539: A dialogue across time and space

After obtaining the [Cloud Pattern Divine Seal], a Cultivation Technique from ten eras ago, Li Qi immediately consumed Potential Points to elevate this Cultivation Technique to the Major Achievement realm.

Naturally, Li Qi was also able to understand all the seals.

There were many [Cloud Pattern Divine Seal] remnants left on the qing zun cauldron—those blurred ancient inscriptions on the cauldron's body. These characters contained vast and miraculous power; a single seal could shatter the firmament.

According to the Cultivation Technique, these [Cloud Pattern Divine Seal] were created by the supreme experts of ten eras ago, imitating the Great Dao Text, and surprisingly possessed some of the power and charm of the Great Dao Text.

It was precisely because the qing zun cauldron was engraved with a large number of [Cloud Pattern Divine Seal] that this small cauldron was preserved and not lost in the long river of time.

Li Qi carefully examined the [Cloud Pattern Divine Seal] densely covering the qing zun cauldron, his expression growing increasingly surprised.

Although the cauldron was engraved with a large number of seals capable of destroying the heavens and extinguishing the earth, he discovered that this qing zun cauldron... could not be considered a weapon...

Or rather, it was not merely a weapon; the main value of this qing zun cauldron... was actually to transmit messages.

"Oh, people of the distant future, I am speaking to you through this qing zun cauldron..."

"I hope this cauldron can endure in the world, and that you can see what I have said..."

"We are about to face destruction. Every ten eras, the entire starry universe will be destroyed, but it will also usher in a rebirth..."

"Nothing can endure forever; the end of all things... will ultimately be destruction..."

"Because a certain great and ancient existence... does not allow us to endure..."

"Even if one understands the Great Dao Text, masters the Three Thousand Great Daos, or attains the Sacred Throne..."

"What does it matter..."

"All Sacred Kings will fall and turn into dust..."

"All of this is a conspiracy..."

"The Great Dao Text is unreliable, so I created the similar Cloud Pattern Divine Seal, hoping it would not be affected and could survive..."

"We sensed the coming danger and took some measures, but unfortunately... we failed..."

"I hope you can break this terrible Reincarnation, and I wish for you to survive..."

"..."

"..."

"..."

Many of the Cloud Pattern Divine Seal on the qing zun cauldron had faded and disappeared, with only nearly half remaining. After interpreting this half of the seals, Li Qi had a full understanding of the content.

Put simply, this qing zun cauldron was just a mouthpiece. Through it, Li Qi learned what had happened in the distant past, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

Li Qi could not help but take a deep breath; he knew that what Aurora the Sacred King had just said was true, and Aurora had not lied to him.

Li Qi looked at Aurora the Sacred King and slowly said, "I am very grateful that you would tell me such important news... but why did you choose me?"

"Do the other Sacred Kings know?"

Aurora the Sacred King shook his head slightly, "The other Sacred Kings do not know yet."

"Before this, I did indeed identify a few Sacred Kings, intending to tell them about the qing zun cauldron and overcome the difficulties together..."

"Why not just tell everyone?"

"Everyone? That is impossible."

"If I told all the Sacred Kings—you should know more or less what kind of character those Sacred Kings have. Not to mention those who are relatively normal and easy to deal with, there are some Sacred Kings who fight and kill all year round, acting without any taboos; they are basically half-mad..."

"If the news spreads and lets these half-mad ones know about the Great Destruction, it would do more harm than good. They wouldn't care about the Great Destruction; what they would rather do is destroy everything."

"If I announced it to the world, letting everyone know about the Great Destruction, that would be even less advisable..."

"The ancient inscriptions on the qing zun cauldron have already stated that behind the Great Destruction lies a great existence, and it is this existence that caused all of this."

"If this great existence discovers that everyone already knows about the Great Destruction, it might trigger the crisis early, causing the Great Destruction to arrive ahead of time!"

"If only a few people know about the Great Destruction, it might not affect the overall situation and would not trigger any abnormalities... but if too many people know, then it is hard to say..."

"We are currently in the tenth era after the last destruction. Although it is nearing its end, we still have a little time, and there is still room to strive for... If the Great Destruction starts early..."

"Then everything will be over, and it will be too late..."

As the voice fell, Li Qi also fell silent. He had to admit that what Aurora the Sacred King said was quite reasonable; even Li Qi could not find any faults in it.

Li Qi looked at Aurora the Sacred King, his eyes revealing a hint of realization, "So you chose me?"

"Yes, it is you."

"Although you are not the Child of the Great Path... you are far stronger than the Child of the Great Path!"

"You are the most suitable candidate!"
