Chapter 2537: Chapter 828: Lu Changsheng: Heavenly Secrets Must Be in Chaos! (3)
Long ago, during the upheaval of the Eastern Sea, the elders of the sect led the disciples to escape to the Starry Sky Sea, establishing the Seven Sects of the Ocean.
And the Sea Suppressing Ancestor before us, is very likely not of the Human Race, but... of the Demon Race!
Yet upon hearing the words "East Emperor’s Successor," Star King and Moon Venerate instinctively exchanged a glance.
Back then, through the words of the Pinghai Monarch, they speculated whether the "Solar Mysterious Light" originated from the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, the supreme treasure of the East Emperor Lineage.
However, the Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror stands as a Heaven-Reaching Spirit Treasure.
Lu Changsheng also has the Tianyuan Lotus, Lu Family Genealogy, and Mysterious Heaven Spiritual Vine to block the Heavenly Secrets.
Even if they combined their efforts, they couldn’t deduce anything about the Taiji Mysterious Light Mirror, nor the origins of Lu Changsheng.
Yet now, the Sea Suppressing Ancestor directly declares this person to be the "East Emperor’s Successor."
"What does the ancestor mean by the East Emperor’s Successor?"
Moon Venerate’s beautiful eyes, covered by light gauze, rippled slightly as she inquired the Sea Suppressing Ancestor.
Although according to the ancestral teachings, the reincarnation of the East Emperor and the East Emperor’s Successor, will reappear in the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm in the future.
The matter of the East Emperor’s Successor is of great importance.
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor before them, as a living fossil of the Starry Sky Sea, who knows much about the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm, couldn’t possibly speak carelessly.
"Hehe, why must Moon Venerate feign ignorance?"
The deep, abyss-like eyes beneath the Sea Suppressing Ancestor’s conical hat glanced at Moon Venerate, and he chuckled lowly: "Your Star Moon Palace originated from the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, and besides the Star Moon Two Veins, there was also the East Emperor Lineage."
"The Great Sun as the principal, stars and moon as subordinates, what does the East Emperor’s Successor imply? Could it be you two are not aware?"
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor slowly spoke, revealing the circumstances of the Sun, Moon and Star Palace directly.
"Indeed, Sea Suppressing Ancestor is truly well-informed about our Star Moon Palace."
Star King clapped his hands lightly, smiling, "Since that’s the case, how does the ancestor determine that this person is the East Emperor’s Successor?"
"According to our records in the Star Moon Palace, the Sun, Moon and Star Palace was breached in the past, the East Emperor Lineage was slaughtered by the Demon Race, how could there be a successor appearing in this Starry Sky Sea?"
Star King looked at the Sea Suppressing Ancestor before them, with a hint of scrutiny in his eyes.
From the tone of the two in front of him, the Sea Suppressing Ancestor could tell that they were not particularly close to the notion of the "East Emperor’s Successor" and lacked knowledge of the specifics.
He immediately chuckled, "Slaughtered? Didn’t the Star and Moon Two Veins also pass on?"
"Aren’t you two aware of the origins of my Sea Suppression Sect? Wasn’t it passed down from the great disaster back then?"
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor looked at Star King, sneering, "In that case, what’s so strange about the East Emperor Lineage being passed down?"
"What the ancestor says isn’t quite right. If they only received some legacies, would they dare to be called the East Emperor’s Successor?"
Star King immediately said somewhat disdainfully.
"It is naturally not just some legacy, this person possesses the supreme treasure of the East Emperor Lineage from the Sun, Moon and Star Palace—the East Emperor Mirror!"
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor stared seriously at the two before him, hoping to discern their expressions.
As expected!
Upon hearing the words East Emperor Mirror, both Star King and Moon Venerate were visibly moved, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
East Emperor Mirror.
Not only the supreme treasure of the East Emperor Lineage!
But also a supreme treasure of the Sun, Moon and Star Palace!
The supreme treasure has a spirit, able to choose its master.
Ordinary cultivators are not qualified to become the master of the East Emperor Mirror!
"That’s impossible! Since the ancestor knows that the East Emperor Mirror is the supreme treasure of the East Emperor Lineage from the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, then it should be clear, such a supreme treasure could never be lost to the outside."
