Chapter 644: Chapter 519: Unequal Distribution of Property, Prepare for War!
"Narayana’s method is indeed feasible!"
"However, you’ll need to leave incarnations and stories in each of the four eras from the Era of Perfection to the Kali Yuga, and link them all together."
"It’s still challenging!"
Indra pondered deeply.
For Liberators, they were themselves the most renowned figures, perhaps as tigers among gods or leaders among Asuras.
In every era where they became Liberators, there were almost always possibilities for them to manifest incarnations.
But the Era of Perfection, the division into three, two, and the Kali Yuga together make up one "Yuga."
To achieve the Union of Brahman and Atman, incarnations must be nurtured in each of the four eras within a "Yuga." If it is not accomplished by the next "Yuga," completion won’t be possible; the process will have to restart fresh in the new "Yuga."
Wait!
Suddenly, a thought struck Indra.
"Since Narayana’s method involves allowing his own manifestation to permeate through four eras and leave behind incarnations in each of them."
"Then, in these four eras, he completely dominates the Three Realms, controlling all beings and manipulating gods and Asuras."
"His manifestation is essentially the world’s manifestation."
This thought emerged in Indra’s heart.
In a moment, Indra thought of those Liberators in the Sea of Suffering.
Liberators are the eternal Primordial Men who are naturally the protagonists of this cosmic drama, albeit competing for just one position.
Thus, having complete control over the world and holding everything in one’s grasp would definitively secure one’s place.
There is never a shortage of wisdom in the world!
What he could think of, others surely could too, and certainly, other Liberators had acted upon such thoughts.
And the power of these Liberators was all too potent.
Once a battle commenced, the world was bound to suffer heavily, perhaps even heading straight for destruction.
"That group of Liberators, trapped in the Sea of Suffering, confined by the Righteous Law, aren’t able to break free. Only appearing during the Kali Yuga probably wasn’t the original rule!"
Indra thought so.
He then clasped his hands and looked towards Vishnu.
"Narayana!"
"Those other Liberators, have they all battled each other before?"
Indra asked.
Vishnu’s face revealed a slight smile, his lotus eyes bright and twinkling, quietly observing Indra like the North Star.
Finally, he shook his head gently.
"These invincible victors, trapped by their Karmic Retribution, blinded by greed, neglected sentient beings, and thus sank into the Sea of Suffering."
Vishnu said.
Hmm!
Indra too nodded his head.
These beings were overly greedy, priding themselves on possessing eternal invincible power. However, invincible as you may be, there will always be someone even more so.
In other words, there is always someone more invincible; no one is the most invincible.
...
Elsewhere, in the midst of the starry sea.
Three streaks of light descended like meteors, and the vast Golden City spun, floating amidst the starry sea, shimmering with a dazzling glow.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Lianmu, Xingmu, and Dian Huan descended into this Golden City.
Their gazes were deep.
They looked at each other, each able to read the depth in the others’ eyes.
"The foolish Asura dying by his own Blessings, such a death is a complete disgrace to us Asuras."
Dian Huan exclaimed angrily.
Xingmu’s expression was also deep.
"Now that the Asura is dead, and the power of Mahadeva cannot be resisted, what should we do?"
Xingmu shook his head, suddenly at a loss, turning to his elder brother.
Lianmu’s gaze deepened.
Suddenly, he raised his right hand, signaling his brothers to stay calm, then spoke, "Even Mahadeva can only destroy us when the Triple City aligns in a straight line."
"Before that, the Triple City is invincible!"
"Our mentor is also leading the Priests, gaining power!"
Lianmu encouraged his brothers.
Their Resurrection Pond in the center of the Triple City, its Blessing could only resurrect Asuras who died by weapons.
The Asura couldn’t be resurrected!
Hearing this, Dian Huan clenched his teeth, again exclaiming angrily: "Damn it, our mentor’s Power of Sacrifice, a big portion was devoted to that Asura."
This statement also ignited Xingmu’s fury; his muscular arms tightened, and countless veins, as fierce as raging beasts, bulged from his slightly dark skin.
"Detestable, the foolish Asura!"
Xingmu’s voice was heavy.
Shoosh!
In the midst of their subdued fury, a light beam descended from the sky once more, dispersing into the voice of Nijas.
"Nijas!"
Lianmu’s gaze sharpened.
In an instant, he saw Nijas cradling a charred body, lifeless, its soul having returned to the cycle of reincarnation.
"Dukudha!"
Lianmu murmured in surprise.
From this charred body, distinctly the aura of Dukudha emanated.
"Yes!"
"My brother is dead, and I seek vengeance for him!"
Nijas clenched his fist, his voice cold.
As he spoke, his gaze shifted, directing starlike lights from his chest towards Lianmu.
"This is the Power of Sacrifice acquired from the Devas!"
"Along with a Divine Artifact!"
Nijas said.
Having spoken, he slightly bowed his head, looking at the charred body in his arms, "Next, I must go find Dukudha, and together hold a cremation for my elder brother!"
There were not only two brothers.
Besides Dukudha, there was another, currently in the Mortal World.
Whoosh!
Nijas swiftly transformed into a column of light, soaring into the sky, vanishing from this Golden City.
At that moment, Lianmu also grabbed the golden urn and the staff.
His gaze sparkled like stars.
"We have the Power of Sacrifice now!"
Lianmu exclaimed joyously.
...
Shoosh!
Uttarakuru.
On the ground, a vast wilderness stretched out, the wild grass swaying with the windangled in a rustling sound.
