Chapter 1008: The Center Of the Divine Lands & The Origins Of The Supreme Heavenly Mirror

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

Liu Xiafeng\'s release of the Burning Heavens Divine Radiance appeared like the rise of a blistering sun into the sky.

Rolling golden flames burned ceaselessly like the Sun in midday and seared everything under the sky, and engulfed Yang Zhao as he was attempting to retreat using the Dimensionless Transformation. The layers of white clouds quickly evaporated and dissipated.

The Dimensionless Transformation spell of the Great Void Sect was profound and sophisticated, and allowed the cultivator to morph his body between illusion and reality to avoid the incoming attacks of his or her opponent and took away the target of the incoming spell.

Any attacking move, no matter how powerful, was useless and a waste of effort without a target.

However, this spell was limited by multiple weaknesses. Any cultivator that wasn\'t in the immortal stage using this spell, when he phased into the illusory world using this spell and when he phased back into reality, he would still remain in the same position.

Furthermore, the duration that aurous core stage cultivators could remain in the illusory world was extremely temporary.

Yang Zhao could only watch his widened eyes as his body was engulfed and consumed by the detonation of the Burning Heavens Divine Radiance, and felt the scorch of the Grand Sun Primordial Fire on his body.

"I was tricked." Yang Zhao heaved a defeated sigh inside. He attempted to trick Liu Xiafeng, and ended up falling into Liu Xiafeng\'s trap himself.

More accurately put, Li Xingfei also had a part to play in this elaborate deception. When he saw the mocking smile on her face, how could he not realize that everything was an artifice from the beginning to the end – her revelation of emotions was intentional.

Her actions weren\'t meant to disrupt Liu Xiafeng\'s state of mind. On the contrary, it was meant to aid Liu Xiafeng into misleading the accuracy of Yang Zhao\'s judgment.

The person that was sliding down the slope and deeper into the trap wasn\'t Liu Xiafeng but him.

Once he made sense of everything, he could feel a deep sense of regret from the bottom of his heart. If he played around with Liu Xiafeng using the Supreme Drifting Song Spell, even though he may still not have been able to defend himself against the Burning Heavens Divine Radiance, there was a still a chance of continuing the battle, and he would not end up like he was now – complete defeat, and no chance to reenter the battle.

Yang Zhao was about to be completely consumed by the raging flames, and Chen Xingyu, Mu Xuan and Guo Chaoyang started to frown, while Guo Chaoyang acted instantly and arrived beside Yang Zhao. He waved his sleeves and a circle of black and white mana surged out to dissipate the roaring flames of the Grand Sun Primordial Fire.

The arrangement was a battle of pure mantra and power and excluded other exterior items. Both Yang Zhao and Liu Xiafeng passed their magic items and talismans and what not to Guo Chaoyang and Yang Tie respectively before their battle began.

And now, Yang Zhao was about to experience an untimely death and appeared like he didn\'t even have the power to protect himself.

"Junior Yang has lost this round," Guo Chaoyang grunted coldly and only dispelled the Grand Sun Primordial Fire around Yang Zhao, and didn\'t take the opportunity to launch his own assault against Liu Xiafeng.

Liu Xiafeng didn\'t push the issue either, and clasped his hands towards Yang Zhao who was already under the protection of Guo Chaoyang. "Thanks."

Guo Chaoyang\'s face was dark as he said quietly, "It\'s only the first round."

Yang Tie, Liu Xiafeng and Li Xingfei raised their eyebrows at his comment. Zhou Yuncong was expressionless, bar the pair of eyes that were staring coldly at Guo Chaoyang.

Outside the Small Divine Lands World, Lin Feng and the Zheng Yi Holy Man were witnesses to this epic battle.

At their level, whether it was from status or from strength, the battles between aurous core stage cultivators and their displays of spells, no matter how intricate and how sophisticated, were unassuming.

