Chapter 2156 - I Come From The Heavenly Realm

Name:God Emperor Author:
Hundreds of feet away from the Ziwei Palace, the Space rippled like a water surface. Two figures walked out slowly. They were Zhang Ruochen and Chi Kongyue.

Guoguo and Demon Ape were both on Chi Kongyue’s body, but the treatment given was different. Guoguo was being held in a comfortable position, while Demon Ape shrank into the size of a fist and sat on Chi Kongyue’s shoulder.

“Father, it’s the Nine-heavens Maiden,” said Chi Kongyue.

Zhang Ruochen looked towards the palace gate. He couldn’t help but frown slightly.

At this moment, two figures walked out of the palace gate. One was a man and the other was a woman. Both of them exuded outstanding dispositions that were out of this world.

The woman was, of course, the Nine-heavens Maiden. As for that man, he was no stranger to Zhang Ruochen. He had seen him before. It was Akash.

After a few days, he saw Akash with the Nine-heavens Maiden outside the Ziwei Palace. It was not just a coincidence, but God’s will.

Chi Kongyue frowned and said, “It’s Akash again. He seems to be pestering the Nine-heavens Maiden a lot recently.”

Obviously, what Zhang Ruochen had seen before was not an accident. It was not the first time Akash had met with the Nine-heavens Maiden.

Without a doubt, Akash was very solicitous in getting on the Nine-heavens Maiden’s good side.

Guoguo looked up and snorted. “Where did this gigolo come from? How dare he pester the Nine-heavens Maiden? Doesn’t he know that she belongs to Lord Chen?”

“What are you talking about?” Zhang Ruochen stared at Guoguo.

Guoguo’s neck shrank, and he quickly corrected his words. “Friend, just a friend. Princess Kongyue, who is this gigolo? How can the Nine-heavens Maiden be so polite to him?”

“Akash comes from Megrez. He is the descendant of the legendary Navagraha. He is also very powerful. I heard that he has practiced both the energies of the Sun and the Moon simultaneously, and has already reached an extremely high level,” explained Chi Kongyue.

Navagraha had cultivated nine energies to the extreme all at the same time. Naturally, most of his people also chose to cultivate the same nine energies.

However, Navagraha’s talent was naturally gifted. It could not be replicated. It was very rare for any of his descendants to cultivate one energy to the extreme successfully.

Out of all the nine energies, the Moon, the Sun, Ketu, and Rāhu were extremely mystical. They were not just any trivial matter but extremely difficult to cultivate.

Akash who was able to cultivate both the power of the Moon and the Sun, his talent was undoubtedly high. Only a few people could be compared to him. So he was fully deserving to be called a genius.

“Who cares about the descendants of Navagraha? No one can pester the Nine-heavens Maiden. Lord Chen, I must teach him a lesson and make him leave,” said Guoguo excitedly.

Demon Ape curled its lips and said, “Since you’ve said it, if you have the ability, go beat him up.”

“Shut up, you big fool.” Guoguo glared at him.

Zhang Ruochen didn’t pay attention to Guoguo at all. After pausing for a moment, he walked forward.

“Miss Nalan, the situation in the imperial city is becoming more and more dangerous. You should decide as soon as possible. Don’t… Eh?” Akash was trying his best to persuade the Nine-heavens Maiden when he suddenly sensed something.

He couldn’t help but turn his head and look straight ahead. Suddenly, two figures appeared in front of him. They were getting closer and closer.

After taking a good look at who they were, Akash’s pupils contracted. His emotions were no longer calm.

‘Zhang Ruochen really came to the Central Imperial City. How did I get to meet him now?’ thought Akash.

What had happened in Syzygy Mansion three days ago had already spread far and wide. The issue had stormed the whole city and shocked many. As a result, the cultivators of the macroworlds had acted a lot more low-key.

It was unimaginable that one person could shock thousands of macroworlds.

