The Lord of the Heavenly Eclipse Palace in the Swallowed Starry Sky

Chapter 117: Planning!

Having reached an agreement and sworn an oath to the supreme rules, the atmosphere between the two is no longer tense, but instead peaceful.

A gentle breeze swept by, bringing a sense of freshness and tranquility, as if it too were celebrating this new alliance.

They sat quietly in the ornately decorated yet ancient-style hall, the surrounding walls shimmering with strange runes, as if silently telling the long story of time.

On the table, exquisite wine glasses held wine that exuded a captivating aroma; the liquid, reflecting the light, resembled flowing amber.

Sitting Mountain Guest still had many questions in his heart, waiting for the Celestial Ancestor to answer them, but now that he had decided to join the human race, Sitting Mountain Guest was no longer in a hurry.

He picked up his wine glass, swirled it gently, and stared at the rippling liquid with a somewhat unfocused gaze, as if lost in deep thought.

Having successfully obtained the reply that the Mountain Dweller would join the human race, Li Yang was no longer in a hurry.

He looked relaxed, a faint smile playing on his lips, as if he were enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.

……

The Mountain-Sitting Guest, no longer maintaining his composure, put down his wine cup, looked directly at Li Yang, and asked the question that had been lingering in his mind for a long time: "Ancestor of Heavenly Eclipse, how did you know I was the God-King of Jin? You haven't answered this question for me yet!"

"Just a guess!" Li Yang revealed a mysterious smile, a smile that seemed to hold endless secrets, making it impossible for anyone to fathom.

"Guess?" The Mountain Guest felt like he was about to spit out a mouthful of blood.

He thought the Celestial Ancestor had confirmed his identity because he was so certain of his words, but he didn't expect that he was just guessing.

"Ancestor of Heavenly Eclipse, do not try to play tricks on me. How can such a thing be based on mere speculation?" The Mountain Guest frowned, his face full of disbelief.

Li Yang smiled gently and said slowly, "From the inheritance I received, there are records of all the powerful beings above the Chaos Realm on the Origin Continent to the present day. The most recent major event on the Origin Continent was the destruction of the Jin Kingdom."

"The whereabouts of the God-King of Jin are unknown; he is suspected to have fled to the Three Thousand Universe Seas."

"Furthermore, your identity as the Mountain Guest is mysterious, closely watched by the original consciousness of the primordial universe, and like the God King of Jin, you are skilled in crafting treasures. Moreover, I discovered that you secretly cultivated a planet like the Mountain and Sea Realm in my human territory, which can enhance people's spiritual realm."

"All the clues point to one possibility: you are the reincarnation of the God-King of Jin!"

"I knew it!" Li Yang said with a smile, a hint of smugness in his eyes.

……

"Indeed, the new generation surpasses the old in chaos; you can't argue with that!" said the Mountain-Sitting Guest with a wry smile, shaking his head helplessly.

"Alright, alright, your insight and deduction are truly astonishing. However, I'm not that concerned about this matter. All I care about is that you avenge me once you're powerful enough. As for everything else, it's not that important."

"By the way, speaking of the Mountain and Sea Realm, the strongest person in the Mountain and Sea Realm right now is my newly accepted disciple, Li Er. After that, based on my observation, the various schools of thought in the Mountain and Sea Realm have some potential," Li Yang said, his eyes revealing a hint of satisfaction and expectation.

"That's right!" The Mountain Guest nodded slightly. "The humans in the Mountain and Sea Realm have existed for over a million years, but their performance is still far from my expectations."

The man sitting on the mountain sighed softly, a hint of disappointment in his voice.

"So what are your plans for this Mountain and Sea Realm?" Li Yang asked again, sitting up straight with a serious expression.

"I intend to let it fend for itself. If no strong enough person meets my requirements is born within a certain time, then my experiment will be considered a failure!" said the Mountain-Sitting Guest, a resolute glint in his eyes.

"I know you want to cultivate a disciple with the potential to become a God-King, but disciples with the potential to become God-Kings are not so easy to find."

