Chapter 112 The Battle A Hundred Years Ago
The Battle of Cangcheng Mountain’s Immortal Dawn Sect?
Zhang Shuming was surprised when he heard this. Many thoughts flashed through his mind, and he quickly linked Cui Heng to Perfected Hengxia, who had appeared a hundred years ago.
Suddenly, he seemed to have realized something, and a trace of shock appeared in his eyes.
However, he quickly suppressed this emotion.
Then, Zhang Shuming took a deep breath and said, “Exalted Immortal, you’re right. I did witness the battle of the Cangcheng Mountain’s Immortal Dawn Sect a hundred years ago.
“At that time, an Earth Immortal Patriarch of our sect decided to go to the Immortal Dawn Sect to stop the battle. I was one of the two Dao children who accompanied him. However, before the patriarch could arrive at Cangcheng Mountain, a battle erupted.”
“An Earth Immortal Patriarch?” Cui Heng discovered a key point and said in surprise, “Your Daoyi Palace still has Earth Immortals in this world?”
“They descended from the Upper World,” Zhang Shuming explained. “Every hundred years, not only will the Upper World Deities descend from the 36 states, but our ancestors will also descend to the Daoyi Palace and the Baolin Buddhist Hall.”
“I see.” Cui Heng nodded slightly. It seemed that most of the top forces in this world were related to the Upper World. “Tell me about the cause and effect of that battle and the people who participated in the siege of the Immortal Dawn Sect.”
“Yes, Exalted Immortal.” Zhang Shuming nodded respectfully and said, “There’s only one reason for that battle. It’s because the cultivation method of the Immortal Dawn Sect is clearly different from the Martial Dao cultivation methods here.
“After being discovered by an Arhat from the Upper World, he immediately gathered most of the Human Immortals and Arhats who had descended to the world to discuss this matter. In the end, he decided that the Immortal Dawn Sect was an evil sect and wanted to eliminate them.
Therefore, with the three Arhats of the Baolin Buddhist Hall as the leaders, in addition to the 13 Human Immortal Arhats of the various aristocratic families and sects, and the 41 Deity Realm experts gathered from various places, we attacked the Immortal Dawn Sect…”
“I’ve heard a little about this.” Cui Heng nodded. He had also heard this information from Wang Huaiyi, but it was not as detailed.
“Yes, just as Exalted Immortal knows, in the end, these people were completely wiped out, and not a single one of them escaped,” Zhang Shuming continued. “Although the Immortal Dawn Sect won this battle, they also completely angered the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World.
Not long after that battle, three Bodhisattvas and two Earth Immortals led 20 Arhat Immortals to descend. They also brought along three Bodhisattva Jade Bones and two Earth Immortal Remains and began to attack the Immortal Dawn Sect crazily.
The Ancestral Master of our sect wanted to stop this battle. Everyone thought that the Immortal Dawn Sect would definitely lose, but they didn’t expect Perfected Hengxia’s Sword Dao to be so extraordinary…”
At this point, he paused, and his eyes were clearly filled with shock, as if he had fallen into the memory of the scene from a hundred years ago. “I still remember that scene clearly to this day, and I’ll never forget it.
That sword light that was like multicolored light soared into the sky, as if it enveloped the entire sky. The Immortals and Buddhas that filled the sky were actually instantly swallowed by the multicolored light. Be it Bodhisattva or Earth Immortals, they actually had no room to resist and died in the blink of an eye…”
Cui Heng listened to all of this quietly, and killing intent flashed across his eyes. He thought to himself, “Bodhisattvas and Earth Immortals, should be equivalent to the Ninth level of Qi Refinement.”
“At that time, Qiqi was able to kill them with a single strike. Did she already enter the Foundation Establishment realm, or did she rely on her Ninth level Qi Refinement realm cultivation to fight them?”
At this moment, he already understood Jiang Qiqi’s situation a hundred years ago. It could be said that she was the enemy of the entire world. She was actually attacked by dozens of so-called Immortals and Buddhas at the same time.
