Chapter 512: Chapter 453: Make Way, I’m Here to Take the Seat! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!)
In the Heavenly Realm.
Divine Light vast and boundless, palaces lofty, the dazzling golden Divine Light illuminating all directions, a scene of auspicious ease and beauty.
"I really didn’t expect it!"
"Soni has actually become the God of Karmic Fruit!"
"This puts my mind at ease!"
Kashigyakya showed a smile, he patted his chest, taking a long sigh of relief.
He turned his head, looking towards Indra.
"Teacher!"
"Look at how incredible Soni is, he has already won my father’s approval, I believe he is now a mature Deva!"
"I’ve called him over!"
"It’s the perfect opportunity for him to succeed as Heavenly Emperor!"
Kashigyakya opened his mouth, his expression cheerful, his brow animated with excitement, revealing a smile of relief.
Indra blinked.
He looked around thoughtfully.
"Hmm!"
"It does seem to work!"
Indra shook his head, murmuring softly to himself.
Soni’s strength was still formidable, and now with the power of the Evil Eye, he should be able to protect the Devas.
Hearing this, the Devas exchanged glances.
They were taken aback listening to the conversation between Indra and Kashigyakya.
"Soni!"
"Kashigyakya actually wants to give up the Heavenly Emperor’s Throne, choosing between me and Soni!"
Sun God Surya exclaimed in utter surprise.
At that moment, he widened his eyes, his pupils filled with astonishment, even somewhat unexpected, his radiance flickering with his mood.
"You two!"
Fire God Agni muttered to himself.
He cast a sidelong glance at Surya, also quite taken aback.
"Why not me!"
"My strength is not weak either!"
Wind God Vayu muttered.
As he spoke, he clenched his fists, colossal power surging from his arms, muscles rippling like the Naga King, like a fierce wind roaring, emanating a tremendous presence.
Water God Varuna also shook his head.
Why should it be Soni!
"Soni is Surya’s son; how can we let a son stand above his father’s head!"
"This does not fit with Ridha! With the Righteous Law!"
Water God Varuna stated in a grave tone.
Sun God Surya’s expression turned solemn.
"Varuna is right!"
"I cannot be defeated by my own son!"
Surya thought to himself.
The Devas looked at each other, their faces showing discontent.
Yah! Yah! Yah!
Suddenly, the piercing cries of crows echoed all around.
The Deities looked up.
From the far skies, amidst the radiant golden light, a dark mass of crows descended upon them.
Like a cloud of darkness, they flapped their wings, shedding countless black feathers that obscured the golden radiance, darkening the sky with their presence.
Yah yah yah!
Amidst the crow calls, Soni descended from the heavens in an instant, landing before the eyes of the Deities.
"I have arrived!"
Soni bellowed.
His figure tall and imposing, head held high with pride, he strode forward like a majestic peacock, confidently approaching the Devas.
"Soni!"
Indra’s face bore a smile.
His eyes flickered as he sized up Soni, now the God of Karmic Fruit.
The current Soni exuded an aura that pierced the heavens, radiating immense power, seemingly invincible.
Excellent!
Truly excellent!
"Soni!"
"Congratulations on suppressing the curse!"
"There is something I need to tell you on this summoning!"
Indra spoke with a light chuckle.
"What is it?"
Soni tilted his head, full of curiosity.
At this moment, Indra did not speak but merely revealed a faint smile.
"It’s of great importance!"
"Let us first enter the Divine Temple, where we have assembled the Devas to discuss!"
Indra declared solemnly.
As his voice fell, he abruptly raised his hand.
The Divine Conch, Devadatta, immediately appeared in his grasp.
He stepped forward, his stance firm, standing tall, lifting his head with a far-reaching gaze, his right hand holding the Divine Conch to his lips, and he began to play it instantly.
Woo woo woo~
The blurry light and shadows, the dreamy figure, the melodious sound of the Conch Shell reverberated throughout.
The selection of the Heavenly Emperor is a very important matter; we can’t just directly speak about it here.
...
Heavenly Emperor’s Temple.
Many Devas were coming one after another.
Indra slightly raised his head and glanced at the glimmering Heavenly Emperor’s Throne above.
The next moment, he turned his head to look at Kashigyakya, lifted his hand to gently pat his disciple’s shoulder, and motioned for Kashigyakya to step forward.
But Kashigyakya stopped in his tracks.
At that moment, the two stood below the high platform, exchanging glances.
"Teacher!"
"You should sit!"
Kashigyakya said.
He looked at Indra very seriously, his hands respectfully joined together in salutation.
"You are my teacher, and I am your student. I should respect you, for that is the Righteous Law!"
"You should take the seat!"
Kashigyakya said.
Indra stole a glance at the throne and couldn’t help but laugh.
What a joke!
He had already relinquished that throne; how could he continue to sit there?
And now Kashigyakya was actually talking to him about the Righteous Law!
"The Righteous Law is not like that!"
"Respecting the teacher and valuing the way is very important, but you must also have a correct understanding of your own position!"
Indra said.
"Teacher!"
"You should take the seat, you were also the Heavenly Emperor before me!"
Kashigyakya joined his hands together, his face expressing a plea.
"Indra, my brother!"
"You are the most supreme, the Heavenly Emperor! I believe in your judgment going forward!"
"It’s your turn to ascend!"
Sun God Surya said.
"Exactly!"
Fire God Agni also nodded vigorously, strongly agreeing with Surya’s words.
"Praise be to Indra!"
Wind God Vayu directly raised his arms high, cheering loudly.
Water God Varuna also joined in the cheering.
"Praise be to Indra!"
"Praise be to Heavenly Emperor Indra!"
"Praise be to Indra!"
...
At this very moment, a wave of cheers and praises resounded in all directions, echoing continuously within the Divine Temple.
"Tsk..."
Indra clicked his tongue lightly.
He blinked and looked around at the many Devas below him.
This was like putting him on a pedestal!
These brothers were really setting a trap!
In the next moment, Indra turned around to face Kashigyakya and said.
"Then let’s not sit!"
"Let’s leave this position for the person who will take over, and let’s stand on both sides of the throne!"
Indra said.
Upon hearing this, the gods were suddenly startled.
Kashigyakya’s eyes flickered slightly.
He looked straight at his teacher, then turned to gaze at the throne, his eyebrows knitted tightly for a moment before suddenly relaxing as if he had an epiphany.
"I understand now!"
"Teacher, you mean inheritance; we guard on both sides of the throne, passing on this power and dignity."
"Even if we may not succeed!"
"This throne will carry the wishes we guard and continue the legacy!"
Kashigyakya said, very excitedly.
At this moment, it was as if he grasped some concept, a kind of spirit, his voice ringing with strength and increasingly filled with vigor.
Indra watched this scene with wide eyes, full of surprise.
What on earth was this guy talking about?
The Heavenly Emperor endures eternally, and the throne perpetuates, right?
Wind God Vayu, Water God Varuna, Fire God Agni, and Sun God Surya exchanged glances.
They had all understood what Indra meant.
How come they couldn’t understand what Kashigyakya was saying?!
Strange!
The gods exchanged looks, and seeing Indra and Kashigyakya standing above, they shook their heads and found their respective places, ready to sit down.
Soon, the seats below the platform were mostly filled, leaving only one throne nearest to the platform vacant.
That position was usually Surya’s!
As a Deva whose status was second only to the Heavenly Emperor, it was only natural for him to sit there.
Surya held his head high with pride.
He slightly lifted his arms to adjust the Holy Belt that draped down and was just about to take his seat.
Then a proud voice suddenly burst forth, like thunder echoing in Surya’s ears.
"Wait!!!"
