Chapter 2652 The Inevitable Future
"In other words, Venerable Lingxu may have been in constant contact with Tianluo Star in the past." A red light flashed in Shuangye's eyes. "That's a condensation of an entire world. I think it's not surprising that He, as the main refiner, would secretly hide one or two fragments?"
He Lingchuan's heart tightened: "You mean, it might be secretly hoarding fragments of Tianluo Star and using them to refine its own 'Great Square Pot'?"
"Perhaps He gained insights from his own refining process and deduced that the Great Pot refined by the immortals in the mortal realm might also have the ability to transcend the barriers between the two realms. After all, the most essential main ingredient is fragments of the Heavenly Luo Star."
This is really not good news. He Lingchuan thought for a moment and said, "If He has already forged a divine artifact that can help Him descend to the mortal realm, why is He still so eager for the Great Square Pot?"
“I suspect He might be able to forge it, but I didn’t say He would definitely succeed; to put it another way, even if both artifacts can transcend the barriers of time and space, the Great Square Pot is certainly better, after all, it was born from a series of coincidences and possesses power that no other divine object can match. You should know this better than anyone else. Even if it cannot help the complete descent of the gods, it is still worth the gods’ all-out effort to seize it.”
"Besides, Lingxu Saint Venerable isn't the only Great God who hopes to descend unscathed." Shuangye added a "but," "If we can't seize the Great Pot, I believe Lingxu Saint Venerable can still come up with a backup that won't hinder his divine descent plan."
"How could someone like Him, or someone like us, possibly have only one plan when undertaking great tasks?"
He Lingchuan only asked him, "Do you have any factual evidence for what you're saying? It's not just pure wishful thinking, is it?"
Even getting something for nothing shouldn't be this simple.
“Of course there is.” Shuangye also knew that it was impossible to move the Nine Nether Emperor with just a baseless deduction. “First of all, Mitian has publicly accused Lingxu Saint Venerable more than once in the God Realm, saying that he secretly took the fragments of Tianluo Star and stole from his own. Mitian also participated in the refining of Tianluo Star, so there must be a reason why he dared to say this.”
He Lingchuan's eyes flickered slightly.
He knew one more secret than Shuangye: Mitian's predecessor was the Ancient God of Death, one of the three holy gods of the heavens.
The three holy gods worked together to capture the core of the new world and even refined it with all their might, so Mi Tian should know the quality, quantity, and characteristics of this thing better than anyone else.
If Tianluo Star is truly missing a piece for no reason, or is short of something, then it should have the right to speak on this matter.
"The Holy Venerable Lingxu originally had a trusted confidant named Jieli Tian, who was also a powerful righteous god. Later, he joined the Shali Heaven. He said that for two thousand years after the war between immortals and demons, he often secretly collected all kinds of materials from the human world for the Holy Venerable Lingxu, such as Duxia Flowing Gold and Moon White Stone, etc., which are rare in both realms. Since gods cannot descend to the mortal world themselves, it took a lot of trouble to obtain these materials."
The Frostleaf Grand Preceptor paused for a moment: "I spent several years specifically collecting materials left behind by the Great Return Sect. To be honest, they were really hard to find; they were all records from a long time ago. But I finally learned that when the First Shore Immortal and others were refining another divine artifact, Du Xia Flowing Gold and Moon White Stone were both the most important auxiliary materials. Du Xia Flowing Gold is a rare liquid metal that specifically helps the divine artifact solidify, while the role of Moon White Stone is to help the divine artifact gather and attract the essence of the sun and moon. Can you guess which divine artifact this is?"
He Lingchuan didn't even need to think twice:
"A large square pot?"
“That’s right. These materials were also used when the immortals forged the Great Square Pot. Do you think that Venerable Lingxu used the fragments of Tianluo Star to privately create a divine artifact?” said the Frost Leaf National Preceptor. “Furthermore, Venerable Lingxu went into seclusion three times at the Ancient Volcano in the Heavenly Realm, for two hundred, three hundred, and five hundred years respectively. The Ancient Volcano is the oldest volcano in the Heavenly Realm, containing the 'Primordial Fire' of the Heavenly Realm. It is said that the divine artifacts of the Three Holy Gods, and even the divine essence of the God of Life, were forged here, so its flames are also called the true 'Divine Fire'.”
"During the period of the Holy Venerable Lingxu's seclusion, the Ancient Volcano became a forbidden zone in the Heavenly Realm, and no other gods could set foot there; after the Holy Venerable emerged from seclusion, the Ancient Volcano calmed down. When other gods approached, they found that the temperature of the Earth's core fire had dropped sharply, far less intense than usual, and even the temperature of the entire mountain area had decreased, taking fifty or sixty years to recover."
He Lingchuan pondered, "So, the divine fire has been consumed?"
“Yes, this phenomenon only appeared after the forging of divine artifacts in the past.” Grand Preceptor Shuangye shrugged. “Therefore, the legend of Venerable Lingxu forging divine artifacts has a long history. However, given his status and ability, he can forge whatever he wants without having to report to anyone.”
“Direct evidence is impossible,” the Frostleaf Grand Preceptor sighed. “We are talking about the Holy Venerable Lingxu, a figure who can control everything in the divine realm. I can only tell you these signs and my own deductions; whether you believe them or not is up to you.”
"This is not good news." Both of them knew that there was no solution to this problem. Even if the Holy Venerable Lingxu truly forged this divine artifact, no one could steal it from Him.
What He Lingchuan needs to do is recognize the harsh reality of the future, abandon his last bit of illusion, and prepare to engage in the most brutal battle!
He thought for a moment, then suddenly changed the subject: "Once the Holy Mother of Jindu descends to the mortal realm, she will come looking for you, right? The so-called 'a mother's status rises with her son' means she will see you as her most powerful weapon."
The Imperial Preceptor Shuangye remained silent.
He Lingchuan asked again, "Can you disobey His command?"
Unlike ordinary living beings, the Tsushima Oni-za is not an independent individual. Strictly speaking, it is a mixture of the divine powers and offspring of the Tsushima Mother, and belongs to the Tsushima Mother.
Therefore, He Lingchuan's question was actually quite hurtful.
Shuangye's expression remained calm: "We'll find out when the time comes."
What he's about to do has no precedent whatsoever, so how can he talk about the odds of success?
"The secret of the Holy Venerable Lingxu privately forging divine artifacts sounds frightening, but it's elusive and even Mi Tian can't verify it." If Mi Tian had evidence, he would have presented it long ago. "It's not fair to take away a treasure that can buy you lifelong freedom based on just this conjecture."
Shuangye knew he was bargaining: "What else do you want?"
He Lingchuan pondered for a moment: "I also want to know some definite information. If you can provide it, I will not only give you the guiding light, but also guide you on how to use it, saving you the trouble of figuring it out yourself. After all, you don't have much time left, and time is the most precious thing for you, isn't it?"
"Likewise." The Frostleaf Grand Preceptor's lips curled slightly. The gods are about to descend, and aren't Cang Yan and Jiu You also facing great calamity? Ha, no one should laugh at anyone else. "What information do you want to find out? Let me make it clear beforehand, I am still the Grand Preceptor of Bega."
