The fourteenth step was an irresistible temptation for every thirteenth step powerhouse.
Gao Zhengyang was also extremely curious about fourteenth level power, and desired it greatly. However, Rank Fourteen power was extremely profound.
Ever since the beginning of the Fourth Epoch, no Rank Fourteen expert had appeared. There were no records of them.
From then on, Rank Thirteen God Lords dominated the universe. There had never been any record of a Rank Thirteen God Lord advancing to Rank Fourteen.
According to the records of various ancient books, experts from all sides believed that the fourteenth and fifteenth level of divine might was naturally formed. In other words, if one was not Rank Fourteen or Rank Fifteen when they were born, they could not reach this level by relying on cultivation.
Gao Zhengyang had never seen a warrior of the fourteenth and fifteenth level. Just from the scant records in the ancient books, it was difficult to tell how strong a warrior of the fourteenth and fifteenth level was, and how strong they were. There was naturally no way to judge.
Gao Zhengyang had once discussed this with the Phoenix Empress, Feng Ning. Feng Ning had never seen an expert above Rank Thirteen. It was just that the memories of the Phoenix Race's bloodline gave her some impression of Rank Fifteen experts.
Based on what Feng Ning said, Rank Fifteen experts had endless power. They could be seen as the personification of the core laws of the universe. They used their understanding to change the world and all living beings.
The result was naturally disastrous.
Many Rank Fifteen experts fought and shattered the world. At the same time, they created many living beings. The Phoenix Race believed that Rank Fourteen experts were a part of the power of Rank Fifteen experts.
The most obvious example was Star Emperor Purple Myrtle. Only after Star Emperor Purple Myrtle disappeared did the White Tiger, Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise Star Gods appear. The four Star Gods each ruled over a region of the universe and had great authority. The authority of the four Star Gods came from Star Emperor Purple Myrtle.
This clear inheritance could not be described as a coincidence.
Gao Zhengyang felt that Feng Ning's explanation was very reasonable. The disappearance of all Rank Fifteen experts was clearly not an accident. Some special reason had restricted all Rank Fifteen experts.
As for Rank Fourteen experts, they were clearly too powerful, surpassing the limits of the universe. Thus, Rank Fourteen experts had also disappeared.
Rank Thirteen experts were naturally very powerful and formed their own world. However, to the vast and boundless universe, it was like a mad shark in the ocean. No matter how big and fierce it was, it could not affect the ocean.
Under normal circumstances, it was impossible for a Type 14 powerhouse to appear in the myriad worlds. However, when an era collapsed, all the laws would be reorganized.
In this chaotic era, all restrictions would be broken. The fourteenth and fifteenth steps were not out of reach.
However, Gao Zhengyang did not trust the Northern Dipper and Southern Dipper Starlords. They had just met and they were already talking about such an important matter. These two trusted him too much.
Gao Zhengyang didn't trust these two. Anything related to the Star Gods could not be taken lightly. Epochal Reincarnation, be it the Evil Gods or the Ancient Gods, all living beings could work together.
Only the Star God Clan existed for the sole purpose of destruction, and they were the mortal enemies of all living beings. There was absolutely no possibility of peace talks.
The Southern Dipper Star Lord and the Northern Dipper Star Lord had both seized Star Energy Origin to become God Lords. It was hard to say if they had seized the Origin of Star Power, or if they had been infected and devoured by the Origin of Star Power.
This was completely different from the Lotus Thearch seizing the Origin of Star Power. First of all, the Lotus Thearch was a Type 13 powerhouse and would not be infected by external star power. Secondly, the Origin of Star Power was not that strong. It would not pose any threat to the Lotus Thearch.
Gao Zhengyang did not trust the Northern and Southern Dipper Star Lords, and he did not hide his distrust either. He shook his head and said, "This is an important matter. I need to think about it."
The Southern Dipper Star Lord also understood Gao Zhengyang's concerns. He said, "This is indeed an important matter. Please think about it. If you want to work together, contact me at any time. "
He paused and explained, "It is a bit hasty to discuss such an important matter as soon as we meet. However, there are too few opportunities to go up the Soul-Refining Platform. We can only try. "
The Southern Dipper Star Lord did not explain too much, but his meaning was very clear. They had only come up with this idea on the spur of the moment. The key was that the opportunity to go up the Soul-Refining Platform was too rare.
If Gao Zhengyang was willing to work together, he might be able to solve the secret of the Pantheon Hall. In comparison, their recklessness was nothing.
