The Ascension of Contracted Spirits

Chapter 1021 - 399: Divine Trace Lineage - Tai Eclipse Demon_2

"But we know nothing, we can only describe what was just mentioned..."

"What a pity," Ye Liuying felt deeply regretful.

If there had been a clear enemy, Mu Yi Hanba would not have been so perplexed.

The most terrifying thing is always the unknown; its endless possibilities and mysticism, filled with variables, make anyone uneasy.

"Your Excellency... can you tell us about the situation in the Heavenly Realm?"

"We were born there and left there; hundreds of thousands of years have passed in the blink of an eye. We really want to know how it has evolved..."

Guang Ning, who had distinctly feminine characteristics, asked with anticipation.

She looked towards Ye Hanjun, who then replied:

"I’m afraid I cannot grant your wish."

"The Heavenly Realm is now rather despondent; ever since the ’Eighteen-Winged Divine Angel’ of the Near Ancient Era fell, the Angel Clan has been in disarray."

"The Holy Angels once protected by them are now being ruthlessly hunted down by the descendants of the Light Witch God. Even if there are survivors, they are mostly remnants, hardly forming a climate."

"This..." Guang Ning took several steps back, her hopeful gaze instantly dimming:

"Is this the fate of our clan? Without the Divine Angels to support us, do Holy Angels find it so difficult to survive?"

"What about Goddess Ba, Your Honor? She protected us for an entire Cosmic Era; is She still alive?"

"Goddess Ba is in a state of hibernation, similar to your seal."

Ye Hanjun said gravely, "After some time, She should revive."

"At that time, the truth of those years may well be revealed, and we are all looking forward to that day."

"Goddess Ba is still alive... That’s wonderful!"

Guang Ning, Guang Xin, and Guang Shi, seemed to have suddenly found their backbone.

They breathed a sigh of relief, their anxious emotions greatly alleviated.

"Have them sent to the domain of the Golden Crow; Jin Tianran will arrange for them properly."

Mu Yi Hanba broke free from the heavy chains of thought and came to his senses, earnestly entrusted:

"The founder of the Qian Family once helped me; I owe him a favor."

"Now that his descendants survive, alongside eighteen Holy Light Angels, they have enough to continue the lineage and restore the past glory."

"Zzzzip!!"

The Wheel of Deep Red, revealing its presence from a state of nothingness, spat fire towards Mu Yi Hanba, its playful manner immediately drawing children’s attention.

Unless necessary, it would not easily reveal itself nor use its world laws to assist Ye Hanjun and the others.

But occasionally, like in the current situation, sacrificing some precious energy, it can be of great use.

"Boom—"

The space tore apart, a massive wormhole spanning heaven and earth opened like a monster poised to devour everyone’s souls.

Clusters of flames rose beneath the feet of the descendants of the Qian Family.

The Holy Light Angels were starkly present; they didn’t dare move and could only observe the unfolding events with shocked and confused gazes.

"Slurp—"

Twelve children under ten years of age, six young people who had not long awakened their authority, along with eight Supreme-level Holy Light Angels.

And the Sun Temple, a supreme treasure given to the Qian Family by Goddess Ba; since the Qian Family still exists, it still holds value.

Ye Hanjun, Ye Liuying, Mu Shoucong, the fiery saint, the juvenile Golden Crow...

All present witnessed the opening of the wormhole, and shortly afterward, the childish voices and the sacred aura of the angels were completely eradicated from the current space-time.

The world—resumed tranquility.

Mu Yi Hanba stood in place, quietly watching the pit left after the disappearance of the Sun Temple.

After a long while, he returned to the Contract Space, and once again used the Flesh Furnace and Soul Spring to compensate for the shortcomings of inadequate longevity.

Ye Hanjun, riding the fiery saint, set off on his journey again.

Today’s Solar Abyss, although not seven-tenths of the Ancient Cosmos, is probably even larger than the Ghost Lamp Abyss.

So, although there was a Supreme-level riding beast for transportation, Ye Hanjun’s inspection and journey around the realm was still lengthy.

Along the way, he witnessed the customs of foreign lands and observed the absurd shapes of creatures.

In Burning Land City, there is a group of humans hiding underground, numbering over ten thousand.

They had only three Saints, along with three Guardian Saint Spirits.

Such a scale, easily destroyed by any slightly mightier and fiercer Supreme King.

But they were very cautious, always living in a breath-holding manner, and surviving to this day is truly incredible.

The Avoid-Water Golden-Eyed Lion, an extremely famed Ancient Demon with power over water.

Surprisingly, it’s an indigenous species of the Solar Abyss. In this world woven with heat and blazing light, it has plainly opened a secret haven like a surreal paradise, creating a bizarre landscape that left a fresh memory for Ye Hanjun.

Door Elephant, Sitting Turtle, Looking Monkey, Sky Patrolling Bird.

The four great Holy Beasts born in the Near Ancient Era, clustering together to guard a region, each with a lineage alone, but always peaceful until now.

Red Bee King, a malicious insect beast, slain.

Fire-Nosed Tree Lord, a wicked human cultivator, slain.Purple Gall Demon King, who openly challenged Mu Yi Hanba, slain.

...

Unawares, Ye Hanjun arrived at the Solar Abyss, nearing a hundred years.

The bloodline conversion of the Corpse Dragon Lady Shi Ju was still in its early stages, far from a complete transformation.

The missing seventh candidate Hanba, however, was found among the corpses.

The return of Shi Qiong brought back a Holy Corpse that had devoured a Hanba without falling.

As it had already nurtured a divinity within itself, if assisted by the flesh of Goddess Ba, the possibility of further evolving into a complete form was very high, and Mie Quan, Shi Qiong, and Mu Yi all held great expectations for it.

Everything was proceeding methodically when suddenly, turbulence arose.
