Chapter 10: The Birth of Divine Country (10K+)
Within the region where the Source Star is located, as long as there were worlds where the Prophet's legacy still existed, they all prophesied new information.
"I see two paths, destruction... submission..."
All Prophets saw two Overlords whose presence almost eclipsed the entire region's light—the immediate follow-up to their appearance was the destruction of worlds.
Countless worlds either faced destruction or submission.
Prophets were extremely important in any world, and once the message spread, it caused an uproar.
Submission or destruction?
What kind of choice was this?
Not a single world wanted an extra mountain on its head, let alone accept destruction!
But the prophecies of the Prophets had hardly ever been wrong.
Throughout the ages, over thousands of years, every prophecy came true.
To confront this, Prophets from every world gathered to obtain more detailed information.
"Three Prophets, we are counting on you. We have just freed ourselves from the servitude of the Heavenly Dragon Empire; we absolutely cannot fall into the same situation!"
"Try to predict what exactly this so-called submission and destruction represent."
Worlds pooled all their efforts into prophesying, wanting to see exactly what was happening.
Why would the Prophets say such things?
What kind of existence were these two Overlords?
In the end, the Prophets did not disappoint and revealed two names.
"Lifeless True Saint and Daojun... These are the names of the two Overlords; they are peerless powerhouses, existences of the Ninth Realm!"
This was the result from worlds where the Prophet's legacy was sparse.
And for those where the Prophet's legacy was more intact, the information was more plentiful.
"Councilman, the names of the two Overlords are Lifeless True Saint and Daojun, they exist in the same region as us, each spanning across three worlds or planets. Their strength is incredibly terrifying; if they appear, our Federation might be destroyed in an instant."
"Spanning across three planets, the resource planets under our Federation alone number in the dozens..."
"Councilman, Overlords span across three Life Planets or worlds, and around each Life Planet, there are a multitude of resource planets or worlds. If we compare our situation to theirs, they are the Overlords of thousands, or even tens of thousands of planets." The Prophet could not help but smile bitterly; Overlords were called Overlords because of their unrivaled strength.
No matter how much or how little information was obtained, each world knew that in the near future they might face a might too formidable to withstand.
The powerhouses of those worlds could easily annihilate them.
To preserve the world they lived in, every world began taking action.
...
At this moment, Wang Sheng also received the information from the Prophets.
The Prophet's legacy had long been severed on the Source Star due to the Dynasty Dynasty, hence there had been no Prophets.
The Stargazing Valley lineage was once one of the Prophet's legacies. Unfortunately, it did not pass down the core elements.
However, with the devouring of two worlds, the legacies of the Prophets from those worlds were complete.
It was as if the Prophets had reemerged.
Of course, with the advent of the Planet Will, the role of Prophets had diminished greatly, and thus Wang Sheng had not paid it much heed.
But unexpectedly, this time they brought such news.
The message received on the Source Star was different.
"Daojun, the bringer of endless destruction, the Overlord spanning three worlds... It seems our two worlds have been exposed!"
Although the prophecy mentioned only one world, he did not believe that the Source Star would remain unnoticed, being an Overlord spanning three worlds just the same.
Other worlds likely had already received news about the Source Star.
"Sir, how should we handle this?" Huangtian reported the news, and naturally, he also knew of Daojun.
"How to handle it? Do whatever needs to be done, don't mind it. Even without this prophecy, the Overlord of the Chaotic Realm remains our greatest enemy."
Huangtian was taken aback, then understood the essence of the situation.
"Excuse me, Sir!"
Yes, their biggest enemy had always been the Chaotic Realm, with or without the prophecy.
They only needed to proceed systematically with their development.
After Huangtian left, Wang Sheng looked into the void.
"Surely the Chaotic Realm must also be aware of the Source Star's existence by now?"
Indeed, reality matched his expectations.
Daojun was already aware of the Lifeless True Saint's existence and knew that the Source Star had become an Overlord.
However, his attitude was the same as Wang Sheng's; they were the greatest enemies regardless of the prophecy.
Of course, Daojun was surprised that the Source Star spanned across three worlds.
After all, decades ago, the Source Star was still called World No.1, even having been enslaved by them for a period.
"Truly a power of the Ninth Realm..."
Both Overlord worlds remained quite calm, not altering their plans because of the prophecy.
Other worlds did not share this composure.
The two Overlord worlds were like the Sword of Damocles above their heads, which could fall at any moment.
They could only strive to strengthen themselves as quickly as possible.
To stabilize their own position in the impending storm.
And for the powerful worlds, they knew that without the Ninth Realm, everything was in vain.
Only with the emergence of someone from the Ninth Realm, would there truly be hope.
...
Wang Sheng continued his routine cultivation, advancing the transformation of his Primordial Spirit and body.
The Virtual World was unfolding on the Heavenly Saint Star, and the Pure Spiritual Power and Life Essence Qi he currently had were more than enough for his daily cultivation consumption, with some left over to expand the Virtual World.
This was the perfect state.
But he was also aware that as his cultivation level rose, three worlds would not suffice eventually.
Of course, at the current rate, there was actually no need to rush.
By the time his cultivation required more than what three worlds could supply, Yu Kong would have long been able to wield his abilities, seeking out the next world.
