275: The Spirit of Heaven
The news of the Su Family's Old Ancestors appearing in the Lower Realm spread quickly, but many people had no concept of the Su Family's power.
Thus, they were just full of shock, shouting, 'How terrifying!'
People in the Lower Realm ultimately had limited knowledge. Although they knew the Old Ancestors of the Su Family were very powerful and came from the Immortal Realm, in their eyes, it was just 'powerful' versus 'even more powerful.' Regardless, they were all unreachable existences in their eyes.
They were, after all, people in the Lower Realm who hadn't seen much of the world.
Although the three, including Gui Yan'er, had been dealt with, the Xuantian Realm was plunged into immense grief.
When the three had attacked earlier, it caused too many people in the Xuantian Realm to die.
Many people's friends, family, parents, Senior Brothers, and even children had been slaughtered by them, leaving no remains behind.
Everywhere in the Xuantian Realm, one could see people dressed in white robes, holding Soul-summoning banners, wandering on various hills.
'My child!'
In the mountains somewhere, a middle-aged woman's face was full of desperate tears. She sat weakly on the ground weeping, while many people around her, all dressed in white robes, stood there in utter silence, their expressions unable to hide their sorrow.
Because there were no bodies, they could only build cenotaphs.
The most painful thing in the world is for parents to bury their children, especially when even the bodies cannot be recovered.
Somewhere in the Southern Region, a youth with reddened eyes kowtowed to the grave in front of him with a choked voice.
'Revered Master!'
Besides this, similar events were happening all over the Xuantian Realm.
Just then, the Xuantian Realm erupted in tremors, and illusory figures dressed in white appeared out of thin air, each holding a Soul-summoning banner in one hand and a bell in the other.
'Ring, ring, ring!'
The crisp sound echoed throughout the Xuantian Realm, as if soothing the departed Souls.
The Heavenly Dao of the Xuantian Realm was also grieving for the death of these living beings.
At the very core of the Heavenly Dao, there was a pitch-black altar engraved with incredibly mysterious runes.
Sitting on the altar was an illusory figure; she wore a white dress, revealing her icy, tender legs, and her exquisitely beautiful appearance made people fall for her.
However, at this moment, the figure's face was covered in tear stains.
The Spirit of the Heavenly Dao!
As the spirit of the Xuantian Realm, she could feel the joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness of all living beings. Now, this immense grief made her unable to help but shed tears.
She looked toward Mount Wangyun and said in an ethereal voice, 'Su Chen, although it is still tens of thousands of years away from our plan, it is almost time.'
'From today on, the Xuantian Realm is yours.'
After speaking, the Spirit of the Heavenly Dao raised her hand and began to condense incredibly profound power in her palm, then suddenly shot it toward Su Chen.
At the same time, Su Chen suddenly turned his head and looked into the distance.
In an instant, an invisible force surrounded him.
'This is... the Power of the Great Dao!'
Su Chen's eyes narrowed instantly, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. The Xuantian Realm actually possessed the Power of the Great Dao!
This world was truly extraordinary.
After hesitating for a moment, Su Chen did not resist this Power of the Great Dao. He saw the faint Power of the Great Dao surrounding him begin to gather toward the center of his forehead, eventually disappearing completely.
After carefully sensing this Dao mark, Su Chen's expression was suddenly shocked; this was... a Dao mark!
The world had acknowledged him as its Revered Master?
What was going on!?
Su Chen was completely bewildered. He hadn't figured out what had happened or why the Xuantian Realm had suddenly acknowledged him as its Revered Master.
He could feel that everything in the Xuantian Realm was now under his control. In other words, Su Chen was now the Dominator of the Xuantian Realm.
Su Chen still hadn't figured out why the Xuantian Realm possessed the Power of the Great Dao, and now this had suddenly happened.
He looked into the distance again. After becoming the Revered Master of the Xuantian Realm, many things appeared in Su Chen's vision, including the Spirit of the Xuantian Realm, that exquisitely beautiful woman.
Filled with countless questions, Su Chen instantly disappeared from where he was and arrived on the altar.
When he looked at the altar, his eyes couldn't help but ripple slightly.
Because the woman sitting on the altar was truly too beautiful; her appearance was breathtakingly beautiful, her fair skin was delicate, and there wasn't the slightest flaw on her entire body, just like a perfect work of art.
This was the first time he had seen a beauty of this level.
Seeing Su Chen's arrival, the woman was not the slightest bit surprised. She restrained her sad emotions and then smiled, saying, 'Sit.'
As she spoke, a chair appeared out of thin air behind Su Chen.
Su Chen was also very surprised by the woman's behavior, but he still sat down casually and then stared straight at the woman.
'Are you the Spirit of the Xuantian Realm?'
The woman nodded with a smile, her eyes filled with intimacy when looking at Su Chen.
Su Chen frowned slightly upon hearing this: 'That shouldn't be. Worlds in the Lower Realm shouldn't have spirits; there is no precedent for such a thing.'
Normally, although the Heavenly Dao of the Lower Realm possesses a certain amount of intelligence, it is no different from a machine.
But the spirit before him had absolutely no mechanical feel; the feeling she gave Su Chen was almost no different from a normal living being.
The woman smiled slightly: 'I come from the Immortal Realm.'
Su Chen's expression was calm; he was not at all surprised by her answer, because this situation was something he had anticipated.
An Immortal Emperor can travel freely between the Immortal Realm and the Lower Realm, and he can bring the Xuantian Realm up, so naturally, there are powerful beings in the Immortal Realm who can bring a world down.
Su Chen frowned slightly: 'Even if you come from the Immortal Realm, a spirit shouldn't exist, because the Immortal Realm is controlled by the Dao.'
The woman chuckled twice. She looked at Su Chen again, and her gaze gradually became a bit strange. It could even be said to be... ambiguous?
'Perhaps you don't know, but the reason I possess a spirit is all because of you.'
'Because of me?'
Su Chen was slightly stunned, and he immediately blurted out a denial: 'How is that possible?'
He had never done anything to the Heavenly Dao of the Xuantian Realm. Although he had spared the Wutong Divine Tree, that thing could absolutely not make a Heavenly Dao give birth to a spirit with complete intelligence.
Facing Su Chen's denial, the woman did not continue to answer; her eyes carried a look of reminiscence.
After being quiet for a while, the woman had a faint smile on her lips: 'You instructed me back then that many things cannot be said, so as not to affect normal development, but it seems that it has already exceeded the original expectations now.'
'Because originally, the three of Gui Yan'er would not have come, and many things have become chaotic. But even so, I still cannot say, because this is what you instructed.'
Hearing these words, Su Chen just stared at her silently.
After a long silence, he asked in an extremely serious tone: 'Are you sure it's me?'
Hearing this, the woman seemed to think of something and revealed a smile that could topple nations.
'I know your secret; you said you are not a person from this world. You told me this yourself.'
With these words finished, Su Chen's pupils suddenly constricted.
'How could it be! She actually knew about this too.'
Su Chen was not a person from this world; almost no one except himself knew this, and he had never told anyone.
What exactly was going on!
