Translator: CKtalon Editor: CKtalon

Reversing the process of aging proved utterly impossible. The vital flames within a person could fade away, and restoring them was a task of immense difficulty.

Scant heavenly treasures existed in the world capable of reigniting those vital flames, yet they came at exorbitant prices or could only aid warriors of lowly realms.

For supreme powerhouses, vitality restoration was nearly unattainable—even Supremacies struggled with it, let alone Divine Lords or Godly Monarchs.

Old Snake stood apart from typical Godly Monarchs. As one of the eight primordial Godly Monarchs, his strength had vanished hundreds of millions of years ago—yet revival was now within reach?

This fate-altering miracle, defying the very laws of life and death, defied all description.

If such feats were possible, what staggering realm had Yi Yun's power attained?

A soul-shaking astonishment gripped everyone present. To reach a cultivation height where one dominated all laws and commanded the Heavenly Dao left them reeling in disbelief.

Without allowing the crowd a moment to process, Yi Yun turned to Huan Chenxue. “Miss Huan, back then at the Nine Li Magus Empire, I saw that the divine alchemist had refined for you the Fate Changing Pill. Back then, although I had obtained his heritage and was invited by the Nine Li Magus Empire to perfect their array, my cultivation level was unfortunately limited, preventing me from completing the Fate Changing Pill. I left behind my Fire Spirit in the Nine Li Magus Empire to maintain the array’s operations, and quite some time has passed since then.

Complex feelings swirled in Yi Yun's heart. Born from the Heretical God Fire Seed, Ling Xie’er had always relied heavily on him. When Yi Yun had saved her from the Sun Burial Sandsea, the little girl wished to stay by his side forever, but dire events in the Nine Li Magus Empire compelled him to leave her behind—beyond what he could manage then.

Deep guilt plagued Yi Yun for abandoning her alone in that array for so many years.

“Let me retrieve the Fate Changing Pill, as a way to complete the job Senior Divine Alchemist didn’t manage to accomplish.”

With those words, Yi Yun effortlessly ripped through space and vanished from sight.

The audience froze in shock. Was Yi Yun truly off to the Nine Li Magus Empire?

That distant land lay incredibly far from the Mirage Sea Realm, yet Yi Yun bridged the gap with a simple spatial tear...

Compared to reviving an ancient Godly Monarch's vitality, such a journey amounted to little.

While they still mulled over it, space tore open once more, and Yi Yun stepped forth. In his grasp shimmered a pill radiating brilliant rainbow light, as though it captured the endless essence of Heaven and Earth.

Perched upon Yi Yun’s shoulder was a fresh-faced young girl with rosy cheeks.

She appeared about nine or ten years old, her hair tied in twin buns. Her chubby, round face resembled a masterfully carved piece of pink jade, the picture of budding beauty.

Joy and grievance mingled on the girl's face that instant, tears brimming in her eyes.

“Brother Yi Yun!”

The young girl clung tightly to Yi Yun’s neck, overwhelmed with delight and sorrow.

“Xie’er, I’ve made you wait for so long. From this day forth, we won’t be separating. I’ve also found you a pet. Do you find it cute?”

Yi Yun produced the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm as he spoke. The unfortunate creature had been deep in slumber, already irritated at being roused. Learning it was now inexplicably a pet plunged it into deeper gloom, prompting a few protesting cries.

Yet Ling Xie’er instantly adored the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm. She scooped up the plump little fellow with glee.

“Wow, it’s really cute. What’s your name?”

A puzzled expression crossed the Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm's face, but it tolerated Ling Xie’er’s embrace.

“Xie’er, go to the God Advent Tower first. I still have things to deal with. Once everything is done, I’ll bring you to a brand new world.”

“Alright.”

Ling Xie’er nodded meekly. She sensed Yi Yun commanded everyone's focus.

Her tiny frame flickered as she slipped into the God Advent Tower, Nine Transformations Celestial Silkworm in tow. Now, all gazes fixed on the pill in Yi Yun’s hand.

Fate Changing Pill!

Huan Chenxue’s true origins eluded most, though suspicions lingered. Everyone in the Sinkhole viewed her as a simple mortal, yet which mortal could endure for eons, forge a Land of Hope, and claim ownership of it?

Yi Yun’s words revealed that Huan Chenxue too was an ancient supreme existence, stripped of her powers by devastating wounds.

Huan Chenxue gazed at the Fate Changing Pill held by Yi Yun and inhaled deeply. She hadn't anticipated the divine pill manifesting abruptly in Yi Yun's grasp, refined in mere moments. This was a feat beyond even the divine alchemist, who couldn't succeed despite the Nine Li Magus Empire sustaining a Herb Nurturing Array for hundreds of millions of years, consuming endless Heaven Earth essence.

“What realm has your cultivation reached?” Huan Chenxue inquired.

Yi Yun shook his head. “I’m not certain myself. Perhaps it lies between comprehending the Heavenly Dao laws and forging one's own Heavenly Dao laws...”

Forging one's own Heavenly Dao laws?

Huan Chenxue felt stunned. That level was far beyond her grasp.

Did it surpass a Godly Monarch?

Yi Yun flicked his finger, sending the Fate Changing Pill from his hand into Huan Chenxue’s palm. “This pill draws from the Sinkhole’s Heavenly Dao laws. It holds lingering Ancestor God powers, along with nomological forces from Senior Divine Alchemist.”

Though Yi Yun could have restored Huan Chenxue as he did Old Snake by merging her with the missing Heavenly Dao, he chose otherwise. He fulfilled the divine alchemist's unfinished vow instead. Having inherited the divine alchemist’s heritage before, this act severed their karmic tie at last.

Upon swallowing this heaven-defying pill, Huan Chenxue would merge with the Nine Li Magus Maiden. As they were once unified, she would regain her full original might.

The eight ancient Godly Monarchs had given up far too much for the Sinkhole. Now, Yi Yun restored all they sacrificed.

“Thank you, Yi Yun. Back when I brought you to the Mirage Sea Realm, I never dreamed you'd achieve such heights.” A surge of emotions filled Huan Chenxue. Yi Yun's growth had been explosively fast. That span of time meant little to beings like her, yet for Yi Yun, it birthed an incredible miracle.

“You mentioned earlier that you killed the Ancestor God?” Huan Chenxue questioned once more.

Yi Yun nodded. “I’ve reclaimed the Sinkhole’s Heavenly Dao. In the years ahead, I’ll restore it to the Sinkhole.”

Though Yi Yun spoke softly, his words echoed across the entire Mirage Sea Realm. Every listener caught them distinctly.

Shock gripped all the geniuses.

They struggled to process his statement, or rather, refused to believe it despite understanding.

It felt like a dream.

The Sinkhole's death loomed as a dark shadow over every Sinkhole warrior's mind. It marked the supreme calamity for this era's warriors.

Yet Yi Yun had slain the Ancestor God and would return the Sinkhole’s Heavenly Dao!

Reaching Yi Yun’s realm meant dominating the world and fate, reviving ancient Godly Monarchs with a mere gesture, and repairing a Universe’s Heavenly Dao effortlessly.

This was the peak of existence.
