Chapter 248
The Huaxia Heavenly Palace is fully prepared.
She can now try to embrace Authority of God.
Suddenly, someone rushed in, shouting urgently, "Marquis! Urgent report!"
Marquis of Wind Pavilion's expression hardened, and he established Spirit Connection with the message, receiving it.
Marquis of Wind Pavilion's expression changed drastically.
Everyone present held their breath, waiting for her to announce the news.
Li Yang remained calm. Her Heaven and Earth Contract with Daowu was still in effect, so the Upper Three Realms would not declare war on the Huaxia Heavenly Palace.
However, for the Marquis of Wind Pavilion to be so astonished, the news must be extremely earth-shattering.
Marquis of Wind Pavilion swallowed hard and said, "Daowu has released dozens of Authority of God, and all the Ninth-Grade Supreme beings of the Lost Space Society have been promoted to Divine Venerable. Moreover... Ninth-Grade Supreme who joins the Lost Space Society can go to the First Realm Domain to choose a suitable Authority of God."
Even those who were mentally prepared were still shocked upon hearing the news.
Someone suddenly stood up and exclaimed, "This... this is impossible!"
"Are they insane? To so casually accept Authority of God will surely come at a huge price!"
Marquis of Wind Pavilion Fengting said in a deep voice, "They don't even want this Astral Realm anymore, so why would they care about the cost?"
Li Yang had been to the First Realm Domain and knew that Daowu Daowu used that enormous Tree of Fate to bind countless Authority of God.
At this moment, he released dozens of Authority of God, which allowed the fragmented Upper Three Realms to reunite.
The advantage that the Huaxia Realm Domain had held for the past eight years was instantly overwhelmed by him.
This is terrifying.
Even the high-ranking officials of the Huaxia Heavenly Palace present couldn't help but be tempted after hearing about so much Authority of God.
They've been stuck at the Ninth-Grade Supreme for too long, and they desperately want to take the next step.
Now, as long as one joins the Lost Space Society, one can choose the Authority of God...
This is an astonishing temptation for Ninth-Grade Supreme in the entire Astral Realm.
Not only Ninth-Grade Supreme, but even a Peak Eighth Grade Half-Step Supreme would be moved!
The Huaxia Alliance was originally an organization that came together only temporarily.
If anyone becomes greedy, this seemingly massive alliance will collapse instantly.
Li Yang, however, remained surprisingly calm. She said, "This is enough to prove... that Daowu fearless."
Everyone present was shocked and turned to look at Li Yang.
Li Yang calmly swept his gaze across everyone and said, "The fate of the Upper Three Realms is sealed; he is merely making a death throes!"
"But those Authority of God..."
Li Yang said, "Daowu collected these Authority of God to build a new world. Do you think he would easily give them away to others? He's merely using this method to temporarily raise a puppet army. When the time is right, he will sacrifice them all to create a new world!"
These words immediately calmed everyone present down.
Marquis of Wind Pavilion seized the opportunity to speak up, saying, "That's right! Moreover, these Authority of God were originally stolen Daowu the Lotus Domain by Dao Wucong! These are the foundation of the Astral Realm! They are used to support the existence of the Lotus Domain! We must seize them back so that we can protect our homeland!"
In fact, these were all Marquis of Wind Pavilion's guesses, but as long as she spoke with enough certainty, it would be the truth to others.
Daowu's move was far too ruthless.
Li Yang knew exactly what he was doing, and it was very effective.
Those Authority of God are enough to make people flock to them.
Daowu's goal was clear: he abandoned the old world and wanted to create a new one.
The conditions for creating a new world are extremely demanding.
Even with Lianxin, the success rate is only one in a thousand.
Daowu tried every possible means to increase that one in a thousand probability to one hundred percent.
He frantically gathered Authority of God and amassed a vast amount of resources from the old world.
Now, all he lacks is a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul to connect all of this.
Right now, Daowu is indeed being pushed to the brink by the Huaxia Heavenly Palace, which is why he has resorted to desperate measures, releasing a large amount of Authority of God in an attempt to regroup resources.
This resource includes "people".
All those Star Wielders attach themselves to the Lost Space Society will become the nourishment that constitutes "humanity".
Daowu's move caught the Huaxia Heavenly Palace completely off guard.
But Li Yang was right. Daowu truly panicked and desperate; otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths!
Another urgent report arrived. Marquis of Wind Pavilion frowned and said to Li Yang, "Daowu... has sent you an Authority of God."
There was a deathly silence at the conference table.
Li Yang wasn't surprised. She sneered, "He's just too eager to get my Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul."
Marquis of Wind Pavilion's eyelashes trembled slightly as he glanced at Si Kui.
Si Kui said, "Tell Daowu to complete the Heaven and Earth Contract at the Greedy Wolf Transit Point in three days."
Everyone present tensed up.
By unleashing all of Dao's Authority of God, wasn't Daowu also forcing Li Yang to complete the Heaven and Earth Contract as soon as possible?
Once the Authority of God is fully grasped by the Ninth-Grade Supreme of the Lost Space Society, even if the Huaxia Heavenly Palace gathers more power, it will still face a terrifying and formidable enemy.
