Five-Colored Divine Light
"Have you heard? In Yunlan Prefecture, which is only three hundred miles from our Imperial Capital, a Sacred Medicine has appeared, causing a great battle among cultivators. I heard that several Peak of Humanity have also appeared."
"That's nothing. You don't know, Ancient Mine has appeared in Youzhou City, 800 miles away, attracting countless people to mine there. I heard that someone even found Divine Source in the Ancient Mine."
"Hey, I heard about that too. It's a pity about that person. He was too weak. Not only was he unable to protect the treasure, but he also lost his life. I heard that the entire Ancient Mine was turned into Blood Prison Land in order to seize that Divine Source."
"What is a mere Divine Source? You don't know, last night a True Dragon Skeleton appeared in Longshou Prefecture, attracting many Peak of Humanity to take action, almost erasing Longshou Prefecture from the map of the Dali Li."
"Ah, thankfully we're in the Imperial Capital. No matter how turbulent the Dali is now, the Imperial Capital is as stable as Mount Tai. With our meager strength, we don't need to compete for such fortuitous opportunity. We'll be content with just surviving the rest of our lives peacefully."
"Stop talking. The peaceful life in the Imperial Capital is about to be shattered. You don't know that the Prince of King Zhennan's 300,000 troops are plundering resources like crazy."
"That Hu Jie is even more extraordinary, having actually obtained a Blessed Land. I'm afraid it won't be long before the power under these two will experience a leap forward. How can the other King of Different Surname sit idly by when they see this!"
"I fear that before long, the other King of Different Surname will also rise up in rebellion, and only then will the entire Dali be in complete chaos."
"The four King of Different Surname guard the Dali directions of Dali, with a history of thousands of years and unfathomable strength. If these four King of Different Surname were to raise an army at the same time, I fear the Great Li Imperial Family would suffer a severe blow!"
Hanlin Academy, by the window.
Ye Jing sat quietly in his chair, listening to the discussions of the Hanlin Academy Official around him, a hint of solemnity in his eyes.
He has been compiling Ancient Texts for several months. The Heaven and Earth Cataclysm are major events involving the entire Profound Yellow Great World, and the Ancient Texts record them in great detail.
Sacred Medicine, Divine Source, and the withered bones of a true dragon! These are all rare treasures that are hard to find in the world, especially the withered bones of a true dragon.
Ancient Texts record that the body of a true dragon contains a treasure technique— the True Dragon Treasure Technique! That is a truly invincible offensive technique.
To comprehend the complete True Dragon Treasure Technique from the bones of a true dragon is as difficult as ascending to heaven, but even an incomplete one is still incredibly valuable and possesses astonishing power.
But he remembered that according to Ancient Texts records, such a rare and precious object did not seem to have appeared at the beginning of the Fifth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm!
Not to mention at the beginning of the Fifth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm, even when the Fifth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm reached its peak, there were almost no treasures in the Dali that could rival these divine objects.
The Sixth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm event was indeed far more spectacular than the previous ones, but these three divine artifacts would still be highly sought after even across the entire Central Continent.
No matter how grand the Sixth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm event was, Ye Jing felt it was highly unlikely that these three divine objects would appear in the Dali, especially at the very beginning of the cataclysm!
Could it be that my words back then were truly a prophecy, and the center of the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth is gradually shifting towards Dali?
Ye Jing was taken aback and shook his head. If his words were to come true, it would be an even greater disaster for him!
If all the powerful figures in the entire Xuanhuang World were to flock to Dali, with his meager strength—not even that of God of Heaven and Earth —he would probably just be cannon fodder!
Setting aside his distracting thoughts, Ye Jing picked up the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking and began to read it.
The Dali chaos has already begun, and disintegration may be imminent. There won't be many peaceful days left. We must seize the moment and work hard to improve our strength.
He is currently looking at the deeds of the Peacock Divine King, who is ranked 30th on the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking.
