Not only were the God Kings unsure, but even Qin Yu, God King Yi Feng, God King of Death, and Jiang Li were on guard, worried that the Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable might suddenly appear and be ruthless in his killing!

They are indeed powerful, their top-tier spiritual treasures are incredibly strong, but when the Celestial Venerable makes a move, even the Asura God King is powerless to resist... It should be noted that the Asura God King also possesses top-tier spiritual treasures!

Furthermore, it is common knowledge that all Celestial Venerables possess Celestial Venerable Treasures!

That is the strongest spiritual treasure!

Qin Yu was extremely cautious and ready at any moment. He used the power of the new universe to envelop the five people and send them away.

He was extremely wary of the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable!

Although Cao Ya was somewhat certain that Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable was unlikely to take action openly, and that Floating Feather Celestial Venerable would stop him... even if Floating Feather Celestial Venerable were to stand by and watch, Free and Unfettered Celestial Venerable would not sit idly by!

But you can't always rely on others for these kinds of things.

In case the Feathered Celestial Venerable and the Carefree Celestial Venerable are a little slow, and judging by the destructive power of the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable after unleashing his Celestial Venerable Treasure...

Cao Ya couldn't help but shake his head. A six-star peak expert, who also possessed the most suitable treasure of the same level, was more than the sum of its parts! Even the slightest aftershock was enough to take the life of a God-King!

Cao Ya's overall combat strength is indeed strong, and he also has three great spiritual treasures, but he is still no match for him!

He was equally vigilant, and at the slightest mistake, he would immediately flee back to the new universe created by Qin Yu!

The Death God King, Yi Feng God King, and Jiang Li were also on guard, which prevented them from going all out to kill the weaker opponents!

"Boom!" Finally, at the top of the heavens in the divine realm, lightning flashed and something seemed to have changed.

In an instant, Cao Ya, Qin Yu, Jiang Li, the God of Death, and the God of Yi Feng all stood in awe!

"Heavenly Venerable!" Zhou Huo, Zhou Tong, Zhou Ran, and Jiang Fan were overjoyed.

Only Zhou Wulian remained calm, showing neither joy nor sorrow.

The group of god-kings in the distance also looked solemn. The Heavenly Venerable's terror was beyond doubt; if he were to take his anger out on them...

They couldn't help but continue retreating, since with their "Great Perfection of the Laws of Space," they could observe the battle with their divine sense from anywhere!

"Prepare to return to the new universe!" Qin Yu transmitted his voice, and the other four immediately gathered around him.

This gave Zhou Huo and Jiang Fan some space, finally allowing them a chance to catch their breath.

"Crackling and popping..." Suddenly, lightning flashed and thunder roared again, and a terrifying pressure swept through the misty swamp, making even the distant god-kings seem unable to breathe.

Everyone realized that it must be the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable, who was about to make his appearance!

They immediately became respectful. Even the God Kings of the three major ascendant forces, such as the Asura God King, the Blood Demon Queen, the Misty God King, and the Pufa God King, dared not be disrespectful!

Just as the eight royal families' god-kings would be extremely respectful when facing the carefree Celestial Venerable.

"Go!" Qin Yu shouted, and with a surge of new cosmic power, he and the four of them vanished.

Let alone Jiang Li, the Death God King, and the Yi Feng God King, even Cao Ya, who is familiar with many hidden matters, dares not gamble on whether Piaoyu Heavenly Venerable and Xiaoyao Heavenly Venerable will take action to stop Lei Fa Heavenly Venerable this time!

When it comes to matters of life and death, no amount of caution is too much.

After all, since Tianzun Mountain did not descend, Piaoyu Tianzun had no suitable reason to stop Zhou An.

However, the Carefree Celestial Venerable... lacked the abilities of the Floating Feather Celestial Venerable and was unable to subdue Zhou An.

Even if a real fight breaks out, with the accumulation of an extra epoch, Zhou An might even be able to take the lead over Xiaoyao Tianzun!

With such concerns, why would Cao Ya linger in the God Realm? He hurriedly ran back to the New Universe!

The world that Qin Yu created is his main base. Without this way of retreat, let alone Cao Ya and the others, Qin Yu himself would never even think of building a Misty City!

