Although they had destroyed the Heaven’s Proxy Group, the remnants of that organisation were never fully annihilated.

 

In the following years, the Great Sages who had formed an alliance faced retaliation. Many of them were killed, their Family members were forced to separate, their Forces were destroyed, and their Races were hunted down.

 

To save the Great Sages who had been captured by the remnants of Heaven’s Proxy Group, Nan Zun took a huge risk by pretending to submit to them. Her intention was to locate their headquarters to set her allies free.

 

The notes before Ling Yuling’s eyes contained Nan Zun’s experiences during that period. After she fled the organisation, she wrote this notes, hoping that someone would read it and come up with a solution in the future.

 

“The Master of the Heaven’s Proxy Group can never be killed. Although he has been sealed, he’ll return sooner or later. This is the belief the remnants of the Heaven’s Proxy Group hold onto. For this reason, they’ve been trying to snatch the six First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasures and destroy them,” Fairy Qing said calmly. Then, she explained to Ling Yuling the content of the notes.

 

“My Mother felt that when all six First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasures were gathered together, they could be used to seal the Master of the Heaven’s Proxy Group again when he returned. Therefore, the remnants of the Heaven’s Proxy Group have been eagerly trying to destroy those First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasures. That way, nothing in the world will be able to pose a threat to their Master. Fortunately, the six First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasures are mysterious. Other than those who took part in the battle against the Master of the Heaven’s Proxy Group, rarely anyone has seen those First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasures.”

 

“It is for this reason that many Civilisations where the Civilisation Supreme Treasures were created at a later time were destroyed as well. Even those Civilisation Supreme Treasures were also ruined.””

 

Ling Yuling remained silent. Although Fairy Qing had only explained the matter curtly, she could imagine that many Civilisations were buried in the River of Time for this reason during that period.

 

“If you really want to stop this calamity from happening, perhaps the only way is to look for the six Civilisation Supreme Treasures. As far as I’m concerned, only one First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasure which is the World Burying Coffin has been taken by that organisation.

 

“Just now, you told me about the reappearance of the Gate of Eternity. I’m sure that organisation has a way to detect the existence of the Gate of Eternity. Perhaps they’ll come looking for it.”

 

Fairy Qing’s voice was as emotionless as ever. It was as though she was talking about something that had nothing to do with her.

 

“The Gate of Eternity is not in my hands.” Ling Yuling shook her head. “If things are just like what you’ve said, I’m worried that the calamity that’s about to befall the Primary Hope Civilisation will be more horrifying than I’ve imagined.”

 

Upon hearing that, Fairy Qing did not say anything. She picked up a duster and started cleaning the Supreme Cave when there wasn’t even a speck of dust.

 

A moment later, Ling Yuling suddenly came to her senses. She became calm and collected again. “Since Nan Zun had been to that organisation, she surely knew where the headquarters is located.”

 

Fairy Qing turned around and looked at her with surprise. “So what if you find out where the headquarters is? Are you going to destroy that place on your own? I’ve been telling you all this so that you’ll give up on going against them. I’m surprised that you’re insistent and unwilling to give up. You’re similar to my Mother in this regard. Are the people from her era so righteous just like herself?”

 

Her lips curved when she finished speaking. It was hard to tell whether it was a sneer or a smile.

 

Ling Yuling ignored her scornful remark. She said solemnly, “So, you’re know where their headquarters is.”

 

“The Boundless Expanse is made up of trillions of Spacetimes, so there are definitely some hidden chaotic Spacetimes. In one of those chaotic Spacetimes, there’s a place that’s unrestricted by Principles. It’s neither in the past, present, nor the future. The place is called the Nightmare Demon Realm. You can certainly go there, but don’t blame it on me if you fall into danger. I’ve given you a heads-up,” Fairy Qing said impassively.

 

[The Nightmare Demon Realm?] Ling Yuling was still thinking about this name when she left the Floating Land. She had never heard of the name, so how was she supposed to look for the place?

 

Also, considering her current strength, what could she do even if she found out the location? She didn’t even know what kind of danger lay in the Nightmare Demon Realm.

 

She sighed and turned around to look at the Floating Land which was fading away. Then, she turned into a ray of light and dived into the Spacetime Sea, intending to return to the Imperial Celestial Palace.

 

As for what she should do next, she had to give it some thought.

 

She had a feeling that Fairy Qing was acting weirdly. Fairy Qing seemed to be aware of many things, but she was wary of something and unwilling to directly tell her the information.

 

According to her statement, there were many descendants of the Great Sages who were hiding from the remnants of the Heaven’s Proxy Group, just like those from the Floating Land in the depths of the Spacetime Sea.

 

Perhaps Ling Yuling could look for those survivors.

