Chapter 635: The Celestial Deity's Finale
Chapter 635: The Celestial Deity's Finale
The Celestial Deity, transformed from a lingering vow of San Sheng's junior apprentice.
He was an unconventional Yang Six.
Initially, San Sheng's name was known to all in the Yang Plane.
However, many overlooked the Celestial Deity, San Sheng's junior apprentice.
His innate talent was also terrifying.
If not for San Sheng, he might have been one of the most dazzling lights of his era.
Yet, his brilliance was completely overshadowed by San Sheng.
In Qi Yuan's eyes, if following the script, this junior apprentice, the Celestial Deity, would have likely turned to the dark side long ago.
But the Celestial Deity... did not succumb to darkness.
He remained diligent and uncomplaining, even helping San Sheng fill in the gaps.
Only at the very end, when their clan was devoured by the Void, with no escape, did he finally fall.
A lingering vow was born, transforming into the Celestial Deity, to oppose the Void.
And he became an unconventional Yang Six.
His purpose was to resist the Void.
Or rather, he took on the responsibility that San Sheng left unfinished.
Qi Yuan stood in the void, and the Celestial Deity did not appear before his eyes.
He sighed softly.
"No matter what happened in the past... you and I are destined to be adversaries."
San Sheng's junior apprentice held no grudge against San Sheng.
However, his lingering vow was another matter.
Especially with the Celestial Deity's actions, he stood in direct opposition to Qi Yuan.
If the other Yang Six, including San Sheng, used relatively gentle means to resist the Void,
The Celestial Deity's methods were exceptionally fierce.
It could even be said that the Celestial Deity established the Nine Heavens Divine Palace to enslave the Yin Plane and even the Rebirth Plane, using the lives of the Yin Plane and Rebirth Plane's beings to mass-produce powerful beings who had survived the Three Disasters and Three Tribulations, in order to oppose the Void.
However, this method sacrificed the lives of the Yin Plane's beings.
Regarding the Abandoned Land, the Celestial Deity and the Heavenly Emperor had different views.
For those who mistakenly entered the Abandoned Land, the Heavenly Emperor chose to let them pay a price to eliminate the Descent Curse.
The Celestial Deity's choice was simply to kill.
Because, in the Celestial Deity's eyes, every living being that entered the Abandoned Land and died to the Void, only served to strengthen it.
Qi Yuan stood quietly.
The Celestial Deity was a tough nut to crack.
Or rather, this unconventional Yang Six, even the current Qi Yuan, did not have a guaranteed victory.
It could even be said that the odds were against him.
Unless he truly found Reincarnation and stepped into the next realm.
The wind ceased, and the rain stopped.
Battle intent quietly permeated the air.
In the vast universe, many powerful beings involuntarily retreated or protected themselves with secret techniques.
A clash between beings of this caliber would cause injury even if a hint of their battle leaked out.
"Is the battle finally about to begin?"
"It's been so many years since we last witnessed a battle of this magnitude!"
"I want to see just how far we are from their level."
No one knew how many years had passed since the world last experienced a battle of this intensity.
The powerful beings of the Universal Alliance were now caught in a dilemma.
To help or... not to help? After all, this Qi Yuan had deep connections with the Yang Plane, and if... Qi Yuan sided with the Yang Plane,
If they intervened and suffered heavy losses, and Qi Yuan then turned against them with the Yang Plane's support, the Universal Alliance might face immediate annihilation.
Of course, even before Qi Yuan became a being of the Yin Plane, this possibility existed.
But this was always a gamble.
"To help or not to help?" Crows Beak Daoist Lord spoke up.
"If we don't help, Qi Yuan has a high chance of perishing in this battle!"
"This is our only chance, our only opportunity to enter the Yang Plane and reach the pinnacle!"
These Dao Lords whispered among themselves, and many eyes turned towards the Dao Lord who controlled the Dao of Fate.
"I..."
The Bronze Mirror's voice hesitated, and his face contorted.
"I can't see clearly!"
"I can't see clearly!"
Even though he was the Dao Lord who controlled fate, when it came to a battle of this magnitude, he couldn't foresee the outcome or the future.
However, at that moment, the Dao Lords of the Universal Alliance suddenly froze.
Not only them, but all the other powerful beings around also looked on in astonishment.
Because... the battle did not commence.
What began was... deathly silence, or annihilation.
The Celestial Deity... was dead!
Or rather... the Celestial Deity was fading away.
This was enough to shock everyone, or rather... horrify them.
The Celestial Deity was an unconventional Yang Six.
Just like that... he was gone?
"I... am unwilling."
