“When the Celestial Court was first established, there was an Ancient Celestial Court. However, the Ancient Celestial Court was very cruel and only respected the strong. The weak only deserved to be exploited. Moreover, the Ancient Celestial Court had other secrets that caused public grievances to boil. Countless experts united and various major powers joined forces. The Monster Clan, Demonic sects, Hell, Buddhist sects, and so on. Under the leadership of a few young Emperors, they overthrew the Ancient Celestial Court.”
“After that, on the ruins of the Ancient Celestial Court, a few Emperors declared the establishment of a new Celestial Court and built countless huge cities. In these cities, no one was allowed to attack or fly. Everyone in the city had to be treated equally. They also signed a peace treaty with the major powers to allow everyone to develop peacefully. That period of time was known as the Peaceful Era.”
“This is the origin of the Celestial Court. The original intention of the Celestial Court was to allow cultivators of the Immortal Plane to control their own destiny, providing survival soil and upward channels for the weak. The young Emperors achieved this.”
The head of the Zhang Family looked at Li Qingshan and said softly.
“In the younger days, ideals are the greatest, but few can persevere unchanged,” Li Qingshan said.
“That’s right. Very few people can persevere unchanged. After the Peaceful Era, the Changsheng Emperor was the first to fall. After that, all the Emperors began to waver. Even the most idealistic Gouchen Emperor some time and handed over the power of the Celestial Court to the Central Jade Emperor, who is also my ancestor,” The head of the Zhang Family said.
“Did the Changsheng Emperor really die from the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?” Li Qingshan asked curiously.
“I don’t know. There’s no record of it, nor there is any record within the Changsheng Emperor Clan. After so many years, there’s only one explanation, so it’s the only answer.” The head of the Zhang Family shook his head.
“After the Changsheng Emperor died, the empowerment of the Gouchen Emperor, and the succession of the Jade Emperor, the Celestial Court became bloated and rigid from then on. There’s no hope left.” Li Qingshan stared at the head of the Zhang family and said directly.
He was criticizing the ancestor, and Li Qingshan didn’t know if the head of the Zhang family would be angry.
The head of the Zhang family didn’t get angry. He said with a complicated expression, “I just said that with the passage of time and the death of the Changsheng Emperor, the thoughts of the Emperors have changed. The Jade Emperor is the most obvious one. He clings to the past, he likes the old system, he holds a high position, and his thoughts have undergone tremendous changes. He doesn’t like the emergence of experts in the Immortal Plane anymore.”
The more Li Qingshan listened, the weirder his expression became.
He seemed to recognize this character.
“Not like the emergence of experts in the Immortal Plane?” Li Qingshan looked at the head of the Zhang Family strangely and asked, “Could it be that in the past 10,000 years, no one has broken through to the Emperor Realm in the Immortal Plane, all because of your ancestor?”
The head of the Zhang Family looked at Li Qingshan in surprise and asked, “How do you know that?”
“I know someone who shares the same idea as your ancestor. It’s just that he’s not as powerful as your ancestor,” Li Qingshan said strangely.
The person he was talking about was the White Dragon King of the Human World.
Back then, he had also set up an ancient array that imprisoned the spiritual Qi and Great Path of the Human World, preventing countless experts from breaking through to the Great Venerable Realm.
Li Qingshan had thought that he was alone in this kind of eccentric idea and that others wouldn’t have it again.
Unexpectedly, upon arriving in the Immortal Plane, there was still another one, and it was even at the Emperor Realm. It was simply an eye-opener.
“Wait a minute, the Immortal Plane is so vast, how did your ancestor manage it, and still silently? How did you know?” Li Qingshan thought about it carefully. There were many loopholes and doubts in this.
“Most importantly, this is your ancestor. Instead of supporting him, you’re telling me this and even inviting me to the Celestial Court. What do you want to do?” Li Qingshan’s eyes were blazing as he stared at the head of the Zhang Family. He couldn’t figure out what the head of the Zhang Family was up to.
“Do I have to support my ancestor?” The head of the Zhang Family asked Li Qingshan in return.
Li Qingshan was startled, looking at the head of the Zhang Family, extremely surprised, saying, “You want to rebel against your Patriarch?”
The head of the Zhang Family shook his head and said, “It’s not rebellion, it’s just not agreeing with his path.”
“Do you want to hear my story?” The head of the Zhang Family asked.
“I’m all ears.” Li Qingshan was filled with interest. He was very curious about the experiences of the head of the Zhang Family, who held a high position.w
“Actually, I didn’t plan to be the family’s master in the beginning. I was born in a collateral branch and no one supported me. Although I’m a genius myself, among the descendants of the Emperor Clan, it’s all about the strength of bloodlines. So I wasn’t favored, had few resources, and didn’t have much presence.”
“I didn’t care much, as long as I could progress. Others might have endless resources, but their cultivation speed wasn’t faster than mine.”
“Until I met Taoist Dragon. He was a genius in the truest sense, far surpassing me.”
“Originally, I was just muddling through, without much ambition, just thinking about how to get stronger. But watching Taoist Dragon boldly reforming under immense pressure, wanting to remove the Celestial Court’s bad habits, I was greatly impressed. I began to study more profound things, I began to have my own persistence, and I understood the problems of the Celestial Court.”
“The biggest problem with the Celestial Court is that the powerful Emperors are not managing it. They have other pursuits, forgetting their original intentions and treating all living beings as insignificant.”
“The Emperors didn’t care, and the descendants of the Emperor Clan expanded crazily, breaking the balance, and turning the Celestial Court into their own private power. They only thought about their own family’s affairs, completely forgetting the original intention of the Celestial Court, which was to shelter all under heaven and bring joy to the common people.”
