Chapter 35 One word that shocked the heavens
Only when his figure completely disappeared into the depths of the starry sky did the suffocating atmosphere in the long-suppressed Beidou Forbidden Zone suddenly ease.
The various restricted areas quickly suppressed all their presence, returning to deathly silence as if nothing had happened.
Deep within the forbidden zone, the divine senses of the Supreme Beings only dared to be freely released after Jiang Hao left.
"Damn it, how hateful..."
"Stay calm. What's wrong with tolerating him for a while on the path to immortality? The Daoist Master of the past established the Heavenly Court and ruled over all the heavens, even more glorious than this man, yet in the end he still turned to dust."
"Heh heh, daring to humiliate us like this, when he's old and his health declines, that will be the day we settle accounts with him, interest and all!"
"That's right, exactly!"
"Just wait, karma will catch up with you, and retribution will befall you!"
A divine thought emanated from the Meteor Sea, its tone icy.
"This man's actions today have severed him from all forbidden zones. Unless he cuts himself and sinks into those zones, he is destined to die of old age or in battle. At that time, his lineage will be destroyed and his bloodline will be extinguished!"
All sides of the universe closely watched the powerful figures of Beidou, and only when they confirmed that Jiang Hao had left and that no devastating war had broken out in Beidou did they truly breathe a sigh of relief.
"A two-week standoff between yakuza... thankfully, no fighting broke out!"
"Yes, if a war really breaks out, Beidou will probably be lost, and it will be another catastrophe."
"Single-handedly suppressing the eight forbidden zones of the Big Dipper, forcing countless ancient supreme beings to bow their heads in submission, offer treasures, and swear oaths... This Chaos Emperor is truly defying the heavens!"
"With such a powerful emperor ruling the world, surely we should be able to enjoy a rare period of peace for at least the next 20,000 years?"
Countless cultivators, whether from the Beidou region or other star fields, bowed deeply in the direction Jiang Hao had left.
There is relief, awe, and anticipation for the future.
At the end of the golden avenue, Jiang Hao stood alone in the starry sky, glancing back at the now quiet Big Dipper with a deep look in his eyes.
Today, they dominated the penalty area, seemingly achieving a great victory, acquiring countless treasures, and even forcing the penalty area to swear an oath to shut them down.
But he knew in his heart that all of this was based on his own peak and invincible combat power.
Those compromises made in the restricted areas were not out of genuine remorse, but rather out of forbearance due to the circumstances.
They are like venomous snakes lurking at the bottom of an abyss, now curled up, waiting for the moment when their strength and vitality wane before launching a fatal attack.
However, he didn't care. Today's move was simply to establish his authority, gain a period of stable development, and seize resources.
The objective has now been achieved.
"The Immortal Peach... although not a complete divine medicine, its medicinal effects are still astonishing."
"There are also those ancient scriptures and secret methods that need to be integrated into my 'Chaos Scripture' for further improvement."
He gathered his thoughts and looked in the direction of the ancient Ziwei star.
This journey of Beidou has aweed all races, intimidated forbidden zones, and yielded fruitful results.
Next, it was time to do another important thing: take revenge.
However, the target is not the forbidden zone, but the heavens.
He had never forgotten the help that Haotianzun and the Insect Mother had given him.
Now, naturally, a reckoning is needed.
The news that Chaos Emperor Jiang Hao had suppressed the eight forbidden zones in the Big Dipper Starfield, killed several Supreme Beings, and extorted treasures swept across the myriad realms like a cosmic storm.
After the initial shock and disbelief, fear and worry followed.
Especially those forces that had direct grudges against Jiang Hao, or those that showed hostility towards him when he attained enlightenment.
It can be said that Jiang Hao's every word and action now attracts the attention of countless people throughout the heavens.
A single word can startle the world; this is not an exaggeration, but the truth.
The celestial realm, once shrouded in auspicious clouds and filled with ethereal music, is now enveloped in an atmosphere of oppression and panic.
Ordinary Celestial Race cultivators at the lowest levels of the Heavenly Realm were already living in constant fear.
In the taverns and teahouses, everyone's face was pale as they whispered about the news from Beidou.
"The Burial Abyss has bowed its head... the Lake of Reincarnation has yielded... and two Supreme Beings have been slain..."
"That's a forbidden zone for life, a dangerous place that has existed for countless ages, and yet it's been forced to this point..."
"Our Heavenly Realm... back then, the Heavenly Lord Haotian..."
Before he could finish speaking, his companion covered his mouth in terror, but the fear in his eyes said it all.
Back then, Haotianzun and the Insect Mother joined forces to kill Jiang Hao, who was undergoing tribulation. As a result, one died and the other escaped. How could the Chaos Emperor forget this blood debt?
Now that he has begun to settle scores, can the celestial realm escape unscathed?
In the higher realms of the heavens, those high-ranking officials with profound cultivation and important positions were equally restless.
Inside the temple, the once majestic palace lords and divine generals were gathered together, but each of them had a furrowed brow and the atmosphere was solemn.
"The news has been confirmed. The Lord of the Burial God Abyss, the Heavenly Venerable of Reincarnation, had reached the pinnacle of his power but was killed within ten moves. The Supreme Venerable of Dawn was annihilated with a single finger. The strength of the Chaos Emperor far exceeds our expectations."
An old god dressed in a star-patterned robe spoke with a hoarse voice.
"With this power and influence, where will he go next?"
Another priestess worriedly said,
"Our celestial realm... will be the first to bear the brunt!"
"What Haotian Venerable did that day, although it represented his personal will, also used a portion of the fortune and laws of my Heavenly Realm... This cause and effect cannot be avoided."
A highly respected old Heavenly Emperor sighed.
"Are we just going to sit here and wait to die? Our Heavenly Realm is inherited from a fragment of the Immortal Realm, with profound foundations. How can we fear just one person?"
Some radical leaders roared, but their confidence was clearly lacking.
At this moment, within the most central and mysterious Heavenly Dao Palace of the Thirty-Three Heavens, the atmosphere was extremely oppressive.
This place is where the true rulers of the Heavenly Realm gather, ancient beings who are older than Haotian Zun and whose strength is no less than his.
There are five people in total, who are respectively called Juntian, Cangtian, Yantian, Xuantian, and Youtian, the Five Heavenly Venerables.
Each of them possessed an aura as deep as the sea, subtly merging with the origin of the celestial realm. They usually sat in various places, maintaining the operation and majesty of the celestial realm.
"Tell me, what should we do?"
The leader, Jun Tianzun, spoke calmly, but deep in his eyes lay an unyielding gloom.
He wore an ancient Taoist robe, his face blurred, as if he had merged with the Dao.
"What else can we do? If he dares to come, then we'll fight!"
Yan Tianzun had the most explosive temper, and the laws of fire faintly rose around his body.
"How can my Heavenly Realm be compared to those cowardly wretches who are clinging to life in the Burial Abyss of Gods and the Lake of Reincarnation? Although they have many people, they are all cowardly and fearful, and their hearts are not united. Our Heavenly Realm is not like that."
"Moreover, this is our home ground, blessed by the complete celestial origin, and with the Zhou Tian Realm Cauldron suppressing our fortune. No matter how strong Jiang Hao is, can he possibly destroy my entire celestial realm single-handedly?"
The Celestial Venerable remained calm and slowly said:
"War may be inevitable, but the cost must be weighed. The fall of the Jade Emperor is already a huge loss. If we suffer further losses, the Heavenly Realm will be severely weakened. How will we cope with the potential future struggles for immortality? How will we suppress the other great realms that are eyeing us with covetous intent?"
