Chapter 1526: Demon God's Prophecy

In the Eastern Divine Region, within the Eternal Heaven God Realm.

To locate Yun Che, the Eternal Heaven God Realm had finally activated the Voice of Eternal Heaven, broadcasting its message across the entire Eastern Divine Region.

A day passed, but no news arrived. Throughout that day, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor sat quietly in the main hall, unmoving the entire time. He didn't even entertain the Dragon Monarch, who was temporarily staying in the Eternal Heaven God Realm.

His former reverence had transformed into biting, piercing anger and resentment. He had shown kindness to Yun Che, but Yun Che's kindness towards him far surpassed it. Especially since his return to the Primal Chaos, Yun Che had continuously strived to save the world. Even the Heretic God's divine power within him was a seed of salvation. Regardless of the cause, process, or outcome, he deserved the title of "Divine Son of Salvation." Without him, the current God Realm would have undoubtedly become a purgatory of disaster.

Similarly, without him, the Devil Queen would not have remained silent for three full years, never taking action. And everything changed starting from the palm strike he delivered to the Devil Queen.

Did he regret it? No, he did not. If given another chance, he would still make the same choice. Even if the Devil Queen had prevented the devil gods from entering the world and saved the God Realm, he still would not have missed the opportunity to eliminate the enormous menace that was the Devil Queen. It was just that Yun Che's situation was not what he had wished for.

"My Lord," Elder Taishi entered and bowed from a distance.

"Is there any news of Yun Che?" the Eternal Heaven God Emperor asked, his voice quite weak.

"None," Elder Taishi replied.

"Then you may withdraw," the Eternal Heaven God Emperor said. "Do not inquire further about Yun Che's place of origin. Such actions would be no different from those of devils."

"No," Elder Taishi corrected, "Mo Yu, Mo Wen, and Mo Zhi from the Heaven Oracle Realm are here. They claim to have important news concerning the peace of the God Realm and insist on seeing you, My Lord, no matter what."

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's eyebrows subtly twitched. The Three Heaven Oracle Elders never spoke idly, and their sudden simultaneous visit was no small matter. "Invite them in."

Soon, the Three Heaven Oracle Elders entered side-by-side. Their steps were hurried, completely devoid of their usual calm and ethereal demeanor. Their expressions were grave, tinged with a clear somberness. The Eternal Heaven God Emperor had known the Three Heaven Oracle Elders for many years and shared a deep friendship with them, but he had never seen them in such a state. "Three Elders, what has prompted your sudden visit today?"

"It concerns Yun Che," said Mo Yu, the leader of the Three Heaven Oracle Elders. As the most unique upper star realm, the Heaven Oracle Realm naturally knew the full story of all events.

"Ah, as expected." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor sighed deeply. "Three Masters, can you tell this old man... whether what I did was right or wrong?"

"Time cannot be reversed, and what has been done cannot be undone, so whether it was right or wrong no longer matters," Mo Yu said. "Eternal Heaven God Emperor, please look at this." As he spoke, he pushed his palm forward, and profound light flashed, revealing a massive white tome. The tome was several yards in size, surrounded by a peaceful profound glow, accompanied by an ancient and sacred aura.

"The Heaven Oracle Divine Tome?" The Eternal Heaven God Emperor frowned slightly. "Could it be that the three masters have recently glimpsed another important heavenly secret?"

"No," Mo Yu shook his head, waved his hand, and opened the first page of the Heaven Oracle Divine Tome.

At the Profound God Convention back then, after Yun Che triggered the Nine-Stage Heavenly Tribulation and achieved first place in the Conferred God Battle, the Three Heaven Oracle Elders simultaneously exclaimed the words "Son of the Heavenly Way" and proclaimed the prophecy of "True God descending to the world," shaking all profound practitioners. Amidst the doubts of many powerful individuals, they publicly opened the first page of the Heaven Oracle Divine Tome. The initially blank first page, under the Heaven Oracle power simultaneously released by the Three Heaven Oracle Elders, revealed the prophecy of the Heaven Oracle Realm's founding ancestor, Grand Ancestor Huantian...

The Three Heaven Oracle Elders simultaneously stepped forward, extending their arms. As their thoughts condensed, unique profound light, exclusive to the Heaven Oracle Realm, shone from their palms. Instantly, on the first page of the Heaven Oracle Divine Tome, the two lines of golden inscription—the Grand Ancestor's prophecy presented to the world four years ago—reappeared:

Nine-Stage Heavenly Tribulation appears,True God descends once more.

