Chapter 2146: Calm Before the Storm

“Embrace the sun!”

Xuanyuan Cheng stood atop the Full Moon Mountain and spread his arms toward the rising sun in the distance.

His handsome face was illuminated by the warm sunlight, making him appear especially lively and vigorous.

“Big Brother Cheng, you don’t need to continue embracing the sun. I’ve already healed your wounds,” Xiao Hong said in a sweet voice as she wobbled her cute red head from side to side.

“Elder Xiao Hong, it was you who inspired me,” Xuanyuan Cheng said as he gazed at the rising sun with squinted eyes.

“I inspired you?” Xiao Hong asked with a confused expression.

“That’s right. You allowed me to feel light.

“By embracing the sun every day, I can feel the true meaning of light and heat,” Xuanyuan Cheng said with a smile. “This is extremely helpful to my Ten-Thousand Spirits Explosion Dao. I can already feel a loosening of my cultivation base. I need to continue with this advance!”

Xiao Hong was stunned. “You’ve found fortune out of misfortune.”

“This is all thanks to Elder Xiao Hong,” Xuanyuan Cheng said with an expression of gratitude.

“Haha, there’s no need to thank me. Since you can understand the beauty of the sun and embrace the sun, you’re my brother from now on!” Xiao Hong said with a sweet smile.

Xuanyuan Cheng and Xiao Hong happily conversed about the sun.

“Oh, that’s right. Do you feel that the sun today is brighter than yesterday?” Xuanyuan Cheng asked.

“Yes, that’s the power of light. The Heavenly Light Goddess is undergoing a qualitative transformation.” Xiao Hong was extremely calm as she uttered these words that would shock countless beings.

Xuanyuan Cheng was instantly stunned. Only after a short while did he retrieve his voice transmission talisman and make a call to Bai Ling, informing her of the transformation of the Heavenly Light Goddess.

At this moment, within Yue Tong City.

An Lin was currently investigating the black orb.

“Little Xie, do you really not know the use of this black orb?”

“I don’t have any memory of this black orb.”

An Lin sighed upon hearing this.

He knew that there was definitely a reason behind the Heavenly Darkness God leaving the Evil-Slaying Sword and black orb for him.

Right now, he already understood the use of the Evil-Slaying Sword. This was a freakish sword that could either crush the heavens or mend the heavens. Meanwhile, as an equally important item, it made no sense that there was only a small clip contained inside the black orb…

However, regardless of what An Lin did to the black orb, he was unable to determine what on earth it was. In fact, he had even used his Heavenly Darkness Power on it.

A white glow flashed across his eyes as he tightly held onto the black orb.

Divine Inspection Technique!

“Information: This is a round and smooth black orb.”

An Lin: “…”

Do I need you to tell me this?

I can see this with my own f*cking eyes!

However, there was nothing he could do about this, so he could only continue with his own investigation.

Ever since his system had gone on strike, there was nothing he could do about his cultivation. Thus, he could only sit in the corner and play around with this black orb. He hoped that he could discover something important from this black orb.

This was his only aspiration.

Meanwhile, Xu Xiaolan was very understanding as she helped him with the other matters. For example, if she had free time, she would cook him some meals and also feed him some spirit fruits and immortal fruits. If she felt like it, she would even give him a massage.

An Lin couldn’t have asked for a better wife.

In any case, his days were carefree and fulfilling.

This was until Bai Ling called him through his voice transmission talisman.

“An Lin, there’s something that you need to inform the higher-ups of the army about. The Heavenly Light Goddess is becoming more and more powerful.” Bai Ling cut straight to the point.

An Lin’s heart shuddered, and he asked, “Are you certain?”

“Xiao Hong’s sense of light and the Purple Star’s sense of dao have already confirmed this. The Heavenly Light Goddess is most likely preparing some huge move…” Bai Ling said with a serious expression.

“Women who have been pushed onto their back foot are truly terrifying…” An Lin said with emotion.

Right now, it could be said that the Heavenly Light Goddess didn’t even have a single Supreme Heavenly God as an ally. However, she was still going to face the powerful beings of the Tai Chu Continent as well as the remaining four Supreme Heavenly Gods. Thus, it was hard to predict what kind of crazy thing she might do.

“Alright, I understand. I’ll inform all of the higher-ups,” An Lin said.

