Chapter 635: The Heavenly Deity's End
Chapter 635: The Heavenly Deity's End
The Heavenly Deity, transformed from a Vow of San Sheng, his junior brother.
He was an alternate version of Yang Six.
In the past, the name San Sheng was known throughout the Yang Realm.
However, many people overlooked the Heavenly Deity, San Sheng's junior brother.
His talent was also terrifying.
Without San Sheng, he might have been one of the brightest lights of his era.
But his brilliance was completely overshadowed by San Sheng.
In Qi Yuan's view, if the script were to be followed, San Sheng's junior brother, the Heavenly Deity, would have long since turned dark.
But the Heavenly Deity... did not turn dark.
He always worked diligently, even filling in the gaps for San Sheng.
Only in the end, when the clan was devoured by Return to Nothing, he had no choice but to ultimately perish.
A Vow was born, transforming into the Heavenly Deity, to resist Return to Nothing.
And he became an alternate version of Yang Six.
His existence was to resist Return to Nothing.
Or rather, the unfinished responsibility of San Sheng, which he took upon himself to fulfill.
Qi Yuan stood in the void, and the Heavenly Deity did not appear in his sight.
He sighed softly.
"No matter what happened in the past... we are ultimately on opposite sides."
San Sheng's junior brother did not bear any hatred towards San Sheng.
But his Vow was a different story.
Especially the actions of the Heavenly Deity, which placed him in opposition to Qi Yuan.
While the other Yang Six used relatively gentle means to resist Return to Nothing, including San Sheng.
The Heavenly Deity's methods were particularly fierce.
He even established the Nine Heavens Divine Gateway, intending to enslave the Yin Realm and the Afterlife Realm, using the beings of the Yin Realm and the Afterlife Realm to mass-produce powerful beings who had endured the three calamities and three tribulations, to combat Return to Nothing.
However, this method sacrificed the beings of the Yin Realm.
Regarding the Abandoned Land, the Heavenly Deity and the Heavenly Emperor had different views.
For beings who mistakenly entered the Abandoned Land, the Heavenly Emperor chose to make them pay a price to eliminate the Falling Curse.
The Heavenly Deity's choice was simply to kill.
Because, to the Heavenly Deity, any being who mistakenly entered the Abandoned Land and died to Return to Nothing would only strengthen Return to Nothing.
Qi Yuan stood quietly.
The Heavenly Deity was a tough opponent.
Or rather, an alternate version of Yang Six, even the current Qi Yuan had no certainty of victory.
In fact, the disadvantage was on his side.
Unless he truly sought reincarnation and advanced to the next realm.
The wind stopped, and the rain ceased.
The will to fight quietly spread.
Across the universe, many powerful beings involuntarily retreated or used secret techniques to protect themselves.
The battle between such high-level beings, even a single leak, could injure them.
"Is the battle finally about to begin?"
"It's been so many years since we've seen a fight of this caliber!"
"I must see how far the gap is between us and them."
For many years, this world had not seen a battle of such intensity.
The powerful beings of the Cosmic Alliance were now in a dilemma.
To help or... not to help?
After all, Qi Yuan had deep ties to the Yang Realm. If... Qi Yuan stood on the side of the Yang Realm.
If they assisted and suffered heavy losses, and then Qi Yuan joined forces with the Yang Realm, the Cosmic Alliance would likely be destroyed immediately.
Of course, even if Qi Yuan were a being of the Yin Realm, this possibility still existed.
But it was a gamble.
"Help or not?" the Black Crow Dao Lord spoke.
"If we don't help, Qi Yuan has a high chance of dying in this battle!"
"This is our only chance, our only opportunity to enter the Yang Realm, our only chance to reach the pinnacle!"
These Dao Lords whispered to each other, many looking at the Dao Lord who wielded the Path of Destiny.
"I..."
The Bronze Mirror's voice wavered, ultimately distorting.
"I can't see clearly!"
"I can't see clearly!"
Involving a battle of this level, even as the Dao Lord who wielded Fate, he could not see the outcome of this battle or the path ahead.
However, at that moment, the Dao Lords of the Cosmic Alliance suddenly froze.
Not just them, but the other surrounding powerful beings also had their eyes widen in shock.
Because... the battle had not begun.
What began... was silence, or rather, annihilation.
The Heavenly Deity... was dead!
Or rather... the Heavenly Deity was in the process of vanishing.
This... was enough to shock everyone, or rather, terrify them.
The Heavenly Deity was an alternate version of Yang Six.
Just like that... he was dead?
"I... am unwilling."
The dissolving Heavenly Deity, his voice filled with reluctance, but his expression remained calm.
