Chapter 679: Chapter 502: The Sky God Who Wants to Be Revived
"Mistrel, the deity wielding thunder above the celestial vault, the first explorer of the unknown Star Sea, you are the primordial god ruling the world, and you shall be the first great being to awaken from slumber."
On the ancient altar, a group of intelligent beings shaped like small carnivorous dinosaurs knelt before the statue on the altar, continuously praying alongside the dinosaur-like sacrificial chants.
It is hard to imagine that in such a barren land as the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom, there actually exists the birth of intelligent life, and the life forms that emerge are not descendants of Mistrel, but rather a group resembling dinosaurs.
"What are they doing?"
"Hmm? Didn’t you say you weren’t coming back? How did you get in?"
"What, you’re not welcoming me?"
"I just worry you’ll attract that Ancient God Puppet again."
"Surely not..."
Bai Yu, hiding together with Chen Zhixing inside a cloud, shrank his head and began looking around cautiously.
She was genuinely frightened.
Not that there was any real fear of the Ancient God Puppet, she just didn’t want to waste the Immortal Ship’s energy.
"Hmm, as long as you don’t disturb the laws, it shouldn’t seek you out."
As he spoke, Chen Zhixing stroked his chin, without certainty but reasoning backward from the fact that the big bird hadn’t attacked since Bai Yu entered the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom.
Chen Zhixing couldn’t foresee that the reason the Ancient God Puppet hadn’t sought them wasn’t due to the expiration of its tracking period on Bai Yu, but because it had issues of its own.
Mistrel, as the first Ancient God of the Cosmic Realm to soar beyond the world to explore the starry sky, had indeed reached other worlds.
The collision between different worlds could possibly ignite unique sparks.
Mistrel was like that.
At the end of the Cosmic Deity Age, before the gods’ downfall, although Mistrel arranged a stable life for his descendants, it did not mean that He was willing to face death.
Even if His death was an inevitable result imposed by the rules of this starry sky.
But who says that after death, one couldn’t be resurrected again?
Mistrel believed he could emerge from death once more, and left behind a sufficiently powerful contingency for this.
His dominion included the sky, seasons, star formations, thunder, wind and snow, clouds and rain, forming almost a cycle of celestial phenomena, and Mistrel, who wielded these, intended to revive from these world-rule-like celestial phenomena.
As long as celestial phenomena still operated, as long as His revered name was still called upon in this world, as long as His lineage had not gone extinct in the Cosmic Realm, as long as the Cosmic Realm needed the birth of another Divine King to govern the celestial vault, Mistrel might awaken from death and return to His position as the Sky God and Divine King.
This... sounds somewhat fantastical?
In terms of the Celestial Profound Realm, this Mistrel of the Tenth Realm of Immortality, when at the brink of death, merged everything of himself into His Golden Nature, and if anyone wanted to inherit the same Golden Nature Tao, when Golden Nature entered their body, they would have to resist this pollution from the ’Mistrel’ Golden Nature.
This scenario is not uncommon in the Celestial Profound Realm, and it can be said that most Longevity True Monarchs must undergo this process before they attain enlightenment.
Resisting the consciousness left in the Golden Nature is akin to combating an Outer Demon.
Of course, in the Celestial Profound Realm, most ’Golden Nature Outer Demons’ possess the strength of the Third Order or Fourth Order, and those cultivators who can reach the Peak Realm mostly have steadfast mindsets, not easily swayed; the worst result usually is being influenced by the will within the Golden Nature, ultimately merging the two into one, so the issue is not significant.
But as for the Divine King of the Cosmic Realm, left behind by Mistrel, who in the Celestial Profound Realm can be termed as Tenth Order’s Golden Nature will...
Such a thing, for a Peak Realm cultivator, is no longer a matter of difficulty, but touching it almost inevitably leads to possession by it, a terrifying fate!
In the words of the Celestial Profound Realm, which decent individual, after cultivating to the Longevity Tenth Order, would not venture into the Spirit Realm to compete for the position of Taoist Lord, then shamelessly merge their consciousness into Golden Nature to trap their successors?
Doing this, apart from harming successors, offers no benefits at all, a sheer loss!
After all, upon reaching the Spirit Realm, although you live as a Golden Nature entity, you are still you.
But if you remain in the Mortal World, no matter how strong your will is, being continuously merged with strong ones with comparable wills creates a resultant monster bearing little relation to you.
Of course.
These rules do not apply to Mistrel, because this Sky God has never been to the Celestial Profound Realm.
But this doesn’t hamper much.
Because, over these twenty thousand years, no one seeking to seize control of sky divinity has succeeded yet, leaving the divine format Mistrel left behind pure.
Why?
Is it because the cultivators of the Cosmic Realm figured out Mistrel’s plot?
No.
It is because within the rules Mistrel governs lies thunder, the World Thunder, the primordial power of the world, whose primary functions are ’breaking barriers’, ’banishing evils’, ’maintaining order’, and ’exterminating extra-legal entities’!
Resurrection defies the rules!
Mistrel, wanting to resurrect through Golden Nature, must eliminate the interference of the World Thunder.
And it just so happens that Mistrel is the deity who governs the World Thunder...
