Chapter 1026: Existences Surpassing the Chaos (1/2)

Huo Shentong actually relaxed upon learning that Lu Yun had come to the chaos and allied with Qiu Luoyu to obtain the sixth dao palace.

“Heh, Qiu Luoyu, you can stay here forever now that you’ve come. You were lucky last time and got away, but this time with the four origin lands working together… you’re dead without a doubt unless you become a sovereign.”

But if he ascended, those from the six sacred palaces would come take him away and the otherkinds would lose their last remaining heavyweight.

When large numbers of connate demon gods betrayed the realms and swore fealty to the four origin sacred lands, those of the chaos hadn’t truly accepted them. They’d treated the connate demon gods as bait with which to hunt down otherkind, resulting in the eventual death of all demon gods that had defected to the chaos.

In the eyes of the chaos creatures, the realms were a filthy, sordid, and squalid region that was nothing more than an enormous manure pit. Those who lived in the realms were maggots burrowing through feces and didn’t have the right to live in the chaos.

Since the otherkind could enter that literal shit hole, they were also maggots and should be exterminated.

“What are the six sacred palaces thinking of, allowing those maggots to live?!” Huo Shentong expressed with sudden irritation. If the sovereigns within the six sacred palaces were willing to show their hand, they’d instantly turn even the realms to dust, not to mention some ragtag otherkind infesting their home.

The six sacred palaces of modern times weren’t the dao palaces of old—they were much, much stronger.

The dao palaces nurtured six chaos stars embodying laws of the highest order within the chaos, but the sacred palaces were completely born of those laws. They were the greatest breakthrough and achievements of the chaos creatures since the Great Devastation.

As they stood, the six sacred palaces absolutely possessed the ability to destroy their age-old enemy and ensure that no more worlds were born in the chaos.

But for some reason, the six sacred palaces refrained from doing so. In fact, they operated in opposition to this capability and collected all of the sovereigns that appeared in the chaos. No matter who they were or their status, anyone who resisted was met with swift retaliation and death.

“Please mind your words, young lord. The sacred palaces have their own considerations and are not to be discussed by the likes of you and I.” Huo Shentong’s subordinate jumped with surprise when he heard this.

Huo Shentong also realized that he’d said something he shouldn’t and sheepishly shut his mouth.

“Is there any word of the creation seed?” he asked after a moment of silence.

“None.” His servant shook his head. “We can only be certain that the seed is in that chaos current, but only those four know exactly where. However, two out of the four have died and the five elemental lands have taken the remaining two.”

“Any other news?” Huo Shentong wasn’t willing to give things up like this, but he wouldn’t have the chance to question the two survivors now that they were in the grasp of the elemental sacred lands.

“There’s gossip that mentions someone is breaking through in this chaos current—apparently a member of the sacred clan! The four also mentioned before that they were subordinates of the sacred clan.”

“The sacred clan?” Huo Shentong blinked before a smile curved his lips. “If the sacred clan is here, then we may have a chance yet…”

……

When Qiu Luoyu delivered the sixth dao palace and a chaos star without any affinity to Lu Yun’s hands, the little fox jumped up with excitement.

“Alright, I now proclaim that the creation seed is yours!” She leapt a meter into the air and bubbled with happiness.

“I, ah, what?” Qiu Luoyu blinked.

Dreamlike radiance flashed across their eyes as the little fox took human form again. However, this time she was the city-toppling handsome man who put women to shame with his good looks.