With Akash’s background and strength, he was able to remain calm no matter who he met.

However, at this moment, he felt a little nervous. He wanted to leave this place immediately. He didn’t want to face Zhang Ruochen at all.

Ever since Zhang Ruochen came to the Central Imperial City, his whereabouts had been a mystery. He did not even show up when Syzygy Mansion was punishing Zhou Yu. But now he was swaggering in front of him, Akash couldn’t help but feel uneasy.

Seeing that Zhang Ruochen was getting closer and closer, Akash calmed himself down immediately. He smiled and cupped his hands, “Brother Zhang, I’ve heard so much about you. Now that I can finally meet you in person, it’s really a blessing. This trip is worth it all.”

“Who are you?” asked Zhang Ruochen coldly.

Hearing this question, Akash was stunned. He was the leader of Megrez and he is famous in both Celestial Court and Infernal Court. This was the very first time someone said they did not know him.

Akash replied, “I am Akash. I come from Megrez. My ancestor is Navagraha.”

As he spoke, Akash showed a strong sense of pride. He held a natural sense of superiority.

After all, Megrez was one of the top five powerful realms in the Western Universe. It had a deep foundation, and Navagraha was once invincible. Even in the present day, he still had a reputation in all the realms. How could Akash not be proud?

“Megrez. Navagraha. it is indeed an extraordinary background,” Zhang Ruochen said indifferently.

A displeasing look flashed across Akash’s eyes. No matter how he listened to Zhang Ruochen’s words, he felt that there was something strange.

After controlling his emotions, Akash smiled again and said, “Brother Zhang, it’s a huge issue that you came to the Central Imperial City. It’s huge enough to boost our morale. I’m thinking of hosting a banquet and inviting some good friends to welcome you together. What do you think, Brother Zhang?”

“There’s no need for this. I prefer peace and quietness. Besides, not many people will be happy to see me in the Central Imperial City,” said Zhang Ruochen.

Akash’s expression froze. He did not expect Zhang Ruochen to reject him so directly. He really did not bother to show some kindness.

Although he didn’t like it, he remained a polite stance and said, “How can that be? Brother Zhang defeated Yan Wushen and is the strongest person below Supreme Saint. You have no idea how many people admire you.”

“Do you have anything else to say?” asked Zhang Ruochen.

Hearing this, Akash was down. How could he not know that Zhang Ruochen thought of him as an annoyance and wanted him to leave? This was outrageous.

If it was anyone else, he would have lost his temper by now. However, the person standing in front of him was the infamous Zhang Ruochen. He did not dare to provoke him.

‘Zhang Ruochen. How dare you. Since you don’t know how to appreciate favors, it seems that you are purposely looking for trouble. You want to stop me from pursuing the Nine-heavens Maiden. How evil.’ Akash was annoyed.

He had done his research and knew that Zhang Ruochen had a close relationship with the Divine Scripture Maiden. Looking at Zhang Ruochen’s attitude, Akash felt that everything was very clear.

But, even if Akash knew everything, he did not dare to have a fallout with Zhang Ruochen. He was very strong and had many trump cards, but he was not confident in fighting Zhang Ruochen.

‘Zhang Ruochen, you have offended the Heavenly Realm and Infernal Court. You won’t have long to live. I’ll let you be arrogant for now,’ thought Akash.

Suppressing his anger, Akash said, “I still have some things to deal with, so I’ll take my leave first.”

With that, Akash did not stay any longer. With a move, he turned into a saint light that interweaved with the Sun and the Moon and left quickly.

“What a hypocrite. He’s obviously burning with anger, but he still pretended to be calm,” said Guoguo contemptuously.

The Demon Ape said, “Would he dare to lose his temper in front of his Royal Highness?”

“Lord Chen is mighty. He’s invincible in the world. Even the dragons and snakes must bow before him,” complimented Guoguo.