Back on the Conferred God Stage, it was this prophecy that caused Yun Che's aura to instantly become blindingly brilliant, almost explosive. The Eternal Heaven God Emperor and the Brahma Monarch God Emperor vied to take him as their direct disciple. The Shitian God Emperor wanted to bring him back to the Southern Divine Region. Later, the Brahma Monarch God Emperor even wanted to betroth the Brahma Emperor Divine Daughter to him, and the Dragon Monarch publicly sought to adopt him as his godson... Those scenes were still vivid in the Eternal Heaven God Emperor's mind, causing him endless sighs. He said, "This prophecy, of course, this old man has not forgotten. It is not surprising that Yun Che, bearing the only Creation God inheritance in this era, will break the limits of this world in the future. Grand Ancestor Huantian's final prophecy truly does not deceive."

"No, these two lines are actually only half of the ancestor's prophecy; there is another half," Mo Yu said with a heavy expression.

"Oh?" Just as the Eternal Heaven God Emperor was about to inquire, his gaze suddenly sharpened. At this very moment, below the widely known four-character prophecy, another two lines of golden inscription slowly and suddenly appeared:

If benevolent, all heavens shall be eternally at peace;If malevolent, devil gods shall slaughter the world.

"…!" A sudden chill descended. The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's expression abruptly changed, and he shot to his feet.

"We already saw the latter two lines of the prophecy back at the Profound God Convention. But at that time, Yun Che was neither malevolent nor a devil. Though his temperament was fierce, his eyes were clear, and there was no trace of turbidity about him. Therefore, we did not make it public or tell anyone."

"And what Yun Che did later perfectly aligned with 'If benevolent, all heavens shall be eternally at peace.' Even with the Devil Emperor returning to the world, devil gods approaching, and the Devil Queen awakening, it was all because of him... The Devil Emperor was willing to leave the Primal Chaos and prevent the devil gods' return, and the Devil Queen was willing to forever remain in the lower realms, not encroaching upon the God Realm."

"The Grand Ancestor's prophecy, every word like a god's. Thus, as long as Yun Che remained alive, all worlds could be eternally at peace."

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's lips began to tremble... gradually, his hands, and his entire body, started to tremble. "But now, Yun Che has... become a devil due to extreme malevolence! Eternal Heaven God Emperor, do you understand what this will mean?"

"..." The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's body swayed violently, his pupils gradually losing their color.

If malevolent, devil gods shall slaughter the world...

Yesterday, the malevolence he erupted with under extreme grief, indignation, and resentment shocked everyone. Following that malevolence, dark profound energy surged! This directly matched the last line of the prophecy!

Mo Wen said, "The three of us speculate that Yun Che himself is not truly a devil. He never possessed dark profound energy. Devils are twisted, utterly evil demonic spirits who crave chaos and disaster; how could one like that expend everything to save the God Realm from peril? His dark profound energy was born from malevolence yesterday." Dark profound energy is negative profound energy. When a living being's negative emotions reach a certain threshold, their own profound energy can indeed be distorted and transformed into dark profound energy. While this situation is extremely rare, it has occurred in the history of the God Realm. In the higher realms of the God Realm, it is common knowledge. In other words, this implies that Yun Che suddenly becoming a devil was not because he was a devil to begin with, but because yesterday... he was forced into it by them.

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor, who had just stood up, sank heavily back into his seat, his face quickly turning deathly pale. He did not doubt the words of the Three Heaven Oracle Elders in the slightest, especially the revelation that Yun Che was not originally a devil, which pierced directly into his heart. He had been in close contact with Yun Che on multiple occasions, and numerous God Emperors and God Lords from the God Realm had met him. If Yun Che truly possessed dark profound energy, it was unlikely that so many God Emperors and God Lords would have remained completely oblivious. Furthermore, Yun Che was recognized by the Dragon Queen of the Western Region and cultivated light profound energy! To cultivate light profound energy, one must possess the legendary "Sacred Body" or "Sacred Heart." It was also Yun Che who used light profound energy to dispel the Devil Queen's devilish aura from him, with no hint of falsehood. How could he have been a devil at that time?!

It was actually him... who had forced Yun Che, a being with a compassionate "Sacred Heart" predicted to ensure "eternal peace for all worlds," into becoming a devil?!

"Was I wrong... Was I... truly wrong...?" he murmured, utterly distraught.