Hearing this, Qi Yuan’s gaze dimmed slightly.
The Heavenly Deity was dissolving, countless information particles dispersing, and he knew much.
The Heavenly Deity was a strand of Vow left behind by his junior brother.
This strand of Vow had always aimed to resolve Return to Nothing.
Back then, San Sheng disappeared, seeking the path of Reincarnation.
He fought Return to Nothing alone and ultimately died, leaving behind only a Vow to continue the fight against Return to Nothing.
Thus, the Heavenly Deity spent his entire life battling Return to Nothing.
He even took a different path, akin to that of Yang Six.
However, no matter how powerful the Heavenly Deity was, he was not a perfect Yang Six, let alone just a strand of Vow.
His junior brother’s Vow was to resolve Return to Nothing.
But in his heart, San Sheng would choose the correct path of Reincarnation and ultimately resolve Return to Nothing.
In his mind, San Sheng was perfect, invincible, and all-powerful.
Later, due to his junior brother’s death, San Sheng’s Dao heart was flawed. Unable to grasp Reincarnation, he resorted to the path of cycles.
Because of this, the Heavenly Deity, born from the Vow, felt disappointed.
San Sheng... did not choose the path of Reincarnation, but the path of cycles.
What, then, was the meaning of everything?
It would have been better to choose another path of Yang Six from the beginning.
Of course, what disappointed the Heavenly Deity the most was that San Sheng abandoned the long-cherished path of Reincarnation due to his death.
In his eyes, San Sheng was perfect and all-powerful.
But in the end, he considered their fellow discipleship and abandoned Reincarnation for the path of cycles.
The Heavenly Deity was deeply disappointed and pained.
Since... his senior brother could not do it, he would resolve Return to Nothing himself.
Thus, the Heavenly Deity established the nine Heavenly Deity gates, continuously creating powerful beings to combat and resolve Return to Nothing.
But... when the Heavenly Deity saw Qi Yuan, his Vow flickered.
The Heavenly Deity seemed to see... the potential in Qi Yuan to resolve Return to Nothing.
Or perhaps, this time, the Heavenly Deity’s Vow chose to believe in Qi Yuan once again.
He believed... that Qi Yuan, or rather, his senior brother San Sheng, was still the all-powerful senior brother who could protect him and thoroughly resolve Return to Nothing.
Therefore, in the Heavenly Deity’s design, if there was no senior brother San Sheng, he would resolve Return to Nothing himself.
But upon seeing his senior brother, he would choose to believe in San Sheng once more, and then... dissipate.
This was his design, his Vow.
The Heavenly Deity’s eyes were clear, and his body was continuously dissolving, his true spirit fading.
"If you, San Sheng, or Qi Yuan... cannot resolve Return to Nothing... I... will surely return."
Qi Yuan looked at the Heavenly Deity, as if seeing his junior brother.
The Heavenly Deity’s true spirit was continuously dissolving.
His power, due to his design, or perhaps because of the Heavenly Deity’s Vow, enveloped Qi Yuan.
Powerful forces and the laws of the Dao were being infused into Qi Yuan.
This was the accumulated experience of the Heavenly Deity’s long battle against Return to Nothing.
And the Heavenly Deity’s understanding of Return to Nothing.
As well as his insights into the path of Yang Six.
Qi Yuan finally understood that for so many years, the Heavenly Deity’s suffering from the curse of decline while fighting Return to Nothing was no less severe than San Sheng’s creation of the cyclic path.
In fact... the Heavenly Deity was at the end of his rope, or perhaps at the end of his strength.
Perhaps it wouldn’t be long before the Heavenly Deity’s last strand of Vow would dissipate, leaving only a symbol in this world.
Then... he would be slowly forgotten by everyone, ultimately Return to Nothing.
At this moment, a murmuring voice echoed in Qi Yuan’s ears.
Qi Yuan seemed to see his junior brother fighting Return to Nothing, protecting the clan, and bloodshed in the cosmic wilderness, his aura dissipating, murmuring to himself in his final moments.
"Senior Brother San Sheng, when we were young, you protected me, the sect, and the clan... I always stood behind you, enjoying these things with a clear conscience."
"Now that you’re gone, it’s my turn to protect the clan."
"Actually, you don’t owe the clan anything, nor do I. Yet they... have always blamed you, which is truly hateful."
"Senior Brother San Sheng, I know you will find the perfect path of Reincarnation."
The shadow dissipated, like a dream or an illusion, as if it had never existed.
The Heavenly Deity’s fierce voice echoed at this moment.
"We both Return to Nothing, he is foolish!"
With that roar, he finally dissipated, Return to Nothing.
