"This place is called Above the Sky Sect?"
Wu Junshi asked.
Lu Buzheng's lips curled up. "Let's go in first."
Wu Junshi did not hesitate to attack. What a joke! Go in?
With those two giant monsters around, how could he possibly go in?
He wanted to return to Shenwu Continent through that path. No matter how difficult it was, he had to go back.
The tri-colored energy rumbled towards Lu Buzheng like a dragon. Lu Buzheng's face sank. "So it's an unwelcome guest. Then, don't blame me for being impolite." He then raised his hand and slapped down. The enormous strength not only dispersed the tri-colored energy, but it also pushed Wu Junshi back. The terrifying strength left Wu Junshi in disbelief, and the tri-colored energy flowed backwards, almost choking him to death.
"A Demigod?"
Wu Junshi was shocked and did not dare to attack again.
"Oh, a Demigod is called a Demigod in your world?
Does that mean that a Demigod is a Monarch?
That's really high and mighty, "Lu Buzheng said.
Wu Junshi stared at Lu Buzheng. "I'm just passing by. There's no need to be so aggressive."
Lu Buzheng looked at Bei Hong. "That's not how Shenwu Continent talks about it. How do you want to settle the debt between Mingde and the ministers?"
Wu Junshi gritted his teeth, as he had been tricked. This space-time was not that simple. It seemed like there was not a single expert here, but in reality, they had just wanted to lure him here. "I can compensate you."
"Alright, cut the crap. The Daoist is waiting for you. Don't make the Daoist impatient." Lu Buzheng took a step forward and appeared in front of Wu Junshi. "Or do you want to spar?"
Wu Junshi gulped, but in the end, he had no choice. "I'll go with you."
Not everyone was like Lu Yin and Qing Ping when facing a Demigod powerhouse. Rather, such people were far too rare, and only a few had appeared in the long river of time. Normal cultivators, even those who were infinitely close to becoming a Demigod, would find it difficult to fight against a Demigod, let alone Lu Buzheng, who was a Demigod from the Lu family's Above the Sky Sect. He was recognized as one of the sect masters of Elysium, and even Xingyuan's accident had not affected him.
Lu Buzheng led Wu Junshi and Bei Hong towards the Above Heaven Sect.
The closer they got to the Heavenly Sect, the more Lord Wu could feel the terrifying and boundless power of the Prison Dragon. Every breath he took made his heart jump. He was worried that he would be eaten. He had only felt this kind of feeling from the Lord. These two monsters couldn't be at the Monarch Realm, right? If that was the case, the Heavenly Sect might really be the illusory land of gods in his memories.
Along the way, Bei Hong had a pious expression as he followed Lu Buzheng.
Lord Wu continued to observe the Heavenly Sect and heaved a sigh of relief. It was not as terrifying as he had imagined. The Heavenly Sect was the same as the places he had passed by before. Most of the people there did not have much power. It should be that the resources of the entire space-time were only for a few people to use. In the end, the monsters that were nurtured were actually the same as their space-time.
That's good. This Above Heavens Sect really has the same name.
At this moment, they had arrived at the stairway to heaven. The Lady of Fate walked down slowly, deep in thought.
When Lu Buzheng saw the Lady of Fate, he subconsciously wanted to avoid her.
Fate's Daughter completely ignored him. She was thinking about how to get the Book of Destiny out of Lu Yin's hands. She really wanted it.
The closer Lord Wu got to the Lady of Fate, the more pressure he felt. It was the same as Lu Buzheng behind him; it was another Demigod.
They climbed up the stairway and arrived outside the main hall. The Blood Ancestor walked out and nodded at Lu Buzheng before disappearing.
Lord Wu stood there in a daze, overwhelmed with shock. Wasn't this the pressure of a Monarch?
The Blood Ancestor had looked directly at him, but that feeling was exactly the same as when Mu Jun had looked at him. That was a feeling that only a Monarch could have. Was that person a Monarch?
Lord Wu's eyes flickered. No one knew what he was thinking, but his mind was blank.
A Monarch was completely different from a Demigod. They were two completely different concepts. Even if there were a hundred Demigods standing in front of him right now, they would not be as shocking as a single Monarch.
"Let's go," Lu Buzheng urged.
Lord Wu continuously gulped. For the first time, his gaze towards the main hall was filled with fear and obedience that seemed to have been practiced millions of times. This familiarity was much more familiar than his previous holiness. It was as if it was innate and carved into his bones.
As soon as he stepped out of the main hall, Lord Wu's mentality collapsed. He slowly walked forward as if he was on a pilgrimage, his eyes fixed on the ground the entire time.
"Look up," a clear voice called out. It was very young, but it had a feeling that Lord Wu had no choice but to obey. It was as if this person's words were something that he should do.
Lord Wu slowly looked up and saw a youth who was looking at him curiously.
When he saw this youth, Lord Wu hurriedly bowed. "Greetings, my lord."
Bei Hong found this strange, as this person had changed too quickly. Previously, Lord Wu had acted like a tyrant on the Shenwu Continent and acted as if he wanted to rule over the Fifth Mainland. Now, he was directly kowtowing to Lu Yin. The more Bei Hong looked at him, the more this person seemed like a servant.
"Greetings, Daozi." Bei Hong bowed respectfully.
Lu Yin nodded. "No need for formalities." He sat down, but when he saw Lord Wu's gaze fall down again, he found it funny. He already knew what had happened on the Shenwu Continent, and this person was rather interesting. He did not understand the situation in this spacetime, but he wanted to act like a tyrant.
