Long Time No See, Barren Martial Realm

The earth-shattering changes at the Azure Cloud Immortal Palace quickly spread to the other sixty-two immortal cities within the country, causing a huge uproar!

When the millions of cultivators in Soaring Clouds first heard this news, they were all dumbfounded and almost dropped their jaws in shock.

What timeline has this guy come from? Is this still his own puppet Empress?

"The Three Great Clans were all wiped out in a single day! Our Empress is truly unfathomable! The Soaring Clouds is about to change!"

"Yes, it's terrifying that the Three Great Clans, whose influence in the country is so deeply rooted, could be completely uprooted and eradicated!"

"Excellent! This is truly gratifying! I have long disliked these Three Great Clans. They are traitors and rebels, bringing chaos to the world! Everyone has the right to kill them! I have heard that the imperial court is recruiting geniuses and strong individuals on a large scale. I am willing to give it a try!"

For a time, there were many different opinions within the Azure Cloud Immortal Dynasty, and countless forces, large and small, and cultivators from all walks of life had different thoughts.

The legacy left by the old immortal master was long ago divided up by the Three Great Clans, and the Ouyang Immortal Clan was also slaughtered until only Empress Ouyang Ning remained. It was absolutely impossible for her to accomplish this feat by herself.

That leaves only one possibility: the Empress has an incredibly powerful force backing her! Soaring Clouds's rise is imminent! If not now, when?

At this point, many renowned geniuses and powerful figures who dominated their respective regions within the Azure Cloud Immortal Dynasty flocked to the Azure Cloud Imperial Capital like a tidal wave.

In the Azure Cloud Imperial Capital, everything had returned to normal in just three days.

All the royalist ministers who had been suppressed by the Three Great Clans returned to the court one after another. Ouyang Ning also recruited a group of loyal new officials from various immortal cities to fill the huge vacancies, and the operation of the court was quickly restored.

On the day the Grand Court Assembly was reopened, after all the new and old officials had arrived, Ouyang Ning announced a major piece of news in public, bestowing titles upon Six Mysterious Exalted Ones at once.

Every supreme being's power surpasses that of the emperor, and this is true even for her, as Empress.

All of Soaring Clouds's civil and military officials were completely convinced by this.

It's not hard to guess the identities of these six supreme beings; they must be powerful figures who stand behind the Empress and strongly support her.

With the help of eliminating the Three Great Clans and returning to the court, Soaring Clouds is bound to rise to power. What is there to complain about?

He was speechless... This colleague next to him could help entertain the six venerable ones.

At the same time, news that the God Demon Illusionary Realm had been postponed for another ten years spread to every corner of the Three Great Dao Domains.

This news was released by the Immortal Surveillance Pavilion's Heaven's Mandate Division and is absolutely true.

Because from the moment the Heaven's Mandate Division was established, every prediction and prophecy they made was accurate.

This news did not cause much discussion or sensation, after all, whether it was postponed by half a year or ten years, it was just a blink of an eye for immortals.

"Postponing the opening of the Illusion Realm? This is getting more and more interesting."

In the Immortal Rainbow Dao Domain, east of the Qinghan Immortal Prefecture, above the Hidden Immortal Sea, a nine-headed golden Divine Dragon, hundreds of thousands of miles long, tore through the heavens and earth!

Each golden dragon exuded an incomparably powerful aura of Quasi Immortal Emperor, and every wisp of that aura caused the heavens and earth to tremble!

Nevertheless, the nine golden dragons simply pulled the enormous flying chariot forward silently, which gives you an idea of how terrifying the person inside was!

No seats! Inside the flying chariot was the legendary man, the Lord of the Origin of the Desolate Martial World, the Lord of the Lower Heaven of the Celestial Realm, the Lord of the Upper Heaven and Lower Dao Domains of the Celestial Realm, the only Chaos Immortal Emperor of the Upper Three Dao Domains of the Celestial Realm, and the Lord of Qingyun, Feng Qingyang!

"Sect Master, do you mean that the delay in opening the Illusion Realm was deliberately interfered with? Hiss! Who else but the Sect Master could have such power?" The Black Emperor, who was obediently lying at Feng Qingyang's feet, asked in astonishment.

"But these are just minor tricks, nothing to worry about."

Feng Qingyang was merely curious about the deeper meaning behind the scenes, and didn't care much about the methods used to postpone the Illusion Realm, as he possessed the unique All Heavens Dao Principles and the supreme divine power, the Annihilation Sky Divine Eyes.

He sensed the subtle changes in the laws of nature a few days ago, and it can be said that nothing in this world can escape his discerning eye.

However, he didn't intervene, wanting to see what tricks those people from Sky Beyond the Sky were up to this time.

Heh, it's just the prey's last few performances before it dies; everything is under its control.

[Current Hidden Quest: The Path to Barren Martial Advancement. Transform the Huangwu into the Number One Realm in all the heavens. Completion will grant incredible rewards. Note: The reward mechanism for this quest has been changed according to the Lord's will.]

"Hmm?" Feng Qingyang, who was checking his personal interface with ease, discovered an unexpected surprise when he scanned the very back.

"System, tell me, what's the new reward system for this hidden quest?"

I had complained to the system about this reward mechanism before. The current Barren Martial Realm is only a high-level Great World, and the highest level it can support is Heaven Immortal Realm. If the reward is only given after the Desolate Martial Continent is built into the number one world in the heavens, it would take forever. I had forgotten about it for a while.

[Ding! The system has changed this to a phased mission according to the host's wishes. Rewards will be given for each advancement in the Desolate Martial Continent, and the mysterious and heaven-defying reward for completing the final mission remains unchanged.]

Feng Qingyang nodded in satisfaction. "Good, good, good, this is truly my thoughtful system. Next time you distribute rewards, don't forget to include the reward for the last Huangwu advancement."

The Desolate Martial Continent has already advanced once, so it's reasonable for them to request additional rewards, right?

[System: Uh...]

After his divine sense withdrew from the system space, Feng Qingyang had a thought and an invisible energy instantly threw the Black Emperor out of the Immortal Emperor-level flying chariot.

"Holy crap!" The Black Emperor, who had been lying down perfectly fine, was completely dumbfounded. After being sent flying, it quickly circulated its cultivation to stabilize itself before landing steadily on one of the golden dragons pulling a chariot.

"What's going on? Hmm... Master must have been afraid of hurting himself by using some kind of heaven-defying magic treasure, so he 'sent' me out? Yes! That's the truth! Master is so considerate!"

Black Emperor let his imagination run wild, his expression shifting from surprise to delight. But why did the golden dragon beneath him seem to be laughing at him?

As Feng Qingyang stretched out his palm in the flying chariot, the magnificent Barren Martial Origin and Barren Martial Heavenly Dao slowly emerged on his left hand.

"When Huangwu first advanced, he was only at the third level of the Golden Immortal Third Level realm."

"At that time, I was just Azure Cloud Sect for myself in the Lower Heavens realms."

"At that time, I made a promise to use the Huangwu as my foundation and the Azure Cloud Sect as my pillar to Jun Lin All Heavens and Myriad Realms!"

"It's been a long time, Barren Martial Realm."

"Fusion, Advancement!"

(Nothing much to say yet, just wishing everyone a happy Singles' Day on May 21st.)
