CHAPTER 1137: CHAPTER 859: A SCATTERED SANDPILE

"Control of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm?"

God Emperor Yongyang’s expression immediately turned cold: "Who do you think you are? The Ten Thousand Gods Realm, is it so easy to control? Even if a Great Power comes in person, trying to seize the authority of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm from us is not an easy task."

After speaking, he followed up with a cold laugh: "So, you admit it. You enter my Ten Thousand Gods Realm, never with good intentions, intending to decompose and refine the divine spirits to quickly achieve your rapid ascension?"

Gu Jinlai did not respond but continued to stare at the rapidly operating Ten Thousand Gods Realm: "It’s hard for a Great Power to grasp the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, but what if it’s someone like me, who was already recognized by the Ten Thousand Gods Realm?"

Before God Emperor Yongyang appeared, he had already utilized Qingguang, entering a "Super Boost" state, his mind operating at the extreme.

At this moment, he had settled in the Fire Cloud Palace for three hundred years, and with the Taiyi Sword, a Supreme Immortal Device, enriched his knowledge foundation.

It’s known that creating a Supreme Immortal Device requires tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions of years, even for a Great Power.

Especially since the Taiyi Sword was handcrafted by the top-tier Great Power known as the Primordial, the knowledge contained within is enough to swiftly make up for Gu Jinlai’s shortfall in comprehending the Three Thousand Great Dao and thousands of Immortal Techniques.

Now, with his "Computation Power" holding, he is no different from a Great Power.

On top of that, he has the authority of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, using it to analyze and, in just a moment, the mystery of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm has revealed an iceberg’s tip before him.

"Dare to frivolously claim control of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm?"

God Emperor Yongyang stared at Gu Jinlai: "What’s your true purpose? Who is behind you?"

He quickly thought of something: "Gu Jinlai!? The newly ascended Immortal Venerable rumored to be the Primordial Reincarnation?"

Gu Jinlai did not reply.

Without hesitation, God Emperor Yongyang used the authority of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm to drive him out.

But as soon as he attempted to expel him, he immediately noticed that Yuan Miao’s authority had already risen to a level equal to his own.

"You!?"

At this point, God Emperor Yongyang finally realized the gravity of the situation.

Is there truly a Great Power deciphering the Ten Thousand Gods Realm through Yuan Miao!? The Primordial Reincarnation, Gu Jinlai!? Has he already recovered to the strength of a Great Power? Or is there a Great Power supporting him!?

Have these Human Clan Great Powers noticed the collaboration between the Divine Race and the Ancient Divine Race, intending to use Yuan Miao as a coordinate to erode and control the Ten Thousand Gods Realm and capture tens of thousands of divine spirits in one fell swoop!?

"This is bad!"

God Emperor Yongyang’s powerful Divine Will targeted Gu Jinlai and pressed down.

But...

Like a gentle breeze brushing his face, it couldn’t shake him even a bit.

At this moment, this God Emperor finally realized the critical nature of the problem, immediately splitting his consciousness to contact all the Divine Emperors.

As for whether Gu Jinlai colluded with the Evil God?

To the Immortal and Immortal Venerable, this is a grave accusation, a taboo no one dares to touch. But for a Great Power, they are the rule-makers; no one demands they adhere to the rules.

"Something major has occurred! Quickly, convene the Supreme Divine Emperor Council!"

God Emperor Yongyang urgently said.

Divine Emperor Zong Li, Yellow Sky, and other Divine Emperors were somewhat puzzled: "What matter requires convening the Supreme Council? Could it be that a Great Power has noticed the threat to our Ten Thousand Gods Realm and is coming for us?"

"It is indeed a Great Power making a move on our Ten Thousand Gods Realm!"

God Emperor Yongyang quickly replied.

"Impossible."

Yellow Sky God Emperor was somewhat incredulous: "There was an agreement between us and the Ancient God. He would help us restrain the Great Powers of various races! As for the Immortal Venerable... the Ten Thousand Gods Realm has already become formidable. Even if the Great Immortal Venerable came, we could suppress him and repel him with the power of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm!"

"Ordinary Great Powers are indeed fully restrained, but the one targeting us now is a Great Power who has just completed a reincarnation and reconstruction. He is not within the restraint scope of the Ancient God. Currently, he wants to take advantage of the Ancient God’s unawareness to use his supreme Great Power to annihilate our Ten Thousand Gods Realm, thereby destroying our collaboration plan with the Ancient God and dismantling the Heart of the Cosmic’s defensive crisis!"

God Emperor Yongyang’s face carried urgency: "This is the greatest crisis since the establishment of our Ten Thousand Gods Realm and the formation of the Divine Race!"

Yellow Sky God Emperor, Divine Emperor Zong Li, and other top beings finally realized the severity of the issue, one by one quickly joined God Emperor Yongyang to initiate the Supreme Council meeting.

Very quickly, Divine Emperors whose combat power rivaled that of an Immortal Venerable appeared one after another.

In just half a day, the number of Divine Emperors appearing in the conference room reached a staggering four figures.

This clearly shows how profoundly deep-rooted the Divine Race is.

No wonder they attempt to establish a race, becoming the seventh race following the Six Supreme Races in the cosmic order.

As the Divine Emperors gathered, Yongyang didn’t delay for a moment, quickly informing the Divine Emperors of the seriousness of the matter.

"How dare they... so blatantly disregard our Divine Race and attack our Ten Thousand Gods Realm to drain the swamp from under our feet!?"

"A Great Power!? What of it, I don’t believe a single Great Power can withstand the will-shock of our thousands of Divine Emperors!"

