Chapter 1334: Origin of the Anomaly
e sufficient.It's a pity—just a little bit short. If it weren't for him messing things up, I would have succeeded in a few more months.Breakthrough!Shen Changqing keenly heard the two words.The moment...This time.
Shen Changqing perceived that he was no longer being misled, and easily found the ancient continent. When he stepped into the sect, his tense mind finally eased a few points.

But thinking of the scene he had seen in the vast expanse of heaven and earth earlier, Shen Changqing's face darkened again.
"The Underworld Gate is the root cause of this anomaly. Normally, the Underworld and the Celestial Heavens are non-interfering with each other, and spirits from the Underworld shouldn't enter the Celestial Heavens."
Now the Netherworld Gate has appeared in the heavens. Those powerful beings who disappeared and fell, it is likely they all perished within the Netherworld.
"So far, the Nether Gate has not fully opened. But once it does open and the spirits enter the heavens, everything will be swept away!"
The number of powerful beings in the underworld is immeasurable.
Since the opening of the heavens and earth, Netherworld has always existed. Almost all fallen strong individuals either fell into Netherworld, reincarnated, or dwelled within it.
Nowadays, the heavens have gone through a great tribulation and fallen into decline. They can no longer be compared to the ancient times.
No one knows what the underworld is like.
If the Netherworld remains as prosperous as in ancient times, or even more terrifying, then once the Netherworld strikes the heavens, the heavens will be utterly defenseless.
Then.
Shen Changqing thought of other places again.
“In the past, the Netherworld and the heavens were completely separate. The heavens did not allow spirits from the Netherworld to set foot within them. However, with the appearance of the Netherworld Gate, it indicates that the rules of the heavens are undergoing a change.”
In that case, perhaps one day the limitations of the celestial rules will also disappear completely, and everything from ancient times will reappear...
The limitations of the Heavenly Rules have vanished, this conjecture that Shen Changqing has always had.
After all, since the rules of heaven could change after the ancient cataclysm, they could also change again now.
When that time comes, the Heavenly Dao will no longer be suppressed. Gods and Emperors will be able to freely enter all heavens. This is not good news.
The only good news is that these are all just guesses for now, nothing has actually happened, and there is still time to buffer.
“Let’s put aside the matter of the Heavenly Rules for now. The appearance of the Underworld Gate is a pressing issue at hand. If the undead from the Underworld launch a massive invasion of Heaven, it will be very difficult to resist.”
It is possible that the myriad gods and divine clans may not be fully aware of this matter, but there are countless powerful individuals within the Divine Temple. It wouldn't be surprising if they could deduce the heavenly secrets through this.
Shen Changqing fell into deep thought.
The Celestial Gods were unaware of the existence of the Netherworld Gate, and he had little reason to suspect it.
After all, any cultivator who steps into the celestial void may be blinded by the Netherworld Gate, ultimately entering the Netherworld and perishing utterly.
From the power that obscures perception, it is utterly beyond the capabilities of current cultivators to withstand.
When one's cultivation reaches the level of Shen Changqing, they unconsciously arrive at the doorstep of the Underworld. This goes without saying for others.
To remain unaffected by this force, one must either cultivate awareness to a degree that surpasses even powerful deities, or wield absolute power capable of shattering it.

Since Shen Changqing couldn't achieve the former, he used the second thought to dispel the influence of the Netherworld Gate on himself.
From the experience of interacting with the Underworld Gate, it seems that to break through this veil obscuring perception, one would need power at least on par with a deity at their peak.
As for the undead behind the Netherworld, their power is incredibly formidable, enough to rival even ordinary celestial deities.
Such power would be fatal to any other god.
Heavenly Palace.
Shen Changqing summoned all the clan elders, and the imperial families who were affiliated with Tianzong.
The Bei Li clan!
The Tianluo clan!
The Purple Cloud Clan!
Tianwu Clan!
The Bi Xuan clan!
Ten Serpent Clan!
The Ancient God Clan!
As the Heavenly Sect grew stronger and stronger, many forces became affiliated with it. Besides the clans and divine races mentioned above, there were also many powerful clans with only a Divine Realm expert as their leader.
Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!
But unlike them, these powerful clans didn't have a God King to preside over them, so they weren't eligible to establish a lineage in the Heavenly Sect.
Here is the translated text:
To establish a lineage and open up a path in Tianzong, one would need at least the strength of a Divine King. Only then would there be a possibility of passing on teachings.
After all, Tianzong now has quite a few disciples who are simply the followers of Daoist Divine King. For an ordinary cultivator who hasn't reached the level of Divine King to establish a lineage within the sect is utterly laughable.
“The Sect Master summoned us all here today. Is there something the matter”
The Python Emperor asked with a subtle expression.
For so many years, this was the first time he had seen Tianzong summon so many powerful individuals from different races with such seriousness.
Although the other tribal kings didn't speak, their gazes were all fixed on Shen Changqing, their faces full of bewilderment.
Shen Changqing said lightly, "Over the past few years, there have been many changes in the heavens. I believe all races have noticed this. A while ago, I happened to travel through the heavens and was able to see the root of the change."
The root of the change!
As soon as these words were spoken, the expressions of all the cultivators present changed.
Heaven-Tiger Emperor spoke in a deep voice: "Nowadays, many powerful figures from various heavens have disappeared, even the top divine masters among the Divine Clan have fallen silently."
"Now that the Sect Master has found the root of the anomaly, can he tell us what exactly is causing it"
Over the past few years, the myriad races of the heavens have been filled with unease. Even among the Bei Li clan, many cultivators have entered the void of the heavens, and ultimately there has been no news of their whereabouts.
Its fall was silent and without a trace, leaving no sign of its whereabouts.

