Chapter 680 - 502: The Sky God Who Wants to Be Revived_2
Chapter 680: Chapter 502: The Sky God Who Wants to Be Revived_2
This led to anyone attempting to wield the authority of the sky being attacked by the World Thunder whenever Mistrel attempted to use their body for resurrection. Consequently, every cultivator who covets the sky’s authority fell to the World Thunder, and Mistrel’s Will Divine Format was left in an eternal slumber.
Similarly, because Mistrel’s resurrection consumes the bloodline power of the living, each time someone attempted to seize the position of Sky God, the descendants of Mistrel within the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom would die in large numbers due to Mistrel’s revival.
This indirectly led to the degradation of the descendants of Mistrel within the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom. To this day, they even began living a primitive lifestyle, relying on raw flesh and blood.
But now, things are different.
When Sos extracted the Thunder Law, which controlled the World Thunder, from the puppet of Mistrel, it indicated that Mistrel was no longer constrained by the World Thunder. In the Cosmic Realm’s Law Realm, where Mistrel holds plenty of authority, despite the consumption over these years, the resurrection of his Golden Nature only awaits the emergence of a newcomer wishing to wield the sky’s authority, allowing Mistrel to occupy their form and complete a resurgence in the Golden Nature sense.
In another sense, after the World Thunder left Mistrel, he was already awakened.
His will temporarily resides within a puppet created from his Divine Body, much like the Cyan Pheasant of yore resided within the Longevity Emperor’s Weapon, the Cyan Pheasant Immortal Sword.
Once, the Golden Nature of the Sword Immortal Cyan Pheasant wished for Chen Zhixing to master the Sword Dao and merge with his will.
Chen Zhixing ignored him.
Now, Mistrel is in the same position, needing someone to inherit the Sky God’s god position for ’fusion’ with him.
But here’s the problem.
The position of the Sky God is one of the most esteemed positions among the Divine Kings within the Cosmic Realm. In the two millennia since Mistrel’s fall, countless have tried to ascend to this god position through various means, only to be struck by lightning for two millennia!
As long as one touches the sky, they’ll encounter the World Thunder.
After this situation has persisted for two millennia, would anyone still stubbornly seek to be struck by World Thunder?
No more....
All those stubborn enough have perished. Those who remain avoid the divine authority once held by Mistrel, fearing being targeted by the ubiquitous World Thunder.
Ahem.
Mistrel now faces such an awkward predicament.
He can’t resurrect and then kill the ones wanting the Sky God’s position all over. Now he can resurrect, but because he previously killed them all, there’s no body to host him.
How could one even describe such distress?
Of course.
It’s not entirely without opportunity.
If there’s no one, create one yourself. Therefore, in the days since his ’awakening,’ some life forms within the Celestial Vault Divine Kingdom began to receive Mistrel’s divine gifts, like this small group of dinosaur-like intelligent lifeforms, and especially those birdmen who inherited his bloodline; they have become one of Mistrel’s focal points!
"Mistrel, the god controlling thunder above the heavens, the primordial explorer of the unknown Star Sea, you are the original god wielding the world, and the first great entity to awaken from slumber. Your servants worship you, hoping you bring us thunder and rain, hoping you shorten the darkness of night, hoping you bring us the next dawn, hoping you return again to protect your followers, great Mistrel....."
The dinosaurs’ prayers were so well-prepared, one would never suspect they rushed them together within an hour.
And judging from their earnest and elaborate sacrificial setup, one could hardly believe this was their first worship since Mistrel’s awakening.
The most unexpected thing was that the dinosaurs’ first homage indeed received a response from this ancient god, passed away for two millennia!
As the dinosaur people continued to bow incessantly.
The stone statue of Mistrel placed upon the altar began to emit bursts of light as dazzling as the starry sky. This light gathered on the statue’s surface and transformed into a thin stream of starlight, flowing into the foreheads of the five dinosaurs below.
"A miracle! This is a miracle!"
"The great Mistrel has manifested, the Sky God still shelters us!"
Chen Zhixing: "???"
Bai Yu: "!!!"
In the dinosaurs’ chorus of exclamations, as they exchanged glances, they both saw confusion in each other’s eyes.
Bai Yu: ’Starlight? What’s going on? Did you do this?’
Chen Zhixing: ’You’re asking me, who am I supposed to ask? But then again, after two millennia, Mistrel can still stir up Starlight. Could it be this old entity isn’t completely dead?’
Bai Yu rolled her eyes: ’What are you thinking? Even if they weren’t entirely dead back then, they’ve surely perished by now after two thousand years... It wasn’t you who did this, right?’
Chen Zhixing: "....."
With a speechless expression, Chen Zhixing replied to Bai Yu, then curiously gazed at the stone statue enshrined on the altar.
"The starlight earlier, indeed emanated from this statue. I also sensed the fluctuation of the Star Tao within the Cosmic Realm. There is indeed a higher being drawing on authority to bestow the power of starlight."
".....Why did you speak!"
Chen Zhixing: "..."
Did anyone say I shouldn’t speak?
"Oh, I was dying to speak just now. As I was saying, since there’s something wrong with this statue, why don’t we just grab it and check? What’s the point in hesitating!"
Saying this, Bai Yu eagerly moved to seize it, but at the last moment, she awkwardly withdrew her hand, as if remembering something.
Looking back at Chen Zhixing, she saw him with an expression that screamed, ’You never learn from your mistakes,’ staring at her.
"Um... um..." Bai Yu instinctively covered her face with her hand: "If I were to grab it just now, would I summon that puppet again?"
"What do you think?" Chen Zhixing looked at her amused: "My good master, is every Longevity Realm individual who emerges from the Immortal Ascension Sacred Lands as rash as you?"
"Uh... Isn’t it just because I’ve used my fists too much and got lazy with my brain..."
Embarrassed, Bai Yu wished she could find a hole and crawl into it.
She waited for a long time, seeing Chen Zhixing with no intention of speaking and couldn’t help but ask again:
"So what do we do now? Just stand here?"
"No need."
As he spoke, Chen Zhixing sighed: "After they disperse, we’ll unexpectedly meet those five focused dinosaurs and use some minor tricks to find out what starlight entered their minds. I should be able to understand Mistrel’s current state then."
"Minor tricks... Are we going to make friends with them? I’m good at that!"
"Just perform the Soul Search!"
Bai Yu: "..."
This is illegal!!!
What? You’re the Demon Monarch?
So even if it’s not illegal, you’re still hunted by the Three Great Sacred Lands?
Never mind then.....
...
It’s proven that Soul Search is undoubtedly one of the simplest and most convenient methods in the Cultivation Realm.
Although among the five soul-searched dinosaurs, two died instantly, one became a vegetable, and the remaining two suffered severe mental damage and might not wake for ten days or half a month... Even if not eaten by other beasts, they’ll probably starve to death.
But effective is effective!
Within just five minutes, Chen Zhixing learned from the brains of those five dinosaurs about what Mistrel had done to them, and even analyzed Mistrel’s current state from a strand of lingering starlight.
"It’s actually a Cultivation Technique? A technique cultivating the Sky Path?"
Discovering that the Cultivation Technique within the strand of starlight is a divine skill which, when cultivated to fruition, could touch the sky’s rules and is similar to his family’s inherited ’Five Elements Qi Collection Method.’
For a moment.
The expression on Chen Zhixing’s face turned peculiar.
