Chapter 1857: The Secret Assist
âYou still want to continue?â The woman was taken aback upon hearing this. âAn Linâs power level is already at the most powerful among normal Heavenly Gods.â
âItâs still not enough⊠I want to nurture him into a being that can threaten even paramount Heavenly GodsâŠâ the human face in the sky replied slowly.
âHave you gone insane?!â The woman glowered at the human face in the sky. âThatâs far too risky! I wonât agree to this!â
That human face was none other than one of the six paramount Heavenly Gods, the Heavenly Heaven God.
The extraordinarily beautiful woman with green hair was the Heavenly Life Goddess.
âDonât worry; my divination tells me that even if An Lin becomes a match for one of the paramount Heavenly Gods, the human race will still become extinct in the near future. They wonât be able to stand up against the combined power of the three paramount Heavenly Gods.â The Heavenly Heaven Godâs expression remained indifferent.
âYour Heavenly Divination Technique is perfectly accurate, but that only applies to events taking place under the Heavenly Dao. You canât take into account things that transcend beyond the Heavenly Dao.â The Heavenly Life Goddess was still quite hesitant.
âItâs alright, even if things develop out of control, we still have that final technique. Do you think anyone can vanquish our final trump card?â the Heavenly Heaven God insisted.
The Heavenly Life Goddess fell silent.
âThink about it. If Light, Sea, and Earth all survive even after the human race has been annihilated, our plan to destroy all living beings in the world wonât be able to progress smoothly. We need two of them to perishâŠâ the Heavenly Heaven God urged in a meaningful and heartfelt manner.
Another long silence followed.
Tree leaves rustled in the wind.
A few ethereal cries sounded from the branches up above.
The Heavenly Life Goddess stared into the horizon with her dreamy, orange eyes, which were as dazzling as the setting sun yet as bright as stars, giving the onlooker a sense of entrancement.
âSighâŠâ A resigned sigh finally escaped her lips.
âWhat do you need me to do?â the Heavenly Life Goddess asked.
The Heavenly Heaven God replied, âAn Lin is able to absorb the powers of the Heavenly Gods, right? Then letâs give him what he wants⊠Metal, wood, water, fire, earth. I can already sense that he has collected metal, water, fire, and earth, so all heâs missing is wood. Give him a wood-type Heavenly God.â
The Heavenly Life Goddess: ââŠâ
âBy the way, make sure itâs not too obvious. Donât let him realize that weâre giving him free presents,â the Heavenly Heaven God added.
The Heavenly Life Goddess massaged her brows with an exhausted, exasperated expression, but she still nodded.
In the West Sea Alliance.
The Immortal Land Above Water had been moved to the border of the West Sea.
The sudden appearance of such a colossus on the border of the continent alerted many coastal-dwelling living beings.
There was a massive pillar of water supporting a gargantuan continent. This was a unique sight even on the boundless Tai Chu Continent.
An Lin sat on a lounge chair and sunbathed as he sampled Lan Xiaoniâs cooking with relish.
âBig Boss An Lin, what do you think?â Lan Xiaoni was a little uneasy.
âThis sashimi is very smooth and delicious, and it has retained its moisture and freshness. Furthermore, all impurities have been removed, so it could be said that this dish is flawless. The addition of the Water Emperor Sauce as a condiment is a masterstroke. Itâs very delicious!
âI didnât think your cooking skills would be this good, Underling Lan,â An Lin sampled the sashimi as he praised with a smile.
A vibrant smile appeared on Lan Xiaoniâs face, and her heart was filled with a sense of accomplishment. âIf you like it, I can make it for you every day.â
âThat would be great!â An Lin was elated.
This was the most delicious seafood he had ever had.
The texture, the taste, and even the presentation were all exemplary.
Lan Xiaoni supported her chin in her hand before delivering a slice of translucent sashimi into her mouth using a pair of chopsticks.
âHmm⊠Itâs so delicious!â Her eyes narrowed with enjoyment.
For some reason, she felt like it tasted even better than normal.
The two of them sampled the seafood, and before they knew it, a day had passed.
The next day.
An Lin was back to full health.
âBig Boss An Lin, I want to investigate the hole in the West Sea with you,â Lan Xiaoni insisted with a firm expression.
An Linâs brows furrowed slightly. âItâs very dangerous thereâŠâ
Lan Xiaoni showed An Lin the divine symbol on the back of her hand with a smile on her face. âDonât forget that I am the paramount master of water, which makes me even more powerful than the average Heavenly God. I wonât weigh you down.
âFurthermore, I am the leader of the West Sea Alliance. I have a responsibility to eradicate all things that may be of detriment to the West Sea.â Lan Xiaoni refused to yield.
An Lin thought about it for a moment and decided that there really werenât that many enemies who could threaten Lan Xiaoni, so he decided to let her come along.
âAlright, but you have to promise me that if we encounter any substantial danger, you have to run away,â An Lin urged.
âAlright, I promise.â Lan Xiaoni nodded with a smile.
Thus, the two of them traveled toward the hole in the depths of the West Sea.
Along the way, Lan Xiaoni hurled a series of large bubbles into the sky.
According to her, these bubbles acted as surveillance devices to scout for enemies, and each bubble could survey an area with a radius of over five thousand kilometers.
Of course, these bubbles could only survey the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army. The mysterious and powerful Heavenly Gods had countless ways to avoid detection from these bubbles, which was why Lan Xiaoni was caught off guard and forced into a three-on-one battle in the first place.
After flying for a while, the two of them finally saw the hole in the sea.
From a distance, it looked as if there was a piece missing from the boundless, blue ocean.
A peculiar forcefield enshrouded the surroundings and managed to disrupt even An Linâs divine sense. The forcefield was very chaotic, and upon approaching the hole, it gave one a perpetual sinking sensation⊠They would sink relentlessly into depravity, and in the end, even their consciousness would descend into nothingness, and they would fall into an eternal slumber.
It could be said that living beings below Return to Void Stage wouldnât even be able to remain conscious here.
âWe deployed five teams to investigate the hole, and the last team even included a Return to Void Stage mighty figure who had attained the power of the divine dao, but all of them disappeared with no exceptionâŠâ Lan Xiaoniâs expression was quite grave.
An Lin nodded. âLetâs see what lies within this hole. Take care and follow me.â
A faint smile appeared on Lan Xiaoniâs face as she looked at An Linâs reliable back. âAlright, Big Boss An Lin.â
A forcefield of this caliber was not enough to affect An Lin and Lan Xiaoni.
The two of them arrived at the center of the massive, bottomless hole. This was a pitch-black hole with a radius of close to five hundred kilometers, and an incessant, loud rumbling could be heard from seawater crashing down into the hole. It was very spectacular, but it was also quite terrifying. It was as if all of the seawater in the entire West Sea would not be able to fill this hole.
They began to slowly descend and explore this hole.
