The Old Master chuckled, "Of course, I didn't know. When you entered the Southern Ming Divine Domain, that area happened to fall under the jurisdiction of our Temple of Martial Arts. It's called Unreturning Mountain, and there are formations present on Unreturning Mountain. The moment you stepped into the Southern Ming Divine Domain, I sensed it. However, I didn't want to pry into your actions; that would be an unfriendly act. If I did that, it might lead to misunderstandings. To avoid unnecessary trouble, I absolutely wouldn't do such a thing. If I did, you would definitely notice, and it would be a loss without any meaning."
"I only know that after you left Unreturning Mountain, you all went your separate ways. I assume your goal is to retrieve your Kunlun Mirror from the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming. Our objectives align; we have common interests, so I've never intended to deal with you. I initially wanted to find a suitable opportunity to talk with you, but who would have thought you'd come here yourself?"
The Old Master spoke at length, alleviating most of Wei Chen's doubts.
After pondering for a while, Wei Chen asked lightly, "Master of the Hall, what was your intention in abducting Wei Chen from the Wei Family to the Temple of Martial Arts?"
"It's simple. I knew that strong figures from the Ancient World had arrived, and chaos was bound to ensue in the Southern Ming Divine Domain. We first abducted Wei Chen from Duke Sui's Residence to observe the Wei Family's reaction. Choosing Sui Guo Gong Fu Wei Chen was meant to avoid completely antagonizing the Wei Family. If we had taken Wei Jian or his other sons, it would have led to bloodshed. However, this current body of Wei Chen is somewhat different; you should know his strength is quite poor and he isn't well-regarded in Duke Sui's Residence."
Upon hearing this, Wei Chen nodded slightly and reflected for a moment before understanding.
"Master of the Hall, what do you think we should do to cooperate now?" Wei Chen asked calmly.
The Old Master smiled and replied, "Wei Chenyu, you're so astute that you don't need me to analyze it for you, right? If you have any questions, feel free to ask; the Old Man will answer everything."
"Alright." Wei Chen smiled casually and said, "Master of the Hall, what do you think will be the response of the Wei Family next?"
"They will definitely stir up trouble in the capital and seize some benefits. As for their concern for your life in this body, they might care a little but not too much. Before long, General Wei will come to the Temple of Martial Arts to demand people and methods from us. He won't make a big fuss because he knows that the Temple of Martial Arts is not someone he can offend," the Old Master said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wei Chen narrowed his eyes slightly and asked, "Master of the Hall, can I continue using this body? Will others from the Supreme God Realm be able to recognize my true identity?"
The Old Master paused for a moment and then said thoughtfully, "Friend, that's a difficult question to answer. I could see through your identity because I sensed your aura when you entered the Southern Ming Divine Domain; I remembered it. The other strong figures from the Supreme God Realm do not know your aura. Even if they try to see through you, it should be quite difficult for them. However, I can't guarantee anything since each Supreme God has different focuses. Some Supreme Gods specialize in Mental Strength probing; they might easily see through your true form."
After listening to the Old Master's words, Wei Chen hesitated slightly. It was hard-earned to obtain such a good identity; if he were to give it up just like that, he felt somewhat reluctant!
“Master of the Hall, if I return to Duke Sui's Residence now, will Wei Jian be able to see my true form?” Wei Chen asked calmly.
Old Master shook his head and replied, “Not really. Wei Jian is also in the Supreme God Realm, but his blade is that of a Supreme God. His sword techniques are incredibly powerful, and his killing intent is exceedingly fierce. As a Guardian General of the Southern Ming Divine Domain, he is stained with blood; it is through that bloodshed that he has attained the Supreme God Realm. Many fear his combat prowess in direct confrontations.”
“What if I encounter the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming? What are the chances of being seen through?” Wei Chen inquired.
Old Master pondered for a moment before saying, “Approximately, you would have a fifty percent chance of being seen through. It’s fifty-fifty, depending on your disguise and your luck.”
Wei Chen thought for a while and then asked, “Master of the Hall, how is the classification of Supreme Gods within the Endless Divine Realm? Not to make you laugh, but during my time in the Demon Realm, I always believed there were only Eighteen Supreme Gods in the Endless Divine Realm.”
“In fact, saying there are only Eighteen Supreme Gods in the Endless Divine Realm isn’t entirely inaccurate; it’s quite precise,” Old Master paused and smiled. “In the Endless Divine Realm, many matters are quite complex. You cannot simply categorize strength based on Divine Power levels; that is impossible.”
Wei Chen respectfully replied, “Please enlighten me, senior.”
“In the Endless Divine Realm, ‘Supreme God’ is merely a title. Aside from those Eighteen Supreme Gods, no one else can truly be considered a Supreme God. That title isn’t something just anyone can possess.”
Old Master looked at Wei Chen and chuckled.
Wei Chen nodded and said, “Please continue, senior.”
“Those Eighteen Supreme Gods are indeed the true Supreme Gods. They possess the Divine King Token of a Supreme God; it is only with that token that one can be called a Supreme God. The others may reach the Supreme God level in terms of Divine Power but lack the authority of a true Supreme God.”
