Chapter 227: Divine source (Part-3)

Hearing what Ludura has said. Kai cannot help but turn around and look at the cowardly Leo who was trying to not attract attention.

"Are you joking with me? This guy is a holy emperor? One of the ten peak magic emperor incarnations?"Kai almost shouted. Although he managed to stop himself, Ava and Alice noticed the shocked expression on his face under the dim light and were curious about what had happened.

'Now that I think about it. Ice Empress and Dark empress fused to become Morgana to continue living on and continued to affect her unconsciously. Can a holy emperor who is peak light magic user and closely related to the law of life increase his life or find other ways.'

To his curiosity Kai got quick answers in the form of mind transmission from Ludura without asking.

"Holy emperor was my beloved student and so he asked for my help to protect his bloodline and make sure it continues on. Knowing that his life is about to come to an end soon. He regretted betraying the trust of Lord Sunaya student, Daoma at the end of life. Most humans basically had turned their back against him upon knowing about his betrayal.Especially Elves and Dwarf who had good relationships with Daoma cut off relationships with the human race. Meanwhile, the demon race was taken over by various powerhouses who were hostile to humans who were before hand suppressed by the flame Emperor. But due to mishap during his cultivation he perished. Beginning the era of war between human and demon race."

"It seems human and demon race relationships already had their bottom. Still, why was the flame Emperor suppressing the demon race?"

"I don't know? The Flame Emperor had quite a complex life history and not much is known about his life before he became emperor of the demon race. According to me, he was the most peaceful among the ten peak magic emperors and also the second strongest after the Thunder Emperor."

When Kai was discussing with Ludura about the past events to fill in the missing prices of history which he didn't know about. He felt the change in his surroundings and atmosphere.

The dimp tunnel has started to brighten up and with a loud sound of rustling of water.

"Looks like we are almost at the end of the tunnel."said Ludura with a smile.

Others also heard it and quickened their steps. They want to see what is outside the tunnel.

As they walked quickly and saw light on the other end of the tunnel. They all got out of the tunnel.

The scene before their eyes was so beautiful that it was indescribable by words and were mesmerized by the natural beauty of the landscape before their eyes.

It was like they were standing on the golden staircase of heavens with gates of heavens guarded by large statues of maiden carrying spears in their hand on both sides. Surrounded by scared aura and fearful might to crush everything in existence.

Alice was also looking around with a thin smile, she knew that all of these are real but made up of the power of law. It was a vast domain in the form of a sub space created by a powerful divine source. Which is maintaining and stabling the space.

Ava, Antonio and Leo were gasping for breath seeing the breathless beauty of their surroundings.

"Let's go inside. The relic inside these gates."

Everyone nodded except for Kai and Alice who were still observing the statue for some time. Suddenly they saw the eyes of the statues moving and looked at them with tilted heads.

"You two should stop staring at them. They don't like getting attention."

"Cassandra, Primula don't mind them. They are admiring you."

Hearing that their eyes brinked before they returned to being lifeless statues

"They? Are these statues alive?"asked Ava.

"They are not statues instead they are guardians of gates of heaven. Most of the time they remain in deep slumber and only act when it's time to defend divine source from external dangerous or unwelcome intruders."

"Let's go inside. You can see the god source inside."

Walking inside, Kai and others felt like they were walking on ice with white cold smoke covering their feet and sounds of cracking resonating in their ears.

"Lord Ludura?"shouted Leo who was trembling and scared. Still, Ludura didn't turn around or reply to him.

Kai looked at him with pity. He can already see through the illusion which is interfering with his physical senses.

Ava and Antonio also break out of the illusion soon.

Seeing nobody is trying to help him. Leo bit his lips and stood there silently while others continued.

Sometimes later, they saw a circular floating stone platform with four pillars at four directions with a gold throne in the middle on which a sword with white hilt and semi translucent blade half stuck into it giving out a white brilliant kingly aura with overwhelming mental pressure within the range of three metres.

Beside it ten floating square stairs were floating connecting the floating platform and the floor.

Kai looked at the sword and left the aura and knew what is the identity of the sword.

That sword of supreme king, Vali. Born as the manifestation of his sword aura at the peak of his aura cultivation and supreme God divine power together. It is similar to his battle spirit sword born as a result of cultivation of battle God forbidden scripture.

"Feeling nostalgic? Seeing your sword after so many years."asked Ludura with a thin smile.

"In the current era this is the source of our divine power and which connects all spiritual gods of the second era together. After your death, your sword became the symbol of authority among the gods but nobody was able to pull it up from the throne and during the collapse of heaven. The entire mental power, law power and of all death gods and heaven was absorbed by the Sword turning into the divine power source for all gods."
