Chapter 388: Turmoil is Coming
The Heaven-covering Realm, the Big Dipper Star Region, and the Valley of the Gods.

Since Chai Xin had previously gone to the world of immortality from here, when he returned this time, he still returned to the original place.

"who!"

As soon as Chai Xin appeared on the throne in the hall, two heroic low shouts sounded at the same time.

He looked carefully and saw two female guards in armor outside the hall, each holding a weapon in their hands, approaching quickly.

Before Chai Xin could open his mouth to explain, the two heroic female guards showed similar shock in their eyes the moment they saw his face clearly, and then they sheathed their swords and bowed and clasped their fists.

"See the Prince Consort!"

The two women saluted in unison.

"Lianqiao, Daphne, where is the princess?"

Chai Xin nodded slightly, looked around, and didn't see anyone he wanted to meet, so he couldn't help but ask.

These two female guards had followed Yan Ruyu for many years, so he naturally recognized them.

Lian Qiao heard this and stood up and replied, "Recently, there have been many unusual movements in various places in Beidou. At the invitation of King Jiang, Your Highness went to the Jiang Family Holy Land two days ago to discuss important matters. Commander Pang Da and the elders also went with him. The two of us are here to wait for the return of the Prince Consort and inform him of the situation on the orders of Your Highness."

"Unusual movement? What kind of unusual movement is it? Do you know?"

Chai Xin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and instantly thought of many things.

The first reaction was that the immortals in the restricted area might have made some moves; or perhaps, the old guys on the ancient road of the human race were unwilling to give up and came to Beidou to disturb.

"The princess didn't say it clearly, she just said that the matter was of great importance. If the prince consort returns, it would be best to rush to the Jiang family as soon as possible." Yanhua replied respectfully.

Chai Xin nodded and asked, "How long has it been since I left?"

Although they were surprised that he didn't know how long he had been gone, they answered without hesitation: "Two years and five months."

Chai Xin was shocked, but he remained calm. He secretly asked the Jade of Creation, "Didn't they say that the speed of time should be kept at five times? It only took me two days to return to the Heaven Covering Realm, but how come it's already been nearly two and a half years here?"

“Master, have you forgotten that in the fairyland of immortality, the speed of time flows more than three hundred and sixty times that of the mortal world!” The voice of the Jade of Creation sounded immediately.

Upon hearing this, Chai Xin suddenly realized that he had underestimated the time difference between the fairy world and the mortal world.

In the world of immortality, there is a saying that "one day in heaven is one year on earth", which means the speed of time flow is more than three hundred and sixty times different!
So although Chai Xin only stayed in the fairyland for most of the day, more than half a year had actually passed in the mortal world.

After returning to the Zhatian Realm, this half year or so multiplied by five would be more than two years, without any error.

"Okay, I'll go to the Jiang family right away, and you guys can continue as usual."

Chai Xin thought for a moment, gave a few instructions, and then disappeared from the spot.

At the same time, in the northern region of Eastern Wilderness, Jiang Family.

At this time, under the personal decree of the Divine King Jiang Taixu, almost all major human forces in the Eastern Wilderness sent representatives to discuss major issues.

Even many major forces in Zhongzhou, Beiyuan, Nanling and Ximo sent troops.

In a huge palace, thousands of people were seated, their eyes fixed on the majestic figure on the throne.

Although there were a large number of people, it was very quiet and you could hear a pin drop in the hall.

"The God King summoned us here to talk about a major event that concerns the survival of the world, and requires everyone in the world to work together to face it... I wonder what it is?"

An old man spoke first, breaking the silence.

This is a veteran member of the royal family of the ancient Xia Dynasty in Zhongzhou. The current emperor of the Xia Dynasty also calls him uncle.

This old uncle of the emperor had been sleeping in the divine source for many years. In recent years, strange changes began to appear in the way of heaven. He woke up thirty years ago and became a master at the level of a great sage.

Since everyone was here, they were all very concerned and listened attentively.

Jiang Taixu sat upright on the throne, his black hair casually draped over his shoulders. His handsome face looked no more than thirty years old, and his demeanor was even better than before.

He swept his gentle gaze over the crowd and spoke slowly, "Two years ago, I had already ordered people to inform the leaders of each family of the relevant matters. Don't you know anything about this?"

"I do know that... The God King once sent someone to tell us that there seems to be an extremely powerful person entrenched in each life restricted area... But this statement... is still hard for us to believe."

