Chapter 1075: The Earth-Shattering Secrets
Upon High Priest Gu Yu’s insistence, Lan Xingyang and Yu Feiyu reluctantly agreed to give the Heavenly Turtle Tribe priority if the secrets involved some sort of treasures or inheritances.
An Lin stood on the beach and became the focus of attention from both tribes.
The secrets that were about to be revealed concerned both of the major tribes of the West Sea, so many mighty figures naturally arrived on the scene.
The two High Priests, Gu Yu and Yu Feiyu, were the most proficient at star divination among everyone here, and both of them stared intently at the photographic crystal in An Lin’s hands with nervous expressions.
An Lin did not delay any longer. He tossed the photographic crystal into the sky. The special ancient text on Tian Chenji’s turtle sh.e.l.l was revealed for everyone to see on the beach.
In any case, he didn’t understand anything. This was just a pile of gibberish to him.
However, countless mighty figures began to let loose cries of surprise.
“My G.o.d! It’s the Sixfold Star Scripture!”
“Idiot! Don’t go embarra.s.sing yourself if you don’t know anything! This is already Ninefold Star Scripture!”
“I can’t understand this at all… I reckon only a High Priest extremely proficient in the art of star divination can decipher this!”
“It’s also going to be quite difficult to determine how to order and fuse the starry sky diagrams, sea diagrams, and textual diagrams.”
A bunch of Return to Void Stage mighty figures discussed spiritedly among themselves.
An Lin stood rooted to the spot with a dumbstruck expression on his face. They hadn’t even f*cking started deciphering the message, and he was already unable to understand what they were saying…
As expected, they were people from different worlds!
Yu Feiyu and Gu Yu had already unleashed divine dao enchantments and the starry sky, the ocean, and the ancient scripture flashed through their eyes at the same time as they quickly deciphered and translated the information.
These secrets were not something an average cultivator could decipher. Without a highly specific set of skills, even a Dao Integration Stage super mighty figure would be unable to decipher this information.
As such, the two of them were the only ones present that could decipher this information!
This was another threshold the former High Priests had set to further enhance confidentiality.
The atmosphere had reached a climax on the beach. Some of the Heavenly Turtle Tribe and Spirit Fish Clan cultivators were even shaking from excitement. Meanwhile, An Lin was looking between the two High Priests with a blank expression on his face.
Gu Yu was too busy deciphering the message to explain anything to An Lin.
In contrast, Yu Feiyu had a habit of recording keywords as she deciphered before relaying them to Lan Xingyang, Lan Xiaoni, and the other mermaids present of pure bloodline lineage.
After that, Lan Xiaoni would then surrept.i.tiously relay the information to An Lin.
An Lin could verify this information by comparing it with the information deciphered by Gu Yu to see if there were any fallacies.
Four hours later, both of the High Priests finished deciphering the information almost at the exact same time.
Yu Feiyu was a little slower, but she did have that habit of recording keywords, which slowed her down, so there really wasn’t much of a gap between the two of them.
After deciphering the information, expressions of astonishment appeared on both of their faces.
Boom!
The photographic crystal in the sky exploded into dust, which then drifted away in the wind.
Gu Yu was the one who had struck.
An Lin: “…”
Could this be counted as disposal of the evidence?
All of the mighty figures present were also a little dumbstruck.
Gu Yu and Yu Feiyu’s expressions had become extremely grave, and they both set up a new enchantment barrier to isolate themselves, along with core members of their tribes within.
All of the mighty figures from the two tribes were even more dumbstruck upon seeing this. They didn’t even have the f*cking right to listen to the secrets? Just what were the secrets?! The curiosity was killing them!
Outside the enchantment barrier, a bunch of mighty figures heaved forlorn sighs. They had been so excited, but they didn’t even have access to the deciphered information now.
“What could the secrets be?”
“How would I know?”
“Ahhh… Did anyone decipher any of that? Even if it’s just one sentence or one word! My curiosity is killing me!”
