Chapter 2891: Golden City

Chapter 2891: Chapter 2891: Golden City

After Fang Bai heard what the elder said, he finally gained some understanding about the Chaos Realm and the Twelve Principal Gods.

Broadly speaking, the Chaos Realm also belongs to the Divine Realm, and the Twelve Principal Gods, in the hierarchy of experts within the Divine Realm, are the pinnacle of existence, possessing invincible power and supreme authority.

Even a dignified Divine Emperor, who can shatter a gigantic star with a punch, is like an ant facing a Dashan, utterly powerless against the Twelve Principal Gods.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the Twelve Principal Gods gently blow a breath, ordinary experts in the Divine Realm would be reduced to ashes and cease to exist.

Although the Twelve Principal Gods reside within the Chaos Realm, they are aware of all matters in the Divine Realm. Together, they oversee the Divine Realm and the Chaos Realm, maintaining the balance and stability between the two realms.

However, no one expected the Dark Principal God among the Twelve Principal Gods to harbor ambitions, wanting to overthrow the two realms and hold dominion.

In response to this move by the Dark Principal God, the other eleven Principal Gods had varied reactions.

Some strongly opposed it, resolutely resisting.

Some secretly reached an agreement with the Dark Principal God: you don’t offend me, and I won’t offend you.

However, those opposed were in the minority, and most remained silent.

To those silent Principal Gods, no matter what the Dark Principal God does, as long as it doesn’t infringe on their interests, all will be well, but if it does, it will lead to a bitter confrontation.

Thus, the current targets of the Dark Principal God’s attacks are a few opponents, while he refrains from touching the interests of the silent ones, and he tries to appease them as much as possible.

Though the adversaries number a few, the Dark Principal God is not fighting alone; he summons a constant stream of Star-Devouring Beasts through the black holes of the Purple Crystal Sea in the Divine Realm, entering the Chaos Realm through the Chaos Gate, to assist him in battle. He also recruits the Dark Demon Clan from the Divine Realm to serve under him.

According to the elder, the Dark Principal God now has a certain advantage in the fights against several other Principal Gods, while those few warring Principal Gods are temporarily in defensive positions.

Therefore, the Chaos Realm seems peaceful and harmonious for now, but is actually a brewing storm beneath the surface.

The Golden City is governed by the Golden Principal God among the Twelve Principal Gods. Currently, the battles between the Dark Principal God and a few other Principal Gods have not affected this area, so the warriors here still enjoy tranquility and peace.

But according to that elder, quite a few regions in the Chaos Realm are already in turmoil. If it weren’t for the restoration of the rules of heaven and earth, at least one-fifth of the Chaos Realm would be devastated.

"Exactly how powerful are the Twelve Principal Gods?"

Fang Bai couldn’t help but ask after hearing the elder speak.

The elder thought for a moment, then raised his palm and waved at a section of stone and forest not far away, which turned to dust in response and scattered with the wind.

If those stones and trees were stars and Divine Emperors, the result of the Twelve Principal Gods taking action against them would probably be like this."

The elder said, matter-of-factly.

Fang Bai gasped, exchanging glances with the powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace, where they saw only shock and horror in each other’s eyes.

They knew that the Twelve Principal Gods surpassed the Divine Emperors, but never imagined the disparity in strength between the Divine Emperor and the Twelve Principal Gods was so vast—like the difference between heaven and earth.

In the eyes of experts in the Divine Realm, even a dignified Divine Emperor is akin to an ant compared to the Twelve Principal Gods, and as for those of the Divine King Realm and Divine Emperor Realm, they may be as insignificant as dust?

"The power of the Dark Principal God is currently rising; remember not to provoke the experts of the Dark Clan when you walk the Chaos Realm, or you risk calamity,"

The elder kindly reminded.

Fang Bai nodded, expressing gratitude to the elder, then roamed around the Golden City with the powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace.

Fang Bai discovered that all beings in this Golden City carried a chaotic aura, much stronger than those in the Divine Realm. He thought that this peaceful and secure Golden City, rich in powerful figures and protected by the Golden Principal God, was a suitable place for cultivation.

In the Divine Realm, they feared nothing as long as they didn’t encounter a Divine Emperor, but in the Chaos Realm, they appeared far too weak. Without a clear aim, they might encounter fierce experts or dangerous situations.

If they accidentally encounter experts from the Dark Clan, they might even lose their lives.

However, supreme figures like the Dark Principal God always stand above, overlooking the gods, and they have no chance of meeting him.

"Let’s practice here in the Golden City until your realms reach the Divine Emperor Realm before leaving. By then, even if you encounter a Divine Emperor Realm expert, you will have a degree of self-protection."

Fang Bai said to the powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace.

When the realm and cultivation level of the powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace reach the Divine Emperor Realm, his strength should also progress further, and with the gods united, handling a Divine Emperor Realm expert shouldn’t be a problem.

In this Chaos Realm, where Divine Emperors are as common as dogs and Divine Kings roam freely, only by reaching the Divine Emperor Realm can one avoid being oppressed and not be hindered at every step.

Especially in the current situation where several Principal Gods are at war in the Chaos Realm, possessing the strength of the Divine Emperor Realm is the capital for survival.

Like the elder just now, possessing mid-level Divine Emperor Realm cultivation already counts as a formidable figure in the Divine Realm, capable of moving freely. But in the Chaos Realm, one can only stay obediently in the Golden City to concentrate on cultivation, not daring to venture out easily.

What troubled Fang Bai is that in the Golden City, if one wants to rent a Temple, using Divine Crystals or other cultivation resources mined in the Divine Realm wouldn’t suffice. Only the Beast Cores from flying Divine Beasts of the Chaos Realm or cultivation resources of equivalent value can be used.

Fang Bai recalled that the Star-Devouring Beasts carried chaotic aura, so he took out a few Beast Cores of Star-Devouring Beasts at the Divine Emperor Realm hunted in the Divine Realm, to inquire if they could be used, unexpectedly they were indeed useful.

For experts of the Chaos Realm, using the Beast Cores from Chaos Realm flying Divine Beasts for cultivation is more effective than directly absorbing the chaotic aura pervasive in the Chaos Realm’s heaven and earth.

Moreover, if Chaos Divine Pills refined from Chaos Divine Medicine were used for cultivation, it would be even better.

Unfortunately, the Beast Cores from the Star-Devouring Beasts that Fang Bai possessed were too few, only enough to rent one Temple, with a rental period of five years.

Five years, for these powerful ones, is merely one or two secluded cultivation periods.

Moreover, squeezing dozens of powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace into one Temple isn’t very comfortable.

But for now, they have no choice.

"I heard there are many flying Divine Beasts outside the Golden City. After five years, let’s team up to hunt some down and acquire their Beast Cores, then we can extend our rental period. In short, you mustn’t leave the Golden City until you’re in the Divine Emperor Realm,"

Fang Bai said to the powerful ones from the Emperor’s Palace.
