Chapter 772: The Favor of Destiny

The lady in white heard that and shook her head. Her holy face showed a hint of compassion, “The decision to pardon is not mine to make, but he himself. If he wrongs me, he would just simply offend an insignificant goddess. If he offended all of the divine beings, even if I want to pardon him, there’s no way to even begin.”

Old Master Ma’s face turned solemn. She was right, there was no point to beg for pardon because there was a difference in perspectives.

The Venerable Dragon God cultivated the Path of Heavenly Punishment. It was undoubtedly a fast track to become invincible. However, once the tides turned, the whole situation would come to a dead end.

Now, it was hard for him to bargain and compromise with the beings from the Upper Realm. He could only leave everything on the hands of destiny. Even if the road in front of him led to an abyss, he would have no choice but to jump down eventually!

In the eyes of human beings, the Earth of Heavenly Axiom was beyond sacred. God, The Almighty Lord,…the Earth of Heavenly Axiom was addressed in different forms.

However, to the beings from the Upper Realm, the Earth of Heavenly Axiom was nothing more than a grotto-heaven order. The holy beings had nothing to fear.

The convergence of paths was impossible. Manipulation and transformation were their real intentions.

All the things he had been told to do before by the Venerable Dragon God, including investigating the leyline nodes, seeking help from the Truth Department, adjusting the flow of vitality, and the shrinkage of vitality that aimed to concentrate the vitality only on a few nodes. Those were all clear evidence that the Venerable Dragon God was trying to interfere with the Heavenly Axiom of Earth.

Old Master Ma fell silent. He had already decided deep down that he would make time and discuss this with the Venerable Dragon God, so that at least he wouldn’t be sacrificed and buried together with the Earth of Heavenly Axiom.

In his mind, he knew that the Earth was of no match to the enormous Upper Realm even if the Earth had advanced ideologies and some geographical advantages. However, that was only because the Upper Realm beings were not fully engaged due to the various restrictions in the Upper Realm.

Most of the current effective cultivation systems on Earth came from the Upper Realm. The cultivation history on Earth was only twenty years, and it only started to develop greatly two years back.

Such a shallow cultural background. It was incomparable with the Upper Realm that had an extensive history.

The society of the Upper Realm did not develop a scientific and technological civilization. It was not needed since they had a better and stronger power system.

“Thanks for your clarification. I’ll talk to the Venerable One when I have time. There might be another way out,” Old Master Ma hesitated for a while and said reluctantly.

“That’s great. We have to go with the flow looking at the situation we’re currently in, only then we can come to fruition and live a long peaceful life. Compared to the Upper Realm, this realm’s broader and stretches infinitely. There’s no point to go against the orders of the buddhas and bring upon his own death, all just for the few inches of land in front of him. I hope that you can convey my message, that’s my last earnest admonition to him,” the lady in white shook her head and said.

“That’s very merciful of you, my lady…,” Old Master Ma was moved by her words. She was right. Besides Earth, there were still countless planets out there.

The Venerable Dragon God did not have to be trapped on one planet. Further damage could be prevented if he chose to cultivate another path before it was too late. The situation was still hopeful for him. It would not be a huge problem since he was naturally talented and diligent.

Old Master Ma was someone who clearly distinguished his enemies and his benefactors. The Venerable Dragon God saved his only son Ma Ping, it was a debt of gratitude that he had to repay additionally.

On top of that, he did not wish to see a powerhouse like the Venerable Dragon God drown in the situation dominated by the Upper Realm due to a difference in beliefs. After all, the Venerable Dragon God was among the few who insisted in cultivating the righteous path.

Only by retaining his valuable body could he be of use in the future.

Powerhouses were hard to come by, but as long as the cultivation resources exist, the never-ending vitality would enable the emergence of powerhouses one generation after another.

All the powerhouses like the Venerable Dragon God who insisted on the righteous path were strong. However, only a few of them would never use deceitful and forceful means to steal and bully the weak.

A normal civilian could easily get along with the Venerable Dragon God. They could even go on their daily lives without having to worship and consecrate him.

On the contrary, this would be impossible for all the divine beings and buddhas.

That included Old Master Ma’s very own Mount Indigo Monastery, even if his cultivation was lake-level, and even if he was the master of Taoist Alliance.