By higher-ups, An Lin was referring to the super-mighty beings at the Dao Integration Stage. After all, if one were too weak, it would be useless even if they knew about this matter. Moreover, it might even trigger unnecessary panic.

“Oh, that’s right. Cyril and Chen Chen are both in the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace. What did they say about this?” An Lin asked.

“They said that they can’t deal with this, and that they’re only responsible for guarding the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace,” Bai Ling replied.

An Lin blinked and said, “Tsk… The enemies are frenziedly growing in power, yet the members of the Heaven Crushing Sect have become cowards who only care about guarding their home…”

A new challenge was arising. Although he didn’t know what the Heavenly Light Goddess was preparing, it was abundantly clear that her actions would pose a tremendously great threat to them.

“That’s not entirely the case,” Bai Ling said. “Cyril and Chen Chen genuinely can’t leave the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace. After all, there must be two God of Creation Stage divine beings guarding the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace to ensure that the heaven crushing plan isn’t disturbed. In terms of strategy, their decision is correct.”

“However, that means more pressure for those of us battling against the Heavenly Gods,” An Lin said with emotion.

News of the Heavenly Light Goddess becoming more powerful started to spread throughout the higher-ups of the Heaven Crushing United Army.

In fact, some super-mighty beings even deployed Return to Void Stage suicide squads to scout the situation of the Eastern Heavenly Gate.

However, without exception, all of these squads were exterminated by the Heavenly Gods that guarded the areas surrounding the Eastern Heavenly Gate.

Everything happening inside the Eastern Heavenly Gate was shrouded in a sea of light. It was as mysterious as could be.

The higher-ups of the Nine States United Army also came to a realization. Unless a large-scale battle broke out again, there was simply no way that they could find out what the Heavenly Light Goddess was planning.

However, this was an extremely awkward situation. If they wanted to obstruct the Heavenly Light Goddess’ actions, they would have to attack the Eastern Heavenly Gate. However, was the Nine States United Army powerful enough to breach the defenses of the Eastern Heavenly Gate?

Clearly not.

During the previous battle, they had only been able to defeat the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army because the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace had kept the attention of a Supreme Heavenly God as well as four other Heavenly Gods. Now that these Heavenly Gods were all at the Eastern Heavenly Gate, how could the Nine States United Army breach its defenses? Moreover, they no longer had the help of Cyril and Chen Chen.

As such, it would be useless even if they fought to the death!

Thus, an awkward situation ensued.

They were clearly aware that the Heavenly Light Goddess was becoming more and more powerful, yet all they could do was sit by idly and watch. They didn’t dare to charge over and interrupt her transformation.

Inside the Heaven Crushing Glazed Palace.

A powerful column of energy soared into the clouds.

Within a pristine hall.

Chen Chen was currently sitting cross-legged in the center of a vortex. He wore an anxious expression as he gazed through the transparent roof at the sky.

“What are you worried about?”

A soft and ethereal voice traveled into his ears.

At the same time, Xue Yan—who was dressed in a stunning white and blue dress—slowly walked toward the lonely-looking youth. Her expression was gentle, and her voice was warm.

“I’m worried about An Lin.”

Chen Chen never hid anything from Xue Yan.

Xue Yan faltered for a moment before pouting and saying, “He’s already become the Heavenly Darkness God, and his power is already far greater than before. What are you still worried about?”

Chen Chen shook his head and replied, “The more powerful one is, the more hostility they attract. In fact, I can’t say for sure whether the Supreme Heavenly Gods will use the trump cards they reserved for us on An Lin instead…”

Xue Yan’s expression changed slightly, and she said, “An Lin’s threat to the heavens is already this great?”

“It’s even greater than you think,” Chen Chen replied.

Xue Yan pondered for a moment before saying, “But this should be good news for the Heaven Crushing Sect! If the enemies are focused on An Lin, then won’t it be easier for us to crush the heavens?”

“What was our original intention when founding the Heaven Crushing Sect?” Chen Chen asked.

“So we’re not oppressed by the Heavenly Dao,” Xue Yan replied without even thinking.

“Exactly. Our intention is to destroy the Heavenly Dao. Regarding which Heavenly Disciple achieves this, this isn’t important. Thus, if our enemies are targeting the Heavenly Disciple with the highest chance of crushing the heavens, what have we—the Heavenly Disciples with a low chance of crushing the heavens—got to be happy about?” Chen Chen asked.

Xue Yan was stumped upon hearing this. “This…”
