Chapter 1135 of [The Shepherd's Tale] is temporarily complete; [Perfect World] begins.



"Moreover, Ling Tianzun once joined Tiandu City, saved the true spirit of the Lord of Tiandu, and exerted influence upon it."

"Therefore, after a wisp of the true spirit of the Lord of Tiandu was reborn seventeen times and became the ancient god Taiyi, his personality and temperament were quite different from those of the Lord of Tiandu in his previous life."

"This might be a fluke... no, it should be the universe's self-correction..."

Cao Ya sighed softly.

Without Ling Tianzun's downfall, would the Lord of Tiandu have been reincarnated as Taiyi?

Seeing that the group of people looked gloomy and unhappy, he spoke up and tried to cheer them up.

Although Ling Tianzun is not good at human relationships, his strength is still very strong, and his supernatural powers are extremely special. His origins are unknown, and even those who have attained enlightenment may suffer a great setback.

"Moreover, Ling Tianzun possesses exceptional comprehension and has lived through countless prehistoric eras. Perhaps, when he sees her again, he will have already become an extremely powerful being, comparable to the young master of the Mi Luo Palace."

Cao Ya laughed and said, "We cannot fall behind Ling Tianzun. We must hold on for seventeen epochs and wait patiently. Taiyi and Ling Tianzun will eventually return."

"Neither of them is weak."

Everyone nodded and breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Indeed, neither Taiyi nor Lingtianzun is weak.

They are all exceptionally talented individuals; given enough time, they will surely become stronger.

Afterwards, a group of people left to guard the ancestral temple.

However, since the myriad realms have just been pacified, the subsequent governance is of paramount importance.

Therefore, Kaihuang, Yun Tianzun, Qin Mu, Langwan Shenwang, and Yue Tianzun all returned to their ancestral home and only came to the ancestral temple occasionally.

On the other hand, Shujun, Taishi, and others, who did not hold any official positions, either traveled through the heavens or ventured into the ancestral court, trying to deal with the prehistoric masters who had smuggled themselves in.

With Cao Ya in charge at Daheishan, they weren't afraid at all.

Naturally, Cao Ya replaced Tai Yi and took charge of the ancestral temple, guarding against illegal immigrants from all directions.

Whenever something unusual happened at Daheishan, Cao Ya would be very vigilant and had driven back countless prehistoric Daoists.

It seems that they knew about Taiyi's downfall and were seizing the opportunity to smuggle themselves over.

However, they underestimated Cao Ya's strength.

One by one, they were covered in dust and dirt, and had no choice but to retreat to prehistoric times.

As time went on, the order of all realms was basically restored. With the governance of Yankang and the supervision of Yun Tianzun and others, it was many times better than the former Heavenly Court.

All kinds of people at the bottom of society now have avenues for upward mobility.

The overall order is very stable, and peace has arrived, unlike before when the Heavenly Court would frequently provoke wars to exterminate those heavens that they considered threatening.

The several eras of destruction in the primordial realm stemmed from this.

Under the guidance of Lan Yutian, Xu Shenghua, and others, and with the assistance of Si Youyou and others, the Divine Palace system became increasingly perfect, spreading throughout the heavens along with the Dao Realm system.

Yan Kang did not keep the fruits of reform to himself, but instead extended the reform to all walks of life.

Because it is too easy to fall into, the prehistoric masters try to sneak across every day to attack the Black Mountain. The Boundless Old Man, who is transformed from the World Tree, also shows signs of awakening.

Cao Ya's strength, though formidable, is still considerably inferior to Tai Yi's.

Afterwards, Qin Mu, Kaihuang, Yun Tianzun, Yue Tianzun, Langwan God King, and others all stayed in the ancestral court, joining forces with Cao Ya to deal with the prehistoric stowaways and drive them back.

Almost every day, fierce battles break out in the ancestral temple.

During the battle, everyone's cultivation level improved very rapidly.

The number of those who attain enlightenment is increasing.

Furthermore, experts from all the heavens, once they reach at least the level of a Celestial Venerable, will also come to the Ancestral Court to participate in the great battle.

It is not only about protecting the 17th century from which they originated, but also a kind of training. Fighting with prehistoric enlightened beings is very impactful and can help them see the road ahead and know the direction of their future progress.

After all, the prehistoric masters who smuggled themselves in were weakened and no longer at their peak; even those at the Heavenly Venerable level could barely participate in the battle.

The main problem is that the number of powerful individuals in the 17th century is still too small. It will take many more years of accumulation to reach a satisfactory level.

Before this, Cao Ya and his men had to work hard, guarding the ancestral temple and daring not to leave without permission.

Cao Ya's swordsmanship also advanced by leaps and bounds, rising from the thirty-seventh level of the Dao Realm to the thirty-ninth level.

With that divine sword and the profound mysteries of the laws, he was almost comparable to a being at the fortieth level of the Dao Realm!

And then there's the improvement of Qin Mu and the others...

