Paradise of Demonic Gods

Chapter 1130: Changes

Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

The entire Heavenly Mountain was now surrounded by several ten thousand members of the imperial court’s army.

It was because today was when the Divine Emperor was going to head to the Heavenly Mountain to receive the blessings from the heavens.

However, no one had expected that at this moment when Divine Emperor Zhao Hao reached the pinnacle of his lifetime, he would also encounter the greatest danger of his life while under the protection of a great number of soldiers.

Inside and outside of the hall, several thousand members of the imperial court’s army fell to the ground.

The Imperial Guards, palace guards, and the many worshipped members of royalty were all seriously injured, either collapsed on the ground or dead.

At the deepest part amidst the layers of corpses, Zhao Hao’s face was pale as he dropped to the ground by a corner. He looked at the beautiful lady dressed in palace clothes and said, “I didn’t expect this... I really didn’t expect that even you would be one of them.”

The beautiful lady was donned in a luxurious and dignified dragon robe. She had light makeup on but was already as beautiful as a person who came from a drawing.

The lady was the imperial concubine that Zhao Hao had doted on the most all along—Concubine Shu.

However, Concubine Shu had been a disciple of the higher realm’s Goddess Sect. The reason why she had gotten close to Zhao Hao was so that she could keep him under watch as well as to seek benefits for the Goddess Sect.

Looking at Zhao Hao who was wearing a pale countenance, Concubine Shu said with a cold expression, “Zhao Hao, it’s your blessing to have been served by me for so many years. You have great aptitude and talent to be able to get rid of the rebels and unite the country. You can really be called a great Emperor through the ages.

“It’s also because of this that I was willing to lower myself to be married to you.

“It’s a pity... Of all things to do, you shouldn’t have thought of wanting to make enemies with the higher realm’s immortal sects.”

Zhao Hao’s expression turned ghastly. “How did you guys discover that?”

Just then, the sound of wind rang out, and countless streams of cold light flashed past in the air. Four ladies turned into four streams of sword light, piercing toward Concubine Shu’s body from four different directions.

At the sight of this scene, Zhao Hao appeared shocked, and he sent his martial will scattering out crazily. “No!”

A golden martial will turned into a huge roaring dragon and flashed past, but it was pressed down by Concubine Shu with one hand.

Simultaneously, the four streams of sword light clashed against Concubine Shu like glass clashing against diamond. With a loud explosive bang, the four ladies’ bodies shattered, sending blood and flesh all across the air and then disappearing.

The four of them were the maids that Zhao Hao had carefully nurtured since young. Not only did they have exceptional martial arts, but they had all cultivated to tier one of the Divine level as well. Furthermore, they were also exceptional in espionage, tracking, leading troops, warfare, and many other aspects. They had been tasked with helping him take charge of gathering information from inside and outside, keeping watch over the government officials, supervising the territories. The ladies were his most trusted aides. However, all of them had died by Concubine Shu’s hands.

“To think that these four b*tches were still thinking of saving you... They really don’t know any better.” Concubine Shu let out a snort, sending white light bursting out from her hand. The power of her martial will kept on rising, shattering the huge golden dragon that Zhao Hao had released.

“Zhao Hao, you’re really a great talent. The Son of Heaven’s Dragon Punch that you created even possess a hint of the qualities of the higher realm’s Ascendant Heavenly Sect. You can be considered to be ingenious for thinking of gathering everyone’s powers to go against the higher realm’s immortal sects.

“It’s a pity that you don’t understand how great the difference is between you and the higher realm.”

Concubine Shu slowly walked up to Zhao Hao. At the same time, over ten young ladies dressed in white palace clothes slowly appeared in the surroundings. Everyone of them had the cultivation of tier one of the Divine level.

These were the Goddess Sect’s disciples that killed the soldiers and guards who were on duty.

In the lower realm, those with tier one of the Divine level were already considered rare and were legends in the pugilistic world. They were people who could dominate the world. However, just the Goddess Sect alone could send out over ten of them easily.

Concubine Shu was at tier two of the Divine level, allowing her to win against Zhao Hao.

Concubine Shu stared at Zhao Hao and said, “Your Majesty, this is the last time I’m calling you this. This is your final chance. Give up on the world and join our Goddess Sect. You’ll be able to gain protection then.”

The Goddess Sect had been coveting this great talent that was a rare find in the world and thus wanted to secretly take him in. They would then announce to the world that Zhao Hao had already died while they continued to nurture him in secret. Combining the various restraining techniques they had with Zhao Hao’s potential, he would become another of their trump card after 100 years had passed.

Zhao Hao smiled pathetically and looked at Concubine Shu. “The higher realm wishes to enslave the world, controlling the destinies of everyone in the world. I, Zhao Hao, refuse to comply. You guys were just born a few years earlier than us. You’ve just lived a few years longer than we have. Even if I were given another chance, I’d still resist to the very end.”

A cold gleam flashed in Concubine Shu’s eyes. However, a white light flashed just then, and two young men appeared in the hall.

The young men who appeared in the hall were Fang Xingjian and Urethai.

At the sight of the duo’s abrupt appearance, Concubine Shu became wary. “Who are you? The Goddess Sect has taken over this place. The two of you better not act recklessly.”

Fang Xingjian did not say anything. He merely threw a glance toward Concubine Shu when she disappeared without a trace together with the other ten or more ladies in palace clothes.

He then looked toward Zhao Hao. Zhao Hao felt that this person’s eyes seemed to contain countless pieces of information and profoundness, causing his consciousness to receive endless impacts. Zhao Hao’s consciousness was like a sponge, crazily absorbing the endless streams of information.

There were all sorts of martial techniques and secret manuals, as well as countless technological information and profoundness of the universe.

At this moment, Zhao Hao felt as if he had lived through several thousand or even ten thousand years. By the time he got back to his senses, he had already appeared in the palace’s study. It was as if everything that had just happened was a dream or an illusion.

However, the endless amount of information in his mind told him that they were not illusions.

At the same time, Concubine Shu slowly opened her eyes at the foot of the mountain.

In that instant just a moment ago, she had also felt an endless amount of knowledge and profoundness being channeled into her brain.

“What on earth happened?” Concubine Shu sensed the knowledge that she had obtained, feeling that each piece of information was extremely majestic and profound yet familiar.

At this moment, she had the feeling that her cultivation was being raised incessantly.

...

Urethai frowned and asked, “What did you do?”

Fang Xingjian said calmly, “Zhao Hao already sent a clone into the higher realm’s immortal sect a long time ago. Therefore, even after his body here dies, his clone can still continue to survive in the higher realm. This is an escape route he left for himself.

“It’s even easier for Concubine Shu. As a disciple of the Goddess Sect, there’s nowhere safer than her own sect. Therefore, she left a clone in her sect. Even if her actual body dies, she’d still have a chance.”

Urethai’s gaze turned increasingly puzzled. Zhao Hao was someone who would plan far ahead and Concubine Shu was an extremely wary person, so both of them had left clones in the higher realm. However, what did this matter?

Fang Xingjian continued, “Right now, the connection between the higher realm and lower realm is severed. From the space-time perspective, there is no longer any connection between the two worlds. They can even be called two different universes.

“Therefore, if we wish to locate the higher realm, we can only rely on the people.”