The Nine-heavens Maiden displayed a helpless expression. She did not expect Zhang Ruochen to intervene. She was speechless.

“Why did you do this?”

Zhang Ruochen said, “I didn’t do anything. I just happened to meet him while sending Chi Kongyue back.”

At this, the Nine-heavens Maiden rolled her eyes at Zhang Ruochen. She reached out a hand and pulled Chi Kongyue to her side. “Chi Kongyue, don’t run around these few days. Just stay in the palace.”

The Central Imperial City was filled with all kinds of dangers. So staying in the Ziwei Palace was the safest. After all, this was Empress Chi Yao’s residence. No one dared to trespass.

“Please take care of Chi Kongyue. I’ll visit her often,” said Zhang Ruochen.

At this moment, Zhang Ruochen’s glabella suddenly lit up. The Ancient Abyssal Blade flew out from the Divine Light Sea of Qi and circled around him. Then, it flew straight into the Ziwei Palace without any obstruction.

Zhang Ruochen knew that the Ancient Abyssal Blade was going to find the Blood Dripper. They hadn’t seen each other for a long while.

Recently, the situation in the imperial court had been tense. The Blood Dripper had been guarding the Ziwei Palace to stabilize the army’s morale.

For a moment, Zhang Ruochen couldn’t help but feel emotional. No matter how hostile he was towards Chi Yao, the relationship between the Ancient Abyssal Blade and the Blood Dripper hadn’t changed. Swords are much more affectionate than humans.

“Maybe you can go to The Inscription Guild,” said the Nine-heavens Maiden suddenly.

As soon as Zhang Ruochen heard ‘The Inscription Guild’, his heart skipped a beat, and he suddenly thought of something.

After saying a few words, Zhang Ruochen watched the Nine-heavens Maiden and Chi Kongyue enter the Ziwei Palace. He then turned and left.

If it was not necessary, Zhang Ruochen did not want to set foot inside Ziwei Palace.

Zhang Ruochen performed the “Thirty-six Formless Transmogrification” to change his appearance, he then appeared in the 5th City District. The headquarters of The Inscription Guild was in this district.

The Inscription Guild was very mysterious. It had always been a neutral force in Kunlun Real, recruiting all the world’s strongest cultivators but it was not limited to humans only. It had the longest history and very few forces could compare to it.

No matter how the Kunlun Realm’s situation had changed, The Inscription Guild will always exist. Its foundation was unfathomable. Even the imperial court did not mess with it.

As Zhang Ruochen was standing outside the headquarters of The Inscription Guild, his eyes could not help but shine with a strange light.

In his imagination, the headquarters of The Inscription Guild should be grand and magnificent with countless pavilions. But looking at it now, it was only an ancient and simple palace filled with historical marks.

Of course, Zhang Ruochen could see that this palace was not just any palace. It contained countless inscriptions. It must have been refined by an extraordinary Refiner.

‘This palace must contain the Heavens and the Earths. If it is self-sealed, I’m afraid no one can break into it. According to legend, The Inscription Guild was founded by the one and only Divine Refiner. Two or three of the Ten Greatest Divine Artifacts in Kunlun Realm seemed to have been refined by that Divine Refiner,’ thought Zhang Ruochen to himself.

Divine Artifacts were so precious that even the ultimate macroworld, Kunlun Realm only had ten of them.

Most of the macroworlds didn’t have any Divine Artifact at all. They didn’t even have much Supreme Artifacts.

Unfortunately, after the catastrophe in the Middle Age, almost all of Kunlun Realm’s Ten Greatest Divine Artifacts vanished. Only the Imperial Ruler was preserved in The Inscription Guild.

To be more precise, the Imperial Ruler had always been the cornerstone treasure of The Inscription Guild.

The Inscription Guild was able to pass on its heritage for thousands of years. It had a lot to do with the Imperial Ruler.

Legend had it that the Imperial Ruler could measure the Emperor’s cultivation realm. It contained the profound way to the Supreme Saint. If one could fully comprehend it, one might be able to achieve godhood.

