The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1227 - 468: The Perpetual Ice Coffin, Fallen Primordial Spirit_2

At that time, the Heavenly Dao collapsed, yet it could not be rebuilt in time. Calamity upon calamity, it was impossible for any creature of the Nine Seas and Eight Mountains to survive. Would you truly wish to witness such a scene of complete extinction?"

"But... but what should we do?"

Little GuaGua, confused and mumbling, asked in a dreamy state.

From the other end, an Ancient Nether Deity that seemed to be the source of purity, replied calmly:

"The Heavenly Maiden cannot die. She possesses an immortal body; this is her absolute confidence that puts her on par with the current Heavenly Venerates."

"What you must do is to minimize the losses as much as possible. Only by preserving your strength and continuing to grow, will you have a future where you can break free from restraints and rebuild the order of the Heavenly Dao."

"But... that seems so far away..."

GuaGua said dejectedly, lowering its head:

"Heavenly Maiden has been so kind to us, yet we can only watch helplessly as She is bullied..."

"Elder Ancestor, can you tell me just how many ’Heavenly Punishment Sovereigns’ and ’Divine Punishment Spears’ are there among these bad Heavenly Venerates? I want to jot them all down in my little notebook and one day settle the score with each of them..."

"There are nine Heavenly Venerates in the current Heavenly Dao."

"However, not all of them are brutish types. A few are indifferent by nature and care little for power and authority."

The Ancient Deity of purity paused for a moment, sighing lightly:

"Such as those from Heavenly Punishment and those from Divine Punishment. They seem domineering, yet there is more to the story."

"The Nether Ancient and the Primordial Ancient, these two epochs of the Cosmic Era were too splendid."

"If not restrained, left to natural evolution by the laws of the universe, it’s possible that during the Ancient Era, those below Divine Enthronement would have perished, with no possibility of further nurturing."

"Restraining the higher gods is actually for the consideration of all beings."

"Compressing the path of ascension makes the ecosystem at the lower levels more abundant."

"Including the seals... or what you call Divinity, one lineage, three pieces. This is also a rule established after the Heavenly Dao of the Ancient Era, although it’s cruel, it is an effective measure..."

"Ah?"

The Ancient Divine of purity revealed many secrets in one breath, stunning GuaGua, who asked in a daze:

"So the bad Heavenly Venerates are actually doing good things, and we’re the ones being unreasonable?"

"Half and half."

The Ancient Divine of purity sighed deeply, and the crisp voice carried a hint of melancholy:

"From the perspective of all beings, they are correct."

"But there are indeed problems with this system. Those who have stayed in high positions for a long time have become narrow-minded and arrogant, much like a frog being boiled in warm water, poisonous to the common people."

"You talented individuals are the most unfortunate victims."

"In my opinion, the autocrats who wield absolute power are not fit to govern the ways of the common people, while those who shirk responsibility to enjoy immortality and high status, do not make any substantial contribution."

"They should either perish and nourish all the heavens."

"Or like us, the Ancient Nether Heavenly Venerates, return to the land of eternal silence, seeking the truth, completely transcending."

"In any case... it’s time for a new generation of Heavenly Venerates."

"The current Heavenly Dao is filled with dust and flaws, needing to be cleaned up as soon as possible."

"And with that, Little One, you and your Patron must try your best."

"The arrival and manifestation of a Heavenly Venerate are limited. She can only target the Goddess Ba who breaks the taboos—not easily targeting ordinary divinities and those below Divine Enthronement."

"You must survive, but I can’t help you too much. Concealing the will of heaven is the best I can do."

The illusory jade stone—slowly dissipates.

From then on, the voice of the Ancient Divine from the lineage of purity, completely vanished from the spiritual world.

Ye Hanjun paused slightly, while he soothed GuaGua’s head, calming its downcast spirits.

Meanwhile, he gazed at the shining red ring on his finger, his mind racing with new ideas.

The Ring of Deep Red... suddenly it could be used!

This was the lifesaving object given to all the members of the Hanba Clan and the two divine children after returning to the Solar Abyss, where the Wheel of Deep Red was recharged.

Heavenly Punishment Sovereign’s advent brought destructive laws that shrouded Earth God Mountain. Goddess Ba’s blue flames could only barely protect everyone, unable to open a transfer passage for them.

But now... it was possible!

Once the ring was fully activated, they could immediately return to the Solar Abyss!

The space there was still closed. Without the permission of the Deep Red, external creatures could not enter, and those inside could not leave.

Considering what the Ancient Divine of purity mentioned, the arrival and manifestation of a Heavenly Venerate must satisfy specific rules. With his dual authority to evade the surveillance of the Heavenly Dao and the remaining members of the Hanba Clan, there was a very high chance they could survive.

"No... wait a moment!"

Through telepathic communication, Mie Quan instantly learned of Ye Hanjun’s thoughts.

Yet he refused to flee immediately. Blood streamed from the third eye on his forehead as he responded in a deep voice:

"If what the Heavenly Punishment Sovereign said is true, the third piece of the Nether Divinity is in the Ancestor’s head. Once the Ancestor is sealed again, all three pieces of Nether Divinity will return to the control of the Heavenly Dao, and the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds will no longer birth a new Nether True God!"

"By then, without our Ancestor and no one of our clan achieving Divine Enthronement, not only will the Solar Abyss be unstable, but those envious and fearful enemies of our clan—will surely strike ruthlessly!"

"Mm, we must strive a bit more!"

Mu Yi’s opinion was surprisingly consistent, resolutely saying:

"The Ancestor must also be aware of this. She will not easily let the enemies’ plans succeed."

"On the basis that She has an immortal body, She will do everything possible to injure the enemy, find ways to deplete them, and then throw out the Bone God’s piece of Divinity for Mie Quan to refine..."

While discussing their plans, the physical body of Goddess Ba was pierced once again.

A total of four spears of lightning shot through Her hands and feet, nailing Her to the ground.

"True God of the Hanba Clan, why bother wasting your efforts."
