Simulation of the Heavens: Starting from the Age of Desolation

Chapter 122 The Divine Court's Myriad Flowers Banquet: The Mother Ancestor Cult's Lair
In the blink of an eye, forty years have passed.

The temple at the highest point of the Bloodblade Divine Court was shrouded in mist.

One after another, figures with vast auras flew over, cutting through the sky. These were the powerful figures invited by the Blood Blade Divine Court. These powerful figures were roughly divided into two categories: those belonging to the Blood Blade Divine Court and those who were idle.

"Haha, long time no see."

"Old man, I didn't expect you to be here too?"

"."

The powerful beings greeted each other. As beings who transcended the universe, most of them had good relationships. Of course, even if they had grudges, no one would vent them at the Blood Blade Divine Court's Myriad Flower Banquet.

"There are quite a few rulers attending this banquet."

Soon, powerful beings noticed the top of the temple, where, according to past rules, the rulers usually sat.

But at this moment, there were six seats there. Doesn't that mean that six rulers are coming?
"Since the Divine Court's Myriad Flowers Banquet began, we have never heard of so many Sovereigns coming to show their support." Many powerful figures were secretly astonished.

Is it because Blood Blade God Emperor's influence has grown again, or is there another reason?
There are only eight rulers in the abyss of the gods. If six of them come, doesn't that mean that all the rulers except for the Time-Space Island Lord and the Pantheon Lord have come?
soon.

Wow! Wow! Wow!
One after another, figures with vast and powerful auras appeared on the seats high above.

"Blood Lord, Abyss Lord, and Lady Qianhe." Many powerful figures were not surprised to see these three, as they were regulars at the Myriad Flowers Banquet.

"As expected, Master Yuan Chu has arrived."

"There's one more... What? It's not the Lord of Purgatory!"

"It's the Flame Lord."

At this moment, many powerful people felt incredulous.

"He has become the master."

The powerful beings quickly realized that without becoming a ruler, it was impossible to sit with the rulers. For example, although Pang Yi was very strong and was considered stronger than the Bloodstained Ruler, he still sat in the position of the Three Ancestors, which was slightly lower in rank.

Only the ruler can stand on equal footing with other rulers.

The key point is that Zhou Yu was sitting there at this moment, and his aura was naturally emanating from his body, containing an extremely strong power, which was clearly the aura of a ruler.

The profound system of rules is the cultivation of the inner world and the divine mind.

As one cultivates, the inner world continuously improves, which in turn strengthens the physical body and the energy within. The transformation that led to the transcendence of the World God might be negated by a World God-level secret technique.

However, after becoming the ruler, the inner world underwent another tremendous transformation. The naturally nurtured physical body and energy became difficult to match, requiring extremely powerful techniques to have any hope.

Suitable techniques are rare, and the further you progress in your cultivation, the more precious and scarce the treasures required become, making them not so easy to gather.

Therefore, it is not surprising that a small number of Fourth Heaven Realm Gods are comparable to ordinary powerful beings in terms of strength, but the aura and power of the Sovereign level are beyond the reach of ordinary Venerable level beings.

Just like when Zhou Yu opened up the realm, although he created the powerful physical body technique "Cosmic Body", it was only equivalent to half of the power of the rule mystery system that dominated the physical body.

Unless his array formation can reach the pinnacle of the Opening Realm and create an even stronger "Cosmic Body", it will be quite difficult for his physical body to surpass that of the Dominator.

Of course, for the masters of the mysterious system of rules, the physical body and internal strength are actually secondary; what they are truly powerful is their mastery of the "Tao".

Among the many systems, without cultivating some powerful secret techniques, the physical body and energy dominated by the system of rules and mysteries are almost the weakest. For example, if Zhou Yu's ancient cultivation inheritance "Void Escape" were mastered, his physical body and power would be more than twice as strong as they are now.

If it's the leader of the Mother Ancestor Cult, any leader skilled in physical strength would have physical power several times greater than that of an ordinary ruler.

However, because he has mastered the "Tao," his overall strength as the master of the mysterious system of rules is stronger than that of the leader of the Mother Ancestor Cult. This is the power of the "Tao."

