Chapter 846 — The Heavenly Palace Under the Dao Ancestor's Rule
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 2 of 5
After a moment he adjusted to the blinding light and looked into the pillar.
The phantom images of the Ancient Star Gods, transformed from the rune marks on the slips, were refracted through certain wondrous structures inside the pillar. Within the Venerable Lord of Heaven's body they became points of light, which gradually converged to form the Primordial Fetus Divine Treasury.
After the Primordial Fetus Divine Treasury formed, the Five Luminaries Divine Treasury formed next, with a phantom image of an Ancient Star God on each of the five luminary stars of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth. Then came the Six Realms Divine Treasury: the Earth Mother Primordial Lady and Primordial Wood formed within the light, and dragon veins, phoenix nests, mountain gods, river gods, and other lesser Ancient Star Gods, great and small, each took their places.
Then came the Seven Stars Divine Treasury: the sun, the moon, the stars, and the Milky Way emerged, the Great Sun Star Lord and the Lunar Star Lord each appeared within the sun and moon, and the three hundred sixty celestial stars and their proper deities appeared upon the stars and constellations of the Milky Way.
And the stars, the Milky Way, and the constellations together constructed the phantom image of the Heavenly Lord, forming the Heaven-Human Divine Treasury!
Shen Mu looked further. Below was the Life and Death Divine Treasury: the Nether Capital emerged, and the Earth Lord stood in the darkness beneath the Primordial Capital.
Then came the Divine Bridge Divine Treasury, with a divine bridge leading straight to the Heavenly Palace!
Shen Mu looked toward the Heavenly Palace, and his mind was badly shaken, for more light points formed from rune marks were constructing an incomparably grand Heavenly Palace within the Venerable Lord of Heaven's brow. It was not one Heavenly Palace, but thirty-six Heavenly Palaces! Not only were there thirty-six Heavenly Palaces, there were also seventy-two treasure halls!
This was a complete Heavenly Court! Only, the complexity of this Heavenly Court was beyond imagination, built from the Great Dao runes of the great Ancient Star Gods.
Even the Heavenly Emperor was merely an Ancient Star God seated in the Lingxiao Hall! Leaving aside the Heavenly Court, just the seven great Divine Treasuries alone were vastly different from the Divine Treasuries of the world's Divine Ability practitioners.
The Divine Treasuries within the Venerable Lord of Heaven's body encompassed the Great Dao runes of the Heavenly Lord, the Earth Mother, the Earth Lord, and other Ancient Star Gods, and their complexity far surpassed the Divine Treasuries of today's Divine Ability practitioners. Yet even such complex Divine Treasuries were as nothing compared to the Heavenly Court! One could imagine how complex and meticulous the Heavenly Court the Dao Ancestor had constructed within the Venerable Lord of Heaven's body must be.
If this method spread, it would not overturn the cultivation systems of the world today but would greatly perfect them!
"Did the Dao Ancestor organize these things in the Heavenly Court's Archive Pavilion for the use of the Heavenly Court's powerhouses?
" Shen Mu was dazed.
The scene in the Archive Pavilion was too shocking, yet it was not simply a matter of perfecting the Divine Treasury cultivation system and the Heavenly Palace cultivation system. These Ancient Star Gods whose Dao mysteries had been fully comprehended — any who were disobedient would likely be replaced in the future!
The Heavenly Lord, the Earth Lord — they too would probably be the same.
But what puzzled Shen Mu was: why the Venerable Lord of Heaven?
"Actually, the rune marks on the highest tier could have taken the form of anyone.
Why the Venerable Lord of Heaven? " He was somewhat bewildered.
