Chapter 576 Heaven Will Emperor

Xi Shangyan"s Mansion:

She also stood before an array and reported the events that occurred in today"s events.

"This is all that happened, patriarch."

Then, for a few seconds, there was no response from the other end.

"Patriarch, you don"t have to worry. I will do my best to get the scripture for the ruler; I won"t disappoint the effort of the clan."

Xi Shangyan knew the importance of this mission simply by the selection process. One of the rulers held a large-scale compet.i.tion with all the factions underneath her.

And Xi Shangyan was the final winner, an act that brought great honor to the Celestial Clan as they had the opportunity to display their loyalties to the ruler.

"You don"t need to care about the mission," said the Celestial Patriarch after half a minute of silence.

"What do you mean?"

"Our clan has decided to revolt against the ruler. We will hide inside the Source Qi s.p.a.ce and use some of our foundations to prevent her from finding us."

"What? Patriarch, what do you mean by this?"

"Everyone knows a new era is coming, and it"s time for people to pick a side. And the Celestial clan has chosen the opposite of the rulers."

Xi Shangyan did not know what to do as this news was too great for her; she thought she came here to make her clan proud and increase their status in the upper dimension. But now, things seemed to be getting out of control.

"What about me?" She hurriedly asked, thinking about something horrible.

"You don"t need to worry; the clan did not abandon you."

Xi Shangyan sighed in relief. "So, why am I in the lower dimension?"

"A tremendous amount of destiny and Luck is about to gather in the Lower Dimension with the upcoming new era of the Myriad Emperor World. Many believe the person who started this era will lead the changing age of the upper dimension–or, at the very least, play an essential role.

"Your mission is to use that destiny to your advantage. You can try to steal the destiny from that destined person, become that destined individual, become their underling, cooperate with them, or whatever you desire. Use your judgment to determine the best course of action.

"What matter is for the Celestial Clan to have their hands on the new era; the Luck gathered from his event would ensure our prosperity."

Xi Shangyan caressed her temples as she tried to process all the information she had received. She suddenly remembered the grey hair player from the Myriad Emperor World. Somehow, she felt he would play a vital role in this upcoming chaos.

"I know this is a lot to process so suddenly, but we could not tell you anything before you arrived in the Lower Dimension."

"I won"t blame you, patriarch. I know you"re doing this for the clan"s revival."

"I"m glad you understand. I don"t have much time, as such, I will be quick. You must prove the Dao in the Lower Dimension, which means you must re-start cultivating. Your s.p.a.ce ring includes many resources to help you, including a Time Choas Treasure to ensure you have enough time to catch up.

"You can choose whether to prove the Dao in the Myriad Emperor World. The Seven Rulers have sent people to infiltrate there to prove the Dao in this generation and delay the arrival of the new generation."

"Delay?"

"They cannot stop the arrival of the new era. But, they can infinitely delay it to prolong their reign or better prepare for a high position in the new upcoming era."

"I see."

"I know this is a lot, so I won"t say much more. One last thing, do not become a Heaven Will Emperor. Although it should be impossible to do so in the Lower Dimension, anything is possible in the upcoming changes."

Xi Shangyan nodded her head. Even if the patriarch did not say anything, she would not do so. Since she was young, the clan elders have always warned her about becoming a Heaven Will Emperor because it is an unorthodox method that is nothing but shortcuts.

Heaven Will Emperors created something called Dao Trees, allowing them to absorb more than one Heaven Will. The Dao Tree allowed them to rapidly reach higher realms of cultivation and serve as a way to control the Grand Dao Source.

However, the downside is that a Heaven Will Emperor will fall in cultivation realms once someone destroys the Dao Tree. Meanwhile, Dao Emperors have to comprehend the Grand Dao Source slowly.

Xi Shangyan would never become a Heaven Will Emperor for many reasons. For example, Heaven Will Emperors cannot become Everlasting Empyreans or Boundless Paragons.

Heaven Will Empyreans do not have the natural ability of Dao Empyreans to create life. Heaven Will Paragons do not need Paragon Souls to reach that realm, making them drastically weaker.

