Chapter 445: Supreme Sun Celestial, the Prodigy of Taihuang Palace!
Chapter 445: Supreme Sun Celestial, the Prodigy of Taihuang Palace!
Above the sky, powerful figures gathered.
Wusheng Celestial sat in a high position, his eyes sparkling with a radiant smile.
"I wonder how many juniors will step into the Supreme Truth Realm in this Supreme Truth Debate. Will anyone... be able to comprehend the Supreme Truth?"
Wusheng Celestial was one of the elders of the Supreme Truth Association.
All elders were at the Grand Supreme Truth level, making them the strongest beings in the Sixth Heaven.
"The winds are stirring, heralding an era of greatness. Let's hope more will reach the Supreme Truth Realm," said a Grand Supreme Truth from Shenluo Heaven, his voice carrying a mysterious tone.
"I wonder if we’ll see a hundred this time.
In the last debate, only fifty-three managed to comprehend the Supreme Truth," remarked another Grand Supreme Truth, his voice slow and drawn out.
"It's difficult."
"More than that, I care if anyone will comprehend the Supreme Truth," said a Grand Supreme Truth from Ghost Dominion Heaven.
Upon hearing this, the Yang God Celestials present felt their spirits stir.
For over a million years, no Yang God in the Sixth Heaven had comprehended the Supreme Truth.
Those at the top had remained unchanged for eons.
"The one from Black Demon Abyss, Black Sword... his talent is extraordinary. He may well comprehend the Supreme Truth," said Moonlight Celestial from Moon God Palace, her voice filled with a touch of admiration and envy.
She was a Grand Supreme Truth and possessed an offensive Creation Artifact. Aside from a select few, she was among the most powerful.
Yet, she still envied the Yang Gods who had comprehended the Supreme Truth.
At the mention of Black Sword, the Grand Supreme Truths present all felt a twinge of envy.
"Who would've thought that Black Demon Abyss would still have such fortune, producing a prodigy like Black Sword," sighed one of the Grand Supreme Truths, his words dripping with envy.
He was from White Dragon Abyss, one of the Four Abysses.
White Dragon Abyss had fewer Grand Supreme Truths than Black Demon Abyss and no Grand Supreme Truths who had comprehended the Supreme Truth.
Already weaker than Black Demon Abyss, the appearance of Black Sword, with his bright future, left him even more envious.
"Is Black Sword’s talent and insight really as exaggerated as the rumors say?" asked one Yang God Celestial curiously.
He was at the Grand Supreme Truth level and understood well how difficult it was to comprehend the Supreme Truth.
After all, while Yang Gods in the Sixth Heaven were as numerous as stars, those who had comprehended the Supreme Truth were fewer than two handfuls.
Some of the Grand Supreme Truths thought Black Sword’s talent was merely exaggerated by rumors.
"If his talent and insight weren't so extraordinary, why would the Eight Elders of Black Demon Abyss gather to collectively refine the Ascension Blood Insight Pill for him?"
"This pill drains one's vitality greatly. With Lynia's Transformation approaching, they wouldn't risk expending their vitality unless they were confident." A Grand Supreme Truth explained.
"Speaking of that, I’ve heard Taihuang Palace recently produced a prodigy who might also comprehend the Supreme Truth?" Wusheng Celestial inquired, turning to a Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace.
The Yang Gods present were visibly shaken by this news.
They hadn’t heard this information before.
Especially Moonlight Celestial from Moon God Palace—her heart trembled at the mention.
Taihuang Palace had produced another unparalleled prodigy?
The Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace squinted his eyes, a brilliant smile on his face. "The Supreme Truth Association truly lives up to its reputation as the top faction in the Sixth Heaven. Even this sort of news can reach you.
It’s true that our Taihuang Palace has a new prodigy. However, as for comprehending the Supreme Truth... well, that’s still to be seen.
It hasn’t been realized yet, so who can say?"
At this, the Grand Supreme Truths present all gasped inwardly.
Taihuang Palace already had one Grand Supreme Truth who had comprehended the Supreme Truth.
