╠ Cloudsmoke Forest ╣
Somewhere deep inside the Cloudsmoke Forest, further away from the meteorite, the Godfiend Mo Guaiwu was cultivating. He was actually recovering his lost cultivation base. There was a shining orb in his hand. The orb was shining with sparkling blue light that could intoxicate anyone with its beauty.
There were some runes carved on the surface of the orb that was shining green. This was obviously the Source Orb that Mo Guaiwu had stolen.
Currently, he was on the verge of breaking through and becoming a Divine Lord Realm Godfiend, however, it was at this moment something unexpected happened that caused Mo Guaiwu to be sent flying. Not only that, even the Source Stone in his hand was thrown to who knows where.
Mo Guaiwu was on the verge of breaking through but something unexpected happened at this moment. This caused him to vomit out a few mouthfuls of blood and his complexion turned pale.
His internal organs were in mess now and he couldn’t even stand up anymore. He struggled to sit up by leaning against the broken trunk of a thick tree.
“Wh…at happened?”
Mo Guaiwu looked around but soon, he raised his eyes in shock. It is because the Cloudsmoke Forest was no longer there. It had already turned into a deep crater filled with mixtures of broken trees, demonic beasts, medicinal herbs and fruits, and many other miscellaneous objects. At this moment, not only the Cloudsmoke Forest, but the entire Azure Dragon Country looked too desolate. It seemed to be like an ancient battlefield where a huge battle was fought before.
“I… can’t believe it!”
Mo Guaiwu shook his head and slapped himself hard, only to cry out in pain. Only now did he believe what he was seeing is the truth.
He hurriedly turned to look in the direction of the meteorite and found that the meteorite was alright. Nothing happened to it.
“But… Why is it so dark?” Mo Guaiwu frowned and looked up, only to see a humongous vortex swirling in the sky, and two giant red eyes were looking down, locking on someone.
“E… Ey… Eyes of Heavenly Dao!”
“FUCK!”
Mo Guaiwu exclaimed loudly and could not help but take fell to the ground once again. Then he once again struggled to sit up.
He was really afraid of the Eyes of Heavenly Dao. For a moment, he even thought that the target of Eyes of Heavenly Dao is him. Fortunately, he soon noticed that the Eyes of Heavenly Dao were not even looking at him. It is as if he is no more than an ant in the eyes of “Eyes of Heavenly Dao”.
“Where is my Source Orb?”
Mo Guaiwu soon came back to his senses and noticed that the Source Orb was no longer in his hand. He hurriedly looked around but didn’t find it. This shocked him once again as his heart started throbbing hard. His lifeline was stuck on the Source Orb. If he lost the Source Orb, how could he become an Ancient God in a very short period of time? And if he didn’t become an Ancient God, how could he go against LORD whose Source Orb he had stolen?
If the Source Orb is really lost, he has to be on the run continuously for his entire life. He can’t stay in one place anymore, otherwise, he will be killed by LORD and other Godfiends whom he had betrayed.
“I have to look for it!”
Mo Guaiwu muttered and started crawling here and there in order to look for the Source Orb.
“This damn pain!”
However, the moment he started moving his body, he was assaulted by bone-shattering pain, and couldn’t help but curse. The pain was intense and he knew he could not move his body carelessly, otherwise, the pain will kill him before LORD could even find him.
He knew he has to rest and recover from the newly received injuries before he could look for the Source Orb.
…..
“What the f*ck do you think you are doing?”
Ye Xiao was not shocked when the Eyes of Heavenly Dao targeted him. It has been too long since he last fought against the Eyes of Heavenly Dao.
He was just shocked to see that the attack of Eyes of Heavenly Dao actually obliterated the entire Azure Dragon Country.
With this, the Azure Dragon Country became nothing but history. Even if it is to be restored again, it will no longer be the Azure Dragon Country of the past.
The Eyes of Heavenly Dao didn’t heed to Ye Xiao’s expression. Countless red fragments of light started gathering at one place before the two humongous red eyes. These red fragments of light were exuding an overwhelming aura of destruction. It was as if the moment even a single fragment of light touched the ground, it’ll instantly destroy the entire Azure Sky Continent.
“Hey, calm down a little first!”
Ye Xiao was scared. He was not scared because he was afraid of death or something, he was scared that the Eyes of Heavenly Dao might really destroy the entire Azure Sky Continent just to get rid of him.
Ye Xiao now knows very well why the Eyes of Heavenly Dao are bent on killing him. From the moment he obtained the Heavenly Pearl, he changed his fate. His fate was to die without being able to take revenge for his father-like figure, Ye Fan. However, not only did he change his fate, but from the moment he obtained the Heavenly Pearl, he was standing against the Heavens. He was destined to go against the Heavens in one way or another.
Although he no longer wants to go against the Heavens after knowing the truth, he is destined to do so. He can’t change his destiny again. Changing destiny again and again is not a child’s play. If not for the Heavenly Pearl, then for himself, he has to go against the Heavens.
After all, he had already planned to leave the Heavens after knowing about Chaos. And he does not believe that the Heavens will let him leave easily. After all, his soul belongs to the Heavens. Everything born in the Heavens is closely connected to it. After dying, every soul has to go through the process of reincarnation and reincarnate again.
Every single soul is a part of Heavens’ strength. If Ye Xiao left the Heavens, he will no longer be related to the Heavens. If he really left, although it’ll be like losing a drop of water from an endless ocean to Heavens, however, there is no doubt that the Heavens will be lost that ‘drop’ worth of power forever and will never be able to recover it. So, every single bit of power and even every bit of shattered soul is very important to the Heavens. It will never allow a single soul to leave.
For example, the Nine Ancestral Dragons.
Although Heavens abandoned them, it never wanted them to become a part of the Second Universe. Primordial Race also dared to go against its will and support another Universe. It must be afraid that they’ll go to the Second Universe and become a part of that universe. That’s why it ordered all the races including the Ancient Race to hunt down the nine ancestral dragons and the Primordial Race and kill them.
After the Primordial Race was destroyed, their souls returned to Heavens. They were not lost, it also means that the Heavens didn’t lose its strength.
However, the same was not the case for the Nine Ancestral Dragons. They were sucked inside the Second Universe before it completely transformed into the Heavenly Pearl. And then they went through a very complicated process to reincarnate again using Ye Xiao as their medium and became parts of the Second Universe.
But even so, they were never able to completely lose their connection with Heavens. They were born with a 100% understanding of the Profound Meanings of various Laws. Even after their rebirth, their understanding of the Profound Meanings of various Laws is still there.
It means that if they die in the Second Universe, they’ll boost the strength of the Second Universe, however, if they die in the Heavens, they’ll return to their origins.
Ye Xiao is cultivating the Nine Dragon Universal Circulation Technique. He is closely connected to not only the Nine Ancestral Dragons but also the Second Universe. Thus, becoming the target of Heavens and its Dao.
Maybe, Heavens has still not given up on the souls of Nine Ancestral Dragons. After all, it had told Queen that it had seen a glimpse of the future where the Nine Ancestral Dragons were trying to steal its source and Queen was standing against them, trying to protect the Source of the Heavens.
And she also had support. A figure shrouded in fog but with a golden pair of eyes.
Well, that time will come soon, and another huge war will definitely break out. And Ye Xiao guessed that only that war will decide the final outcome, as to if the souls of the Nine Ancestral Dragons will return to their origins or become a part of the Second Universe.
