Chapter 588: Memory Modification within the Red Heaven Range

“Qu Mo, this is not like the time of the Monarch; it feels more like a time after a Monarch has fallen,” the Tong Tian ancestor gazed at his younger generation.

“There is a reason for everything. This Fourth Heaven that shrouds the Heavenly Continent originated from the Spirit Monarch, the previous Monarch. He fell due to the arrival of the World God, and his Resentment fused with the Fourth Heaven, forming this dark canopy. The current Monarch was only established a hundred years ago…” replied the Honored Being named Qu Mo, shaking his head slowly.

“A hundred years? I haven’t sensed the Fifth Heaven, and what do you mean, the World God has descended?” The Tong Tian ancestor frowned, wondering why he had not been informed of such a significant matter. Did they not want this ancient being to meddle?

“Haha, Tong Tian old monster, you have fallen behind the times. The Divine General is yet to become a Monarch, yet is already invincible in the world. He is indeed the current uncrowned Monarch! The Fifth Heaven? It is utterly unnecessary; the Red Heaven has already surrendered!” A loud voice echoed through the skies as a majestic figure descended.

“Zi Yun, after surviving for such a long time, why suddenly admit age? Who is the Divine General?” The Tong Tian ancestor narrowed his eyes.

The newcomer was large in stature, standing on a qilin of purple clouds, an ancient Honored Being from the Blue Ice Purple Snow Dao Palace, a powerful monster from twenty-six thousand years ago who shared the same era as the Tong Tian ancestor. He, too, had been awakened by the disturbances of the Still Sea. While he might overlook the battle for the Monarch’s title, he could not ignore the Still Sea.

“Admit age? How could I arrive at today without doing so? It just so happened that I stumbled upon a great change and pushed a little with my calculations. With such a reverse liberation figure emerging, there is no longer any room for us old monsters to act arrogantly,” replied the Zi Yun Honored Being.

“…” The Tong Tian ancestor’s expression shifted slightly as he began to calculate with his fingers, gathering information from the Heavenly Continent with his not particularly profound Spirit Law.

He understood the Zi Yun old monster well; having come from the Blue Ice Purple Snow Dao Palace, while not reaching the heights of his predecessors, he was confident of being a contemporary hero.

And now he was expressing such admiration?

There were far too many cultivators in the vast Heavenly Continent, and now that a hundred years had passed, various pieces of information had circulated. He quickly pieced together the events from a hundred years ago.

He struggled to come to terms with the shock: a Mystic Realm cultivator had repelled celestial clans wielding the Heavenly Crown Artifact?

No wonder…

No wonder even the Zi Yun old monster referred to him as the uncrowned Monarch!

“It seems you have understood; the destruction of the Still Sea is imminent. This is not a matter that can be hidden. I fear we will soon receive an invitation.”

As soon as the Zi Yun old monster finished speaking, a chaotic Great Dao extended from the horizon.

It was the power of the Divine General from the Earth Continent, a terrifying force that left no room for hesitation.

The two exchanged glances, and the Zi Yun old monster spread his hands, “Just as I thought.”

“I have not been invited and cannot attend. Ancestor, be cautious; this is a Divine General who exerts pressure over the Red Heaven,” Qu Mo spoke up.

The Tong Tian ancestor chuckled quietly. He understood the implications better than Qu Mo and, alongside the Zi Yun old monster, stepped onto the chaotic Great Dao—

In that moment, they witnessed the cycles of life and death, as everything turned to ash and vanished. In the blink of an eye, they crossed the distance between heaven and earth, arriving at the Earth Continent.

Ethereal Energy enveloped them, and a magnificent, ethereal celestial palace came into view. The White Jade Path extended towards the heavenly palace, yet it seemed that great magical power restrained everything, forbidding flight and spatial traversal.

“Honored Beings, please,” said the Divine General at the Gate of Heaven.

The two Honored Beings lightly nodded and had no choice but to proceed. As they took their first step, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended upon them, causing their figures to stiffen.