“I think it says something about the Spirit Fish Clan and Heavenly Turtle Tribe reproducing to produce two exceptional talents that will lead the two tribes to glory… Little Turtle Immortal, just agree to marry me!”
“F*ck off! Why don’t you take a p.i.s.s and look at your reflection in it? Get your disgusting arms and tail away from me!”
“Waah, what did the information say…”
Everyone outside of the enchantment wanted to gain access into the barrier, but everyone within the barrier was extremely nervous.
Yu Feiyu looked at Gu Yu. “Do you want to tell everyone, or should I do it?”
“Let Senior Gu Yu tell everyone!” An Lin interjected.
He had already heard Yu Feiyu’s edition…
None of the mighty figures within the enchantment barrier found An Lin’s interruption to be rude. After all, he was the one who had recovered the information in the first place, so everyone held him in extremely high regard.
Gu Yu nodded. “Then I’ll relay the information to everyone. However, before I do, I hope everyone can swear a dao heart vow first as a non-disclosure agreement!”
Everyone immediately swore their vows.
After a short while, Gu Yu began speaking with a grave expression.
“The information on Tian Chenji’s turtle sh.e.l.l is a secret that can shake the entire continent!”
All of the mighty figures became even more excited upon hearing this, and they all listened with rapt attention.
Gu Yu continued in a slow voice, “I trust everyone has some recollection of the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial from ancient times, right? This was a terrifying being that had almost destroyed the entire West Sea.”
Everyone nodded. Some of them had even partic.i.p.ated in that battle. Just the mention of the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial sent s.h.i.+vers running through their hearts.
This was a fiendcelestial that still gave some of them nightmares to this very day!
“The two former High Priests, Tian Chenji and Xi Haizi, almost had to sacrifice their lives to unleash the power of the divine tool, the Dead Sea G.o.d Sealing Spear, in order to slay the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial.”
This was common knowledge to all of the mighty figures present.
However, what it said next created a ma.s.sive stir within the enchantment barrier!
“After slaying the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial, Tian Chenji and Xi Haizi discovered a strange power tearing through s.p.a.ce and escaping to a different realm.
“They pursued that strange power through a pa.s.sageway between two worlds and arrived at an alien world. This was a world consisting of a boundless ocean. It was the world that the Ancient Heavenly Fiendcelestial had originated from.
“The two seniors didn’t think too much of this and continued to pursue that power in order to find the source of the power, as that was most likely the root cause of the entire calamity.
“In the end… they found a G.o.d! That’s right, this was not some self-proclaimed G.o.d. If there were actually G.o.ds in this world, then the two seniors were adamant that this being was one of them!”
Everyone let loose cries of surprise upon hearing this.
This was the first time they had heard about a being that was referred to as a G.o.d even by Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures.
Even G.o.ds of Creation wouldn’t have been referred to as such by the two former High Priests!
“The G.o.d took the strange power away and was initially quite angry. It wanted to kill Tian Chenji and Xi Haizi, but in the end, it made a deal with them.
“It said that it could bestow its paramount power to one of the exceptionally talented successors of either tribe, but in return, that successor had to do something for it… And that thing was to unite the West Sea and destroy the human race!”
“Gasp…”
Everyone drew a sharp intake of breath as they stared at Gu Yu with shock on their faces. Some of them had also turned to look at An Lin, upon which they were greeted by an expression of astonishment and befuddlement on An Lin’s face.
This was all of course all an act.
He had already been astonished before.
“What makes it think it can force us to do this?” A Heavenly Turtle Tribe mighty figure was unconvinced.
“It is a representative of the Heavenly Dao’s will!” Gu Yu continued to hand out bombsh.e.l.ls, “The Ancient Tai Chu Realm had fallen in the end due to its infinite expansion. A Heavenly Dao that is not sentient and not governed is bound to fail.
“As such, the Heavenly Dao of the Tai Chu Continent completed a certain transformation, which allowed it to gain a certain level of sentient will. It is one of the beings that regulate the Heavenly Dao.
“That G.o.d is actually the being responsible for regulating the ocean!”