"I understand." Gao Zhengyang also understood what the two Divine Lords meant, but he would not be easily persuaded.
The Southern Dipper Star Lord and the Northern Dipper Star Lord knew that it was useless to say more. It would be a bit awkward if they continued to stay. They stood up and cupped their fists to bid farewell to Gao Zhengyang.
After the two Divine Lords left, Feng Qingling snorted softly. "I don't think they are good people."
Gao Zhengyang was a bit surprised. "How can you tell?"
"I just don't like them," Feng Qingling said matter-of-factly.
"Since they don't look at me, they are definitely not good people."
Gao Zhengyang could not help but laugh. This logic was very in line with Feng Qingling's personality. However, Feng Qingling's Phoenix Ritual of the Ninth Heaven was an extremely special ability that was best at communicating with sentient beings.
Therefore, even someone as powerful as the Phoenix Empress, Feng Ning, could not resist Feng Qingling's charm.
Logically speaking, as long as the thirteenth rank Divine Lord was a sentient being, it would be difficult for them to escape the influence of the Phoenix Ritual of the Ninth Heaven. The South Star Divine Lord and the North Star Divine Lord actually did not look at Feng Qingling. There was indeed something wrong.
Gao Zhengyang thought for a moment and said, "Since you do not like these two, let's stay away from them."
Feng Qingling suggested, "Why don't you pretend to cooperate and trick them into coming over with the Stellar Fixing Seal?"
"You are so smart."
Gao Zhengyang poked Feng Qingling's forehead. She still wanted to play tricks in front of the two Divine Lords. Wasn't she courting death?
The Divine Lords had different personalities, but they were definitely not idiots.
Gao Zhengyang would not play tricks like this. He was a bit interested in the Stellar Fixing Seal, but only a bit.
He lectured Feng Qingling, "Let's not talk about the Stellar Fixing Seal first. The Pantheon Hall is the territory of the Master of the Nine Heavens. Is the Master of the Nine Heavens an idiot? He dares to take things out without understanding them? There is no such thing. "
Gao Zhengyang would not look down on his enemies, and he would not look down on the Divine Lords.
What kind of person was the Master of the Nine Heavens? He was an expert who defeated the Taiji Sword Palace.
Back then, the Taiji Sword Palace had 36 Sword Masters and dominated the universe. How awe-inspiring was that? In the end, they still died and their swords were broken. The majestic Taiji Sword Palace did not even leave behind a true inheritance.
From this, it could be seen how terrifying the Master of the Nine Heavens was.
If the Master of the Nine Heavens dared to place the Pantheon Hall here, then he must have been confident. If they wanted to turn the tables with a single Stellar Fixing Seal, then they were underestimating the Master of the Nine Heavens.
Feng Qingling lowered her head and said with a bit of shame, "I was wrong. These old fellows are so cunning. Let's go."
As Feng Qingling spoke, she became a bit worried for Gao Zhengyang. She originally thought that Gao Zhengyang was invincible in the heavens, but now that she thought about it, she was a bit worried for Gao Zhengyang.
The Master of the Nine Heavens and the Everlasting Divine Emperor made a total of 12 Divine Lords. Just in terms of numbers, they could completely crush Gao Zhengyang. Not to mention that they had a powerful divine artifact like the Pantheon Hall, as well as friends and relatives.
If Gao Zhengyang fell out with the Everlasting Divine Emperor in the Pantheon Hall, then he would definitely lose!
Feng Qingling originally thought that with her beauty and cuteness, even if something happened, she could help Gao Zhengyang pull in a group of helpers. She could even convince Gao Zhengyang's enemies.
But after meeting the Big Dipper and Southern Dipper, her Phoenix Ninth Heaven Divine Art was not very useful. This also dealt a huge blow to Feng Qingling's confidence.
It was not that Feng Qingling was naive. After she achieved Phoenix Ninth Heaven, she had never been rejected. Feng Ning and Gao Zhengyang still had to listen to her. This made her confidence explode.
She thought that with her beauty and cuteness, she could casually manipulate Divine Lords. The cruel reality made Feng Qingling wake up. She could not rely on Phoenix Ninth Heaven Divine Art to do as she pleased.
Feng Qingling's strong confidence quickly turned into a strong lack of confidence. This was not because she lost control of her emotions, but because she still lacked a clear understanding of level thirteen power.
Gao Zhengyang comforted her. "You don't have to be afraid. Even in the worst case scenario, with twelve Divine Lords working together, yes, I can still escape."
