Chapter 480 - 480 489 Heavenly Decree

480: Chapter 489 Heavenly Decree 480: Chapter 489 Heavenly Decree “Saint’s Decree?”

Suddenly, a resonant voice sounded throughout the eight directions of Heaven and Earth.

Beyond the Thirty-Three Layered Heavens, a roar of Daluo golden light came rushing, and when the light dissipated, Shen Gongbao quietly appeared beside Ye Xuan.

In his hands, he held a golden Dharma Decree that emitted a faint Saint’s aura.

Although it was just a wisp, it changed the complexions of the Turquoise Pool Group of Immortals and sent their minds into an extreme tremble at that very moment.

“When Heaven and Earth first opened and all things were born, the Three Realms could not go a day without a Master.

Today, Ye Xuan is commanded by Heaven to be consecrated as the Supreme Boundless Saint Heavenly Emperor.”

Shen Gongbao, with a cold smile on his face, was proclaiming the Saint’s Decree.

As his voice fell, something extremely astonishing happened.

Boom!

The Three Realms quaked, and golden light pierced the sky.

The Saint’s Decree turned into billions of streams of golden light, spreading to every corner of Heaven and Earth, and the great Dao’s roaring sounds rose simultaneously in every corner of the Three Realms.

Whether it be Yama’s Underworld or the four continents of the Earth Immortal Realm or even the Western Lingshan—all living beings, at this moment, heard the sound of this consecration.

The Saint’s Decree demands submission from all Spirits—a claim that represents the will of a Saint and is not merely spoken in vain.

At this moment, as the Three Realms were in turmoil, countless powerful beings with Great Divine Powers gazed in shock towards the Heavenly Court because this was a Dharma Decree bestowed by the Heavenly Sect Master.

It could not be faked.

…

Yama’s Underworld.

The souls and spirits of the eighteen Layers of Hell wailed, and the chilling sounds upon being heard caused a great trepidation to arise in one’s heart.

In the deepest part of the eighteen Layers of Hell, endless ghostly mist rose turbulently, accompanied by the roar of countless Evil Demons and spirits.

Above a Ninth Grade Golden Lotus, hovered an eight-zhang (a unit of length, roughly 3.3 meters) Spiritual Beast; on the lotus, a faint glimmer of Buddha Light slightly shone, with an illusory figure seated upon it in meditation.

“Great changes in Heaven and Earth; the Three Realms in chaos—the greatest darkness and turmoil are about to arrive.

Countless souls will return to the Underworld.”

“Amitabha Buddha!”

In Hell, Ksitigarbha vowed not to become a Buddha until Hell was empty.

He is Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva—an extremely terrifying being in Buddhism.

At the very beginning of Heaven and Earth, he made a grand and far-reaching vow.

Although he was awarded the spiritual fruit of a Bodhisattva, he was revered by all Spirits.

“Bodhisattva, the Heavenly Sect Master has bestowed a Dharma Decree, elevating Ye Xuan to be the Emperor of the Three Realms.

I fear even Yama’s Underworld cannot escape its influence; please, Bodhisattva, make preparations early.”

The eight-zhang Spiritual Beast, known as Diting, could comprehend all events and understand all things.

It peered into the Qingming and explored Jiuyou, with nothing it did not inspect or know.

In the Three Realms, it was truly unique.

“Diting, you who know the past and can see the future, can you see the past life of this Heavenly Emperor Ye?” Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva asked compassionately.

“Heaven’s secrets are not revealed; the past is yet to be determined.

This Heavenly Emperor Ye is too mysterious; I cannot calculate it,” Diting said dejectedly.

“Amitabha Buddha!”

Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva chanted softly, “I hope that this Ye Tian will be considerate of Heaven’s will, thus sparing the Three Realms from further slaughter.”

…

Deep within the Underworld, the Netherworld Blood Sea.

Endless in sight, the Blood Sea churned violently with countless ghostly shadows sinking and floating within.

A towering figure sat crossed-legged atop a Twelve Grade Blood Lotus, surrounded by a sea of bloodlight that caused the sea to boil and the ghostly shadows to howl fiercely.

Two Slaughter Swords, Yuan Tu and Avici, the most powerful and sinister among the Four Immortal Slaying Swords, were circling and dancing around the Twelve Grade Blood Lotus.

The Blood Sea does not dry; Minghe does not die!

