Chapter 746: The Seven Taigu Monarchs

Of the Six Realms of the Divine Tomb, only the Heaven Realm and the Human Realm have close connections.

Unless one is an Against Heaven Realm powerhouse, or passes through a special channel, the various realms are not connected to one another; this has resulted in each realm having its own unique method of cultivation.

For example, the Fifth Realm has its own internal energy, which not only reduces consumption but can also devour an opponent's energy for one's own use.

This unique method of cultivation has great reference value.

At this moment, someone came to report that Qian Long requested an audience.

Yin Qi was surprised and nodded.

Soon, Qian Long strode in, followed by an old man with a somewhat flustered expression.

Yin Qi did not treat this brother-in-law of his poorly.

Not only was he appointed as the Hall Master of the Martial Hall, but he was also gifted a large amount of cultivation resources, including Eleventh-Tier Evolution Fluid; it was just that, looking at it now, Qian Long had not yet used it, likely wanting to wait until he was on the verge of a breakthrough.

It was different from the original work.

In the original work, he was forced to eat seven companions and became a "Death God," but because of the Teleportation Array bestowed by Yin Qi, only Qian Long was left in the Death Forbidden Land and took the Demon Lord as his master.

Although he also endured various cruel trials, his character had not yet been twisted.

Qian Long bowed and said, "Human Emperor, I once studied at Piaomiao Peak. This is the Grand Elder of my Piaomiao Peak. We have come this time to report an urgent matter concerning the safety of the Imperial Court."

"Oh, what is it?"

Yin Qi's heart stirred; he knew that the Seven Taigu Monarchs were likely about to break their seals.

In the current world, only he could reinforce the seals.

The Grand Elder of Piaomiao Peak bowed and said, "Greetings, Human Emperor. It is like this: my Piaomiao Peak is located on the East Sea, and we follow our ancestors' orders to guard that place..."

With that, he began to narrate the story.

Simply put, in the Taigu era, seven legendary figures who shook the heavens and the earth were sealed within a God Mountain.

As endless years passed, the seven legendary Taigu powerhouses were not sealed to death; instead, they showed signs of breaking the seals.

The seven massive God Mountains had been refined by them into seven stone pillars.

By now, there were already signs of the seals breaking.

Finally, he bowed deeply again and said, "I, on behalf of Piaomiao Peak, request the Human Emperor to take action and reinforce the seals. Otherwise, once they emerge, I fear they will cause chaos in the Heaven and Human Realms."

Yin Qi only nodded faintly and said, "Do you know their origins, and why they were sealed?"

The Grand Elder of Piaomiao Peak was stunned and shook his head.

Yin Qi said, "Those seven Taigu figures are collectively known as the Seven Taigu Monarchs, and they were the rulers of the Fifth Realm. At the invitation of the Demon Lord, they came to the Human Realm to assist in the battle, annihilating the Blue Heaven, sealing the Yellow Heaven, and after exhausting their strength, they were ambushed and sealed by the Green Heaven."

After the Imperial Court was established, Yin Qi did not hide the secret of the world's destruction.

Of course, it was mostly the major powers that knew.

As for the ordinary people, there was no need for them to know, lest panic lead to chaos.

"Ah!"

Not only Qian Long, but the Grand Elder of Piaomiao Peak was also dumbfounded.

According to what Yin Qi said, wasn't their Piaomiao Peak working for the Green Heaven!

The Grand Elder of Piaomiao Peak hurriedly said, "Human Emperor, please understand, we only follow the orders of our ancestors; we are absolutely not the lackeys of the Green Heaven."

Yin Qi waved his hand: "I know, your ancestors were just deceived by the Green Heaven. Counting it up, the Seven Taigu Monarchs also belong to the friendly forces, so I have decided to release them and let them return to the Fifth Realm."

The Great Destruction is coming.

Releasing the Seven Taigu Monarchs will allow them to recover their strength as soon as possible and participate in the war to fell Heaven.

The Grand Elder of Piaomiao Peak naturally had no objections.

………

In terms of territory, the Human Realm is actually no smaller than the Heaven Realm. However, over ninety percent of the Human Realm is ocean, and only a small piece in the center is the Tianyuan Continent.

