Chapter 508: Chapter 373 Sky-covering Canyon, Phoenix Clan_2
```
If the divine soul undergoes a transformation, who knows what the situation will be? It's very much anticipated.
```
```
"Time to set up the array!"
```
```
Li Cheng rose to his feet and hastened to the Mansion Venerable City of Heaven Leisure Mansion.
```
```
Since the Confucian Sect was within the bounds of Heaven Leisure Mansion, Mansion Venerable City was naturally the closest, so he started from there.
```
```
Although he had already grasped the Heaven Gang Earth Sha Array, the one hundred and eight Taoist God Platforms required the inscription of array patterns, and simply activating them with divine power was not enough; they had to be activated with Supreme power.
```
```
Senior Sister Bai Qingming had asked him to refine the pair of gauntlets, precisely to make use of the Supreme power within them.
```
```
Li Cheng's divine soul power was close to the edge of shedding its old self; he directly imprinted various seals on the gauntlets with his divine soul power. By the time he arrived at Mansion Venerable City, he had already gained control over the gauntlets.
```
```
Putting on the gauntlets, Li Cheng formed seals with his hands, and various array patterns emerged, imprinting on the Taoist God Platform.
```
```
It took a full month to complete the inscriptions on the Taoist God Platform before him.
```
```
"A Supreme Array takes quite some time to set up. It looks like it will take nine years to set up completely, not counting the time spent traveling via transmission arrays. By then, everyone should be able to return."
```
```
Li Cheng muttered to himself as he rushed to the next mansion.
```
```
After nearly ten years, Li Cheng had finally completed the array pattern inscriptions on the last Taoist God Platform. At that moment, the auras of the one hundred and eight Taoist God Platforms connected, and an invisible force swept across the entire Divine Realm!
```
```
More precisely, it shrouded the one hundred and eight mansions of the Human Tribe, with the territories of the Wan Race surrounding them.
```
```
It could only cover the territories of the Human Tribe, and that was simply unavoidable. As a mid-stage Divine Emperor-level cultivator, achieving this much was quite remarkable.
```
```
To set up an array that could envelop the entire Divine Realm was probably something that only those in the Supreme Realm could accomplish.
```
```
As for the living beings or Dead Spirits outside the one hundred and eight mansions, they probably would have to be moved there first, but that wasn't Li Cheng's concern—the Chaos Yuan Great Venerable would make arrangements.
```
```
"This Supreme Array's power is limited and can only withstand the peak Human Supreme beings for a short time. If a complete Human Supreme being comes, they could forcefully break through in just one hour," Bai Qingming appeared beside Li Cheng.
```
```
Li Cheng saluted Bai Qingming with a clasped fist and nodded slightly, "With my current mastery of arrays, setting up a more powerful Supreme Array would definitely be difficult. This Heaven Gang Earth Sha Array happens to be just right."
```
```
"Senior Sister, the array only covers the one hundred and eight mansions of the Human Tribe. What about the other living beings and Dead Spirits?" Li Cheng then asked.
```
```
"When those Divine Emperors return, I will have them use the Divine World to accommodate the Wan Race, and bring all the living and Dead Spirits in the Divine Realm into the array," Bai Qingming said.
```
```
This was more or less what Li Cheng had expected.
```
```
"What about the Outer Great Wall? It's been almost thirteen years; is there a result yet?" Li Cheng continued.
```
```
Bai Qingming frowned slightly, "The array you gave them made them overconfident. Moreover, the invaders split into ten routes, and to date, only seven have been eradicated. The remaining three routes have divided into dozens of teams, and it's impossible to obliterate them in the short term."
```
```
"There have been no losses, right?"
```
```
Li Cheng hadn't expected the appearance of the Limitless Heaven Formation to make the Divine Emperors of the Divine Realm complacent, but even with utmost caution, it wasn't something that could be completely eradicated in a short time with the invaders splitting into ten routes.
```
```
As long as the more than five hundred Divine Emperors hadn't suffered losses, that was the best news.

```
```
Bai Qingming nodded, "That has not happened. Now, the Divine Emperors are pursuing the invaders in groups of ten. Perhaps in another twenty years, there will be results."
```
```
This news relieved Li Cheng. As long as there were no losses, the invaders would be eradicated sooner or later!
```
```
"In that case, Senior Sister need not worry; it's just a matter of time." Seeing Bai Qingming slightly absent-minded, Li Cheng comforted her.
```
```
Bai Qingming turned to Li Cheng, "Chaos Yuan is in seclusion. I need to preside over the Divine Realm, and there's something I need you to do!"
```
```
Li Cheng nodded, "Whatever you command, Senior Sister."
```
```
Bai Qingming pointed southward, "Do you remember the God Race? They failed to cross the Outer Great Wall back then, and led by one who escaped the Ancestral Temple of Confucianism, they have now circled to the south, attempting to re-enter the Divine Realm from there."