"In my opinion, although the people of the Mountain and Sea Realm may not meet your requirements, they still have the potential to become Venerables or even Lords of the Universe. If you don't mind, I think we can lead these people of the Mountain and Sea Realm to join my Treasure Pavilion after my thirteen disciples rise to prominence!" Li Yang looked at the Mountain Guest with sincere eyes and put forward his idea.

"These are minor matters, you can decide them! I'll cultivate them again after you move the Mountain and Sea Realm away!" The Mountain Guest waved his hand, clearly not caring about it. He picked up his wine glass and took another sip of fine wine, as if he had left all his troubles behind.

Li Yang nodded.

Looking at the Mountain Guest, he secretly pondered his future plans and strategies. "Mountain Guest, rest assured, I will handle the affairs of the Mountain and Sea Realm properly, and I will also do my best to improve my own strength to help you with your revenge."

"Yes, I am relieved to hear that. But the path of cultivation is long and arduous. I wonder how many years and opportunities I will need to reach a level where I can contend with that enemy." The mountain dweller's gaze was somewhat distant, as if he were looking towards a distant and unknown future.

"It's alright. Now that we've formed an alliance, we have more power and possibilities. My star universe also has many rare resources and unique cultivation methods that may be of assistance to us," Li Yang said confidently.

"Oh? As expected of the Celestial Eclipse Ancestor who received the inheritance of a great being, he actually has such a foundation? I underestimated him." A hint of surprise and curiosity flashed in the eyes of the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

"Haha, my universe is full of mysteries and treasures, which I will share with you slowly in the future," Li Yang said with a smile, his smile full of anticipation for future cooperation.

The two fell silent again, but this silence was no longer filled with suspicion and solemnity; instead, it was filled with contemplation and anticipation for the future.

……

Next, the two discussed how to properly arrange the identities of the mountain dwellers.

The latest novel is first published here!

"Mountain Dweller, do you wish to join the human race directly as you are now, or do you wish to join my human race as a human?" Li Yang asked, breaking the silence with a deep gaze.

The Mountain-Sitting Guest slightly raised his head, his eyes resolute: "Since I have already agreed to join the human race and stand with them through thick and thin, then naturally I will join as a human. In this way, whether it's gaining recognition from others or reforming the training program for the strong, I can do a better job! After all, only by truly integrating can one unleash their greatest power."

Li Yang nodded slightly, seemingly lost in thought: "What you say is quite right."

"On the Origin Continent, everything exists as a divine kingdom, with the Chaos Realm being the regional governors. However, regardless of the circumstances, the God-King is the master of this kingdom. Our human race now reveres you, which is excellent. Only with one voice can we unite as one," commented the Mountain-Sitting Guest.

"In the Origin Continent, divine kingdoms generally possess various kinds of inheritances that can help their people cultivate. I have all the inheritances of my Jin Kingdom, including those at the God-King level."

At this point, the mountain dweller paused briefly and glanced at Li Yang.

"I will organize it later and place it in my exclusive dimension in your star universe. This legacy will surely cultivate more powerful individuals for the human race."

"That's excellent."

Li Yang's face lit up with joy. "If these traditions can be passed down among the human race, they will surely greatly increase the strength of our race."

The Mountain Guest narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "Once my identity is settled, I will join your Treasure Pavilion and tailor a training program for your experts."

A hint of surprise and delight flashed in Li Yang's eyes: "Oh? You actually have such an idea. If the Treasure Pavilion can get your help, it will surely be able to cultivate many top experts."

The Mountain Guest's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "Haha, I know that simply joining the human race is not enough. We also need to think what the Celestial Ancestor thinks and be anxious about what the Celestial Ancestor is anxious about! This is also for our common goal, so that the human race can stand firm in this chaotic universe and even dominate a region."

"Mountain Dweller, I, Tian Shi, will forever remember your dedication to the human race." Li Yang said solemnly, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect.

"No need to be so polite. We are now on the same path. We share the same fate, whether it be prosperity or ruin." The mountain dweller accepted the greeting with composure and returned a firm gaze.