"Our main bodies are not in the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, and we cannot expel his Divine Thought there. To prevent him from cracking the mystery of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, the only way is to find Yuan Miao, kill him and this critical point. Without Yuan Miao, even if a Great Power wants to unravel the mystery of our Ten Thousand Gods Realm, the time required would be calculated in thousands of years!"

"As for Yuan Miao... he must be heavily protected by this Great Power right now... one wrong move, and we might walk directly into a trap he’s already set."

"Things have come to this point. We either abandon the tens of thousands of divine spirits in the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, or... risk our lives. We have no other choice."

"What if it’s a trap? That Great Power might not be able to control our Ten Thousand Gods Realm through Yuan Miao. His goal is to scare us, so we’ll walk right into it."

In an instant, emotions such as fear, frustration, and anger surged among the Divine Emperors in the scene. Everyone expressed different opinions, causing chaos in the area.

Divine Spirits are different from other species!

They are at the beginning of their rise but haven’t fully risen yet, so they can’t afford to gamble or waste time.

It’s like ordinary people planning to invest in a business; they don’t dare to let go freely.

Because they have no margin for error.

A tiny storm could disperse this species, which has gathered with difficulty, back into wandering and being hunted.

In such a situation, facing a choice that concerns the survival of the species, all Divine Emperors are cautious and indecisive, with no consensus on their opinions.

And amid this debate and discussion, half a month has already passed.

The Divine Emperors still haven’t come to a conclusion.

And the opportunity...

Has slipped away.

...

"Buzz, buzz!"

As the light flickered in Gu Jinlai’s eyes, the "world" before him underwent a colossal transformation.

Through the main hall of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm, it was as if he saw a starry sky dotted with hundreds of thousands of stars.

Each of these stars responded to another one.

Two stars entangled and reflected each other, clearly pointing out the location of one group of divine spirits to Gu Jinlai.

"I’ve already obtained the first level of access, but they can still destroy the Ten Thousand Gods Realm to sever my perception with those divine spirits, so... continue."

Gu Jinlai thought to himself and glanced at the God Emperor Yongyang, who was using only a part of his will to monitor him.

Half a month had passed, and these Divine Emperors still hadn’t taken any action. He seemed to have guessed something in his heart.

"The more people there are, the more thoughts there will be. When trying to do something, the efficiency will drastically decrease. So, in a world that truly gathers immense power in one, it’s better to be autocratic."

Gu Jinlai continued to control the Ten Thousand Gods Realm.

And just after leaving the Fire Cloud Palace, his main body turned his gaze, steering the Star Shuttle, rapidly heading toward a star domain.

This was an internal star domain belonging to the Fire Cloud Palace, not too far from the Fire Cloud Palace itself, but...

When Gu Jinlai arrived at the most famous transportation and leisure world in this star domain, his gaze precisely landed on a place called "Qingyu Heaven."

The nature of Qingyu Heaven is comparable to that of Purple Luo Heaven, but it is not as famous as Purple Luo Heaven.

And unlike Purple Luo Heaven, which primarily offers commercial gatherings, Qingyu Heaven also provides the method for Dual Cultivation and jointly comprehending the Dao of Joy.

No one would have thought that those divine spirits would choose such a place as their hiding spot.

"Sixteen divine spirits! Three Divine Kings! And one Divine Emperor... this Divine Emperor... is actually smiling humbly in front of several Golden Immortals?"

With a sweep of Divine Thought, Gu Jinlai was already aware of the moves of the divine spirits in Qingyu Heaven.

However...

Seeing the Divine Emperor accompanying female cultivators, Gu Jinlai almost felt a bit of sympathy.

Of course, this sympathy was merely a vestige of his habits from his mortal days.

He knew very well that the Divine Race is now allied with the Evil Gods, attempting to help the Evil Gods break free from the Heart of the Cosmic. This risky move could potentially release an Evil God intent on degrading everything, leading to a cosmic disaster.

He could only imagine how many beings would perish into nothingness because of their actions.

Therefore, when he made his move, he did so without the slightest hesitation.

As Divine Thought exploded, the Divine Emperor, who was stepping lithely toward a Golden Immortal to pour wine, suddenly froze. Immediately after, a vast Divine Will seemed about to erupt.

But before she could do anything, a beam of sword light pierced the void, accurately piercing her and all 19 other divine spirits.

The Destruction Dao pervaded, and the bodies of all twenty divine spirits were erased by the Sword Qi.

The precise control power ensured that after the Divine Bodies of the twenty divine spirits collapsed, no harm came to the surrounding Golden Immortals. Some self-assured Golden Immortals even had the energy to shout: "Impudent! Who dares disturb my elegance!"

Yet in the next second, a vast Divine Thought and the dissipating, exploding Divine Will engulfed the entire Qingyu Heaven, freezing the souls of these Golden Immortals.

Though the explosive Divine Will was swiftly shattered by Gu Jinlai’s Divine Sense Ability, the burst still left everyone as though they’d walked through the Nine Netherworld Purgatory. Some with weaker spirits were so shocked their bodies went limp.

Gu Jinlai did not concern himself with other Golden Immortals.

Dealing with the twenty divine spirits, he effortlessly split his mind to handle them, using the Void Projection Technique. The Divine Sense Ability, imbued with Qinglian Radiance, spread toward the divine spirits’ Divine Country, and shortly after, the twenty divine spirits were completely wiped out.

Finishing this, without any pause, the Yuan Miao Body of the Ten Thousand Gods Realm sensed briefly and soon moved again.

"Next location."