From their perspective, it was more important to observe the spirit and resilience of the younger generation of disciples and their display of potential.

The Zheng Yi Holy Man said casually, "You have pretty impressive disciples, Master Lin. Congratulations."

Lin Feng had the same calm look on his face. "You flatter me. The youngsters are not bad indeed, but they still need to continue working hard."

Lin Feng was not overly modest about the display of the younger disciples from his sect, and neither was he overpraise them. His language and tone were straightforward and simple.

The Xuan Lin Holy Man and Wang Lin\'s Great Satanic Avatar were both standing behind their respective seniors, and neither of them said anything besides staring at each other in silence.

Lin Feng and the Zheng Yi Holy Man were still competing with each other via the Small Divine Lands World created by the Crucible of the Divine Lands. At this point in time, the surroundings of the Crucible were covered by purple energy and balls of white clouds.

Both parties were on opposite ends of an impasse and they were practically each dominating one half.

Lin Feng\'s Thunder Dragon Avatar and one hand of the Avatar of Ares were both latched onto the Small Divine Lands World at this moment.

His expression didn\'t change, but a sparkle lit up in his eyes as the purple energy blanketing the Small Divine Lands World started to permeate inwards.

The Zheng Yi Holy Man virtually did the same thing at the same time, and the vast patches of cloud energy creeped into the inner regions of the Small Divine Lands World, and filled the entire area with thick white mist.

Yang Tie, Zhou Yuncong, Guo Chaoyang, Chen Xingyu and Mu Xuan watched the world change before their very eyes and raised their guards in anticipation.

Suddenly, the purple energies and the rolling white clouds intertwined together and shook the entire world.

Yang Tie and company were engulfed by the sprawling clouds, and their surroundings flashed before them once again. The entire group felt like they were riding the clouds and surging around inside the Small Divine Lands World.

Their surroundings continued to change incessantly. They seemed familiar yet novel at the same time, and they appeared real yet illusory. Yang Tie, Zhou Yuncong and the others saw the appearance of Mount Kunlun, the endless East Sea, the Southern Wilderness and the Northern Snow Fields.

However, their ultimate destination was a mountain peak that they had never seen before.

Even though they had never been to this place before, judging by the path of their travels and the landmarks they passed on their way here, Yang Tie and the other disciples of the Celestial Sect of Wonders had no trouble recognizing this location.

"This should be the mountain gate of the Great Void Sect, the resting place of Mount Baiyun!" Yang Tie, Liu Xiafeng and Li Xingfei exchanged glances as they felt a little surprised.

"Why have we been sent here? Is this…"

Even the group of Great Void Sect disciples were taken unawares as they found themselves in this familiar place.

Outside the Crucible of the Divine Lands, Lin Feng, the Zheng Yi Holy Man, Wang Lin and the Xuan Lin Holy Man observed the situation calmly.

Wang Lin muttered under his breath, "Master, the Cang Heaven Blade and the Xuan Heaven Seal are right – Mount Baiyun used to be the center of the flow of spiritual energy within the Divine Lands."

Lin Feng nodded his head. "This place solidified the rise of the Great Void Sect. If not for the natural physical changes in the world over time, and the flow of spiritual energy in the Divine Lands became more mixed up, the Great Void Sect would have been even more powerful than they are today."

"Even so, during the beginning of the Modern Age, the power of the Great Void Sect erupted once before and seemed like they were about to regain their former glory. However, as fate would have it, they encountered the Hades Emperor and his descent into the Greater World."

"This place is the birthplace of the Supreme Heavenly Mirror…" Wang Lin\'s eyes closed into slits as he stared ahead at the scene projected by the Small Divine Lands World. He scrutinized the lonely mountain before him that was bare and had no white clouds surrounding it.

Lin Feng nodded his head and said, "You\'re right. The most important effect of the battle that ended the Primordial Age could be said to be the separation of the Greater World into the Divine Lands and the Barren Expanses, and could also be said to be the birth of the Supreme Heavenly Mirror."

