The cultivators of Ziwei Imperial Palace traversed across the relic continent. This time, the cultivators of West Imperial Palace led by Xi Chiyao also traveled with them.

Along the way, they saw many cultivators. As for the relics, there were fewer of them. Ye Futian’s group had already plundered quite a few of the relics. They also gained a few emperor-level teachings. As for how many cultivators were here, aside from the emperor-level forces, there were also superpowers like the Ancient God Clans. There were cultivators from every world, as well as super cultivators who had been in seclusion.

With so many people here, the relics left behind since the Age of the Gods were naturally divided up and plundered.

As their group advanced, Xi Chiyao rushed over from another direction.

“How are things?” asked Ye Futian. Just now, Xi Chiyao had gone to gather intelligence. There were changes to the relic continent each day. They had lost a lot of time in the relic of House Karura. Many things must have occurred in the outside world.

Xi Chiyao reported, “News that the Devil Imperial Palace has found and occupied the relic of House Karura has already gotten out. It is not just the Devil Imperial Palace who has managed to do so. The emperor-level forces have managed to find the relics of the Eight Legions one after another. A number that have been confirmed. The Dark Court has found the relic of House Asura, whereas the Divine Prefecture found the relic of House Naga. Rumor has it that the cultivators of the Heaven Realm have discovered the relic of House Deva. It is also about to be opened.”

She had come across a lot of useful information.

She continued, “A huge mountain range has also appeared in the north. Many corpses with terrifying auras have been discovered there. Many cultivators are gradually heading over to that region. It is rumored that the relic of House Mahoraga of the Eight Legions might be located there.” Xi Chiyao looked at Ye Futian and said, “For now, I have heard that no emperor-level force has headed over there yet. Should we head there ourselves?”

Beneath the Heavenly Path were the Eight Legions. However, even including the Heavenly Emperor Realm, there were only seven emperor-level forces. Even if each force occupied one relic of the Eight Legions, there would still be one leftover.

If so, which force was most likely to occupy the last relic?

It was possible for the Ziwei Segmentum, which was the leader of the Original Realm. Although the West Imperial Palace was an Ancient God Clan, it was impossible for them to want to occupy a relic of one of the Eight Legions in such a chaotic situation. However, they might still have a chance to find the teachings of a Great Emperor.

“Let’s go,” said Ye Futian. The relic of House Karura had left him in awe with the many corpses of Great Emperors they found there. The relic of House Mahoraga, which was also one of the Eight Legions, would not disappoint.

Ye Futian was aware that although the power of Ziwei Imperial Palace was constantly growing now, they still had a long way to go to be on par with the emperor-level forces. This time, the various emperor-level forces had sent out almost all of their cultivators.

His ego had not bloated to the point that he believed that Ziwei Imperial Palace could contend with emperor-level forces in their current condition.

“Alright,” said Xi Chiyao. “Then, let’s head over there immediately.”

The group continued on their way. As they were traveling, Ye Futian asked Xi Chiyao, “Goddess Chiyao, what do you know about the Eight Legions?”

The West Imperial Palace was an Ancient God Clan. He wondered whether they knew some ancient secrets.

After all, the West Imperial Palace still had the will of a Great Emperor.

“They are legends from the Age of the Gods,” said Xi Chiyao. “Legends tell that beneath the Heavenly Path were the Eight Legions. They maintained the order of the world. Beneath the Heavenly Path, the cultivation world was extremely prosperous. Large numbers of super cultivators emerged. Hence, that age was known as the Age of the Gods.”

She continued, “The Eight Legions were led by House Deva, which resided in the Central Heaven Court. The Eight Legions each had their own duties. House Naga ruled over the demonic clans. House Asura ruled over the underworld and controlled life, death, and reincarnation. Legends say that they dared to contend with House Deva. The other legions also had their own responsibilities. They represented the Heavenly Path in the world. Rumor has it that the Heavenly Emperor Realm is connected to House Deva from ancient times.”

“So, the cultivators of the Heaven Realm discovering the location of House Deva is also due to this connection?” Ye Futian mumbled. “Back then, how did the Heavenly Emperor Realm fall into decline? What secrets lie behind all this? Do the forces of the Heaven Realm now have the ability to control the relic of the strongest House Deva?”

“I am not so familiar with the current ability of the Heaven Realm. They have kept an extremely low profile. Normally, it is difficult to even catch a glimpse of them. They rarely appear in other worlds and cultivate on their own,” said Xi Chiyao.

Ye Futian also felt that the Heaven Realm was extremely mysterious. The heir of the Heavenly Emperor Realm was extremely talented, and his ability was also very frightening. When they had fought, the other party used Donghuang Diyuan’s ability, Heaven Punishing Divine Sword.

