Chapter 2772 - 2772: 9 Authorities (2)
The Gate of Beyond Heaven was the earliest “cheat device” Yun Lintian obtained. It was undeniably the most important thing for him. There were numerous times he had escaped danger because of it.
It could be said that without the Purple Void God’s sacrifice, Yun Lintian would have become a cold corpse a long time ago.
Yun Lintian let out a long breath and asked, “Is it possible to go back in time and find her?”
Kong Xuan shook his head and said, “While it’s possible, I don’t recommend it. You might end up in a time paradox.”
Yun Lintian frowned slightly and sighed. “It seems there’s no way to repay her.”
Kong Xuan smiled and said, “You don’t have to be sad. As long as you continue to move forward and accomplish your goal, she will definitely be happy for you.”
“Yes,” Yun Lintian nodded firmly.
“What’s your next plan now?” Kong Xuan asked.
“Let’s go back to find the God of Light,” Yun Lintian said and waved his hand, opening a spatial rift.
As everyone entered, they immediately appeared inside the Celestial Radiance Realm. To everyone’s surprise, Hei Xuan and Ping Heng were already there.
Seeing Kong Xuan, Qing Yun, and Yun Lintian, Hei Xuan laughed and said, “Hahaha! Welcome to the retirement home, Old Kong, Qing Yun.”
“It seems your life is very comfortable, huh?” Kong Xuan chuckled. Among the Primordial Gods who had stopped him back then, Hei Xuan was the one who had tried to help him avenge his daughter. Perhaps it was because Hei Xuan also had a daughter, and he knew very well how painful it would be to lose her.
Hei Xuan poured a cup of wine for Kong Xuan and beckoned him to sit down. “Come, let’s drink.”
Kong Xuan unceremoniously sat down and drank the wine in one gulp.
“Hah! It’s been a long time since I’ve had such good wine,” he said with satisfaction.
On the side, Ping Heng frowned slightly as he looked at Kong Xuan. “Did Nian Shi appear?”
“Of course,” Kong Xuan curled his lips and poured himself another cup of wine.
Ping Heng turned to look at Yun Lintian and asked, “What was the result?”
“We got lucky. We managed to chase him away,” Yun Lintian replied calmly.
Ping Heng nodded slowly. “It was more than luck.”
At this moment, Li Qinglan came over with her daughter, Hei Yue. She first looked at Yun Lintian and then at Qing Yun.
“Sister Qing,” she said gently.
Qing Yun smiled and said, “It’s been a while, Qinglan. Congratulations on reuniting with your daughter.”
Li Qinglan smiled and looked at Yun Lintian. “Are you ready?”
“Yes,” Yun Lintian nodded firmly. “After this, I will take everyone to my timeline. Although the environment there isn’t ideal, it’s much safer.”
“Alright,” Li Qinglan naturally had no objection.
Hei Yue looked at her “husband” and hesitated. She wanted to ask if Yun Lintian was fine, but she was too shy to say it.
Yun Lintian seemed to see through her thoughts. He said gently, “I’m fine. Don’t worry.”
“That’s good,” Hei Yue smiled.
Li Qinglan raised her hands, and a radiant sphere of pure light materialized between her palms. The Celestial Radiance Realm trembled as the God of Light prepared to transfer her authority.
“Ready?” she asked softly.
Yun Lintian nodded, steeling himself. “Do it.”
The moment the light entered his body, chaos erupted in his Divine Core.
BOOM!
The God of Darkness’ power, which had lain dormant since its absorption, surged forward like a tidal wave of ink. Light and darkness collided violently within Yun Lintian’s meridians, sending spasms of agony through his body.
“Guh—!” Blood trickled from his nose as he dropped to one knee.
Inside Yun Lintian’s Divine Core, war raged.
Light sought to purify, its brilliance scouring every shadow.
Darkness fought to corrupt, its tendrils strangling the radiance.
The Tree of Life shook violently, its roots straining to maintain stability. The golden scales of Balance tipped wildly, unable to mediate between two such opposing forces.
Yun Lintian’s veins bulged as his skin alternately glowed and darkened. His left eye shone like the sun while his right became a void darker than night.
“Focus.” Li Qinglan said solemnly.
Yun Lintian gritted his teeth, pouring his will into the conflict.
But it wasn’t enough.
Buzz—
The Beyond Heaven King’s Crown immediately appeared on Yun Lintian’s head. Its black and white body shone brightly, helping Yun Lintian controlling over the power of the light and darkness.
Yun Lintian stopped trying to control the energies—instead, he let them flow freely, creating a vast cycle within his Divine Core.
Light would blaze until spent. Darkness would rise to quench it. Both would dissolve into pure energy and the process would repeat endlessly.
The violent clashes transformed into a graceful dance—opposites complementing rather than combating.
Crack!
A new structure formed in Yun Lintian’s Divine Core—a yin-yang wheel of light and darkness, rotating in perfect harmony. The Tree of Life’s roots wrapped around it, stabilizing the balance.
Li Qinglan gasped as the last of her authority left her body. “It’s done.”
Yun Lintian opened his eyes—and the universe held its breath.
Where his pupils had been, a swirling yin-yang symbol now rotated slowly, its perfect balance reflecting the harmony within his Divine Core. The left eye glowed with solar radiance, the right shimmered with void-like darkness.
He raised his hands.
Whoosh!
A sphere of pure light materialized in his left palm, its brilliance illuminating the Celestial Radiance Realm like a newborn star. In his right, darkness coalesced into a perfect orb that devoured all illumination around it.
Then—
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Seven more spheres erupted into existence, orbiting around Yun Lintian’s body like celestial bodies.
Mountain God’s unyielding earth—brown and solid as bedrock.
Sun God’s golden flames—blazing with solar fury.
Balance God’s scales—tipping endlessly between extremes.
Space God’s fractals—constantly folding and unfolding.
Life God’s emerald energy—pulsing with verdant vitality.
War God’s crimson aura—singing with battle hymns.
River God’s liquid currents—flowing in endless loops.
Nine Primordial Authorities. Nine spheres of unimaginable power. All dancing in perfect synchronization around their master.
Hei Xuan’s wine cup slipped from his fingers. “By the Creator…”
Ping Heng’s usually calm expression cracked. “He’s done it.”
Yun Lintian flexed his fingers, watching as the nine spheres responded instantly to his will.
With a thought, he could combine Mountain and River to create continents. He could also eave Light and Darkness into day and night and used Space to fold reality while Balance maintained stability.
In short, he had taken a very important step closer to the birth of the new Creator…