Feng Qingling was full of doubt. "Twelve Divine Lords attacking you together, and you can still escape. Are you that strong?"
"You don't understand a battle between Divine Lords. The more people there are, the stronger they are. "
Gao Zhengyang dared to come, so he naturally had his confidence. It was just that this kind of thing was not easy to explain to Feng Qingling. There was no need to explain too clearly.
Feng Qingling was skeptical. She hesitated and said, "Then what should we do first?"
"Since we're already here, it's good to walk around and broaden our horizons."
Gao Zhengyang said, "There are all Divine Lord level powerhouses here. There must be many interesting people and interesting things."
Gao Zhengyang was speaking when he suddenly sensed something. He raised his head and looked forward.
A man wearing a black and white Taiji Daoist robe walked out of the void. This man's eyes were different. In one was a coiling snake, and in the other was a black tortoise.
The coiling snake was deep and strange, and the black tortoise was steady and agile. The tortoise and snake complemented each other, their auras intertwining. The tortoise and snake kept changing, both real and illusory.
Gao Zhengyang immediately recognized this person's aura. True Martial Divine Emperor. He was also the Human World's fist and sword group. He was known as the creator of martial arts. He was also a Saint Divine Emperor of martial arts. Including the Barbarian Race, they all worshipped True Martial Divine Emperor.
Of course, to say that he was the source of all martial arts was a bit exaggerated. The Human World was the center of the cycle of eras. As eras passed, who knew how many inheritances were left behind.
It was just that these inheritances were incomplete. There was no clear connection. True Martial Divine Emperor's inheritances were clear, and they were crucial to the Human Race and the Barbarian Race. True Martial Divine Emperor's position was really exaggerated.
Although Buddhism was passed down from the Buddhas of the West, the Buddhists of the East God Prefecture had absorbed many Daoist martial arts and spells. Among the many martial arts that Gao Zhengyang cultivated, many of them were passed down by True Martial Divine Emperor.
Strictly speaking, Gao Zhengyang was also a descendant of True Martial Divine Emperor.
Divine Masters were supreme. To a Divine Master, no life could be above them. Gao Zhengyang had become a Divine Master, so he did not need to lower his head to anyone.
Therefore, be it Limitless Divine Emperor or True Martial Divine Emperor, they would not put on airs of ancestors in front of Gao Zhengyang.
Gao Zhengyang smiled at True Martial Divine Emperor, "I wonder what brings you here?"
From Gao Zhengyang's point of view, Limitless Divine Emperor was Limitless Divine Emperor, True Martial was True Martial, and they could not be confused. Although the three of them were closely related and had great common interests. In the end, they were three different Divine Masters.
True Martial Divine Emperor sized up Gao Zhengyang, then looked at Feng Qingling. He nodded and praised, "To become a Divine Master in a few hundred years, you are the first in history. You are indeed favored by the Human World's destiny. Impressive, impressive. "
True Martial Divine Emperor's voice was low, but it was full of emotions. Just by listening to his voice, one could feel the admiration, admiration, and other emotions he was expressing.
"The main thing is that I am more powerful."
Gao Zhengyang emphasized. He was indeed lucky, but he had relied on himself to get to where he was today.
The True Martial Divine Emperor laughed and said apologetically, "It's my fault for speaking out of turn. Don't blame me. "
Gao Zhengyang gestured, "Since you are here, please sit."
Saint Emperor Zhen Wu didn't refuse. He sat across from Gao Zhengyang and knocked on the table. Two maids in green robes walked over.
"Go and brew a pot of my Heart Cleansing Tea," True Martial Divine Emperor ordered.
The two maids bowed and left. In the blink of an eye, they came back with a pot of hot tea. They even prepared three star-shaped teacups.
The blue teacups were dotted with stars, and they were faintly discernible. The blue tea rose and fell in the teacups, and it seemed to reflect the entire starry sky.
Gao Zhengyang looked inside. The starry sky in the tea kept expanding, and a blue planet was soon revealed.
Gao Zhengyang felt his mind sink, and he fell into the blue planet. He became a babe who was just learning how to speak. Gao Zhengyang watched as the baby grew up, learned martial arts, joined the army, and was injected with titanium alloy. After his death, he transmigrated to the human world.
In the mountains of Eastern Wilderness, Gao Zhengyang was reborn. He learned martial arts, defeated many strong enemies, and improved his cultivation. Finally, he reached the thirteenth level of the Great Void.
Gao Zhengyang's life was condensed in the tea and displayed in an instant. Then, these memories disappeared without a trace like the steam rising from the tea.
