Chapter 1138 - Everyone (2/2)
Fang Xingjian did not care about these. Instead, he asked, “How is your infiltration of the higher realm going? Have Adam and the Formidable Divine King come as well? How much do you guys understand about the Gate of Destinies?”
Hearing the mention of the Gate of Destinies, the Second Prince could not help but frown, and his gaze deepened.
“I obtained Old Ancestor Adam’s and the Formidable Divine King’s legacies by chance and thus came chasing after them, infiltrating this world and attaining breakthroughs in the Divine level.
“With your talent, I initially thought that you would definitely be able to surpass me in the future. When that time came, you’d be a great help in the battle against the Central Continent. By the looks of it, your progress is a lot faster than I expected.
“As for the Gate of Destinies, you must have thought that it’s fake when you first heard it, right?”
Fang Xingjian raised his brows. “Oh? Is it actually real?”
“To tell you the truth, I’ve already become one of the ten direct disciples in the Flying Celestial Sect. I’ve also found out some inside news,” the Second Prince explained. “The Ancient Heavenly Court is a powerful influence that expended a tremendous amount of resources to create the Gate of Destinies. They even caused the Central Continent’s resources to become scarce. This was the reason why the world was divided into the higher and lower realms, with many experts focusing the resources in the higher realm to cultivate.
“The foundational reason why the world was divided into two was that there was insufficient resources. It was a necessity to gather most of the resources and provide them to a minority of people for their cultivation. This will maintain control of the number of cultivators as well as the depletion of resources.”
Fang Xingjian nodded. He finally understood why this world was divided into two realms, and why the higher realm had such a careful attitude toward the Central Continent, unwilling to destroy the environment there.
The Second Prince continued, “And as the oldest tier nine Divine level expert in this world, the Venerable Master Zhai Xing has really obtained the Ancient Heavenly Court’s legacies. It’s highly likely that he was an expert from the Ancient Heavenly Court back then who was behind in this world and obtained a piece of fragment to the Gate of Destinies.
“That’s why he wanted to amass the higher realm’s resources and recreate the Gate of Destinies.”
Fang Xingjian nodded and asked, “What effect does the Gate of Destinies actually have? Why would it leave behind fragments, and where did the Ancient Heavenly Court’s people go?”
“Who knows?” The Second Prince shook his head. “The Venerable Master Zhai Xing is probably the only one who knows about these. The only thing we can do is to try to delay the progress and then find ways to probe for information.
Back then, the Gate of Destinies’ creation destroyed the entire planet’s environment, forcing other martial experts to use Spatial Translocation and create another realm for cultivating martial arts. This showed how great its depletion was.
“I’m worried that Venerable Master Zhai Xing will set his sights on Miracle World.”
Fang Xingjian did not say anything. He did not plan on telling the Second Prince that he had chased the Venerable Master Zhai Xing back to the higher realm and that it was impossible for the Venerable Master Zhai Xing to return.
At the very least, before he had completely killed Venerable Master Zhai Xing, Fang Xingjian was not planning on divulging any information.
It was because he had no idea what attitude the Second Prince and the other experts—including Saint Adam and the Formidable Divine King—had toward the higher realm and toward Miracle World after having stayed in the higher realm for so long. He did not know if there were already people who had submitted to the higher realm’s culture, background, and martial arts and were now devoted to the higher realm’s immortal sects.
“Oh, right. Adam and the Formidable Divine King have come this time around as well. I’ll bring you to meet them.”
Fang Xingjian followed the Second Prince, and the group went to another area where a group of men and ladies were gathered.
The Second Prince introduced via voice transmission, “This is the Flying Celestial Sect’s lower section, the Four Directional City. However, we’ve already infiltrated and taken over a large part of it. The City Lord and the Deputy City Lord are Adam and the Formidable Divine King.”
Fang Xingjian was struck with understanding, and he raised his head and looked over. He saw that deep within the depths of the people from the Four Directional City, there were two young men who sat on the left and right of a jade table.
