West Lane Town in the capital of the Solitary Nation was famous for stone gambling among its neighboring nations. Although stone gambling could be found in other nations as well, it was not taken seriously like it was in West Lane Town.

“Brother Duan, most of the Origin Stones in the Supporting Fall Nation come from West Lane Town. West Lane Town owns the largest stone gambling den in the southern region of the Profound Nether Mansion…” Huang Jia Long explained as they left the Imperial Palace of the Solitary Nation for West Lane Town.

“Origin Stones?” Duan Ling Tian raised an eyebrow. A hint of curiosity could be heard in his voice. He speculated Origin Stones were like raw jade stones on earth.

“Yes.” Huang Jia Long nodded. “Origin Stones are like fossils. They’re covered in layers of dirt and dust and become Origin Stones with the pa.s.sing of time. They’re capable of blocking out all Divine Consciousness. Not even the strongest Ten Directions Celestial Emperor in the Devata Realms or the mysterious t.i.tled Celestial Emperor in the t.i.tle Temple is able to bypa.s.s the Origin Stones’ effect. However, the surface of Origin Stones is so weak that even the weakest Great Overarching Golden Celestial would be able to crack it to obtain what’s inside. Since one can’t investigate what’s inside Origin Stones with one’s Divine Consciousness, stone gambling has become a profitable market in Devata Realms,” Huang Jia Long continued to explain.

The concept of Origin Stones was rather similar to stones that contained precious raw jade on earth. On earth, stones with a slight color of jade would increase in value in the market due to the possibility of it containing raw jade. Naturally, there was always a possibility that one might end up with just a piece of worthless stone as well. The difference was Origin Stones in Devata Realms might contain unknown treasure while the raw jade stones on earth might contain raw jade.

“There are many different sizes of Origin Stones… Those that are damaged, exposing their contents, aren’t qualified to be used for stone gambling since we would be able to probe it with our Divine Consciousness. This defeats the purpose of stone gambling, after all,” Huang Jia Long continued to say.

“Jia Long, so what’s inside Origin Stones?” Duan Ling Tian asked curiously. The contents of Origin Stones must be highly valuable to pique Huang Jia Long’s interest in stone gambling. He could not help but wonder what was in them.

“Brother Duan… Do you know where Origin Stones come from?” Huang Jia Long asked.

“Based on what you said earlier, they must be artifacts from a long time ago. After all, fossilization takes a long time,” Duan Ling Tian deduced out loud.

“That’s right. I’m sure you know Little Worlds left behind by Celestial Kings, Celestial Lords, and Celestial Emperors in the Devata Realms contain their legacies…” Huang Jia Long said.

Duan Ling Tian nodded slightly in response.

“It’s generally known that the stability of a Little World relies heavily on the cultivation base of its creator… Little Worlds created by Celestial Kings are less stable compared to the ones created by Celestial Lords. Similarly, those created by Celestial Lords are less stable than those created by Celestial Emperors. However, no matter how stable they are, they would destabilize with the pa.s.sing of time. To keep it stable at all times, it needed to be maintained. For example, the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm in the Southern Heaven Territory was created by a t.i.tled Celestial Lord. After that, many Southern Heaven Celestial Lords made an effort to keep it stable in the past. What makes it special is that, on top of the treasures that are already in there, those Celestial Lords had also filled the realm with more treasures like Celestial Weapons, medicinal herbs, and Celestial Talismans. At the same time, they would also put obstacles and tests in the realm…” Huang Jia Long said, “The Southern Heaven Celestial Lords are in charge of the upper realms in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm while ordinary Celestial Lords were in charge of the middle realms. Finally, grade-six Celestial Mansions in the Southern Heaven Territory are in charge of the lower realms. The lower realm we’ll be entering in four months is maintained by the Profound Nether Mansion.”

Huang Jia Long continued to say, “I’m not sure if you know there are 108 lower realms in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm. They’re guarded by 108 grade-six Celestial Mansions in the Southern Heaven Territory respectively; the Profound Nether Mansion is one of them.”

Huang Jia Long smiled sheepishly as he paused for a moment. “I know this is a lot to take in at once… I’ll get to the origins of the Origin Stones soon…”

“It’s fine… I’m learning a lot of things. Prior to this, I didn’t know there are 108 lower realms in the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm and 108 grade-six Celestial Mansions in the Southern Heaven Territory…” Despite his calm expression, Duan Ling Tian was inwardly shocked. Based on Huang Jia Long’s words, there were clearly thousands of nations similar to the Supporting Fall Nation and Solitary Nation under the Profound Nether Mansion alone.

‘There are at least a thousand nations under the Profound Nether Mansion… This means there must be, at least, 100,000 nations under all the 108 grade-six Celestial Mansions…’ Duan Ling Tian’s eyes narrowed imperceptibly as he thought to himself. He felt slightly insignificant when he realized how vast a Devata Realm was. ‘The Southern Heaven Territory that’s ruled by a t.i.tled Celestial Lord alone has, at least, 100,000 nations… There must be many more places similar to the Southern Heaven Territory in the Spirit Overarching Heaven! After all, there are powerhouses stronger than t.i.tled Celestial Lords such as Celestial Emperors and t.i.tled Celestial Emperors! Above the t.i.tled Celestial Emperors is the Heavenly Emperor that rules over the entire Spirit Overarching Heaven! Most importantly, there are 81 Devata Realms!’

At this moment, Huang Jia Long said, “As I mentioned earlier, the Southern Heaven Ancient Realm, similar to all Little Worlds, requires Southern Heaven Celestial Lords to maintain its stability. Otherwise, it will lose its stability and eventually collapse as time pa.s.ses by. Unfortunately, not many powerhouses are willing to put in the effort to stabilize Little Worlds. Once a Little World collapses, everything in it, including the treasures, will be drawn into a spatial turbulence before they scatter everywhere. With time, these things that are scattered will turn into Origin Stones. As I’ve said, some of them contain treasure and some of them are just worthless stones.”
