Chapter 461: Entering the Heavenly Court

The Heavenly King of Guangnan was stunned; what had just happened?

He stared at the head Li Heng was holding in his hand—a head identical to his own—unable to comprehend it. A monster that was still above the Half-step Divine had just been easily dealt with?

Then why had he been shouting for everyone to run away just a moment ago?

Involuntarily, a sense of embarrassment rose in his heart.

Bai Laotou was also somewhat shocked; he realized he had underestimated this fellow Daoist Li Heng. This was more than just having mysterious and unfathomable means; it was simply extremely powerful!

One had to know, the aura that corpse had erupted with just now.

Was enough to touch the boundaries of the Sacred!

The Heavenly King of Guangnan took a deep breath and bowed to Li Heng.

"Fellow Daoist Li, forgive my presumption earlier; I failed to recognize a superior."

He frankly admitted his mistake; to him, if one did wrong, one had to acknowledge it, and if one was beaten, one had to stand straight; he would not evade it.

However, after saying this, he added another sentence.

"Of course, His Majesty is still invincible."

Li Heng could not help but find it amusing upon hearing this. This Heavenly King of Guangnan was indeed a person of true character, but at the same time, he was a fanatical fan of that Immortal God Heavenly Emperor; it was hard for him to judge such a phenomenon.

Not intending to dwell on this matter, he sensed the harvest from slaying this corpse: an astronomical amount of Source Power, and another fifty Golden Source Points credited to his account.

Accumulated like this.

He now had three hundred Golden Source Points!

From this, one could also see that in the Central Great World and the land of the Heavenly Court, it was not that Calamities and monsters did not exist, but that they were all hidden, making it difficult for him to harvest Source Power directly and straightforwardly.

Just like this corpse.

The monster lurking within it had not suddenly awakened because of their arrival, but because this past Heavenly King of Guangnan had appeared, and their energy signatures had connected, which was what disturbed this monster.

A wisp of Sun True Fire emerged.

This corpse and the head instantly vanished into ashes.

Seeing this, the Heavenly King of Guangnan's expression became even more complex.

Watching himself being cremated, how should he put it? It was quite strange.

"This matter is settled; it is time to enter the Heavenly Court."

Li Heng said aloud.

Everyone nodded, and without delay, they slowly walked into the Heavenly Gate, and the surrounding scenery began to blur.

"Fellow Daoist Li, are you really going to head into the depths of the Heavenly Court?"

During the process, the Heavenly King of Guangnan raised his eyebrows.

"Not only that, he also wants to meet His Majesty."

Bai Laotou spoke up to help Li Heng answer.

"I see..." The Heavenly King of Guangnan was thoughtful.

Then he sighed and spoke solemnly.

"Then take me with you as well; I am also quite curious as to why this is, why His Majesty would intercept this segment of the past..."

Li Heng nodded; having pierced through the essence of this place, he could freely travel between the past Heavenly Court and the present Heavenly Court, and taking the Heavenly King of Guangnan with him would not consume much of his energy, and perhaps there might even be unexpected gains.

At this moment, Shaoyang Jun and the Little Golden Dragon were truly stunned and dumbfounded.

What on earth had just happened!

What was this all about!

They could not help but ask, and Bai Laotou kindly answered. After a long while, their dizzy heads finally cleared up a bit, and they revealed expressions of sudden realization.

So it was the distinction between the past and the present?

The Little Golden Dragon could not help but ask out of curiosity.

"Heavenly King of Guangnan, why are you so optimistic? You now know that you will die so miserably in the future, and even your own body and Dao Fruit have been occupied by an inexplicable monster."

The Heavenly King of Guangnan's face darkened upon hearing this.

Hearing the Little Golden Dragon put it that way, he was no longer optimistic.

"Telling you, this little dragon, you wouldn't understand. What does it matter if it's miserable, as long as one can return. Speaking of which, the strength of your True Spirit Body is quite good; you have the style of your father, Qian Hai."