The only advantage of Heaven Will Emperors is the rapid cultivation and the ability to sacrifice their Heaven Wills for a drastic increase in battle prowess. And even then, they only used this technique to be on par with Dao Emperors.

"Alright, I"ve got to go," said the Celestial Patriarch. "It will take a little time for the information of our betrayal to be sent to the lower dimension because of the recent changes."

"Recent changes?"

"There is no time for that. Just know that access to the Lower Dimension has become even harder. Always watch your back no matter which Heaven Will World you decide to prove the Dao; the rulers definitely send some spies to cause chaos in the lower dimension."

.

After saying that, the patriarch ended the conversation. Xi Shangyan suddenly felt very lonely; it was the first time she did not have her clan as backing. Nevertheless, she quickly reigned in her emotions to decide her next step.

The best course of action would be to run away if the other upper-seeded players decided to eliminate her, the traitor. However, the patriarch told her the information wouldn"t reach the trial for some time.

Time she could use to get her hands on the Deceiving Heaven Longevity Art and give her some advantage in the upcoming chaos.

"Let"s wait and see," she muttered before resting.

Xiao Tiandi"s Mansion:

"You have to do your best," said a beautiful female voice.

"Yes, master," replied Xiao Tiandi with his usual listlessness.

"This is not the time to have your usual uncaring att.i.tude. The rulers might give you a chance if you can bring back the scripture and the necessary information."

"Would they, really? Or would they dispose of me after I"m no longer useful?"

"Don"t be so pessimistic. If they wanted to deal with you, they would have done so long ago."

Xiao Tiandi sneered but did not rebuke.

"This might be the only chance you have."

"You and I both know this is not true."

"Maybe previously, but things are changing. The rulers are in desperate need of allies.

"Yes, allies that are not a threat to them."

"Enough!" roared the female voice. "Your mindset is the reason you"re in the current state. An opportunity is given to you, but you don"t even want to try.

"Do the mission, bring back the scripture. Otherwise, I will disown and kick you out of the sect; this is your last chance." The female voice then ended the communication.

Xiao Tiandi shrugged his shoulder; this was not the first time his master threatened to disown him. And this was not the first time he had disappointed her. Ultimately, she loved and doted on him too much to do it.

So, he yawned before going to bed; he told his servant not to wake up until the day the compet.i.tion began as he prepared to sleep for a few days straight.

Outside of s.h.i.+ Ruolan"s Mansion:

Xu s.h.i.+ walked out with slight puzzlement. She did not expect the latter"s repayment to be her memories and information of all the Heaven Chosens of the Myriad Emperor World and favor she had to repay later.

Xu s.h.i.+ was prepared for the conditions to be even worse.

"Well, a favor is usually the hardest thing to repay," she thought. Although it appeared s.h.i.+ Ruolan did not ask for much, that was only on the surface.

"It does not matter. I"ve got the information I wanted. As long I become an Eternal Emperor, I should be able to revive Fan"er. All I have to do now is find a way to preserve his imprint."

Xu s.h.i.+ then became momentarily lost as she remembered her husband; memories of their happy times flashed across her mind.

"Fan"er, I will see you again."

Xu s.h.i.+ returned to her mansion, and as soon as she entered, someone appeared next to him: Daoist Everchanging.

"Why did you go see her?"

Xu s.h.i.+ frowned before explaining the situation, making Daoist Everchanging sigh out loud.

"Have you not noticed you are becoming too obsessed with reviving Lin Fan?"

"He"s my husband, the love of my life."

"Yes, but you should not let any obsession take over your mind."

"What"s wrong with obsession?"

"It"s a weakness that your enemy can exploit."

Xu s.h.i.+ quieted down as she knew this was true. "I won"t let it become my weakness."

Daoist Everchanging sighed again before disappearing; his blatant display of disappointment made Xu s.h.i.+ unhappy for the entire night.

Ao Tianyi"s Mansion:

"Huo Fenghuang from the Myriad Emperor World, right?" he asked over a tea table.

"That"s me."

"So, what brings you to see me?"
