Chapter 1748 Deep Slumber
Lin Qiye suppressed the emotions in his heart, looked up at this scene, and frowned.
“Destiny, was this also within your calculations?” he asked hoarsely.
“I’m not omniscient or all-seeing, nor can I predict the future. How could I calculate every step?” Monk Destiny shook his head. “I had Chloe give him a chess piece. If he could join us and betray the Three Pillar Gods, our advantage would definitely expand again…
But I didn’t expect him to crush the chess piece directly, completely unwilling to join forces with us. Even I can’t fathom what he’s thinking.”
After taking away nine Ke-system gods in one go, An Qingyu seemed unwilling to linger any longer.
He put his hood back on, gave Lin Qiye one last glance, then turned and stepped into the Gate of Truth. The outline of the gate gradually dispersed and finally disappeared without a trace…
Everything happened too quickly. By the time the gods reacted, the originally chaotic battlefield had fallen into a deathly silence.
“So they still got away…” Jiang Ziya squinted his eyes and couldn’t help but yawn.
“Strange, why do I feel so drowsy?”
“Me too, I seem to be getting more and more tired…”
Having lost the stimulation of the divine battle, a strong drowsiness washed over the hearts of the Daxia gods. They could sense that their divine marks seemed to be changing, and they all looked toward the moon that was so distant it had almost disappeared, their eyes full of confusion.
“Have you vented enough? If you have, then go.” Monk Destiny said.
“Go? Where?”
“The Celestial Court,” Monk Destiny said calmly. “The benefits that the Eternal Pill brings to the Celestial Court far outweigh suppressing the lunar seal… Wipe away your tears, straighten your chest. You should represent humanity and see them off.”
…
Eternal Celestial Court.
“Divine power is still increasing… what’s going on?” The Virtue Heavenly Venerable looked at his hands with confusion in his brow.
“The Eternal Pill has merged with the Celestial Court’s origin, bringing qualitative changes to both it and this divine realm itself. All our Daxia gods’ divine marks are closely connected to the origin, so naturally, we will receive eternal nourishment in return,” the Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable’s expression was somewhat complex.
“Simply put, our entire Daxia divine system is ascending to a higher level… This ascension is not as simple as just increasing divine power; our upper limits will also be raised simultaneously. Some beings who are already at the peak of certain realms might take this opportunity to break through barriers.”
“Are you saying that the top-tier main gods might step into the Supreme realm?” The Virtue Heavenly Venerable exclaimed in surprise, then seemed to realize something. “What about you?”
“Having experienced the true self cycle, my realm has reached perfection. With this opportunity… I want to try to break through to that realm.”
Hearing these words, both the Primordial Heavenly Venerable and the Virtue Heavenly Venerable were shocked.
“If you enter that realm, and more main gods break through to the Supreme, then even without massive faith, the Celestial Court would stand shoulder to shoulder with Heaven… or even higher!” The Primordial Heavenly Venerable’s eyes were extremely bright.
“Correct, this is an unprecedented opportunity for the entire Celestial Court.” The Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable paused for a moment. “But the ascension of the entire divine system cannot be achieved overnight. We may need to enter dormancy…”
“Dormancy?” The Virtue Heavenly Venerable frowned slightly. “Come to think of it, I do feel somewhat drowsy now…”
“How long will this dormancy last?”
“Hard to say. At least three to five years, at most several decades. This opportunity has never occurred before, so I can’t make a definitive conclusion.”
The Primordial Heavenly Venerable frowned deeply. After pondering for a moment, he still shook his head. “No, the timing is too critical. An Qingyu has taken away nine Ke-system gods. The battle power those nine divine beings possess is enough to sweep through any divine realm that existed on Earth before. They’ve gone from light to darkness, and no one knows when they might make a comeback.
If we fall into dormancy, what will happen to Earth?”
The three Heavenly Venerables fell silent simultaneously.
“In that case… we can only forcibly interrupt the ascension.” The Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable sighed. “Although it’s a pity, there’s no other choice…”
“The ascension cannot be interrupted.”
At this moment, a voice came from afar.
The three Heavenly Venerables turned to look and saw three identical “Lin Qiyes” slowly descending to the center of the Eternal Celestial Court.
The Lin Qiye on the left had six pure white wings on his back, with a scorching and sacred aura; the Lin Qiye on the right wore a muddy kasaya, with an indifferent expression; the Lin Qiye in the center wore a deep red cloak, his eyes still somewhat reddened.
“You…” The Virtue Heavenly Venerable looked at the three Lin Qiyes before him, momentarily confused.
“The ascension of the Eternal Celestial Court is a crucial winning move on the future chessboard. If interrupted now, it would reduce short-term risk, but making it difficult to win this chess game in the future.” Monk Destiny calmly spoke.
The Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable glanced at Monk Destiny, then returned his gaze to the central Lin Qiye, asking with concern:
“But if the Celestial Court falls into dormancy, what about Daxia?”
“Daxia is no longer what it once was.” Lin Qiye pointed to the distant Earth. “Since Commander Ye’s era, Daxia has consistently cultivated human powerhouses. Now the seeds have matured. Even without the Celestial Court’s protection, humanity can stand on its own.”
The three Heavenly Venerables exchanged glances, seemingly still hesitant.
Humanity’s current battle power is not weak. In the past, they might even have had the ability to challenge any divine realm on Earth single-handedly. But now they face nine Ke-system gods hiding in the shadows, along with the “Key to the Gate” and the “Black Goat.” The risk is enormous.
This is a huge gamble. If won, Earth would possess a super divine realm surpassing Heaven; if lost, everything would be in vain.
Whether they could bet the fate of this universe on humanity… this was what concerned the three Heavenly Venerables.
“The gods have protected all beings for too long. From now on, we should fight for our own destiny.” The three Lin Qiyes simultaneously clasped their fists and bowed deeply to the three Heavenly Venerables.
“Please let the Daxia gods enter dormancy.”
Seeing this, the Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable finally sighed: “For you to actively make this request, you must already have a countermeasure… In that case, we will take this gamble with you. I hope these two thousand years of accumulation have enabled you to lead all of humanity to unprecedented heights.”
The Virtue Heavenly Venerable looked at the Spiritual Treasure Heavenly Venerable in surprise. He hadn’t expected that Spiritual Treasure would dare to bet such an important matter on Lin Qiye and humanity… he was still just a young man in his early twenties.
The Primordial Heavenly Venerable, however, wore an expression that suggested he had expected this. His gaze swept over Spiritual Treasure and Lin Qiye.
“Indeed, the person who had a private conversation with you two thousand years ago and borrowed the Eastern Emperor Bell was Lin Qiye…”
“What?” The Virtue Heavenly Venerable was startled upon hearing this.
“In that case, this poor Daoist has no objections… Lin Qiye, the future of humanity and this chess game is now in your hands.” The Primordial Heavenly Venerable relaxed and slowly spoke.
