Chapter 557: Chapter 398: Longevity Pavilion Makes a Move_1
Regarding the matter with Human Ancestor, Li Cheng had communicated with his father, and his father agreed with him that unless absolutely necessary, they must not do so.
After all, Human Ancestor had self-exiled into the Long River of Time in search of a different kind of immortality. If they were to bring him back, no one knew what Human Ancestor would do or what would happen.
But now, Longevity Pavilion might very well enter the Divine Realm from the Styx and definitely plans to control the Divine Realm before its evolution is complete.
At most, it would take one year for the Divine Realm to complete its evolution, and during this time, the Divine Realm would be utterly without external support!
"We'll see how it goes. If there really is no other way, we may only do that!" said Confucius Ancestor.
Li Cheng nodded. He had already left Little Junior Sister in the Supreme Realm. With her cultivation soaring, it was possible she might find Yun Kunlun.
While they spoke, they arrived in front of the passage.
Side by side, father and son entered and quickly passed through the passage.
"The boss is back!" The Heaven Escaping Divine Turtle and Mole immediately appeared, their faces full of joy.
Li Cheng nodded slightly at Er Shou, "Has there been any unusual activity?"
Er Shou shook their heads together, and the Divine Turtle said, "There haven't been any people entering the Divine Realm through here in the past few days, boss. You've come back so soon?"
"Yes, there's been a change in plans. You continue to guard here and be on the lookout for your safety."
After giving those instructions, Li Cheng and his father hurried toward the Divine Realm.
"I have no idea where in the Divine Realm the river from the Styx flows. If it's not too large, perhaps it would be possible to set up a Formation..."
Li Cheng was mid-sentence when he saw his father frown, prompting him to ask in confusion, "Father, what's wrong?"
Confucius Ancestor reached out to grab Li Cheng, staring intently ahead, "Since you've come, why not show yourself?"
"Heh, I would not have guessed that another Heaven Supreme would emerge in the Human Ancestor's Divine World apart from Yun Kunlun, congratulations indeed!" an amused voice rang out.
Li Cheng's brow furrowed, "It's him!"
This voice belonged to the person who had attempted to rob him and Dan Zhen the last time!
"As I thought, Longevity Pavilion has already entered the Divine Realm, this is bad!" Li Cheng's brows knotted together.
If this Black Robed Man had arrived, what about those dozens of individuals previously calculated? They too, must have arrived!
With his hands behind his back, Confucius Ancestor stood as the Haoran Justice Air suddenly surged through this expanse of Space, sweeping across countless stars, "You're not here to congratulate me, are you, friend?"

The Black Robed Man materialized, his aura fiercely pressing upon Confucius Ancestor, "Ha ha, you're right. I came to prevent you from going to the mainland of the Divine Realm!"
Their auras clashed in the void, causing Space to twist violently, yet it remained intact under their control.
"You need to hurry back. Given the current situation, I hope there's still a chance to summon Human Ancestor," Confucius Ancestor telepathically communicated.
Li Cheng silently nodded and teleported away, heading straight for the Starry Sky Divine Road.
"Supreme Li, you're particularly important to us—don't leave this time!" The Black Robed Man reached out his hand, unleashing a God-like hand that covered the sky and roared toward him, attempting to capture Li Cheng.
However, Confucius Ancestor reached out as well, cutting through the Black Robed Man's Divine Power with Haoran Justice Air, "You're trying to catch my son in front of me? Do you think I'm made of clay?"
Combat was imminent, but Li Cheng did not linger, traveling through the Starry Sky Divine Road to teleport toward the Divine Realm.
Although his father had only recently reached the Heaven Supreme Realm, this was his home ground. With the help of The Pearl of Chaos Life and Death, Li Cheng believed his father would not be at a disadvantage.
The urgent matter was to return to the Divine Realm to find Bai Qingming.
Because Li Cheng had just tried, he was already unable to contact Bai Qingming!
Either Bai Qingming had met with misfortune or he had entered the Long River of Time!
Soon enough, Li Cheng returned to the Divine Realm, relieved to see that the Formation covering the One Hundred and Eight Mansions was still intact.
In the Divine Court, Chaos Yuan Great Venerable looked up at the sky with a solemn expression, "Netherworld Ancestor has gone to the Long River of Time; I do not know if it is still in time."
Li Cheng appeared beside Chaos Yuan Great Venerable, "The Formation looks undisturbed. What's the situation now?"
Chaos Yuan Great Venerable turned his gaze back and shook his head, "Netherworld Ancestor said that over thirty Heaven Supreme powerhouses have descended, but they're not in a hurry to break through the Formation. Instead, they have dispersed throughout the Divine Realm, seemingly in search of something."
"Faced with this situation, Netherworld Ancestor had no choice but to enter the Long River of Time to seek Human Ancestor, hoping you would understand," he added.
Li Cheng nodded. At this point, indeed, the only option was to find Human Ancestor.
But what exactly was the Longevity Pavilion looking for by dispersing throughout the Divine Realm?
"Junior Brother, what's the situation in the Supreme Realm? Can't find any reinforcements?" Chaos Yuan Great Venerable inquired.
Li Cheng sighed helplessly, "Previously, it was the Hunting Emperor Sect that was targeting our Divine Realm. Later, we found out that Longevity Pavilion was supporting them. Now that Hunting Emperor Sect is essentially gone, Longevity Pavilion has directly intervened."
He explained the situations of Hunting Emperor Sect and Longevity Pavilion. Chaos Yuan Great Venerable's expression grew even more serious.
"Based on what you've said, Longevity Pavilion is likely trying to find the Spirit of the World!" Chaos Yuan Great Venerable stated.
Li Cheng's brow furrowed, "Find the Spirit of the World? Does Longevity Pavilion intend to control the Divine Realm using the Spirit of the World?"
Even if the Divine Realm were to become an existence on the same level as the Supreme Realm, if Longevity Pavilion controlled the Spirit of the World, it would effectively control the entire Human Ancestor's Divine World.
This was the most effective method to control the Divine Realm, but it was also the most difficult.
Because the Spirit of the World was hiding somewhere evolving, and if it were startled, it could appear elsewhere in the Divine Realm in an instant. Even for Heaven Supremes, it was nearly impossible to capture it.
However, with over thirty Heaven Supreme powerhouses from Longevity Pavilion, if they found where the Spirit of the World was hiding, the Spirit of the World would likely have little chance to escape.
