Supreme Warrior in the City-Chapter 2381: Ancient Secrets

"It’s not easy! It’s not easy!" The elder sighed repeatedly, "In a Small World, even a Saint-level mighty figure is rare to appear. Unexpectedly, you have cultivated to the Saint King Level, and an Intermediate Saint King at that, which is truly rare. Young man, you have great potential, with time, you will definitely become a Saint Emperor dominating one side. I estimate, your future achievements might not be any less than Dao Ji!"

"You know Dao Ji, senior?" Su Yang asked in surprise, this was already the second time he had heard this name. However, it was very obvious that Dao Ji’s reputation should be well-known in this Great World.

"I had a brief encounter!" The elder said, "The origins of Dao Ji are still a mystery. When he first appeared, he knew nothing about this Great World, yet he was unimaginably powerful. Due to his stubborn personality and chivalrous heart, he simultaneously provoked the Guardian Gods, Demon Beast Clan, and Heavenly War Alliance, being hunted down by countless powerful individuals. And he, with sheer strength, slayed a thousand mighty figures during this persecution, single-handedly overthrew thirteen Demon Beast Dynasties, and founded the Tao Sect. Afterwards, he repeatedly challenged three Great Saint Emperors, battled the Guardian Three Extremes, defeated two protectors of the Heavenly War Alliance, ranking absolutely among the top five strongest in this Great World. His creation of the Tao Sect thoroughly became the fourth great force apart from the three ruling powers of this Great World. Whether it be the Guardian Gods, Demon Beast Clan, or the current Heavenly War Alliance, they all have to acknowledge the existence of the Tao Sect!"

Listening to the elder’s words, Su Yang’s heart was truly shaken to the extreme. So it seems, this Dao Ji is really a Heaven-defying Level existence.

With his own strength, he contended against the three most powerful forces in this world, founded the Tao Sect, becoming one of the great powers ruling this Great World. Such accomplishments, who could not admire them, who could not be shaken?

"Senior Dao Ji is so heaven-defying, how can a junior like me compare!" Su Yang respectfully said.

"Young man, don’t underestimate yourself!" The elder softly said, "When Dao Ji first appeared, he was already seventeen hundred years old. Moreover, his origins are far better than yours. He should be from an Intermediate World with sufficient Spiritual Energy at his disposal. And you, now less than two hundred years old, hailing from a Small World, with no Xuan-level Spiritual Energy available, have cultivated to this step, which is already remarkable!"

"Thank you, senior, for your praise!" Su Yang said calmly, he never thought he could stand on par with Dao Ji. The only thing he wanted was to guard the Nine Realms.

"We’ve strayed off topic." The elder chuckled and said, "You just asked about farming, this matter is rather complex. Let me briefly tell you, do you know that true cultivators have four realms in Heaven and Earth, Xuan and Huang?"

Su Yang nodded, the elder continued, "Since you know this, discussing this matter will be easier. Cultivators have these four realms, and in the Three Thousand Great Worlds, no one can escape these four realms. But in fact, nowadays, no one in the Three Thousand Great Worlds can reach the Heaven and Earth realms, the highest only peak at the Xuan Level, unable to enter Earth and Heavenly Levels. Do you know why?"

Su Yang shook his head, he had heard some of these things before but didn’t really know why. So it seemed, the strongest in the Three Thousand Great Worlds could only be Saint Emperors, not possibly stronger?

Thus, the task of the Nine Realms wasn’t too heavy. As long as more Saint Emperors were nurtured in the Nine Realms, the Nine Realms could be preserved?

"The reason for this is that there’s already no Earth-level Spiritual Energy and Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy in the Three Thousand Great Worlds!" The elder explained, "You know, to advance to the Xuan Realm, you need Xuan-level Spiritual Energy. Similarly, to enter the Earth-level Realm, you need Earth-level Spiritual Energy. Likewise, to move to the Heavenly Realm, you need Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy. Without these energies, you cannot advance to Earth and Heavenly Levels."

"Why is there no such energy anymore?" Su Yang asked curiously.

"This traces back to the matter of the Heaven Slayer severing the Heavenly Dao." The elder said, "Originally there was Earth-level Spiritual Energy and Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy. However, an Ancient war took place, a Heaven-defying mighty figure severed the Heavenly Dao, completely shattered the Heavenly Dao, causing Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy to vanish completely. And the Guardian Gods, protected by the Heavenly Dao, lost their protection due to the shattering of the Heavenly Dao, leading to a war between the Guardian Gods and the Heavenly Warriors. The Heavenly Warriors wielding the Earth Principle shattered the Earth Principle during that battle, causing Earth-level Spiritual Energy to also completely disperse. So, until now, there has been no Earth-level Spiritual Energy and Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy!"

Su Yang was utterly shocked, how could he have imagined that the disappearance of Earth-level Spiritual Energy and Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy was due to this reason? Was Heavenly Level Spiritual Energy dispersed due to the Heaven Slayer severing the Heavenly Dao? And Earth-level Spiritual Energy was shattered by the Guardian Gods?

"What exactly are the Heavenly Dao and Earth Principle?" Su Yang asked.

The elder shrugged, "That, I truly don’t know. Such is the legend, but now, apart from the ancient records of the Guardian Gods, no one knows what the Heavenly Dao and Earth Principle really are."

"What about the Heavenly War Alliance?" Su Yang asked, "The Guardian Gods have ancient records, doesn’t the Heavenly War Alliance have any?"

"You mean the current Heavenly War Alliance?" The elder scoffed dismissively, "They’re just a bunch of frauds, not a real Heavenly War Alliance at all. They are not the same people as the former Heavenly Warriors!"

"Ah?" Su Yang was surprised, "How could it be like this?"

"What difference does it make? The current Guardian Gods aren’t the same as the former Guardian Gods!" The elder said, "Didn’t I tell you, after the Ancient Heaven Slayer severed the Heavenly Dao, a war broke out between the Guardian Gods and Heavenly Warriors. Eventually, the Earth Principle was shattered, and both the Guardian Gods and Heavenly Warriors died in battle, where are the real Heavenly Warriors and Guardian Gods now? However, the current Guardian Gods are slightly better because they inherited the legacy of the Ancient Guardian Gods, so they’re considered a continuation of the Ancient Guardian Gods."

"Whereas today’s Heavenly War Alliance, is completely a joke, with no relation whatsoever to the former Heavenly War Alliance, just a group of Human Clan members who created this so-called Heavenly War Alliance for their own purposes. Simply put, they use the name of the Heavenly War Alliance to deceive others. Many worlds that don’t understand join the Heavenly War Alliance, only to find that this alliance is not what they imagined and it’s already impossible to withdraw. The former Heavenly War Alliance protected the Human Clan, but today’s Heavenly War Alliance is no better than the Guardian Gods, their exploitation of other worlds is even more severe. Those in the Heavenly War Alliance, to gain more benefits, have extinguished worlds no fewer than the Guardian Gods!"
