Zhu Yi’s expression shifted slightly upon hearing that True Spirit wanted to talk in person. His face displayed a mix of confusion and astonishment as he questioned, “In person? What’s this old man up to? The Master has made it clear that the Emperor should not be lightly summoned. Is he trying to make an exception?”
“Tsk tsk, it seems you don’t know much!” Long Yi chuckled and then lowered his voice, saying, “That ultimate Emperor has already created the prototype of cosmic secret techniques. Though his power is of the fifth rank, he has crossed the threshold of the cosmic origin. Do you understand what that signifies?”The inception of this content can be traced to n0ve1bin★
“The cosmic origin?” Zhu Yi’s eyes contracted suddenly. Having survived countless cycles of reincarnation and traveled through vast expanses of time and space from ancient times to the present, she had encountered numerous mighty beings.
Beings like the Cosmic Overlords, such as Qi Shen, who once served as Qi Shen’s right-hand man, were all at the level of cosmic rulers.
However, since Qi Shen’s fall, the Qi Shen Temple had wandered, traversing many streams of time, but encountering truly powerful cosmic rulers from ancient times had become rare. In some weaker streams of time, not even a single cosmic ruler could be found.
Now, the ultimate existence within the Original Universe had created the prototype of cosmic secret techniques and crossed the threshold of the cosmic origin. Moreover, he was a fifth-rank Emperor. What kind of power would he possess once he advanced to the sixth rank?
Mastery of secret techniques and command over the cosmic origin meant becoming a Cosmic Overlord. Furthermore, he would be a Cosmic Overlord following the ultimate path, a rarity in the river of time.
“The True Spirit mentioned to me that this ultimate existence’s future achievements are extraordinary. He also has the qualifications to know the secrets within the Qi Shen Temple. The True Spirit intends to pass down a heritage that the Master had once acquired from another being to this ultimate existence. The Master held that heritage in high regard and had originally intended to bestow it upon several divine masters. Unfortunately, before it could be given, destruction arrived,” Long Yi sighed deeply.
In ancient times, Qi Shen was incredibly powerful. His might was such that he could reverse the flow of time, extinguish the cosmos, and halt the passage of time. Yet in the end, he still succumbed to fate.
Although they were just puppets, after gaining seven crystal-clear senses, their emotions were no different from ordinary people; they experienced joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness.
Zhu Yi took a deep breath, exhaling slowly. He said nonchalantly, “Such powerful beings would have garnered attention even when our Master was alive, let alone now.”
“You should get to the point. I’m here to select inheritors for the Grand Yan Immortals. 1 don’t have time to discuss Emperors with you,” Zhu Yi said, growing impatient.
“Haha, indeed, I’ve drifted off topic. Let’s not forget the main issue,” Long Yi laughed heartily and continued, “l can see it’s unusually peaceful on your end.
The little ones are all undergoing trials in the Original Planet, and my
Emperors have nothing pressing. How about I leave them here for a while?
When everyone is ready, I’ll make other arrangements.”
Among the Emperors left in the Original Universe, there were only a few Long Yi was interested in. The rest, after the peak trials, would be sent into the sea of origin source. They would receive some benefits as a form of compensation.
Those selected would have their names hung in the Qishen Temple and be granted treasures and legacies. In the future, when the Qishen Temple explored other Rivers of Time and Space, those who wanted to follow could, and those who didn’t could refuse.
“Haha, I like straightforward people like you, not like that old tortoise, always dilly-dallying,” Long Yi said with great joy.
“I’ll let them in now!”
“They’re outside,” Long Yi continued, “By the way, let them enter the Vermillion Bird Temple, or go somewhere else!”
Zhu Yi waved her hand. In the entire Original Realm, apart from the trial grounds, there were some planets containing treasures and legacies. The available space was almost gone. There was only one place left that could accommodate tens of thousands of Emperors and prevent them from running amok.
“Let them go to the Demon Sound Mountain! There’s a strand of the universe’s origin source there, which can temporarily stabilize them!” Zhu Yi furrowed her brow.
The internal world of the Qishen Temple was vast, comparable to a universe. However, the treasures and legacies stored there were overwhelming, suffocatingly numerous.
The four temples controlled only a small portion. The core legacies and treasures were in the sea of origin source, all under the control of the True Spirit.
“Understood!” Long Yi took out a token and said in a low voice, “Send them to the Demon Sound Mountain in the Original Realm. Remember to be polite to them, don’t be disrespectful.”
Most of these people would be under his command after joining the Qishen Temple. He couldn’t be too ruthless in driving them out now.
“Alright, if there’s nothing else, you can go. I’m very busy here!” Zhu Yi rubbed her temples, starting to figure out how to distribute the legacies. After all, opening trials and legacies simultaneously for 108 Original Planets required calculating the types of legacies based on the strong individuals on each star.
Original Planet, Alpha One.
It had three half-step Emperors and seventeen Dao Lords. There were even more than 100 half-step Dao Lords. The number of Grand Yan Immortals on this kind of Original Planet was the highest, with millions of them, twice as many as other Original Planets.
For such planets with many strong individuals, she would arrange relatively better legacies and trials. Otherwise, it wouldn’t serve the purpose of fairness.
With her incredibly sharp mind, she could remember every single Grand Yan Immortal, even among millions of trial participants.
Especially those Grand Yan Immortals she secretly favored.
Just like how True Spirit could favor Hu Qing and dislike Jian Wushuang, she also had her favored Grand Yan Immortals.
Original Planet, Alpha Nine. She favored Dao Lord Wan Xing. As for Hu Qing and Jian Wushuang, she only had a slight interest. These two youngsters, who had relatively short cultivation periods, never concerned her. But True Spirit had been fixated on them.
For these two individuals, he even started the trials early.
Originally, according to the initial plan, the trials were supposed to begin ten years after the fierce battles on the Original Planets, when the trial participants had settled down. This would rekindle the fighting spirit of those Grand Yan Immortals..
