Chapter 1727: Matters Concerning the Temple
is to see how much you know about our technique to suppress demons, so we'll send you to a place full of evil demons,” said the old palace lord and paused, continuing, “However, before that, you need...Chapter 1727 - The Temple Incident
The dragon scales sighed when hearing about the events that had transpired in the Nine Heavens World. It seemed he was considering returning, as many of his old friends were there and only a few like him had entered the God Realm.
"Old Green Worm, where's the great lion He should have gone to the God Realm too!" Long Xiying asked.
"He's quite lucky, he escaped after suffering serious injuries. However, it won't be long before his hot temper causes trouble again. I'm not sure how he's doing now," said the Dragon Scales with a helpless smile, hoping that his experience might help him change his volatile nature.
Long Xiying pouted while looking at the roasted animal meat on the fire, murmuring softly, "I really want to save Old Ice and it pains me that he has to endure being someone's mount every day."
The Dragon Scales sighed, "I feel the same. Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do about it as they are too powerful for us to handle now."
Shen Xiang spoke, "Since Heavenly Wealth is in a position of power in the God Realm and has many powerful gods as friends, even if we don't try to deal with Heavenly Wealth himself, his group of disciples alone is enough to cause headaches."
Long Xiying leaned against Shen Xiang's shoulder. She knew that the gods were powerful, but she was still full of hope, "Bad Boy, you must be more disciplined in the future and help me rescue Old Ice."
"Of course, as long as you give me time, I'll definitely do it!" Shen Xiang gently stroked Long Xiying's face and smiled with confidence.
The Dragon Scales nodded in amusement, he could tell that the relationship between Shen Xiang and Long Xiying was more than just friends.
"Senior Dragon Scales, there's something I want to ask you. You might have heard about it in the God Realm!" Shen Xiang told the Dragon Scales about the mortal world's temple where he was born, his father still guarding it.
"This tomb is very mysterious indeed; I've heard of it for a long time. A young eagle from the Ancient Beast Area once guarded this tomb, then entered the God Realm. I came here and inquired about it," said the Dragon Scales, recalling the events from his past. Many mysteries still remained unsolved in the Nine Heavens World back then.
"Who is this god Was the Heaven-forging technique brought by him" Long Xiying asked, "The big white cat saw a godhood when he was in the Cold and Ancient Area. He obtained the Heaven-killing technique and Heaven-forging technique from it, and then Big Lion improved his skills with these techniques to become the Ten Heaven Emperor. When the big white cat shared the Heaven-killing technique, it led to many divine techniques. Could this god be from the temple"
"The big white cat and Big Lion both improved their skills, yet the godhood was not revealed. I don't know about this god," said Dragon Scales, "When the Heaven war occurred in the Cold and Ancient Area back then, causing ice and snow to cover it ever since. No one has entered the deeper part of it yet, there must be something hidden inside! The god in that temple might indeed belong to the boundaries of each temple's restrictions, and people cannot mention him."
This made Shen Xiang and Long Xiying more curious. The god in that temple had a greater background than they'd imagined, as they originally thought it might just be an ordinary god.
"Tell me about the temples in the God Realm," Shen Xiang asked, "Are they all powerful"
"There are only three hundred temples in the God Realm, with many gods scattered among them. Only a few are well-known like the Temple of Wealth, Fire God Temple, Thunder God Temple… and the Demon God Temple, which is the temple of Hell's Demon Emperor. These are powerful temples. Most others are subsidiary to those major temples," said Dragon Scales.
"Is there a dragon god temple" Long Xiying asked.
"Some might exist, but currently there isn't one. I planned to establish it, gathering all dragons from the God Realm together, but due to Old Ice, we ended up here."
"Afterward, I'll build one," said Long Xiying with a smile, "Then I'll be the Dragon God."
"Building temples isn't easy. Since there are only three hundred of them, if you want your temple to be recognized by the gods, there are two methods. One is to buy a temple with divine coins and change it into your own, the other method is to corrupt gods in the temples of gods and get their approval for you to establish the third hundred temple," said Dragon Scales.
"Humph, neither of those methods interest me, I won't get their permission and will beat them up if they dare to cause trouble," said Long Xiying, completely unconcerned.
Shen Xiang asked, "What are the temples of gods"
"Temples of gods are created by three hundred gods cooperating. They gather together every once in a while, or when there's something important to discuss! The god of punishment who governs the temples now is like maintaining order in the God Realm. Major power temples need rules to operate. Otherwise, the God Realm would be chaotic," explained Dragon Scales.
"But if the god of punishment wants to do something, can't he just do it" asked Long Xiying.
"Not exactly, the god of punishment is also subject to rules. For small matters, other gods wouldn't intervene, but if it's a major matter, the god of punishment can't make decisions alone. Otherwise, he would be sealed in hell by other gods," said Dragon Scales.
"In the God Realm, gods from major temples are roughly equal in strength. When they fight alone, it's hard to determine who's stronger. As long as there are no conflicts among them, they generally don't fight. It's said that many years have passed without any fights. The last time was when many gods were killed in the Cold and Ancient Area," said Dragon Scales. "However, if one god is surrounded by others and attacked, the only fate awaiting him would be to descend into hell."
A group of gods were killed in the Cold and Ancient Area, and now there's still a very powerful god waiting to be revived in this mortal world. This made Shen Xiang somewhat worried, if that god caused trouble again in the Nine Heavens World, wouldn't it trigger a large disturbance
Deciding to visit the God Realm before anything else, Shen Xiang planned to check out both the temple where he was born and the deeper part of Cold and Ancient Area.
"Senior Dragon Scales, how much do you know about Empress Devil She's already appeared," Shen Xiang really wanted to learn more about Empress Devil since she was considered a huge threat that needed to be eliminated as soon as possible.
"This woman is very dangerous and scary! Furthermore, she cultivates techniques from the forbidden evil techniques in the God Realm," Dragon Scales' face changed, "Back then, she caused chaos among many strong cultivators by spreading confusion and causing them to attack Qi Shi. This led the Nine Heavens World into destruction, as many lives were lost due to her allure. She's a woman who brings disasters. I suspect she has a very close relationship with Hell Demon Emperor, and when she reappears, her strength will definitely be stronger!"
"Senior Dragon Scales, I really want to go back and stop her as soon as possible!" said Long Xiying.
"Otherwise, we'd never know what kind of trouble she might cause," agreed Shen Xiang.
"Right, Old Green Worm. How do you know how to improve soul strength quickly in the God Realm" asked Long Xiying, concerned that Cao Meng'er and Xue Xiaoxian inside the Spirit Pendant of Yao Yu hadn't yet cultivated divine souls, they were anxious. Judging from their current situation, they'd probably be here for a while.
"Of course, the Dragon Clan specializes in cultivating spirits, it's only natural that I'd find ways to improve soul strength quickly after being here for so long," said Dragon Scales with a chuckle.
With Dragon Scales around, Shen Xiang and company felt very safe. Therefore, Long Xiying let Xue Xiaoxian and Cao Meng'er take a break from their tasks, come out of the Spirit Pendant of Yao Yu, and do nothing for the time being. it be that when anyone enters the Life Tree Grove and is discovered by this fellow, everything would be stripped bare" A hint of anger appeared on Shen Xiang's face. No wonder Eastern Moonnight was s...
