Supreme Uprising
chapter-1137

1137 Flaw Supreme

Luo Yunyang traveled hastily across Tianding Realm, his mind meticulously planning the words he should say upon meeting the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor.

Surely, the reason the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor wanted to meet him so urgently was because of the Sky Wielding Crystal he now had in possession. Luo Yunyang was extremely hesitant to use the Sky Wielding Crystal because of the hostility it had for the attribute regulator.

While the Sky Wielding Crystal had its strengths, Luo Yunyang still trusted the attribute regulator, which had boundless potential.

Furthermore, Yuan Zi’s words had sent shudders down his spine.

While he was not aware of the secrets encompassed within the Sky Wielding Crystal, judging by what Yuan Zi had said, Luo Yunyang was aware that there were definitely defects within the Sky Wielding Crystal that could not be made up for.

Was the Taiyi Yuan Venerate really the pinnacle of all cultivation?

It seemed so. However, how strong was the entity that could destroy entire eras and exterminate the Human Race even when they were at their strongest? What a cultivation base…

While these thoughts were going through his mind, Luo Yunyang entered the Nine Cauldron Training Ground. Following the previous incident, when he had entered, struck and intimidated Tianding Realm, nobody had the courage to stop him from entering.

“Greetings, Human Ruler!” Red Moon Child welcomed Luo Yunyang. There was no difference from the first time he had welcomed him.

Luo Yunyang nodded at Red Moon Child as he allowed him to lead the way. On the way, Luo Yunyang felt as though there was something Red Moon Child strongly wanted to say to him but kept to himself.

While Red Moon Child very much wanted to say something, this urge was suppressed by apprehension. Luo Yunyang had also been through that stage before and knew the reasons behind this apprehension. Thus, he did not probe any further.

“Greetings, Divine Ancestor!” The gigantic Nine Cauldrons had yet to return to the Nine Cauldron Training Ground, but the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor sat high up on a platform made of clouds.

The Six Heavenly Rulers stood, flanking him on both sides as they watched Luo Yunyang intently.

Of course, this was because they were mainly interested in the Sky Wielding Crystal he was holding.

“My respects, Divine Ancestor.” Luo Yunyang bowed respectfully without paying any attention to the others.

“Let us stop the formalities,” said the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor calmly. However, as soon as the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor had finished speaking, Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky said icily, “Human Ruler, can you kindly explain to me why you entered the Tianding Realm to kill Dongfang Jianming and the others?”

After all, Dongfang Jianming had been the junior of Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky. It was only natural for Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky to be concerned about his death.

“Dongfang Jianming defied the imperial decree so he deserved death!” Luo Yunyang looked Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky in the eye and defended himself.

“You…” said Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky as he pointed at Luo Yunyang. He initially wanted to chide Luo Yunyang for overstepping his boundaries, but he quickly retracted his words.

Although the Human Ruler’s Imperial Court and the Heavenly Court each had control over their own domain, in fact, it was Luo Yunyang who had authority over everything!

“Enough, that matter is already over. It is a commendable feat for the Human Ruler to be able to prevent the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler from entering the realms of the Human Race,” the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor said in an unquestionable tone.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky would definitely not disobey his master over Dongfang Jianming. Furthermore, he also had more important matters to take care of.

“Divine Ancestor, I not only prevented the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler from entering the boundaries of the Human Race, but I also annihilated the entire Divine Incarcerate Race,” Luo Yunyang said before his face broke into a smile.

His words made Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky’s face darken even more. They had hidden the fact that they had been ambushed by the Mysterious Underworld Race and nearly caused a greater crisis for the Human Race.

Luo Yunyang had easily resolved this crisis and managed to destroy the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler, who had conspired with the First Ancient Yuan Underworld Lord.

This showed how obviously incompetent they had been compared to Luo Yunyang.

“The Supreme Incarcerate Ruler was a top-notch opponent, so foiling his plans was impressive. However, I would never have expected him to die at your hands. That is simply…” the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor said gratefully.

Before he could finish his sentence, however, Luo Yunyang was able to decipher his thoughts based on his first words.

“Divine Ancestor, while I admit that the Human Ruler does have an exceptional cultivation level, I still think it is almost impossible that he has killed the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler. I believe that the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler might have offended some higher authority and suffered these consequences.”

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the rest understood that if they wanted to acquire the treasure that was in Luo Yunyang’s hands, they would definitely have to be dishonest about giving credit to him for killing the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler.

Otherwise, they would have absolutely no chance of acquiring the Sky Wielding Crystal!

Luo Yunyang glanced at the anxious Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and smiled. “In that case, I should actually swap with Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky so the massive credit for this can be given to him.”

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky had never expected Luo Yunyang’s quick-witted rebuttal. Luo Yunyang’s reply left him red with embarrassment.

