Infinite Comprehension by Taking In Disciples: Martial Uncle, Please Ascend!-Chapter 501 - 370: Netherworld Ancestor’s Gift_2
Streamer Heavenly Venerable frowned, "The Evil Demons have been quiet for less than a hundred years, and they are preparing for war again?"
Sovereign of Origin waved his hand, "No, these Demon Divine Emperors do not harbor a killing intent."
The newcomers were all Divine Emperors of the level of Dead Spirits and the Demon Race, and their number was no less than that of the Human Tribe Divine Emperors present!
If it were not for the presence of the Sovereign of Origin, and his words, those present would have probably been ready to take action!
"Bearing the Order of Infernal Ancestor, we come to congratulate Li Cheng on stepping into the Divine Emperor's Realm!" The leader was a Ghost Clan member at the peak of the Divine Emperor's Realm, and his voice spread throughout the entire Confucian Sect.
Sovereign of Origin secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "To think that the Netherworld Ancestor would be alarmed!"
Back then, when the Confucius Ancestor and the Dragon Emperor used the Heaven and Earth Chessboard to deduce the secrets of the heavens, he was present as well, and thus he was naturally aware of the existence of the Netherworld Ancestor.
That was truly a Supreme Realm powerhouse!
But it seemed that not many people knew of the Netherworld Ancestor's existence, so at this moment, upon hearing this, aside from a handful of dozens, the rest of the faces were full of astonishment.
It seemed that these Dead Spirits and members of the Demon Race were all acting under the orders of that Netherworld Ancestor!
What kind of a background could the Netherworld Ancestor have to command such powerful beings?
Sovereign of Origin naturally wouldn't resolve these doubts for those full of confusion, and he cupped his hands towards the gathered Evil Demons who stopped a hundred miles away from the Confucian Sect, "We of the Human Tribe accept the intentions of the Netherworld Ancestor!"
The leading Ghost Clan Divine Emperor flipped his hand and a pair of half-finger gauntlets whistled towards them.
"This object was bestowed to Li Cheng by the Netherworld Ancestor, please receive it on his behalf!"
The Sovereign of Origin gestured to Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable, who, understanding, stepped forward to meet the gauntlets, "I will receive this for my younger martial brother; when he awakens, I will pass it on to him."
Just as he touched the gauntlets, Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable's face changed instantly!
The power emanating from the gauntlets was something between Divine Power and some higher level of power!
Or rather, it contained both Divine Power and a more advanced form of power, each occupying half!
What was even more strange was that with the power of Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable, he could barely lift the gauntlets, and his figure kept falling, struggling even to maintain his position in the air!
Sovereign of Origin saw the peculiarity of the gauntlets and waved a divine force to hold Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable in place.
On the other side, the Demon Divine Emperors seemed to have anticipated this and faces all showed a trace of amusement.
The leader of the Ghost Clan Divine Emperors waved his hand, "The Netherworld Ancestor's gift has been delivered, farewell!"
As his voice fell, a group of Demon Divine Emperors turned and left, quickly disappearing into the horizon.
"Awkward, I am someone brushing against the edge of the Supreme Realm, yet I almost couldn't manage these gauntlets!" Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable's face turned the color of a pig's liver, extremely embarrassed.
Sovereign of Origin examined the gauntlets and his eyelids twitched, "The Divine Realm has never seen such a powerful Divine Artifact; these are probably Supreme Artifacts used by a Supreme Realm powerhouse, aren't they?"
Whether it is called a Supreme Artifact or not, after all, in the billions of years of the Divine Realm's history, only the previous Sect Leader of Chaotic Yuan Gate, with the help of the Spirit of the World, stepped into such a realm, and he wasn't even a true Supreme Realm being, probably just a Half-Step Supreme at best.
Therefore, everything about the Supreme Realm was still very unfamiliar to the Divine Realm.
"Once my younger martial brother refines it, we will know. I want to see if my younger martial brother can actually lift it," Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable scoffed with a smile, looking up at Li Cheng, who was still closing his eyes above the Ancestral Temple of Confucianism.
He had lost face in front of so many powerhouses by handling this object, but he didn't care, only wanting to know if Li Cheng, at the initial stage of the Divine Emperor's Realm, could actually lift it.
Streamer Heavenly Venerable looked at Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable with disdain, "I'm saying, Li Cheng has countless Supreme Laws within him, and you doubt whether he can lift it? Where's your brain?"
Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable was taken aback, quickly dropping the teasing expression on his face and looking at Streamer Heavenly Venerable, "I was joking, can't you tell?"
Streamer Heavenly Venerable pointed at Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable and turned to Sovereign of Origin, "Sovereign, look at this, a Confucian Cultivator swearing!"
Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable rolled his eyes, paying no further attention to Streamer Heavenly Venerable.
Sovereign of Origin naturally did not pay Streamer Heavenly Venerable any attention either, his gaze already shifting to Li Cheng, mumbling, "I wonder how strong my martial brother's fighting capacity will be."
All present heard Sovereign of Origin's murmur, and Mysterious Fire Heavenly Venerable's eyes lit up, "Sovereign, why not let me have a try later?"
At these words, Light Destroying Heavenly Venerable instantly became furious, "Mysterious Fire, are you itching for a fight? A considerable Heavenly Venerable wanting to bully my younger martial brother?"
