CHAPTER 748: 180, THE TRUTH_2

"""

In the past, among the Human Clan, only the Second Prince pursued the Ultimate Path.

Moreover, at that time the extent to which the Human Clan refined Divine Power was generally not high.

No wonder they could only stalemate with the Demon Clan.

Most of the Demon Gods of the Demon Clan could merely initially refine Divine Power, only their Ancestors could possibly cultivate a Divine Body.

The Demon Clan had a Heavenly Demon Ancestor who mastered part of the Ultimate Path, while the Human Clan had a Human Emperor, and the Human Ancestor was also strong enough, which is why they reached a balanced situation with the Demon Clan.

"Did the Divine Emperor find the Human Ancestor first?" Lin Yue asked.

"Yes."

The Second Prince nodded and said, "The Great Yu Imperial Family had always been secretly preparing two plans, one was to awaken the Human Ancestor, and the other was to worship those Ancient Gods who might assist the Human Clan, though it was perilous, it indeed summoned the Divine Emperor."

"At that time, the Taichu Divine Power within the Human Ancestor was drawn out, and it took a long time to break free from the influence of the Taichu and awaken. After waking up, they found the Great Yu Imperial Family secretly worshiping the Ancient Gods, just as they were about to stop when the Divine Emperor projected his thoughts."

"After speaking with the Human Ancestor, the Divine Emperor told the Human Ancestor that he saw a great catastrophe that could extinguish the Human Clan, with its root on Xiahou Shou. Afterwards, the Divine Emperor reincarnated as a member of the Human Clan, and manipulated the cycle of birth and rebirth, making the Human Ancestor reincarnate as the first in the lineage of Xiahong."

The Second Prince sighed and said, "What happened afterwards, you already know."

Lin Yue nodded in realization.

This was the origin of the Great Yong and Xiahong Imperial Family.

"After the Human Ancestor reincarnated, he deliberately stayed at the Four Symbols Heaven Barrier for a full hundred years?" Lin Yue asked in confusion, "Why is that?"

"It was just a disguise."

The Second Prince shook his head and said, "Initially, he did not awaken his memories, nor did the Divine Emperor pay attention to him, only saying that he would provide Divine Power once he achieved Harmonization. Initially, his cultivation was indeed very difficult, but within just a dozen years after joining the Ancestor Hall, he already reached Proving Stage. The Main Hall Master was also helping him hide from the Demon Clan, avoiding alerting them and stirring up trouble."

He chuckled and said, "When the Demon Clan attacked, he already had the strength of a Son of God, and with the Dominator Divine Artifact given by the Divine Emperor, his power was not inferior to the Heavenly Demon Ancestor, which gave the Demon Clan a great loss."

"Dominator Divine Artifact?" Lin Yue was taken aback, looked at the Crown Prince, and said, "Does the Crown Prince have a Dominator Divine Artifact? Since you have a Dominator Divine Artifact, why are you still suppressed by the Heavenly Demon Ancestor?"

The Crown Prince said expressionlessly, "I cannot use it."

"The current Crown Prince cannot use the Dominator Divine Artifact either." The Second Prince shook his head and said, "He can’t even refine Divine Power, so how could he wield the Dominator Divine Artifact?"

"Why?" Lin Yue asked in confusion.

"The Demon Clan dared to attack the Great Yong precisely because the Demon Clan knows this."

The Second Prince explained, "The Crown Prince can harness Heavenly Dao’s mighty power because he has become a son of the Heavenly Dao, already merged with the Heavenly Dao Will, but within the Divine Power lies the will of the Ancient Gods, which is conflicting with the two. Once he becomes a son of the Heavenly Dao, it’s impossible to refine Divine Power."

Only then did Lin Yue understand.

No wonder the Crown Prince mastered part of the Ultimate Path, despite being the Martial God, still lagged somewhat behind the Fourth Prince.

Was it because he had not refined Divine Power?

It’s just...

"The Human Ancestor should have two Primordial Spirits, right?" Lin Yue asked softly.

"That’s correct." The Second Prince glanced at the Crown Prince and said, "But the other Primordial Spirit has already shattered into several pieces, and the fragment in the Proving Stage is even missing."

He shook his head, saying, "If you ever get a chance to find all the fragments of the soul, you can also help the Great Yong."

Lin Yue did not ask further questions.

Because the Crown Prince’s expression was so indifferent, it made him instinctively feel a chill within his heart.

He also knew.

These two were probably aware that the Divine Soul of the Human Ancestor was with him.

It’s just...

Some things really shouldn’t be fully spoken.

"However, I still do not understand something."

Lin Yue questioned, "Second Brother does not have the Dominator Divine Artifact, whereas the Crown Prince does, why is it not Second Brother who became the son of the Heavenly Dao?"

The Second Prince chuckled and said, "I also think... being the son of the Heavenly Dao might be easier, but everyone has things they must do, I too have more significant responsibilities."

Lin Yue pondered for a moment and asked, "Is what you mentioned referring to... dispelling the Eternal Night?"