If they gained another... were they...
Moreover, the one from Taihuang Palace who had comprehended the Supreme Truth was considered strong even among those who had done so.
If they gained another, wouldn’t that mean Taihuang Palace would far surpass other factions, potentially rivaling the Supreme Truth Association?
Wusheng Celestial narrowed his eyes, though no one could tell what he was thinking. "It seems that with Lynia’s Transformation approaching, Taihuang Palace will be the biggest winner."
For nearly ten million years, the Supreme Truth Association had been the most powerful force in the Sixth Heaven, boasting two Grand Supreme Truths who had comprehended the Supreme Truth.
Now, there might be another.
The Grand Supreme Truths present could feel the rising tension.
"The future is unpredictable," the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace said, casting a playful glance at Moonlight Celestial.
Moonlight Celestial felt both wary and deeply troubled.
Moon God Palace had always been slightly weaker than Taihuang Palace.
If Taihuang Palace gained another Grand Supreme Truth who had comprehended the Supreme Truth, how would Moon God Palace even compete?
With this revelation, the Grand Supreme Truths fell silent, many quietly sending messages back to their factions.
After all, if Taihuang Palace gained another Grand Supreme Truth who had comprehended the Supreme Truth, the balance of power in the Sixth Heaven would shift dramatically.
The factions most affected would be Moon God Palace and the Supreme Truth Association.
At that moment, as a great resonance echoed through the heavens, countless profound insights descended from above.
The Grand Supreme Truths all turned their gazes to a distant spot.
There, over a thousand Yang Gods had gathered.
The auras of these Yang Gods were immense, their expressions ranging from carefree to deeply contemplative.
These Yang Gods had all received invitations to the Supreme Truth Debate, granting them the opportunity to meditate on the Wall of Supreme Truth and comprehend the Supreme Truth.
Seeing this, the surrounding Yang Gods, divine beings, and various prodigies looked on with envy and admiration.
"I wonder when I’ll be able to accumulate enough merit to go to the Wall of Supreme Truth and meditate," said one Yang God Celestial, his voice filled with envy.
He was from the First Heaven and had been serving the Supreme Truth Association with the sole aim of earning enough merit to attend the Supreme Truth Debate and meditate at the Wall.
"These Yang Gods will be the true pillars of the Sixth Heaven’s future, bearing its weight on their shoulders!" said a divine-level figure with envy.
Some of the prodigies around also looked on with jealousy.
At that moment, Oxhorn Sister opened a jade slip and enthusiastically said, "The Supreme Truth Debate has begun. Look, Black Sword has already entered! See that really handsome one? That’s Black Sword!"
She was, surprisingly, live-streaming.
Yes, she was live-streaming the event to the other prodigies of Black Demon Abyss.
As the young generation of Black Demon Abyss watched, their expressions all shifted.
Anxun Deer puffed out her chest and shot a glance at Ziyuan Xiaolu. "Big Brother Black Sword can go to the Wall of Supreme Truth to meditate, while someone’s admired Big Brother Blood Robe is only here as a spectator."
Ziyuan Xiaolu stomped her foot in frustration. "Big Brother Blood Robe is young! Not like some people, who are probably already starting to smell old!"
“You…” Anxun Deer fumed, her ample chest heaving with anger.
At this moment, countless eyes from across the Sixth Heaven were focused on the thousand gathered Yang Gods.
Yang Gods rarely appeared in the Sixth Heaven.
To see over a thousand Yang Gods gathered in one place was a rare sight for many cultivators—a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
After all, on ordinary days, even glimpsing a single Yang God was difficult.
Now, not only were they seeing so many at once, but these weren’t just ordinary Yang Gods—they were Yang Gods with the potential to comprehend the Supreme Truth.
At this moment, a tall man appeared, his back illuminated by endless halos, giving him an imposing and boundless presence.
"Fellow Daoists, should any of you step into the Supreme Truth Realm with the help of the Wall of Supreme Truth and lack a faction, you are always welcome to join the Supreme Truth Association."