Xi Chiyao said in a low voice, “However, I have heard some elders mention some secrets from back then. The ruler of the Heaven Realm had peerless talent and ability. Even the Devil Emperor, the Evil Emperor, and the other Great Emperors from back then avoided getting into a fight with him. However, unbeknownst why, he suddenly disappeared without a trace. Most likely, only the emperor-level forces know why. It seems that the various major emperor-level forces are secretive about these issues.” Her beautiful gaze revealed a pondering look. She seemed to also be curious about what happened back then.

“I have heard that Donghuang the Great was also involved in this,” commented Xi Chiyao, though she sounded uncertain.

Ye Futian revealed a strange look. He recalled the ability of the heir of the Heaven Realm. What Xi Chiyao said might be true.

Donghuang the Great was truly a legendary figure. There seemed to be stories of him everywhere. Be it from Master of Four Corner Village or in the World of Buddhism, his traces could be found everywhere.

Ye Futian was actually very curious about what sort of person Donghuang the Great was.

“From the looks of it, the Heaven Realm has such a deep background and has cultivated away from the world. They have not come in contact with the outside world and kept themselves hidden. After so many years, the power of the Heaven Court of the Heaven Realm might not be weaker than the other emperor-level forces,” said Ye Futian.

“It is possible,” said Xi Chiyao. “The last Heavenly Emperor was also a domineering figure.”

Ye Futian nodded his head. The ability of the current, low-profile Heaven Realm would most likely be revealed in the near future.

Ye Futian said, “This time, the relics of the gods have appeared, and the relics of the Eight Legions have been found one after another. If the Heaven Realm has truly discovered and occupied the relic of House Deva, the other emperor-level forces will not allow them to do so easily. A huge battle will certainly erupt.”

House Deva was the leader of the Eight Legions. Its relic would undoubtedly be a main target of contention for the emperor-level forces. Even if the emperor-level forces had already found a relic of the Eight Legions, who wouldn’t want more emperor-level teachings?

Of course, it was better to have more.

“That’s right. Even though the relics of the Eight Legions have surfaced one after another, there are bound to be battles in the future,” Xi Chiyao acknowledged Ye Futian’s words. In reality, it was difficult for her idea of Ziwei Imperial Palace occupying a relic to come to fruition. It depended on their luck and fate.

This continent of the gods would not just be here for a day or two. It was now permanently part of the Original Realm.

They kept traveling north. However, it still took them a long time to reach the mountain range.

Before they arrived, Ye Futian’s group slowed down. They glanced ahead far into the distance. There seemed to be divine mountains bordering the sky in the heavens above. Countless mountains towered into the sky. It appeared to be a mountain range from ancient times.

Although they were still far away, Ye Futian’s group already sensed a mysterious aura. There was also a formless pressure as well as an old will.

In the surrounding space, many people traversed the skies and came to this place. There were also many cultivators below who surged over to this ancient mountain range one after another.

In reality, before them, many cultivators had already ended up perishing in the mountain range and now lay there forever.

“We have arrived,” said Xi Chiyao. Although it was her first time here, she naturally sensed that the place that they were looking for was up ahead.

“Mahoraga,” mumbled Ye Futian. The Eight Legions maintained the world order beneath the Heavenly Path during ancient times. People of the present were far too old and seemed alien. Of course, they also garnered respect.

“Rumor has it that among the Eight Legions, House Mahoraga was proficient in battle. This house had no taboos and acted recklessly. However, their combat ability was indeed powerful. Some people called them demon gods while others called them spirits,” said Xi Chiyao. As they spoke, they approached the divine mountain range. There were only countless cultivators here. There were no relics in sight. They must have been plundered clean by the cultivators these past few days. They probably would only find fateful encounters by going deep into the divine mountains.

Ye Futian stopped when they reached the outskirts of the divine mountains. He looked at the ancient mountains ahead. The mysterious pressure was growing more intense. It seemed to be everywhere.

“Be careful,” Ye Futian warned in a low voice. “I sense that these endless mountains seem to possess wills. If this is the base of House Mahoraga, it is possible these are the wills left behind by the ancestors of House Mahoraga that have merged with the mountains.”

The crowd nodded with serious expressions. This was where the relic of House Mahoraga, one of the Eight Legions, was located. It might be the only relic of the Eight Legions they could contend for. The other locations were already beyond their grasp.

“Come, let’s go,” said Ye Futian. Their group entered into the divine mountain region, heading deep inside.

The group slowed down and were much more cautious now than before. Within these divine mountains, corpses could be seen from time to time. They must have been cultivators who had come seeking fateful encounters.

“It is so unpleasant. My heart rate has increased,” said Lord Chen to the side. The others also nodded their heads.. Everyone felt an unpleasant aura. Where was this mysterious pressure coming from?