"Eternal Heaven God Emperor, it has come to this; discussing right or wrong is meaningless now," Mo Yu stated emphatically. "Even if it was wrong... you must correct the mistake as quickly and as fully as possible!"

"Under no circumstances can we allow 'devil gods slaughtering the world' to happen!"

"In other words," Mo Zhi added, "Yun Che's transformation into a devil is a fact. Therefore... we must use any means necessary to kill him! Absolutely... we absolutely cannot allow him to grow!"

"Absolute...ly... not!"

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's pupils contracted. He suddenly stood up and roared, "Taishi!!"

Elder Taishi from outside the hall flashed inside.

"Prepare the ship immediately!"

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor no longer carried his previous despondency. His eyes and the turbulent aura around him secretly startled Elder Taishi, who quickly accepted the order, saying, "Yes... Where is the ship heading?"

The Eternal Heaven God Emperor spoke, slowly uttering three words: "Blue... Pole... Star!"

Elder Taishi frowned. It was the first time he had heard the name of this planet. He then reacted sharply, exclaiming, "Could it be... this is the devil Yun Che's home planet?"

"Prepare immediately!" The Eternal Heaven God Emperor nodded slightly, his voice stern. "And spread this news with all haste, in the shortest possible time!"

"Go quickly!"

Elder Taishi accepted the order and departed. The Eternal Heaven God Emperor's face was grim, but his body... still trembled slightly, and cold sweat dripped from him, as if he had just recovered from a severe illness.

Within the Eastern Divine Region, most who had never truly encountered the Heaven Oracle Realm did not believe in Heaven Oracle prophecies, even scoffing at them. However, within the Eastern Divine Region, the Heaven Oracle Realm was almost a mythical existence, and the Eternal Heaven God Realm, in particular, trusted the Heaven Oracle prophecies implicitly. This was because the Eternal Heaven Grand Ancestor and the Heaven Oracle Grand Ancestor were close friends back then. The Heaven Oracle founding Grand Ancestor's very first prophecy was that the Eternal Heaven Realm would surely become a king realm, and for countless years thereafter, all prophecies from the Heaven Oracle Realm had come true without fail! For these many years, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor's profound regard for Yun Che was also largely due to the prophecy of "True God descending."

Now, "If malevolent, devil gods shall slaughter the world"... how could he take these six words lightly! Yun Che had been forced into becoming a devil by him. If this terrible prophecy truly came to pass, then he... would undoubtedly become the eternal sinner of the God Realm!

The Brahma Monarch God Realm.

Within the Brahma Heart Array, collaboratively constructed by the Six Brahma Kings, Qianye Ying'er, who had been in a coma for a long time, finally awoke. The collapse of the Brahma Soul had caused too much damage to her true soul. Although she had been in a coma for only a day and was aided by the Brahma Heart Array, it was impossible for her to fully recover.

Qianye Fantian had been by her side. Sensing Qianye Ying'er's awakening, his gaze finally turned to her.

"Father," Qianye Ying'er struggled to sit up, her voice weak, but her eyes regained their intimidating coolness that no one dared to meet. "Ying'er has made a grave mistake." The "grave mistake" she referred to was helping Yun Che escape with an Ethereal Stone while under the slave imprint.

"It no longer matters," Qianye Fantian said. "Tell me, where is Yun Che's home planet?" No sooner had he spoken than a figure flashed like a streak of light and knelt behind Qianye Fantian, speaking urgently: "Reporting, God Emperor, an urgent message from the Eternal Heaven God Realm! To force the devil Yun Che to appear and be captured, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor has personally gone to his home planet, seemingly a planet in the east named 'Blue Pole Star.'"

"…!" Qianye Fantian's brows furrowed, and his expression turned very unpleasant. He had originally intended to ask Qianye Ying'er for the location of Yun Che's home planet and then travel there discreetly. Any fool could guess that a planet capable of giving birth to such a monstrosity as Yun Che must be extraordinary, very possibly harboring some earth-shattering secret. However, the Eternal Heaven God Emperor, who had previously been unwilling to expose Yun Che's place of origin, had suddenly changed his mind, thus foiling Qianye Fantian's plan.

"Prepare the ship immediately," Qianye Fantian said in a deep voice. "Follow where Eternal Heaven has gone." Soon, a profound ark flew out from the Brahma Monarch God Realm, directly pursuing the Eternal Heaven God Realm's profound ark. At the same time, numerous high-level profound arks rose into the sky from various star realms, all flying in the same direction... Towards the location of the Blue Pole Star.
