Chapter 1839: Heaven Crushing Sect’s Core Power

An Lin’s interest was instantly piqued.

They walked toward the east of the Land of Eternal Light.

After a short while, they arrived before a protective barrier that seemed to glow with nine vibrant colors. Resting within this protective barrier was a huge expanse of space.

An Lin could detect nine powers of different attributes radiating from this protective barrier.

In fact, the power that was imbued in this protective barrier was the power of heaven! Moreover, it was various different types of heavenly powers. They were layered and intertwining, and they formed into an even sturdier and even more powerful heaven!

There were only a few solitary figures training in the space within the protective barrier. The powers that they unleashed were immense, and even An Lin was slightly astonished by the might that they displayed. In total, there were only six people training on this drill ground. There was one individual of the Return to Void Intermediate Stage, four individuals of the Return to Void Final Stage, and one individual of the Dao Integration Stage.

Here, An Lin saw two powerful Celestial Immortals of the Heavenly Court—the Giant Spirit God, and True Lord Wu De.

“This is where the core power of our Heaven Crushing Sect trains. Each of these cultivators is able to endanger the Great Generals of the Heaven Pioneer Stage. Right now, most of them are already stationed around with the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army. That’s why it seems like there’s barely anyone here right now.

“These six cultivators are either here to rest, or here to attempt the ‘Heaven Crushing Nine-Layered Heaven’ trial. If they succeed in breaching this nine-colored barrier, then they’ll have earned the right to become the Heaven Crushing Sect’s first echelon members.”

The Ancient Dragon Empress pointed at the six cultivators before them as she spoke.

“Your sect’s Da Bai, Sun Yuluo, Su Qianyun, Xuanyuan Cheng, Yao Mingxi, and so on can most likely be classified as second echelon members.” The Ancient Dragon Empress thought back to their tests before saying this.

An Lin felt like he had to smack Da Bai’s bum when he got back. That b*stard wasn’t a member of the first echelon! How embarrassing!

Afterward, the Ancient Dragon Empress led An Lin to the side of the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace. There, they entered a place that was surrounded by layer upon layer of restriction spells. At that place, An Lin detected a terrifying power that ruled over the nomological laws.

His vision distorted, and the space around him transformed.

Heaven and earth instantly shifted appearances.

An Lin felt like he had arrived at a primitive and chaotic world. What entered his sights was a blood-red and desolate expanse of land. The land before him was strewn with the skeletons of gigantic beasts, and violent bursts of turbulent energy raged through the air. The void was extremely fragile and weak, and the sky in this realm was also divided into two distinct layers. The lower layer was white, and the upper layer was black. In the blink of an eye, however, these two layers reversed. The lower layer was now black, and the upper layer had become white.

Like the unending cycle of reincarnation, black and white cycled around in a never-ending loop.

“The destruction of chaos, and the birth of new matter… This is the sight of the birth of heaven and earth…” As if sensing something, An Lin asked, “Have we arrived at the Land of Eternal Light’s Small World?”

The Ancient Dragon Empress’ mouth curled up into a slight smile. “To be more precise, we’ve arrived at a simulated Small World. However, all the properties of this simulated world are identical to those found in the worlds created by ordinary Gods of Creation. In fact, this simulated Small World might be even sturdier!”

An Lin saw a being of the Holy Martial Clan meditating in the distance. The energy that radiated from this being swarmed about relentlessly, and it condensed into an almost physical form as it rippled outward and diffused throughout heaven and earth.

An Lin exclaimed in admiration. Not only was this being at the Dao Integration Intermediate Stage, but even the heaven crushing true intent that this being released was extremely pure.

“This is the practice arena for the first echelon members of the Heaven Crushing Sect. Your sect’s Xiao Hong, Cassidy, Tobias, Xue Zhantian, Little Huang, Xiao Ze, Xiao Tu, and so on are all members of this first echelon. The Heavenly Court’s four emperors and the Dao Integration Stage cultivators of the Four Great Sects are also members of this echelon.

“The cultivators who are able to enter this echelon are all the most skilled practitioners of the Heaven Crushing Techniques. This Small World is a place for them to cultivate and train. If they want to advance further, then they only need to do one thing…”

The Ancient Dragon Empress pointed at the black and white sky. “They need to use their strength, as well as the Heaven Crushing Techniques, to crush the heaven of this Small World! Simply tearing the sky isn’t enough. Rather, they need to destroy the Heavenly Dao of this Small World, then replace it with themselves!”