In short, at this moment, both Zhou Yu's seat and the terrifying aura he naturally exuded made the powerful beings realize that he had become the ruler.

"Just who is the Flame Lord? How did he become a ruler?" The powerful beings were filled with shock and secretly discussed among themselves.

At this moment, Zhou Yu glanced around among the many powerful figures and saw some familiar faces, such as the Crimson Fire Ancestor and the Lord of Tongwu Mountain.

Zhou Yu took the initiative to send a telepathic greeting, and the two were flattered.

"Lord of Flamefire, congratulations on becoming a ruler. You have now completely transcended, haven't you? This is a joyous occasion," the Lord of Tongwu Mountain replied.

"I was lucky to break through." Zhou Yu said with a faint smile. But at this moment, his ability to foresee the future suddenly took effect, allowing him to see a scene on the Lord of Tongwu Mountain.

He and several other powerful beings entered a huge, silvery-white water sphere.

"The island in the middle of the lake?"

Zhou Yu understood.

Lake Heart Island is a relic left by a sword master who is even more powerful than the Demon Ancestor. Unlike the secrecy of the Six Paths Heavenly Wheel, Lake Heart Island is completely open to the public. Even the World Gods know about it, and many World Gods of the Fourth Heaven are willing to venture there.

Great beings are frequent visitors to this place.

“Tongwu has cultivated the ‘True Power of Micro-Dimensional Spacetime Destruction’ to the third stage, greatly increasing his strength. It’s normal for him to venture to the island in the middle of the lake.” Zhou Yu didn’t think much of it.

Actually, he also wanted to go to the island in the middle of the lake later.

Although Zhou Yu has now reached the pinnacle of the Destruction Path, he understands that he cannot go very far on this path.

In the simulation, his state of mind was more in line with the path of destruction, which enabled him to open up this path. However, his current state of mind no longer has that destructive intent.

If Zhou Yu were to insist on comprehending it, he might have a chance to cultivate it to a very high level with his talent, but it would be many times more difficult, so Zhou Yu naturally wouldn't waste his effort.

"But reaching the Dominator level in the Path of Destruction is still very necessary," Zhou Yu thought to himself.

To become a Void God, one must create a system of rules; mastering different Daos will then be much easier.

The island in the middle of the lake was left behind by the Sword Master, whose greatest skill was the Path of Destruction. Zhou Yu felt that the island might be of some help to him.

Zhou Yu didn't think much of it. He quickly started chatting with Blood Blade God Emperor and the others. After all, Zhou Yu had become a ruler, so they naturally addressed each other as equals.

In fact, with Zhou Yu's strength, he could leave the Bloodblade Divine Court at any time and establish a powerful force that stands tall in the God Realm.

But Zhou Yu had no interest in doing that, so he remained in the Bloodblade Divine Court.

"There's a little fellow down there. I sense that he's deeply entangled with Lord Yanhuo. Could he be your disciple?" Master Yuanchu asked with a smile.

"His name is Dongbo Xueying. He is one of my disciples in the mortal world. I'm sending him to the Myriad Flowers Banquet to gain some experience." Zhou Yu nodded with a smile.

"Not bad, very young." Master Yuanchu nodded.

"To have caught the eye of the Primordial Lord, Dongbo Xueying is indeed quite good. Lord Yanhuo has a good eye, being able to discover a genius in the mortal world." Blood Lord also spoke up at this moment.

However, while he praised her outwardly, he didn't take it to heart at all.

Peak God-level? Not even worthy of being called an ant.

Even if it's a first-grade True Intent Transcendent, he doesn't even care about the ordinary ones, since most first-grade True Intent Transcendents are just fourth-level Heavenly Gods.

"Mortals in the mortal world make up the majority of all living beings in the universe, but it is indeed more difficult for them to cultivate," the Primordial Master sighed.

Of the nine rulers of the Abyss of the Gods, Zhou Yu is the only one who came from the mortal world.

But he is most likely not a normal mortal, so he can't really be counted among them. In other words, there is no ruler in the material world.

"."

The rulers didn't pay much attention to Dongbo Xueying. They only chatted briefly because of Zhou Yu. In reality, Dongbo Xueying was not very remarkable at this time, and only Zhou Yu knew about Dongbo Xueying's potential.

