Chapter 2890: Godly Advent
The Dark Sovereign, who was cultivating, suddenly became alert in the Dark Court. He opened his eyes, looked into the distance, and called out, “Donghuang!”
A phantom appeared in the distance, and it was none other than Donghuang the Great. At this moment, all the cultivators above the Dark Court were waiting cautiously, looking at Donghuang the Great. What was he doing here?
“Are you unhappy to see me?” Donghuang the Great queried.
“Come on in,” the Dark Sovereign replied lightly. Immediately, Donghuang the Great moved forward as he entered inside the Dark Court and stepped onto the highest point of the Dark Divine Palace. Out front, the Dark Sovereign was sitting cross-legged and cultivating. A terrifying dark storm loomed in the sky above and enveloped the entire court.
“Are you here to ask for peace?” the Dark Sovereign asked.
“Before I came here, I saw a Bright Continent within the bounds of the Dark Court. Who is the woman on the continent?” Donghuang the Great asked.
“It has nothing to do with you,” the Dark Sovereign responded nonchalantly.
“Coexistence of light and darkness. It’s interesting for you to allow such a place to exist in the center of the Dark World.” Donghuang the Great continued, “You must know something about what happened back then and that the Human Ancestor is not as he seems on the outside. He has been inciting several of you to destroy the Divine Prefecture—killing Ji Wudao and invading the Heaven Realm—all because the existence of the Divine Prefecture and the Heaven Realm impeded on his plans. In reality, what the Human Ancestor always wanted was to rule over the world. This was also why after he thought he had killed me, he proceeded to attack you. I’m sure you are aware of it already.”
“Say whatever you are here to say.” The Dark Sovereign did not seem to have much patience. Many things were well known to them without beating around the bush too much.
“If the Human Ancestor succeeded in his ambition and ruled the world, what he would do to you will need no further description from me.” Donghuang the Great ignored the other’s response and continued, “Perhaps, it will be as you wish, that the world will turn into total darkness. However, your idea for the order of the world to be remade will probably be shattered. The Human Ancestor will control everything in the world, and the cultivation world will fall into eternal darkness until the eruption of the next battle of Heavenly Path.”
“Perhaps no matter who rules the world, the result will be the same. Only through destruction can we be reborn again,” the Dark Sovereign said coldly, wisps of destructive aura pervading from him. It was so terrifying that he appeared like a god of the apocalypse.
The goal of the Dark Sovereign was to bring darkness and destruction to the world. Only when everything was destroyed would rebirth be possible, and a different world could appear.
“If so, destruction is just another cycle of reincarnation. The next world will still follow the same old path. What will be the difference?” Donghuang the Great remained steady in his aura. “This world does not need destruction, but a different world with different people in charge of its order.”
The Dark Sovereign stared at him, only to hear Donghuang the Great’s reply, “Whatever you choose, choose carefully.”
Having said that, Donghuang the Great turned around to leave without wasting another minute. They were both intelligent individuals, and at this level, he didn’t need to say too much. Sometimes it was enough to have the key points clarified.
The Dark Sovereign had never concealed his own will, which was to destroy the world, thus reshaping it; this was something that Donghuang the Great already knew. Therefore, he asked the other to consider carefully the kind of outcome that would be in line with his will.
If it was an impossibility, what would be the choice of the Dark Sovereign?
In the Devil World Realm, at the Devil Imperial Palace, Donghuang the Great also arrived to see the Devil Emperor.
In front of the Demon God Palace, the Devil Emperor looked at Donghuang the Great and said, “Donghuang, your plan has been realized. What are you doing here?”
“Where is Yu Sheng?” Donghuang the Great asked, but it was about Yu Sheng.
The Devil Emperor frowned and replied, “He’s cultivating.”
“Futian and Yu Sheng grew up together since childhood. Their fathers were good friends, and their mothers were sisters. Therefore, no matter where they stand in the future, they will be the best of brothers. Yu Sheng’s affairs will naturally be Futian’s affairs.” Donghuang the Great looked at the Devil Emperor and continued, “I hope one day I can see the two of them fight side-by-side.”
When he finished speaking, Donghuang the Great bowed slightly and left. He was here only to deliver a brief message before he was gone.
He didn’t mention the Divine Prefecture and the Devil World, nor whatever that had transpired between them; it was just about Ye Futian and Yu Sheng.
But there were already enough hints in what he said.
If the Devil Emperor intended to have Yu Sheng inherit the Devil World, then in the future, Ye Futian would not do anything detrimental to the Devil World.
Before, the Devil Emperor also heard something—that if a supreme figure were to appear in the world, the Devil World would not continue to suffer from the Devil Abyss.
Similarly, Donghuang the Great also went to the Empty Divine Realm to see the Evil Emperor. Three phantoms found three of the six emperors simultaneously, bringing different messages.
At present, the Divine Prefecture and Heaven Realm were facing the threat of the Human Ancestor. Naturally, they did not want a repeat like the last time, being surrounded and besieged by the other four realms.
More importantly, he knew that the Human Realm had always hidden its true strengths. Before, the Human Ancestor thought that the battle of the six emperors would be the end of it all, so some forces were not mobilized. But inside the Human Divine Palace, Ji Wudao had witnessed it.
…
In the Heaven Realm, many cultivators were now pouring into the Heavenly Imperial City, wanting to enter the ninety-nine heavens to cultivate.
In Heavenly Imperial City, top figures from all over the Heaven Realm also gathered. Some hesitated whether to join the Heavenly Imperial Palace and become part of the ninety-nine heavens.
Among them, there were many near-deity existences.
At this moment, an astonishing aura suddenly appeared in the sky above Heavenly Imperial City. Many people sensed a coercion, their brows slightly knitted. They looked up at the firmament, and that sense of coercion was getting stronger as if signifying the arrival of some terrifying figure.
“Emperor’s might!” At this time, inside the Heavenly Imperial City, the hearts of some high-level elders were beating wildly. They felt the emperor’s might, and it was more than just one that they felt. Several Great Emperors had arrived and descended on Heavenly Imperial City.
Everyone’s hearts were palpitating; was there about to be another war?
Who were they that was coming to the Heavenly Imperial City?
Above the firmament, an unparalleled figure appeared. He was clad in a dark green robe as his black hair flew wildly in the wind. He was a middle-aged Great Emperor. Standing there, he was like a god who ruled this heaven and earth.
At the same time, in other different directions, there were also other Great Emperors there, standing above the firmament.
At this moment, the entire Heavenly Imperial City was suffocated. Even the existences of the near-deity level felt a sense of powerlessness; even individuals who were Great Emperors-to-be trembled in their hearts.
“Who are they?”
Everyone’s heart was trembling.
At the same time, Donghuang the Great, sitting cross-legged above the Heavenly Palace in the ninety-nine heavens, opened his eyes. His eyes seemed to penetrate directly through the ninety-nine heavens. He looked outside and saw those descending Great Emperors.
It came sooner than he had expected.
Had the Human Ancestor finally begun using his hidden power?!
