Chapter 1649 Great Power
Sitting inside a pavilion near the lake, Yun Lintian leisurely sipped tea while feeding snacks to Qingqing and Linlin. His life was going so well these days.
In the past week, he spent most of his time "reminiscing" with his women from day to night without taking any breaks. The long-pent-up emotions had been completely vented.
"What will you be discussing at the upcoming conference?" Han Bingling asked.
"I want to give everyone a general understanding of the Divine Realm and let them decide whether they want to go up." Yun Lintian answered. "We can't keep them locked up here forever, right? At least, it's better to let them know beforehand."
Han Bingling nodded gently and asked further. "Have you ever met anyone from our world?"
Yun Lintian shook his head. "The Divine Realm is incredibly vast, and I haven't had the opportunity to visit many places. There is a very slim chance of me meeting them. Besides, I don't even know what they look like."
In fact, Yun Lintian wanted to find the Longevity Monarch, but he simply had no time to care about it.
"It seems that they are not doing well." Shen Liqiu curled her lips.
"Honestly, if I hadn't prepared my own resources before going there, I would have struggled as well." Yun Lintian put the teacup down and said. "When everyone arrives there later, all of you will be at the bottom of the food chain. It is extremely difficult to gain a foothold there. So, I'm not surprised if those people are not doing well."
"Moreover, people like us from the lower realm are hardly comparable to the natives there. They have lived there since birth, bathing in the abundant divine energy from the start. As long as they have some talent and resources, their strength will grow rapidly."
He paused briefly and then continued. "If possible, I would like to open this place and let others come in. Training here is much better than going to the Divine Realm."
Han Bingling and Shen Liqiu fell into silence.
Yun Lintian looked at them and continued speaking. "At first, I had planned to bring everyone to the Moon God Realm, but I have changed my mind now. I am currently being targeted from all directions, and it is too risky to involve all of you. Wait until I can open the gate first, and then I will let everyone go."
"It should be like that." Hongyue suddenly flew over and landed in the pavilion. She looked at Yun Lintian and said. "Come with me."
Yun Lintian was slightly confused but still followed Hongyue out. The two of them quickly headed to the Tree of Life in the far distance.
"My king." When they landed, Lauya immediately appeared.
Madam Leisure was also present.
Yun Lintian smiled and said. "It's been a while."
Hongyue looked at her and said. "Tell him."
Lauya nodded gently and asked. "My king, have you encountered the World Tree?"
"The World Tree?" Yun Lintian was puzzled. "I don't think so."
"Really?" Hongyue asked in doubt. "Think about it again. It should be a sprout or a branch."
Yun Lintian frowned slightly as he thought about the peculiar sprout inside Ning Yue's body. "There is a small sprout inside Ning Yue's body. Is it the World Tree?"
"Without a doubt," Hongyue said. "You should bring her here."
"What's going on? And what is the World Tree?" Yun Lintian asked curiously.
Hongyue proceeded to tell Yun Lintian about the World Tree and how Yao Xi had planted it in her backyard, only for it to go missing later.
Yun Lintian digested the information and said. "Is it possible that Ning Yue's parents are related to Senior Yao?"
"It is difficult to tell unless we see Ning Yue." Madam Leisure said.
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. "So, there is nothing we can do at the moment."
"The emergence of the World Tree can be a sign of something," Lauya spoke. "It can be interpreted as the start of a new era. I believe that something big is about to occur soon."
Yun Lintian frowned deeply. "Senior Yue said I have approximately a hundred years or less before the new calamity arrives."
Hongyue furrowed her brow and asked. "Did she tell you anything else about it?"
Yun Lintian looked at her and said. "She said that the Moon God Realm will have three God Emperors, you, Chuntao, and Xinyao. At the same time, the laws of the Divine Realm will cease to exist, giving rise to a succession of god emperors."
"Well, she also said that I was born to break all the rules in the universe. I don't quite understand this part... Why do I feel like everything is revolving around me?"
Although Yun Lintian was aware of the great power he held, he did not consider himself to be the center of everything. He alone couldn't possibly change the destiny of the entire Divine Realm. Even the Beyond Heaven King couldn't do it.
"Because you hold great power in your hand." Madam Leisure suddenly spoke. Her gaze was deep as she looked at Yun Lintian. "I have been reading novels recently. You are similar to the protagonists in those novels. The story naturally revolves around you."
Yun Lintian opened his mouth but couldn't utter a single word. He couldn't deny that he was nothing like those protagonists because it was obvious that he was.
"Even if you are not the protagonist in this story, you play a significant role in it." Madam Leisure said further. "Your presence will have an impact on the story."
Yun Lintian remained silent, his brows tightly knitted together. To his understanding, the Beyond Heaven King clearly left his power behind to fight the Primordial God Tribe... Could there be something more beyond that?
"You don't have to think about it much. All you need to do is increase your strength as much as possible before the enemy returns." Hongyue looked at him and said.
Yun Lintian sighed and said. "I understand. Although I don't actually care about the reason behind it, I can't ignore it. I've always wondered why the Beyond Heaven King chose me to inherit his power."
He looked at everyone and said. "My sole purpose in striving forward is to protect everyone around me. Whatever comes next doesn't matter to me. At worst, I will just stay here forever."
Hongyue, Lauya, and Madam Leisure glanced at each other but said nothing. They could understand Yun Lintian's mood. To shoulder such a duty was not an easy task.
"I will practice now." Yun Lintian said, and his figure disappeared from the place under everyone's complicated gaze…
