Chapter 34: The Birth of the Heavenly Court

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

In his Closed Door Meditation, Minghe tried to comprehend what he learned from the Zixiao Palace teaching. The Magical Tao Mirror had recorded the law of 3,000 Divine Law seeds on the Way of Great Way, yet it was better not to bite off more than one could chew. At present, Minghe had mastered four Divine Laws and any more would just encumber his cultivation.

Lots of masters went back to do meditation just as Minghe had done. Yet there were others who were not in a hurry, like Emperor Jun and the Great One. They went to their headquarters in Untainted Land instead of directly returning to the Solar Star.

Hundreds of masters had also attended the Zixiao Palace teaching together with Emperor Jun and the Great One. Among them were notably the Ten Sacred Demons, who were the most powerful. They were: Ji Meng, Ying Zhao, Fei Dan, Feilian, Jiu Ying, Shang Yang, Bai Ze, Qin Yuan, Ci Tie, and Gui Che.

These ten demons had the highest cultivation, second to Emperor Jun and the Great One. All had reached Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Peak after the teaching, and Emperor Jun and the Great One made great progress and achieved the Early Stage of Sage-to-be, which gained them high prestige among other demons.

In the past, though the Demon Tribe regarded Emperor Jun and the Great One as the Demon Emperor and Royal Demon, for they had powerful treasures and were on par with the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery, but in actual fact, most of them just pretended to obey their orders. After all, they were just Zenith Heaven Golden Immortals.

While it seemed the Demon Tribe was united, the truth was they were in a state of disunity. Besides large numbers of Demon Tribes gathering around their headquarters, there were more Demon Tribes living scattered far and near. Unlike them, the Wu Tribes lived like a circle spreading out, centered by the Hall of Pangu, which overwhelmed the Demon Tribes.

However, it was different now as both Emperor Jun and the Great One made a breakthrough to Sage-to-be cultivation. Moreover, both of them were changed from the Three-Legged Golden Crows and were quite familiar with the Law of Fire. It was these two Divine Laws that they relied on to breakthrough from the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal to Sage-to-be during the teachings.

In addition, Emperor Jun, as the Demon Emperor of the Demon Tribe, also knew the Law of Sovereignty. When he made progress on mastering the Law of Fire, his enlightenment on the Law of Sovereignty also reached the Early Stage of Sage-to-be. What’s more, the two laws complemented each other, which was a power to be reckoned with.

Emperor Jun and the Great One could only be considered as the real Emperors of the Demon Tribe now. Emperor Jun planned to take this opportunity to unify the Demon Tribe in order to form a formidable force on par with the Wu Tribe.

The number of demons in the Demon Tribe was more than ten times that of the Wu Tribe, but many were just minions. In terms of combat power, the former had less than the latter. Moreover, many demons did not join in their cause, such as Fuxi, Godness Nvywa, and Peng Kun of the Northern Underworld. If they joined, the Demon Tribe’s strength would have definitely increased.

In the Demon Tribe’s headquarters, Emperor Jun and the Great One gathered the Ten Sacred Demons and all the Demon Tribe’s tribe chiefs in order to discuss the plan for their future development. Emperor Jun easily gained the upper hand through the breakthrough of Law of Sovereignty and reaching the Sage-to-be Realm.

Emperor Jun was quite satisfied looking at the demons sitting before him. With the pressure from his Sage-to-be aura, primordial power of Law of Sovereignty, and together with help from the Great One, the demons were willing to pledge their allegiance and acknowledge him.

Having achieved the expected effect, he relaxed, and the demons beneath him also felt at ease. Emperor Jun said, "All of you are elites of our Demon Tribe. I call you here to discuss the great plan for our development.

"Though we have hundreds of billions of a population, our overall strength is weak, as we are scattered everywhere, and many masters have not joined us yet. Unlike us, the Wu Tribe are headed by the Twelve Ancestors of Sorcery, while invading our territory bit by bit. In the long run, we will be in danger of extinction of our entire tribe."

