The Post Sky Tipping Era-Chapter 1248 - 1010: The Stirring of the Primordial Embryo
"It seems my plan for my avatar’s revenge will have to be temporarily put on hold. All the Heavenly Venerates in the Heavenly Realm are watching me. If I continue causing trouble, I might not even be safe in the Land of Origin."
"Then I’ll hide for a while, but it won’t be too long."
In the Land of Origin, Li Yi once again broke free from his shackles, jumping out of a world and returning to himself. At this moment, Chaos Qi enveloped him, and within his body, heaven and earth were formed.
His Primordial Spirit had the Three Flowers above his head and the Thirty-sixth Grade Purple Lotus below his feet. At this moment, in his Chaos World, he was waiting to reopen the heavens, transform into the world, and break the realm to become a Venerate.
Li Yi had already reached the pinnacle of the Heavenly Emperor Realm, and there was no further progress. However, the path to becoming a Venerate was laid before him.
But he wasn’t in a rush for success and instead continued to practice in the Land of Origin because Li Yi believed that even among the Heavenly Venerates, there were differences in strength.
Thus, even if Li Yi wanted to become a Venerate, he aimed to become the most powerful Heavenly Venerate; otherwise, he might face the fate of the Heavenly God Clan’s Heavenly Venerate, surrounded and killed by other Venerates, eventually perishing in the Chaos World.
Even if his True Spirit remained undestroyed, it was not much different from death.
So, to avoid following in the footsteps of the Heavenly God Clan’s Heavenly Venerate, Li Yi needed to be fully prepared.
With this mindset, Li Yi once again dedicated himself wholeheartedly to cultivation in the Land of Origin.
And with Li Yi’s silence, the strong factions situated in the Seventh Heaven of the Heavenly Realm finally had a moment to breathe, no longer suffering attacks from the Divine Emperor Taiyi.
However, the wounds Li Yi left them were too severe. Even if he no longer appeared, the major strong factions of the Heavenly Realm remained vigilant and cautious.
Thus, time passed, a year, two years, three years... ten years flew by.
In the Heavenly Realm, ten years is a brief time.
But many believed that the Divine Emperor Taiyi might truly have fallen and wouldn’t appear again, possibly eliminated by a Heavenly Venerate in secret.
"Li Yi, this guy, dead? I’m not convinced. He’s probably hiding somewhere, secretly cultivating." In a corner of the Heavenly Realm, the Hua Qing Heavenly King who had emerged from seclusion, after inquiring about the news once again, shook his head slightly, not believing Li Yi would die so easily.
When he was merely a remnant soul, he had followed Li Yi for many years, understanding this inherently evil fellow inside out.
Not only Hua Qing thought this way.
Within the Third Layer Heaven, the hidden Divine Emperor’s Son, Dragon God Heavenly King, and Divine Punishment Heavenly King also didn’t believe the Divine Emperor Taiyi would fade away so easily; they only deemed the current situation too dire to emerge and stir trouble.
But this turmoil by the Divine Emperor Taiyi forced all races to abandon their plan to siege the remnants of the Heavenly God Clan, granting the near-extinct clan a prolonged period for recuperation.
However, the Heavenly God Clan inevitably could not produce a new Heavenly Emperor in the short term, and decline was unavoidable.
Another ten years slipped by.
The Divine Emperor Taiyi remained absent, and this twenty-year wait led most to believe that this storm-making powerhouse might have truly perished.
The major strong factions finally relaxed a bit, beginning to recuperate and rebuild the ancestral lands.
But on this day, twenty years later, a mysterious fetal movement resonated within the chaos. The sound wasn’t loud, yet it shook the chaos, as if something was being birthed.
This anomaly instantly alarmed the Heavenly Emperors residing in the Chaos World.
"What’s happening? Why is there a sound of chaotic fetal movement, could a Heavenly Venerate be attempting a method?"
"Chaos fetal movement, is something about to emerge? What could it be? Could it be a Chaos Spiritual Treasure? Legend has it that the weapons used by Heavenly Venerates are Spiritual Treasures nurtured within the Chaos World, beyond human craftsmanship."
"The Chaos Qi seems to be declining, like it’s being absorbed..."