Undoubtedly, their situation within the ancestral court is gradually improving. From being fraught with crisis at the beginning, they have slowly gained confidence, fought against the prehistoric enlightened beings, injured the World Tree, and delayed the awakening of the Boundless Elder.

Unfortunately, there is still no clue about Taiyi and Ling Tianzun.

They occasionally talk about it, and their concerns are there, but their confidence in each other keeps them optimistic.

During this time, Cao Ya entered the system space.

******

System space.

This time, no new people joined.

Therefore, soon, all the Cao Yas shared the power and memories, and were all surprised by the actions of Cao Ya in [The Legend of the Shepherd God].

Most importantly, Cao Ya's swordsmanship at the 39th level of the [Shepherd's Chronicle] is the ultimate level of the five-star high-level, and he is only one step away from breaking through to the peak of the five-star level.

If other forces are taken into account, their overall combat strength is already at the peak of the five-star level.

Immediately, everyone's eyes lit up, and they rubbed their hands together, many of them unable to contain themselves.

"Even without any other newcomers, we can still improve step by step, reaching the peak of the five-star level. We're not far from the six-star level." Cao Ya of [Immortal Gourd] said excitedly. In his own [Immortal Gourd] Primordial Universe, he had also reached the five-star level, which was the Pure Yang level. However, he had not yet cultivated to the peak of Pure Yang, so he was not yet at the advanced level of the five-star level.

Cao Ya from the Primordial Era laughed heartily and said, "Although I am already a five-star Grand Luo Immortal, I am still a beginner and there is still a long way to go before I can reach the six-star Quasi-Saint level above Grand Luo Immortal. However, with you all by my side, I may be able to rival a Quasi-Saint in the near future."

At this point, he paused for a moment, then continued, "At the very least, he can be compared to the strongest level of the Great Luo."

"I am finally somewhat confident in rescuing the Holy Mother of Ghosts who has been kind to me."

[Primordial Era] Cao Ya sighed, saying that the Holy Mother of Ghost Spirit of the Jie Sect had been kind to him and had greatly helped his subsequent cultivation.

Cao Ya of the Primordial Era will always remember this kindness.

He remembered that during the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, the Holy Mother of Ghosts died tragically. Not only did she not get to be listed on the Investiture of the Gods, but it seemed that she didn't even have the chance to be reincarnated.

Compared to the Three Immortal Maidens of Sanxiao and Zhao Gongming, who were listed on the Investiture of the Gods, their fates were undoubtedly much more tragic.

Therefore, Cao Ya of the [Primordial Era] has been thinking about how to rescue the Holy Mother of Ghosts and repay the kindness she once showed him.

During the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods, all sorts of powerful beings with extraordinary abilities participated, including countless five-star Grand Luo Immortals and six-star Quasi-Saints.

Even a seven-star Primordial Saint, in the end, still has to go to the battlefield to shake the heavens and the universe, and countless worlds are almost about to repeat the cycle of earth, fire, water and wind.

Therefore, even though Cao Ya of the Primordial Era had already advanced to the five-star Great Luo realm during this period, he knew that he was still powerless to save the Holy Mother of Ghost Spirits.

Even now, he isn't very confident in his ability to fight at the peak of a five-star level.

It's just much better than before.

Moreover, the Great Tribulation of the Investiture of the Gods had just begun, and there was still a long time before the Holy Mother of Ghosts met her demise.

What if he makes a breakthrough later, or another Cao Ya, achieves the six-star level...

[Primordial Era] Cao Ya thought to himself, "At present, the situation is still relatively optimistic."

His main concern was rescuing the Holy Mother of Ghosts. Other disciples of the Jie Sect and Chan Sect, or various gods and immortals, had nothing to do with him. Why should he risk his life to save her?

And the human race on the primordial land...

It must be acknowledged that King Wen of Zhou, King Wu of Zhou, including the Duke of Zhou who later temporarily took control of the government, as well as King Cheng of Zhou and King Kang of Zhou, were all wise rulers.

For the common people, it is not a bad thing that several generations of rulers have been wise and benevolent.

The situation regarding the successors of the Shang Dynasty was not so optimistic.

Otherwise, why would the Three Sovereigns, who were stationed at the Fire Cloud Cave, sit idly by and watch the Investiture of the Gods calamity?

Besides the fact that this calamity was determined by Dao Ancestor Hongjun and signed by the saints of various religions, making it unchangeable, the future fortunes of the Shang and Zhou dynasties also influenced the decisions of the Three Sovereigns of Huoyun Cave.

Who wouldn't wish for every generation of human dynasties to be ruled by wise and benevolent emperors?

However, this is too difficult, especially in the vast land where the world is ruled by hereditary monarchy.

Of course, matters that involve the overall trend of the prehistoric world are beyond the reach of Cao Ya, even as a six-star quasi-saint.

It has to be a peak six-star or even a seven-star saint!

What Cao Ya can do in the [Primordial Era] is to manage the lower realm, lay a solid foundation, and ensure that the people of the lower realm live in peace, prosperity, and happiness. At the same time, he should try to cultivate more extraordinary talents who can grow up and become qualified to support the human race in the entire [Primordial Era] universe.