Hearing this, all of them became really grim, with the exception of the Great One, who seemed to not care. Unlike Emperor Jun who mastered the Law of Sovereignty that could also be refined by ruling the whole Demon Tribe, The Great One was focused on the Law of Fire and was fond of battles instead of politics. In his opinion, his older brother Emperor Jun was always right.

The atmosphere was a little heavy, so Emperor Jun said, "But, there’s a solution." Hearing that, someone asked immediately, "Your Majesty, do you have any ideas?"

Emperor Jun said, "Firstly, Sacred Demons that have attained enlightenment from the teaching in Zixiao Palace, I hope you can share your enlightenment with others. Currently, cultivation exercises that our tribe uses to cultivate were originally from the Enlightenment Tablets. It was very limited and was evolved by our ancestors to become what it is now.

"Nevertheless, what Hongjun taught this time helps us to complete our cultivation methods. With a completed cultivation exercise, we will be able to nurture master cultivators, thus eliminating the gap between us and the Wu Tribe."

The Sacred Demons thought it was reasonable, as their cultivation methods were truly too messy, and many tribes only had cultivation methods till the Golden Immortal Realm. If anyone managed to cultivate till the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm, the strength of the Demon Tribe would surely increase day by day.

Seeing that all agreed on his first suggestion, Emperor Jun continued to say, "Secondly, we are all scattered, unlike the Wu Tribe, who lives as a group. I hope all of you could cast aside your prejudice and look at the big picture. Thus, we can form a united front to be able to beat the Wu Tribe."

Ji Meng cut in, "Your Majesty, your suggestion is great. But I wonder how all of us can live together, as we are a huge population." What he pointed out was the main point—no wonder that he was regarded as the wise man of the Demon Tribe.

Emperor Jun frowned as Ji Meng had a point. The Wu Tribe occupied nearly half of the Eastern Untainted Land, yet it was impossible for them to find a place where hundreds of billions of the Demon Tribe could live. So they could only give up?

Suddenly, a Mysterious Sign appeared around Mount Buzhou and the heaven and earth trembled, releasing a fresh scent in the air and a channel to Heaven appeared. Emperor Jun, the Great One, and other Sacred Demons sensed it immediately and felt a throb in their state of mind. Apparently, this was meant for them.

Meanwhile, the Mysterious Sign from Mount Buzhou also caught others’ attention. Yet they knew this was not destined for them, so they ignored it. Even Minghe was startled, yet he continued his Closed Door Meditation after a glance in the direction of Mount Buzhou.

Emperor Jun, the Great One, and other Sacred Demons hurried to the top of Mount Buzhou at once and saw the channel to Heaven and flew directly into it. On the other end of the channel, they felt as if they had arrived at another world. A huge door appeared in front of them, with three Taoism characters, which meant "Southern Gate", on it.

They walked through the Southern Gate and were awed by the scenery in front of them—palaces surrounded by an immortal aura, the air full of blessings, and red clouds with golden light shining through. There were also silk clothes, lotus hats, jade hairpins, pearl shoes with purple ribbons, and gold prints.

They became aware that they were in the Heavenly Court, which was divided into 36 floors, vast and wide. They walked all the way till the 36th Heaven, which was the most honorable place, called The Divine Wind Palace.

The Divine Wind Palace was even more magnificent, with gold nails in the jade pillars and a colorful dancing phoenix on the red door. The corridors were made with exquisite architecture with many eaves on the building designed with dragons and phoenixes which seemed alive. There was also a bright, purple-gold, rounded gourd top. How extravagant!

Emperor Jun was ecstatic about the appearance of the Heavenly Court and exclaimed, "Haha, we are blessed by the Gods. Such a precious gem should be ours. This place is full of Spiritual Air and the power of the stars, it’s the best place for us to cultivate. Listen, all of you. Go back instantly and call all our tribesmen to move to the Heavenly Court. This will be our new headquarter from now on."

All the Sacred Demons were elated, as they now had the Heavenly Court as their foundation. Their strength would surely increase rapidly. Those weak demons needed not be afraid of being killed and eaten by the Wu Tribe any longer. Upon receiving Emperor Jun’s order, they hurried back to Untainted Land and began their relocation process.