```
```
Li Cheng was startled. Was the God Race seizing the opportunity to return?
```
```
With the Divine Emperors of the Divine Realm all dispatched, the God Race chose this time to come. Avoiding the Divine Emperors from the south, they indeed had picked their moment.
After pondering for a few seconds, Li Cheng said, "Now that there are many Supreme Laws in the Divine Realm, the advantages of the God Race should be suppressed enough, right?"
"That's right, the God Race used to be invincible within the same realm, but now they appear quite ordinary. However, we must not underestimate them. The God Race is an indigenous race of this land; it won't take long for them to adapt."
"So, I need to make a trip to the South. All we need to do is to keep the God Race outside the Sky-covering Canyon. Try not to kill them if possible. The God Race will be useful in the future."
The words of Senior Sister Bai Qingming made Li Cheng somewhat puzzled. The God Race will be useful in the future?
As for the Sky-covering Canyon, Li Cheng had only read about it in the records and had never been there.
It is said to be at the extreme south of the Divine Realm, guarded by mysterious races, with outsiders not allowed to enter.
"Senior Sister, which race's territory is the Sky-covering Canyon?" Li Cheng asked.
Senior Sister Bai Qingming looked at Li Cheng with some surprise, "You don't know?"
Li Cheng felt a bit embarrassed. Should he know this?
Beyond the One hundred and eight mansions, there are hardly any Transmission Arrays. Most travel relies on Teleportation. And there are rumors that the Sky-covering Canyon is fraught with danger; even Divine Emperors dare not visit at will. Thus, few from the Human Tribe have been there.
"The Phoenix Clan. I've already made contact. Currently, the Phoenix Clan is fully committed to obstructing the God Race, but relying solely on their power, they won't be able to resist for long," Bai Qingming explained.
Li Cheng raised an eyebrow. It was said that the Phoenix Clan had vanished long ago. Unexpectedly, they had relocated to the Sky-covering Canyon!
In the blink of an eye, Li Cheng was looking forward to it. In the history of the Divine Realm, the Dragon Clan and the Phoenix Clan had once been the rulers of the God Realm. It remains to be seen whether the current Phoenix Clan is stronger or weaker than the Dragon Clan.
However, the Phoenix Clan has kept such a low profile that they have become legends in the Divine Realm. Unlike the Dragon Clan that commands all Monster Races.
"Then, I will head there right away, and do my best," Li Cheng said.
Senior Sister Bai Qingming nodded, "Remember, the main purpose is to obstruct them. By any means possible, try to delay them as long as you can, so that we here can keep strengthening our forces through warfare and raise more Divine Emperor's Realm powerhouses."
Li Cheng understood, that was it!
The invaders were all at the level of Divine Emperors. Slaying one meant obtaining Divine Origin, Divine Blood, Divine Bones, and the resources they carried with them. As long as there was enough time, his Senior Sister could cultivate even more powerhouses at the level of Divine Emperors.
"Understood, Senior Sister. Rest assured!" Li Cheng said with a smile, clasping his hands together in salute.
"Oh, and I've sent your Little Junior Sister to the Supreme Realm. She's the descendant of that prominent figure. Perhaps she can leverage her bloodline's power to find him. If she does, all crises will end," Senior Sister Bai Qingming added.
Li Cheng was astonished. Was Senior Sister talking about the heavyweight who, on his own, made all the forces in the Supreme Realm hesitant to entertain ambitions for this universe? That massive figure, was he Little Junior Sister's ancestor?
In that case, that prominent figure, too, emerged from here!
Nodding his head, Li Cheng bid farewell to Senior Sister Bai Qingming and stepped on the Transmission Array heading south.
"The Phoenix Clan, quite something to look forward to."
A few days later, Li Cheng had left the area of the One hundred and eight mansions. Further ahead was out of the Human Tribe's territory.
Mountain ranges stretched ahead endlessly, and the divine qi of heaven and earth was as dense as ever, only now there seemed to be some violent breath in the atmosphere.
Gathering his spirit, Li Cheng randomly picked a mountain peak, set up several Divine Arrays, and within the Divine Arrays, a Transmission Array. Only then did he use Instantaneous Movement to leave, making no attempt to conceal his presence.
Leaving a Transmission Array here was naturally to facilitate his return.
Heading south, Li Cheng set up a Transmission Array every hundred billion miles. After setting up hundreds of them, he finally arrived!
The mountain ranges were continuous as before, but the air's scorching breath was particularly noticeable. The Rule of Fire here was exceptionally intense, as were the Supreme Laws of the Fire series.
Concentrating his gaze, Li Cheng could clearly see that at the far end was a fire cloud covering the sky!
The fire cloud appeared as though lying flat between the sky and the land – hence the origin of the Sky-covering Canyon's name.
"Supreme Li has graced us with his presence, please come swiftly!"
Just as Li Cheng was observing the Sky-covering Canyon, a rough voice came from the far-off sky.
