Upon entering the Heavenly Palace, Lin Yan saw many corpses sprawled around.
In the bloody pool lay guards and core disciples of the Heavenly Palace.
There were piles of corpses down to the depths of the Heavenly Palace, and the smell of fresh blood filled the air.
It was as if everyone inside the Heavenly Palace had died at this moment.
This appalling situation has caused Lin Yan to become solemn as well. But still, he stepped towards the depths of the Heavenly Palace.
…
(On the Lingxuan Continent)
On seeing the Heavenly Palace's tragic situation on the screen, everyone began to whisper in shock.
After all, this was the Heavenly Palace.
Although the Heavenly Palace ten thousand years ago was relatively weak compared with the present, it was undoubtedly the most powerful on the Lingxuan continent.
Just the former Heavenly Emperor, the strongest, had the cultivation base of the Half-Step Eternal realm. Behind him were many powerful immortals and core disciples with Sage Realm and Dao Attainment Realm.
But almost all the cultivators who were once members of the Heavenly Palace had now turned into corpses.
At this moment, the magnificent Heavenly Palace seemed like a Domain of Death.nextchapterisavailableonthesite.
...
"Did the Heavenly Palace once suffer such a catastrophe ten thousand years ago?"
From the side, Lin Feng and the others couldn't help but glance at Xiao Mei.
At this time, it was only Xiao Mei who knew precisely what happened.
However, Xiao Mei was equally stunned as she stared at the screen above.
"Back then, the Heavenly Palace lost countless elite disciples overnight and seemed to have turned empty... I thought it was the Heavenly Emperor that killed the underlings of my father in order to stabilize his own throne."
With a doubtful expression on her face, Xiao Mei said.
This scene in front of her eyes was too different from what she remembered.
She was too excited to notice the abnormality in the Heavenly Palace when she was told of her marriage with Lin Yan back then.
It wasn't until later that Lin Yan beheaded her father publicly.
Only then did she realize that many old familiar faces in the Heavenly Palace had disappeared and never appeared.
At that time, Xiao Mei, who already held a deep hatred for Lin Yan, subconsciously thought it was him that killed them.
She presumed his motive behind killing them was because they were all loyal to her father.
She hated Lin Yan so much during these ten thousand years, not just because he publicly killed the former Heavenly Emperor.
She thought it was Lin Yan that killed the core disciples of the Heavenly Palace with whom she shared a deep bond.
As Xiao Mei grew up in the Heavenly Palace, almost all of the core disciples of the Heavenly Palace were familiar with her. They were like a family to her.
Xiao Mei almost collapsed when she was informed of the news of their death after a single night.
She could only persist due to pure hatred.
But now, ten thousand years have passed, and she finally learned the truth. The Heavenly Emperor didn't kill the Heavenly Palace's elites.
"Then how did they die? And my father, where is he now?" Xiao Mei looked anxious and kept searching on the screen.
As she watched these scenes, she vaguely realized that all that had happened back then wasn't as simple as it seemed.
...
(Within The Screen In The Sky)
Lin Yan stepped forward and gradually walked into the depths of the Heavenly Palace.
Although Lin Yan rarely left the Heavenly Palace because he served as the Heavenly General for hundreds of years, he was pretty familiar with the architectural layout of the Heavenly Palace.
Along the way, Lin Yan saw many familiar faces, including the Sage Realm cultivators, who were now corpses.
"What the hell is going on? I can't believe even the Heavenly Palace's War General died here."
As Lin Yan walked forward, he was stunned.
Soon, an incredible look appeared on his face.
It was because he saw an immortal's corpse before him.
"Immortal Lu Bing."
Lin Yan quickly stepped forward and carefully examined the corpse of this immortal.
This immortal was named Lu Bing.
Not only was his dantian shattered, but even the vitality in his body had been completely cut off. His soul had also completely disappeared and couldn't be saved even if Lin Yan wished.
An immortal was a powerhouse even in the Heavenly Palace. But such an immortal was now dead.
Seeing the situation at hand, Lin Yan's expression turned complicated.
When he continued forward, the number of immortal corpses that appeared at Lin Yan's feet continued to rise.
In total, only a dozen immortals from the Heavenly Palace were above Lin Yan at the beginning.
But now, these dozen immortals have turned into corpses.
Their death meant the fall of the Heavenly Palace.
With only the former Heavenly Emperor, there was no way he alone could hold up the entire Heavenly Palace.
"Your Highness." Lin Yan spread his divine sense and began to search the entire Heavenly Palace.
In the past, this was considered taboo.
But now, with the Heavenly Palace turning into a Domain of Death, he didn't care.
His face soon turned unsightly when he stepped toward the Celestial Divine furnace Hall.
This Celestial Divine furnace Hall was where the Celestial Divine furnace was placed.
When he stepped inside the Celestial Divine furnace Hall, a familiar figure of the former Heavenly Emperor appeared in front of him.
With a cold smile at the corner of his mouth, the former Heavenly Emperor stood arrogantly beside the Celestial Divine furnace, looking down at the Red Lotus Karma Flame.
When Lin Yan came, only then did the former heavenly emperor slowly turn around and stare arrogantly at him, "Lin Yan, we finally meet... This body is already occupied."nextchapterisavailableonthesite.
...
(On The Lingxuan Continent)
Boom!
Looking at the screen above, almost everyone felt their bodies shake and their heads buzz.
A Phaseless... Devil?!
A Phaseless Devil possessed the former Heavenly Emperor with the Half-Step Eternal Realm cultivation base?!
They have watched the memory screen of the former Heavenly Emperor for so long.
Although they had long realized how frightening the Phaseless Devil was than the Extraterrestrial Devils, they hadn't expected them to be this terrifying.
Even the former Heavenly Emperor, who was a Half-Step Eternal Realm cultivator, was completely possessed by it.
"If the former Heavenly Emperor was possessed by the Phase-less Devil, then it must not be that he killed all the people of the Heavenly Palace from before, right?"
"Most likely. The entire Heavenly Palace was destroyed by the former Heavenly Emperor himself… I'm afraid no one thought of it."
"The Heavenly Palace was the result of the former Heavenly Emperor's hard work. Even if the Phaseless Devil is expelled from the body of the former Heavenly Emperor, I'm afraid the former Heavenly Emperor couldn't come to accept this."
Everyone began to mutter quietly among themselves.
Hearing these mutters from the people around her, Xiao Mei was stunned.
Her father had always been a perfect figure in her mind. He wasn't only gentle in character but was also caring to her.
But now, the former Heavenly Emperor on the screen above her head wasn't only possessed by a Phase-less Heavenly Devil; he had even killed many Heavenly Palace disciples.
Even if the former Heavenly Emperor survived and saw what he had done, she was afraid he wouldn't be able to accept this cruel reality.
"Is this why the Heavenly Emperor beheaded my father in public?" Xiao Mei's face turned pale, and her body trembled.
If everything that happened then was what she saw, then whom had she hated for the past ten thousand years?