Not only Cao Ya from the [Primordial Era], but also Cao Ya from other universes such as [Tomb of the Gods], [Eternal Life Realm], [Stellar Transformation], [Panlong], and [Peerless One], all had bright and radiant smiles.

They all saw more hope!

"Among us, quite a few have achieved five-star status, and there are also many three-star and four-star individuals."

[Perfect World] Cao Ya exclaimed, "The combined power of all these systems, even with some losses, is enough to support us in becoming overlords in our respective universes."

At this moment, his combat power, placed in the vast universe of "Perfect World," is comparable to that of a true immortal!

Various hidden dangers can be eliminated.

They can also travel to the borderland imperial pass to confront immortals from other realms, or even immortal kings—of course, this requires relying on the special geographical features of the imperial pass, as well as the immortal king treasures left behind by many immortal kings during the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths Immortal Ancient Era.

However, no matter what, the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are not without hope of resisting the alien realm.

"Yes, being a dominant power means that we can protect more people."

[The Realm of Immortality] Cao Ya sighed. In his universe, all sorts of great figures emerged one after another. Although he was still a step behind the six-star Stone King and the Supreme Ancestral God at the Great Perfection, it was not entirely hopeless.

Cao Ya from [The Tomb of the Gods] was equally excited.

He is still at the peak of the four-star Heavenly Rank, but his combat power has made leaps and bounds, comparable to a master among the Heaven-Defying level.

However, it is still far inferior when it comes to fighting against the evil Heavenly Dao.

Characters like Cao Ya from "Panlong" and Cao Ya from "The Great Ruler" were also extremely happy.

In their universe, a five-star peak level is enough to sweep away everything.

Of course, in the Panlong universe, excluding the main gods at each level, one cannot provoke the supreme god.

Moreover, the primordial chaos that opened up the universe is a seven-star existence.

Fortunately, HarmonyOS is not some ruthless player like a mastermind behind the scenes.

In reality, he did not manage the five universes. He simply waited patiently for the emergence of Hongmeng controllers in the five universes, who would leave their names on the Hongmeng Golden List and become life forms at the same level as him, his brothers and sisters.

To put it bluntly, all beings in the universe are created by the primordial chaos and cannot transcend it, so why would it treat them differently?

However, Cao Ya from [Stellar Transformation] is somewhat troubled.

At the peak of the five-star level, he would be considered one of the best among the gods in his universe.

Above these, there are God-Kings, Celestial Venerables, and ultimately, the primordial controllers.

What frustrated him most was that the God Realm in the [Stellar Transformation] universe was of the highest rank. Without becoming a God King, the restrictions were extremely great, and he couldn't be like the other Cao Yas, who could roam freely and unrestrainedly in their respective universes.

Cao Ya, the "Supreme Ruler of the World," also scratched his head.

He was happy, but a five-star peak level, placed in the [Peerless One] universe, would only be considered a legendary perfection, not even a six-star level of fortune.

The subsequent Creation Perfection, Pseudo-Other Shore, Other Shore Beings, Ancient Beings, the Most Ancient Beings, and many other great beings are still reviving and about to fully awaken, engaging in a great showdown at the end of the era.

This put too much pressure on him.

Meanwhile, Cao Ya from the worlds of [Yang Shen], [Global Martial Arts], [Lord of Mysteries], [After Ascension], and [Nine Cauldrons] browsed through various memories with great interest.

They have reached the pinnacle in their respective worlds.

Including the Way of the Blade, the Will of Death in Heaven and Earth, and so on, it has far surpassed the limits of the world!

After defeating powerful enemies and stabilizing the situation, order was restored and peace prevailed throughout the land. Apart from studying certain techniques and skills, he would savor the memories of the Cao Ya from those great universes and comprehend the related top-tier methods, trying his best to help Cao Ya from [Perfect World], Cao Ya from [Shepherd of the Gods], and Cao Ya from [Peerless One].

However, they were under little pressure, and progress was slow.

As they departed, everyone waited with anticipation.

"I wonder if there will be any new people joining next time? Hmm, preferably from a six-star or seven-star universe."

"If only I could be a seven-star... no, a six-star big shot, that would be wonderful."

"You're just dreaming!"

"What's wrong? It's not illegal."

The group of Cao Ya bickered for a while, and then left almost at the same time, their thoughts returning to their original bodies.

******

The Perfect World Universe.

Nine Heavens and Ten Earths.

The Boundless Heaven, one of the Nine Heavens, is home to the Heavenly God Academy.

[Perfect World] Cao Ya returned, feeling the renewed power within him and the unparalleled swordsmanship, and he couldn't help but smile.

"Buzz..."

Just then, the broken Heavenly Halberd suddenly appeared, trembling and exuding a sense of joy.

"I had some insights during my seclusion," Cao Ya said with a smile, glossing over the matter.

Then, he looked at the few fragments of the Heavenly Desolate Halberd and sighed.

He is indeed quite skilled at the moment, but it seems he is still lacking in ability to repair this halberd.

How can I restore you to full health?
