Chapter 1728: Heavenly Deities Choosing Successors

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Shocked expressions could be seen on the faces of people in Qin Wentian’s group. They would be the ones inheriting the wills of the heavenly deities? Never in their wildest dreams would they have thought of this.

The lofty heavenly deities at the peak were all legendary existences. They didn’t even know what tier of cultivation the Heavenly Deity Realm belonged to. And right now, they actually encountered such a heaven-defying bout of good fortune by following Qin Wentian.

“As expected of the Saint Lord.” The experts of the Battle Saint Tribe all had gratitude in their hearts towards Qin Wentian. Seems like the saint lord of this generation might be even able to create history. Who could have thought that he would be the inheritor spoken of in the prophecy, the successor of this world. The Saint Lord of this generation wasn’t just the saint lord of their Battle Saint Tribe, he had many other responsibilities on his shoulders as well. Also, upon seeing these wills of ancient heavenly deities before them, all of them seemed to be even more terrifying compared to their Battle Saint Tribe in their glorious past.

“Now that this buried world has reappeared, does that mean that the people from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms have arrived?” A heavenly deity asked.

“They came and are currently inside the ancient battlefield. But because they don’t know the situation here, we managed to get here faster than them. I’ve already fought against a heavenly deity from the Winged God Race by borrowing Qin Wentian’s body while that winged deity borrowed the body of one of his descendants.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity spoke. “In addition, more and more experts from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms are descending here to enter the ancient battlefield. Even though Ancient Azure Mystic is boundlessly vast, their people would be everywhere. Given how many years Azure Mystic has been sealed, the people here are simply too weak. Those before all of you right now are the rulers of the current Azure Mystic, with Qin Wentian as the overlord, the Heaven Empyrean of Azure Mystic.”

“Seems like we have no other choices.” Somebody spoke. They were filled with doubt about this group of emperors from Azure Mystic standing before them, they didn’t know if these people were qualified enough to inherit their wills or not. But since they were the rulers of the current Azure Mystic, the heavenly deities could only choose them.

“Ever since the beginning, there are dao elements from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms descending to the lower worlds to seek out outstanding geniuses to be their successors. It has been so for countless generations, and all of this was done to nurture the strongest experts. I wonder if there are still dao elements now. In any case, we would soon be picking our own inheritors to accept our inheritance. This is really very similar to the dao elements in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. Although I’m worried about their level of talent, I know we still have to try.”

“Alright. You guys release your astral souls and show me your strength. Let us see if any of you are suitable to inherit the wills of any of the heavenly deities here.” The Futian Battle God spoke to everyone. Qin Wentian brought quite a lot of people here, yet there are not a lot of heavenly deities’ will here. Next, the heavenly deities themselves would be the one choosing who they want their inheritor to be.

Everyone felt somewhat nervous, but their hearts also had anticipation. They released their astral souls and bloodline powers, doing their best to display their strength.

The Futian Battle God noticed an extremely imposing figure that resembled a war god. After some moments, he glanced at the Battle Saint Tribe and spoke, “You guys are all from the same tribe? You seem to all be from the Battle Saint Tribe of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.”

“Senior, you know of our tribe?” One of the experts in the Battle Saint Tribe had an emotional look on his face. They already knew that these wills belonged to the heavenly deities of Ancient Azure Mystic, yet the heavenly deities actually knew of their origin. This meant that this particular heavenly deity before them might have saw the glorious and majestic past of their tribe before.

“I know of it. The Battle Saint Tribe is an extremely ancient clan. They are known to battle against the heavens and are one of the truly powerful clans in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. What happened? Why are you guys in Azure Mystic?” Futian Battle God asked.

“Senior, my tribe no longer exist, we can only struggle at death’s door and came to Azure Mystic to hide from danger.” An aged expert from the Battle Saint Tribe spoke with sorrow. Although they had cultivated for many years and were on the level of old monsters, when they heard others speaking of the glorious past of their tribe, they were still overcome by emotions. So it turned out that the ancient records didn’t lie to them, they were truly an ancient and powerful tribe in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms but had declined so much to their current states now.