“The difference between a genuine Supreme God and one who merely possesses the Divine Power level of a Supreme God is not always obvious. Just because a Supreme God has a Divine King Token does not mean they are significantly stronger than other Supreme Gods; they might even be slightly weaker. Take Wei Jian for instance; he became a Supreme God through his bloody blade and possesses formidable combat strength. He wouldn’t fear facing the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming directly. Moreover, with so many armies under his command, even the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming harbors considerable fear towards Wei Jian.”
"With my strength, I can defeat both Wei Jian and the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming without any problem. However, I cannot kill the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming who possesses the Divine King Token. As long as the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming is alive, the Divine King Token will not leave his body, and the rest of us top-tier forces, the Supreme Gods, will have no chance."
"The Supreme Deity of Southern Ming is considered relatively weak among the Supreme Gods. It is precisely because of this that the Southern Ming Divine Domain has become so chaotic and disordered, with wars breaking out repeatedly. If the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming were a bit stronger, honestly, our Temple of Martial Arts, along with the Privy Hall and the Wei Family, would not have been able to reach our current state. All of this is due to the Supreme Deity of Southern Ming's lack of strength."
The Old Master glanced deeply at Wei Chen and said, "Friend, you must know about the Void Pressure in the Endless Divine Realm?"
"I know. Under such pressure, one's strength decreases by tens of thousands of times. Those below Third-Level Deity cannot even fly using Qi. Even Fifth-Level Deities find it very exhausting to fly using Qi and wouldn't do so casually," Wei Chen nodded in agreement.
The Old Master smiled and said, "Exactly! It is because of this that the Endless Divine Realm can be preserved. Otherwise, if a few gods were to fight, it would cause catastrophic destruction; the entire Endless Divine Realm would be obliterated."
Wei Chen nodded blankly, unsure of what to say.
The Old Master chuckled and continued, "In the Endless Divine Realm, everyone's strength is severely compressed. The oppressive aura exists everywhere within the Endless Divine Realm; no one can escape it. Your combat power is still adjusting to the Void Pressure since you just arrived here. Therefore, I believe you are currently not a match for any Supreme God who possesses a Divine King Token. Once you adapt for a while, your strength will surpass many Supreme Gods and you will become a true overlord within the Endless Divine Realm."
"Senior, what do you mean by that?" Wei Chen frowned and asked.
The Old Master looked deeply at Wei Chen and replied, "Because you are an Intruder! You and your companions are forbidden existences within the Endless Divine Realm—Intruders!"
Wei Chen was confused. "Senior, could you clarify? With such vague information, I really don’t understand what you mean!"
"Intruders," he explained further, "have never been forgotten in the minds of those at the higher levels of the Endless Divine Realm. The term 'Intruder' is a nightmare for them."
The Old Master gazed intently at Wei Chen and continued explaining: "Years ago, when the Endless Divine Realm invaded the Ancient World, it was because they feared the Stellar Technique from the Ancient World—the Power of the Stars was considered supreme. This has become a consensus within the Endless Divine Realm. Some Fifth-Level Deities and even Supreme Gods have managed to develop a decent technique for harnessing divine power to manipulate stars; its power is not weak. However, everyone knows that this technique falls far short compared to true Stellar Technique. They all understand that Stellar Power itself is the most powerful force; using divine power to manipulate stars still relies on divine power as its source."
"The fundamental reason why the Endless Divine Realm fears the Stellar Technique from the Ancient World is that it poses a threat to their dominance. For example, a Supreme God from the Endless Divine Realm can easily annihilate anyone in the Ancient World. But within their own realm, a Supreme God would be overwhelmed by those wielding Stellar Power without any chance to fight back. Do you know why that is?"
Old Master looked at Wei Chen and asked calmly.
Upon hearing Old Master's words, Wei Chen felt somewhat confused. The Supreme God could easily defeat the Divine King in the Ancient World, yet in his own domain, the Endless Divine Realm, he was being suppressed by the Stellar Power experts from the Ancient World. What kind of logic was that?
But in just a moment of thought, Wei Chen understood.
This situation must be related to the adaptability to the Void Pressure of the Endless Divine Realm, right? Old Master had just mentioned that Wei Chen had only recently arrived in the Endless Divine Realm and was still unaccustomed to its Void Pressure. His implication was that as time passed, Wei Chen's combat power would greatly recover.
"Master of the Hall, do you mean that those who cultivate the Stellar Technique can resist the Void Pressure of the Endless Divine Realm to some extent?" Wei Chen asked with some excitement as he looked at Old Master.
Old Master nodded and praised, "Talking to smart people is always good. The Stellar Power can even fully recover over time within the Endless Divine Realm, reaching its peak state. Just think about it—who will be your opponent in the Endless Divine Realm then? You can kill whoever you want with ease."
Hearing Old Master's explanation, Wei Chen was instantly thrilled. If that were true, wouldn't he be at a tremendous advantage?
"Master of the Hall, do you have any evidence for your claims?" Wei Chen asked.
Old Master replied, "Of course. Do you know about that hidden history? Why did the Endless Divine Realm go to war with the Ancient World?"
Wei Chen shook his head and said, "I don't know."
He had only received some information from a Divine King of the Ancient World, but that event was too far in the past. Those Divine Kings probably only had a vague understanding of it since they hadn't truly participated in that battle.
