And now, he brought up the issue of the Abyss of Chaos again.
After all, the matter of it possibly originating from outside the Chaos was of great importance. Although he couldn't make any arrangements regarding the Abyss of Chaos at the moment, he had to collect useful information in advance.
“Reporting to Your Majesty, that is correct,”
the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate said respectfully.
“I see.”
Xuan Ming nodded inwardly.
As before, the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate, who came from the Abyss of Chaos, had forgotten why he had transformed into an Ancient Demon of the Abyss. But since coming out, the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate had been extremely wary of the Abyss of Chaos, not daring to approach it.
Even after cultivating to his current realm, it was still the same.
This made Xuan Ming feel a strange sensation.
“Could it be that the thing that transformed the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate and the power that makes living beings forget everything they experienced in the Abyss of Chaos don't belong to the same lineage, and their relationship is even antagonistic…?”
“Otherwise, how could the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate have such a strange feeling?” Xuan Ming rubbed his chin, guessing.
Being able to transform the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate in such a way must mean that someone had set up a scheme on him, wanting him to work for them in the future after he achieved something.
However, he never dared to return to the Abyss of Chaos because of the thin film barrier covering it, which was obviously abnormal.
As for saying that the other party's scheme was originally intended to keep the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate in the Chaos, that was also a possibility.
It's just that the existence of the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate indirectly enhances the foundation of the Chaos and doesn't cause any harm.
If that was true, then the mastermind behind the scheme on the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate was on the side of the Chaos.
However, based on the information Xuan Ming had gathered all along, he felt that the thin film barrier covering the Abyss of Chaos was on the side of the Chaos.
After all, the interior of the Abyss of Chaos was extremely turbulent, but the barrier had been blocking it from wreaking havoc on the Chaos. Moreover, any Abyss Evil Spirits or Evil Immortals that could pose a threat to the Chaos would return to normal after passing through the barrier.
Compared to the mastermind behind the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate, the latter seemed more beneficial to the Chaos.
“Interesting…”
Xuan Ming murmured.
From this, one could vaguely glimpse that the mysterious Abyss of Chaos had likely been divided into two major camps all along.
One side protects the Chaos, while the other's purpose is unknown…
“Report, Your Majesty, Ancient Heavenly Venerate is outside the palace with an old man seeking an audience!”
Just as Xuan Ming was pondering.
A palace guard respectfully entered and reported.
“Let him in,” Xuan Ming waved his hand and said.
He had already seen Ancient Heavenly Venerate capture that Eternal Dao Lord, so he was naturally not surprised by Ancient Heavenly Venerate's purpose in coming.
“Understood!” The palace guard respectfully withdrew.
Soon, Ancient Heavenly Venerate led the Hun Tian World Lord into the palace.
As soon as he arrived, the Hun Tian World Lord, standing behind Ancient Heavenly Venerate, was horrified when he saw Xuan Ming.

Chapter 656: Confirming the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court, Let Hun Tian World Merge into the Immortal Court
............
“How is this possible!?”
The Hun Tian World Lord stood there dumbfounded.
After entering the Xuan Imperial Palace, the first person he saw was the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate. At that time, he was very surprised. After all, with the status of the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate, even if he wasn't above others, he should be on equal footing. How could he be standing below, looking like a subordinate?
But when his gaze converged on the figure on the imperial throne, his mind boomed, and he instantly ignored everything.
“Impudent, you still haven't paid your respects after seeing His Majesty?”
A powerful hand slapped the Hun Tian World Lord's head.
With a bang, it pulled the Hun Tian World Lord back from distant memories.
“Pay respects? Right…”
The Hun Tian World Lord hurriedly kowtowed.
“What, are you surprised to see Us?”
Xuan Ming's gaze fell on the Hun Tian World Lord, a strange look flashing across his eyes.
With his eyesight, he could naturally see the Hun Tian World Lord's reaction.
He had some guesses in his heart about this.
“This little immortal didn't expect to see the Emperor Lord here. I was a little失态. Please forgive this little immortal's impoliteness, Emperor Lord!”
The Hun Tian World Lord seemed to have confirmed something, and a touch of excitement appeared on his face as he bowed respectfully again.
“As expected.” Xuan Ming nodded inwardly.
Nowadays, most of the Eternal Dao Lords in the Chaos belong to the batch nurtured during the creation of the world. According to the timeline, these Eternal Dao Lords must recognize the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
And Xuan Ming observed that the appearances of his various reincarnated bodies were almost identical, so he thought that the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court also looked like him.
Therefore, as Xuan Ming expected, the reason why this Eternal Dao Lord reacted so strongly to seeing him was related to the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
This also indirectly confirmed once again that he was indeed a reincarnated body of the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
“Rise,” Xuan Ming said calmly, waving his hand.
Although he had not yet merged the memories of the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court, Xuan Ming had long possessed the majesty of the Immortal Court Emperor Lord, and his cultivation was higher than that of the Hun Tian World Lord, so he would naturally not be nervous or make mistakes.
“Thank you, Emperor Lord,” the Hun Tian World Lord said with an excited expression.
