Chapter 784: Chapter Seventy-eight: Controlling the Spirit but not the Heart, Cultivating Qi but not the Soul

Inside the Four Imperial Spirit Realms, next to the Han River’s Holy Altar, Tang Luo’s face grew stern as he listened to Gong Shu’s tale.

In the ancient times, monstrous beasts rampaged, and the dynasty was tyrannical. The human race faced not only the threat of the beasts but also the oppression from their own kind. The law of the jungle stripped the dignity of those at the bottom.

At that time, there was the Divine Dynasty called Qi, ruled by the Gao clan, later known as Gao Qi. Their clan understood beast language and demon speech. Longzhou was occupied by countless Demon Kings, but only Gao Qi’s dynasty remained unharmed. Therefore, the people of Longzhou regarded Qi as a holy place and flocked to it.

However, no matter how many humans flocked to Qi, which was free from monstrous beast invasions, the population never increased. Apart from each generation of Qi’s rulers being cruel and brutal, it turned out that the peace kept by the Qi Dynasty was the result of a sordid deal between the Gao clan and the Demon Race.

The Qi dynasty offered one hundred thousand souls every month to the King of Demonic Bats, who was not yet the Blood Lord, in exchange for his protection of the Qi capital.

When the chancellor of the divine dynasty learned the truth behind the peace of Qi, he alerted the world and, taking several vassal families, sought refuge in the Minor Spiritual Realm. To prevent being found by the Gao Qi Dynasty, they shattered the realm stone, allowing the Minor Spiritual Realm to drift in the Endless Void for over 1,200 years.

“So, you’re the descendants of the chancellor of Qi who took refuge in the Spirit Realm?” Tang Luo interrupted Gong Shu with a wave of his hand and a frown, “Then explain to me why this Minor Spiritual Realm has been wandering in the void for more than a thousand years without accumulating enough spiritual power to stabilize. Is it because the drifting of the Minor Spiritual Realm was invigorating, or you were trying to fool me?” He glanced at the severed arm on the ground and said lightly, “It seems that losing an arm hasn’t taught you honesty…”

“This Minor Spiritual Realm is not an ordinary one. It’s a fragment of a certain collapsed Great Thousand World. The spiritual power required to stabilize it
