239: Chapter 238: Reaching the 33rd Heaven (4th update, asking for subscription) 239: Chapter 238: Reaching the 33rd Heaven (4th update, asking for subscription) An hour had passed.

The sound of the Nine Heavens Immortal Sound echoed, and from afar a thousand-zhang Heavenly Gate appeared, flanked by two golden pillars that seemed to have stood there since time immemorial.

A shimmering gold plaque was displayed above between the two pillars.

The Immortal Light shimmered, and auspicious aura radiated in thousands of streams.

Furthermore, the shadow of Immortal Cranes and spiritual birds flickered in and out of view within the Heavenly Gate.

The plaque bore three big characters: South Heavenly Gate!

In front of the South Heavenly Gate,

stood the Four Great Divine Generals, resplendent in glorious golden light and vast immortal aura—one held a treasure sword, another a treasure umbrella, another had a pipa, and yet another’s arms were entwined with a serpent.

These four were the guardians of the South Heavenly Gate: the King of Holding Country from the East, the King of Growing Prosperity from the South, the King of Wide Vision from the West, and the King of All-Encompassing Knowledge from the North.

“How dare you, a mere mortal who has not yet attained immortality, recklessly intrude into Heaven?” the King of Holding Country from the East commanded sternly, his golden light surging as if he was about to slay the Wuhua disciple on the spot.

Gazing at the splendid immortal might radiating from the King of Holding Country, the Wuhua disciple trembled and bowed, saying, “I am but a disciple of the Wuhua Immortal, and would not dare to intrude into the Heavenly Palace rashly.

Yet, the Yuan Mo has emerged, completely destroying our Heavenly Capital City.

I have come urgently to report this matter to Heaven.”

“What…

what?”

“Is the Yuan Mo still alive?”

“How is this possible?”

Upon the Wuhua disciple’s words, the Four Great Heavenly Kings exclaimed in shock, their faces turning deathly pale.

The chaos caused by the Yuan Mo ten thousand years ago had led to the fall of many Heavenly Immortals and Gods.

The Four Great Heavenly Kings had personally experienced that war—how could they be unaware of the Yuan Mo’s terror?

“That can’t be right, if the Yuan Mo is indeed still alive, how could it be possible for you to survive his clutches?” the King of Wide Vision angrily rebuked.

“The King may not be aware, but there was a Daoist who battled fiercely with the Yuan Mo, piercing through thousands of miles of Heaven and Earth.

Had this Daoist’s unfathomable Immortal Law not suppressed the Yuan Mo, he certainly would not have spared me,” the Wuhua disciple reported truthfully.

“Hiss!”

A sharp intake of breath emanated from the mouths of the Four Great Heavenly Kings, they glanced at each other, each seeing the astonishment in the other’s eyes.

To consider that the Yuan Mo had once had the cultivation of a Taiyi Golden Immortal—they, even the four together, were no match for him at all.

And from the description given by the Wuhua disciple, this mysterious Daoist was seemingly able to suppress the Yuan Mo; could it be that this Daoist was also a Taiyi Golden Immortal?

“This matter is beyond our authority; we must immediately report to the Jade Emperor.

Come with me.”

Not daring to delay, the King of Holding Country directly summoned his Immortal Cloud, taking the Wuhua disciple and heading towards the Heavenly Palace.

The Heavenly Palace consisted of Thirty-Three Layers, ascending from bottom to top including the Luanyun Palace, Kui Shui Palace, Five Thunder Palace, Jile Palace…

The Dou Niu Palace, situated in the center, was the sacred place of the Jade Emperor, the Three Realms Supreme.

Below the Jade Emperor were three Great Emperors named among the Heavenly Palace:

The Big Dipper Palace with the True Martial Demon-Vanquishing Great Emperor, the Gouchen Palace with the Gouchen Great Emperor, and the Ziwei Palace with the Ziwei Great Emperor.

These three Great Emperors had been legendary for a long time, and whether in terms of their cultivation or status, they were exceedingly revered.

Though seemingly a notch below the Jade Emperor in rank, they were not governed by the laws of Heaven, and very few had ever seen these three Great Emperors—existing in name within the Heavenly Realms alone.

The King of Holding Country hurried on the Immortal Cloud towards the Turquoise Pool since today was the Peach Blossom Festival hosted by the Queen Mother of the West, with the Jade Emperor himself in attendance, alongside a host of Immortals—a grand assembly in the Heavenly Realms.

Soon.

Outside the Turquoise Pool, having been announced by an Immortal Official, the King of Holding Country, accompanied by his premier disciple from Wuhua, hastened into the Turquoise Pool and saw a group of Immortals standing beside the pool, looking puzzledly at the two newcomers.

In the center of the Turquoise Pool, the Supreme of the Three Realms, the Jade Emperor, dressed in a blue robe and with a face radiant as a fine jade, was accompanied by the Queen Mother of the West.