Star King immediately rebutted.
According to the ancestors’ legacy, the mission of the Star Moon Palace was to aid the East Emperor’s Successor in rebuilding the Sun, Moon and Star Palace.
But the Star Moon Palace now stands as one of the top forces in the Starry Sky Sea.
And he, Star King, is also one of the top Nascent Soul Cultivators in the Starry Sky Sea.
Under such circumstances, how could he be willing to aid an unknown person for an old legacy?
Thus, he was extremely resistant to such things, like the East Emperor’s Successor!
Unless the other party was a genius beyond compare, a Nascent Soul Great True Monarch!
Otherwise, asking him to assist would simply be ridiculous!
"Since I have come to your Star Moon Palace, I have naturally seen it with my own eyes."
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor said, taking out a piece of jade from his bosom and tossing it to the Star King and Moon Venerate before him.
For this visit to the Star Moon Palace, he had made preparations in advance.
Through Divine Skills, he had imprinted Lu Changsheng’s Solar Mysterious Light, blasted towards him, into the jade, and simulated the aura and Qi mechanism.
Though it was difficult to completely recreate the scene then and the aura, it could show the general situation.
"This..."
Star King and Moon Venerate looked at the scene in the jade, feeling the burning and overwhelming presence of the Solar Mysterious Light, their hearts suddenly paused.
They had never seen the East Emperor Mirror.
The myriad information about the Sun, Moon and Star Palace and the Eastern Sea Cultivation Realm were known through the handwritten notes of the ancestors, and the narratives passed down by the previous Star Kings and Moon Venerates.
So, they couldn’t determine if this was the supreme treasure East Emperor Mirror of the Sun, Moon and Star Palace.
But the Sea Suppressing Ancestor’s words and the scene in the jade compelled them to believe, this likely was the East Emperor Mirror.
"Just based on such a Solar Divine Light, it’s hard to determine that’s the East Emperor Mirror, isn’t it?"
Star King said with an unaffected demeanor, knowing Moon Venerate’s attitude towards the East Emperor Lineage was more proactive than his own.
If the "East Emperor’s Successor" mentioned by the Sea Suppressing Ancestor were true, Moon Venerate would likely go to assist.
In such a case, his position as Star King would become quite awkward.
"That’s why this time, the old man came to ask the two of you to verify and divine the origin of this person, to see if he is the East Emperor’s Successor!"
"If he is, why, it is due to your calculation and testing of the East Emperor’s Successor that Pinghai ended up missing, and the two of you must give the old man an explanation, right?"
"If he isn’t, then this old man is willing to apologize to the two of you."
The Sea Suppressing Ancestor looked at the Star King and Moon Venerate before him and said sternly, hoping to know their intentions.
Whether the two would consider old ties and speak for the East Emperor Lineage, or... covet the East Emperor’s legacy!
After all, the Star Moon Palace was created by a group of people who fled the Sun, Moon and Star Palace early on.
Now, thousands of years later, Star King and Moon Venerate have changed over several generations, likely having long forgotten the events of the past.
Furthermore, in the Sun, Moon and Star Palace, the East Emperor was the principal; stars and moons were subordinates, being heirs of stars and moon, how could they willingly remain subordinate?
They might even have more interest in the East Emperor’s legacy!
Star King wanted to say he has divined before and was unable to calculate it, suggesting to meet this East Emperor’s Successor with himself.
But next to him, Moon Venerate directly nodded and agreed, "Alright."
"Star King."
Moon Venerate looked at Star King, her voice calm and indifferent, prepared to expend the cost to deeply calculate the situation of this East Emperor’s Successor.
Star King looked into the blurred, beautiful eyes of Moon Venerate covered with light gauze, and his cold, charming face settled for a moment, "Alright."
In the Star Moon Palace, Star King and Moon Venerate stood side-by-side without any hierarchy between them.
Moreover, Moon Venerate was more adept at divination than he was, even if he disagreed, Moon Venerate could still perform divination.
Refusing Moon Venerate at this time would undoubtedly lay bare his unwillingness to follow the legacy.
