Chapter 205: The Awakening of Yanwang’s Truth
The Water Qilin stared at him blankly.
It was completely shocked by this face changing speed.
"Mm." Fu Young obediently responded.
Unlike before, when he would always cling to Xiao Shou and go together, this time he agreed and instead carried the Water Qilin as he quickly flew toward the crystal palace.
Xiao Shou watched Fu Young’s departing figure for a moment.
He felt a brief sense of something off as if something was not right, but he could not pinpoint it.
In the end, he could only shake his head helplessly and sit cross legged, guarding Gou Guangming and the others.
On the other side, after Fu Young entered the crystal palace while holding the Water Qilin, he looked at the fully crystalized interior.
He went deeper inside, then casually tossed the Water Qilin aside without the slightest concern.
"Speak," he said expressionlessly.
"What do I say?" The small body of the Water Qilin trembled slightly as it looked at Fu Young in confusion.
Fu Young curved his lips into a cold smile.
"Do you still need me to prompt you? Anything related to me, do not tell me you do not know."
As he spoke, a blue pattern flashed between his brows.
A vertical blood red eye appeared and beside the Water Qilin a blood red vortex instantly formed.
"Ah! Lord Yanwang, please spare me. I will tell everything, I will say everything. Please quickly put away your true form!"
The moment the blood red vortex appeared, one that even heavenly tribulation seemed unable to do anything about, the Water Qilin immediately reverted to its original form and screamed in terror.
Lord Yanwang? True form?
Fu Young was momentarily at a loss.
However, he also understood that he seemed to be about to touch upon something unfathomable, something like a deep abyss.
He realized his true existence might be involved.
Deep down, he resisted it.
He did not want to know about things unrelated to his current life.
And yet, he also understood that avoidance had no meaning.
Only by understanding everything could he avoid making mistakes.
He closed his third eye and said, "Speak."
Seeing the blood red vortex disappear, the Water Qilin finally let out a breath of relief.
Carefully, it returned to human form and began to speak in a low voice, explaining everything it knew.
It turned out that within the inheritance of the Qilin race, there was a natural seal.
No, more accurately, all divine races had such a seal within their bodies.
This seal could only be opened under specific conditions.
That condition was sensing the aura of Lord Yanwang.
And just now, it had sensed a faint trace of aura within Fu Young, which triggered the seal and activated its inheritance.
Through this inheritance, it learned some things related to Yanwang.
According to the inheritance, the world was originally created by the Great God Pangu who split heaven and earth and transformed into all things.
The ancient gods, dragons, phoenixes, qilin, and other divine beasts were born from this.
The so called world was originally an endless continent, with the sun, moon, and three hundred sixty five stars in the sky.
Time flowed like water.
That continent that was known as the Pangu World would undergo a great calamity every twelve billion years.
Dragon Phoenix Calamity, Witch Demon Struggle, and by the time of the Investiture of the Gods, even Saints had participated.
As a result, the entire Pangu Continent shattered, breaking apart into countless fragments that drifted into the void.
At that moment, the Purgatory Star, which had always hung beyond the Nine Heavens in silence without any communication with the outside world, suddenly emitted a vortex-like blood red glow.
The moment it appeared, it swallowed most of the divine races that had participated in the Investiture of the Gods war, completely erasing their existence.
At the same time, all divine races and divine beasts born since the beginning of the world heard a voice or rather perceived a will.
At the beginning of creation, Pangu split yin and yang.
The yang side gave life to all things in heaven and earth and became the Sun.
The yin side governed life and death and became the Yanwang.
However, the Great God Pangu had also considered that the world he created was not perfect. Thus, at the end, he assigned Yanwang the duty of judging the world he had created.
If Yanwang determined that Pangu’s world was wrong, it would carry out the duty of world destruction, swallowing everything in existence, and then become Pangu again to create a new world.
Along with this voice, the Purgatory Star hanging in the Nine Heavens suddenly fell.
During its descent, everything was devoured by that blood red vortex-shaped celestial body.
Even the Sun was swallowed halfway.
The gods and sages attempted to attack the Yanwang itself, but all attacks were swallowed without exception.
At that time, without needing Yanwang’s answer, everyone already understood what it intended to do.
Its judgment was that this world should be destroyed.
At this moment of crisis, the Sun detonated its own existence, splitting into billions of fragments that illuminated all broken pieces of the Pangu continent.
Its consciousness merged with the Dao.
After that, the earliest Sage beings of the Pangu world also merged with the Heavenly Dao.
They sealed away all Sages who had participated in the Investiture of the Gods war and caused the fragmentation of Pangu’s continent, and together they made a vow to Yanwang.
After merging with the Dao, they would become the Heavenly Dao itself, restraining the murderous nature of all beings and controlling the birth of worldly malice.
They asked Yanwang to give all life one more chance.
The Sage Nuwa also sacrificed herself to seal the void rift created by the collapse of Pangu’s continent, where earth, fire, wind, and water were flooding back.
Thus, through the sacrifices of the Sun Sovereign and the Sages, the Purgatory Star Sovereign agreed to the request and stopped the destruction of the world.
