Not long after the Lord of the Universe announced to Ling Tian that he would delay for ten thousand years, the Creation Divine Tree suddenly sensed something amiss in the universe: its Origin Power was slowly diminishing. The rate was very slow, but there was no doubt that it was indeed decreasing.
Back then, the Creation Divine Tree had given the Lord of the Universe a considerable portion of its Origin Power. Although the Lord of the Universe had completely refined that power, making it difficult even for the Creation Divine Tree to take back, it was still the energy it knew best. So it could sense its movements and even how much remained.
Before Ling Tian and the others could ask anything, it continued, "It's not only my Origin Power that's slowly diminishing. Even the power of the World-Ending Lightning Tribulation that belongs to the World-Ending Thunder Dragon seems to be decreasing."
"What? Even my Origin Power is slowly diminishing?!" The Creation Divine Tree's voice rose several notches. As it said this, it carefully sensed the change. Though it wasn't as gifted at this as the Creation Divine Tree, it didn't take long to notice it, either. In a grave voice, it said, "That's right. It's decreasing. The rate is extremely slow, but there's no doubt that it's diminishing."
"Why is the Origin Power belonging to both our seniors decreasing?" Dan Bi asked, full of confusion. She had voiced the very question Ling Tian and the others wanted answered.
"How would I know what that Demon God fellow is up to?" the Creation Divine Tree said irritably. "In any case, my Origin Power is diminishing, and that's both good news and bad news for Ling Tian."
"What's the good news, and what's the bad news?" You Ye asked curiously.