Outside the Purple Mystic Star in the new universe, Jiang Lan also appeared, standing alongside the five people with a solemn expression, looking towards the God Realm through the passage.

"If they could follow the passage and reach the new universe..." Qin Yu murmured, then suddenly shook his head.

Don't even think about something this wonderful; it's almost impossible!

"Just how powerful is the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable?" Jiang Li asked softly.

Jiang Lan, Yi Feng, and the God King of Death all sighed and said, "The Heavenly Venerable not only possesses the strongest Heavenly Venerable Spiritual Treasure, surpassing even the first-class Primordial Spiritual Treasure, but has also completely mastered the Law of Time!"

"The freezing of time has already secured Luo Fan's position as the number one god-king in the god realm!"

"'Time reversal'... To be honest, we can't even imagine what that would look like!"

The three looked at each other and couldn't help but smile bitterly. Don't be fooled by the God King's overwhelming power over the divine realm and the respect he commands from all beings. When the Heavenly Venerable appears, he is nothing but an ant, easily destroyed with a flick of his finger, just as the God King can instantly kill gods and mortals.

"Hmm, judging from the situation, the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable won't show himself." Cao Ya suddenly stroked his chin. The lightning outside began to dissipate, and that incomparably powerful aura also faded away.

"Was it because Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable couldn't find us and was forced to stop, or... were we stopped by the other two Celestial Venerables?" Cao Ya pondered.

At this, Qin Yu, Jiang Li, the God of Death, the God of Yi Feng, and Jiang Lan all burst into laughter.

"We have no connection with Celestial Venerable Piaoyu or Celestial Venerable Xiaoyao, so how could we possibly offend Celestial Venerable Leifa for our sake?" Qin Yu was speechless.

“Although the Carefree Celestial Venerable is the backer of the Ascended lineage, the situation in Misty City is quite special, and it is not quite the same as that in the Asura Sea, Blood Demon Mountain, and Twin Domains Island,” the Death God King also shook his head and said.

Cao Ya and Jiang Li are both natives of the God Realm, especially Jiang Li, who comes from the Arctic Snowdrift City!

This doesn't even include Jiang Lan!

Only Qin Yu, the God King of Death, and the God King Yi Feng are ascendants from the lower realm!

Given their situation, it would be reasonable to call them an ascendant force, and it would also seem plausible to consider them a major local power.

It seems like you're getting the best of both worlds, but in reality, you're pleasing neither!

"The Celestial Venerable..." Jiang Lan sighed. If he were the Celestial Venerable, perhaps Zuo Qiumei would not have perished.

"Originally, I was quite pleased with myself for having two first-rate spiritual treasures, but now I realize that I've become a frog in a well, only seeing the sky from the bottom of the well," Yi Feng God King laughed. "Even without the appearance of the Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable, his aura alone made me feel as if the sky were collapsing and the earth was sinking, posing a crisis of annihilation!"

"It is said that Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable and Carefree Celestial Venerable are similar, but both are inferior to Floating Feather Celestial Venerable..." Jiang Li couldn't help but yearn for it. The Celestial Venerable realm possesses immense and unfathomable power!

"Indeed, of the three Celestial Venerables, the Feathered Celestial Venerable is the foremost! The true strongest being in the God Realm is none other than him!"

Qin Yu, Jiang Lan, Yi Feng God King, and Death God King nodded in admiration.

Cao Ya smiled slightly and didn't say anything more. Piaoyu Tianzun was indeed very powerful, but Hongmeng and Linmeng existed… well, those two had already transcended the universe and weren't considered powerful figures in the God Realm anymore. Saying Piaoyu Tianzun was the number one in the God Realm wouldn't be a problem!

As for the Celestial Venerable of Freedom... to be honest, Cao Ya really wasn't sure if the Celestial Venerable of Freedom would make a move!

Lei Fa Tian Zun must know Hou Fei's background and wouldn't harm him.

A mere upper-level celestial being is not worth him wielding his sword! Besides, the outside world hasn't even appeared yet!

As long as Hou Fei is safe, would the Carefree Celestial Venerable really care about what happens to others?

