Chapter 2059 - 1631: Divine Blood Baptism, The Beginning of Reforging the Divine Residence

Sure, here’s the English translation:

The brilliance of the sunlight enveloped the slender man’s figure, flickering with magnificence, yet still concealing his features from clear view...

Vaguely, one could sense a tangible gaze, as if it could traverse space, gazing into the distance...

"Heavenly Master?" Kneeling to the side, Lige observed this, lifting his head with an expression of suspicion and uncertainty, softly calling out.

"It has begun! That man who lay dormant for millions of years has finally, indeed taken action!" A faint voice, carrying the desolation of ages, resounded from the man’s mouth, "Who is it? Who possesses such skill to cleanse with Divine Blood?"

"Heavenly Master, what exactly are you saying?" Upon hearing this, Lige’s face grew even more bewildered. Ever since returning to the Heavenly Kingdom, Lige felt as though the Heavenly Master, despite his calm exterior, seemed to be waiting for something. However, as for what exactly this Heavenly Master was awaiting, Lige did not know and dared not speculate...

"The wheel of fate has already turned! After the Ancient Wilderness Times, in The Post-Ancient Era, a new Divine Residence is continuously honing and shaping, only, I do not believe, I do not believe that apart from the Ancestral God, anyone in this world could defy the rules set by the Ancestral God, creating gods against the heavens! I do not believe that the thing I could not accomplish, anyone else could!" His sharp gaze pierced through the clouds, as if trying to peer into everything, extending endlessly into the distance...

On Divine Mount Qilian, atop the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, the transparent air suddenly seemed to come to life, transforming into a vast mirror, reflecting all prying eyes from all directions...

The scorching sunlight, through the clouds, illuminated the surroundings of the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, yet, ultimately, it could not go further, unable to see all he wanted to see...

"Who is it? Who exactly is it?" In another realm, the towering figure atop the Japanese Sacrificial Tower suddenly turned restlessly, sunlight scorching around him, subtly carrying an aura of rampage. With a wave of his long sleeve, endless Divine Power, with a Color of Holy Gold, swept continuously into the clouds, while he let out a nearly hysterical roar filled with infinite resentment, "Who are you? My old acquaintance! I spent millions of years cultivating, yet could not unravel the Grand Dao of the Ancestral God, and you dare defy the Heavenly Dao’s taboo, attempting to reshape a Divine Residence in this Post-Ancient Era! Who are you exactly? In the Ancient Wilderness Times, you thwarted my major plans. In The Post-Ancient Era, what do you intend to do? Do you think reshaping a Divine Residence with flesh and blood body is such an easy task? How can a mortal body endure the baptism of Divine Blood? My arrogant old acquaintance, the things I cannot accomplish, you cannot expect to achieve! You cannot!"

The more he spoke, the more the sunlight-like brilliance around him intensified, and as the sunlight on his body grew brighter, the sunlight in the sky grew increasingly dim...

"Heavenly Master! Heavenly Master calm your anger! Heavenly Master calm your anger! If this continues, all living beings will be plunged into misery!"

Seeing this, Lige was utterly shocked, unable to suppress a cry of alarm, immediately prostrating on the ground, worshiping earnestly, "I beseech the Heavenly Master to have mercy on the people of the Heavenly Kingdom, do not let our Heavenly Kingdom’s living beings suffer! Heavenly Master calm your anger! Heavenly Master calm your anger..."

The response to Lige’s plea was silence!

As if eternal silence!

Just when Lige thought his plea would go unanswered, leading to suffocation under the pressure of the sunlight brilliance, a voice emerged from above him, coming from the man who had calmed his fury...

"My disciple Lige, this Endless Continent has finally reached a time of stormy encounters, join me in watching the tempest unfold..."

No longer the rampant fury from before, nor the rising anger, returning to a calm and vast demeanor, like a divine voice...

"Yes!" Upon seeing this, Lige’s anxious heart finally eased, unable to help bowing again, sincerely saying, "It is just that the Heavenly Master’s cultivation has reached the most crucial time, please close the Heavenly Eye, do not be distracted anymore. The Heavenly Master once said that in this catastrophe, we are destined to be the ultimate beneficiaries, right? Thus, we only need to watch quietly, why worry ourselves with speculation? Eventually, the truth of everything will surface, right?"

At this point, Lige paused, then carefully continued, "Including the Heavenly Master’s... old acquaintance..."

When Lige said this, she was not without fear deep inside, for she had always known that the identity of the Heavenly Master was a mystery, his origin and who he truly was remained unknown. She only knew that he was the Divine Residence of their Heavenly Kingdom, and ever since the birth of their Heavenly Kingdom, their Heavenly Master existed!

Eternal and long-lasting!

And her Heavenly Master, indifferent and seemingly devoid of emotion and desire, the only person who could stir a ripple within him was that "old acquaintance" he spoke of!