"Sit," Lu Yin said.
Lord Wu hurriedly replied, "This lowly one does not dare."
"If I tell you to sit, then sit," Lu Yin repeated.
Lord Wu looked apprehensive, and then he looked at the chair. He walked over and slowly sat down, half of his butt resting on it.
Lu Buzheng found this strange, as this person's attitude was rather strange. Lord Wu was a powerhouse who was close to becoming a Half-Ancestor, so why did he act like a servant?
"Bei Hong, you sit as well," Lu Yin said.
Bei Hong bowed deeply. "Daozi, this lowly one." "Alright, sit." Lu Buzheng sat down next to Lu Yin.
Bei Hong took a deep breath. Just like Lord Wu, he carefully sat down.
The Shenwu Continent was too insignificant compared to the entire Fifth Mainland. Lord Wu had served Ming Zhaotian, followed by Ming Zhaoshu, Ming Yan, and finally Ming De. He had served four emperors, and on the Shenwu Continent, his reputation was no less than Ming De's. He was truly above everyone else, but even so, he had never thought that he would one day be able to sit here in the main hall of the Tianshang Sect.
His son, Bei Qing, had left the Shenwu Continent long ago to follow Lu Yin, and he was considered one of Lu Yin's top subordinates. However, he had never set foot in this main hall before. The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, and his gratitude towards Lu Yin grew even deeper.
At this moment, Lu Yin looked at Lord Wu. "Speak. You should know what I want to hear."
Lord Wu hurriedly stood up and stared at the ground in front of Lu Yin. He respectfully said, "This lowly one comes from a parallel spacetime to the three sovereigns. In order to escape pursuit, I unintentionally came to this spacetime. Please forgive me if I have offended you."
"That's all?"
Lu Yin's tone was calm, and he did not force Lord Wu to speak, nor did he believe him. The three sovereigns had been carved at the bottom of the Tower of Resonating Light.
The Sage had asked, so this was where he had come from.
Lord Wu's eyes widened. "There's more." He bent his finger. "This lowly one was in the three sovereigns' space, and my mission was to keep an eye on the passage that led to this spacetime. The moment it opened, I was to immediately report to the three sovereigns."
"Gu Yue. You should be familiar with this name," Lu Yin said.
Lord Wu glanced at Bei Hong. He had not hidden what he had said on the Shenwu Continent. Bei Hong, Ming De, and the others had all heard it, so Lu Yin naturally knew about it as well.
"That passage was discovered by Gu Yue and a senior from the three sovereigns' space. They used the coordinates of the Eternals to locate it," Lord Wu replied.
Lu Yin looked at him. "Tell me the details."
Lord Wu did not hide anything. Since they were already here, there was no need to hide anything. He slowly recounted a part of the Fifth Mainland's history that no one else knew about. Even Gu Yue's master, Gu Yan, did not know about this part of history because it had started after Gu Yue had arrived on the Fifth Mainland.
Gu Yan had never mentioned why Gu Yue had come to the Fifth Mainland from the Cosmic Tree Realm. Lord Wu only knew about what had happened after Gu Yue had accidentally entered the three sovereigns' space. This was not a secret within the three sovereigns' space.
"Gu Yue came to the three sovereigns' space and traveled for a hundred years, making many friends. At that time, he did not reveal that he had come from another spacetime. It was only when his friends found out that he revealed that he had accidentally obtained the coordinates of the Eternals and that he could locate his own spacetime. No one knows what happened between them, but not long after he had opened up the passage, Gu Yue used his sourcebox array to seal the passage. The passage was still there, but even the three sovereigns were unable to open it, so they sent me to keep an eye on it.
"It wasn't until yesterday that I accidentally discovered that the passage could be opened, so I came here. As I said, I was being hunted down."
Lu Yin's expression changed. Coordinates?
Was it that seal?
"Where are the coordinates?"
Lord Wu replied, "I don't know, but it's definitely not in our spacetime. Otherwise, the three sovereigns would have arrived long ago. They should be at the previous location."
Lu Yin looked at Bei Hong. "Look for the Tower of Resonating Light and see if there's anything similar to the seal."
Bei Hong hurriedly stood up and acknowledged the order before leaving. There were some things that he was not supposed to hear, so it was a good time for him to leave.
Lu Yin looked at Lord Wu. "So Gu Yue didn't use the five sealing planets' array to seal Shenwu Continent for no reason. What he really wanted to seal was the three sovereigns' spacetime?"
Lord Wu respectfully replied, "That should be the case."
"Then, tell me about your spacetime." Lu Yin was curious.
Lord Wu nodded. From start to finish, he had not looked at Lu Yin at all. Instead, he had been staring at the ground the entire time. "Our three sovereigns' spacetime were not called this a long time ago, but no one remembers our original names. The reason why we call ourselves this way is because of the three powerful sovereigns who controlled spacetime: Lord Luo, Lord Mu, and Lord Xing. They were all sovereigns and were even husband and wife. They had controlled spacetime for many years, and everyone submitted to them. Even their cultivation levels and power attributes originated from the three sovereigns."
"Husband and wife?"
Lu Buzheng was puzzled.
Lord Wu explained, "Lord Luo is a man, and Lord Mu and Lord Xing are his wives."
Lu Buzheng was shocked. "There's such a thing?"
Lu Yin was puzzled. "Is it that surprising?"
Lu Buzheng replied, "A sovereign is equivalent to a Progenitor."