Cao Ya couldn't figure it out, so naturally he didn't dare to take the gamble.

If you lose, you'll lose your life!

If Tianzun Mountain had already descended, Cao Ya was confident that Piaoyu Tianzun would make a move.

Outside, the group of God Kings all vanished instantly. Jiang Fan, Zhou Huo, and others were quite puzzled as to why Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable only revealed a portion of his power and did not directly take action to kill Cao Ya, Qin Yu, and the others.

But how could they dare to question the actions of the Heavenly Venerable? Even Zhou Huo and others, who were descendants of the Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable "Zhou An," were treated with utmost reverence.

"Whoosh." And so they left, each returning to Snowdrift City and Thunder Punishment City respectively.

And the Misty City has already tacitly acknowledged its existence! With such terrifying five God-Kings in charge, and the Heavenly Venerable not appearing, the Misty City is undoubtedly the strongest independent major power!

In this way, the eight royal families still occupy the eight directions of the God Realm Continent. The Asura Sea dominates the inner sea, the Twin Domains Island drifts in the outer sea, and the Blood Demon Mountain is sandwiched between the Arctic Snowdrift City and the Northwest Thunder Punishment City.

The newest city, Misty City, is located between the Eastern Pole Golden Mountain and the Northeast Forest City!

The Misty Swamp, a perilous place in the realm of gods, comparable to the territory of a powerful force, has finally found its owner!

However, those who know this are currently only the many god-kings and their close descendants and disciples.

The general public in the divine realm is unaware of the existence of the Misty City.

But as time goes by, it will inevitably spread!

On the other side, high above Thunder Punishment City, Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable's face was ashen.

"Third junior brother, how dare you stop me?" Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable was furious. Did he really think he wouldn't dare to kill him?

Although the Carefree Celestial Venerable was also powerful, he was no match for him! Having lived an extra epoch of Celestial Venerable life, even though their strength was comparable, Zhou An believed that he was ahead of the Carefree Celestial Venerable in terms of magic and treasures.

Only the eldest brother, Piaoyu Tianzun, is superior in all three aspects: power, magic, and treasures!

The Celestial Venerable of Freedom smiled and said, "Why should the Celestial Venerable interfere in the disputes among the God Kings?"

"Second Senior Brother, your Thunder Punishment City is already domineering enough. You should know that you should be lenient when you can."

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable sneered and said, "That's because Thunder Punishment City is strong enough! Even without me, it is still the head of the eight great royal families!"

The Carefree Celestial Venerable raised an eyebrow and said, "What about the Asura Sea? What about Misty City? Thunder Punishment City? I'm afraid they can't compare."

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable snorted coldly and said, "That's because they didn't count me!"

The Carefree Celestial Venerable laughed and said, "Since you've included yourself, I'll also join in. Is that alright?"

Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable's expression was cold as he stared at Carefree Celestial Venerable, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

The carefree Celestial Venerable remained fearless. Even though he couldn't defeat the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable, his second senior brother had no chance of killing him!

Everyone has taken shortcuts to achieve their goals; they're all at the same level. Who's much more powerful than whom?

In another one or two more cycles, the Carefree Celestial Venerable will be very confident that he can rival the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable!

Moreover, by then, there will be one or two more Celestial Venerables.

What changes will occur in the backers of the various factions? That remains to be seen.

"Thump." Suddenly, the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu appeared, with silver hair and silver eyes, a young appearance, and a cold expression.

The Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable and the Carefree Celestial Venerable immediately ceased their confrontation and showed great reverence.

"Senior Brother."

Even though they are both Celestial Venerables, there is a difference between them! The two of them combined could not stop Celestial Venerable Piaoyu!

Furthermore, among Master Lin Meng's disciples, only Piaoyu Tianzun was truly valued.

The most obvious example is the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu, who can directly meet with Lin Meng and knows where to find him.

Zhou An and Hou Yong could only passively wait for Lin Meng to summon them.

They even suspected that if it weren't for the arrival of Tianzun Mountain, a Heavenly Venerable would inevitably emerge, but they feared they would have no chance of becoming one. They still believed that Piaoyu Heavenly Venerable was the strongest in the God Realm, unaware of Lin Meng's existence! Just like those God Kings!

