Chapter 1325: Chapter 1325: The Strong Ones of the 33 Heavens
 

Beiting Lin had seemingly anticipated Beiting Huang’s objection and stepped forward first. He walked over to Beiting Huang and, placing his hands on her shoulders, he locked his kind eyes on hers with a pained expression. “Child, you have lost your father and mother, and I have lost my son and daughter-in-law. The affairs of the Beiting Family are not yours alone to bear; we all share the responsibility and obligation.”

Indeed, it seemed that Beiting Huang had no right to stop her grandfather from searching for his son and daughter-in-law, nor did she have the right to stop her elder brother from accompanying him in the search for their parents. Her gaze fell on Nangong Cang and the other two venerable figures, but before she could speak, Nangong Cang had already opened his mouth.

“Big Boss, you are our Big Boss. The moment the Alliance Empire was established, you said that you wanted your Iron Blood Mercenary Group to conquer every inch of the land in Rubis World. As venerable members of the Alliance Empire, this is also our glory,” Nangong Cang felt the blood that had cooled with age bubble with heat once more. “If we were not aware of what the 33 Heavens were like, then so be it. But now that we do know, we are bound to go sooner or later, so why not sooner rather than later?”

“Yes!” Dongfang Lu also stepped forward. “As long as the Big Boss doesn’t think we’re too old. But after advancing into Heaven Rank, we’re not really old. I’ve heard the Great Elder mention that Ming has lived for thousands of years; we’re only over a hundred years old. Compared to him, we’re indeed much younger. Since we’re so young, why not take a chance?”

“Big Boss, His Highness the Night King said that the three continents were one ten thousand years ago and that our ancestors were once from the four major families in the Misty Shadow Land of the Thirty-Three Heavens. Now that we have the chance, why not go back to see it, to search for our roots?” Ximen Jing added, truly unable to bear seeing this young man always thinking of others, always giving to others, yet never willing to ask for anything in return.

Beiting Huang felt a sourness at the tip of her nose; she was no fool. How could she not hear that the three big families would definitely not ignore the affairs of the Beiting Family, even if it meant that in the future they would face the most powerful Devil Emperor in the entire world? They were undeterred.

The four major families had been standing unshaken on the Central Continent for ten thousand years, relying not only on the cultivation talent passed down through their lineage but most importantly, on such a spirit.

Not wanting Beiting Huang to carry any psychological burden, Yan Ye pointed at the Teleportation Array and explained, “Ten thousand years ago, when I tore through the planes, I left behind a Teleportation Formation between each plane. The reason Yan City was built here is also because of the presence of the Teleportation Formation here. However, due to Energy Accumulation reasons, the Teleportation Formation can only be used once every ten years, and each time, it cannot transport more than a hundred people. Over the ten thousand years, many powerful practitioners from Spirit Sect on the Central Continent have gone to the 33 Heavens through this Teleportation Formation.”

“Spirit Sect practitioners going to the 33 Heavens?” Beiting Lin suddenly felt an itching curiosity. “We are all at Heaven Rank; going to the 33 Heavens, surely our strength won’t be at the bottom?”

By this time, Yan Ye naturally wouldn’t keep things secret from them anymore. He nodded, “The 33 Heavens indeed have many supremely powerful beings. Those who reach the Supreme Realm can become dominant forces within their own domain. Lord-level and overlord level are considered masters in the 33 Heavens. However, anyone above lord-level is considered to have average strength. The entire Rubis World, ever since the Demon Spirits Great War, has seen a depletion in demonic energy. But every advancement beyond Heaven Rank, including the initial advancement into Heaven Rank, requires the absorption of a vast amount of demonic energy, which is precisely what the 33 Heavens lack.”
