Chapter 1115 - 1020: Not of This Lifetime
Wish Power is actually quite similar in nature to Telekinesis and the Power of Faith; in fact, in certain respects, they are the same.
However, at different times and places, the terminology varies, but the Dao and principle remain almost identical.
While the Power of Faith arises from devotion to a particular individual, creating a form of Telekinesis, Wish Power, on the other hand, embodies the hope of all living beings, giving birth to a mysterious kind of Telekinesis.
In essence, they are nearly the same, although their types differ.
The Power of Faith targets an individual, while Wish Power represents the hope of sentient beings.
When the vast Wish Power of all sentient beings on the Ancient Emperor Continent converges, it forms a tremendously grand and powerful force, providing immense aid to both the Emperor Clan and the Three Supreme Sanctums.
Indeed, in some cases, possessing the Wish Power of sentient beings can even connect with the World Origin. Ancient Great Powers during the Era of Gods used Wish Power as a medium to communicate with the Emperor Realm Origin, thereby generating the power of rules.
This is a power that even ancient Great Powers regard with fear.
The Emperor Clan and the powerhouses of the Three Great Sacred Lands spoke in succession, making promises that rendered many silent. When that era finally arrives, only by relying on the Emperor Clan and the Three Supreme Sanctums can safety be assured.
Because once that era descends, the danger will be truly overwhelming.
It’s not just them; even the Heavenly King will find it difficult to protect themselves, for those who orchestrated the ancient stratagems are ancient Great Powers, having laid plans from the Era of Gods till now, wielding unfathomable means.
Di Wushuang sat on the Divine Throne, his purple hair cascading, his eyes filled with a peculiar and daunting purple hue, and he calmly said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I hope you will make a clear decision. My Emperor Clan does not necessarily have to rely on the Wish Power of sentient beings. However, using this opportunity will amplify our advantage, and if it doesn’t work out, we’ll rely on the Supreme Emperor Weapons for offense; no one can stop us."
He spoke simply and directly.
What is the Emperor Clan? It’s the undisputed sovereign force of the Ancient Emperor Realm throughout all eternity. Even during the most prosperous eras of the Era of Gods, no one could challenge its sovereign status; being the first dominant clan, even invaders of great power were hunted down, having an extremely strong foundation.
Indeed, as he said, even if the Emperor Clan doesn’t require the Wish Power of sentient beings, they have the capability; relying on Wish Power, however, would widen opportunities.
The Mystic Sky Saintess spoke, "Since the Emperor’s son believes that even without Wish Power it’s feasible, then please don’t vie for it, give us Three Great Sacred Lands the chance."
The Eternal Night Dark King also spoke, "True, the Emperor Clan possesses Supreme Emperor Weapons, fearless of everything, why should they rely on the Wish Power of sentient beings."
Di Wushuang replied, "If we have it, naturally it’s better; if not, my Emperor Clan won’t force it, and you are free to choose on your own."
After finishing speaking, he closed his eyes slightly, feigning sleep on the Divine Throne, his purple hair hanging low, radiating an eternal divine aura, seeming to compel all sentient beings to bow down.
Mystic Sky Saintess said, "Everyone, if you choose to support my Supreme Saint Palace, not only can you protect your own force during the change, but you can also receive abundant rewards, enabling the Heavenly Pride of your various clans to enter my Supreme Saint Palace for cultivation, obtaining top-tier guidance and training."
The conditions proposed by Eternal Night Dark King and Sun King were similar, leaving others present silent, uncertain of the best choice.
The Emperor Clan, with its deep foundation, has ancient Great Powers sealed within, and even a Supreme Emperor Weapon that can sweep through everything.
However, the Emperor Clan merely offers protection, while the other Three Great Sacred Lands, despite not having as deep a foundation, adequately protect each clan and offer generous rewards that tempt them.
But this place is ultimately Emperor Clan territory, and with all four Sacred Lands present here, they dare not rashly choose, avoiding offending any side beyond their current capacity to handle.
Only Ye Chen’s side lacks such concerns; perhaps the four forces haven’t even considered them, as they are but few without broad Wish Power, hence not considered.
Naturally, they also sensed that Ye Chen didn’t need their protection; this person is too strong, surely having other appropriate means.
Though Ye Chen knew, this invitation from the Emperor Clan wasn’t just about these things.
Eventually, it was Di Wushuang himself who invited all the prominent figures to leave, allowing them to return to their respective clans and consider carefully, vowing not to coerce them. Naturally, choosing the Emperor Clan is best; not choosing won’t bring trouble.
The various prominent figures from the Ancient Emperor Continent gradually departed, and once everyone had left the continent, Di Wushuang suddenly extended an invitation to Ye Chen, along with a few beloved friends, to meet privately on a Divine Island where certain matters needed discreet discussion.
Additionally, Sun King, Eternal Night Dark King, and Mystic Sky Saintess, the contemporary leaders of the three great forces, surprisingly joined the gathering.
This made Ye Chen frown, as others transmitted their voices to him worrying about deception.
However, Ye Chen shook his head and led a few others to a stop on an Emperor Clan Divine Island, which was as ethereal and transcendent as an Immortal Realm.
Beautiful women had already prepared unique wines and delicacies, along with fragrant immortal fruits placed upon it, while enchanting women danced gracefully in the distance, a pipa melody played, everything seemed exceptionally graceful.
Di Wushuang invited Ye Chen and a few others to stand at the edge of the Divine Island, overlooking the complex of the Emperor Clan Ancient Realm, resembling a miniature Wilderness of the Mythical Era.
The land housed various rare spirits, ancient bloodlines, Divine Birds extinct in the outside world, and other powerful ancient beasts imbued with Dragon Blood or Phoenix Blood, thriving on this ancient mythological continent.
All appeared dreamlike and illusory.
Ye Chen felt an uncanny sense, as if returning to the most glorious and star-studded ancient epoch in the world, gazing upon a fragment of it.
Di Wushuang said, "Combat Saint King, observe, this is my Emperor Clan Ancient Realm, constructed by my father through exceptional means, modeled after the genuine Mythical Era. During that era, the Ten Thousand Clan flourished, gods were rampant, Emperors and rulers coexisted, a splendid and magnificent epoch, strong to the extreme, incomparable to today’s sparkling era."
Ye Chen remained silent; he understood profoundly, having not only sensed through the alien supreme existence’s gaze, but his premonitions based on relics and ancient texts of later eras.
He softly replied, "That epoch was glorious, prosperous, yet still it faded, wound down, never to return."
Di Wushuang suddenly trembled, only after a long while did he turn to look at Ye Chen, saying, "Indeed, it passed, faded, wound down, yet—"
His voice suddenly rose thunderously, "But it is not beyond resurrection!"
"What do you mean!?"
Ye Chen looked at Di Wushuang, his gaze startling.
Di Wushuang said, "What once was is not unalterable. What exists may not be absolute truth, surprises abound, perhaps someday, those who have passed will reemerge in the world."
Saying this, he turned from Ye Chen, fixing his gaze on another—a person, Yii Wu.
He stared intensely at Yii Wu, saying, "You do not belong to this era!"