Even cultivators spread rumors that this celestial anomaly swept across all races, making it impossible for all beings to escape the catastrophe. Even if the pinnacle gods entered the heavens, they would meet their end.
Now that Shen Changqing has seen the source of the anomaly and been able to retreat unharmed, it shows that the source of the anomaly is not as terrifying as rumored.
This is just like a sudden ray of light appearing in endless darkness, giving everyone hope.
Seeing the change in everyone's expressions, Shen Changqing's voice was indifferent: "The vastness of heaven and earth has been covered by a strange force. All cultivators affected by this force will have their five senses obscured, and they will come to the source of the anomaly on their own, only to be devoured by it."
The power to blind the five senses is something even the most powerful gods struggle against. This is the fundamental reason why so many cultivators perish silently and without a trace.
As for the root of this anomaly, it is truly the Netherworld Gate...

"The Gate of the Netherworld!"
The countenance of the Serpent Emperor drastically changed, and he immediately let out a gasp of shock. The other clan emperors also had their expressions shift dramatically, with fear involuntarily flashing across their faces.
Even elders like Li Kaiyang, the heavenly sect patriarchs, couldn't help but clench their fists at this moment.
Gates of the Netherworld!
None of them had expected that the root cause of this upheaval would be this.
Immediately.
Gu Huangxing said, "The Underworld Gate is rumored to be the gateway to the underworld. Heaven and the underworld have always been separate, and although some powerful figures from heaven have entered the underworld in the past, they are very rare."
Besides, while strong individuals from the heavens may enter the Underworld, there's never been a case of true undead stepping foot in the heavens. How could the gates to the Underworld suddenly appear out of nowhere
The ancient Gushan tribe boasts a long history. Only the Tianluo and Bi Xuan clans among all present forces can compare to it.
But the Tianluo clan had long fallen from grace, having been dethroned from their godlike status. The Bichen Clan's Biyun ascended to power unjustly and possessed little knowledge of the past traditions of the Bichen Clan. Naturally, he couldn't compare to Guhuang Xing in understanding these ancient secrets.
Shen Changqing nodded. "The heavens and the underworld are indeed separate, but now that the gate to the underworld has appeared, it shows that the rules of heaven have changed."
Now that the Underworld Gate has appeared, and I have even fought with the undead from the Netherworld, this invasion is far more serious than it seems!
>
Upon hearing this, the other cultivators all wore grave expressions.
Shen Changqing said, "The only thing worth celebrating right now is that the Netherworld Gate hasn't truly opened yet. Based on this situation, if the Netherworld Gate were to truly open, it should take another ten years or more."
Here is the translation:

Before this, the souls in the Netherworld should not have been able to enter the Heavenly Realms.
This is a silver lining in the bad news, at least there's a ten-year buffer.
Upon hearing this.
Biyun Kong seemed to have thought of something, and spoke, "Rumor has it that the Netherworld is where all living beings eventually return after death. In fact, all the undead in the entire Netherworld are the ancestors of all races."
If we, the cultivators of all races, were to contact the Underworld and seek the protection of these fallen ancestors, would that be able to solve this problem
As soon as these words were spoken.
>
The others were clearly taken aback.
That's right!
The dead ancestors are also ancestors!
The spirits in the underworld were once celestial cultivators, sharing a common origin with all heavenly races. If we could establish contact with these ancestors, this great tribulation might not be such a big problem.
Shen Changqing shook his head slightly: "Bihuang's statement is also possible, but this seat feels that this matter is definitely not that simple."
Please note: I've removed the unnecessary ">" from your input as they don't carry meaning in this context. If you have more text to translate, just paste it here!
I fought that underworld specter. It gave me a very uneasy feeling, always appearing from the netherworld, disconnected from the heavens. Perhaps some changes have occurred within the underworld itself.
As for the specifics of these matters, this deity cannot make a final judgment. Today's events need not be kept secret; you may spread them far and wide. Let all races prepare themselves accordingly.
Bi Yunkong's statement makes some sense, but in Shen Changqing's view, things are probably not as easy as the other party thinks.
However.
Although he fought the undead from afar, he never actually faced them. Whether or not he could connect with the undead is something else that other races should be concerned about.
Shen Changqing never pinned his safety on vague and illusory hopes. For anything, he always made the worst-case scenario plan.
If Netherworld undergoes changes and the undead launch a massive invasion of the heavens, no race will be spared.
At the moment, according to Shen Changqing’s estimation, the Netherworld Gate will officially open in ten years. What he needs to do is to improve his strength as much as possible within these ten years.
The rest of the matter, has nothing to do with him.

When Biyun and the others heard this, they all fell into deep thought, pondering over what Shen Changqing had said.
In the end, all the races departed with heavy hearts.

It wasn't long.
The news of the appearance of the Gate to the Netherworld spread like wildfire, and soon the entire celestial realm was shaken by it.
(The end) and magical way, he was also filled with admiration in his heart.If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, you wouldn't have imagined that the previous Beili Wentian was a disguise of other cultivato...