Mysterious Fire Heavenly Venerable hurriedly shrank his neck and fell silent.
Sovereign of Origin laughed, "My junior brother's special physique is extraordinary. Having almost fully activated it upon stepping into the Divine Emperor's Realm, I can sense his Divine Power is no weaker than that of a typical Divine Emperor with Complete Realm, plus the might of his special physique and nine Complete Laws, there are but a few in the Divine Realm who could defeat him."
"And if he refines this pair of gauntlets, within the Divine Emperor's Realm, he will be absolutely invincible!"
The evaluation of the Sovereign of Origin made Streamer Heavenly Venerable's jaw drop in astonishment!
Light Destroying Heaven Venerable's eyes brightened and he suddenly appeared beside Streamer Heavenly Venerable, patting his shoulder, "Xuan Huo, I was teasing you. You want to test our junior brother's combat strength, I fully support it!"
"Ha, Ming Mie, I was teasing you too. I've lived for countless eons, why would I have the nerve to make a move against Li Cheng?" Streamer Heavenly Venerable hastily chuckled.
Light Destroying Heaven Venerable raised an eyebrow, "You don't dare?"
"What do you mean I don't dare? Like I said, I have no face to make a move!" Streamer Heavenly Venerable stated forcefully.
Light Destroying Heaven Venerable's face was full of disdain, clearly scared by a single sentence from the Sovereign of Origin, yet still speaking as if he was justified.
Just then, Li Cheng slowly opened his eyes!
"Junior brother!"
All his senior brothers were thrilled and went forward to greet him.
Li Cheng stirred his Divine Soul and was already aware of the anomalies that had occurred before and all the congratulations from various parties, but it was not the right time to speak with everyone.
"Senior brothers, please wait a moment!" Li Cheng hastily raised his hand to stop everyone from approaching.
Everyone looked at each other with puzzled expressions. What's going on?
The next moment, with a wave of Li Cheng's hand, the Two Venerables of Young and Old appeared in the midst of the gathering!
The moment they appeared, their aura soared into the sky!
Li Cheng stepped back next to his senior brothers, "They are going to break through!"
"Who are these two?" The senior brothers were full of doubt. How could there be two people on the verge of breaking into the Divine Emperor's Realm in their junior brother's Divine World?
The aura emitted by these two—one of life, the other of death—was clearly interconnected, indicating that they had cultivated some kind of special Cultivation Technique, and their own relationship was evidently not simple.
Streamer Heavenly Venerable gradually wore a look of surprise, "So quickly they found the embodiment of the Holy Scripture of Life and Death?"
"It's actually two people? I thought it was only one!" Tian Xinghe exclaimed in astonishment.
In the Two Venerables of Young and Old, they all sensed the breath of the Holy Scripture of Life and Death!
The Sovereign of Origin glanced at them and instantly realized, "So that's how it is! The Holy Scripture of Life and Death has already merged with them. Given time, their achievements are feared to be no less than ours. The decision of Death Heavenly Venerable back then was correct!"
As he spoke, anomalies in heaven and earth reappeared, sweeping across the entire Divine Realm. However, the anomalies triggered by Li Cheng before were so vast that the current ones seemed rather insignificant by comparison.
"I knew it, it wouldn't take long for the embodiment of the Holy Scripture of Life and Death to find the God Child, but I didn't expect it to be this soon and just at the moment of stepping into the Divine Emperor's Realm," Tian Xinghe said with his tongue clicking in awe.
Everything was within expectations, yet beyond them.
"Junior brother, don't worry about them, try refining the gauntlets quickly." Light Destroying Heaven Venerable couldn't wait any longer, hastily handing over the gauntlets.
Li Cheng had already deduced with his Divine Soul what had transpired previously, and naturally knew this was a congratulatory gift from the Evil Demon Divine Emperor, sent through the Confucius Ancestor.
Li Cheng took the gauntlets and carefully examined them, "The crafting technique is ordinary, but some of the materials used are unfamiliar. These must be from the world of the Netherworld Ancestor."
Light Destroying Heaven Venerable secretly raised an eyebrow, seemingly not hearing Li Cheng's words; all he could think about was why the gauntlets, so heavy for everyone else, seemed weightless in the hands of his junior brother, being casually inspected.
"This gift is no trivial matter, once you refine it, your combat power will be unmatched," Sovereign of Origin said. Continue exploring at novelbuddy
Li Cheng gave a fist salute to the Sovereign of Origin and smiled, "Senior brother jests. Even with these gauntlets, I could not possibly be your match."
The Sovereign of Origin was already unrivaled in the Divine Realm before its evolution, and now after the evolution of the Divine Realm, he was the second to reach the Half-Step Supreme Realm following their father. Even with the aid of these gauntlets, Li Cheng could not possibly be his match.
"Ambitious!" the Sovereign of Origin joked and then added, "It's unexpected that the Netherworld Ancestor would send such a grand gift; it's a pity she's not here to see it."
Initially, he had spent a long time searching for the Netherworld Ancestor, but to no avail because she didn't wish to meet, so he simply couldn't find her.
"The Netherworld Ancestor is a woman, right?" Li Cheng asked.
The Sovereign of Origin was somewhat puzzled, "I've never seen her, so I don't know. Why do you ask, junior brother? Have you seen her?"
