Chapter 1357 The Battle of the Gods (Part 4)
Divine Realm Nine Shao Divine Palace
Jiu Shao withdrew his hand, which was covered with the divine runes of punishment, from the "Mirror of Sight." Looking at the wisps of lightning power that had appeared on his hand, as well as the golden divine runes of punishment that were about to disappear, a fierce glint flashed in his eyes.

He immediately returned to the cultivation room to meditate, trying to force out the punishment divine runes hidden in his palm. However, just as he was mobilizing the divine power in his body, the old wound on his chest seemed to be activated. Strange blue-purple patterns spread from his chest to his whole body, causing Jiu Shao to sway and fall to the ground in pain.

Jiu Shao gritted his teeth and growled:

"Xihe!!"

But no one responded to him. Jiu Shao endured the pain and lay quietly on the ground, wanting to wait for the pain to subside before getting up. However, this time the old injury relapsed very fiercely and lasted longer than before.

The culprit behind all of this was the Taixu Heavenly Ice Flame that Yunxi sent into the wound.

After Taixu's clone entered the enemy's palm, it planned to lie low and wait for its master to come to its door before unleashing its power. However, after the hand withdrew from the "viewing mirror," Taixu sensed a familiar aura, an aura that was exactly the same as his own.

Therefore, when Jiu Shao channeled his energy to force out the punishment divine runes on his palm, the Tai Xu clone moved along the meridians to his chest, finally merging with that familiar aura.

The next second, Taixu's clone confirmed that the one left inside the enemy's body was another clone of itself, which meant that they were one entity, both deliberately left inside the enemy's body.

The combined Taixu Heavenly Ice Flame was even stronger than before, quickly drawing upon the lightning power within Jiu Shao's body. The two forces attacked Jiu Shao's meridians again with lightning speed, causing his old injuries to flare up and preventing him from immediately expelling the Punishment Divine Rune from his body.

Because of Taixu's proactive attack, Jiu Shao's secret entry into the lower realm and interference with the development of the Immortal Realm was exposed. At this time, Jiu Shao, who was in excruciating pain, was unaware that his Jiu Shao Divine Palace had been surrounded by heavenly soldiers and generals.

The leading divine general had already knocked on the gates of the divine palace and, following the arrow in his hand, headed straight for Jiu Shao's cultivation room.

The female servants and attendants inside the Jiu Shao Divine Palace were all terrified, afraid of being implicated, and dared not take a step closer.

Bai Ze, inside the Bai Ze Divine Palace, finally broke his slumber. Shaking his head, he transformed into human form, with a handsome and refined face, dressed in snow-white robes, and long silver hair casually draped behind him. His wise eyes looked in the direction of the Jiu Shao Palace, and he coldly uttered the words "He brought it on himself."

Soon after, news spread from the Divine Realm that Jiu Shao had interfered with the trajectory of the lower realm without authorization. After the situation was investigated, he was sent to the "Abyss of Fallen Gods" in the Divine Realm and imprisoned for one hundred years.

The gods who received the news were also discussing the matter privately.

"What exactly did Jiu Shao do to be imprisoned in the Abyss of Fallen Gods? I feel like he might not have a chance to come back."

"I really didn't know. No word of it had leaked out before. However, the general guarding the Abyss of Fallen Gods said that Jiu Shao's old injuries had relapsed, and with the punishment runes entering his body, his strength had dropped drastically. It seems that his soul had been severely damaged."

"Tsk tsk, so miserable. Who told him to extend his reach into the lower realms? That's a taboo in the divine realm."

"You don't know, do you? Jiu Shao participated in the great war between good and evil back then. He survived only because he had nine lives, which allowed him to fill the missing divine position. But I heard that he seems to be loyal to the evil god."

Is this really true?

"The information has no source, but you can refer to it. If any of you are familiar with the God of Fate, you can ask him privately."

