Chapter 1113: The Three Realms of the Divine Path

If this was the reason, did those divine path powerhouses leave the Divine Realm because of it?

But then, where did they go?

Beyond this Divine Realm, is there another space?

Countless questions lingered in Ye Yuan's mind, refusing to dissipate.

The disappearance of the divine path powerhouses left behind far too many questions.

The deeper he probed, the greater the mystery grew.

"I once heard that the Heavenly Dao of the Divine Realm is incomplete, making it impossible to produce divine path powerhouses. Senior, is there any way to break this deadlock?" Ye Yuan asked.

"The divine path is not divinity! The divine realm is merely a title. Even a powerhouse at the Guixu Divine Realm cannot truly control the Heavenly Dao. At best, they can borrow higher-level laws. Since the divine path laws are already as they are, no one can reverse this outcome. Unless you can retrieve the missing Heavenly Dao!" the mysterious powerhouse said.

Ye Yuan's eyes flickered as he sank into deep thought.

If retrieving the missing Heavenly Dao was the only way to break through to the divine realm,

then his Inverse Dao Pill probably couldn't help him break through either.

But Ye Yuan was unwilling to give up so easily.

"Hey, junior, don't indulge in wishful thinking! If there were any way at all, those divine path powerhouses wouldn't have all vanished from the Divine Realm. Since they disappeared, it means they were at a loss and could only choose to leave!"

The mysterious powerhouse naturally saw Ye Yuan's unwillingness, but he was not the only one unwilling.

If even divine path powerhouses couldn't accomplish it, how could a mere Dao Profound realm martial artist possibly do so?

Ye Yuan did not refute the mysterious powerhouse's words but asked, "Senior, could you tell me about the divine realm?"

Seeing Ye Yuan like this, the mysterious powerhouse knew he was not giving up.

However, he did not refuse Ye Yuan and began, "The three realms of the divine path: Dongxuan, Kuitian, and Guixu! When essence, energy, and spirit merge into one, profound energy fills the body, and one perceives the Great Dao, that is Dongxuan; when the Great Dao reaches the heavens, one sees a glimpse of the Heavenly Dao through a single spot, that is Kuitian; when the Dao reaches its end, all things return to their origin, and one draws upon the supreme Heavenly Dao for one's own use, that is Guixu! The three realms of the divine path each have vast spans, and most people can only end at Dongxuan. In the ancient era when the demon race rose, countless human prodigies attained enlightenment and became gods, but only three reached the Guixu realm!"

Ye Yuan listened, his heart surging with excitement.

Such secrets were probably known to very few in the Divine Realm.

Only then did he realize that above the divine realm, there were three major realms.

The divine path was merely another beginning.

The mysterious powerhouse spoke in considerable detail, sharing his understanding of the divine realm with Ye Yuan.

Divine path powerhouses had already glimpsed the origin of the Great Dao, and every move they made was in accordance with the laws.

If Dao Profound powerhouses only had a vague sense of the laws, divine path powerhouses could draw upon the laws for their own use.

The gap between them was not measured in the slightest.

Even the lowest Dongxuan divine realm could easily annihilate a Divine King realm powerhouse using divine path laws.

These divine path laws could even be inscribed by divine path powerhouses, becoming divine inscriptions.

"Thank you for your teachings, senior. I have benefited greatly! But I still don't know who you are, senior, and what connection you have to the ancient Tianyi Sect?" Ye Yuan cupped his hands and asked.

The mysterious powerhouse said, "I am Tianli, the Black Tortoise divine beast under the command of Jue Tian Dao Ren, and also the guardian divine beast of the ancient Tianyi Sect."

"Black Tortoise divine beast!" Ye Yuan was greatly shocked. He had never expected that the seventh layer of the Blood Rain Wasteland was sealing a true divine beast!

For a hundred thousand years, true divine beasts had become legends.

The so-called divine beasts in the Divine Realm today had increasingly diluted bloodlines.

Even the mighty Azure Dragon clan could not escape this fate.

But now, Ye Yuan had actually seen a living divine beast—how could he not be astonished?

"Senior, since you are the guardian divine beast of the Tianyi Sect, how were you sealed here?" Ye Yuan asked.

Hearing this, Tianli suddenly erupted with a burst of ferocity and snorted coldly, "It's all that treacherous Zuo Zong's doing! He deserves to die!"

Mentioning Zuo Zong, Tianli gnashed his teeth, clearly hating him to the core.

It turned out that Zuo Zong was also one of the three Guixu powerhouses back then, but his strength was far inferior to Jue Tian's.

During the war between humans and demons, Zuo Zong's Yuhun Sect put in little effort, putting humanity in a passive position.

If not for Jue Tian and another human leader fighting the demons to the death, humanity would have been destroyed.

Later, when the war subsided and humanity barely won, Jue Tian and the other human leader passed away one after another, leaving Zuo Zong as the number one figure of the era.

Thus, Zuo Zong led his sect disciples and attacked the Tianyi Sect together.

This Blood Rain Wasteland was originally the Tianyi Sect's medicine garden, but Zuo Zong used his great divine power to directly connect it to the Yuhun Sect.

Zuo Zong was incredibly powerful at the time. He split the space of the Blood Rain Wasteland into seven layers, sealing each layer, and suppressed Tianli at the very bottom.

Although the Tianyi Sect still had some divine path powerhouses at the time, they were far inferior to Zuo Zong.

The strength of a Guixu powerhouse was simply beyond the comprehension of ordinary people.

"Heh heh, Jue Tian turned a blind eye to Zuo Zong's actions for the sake of humanity's overall situation. But Zuo Zong probably never dreamed that Jue Tian had long prepared a big surprise for him, waiting for him to attack the Tianyi Sect."

Speaking of this, Tianli was truly delighted.

He knew that Zuo Zong was later severely wounded by the trap Jue Tian left behind and soon fell as well.

Hearing these ancient tales, Ye Yuan's mind wandered, and he felt immense admiration for Jue Tian's deeds.

Such was humanity: they schemed against each other in peacetime, but in times of crisis, there were always righteous people who stepped forward.

Jue Tian was one such person, and so was Fang Tian.

What surprised Ye Yuan, however, was that the current Sacred Realm was actually the successor of the Yuhun Sect from a million years ago!

Truly a consistent lineage, even the despicable style was perfectly inherited.

Ye Yuan sneered inwardly.

"By the way, senior, you mentioned earlier that the Haotian Stone Tablet and the Zhuxie Divine Sword have alternative methods of use. Could you... teach me?" Ye Yuan said.

He now craved power and wished to become stronger.

Whether to kill Ji Canglan or to suppress the demon race, his current strength was far from sufficient.

As Tianli said, if these two divine artifacts could not unleash their true power, it would be a waste in his hands.

Tianli said, "Of course! As you said, the burden on your shoulders is perhaps even heavier than Jue Tian's! With the simultaneous emergence of the Holy Mother Demon Flower and Kano, even if the Heavenly Dao is incomplete, they can still use divine path laws below the divine realm! This gives them an even greater advantage!"