As for what that old acquaintance did to leave such a mark on the Heavenly Master, Lige did not know. She only knew that it was that old acquaintance that held back the Heavenly Master, so he dared not set foot on that continent!

Only mentioning that "old acquaintance" would cause the Heavenly Master’s emotions to fluctuate!

Lige knew the person who could so captivate her Heavenly Master was certainly not an ordinary person, certainly a person of great power...

But who this person was, even the Heavenly Master did not know, let alone Lige, who did not know the origins?

Lige could not dare to speculate...

"Indeed... the truth of everything will be revealed to the world! Everything will be settled! I have waited for a long time, how could I lose courage when the enemy is at the gates? Haha..." Upon hearing this, the man’s sunlight brilliance dimmed slightly, and his voice became as cool and indifferent as before once again, "My disciple Lige, you are right, I should close the Heavenly Eye, giving my old acquaintance a chance to act..."

As he spoke, the man waved his sleeve once more, and immediately, the magnificent sunlight surged from his hand, sweeping towards the sun in the heavens...

"The Heavenly Master overpraises..."

Lige bowed his head, to hear praise from the Heavenly Master was like listening to the most beautiful sound in the world to him!

Upon raising his head again, Lige saw the slender figure once again seated cross-legged on the cushion...

Looking up, glancing at the top of the Sacrificial Tower, at the sun returned to normal, Lige knew his Heavenly Master had already closed the Heavenly Eye...

It was only at such a time, Lige dared to gaze directly at the Heavenly Master’s back, filled with boundless admiration and yearning, endless adoration and love...

This man, like a Divine Residence, was in Lige’s heart, the true god!

He was her everything she believed in!

He was her heart!

Her love...

She was even willing to leave home and abandon everything for this man!

Even though, knowing all too well, in his eyes, she was just like any other insignificant human, a mere ant compared to all the citizens of the Heavenly Kingdom, yet, to be able to watch him from afar, for Lige, this was already the greatest happiness of her life...

Lige knew that her humble love was destined to remain unrequited, with no conclusion, yet she couldn’t control herself...

In the abyss of love, Lige’s eyes saw only this man!

Only everything about this man!

She would give everything for what this man wanted to do, even if it meant her life, she would do so willingly!

...

In the same slice of time, amidst the vast distance at Divine Mount Qilian, after the sun’s light returned to normal, after those prying eyes disappeared, the air over the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms turned back from a mirror-like state to its usual transparency...

And at this moment, Gu Changsheng, unconscious beneath the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, was suffering greatly even in her unconscious state...

Divine Blood baptism!

Even after Gu Changsheng ravaged the Crystal Mausoleum, she couldn’t find the Divine Blood engraved on that stone tablet, unbeknownst to her, it had long since merged into her body when she had been distracted by Ta You’s words!

The Divine Blood, already fully absorbed by her body, how could it possibly be found again by her?

Beyond Gu Changsheng, who else could have visited beneath the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms?

Everything, in the dark, was predestined!

It was as if an invisible hand had already laid out a chess game, waiting for certain destined people to advance step by step, according to the direction set on the chessboard...

"Pain..."

The pain from the boiling, warring blood, made Gu Changsheng feel trapped in prison, unbearably tormented, even in her unconscious state!

Her whole body felt as if it was enduring an execution by a thousand cuts, unable to break free, unable to escape, only to sink in further...

Gu Changsheng had never experienced such pain, this pain was about to destroy her proud belief, to destroy her very existence...

Is she really going to die?

Is this truly the end?

To die so inexplicably, to die without a name?

Gu Changsheng was not willing!

Not willing at all!

She still had so many things left undone, so many wishes unfulfilled...

Her parents still lay in that cold coffin, bones resting in silence...

Her son, her lover, her family were still waiting for her...

She couldn’t die!

She couldn’t die here!

The endless Holy Golden light, so pure it was suffocating, far surpassed the Holy Golden color on Manman Bug, continuously emanated from Gu Changsheng, filling the entire base of the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, misty and flowing...

The baptism of Divine Blood was originally something the mortal body of flesh could not endure!

Especially since this was the prelude to reshaping the Divine Residence?

Not allowed by Heaven, not permitted by the rules of the Grand Dao...

The pain of the Divine Blood baptism, coupled with the crushing pressure of the Dao’s rules, made Gu Changsheng feel as if she was in Avici Hell, enduring the world’s rarest torment...

Invisible shackles penetrated the barrier above the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, continually pursuing the Holy Golden glow on Gu Changsheng, carrying a fierce killing intent, as if about to destroy heaven and earth...

As these invisible shackles penetrated the barrier of the Broken Cliff of Ten Thousand Fathoms, beneath it, the Crystal Mausoleum instantly crumbled, turning to dust...
