Against the Gods

Che.”

Perhaps Shui Meiyin was trying to avoid this question she wasn’t willing to answer, but she looked as if she had suddenly recalled something as she stopped and held her hands up toward Yun Che.
A weak light faintly flashed from them before a floating black stone tablet appeared in front of her.

It was a square-shaped stone tablet that was three feet wide and as black as night.
A row of strange and profound-looking runes were inscribed on this tablet.

An indescribably mysterious aura that barely seemed to exist radiated from the tablet, and it caused Yun Che’s soul to violently shudder.

This feeling…

He reached out to touch the stone tablet, his fingers tracing the lines of those strange and bizarre runes.

These unique strokes, this strange and wondrous feeling…

The Divine Text of Absolute Beginning!?

Could this be…

Yun Che’s head whipped up violently to look at Shui Meiyin.
His eyes were filled with shock as he asked, “Was this something that the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor passed to you as well?”

“Yes, Senior Devil Emperor told me to pass it to you at the appropriate time,” Shui Meiyin replied.

Yun Che’s heart started to ripple agitatedly.

The Divine Text of Absolute Beginning.
The thing that the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor had passed to Shui Meiyin… was the fragment of the Ancestral Divine Art that she had owned!

The profound art that was also known as the World-Defying Heaven Manual in this current era!

In the Ancient Era, Heaven Punishing Divine Emperor Mo E set a trap for the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor because of this fragment of the World-Defying Heaven Manual.
That was the event that caused Jie Yuan to be banished from the Primal Chaos Dimension in the first place.

He had always assumed that this fragment had followed the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor back to the void beyond the Wall of Primal Chaos, but it turned out that she had passed this to Shui Meiyin as well.

Strange… Why didn’t she just hand it over to me? Why did she have to pass it to me through Shui Meiyin?

A suspicion flashed through his mind.

He stretched out a hand and grabbed hold of the stone tablet that was floating in the air… Once he combined this with the other two fragments he was holding, he would possess the unified World-Defying Heaven Manual, the whole Ancestral Divine Art.

No one had ever managed to complete it before! This was true even in the Era of Gods!

This was truly a historic moment! Something that had never happened in the entire history of the Primal Chaos!

As he suppressed the wildly-surging emotions in his heart, he voiced his suspicions to Shui Meiyin.
“When the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor handed it over to you, did she leave you any special instructions?”

Shui Meiyin paused for a moment before replying, “She said that she would rather that this thing had never come into her possession in the first place.”

Yun Che, “…”

He had not obtained the answer he desired, but the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor’s words contained a boundless sorrow and regret that no outsider could ever understand.

The law of nothingness that Yun Che had grasped had come from the two fragments of the World-Defying Heaven Manual he already possessed.

It was an extremely unique and vague enlightenment, because Yun Che didn’t even understand how he attained this enlightenment in the first place, nor did he know just how much of this law he truly understood.

Now that he had unified the World-Defying Heaven Manual, the completed Ancestral Divine Art might be able to help him delve into the deeper mysteries of the law of nothingness.

However, he could not read the Divine Text of Absolute Beginning.
The only person in the universe who could do so was Xiao Lingxi.

Unfortunately for him, he wasn’t able to reveal himself to her at this time.

Yun Che put away the black stone tablet, and put all thoughts of the World-Defying Heaven Manual and the Ancestral Divine Art out of his mind.
After that, he turned to Shui Meiyin and said, “Meiyin, after we return to the Deep Sea Realm, can you promise me one thing…”

……………….

When they returned to the Ten Directions Deep Sea Realm, Yun Che thought that the ocean-blue sky was as pretty as a picture as his eyes and soul drank in its splendor.

The world seemed so much more colorful and vibrant to him now.

The Three Yama Ancestors rushed toward Yun Che at the highest speed the moment they sniffed out his aura.
They reverentially stopped in front of him and greeted him.
“We welcome Master back to the realm.”

Yun Che was softly caressing the tri-colored Glazed Sound Stone around his neck, a warm and gentle smile on his face.
The Three Yama Ancestors’ voices caused him to look up at them reflexively, but the smile on his face was still there when he looked at them.

The moment they saw that smile, the Three Yama Ancestors felt a violent shudder run down their spines.
After that, they practically pissed themselves as they frantically prostrated themselves before Yun Che.

“Maaaaaassssster! Please do not be angry! This old slave deserves… deserves to die a thousand deaths!” Yan One howled as he smashed his head against the ground.
His crooked body was practically glued to the ground as he shook in terror.

“This old slave repents! I beg for Master’s forgiveness.” Yan Two was shaking even harder than Yan One.

“This old slave is incompetent and dull-witted.
Since I have incurred Master’s wrath, I fully deserve to die a thousand times over.
I beg Master to bestow his punishment upon this old slave.
You mustn’t become so angry that you hurt yourself,” Yan Three howled as his head banged off against the ground with the steady rhythm of a pounding hammer.

“…” Yun Che’s lips twitched… He immediately realized that his faint smile had scared the three old men witless.

“Rise.”

After he let go of the Glazed Sound Stone in an incredibly gentle manner, he flung a hand out and said, “Stop being eyesores and disturbing the peace! Go take a break somewhere!”

Yun Che immediately walked off after he said that.
The Three Yama Ancestors scrambled to their feet as they stared at his shrinking figure with eyes that were as wide as saucers.
Their brains simply couldn’t process what had just happened.

After he sent sound transmissions to Chi Wuyao, Qianye Ying’er, Caizhi, and Yan Tianxiao, Yun Che stood in the center of the Deep Sea Royal Hall, closed his eyes, and whispered, “He Ling, prepare to open the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm.”

He Ling’s excited voice very quickly rang out in his mind.
“Master, you’ve finally… thought things through!”

“Yes,” Yun Che said as he smiled and nodded his head.

“Before today, I was only thinking of using the most violent and cruel method to rip Long Bai apart.
Every day I had to wait was a torture because of my violent desire, and I wouldn’t hesitate to pay any price to make that desire into a reality.”

“But now, things have completely changed.”

As he spoke, a faint smile remained on his face, even when he mentioned the name “Long Bai”.

The figures of all the people who had reappeared in his life once more floated up in his mind as he closed his eyes and said, “Now, I wouldn’t mind if I had to wait three hundred years, or even three thousand years in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, much less a measly three years.”

“Because Long Bai and the Dragon God Realm… are no longer opponents that I will risk my life to defeat!”

Crack!

The joints in his hands cracked as he clenched his fists.
His voice was rich with malice and the promise of violence as he continued, “I am going to use the safest possible method to smash… him… to death!”
