Chapter 91: Chapter 91: The Trial of All Disciples and His Son
The vast expanse of the Heavenly Mystic Sect was buzzing with excitement as Chan Li stood before his gathered disciples. After his long-awaited return, the sect had grown stronger than ever. But now, a new challenge lay ahead a trial that would shape the future of his sect and his legacy.
Chan Li had long been observing the Realm of Gods, a place ruled by arrogant, ancient deities who thrived on war and destruction. Their existence posed a significant threat to the balance of the cosmos. If left unchecked, they could one day set their sights on the Mortal and Technology Realms. He had no interest in ruling them out of greed, but for the sake of stability, he decided that the Heavenly Mystic Sect would claim dominion over the Realm of Gods.
Standing atop the Grand Pavilion, his voice echoed through the entire sect.
"Today marks the beginning of a grand trial. I have chosen my most promising disciples and my son, Chan Lang, to undertake a mission of great importance. Your task is to subdue and establish dominance over the Realm of Gods. This is not just a battle it is a test of your will, strength, and intelligence. The gods of old refuse to acknowledge anything beneath them, but we shall make them recognize the power of our sect!"
A thunderous cheer erupted from the disciples. Their leader's words were absolute, and none doubted his judgment. Those chosen for the mission stepped forward, their auras radiating power. Among them was Chan Lang, who clenched his fists in determination.
The Selected Warriors
The disciples chosen for this mission were all beyond the realm of gods, having achieved legendary cultivation heights. They were the paragons of their generation, each with unique expertise:
Feng Xuan – Master of Heavenly Sword Slaying Gods Technique
Mo Ying – Supreme Shadow Formation Master
Bai Wei – Alchemy Saint and Healer
Shen Ru – Grand Formation Architect
Chan Lang – Son of Chan Li, a rising prodigy still finding his true strength
Chan Li smirked. "Now, before you all go charging in like reckless fools, remember that this is not about destruction it's about control. If you wipe out every god you see, who will be left to rule?"
The disciples nodded in understanding. Even in war, strategy was key.
The Journey to the Realm of Gods
With a wave of Chan Li's hand, a massive spatial gate appeared before them, swirling with divine energy. The disciples stepped through, instantly transported to the realm above all realms.
The Realm of Gods was breathtaking floating cities of golden palaces, vast celestial rivers, and lands brimming with divine essence. However, the arrogance of its rulers tainted its beauty. The gods looked down upon all beings beneath them, considering mortals and cultivators alike as mere insects.
Upon arrival, the disciples were immediately met with hostility. The ancient gods, sensing intruders, gathered their celestial armies. Thousands of divine soldiers, led by towering deities clad in golden armor, descended upon the sect's warriors.
A booming voice resounded through the heavens. "Mere mortals dare to set foot in our sacred lands? You will perish for your insolence!"
Feng Xuan stepped forward, gripping his divine sword. "Talk all you want. Let's see if your strength matches your arrogance."
And with that, the battle began.
The skies roared with power as divine and celestial energies clashed. Feng Xuan's sword sliced through multiple divine warriors, his movements like lightning. Mo Ying weaved through the battlefield, using his shadow techniques to dismantle divine formations. Bai Wei, the Alchemy Saint, unleashed powerful elixirs that enhanced his allies while poisoning enemies. Shen Ru rapidly constructed barriers and counter-formations, weakening the enemy's divine spells.
Chan Lang found himself up against a mighty war god, the Titan of Thunder, Rael'Zhun. The god smirked at him, sending a devastating bolt of divine lightning. Chan Lang barely dodged, his heart racing. He knew he wasn't yet as strong as the others, but this was his chance to prove himself.
Closing his eyes, he focused. His father had always told him true strength doesn't come from techniques alone but from the heart. With that realization, Chan Lang unleashed his newfound technique Heavenly Tai Chi Reversal redirecting the god's lightning back at him, stunning Rael'Zhun momentarily.
Chan Li, who was watching from afar through a divine mirror, smirked. "Not bad, kid. You're finally getting it."
The Subjugation of the Gods
As the battle raged on, the once-mighty gods began to falter. The Heavenly Mystic Sect's warriors were unlike anything they had faced before. One by one, the arrogant gods were subdued, their palaces seized, their divine thrones overturned.
In the final confrontation, the Supreme God Almora, The Eternal Sky, descended in a blaze of celestial flames. "You seek to claim dominion over the divine? You dare challenge the heavens?!"
Feng Xuan and Mo Ying stepped forward, prepared to fight, but then, the sky split apart.
Chan Li appeared.
His presence alone silenced the battlefield.
Almora, once prideful and untouchable, took a step back instinctively. He could not comprehend the unfathomable aura before him. "You… who are you?"
Chan Li smirked. "Who am I? The one who now owns this realm."
With a mere flick of his wrist, Almora was sent crashing to the ground, unable to move. The realm of gods had fallen.
Chan Li turned to his disciples. "Congratulations, you passed your trial. You now control the Realm of Gods. Treat it well, or I'll come and scold you."
As the disciples cheered, the celestial realm trembled under its new rulers. The once arrogant gods now bowed before the might of the Heavenly Mystic Sect.
