Divine Ancestor, are you implying that if I were to use the Sky Wielding Crystal, I would not have a chance to become the Taiyi Yuan Venerate? said Luo Yunyang while putting on an anxious facade. Contrary to this expression, he was calm and collected deep down.

It was only normal that he appeared anxious. Appearing unperturbed would seem abnormal.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and everyone else was beaming. Even though Luo Yunyang currently possessed the Sky Wielding Crystal, his inability to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate meant that the rest of them still stood a chance.

Although it was not certain who would get the opportunity, they still had a much better chance of becoming a Taiyi Yuan Venerate than if Luo Yunyang used it straight away.

Even though many of them were rejoicing inwardly, they also knew it was important not to show their joy at this critical juncture. Otherwise

Well, it would not be impossible for you to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate if you used the Sky Wielding Crystal. However, it would take you a hard grind of about a hundred Yuanhuis, the Human Races Divine Ancestor told Luo Yunyang after some hesitation.

One hundred Yuanhuis was the equivalent of ten million years. From the standpoint of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, ten million years was not a long time.

However, while a great calamity was imminent, ten million years of seclusion would be a big joke for the Human Race.

Luo Yunyang was completely immersed in his act. Although there was disappointment all over his face, in just a short moment, it seemed as though he had thought this through. He confidently replied, Divine Ancestor, I am willing to do this. Ten million years may be quite a long time, but I can endure this. As long as I end up attaining the Taiyi Yuan Venerate, everything else will be worth it.

There was a ringing decisiveness in Luo Yunyangs reply.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, the Southwest Heavenly Ruler, and the others instantly felt the shamelessness in Luo Yunyang when he said this.

Anybody there could endure ten million years easily. The most important thing was who would actually be the one to use the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Otherwise, what business of theirs would it be if he actually chose to lock himself up in seclusion for ten million years?

Master, I think that it would be extremely inappropriate for the Human Ruler to isolate himself for ten million years at this critical juncture. After all, the great war is about to begin. If the Human Ruler is in seclusion during the war, our fighting strength will suffer a significant loss.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky had been really unwilling to say this all along, but now that things had reached this development, he decided to say what he could to salvage the situation.

He went on to confidently say, As your subordinate, I plead both the Divine Ancestor and the Human Ruler to make a decision based on prioritizing the Human Race.

Senior Brother is right. The Human Ruler has a massive responsibility. Even if he went into seclusion for a thousand years, let alone ten million years, it would be a great loss for the Human Race.

Human Ruler, the entire Human Race cannot survive a single day without you! The Southwest Heavenly Emperor chimed in.

The other four heavenly rulers also chipped in to back him up and show the importance of having Luo Yunyang around, as well as their disapproval of Luo Yunyang secluding himself.

Luo Yunyang smirked as he glanced at the fake selfless behavior displayed by the Heavenly Rulers.

These fellas were really thick-skinned indeed. They had managed to decry all the initial praise for them just moments ago.

I can resign from my position as the Human Ruler. From my point of view, Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky is the most suitable person to replace me. Not only does he have a high cultivation base, but he was once the hall master of Hong Meng Sacred Hall. He can definitely improve the unity of the Human Race.

Although he had already made up his mind, Luo Yunyang just wanted to give Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky a taste of his own medicine.

While Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky had very much wanted to be the Human Ruler in the past, he didnt want this position now, even if Luo Yunyang were to abdicate his position for him.

What was the Human Ruler? He was merely a signboard.

As long as one was able to become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, one would have an equivalent status to the Human Races Divine Ancestor despite still being weaker in terms of power.

In that case, would the position of the Human Ruler matter anymore? Thus, Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky proclaimed loudly, The position of the Human Ruler carries grave responsibility. If I had been given the position before, I might have agreed to it.

However, right now, it is Your Majesty Luo Yunyang who helms this position. It could be even said that you are the core of the 36 cosmoses and Tianding Realm. This sudden change might even lead to discontentment and turmoil, which can be detrimental to the hard-earned unity of the Human Race.

These words and pretense made Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky extremely uncomfortable. However, he felt as though he still had to keep up this act.

After all, what was this discomfort compared to attaining the Taiyi Yuan Venerate status? The Southwest Heavenly Ruler, who had always been close buddies with Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, stayed silent at this point.

While he had close relations to Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, he secretly did not want to lose the Taiyi Yuan Venerate status to someone else.

The Human Races Divine Ancestor sighed. It was clear that he wasnt very comfortable with what his disciple had said.

After all, his disciples were also Yuan Venerates in their own right. Seeing them unite against Luo Yunyang made him feel some sort of discomfort.