As the Celestial Deity dissipated, his voice carried reluctance, but his expression remained calm.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yuan's eyes dimmed slightly.
The Celestial Deity was dissipating, countless information particles were fading away, and he came to understand much.
The Celestial Deity was a lingering vow left behind by his junior.
This lingering vow's purpose was always to resolve the Return to Nothing.
In the beginning, San Sheng disappeared, seeking the path of reincarnation.
He fought against Return to Nothing alone, eventually dying in battle, leaving behind only his vow to oppose it.
Thus, the Celestial Deity's entire life was spent in opposition to Return to Nothing.

One could even say he embarked on an alternative path to Yang Six.
However, no matter how powerful the Celestial Deity became, he was not a perfect Yang Six, and one could even say he was merely a lingering vow.
The junior's vow was to resolve Return to Nothing.
But in his junior's heart, San Sheng would follow the correct path of reincarnation and ultimately resolve Return to Nothing.
In his heart, San Sheng was perfect, invincible, and capable of anything.
Later, due to his junior's death, San Sheng's Dao heart was flawed, and coupled with his inability to glimpse reincarnation, he chose the path of cycles as a second option.
Precisely because of this, the vow-turned-Celestial Deity would feel disappointed.
San Sheng... didn't take the path of reincarnation but instead chose the path of cycles.
Then, what was the meaning of it all? It would have been better to take another path of Yang Six from the start.
Of course, what disappointed the Celestial Deity the most was that San Sheng abandoned the path of reincarnation, which he had longed for, because of his death.
In his eyes, San Sheng was perfect and capable of anything.
Yet, he considered their shared sect's bond, abandoning reincarnation and entering the cycle.
The Celestial Deity felt disappointed and agonized.
Since... his senior couldn't do it, then he would resolve Return to Nothing.
Thus, the Celestial Deity established the Nine Heavens Divine Palace, continuously creating powerful beings to oppose and resolve Return to Nothing.
But... when the Celestial Deity saw Qi Yuan, his vow stirred.
The Celestial Deity seemed to see... Qi Yuan had the opportunity to resolve Return to Nothing.
Or, one could say, at this moment, the Celestial Deity's vow chose to believe in Qi Yuan once more.
He believed... in Qi Yuan, or rather, San Sheng Senior, who was still that all-capable senior.
He could shield him from the wind and rain, and he could... thoroughly resolve Return to Nothing.
So, in the Celestial Deity's plan, if San Sheng Senior wasn't there, he would resolve Return to Nothing.
But upon seeing San Sheng Senior, he would once again choose to believe in San Sheng, and then... disappear.
This was his plan, and it was also his vow.
The Celestial Deity's eyes were clear, and his body was continually dissipating, his true spirit fading into oblivion.
"San Sheng, or Qi Yuan... if you cannot resolve Return to Nothing... I... will definitely return."
Qi Yuan gazed at the Celestial Deity, as if seeing his junior.
The Celestial Deity's true spirit was fading away.
His power, due to his plan or, one could say... because of the Celestial Deity's vow, enveloped Qi Yuan.
Powerful forces and cosmic laws were being infused into Qi Yuan.
This was the Celestial Deity's accumulated experience in opposing Return to Nothing over the years.
Additionally, it was the Celestial Deity's understanding of Return to Nothing.
And also, the Celestial Deity's insights into Yang Six.
Only then did Qi Yuan understand that over the years, the Celestial Deity's struggle against Return to Nothing and the descent curses he endured were no less challenging than San Sheng's creation of the cycle path.
In truth... the Celestial Deity had reached a dead end, or one could say, the end of his rope.
Perhaps it wouldn't be long before the Celestial Deity's final vow would also dissipate, leaving behind only a symbol in this world.
And then... slowly, he would be forgotten by everyone, completely returning to nothing.
A murmur also sounded in Qi Yuan's ear at this moment.
Qi Yuan seemed to see his junior fighting against Return to Nothing alone, protecting their clan, bleeding at the edge of the universe, his breath fading, and murmuring in his final moments.
"San Sheng Senior, when we were young, you protected me, the sect, and our clan... I always stood behind you, content and at ease, enjoying these benefits."
"Now that you're gone, it's my turn to protect our clan in your stead."
"Actually, you don't owe the clan anything, nor do I, but they... have always blamed you, which is truly hateful."
"San Sheng Senior, I know you will find the perfect reincarnation."
The illusion dissipated, like a dream, a bubble, and a shadow, as if it never existed.
The Celestial Deity's hideous voice resounded at this moment.
"You and I will both return to nothing, he's a fool!"
After this final roar, he ultimately disappeared, returning to nothing.
