The Suspicious Eighth Realm of the Eternal World
***
Through the books provided by the eight Demon Lords, the entire Heaven Demon Saint was presented clearly in front of Cui Heng.
Heaven Demon Saint was divided into 24 regions. This division was said to have been established by the ancient Ninth Realm Demon Emperor. Now, 15 of those territories were ruled by the Nine Demon Lords.
The other nine regions were classified as forbidden zones due to the many battles in the past.
Most of these places had the corpses of Eighth Realm experts or fragments of some powerful divine weapon. Even the Demon King at the peak of the Seventh Realm did not dare to approach them.
In the 15 regions ruled by the Nine Demon Lords, there were over 30 ancient ruins.
These places are also very dangerous. Even Demon King level experts could only explore the outer area and could not enter the core.
Clearly, Heaven Demon Saints had a very brilliant civilization in the past. There were many Eighth Realm experts who were ruled by Ninth Realm experts, leaving behind many traces of cultivators.
This also confirmed Bi Hong's words.
However, this glorious past is unclear in the record.
To be exact, the records of the Eighth and Ninth Realms were extremely vague.
It could even be said to be a little scattered.
It was as if they had been extracted from a complete book.
This was of course not because the eight Demon Lords wanted to hide something. They have absolutely no courage to do so.
The reason is also explained in the notes of these books.
320,000 years ago, the Heaven Demon Saint was invaded, and an unprecedented Great Destruction occurred.
According to the description in book—
At that moment, the Eighth Realm "Supreme Lord" crossed the void and led over 20 Dao Ruler level experts, intending to forcibly explore the ancient ruins of Heaven Demon Saint.
At that moment, even though the Sacred Demon Realm had decreased, there were still more than ten Demon Kings.
Moreover, the ten Demon Lords had holy weapons left behind by their ancestors.
They were powerful treasures that were on par with the Eighth Realm in essence, and their strength was terrifying.
Such overall strength could be considered powerful in countless worlds and endless starry skies.
Nevertheless, the Heaven Demon Saint was no match for the Heaven Sovereign.
The ten Demon Lords attacked together and used all of their Heaven Ascension Divine Weapons, but they were still no match for the Heaven Ruler.
Their greatest result was simply cutting off the crown of the Sky Sovereign.
This caused the Heaven Ruler to become angry and launch a massacre to destroy the Heaven Demon Saint.
After that battle, countless legacy books were destroyed in a single day. The ten Demon Kings died, and the ten Divine Ascension Heaven Weapons were all snatched away.
The remaining Demon Lords were also subdued and used either as mounts, or as the spiritual root of family upbringing.
In the 20,000 years after that, the entire Heaven Demon Saint was almost the backyard of the Heaven Ruler. All Devils become slaves of the Sovereign of Heaven.
Even Heaven Ruling Junior disciples could do whatever they wanted in Heaven Demon Saint. They could capture people as mounts and collect divine medicines. There was even a time when the Gold God used the Demon Sage as a mount.
However, all of this ended after the events of 300,000 years ago.
The Heaven Ruler who enslaved the Heaven Demon Saint suddenly died. Even the Heaven Domain he was in was crushed into countless fragments, becoming the first Heaven Domain in history to be completely destroyed.
Thas right.
It was the Purple Sun Heaven.
When Cui Heng read these books, he was very surprised to find that the person who led many Dao Lords to attack the Sacred Demon Realm 320,000 years ago was actually the Purple Sun Heavenly God at that time.
Precisely because the Purple Sun Heaven had collapsed 300,000 years ago, the Demon Sages regained their freedom. Then, they rebuilt the Demon civilization from the ruins and slowly recovered their strength.
This was also one of the reasons why the Demon Lord immediately chose to submit to Cui Heng after realizing his strength.
Their historical experience told them that the consequences of provoking an expert were too serious.
Great Destruction also caused the entire Heaven Demon Saint to tremble. Some shards fell into the Broken Sea of Nature and formed a small world.
The so-called "Broken Realm Sea" was the common name of the alternate space of the Heaven Demon Saint.
Since there were a large number of incomplete small worlds in the alternate space, and these small worlds were usually formed from the shards of the Heaven Domain, they were called the Broken Sea Realm.
Although the loss of a single fragment did not have much effect on Heaven Demon Saint itself, if one could help Heaven Demon Saint take back the fragment, they could obtain a certain amount of Heavenly Dao power, if one could help Heaven Demon Saint, allowing their strength to greatly increase. They could even have some characteristics of a Sky Ruler.
This was the only way for Dao Lord experts to possess a portion of the power of the Eighth Realm after the loss of the Heaven Realm. It was also the reason why the White Phoenix Demon Lord planned to let Sacred Demon Heaven devour that small world.
These were all basic information about Heaven Demon Saints.
In addition, Cui Heng also learned a lot of details.
For example, the situation of various forces, the distribution of mountains and rivers, the location of various resources, the basic situation of ruins and forbidden zones, and so forth.
This was extremely beneficial for Nascent Soul Cui Heng's cultivation.