Nijas flew for a long time, eventually descending upon a great mountain.
Atop this great mountain, Asura, clad in golden armor and wearing golden bracelets, looked incredibly lavish.
He was standing in front of a beautiful Asura girl.
"Jijica, my daughter!"
"Why have you brought the child back to your maternal home? Has your husband driven you away?"
Asura questioned.
The beautiful girl, Jijica, with tears in her eyes, was wiping away her tears; her eyes were red with anger.
"Not at all!"
"I have not been driven away by him, but I am dissatisfied with his decision!"
"He wants to divide his wealth and land among his other son, Kubera, while clearly, this wealth should be given to my son, Ravana."
Jijica said angrily, tears filling her eyes.
Kubera was the son of Buluo Sidiye. In the past, Kubera went into rigorous ascetic practices, distancing himself from family and angering his father, Buluo Sidiye.
Thus, Buluo Sidiye used his power to create another angry version of himself—Ravana.
However, Kubera still regarded Ravana as his father.
But now Ravana was reconciling with Kubera and even wanted to pass his wealth to him.
This was something she absolutely could not accept!
Hearing his daughter’s explanation, Asura frowned and instantly understood everything.
He could not help but snort coldly.
"How dreadful!"
"They dare to insult my daughter like this!"
Asura clenched his fists, furious.
He gritted his teeth, turned to his daughter Jijica, and said, "Let’s go, we will confront him!"
Suddenly, a streak of light descended sharply from the sky.
Asura abruptly looked up and immediately saw the figure who had arrived.
It was his brother—Nijas.
"Nijas?"
Asura tilted his head, frowning, full of confusion.
Then his gaze shifted to Nijas’s arms, feeling the familiar aura, and immediately, a look of astonishment appeared.
"Dukudha! Dead?"
"Yes!"
"Who killed him!"
"It was the Devas!"
In just a few sentences, Asura widened his eyes, hurried forward, pushing his daughter’s concerns to the back of his mind.
"How infuriating!"
"I will definitely avenge my brother!"
Asura clenched his fists tightly; his angry voice echoed all around, reverberating over the vast plains.
Hearing this, Nijas also took a deep breath.
"My older brother, if you are seeking revenge, then go to the triple city and seek out Lianmu—his city is indestructible, and he can surely defeat the Devas."
Nijas said.
"What about you?"
Asura asked.
"I will undergo rigorous self-discipline!" Nijas’s voice was heavy, his mind already made up.
...
Thunder rumbled!
The Golden City spiraled in the starry sky, with the lights of the stars adorning it, shining down on the many Sacrificers, their murmurings of praise resounding endlessly, like the unshakeable center of the world.
In the Silver City lived many exceptional humans, all strong and brave warriors.
The Black Iron City hovered above the Earth.
Countless Asuras had already prepared their weapons, dazzling and gleaming with cold light.
The three Eternal Cities drifted in the air.
Ultimately, Black Iron City and Silver City slowly moved, traversing the space, gathering in the starry sky, appearing together amidst the stars.
Lianmu, Xingmu, and Dian Huan piloted the three cities, constantly rotating.
A great battle was imminent!
"I am ready!"
Lianmu declared solemnly.
He looked toward the Heavenly Realm above, his eyes flashing with a dark, captivating Divine Light, as if to devour the Heavenly Realm.
"To the ancient Brahma!"
Lianmu brought his hands together, murmuring.
Using the power of the Brahman Heavenly Treasure, a light sphere had already formed between his hands.
The next moment, an arrow formed within the golden light, emitting a radiance so powerful it was unmatched, suddenly sparking above the Golden City and shooting straight towards the Heavenly Realm.
Boom!!!
The dazzling light shot straight into the sky, instantly piercing the void, forging a path.
The Brahman Heavenly Treasure was unstoppable!
Before it even truly arrived at the Heavenly Realm, the realm itself was already in chaos.
Swoosh!
The golden light in the Heavenly Realm flickered, temples shook, and Gandharvas continuously fell!
The returning Devas stood in the temples, all showing shock, unsteady on their feet, shaking as they flew out of the temples, not even understanding what was happening.
Wind God Vayu looked around at the trembling temples, sensing slightly.
Instantly, he knew what had happened.
"Not good!"
"The Heavenly Realm has been attacked, it’s the triple city!"
Wind God Vayu exclaimed.
Hearing him, the Devas were immediately startled.
These Asuras had fled from Kailash and immediately launched an attack; they were utterly arrogant and cunning.
"What exactly do they want to do!"
Sun God Surya said.
As he spoke, the shaking in the Heavenly Realm grew more violent, a dazzling golden light also flashed from the east, lighting up the entire Heavenly Realm clearly.
The gods abruptly looked up, their eyes instantly sharp.
Within this brilliant golden light, a beautiful lotus flower was blooming, petal by petal unfolding, as if nurturing life, filled with vibrant growth and exquisite beauty.
Swoosh!
One golden petal after another of this lotus flower bloomed.
Each petal brought endless Divine Light, illuminating all directions, enveloping the entire Heavenly Realm in light.
"Brahman Heavenly Treasure!"
The gods’ pupils dilated further, exclaiming.
But in that instant, a large golden arm entered their view, breaking through the gold and grasping the budding lotus flower.
Fingers closed, squeezing the blooming petals back into a bud.
A tall figure blocked the golden light, leaving only a deep and indistinct silhouette.
"Warriors of the Heavenly Realm!"
"Prepare for battle!"
