Chapter 634: Where the Lotus Seeds Are

Translator: CKtalon  Editor: CKtalon

The ancient existences all believed that they had a sliver of hope by relying on their various means, allowing them to luck out during the conflict. However, all of those hopes were dashed when they saw the Immortal Vanquishing Array! The Immortal Vanquishing Array was more threatening than the Fiend Ancestor.

The Fiend Ancestor was bent on taking the Lotus Seed of Fate from Qin Yun’s hand. “Ever since the Three Realms was born, only Zhurong possessed that Lotus Seed of Fate after all these years. I paid such a tremendous price before obtaining it. Yet, this Qin Yun was just traveling the Three Realms at random and he easily received one? This Lotus Seed of Fate should be mine. His Qingping Sword should also belong to me.”

The Fiend Ancestor’s destruction body had struck out with his palm previously, but the moment the Immortal Vanquishing Array appeared—

All he could do was retract his palm.

“None of you are leaving. Do you still have plans of continuing?” A black-haired elder appeared in the middle of the Immortal Vanquishing Array, beside Qin Yun. It was the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure’s real body.

“Master.” Qin Yun bowed.

The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure looked at Qin Yun and gave a terse response, but he looked extremely pleased. He said with a smile, “As I long said, having done so much, you have immense merit and the light from providence shines on you. As long as you wander around frequently, you might bump into a huge opportunity. See? Was I right?”

Qin Yun was taken aback.

That was really the case.

He had obtained the Lotus Seed of Fate very easily. All he did was listen to a quarrel between a master and disciple and learned of Cave Lord Venom Cloud’s enslavement of a large ground of cultivators. With a thought, he traveled to the Disarray Star Sea to rescue the cultivators and kill Cave Lord Venom Cloud. He was mildly intrigued by the Disarray Star Sea’s change that he came to take a cursory look, only to discover the spheroid rock.

The only obstruction was Red Essence, who was not really a significant obstruction. After all, he obtained it instantly.

He had easily obtained the best Connate Wonder in existence and Qin Yun felt that everything was like a dream to have something so rare fall into his lap.

His master had made him travel more frequently. With huge merit and the light from providence, it was easy to bump into opportunities.

That was really true!

For him to bump into such a huge opportunity and obtain the Lotus Seed of Fate, it could only be explained by having huge merit and the light from providence. Qin Yun knew very well that before a Lotus Seed of Fate appeared in the universe, its hidden location… was something no expert in the Three Realms could find. However, the Three Realms’ Heavenly Dao knew of it and it was most fair. As the saying goes, the Heavenly Dao pays its debts. Qin Yun had done so much; therefore, it had rewarded Qin Yun with such a huge opportunity.

Even the change in the Disarray Star Sea happened only after Qin Yun arrived in the Changyu Great World. It was indeed very coincidental.

“Due to the karmic process and how the Heavenly Dao pays its debts, it has given me such a huge opportunity because of all that I’ve done?” thought Qin Yun.

Many ideas came to Qin Yun because of a single sentence from his master.

The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure swept his gaze coldly around as he continued, “Do not blame me for being a bully. I’ll announce ahead of time that anyone who dares extend their hand will be killed!”

He had said that calmly, but the threat was real. Anyone who dared snatch the treasure would die!

For Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure to say it personally, it was evident that he had every intention to kill!

“Let’s go!”

“Even the Fiend Ancestor and the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure have interfered. It’s impossible for us to obtain the treasure.”

“This isn’t something the likes of us can partake in anyway.”

All their hopes were gone the moment the Immortal Vanquishing Array appeared. The ancient existences began to rapidly depart.

Red Essence and the shuddering Jiao Yong took the opportunity to leave together. If the Fiend Ancestor really fought the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure, perhaps any remnant blast would finish them.

“Numinous Treasure.” The Fiend Ancestor was indignant as he roared angrily, “How long have you been in the Heavenly Dao realm? What can this Lotus Seed of Fate do to help you in any way? Must you spoil my plans time and time again?”

“Black Lotus, your body is that of a black lotus. This Lotus Seed of Fate is of huge benefit to you. But the more it is so, the more we need to stop you,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure with a scoff. “To be honest, I yearn for you to be completely obliterated as soon as possible.”

“Can all of you kill me? If the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss isn’t destroyed, I’ll remain eternal,” said the Fiend Ancestor with an angry laugh.

“Isn’t your eagerness to become stronger because you are afraid of the future? It will not be long before you and I have to leave the Three Realms. When the time comes, you will no longer be the lord of the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure with a smile. “Without the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss as your crutch, our collective efforts against you will make taking you down easy.”

Qin Yun was alarmed when he heard that.

Master, the Fiend Ancestor, and the rest were leaving the Three Realms?

The Fiend Ancestor would no longer be the lord of the Tenebrous Fiend Abyss?

“Taking me down would be easy?” The Fiend Ancestor’s eyes were filled with maniacal rage. “What bold words, but all of you will lack the strength!”

