Chapter 639 -365 The True Face of the Immortal Assembly_1
“`
Every Heavenly Lord is a legend, their paths to growth filled with remarkable adventures, hair-raising escapes from death, and the enlightenment that comes after defeating powerful enemies.
A sect that gives birth to a Heavenly Lord is an extraordinary sect.
Whenever a Heavenly Lord is born, it is a grand event in the cultivation world, signifying that another Immortal has reached the end of the Immortal Road and attained eternity.
Until Fang Cheng emerged.
When Fang Cheng achieved the status of Heavenly Lord, the other Heavenly Lords faded into obscurity, for they realized that the gap between Heavenly Lords seemed even greater than that between Heavenly Lords and Immortals.
The Demon Lords also started holding their breath and focusing intently, afraid that if Fang Cheng had a whim, he would slice them up neatly and use them to accompany his wine.
After Fang Cheng became a Heavenly Lord, the original status of the Heavenly Lords was lost, and the Gathering of Stars dimmed with the appearance of the bright day, ushering in a new era for the cultivation world—a peaceful yet tedious era.
Looking at Fang Cheng before him, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord’s expression was somewhat absent-minded, but it soon turned to one of respect.
Bowing deeply, he said in a low voice, “Great Heavenly Lord, you are well, I trust?”
“Hmm. If it weren’t for your sudden awakening, I would not have known you were hiding among these souls, and I almost sent you into reincarnation. How did you come to hide here?”
Zhiyi Heavenly Lord gave a bitter smile: “Of course, it was to avoid those enemies.”
“Those? Oh, you mean those sentient beings?”
Upon mentioning them, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord’s expression became extremely solemn: “That’s right. Heavenly Lord Fang, I presume you’ve already encountered them, so you must be aware of how terrifying they are. They are Heavenly Demons from outside our domain, from places we have never ventured into. I fear that even you, Heavenly Lord Fang, might not be able to contend with them. Now that you have found this place, they must have discovered it too. We need to leave immediately to prevent their arrival.”
“Is that so?” Fang Cheng asked, excitedly.
He had not been idle during this time, constantly searching with his Primordial Spirit, aiming to find the location of that sentient being.
But the other party was too cunning, and he could not find their whereabouts no matter what, so he had been idle.
If the enemy could truly deliver themselves to his doorstep, he could save a lot of time.
Zhiyi Heavenly Lord, seeing Fang Cheng actually getting excited, said earnestly, “Heavenly Lord Fang, I know you have been invincible for a long time, suppressing all prodigies under heaven, but remember there are heavens beyond heaven, people beyond people, and above Immortals are still Immortals. Those beings truly are different.”
“No matter, just tell me, do you know of any way to summon them?”
Zhiyi stared wide-eyed at Fang Cheng, feeling that the behavior of this Great Heavenly Lord since his awakening was peculiar.
Still, he responded seriously: “Great Heavenly Lord, to avoid those Heavenly Demons from outside the domain, we had no choice but to recreate a universe, use Silent Time, and then hide here. Yet, even so, they persist like haunting ghosts, endlessly pursuing us. The secret arts they possess are far stronger than any we know, and confronting them now would be disadvantageous. Our immediate priority should be to find the other Heavenly Lords so we can join forces and escape from here.”
“So, you don’t know how to summon them?” Fang Cheng asked, disappointed.
Hearing this, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord knew that his words had been in vain.
But that was just the way Heavenly Lord Fang was; his overwhelming power caused his thought processes and priorities to differ completely from those of other Immortals, though in the end, it always proved that the Great Heavenly Lord was right.
Absolute power allowed him to disregard all tricks, all conspiracies, all schemes. Even if he were calculated against by someone using the Divine Skill of foretelling, he remained unconcerned.
This was the confidence that strength brought.
However, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord knew that this time was completely different.
The terror of the Heavenly Demons from outside the domain was beyond imagination, and even Fang Cheng might not be able to withstand those beings.
Therefore, he continued to advise: “Most Heavenly Lords are being monitored, which is also why I willingly retreated here and chose to forget everything. It’s one of the few ways to evade the surveillance of the Heavenly Demons from outside the domain. Had it not been for your arrangement, I would not have awakened. But now that I am awake, they will soon send someone over to annihilate me.”
As he spoke, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord suddenly looked up.
Above him, a massive void began to emerge, part of the space coalescing as something enormous appeared and charged towards Zhiyi Heavenly Lord’s location.
Seeing the colossal entity above him, Zhiyi Heavenly Lord’s eyes gleamed with enlightenment.
His power began to return, the latent forces converging back to him at this moment, enhancing his strength once again to the level of a Heavenly Lord.
A magnificent robe draped over him, and the heaven and earth around him transformed into a vast chessboard. The black holes and white holes around became chess pieces, landing on his board and becoming part of his Chessboard Array.
A solemn atmosphere spread at this moment, and Zhiyi Heavenly Lord, just a ghostly Heavenly Lord moments ago, now displayed his full might, ready to sacrifice himself to let Fang Cheng escape.

“Great Heavenly Lord, please leave quickly.”
Zhiyi Heavenly Lord’s aura continued to surge, his mana bursting skyward, like a bridge connecting heaven and earth, impossible to ignore.
In the ascending white light, Zhiyi said, “It is a joy to see you, Great Heavenly Lord, before I die. And before my death, it is even more joyous to pass on my mantle.”