“Si Ming has recently gone into seclusion, so I probably won’t be able to get any information out of him. However, when I was drinking with Si Ming before, he drunkenly said that a new evil god was about to be born and would soon return to his rightful place.”

"Tsk, the Evil God Palace is finally about to welcome a new master."

"I wonder what kind of personality this new evil god has, and whether he will start another war?"

"You don't need to worry about that. Even if he wants to start another war, he'll need to have the ability. The newly returned evil god only has the strength of a Celestial God, which is not enough to stir up trouble in the Divine Realm." "I hope so."

After witnessing Jiu Shao being taken away, the gods withdrew their divine consciousness. However, this matter still attracted the attention of some people, who all turned their gazes to Xihe Divine Palace. Unfortunately, Xihe Divine Palace remained closed, indicating that the master of the palace had been reincarnated and had not returned.

Yunxi and Shangchuan, who had returned to the Central Immortal Realm, went into seclusion. They were both injured by the powerful force reaching down from the Upper Realm, so the Central Immortal Realm was temporarily overseen by Immortal King Youjun, while Immortal King Yitu received orders to go to the Burial God Sea to guard it.

When Immortal King Yi Tu arrived, the Immortal Kings of the other four domains also arrived one after another. After exchanging a few words, the five of them each chose a direction to conceal their figures and silently watched the entire Burial God Sea.

After the barrier was lifted, Yunxi entered the space and lay down in the advanced treatment chamber again. This time, in addition to her internal injuries, her right arm was also seriously injured. She wanted to recover as soon as possible, believing that the evil god did not have much time left for them.

Lili watched with concern as her master lay down in the treatment pod before beginning to survey the space. Finally, she fell into a deep sleep under the Enlightenment Tree, beginning a new round of advancement.

After confirming that their master was alright, Dian Dian, Cong Shan, Feng Xia, and Zhu Sheng successively entered a state of cultivation. Their master's cultivation speed was so fast that they felt they hadn't been able to help him much, so they put all their effort into cultivation, hoping to have the opportunity to lend their master a hand in the future.

The five who had successfully ascended to the Divine Realm—Lin Yuan, Mei Huan, Mo Ya, Long Mo, and Wu Sheng—finally stood on the Conferred God Platform. At this moment, a man at the Divine Child Realm approached them, yawning, and said in a businesslike manner:

"This is the first heaven of the Divine Realm. Congratulations on your successful ascension. This is your identity badge. You must keep it safe and not lose it, otherwise you will not be able to move freely in the first heaven."

After speaking, he waved his sleeve, and a line of golden divine runes appeared above the heads of the five people. The priest stroked his chin and said:

"The five of you have different cultivation systems, so you need to go to places that suit your cultivation. Before heading to your respective places, you must first convert the immortal energy in your bodies into divine energy."

"The time limit is one month. After one month, regardless of whether the transformation is complete, you must leave the Conferred God Platform. Understand?"

The five exchanged glances and respectfully replied:
"I understand now."

"The identity jade token contains cultivation techniques suitable for you. Now I will take you to your temporary accommodations, which are still within the 'Conferred God Platform' area. You must not wander off."

The priest recited a long list of rules, which the five of them silently memorized. After the priest finished his rambling, they arrived at their temporary lodging, which was a somewhat desolate courtyard.

The priest pointed to the courtyard and said:
"Few people ascend through this Conferred God Platform, so there aren't many people living in the courtyard. You can choose any room you like, and once you've chosen, just insert your identity badge into the slot in front of the door."

Having said everything that needed to be said, the priest prepared to leave.

Lin Yuan approached the priest and respectfully bowed, saying:

"Priest, may I have a moment? I have some questions."

"Any questions?"

"May I ask, High Priest, if the development of the mortal realm goes smoothly, is it possible for the entire realm to ascend to the divine realm?"

The priest seemed to have heard something incredible, and picked at his ear, saying:
"The wind was a bit strong just now, I didn't hear you clearly, could you ask again?"

My darlings, this is the fourth update. See you tomorrow! Goodnight!
