No matter what kind of world it was, there was always a pillar of support. This world did not achieve small chiliocosm, which meant it had no Origin. The World Origin was the source of support for the small chiliocosm. Since there was no small chiliocosm in this small world, then there must be some other treasures which support this world. Or else, this world would have been destroyed ages ago.
Minghe shot a glance and saw the center of the small world. A giant building, or rather a giant complex floated in the center. Minghe approached its giant gate. The board on the gate said "Southern Gate".
Minghe was not surprised at the words. It was exactly like the Heavenly Court in Untainted Land, 36 Gates of Heaven lay within, and buildings were shrouded in the ethereal air. Golden lights flashed, and strips of air formed purple haze. The crimson gauze clothing glittered, the jade pins, jewelry shoes, purple ribbons, and gold medals all shone glamorously.
Before stepping in, Minghe had felt the vital force of the Heavenly Court. It slightly different from that of Untainted Land Heavenly Court. The Untainted Land Heavenly Court was created by the Way of Heaven, shrouded in tactical formations. After all, it was Incarnation of Will of Heaven. However, the Court in front of Minghe was apparently Incarnation of a Highest Grade primordial supreme treasure. Moreover, the treasure must have been turning into a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos.
Though the vital force was familiar, it raised more questions in Minghe. "Untainted Land is intact, but why does Heavenly Court appear here?" Since seals and forbidden formations in mountains were old and ancient, this was not the Untainted Land Heavenly Court. Other than the Incarnation, both treasures were exceedingly alike.
With just the image alikeness was too similar, and with the vital force emitting familiarity, Minghe entered the Gates filled with questions. "Instead of straightening the confusion outside, why not just go in and find out the truth?" Despite the fact that this Heavenly Court was a Spiritual Treasure of Chaos before evolving into Primordial Supreme Treasure, it did not have the capacity to trap him inside.
Inside the gates was another new world. Certain building structures were identical to the Court in Untainted Land but the only difference was there were Spiritual Medicines growing there. These medicines only grew in the Battlefield of God and Demon. The herbal fragrance floating through the air was utmost tempting. Just by the scent, Minghe could feel that he was growing stronger.
This was really surprising. It was a fertile land where much Spiritual Medicine grew. Judging from the area of cultivation, someone must have carefully cultivated it, but whom did this Heavenly Court belong to? Minghe entered the gates for quite a while yet he had not felt any signs of life. Unless the owner has passed on.
Minghe continued on without seeing a soul. In such a large palace, without the plants, it would be lifeless. When he finally walked to the 36th Gates of Heaven, he saw the standing Divine Wind Palace. Though it was splendid everywhere, there was something weird about this place.
Then, Minghe stepped inside The Divine Wind Palace, only to see a mirror above the throne. He recognized it was a Haotian Mirror, which was granted to Haotian by Hongjun years ago. This mirror was again the same with that in Untainted Land. But, it had differentiated itself by being a Highest Grade primordial supreme treasure. Unfortunately, the edge had been chipped.
The marks indicated an intended attack. However, Minghe was more interested in the fact that there was a Heavenly Court in the Untainted Land. The Haotian Mirror was still in the possesion of the Haotian he knows. So why was there another Heavenly Court and Haotian Mirror here?
Moreover, in Minghe's perceptions, there also was a Garden of Peaches of Immortality, where 3,600 Peento Trees had been cultivated. The same things and same vital force should emerge in two different places! Besides, Minghe had checked that he wasn't in some fantasy world.
Anyone would be confused in a weird situation like this. He walked toward the Haotian Mirror to scrutinize it closely. But, before he could make it far, the mirror shone brightly. Then, the light died down, a vague and illusory shadow was seated on the throne.
The shadow turned out to be a handsome ghost with an air of royalty; he was clad in an imperial robe. The air of royalty showed his cultivation of imperial Tao, besides, what was weirder was that he actually looked like Haotian.