The Heavenly Emperors hidden within the Chaos World were shocked, speculating continuously.
However, very soon.
Several silhouettes appeared in the Chaos World. Though these figures seemed small, they were infinitely large in actuality. Their mere appearance swept away a swath of chaos, and all dangers and disasters hidden in the Chaos World rapidly retreated from this place.
In merely a moment.
The ground they stood upon transformed into a vibrant continent, like an immortal realm.
This is a use of the Power of Creation, capable of miraculously manifesting all things.
This power is what the cultivators in the Heavenly Realm often referred to as the power of a Heavenly Venerate.
Eight Heavenly Venerates appeared, drawn by the chaotic movement, residing long-term in the Chaos World, seldom active within the Heavenly Realm.
Moreover, the eight Heavenly Venerates had not gathered together in countless years; even during the day of besieging the Heavenly God Clan’s Venerate, only four had convened.
"A new Heavenly Venerate is about to be born..." a youthful Daoist said slowly, with an ancient Dao Trace at his forehead resembling lightning.
This was the legendary Thunder God Heavenly Venerate who commanded the thirty-six Thunder Emperors of the Thunder Department.
Nobody anticipated that the Venerate born of ten thousand thunders would have such an image.
"Is it Taiyi?" Rakshasa Heavenly Venerable said with a somber face. His hair was fiery red, youthful and handsome, bare-chested, with paths of blood-red Dao traces crisscrossing his skin, exuding a fierce aura.
He immediately thought of the most likely candidate for becoming a Heavenly Venerate.
Although Rakshasa Venerate detested Taiyi, he had to admit that of all the Heavenly Realm emperors, only Taiyi had the best chance of becoming a new Heavenly Venerate.
Not to mention, the fallen Divine Clan Venerate would certainly assist in secret.
"What we feared finally happened. To cause such a quick chaotic fetal movement and birth a new Venerate, one could have only achieved this by going to the Land of Origin." Ancestor Dragon Heavenly Venerable said calmly.
"This moment is both the opponent’s time to become a Venerate and his day of peril." The Heavenly Human Clan Venerable said flatly, "Such a fetal movement undoubtedly exposes the opponent’s location, and though the Chaos World is vast, it cannot hinder the Heavenly Venerates’ steps."
"Do you wish to block him from becoming a Venerate?" the Human Race Heavenly Venerable asked, "This does not align with our previous agreement."
Previously, the nine Heavenly Venerates had sworn an oath to the Heavenly Dao, never to obstruct the ascension of new Venerates, or else be cast into eternal reincarnation.
For Heavenly Venerates, who do not die nor perish, being trapped in reincarnation, unable to return to their venerable position, is the greatest tragedy.
"If Taiyi becomes a Venerate and the Divine Clan Venerate returns, settling old and new scores together, we shall have no peace. As for the old oaths, I’m a Heavenly Venerate now; heaven is in my grasp, why heed such oaths? Moreover, circumstances change, and none expected a single clan to birth two Venerates."
The Heavenly Human Clan Venerable stated. Clearly, he was determined to prevent the rise of a new Heavenly Venerate.
"I stand with you." The Rakshasa Clan’s Venerable immediately agreed without hesitation.
Some of the other Venerates maintained their calm expressions, unmoved, while others frowned in thought, appearing to hesitate.
Yet, the fetal movement within the chaos continued, with signs of intensifying, proving the other’s cultivation had reached a crucial moment.
The Breakthrough happens now.
But to intervene in such a matter would not only mean breaking the previous vows, but possibly making a mortal enemy of a new Heavenly Venerate. Should this obstruction succeed, all would be well.
Should it fail, it would become a vendetta with no respite.
Eventually, the Demon Race’s Venerate sighed, "It has come to this, I will join you."
The ancestral land of the Demon Race was destroyed by Taiyi, and as their Venerate, he had to do something, for being trampled under by a Divine Emperor was intolerable.
"Good."
Rakshasa Venerate glanced at the others and understood their intent seeing that the remaining Venerates remained unmoved.
Without further delay, the three Venerates set off together, treading on Chaos Qi, crossing barriers, pursuing this chaotic fetal movement. They came for one reason: to find Li Yi.
