Ancient Godly Monarch

If the words of the Grim Reaper were known to people of the world, an immense commotion would surely be caused. From his words, one could evidently infer that the western world was among the parties who participated in the world-destroying battle of Ancient Azure Mystic.

In addition, the vengeance of the Grim Reaper ran deep. He asked these buddhist cultivators why are they not in hell yet.

From this, one could tell that the Buddhist Sect was not a casual participant.

“The buddha is merciful. When it is time to enter hell, we will naturally enter it. Everything is cause and effect, dependent on karma. As for the countless vengeful spirits in Ancient Azure Mystic which occurred in the war back then, if it wasn’t for the fact that benefactor and the Imperishable Heaven lord were being stubborn, how could that war have escalated to that level?” The voice in the buddhist sect rang out again. However, a crazed laughter echoed out from the darkness. “What a good explanation, pushing everything to karma. I will wait for the western world to receive their karma.”

“Benefactor, what is your purpose in coming to the western world today?”

“I just came by to let you all know something. For what you did to Azure Mystic in the past, are you planning to do the same to the successor of Azure Mystic? If something happens to Qin Wentian, I will make sure that blood would flow like rivers in your western world, making this into a true hell.” A cold voice that sounded like it was from purgatory drifted over, causing the hearts of the countless buddhist cultivators to tremble. Those deity-level buddhist cultivators all understood that the words of the Grim Reaper wasn’t just alarmist talk. He is someone that walked the talk.

Qin Wentian was the successor of Ancient Azure Mystic. As expected, everything was because of karma.

The Grim Reaper wanted to protect Qin Wentian, allowing him to continue growing.

The darkness gradually faded away, the auspicious golden light pierced through it, reaching the sky, allowing the dark clouds to clear. Not long after, the pure and holy light once again enveloped the holy ground in the Buddhist Sct, the atmosphere seemed tranquil and peaceful once more, like a paradise in the mortal world. The golden light illuminated the sky. This place was a location of faith, the Pureland of Bliss, untainted by dust from the mortal world.

The darkness was like it has never appeared before. It vanished without a trace completely.

But this time, the appearance of the Grim Reaper was a warning to everyone in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. He has returned and he is currently in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.

There wasn’t a single power that dared to ignore his existence, even the western world didn’t dare to do so. In the past, everything that has happened made the western world clearer compared to any other power of the strength of the Grim Reaper. After Ancient Azure Mystic was destroyed, a calamity descended on the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. It was unknown how many hegemonic powers had fallen then. Everywhere the army of death passed by, everything was turned to ashes.

“BOOM!” A sound of a bell rang out within the Pureland of Bliss, in the holy ground of the Buddhist Sect. The buddhist cultivators then gathered as they discussed matters.

Right now, the various hegemonic powers were all observing. After they were frightened into retreat by the Grim Reaper, everyone was waiting to see what actions the western world would take. They soon received the news that not only did the Grim Reaper appear at the Heaven Vault, he also appeared in the western world simultaneously. No one knew if his true self was at the Heaven Vault or the western world. Maybe, both figures that appeared were just his clones.

The name of the Grim Reaper began to spread through the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Only a very few knew that there was actually such an immensely powerful existence that could strike fear in the hearts of experts from the hegemonic powers. Also, he used darkness to envelop the western world. From the perspectives of the normal people of the world, this was simply an unfathomable thing yet the Grim Reaper actually succeeded in doing so.

Also, regardless of the hegemonic powers of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms or the western world, they were all extremely wary of the Grim Reaper.

After that, more news regarding the Grim Reaper’s origin was also circulated. It is rumored that he was none other than the supreme existence who gave the ban order on Azure Mystic. He didn’t allow experts who were above a certain level to enter there. He was an absolute character from Ancient Azure Mystic countless years ago. He once led his army of death and brought destruction to the various deity-level hegemonic powers. Many heavenly deities had fallen to his hand.

And after countless years have passed, he appeared once again in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. However, his appearance this time was for the sake of protecting his successor. Or to better put it, the successor of Ancient Azure Mystic – Qin Wentian.

The Heaven Vault once again was safe. It still existed despite the fact that almost all the hegemonic powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms ganged up on it. Just when the people of the world felt that the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect would be razed to flat ground, they didn’t even suffer any damage at all. And in fact, right now, no one else dared to surround the Heaven Vault any longer.

Back then, Headmaster Ye of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy acted to save Qin Wentian. And now, the Grim Reaper issued a clear warning to everyone not to mess with Qin Wentian. Who would dare to ignore his warning?

Within the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, Qin Wentian naturally also learned of the news that the Grim Reaper appeared in the western world. He sighed with emotion, he didn’t expect that crazy old freak to be so powerful to this extent. The western world could cause the Qiankun Sect and Nine Heavens Mystical Palace to pull out from his alliance with a single sentence but even they seemed to be wary of the Grim Reaper.

At this moment, in the sea region outside the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect, a figure could be seen sitting on a small boat, drifting towards the direction of the divine sect. The figure on the boat appeared extremely sloppy. He had disheveled hair that blocked his face. He was clad in a simple grey robe that looked extremely tattered and he exuded no aura at all, resembling an insignificant beggar.

The small boat floated to outside the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect. He actually flew off the boat and soared into the air, moving towards the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect.

At this moment, a guard came by, “The Qin Heavenly Divine Sect doesn’t allow outsiders to enter. Please return.”

The sloppy old man pushed the hair out of his eyes, revealing an extremely aged countenance. His eyes were cloudy and he spoke in a lazy manner, “Get your sect leader out to see me.”

“What audacious and imposing words.” The guard stiffened as he stared at the sloppy old man. This fellow most probably must be a madman, right?

