Chapter 1626: The Theory of Attaining the Dao Through Divine Skills
Chapter 1626: Chapter 1626: The Theory of Attaining the Dao Through Divine Skills
On the seating.
Ye Feng’s mind was racing swiftly.
Through the cosmic historical images released by Xia Yao, he finally found out that the titles of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables are Disillusioned Heavenly Venerable, Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable, Sun Heavenly Venerable, Moon Heavenly Venerable, Qiyun Heavenly Venerable, Void Heaven Venerable, Heavenly Venerable Jing, Life Heavenly Venerable, Spirit Heavenly Immortal.
"It’s a pity, I don’t know all the reincarnated forms of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables, otherwise, I could find them to learn the second or third level of the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability."
Ye Feng thought secretly.
Based on his previous guesses, the Mad Drunkard is basically the reincarnation of the Disillusioned Heavenly Venerable.
Upon arriving at the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom today, knowing the titles of the Sun Heavenly Venerable and Moon Heavenly Venerable, combined with the information he obtained in the Immortal Realm, he feels that the subsequent Sun Immortal Venerable, Zhang Beihan, and Emperor Beihe are all reincarnations of the Sun Heavenly Venerable.
The reincarnation of the Moon Heavenly Venerable should be the Moon Immortal Venerate, Shi Youyou, in the Immortal Realm.
However, who are the reincarnations of the remaining six: Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable, Qiyun Heavenly Venerable, Void Heaven Venerable, Heavenly Venerable Jing, Life Heavenly Venerable, Spirit Heavenly Immortal?
This is a question that Ye Feng is very concerned about.
In the future, he can seek out the Mad Drunkard to learn the deeper aspects of the Divine Skill "Decrypting Eye", and he can also find Shi Youyou for an in-depth study of "Leaping Step".
But for the remaining Heavenly Venerable Divine Abilities, since he can’t find the reincarnation forms of those Heavenly Venerables, he cannot study deeply.
This made Ye Feng feel quite regretful.
"Forget it!"
"Even if I can’t find the reincarnated forms of other Heavenly Venerables, at least I have learned the first level of the Divine Skills of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables, which is stronger than other cultivators."
"One should be content."
Ye Feng mused inwardly.
On the other seats.
Heavenly Venerable Lu and Green Destiny Immortal Emperor looked up at the sky, still immersed in the previous images.
"Those are the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables!"
"I never thought that I could actually see the past images of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables with my own eyes and even know the specific names and functions of the Divine Skills they created."
"Unfortunately, we can’t learn them."
Many Ancient Immortal Emperors sighed.
They did not know that Ye Feng had mastered all the Divine Skills of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables, but because he lacked personal guidance from the Heavenly Venerables, he only mastered the "Hand of Myriad Transformations" completely, while for the remaining eight Divine Skills, he only learned the first level.
Even so, once the news spread, it would cause a sensation throughout the universe.
Many people looked towards Xia Yao.
"National Adviser Xia, it’s said that your Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom holds the Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability "Decrypting Eye" left by the first-generation Disillusioned Heavenly Venerable, is that true?"
Green Destiny Immortal Emperor asked.
This question immediately drew everyone’s attention.
Xia Yao said, "That is indeed true, but currently in our Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom, only the nine Supreme Divine Kings can complete the first-level content of "Decrypting Eye", better than how I’ve practiced it."
"First level?"
Everyone looked puzzled.
Xia Yao explained, "Perhaps you fellow Daoists do not know, each Heavenly Venerable Divine Ability has at least two levels of content. Without personal guidance from a Heavenly Venerable, no matter how exceptional the talent, one can only learn the first level and cannot fully unleash the power of this Divine Skill."
Everyone was enlightened upon hearing this.
It seems that even the nine Supreme Divine Kings of the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom are not qualified to receive personal teaching from the Disillusioned Heavenly Venerable, and cannot master "Decrypting Eye" completely.
"I wonder where the other Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills are kept, I really want to learn them."
Heavenly Venerable Lu expressed earnestly.
Everyone looked eager as well.
Ye Feng raised his eyebrows slightly.
He actually knows where the other Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills are located, but unfortunately, as he learned the first level of those Divine Skills, the places storing the Divine Skills were automatically destroyed, meaning, in the current universe, he is the only one who mastered these nine Divine Skills.
"This matter must be kept secret for now."
"If people knew that I have mastered the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills, it would definitely bring endless trouble."
Ye Feng thought to himself.
A certain Immortal Emperor asked loudly, "It’s said that mastering the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills can lead one to attain the Heavenly Venerable. Is this rumor true or not?"
As these words were spoken, everyone looked towards Xia Yao once more.
Even the Black Prison Master, Silent Death Emperor, and Outer Domain Ape-man in the shadows pricked up their ears, wanting to know if the Heavenly Venerable Divine Abilities could lead one directly to the Heavenly Dao Realm.
On the seating.
Xia Yao fell into silence.
Everyone was patiently waiting.
"Actually, I also know why the universe has the rumor that obtaining the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills can lead one to attain Heavenly Venerable, and I don’t understand it."
As these words were spoken, everyone was stunned.
Xia Yao continued, "Think about it, even before all the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills appeared, the Disillusioned Heavenly Venerable had successfully proven the Dao, hadn’t he? The second-generation Heavenly Venerable, Army-Destroyer Heavenly Venerable, also succeeded in proving the Dao without cultivating the Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills. Later Heavenly Venerables were the same."
She paused for a moment and added:
"So, even without mastering the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills, can’t one still reach the Heavenly Dao Realm?"
