"Have you heard? The gate of the Hell Temple has finally opened!"
"What?! Could it be that the Lord of Hell has already broken through to the peak of the upper god realm!"
"That's for sure. It's said that someone saw the Lord of Hell in the temple from afar. His aura was as high as a mountain overlooking an abyss, unattainable! If he wasn't at the peak of the Upper God Realm, how could he have such a terrifying aura?"
In the Elders' House.
The big tiger's eyes were filled with tears as he kowtowed deeply in the direction of the Divine Emperor Palace, "God bless my Divine Realm, God bless my Divine Realm!"
When the other elders saw the chief elder kneeling, they immediately followed suit.
Someone couldn't help but ask, "Great Elder, has the Underworld God really broken through to the peak of the Upper God Realm?"
The Great Elder exhaled deeply and said, "In fact, as early as the day when the Divine Emperor Trial ended, when I saw Ji Mingyu, I felt that his aura had changed and became much stronger than before."
“Perhaps at that time, he had already broken through to the peak of the Upper God Realm, but because his realm was still unstable, he chose to practice in seclusion.”
Everyone was delighted when they heard this, and they were filled with envy and admiration.
A man who had just turned ten thousand years old and was at the peak of the Upper God Realm, had such talent that people like them simply couldn't even think about it, let alone be jealous.
"Speaking of which, Elder Duanmu and Elder Sikong haven't appeared for a long time!"
"Haha, Divine Venerable Wu Ling, Divine Venerable Qing Li and Divine Venerable Chi Ye failed the second trial, and ninety-nine percent of them are no longer qualified to compete for the position of Divine Emperor. Although their cultivation is still at the Upper Divine Realm, it is only the initial stage of the Upper Divine Realm, and once the true Divine Emperor is determined, they will be exiled. In this way, these three families will inevitably scatter. Do you think they will still be in the mood to come to the Elders' Council to handle official business?"
Speaking of these three families, everyone who stayed in the Council of Elders couldn't help but gloat over their misfortune.
"That old bastard Huangfu Yuan used to be so arrogant to us and didn't take us seriously because he relied on himself as a candidate for the Divine Emperor. Now he is reaping the fruits of his own labor, right? I wonder if he still has the nerve to show off in front of us!"
"The Duanmu family and the Sikong family are the same. Everyone in the God Realm knows that the three families have used all their clans' strength to become God Lords. Although they are in the upper God realm, how can they compare with the God Lord of the Underworld who relied on his own strength to step up step by step? Now that they have failed, the God Lord who did not become the God Emperor will be exiled. They can be said to have lost more than they gained."
The Great Elder coughed lightly to stop their discussion. "Okay, stop talking. In any case, Huangfu, Duanmu, and Sikong are all the pillars of our Divine Domain. Their network of relationships is intricate in the Eighty-one Cloud Island. A single move can affect the entire body."
“Before the Divine Emperor truly ascends the throne and the Divine Realm stabilizes, we must not allow any family to become alienated and cause the Divine Realm to tremble. Otherwise, the consequences will be unbearable for anyone.”
The elders were all shocked when they heard this. They dared not say anything more and bowed their heads to receive instruction.
The responsibility of the Council of Elders is to maintain the balance of power among all parties in the divine realm.
The Great Elder Shangguan Qingyun is the most selfless person, who is only concerned about the overall situation and the people of the world.
He would give his full support to anyone or anything that was good for the Divine Realm.

More than a month later, the gate of the Temple of Hell was finally opened, and the closed barrier disappeared.
The servants in the temple began to go in and out, buying some necessities. (To be continued)
