Chapter 1263 - The Only Hope (1/2)
Yun Che raised his head and steadily looked at Jasmine for a long while. Yet, he discovered that she had been absolutely serious when she had said those words, “This is of course the most ideal situation, the one that I dream about even. But… this is the God Realm. It is not the Profound Sky Continent or the Illusory Demon Realm, so how could I…”
“No, if it’s you, it’s possible. In fact, only you possess such a possibility!” Jasmine interrupted him, her starry eyes rippled with red light as she stared straight at him, every word proceeding from her mouth shaking his heart, “You possess something unique and unmatched in this entire universe, the legacy of a Creation God, so you need to know one thing, and that is… that your existence is something that stands above every other living being in this universe!”
Yun Che, “...”
“When you started to cultivate the profound way with me again when you were sixteen, did you ever think that you would one day be able to contend against the Four Sacred Grounds? Not only did you end up conquering the entire continent in the end, but you did it in a short eight years!”
“When you arrived in the God Realm, your profound strength had not even reached the divine way. But, in a mere three years of time, you have surpassed all of the geniuses in the Eastern Divine Region, even those who were crowned as the ‘God Children’, as you rose to the top during the Profound God Convention.”
“Let’s put aside for now whether the Heavenly Mystery Realm’s ‘True God prophecy’ will be realized or not. Because you possess the inheritance of a Creation God, as long as the level of power is the same, you will be far superior to anyone else. You can beat people who have reached the Divine Spirit Realm when you are in the Divine Tribulation Realm and when you reached the Divine Spirit Realm, you could defeat the Luo Changsheng who had reached the Divine King Realm… This is a fact that you should be most clear about.”
“So if you can reach the limit of all humans—the Divine Master Realm, then no one under heaven, even if it is a god emperor or the Dragon Monarch himself, will be able to be your opponent. At that time, even if you do not really become a True God, it will be no different from being an actual ‘True God’ in this era.”
Jasmine looked directly at Yun Che as she said those earth shattering words. As long as his profound strength was at the same level, Yun Che was indeed far superior to other people. This also meant that his limit was bound to be far above the limits of other people as well. As such, Jasmine’s words were not just an empty fantasy…
But when Yun Che heard them, they sounded far too distant for him.
The Divine Master Realm was a realm that he was basically unable to even have any hopes for at the moment. It was a realm that he could not even gaze upon at his current stage.
Even if he were to one day reach that sort of level, it would definitely require a suitably long period of time… Given the current scenario, he would not be able to wait for that day to come and that was doubly so for the Blue Pole Star.
Yun Che just stood there in a daze for a long time but then he suddenly thought of something, “Are you talking about… the Eternal Heaven Pearl?”
“Right, I’m talking about the Eternal Heaven Pearl!” Jasmine nodded her head seriously, “You used eight years to become unrivalled in the Blue Star Pole and you used three years to compete for the top spot in the Profound God Convention. Then, if we were to give you three thousand years… Given everything you have right now, after you have cultivated in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm for three thousand years, even if you do not become strong enough to look down on all beings who live under the heavens, at the very least, you can ensure that you won’t be controlled by anyone else!”
“This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, and in fact, it is the only chance you have as of today!”
If a normal divine profound practitioner was given three thousand years, perhaps he would not be able to break through his next bottleneck.
But if an exceptional genius was given three thousand years, they would directly be a powerhouse who would shock the world… This was the reason why one thousand “heaven chosen children” were selected in the first place.
And if Yun Che was given three thousand years…
Even as the person who understood Yun Che the best in this world, Jasmine was not able to predict just how high Yun Che would climb.
Furthermore, this would be completely different from spending three thousand years in the real world. Within the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, this was not only three thousand years that was compressed into three years of actual time, it was also three thousand years where one would be absolutely safe.
There was a clear change in Yun Che’s gaze after that, yet he still shook his head, “I have actually thought of this matter before, but I don’t think it’s going to work. For the elites of the God Realm, three thousand years is indeed not a very long period of time, but my entire lifespan over both lives is only a few decades at most. So to suddenly isolate myself from the world for three thousand years… No matter how I think about it, it’s still a very dreadful thing.”
