Chapter 539: 4th Heart Realm

"What?!" 

"Jiu Shen killed the High Chieftain? I thought Jian w.a.n.g is the one fighting that guy!" 

The members of the Celestial Paragon Tower were shocked when they heard the loud words. 

Telu and Valir furrowed their eyebrows. 

"We can no longer stay still. That Jiu Shen actually has the power to defeat a Celestial Emperor powerhouse! We have to strike him now that he is still recovering!" Telu muttered in a solemn voice. He knew about his father's rage towards Jiu Shen, but he was unsure whether they were the same individual. After all, he had personally witnessed his father sealing Jiu Shen inside the G.o.d Sealing Tower.

Valir shook his head. "No. We can't. Jian w.a.n.g is still there and he will protect Jiu Shen if we try to a.s.sa.s.sinate him. It was a mistake to follow the Celestial Emperor's command to attack Jiu Shen at a time like this. We would be condemned by the world even if we successfully kill him!" 

Telu angrily grabbed Valir's shoulder and glared at the old man. "Old man, how dare you question the Celestial Emperor's command?!" 

Valir sighed in disappointment. Celestial Emperor Lao Gou was blinded by his rage that he failed to think about the consequences of his actions. a.s.sa.s.sinating the man who heroically led the allied army against the Infernals was tantamount to provoking the whole world! No matter how strong the Celestial Paragon Tower was, they couldn't fight against the combined might of all the experts of the Primordial G.o.d Realm! 

He could already foresee the downfall of the Celestial Paragon Tower as he stared into Telu's eyes. This guy has been brainwashed by his father and he couldn't even discern the implications brought by Celestial Emperor Lao Gou's command. 

"Don't worry. I won't go against the Celestial Emperor's orders. I will faithfully do my task and kill Jiu Shen and his subordinates. This is my job as the Vice Sect Master of the Celestial Paragon Tower!" Valir muttered as he lightly pushed Telu's hand. 

The old man turned his head towards their confused soldiers and shouted with a cold look. "The Celestial Emperor has given his commands! Our task is to kill Jiu Shen and his people! Charge with me!" 

"Kill!" 

"Kill!"

Telu's eyes turned gentle as he followed the old man's lead. 

It was time to kill Jiu Shen!

***

Jiu Shen slowly descended. He had already accomplished the mission given by the system and he was eager to see his reward. 

"I want to get the Primal Law Tablet." He muttered as he went inside the Spirit World. He had no strength to continue fighting, so he might as well check his reward in a safe zone. 

A piece of stone appeared in front of Jiu Shen. It looked ordinary and seemed no different from the rocks found at the side of the road. 

He grabbed the piece of stone and stared at it in confusion. "How do I use this?" He muttered as he released a wave of spiritual power to observe the stone. 

The ordinary-looking stone suddenly cracked and crumbled into pieces, turning into golden specks of dust that shot towards Jiu Shen. 

"This..." 

He was surprised and failed to evade the golden dust. He then lost consciousness...

"Where is this? This isn't the Spirit World..." Jiu Shen murmured when he noticed that he was standing in an empty dark world filled with stars. 

The vast universe made Jiu Shen feel its majesty. He thought that he was already strong, but only now did he realize that he was still minuscule compared to the limitless universe. 

A torrent of unfamiliar information abruptly invaded his head, making him groan. It felt as if thousands of ants were slowly gnawing his head. 

Amidst the pain, Jiu Shen discovered that his brain activity heightened. He sorted the new 'memories' inside his head and was stunned by the revelations. "I was wrong the whole time..."

"I foolishly followed Lao Gou's path of Heartless Void and strayed from my own path. Foolish. Incredibly foolish." Jiu Shen laughed at his stupidity. He finally realized why he had failed to become a Celestial G.o.d Realm expert even after millions of years of training and cultivation. 

The 4th Heart Realm was supposed to be different for every individual, but he chose to follow the doc.u.ments written by Lao Gou. This blocked his only road to reach the realms of the Celestials! 

"Lao Gou, you knew about this and intentionally allowed me to steal those rotten doc.u.ments! d.a.m.nable old b.a.s.t.a.r.d!" Jiu Shen cursed under his breath. He learned how foolish his past self was to be actually fooled by Lao Gou. 

Jiu Shen calmed his heart and allowed the new memories to become part of him. He closed his eyes and chose to accept the gnawing pain in his head. 

His torn upper body healed at a discernible speed. The wounds on his body slowly disappeared.

Profound archaic golden light enveloped Jiu Shen's body, providing him with endless mysterious power! 

The heavenly punishment didn't even dare to reveal itself as if afraid of the power revolving around Jiu Shen. 

A gentle holy aura spread throughout Jiu Shen's body, cleansing him from the filth of mortality. His skin glistened like a flawless gem, and the golden energy in his body was burned, replaced by a sublime divine power!

Early stage Celestial G.o.d Realm.

Mid stage Celestial G.o.d Realm.

Late stage Celestial G.o.d Realm.

Jiu Shen's eyelashes fluttered as he gently opened his eyes. His beautiful golden pupils shone with an ancient primal glow.

"So Celestial Emperors are also subdivided into small realms. The enlightenment this time made me jump straight into the late stage of the Celestial G.o.d Realm..." Jiu Shen whispered as he observed the tremendous changes in his body and soul. 

"The Celestial G.o.d Realm is truly different than the lower realms. The High Chieftain Wuka should be an early stage Celestial G.o.d Realm expert. He is very weak compared to the present me. If we fought again, I can kill him in a single move..." 

"My Fourth Heart Realm... I'll call it... Rebirth."