 

[I wonder if the Great Sage from Primary Hope Holy Church is still around. When more of my strength is restored, I’ll visit her. After all, she’s the owner of a First-Generation Civilisation Supreme Treasure. Many years have passed, but Primary Hope Holy Church is still around. They have never faced any retaliation. It seems that they have the protection of the Mirror of Reincarnation.]

 

Ling Yuling took a deep breath, feeling that the path ahead was full of challenges.

 

Back then, the Great Sages collaborated and were willing to sacrifice themselves to create a better future for the rest. Those splendid images flashed across Ling Yuling’s mind. Although she was on her own now, she was not afraid.

 

…

 

Meanwhile, in Primary Hope Civilisation, Primary Hope Holy Church, which was covered in a mist, stood on a still lake. The reflection made the Holy Church look like it had merged with Heaven and Earth.

 

The Primary Hope Saintess stepped on the lake bare-footed. Although she seemed to be walking slowly, she moved across thousands of kilometres in the blink of an eye.

 

The birthday banquet of the Celestial Suffering King, Chu Gucheng, was around the corner, and Elder Jin had invited her to attend the party. Naturally, she could not turn them down.

 

In the past, Chu Gucheng had visited her three times to borrow the Mirror of Reincarnation, but she turned him down with all sorts of excuses.

 

If she still refused to attend his birthday banquet, it was no different from humiliating him. Now, Land of Celestial Suffering was still one of the mightiest Forces, so the Primary Hope Saintess did not want to fully fall out with him.

 

Chu Gucheng was not a righteous person, so she did not want to give him a reason to criticise her.

 

Just then, several maidservants appeared behind the Primary Hope Saintess and asked respectfully, “Lady Saintess, do you need us to keep you company this time?”

 

As one of the oldest Forces in Primary Hope Civilisation, the Primary Hope Holy Church had a special status. Although there were few Disciples and Elders, each of them was powerful.

 

“There’s no need for that. I won’t be staying at the party for long.” The Primary Hope Saintess waved her hand without turning her head.

 

Primary Hope Holy Church was located in the centre of Primary Hope Civilisation, whereas Land of Celestial Suffering was located in a remote area. There was a long distance between the two places. Anyway, considering her power, it would not take her a long time to arrive at her destination.

 

Soon, she opened up a passage through Spacetime and disappeared into it.

 

The atmosphere in Land of Celestial Suffering was lively. Although the Beast Court was launching an attack on them, their cheerfulness was not affected.

 

The second day after the Heavenly Divine General was trapped, Chu Gucheng sent the other two Divine Generals to the battlefield. He also told several Star Kings to assist the two of them as they led an army to save the Heavenly Divine General.

 

Chu Gucheng was not afraid of the Beast Court. He would only be wary if the Beast Ancestor showed up on the battlefield.

 

The ample powerhouses in the Land of Celestial Suffering and their domineering way of doing things shocked the guests.

 

Other than Chu Gucheng, there were truly many hidden experts in Land of Celestial Suffering.

 

Even his children had been performing well during this period. Some of them were engaged to the people who came from other mighty Forces.

 

“The Fortuity of Land of Celestial Suffering is on the rise. We’ll never run out of luck just like a rising Dragon. I also have the Human Emperor Sigil. This coming calamity won’t be able to kill me.”

 

A proud Chu Gucheng stood atop a wall to look at his vast territory. He no longer felt so mournful over the death of his son.

 

The guests around him felt their emotions undulating. They were conflicted deep within.

 

Given enough time, Land of Celestial Suffering would become the strongest Force in Primary Hope Civilisation. Although they would not be able to rule over Primary Hope Civilisation, hardly any Force would be able to go against them.

 

The Beast Court used to be the ruler of Endless Beasts Territory, but they still could not destroy Land of Celestial Suffering. In fact, they could not even deal some serious damage to the other party.

 

Just then, Buddha Auras suddenly surged from the east of Land of Celestial Suffering. The illusory figures of Buddhas and Bodhisattvas were seen in the sky. Some voices were heard reciting an ancient scripture. Buddhas were laughing and Bodhisattvas were seated on clouds as they were approaching from a distance.

 

“It seems that the True Buddhas from the Tathagata Buddha Realm are coming.” Chu Gucheng put on a smile and was ready to greet them.

 

Meanwhile, an unusual phenomenon appeared in a different direction. A monochromatic mist was extending from that direction. A light illuminated the entire sky.

 

The people in the light were coming to Land of Celestial Suffering while riding on the river in the sky.

 

“Those from Bright Light Temple have also arrived. It seems that Chu Gucheng has invited all the Supreme Forces in Primary Hope Civilisation.”

 

The guests there could not help but be astonished.

 

The smile on Chu Gucheng’s face widened.