However, since they had won in the end, why did the Immortal Dawn Sect seal off the mountain?
“Did any stronger Immortals or Buddhas descend?” Cui Heng asked with a frown.
“Yes.” Zhang Shuming nodded and said, “After the Bodhisattvas and Earth Immortals died in the Immortal Dawn Sect, a palm that was thousands of feet wide suddenly slapped down from the sky, wanting to shatter the entire Immortal Dawn Sect.
In the end, this huge hand was shattered by Perfected Hengxia’s sword light. From then on, no Immortals or Buddhas descended to attack the Immortal Dawn Sect. However, no one in the world heard of Perfected Hengxia anymore, and the Immortal Dawn Sect sealed itself off from the world.
At that time, I heard the Ancestral Master beside me exclaim that she’d actually alarmed a Deva to attack. I think the person who slapped down that huge palm should be a Deva.”
“Deva?” Cui Heng’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Is that a Heaven Immortal?”
“…” A trace of shock flashed across Zhang Shuming’s eyes. After a moment of silence, he nodded and said, “It’s not a Heaven Immortal. Heaven Immortal is just a general term for a realm. The third realm of the Immortal World is actually divided into three levels. They are respectively called Deva, Heaven Immortal, and Heaven Monarch.”
“It corresponds to the Early, Mid, and Late stages of the Foundation Establishment realm?” Cui Heng thought to himself. “In that case, Qiqi might not have reached the Foundation Establishment realm at that time. Otherwise, it would be impossible for her to disappear after receiving a strike from a Deva.”
“Exalted Immortal, I have a question. I don’t know if I should ask it,” Zhang Shuming suddenly said.
“Oh?” Cui Heng sized him up and roughly guessed what he wanted to ask, so he chuckled and said, “You answer a question of mine first.”
“Exalted Immortal, please speak,” Zhang Shuming said hurriedly.
Cui Heng’s expression suddenly became serious as he asked in a low voice, “What role did Daoyi Palace play in the battle with Immortal Dawn Sect a hundred years ago? Did they participate in it?”
“No, no, definitely not.” Zhang Shuming shook his head in fear and explained in a panic, “Exalted Immortal, my sect has always been cultivating in seclusion, staying away from the secular world. For ten thousand years, we have almost never interfered with human affairs.
Even if the Earth Immortal Patriarchs of the Upper World descend, they will only preach to us and not participate in the disputes. Moreover, it’s impossible for the other factions to order us to participate by force. Exalted Immortal, don’t misunderstand!”
“That’s good.” Cui Heng nodded lightly. “Ask away.”
“Thank you, Lord Immortal!” Zhang Shuming bowed respectfully and asked, “May I ask, Immortal? What’s your relationship with the Immortal Dawn Sect?”
“The Perfected Hengxia you’re talking about is my disciple,” Cui Heng said bluntly, not hiding anything. In any case, there were still two months before the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World would descend. He had to settle the scores with them.
However, before he really took action, he had to collect the Seven Emotions of All Life first.
This also meant that it was already imperative for him to head to Changfeng Prefecture to become the State Overseer.
If he could mobilize all the resources in the State to implement a new decree, it would make the people of Fengzhou feel joy and love for him. At the same time, it would make the nobles of Fengzhou hate him greatly. He should be able to obtain a large amount of the Light of Seven Emotions.
In particular, the light of the three colors of red, white, and black might even rise to a height of seven feet and reach a stage of success.
At this moment, Zhang Shuming was already in deep shock.
Originally, based on Cui Heng’s concern for the Immortal Dawn Sect and the fact that he clearly possessed extremely powerful divine powers, he the fact that he didn’t know the exact division of the Heaven Immortal realm. He guessed that Cui Heng might have a relatively close relationship with Perfected Hengxia from a hundred years ago.
However, he did not expect Cui Heng to be Perfected Hengxia’s master.
