Chapter 1219: Chapter 1210: The Birth and Destruction of an Era
“I originally thought that the one to form a joyous union with him would be Miss Xinzhi.”
Tian Xinzhi had just pulled the two to sit down when Flame Phoenix Saintess suddenly glanced at Mo Wangchen and spoke.
“Uh…”
As these words emerged, everyone present was momentarily stunned, Bai Jincheng couldn’t help but spit out the wine he had just drunk, “Thirteen, do you and Miss Xinzhi also have… um… an affair? Didn’t see that coming…”
“Sister Feng, please don’t joke around. Brother Mo and I have always been just good friends.”
Tian Xinzhi was somewhat tongue-tied, not expecting Flame Phoenix Saintess to speak so startlingly.
“Oh, then I misunderstood. Back at Xuanwu Alliance, Mo Wangchen swept across the heavens slaying the Saint Heir, the four great Saint Masters descended upon Nanyang City to try and kill him. At that time, he was nearly an enemy to the world, yet only Miss Xinzhi stood with him on the same line.” Feng Qing continued.
“Hey, I have to disagree with you; back then, Luoyue Immortal Palace also strongly supported Brother Mo!” Mu Xi argued discontentedly.
Beside them, Green Emperor seemed to sigh with emotions, “Thinking back to those days feels somewhat incredible. At that time, a Saint Master was the supreme ruler below the Holy Emperor—who would have known that after nine hundred years, everyone’s strength has transformed beyond recognition, not to mention Saint Masters, even Demigods can be obliterated with a flick of a finger.”
“I have to say, the most extraordinary one is Brother Mo. Nowadays, his opponents are beings at the Ancient King Level, while many among us are still stuck in the Heavenly Immortal Realm.” Tian Xinzhi smiled wryly.
“The more we advance, the less the cultivation level decides anything. Ultimately, it depends on how much one comprehends the Law. Truthfully speaking, I am only at the Middle Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm now, much lower than most of you here,” Mo Wangchen said.
“That’s too much. At the Middle Stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, you are far beyond ordinary Demigod Realm experts. Thirteen, I suspect you are just pretending!” Bai Jincheng said.
“There’s no pretending here, the fact is that Brother Mo’s strength even surpasses Brother Qing, right? Haha, once he proves the path and becomes a god, who could stop him?” Mu Xi laughed and said.
“Across the world’s heroes, only the Heavenly Dragon Emperor poses a noteworthy threat; he most likely acquired the Divine Status from the Heavenly Dragon King, not to be underestimated. Brother Mo, you must be careful with him.” Green Emperor said.
Mo Wangchen nodded, then raised his glass, “No need to say so much more, those who should have come are almost all here; let’s toast.”
Everyone laughed, raised their glasses for a toast together, enjoying immensely.
The Big White Dog and Mu Xi competed in a drinking bout, while Zhang Hao and Jing Yun, among Mo Wangchen’s disciples, held a few entertaining demonstrations.
After half a round of drinks, Mu Ruqing seemed to recall something and said, “By the way, on my way here, I passed through Time City and heard of something.”
Everyone was curious, gazing towards her, before Mu Ruqing could speak, Flame Phoenix Saintess also put down her wine cup and said, “In the past couple of days, a mysterious young man has appeared in Time City. He has clashed with many talents from different forces, seemingly invincible; even many of the older generation Demigod Realm Great Powers have been defeated by him.”
“Oh?”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces inevitably showed interest, “Could he be an Emperor talent from the Ancient Clan or the Human Clan?”
Mu Ruqing shook her head, looking towards Mo Wangchen, “This person’s strength seems no weaker than the Emperor Xuanwu you killed back then. Interestingly, he has been challenging young talents of both the Human and Ancient Clans in Time City for days now; his strength is formidable, unmatched even by some of the older generation masters, yet this person seems never to have appeared before, no one knows him.”
Feng Qing nodded and said, “These past few days, Time City has been buzzing with this; both Human and Ancient Clans are investigating his origins, but they haven’t found a single trace. He just emerged from nowhere, even with my Divine Eyes viewing, nothing revealed.”
“The Daluo Heaven Realm is vast and boundless, its talents like countless stars in the sky. Previously, there were some talents hidden away, perhaps this person is one, just newly emerged, having never been seen before, it wouldn’t be surprising.” Mo Wangchen smiled, not too concerned.
Upon hearing this, Mu Ruqing nodded, “Aside from that, there’s something quite peculiar.”
“What?” Mo Wangchen asked curiously.
Flame Phoenix Saintess said, “In the world, many cultivators wield spiritual powers in white luminescence, and the Ancient Clan as well; their purple-black mist that encircles them is an innate evil aura, not spiritual power. Yet, when I observed that mysterious youth’s clashes several times, whatever Holy Technique or spell he employed, the spiritual power he activated was gray.”
“Gray spiritual power?” Upon hearing this, everyone couldn’t help but be startled.
This matter truly seemed strange, gray spiritual power—across history and ancient texts—there appears to be no record of it.
“Gray?!”
Beside them, the Big White Dog, having competed in drinks with Mu Xi and drank an unknown number of cups, now intensely flushed, upon hearing Flame Phoenix Saintess’s words, was suddenly shocked, entirely sober, looking towards her, “Are you sure?”
“What’s wrong?” Seeing this, Mo Wangchen furrowed his brows.
This Big White Dog’s origins are extraordinary; not only was he the White Saint Emperor of the past, but also an Ancient Being who held a Divine Position within the Ancient Heavenly Court. In ordinary days, he is carefree in speech and conduct, taking nothing seriously; for him to reveal such a surprised expression now is the first time Mo Wangchen has seen.
The Big White Dog fell silent in place, furrowing his brows, after a while, he looked toward Mo Wangchen, “Kid, did Lin Feng ever mention the Void Realm to you?”
“Void Realm?”
Mo Wangchen was taken aback; isn’t that the place where he obtained his Divine Status while in the Heavenly Gang Heavenly God Court?
“Not the Void Realm from the Heavenly God Institute, but another; the real Void Realm!” The Big White Dog looked solemn.
“This realm is your master’s Dharma, and the Dharma’s true form is a butterfly—born with two wings, one wing representing virtual, the other real; wing spreads for all creation, wing closes for all extinction, spreading wings signifies the birth of a new era, closing wings means the collision of virtual and real realms, the end of all things, the epoch’s silence.”
“The virtual and real wings representing two different worlds; we exist within the Real World. Like the stars seen at night, combined they form the real wing, which is the world we live in.”
“The Void Realm is positioned exactly in the opposing direction, the butterfly’s other wing; the butterfly’s Dharma closes its wings once, requiring billions of years, each closure marks the destruction of an era, reopening wings births a new epoch…”
“Gray spiritual power… is the mark of the Void Realm practitioners… and that Sealing God Tablet…”
As speaking reached this point, a matchless look of trepidation flashed across Big White Dog’s eyes, “Indeed… My previous conjecture… is it truly to be verified?”