This Grand Supreme Truth Yang God extended an olive branch.
The Supreme Truth Association, as the faction with the most Yang Gods in the Sixth Heaven, was always keen on recruiting new members.
This was the key to their continued growth.
Many of the Yang Gods present were tempted, but most remained silent.
In sacred places, taverns, and blessed lands across the Sixth Heaven, images from the Supreme Truth Debate were being "broadcast" live.
At this moment, Qi Yuan, disguised as Molo Celestial, was blending into the crowd, keeping a low profile.
Suddenly, a gaze fell on him, carrying a hint of surprise.
"Molo Daoist, you seem… a bit different from before."
Qi Yuan looked over immediately, spotting a man he didn’t recognize.
The man was dressed in a dark blue, long, trailing robe, his posture upright and his expression calm, yet there was an unmistakable sharpness about him.
Qi Yuan searched Molo’s memories quickly. "So, it’s Supreme Sun Daoist. It’s been years, and you’ve only grown more impressive."
This Supreme Sun Celestial was from Taihuang Palace and had crossed paths with Molo once before.
Supreme Sun Celestial fixed his deep gaze on Qi Yuan. "It seems that the Molo Clan will soon have another Supreme Truth Realm Yang God. Congratulations."
As he spoke, Qi Yuan felt the eyes of many powerful Yang Gods shift toward him.
Of course, most were focused on Supreme Sun Celestial.
From a distance, Black Sword also approached, his eyes landing on Supreme Sun Celestial. His cultured demeanor betrayed a hint of wariness. "So, Taihuang Palace has produced another prodigy. Congratulations."
Geniuses are always drawn to each other.
Among the many Yang Gods present, Black Sword immediately noticed Supreme Sun Celestial.
Supreme Sun Celestial smiled warmly, exuding an air of elegance. "I’m no match for you, Daoist."
Their brief exchange instantly attracted many gazes.
As for Qi Yuan, he stood there like a mere bystander, drawing little attention.
"This Molo Celestial from the Molo Clan is too ugly. He’s blocking my view of Big Brother Black Sword’s handsome face," Anxun Deer couldn’t help but complain.
However, a few Grand Supreme Truths had subtly odd expressions as they glanced at Qi Yuan.
"This Molo seems somewhat… unusual."
"There’s something hidden in his aura. Could it be that he’s close to becoming a Supreme Truth Yang God?"
Still, they only gave him a passing glance.
Compared to Black Sword and Supreme Sun Celestial, Qi Yuan’s aura was far too weak.
While the thousand gathered Yang Gods were indeed awe-inspiring, it wasn’t much to Qi Yuan—after all, he had more Nascent Souls than that.
"Hurry up and start already. My mind’s really sharp right now, and I feel incredibly strong!"
After using his brain during the Yin God Debate, Qi Yuan’s rare bout of mental activity was still going strong.
This was a rare state for him, and he didn’t want to waste it.
So, he was eager to head to the Wall of Supreme Truth to meditate.
At that moment, a vast voice echoed through the heavens.
"The debate begins, enter the wall!"
With that announcement, a colossal, majestic, and battle-scarred wall appeared before Qi Yuan’s eyes.
The wall was covered with various marks, seemingly left by countless blades and swords.
This wall was the Creation Artifact known as the Wall of Supreme Truth.
All the Yang Gods turned their gazes toward the wall, their expressions becoming solemn.
Immediately, many Yang Gods flew toward the wall, sitting cross-legged to meditate and comprehend its mysteries.
"The stillness of ancient times holds all movement. The void holds all realms. Today, I shall prevail!" Supreme Sun Celestial strode forward to the Wall of Supreme Truth.
He didn’t sit down; he stood.
Black Sword also approached the wall slowly, standing before it.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan thought to himself, "Standing or sitting—won’t they get tired?
Seems like a waste of energy. Shouldn’t they save their strength so their minds can work faster?"
Thinking this, he walked up to the Wall of Supreme Truth, pulled out a bed, and casually lay down on it.