Piaomiao Peak is located in the depths of the East Sea and consists of seven islands arranged in the shape of the Big Dipper.

In the center of each island is a Heavenly Pillar, beneath which the Seven Taigu Monarchs are suppressed, namely the eldest Chu Xiangyu, the second Hei Qi, Songzan Debu, Ni Zhong, Ali De, and the others.

The seven Heavenly Pillars have existed for who knows how many years; on them are traces of lightning strikes and marks of blades and axes.

Yet they still stand tall, engraved with the frost of time, as if they had existed there since the primordial era.

Beside the seven islands, there is another small island.

This small island is where Piaomiao Peak is located, with hundreds of flowers blooming and colors so vibrant that, viewed from afar, it looks like a magnificent painting. It is breathtakingly beautiful.

……

Piaomiao Hall.

Yin Qi sat in the main seat, with the various ancestors of Piaomiao Peak lined up on both sides.

Yin Qi said: "Have all the disciples withdrawn?"

Please... you.... bookmark 6... 9... book....!

The Sect Leader of Piaomiao Peak hurriedly said: "Reporting to the Human Emperor, the disciples have all withdrawn, and only we remain."

Yin Qi nodded: "Hmm, you may all leave later as well. Although I have the confidence to suppress the Seven Taigu Monarchs, once a battle breaks out, you will certainly be caught in the crossfire."

"Yes."

The various high-level members of Piaomiao Peak naturally had no objections, and were even secretly delighted.

Once the Seven Taigu Monarchs are gone in the future, they will no longer need to follow the ancestral teachings and remain trapped on the East Sea.

……

Not long after, the high-level members of Piaomiao Peak tore through the void and disappeared into the horizon.

Yin Qi also arrived at the island corresponding to the Dubhe star.

Beneath the Heavenly Pillar on this island, the eldest of the Seven Taigu Monarchs, Chu Xiangyu, was suppressed.

During the Taigu war, Chu Xiangyu and the others had crossed realms at the invitation of the Demon Lord.

Originally, they had prepared to join forces with the Demon Lord to slay Heaven, but because the Demon Lord could not come at the last minute, they were forced to act alone. In the end, Heaven was slain, but they were also schemed against and sealed here by Qing.

Come to think of it, they were also played by the Demon Lord.

Yin Qi stood in mid-air, his hands clasped behind his back.

A green mist permeated his eyes, allowing him to see through the void and straight into the depths of the earth, where he saw Chu Xiangyu.

Although the name Chu Xiangyu sounded somewhat feminine, he was a robust man standing one zhang and five feet tall; his entire body looked as if it had been cast from black iron, shimmering with a terrifying, dark luster.

Chu Xiangyu sat cross-legged, and upon sensing Yin Qi's gaze, he suddenly opened his eyes, which projected a terrifying divine radiance.

Subsequently, a thought arrived through the air: "Who are you, and where is the Demon Lord?"

The language of the Fifth Realm was not the same as that of the Human Realm, so the two sides could only communicate through thoughts.

Yin Qi smiled slightly: "Let me introduce myself. My name is Yin Qi, and I am the current Human Emperor of the Tianren Liangjie. As for the Demon Lord, some time ago he joined forces with Dugu Baitian to use great divine abilities to exile many Heavenly Tier experts to the Third Realm, and they entered it themselves as well."

Chu Xiangyu's pupils constricted slightly, and then he said: "When there are no tigers in the mountains, monkeys claim to be the Great King. I was wondering how the Human Realm, as a cradle for experts, could possibly produce a Human Emperor."

"Then what is the purpose of your visit? To reinforce the seal and continue to keep us imprisoned?"

"Also, I am very curious as to how you managed to avoid the Demon Lord?"

Yin Qi had concealed his aura; although Chu Xiangyu could not see through Yin Qi's cultivation, he did not take Yin Qi seriously.

At most, this was just an up-and-comer.

Now that they were on the verge of breaking the seal, even if Yin Qi reinforced it, he likely would not be able to hold them for long.

Once they broke the seal, killing Yin Qi would be as easy as slaughtering a pig or a dog. (End of chapter)