Another old voice sounded, and it came from the supreme elder of a sect in Nanling. He was also an old monster who had just awakened in recent years and was also at the Great Sage level.

In fact, all the forces that Jiang Taixu summoned this time are top forces with profound foundation and the presence of great sages.

"I can tell you clearly that there are Supreme Beings living in every life forbidden zone. This is absolutely true. In fact, the 'dark turmoil' that has been kept secret by all races throughout the ages is related to these lingering Supreme Beings."

As he spoke, Jiang Taixu waved his sleeves lightly, and suddenly a dazzling light flew out and hovered above the hall.

Everyone looked in that direction and discovered that it was actually a cauldron emitting a scarlet divine light!
"Hengyu Divine Furnace!"

"Sun God Furnace!"

Many people shouted out different names, but they were all referring to the same object—the Jiang family's ultimate imperial weapon.

"Under the cover of the Hengyu Furnace, even the Supreme Beings cannot find out what is happening here." Jiang Taixu's attitude seemed very cautious, but his tone was still calm and peaceful. "You have all heard about the dark turmoil, right?"

Draw attention from his words, everyone shifted their attention from the Hengyu Divine Furnace to the four words "dark turmoil".

Most of the people had solemn expressions on their faces, with undisguised fear in their eyes, and it was obvious that they all knew something about the dark turmoil.

This is not surprising. The forces that were invited by Jiang Taixu to attend this conference all have extremely deep backgrounds, and records of dark turmoil have never been completely cut off.

Of course, since the supreme beings in the restricted area are too overbearing, every time they launch a dark turmoil, all major forces will almost be cut off from their inheritance, so the truth they know is also extremely limited.

These people do not know who is the mastermind behind the dark turmoil.

After Jiang Taixu mentioned this, they felt a chill down their spines - could the existence that started the dark turmoil really be the ancient emperors?
However, how could those great beings who were once revered by all races do such a cruel and insane thing?

"You might as well think about it, why those ancient royal families have been able to pass on to this day... and our human race has produced countless emperors throughout the ages, but the current extremely powerful families... are only a few?"

Jiang Taixu's voice became distant, making people feel heavy in their hearts, with an indescribable sense of oppression. "Because, the culprits who started the dark turmoil were the founders of the ancient royal families, the ancient emperors one after another. And the emperor of our human race, for the sake of the people of the world, did not hesitate to fight alone with them... For example, the ancestor of our Jiang family, Emperor Hengyu, once stepped into the Taichu Ancient Mine and killed a supreme being."

These words came out of his mouth so calmly and slowly, without any excitement or solemnity.

But to everyone's ears, it sounded like thunder, shaking their hearts and minds.

The records of Emperor Hengyu entering the Taichu Ancient Mine and fighting a fierce battle with an unknown mysterious existence are actually recorded in the secret books of all major forces.

However, no one really knew the secret behind it until it was revealed by Jiang Taixu himself today.

The people in the hall could no longer remain calm. Even though they were all veterans, they could not help but talk to each other.

Many of the ancient emperors never died, and turned into demons that harmed all living beings - no matter how you look at it, it feels like a fairy tale that subverts cognition.

"May I ask the God King, why did those former emperors launch the Dark Turmoil? Did they do this to curb the inheritance of other races and prevent the birth of the Great Emperor?"

A clear voice sounded, and it was obviously a woman asking a question, but she asked the real point, which immediately attracted everyone's attention. In an instant, the scene returned to a state where you could hear a pin drop.

"But if that's the case, why not just exterminate all the tribes? Wouldn't that solve the problem once and for all? Besides, their practice of slaughtering all living things doesn't seem to have stopped the nobles and my demon tribe from constantly producing emperors."

The person asking the question was none other than Yan Ruyu, a descendant of the Green Emperor and known as the princess of the demon clan.

In fact, she was just asking the question knowing the answer, just to put on a show with Jiang Taixu.

The God King had already explained the truth about the forbidden zone of life and the dark turmoil to her clearly on the day she arrived at the Jiang family.

Jiang Taixu's gaze fell on her, with a look of relief in his eyes, but it flashed away and he looked at everyone again.

"As we all know, generally speaking, the Supreme Being can only live for 10,000 years. Even with the help of the immortal elixir, they can only live for 20,000 years, which is the limit. So...how can these ancient emperors live to this day?"