“I understand your worries,” Jasmine said calmly. “But you should also know that cultivation is something that disregards time. If you can empty your heart of all desires and focus completely on cultivating, then you will not feel the flow of time. In the God Realm, it’s common for several millennia to pass when a powerful person goes into isolation. But to them, it feels like a few short years or even just a few days.”
“Furthermore, the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm is a place that allows one to fully focus on cultivating. Those three thousand years will feel far shorter to your perception than you are imagining. It will not change your personality nor will it blur or distort the things in your memory that are incomparably important to you. The only thing that will change is that you will become incomparably strong whilst not realizing it.”
Cultivation was something that disregarded time, this was a point that Yun Che did indeed understand. Yet he still shook his head and let out a soft sigh as he spoke, “Before I arrived in the God Realm, I swore to Caiyi and the rest that I would return within five years, no matter what the result. Now, more than three years has passed. So if I enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, I will not be able to honor my promise and return within five years. I will not only be breaking a promise to them, but I will also cause them to think that something has happened to me in the God Realm….”
“Is breaking a promise you made to them once more important than their safety and your safety? Is it even more important than the life and death of the entire Blue Pole Star!?” Jasmine’s voice grew severe. She understood that all of this originated from Yun Che’s desperate pursuit of herself and so her heart and soul kept trembling ceaselessly, but her gaze and her voice grew even more cold and harsh, “Nine stage heavenly tribulation, True God prophecy, and the things about your body that even the god emperors and the Dragon Monarch can not understand or fathom… Could it be that you are truly not aware of what all of these things have brought to you?”
“During the Conferred God Battle in the Eternal Heaven God Realm, everyone will only display their benevolent side that they are proud of. But once you leave the site of the Conferred God Battle and you do not have enough ability to protect yourself, how exactly are you going to fend off the claws which will definitely extend toward you from the darkness!?”
“Without enough ability, what basis do you have to return within five years? Are you prepared to drag down the entire Blue Pole Star with you to your death!?”
Yun Che, “...”
Jasmine narrowed her eyes slightly as her gaze transformed into two ghostly blades that were sharp enough to pierce one’s heart and shot into Yun Che, “Right now, your fame is spreading throughout the entire God Realm. The Dragon Monarch declared that he wants to take you as his foster son, a whole gaggle of god emperors squabbled among themselves as they scrambled to extend their invitations towards you. This time, you were brought to the Star God Realm as an ‘honored guest’ as well, but the hidden danger that comes along with this boundless glory… is something that is tens of thousands of times more serious than you have sensed or can even imagine!”
“The danger is so great that even I am not able to protect you. So your only hope really is the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm… You must enter it!”
“...” Yun Che quietly listened to her words and even though his gaze was murky and unsteady, his expression did not change too much. He was a person who was extremely sensitive to “danger” and he had thought of every word that Jasmine had just said to him. Yet these words also forced him to recognize that he had still underestimated just how terrifying this danger was by far too much.
After a long while, he finally gave a light nod of his head and said, “Okay, I will listen to you.”
Jasmine’s brows smoothed by a fraction but a deep worry was still nestled in the depths of her eyes. Her voice became gentler as she said, “There are still two years from the promised time of return. These two years are two thousand years in the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm. If you feel that you are ready to face the danger that menaces you today after those ‘two thousand years’, then you can use the power of the Void Illusion Stone to force your way out of the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm and return to the Blue Pole Star. Then, at least you won’t break your promise.”
“If it’s not possible… then after two years, I will use a special method of sound transmission to let them know so they won’t need to worry needlessly, so you can be completely at ease.”
Jasmine’s words were calm but when she said them, her hands tensed up slightly.
Two years later…
The her at that time…
Yun Che did not detect Jasmine’s strange disposition, or perhaps it would be better to say that it did not even occur to him to be suspicious in the first place. His heart relaxed slightly as he nodded his head once more, “Alright! Since I have decided to enter the Eternal Heaven Divine Realm, then the three thousand years inside the Eternal Heaven Realm… is time that I definitely won’t waste.”
