Chapter 394 The Capital of the Heavenly Emperor - Nine Heavens (33)

The capital of the Heavenly Emperor, the Supreme Emperor Huang Zengtian.

sizzle...

Accompanied by a shattered spacetime rift.

Li Boyang, along with Xi Luo and Qingniao, successfully entered the true capital of the Heavenly Emperor.

It must be clarified here that although the Heavenly Emperor's Capital is called a "capital city", it actually has nothing to do with a capital city.

In fact, the entire Heavenly Emperor's Capital is a cycle composed of nine secret realms, hence it is also known as the "Nine Heavens".

This Supreme Emperor Huangzeng Heaven is the first heaven of the Heavenly Emperor's capital—the boundary between humans and gods.

Tens of thousands of years ago, during the most prosperous period of the Heavenly Emperor Haojun, He established rules that both gods and mortals had to abide by.

And the "Nine Heavens" of the Heavenly Emperor's capital are the concrete manifestation of these rules.

The first heaven—the Taihuang Huangzeng Heaven—is the celestial realm closest to the human world.

It is connected to Kunlun on the earth, symbolizing the majesty of the Haojun, and was also the place where all living beings climbed the ladder to heaven to pray for blessings.

The second heaven—the Taiming Yuwan Heaven—symbolizes light and purity.

It is the material manifestation of Haojun's power, influencing and even controlling the trends of sunrise and sunset.

The third heaven—Qingming Hetongtian—symbolizes the clarity and order of all things.

The gods who submitted to Haojun reside here, governing the heavens and earth and all things, and the workings of nature.

The fourth heaven—the Heaven of Mysterious Embryo and Peaceful Development—is the place where life is conceived and evolved.

In various myths and legends, this place is where Haojun cultivated the immortal herb, and it is also the birthplace of the Heavenly Emperor's children.

The fifth heaven—Yuanming Wenju Heaven—emphasizes civilization and wisdom.

Only those celestial beings who have earned the deep trust of Haojun are qualified to reside here and work with Haojun to establish the rules governing the operation of heaven and earth.

The sixth heaven—the Seven Luminaries of Moyi Heaven—refers to the seven major celestial bodies: the Sun, the Moon, Venus, Jupiter, Mercury, Mars, and Saturn.

This celestial body is the central hub of celestial movement, governing the laws of the heavens and influencing the movement of the stars throughout the celestial sphere.

The seventh heaven—the Void Transcendent Heaven—is a celestial realm that transcends the material form.

Even the mighty gods can only descend to the world by astral projection; it is the place where the Heavenly Emperor Haojun summons the gods.

The eighth heaven—the Taiji Mengyi Heaven—contains primordial, undeveloped energy.

Different versions of the myth have different meanings, but without exception they all describe its essence as the origin of the world and the end of all things.

The ninth heaven—the Crimson Brightness and the Yang Heaven—is the highest heaven, symbolizing ultimate light and harmony.

This is the residence of Haojun, and also the most mysterious and unpredictable highest heaven among the Nine Heavens.

Even now, with the collapse of the Nine Heavens and the transformation of the Heavenly Emperor's capital into the ruins of Kunlun, this legendary Supreme Heaven has not yet revealed itself to the world.

"In the myths of the past, this was the first heaven of the capital of the Heavenly Emperor."

“Strong individuals in the mortal realm can climb the ‘Stairway to Godhood’ on Mount Kunlun to come to this world and pray for the blessings of the Heavenly Emperor.”

Gazing at the ruins that had been reduced to rubble, the bluebird, who had already done its homework, murmured.

"It is said that the Heavenly Emperor greatly admires those strong individuals who possess sufficient willpower and conviction."

"Therefore, their requests are basically met unconditionally."

“Some powerful beings whose strength rivals that of gods have the opportunity to become incarnations of the Heavenly Emperor and tour the human world on His behalf.”

At this point, the bluebird suddenly stopped.

"Huh? Why did you stop talking?"

Turning her head to look at the bluebird on her shoulder, Xi Luo asked with a curious expression.

She was very interested in myths from tens of thousands of years ago, especially when she heard about the actions of the Heavenly Emperor when he ruled the world.

Xi Luo would always unconsciously compare what she did with what Li Boyang did.

The final conclusion was that the Heavenly Emperor was inferior to Li Boyang.

At the very least, in terms of bestowing grace upon the world and spreading the teachings to all beings, the Heavenly Emperor was far inferior to Li Boyang.

The Heavenly Emperor is the undisputed ruler, and all His actions are aimed at consolidating His prestige and rule.

Take, for example, the Nine Heavens of the Heavenly Emperor's Capital.

Xi Luo simply couldn't imagine how much divine power He had used to construct such a mysterious and unpredictable secret realm.

In contrast, Li Boyang sees himself more as a guide.

— To guide all beings from ignorance to wisdom, and to guide the divine from barbarism to civilization.

Li Boyang never engaged in large-scale construction projects or levied exorbitant taxes for personal gain.

On the contrary, in the process of managing the mountains in Baidi, Li Boyang always took the lead and did everything himself.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Bai Di Mountains have achieved their current miraculous rise.

Leading the world in both material and spiritual realms, Li Boyang's hands-on exemplary role is absolutely indispensable.

"Based on my grandmother's description, I originally thought that the Heavenly Capital was incredibly magnificent."

"Even after the collapse, it will surely be a magnificent spectacle."

"But now it seems that this capital of the Heavenly Emperor is nothing special."

Under Xi Luo's slightly surprised gaze, Qingniao said with obvious disappointment and regret.

“Look at these ruins and relics, they were just carved and built from taller trees and rocks.”

“Look at those roads again, they were just forcibly flattened and straightened by brute force.”

"Not to mention compared to the current Hundred Mountains, even compared to Changyang Mountain City, this place is far inferior."

It must be admitted that ever since learning that she was the last descendant of the Heavenly Emperor, Qingniao had developed a kind of idealized, almost magical, view of the father god she had never met.

Unfortunately, what I'm witnessing now shattered that illusion for the bluebird.

If even Xi Luo can understand this, how could Qing Niao, who has witnessed the development of the Hundred Mountains to this day, not understand it?

"That's not entirely true. The Heavenly Emperor's Capital does have some merits."

Just then, Li Boyang, who had been carefully observing the ruins, spoke up.

"Look there, that should be the ruins formed after the fifth heaven fell."

Looking in the direction Li Boyang was pointing.

Xi Luo and Qing Niao saw the shattered ruins of a city.

But unlike ordinary cities, that city was constructed entirely of white jade.

Even after tens of thousands of years, the remains of those white jade pieces still shine brightly, giving people an exceptionally mysterious feeling.

“That place was originally the dwelling place of the gods, a white jade forged from the essence of heaven and earth.”

"Don't be fooled by their jade-like appearance and think they're just ordinary white jade."

Li Boyang smiled and said, looking at Qingniao with a puzzled expression.

"Although I don't know how Hao Jun did it..."

“But those white jades are crystallizations of the essence of the sun and moon, and are the materialized primordial energy of heaven and earth.”

"If I remember correctly, various myths and legends have depicted this city soaring in the sky."
