Peerless Dragon Sovereign

Chapter 724 724: The Role of the Cyan Demon

"The invincible senior brother of the Endless Sky Sword Sect suddenly went mad, under his sword dominion, the supreme power of the lower realms was destroyed and annihilated; with a single sword, he split the two realms that were originally one, then disappeared without a trace."

"Although the two realms were divided, the Celestial Crossing Realm is not even a tenth of the Heavenly Balance Realm. Because of its vast territory, the division of the two realms did not cause much upheaval in the Heavenly Balance Realm."

"But the relatively small Celestial Crossing Realm was different; surrounded by the Sea of Suffering, with blast after blast of fierce wind, the four phenomena changed wildly, and the entire sky shattered into the most primitive void holes."

"If left unchecked, the Celestial Crossing Realm will inevitably be devoured by the chaotic forces, and by then, there will no longer be a Celestial Crossing Realm in the lower realms."

Chu Nan frowned. He didn't expect that Kui Guang's splitting of the two realms in the past would cause such a severe chain reaction.

Kui Guang once said he went mad and destroyed the Endless Sky Sword Sect and split the two realms because he was ambushed by his junior brother during cultivation, which drove him mad.

But he did not expect that after the two realms split, it would make the world even more perilous.

"So, the reason you allied with the Cyan Demon was to quell the chaos?"

Tian Xuan bowed his head but then shook it.

"The split of the two realms threw the heavenly principles into chaos. It can only be calmed by using the True Spirit born from heaven and earth as the core to create a grand array."

"Thus, the four monsters born of heaven and earth are the best choice."

"But Black Slaughter kills, Purple Spirit is weak, Red Ghost is unstable, only Cyan Demon likes to guard his own territory without moving even an inch for a million years as long as no one invades."

"So when those powerhouses who were forcibly left in the Celestial Crossing Realm proposed the idea to Cyan Demon, he naturally agreed."

"We created the array with Cyan Demon as the core, and the power of heaven and earth within Cyan Demon merges into the Celestial Crossing Realm through the array for reconciliation, gradually allowing the Celestial Crossing Realm to return to normal."

"Those powerhouses can also become array hubs, sleeping in the array center, and awakening at the right time to avoid the consumption of their lifespan."

Chu Nan frowned again. He didn't expect such hidden secrets behind this matter, but he still replied disdainfully, "But because of this, martial artists now can't even break through to the Unity Realm."

Facing Chu Nan's anger, Tian Xuan explained, "Cyan Demon uses his own power to moderate the world, so we have to pay some price and make some compromises."

"Our compromise is that Cyan Demon can use the array to suppress the cultivation and strength of martial artists from the Human Race so that the Celestial Crossing Realm always remains his personal domain."

"Regarding this, those powerhouses also considered deeply."

"Though Cyan Demon is strong, he is merely in the Void Realm, far outmatched by Heavenless Realm martial artists. Even if he leaves the entire Celestial Crossing Realm without a single Unity Realm, it doesn't matter."

"As the aura of the Celestial Crossing Realm is sorted out by Cyan Demon, powerhouses will gradually awaken, among them terrifying beings of the Heavenless Realm."

"The grand array cannot suppress the existence of Heavenless Realm. As long as the Heavenless Realm powerhouses awaken, normalcy can be restored!"

Tian Xuan spoke with extreme confidence, everything was under their control.

Cyan Demon, though possessing immortality, his cultivation is merely in the Void Realm, even a slightly powerful Heavenless Realm could kill him,

not fearing Cyan Demon's terrifying power at all.

Once they awaken, Cyan Demon will thoroughly become history.

Tian Xuan's awakening was just a signal, representing that the Celestial Crossing Realm was gradually reducing its reliance on Cyan Demon's regulation of chaotic heavenly power.

When the world steadies, those sleeping self-sealed powerhouses will awaken, bringing earth-shaking changes to the Celestial Crossing Realm that has been peaceful for ten thousand years.

All the power structures will be reshuffled as those powerhouses awaken one after another.

And now Chu Nan could not face this power. After learning everything, his expression grew solemn.

Who could have thought the truth would turn out to be like this?

Once, Chu Nan had wondered, after the realms split, where did those martial artists above the Cloud Sea Realm forced to stay in the Celestial Crossing Realm go?

It seemed like they just vanished after the split, as if they never existed.

Turns out they didn't die, nor did they leave, but used their methods to plot the future, waiting for the right time to awaken and regain control of this land.

Once they awaken, no Qin Kingdom nor Royal Family nor Strong Race, not even the Cyan Demon, would be anything but ants.

Chu Nan's desire to become stronger grew unprecedentedly intense at this moment.

Although he didn't completely believe Tian Xuan's words, he thought they wouldn't deviate much, at least after the split of two realms, those who stayed in the Celestial Crossing Realm didn't die.

They hid themselves, sleeping in some corner, waiting for the right time to extend their hand into the Celestial Crossing Realm once more.

Then, Chu Nan asked another question, "Why did you leave the Ninefold Heaven cultivation method in the Celestial Crossing Realm, and not other strengthening methods of the Cloud Sea?"

The Ninefold Heaven cultivation method is the main cultivation method in the Cloud Sea Realm nowadays. Though it seems strong, it is actually quite average, and true prodigies disdain using such a method to strengthen their power.

Tian Xuan pondered for a moment, then said, "This was a transaction, and under the circumstances back then, it was the only choice."

"The Cloud Sea Realm is an important realm, and a huge watershed that can even determine a martial artist's future achievements."

"In the past, there were numerous methods to strengthen the Cloud Sea, with strange and unpredictable means."

"But comparatively, the Ninefold Heaven cultivation method, though weak, doesn't deviate, and it is the most stable method to strengthen the Cloud Sea, with the least resource consumption."

"Therefore, even in the era before the realms split, cultivators of Ninefold Heaven were the majority. Our Ninefold Heaven Sect could become the most powerful sect under the three sects and six institutes due to the numerical advantage of its strong members."

"When constructing the array covering the entire Celestial Crossing Realm, our Ninefold Sect was the most critical foundation of the array due to our numbers."

"Throughout the Celestial Crossing Realm, there are Secret Realms left by our Ninefold Sect martial artists, naturally passing down the Ninefold Heaven Secret Techniques with the opening of these Secret Realms."

"Meanwhile, other forces will also hide their legacies, which is the price they should pay for our sacrifice."

Chu Nan nodded slightly, combining previous words, such an explanation by Tian Xuan seemed reasonable.

Subsequently, Tian Xuan pondered for a bit and continued, "Of course, the most important reason is that cultivating Ninefold Heaven relatively consumes the least spiritual energy and resources."

"When the power of the world in the Celestial Crossing Realm is completely stable and no longer needs the Cyan Demon, and many powerhouses awaken, the Celestial Crossing Realm will still be a resource-rich cultivation Holy Land."

"Able to sustain the birth of new Heavenless Realm martial artists."

Upon hearing this, Chu Nan sneered, ultimately, the nature of all this is still about considering their own interests.
