Chapter 454: This Heavenly Court Sect is very likely a new Demon Sect

The Xia Di dismissed the eunuchs and palace maids and discussed matters with the five major immortal sects here.

In the huge imperial palace, there were only six people, appearing empty.

"Fellow Daoist Yun, long time no see."

"You are too polite, Palace Master."

"Fellow Daoist Qiu, I heard that you participated in the Hanshui City matter from beginning to end?"

"I survived by luck."

The six exchanged simple pleasantries; only the Abbot of the Hanging Temple did not speak, as he was practicing the Zen of Silence.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, the Xia Di explained the theme of the day: "I believe the five of you already know the general process of the Hanshui City matter. If it weren't for the appearance of an unpredictable figure at the end, I'm afraid the power of the national destiny would have been seized by Great Yu."

Originally, Yun Zhi wanted to convene a righteous path meeting, but after the Xia Di learned about the Hanshui City matter, he took the lead and summoned the five people.

In terms of results, there was no big difference.

The Xia Di's eyes revealed an angry expression. The seizure of the power of the national destiny was a huge matter. The ancestors were afraid they would have to make a move personally to take it back. Once the ancestors made a move, all subsequent plans would be disrupted.

"Old Qiu, you are a personal witness to the Hanshui City matter. Tell us about the process." The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect spoke. He had a rugged figure, and a little bit of tattoos were exposed on his neck, wrists, and ankles, which meant that his whole body was covered in battle patterns, a sign of the great success of the battle pattern cultivation method.

Qiu Jinan had already finished the aftermath work in Hanshui City and came to the imperial palace to discuss matters.

"My going to Hanshui City was purely an accident. I was plotted against by a villain and cursed. I needed to use the power of the national destiny to eliminate the curse, so I went to the nearest Hanshui City to seek the help of the power of the national destiny."

"At that time, Hanshui City was suffering from a ghost infestation, which was caused by Great Yu cultivators, but no one saw it at the time."

"Immediately after, Wu Youdao appeared, using the rule power of the Tribulation Transcendence stage to block the information of Hanshui City and wreak havoc in the city."

"Wu Youdao, that sixth Xia Di?" A woman interrupted Qiu Jinan's statement at the right time. She was the Palace Master of the Moon Laurel Immortal Palace, Luo Hongxia.

"Yes, that's him. He had the appearance of an emperor and even used Dragon-Tiger Qi during the fight. He was very difficult to deal with. Governor Lü and I joined forces to barely fight to a draw."

"Just as the battle was deadlocked, a man wearing a white paper hat appeared. The combat power he displayed was about the same as mine."

"About the same as you?" The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect was slightly surprised. He knew Qiu Jinan's strength. To be on par with Qiu Jinan, the other party could not be an unknown person.

"Although that person never revealed his identity from beginning to end, judging from his moves, he looks very much like someone from the Jiuyou Sect, and the only one in the Jiuyou Sect who can be on par with me is the Sect Master!"

"After the incident, I investigated him and found that his figure has been everywhere in Huangzhou in recent years. He used clone techniques to commit crimes everywhere and was wanted by the Huangzhou government. However, he relied on his brain to commit crimes and didn't show his true cultivation, so the Huangzhou government underestimated his cultivation."

"The three of us joined forces, and just as we were about to defeat Wu Youdao, Venerable Xuan Lei appeared. What was even more desperate was that the Ganshi Sect Master was possessed by Venerable Wu Ji, which meant that Hanshui City faced the threat of three Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators."

"Venerable Wu Ji even used the identity of the Ganshi Sect Master and the Huangzhou Seal to temporarily strip Governor Lü of his control over the power of the national destiny."

"Just as I was preparing to resist to the death, a female cultivator appeared, her strength unknown, her true body unknown. She called herself the Supreme Great Heavenly Venerable of the Heavenly Court Sect—Dou Tianzun. Relying on the ownerless power of the national destiny, she defeated Wu Youdao and the other two in a crushing manner, one against three!"