When Gao Zhengyang became a Sage, he knew his true nature and organized his life's memories. He organized these memories and turned them into the strongest core of his spirit.
Without memories, living beings would not have a past, and they would lose their true self.
As Gao Zhengyang became stronger, he no longer looked back. Because the past was the past, and there was no meaning in looking back.
Even someone as strong as a Divine Master could not control time. Gao Zhengyang returned to the past. It was just a fragment of the timeline. It was not really returning to the past.
To put it simply, returning to the past was a change in the timeline. No matter how this timeline evolved, it had nothing to do with the current Gao Zhengyang.
Controlling time was a forbidden zone for all powers.
If Divine Masters could control time, the world would have been in chaos. Not to mention the experts of the fourteenth and fifteenth level. If they could control the past and the future, how could they lose?
Time was the only dimension that could not be changed. Only then could everything exist with the dimension of time as the center. If the dimension of time could be changed at will, then everything would be meaningless.
After Gao Zhengyang became a Divine Master, he understood that the past would never change. Only the future was unpredictable and full of variables.
A cup of Heart Cleansing Tea from Zhenwu Divine Emperor could trigger his telepathy. This alone was enough to show how amazing this tea was.
Gao Zhengyang would not be moved by anything. His soul and body were pure and flawless. The Heart Cleansing Tea seemed to have washed him with water. He felt refreshed.
Looking at Feng Qingling, she was smiling happily. Who knew what she was thinking about. Based on Gao Zhengyang's understanding of her, she should be immersed in her own beauty and unable to extricate herself.
"This tea is not bad." Gao Zhengyang praised.
The Heart Cleansing Tea was useless to him, but it was beneficial to Feng Qingling. It was difficult to quantify the effects of this kind of spiritual purification and looking directly at oneself. But the benefits were obvious.
Zhenwu Divine Emperor looked at Feng Qingling, who was immersed in her memories, and said calmly, "Just to show my respect."
Gao Zhengyang said, "You have drunk the tea. Why don't you say what you want?"
Zhenwu Divine Emperor nodded and said, "I like dealing with straightforward people. Then I will say it directly. "
He thought for a while and said, "Limitless is very unhappy with you. You used your heart to erase our ten thousand years of hard work. That is a bit too much. "
Not waiting for Gao Zhengyang to speak, Zhenwu Divine Emperor said, "However, people like us should only look at the results. You can do this. That is your ability. I am very impressed. "
Using one's heart to teach seemed easy. In reality, the Human Realm was the center of the era. The laws were very complicated and powerful. Ordinary God Lords would never be able to transmit their techniques to all living beings in the world.
Zhenwu Divine Emperor knew that he could not do it. Limitless and Primordial could not do it either. Even the Master of the Nine Skies could not do it.
At the level of Divine Master, the essence of power was the laws that they controlled. Every Divine Master controlled different laws. They were also good at different things.
Every Divine Master had their own limitations. It was not strange that Gao Zhengyang could do it but they could not.
Zhenwu Divine Emperor was not angry about this. This was Gao Zhengyang's ability. If he had this ability, he would not hesitate to fight for the Human Realm Fruit.
There was no point in blaming Gao Zhengyang. If he had the ability, the best way was to kill Gao Zhengyang. Limitless Divine Emperor chose this method.
Zhenwu Divine Emperor did not agree. He was known as the Martial God of the Human Realm but he was not aggressive. More importantly, he felt that fighting would not solve Gao Zhengyang's problem. It would only worsen the conflict.
Zhenwu Divine Emperor said seriously, "I feel that fighting will not solve the problem. The Human Realm is the center of the era. We cannot monopolize it and neither can you. Why don't we work together? "
Gao Zhengyang asked, "Didn't you want to fight? Are you going back on your word? "
"Since you made the vow, you cannot go back on your word."
Zhenwu Divine Emperor suggested sincerely, "Why don't you stop and spar a bit? There is no need to fight to the death! "
"Hahaha …"
Gao Zhengyang let out a long laugh. "What kind of people are we? What do you mean by not going overboard? That is not a joke. Since we are fighting, we will fight to the death. If you don't dare, then admit defeat! "
Zhenwu Divine Emperor's eyes were entwined with a tortoise and snake. He revealed an endless aura. "I am just trying to persuade you. Why must you be so overbearing?"
"Overbearing?"
Gao Zhengyang waved his sleeve. "What's the point of saying that? If you are not convinced, you can go up after I take care of Limitless. I will wait for you. "