“I see. In that case, I, Futian, am proficient in battle. One of you from the Battle Saint Tribe can inherit my will then.” Futian Battle God spoke. After that, he selected one of them to inherit his will, while at the same time, he taught the others how to cultivate, sharing his experience with them.

The experts of the Battle Saint Tribe all had emotional looks on their faces, they initially wanted to speak but they suddenly seemed to have thought of something and glanced towards Qin Wentian. Qin Wentian understood what was in their hearts, he immediately stated, “Senior, it is not easy for the Battle Saint Tribe to survive generations through the generations. Right now, I’m the Saint Lord of their tribe for this current generation, due to being entrusted by the second generation Saint Lord. Now that they can inherit your will, this junior is filled with endless gratitude.”

When they heard Qin Wentian’s words, the people of the Battle Saint Tribe no longer existed and all of them stood up and bowed to the Futian Battle God, “Many thanks, senior.”

After that, the eyes of another supremely powerful heavenly deity landed on Jun Mengchen. “Innate divine body, you have a divine body named the world god body and is similar to me back when I was still alive. Do you want to inherit my will.”

That heavenly deity spoke and flew towards Jun Mengchen. The other heavenly deities all laughed when they saw how much of a hurry that heavenly deity was in. “We all know this young man is suitable to inherit your will, no one will snatch with you. Who would have thought that there are several good seedlings in this batch.”

Jun Mengchen clenched his fist as an emotional look appeared in his eyes. “Junior is willing.”

“Mhm, the potential of these seedlings are indeed higher than we imagined.” A female heavenly deity smiled. She was clad in a fiery long robe, exuding boundless elegance. Her eyes shone with the red light of blood, giving her an almost demonic charm. She smiled at Bai Qing, “Little doll, I used to be the Blood Refining Empress. Are you willing to inherit my will?”

Bai Qing’s eyes gleamed. She was also able to obtain the inheritance from one of the heavenly deities? She glanced at Qin Wentian, wanting to seek his opinion.

“This silly lass.” Qin Wentian smiled at Bai Qing. He then spoke, “Thank you senior, this little doll is my younger sister. With the care and guidance of senior, this junior is truly touched and filled with gratitude.”

“Mhm.” The Blood Refining Empress calmly glanced at Qin Wentian, feeling a little unhappy. She wanted to accept Bai Qing as an inheritor yet she actually glanced to Qin Wentian for approval. What a loss of face.

“Little Qing, why are you not paying respects to your master yet?” Qin Wentian spoke.

Bai Qing was naturally extremely obedient to Qin Wentian. She stared at the Blood Refining Empress and bowed, “Disciple Bai Qing pays my respect to master.”

“Are you willing to cultivate with me and become my disciple?” An old woman glanced at Qing`er.

Qing`er’s beautiful eyes glanced over. Earlier, she has already felt the eyes of this old woman on her. To think that she would really be chosen. She then glanced at Matriarch Ji beside her as she replied, “Senior, this is my master Matriarch Ji who has been guiding me in cultivation. If I am to follow senior, I have to first obtain my master’s approval.”

“Mhm, excellent.” The old woman nodded as a satisfied smile appeared on her face. Despite facing the temptation of becoming the disciple of a heavenly deity, Qing`er still didn’t forget to seek the approval of her current master. Her temperament was truly rare, this old woman also didn’t want to accept a disciple that would forget past kindnesses although she didn’t really hope for anything.

“Qing`er, your current strength is not in anyway inferior to mine. Your talent is higher too. I’ve already nothing more to guide you on. Now, since there’s a senior willing to accept you as her disciple, this is truly a glorious matter. Why are you still not paying respect to your new master?” Matriarch Ji was someone that was very understanding.

“Master.” Qing`er’s beautiful eyes glanced at Matriarch Ji. She could feel a faint disappointment from Matriarch Ji despite her words.

“Good disciples are always bound to surpass their masters in the end. Since the two of you have karma from a master-and-disciple relationship, you can follow me to cultivate as well.” That old woman heavenly deity spoke to Matriarch Ji.

