Chapter 1604: A Corner of the Ancient Imperial Court's

side the capital.Here's the translation:The Eastern Emperor's aura was unparalleled, black energy surging around him, making him appear like a demon god descending. The three low-level demonic beasts...As soon as Shen Changqing left the customs, a Tianzong elder came to report the matter.

"To inform the Sect Master, three days ago a strange phenomenon occurred in the Central Plains. It is said to be Kunlun Mountain from ancient times. Afterward, divine light surged into the sky, suspected to be the emergence of a secret realm of the ancient imperial court."

The Kunlun Mountains, the ancient imperial court's secret realm...

When Shen Changqing heard the news, his expression couldn't help but change slightly.

Three days ago.

At this point in time, if my memory serves me right, I should have just finished refining the ninth sacrificial tripod.

Just as he finished refining the ninth celestial sacrificial tripod, anomalies appeared in the Zhongzhou region. Shen Changqing couldn't help but connect the two events.

"Your guess is probably right, Your Excellency. The visions over the Zhongzhou region are most likely related to the Heaven Suppressing Cauldron. After all, the nine Heaven Suppressing Cauldrons are the treasures of the human race, but they have been scattered throughout the world since ancient times. "

Now that the nine Heaven-Conquering Cauldrons have reunited, it's not entirely impossible to awaken the secrets of the ancient imperial court.

Qingyi's voice came suddenly, confirming the thoughts in Shen Changqing's heart.

As the other party said.

Nine celestial cauldrons gathered for the heavenly sacrifice, causing the ancient imperial court's secret realm to feel their presence and triggering corresponding visions.

Thoughts fall.

>

Shen Changqing couldn't help asking, "Senior, do you know anything about the ancient imperial court secret realm in the Zhongzhou region"

"The ancient imperial court was vast. Even though I served by the Emperor's side, it was impossible for me to know everything that happened. Moreover, the Zhongzhou region holds a very delicate position. If my guess is correct,"

This appearance of the ancient imperial court secret realm is indeed not simple.

"But it's probably not that easy for others to get in."

"What do you mean, senior"

“Since the ancient imperial court's secret realm appeared due to the nine sacrificial cauldrons offered to heaven, it is estimated that using the nine sacrificial cauldrons as the key would be necessary to truly open the entrance to the secret realm.”

Without the nine sacrificial tripods as the key, it's highly unlikely that anyone else could enter.

My lord, now that you possess nine Celestial Offering Cauldrons, you essentially hold the key to unlocking the secrets of the ancient imperial court.

Qingyi confidently said.

Upon hearing this, Shen Changqing nodded slightly.

The Secret Realm of the Ancient Imperial Court.

He definitely has to go in there, and it's a matter of urgency.

The reason is also very simple.

Having broken through to the second level of the Dao Fruit, Shen Changqing had essentially exhausted all that Heaven bestowed upon him. To further his strength, he could either rely on time to gradually hone it or seek opportunities elsewhere.

The ancient imperial court's secret realm must contain numerous treasures, perhaps even opportunities to help one refine their Dao fruit.

In this case.

Shen Changqing naturally wanted to step into it.

Otherwise.

Given Shen Changqing's current situation, with his cultivation level yet to break through, there is almost no way for him to further improve his strength.

There's no other way around this.

In terms of the physical body.

Shen Changqing had already reached the realm of Shenjun Seventh Heaven, far surpassing the cultivation level in the fairy way. As for further breakthroughs, unless there was a shocking opportunity, he would have to wait for his immortal cultivation to catch up with his physical level before he could hope to progress further.

As for the reasons, it's also very simple.

Whether it's the Immortal Dao, the Divine Dao, or any other system, most cultivators must focus on the application of rules when they step into a certain realm. Only when their understanding of the rules reaches a certain level can they truly be considered strong at that level.

The biggest difference is among them.

This is reflected in the lifespan.

If a Divine Lord's cultivation remains at the tenth level, but due to some powerful fortuitous encounters, they forcefully temper their physical body to the Divine King realm, under the judgment of celestial rules, they are still considered a Divine Lord realm and naturally wouldn't receive the lifespan of a Divine King.

The same.

Because of the influence of realm restrictions, it is much more difficult for divine monarchs to continue to break through their physical bodies.

The more boundaries you transcend, the harder it becomes to improve.

So-called top prodigies, capable of challenging across ranks, possess not only exceptional natural talent but also a greater capacity for power within their own realm. Furthermore, they excel in certain aspects by breaking through the limitations of their current realm, possessing a depth of understanding beyond what is typically expected at their level.

This is the difference between a prodigious talent and an ordinary cultivator.

However.

Nothing is absolute.

For races like the Black Demon Clan, who are born with innate power and don't need to cultivate according to set rules, breakthroughs in cultivation seem relatively easier.

If facing ordinary cultivators, the Black Demon race is no weaker than them. However, when facing some cultivators with Law Bodies, their shortcomings will naturally become apparent.

To get back to the point.

Shen Changqing's current situation is roughly like this.

His physical body's realm had progressed too rapidly, surpassing his cultivation in the immortal path. For his physical body to advance further, the difficulty would increase exponentially.

Therefore.

Now the only way left for Shen Changqing was to hone his immortal power.

A little bit condensed its own fairy power, refining to the limit of the current realm, almost reaching the maximum strength that a Dao Fruit Stage Second Layer could achieve.

If you want to continue to improve your skills, you need to elevate your level.

However.

>

Nothing is absolute.