An Lin couldn’t help but suck in a deep breath as he looked at the chaotic sky and sensed the indestructible nature of the small world. “This… this is a bit insane…”

The Ancient Dragon Empress chuckled and said, “An Lin, isn’t crushing this heaven an extremely easy task for you? All you need to do is unleash your Finger of the Heavenly Dao at full power. As for superseding heaven… If you join the Heaven Crushing Sect, then Cyril and Chen Chen will teach you the method…”

“Oh, there’s no need for that,” An Lin said as he shook his head. “Chen Chen has already taught me that method in secret.”

Ancient Dragon Empress: “…”

So, how many things have Chen Chen kept secret from us?

Even if you give preferential treatment, there still needs to be a limit!

The Ancient Dragon Empress suddenly felt a bit depressed.

An Lin was still sighing with emotion. Who’d have thought that the Heaven Crushing Sect would genuinely prepare a Small World for its members to practice Heaven Crushing Techniques in? This kind of massive investment is truly…

“What happens if someone genuinely obliterates this heaven and supersedes the Heavenly Dao?” An Lin asked curiously.

The Ancient Dragon Empress chuckled and replied, “If that happens, then they’ll become a Heavenly Disciple Candidate of the Heaven Crushing Sect! In theory, they’ll be powerful enough to battle against Heavenly Gods, both ordinary ones and ones who possess Heavenly Dao Power. The Heaven Crushing Sect will provide as many resources as possible to train these Heavenly Disciple Candidates. We’ll give them every chance to become a true Heavenly Disciple.

“Currently, we only have three Heavenly Disciple Candidates—the Buddhist Kingdom’s Battling Buddha, the Garden of Eden’s Holy Angel Michael, and the Dark Night Spirit Realm’s Fairy Queen Yun Mengying. They’re all trying their best to become the Fifth Heavenly Disciple.”

An Lin couldn’t help but sigh with emotion again. “The Heaven Crushing Sect is truly brimming with talented individuals…”

He understood what the power to destroy and then reconstruct the Heavenly Dao of the Small World meant. This was definitely a power that surpassed even super mighty beings of the Dao Integration Stage!

The Ancient Dragon Empress sighed softly. “We initially had four Heavenly Disciple Candidates. It’s a pity that the Dark Thunder Emperor died in the Heavenly God execution battle.

“That’s right, your Four Nine Immortal Sect is the one that’s truly brimming with talented individuals!”

An envious expression suddenly appeared on the Ancient Dragon Empress’ face. “If your sect’s Bai Ling, Tina, and Xu Xiaolan join the Heaven Crushing Sect, then they’ll undoubtedly become Heavenly Disciple Candidates! Even in the Heaven Crushing Sect, they’ll still be regarded as pillars who hold up the entire sect. If all goes smoothly, they might even become genuine Heavenly Disciples!”

“Stop dreaming about poaching members from my sect. They’re all so adorable… There’s no way they’ll ever join your Heaven Crushing Sect.” An Lin ruthlessly shattered the Ancient Dragon Empress’ wishful thoughts.

A keen sparkle appeared in the Ancient Dragon Empress’ eyes. “How about… you join the Heaven Crushing Sect? You’ll immediately become the Third Heavenly Disciple. You should seriously consider this, given that Chen Chen loves you so much…”

An Lin almost spat out a mouthful of blood. “Who’d have thought? Even you’ve learned to become naughty!”

The Ancient Dragon Empress wore a refreshing and gentle smile on her face. She waved a hand and said, “Alright, I’ll take you to meet Cyril now.”

The two of them left the Small World and walked into the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.

The entire palace was constructed from an extremely unique type of glazed stone. The lighting inside was spectacular, and the architecture of the palace was grand and magnificent. Not only was the energy density in the glazed stones very high, but one could even look through them and see a completely different expanse of sky, depending on which region of stone one looked through.

Some areas of the sky were gloomy and overcast, while other areas of the sky were bright and sunshiny for as far as the eye could see. There were also areas of the sky that were raging with blizzards, as well as areas of the sky that were filled with a torrential sea of blood…

An Lin flew around the ceiling as he enjoyed the various different types of scenery. Some of the skies were extremely twisted and chaotic, and they displayed a state of unreasonable amorphousness. However, he had an intuition that these skies truly existed in some place unknown to him.

“Fellow cultivator An Lin, we meet again.”

At this moment, a calm and gentle voice suddenly traveled over.