After a moment, the two began to walk step by step towards the heavenly palace. This path was not simple; they faced numerous pressures that made each step difficult.

At the same time, many mysteries revealed themselves along the way, and the more they walked, the more delightful the exploration became.

“The New Heaven Path, the road of the Divine General’s teachings!”

When they reached the end,

they naturally comprehended the significance of this path in their minds.

This is not a path that just anyone can walk. It contains the profound truth of the Divine Master of the Heavenly Stem, the Master who opens the heavens with the Heavenly Stems, standing at the end of all laws.

The reason they can walk this New Heaven Path lies in their connection to the Still Sea.

In the end, they met the ruler of the New Heaven Dynasty, the Divine Master of the Heavenly Stem, Shui Changdong.

Both of them were slightly taken aback.

Because this Master wore a light blue robe, exuding a peaceful aura, showing no signs of being the domineering figure who faced celestial clans and proclaimed himself invincible, acting as the monarch of a generation.

There were no other beings around. The two immediately clasped their hands and bowed, saying, “Greetings, Divine Master of the Heavenly Stem.”

They had experienced the era of monarchs, but it was still extraordinary to break through the Red Heaven blockade in the Mystic Realm and sweep through adversity.

They felt a bit fearful in their hearts and dared not show any signs of negligence.

“You two do not need to be overly polite; please have a seat.”

The two sat down, sitting up straight, their eyes focused, waiting for the Master to speak.

“You two should know my purpose for inviting you, but before that, I need to ask you another question; can you answer?”

“Everything we know will be shared openly,” both said.

“Very well.” As the Master spoke, chaotic energy spread, severing the connection between this place and the outside world. The expressions of the two Honored Beings changed; such a big operation?

Who are they trying to block from seeing?

Celestials?

“The question is a bit troubling; if I do not block your perception, I do not know what might happen… You two, can you experience the future of the Path Lord era?”

The Divine Master of the Heavenly Stem inquired.

“The future… Path Lord?”

“Correct. Tong Ming Qiong, the Cosmic Monarch, the one who achieves the Celestial Principle True Immortal.”

“…”

The expressions of the two Honored Beings became strained. Is this something that can be asked about the True Immortal?

“Your Excellency, I did not revive during the Path Lord era and do not know the details.”

“Every unsealing comes with significant costs, and the consciousness must also be sealed. Regarding the future of the Path Lord, we only learned of it after half of the Still Sea collapsed; by that time, the Path Lord had long since become immortal.”

They firmly shook their heads.

— They were not lying.

Yun Ye slightly nodded.

It seems that not only history but the memories of the related individuals have also been altered. Logically, the Honored Beings left behind ten thousand years ago should be numerous, yet in reality, there is no news proving any issues with the War of the Dual Emperors, even the Royal Path inheritance believes that Tong Ming Qiong achieved immortality only after battling the God Destruction Clan.

This is not something that a True Immortal’s command can bury in secrecy. Humans always harbor a sense of luck…

Only the complete erasure of collective memories can make this portion of history vanish from the world.

Perhaps it seems wonderful from a mortal’s perspective, but at Yun Ye’s level, this kind of operation can only be considered grand, not a miracle.

As long as it is a Royal Path power, they can completely arrange rituals to intervene under the monarch’s power in the Red Heaven.

The real challenge is how to modify everyone’s memories without missing anyone.

There are many old monsters lurking in the shadows, and these beings have countless methods; avoiding a broad Spirit Law and even powers is not difficult.

In this situation, it can only be led by celestial clans, utilizing the power of the Dao Classics to complete the ritual.

During battles, Ni Xin Guang had her Spirit Sense waves read multiple times by Yun Ye. She was aware of the Water Emperor’s existence and understood the Divine Artifact she used very well.

Perhaps the Nizi Clan is not the Executors, but they must certainly be participants, erasing the future Path Lord’s path to becoming a True Immortal.