"It's a pity that Wu Youdao and the other two still escaped in the end."

Although he had heard Governor Lü report the process of the matter long ago, hearing Qiu Jinan express it again, the Xia Di was still very surprised.

To be able to crush three people one against three meant that Dou Tianzun's true realm was far higher than Wu Youdao and the other two.

At the very least, she was a half-immortal!

"What kind of force is this Heavenly Court Sect? Why have I never heard of it?" The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect asked the question everyone wanted to ask.

Everyone racked their brains, but only remembered that there were descriptions of "Heavenly Court" in ancient classics, but there were too many versions of the description of "Heavenly Court," and the historical community had always found it difficult to define whether the Heavenly Court existed.

What was the relationship between the Ancient Heavenly Court and the Heavenly Court Sect?

"I have never heard of it either. Judging from the reactions of Wu Youdao and the other two, they haven't heard of the Heavenly Court Sect either."

"However, judging from the reaction of the Jiuyou Sect Master beside me, he should know of the existence of the Heavenly Court Sect."

"When he saw Dou Tianzun appear, he was also very surprised, but more of it was surprise and joy. Later, he also told me that Dou Tianzun is an unspeakable great figure who can play with stars like beans."

"Playing with stars, is Dou Tianzun an ancient figure?" The Xia Di tapped the table rhythmically.

Everyone present was a high-level power in the cultivation world, and nothing was a secret in their eyes. They all knew that the stars in the sky had disappeared, replaced by Yun Zhi's Golden Core.

In other words, in the current cultivation world, no one could play with stars like beans.

Dou Tianzun could only be an ancient figure.

Since the appearance of cultivators from the Great Yu and Great Gan dynasties, even older ancient cultivators had appeared, and they were ancient great powers.

It's just that I don't know which ancient mighty figure this is; even if too much ancient history has been lost, the honorable name of a cultivator of this level wouldn't be forgotten!

"More and more forces are participating in this struggle for the great era." The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect sighed.

Qiu Jinan nodded: "I think so too. I suspect that this Heavenly Court Sect is related to the Ancient Heavenly Court. There are many versions of the Ancient Heavenly Court, but there is one thing that has not changed, and that is that the Heavenly Court was the ruler of the ancient period!"

He was knowledgeable and especially familiar with ancient knowledge. He boldly assumed and carefully verified: "Then further deduction, the purpose of the Heavenly Court Sect may be to restore the rule of the Ancient Heavenly Court, which explains why Dou Tianzun wanted to make a move against Wu Youdao. Their interests conflict."

Luo Hongxia followed Qiu Jinan's words and analyzed: "The Jiuyou Sect Master knows Dou Tianzun of the Heavenly Court Sect, which shows that there is a connection between the two sects!"

The Sect Master of the Prison-Suppressing Sect also grasped the clue to analyze the Heavenly Court Sect: "The Heavenly Court Sect has a figure like Dou Tianzun, so it must be extremely powerful, and we know nothing about their existence, which means that the Heavenly Court Sect has always been acting in the dark, until this time, when it appeared for the first time and declared its existence to the world with absolute strength!"

The Abbot of the Hanging Temple also wanted to speak, but he was practicing the Zen of Silence and couldn't speak. The Xia Di spoke the conclusion for him:

"This Heavenly Court Sect is very likely a new Demon Sect. Originally, the Decayed Sect was destroyed, and only three of the four major Demon Sects remained. Now, if we add the Heavenly Court Sect, then it is still the four major Demon Sects!"

Everyone nodded in unison, recognizing the Xia Di's conclusion.

At this time, Qiu Jinan noticed Yun Zhi, who had been silent all along, and asked: "Fellow Daoist Yun, you are knowledgeable and have the highest cultivation among us. What is your opinion on the Heavenly Court Sect?"

Yun Zhi scanned the crowd and said calmly: "I am the Sect Master of the Heavenly Court Sect."

The second update will be before eleven o'clock.
