Chapter 820
The Child of the Void stood towering, silently observing the direction of the Tianqing World.
Even now, having mostly recovered his powers and able to mobilize the entire Void Secret Realm,
with just a thought, he could suppress everything in the Boundless Void.
Yet, the Child of the Void focused intently on the source of the temporal fluctuations, his mind filled with doubts and speculations.
Behind him, the Perfect Demon True Lords were similarly engaged, among them ancient beings whose existence spanned even beyond that of the Child of the Void, tracing back to before the Void Secret Realm was formed.
This current temporal fluctuation seemed to have sparked a memory in the oldest of the Demonic Divine Masters,
a flicker of fear crossing their faces.
Countless epochs had passed since the birth of the Boundless Void, with many Demonic Divine Masters dominating their realms.
But even the Perfect Demonic Divine Masters of the Ninth Stage could not fundamentally shake the Boundless Void.
Historically, there had been three instances of such significant impact on the entire Boundless Void.
The first was when the Boundless Void birthed its first Tenth Stage Evil God, merging seamlessly with the rules of the Boundless Void, majestically mighty.
The second instance was when this Tenth Stage Evil God founded the Void Secret Realm, fundamentally altering the Boundless Void with its creation, leaving a profound impact.
The third instance was when the Child of the Void became the new ruler of the Void Secret Realm, unleashing its power and causing temporal fluctuations throughout the Boundless Void.
And now,
there was a fourth instance.
The temporal fluctuations originating from the Tianqing World hinted at engulfing the entirety of the Boundless Void.
There was a common factor in all four instances—they were related to the Tenth Stage.
During the third instance, the Child of the Void had assumed control of the Void Secret Realm; although not yet stepping into the Tenth Stage himself, the Void Secret Realm had been painstakingly established by a being of the Tenth Stage.
It was closely linked to the Tenth Stage.
“This temporal fluctuation?”
“Is it the Tenth Stage, has the Boundless Void birthed another Tenth Stage existence?”
“Yes, this feeling reminds me of the time when the founder of the Void Secret Realm stepped into the Tenth Stage, the effects on space-time were similar to now.”
The Perfect Demon True Lords were shocked; they had thought that the Child of the Void, the next to ascend to the Tenth Stage in the Boundless Void,
had, after all, the Child of the Void controlled the Void Secret Realm, which was fully created by the previous Tenth Stage Evil God.
Being constantly in tune with the very essence of the Void Secret Realm, the Child of the Void had a greater likelihood of stepping into the Tenth Stage than any other Perfect Demon True Lord.
But now?
The Child of the Void stood right before them.
Did this mean that someone else had entered into the Tenth Stage?
“Could it be that Martial Ancestor from Tianqing World?”
Tianzhi True Lord felt a chill, the sources of the temporal fluctuations were blatant, with no intent to conceal, perceivable to any Ninth Stage Demonic Divine Masters.
Tianzhi True Lord had personally visited Tianqing World, estimating that the source of the fluctuations was near there.
With the Martial Ancestor stationed in Tianqing World, it was difficult for Tianzhi True Lord not to speculate about him causing these vast temporal disruptions within the Boundless Void.
“Martial Ancestor? Tenth Stage?”
Tianzhi True Lord was fraught with fear.
He had, not long ago, gathered a group of Evil Gods to attack Taiyin Sovereign, even venturing into Tianqing World to spy on the Martial Ancestor’s stronghold.
Looking back, it seemed a perilous venture.
“Great Child of the Void, what should we do now?”
Lord Divine Eye mustered his courage and asked cautiously.
He had nearly swallowed that world whole but stopped abruptly due to the temporal fluctuations.
The shock was evident.
Lord Divine Eye’s inquiry turned everyone’s gaze toward the Child of the Void.
“What should we do?”
The Child of the Void remained silent.
Unlike the other Evil Gods who only sensed the source of the temporal fluctuations, the Child of the Void, controlling the Void Secret Realm, perceived much more acutely.
With the power of the Void Secret Realm, his gaze had even fallen onto Tianqing World.
If not for the rich presence of space-time powers within Tianqing World, which made him wary, the Child of the Void might have even considered a forceful investigation.
“Let’s go and see.”
The Child of the Void slowly proposed.
Regardless of whether the Martial Ancestor had achieved the Tenth Stage, he would make the journey.
If the Martial Ancestor truly became a Tenth Stage existence, the Child of the Void would certainly lead the Demonic Divine Masters to demonstrate their allegiance.
Inevitably, as the ruler of the Void Secret Realm, the Child of the Void was acutely aware of the terror a Tenth Stage being could inspire.
Admittedly, with the aid of the Void Secret Realm, the Child of the Void believed he could exhibit the combat power of the Tenth Stage.
But to contend with a true Tenth Stage being… the Child of the Void had no assurance.
If he couldn’t contend, then he must offer his submission.
In the realm of the Evil Gods, the law of the jungle dictated the weak serve the strong.
…
If the Martial Ancestor had not ascended to the Tenth Stage, the Child of the Void had no intention of being hostile; this visit would be to ease relations with the Martial Ancestor.
The current temporal fluctuation, even if not indicative of an ascension to the Tenth Stage, hinted at something akin to handling relics comparable to the Void Secret Realm, a legacy of a Tenth Stage being.
Just as the Child of the Void controlled the Void Secret Realm.