Many things were no longer verifiable and were lost over the long course of history. Even if there were sects that had existed since the Antiquity Age until today, many secrets were still lost over time.

Following the passage of their ancestors, there were some secrets and myths known to their successors but only in bits and pieces.

The Cang Heaven Blade and the Xuan Heaven Seal had been Mahayana-level magic items since the Antiquity Age. They were allowed to participate in multiple gatherings and obtained great volumes of information and managed to survive until today – this was the reason why they were more knowledgeable about the secrets of the olden days.

Lin Feng had heard stories before, but rumors were rumors and were unconfirmed until the day he spoke with the Cang Heaven Spell Blade and the Xuan Heaven Seal when he finally managed to allay some of his doubts.

For example, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror was not a magic item forged by cultivators of the Great Void Sect. More accurately put, it wasn\'t a magic treasure created by anyone.

The number-one magic treasure of the Divine Lands was born naturally, nurtured by the Heavens and born as a product and representation of the Will and Spirit of the entire Grand Celestial World.

This was dissimilar to the light circle that was still oscillating inside the Yin-Yang Sea, and neither was it similar to Zhu Yi\'s Higan Golden Bridge. The Golden Bridge\'s embryo originated from the Yingzhou Celestial Mountain, which channeled the power of the Ying Sea to create it. The Supreme Heavenly Mirror, on the other hand, was born and gestated from the power of the entire Greater World.

During the great battle that ended the Primordial Age, the reason that caused the Greater World to split into the Divine Lands and the Barren Expanses was not only due to the extreme powers of the Great Void Holy Man and the First Dragon – the more substantial reason was that the Supreme Heavenly Mirror, which was still under development, had been triggered.

Following the birth of the Supreme Heavenly Mirror, the Greater World finally broke apart into two separate ones.

Due to the epic battles between Emperor Jue and the Great Void Holy Man and the others, the Supreme Heavenly Mirror was born prematurely. Otherwise, if this magic treasure had been allowed into the world by natural causes, its power would have been unimaginable.

Of course, in that case, then nobody would have been able to truly assume control over this magic item – unless that person could transcend the entire Grand Celestial World.

The location of the birth of the Supreme Heavenly Mirror was the Great Void Sect\'s current home turf – Mount Baiyun.

It was for this very reason that the Great Void Holy Man chose this place to establish his sect, and officially set the Great Void Sect on their journey towards eternal glory.

Back then, Mount Baiyun was still the center of all spiritual energy flows inside the Divine Lands, and was the concentration spot.

However, too many unpredictable events occurred in the world and following the unstoppable passage of time, the flow of spiritual energy in the Greater World started to change. It no longer flowed towards a central point, but became more spread out like it was now.

During the Antiquity Age, Mount Baiyun was undoubtedly the center of the Divine Lands. This center wasn\'t referring to the physical center of the world, but the focal point of all spiritual energy I the Divine Lands, and the place where spiritual energy was the most voluminous.

When Emperor Xia forged the Crucible of the Divine Lands during the Antiquity Age, he incorporated the dense principles of the entire Divine Lands into the magic item. This was the reason by the Small Divine Lands World that was created by this magic item naturally travelled towards the \'center\'– the same place that spiritual energies naturally travelled to during the Antiquity Age.

Therefore, Lin Feng and the Zheng Yi Holy Man did the same thing and directed their respective disciples towards the core of the Crucible of the Divine Lands, and sent them to the bottom of the Mount Baiyun inside the Small Divine Lands World.

Yang Tie, Zhou Yuncong, Liu Xiafeng and Li Xingfei orientated themselves and quickly realized that somebody had been here before them.

Some of them had found their own way here, and some were sent by Lin Feng and the Zheng Yi Holy Man.

Upon closer inspection, the cultivators from the Celestial Sect of Wonders and the Great Void Sect were almost all present.