Matriarch Ji started, after that an emotional look appeared on her face, “Many thanks, senior.”

“Qing`er thanks senior,” Qing`er also smiled happily. It would be the best if this was the case.

“She is the Voidsky Divine Lady. Work hard in the future.” The Skybreak Heavenly Deity spoke to Qing`er with a solemn look on his face. Clearly, this old woman had an extraordinary status back when she was alive and was also a peak character.

“Junior thanks Senior Divine Lady.” Qin Wentian also bowed.

“Why are you thanking me?” The old woman glanced at Qin Wentian with a puzzled look on her face.

“Senior, Qing`er is my wife.” Qin Wentian revealed an awkward smile. The old woman glanced at her, “You are really very fortunate.”

Qin Wentian’s expression grew even more awkward but he was happy in his heart.

“These devil cultivators should follow me.” A terrifying devil-path heavenly deity spoke, radiating a terrifying might. Qin Wentian has been waiting for him to speak because his figure was too outstanding. It was clear that he was a cultivator of the devil-path with a single glance and this heavenly deity naturally hoped that the experts of the Myriad Devil Islands could obtain his inheritance. And now, he had indeed made his choice. The peak-stage devil emperors of the Myriad Devil Islands were all proficient in different things. It’s normal that this devil-path heavenly deity wanted to accept them all to guide them.

The devil cultivators were naturally happy too. They paid their respect while sighing in admiration in their heart. By following Qin Wentian, the Devil Sovereign of this era, they would truly manage to gain different experiences.

“You are a heaven devouring beast?” A white-robed heavenly deity glanced at Little Rascal. His eyes were extremely terrifying, revolving like wheels, seemingly capable of devouring everything in existence.

“Senior, this little fellow is someone I encountered by chance. It’s said that he should be a royal-blooded heaven devouring beast.” Qin Wentian spoke.

“Indeed, his bloodline is a very pure-graded one from the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. You can follow me.” The magnificent figure in white spoke.

“Are you powerful?” Little Rascal’s juvenile voice rang out. After that, the white-robed heavenly deity started before he started laughing uproariously. The other heavenly deities also laughed. They managed to endure for countless years, their wills refused to dissipate. Were they powerful or not?

“Wentian, what are they laughing at?” Little Rascal stared dumbly at Qin Wentian.

Qin Wentian was so angered that he rapped Little Rascal on his head, causing Little Rascal to reveal a look of grievance.

“Stop shamelessly acting cute.” Qin Wentian was speechless. He glanced at all the heavenly deities and awkwardly spoke. “This fellow is still very young and isn’t very sensible. Seniors, please don’t take offense.”

“I feel he is very interesting, and is worthy of my instruction.” The white-robed heavenly deity had a look of interest on his face, causing Little Rascal to shiver. Why did he suddenly feel that there was a conspiracy somewhere?

“The people of your clan can inherit my will. I will teach you all cultivation, including that vermillion bird over there.” A female heavenly deity glanced at the Southern Phoenix Matriarch and the ancient phoenix beside her. This female heavenly deity had a pair of phoenix wings behind her back, she was clearly extraordinary and a bloodline that was much higher in terms of grade. The Southern Phoenix Matriarch and her clan members were naturally extremely happy.

“Junior thanks senior.” The Southern Phoenix Matriarch softly spoke, exuding grace and beauty. As expected of the matriarch of a powerful clan.

Purgatory started, she didn’t expect that her true form would be seen through by a single glance so easily. She glanced at Qin Wentian beside her, causing all the heavenly deities here to be speechless. Seems like Qin Wentian’s position in the hearts of these people were truly transcendent. What sort of characters they were? All of them were heavenly deities. And now when they wanted to take in disciples and find successors, these fellows actually didn’t agree right away, their first reaction would be to instinctively look at Qin Wentian. The heavenly deities were simply at a loss for words.

Qin Wentian felt even more awkward when he sensed the gazes of all the heavenly deities on him. He also didn’t know what to say to his friends and close ones. Why did all of them turn to look at him? Had they gone silly? They should know better than anyone else what a valuable opportunity this is!