What sort of place was the Qin Heavenly Divine Sect? What sort of character was their sect leader?

Qin Wentian was someone everyone else in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms wanted to deal with. This old man that seemed like a beggar wanted him to get his sect leader out to meet him?

“Old man, you better leave now. It’s best not to make such jokes in the future.” The guard waved his hand. If it wasn’t for the fact that this person was a very old man, he would already have made his move and attacked. How dare someone be so disrespectful to their sect leader.

“Fine. I will leave then. Don’t beg me to return.” The old man actually carefreely turned around and flew back to the small boat. This caused the guard to be extremely bewildered. Beg him to return? This person was most probably truly someone crazy.

But at this moment, a spatial ripple manifested. In an instant, an extraordinarily handsome young man directly stepped out of the spatial rift. He exuded a transcendent demeanor and when the guard saw this man, his body trembled as he bowed, “Sect leader!”

The person who came was none other than Qin Wentian.

Only to see Qin Wentian greeting the old man on the small boat. “Senior!”

The small boat stopped. The old man turned his head and smiled as he looked at Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian’s figure flashed and appeared beside the old man. He spoke in a somewhat shaky voice, “Senior, since you are already here, is there any logic in leaving before you enter? Come, quickly enter the divine sect!”

The old man had a strange look in his eyes as he regarded Qin Wentian, “Why did you became so polite? I’m afraid to accept it.”

In the past, Qin Wentian has never been courteous when interacting with him. In fact, Qin Wentian was downright rude in some occasions.

“Senior what are you talking about? Back then, this junior was ignorant, but isn’t there a saying that one must amend his mistakes if he knew he was in the wrong? Senior, please enter!” Qin Wentian’s smile trembled slightly. The guard’s eyes were wide-open when he saw this, feeling that something was wrong with his vision. Was this still their sect leader?

Qin Wentian was actually flattering someone else…

How could this little guard know who the old man was? However, Qin Wentian was very clear in his heart. This old man was one of the pinnacle-level existences in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, someone who stood at the absolute peak. He even dared to enter the western world to threaten the experts there. In addition, leaving aside his true strength level, just by the old man passing the Undying Scripture to him, it can be considered that this old man was his savior. Also, this old man was the one who chased all the hegemonic powers away just several days ago. There was naturally no problems in Qin Wentian lowering himself when interacting with him. Was there a problem?

“Earlier, there was someone who didn’t want me to enter.” The crazy old freak narrowed his eyes and stared at that guard.

“Eh…” That guard froze. He glanced at Qin Wentian only to see Qin Wentian glaring at him, “Quickly apologize. There’s nothing shameful about apologizing to a senior. Several days ago, it was this senior who arrived outside the Heaven Vault, helping our Qin Heavenly Divine Sect avoid a calamity.”

The guard’s body trembled, he thought back to the terrifying scene several days ago. The skies above were covered in darkness, the Grim Reaper had shown up, pressuring the experts from the other hegemonic powers, getting everyone to scram with just a single word.

Was this sloppy old man that terrifying existence?

When he thought of this, his heart trembled violently. Damn it, he actually tried to chase the Grim Reaper away earlier? Who was the crazy one?

“Senior, you are a person of great moral stature, you naturally won’t remember the offenses committed by me, someone of low moral stature. Why is there a need to blame junior? Senior, please accept my apology and enter the divine sect.” The guard hurriedly responded after he recovered. He bowed low and spoke in the most polite manner he could muster. This was definitely the strongest expert he has ever seen.

“Is the little doll Beiming Youhuang in the divine sect?” The crazy old freak asked.

“Yes. I will get her to come and see senior right now.” Qin Wentian spoke. He and Beiming Youhuang were both considered half a successor to this crazy old man. Although he kept cursing in the past when he was ‘tortured,’ he was actually extremely grateful to this old man after he exited the forbidden grounds. There was naturally no need to say anything more now.

“Mhm, I came here to see that little doll. If you are the only one present here, I wouldn’t even have the interest to appear.” The crazy old freak calmly spoke. He brushed his hair back and stood with his hands behind his back. He then inclined his head as he walked in, finally exuding a little grandeur. But even so, when compared to the imposing majesticness of the two words ‘Grim Reaper,’ the appearance of this old freak was simply miles away.

But then again, Qin Wentian knew that this crazy old man’s personality was as such.

As for the words he spoke, it was fine just to close one ear and listen. If this old man wasn’t interested, why would he personally act, heading to the western world?

Naturally, Qin Wentian wouldn’t expose him. He smiled, “Senior is right. Oh, by the way senior, this junior has already mastered the Undying Scripture. Does senior still have any more techniques roughly on the same level as the Undying Scripture? Why don’t you pass them on to me so this junior can have some ability to protect myself?”

The old man’s face was filled with black lines. He glared at Qin Wentian. Why did he pick such a shameless successor?

Staring at the look of contempt in the crazy old freak’s eyes, Qin Wentian laughed. He also didn’t mind. He continued, “It’s fine if you passed them onto Youhuang too.”

“Scram.” The crazy old freak spoke. Did this rascal think that he was an idiot? What was the difference between passing to him or Beiming Youhuang?

“It’s okay if senior doesn’t have any more heaven-defying techniques. Oh, senior you handed a mysterious black rod to this junior in the past. The black rod can be considered pretty good to use, but Youhuang doesn’t have any treasures like this. Senior, why don’t you give her some…” Qin Wentian continued to be thick-skinned and requested for treasures. Since this existence that has been alive for countless years finally appeared, if he didn’t take the chance to properly swindle more things out from this old man, wouldn’t that be too much of a deficit?