They too were sizing up the King of Holding Country, wondering why he had appeared in such haste.

“Jade Emperor, something terrible has happened; Yuan Mo has been reborn!”

The King of Holding Country prostrated himself as his words fell, and suddenly silence enveloped the entire Turquoise Pool.

Then, the clamor of the group of Immortals ensued.

“How dare you, King of Holding Country, mislead the crowd with demon talks?

Yuan Mo was severely injured and dying ten thousand years ago and had been suppressed in the Reverse Channel, sealed by us.

How could he still be alive?” Master Zhang stepped forward, loudly rebuking the King of Holding Country.

“Hmph!”

Suddenly, the Pagoda-Bearing King Li Jing, holding the Linglong Tower, advanced from the crowd, bowed to the Jade Emperor, and said, “The King of Holding Country has always been prudent in his words and actions; he would never mislead people.

Please, Your Majesty, discern the truth.”

The Supreme of the Three Realms, the Great Jade Emperor, slowly nodded and gently asked, “King of Holding Country, you say that Yuan Mo is reborn; do you have any proof?”

The King of Holding Country, not daring to delay, promptly pushed forward the premier disciple from Wuhua, who tremblingly spoke up: “I am merely a disciple of the Wuhua Immortal, initially cultivating in seclusion in the Heavenly Capital City, hoping to attain Immortality soon.

But today, the sky suddenly exploded, and millions of ordinary people in my Heavenly Capital City died miserably.

My fellow disciples and I went to investigate and saw Yuan Mo fighting a Daoist, causing heaven and earth to shatter…”

As the disciple from Wuhua quickly recounted the events, the Wuhua Immortal himself stepped out among the Immortals, knelt before the Jade Emperor, and sorrowfully said, “Indeed, this man is my disciple, and he wouldn’t dare to fabricate.

Please, Your Majesty, dispatch troops to eradicate Yuan Mo.”

“Ten thousand years ago, Yuan Mo was a Taiyi Golden Immortal.

If he is reborn today, he will certainly cast the Three Realms into chaos.

But who is this Daoist who could confront him on equal footing?” asked the Jade Emperor doubtfully.

Not only did the Jade Emperor have this question, but so too did the Immortals present.

Before the Jade Emperor could ask again, an extremely terrifying explosion sounded from the far distance.

“Your Majesty, something terrible has happened.

Two individuals have fought their way from the Lower Realm to the Heavenly Palace…”

A trembling Immortal Official reported this, but before he could finish speaking, an extremely terrifying scene unfolded.

In Heaven, across the Thirty-Three Heavens,

The Primordial Spirit, bathed in blood, violently swung the Bronze Immortal Scripture, causing dreadful Taiyi Immortal Light to ripple forth, fleeing desperately like a dog that has lost its home.

Ye Xuan, wielding the billions-strong Soul Suppressing Banner, pursued the Primordial Spirit from the First Layer Heaven to the Thirty-Three Heavens.

Along the way, countless palaces and towers were shattered, and a large number of Heavenly Soldiers and Generals met their grim deaths within the aftermath of their powers.

“Yuan Mo, you have brought catastrophe to the beings of the Three Realms.

Even if my Divine Soul shatters today, I will vanquish you here.”

Above the Turquoise Pool, Ye Xuan bellowed loudly, the billions-strong Soul Suppressing Banner stirring the cosmos, the Heaven Splitting Immortal Light causing the Primordial Spirit to stagger, his voice of righteous condemnation also reaching the ears of the group of Immortals.

“Ye Xuan, you bastard.”

The Primordial Spirit roared in fury and desperation, struggling to fend off Ye Xuan’s great Immortal Techniques, but was so overwhelmed he could only grind his teeth and swallow his pain.

Was the Primordial Spirit here in the Heavenly Palace of his own free will?

He had been driven here by Ye Xuan, with nowhere to escape.

He was merely possessing Yuan Mo’s body.

Although he possessed the Cultivation of a Taiyi Mystic Immortal, Ye Xuan had stepped into the Taiyi Mystic Immortal Realm and had mastered his magic completely.

He was no match for Ye Xuan.

From the ground to the sky, and from the sky to the Thirty-Three Heavens, thousands of miles of landscapes were shattered.

Along the way, the Primordial Spirit was filled with rage and despair, yet utterly powerless.

“Truly Yuan Mo!” cried an Immortal Official in alarm.

“Who exactly is this Daoist who pressed Yuan Mo to such a state?” exclaimed a Golden Immortal in shock.

However, in an instant, Yuan Mo seized the opportunity to flee from above the Turquoise Pool, and Ye Xuan merely cast a hurried glance at the group of Immortals below.

When his gaze met the Jade Emperor’s, his eyes briefly hardened, then he continued his pursuit of Yuan Mo.

“My lords, who will assist this Daoist in subduing this demon?” asked the Jade Emperor, his expression calm and his voice slightly imposing.