Another point is that, although Piaoyu Tianzun did not take shortcuts, he still retains the possibility of further improvement.

In every aspect, they are inferior to the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu.

How could I dare to be disrespectful?

They couldn't help but mutter to themselves that even if Celestial Venerable Piaoyu were to kill them, their master Lin Meng wouldn't punish them once he found out.

However, the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu was ordered to manage the Divine Realm and many lower realms. The Celestial Venerable was an assistant, and Zhou An and Hou Yong had both been chosen by Lin Meng. He could not possibly kill them without authorization.

Of course, Qin Yu is special; his connection to the Hongmeng Space already destined him to become its controller.

Just now, even if the Carefree Celestial Venerable hadn't made a move, the Feathered Celestial Venerable would have shown up to stop the Thunder Punishment Celestial Venerable.

"Second Junior Brother, Third Junior Brother, the latest Heavenly Venerable Mountain is about to descend."

"You should know how much Master values ​​this. I hope you won't displease Master."

The Heavenly Venerable of Floating Feathers' silver eyes were icy cold, seemingly devoid of any emotion.

Although he held management responsibilities in the Linmeng Universe, he did not have any relatives or friends there, nor did he ever take on any disciples.

He was born in the Hongmeng Universe and was later favored by Lin Meng, who traveled to various universes, and was taken as his disciple.

After the creation of the Linmeng Universe, the Celestial Venerable, who had already achieved independent Dao, was sent by Linmeng to govern the God Realm. However, most of the time, he remained in the Hongmeng Universe, only returning at crucial moments.

It's clear that two eras are about to pass, and the third era is about to begin. A new Celestial Venerable is about to be born. This is an extremely important moment for the Linmeng Universe! He couldn't possibly not return!

Later, Lin Meng will appear and summon all the Heavenly Venerables!

"We understand." Zhou An and Hou Yong, their initial confrontation gone, were both trembling with fear.

"Second Junior Brother, from the time the Heavenly Venerable Mountain descends until the new Heavenly Venerable is born, you only have one chance to make a move, which has already been promised to Jiang Fan."

Piaoyu Tianzun then looked at Zhou An and warned, "If you act recklessly, violate the rules, or make multiple attacks, I will, on behalf of my master, enforce the rules and eliminate you!"

The Thunder Punishment Heavenly Venerable "Zhou An" lowered his head and looked obediently, daring not to disobey in the slightest.

Even the carefree Celestial Venerable has limitations, but he makes no promises and acts according to his own will.

He might not even use that opportunity to make a move! He'll just observe coldly from the sidelines!

Some who were optimistic, such as the Asura God King, the Blood Sea Queen, Qin Yu, and Cao Ya, thought it was better for them not to take this shortcut.

In the future, he will become a Celestial Venerable, even surpassing his status!

The future is even brighter!

The same applies to the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu; he too abides by the rules.

Anyway, he didn't have any particular favorites. If his master favored him, he would lend a hand. For example, last time, when Hou Yong went from "Free and Unfettered God King" to "Free and Unfettered Heavenly Venerable," it was Lin Meng who instructed the Floating Feather Heavenly Venerable to secretly help him.

Now that Qin Yu has embarked on the right path to becoming a controller, there's no need to worry anymore.

And this is the latest, and the third, Heavenly Venerable Mountain in the divine realm...

Piaoyu Tianzun had already learned from Lin Meng that the candidate had been chosen: Che Houyuan, who was still in the lower realm!

Currently, none of the god-kings in the divine realm will be chosen!

Of course, this doesn't mean they have no chance. If they manage to seize a portion of the Heavenly Venerable's spiritual treasures and comprehend them, and perhaps even achieve enlightenment and cultivate themselves into Heavenly Venerables, that would be even more precious than the "slots" from Heavenly Venerable Mountain!

When the Celestial Venerable Piaoyu learned of the situation of Che Houyuan, he also sighed with regret.

The path to becoming a ruler has been severed!

Compensating with a "Celestial Venerable" is already quite regrettable!

"The time has come; Tianzun Mountain is destined to emerge."