Upon hearing this, everyone agreed.
"That’s true, during the last Origin Era, when the ninth-generation Heavenly Venerable Spirit Heavenly Immortal emerged, they eventually succeeded in proving the Dao and ascended."
"It seems that only after that did the rumor spread that mastering the nine Heavenly Venerable Divine Skills can lead one to prove the Dao in the universe."
"Who started this false rumor?"
"Apparently, it’s just fake news."
Many cultivators lamented.
Actually, they all hope this rumor is true. Once that’s the case, as long as they painstakingly gather the Divine Skills of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables, they can attain the status of Heavenly Venerable.
At the seat.
Ye Feng looked bewildered.
"So, the rumor about acquiring the Divine Skills of the Nine Great Heavenly Venerables to become a Heavenly Venerable is probably false. I don’t know who is so mischievous as to spread this false news across the universe, it’s really abominable."
He couldn’t help but internally complain.
At this moment, Xia Yao said, "Fellow Daoists, now that the opening performance of our cross-year event has ended, how do you feel about the display of the universe’s past scenes? Are you satisfied?"
Upon hearing this, everyone smiled.
"Good, very good, extremely good!"
Someone spoke the all-purpose line.
"Very satisfied. If it weren’t for National Adviser Xia displaying the past scenes of the universe, we wouldn’t have known the origin of the universe’s life and the path of cultivation. This has been very enlightening for me. I plan to travel the universe and train myself."
Some, like class representatives, expressed views that resonated with most people.
"Unfortunately, through these scenes, we know that the current universe is divided, its scope far less than the previous nine Origin Eras."
"Yeah, what a pity."
"The current universe is entirely unsuitable for cultivation. Although a prosperous age has arrived, I still feel it’s far less complete than the previous nine Origin Eras."
"Our Origin Era has seen too many cosmic-grade wars, depleting the Realm Source."
"Speaking of the Realm Source, fellow Daoist Ye Feng, Sect Master of Misty Sect, is truly a genius. The treasured bottle he created to gather Realm Source, and the method of creating life to obtain Void Energy, are truly marvelous, solving the issue of the Realm Source."
Everyone turned to look at Ye Feng.
In an instant, he became the most eye-catching person in the venue.
"Ahem!" Ye Feng waved his hand, "You fellow Daoists overestimate me. I’m just a businessman hoping to make money with the treasured bottle of Realm Source."
Upon hearing this, everyone admired him even more.
"Sect Master Ye, there are too few sincere people like you. Please accept my bow!"
"Sect Master Ye, I have a daughter."
"Sect Master Ye, I’ve decided to divorce my husband."
Various Ancient Immortal Emperors expressed goodwill, but some of their bold words almost made Ye Feng spit blood on the spot, leaving him speechless.
At this moment, Xia Yao said again, "Fellow Daoists, I invited you to the cross-year event not only to show you scenes from the universe’s past but mainly to hope that you can take the current universe seriously and avoid further chaos."
She showed screenshots of various places in the current universe.
"Look, the current universe is full of lifeless galaxies, and the various worlds are not at their peak. It’s not as prosperous as the ancient universe."
"Therefore, I hope fellow Daoists can sit down and have a good talk, argue if you must, but don’t resort to violence. If the universe is damaged, it benefits none of us."
These words gained the approval of the majority.
At the seat.
The Black Prison Master lowered his head, his gaze icy.
A thousand miles away.
The Outer Domain Ape-man, wearing a Black Cloak, heard National Adviser Xia Yao’s words, his eyes full of mockery.
"Ha!"
"I’m not a person of your Twin Universe. For me, the more chaotic your universe, the better. Only then can we, the Godly Ape Clan, seize the opportunity."
"Considering the time, it should be about right, shouldn’t it?"
He looked towards the cross-year venue.
According to the agreement, the Black Prison Master should take action now. Otherwise, the best opportunity would be missed.
At the cross-year venue.
All representatives from various major forces felt that some important agreements should be signed to ensure the universe’s prosperity and completeness. Only in this way can there be external conditions for proving the Dao.
If they keep fighting recklessly, the universe will regress, and no one can prove the Dao of the Heavenly Venerable in this universe.
"I propose that you cease wars," Xia Yao spoke loudly, "If there are personal grudges, you can settle them on the Life and Death Stage, trying to keep the scope of battles small, is that okay?"
The moment she spoke, the venue fell silent.
Many cultivators considered the significance and feasibility of this proposal.
"Avoiding large-scale wars is a good thing. If certain people and certain sects have grievances, they can settle them on their own, without involving others."
"Not harming the innocent, I agree with this."
"I agree too."
Many cultivators expressed their support.
Hearing these words, Xia Yao felt relieved.
As the State Preceptor of the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom, her main duty is to maintain the balance of the universe and prevent large-scale wars and conflicts, assisting in the arrival of a prosperous age.
Now that most people express support for her statement, she naturally feels happy.
"I don’t understand."
Suddenly, someone spoke.
Everyone immediately looked towards the voice.
It was the Necromancy Monarch, head of the Harmony Faction of the Conspirator, who stood up and said, "Since you don’t want large-scale wars, why didn’t the Eternal Ancient Divine Kingdom come out to stop the cosmic wars initiated by the Main Battle Faction back then?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the venue fell into complete silence.
Many looked towards Xia Yao.
Indeed, the Main Battle Faction of the Conspirator launched numerous cosmic-grade wars in the past, affecting and destroying countless worlds. Why was no one stopping them?
This point is puzzling.