At first, he was only shocked that Xuan Ming's appearance was so similar to that of the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court, and he couldn't confirm whether Xuan Ming was the Lord of the Heavenly Court. But after Xuan Ming spoke, he thought about it and inexplicably confirmed this point.
It should be known that the Lord of the Heavenly Court was the first transcendence since the creation of the world, and everything about him had been imprinted in the Chaos, with great karma. It was impossible for outsiders to be involved.
The existence in front of him had such a consistent appearance with him. Apart from the Lord of the Heavenly Court, there could be no one else. That was why he directly said it excitedly.
And this also greatly shocked his mind.
Since the first Myriad Immortals Assembly, the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court had never appeared again. Even those Heavenly Monarchs of the Heavenly Court couldn't see him.
Rumor had it that the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court had long disappeared.
Now, the years of his disappearance were unknown, and the entire Chaos situation had undergone great changes.
He never thought that he would be able to see the true body of the Lord of the Ancient Heavenly Court here today.
“You came here because your subordinates, the few Dao-Integrating Saints, set foot on this place, right?”
Xuan Ming asked calmly.
Although he hadn't asked about the Hun Tian World Lord's identity, after enslaving Shang Guang Saint and others, he was very familiar with the Hun Tian Great Dao. The Hun Tian World Lord's rich Hun Tian Great Dao aura made Xuan Ming recognize him at first glance.
“Emperor Lord is indeed as wise as a god.”
“This little immortal did come for this reason.”
The Hun Tian World Lord gritted his teeth and answered truthfully.
If someone else were in charge here, he might have concealed something.
But facing Xuan Ming, it was impossible for him to lie.
“There's no need to look for them anymore,” Xuan Ming said lightly.
Hearing this, the Hun Tian World Lord fell silent. In fact, when he saw Ancient Heavenly Venerate, he already understood why Hun Tian World had repeatedly suffered changes in this place.
Not to mention that Xuan Ming was also here.
In this moment, he no longer had the initial thoughts of coming.
“I wonder what Emperor Lord's intention is regarding this matter?” The Hun Tian World Lord pondered slightly and asked.
Whether it was the loss of contact with forces like the Ao Immortal Sect or the transfer of Shang Guang Saint and others to other Eternal Great Daos, since it had already happened, there naturally had to be a result. However, the current situation obviously didn't qualify him to handle it, so he could only ask the Emperor Lord to make the decision.
“They have already joined the Immortal Court. This point cannot be changed. Next, you should bring Hun Tian World and merge it into the Immortal Court. We can promise you a Heavenly Palace position!” Xuan Ming said.
“A Heavenly Palace position!!”
Hearing this, the Hun Tian World Lord's pupils shrank.
It wasn't because the Emperor Lord wanted Hun Tian World to merge into the Immortal Court, but because of the term Heavenly Palace.
As an Eternal Dao Lord, apart from transcendence, nothing else in the world could affect his mind. However, over the long years, his cultivation had been difficult to achieve results. The path of relying on his own cultivation had been proven difficult to follow, and the Hun Tian World Lord urgently needed external guidance.
That was why, in addition to relying on the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate, he also had the idea of seeking lectures. But now, Xuan Ming's words gave him another hope.
It should be known that at the beginning of the Chaos, the Emperor Lord created the Chaos Heavenly Court and established the positions of the Ten Great Heavenly Palaces. To this day, the Palace Lords of the Ten Great Heavenly Palaces have all stepped into the realm of transcendence, invincible throughout the ages.
Although being conferred as the Palace Lord of a Heavenly Palace doesn't necessarily mean that one will become a Daoist of Transcendence, the Ten Great Heavenly Palaces of the Chaos Heavenly Court still aroused a strange feeling in his heart. In addition, with the Emperor Lord himself and the Demon Abyss Heavenly Venerate, he almost instantly decided to accept Xuan Ming's instructions.
As for Hun Tian World, it was just something he had built to save time, ordering his subordinates to find living beings in the heavens to cultivate their own Great Daos. In essence, it was just an object to him.
Even if it was all gone, he wouldn't care. After all, with his cultivation, creating another Hun Tian World would only be a matter of time. Moreover, Hun Tian World wasn't destroyed, it just had another master.
And in the past, during the Chaos Heavenly Court period, he was just one of the 360 Zhou Tian Dao-Integrating Saints. Now, carrying Hun Tian World to become a Palace Lord, in a sense, he was promoted.
While the Hun Tian World Lord's thoughts were active in his mind.
Xuan Ming flipped his right hand, and a Dao Demon Seed releasing ancient immortal radiance quietly floated.
The ability of the Dao Demon Seed was similar to the enslavement function of the Main God Prison.
With his current cultivation, it wasn't impossible to control the Hun Tian World Lord using the Dao Demon Seed.
The reason why he used the Main God Prison to enslave Shang Guang Saint before was simply because the Main God Prison had the ability to shield karma perception, and the enslavement process wouldn't alarm the Hun Tian World Lord.
And now, the Hun Tian World Lord himself was the source, so even if the Dao Demon Seed controlled him, it wouldn't alarm anyone, and it would be much faster than the Main God Prison.
Xuan Ming naturally wouldn't waste time.
“Swallow it, and then go bring Hun Tian World here.”
