227: The Emperor of Heaven likes abstraction?
The group fell silent.
What kind of existence was the mysterious black lotus that compelled people to prostrate?
This question lingered in everyone's hearts.
[Ye Liufeng (Group Owner): Li Changsheng, Wang Xuanba, why don't you ask the old men prostrating beside you and see what they say?]
[Fang Yuan (Lost Soul): +1.]
[Li Changsheng: I'll try.]
[Wang Xuanba: Asking now.]
The group members didn't have to wait long.
After only about half a minute, Wang Xuanba was the first to provide an answer.
[Wang Xuanba: These two disabled old men said that when they searched ancient texts before, they saw the rumor of 'black lotus creation' in many ancient texts. They said this 'black lotus' is called Truth Black Lotus, that it is the creator, and the origin of everything.]
[Li Changsheng: Right!]
[The result I got is similar, but there is one more useful piece of information.]
[It says this black lotus is the source of all energy and truly exists in this world. However, it is said that only those who reach the Supreme Realm can see and perceive it, otherwise, they can only wait for it to reveal itself.]
[Ji Xuantian: Oh my god! So it is such a great existence, no wonder even the patriarchs of Imperial Clans have to kneel!]
[Li Fei: Then what does its appearance signify?]
[Li Changsheng: I don't know either...]
[The patriarchs said they only just learned the truth of the legend.]
At the same time.
The celestial phenomena and the appearance of the black lotus in the sky also stirred up monstrous waves throughout the entire Wan Ding God Domain.
If it were just an ordinary large black lotus, that would be one thing!
But!
All the cultivators in the God Domain, even the Five Heavenly Emperors of the Hong Meng Second Tribulation, could clearly and deeply feel an extremely primitive and vast mysterious aura from that black lotus.
This aura did not make them breathless, nor did it render them immobile.
But it truly made the spiritual energy, immortal energy, demonic energy... within their bodies all boil and rejoice!
"black lotus creation... Could the rumor of black lotus creation actually be true?!"
"I feel all the demonic energy in my body is excited!"
"Why has the creation black lotus appeared!? Is something big about to happen?"
"Begging the black lotus to bless me with more fortuitous encounters and smooth breakthroughs..."
"..."
On the God Sacrifice Square.
Under the gaze of countless eyes, five figures appeared in the sky one after another.
The hazy white divine light floating in the sky swept across their bodies, allowing the people below to only see blurred human forms, looking mysterious and powerful!
"Do we have to appear like this every time?"
One of the five people in the air said.
"Don't you think this is cool?"
"It's cool... but isn't it a bit childish? We're not young anymore..."
"Haha, men are boys until they die."
These five people.
They were the Five Heavenly Emperors, figures of countless legends throughout the Wan Ding God Domain!
Their appearances were unclear within the light and shadow, only vaguely distinguishable as four men and one woman. The woman was naturally the Southern Pseudo-Emperor Duan Lianxin!
Rainbow-like light bands emerged from the void, transforming into chairs and tables of brilliant colors.
These chairs and tables floated in the air, swaying left and right and bobbing up and down with the wind.
The five people sat down on their respective chairs.
"I've wanted to say this for a long time."
After sitting down, Duan Lianxin glanced at the cultivators flying in the air below and around them, and a hint of awkwardness reappeared on her face: "Sitting here like this, don't you feel a bit..."
"A bit abstract?"
"Abstract? Heh heh, that's an interesting new word, I like it very much."
The Eastern Heavenly Emperor Zhao Jing stroked his chin and chuckled. He spread his arms and asked the Western Heavenly Emperor Lin Shi opposite him: "Brother Lin! What do you say?"
"Hahaha! I've lived too long, and I'm tired of staying in any kind of palace or divine hall. Now, only playing what young people play can make me feel the joy of life again. If this is abstract... then I like it! Hahahaha."
"Alright!"
The Central Heavenly Emperor Li Yue, who was always the most serious, interrupted their idle chat with a stern face and went straight to the point: "Don't forget what we gathered to discuss, it's time to talk about serious matters!"
Hearing him say this.
The expressions of the five people became much more serious.
Their gazes met in the air, and the topic switched extremely quickly.
"I didn't expect that there has always been a Heavenly Dao above us, and we didn't notice it at all before."
"This Heavenly Dao is too abnormal, it can even deceive us, it's definitely not an ordinary Heavenly Dao!"
"Yes, those Heavenly Mandated Protagonists say it's the Collapsing Heavenly Dao."
"I originally thought the name 'Collapsing Heavenly Dao' was too arbitrary, but after seeing it oppose the creation black lotus just now, I realized this name is too accurate."
"Then what should we do?"
The last sentence was asked by Duan Lianxin.
In this small group of five, she, being the weakest in strength, has always had little decision-making power, basically just asking for the opinions of the other four.
The other four remained silent for a moment.
Then, as if they had all thought of something at the same time, they looked at each other and smiled.
...
[Li Changsheng: Brothers, good news!]
[After the Heavenly Emperors discovered that the Collapsing Heavenly Dao was opposing the creation black lotus, they confirmed that this Heavenly Dao is not with them.]
[So they are going to help us Heavenly Mandated Protagonists fight against the Heavenly Dao!]
[Ye Liufeng (Group Owner): Great! Are there any specific plans or arrangements?]
[Lan Ao (Lost Soul): ⊙▽⊙]
[Li Changsheng: Before that, they want to know all sorts of information about our protagonist group. If no one has any objections, I'll share all our information with them?]
[Fang Yuan (Lost Soul): I have no objection.]
[Li Fei: I have no objection either.]
[Wang Xuanba: Whatever you want, if possible, you can come to the Extreme North first to save me. I'm still frozen here.]
Almost all the other protagonists in the group also expressed their willingness to agree.
After all, the basis of cooperation is mutual trust.
About the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
[Li Changsheng: Very smoothly.]
[The Heavenly Emperors now have the basic information about our nine Heavenly Mandated Protagonists. They plan to first help our nine people gather together. They said that our nine people have never truly gathered, and perhaps something might happen when we are together.]
[Ye Liufeng (Group Owner): So?]
[Li Changsheng: So next, we just wait for the Wan Ding God Domain to merge with the East Heaven Domain.]
[The Heavenly Emperors know that is the homeland of us Heavenly Mandated Protagonists and have already guaranteed they will not act against the East Heaven Domain.]
[Wang Xuanba: Oh? What else did you tell them?]
[Li Changsheng: Nothing much...]
[However, they are all very interested in the 'Golden Dragon Holy Son', the First Prodigy of our East Heaven Domain.]
[Especially after I said he might be the 'unique true fate', they felt even more that this unique true fate, who can surpass our nine destinies, is extremely important!]
[Speaking of which, does any of you know what Lin Sheng's current cultivation level is?]
