Heavens, half of the Hundred Clans still retained their vitality, but they could only elevate our Human Race as the master of Heaven and Earth as agreed.

“About a hundred thousand demon soldiers of the Human Race nearly exhausted their strength and followed Emperor Suiren in his passing, which laid the groundwork for the later turmoil of Chiyou,” he revealed.

Li Ping’an nodded slowly again and asked, “Senior, compared to the time when the Human Race overthrew the Heavenly Court, has our battle power recovered?”

“We’re still a step behind,” he said.

Qing Su also seemed surprised, “Did our Human Race have so many Golden Immortals at that time?”

“No, but many Heavenly Immortals were able to burn their essence, spirit, and vitality to temporarily fight against the Golden Immortals,” Tianli replied with emotion.

“That’s why we, the old immortals who survived from the ancient times, are very content just to be alive.

“I always think that this world should be handed over to you young people, but looking around, only a few hundred of the Human Race have broken through to Golden Immortal since the ancient times, and in the East Continent, a Golden Immortal appears only once every hundred or two hundred years.

“Admittedly, that’s much faster than those great demons in the Western Continent, but the Human Race today is still led by the older generation of Golden Immortals,” he said.

Li Ping’an gravely said, “The fall of the ancient era was just sixty to seventy thousand years ago, which to this world, was but a fleeting moment.”

“Indeed,” Tianli laughed.

“Who knows if there will be any calamities in the future?

“If there is another great calamity, it would be up to us old folks to face it.

“Look, Ping’an, there is the headquarters of the East Alliance ahead, comprising a total of three hundred and sixty halls, over one thousand six hundred Immortal Mountains, sheltering a million soldiers of our Human Race and thousands of Golden Immortal servants, including a Taiyi Golden Immortal master and ninety-nine Golden Immortal Peak experts!

“If you can make a name for yourself here, you can go anywhere in the East Continent!” he exclaimed with lofty spirits, laughing heartily with his hands behind his back.

Li Ping’an, however, wore a solemn expression.

Qing Su asked, “Apprentice, what do you see?”

Li Ping’an countered without answering, “Master, what do you see?”

“I see a sky filled with colorful auroras,” the brightness in Qing Su’s eyes grew, “many strong cultivators with whom I can continually practice and spar.”

Tianli also asked, “Tell us, Ping’an, what do you see?”

“I see a great mountain, pressing down on the old ruins of the Heavenly Court,” Li Ping’an softly said.

Li Ping’an, holding the little White Tiger, spoke slowly:

“The Hundred Clans still hold onto formidable battle power, and the Heavenly Dao is continuously recovering.

“Within the Three Thousand Worlds beyond this realm, more beings are transforming into demons.

“A large hand is reaching out from the west, and the Holy Mother has been away from Holy Mother Palace for over six thousand years…”

“Enough, enough!

Don’t speak of it!” Tianli, the old man, frowned and interrupted:

“The way you talk, it feels like our Human Race is on the verge of a great disaster!

“However, the Western Sect is indeed a troubling issue.

Now, we fear that the Western Sect might conspire with the remnants of the Hundred Clans within the Holy Mother Palace,” he said.

Li Ping’an smiled and said, “Senior, have you ever heard a saying?”
