Three months later, the God of Qingfeng and the Goddess Zimu officially became divine couples.

On this day, the entire divine race was bustling with activity, with almost all the gods going to offer their congratulations or send gifts. Only the High God Yunyao chose to go into seclusion to break through his cultivation barrier on this day.

All the gods regarded this as Yun Yao's ordinary advancement, unaware that from this moment on, the seeds of evil had already been sown...

On the day Yun Yao went into seclusion, Chu Yu and Hua were also blocked outside by the formation and were unable to enter. However, during this period, with the approaching news of Qingfeng Shangshen and the others' wedding, Chu Yu and Hua had been by Yun Yao's side almost all the time. They knew better than anyone that Yun Yao's choice to go into seclusion at this time was undoubtedly taking a huge risk.

Hua frowned, her brows furrowed with worry. "Chu Yu, I have a strong feeling that the way God Yun Yao will turn out is probably related to this incident!"

"If we hadn't witnessed it with our own eyes recently, it would be hard to imagine that the virtuous and gentle God Yunyao would later fall into demonic possession and cause such a great calamity, resulting in the suffering of all living beings in the six realms!"

"Liao Liao, I know what you mean, but there's nothing we can do right now. He can't see us, and we can only watch..."

The God of Yunyao emerged from seclusion in just three thousand years, and none of the gods noticed anything amiss. They only sensed that the God of Yunyao's cultivation had reached a higher level.

But on the day Yun Yao emerged from seclusion, Hua looked at him, hesitated for a long time, and said, "Chu Yu, do you feel that there is anything different about God Yun Yao's emergence from seclusion this time?"

"What aspect is Liao Liao referring to?"

"His cultivation has improved even further, you could even say it's more than a step!"

"Chu Yu, don't you find this strange?"

"strangeness?"

"Don't you feel that Yun Yao has gained a touch of evil and lost a touch of divinity?"

Hearing Hua say this, Chu Yu frowned and observed for a long time, but finally shook his head, "I haven't found anything yet."

Hua asked in confusion, "Could it be that I saw it wrong?"

She kept twirling her fingers around the ends of her hair. Logically, this shouldn't be the case; her intuition had never been wrong over the years.

Chu Yu spoke solemnly, "Liao Liao, although I didn't notice anything, I trust you. If God Yun Yao was already acting strangely from this point on, then..."

"The subsequent war between gods and demons must have been premeditated long ago!"

After all, if his calculations are correct, there should still be about 100,000 years until the war between gods and demons takes place!

It must be said that Yun Yao is indeed exceptionally talented in cultivation. Although his current cultivation level is not considered outstanding among the gods, he is only a little under 100,000 years old. Among his peers, his cultivation level is almost unparalleled!

Moreover, given his talent and cultivation speed, Chu Yu believed that if given another 100,000 years, it was not impossible for his cultivation to approach that of an Ancestral God!

The more Chu Yu learned about Yun Yao, the more amazed he became by Yun Yao's extraordinary talent. Putting aside everything he did later, Yun Yao was the first person he admired so much in all these years!

After Yun Yao emerged from seclusion, his daily life consisted of practicing swordsmanship and reading. Chu Yu and Hua Zhi stayed by his side almost every step of the way, except when Yun Yao entered the meditation room.

Time flows differently in the Candle Dragon's Dream than outside, so it's unclear how much time has passed outside...

Fifty thousand years later...

"Hey, have you heard? Someone in the lower realm broke through to godhood today!"

"Of course I know! This is quite a big event for our divine race! After all, there hasn't been a new god for seventy thousand years!!"

"Moreover, I heard that he's not even fifty thousand years old!"

"This could be recorded in the annals of gods, right?"

"you do not say!"

She stared at Chu Yu with wide eyes, she really wanted to see him too!

The birth of a new god is such a grand event that even Hua Du has never seen before!

The longing in her eyes was almost overflowing, how could Chu Yu not understand? But, "Liao Liao, you know, we can't leave Yun Yao's side."

"well!"

However, just when Hua Du felt hopeless, suddenly, she and Chu Yu were pulled forward by a tremendous force.

"Chu Yu!"

Hua panicked and quickly grabbed Chu Yu's hand.

In an instant, they arrived at a new place, surrounded by gods who were all asking questions of the young man in the middle.

"Hey, how exactly do you cultivate? How can it be so solid and fast?"

To ascend to godhood at the age of 50,000—that's a truly terrifying cultivation speed!

"Thank you all for your kind words, but I am still learning."

The surrounding noise was exceptionally loud, so I retreated a little.

"Liao Liao, does that deity look familiar to you?"

"Um?"

"It feels like I've seen it somewhere before."

"Ah! I remember now!"

The two exchanged a glance and exclaimed in unison, "Shang Shen Yi!"

They looked at the handsome man who had just become a god. Although he was quite different from the one they had seen in the Wanxi Sword Path, his general appearance had not changed.

From that day on, Hua and Chu discovered that, in addition to being by Yun Yao's side, they could also be by Shang Shenyi's side. Logically speaking, this was Zhulong's dream, Yun Yao's past, so why could they see Shang Shenyi?

The answer wasn't found until another 50,000 years later...

Recently, the God Yun Yao has been acting increasingly strangely, and this strangeness is not only felt by Hua, but also by Chu Yu.

After creating the human realm, the Ancestral God was clearly powerless. However, in recent thousands of years, wars between different realms have been frequent and resentment has been rampant, which has seriously disrupted the balance between the realms. Therefore, under these circumstances, the Ancestral God used his own heart's blood to nurture two Pure Lotuses!

As the Ancestral God returned to the void, he summoned the High God Mi'e to the hall, saying, "Mi'e, he has ultimately strayed further and further down the path of demonic cultivation..."

"Everything will be alright in the end, Ancestral God, there is no need to worry!"

"Why do you need to say these things to me? I'm sure that once I vanish into the void, the Six Realms will be thrown into chaos."

"Ancestral God..."

"Keep this Pure World Lotus seed safe. When it blooms, it will be even more powerful than the Pure World Lotus you've already used. At that time... you can also use it to kill Yun Yao!"

Neither the Ancestral God nor the Supreme God of Mi'e noticed that Yun Yao, whom they were talking about, was right outside the door. The Ancestral God's words caused Yun Yao's eyes to instantly fill with dark red, which was extremely strange and evil!

"Chu Yu..."

A wave of fear washed over Hua; sure enough, her worst fears were about to come true...

"If necessary, eliminate the other one first!"

"The Ancestral God! He... has never made a single wrong step!"

Mi'e stared at the Ancestral God in shock, never expecting the Ancestral God to be so resolute!

"But he shouldn't have existed in this world in the first place!"

"Even if it has flesh and blood, it is nothing more than a wisp of divine thought!"