Yet, Haotian couldn't compete with him in cultivation Realm. A ghost as he was, his whole body vital force was formidable. Thus, he must have been at least at Peak of Realm of The Origin, much better than the real Haotian. It seemed that Minghe's breaking in activated Haotian Mirror, summoning the ghost for some unknown reason.
When he finally stabilized, he opened its eyes, looking at Minghe. He first got slightly surprised, and then roared out. "Haha, God helps those who help themselves. Finally, a Spiritual Inheritor comes, and you're from Untainted Land."
The short sentence gave out a lot of information. Still, it was strange. Judging from his words, the ghost also came from Untainted Land. But, masters in the Land were numbered; Minghe hadn't seen anyone like this before. Not to say, becoming a ghost.
Although he had stabilized, he was still feeble and didn't seem to last long. He continued to talked about some inheritor. Ignoring the fact whether the ghost was speaking the truth or not, Minghe wanted to know what the ghost knew abouth the Battlefield of God and Demon.
As for Spiritual Inheritance, he didn't care about that. He had his own Tao. Besides, the ghost didn't succeed in its own Tao, even turned into something like this. And then, he laughed so hard that he became unstable. Minghe couldn't help asking, "May I have your name? I'm Ancestor Minghe, at your service."
Then, he stopped and said in surprise, "Ancestor Minghe? Are you Ancestor Minghe in the Ninth Period Untainted Land? Well, that's surprising. The Minghe I know couldn't compete with you. Oh, I'm the owner of Heavenly Court in the Eighth Period Untainted Land, Emperor Haotian."
"The Ninth Period? The Eighth Period? The Minghe? Emperor Haotian? He called himself Haotian and mentioned another one." Minghe couldn't help wondering about The Chaos and Untainted Land's secrets. Now, Minghe knew he was close to a big secret.
Haotian continued, "I know Fellow Taoist is in doubt as I was. Don't worry, I'll explain to you. Please be seated." Then, he waved his hand; a platform rose up in The Divine Wind Palace to the height of the throne.
Minghe seated himself on the platform. He stared at Haotian in expectation. Beforehand, Minghe had already known that this Haotian came from the Eighth Period, while he was in the Ninth Period. The gap between two Periods appealed to him.
Haotian continued, "Fellow Taoist comes from the Ninth Period, while I'm from the Eighth Period. After the Eighth Period's destruction, Great Divinity Pangu rebuilt another Untainted Land, where you come from. Naturally, there were other Lands from the first to the seventh Periods."
"You must know that the Great Divinity Pangu exterminated 3,000 Mazingers, created Heaven and Earth, and his body nourished everything. Actually, he never really died; his heart is enshrined and worshipped in Hall of Pangu. After each Untainted Land's destruction, he was reborn to develop the next Land. For years and years, he's been doing so."
Minghe was shocked to hear that. "Pangu isn't dead?" It was some news. When Wu Tribe resurrected 10 Ancestors of sorcery in Blood Sea, Minghe saw Great Divinity Pangu's heart in Hall of Pangu, even his Spiritual Thoughts had been suppressed by the heart. However, he never expected Pangu to still be alive. In that case, the power of the heart would become stronger.
Haotian saw Minghe's shock in his eyes. When he first learned the secret, Haotian was also amazed. Now it was his turn to watch someone else do the same. Then, he continued, "Great Divinity Pangu has great cultivation. He builds Untainted Lands, how will he die so easily? He has cultivation, Jade Butterfly of Fate, and so many supreme treasures; he doesn't need to apply his body to nourish everything anymore."
Everyone acknowledged the power of the Way of Heaven in Untainted Land, and knew how Great Divinity Pangu built Untainted Land even to make the Way of Heaven yet withdrawing himself from worldy affairs. Since the Way of Heaven, Pangu was already strong enough! It was hard to imagine. Moreover, no one knew why Great Divinity Pangu rebuilt Untainted Lands again and again, and what he was up to.