Yunyang, while we may have annihilated the Mysterious Underworld Race and the Divine Incarcerate Race, the great war is still impending. The Human Race will need as much fighting power as it can have to tide over this difficult period. The Sky Wielding Crystal should be yours, and I would surely have supported you in the past, said the Human Races Divine Ancestor solemnly.

However, the Human Race cannot afford to wait ten million years. In exchange, I am willing to grant you three wishes. How do three wishes in exchange for the Sky Wielding Crystal sound?

The three wishes granted by the Human Races Divine Ancestor were not wishes meant to be taken lightly.

Since Luo Yunyang had already made the internal decision not to use the Sky Wielding Crystal, he was definitely ready to exchange it for some benefits instead. The three wishes offered by the Human Races Divine Ancestor were extremely generous.

He looked at Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and everyone else before smiling and saying, Divine Ancestor, since you have personally made this request, it would be unbecoming of me not to comply with your request. However, I have one more small request I hope you will also agree to.

The Human Races Divine Ancestor looked at Luo Yunyang and smiled, as though he knew what was coming. Go on.

There are six half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerates in the Human Race. Am I correct to believe that whoever receives the Sky Wielding Crystal will become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate?

Luo Yunyang made eye contact with Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and smiled. This smile sent shudders down the spine of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky.

Luo Yunyang was definitely up to no good!

The Human Races Divine Ancestor had a bad feeling as he replied, That is correct. Whoever receives this will become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate.

In that case, I am willing to help the Divine Ancestor share his burden! exclaimed Luo Yunyang as he clasped his hands respectfully and faced the Human Races Divine Ancestor.

There was a glimmer in the eyes of the Human Races Divine Ancestor. He immediately understood what Luo Yunyang was getting at.

He wanted to have the right to decide how the Sky Wielding Crystal would be divided!

As the person at the helm of the Human Race, the Human Races Divine Ancestor definitely had the right to decide what he wanted to do. However, dividing the Sky Wielding Crystal amongst his six disciples would be a great headache for him.

After all, the Sky Wielding Crystal was priceless. Any one of his disciples would hope for sure that they would receive the Sky Wielding Crystal.

If he were to bestow the Sky Wielding Crystal on any of his disciples, he would end up only satisfying one and angering the remaining five.

One could even say that the remaining five disciples would feel never-ending anger for the Divine Ancestor. Therefore, it was definitely great that Luo Yunyang had volunteered to help with this difficult job.

He knew that, during this process, Luo Yunyang would also benefit greatly. However, Luo Yunyang wouldnt benefit as much as he would.

Very well! Since the Sky Wielding Crystal was acquired by you, I grant you the right to decide how it should be distributed, even though you cant use it, the Human Races Divine Ancestor said solemnly.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky looked extremely unhappy. Although the other six Heavenly Rulers werent really close to Luo Yunyang, he was the one on the worst terms with him.

Should Luo Yunyang decide not to give the Sky Wielding Crystal to him, he would definitely have a tougher future.

Divine Ancestor, this How

Say no more. I have already made a decision! the Human Races Divine Ancestor said gravely without even allowing Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky to finish.

Although his actions might anger Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky slightly, angering one of his disciples was still better than angering five of them.

Furthermore, now that Luo Yunyang would decide, Yuan Venerate Flowing Skys anger would be directed at Luo Yunyang.

If you have nothing else to say, you may take your leave, the Human Races Divine Ancestor said, not wanting to entertain his disciples any further.

Luo Yunyang had been initially preparing to leave. However, just as he was about to move, he had a sudden thought and turned to face the Human Races Divine Ancestor.

Since the Human Races Divine Ancestor had already agreed to help Luo Yunyang with three of his wishes, it would be hard for him to decline now that Luo Yunyang had asked.

Just speak your mind, Human Ruler. I will do what I can to help! said the Human Races Divine Ancestor. His attitude toward Luo Yunyang seemed way more cordial. It seemed as though he owed Luo Yunyang a favor.

As your subordinate, I wish that Your Honor would grant me a favor. A big one at that.

Luo Yunyang began to talk about his mother, sister, and sons plight, in hopes that the Human Races Divine Ancestor would be able to help him search for them.

At first, the Human Races Divine Ancestor had not expected much, as there was too great a difference between the Taiyi Yuan Venerate and the Taichu Yuan Venerate.

He could derive whatever he wanted, no matter what it was.

However, just as the Human Races Divine Ancestor tried to derive the whereabouts of Luo Yunyangs mother and family, he frowned. After a moment, he said, I am not sure exactly where your mother and child are. What I can do is make a simulation and send you to where they were last seen a year ago. Are you willing to go?