Through the previous introduction.

The Heavenly King of Guangnan had learned of the Little Golden Dragon's background.

"The Heavenly King knows my father?"

The Little Golden Dragon said in surprise.

One had to know that in the past where this Heavenly King of Guangnan resided, his father had not yet risen to power or attained the Half-step Divine, right?

"Heh, do not think of the Half-step Divine so narrowly. Your father is a famous Sacred seed and has long since entered the observation of the higher-ups. Besides, do you think a Half-step Divine like me would have no foresight regarding the great trends of the future?"

The Heavenly King of Guangnan smiled disdainfully and tapped the Little Golden Dragon on the head.

"Foresight my foot; if you could foresee it, you wouldn't have died in battle."

Bai Laotou mocked from the side.

Guangnan looked at his old friend with some annoyance, cursing inwardly that he really knew how to hit a sore spot; it was one thing to bicker with him on ordinary days, but now he was going to be exposed while acting cool in front of the juniors?

Does this old man have no humanity left?

"What does an old man like you know? Those Calamities have mysterious and unfathomable origins; they did not exist in the original ancient history, and neither the Time-Space Mother River nor the Great Void shows any trace of them."

"But they suddenly emerged at the end; who could have predicted that?"

He argued in his defense.

At this time, Li Heng joined the discussion.

"I once heard someone say that the Great Void Calamities were originally endless, so how is it that they do not exist in the Great Void now?"

Li Heng recalled the words of Xuanyang from back then and said in surprise.

"The Great Void is indeed full of endless Calamity; otherwise, where would the Heaven and Earth tribulations experienced in the Creation Realm come from? Therefore, this Calamity is not that Calamity, Fellow Daoist Li should understand."

The Heavenly King of Guangnan frowned and replied.

"I have heard that the Great Void is like a river, divided into upper, middle, and lower reaches; if a Heaven and Earth is located downstream of the river, the more Calamities it encounters, and the more strange and bizarre things it can run into."

"Is this true?"

Li Heng continued to ask.

"The Void is like a river; this is indeed one of the many guesses of the Immortal Gods. Let me guess, did that person tell you that the Calamity might originate from the very end of the downstream of the river?"

Li Heng nodded upon hearing this.

The Heavenly King of Guangnan sighed with emotion.

"It seems the person who told you these guesses is no simple character."

"He is also a person from your Heavenly Court, named Xuanyang."

Li Heng answered frankly.

Old Man Bai and the Heavenly King of Guangnan were greatly shocked upon hearing this; ripples appeared on their faces, but they quickly calmed down and spoke in surprise.

"It is actually him, then it is no wonder."

"That guy is a top-tier Half-step Divine. So how is his condition now? Is he dead or not? You must know that the higher the cultivation, the easier it is to attract Calamity," the Heavenly King of Guangnan said happily.

Li Heng had a strange expression.

Is this really worth being happy about?

Or is there also a grudge between the two?

After thinking for a moment, he spoke frankly.

"His condition is not very good; he is in a certain Heaven and Earth outside the True Realm, neither dead nor alive—theoretically, he is considered alive, right?"

"Ah, this..."

The happy expression of the Heavenly King of Guangnan suddenly collapsed.

Afterwards, he said helplessly.

"I knew that guy could live! Damn it, it is also strange; a person who walks the Great Sun Path of unparalleled ferocity lives longer than some old tortoises—is this reasonable? He was actually able to escape the True Realm under the backdrop of the Calamity invasion!?"

As he spoke, he became increasingly depressed.

Li Heng did not speak, lost in thought.

At this moment, they had already walked out of the Heavenly Gate and truly arrived within the territory of the Heavenly Court. At the same time, the wisp of aura that Xuanyang had given him back then began to resonate with a certain place in the Heavenly Court.

That place.

It seems to be where the object that strengthens the light of the Lighthouse is located!