At that point, the outcome will be hard to predict.
Aside from Grandmasters of the Nature Department Master Realm, who else dares to confront the Divine Venerable directly!
This will undoubtedly cause a significant drop in the morale of the Huaxia Alliance.
Si Kui walked out of the conference room and said to Li Yang, "Come with me."
Upon hearing Si Kui's words, a terrible thought arose in Li Yang's mind.
She hadn't even considered this possibility before, but now...
Lianlian... Teacher... They started from the very beginning, from the very beginning...
Li Yang's steps faltered. She hurried to catch up with Si Kui, unable to resist grabbing her forearm, and said, "Teacher..."
Si Kui led her to a small meditation room inside the Nature Pavilion.
She lowered her eyes to look at Li Yang and said the exact same words as Lianxin: "Your Heaven and Earth Contract with Daowu only gave him a Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul."
"And I also possess the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul of the Divine Venerable Realm."
Li Yang felt the piercing pain again, and she quickly shook her head, saying, "No... no..."
Lianxin, standing nearby, spoke up, "Master, leave it to me, I..."
Si Kui stared at him intently and said, "I knew you had this idea when I saw you break the Symbiotic Contract."
"However, you wield the Authority of Space. If Daowu were to take it, it would strengthen his power. But my Authority of Envy is of a much lower rank. Even if he were to take it, it would not be a great loss."
Lianxin said, "Master, I'm not good at fighting, so you should..."
"We cannot return the Authority of Space to Daowu," Si Kui said. "As for combat, you can provide excellent support to Li Yang."
The two of them were discussing calmly, while Li Yang was like someone in a turbulent sea, being pounded by huge waves and feeling dizzy and disoriented.
She gritted her teeth and said, "No, no."
Si Kui looked at her, her voice calm and collected. "This is the best arrangement; it preserves the Nature Department while also killing Daowu."
She paused, looked into Li Yang's eyes, and said gently, "Besides, I believe you."
Therefore, she willingly gave up her life.
She believed that Li Yang could defeat Daowu; she believed that Li Yang could solve everything!
Li Yang felt a stinging pain in her eyes, and tears welled up in her eyes. She shook her head and said, "No, teacher, you will die, but I won't... I Human Emperor Fortune Spirit, even if I lose my Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul, I can... I will definitely live!"
She looked up at Si Kui and said, "Teacher, shall we stick to our previous plan? I'll hand over the Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul first, and then you and my aunt can take it back for me... Then, we'll all..."
Si Kui wiped away the tears in her eyes and slowly said, "But you can't advance to the Divine Venerable Realm, right?"
Chapter 248
Li Yang froze on the spot. "Master..."
Si Kui continued, "You have already advanced to the Ninth-Grade Supreme, so your Fortune Spirit must have undergone a significant change... Could you tell me what it is like?"
How could Li Yang not understand?
Her master was her grandmaster's most beloved disciple.
The grandmaster was the successor of the previous Human Emperor Fortune Spirit, but she never managed to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm before her death.
Given Si Kui's personality, how could she possibly not bother to find out the details?
Therefore, she already knew that Li Yang would not be able to advance to the Divine Venerable Realm;
Therefore, after learning about the Heaven and Earth Contract signed between Li Yang and Daowu, she decided to use her Myriad Phenomena Origin Soul to fulfill this contract.
Li Yang pointed in the void, meticulously outlining the simple yet complex blueprint of "heaven, earth, and man" that she saw.
Even the Power of Nature surging within were clearly depicted by Li Yang.
"Heaven" symbolizes Power of Abstraction, "Earth" symbolizes Power of Elements, and "Man"... encompasses the Power of Emotions, including the seven emotions and six desires.
Si Kui stared for a long time before finally uttering with a sigh, "This is... the power that gods should wield."
Li Yang said anxiously, "Teacher, let me try first. What if I can advance to the Divine Venerable Realm!"
Si Kui continued to stare at the three characters: Heaven, Earth, and Man. She slowly said, "Master used to tell us that the current Divine Venerable are not gods... At the time, I only thought it was because Master was too powerful, killing Divine Venerable with the body of Ninth Grade mortal, so I didn't consider them gods. But now..."
Si Kui understood; she was simply stating an objective fact.
Only after seeing this magnificent blueprint can one understand how unattainable "God" truly is.
How dare someone who only possesses the Authority of God presume to call themselves Divine Venerable?
But...
A rich Power of Nature swirled around Si Kui's fingertips. What was originally a green stream now had a faint purple ripple, which came from the ripples of Authority of Envy.
Si Kui: "Fortunately, when you signed the Heaven and Earth Contract with Daowu, you didn't know what the true Divine Venerable Realm was, otherwise you would have been destined to break the Heaven and Earth Contract."
Li Yang was still unwilling to give up. She said, "That's right, the agreement I made with Daowu is that as long as I seize the Authority of God, I will reach the Divine Venerable Realm! The Laws of Heaven and Earth also recognize this, so as long as I can contain the Authority of God..."
