Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 891: Black Halo

People flew out from the Sky God’s palace to find another Space Stone to make the Teleportation formation work.         

    

New Brilliance frowned at having to wait, but she had no choice. There were no Space Stones in the Sky God’s palace after all as they had all been used up by her master and her.     

The Sky God had now become a cripple, and so New Brilliance took up his mantle as the next Sky God. The transition of power should have been a massive fanfare with guests from all over the many worlds. It should have been a happy event.     

Unfortunately, times weren’t of the happy sort for New Brilliance. The only thing she cared about right now was finding Ning, and that was impossible at the moment when she was glued to the Sky God’s Palace thanks to the lack of Space Stones.     

She also needed to take care of her master. His body had been healed, but he was already of old age.     

He was after all one of the oldest beings amongst both humans and demons. He was said to have been alive hundreds of thousands of years ago when the war broke.     

So many people from that age had either died in the war, of old age, or to complications in cultivation. However, the old man had managed to survive through all of that.     

And yet, he was going to die in just a few years. New Brilliance wanted to be there for her master’s final days.     

She stayed with him a few years, long enough for her people to find another Space Stone to use.     

This one wasn’t as big as the last one, but that would be fine. They would search for more in the coming days and replace them when they could.     

For now, she wanted to find Ning and take her revenge no matter what.     

However, finding Ning proved harder than she could imagine. No one had seen him for the past few years. He had not been to any of the different worlds as their teleportation formations hadn’t accepted him.     

Ning was in hiding from what she could tell, and that made it hard for her to find him. Even her own seer couldn’t tell where he was.     

So, she decided to call upon the strongest seer in the whole world.      

Black Halo, also known as the Divination god.     

A middle-aged man with pure black hair walked into the now reformed palace hall. He arrived to see the new Sky God sitting on her throne.      

“You have arrived, Divination god,” New Brilliance spoke.     

“Yes, senior. But I would appreciate it if you simply call me Black Halo,” the man said.     

“You have been given the title of god. Be proud when you’re called one,” she said.     

“Not of my own volition, senior,” the man said. “Anyway, let us not argue about my name. What did you call me here for?”      

“I need you to help me find someone,” she said.     

“Finding someone? Not for divination?” the man was surprised. “Surely your seers could help you with that too.”     

“They can not,” she said. “They do not know the mysteries that you have already laid your eyes upon.”     

“I see. I shall do my best then,” he said. “Who is it that I need to find?”     

“The Godkiller, Sage of Ten Thousand treasures, the one who goes by the name Ning Ruogong,”  New Brilliance said.     

“I shall find him,” Black Halo said and sat down right there to divine Ning’s location.         𝑶𝑽𝑳xt.𝗰𝒐𝐦

    

After a few minutes, he opened his eyes. “He is in the Three Jewel world, senior.”     

New Brilliance’s eyes narrowed. “Three Jewel world? We already searched there,” she said.     

“He is there,” Black Halo said. “But I cannot confirm his exact location.”     

“Learning of the world he is in alone is enough. We can find him there and kill him,” she said.     

Black Halo closed his eyes for a few seconds before opening them back. “I’m not sure you can do so, senior. My visions of people that try to fight with him end with that fight,” he said. “You will die.”     

“What if I bring along 10 gods with me and we catch him off guard?” she asked.     

Black Halo closed his eyes. “You still die.”     

“How do I kill him then?” she asked.     

Black Halo divined the future of the one that the Sky God called a Godkiller, and when he looked for his death, he found nothing.     

“Hmm?” the man was surprised. He divined regarding Ning once more, but no matter what he saw, he could not find death in his future.     

He saw hundreds of thousands, even millions of years in the future. But even when everything else died, even when the sun went dark and the moon lost its silver shine, and when the many worlds were but simple pieces of forgotten rock, Ning would still remain.     

“Don’t treat him as a human, senior,” Black halo said. “Treat him as a force of nature. What happened here was a tragedy, but treat it the same as the mortals do to flood and drought. Humans, even gods, cannot fight against nature itself.”     

The Sky God was surprised to hear such judgment from the one that had the most knowledge of the future. She was angry that she wouldn’t be able to do anything, but she trusted the Divination god’s words more than anything.     

So, she swallowed her anger and decided to not pursue Ning. There was already a war going on that needed her attention, the last thing she needed to do was cause another tragedy by finding Ning.      

“Thank you for the information, Divination god,” she said. “You may leave.”     

Black Halo left the palace hall and New Brilliance went back to Old Brilliance to tell him what she had learned.     

“It’s fine. It was my fault to anger him,” the old man said. “But now we need to focus on the war. Humans will die soon if we don’t gain some sort of victory.”     

“What sort of victory are you talking about, master?” New Brilliance asked.     

Old Brilliance got close to her as he whispered, “You need to destroy the World Tree.”
