Chapter 1450 Played by Fate (1/2)

“Master.” Zhou Yuan attempted to rise to his feet when he saw Cang Yuan suddenly appear.

Cang Yuan waved his hand to stop his disciple and seated himself at the tea table. He glanced towards the giant tower in the distance and smiled. “What a piece of work. Even those guys in the Omega Shrine were sighing in amazement at your boldness when they heard of it.”

Zhou Yuan had used countless resources from Cangxuan Heaven to build the Nine Nine Blessings Tower. More importantly, he had decisively extracted Genesis Qi from Cangxuan Heaven’s other regions and focused all of it into the tower. The boldness needed to make such a decision frightened even the numerous Saint experts.

Zhou Yuan helplessly said, “It was already in shambles anyways. Without such meticulous and careful planning, I don’t think there will be any chance for a comeback.”

Saint experts from the other heavens might be amazed by his work, but that was because they were not from Cangxuan Heaven. Hence, they did not properly understand what a tough spot Cangxuan Heaven was in.

Cang Yuan nodded and said, “It’s no problem. These aren’t ordinary times after all. Even prime sovereign Jin Luo and the others were in approval when they heard of this.”

Zhou Yuan chuckled. “I should thank the prime sovereigns for being so understanding.”

Although the Omega Shrine did not belong to any faction, they represented the will of the all-heaven numerous Saint experts. Moreover, they were the highest authority and power in the resistance against the Sacred Race. Hence, even though Zhou Yuan was the master of Cangxuan Heaven, he still had to respect the Omega Shrine’s opinions.

After a short conversation about the Blessings Tower, the place fell silent once more.

Zhou Yuan glanced at the calm-looking Yaoyao before he took a deep breath and asked Cang Yuan, “Master, is there news from the Omega Shrine?”

Prime sovereign Jin Luo and the others had brought along a wisp of the God Annihilation Curse Poison with them when they left with the goal of analyzing it with the Omega Shrine many Saint experts. Since a few months had passed since then, there should be some findings.

Cang Yuan nodded. “I believe Yaoyao has changed over this period?”

Zhou Yuan was silent for a few seconds before he replied, “She seems to have returned to when I first met her.”

Cang Yuan let out a bitter laugh as his voice grew heavy. “That’s because the God Annihilation Curse Poison is devouring the divinity in her body. When her divinity weakens, her human side will naturally rise up.”

Zhou Yuan’s eyes widened a little. So that’s why. To think that the God Annihilation Curse Poison was so terrifying that it could devour even divinity.

“There’s nothing to be surprised about. The Sacred God was gravely injured by the Ancestral Dragon’s will, and its power tortured him for thousands of years. However, because the Ancestral Dragon was already dead, it’s will power was not enough to destroy the Sacred God. As such, the Sacred God managed to endure and ultimately survived.

Yaoyao suddenly interjected, “In the end, he finally forced out the Ancestral Dragon’s will and fused it with the pain and darkness he had suffered for thousands of years, creating the God Annihilation Curse Poison. In a certain manner of speaking, the curse poison contains a twisted form of the Ancestral Dragon’s power.

“It’s a poison created specially for me.”

Yaoyao was the Third God that was born from the Ancestral Dragon’s will, and the Sacred God was using a twisted form of the Ancestral Dragon’s power against her.

Zhou Yuan asked in a somewhat soft and gloomy voice, as if afraid to know the answer, “I only want to know whether this poison will harm her in any other way besides devouring her divinity.”

Cang Yuan and Yaoyao fell silent.

“Don’t hide it from me!” There was a sliver of anger in his voice.

Cang Yuan glanced at Yaoyao and sighed softly. “The God Annihilation Curse Poison will gradually strengthen as it devours her divinity, while also corroding her body. Once it grows to a certain level, it will become a true threat towards Yaoyao.

“However, from what we’ve discovered, we believe that when the curse finally becomes a genuine threat to her, she will enter a self-preservation hibernation state.”

“A self-preservation hibernation state?” Zhou Yuan frowned slightly.

Cang Yuan had a complicated expression as he looked towards Zhou Yuan. “Simply put, she will lose control of her body, because the slumbering divinity within will fully awaken when it is threatened and expel the curse poison in order to protect itself.