The Flower Banquet continues.

Below, the peak-level gods were fighting, each displaying their unique abilities.

The powerful figures above drank and chatted, and before they knew it, more than half the time had passed.

Suddenly, the voice of the Blood Blade God Emperor echoed in Zhou Yu's mind.

"Zhou Yu, I've discovered the Mother Ancestor Cult's hideout." Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu was slightly surprised.

"Found it so quickly?" Zhou Yu asked telepathically.

"The leader of the Mother Ancestor Cult probably didn't expect to be tracked by you. His last stop wasn't far from his lair," Blood Blade God Emperor explained, and Zhou Yu nodded in agreement.

"Blood Blade, what do you plan to do?" Zhou Yu asked again.

"I'd like to hear your opinion," Bloodblade God Emperor said. Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu also tried to activate his "foresight" talent.

With the help of the treasures of the rulers and by maintaining a hundredfold time acceleration within the Blood Blade Divine Court cave, his "Myriad Manifestations of Time" inheritance has reached the Opening Realm level, and his ability to foresee the future has also improved.

"However, since it involves the Mother Ancestor Cult's stronghold and is too far away, it's difficult to see clearly," Zhou Yu thought to himself, and then said to the Blood Blade God Emperor:
"After the Flower Banquet ends, I need to go and observe it up close."

“Alright.” Bloodblade God Emperor nodded naturally. He added, “I have also informed Yuan Chu and Shen Yuan of this news and asked them to keep it a secret.”

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yu nodded without saying anything more.

As long as we don't tell the Blood Lord, there's no problem.

Moreover, since it involves the stronghold of the Mother Ancestor Cult, other rulers also need to contribute.

time flies.

The battle for god-level status below quickly came to an end. Dongbo Xueying performed exceptionally well, which also tempted many powerful figures to consider taking him as a disciple.

However, after the battle ended, they were somewhat surprised to find that Dongbo Xueying walked to the seats where the rulers were, bowed to Zhou Yu, and then sat in the seat specially prepared for him.

"So Dongbo Xueying was already a disciple of the Flame Lord?"

"He's so lucky."

"."

The powerful beings were all amazed, but no one said much.

This Myriad Flowers Banquet isn't without powerful figures who allow their already accepted disciples to hone their skills. For Zhou Yu, as the ruler, and with no news of him leaving the Blood Blade Divine Court, this kind of matter is even more trivial.

At this moment, Dongbo Xueying sat there, somewhat shocked.

He couldn't see clearly when he was fighting below, but now that he's up above, he realizes that his master, Zhou Yu, is sitting with the rulers.

"According to the information I received from the Bloodblade Divine Court, my master's status should be comparable to the Three Ancestors. How come he is sitting with the Bloodblade God Emperor now?" Dongbo Xueying thought to himself with considerable surprise.

At that moment, Zhou Yu's voice also resounded in his mind.

"Snow Eagle, after the Myriad Flowers Banquet, you will stay in the Divine Court to cultivate in seclusion for a period of time. I have already spoken with Blood Blade. Once you break through, I will let you go to his Locking World Tower to learn a unique skill."

Upon hearing this, Dongbo Xueying was startled.

The fact that he directly addressed Bloodblade God Emperor by his name suggests that his master's status is indeed on par with that of Bloodblade God Emperor and his ilk.

"Master, what is the ultimate skill?" Dongbo Xueying asked curiously, as he really didn't know what the ultimate skill was at this moment.

"You'll understand once you learn it. Every extraordinary skill is something that powerful individuals crave," Zhou Yu said with a faint smile.

Upon hearing this, Dongbo Xueying immediately understood the value of the ultimate technique, as it was something that even powerful figures coveted.

"Thank you, Master."

Dongbo Xueying immediately expressed his gratitude, guessing that Zhou Yu must have paid a price to allow him to learn this unique skill.

After all, the ultimate technique belonged to the Blood Blade God Emperor.

In fact, Zhou Yu didn't give anything in return. After all, this was the first time he had asked, so Bloodblade God Emperor naturally had to give him face. If Zhou Yu had many disciples, Bloodblade God Emperor wouldn't have agreed so easily.

