C137 (1/2)

Swish!

In the stone room, Cang Yunwu opened his eyes wide. In that instant, his eyes seemed to have become misty, and a sense of primal chaos was faintly discernible.

”You're awake …”

The Venerable Immortal Yang spoke in a faint voice. He stared at the misty look in Cang Yun's eyes and spoke with a dejected tone.

Because he knew that Cang Yun was that 'fated' person.

”Greetings, senior.”

Cang Yun gave a slight bow, and the hazy look in his eyes quickly disappeared, as if it was just an illusion.

”Congratulations on obtaining the acknowledgement of the heavens, but just as I said at the beginning, your calamity is about to begin …” Venerable Immortal Yang said indifferently.

Tribulation?

Cang Yun silently stood there with a hint of hesitation in his eyes that were as bright as the starry sky. The words of the Venerable Immortal Yang made him suddenly recall the mysterious creature that he had long forgotten.

The calamity was approaching. The only possible thing in this secret realm was that creature, right?

Cang Yun trembled. If that was the case, he did not have any confidence in being able to overcome this tribulation. Back then, he had personally experienced the power of this mysterious creature and felt that it was simply unstoppable.

It wasn't fear, but the difference in strength was too big. There was simply no chance of victory at all.

”Senior, may I ask how junior will be able to overcome this tribulation?”

Hence, Cang Yun could only turn to the Hierarch Xianyang for help. Although he had obtained the seed, he couldn't display its usefulness. The only person he could rely on was the Hierarch Xianyang.

”It seems like you know some of the current situation.” The eyes of the Venerable Immortal Yang flickered, as though he had seen through all of Cang Yun's thoughts.

He muttered, ”The 990,000 ancient rings will come again on the day their time is up. When they are born again, the world will come to …”

Ninety-nine thousand ancient rings?

Cang Yun's eyes lit up. This number reminded him of the rings on the milky-white seed from the start. Wasn't there a total of 99 rings?

When the cycle of rebirth begins, the world will soon come to an end.

Wasn't the first sentence related to that seed as well? Isn't the seed sprouting a symbol of regeneration?

Venerable Immortal Yang's words had allowed Cang Yun to understand one thing. It was that all of this seemed to be something 'there was a definite conclusion in the dark'.

The mysterious woman planted the seeds in the void, and after going through 99 cycles of the ages, the seeds once again regained their vitality. When it came to the 'fated one' Cang Yun, it was just like a drama that had already been arranged, everyone had their own roles to play, without a single mistake.

Everyone was playing their role for the sake of saying the last sentence, ”The world is coming!”

The moment this idea appeared, Cang Yun was shocked. Could fate really exist? There was a pair of large hands that could control the trajectory of everyone's lives?

If that was truly the case, it would simply be too frightening.

He saw through Cang Yun's thoughts and sighed, ”You're right. All of this is related to your seed, and the coming of a great world will definitely be accompanied by great tribulation. Once you obtain the seed, you will be the one facing great tribulation.

”And in this secret realm, you are about to face the first calamity.”

”I was entrusted by someone to help you through this tribulation, but now that I only have a remnant soul, I am truly powerless. Now, I can only turn my remaining strength into a sword and gift it to you. Whether or not you can survive this tribulation will depend on yourself …”