Although physical aspects may be difficult to further improve, who knows if there might be some incredible opportunities within the ancient imperial court's secret realm that could allow me to break through my limitations.

Then.

Shen Changqing looked towards the direction of Leize Peak.

>

Since Tian Lei Shengzhu entered the Leize Cave Heaven, he hasn't come out yet. Shen Changqing didn't care too much about it.

Let me know if you have other text to translate!

It is not easy to enter Lei Ze Cave Heaven for cultivation. The strength of the Heavenly Thunder Saint Master is also not weak. If the other party does not reach their limit, it is completely impossible to leave there.

Shen Changqing once again sorted out his current situation.

Let's not talk about the nine sacrificial cauldrons for heaven for now.

The natal treasure, Heavenly Sword, is still at the level of the first rank of twelve ranks. If you want to rely on the natal magic weapon to slowly nurture it, the Heavenly Sword will be promoted to the middle rank of twelve ranks, which will take a long time.

If it were possible to reforged the Heavenly Sword, there would be a chance of pushing the opponent's rank up by a little.

... For Shen Changqing, at present, both the first and middle ranks of the Twelve Ranks are essentially the same. After all, his divine sovereign seventh-level physical body is already comparable to a treasure of the late stage of the Twelve Ranks.

That is to say.

Shen Changqing himself was a walking divine weapon.

Anything truly useful to oneself would at least have to be a treasure of the level of a half-immortal like the Maggot Abyss.

Then.

... refers to the field of academic excellence.

The Nine Refinement Holy Body Scripture has already been created to the level of nine refinements, but the nine refinements have not yet reached true perfection. According to Shen Changqing's estimation, if the nine refinements were truly perfected, they should be able to allow cultivators to refine to the state of a complete Divine Sovereign realm.

Then.

That's the blood nerve.

This is the only two strongest of all the self-created martial arts of Shen Changqing.

The Nine Ranks Sacred Body Art combined with the Blood God Meridian can fully bring out the power of these two ultimate techniques. In normal combat, it can be incredibly effective.

As for the rest.

Like the Nine Deaths Rebirth Sutra and the Nine Ranks Divine Body Scripture, they are quite a bit lacking.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

"Right now, my top priority is to improve my cultivation level. After that, I'll focus on perfecting the Nine-Rank Saint Body Art as much as possible. After all, this ultimate technique is very important to me."

In the future, if you want to improve your strength, you also need to pay attention to your physical training.

Although Xian Dao cultivates the physical body, making their physiques inherently stronger than those of Shen Dao cultivators, it doesn't mean they can disregard their physical existence.

“The only purpose of perfecting the Nine-Rank Sacred Physique Art is to refine other body cultivation techniques. Using these other techniques as nourishment, cultivate and enrich the Nine-Rank Sacred Physique Art.”

But ordinary divine master-level body refinement techniques are now limited in effect. However, divine sovereign-level body refinement techniques are extremely rare. Not to mention whether they can be exchanged, even if they could be obtained, it would likely cost a considerable price.

If the secret realm of Zhongzhou's vast territory was truly left behind by the ancient imperial court, there just might be what I need!

When Shen Changqing thought of this, he understood even more that he couldn't delay his trip to the Zhongzhou region.

The current situation is in flux, and no one knows what form the heavens will take in the next moment.

To survive a catastrophe, one must continuously strengthen their own abilities.

Therefore.

>

The current situation.

There's no room for Shen Changqing to slowly hone and wait any longer.

The Central Plains region.

Now, the phantom of Kunlun Mountain is becoming increasingly solid, as if the ancient divine mountain of old is truly about to reappear in the world.

The sacred mountain towered high into the clouds, even the god himself could not see its end at a glance.

Whenever a powerful individual tries to peek into the end of Mount Shen, an invisible force will block their vision, adding a lot of mystery to Mount Shen out of thin air.

And in the center of the illusory Kunlun Divine Mountain, one could see divine light swirling and gradually transforming into the shape of a bronze gate. Strong individuals tried to open the bronze gate, but they found that no matter how much they exerted their power, they couldn't move it even slightly.

Don't say it was completely opened, even if you open just a crack, it won't work.

This is the end of a paragraph.

For a moment.

Most of the powerful beings from all heavens gather here.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

During this period, many powerful figures made their moves. Even the divine emperors couldn't help but take action, but the outcome was always the same.

“Since the secret realm of the ancient imperial court has appeared, this door cannot possibly be unopened. The fact that it can't be opened at present could be because time hasn't come yet, or perhaps it's lacking a certain key factor!”

Heaven's Mandate Divine Emperor gazed at the bronze gate within Kunlun Divine Mountain, and slowly said.

Even if he were a top-tier God Emperor, when facing the terrifying might of Kunlun Mountain, he would still feel a sense of awe.

Such a situation caused the Heavenly Mandate Divine Emperor to become increasingly wary of the ancient human race.

The Kunlun Mountains have long since been shattered, and what appears now is only a phantom of the former divine mountain. Even this phantom carries such immense power; if it were the true Kunlun Mountains, it's hard to imagine how terrifying they would be.

How terrible it must have been for the ancient people to be able to establish their imperial court on Kunlun Mountain.

All the accounts of the ancient human race are recorded in the scriptures of the divine race. They heard about the strength of the ancient human race, but they never had a chance to truly witness it.

From the phantom of Kunlun Mountain, one can now glimpse a corner of the ancient imperial court's profoundness.the potential of their bloodline.Now.A large number of ferocious beasts entered the Minghe Realm, causing the entire realm to be turned upside down.The ferocious beasts from the Infinite Sea completel...