The original techniques possessed by the Blood Blade God Emperor were also painstakingly collected by him.

. . .

The Flower Banquet lasted a long time, and it only ended after all the powerful beings had enjoyed themselves to the fullest.

The rulers then took their leave and departed from the Bloodblade Divine Court.

However, the Primordial Master and the Abyss Ruler, who had seemingly left the Bloodblade Divine Court, quickly concealed their own karma and quietly returned to reunite with the Bloodblade God Emperor and Zhou Yu.

The four arrived at that desolate starry sky of the divine realm.

"The Mother Ancestor Cult's lair is right there." Bloodblade God Emperor pointed to a starry sky ten trillion miles away. Everything there seemed normal, but under the reflection of Bloodblade God Emperor's Sovereign Level "Shadow Path," the shadow of a palace could be faintly seen.

“There is indeed a problem,” Master Yuanchu nodded.

“There are some flaws in the space-time continuum,” Zhou Yu added.

The Abyss Overlord frowned slightly. He was not good at investigation and did not find any problems. However, since the Blood Blade God Emperor and the other two said there was a problem, then there must be a problem.

"Zhou Yu, can you see anything else?" Bloodblade God Emperor looked at Zhou Yu, knowing that Zhou Yu should have some kind of investigative ability.

Zhou Yu didn't say much; at this moment, he had already activated his ancient cultivation talent.

Wow! Wow! Wow!
A series of images appeared before Zhou Yu.

In the scene, the four of them charged towards the Mother Ancestor Cult's lair, instantly triggering countless magic arrays. At the same time, two figures with vast auras rushed out and fought with the four of them.

Although these two were no match for them, the magic array helped them stall for a long time.

Until a terrifying flying ship suddenly appeared and easily took away the three leaders of the Mother Ancestor Cult.

By this point, the image was already quite blurry, and Zhou Yu was only able to piece together many of the facts thanks to his understanding of the Mother Ancestor Cult.

He knew that the Mother Ancestor Cult possessed a terrifying "Sacred Boat of the Wood," a top-tier treasure even among the Sovereign level.

"This shouldn't be the core stronghold of the Mother Ancestor Cult, but just one of their resource gathering locations," Zhou Yu said.
"Within this place are three leaders of the Mother Ancestor Cult: one is skilled in manipulating magic arrays, and the other two are skilled in direct combat."

As Zhou Yu spoke, the Blood Blade God Emperor was utterly shocked, while the Primordial Master and the Abyss Ruler exchanged bewildered glances.

"Flamefire, you can detect so much information?" the Primordial Master couldn't help but ask.

"You even know the number of magic arrays set up here and the number of Mother Ancestor Cult leaders. How come you seem to have been to this Mother Ancestor Cult's lair before?"

“What I’m saying may not be entirely correct, but it’s probably about 80% accurate,” Zhou Yu said. “In short, a direct attack is bound to fail; we need to think of other ways.”

"What if more rulers join forces?" Bloodblade God Emperor asked Zhou Yu.

"That's hard to say." Zhou Yu didn't say more.

Upon hearing this, the three fell into deep thought.

Soon, Bloodblade God Emperor said:
“Yuan Chu, Shen Yuan, you should know that Zhou Yu was able to wipe out all the Mother Ancestor Sect protectors within the Six Paths Heavenly Wheel. His detection ability is terrifying. Since Zhou Yu has said so, then we should not launch a direct attack on this place. We need to think of other ways.”

Upon hearing this, both the Primordial Master and the Abyss Ruler nodded.

Although it was a bit outrageous for Zhou Yu to blurt out a large amount of information in one go, he couldn't just spout nonsense about such things, could he?

To reiterate, Zhou Yu is definitely the most trustworthy person when dealing with the Mother Ancestor Cult, as too many Mother Ancestor Cult protectors have died at his hands.

"Go back and think it over. If there's really no other way, we'll gather the other rulers for a full-scale attack," said Bloodblade God Emperor.

"it is good!"

The Primordial Master, the Abyss Ruler, agreed.

Zhou Yu didn't say much at this time. In fact, he had some thoughts at this time, but he was in no hurry to say them. He also needed to make some preparations.

P.S.: There will be another update later.