He pointed at Luo Yunyang, as if wanting to say something, but was at a loss for words. Upon seeing this, Luo Yunyang continued smiling and said, “In the face of this massive crisis, I must have gotten really lucky since a better fighter helped exterminate the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler as well as the Divine Incarcerate Race!”

These words made Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky extremely uncomfortable, which was visible in his facial expression. After all, they too had felt strongly that a stroke of luck had brought them to their current level.

If massive luck was what had helped Luo Yunyang get through this crisis, then it was also only natural that he should get to continue using the Sky Wielding Crystal.

“You may leave the Sky Wielding Crystal here. I will help you look after it,” the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor said, preventing Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky from going on.

Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky stiffened upon hearing what the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor had said. Although he knew really well that it was wrong of him to chase after something that didn’t belong to him, it was the Sky Wielding Crystal they were talking about!

The Sky Wielding Crystal was priceless. Furthermore, even if they were to be criticized for such a move, they would definitely not give up such a rare opportunity.

“Divine Ancestor, the Sky Wielding Crystal is a rare unparalleled treasure. I do not think it is inappropriate for it to be distributed in this manner,” Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky said. While these words might actually anger the Divine Ancestor, he still found it necessary to say this.

This was the Sky Wielding Crystal after all!

If the Sky Wielding Crystal fell into the hands of Luo Yunyang, the chances of him getting it would be even slimmer.

That wasn’t something he wanted to see.

“We also feel that it is not very appropriate to be distributing the Sky Wielding Crystal in this manner.” The Southwest Heavenly Ruler and the others chimed in.

It was almost impossible for anyone to anger the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor given the level of his cultivation. “What is your opinion in that case?” the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor asked upon hearing the objections of his fellow disciples.

Luo Yunyang watched this whole scene with the same grin on his face. He wanted to see how the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor was going to handle this matter.

“Us disciples all feel that even though it was Luo Yunyang who acquired the Sky Wielding Crystal, we also lent our assistance.”

After he said that, Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky seemed to realize he had said something wrong and added, “It wasn’t just the six of us. Others who came from another Great Era also made significant contributions.”

“If the Divine Ancestor does not give these people due credit and bestows the Sky Wielding Crystal on the Human Ruler, then I’m afraid that even the returnees of the various great eras will feel some discontent.”

“Divine Ancestor, you know that many prominent figures came from various Great Eras. They were actually carefully guided by the elders of their respective sects. If we were to hurt their feelings in this manner, it is likely that they may not fight alongside us in the future.”

“Therefore, I plead with you, Divine Ancestor, to allow us to divide the Sky Wielding Crystal in a way that satisfies everyone,” said the Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, who spoke as though he had everyone’s interest at heart.

Luo Yunyang glanced at Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky, feeling a bad taste in his mouth. He ignored the six pleading individuals and spoke to the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor directly. “If we were to go along with what you guys are saying, does that mean that whoever made the most significant contribution should get to own this? In that case, could you challenge me for the Sky Wielding Crystal?” Luo Yunyang said overbearingly, making Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky immediately tense up.

He had thought of a good excuse, but in the face of such aggressiveness, he finally understood that there was nobody in the Human Race who could match Luo Yunyang in terms of contribution.

In terms of merit, Luo Yunyang had successfully stopped the Supreme Incarcerate Ruler and saved the entire Human Race. In terms of status, Luo Yunyang was the Human Ruler and had a higher status than the six of them. It was also rather difficult for them to match Luo Yunyang in any other aspects.

Of course, one could say that these people were the trusted aides of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor. However, this was not a point they could bring up directly during an argument.

As Yuan Venerate Flowing Sky and the others were starting to get uncomfortable, the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor spoke up calmly. “Alright, this is enough. The Human Ruler has contributed significantly in this matter, so it is only right that he keeps the Sky Wielding Crystal. However, Human Ruler, no matter how good the Sky Wielding Crystal is, it still has a massive flaw.”

“The Supreme Incarcerate Ruler’s self-severance didn’t just reduce his cultivation base from the Taiyi Yuan Venerate considerably. It also left a significant defect in the Sky Wielding Crystal.”

“Human Ruler, it would be hard for you to attain immediate success and become a Taiyi Yuan Venerate even if you were to fuse with the Sky Wielding Crystal. After all, your current cultivation is not even at the level of a half-step Taiyi Yuan Venerate.”

The words of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor made the eyes of the six Heavenly Rulers light up. If Luo Yunyang was unable to attain the status of a Taiyi Yuan Venerate, then they still had a chance.

Luo Yunyang believed the words of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor. After all, it was hard to speak too casually about things like this.

Furthermore, what Yuanzi had said, as well as the attribute regulator’s reaction, had made Luo Yunyang decide not to use the Sky Wielding Crystal.

Now, the words of the Human Race’s Divine Ancestor allowed him to see yet another opportunity.

An opportunity to kill!