Lying down would make blood flow to his brain more efficiently, which Qi Yuan considered quite scientific and conducive to mental performance.
This scene caught the attention of many cultivators, who were all stunned.
"This is… too casual, right? He brought a bed to the Wall of Supreme Truth?"
"What… is he doing?"
Among the gathered Yang Gods, some were seated cross-legged, while others stood. This was the first time anyone had seen someone bring a bed.
Even the Grand Supreme Truths couldn’t help but glance at Qi Yuan.
"This Molo Celestial is quite the character. It’s a pity he’s from the Molo Clan. Otherwise, I’d invite him to join our Supreme Truth Association," Wusheng Celestial said with a smile.
Then, his tone shifted. "Shall we make a wager on whether Molo Celestial will comprehend the Supreme Truth? And if he does, what grade will it be?
I think he’s got potential. He should be able to comprehend… an Earth Grade Supreme Truth, don’t you think?"
"Wusheng Celestial, you seem to have high hopes for him," said the Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace, his tone mild. "I’ve seen Molo before. He’s got some talent, but not much. He’d be lucky to comprehend a Yellow Grade Supreme Truth."
"There’s nothing interesting about betting on Molo. If we’re betting, it should be on whether Black Sword or Supreme Sun comprehends the Supreme Truth first," said a Grand Supreme Truth from Ghost Dominion Heaven, his gaze deep.
He was particularly fixated on Black Sword.
Ghost Dominion Heaven had already developed a deep enmity toward Black Demon Abyss.
If Black Sword truly did comprehend the Supreme Truth, he intended to personally eliminate him.
"I’ll place my bet on Black Sword," Moonlight Celestial said calmly.
Though Moon God Palace had clashed with Black Demon Abyss, their greatest enemy was Taihuang Palace.
"I’m rooting for Black Sword too," said a Grand Supreme Truth from Shenluo Heaven.
"Black Sword," echoed the Grand Supreme Truth from White Dragon Abyss, who was known for his brevity.
For them, the idea of Black Demon Abyss gaining another powerhouse was concerning, but the prospect of Taihuang Palace producing another Grand Supreme Truth who had comprehended the Supreme Truth was far worse.
The one from Taihuang Palace was known for his domineering nature.
When the Buddha Kingdom produced a Grand Supreme Truth, aiming to ascend to the Sixth Heaven, that very figure had been slain by Taihuang Palace’s Great Sun Grand Supreme Truth.
A Grand Supreme Truth who had comprehended the Supreme Truth was already so tyrannical—two such figures were unimaginable.
The Grand Supreme Truth from Taihuang Palace, seeing this, smirked with pride. "It seems none of you have much faith in Supreme Sun. Well, I’ll bet on my own."
His expression was smug, even a bit inflated with confidence.
Because once the Supreme Truth Association announced the matter of Lynia’s Transformation, he had some major news to announce as well.
When the time came… Heh, these Grand Supreme Truths would be shaken to their core.
This Sixth Heaven… would belong to Taihuang Palace!
All eyes were on the Wall of Supreme Truth.
With each new Yang God who comprehended the Supreme Truth, the power dynamics of certain regions would shift.
And if someone were to comprehend the Supreme Truth, the entire balance of the Sixth Heaven would change.
"Blood Robe, who do you think will succeed?" Oxhorn Sister asked Qi Yuan, who stood nearby.
Of course, this Qi Yuan was merely one of his Nascent Souls in disguise.
"I’m betting on… Molo Celestial. That guy looks like he’s about to comprehend the Supreme Truth," Qi Yuan said confidently.
Is it really so wrong to compliment yourself, even through one of your own avatars?
"Huh?" Oxhorn Sister was stunned. "Did you burn out your brain again today?"
Comprehending the Supreme Truth wasn’t something that happened easily.
Of all the prodigies, perhaps only Big Brother Black Sword had a real chance.
As for the others, she hadn’t heard any whispers suggesting they had the potential.
The spotlight and glory of this event would belong to Black Demon Abyss.