As soon as he said this, everyone in the hall fell into deep thought. Some of those who reacted quickly had their faces changed, and it was obvious that they had thought of a terrible truth.

"The truth is, in order to prolong their existence, they have annihilated all conscience and plundered the vitality of all living things in the universe!

"In their eyes, each planet with life is like leeks in a vegetable garden, growing continuously and being harvested by them...

"Every so-called dark turmoil is when their vitality is close to exhaustion, so they devour the essence of all living things like demons. The emperors of the human and demon races, with the people of the world in their hearts, disdain to associate with them, and fight bloody battles in anger until death!"

At this point, even someone as strong-willed as Jiang Taixu's voice trembled uncontrollably, and it was obvious that he was extremely emotional.

These words, word by word, fell into the ears of the crowd, and were like the sound of a huge bell, lingering for a long time.

Next, Jiang Taixu recounted a lot of records about the great battles between the emperors in history and the supreme beings in the forbidden area. The content was very detailed and echoed some secrets that everyone had always known.

This made many people who were originally skeptical start to believe everything he said involuntarily.

The discussion in the hall started again, and many people's voices were trembling. They were shocked by this sudden and unbelievable truth and could not calm down.

"The Divine King summoned us here for a purpose, surely. Could it be..."

Finally, someone asked the most crucial point, and it turned out to be the representative from the Yao Chi Holy Land, Zhang Ziling.

Zhang Ziling's current cultivation level has actually reached the pinnacle of Saint King, and judging from his aura, it seems that he is only one step away from bringing about the Great Saint Tribulation at any time!

Obviously, in recent years, the way of heaven has shown signs of a last gasp, and many restrictions on cultivation no longer exist. For a gifted person like him, cultivation is like a fish in water, to a level that was unbelievable before.

In fact, in the entire Beidou, the geniuses of the same generation as Chai Xin and Ye Fan, basically as long as they are still alive, are at least at the level of Zhan Dao, and many of them have already become saints.

A few top geniuses have even entered the realm of Saint King.

What's more, people like Pang Bo, Zhang Ziling, Jiang Yifei, the Holy Prince, etc., who have good luck, talent, and background, have already touched the edge of becoming a great sage!

As for the older generation strong men like Jiang Taixu, Fighting Buddha and others who have not fallen, they have basically reached the quasi-emperor realm.

These changes took place within just sixty years.

This is the last golden age, and also the most prosperous age since the rise of the Heaven-Covering Law.

"Yes, the God King mentioned this matter at this time and invited us here so solemnly. Could it be that the dark turmoil... is coming again?"

"If this is true, it would be tantamount to a disaster that would destroy the world!"

"The truth behind the dark turmoil is actually this... The former emperors wielded their butcher knives against the people who worshipped them..."

Everyone's heart trembled, realizing that a terrible future was about to unfold, and they all focused their eyes back on Jiang Taixu's face.

Jiang Taixu remained silent for a long time under the gaze of the crowd, and finally nodded slowly: "Yes, I have sensed that some of the old immortals in the restricted area can no longer hold back and are beginning to stir. I am afraid that within three to five years, they will start a dark turmoil again."

After these words were spoken, even though there were formations protecting the hall and it was like spring all year round, everyone couldn't help but feel cold all over.

There was another long period of dead silence.

Everyone fell into silence and fear, and didn't know what to say for a long time.

"May I ask how the Divine King sensed that the dark turmoil was about to come again? Could it be what Xuan Huang Supreme said?"

Soon, someone asked again. It was a supreme elder of Yaoguang Holy Land.

The Xuanhuang Supreme he mentioned was actually Chai Xin.

Everyone knows that Chai Xin is invincible in the world, but he has not yet attained enlightenment, so it is difficult for him to be called an emperor, so he is called "the Supreme".

Also because of the Xuan Huang Seal, they are collectively called "Xuan Huang Supreme".

Of course, some people also call him "Supreme Chai", "Supreme Xin", "Supreme Jiang", etc. There is no unified name.

In the eyes of many people, if there is one person in this world who can confront the mysterious existence in the restricted area head-on, it can only be the invincible supreme leader of the Jiang family.

Therefore, when many people heard what Jiang Taixu said, they immediately speculated that this matter was related to Chai Xin.

Otherwise, there are more than one quasi-emperor in the world, and there are many who are more senior than Jiang Taixu. How come he was the only one who got the news?