“Don’t be in a hurry. When the day comes for us to leave the Three Realms, we shall see if that’s true.” The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure was extremely composed.

In terms of cultivation experience, Goddess Nüwa was the first to attain the Heavenly Dao realm. The Daoist Three Pure Ones and Buddhist Ancestor, Gautama, had attained the Heavenly Dao realm early on. As for the Fiend Ancestor, he was the latest. He lacked the necessary development in a relative manner.

“Fine. We shall wait and see.” After the Fiend Ancestor said that, he glared coldly at Qin Yun before turning to leave.

“To think the likes of you had thoughts of snatching something that my disciple holds?” The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure scoffed.

The moment his Immortal Vanquishing Array was unleashed, the Fiend Ancestor had no choice but to give up despite his unwillingness. Even two or three Heavenly Dao realm figures would not be confident of jointly cracking the Immortal Vanquishing Array, much less him alone. Therefore, the Fiend Ancestor had no choice but to leave without a fuss.

“Let’s go. Follow me back to Green Touring Palace.” The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure looked at Qin Yun.

“Yes, Master,” answered Qin Yun.

When the two vanished from the Disarray Star Sea, the disorientation zone no longer had the warped void. Everything returned to a calm.

Typical Skyimmortals and Skydemons did not know of the conflict that happened deep in the Disarray Star Sea. They had no idea that many ancient existences had appeared, with two Heavenly Dao realm existences appearing as well. And all of that was for the best Connate Wonder in the universe.

Green Touring Palace, main hall.

“Hahaha… The Heavenly Dao pays its debts. I have always been thinking that your storming of the twenty-six dominions was equivalent to nearly half of the Three Realms. You caused countless Small Worlds to escape the control of the fiends in all those dominions. Such huge merit should be met with huge opportunities!” The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure sat on a bed of clouds and said beaming. “Although you obtained the thousand-foot-long Stellar Stone previously, it was already in your homeworld and the fiends had repeatedly invaded it. You earned your huge merit after that happened, so your final finding of the Stellar Stone was because you were bent on resolving the root problem of your homeworld. You chose not to have a breakthrough in your Dharmic powers and chose to stay in a Small World. It was only right that you received the thousand-foot-long Stellar Stone.

“I always believed that you would obtain a huge opportunity by traveling the Three Realms.” The Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure smiled. “Yet, I never expected you to obtain this Lotus Seed of Fate.”

“Master, how should I use this Lotus Seed of Fate?” inquired Qin Yun.

Just the name alone sounded impressive.

But Qin Yun was quite flabbergasted. How was he to use it? How should he use it to provide him with the greatest help?

“There are many ways to use a Lotus Seed of Fate,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure with a smile. “There are a total of nine. The first was produced during the period of Chaos. It turned into Black Lotus, the present Fiend Ancestor.”

Qin Yun listened carefully. He had read something related to that before.

Who would have imagined that the Fiend Ancestor stemmed from a lotus seed?

“There have been quite a few Lotus Seeds of Fate that have appeared,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure. “The ones that have turned into life are the Fiend Ancestor and that monkey from Flowers and Fruit Mountain. That is why the Fiend Ancestor always wishes to refine that monkey. He even sneaked up on him once some time ago. Thankfully, Gautama was prepared.”

Qin Yun was alarmed.

Oh?

That monkey had such a staggering background? It was no wonder the Buddhists thought so highly of him.

“The Lotus Seed of Fate can be fused into one’s body, turning it into a part of a person’s body. The Divine Eye of Destruction on Black Lotus’s and Yang Jian’s glabellas were formed from the Lotus Seed of Fate. The might produced by those eyes is stupendous, far stronger than even some Connate Cardinal treasures. However, there is a disadvantage. Unless one is a at the perfected Great Dao realm, it is impossible to fully control the power of the Lotus Seed of Fate,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure. “The last time Patriarch Blood Sea tried so hard to kill Yang Jian was for his Divine Eye of Destruction. But you spoiled his plans! Therefore, the Fiend Ancestor hates you to the bone. Now, another Lotus Seed of Fate is in your hands.”

Qin Yun nodded. However, he had long offended the Fiend Ancestor.

“The Buddhists’ Merit Gold Lotus and Patriarch Blood Sea’s Negative Karma Fire Red Lotus were also a result of the Lotus Seed of Fate.

“God King Zhurong once had a Lotus Seed of Fate, but we have previously inferred some time ago that it has landed in Black Lotus’s hands.

“Speaking of which, eight of the nine Lotus Seeds of Fate have appeared,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure. “There is still one that is hiding somewhere in the Three Realms. It’s unknown when it will appear.

“Let’s not talk about this any further. The point is that it is indeed rare for you to obtain this Lotus Seed of Fate,” said the Heavenly Lord of Numinous Treasure with a smile. “As for how it should be used, I believe… you can use it to nurture your Intrinsic Flying Sword.”
