22 Ye Yuyans Path (2/2)

”What does it want?” Nesilia couldn't help but ask Maven as confusion set on in her eyes.

”It wants a title for the poem. The heavens are judging his dao and his dao heart. If he answers wrong he will be devoured by the will of heaven.” Maven said with a slight bit of apprehension, he could still see Han Yi writhe in pain as the will of heaven devoured him entirely leaving no trace of his existence.

Ye Yuyan's eyes slowly opened and in them appeared a horrifying phenomenon. It was as if a universe started to form in his eyes and it lived out its entire course until its eventual destruction the moment his eyes were fully opened.

With the universe completely obliterated all that was left in Ye Yuyan's eyes was a sense of cold impartial judgment that viewed all things as equal.

”In my first life, my heart sought only truth, serenity, and peace. What I sought was the life of a scholar.” In front of Ye Yuyan manifested strange phenomena, a young man sat a pavilion with a cup of tea in front of him.

To his side was a beautiful woman dressed in a frilly white dress, she smiled coyly at Ye Yuyan who was sipping on his tea. At the top of the pavilion was a large sign with the character for truth and at the bottom was the clan name, Ye!

”Ye Clan, it can't be how could he be from the Ye clan?!?” Nesilia yelled with sheer disbelief, she knew of the Ye Clan. They were the preeminent bloodline king family in the eastern land if not the world!

”But as I braved adversity, I started to change and desired to return to the past. What I truly wanted was to control my fate.” The previous phenomena faded away as a new appeared, it was a young man in blood red robes.

His eyes shined with intense malice as a swirling river of blood gathered around him. Coiled around his right arm with a black snake, his every step inspired fear in all that saw him.

In front of the young man was a spectral old man who was fleeing with intense haste, the young man slowly followed behind with a demonic smirk blossoming from his lips.

”This...This...This!” Nesilia's surprise went through the roof as she watched this bloody young man hunt down the specter. The young man's body looked as though it was a condensation of supreme laws. She couldn't even estimate what his cultivation was.

”Now I stand bereft of my bonds. All that I desire is to walk my path to its final end.” With this final declaration from Ye Yuyan, the heaven's started to rumble as the scroll and quill came down and fused into the 3rd leaf.

This is the path he chose for himself a path he stepped onto to so long ago.

Suddenly the leaf became completely saturated as it shined with 1000 light spots and called to the heavens. The sky became filled with various colors as they each manifested into a silhouette.

The color blue became a demure young woman in a blue robe and gathered around her were dots of moonlight.

The color red manifested the young man in red robes, coiled around him was a serpent.

The metallic chrome color manifested a middle-aged man, his entire body was massive and muscular with a white tiger cowl on his head and a sword at his side.

From various colors together came about a Qilin, the Qilin left streams of lightning with its every move through the sky.

The color black formed a black turtle with a snake coming off the shell as if it were perfectly fused with it.

The color scarlet formed a vermillion bird that screeched to the heavens around it were flames that distorted reality.

The final one was the color green, which formed a massive tree that reached towards the firmament and released intense vital fluctuations.

The woman, man, and middle-aged man were separated to the rightmost side. At the middle was the Qilin and to the far most left was the turtle, vermillion bird, and great tree in that order.

”Roar!” The beasts roared together, and the humans joined screeching with their various powers. The sky was instantly lit up with intense qi fluctuations that seemed to transform the valley.

Ye Yuyan's cold eyes scanned over the various beings in the sky, these were the people that stood in his way, not Han Yi, Maven, or Yunshi.

Every one of these people was heralded as a Venerable Bearer!

”You shall be named, the Dao of Heavenly Secrets.” Ye Yuyan said as he wrote along the scroll in the leaf and the 3rd leaf was complete entirely. With that, the bearers disappeared and suddenly the sky changed as the final blockade of heaven came down.
