The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1606: Chapter 1606: Mind-Shaking Tremors

Near the human territory, within the Chaos, the Heavenly Venerate Hall stood silently.

Shadows of various figures continuously appeared inside the Heavenly Venerate Hall. Among them was the shadow of Ren Jiang Venerable.

"Brother Ren Jiang, you’re eager to see us; has something important happened?" asked a shadow of a Heavenly Venerate, looking at Ren Jiang Venerable’s shadow.

Just moments ago, Ren Jiang Venerable suddenly communicated with them using a special token.

"Don’t rush to ask; let’s wait until everyone is here, and then I’ll explain in detail. You’re right; something significant has indeed happened recently." Ren Jiang Venerable turned his gaze to the Heavenly Venerate asking the question.

"Oh?"

"Has everyone arrived? Could it be that damnable Sky Demon Clan has invaded the human territory again?"

"Brother Ren Jiang, you’re still keeping us in suspense!"

The Heavenly Clan members whose shadows were reflected in the Heavenly Venerate Hall began conversing.

A few moments later, several more shadows were projected over.

"It’s almost time!" Ren Jiang Venerable slightly narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice.

"Everyone, please quiet down for a moment." Ren Jiang Venerable raised his voice.

All the shadows of the Heavenly Venerates fell silent, their attention fixated on Ren Jiang Venerable. Wuyou Venerable was also among them.

"Brother Ren Jiang, hurry and tell us! My impatient nature can’t handle the suspense." Joked one of the Heavenly Venerates.

In truth, they were discussing whether the Sky Demon Clan was launching a massive invasion of the human territory, but none considered this very likely. If the Sky Demon Clan were making a major move, the news would have already reached them. Many Heavenly Venerates monitor the actions of the Sky Demon Clan. If those Demon Kings leave the Demon Domain, it won’t escape their detection.

"Hmm, it’s about some matters concerning Sky Creation City." Ren Jiang Venerable said with a smile.

"Sky Creation City? Chaos Secret Realm perhaps? Given the timing, shouldn’t the Chaos Secret Realm have already opened and possibly ended?" A Heavenly Venerate furrowed his brow.

In this part of the Chaos, near the human territory, it’s extremely far from Sky Creation City, making it difficult to convey messages promptly, and the special tokens can’t transmit information. Whether it’s sending messages from Sky Creation City near the human territory or vice versa, someone must travel there to deliver the news.

"Brother Ren Jiang, is it possible that with the opening of the Chaos Secret Realm this time, our Human Clan has a new Heavenly Venerate?" A Heavenly Venerate quickly thought of this possibility.

If a new Heavenly Venerate has appeared, it’s certainly a significant event. Gathering everyone is justified. After all, the emergence of a new Heavenly Venerate is exceedingly rare. It might take the Human Clan billions of years for a new Heavenly Venerate to emerge.

If during the opportunity brought by the Chaos Secret Realm opening, someone from the Human Clan ascended to Heavenly Venerate, all present would be overjoyed.

"Yes, I received news not long ago that our Human Clan indeed has a new Heavenly Venerate. You should all know Zhan Yue from the Seventh Divine Domain; she has already stepped into the Heavenly Venerate Realm, becoming our Human Clan’s new Heavenly Venerate," Ren Jiang Venerable nodded.

"In addition to Zhan Yue, our Human Clan has a second Divine Emperor successfully advancing to Heavenly Venerate, which is You Lin, although You Lin unfortunately perished." Ren Jiang Venerable sighed deeply.

"What?"

"How did You Lin perish?"

"I know about You Lin; he undoubtedly possessed outstanding talent as a Martial Artist. How could he perish after advancing to Heavenly Venerate in Sky Creation City?" The faces of all Heavenly Venerates tensed upon hearing of You Lin’s demise.

"He was murdered by a Fire Worship Path Cultivator! The second chair Councilman Babie colluded with the Fire Worship Path, allowing their cultivators into Sky Creation City, intending to kill Elder Xiao Ye, Chunyu Venerable, and other human elites. You Lin Venerable died at the hands of a Fire Worship Path Cultivator," Ren Jiang Venerable said slowly.

All Heavenly Venerates paused momentarily, then revealed angered expressions, cursing Councilman Babie.

"Cursing Babie is futile because Babie is already dead." Ren Jiang Venerable remarked.

When he first heard the news, he was incredibly shocked, finding it hard to believe it was true. But the reality was indeed such. Babie, close to the Chaotic Supreme Level, truly perished, killed by Jing Yan from the human stronghold.

Previously, Ren Jiang Venerable and others suspected Demon King Kujixie was slain by Jing Yan; now, it’s almost certain that Kujixie died at Jing Yan’s hands. After Jing Yan ascended to Heavenly Venerate, his strength was already enough to kill the second chair Councilman Babie.

Ren Jiang somewhat doubts whether Jing Yan has reached the Chaos Supreme. But the details from Sky Creation City aren’t particularly clear, only vaguely mentioned, so Ren Jiang doesn’t have a clear understanding of the events that occurred in Sky Creation City.

"Babie is dead?"

All Heavenly Venerates were shocked again.

How could Babie die?

He was a strong figure close to the Chaos Supreme level and the second chair councilman of the Sky Creation City Council. Furthermore, Babie’s clan, the Yin Yang Clan, is a significant force in the Sky Creation City Alliance, second only to the Beast Clan. How could such a powerful Babie die like this?

"Everyone, please don’t interrupt me and let me finish." Ren Jiang Venerable smiled wryly.

He gets interrupted every time he says something.

"Brother Ren Jiang, go ahead; we won’t interrupt, won’t say a word before you’re done." A Heavenly Venerate assured.

The other Heavenly Venerates also nodded.

"Alright," Ren Jiang said. "Second chair Councilman Babie colluded with the Fire Worship Path cultivators, attempting to kill Elder Xiao Ye and other Human Clan Venerates. We lost You Lin Venerable and several God Emperor Level Martial Artists. Afterward, Fellow Daoist Jing Yan appeared, killing multiple Fire Worship Path cultivators and repelling them, ultimately slaying Babie from the Yin Yang Clan. Although the message wasn’t explicitly stating Fellow Daoist Jing Yan’s current realm and strength, I believe, considering what he accomplished, Jing Yan might be at the Chaotic Supreme Level."

"And now, there’s a new candidate for the Sky Creation City Council’s second chair, which is our Human Clan’s Xiao Ye. Elder Xiao Ye is now in the position of the second chair councilman. The message I received was sent by Councilman Xiao Ye himself. The message mentioned our Human Clan Venerates can recommend someone to go to Sky Creation City and serve as a council elder."

"Chunyu Venerable is also currently in Sky Creation City, but Chunyu Venerable wishes to return to the human territory side; he doesn’t want to stay in Sky Creation City."

"Everyone, we now need to recommend someone to serve as a council elder in Sky Creation City." Ren Jiang Venerable quickly summarized what he wished to say.

The shadows reflected in the Heavenly Venerate Hall were left speechless by Ren Jiang Venerable’s words, greatly shaken by what was revealed.