Unfortunately, due to the Great Destruction wrought by the Purple Sun Heavenly God, the ancient records of the Heaven Demon Sect were almost wiped out. There were very few records from 300,000 years ago, and it was impossible to obtain information about the Heaven Realm from them.
However, through her spirituality notes and other books, Cui Heng still learned some important secrets.
For example, the description of the Eternal World's Eighth Realm.
As the name suggests, this was the ruler of the Heaven Domain under the system of the Heaven Realm.
An existence in this realm could greatly mobilize the power of the Great Dao laws in their Heaven Domain, called 'the power of the Heavenly Dao'. Cultivators at that level had a full advantage over Seventh Realm cultivators.
What surprised Cui Heng was that he could not rely on himself to cultivate into this world.
Only by gaining the authority granted by the Heaven Realm after ascending to the Heaven Realm can one become the Sovereign of Heaven. Then, there was the general operation of this martial cultivation system—
Beyond nature.
Just like how the Mystical God and Mystical God Taiyi could become a Gold God by consuming the Eternal True Essence, it was the same as breaking through to become a Heaven Sovereign.
Even if one had not reached the Late Completion stage of the Dao Body and was still in the Creator realm, as long as he ascended to the Heaven Realm and obtained the authority granted by the Heaven Realm, he would be able to, he could instantly become the Sovereign of the Heaven Realm. Heaven in the Eighth Realm.
However, it was precisely because reaching this realm depended on the existence of the Heaven Realm that after the Heaven Realm disappeared, no new Eighth Realm God appeared.
When all the Heaven Sovereigns left behind from the old era died of old age, the cultivators of the Eighth Realm would become legendary existences in countless worlds.
This was also the reason why the current Heaven no longer had a ruler.
“No matter how I look at it, there is something wrong with this cultivation method.” Cui Heng could not help but complain in his heart, “They already know how to use Immortal True Essence to exploit cultivators. How could they not think that they might as well be exploited in the same way?”
Thinking about this, he suddenly thought. He shook his head and chuckled. “Maybe I was wrong. It is not that they do not know that they have been exploited, but that they developed methods to exploit the myriad worlds using this method.”
Exploitation layer.
However, the people from the Purple Sun Realm also said that the former Sovereign of Heaven might possess the Supreme Treasure of the Heaven Realm and have the ability to open the Gates of the Heaven Realm. They may not be exploited.
“If I want to better understand the mysteries of the Eighth Realm and information about the Heaven Realm, I should go to the Purple Sun Realm.” He already has a plan.
In addition to the information about the Eternal World Eighth Realm, Cui Heng also obtained a secret information that shocked him.
In the books provided by these Demon Lords, the names of the Dao Lords that the Purple Sun Heavenly Lord had brought back then were recorded. The original intention of recording them was so that future generations would not forget their hatred and find the right enemy.
However, one of the names and identities made Cui Heng feel extremely ridiculous.
Zhou Juntian's!
Zhou Juntian was actually one of the more than 20 Dao Lords led by the Purple Sun Heavenly Lord. He was also the strongest among those Dao Lords.
Moreover, he was a personal disciple of the Purple Sun Heavenly Lord.
This was completely different from Zhou Juntian that Cui Heng knew.
The last ascender before the collapse of Heaven, the cause of the destruction of Heaven's Purple Sun, a tragic figure whose entire family had been destroyed, left only him.
The difference is too big.
Of course, it was also possible that they only had the same name, but both of them were very important figures.
One of them was the Dao Lord at the peak of the Seventh Realm, a personal disciple of the Lord of the Heavens. The others were directly related to the destruction of the Purple Sun Heaven.
But how could two people like them have the same name?
The two of them were called Zhou Juntian?
And it was all related to the Purple Sun Heaven?
Isn't this too coincidental?
The chances are too low. That's almost impossible.
“It seems that if I have a chance, I have to go to those three places to see it. Maybe I can learn more about Zhou Juntian.” Cui Heng thought to himself.
The three places were referring to the three special places marked on the star map of the Dark Sea Star Juntian Palace. It was said that the three places contained the treasures left behind by Zhou Juntian and contained the mysteries of the Sage King realm.
To Cui Heng, the mysteries of the Sage King realm were nothing, but information about an important person like Zhou Juntian was extremely valuable.
But this is all in the future.
For Cui Heng, the most important thing now was only one thing.
It was to digest these books and fully complete the process of cultivating the Nascent Soul Peak realm.
Then, he could focus on walking on the path of the Soul Formation realm.
….
Time passes like water. In the blink of an eye, 20 years had passed.
Cui Heng finally finished studying all the books he had obtained from the eight Demon Lords.
This kind of study is not simple. Instead, it was to find as many relevant points as possible among countless pieces of information and slowly integrate them into a mature system.
It consumes a lot of energy and time.
Of course, the benefits are also great. After studying these books, Cui Heng had almost completed the accumulation of the Nascent Soul Peak realm.
Less than 20% of progress remains.
Cui Heng finally came out of seclusion.
However, he realized that Li Mingqiong and Li Wei were not the only ones who had come to greet him.
There was also a group of Hong family members from Great Xia.
After accepting everyone's prostration, Cui Heng looked at one of the old men and asked, "Hong Kang, why are you here?"