He is the Minghe Ancestor, also known as the Minghe Sect Hierarch—a powerful being with Heavenly Great Divine Power and one of the Supreme Quasi-Saints.

Seated upon the Twelve Grade Karma Fire Blood Lotus—an unparalleled treasure in Heaven and Earth.

Having created the Asura Clan within the Blood Sea and possessing an eternal body, as long as the Blood Sea did not dry, even Saints would struggle to kill Minghe Ancestor, making him one of the toughest Quasi-Saints to deal with in all of Heaven and Earth.

Boom!

The Blood Sea churned, wailing souls cried out, and the Minghe Ancestor slowly opened his eyes.

His fingers moved rapidly, calculating as ripples spread towards the eight directions of the Blood Sea, as if he were divining some heavenly secret.

“The Heavenly Decree has been passed, the Heavenly Emperor descends upon Linchen, Ye Xuan’s past is not prominent, and his future is uncertain.

Could he be the protagonist in the coming darkness and chaos?”

The Minghe Ancestor’s hoarse voice emerged, and the Twelve-Rank Lotus of karma fire beneath him buzzed.

No matter how he calculated Ye Xuan’s past and future, all he saw was a fog.

“Hmm?”

Suddenly, the breath of the Minghe Ancestor caught, and even the raging Blood Sea stilled.

It was only after a dozen breaths had passed that the Blood Sea stirred once more, but the voice of the Minghe Ancestor was now one of extreme surprise.

“This child actually has a significant karmic connection with this ancestor.

Interesting, truly interesting.

I wish to see whether this child’s fate with me is one of good or evil!”

The Minghe Ancestor chuckled sinisterly, and as his laughter faded, his profound and somber voice also rose within the endless Blood Sea.

“Where is Shiva?”

“Disciple is here!” A blood-colored phantom quietly stood beside the Minghe Ancestor.

“Pluck three Blood God Fruits and send them to the Heavenly Court as a congratulatory gift to Ye Xuan.

Tell this Heavenly Emperor Ye, if he has the time, he should pay a visit to my Blood Sea to sit and discuss the Dao with me,” the Minghe Ancestor murmured.

“Yes, Master.” Shiva accepted the command and left.

“Ye Xuan?

Heavenly Emperor Ye?”

“Ha ha!”

The Minghe Ancestor burst into laughter, his voice whispering, “Be it the darkness and turmoil or a great calamity of Heaven and Earth, as long as the Blood Sea does not dry up, this ancestor shall remain undying.

If Ye Xuan can aid me on my path to the Dao, these three Blood God Fruits would not have been given to him in vain.”

…

In the Earth Immortal Realm, the Wuzhuang Temple.

Beneath the Ginseng Fruit Tree, a Daoist clad in a purple-gold Daoist robe sat cross-legged.

“Clear breeze, bright moon.”

“What command does the Ancestor have?”

Two Daoist children appeared and bowed respectfully to Immortal Zhen Yuan.

“Pluck a Ginsengfruit and send it to the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven,” Immortal Zhen Yuan said with slightly closed eyes, his voice smooth and unfazed.

Upon hearing Immortal Zhen Yuan’s words, the two Daoist children’s expressions shifted slightly.

One of them ventured a question, “Ancestor, although this Ye Tian is the new lord of the Three Realms, the Ginsengfruit is a supreme Spiritual Medicine.

How is he worthy of it…?”

“Foolish child, this Heavenly Emperor is not the Jade Emperor.

A mere Ginsengfruit is nothing to this ancestor.

Do not speak further and make haste,” Immortal Zhen Yuan said calmly.

“Yes, Ancestor.” The two Daoist children bowed in response.

As the two Daoist children left to deliver the Ginsengfruit to the Thirty-Three Layered Heaven, Immortal Zhen Yuan slowly opened his eyes, his gaze reaching out to the distant realm.

A mysterious smile surfaced on his face before he closed his eyes once more to rest.

…

In Western Lingshan.

Three thousand shrines resonated with chanting, and Duobao Tathagata furrowed his brows, his usually unrippled gaze now flashing with concern.

The Heavenly Decree had spread throughout the Three Realms, and how could Duobao Tathagata not sense it?

Though he did not witness the Jade Emperor’s soul scattering firsthand, his divination had led to the same conclusion.

But what truly astonished and unsettled him was the proclamation of the Saint’s Decree by the Heavenly Sect Hierarch, coronating Ye Xuan as the new Heavenly Emperor.