After reaching the Saint Kinghood, if one wanted to quickly improve their cultivation, following the way of the Imperial Ruler was the best choice.

Naturally, Zhang Ruochen came to The Inscription Guild because he wanted to use the Imperial Ruler and gain some enlightenment. He wanted to reach the peak of his cultivation as much as possible.

Everyone’s first time using the Imperial Ruler to gain enlightenment had the best effect. There might even be an epiphany.

Although Zhang Ruochen had reached the peak of Saint Kinghood, he had never been to The Inscription Guild before. He was looking forward to the effect.

“Nice to meet you, Brother Zhang.”

Just when Zhang Ruochen was about to enter, a magnetic voice suddenly sounded.

A man walked over from the side with a smile on his face. He exuded a very friendly feeling.

This man was six feet tall. His facial features were exquisite and flawless. He was so good looking that many women envied him. He wore a silver brocade robe and had long purple hair. He looked very elegant.

The most eye-catching thing was his purple eyes. They glittered with purple light and seemed to be mysterious.

Zhang Ruochen took one glance at him casually and found that he was extraordinary. He naturally shone with a noble disposition, but he also gave people a sense of approachability.

What surprised Zhang Ruochen was that this man could see through his changes.

It seemed that his “Thirty-six Formless Transmogrification” had not been practiced well. First, he was seen through by Zheng Yuan and Fairy Cihang, and now, he was seen through by another person.

Was he someone who could be compared with Zhen Yuan and Fairy Cihang?

The purple-haired man walked up to him and cupped his hands, “Brother Zhang, let me introduce myself. My name is Yin Yuanchen, and I come from the Heavenly Realm.”

After the purple-haired man said the last three words, the temperature around them dropped rapidly.

“Why is there anyone from the Heavenly Realm looking for me? Aren’t you afraid that I’ll kill you?” asked Zhang Ruochen.

Yin Yuanchen was not afraid. He remained calm and said, “Although I’m from the Heavenly Realm, I’m not your enemy. Just like in Kunlun’s Realm, not everyone is your friend.”

“Is that so? There’s actually someone in the Heavenly Realm who doesn’t want to kill me?” Zhang Ruochen asked.

Yin Yuanchen said, “The Heavenly Realm is very big and there are countless cultivators. It is impossible for all cultivators to think the same way. “In fact, I don’t like many of the doings in the Heavenly Realm. They are too vicious and don’t look at the bigger picture. The Infernal Court is the biggest enemy! Unfortunately, I am powerless to stop them. I can only restrain myself.”

“Speaking of which, I actually have a great relationship with Kunlun Realm. My grandmother is from there. Before the Middle Ages, she married my grandfather. Therefore, the blood of Kunlun Realm also flows in my body.”

At the end of his speech, a smile appeared on Yin Yuanchen’s face. It was as if he was very happy to have such a special background.

“With the relationship between Kunlun Realm and Heavenly Realm, how did the cultivators of both worlds come together?” It was obvious that Zhang Ruochen didn’t believe him.

Yin Yuanchen said, “Before the Middle Age, the relationship between Kunlun Realm and Heavenly Realm was still very harmonious. There was no bad blood between them. My grandfather and grandmother weren’t ordinary people either. They both had extraordinary identities.”

“My grandfather was a god. He had once practiced for a period of time with Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations. He then fell in love with Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations’ daughter. Their union was a good story in that era.”

Hearing this, Zhang Ruochen’s eyes were filled with surprise.

Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations was a legendary figure. He used to be the number one powerhouse in the Kunlun Realm. He had a higher knowledge that could conquer all realms. Even now, his fame was still being spread throughout the world.

Perhaps only a god could be worthy of the daughter of Lord Wentian of the Ten Tribulations.

But did she really marry into the Heavenly Realm? What kind of situation was it now?
