Seeing the five people's reactions, Qin Xuantian knew they had realized what was going on, and said slowly, "I have been paying attention to these two for a year now, and I know that this is a life-or-death struggle for destiny. I must not interfere, much less change things. Otherwise, no matter which side I stand on, the backlash I will suffer will be unbearable."
"As for you, the cause and effect in this world are all predetermined. Since you have become involved, you are also a link in the chain of cause and effect. You cannot interfere or change it. Whether you get bad results or good results, it is the result of your choices."
"The reason they were able to make the right choices is not because they were more insightful than you, but simply because their ancestors pointed them in the right direction, which enabled them to reap good results."
"Your forces are not without the ability to do this, but you simply did not choose this path. It is all due to cause and effect."
As the words fell, in the area where the Divine Firmament Sect was located, Yu Tianyue sighed inwardly. Back then, when You Rong Xuanqing came to the Divine Firmament Sect and forced them to send Ye Chen to the Reflecting Moon Sect by force, he said that this was a battle for destiny and that not letting them get involved was for their own good. Now it seems that You Rong Xuanqing was indeed acting out of good intentions...
"well……"
Nangong Ming and the other four sighed deeply, their hearts filled with no more resentment or anger, only disappointment and melancholy.
This will be a time of great contention, but in this era... there is no place for one's own power anymore.
After gazing at Chi Yuan with complicated expressions for a moment, they bowed deeply to Qin Xuantian: "Your Majesty, we have been presumptuous."
Having said that, he led the princes of each family and soared into the sky.
Oh, Li Wuwei lost the Emperor's son and only took Ye Chen's former grandfather, Ye Xiuwen. He didn't even dare to ask Rong Mingxia to release Ye Tianxiao, assuming that Ye Tianxiao was already dead, just like Ye Chen.
Chi Yuan looked up at the clear blue sky. His enmity with Ye Chen was a thing of the past. His status in the righteous world would rise to its peak as news of the Chaos Holy Body spread. No one would question him anymore, and no one should oppose him anymore.
But he knew that his path of cultivation would not be so peaceful and smooth, because a bigger storm was brewing, and the current situation was just a temporary respite.
"Young friend, I would like to have a chat with you, would that be alright?"
At this moment, Qin Xuantian flashed in front of Chi Yuan and spoke with a friendly smile.
"Don't worry, that old guy won't dare to do anything to you. He'll probably tell you some secrets, and it's about time you learned about them."
Upon hearing Liu Ruyan's telepathic message, Chi Yuan pondered for a moment before agreeing to Qin Xuantian's request, saying, "This junior will respectfully comply."
"Very good."
Qin Xuantian smiled gently, glanced at Liu Ruyan, and secretly transmitted his voice, saying, "Fellow Daoist Liu, please come to my humble abode and have a cup of tea."
...
Xuantian Sect.
Atop a floating peak, high in the sky, shrouded in auspicious light and filled with divine radiance.
Chi Yuan and Liu Ruyan sat under a crystal-clear, divinely inspired ancient tea tree, separated by a tea table, sipping the Enlightenment Tea brewed by Qin Xuantian himself using the ancient tea leaves.
After just one sip, Chi Yuan felt his comprehension had improved. He opened the system panel and saw that his comprehension had indeed increased by 300 points.
Although three hundred points of comprehension aptitude are insignificant to him now, the fact that he can increase his comprehension by three hundred points in one sip shows just how miraculous the Enlightenment Tea is.
"I was wondering who moved that ancient tea tree that had attained enlightenment in the Lesser Sumeru Realm. Turns out it was you, you old rascal."
Liu Ruyan took a sip of the Enlightenment Tea and said in a strange tone.
She first discovered this ancient tea tree in the Lesser Sumeru Realm. She originally wanted to take it away, but because the tea tree was not yet mature at that time, she was afraid of damaging its roots, so she decided to go into seclusion for a period of time before taking it away. As a result, it was gone when she came out of seclusion, which made her very angry.
"Just lucky, just lucky."
Qin Xuantian smiled awkwardly. He knew some things about Liu Ruyan, but wisely didn't bring them up. Anyway, it was all in the past, and there was no need to create more unpleasantness. He just hoped that Liu Ruyan wouldn't cause any more trouble.
"Are you also one of those lucky guys?"
Liu Ruyan rolled her eyes at Qin Xuantian, but didn't bother with the ancient tea tree that had attained enlightenment. She was only interested in Chi Yuan right now, and she wouldn't even bother to look at any other treasures placed in front of her.
"Cough cough..."
Qin Xuantian coughed twice and quickly changed the subject, looking at Chi Yuan with a serious expression: "Young friend, to be honest, I have been paying attention to you for a year. I know a little about some things about you, but I have no ill intentions towards you. I hope you will not take it to heart."
"You flatter me, senior."
Chi Yuan upheld integrity and righteousness.
Given Qin Xuantian's strength, if he harbored any ill will towards him, he would have no chance of escaping unscathed. The fact that he is sitting here today already demonstrates Qin Xuantian's goodwill.
Seeing that Chi Yuan didn't mind, Qin Xuantian breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then said, "Young friend, the reason I invited you for a chat is to tell you some secrets about Tianyuan. I predict that you will have a great deal of interaction with Tianyuan in the future, which may be helpful to you."
"Senior, I am also quite curious about Tianyuan. I wonder what secrets Tianyuan holds?"
Chi Yuan asked with a serious expression.
"This story begins a million years ago."
Qin Xuantian slowly rose, put his hands behind his back, walked to the edge of the cliff, gazed at the distant sky, and began to tell Chi Yuan his story.
"Millions of years ago, some unknown event occurred in the realm of gods, causing the connection between heaven and earth to be severed, and this world was cut off from the passage to the realm of gods."
"After the separation of heaven and earth, the innate chaotic energy existing in the chaotic world no longer generates new energy. This makes the amount of innate chaotic energy less and less, and the divine laws that maintain the operation of the innate chaotic energy also begin to gradually dissipate, causing the divine laws of this world to disappear and there is no hope of becoming a god."
"Throughout history, countless extraordinary geniuses have been born in this world. Each of them was a favorite of the Heavenly Dao, born either to meet a calamity or to fulfill a destiny. They were all favored by Heaven and Earth, becoming invincible beings who dominated for tens of thousands of years. They are the ancient supreme beings whose names are recorded in ancient history and whose fame is awe-inspiring."
"However, no matter how brilliant they were, no matter how invincible they were, no matter how close they were to becoming gods, none of them were able to break the shackles of the divine path and become true gods."
"Those who cannot become gods cannot escape the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and they are destined to slowly age under the erosion of time until the end of their lives."
"No one can resist the erosion of time, not even the invincible supreme emperors. Therefore, after the severing of the connection between heaven and earth, many ancient supreme beings who left a strong mark on history all passed away under the erosion of time and were completely annihilated in the long river of time."
"However, not all Supreme Emperors are willing to sit and perish. Every Supreme Emperor is ambitious and has the desire to become a god. In order to seek that slim chance of becoming a god, they decided to seal themselves in front of the former God Realm passage, hoping to seize the opportunity to become a god when the God Realm passage reopens."
"As time went by, more and more ancient supreme emperors chose to seal themselves off, waiting for the right time. Over time, a forbidden zone was formed in the realm where the divine passage was located. This forbidden zone is the Heavenly Abyss."