This meaning was completely different!
After all, although Perfected Hengxia disappeared in the end, she had displayed strength comparable to a Deva.
What kind of existence could teach a disciple comparable to a Deva Realm powerhouse?
A Heaven Immortal?
But if it was just a realm higher, it would probably not be easy to teach such a powerful disciple.
Then… could he be a Heaven Monarch?
A Heaven Monarch was known as the King of Heaven!
He was invincible in the world and suppressed everything!
He had once heard from his Ancestral Master that even in the Upper World, Heaven Monarchs were legendary mighty figures who were extremely elusive. Almost no one had really seen them.
But now, the person sitting in front of him could actually be a Heaven Monarch?!
This was too unbelievable.
Zhang Shuming was so excited that he could not control himself.
He could not help but think of the endless pressure he felt when Cui Heng’s gaze landed on him when he was flying in the sky.
That terrifying feeling that was like the descent of the heavens was something he would never forget.
Perhaps this was really a Heaven Monarch!
Only a Heaven Monarch could possess such power!
“Exalted Immortal, you, you…” Zhang Shuming wanted to ask in his excitement, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that this was too rude and didn’t know what to say.
He was getting nervous.
If anyone else saw the Daoyi Palace’s Sect Master in this state, they would definitely be dumbfounded.
After all, he usually looked calm in front of everyone. But now, he looked lost and helpless. It was as if he had returned to his youth.
Actually, this was a normal reaction when facing a big shot who was far stronger than him. It was difficult to avoid.
“Compile a list of the forces that participated in the siege of the Immortal Dawn Sect a hundred years ago and give it to me tomorrow.” Cui Heng smiled, breaking Zhang Shuming’s awkward state. “By the way, include those from the Upper World as well. Try to be as detailed as possible.”
“Yes! Thank you, Exalted Immortal.” Zhang Shuming heaved a sigh of relief.
….
Three days later.
Hui Shi and Zhou Hongyi returned to Lu County from Yuzhou.
At this moment, Yuzhou was in complete chaos because of the appearance of the Bodhisattva Jade Bone.
Many top sects and aristocratic families also participated in the competition, but they were all restrained by the Baolin Buddhist Hall and could not be distracted.
Wei Xiong and Ren Yuankui were completely dumbfounded. This sudden change had completely ruined their plan to invite the experts of the Baolin Buddhist Hall to deal with Cui Heng.
This not only allowed Cui Heng to obtain a large amount of yellow light that symbolizes desire, but it also allowed this light to jump to a height of 2 feet and 3 inches, becoming the tallest among the Light of Seven Emotions. It also allowed him to take over as the Fengzhou State Overseer without any obstructions.
There was not even a clown who came out to stir up trouble.
Liu Litao and Chen Tong had already arranged for the county deputy and commandant of Lu County to take over.
Wu Yin’s brother’s recommendation letter had also arrived.
At this point, the matter in Lu County had come to a temporary end.
Cui Heng began to prepare to head to the Changfeng Prefecture to take over the position of Fengzhou State Overseer and participate in the matter of the hundred-year Opportunity
Of course, the most important thing was to collect the seven emotions of all living beings.
Before Cui Heng set off for Changfeng Prefecture, Hui Shi had already been appointed as the Governor.
He could temporarily take charge of all the local military affairs and implement new political orders.
The first stop was Ren Yuankui’s Luo’an County!
At this time, there were less than two months before the Immortals and Buddhas of the Upper World descended.
In many places.
Streams of light of various colors tore through the sky and descended into top sects and aristocratic families like the Seven Distinguished Families.
This was the “Angels” from the Upper World.
They brought the orders of the main sect in the Upper World.
The Deity Realm King Huaiyi of the Wang Family of Langya was completely stunned as he stared dumbfoundedly at the “Angel” that had just descended outside.
Didn’t an Angel already descend earlier?
He also conveyed the will of the main sect of the Upper World.
Why was there another one now?
