Chapter 6033: The Might of Heavenly Gods

“What’s going on?”

The people outside God’s Era stared intently at the image reflected by the humongous mirror.

“Who are those foreign faces? Are they from the Ancient Era?”

The crowd had their guesses, but they had no way of verifying them.

Their guess was on the dot.

Gathered in vast space within God’s Era were thousands of famous present-era cultivators. Most of them were from the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion, Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect, and the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion, though there were powerhouses from other powers and unaffiliated cultivators too.

Standing at the forefront of this group were the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s Mansion Master, the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master, and the Heavenly Dome Immortal Sect’s sectmaster.

None of these powerhouses knew that their actions were visible to those outside God’s Era. They had just been transported here, and they were still figuring out what was going on.

They soon noticed a massive barrier dividing this space into two.

This barrier was very resilient, such that even Jie Tianran couldn’t breach it. There weren’t as many people on the other side of the barrier, numbering less than a thousand, and all of them were foreign faces, but none of them looked like pushovers.

They knew better than to underestimate anyone who had managed to get this far, especially considering the tough trials they had been through themselves. They deduced that the people on the other side of the barrier were either manifested from formations or from the Ancient Era.

“Who is Jie Tianran?” someone from the other side of the barrier asked.

The person sounded like an old man, but there was no way to know for sure as he was dressed in a red cloak and a red bamboo hat with a veil that completely covered his facial features.

Almost a hundred red-cloaked figures were standing near him. They were likely from the same power.

“I am Jie Tianran. May I know who you are?” Jie Tianran stepped forward and asked.

“I am the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster, Honghun Tazai,” the red-cloaked man replied.

“I see. Do you have business with me?”

“Not at all. I was asking out of curiosity, as I heard that you’re the strongest among the present-era cultivators. Let me offer you a warning. I don’t know whether this barrier will disappear or not, but you better pray that it doesn’t.”

“I see.” Jie Tianran chuckled. He knew what the other party was getting at, but he still feigned ignorance and asked, “Why is that so?”

“I’ll crush you as soon as the barrier disappears. I’ll prove that you, present-era cultivators, are no more than a bunch of monkeys.”

The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster unleashed his oppressive might.

It didn’t hurt anyone, but it expanded at an unbelievable pace. Those inside God’s Era might not be able to see it, but those outside saw his oppressive might enveloping an area comparable to a smaller realm via the mirror.

This meant that he could crush everything within the radius of a smaller realm at a whim.

“What terrifying oppressive might. He must be a Heavenly God level cultivator, right?”

Those gathered outside God’s Era discussed among themselves.

“I can’t sense it through the mirror, but not even a pinnacle True God level cultivator is capable of expanding their oppressive might to this scale. He must be a Heavenly God level cultivator.”

Their discussions might differ, but all of them came to the same conclusion.

Pinnacle True God level cultivators had the power to destroy realms too, but they would have to exert themselves considerably to do so. The fact that the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster was able to envelop such a vast area with his oppressive might proved that he was a Heavenly God.

Though the exact cultivation rank of the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster was still up for debate.

They weren’t familiar with the distinctions among Heavenly Gods, which wasn’t surprising as this cultivation level was a legend before the return of the Ancient Era’s powers. It was a gap in the present-era cultivators’ knowledge.

“How strong are the Ancient Era’s powers?”

“That Huangfu Heavenly Clan that appeared back then had a Heavenly God level cultivator. This Redsoul Sect also has a Heavenly God level cultivator...”

Even though they couldn’t sense the pressure coming from the oppressive might, those gathered outside God’s Era still frowned nevertheless. Some even began dripping cold sweat.

Those from the Ancient Era had never concealed the hostility they harbored toward the present-era cultivators, so those from the present era naturally viewed them as a hostile force too. The stronger the Ancient Era’s powers were, the greater the threat to them.

And things didn’t look optimistic for the present-era cultivators.

First the Huangfu Heavenly Clan, and now the Redsoul Sect. Not to forget that formidable Ancient Era’s clans had once banded together to attack the Ancestral Martial Galaxy too.

Most people didn’t witness that battle, but they had heard much from the rumors about how powerful the Ancient Era’s clans were.

And there could still be stronger Ancient Era’s powers that hadn’t made an appearance yet.

Things weren’t looking good for the present-era cultivators.

Those from the Ancient Era were also surprised when they saw the oppressive might of the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster. Some of them were fortunate to have attended the meetings hosted by the major Ancient Era’s clans, but they had never heard of the Redsoul Sect.

Yet, the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster was displaying the strength of a Heavenly God.

Heavenly Gods were rare even among the Ancient Era’s powers. Only the stronger powers had Heavenly Gods in their ranks. In other words, the Redsoul Sect was not to be made light of.

However, those from the Ancient Era celebrated this news. They might not be from the same power, but they were now standing on the same front, knowing that the present-era cultivators were going to be their future opponents.

...

“Hah...” Jie Tianran sneered in disdain.

“What are you laughing at?” the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster asked.

“You’re unqualified if that’s all you have.”

“Hahaha!” The Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster began laughing arrogantly. It took a while before he calmed down and said, “It’s easy to brag. The question is if you have the strength to back your words. Jie Tianran, let’s see who’s the unqualified one here when this barrier vanishes.”

“You’re indeed unqualified.”

An old man wearing golden armor walked up to Jie Tianran’s side and faced the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster. He was Yuwen Yanri’s grandfather, as well as the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master.

“Who do you think you are to speak to me?” the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster sneered.

“I am the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master. You’ll have to first get past me if you wish to fight the Seven Realms Sacred Mansion’s Mansion Master.”

With a loud explosion, the Divine Body Heavenly Mansion’s Mansion Master unleashed his oppressive might. It enveloped an area comparable to that of the Redsoul Sect’s sectmaster.