The Peacock Divine King was of extremely noble birth, and his body contained as much as 70% Phoenix Blood, making his bloodline power extremely strong.
Peacock Divine King possessed extraordinary talent from a young age. His unparalleled abilities were unmatched even among the Ancient Demon Race. Many powerful figures of the Ancient Demon Race claimed that he had the potential to become Emperor and was one of the most promising candidates to become the Demon Race Emperor.
He lived up to the expectations of these powerful Demon Race. Even in his youth, the Peacock Divine King possessed astonishing combat prowess. Among the Demon Race of his generation, few could rival him.
Upon reaching adulthood, his strength became even more extraordinary. In just a few hundred years, he became Heavenly Demon. His Innate Divine Ability, the Five-Colored Divine Light, instilled fear in many older generation Demon Race clan experts. He was an absolute top cultivator among the Demon Race at that time.
The Peacock Divine King's early life was extremely glorious, but his later life was extremely tragic.
The Peacock Divine King was born during the height of the Ancient Demon Race, when the Ancient Demon Race's power reached its peak, occupying half of the Xuanhuang Heaven and Earth's territory.
The domineering Ancient Demon Race aroused the dissatisfaction of the major sects of the Xuanhuang World at that time. The Buddhism and the Daoism both took action to punish the Ancient Demon Race.
The Peacock Divine King led the Ancient Demon Race to resist the Sky Mending Sect, Daoism of the three supreme Daoist sects at that time.
This was the Peacock Divine King's most glorious battle. Once he unleashed his Innate Divine Ability, the Five-Colored Divine Light, none of the members of the Sky Mending Sect could withstand him.
Finally, he provoked the Sky Mending Sect Leader Daoism the time, to take action, shattering his Five-Colored Divine Light and imprisoning him in the Sky Mending Sect for life, destroying all his Demon Power.
[You have witnessed the life of the Peacock Divine King. You were very attentive, which has inspired Heaven-Defying Comprehension.]
[Your Heaven-Defying Comprehension; you have comprehended the Innate Divine Ability, Five-Colored Divine Light.]
Ye Jing slowly opened his eyes, waking up from his sudden realization, a look of shock and confusion on his face!
Seven gates now. In the past few days, he has read the biographies of seven Heavenly Demons and comprehended seven Great Divine Ability from them. His strength has increased, which is certainly something to be happy about, but there is still a trace of confusion in his eyes.
Unleashing Heaven-Defying Comprehension is not without conditions; he can only gain insights from real events.
The Ancient Era are too far removed from the present day, and the authenticity of many Ancient Texts records is questionable. Otherwise, he would not have gained any understanding despite reading so many Mythological Classics in the Pure Purity Bookshop.
Who exactly was the person who compiled the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking? How could they know so much about the Ancient Demon Race, as if they had witnessed it all firsthand?
Furthermore, since he was able to glean Great Divine Ability from the deeds of these seven Heavenly Demons, could the remaining thirty also be true?
Ye Jing wasn't greedy before. After all, if an ordinary person could comprehend even one of those six Great Divine Ability, they would have the capital to roam freely in the world.
He had mastered all six gates, and his combat power far surpassed that of others in the same realm. Although he was only a 'Entering the Dao' existence among the most powerful Peak of Humanity, apart from the Sword Sect Master who could easily defeat him, the other powerful figures in the Dali might not be his match.
Ye Jing had always been satisfied with his progress in strength, but the anomaly that occurred in the Sixth Heaven and Earth Cataclysm in Dali made him suddenly realize something.
He cannot focus solely on Dali; he must broaden his horizons and plan ahead for the future.
Although the Peacock Divine King possessed immense strength, he was only ranked thirtieth on the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking. If everything recorded on the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking was true, wouldn't the Great Divine Ability that the higher-ranked Heavenly Demon could comprehend be even stronger?
Ye Jing picked up the Ancient Heavenly Demon Ranking from the desk and continued reading it carefully.