The Crown Prince earlier mentioned that after shrinking the Great Yong Divine Formation to the Jingzhou area, even the Second Prince would find it easier.

"Sort of." The Second Prince shook his head slightly and said, "Ultimately, it’s using the Divine Array to achieve this, even if it exhausts my Heart Power, the territory of the Great Yong Kingdom would only be this large."

Lin Yue murmured, "I thought it was the Divine Emperor who banished the Eternal Night..."

"He doesn’t care if the Human Clan lives in darkness or light."

The Second Prince laughed silently and said, "I have been trying to expel the Eternal Night for quite some time already, just the scope was still very limited, but with such a nearly natural formation like the Great Yong Divine Formation, I can expel the Eternal Night on a larger scale."

Lin Yue remained silent for a moment, questioning, "Still, why did Second Brother want to dispel the Eternal Night?"

"Of course, it’s not just because of my fondness for sunshine."

The Second Prince chuckled and said, "The Human Clan opposes the Eternal Night, cultivators were few in the past also because the Eternal Night entangled with the Essence of Heaven and Earth, making both cultivation and comprehension of the Heaven and Earth Law difficult for the Human Clan. However, if the Eternal Night is expelled, they can cultivate normally."

Lin Yue realized.

No wonder there were so many more Human Clan experts in Great Yong than in the past.

If it were just due to peace, without any loss, it wouldn’t have been quite so. Not everyone could enter a chance treasure land like Beiyuan Mountain.

Now it seemed, it was also due to the expulsion of the Eternal Night.

The Second Prince...

This Human Emperor, truly astonishing in his sacrifices for the Human Clan.

"Is there anything else you wish to ask?"

The Second Prince said, "Aside from the most critical secrets, to avoid the Taichu’s awareness once you return, you may ask about anything else, although... don’t be too pessimistic, even if the Ancient World has no hope, you may still have a chance to reconstruct the Divine Soul."

Lin Yue fell silent.

He knew that the Second Prince’s willingness to patiently answer so much was because he understood... the hope to reconstruct the Divine Soul was very slim.

Xiahou Shou’s process of reconstructing the Divine Soul was simply unreplicable.

First of all, the Key of the Ancient is in the hands of the Demon Clan, yet no one knows where it currently is.

Secondly, even if he obtained the Key of the Ancient, he wouldn’t dare to enter the Ancient World.

Xiahou Shou was favored by a god in the Ancient World, and that was during the Harmonization Stage, even many Gods of that world would receive the Ancient Master’s favor.

He wonders if, after Xiahou Shou’s Proving, he already received the Ancient Master’s favor?

If he dared to enter the Ancient World, he might be discovered by the Ancient Master as soon as he entered. At that time, discovering the aura of Xiahou Shou within his Divine Soul would definitely not be concealed from the Ancient Master, and who knows what would happen then?

Ultimately, he did not possess the true Taichu Divine Power, even if he wished to imitate Xiahou Shou’s method, it would not be feasible.

The plan regarding the Ancient World could almost be ruled out.

From Xiahou Shou’s memories, however, he learned that there was a Reincarnation Fruit with the Heavenly Demon Ancestor.

But since the Heavenly Demon Ancestor personally guards the Reincarnation Fruit, it could be abandoned.

Therefore...

Lin Yue felt deeply helpless.

"Is there any trace of the Reincarnation Fruit?"

The Second Prince said, "The Demon Clan is powerful, they can search freely in the Eternal Night, so they have a greater chance of finding the Reincarnation Fruit. After Xiahou Shou sided with the Demon Clan, he should have collected it, right?"

Lin Yue hesitated for a moment, then shook his head, "There is a Reincarnation Fruit, yet it is with the Heavenly Demon Ancestor."

"With the Heavenly Demon Ancestor?" The Second Prince shook his head slightly and sighed, "Then it’s very troublesome, the Reincarnation Fruit is unique, even if it’s used, it would take ten thousand years to grow a new one."

Lin Yue nodded slightly, saying, "In that case, I can only go to the Yanfu World."

In a strange, unknown world belonging to the Yanfu Lord, he was unsure what might happen.

The Second Prince mused for a moment and said, "No need to rush to conclusions, didn’t you say the Star Lord used to be from the Ancient World? You could ask him."

Lin Yue was slightly startled, then nodded gently.

"Besides, going to the Yanfu World might not be a bad thing either."

The Second Prince softly said, "I heard the Divine Emperor say, the three sons of the Taichu have a rather delicate relationship, the Yanfu Lord and the Ancient Master are adversaries, while the Other Shore Lord is detached and neutral. Hence, in the Ancient Times, the factions were largely conflicts between the Yanfu Lord and the Ancient Master, with the Other Shore Lord remaining uninvolved."

He looked at Lin Yue, "You come from the Other Shore, and you may master the Ultimate Path, if you show goodwill to the Yanfu Lord, the Yanfu Lord might be willing to help you!"
