Chapter 5816: The Devious Great Brahma Heaven
A massive golden warship soared through the sky, completely ignoring the Undying Dragon Hua Clan beneath it, racing arrogantly over their heads. As Dragon Chen caught sight of this golden warship, his heart couldn't help but race, for on the bow of the golden warship stood two colossal statues.
Although it was just a fleeting glance, Dragon Chen could instantly recognize them as the statues of Great Brahma Heaven and Fallen Night, which meant that this warship hailed from the Dan Valley.
Covered in endless divine patterns and ablaze with the power of faith, it left behind a fiery tail as it roared ahead, disregarding any threats from the myriad clans.
The passage of the warship startled the strong members of the Undying Dragon Hua Clan, who quickly assumed battle positions. However, they realized that the newcomers paid them no heed, which left them feeling both angry and helpless.
"It seems that the Great Brahma Heaven Lineage is awakening from various small worlds as well. It looks like there will be significant movements," muttered Huai Minjun as he gazed at the roaring warship, feeling the oppressive aura it exuded.
"Damn it, too bad our strength isn't sufficient; otherwise, I'd never allow you to be so arrogant," Dragon Chen said through clenched teeth as he watched the warship racing away.
"Senior, what's the origin of this Great Brahma Dan Valley? Why are they so audacious?" Dragon Chen decided to act naive and humbly asked Huai Minjun for information.
Huai Minjun, oblivious to Dragon Chen's intentions, responded directly, "The Great Brahma Dan Valley is guided by two supreme deities, Great Brahma Heaven and Fallen Night. Both of them are supreme gods, and when it comes to divine heritage, the combined heritage of everyone in the world can't compare to theirs."
"I heard they were disciples of the Elixir Emperor, so does that make Elixir Emperor part of the divine heritage?" Dragon Chen probed.
"In our historical records, the Elixir Emperor isn't considered part of the divine heritage; instead, he's part of the immortal heritage. After the Elixir Emperor fell, these two modified his legacy, shifting it from immortality to divinity, and declared themselves godly sovereigns. They purged dissidents and monopolized alchemy, absorbing all the factions that relied on elixirs for cultivation. In essence, after the Elixir Emperor's fall, they inherited the majority of his legacy. However, there are rumors that Great Brahma Heaven and Fallen Night betrayed their teacher and ancestors, causing internal divisions. The old followers of the Elixir Emperor turned against them, leading to a long-standing conflict. Ultimately, Great Brahma Heaven and Fallen Night joined forces to wipe them out. But before the Elixir Emperor's followers were annihilated, they made alchemy techniques public, shattering Great Brahma Heaven's dream of monopolizing the elixirs of the Nine Realms. Nonetheless, even after that, the Great Brahma Dan Valley continued to dominate around 80% to 90% of the elixir market. Many people rely on them. Furthermore, it's said that the elixirs produced by the Great Brahma Dan Valley are flawed, and they use these elixirs to control and cultivate their followers, using quite nefarious means," Huai Minjun explained.
Upon hearing the word "nefarious," Dragon Chen felt somewhat relieved, as this word suggested that the relationship between the Undying Dragon Hua Clan and the Great Brahma Heaven was not ideal.
"Why, does the Undying Dragon Hua Clan dislike the Great Brahma Heaven Lineage?" Dragon Chen continued to probe, hoping to uncover their history.
Huai Minjun replied, "In truth, it's not just the Undying Dragon Hua Clan that dislikes the Great Brahma Heaven Lineage. In fact, we harbor a strong aversion to the entire human race... Oops, I'm sorry; did I say something wrong?"
Dragon Chen was left speechless. What Huai Shu said was true – the Undying Dragon Hua Clan often spoke without thinking. Dragon Chen hurriedly replied, "No, no, you didn't say anything wrong. You were just speaking the truth."
Dislike was dislike, but at least the Undying Dragon Hua Clan members were straightforward and honest. Dragon Chen couldn't help but ask, "Why do you dislike the human race?"
"Well, initially, our Undying Dragon Hua Clan, and in fact, all other races except humans, could maintain their true forms while practicing. But ever since an unparalleled expert emerged from your human race, he forcibly disrupted the order of the heavens and changed the rules of cultivation. As a result, all of us had to learn how to shapeshift, or else we could never pass the realm of the Human Emperor. When we assume human form, our bodies change, and so do our natures, which makes our emotions unstable. The human emotions—joy, anger, sorrow, thought, love, hate, and fear—we must all experience them, and after being tainted by these seven emotions and six desires, our previously tranquil hearts become turbulent. You call it the seven emotions, while we call it the seven poisons. We need to purge ourselves of these human emotions and desires, thinking that things will improve after we pass the realm of the Human Emperor. However, we soon discover that, after passing that realm, the poison of the seven emotions and six desires is imprinted deep within our souls, eternally indelible. So, it's not just our Undying Dragon Hua Clan; in fact, other races also dislike the human race, and the root of this dislike is the emergence of that person." Huai Minjun sighed.
Huai Minjun didn't mention the person's name, but Dragon Chen knew that person was the Lord of the Nine Stars, the only one capable of singlehandedly changing the laws of the heavens and making all races follow them.
"But wait, didn't that person fall already? The laws of heaven and earth should have returned to normal, right?" Dragon Chen probed.
"Although he fell, his will endures, and it still influences the laws of heaven and earth. Legend has it that to restore the laws of heaven and earth, his will must be extinguished. And to extinguish his will, all the descendants of the Nine Stars in the world must be exterminated," Huai Minjun said, looking slightly troubled as she mentioned the descendants of the Nine Stars.
This revelation took Dragon Chen by surprise. The descendants of the Nine Stars were the continuation of the will of the Lord of the Nine Stars. So, did this mean they would be at odds with all the races?
"Who said this, and is there any basis for it?" Dragon Chen asked.
"It was said by the Great Brahma Heaven. Whether it's true or not, no one knows for sure, but it's recorded in the history books of our clan," Huai Minjun explained.
"That conniving old lamp again," Dragon Chen said through clenched teeth. The Great Brahma Heaven was truly devious, as this would put the descendants of the Nine Stars in opposition to all the races.
And with his identity as a descendant of the Nine Stars now becoming known, he might face persecution from the entire world. Currently, the laws of the Nine Heavens were being restored, and everyone was waiting for the complete saturation of the power of heaven and earth before progressing to higher realms.
During this time, the godly emperors from small worlds enjoyed significant advantages. As time passed, they absorbed more and more of the power of the heavenly way, and their imperial pathways became stronger. For someone like Dragon Chen at the Divine Emperor realm, there was no room for further advancement, only a quiet wait.
But during this waiting period, he faced great danger. However, there was nothing he could do about it.
As he continued on his journey, time passed day by day. Dragon Chen watched helplessly as the strength of the Undying Dragon Hua Clan's godly emperors steadily increased. Eventually, they reached the eighth day, and before them, there was a vast forest that reached into the clouds.
"We've arrived," Dragon Chen exclaimed as he laid eyes on the forest. The Undying Dragon Hua Clan members were filled with excitement, and even Huai Minjun was moved to tears.