The threshold to enter Mount Indigo Monastery was gradually higher. The gate-keeping disciples had to be bucket-level, and even the ones who swept the floors of the yard had to be at least cutlery-level.

The commoners could never even approach the place, only the rich and the powerful could enter.

Conversely, the Venerable Dragon God associated himself with the commoners every day. He would catch all the thieves, ensuring peace and justice without a single complaint.

He was a weird one among the powerhouses, in a good way certainly.

After a brief talk, Old Master Ma asked for permission and left hastily. He had to hurry and find the Venerable Dragon God. Otherwise, the Venerable Dragon God would be caught in deep trouble any moment.

….

In Vigilante A’s farm villa.

The night had passed. Both the host and the guest enjoyed themselves thoroughly, except the big green worm that hadn’t had enough to eat.

Chong Daqing was surprised that Great Azure Dragon was being exceptionally generous by letting it eat as much as it wanted that night…

Although the dishes served towards the end were delicious as well, it seemed half-heartedly cooked compared to the hot pots. Unlike before, such a lucrative offer did not exist.

However, it was not a completely clueless and stupid worm. It knew that it paid a price to feast, at least more than half of its powers were given out.

Any ordinary person would think that it was extremely wasteful, a set of powers just given to someone else so easily.

To Chong Daqing, it was reasonable and acceptable.

It had to digest after eating, so it did not shuttle back to Great Azure Clinic.

Instead, it called out a Big Cotton Ball cloud and laid on top of it to slowly fly back.

Bodhisattva Spirit King did not shuttle back either. He flew along with Chong Daqing, and looked like he was in deep contemplation.

Both of them flew for a while, far away from the boundary of Qi City.

Bodhisattva suddenly said, “Daqing, don’t you have a bit of regret now that you gave your powers to Brother Dragon? If any danger happens to you in the future…”

“No. What’s there to regret?” Chong Daqing said with conviction. “I can freely shuttle back and forth anyway. If anything happens, I can just hide in Ginseng King’s place. Besides that, Great Azure Dragon’s good at fighting. Now that he has my powers, isn’t this a situation where one plus one equals greater than two? I can just ask him for help, that way I can easily lay back and enjoy victory.”

“You appear slow-witted, but I think you’ve great wisdom at times and a pure heart…” Bodhisattva exclaimed. “I’m glad that you’re able to comprehend the situation well. I might have overthink. Brother Dragon’s really in luck, someone else would never be able to be like him. If assembling all the powers into one person was impossible, it would be hard to face the disasters in the future.”

“I don’t understand, Father Chong. Your words are always so obscure. I’m going to sleep for a while now and go to work after. My clinic hasn’t been in operation for ages,” Chong Daqing laid on the Big Cotton Ball, and closed its eyes after a short while.

“Perhaps it’s the odds of destiny, “Bodhisattva shook his head and smiled.

He looked up to the sky, where the floating clouds were transforming into different shapes and sizes.

…

A lot of people knew that Vigilante A had unparalleled battle powers. What they did not know was the System’s speed when it comes to taking actions, it could be said to be the first in the world.

Right after Bodhisattva left, the System flew out the door and went to the last place in Space Passage that had a dimension space.

This Space Passage was located in the southeast area of China, in a large karst cave.

The karst cave was placed hundreds of meters underground, branched out to numerous paths that stretched out to hundreds of kilometers. The place had not been developed, it was a complete wilderness.

Most of the areas in the cave were pitch black.

Only a few of the stone walls were diffusing a faint blue light. It seemed like some glowing moss, and it also seemed like some radioactive mineral.

This karst cave had no exit initially. It only circled underground. Things had changed ever since this place became an entry to the Upper Realm.

A winding underground tunnel that connected to the surface of the Upper Realm. It was secretive and hidden.

The stone wall around the tunnel seemed very bright and smooth. It was apparent that some kind of existence from the Upper Realm had excavated the tunnel. However, the whereabouts of that existence was currently unknown.

They might be dormant, or even beaten to death by Vigilante A. The other possibilities were negligible.

At this moment, Vigilante A was walking around the cave alone and observing the environment to find a suitable spot to build a checkpoint.
