âPlease, Kunwu Supreme, tell me!â Ye Tian pleaded.
Kunwu Supreme responded, âIn truth, any Supreme has the ability to resurrect a Great God. Even a Supreme who isnât proficient in time and space can forcibly use their own power to reverse time and resurrect a Great God. However, doing so would incur backlash from the Universeâs Origin. If one relies solely on their own strength, the cost is substantial. For a Supreme adept in time and space, the cost is much smaller.
Zhou Tian was an Eternal-level prince, infinitely close to an Invincible Eternal-level prince. His talent was indeed impressive.
But such a prince is not great for the Human Race. Only a Supreme-level prince would prompt the Human Race to immediately revive him as an exception.
I canât persuade other Supremes to revive Zhou Tian, nor can I act myself. I have many pressing matters, and reviving Zhou Tian would weaken my state, so I cannot intervene.
However, I can enlist the help of another Supreme from a different race, one youâre familiar with!â
Ye Tian immediately guessed who Kunwu Supreme was referring to.
âKunwu Supreme, you mean the Innate Deity, Lord Cang Yu?â Ye Tian asked.
âCorrect!â Kunwu Supreme nodded. âIt is indeed Cang Yu. Cang Yu is proficient in the Great Dao of Time and has mastered the great divine ability of Reversing Time. If he revives Zhou Tian, the cost would be very small, far less than what we Supremes would bear, and he would recover quickly.â
âKunwu Supreme, getting Cang Yu to act might not be so easy,â Ye Tian frowned.
âIndeed!â Kunwu Supreme nodded again. âEven with a small cost, Cang Yu wouldnât resurrect a Great God lightly. Reviving a being defies the laws of the Universe, and if done too frequently, it would attract resistance from the Universeâs Origin. Therefore, Supremes avoid reviving beings whenever possible.
To persuade Cang Yu to act wonât be easy. Even if I mediate, it would only serve to introduce you to him. Whether he ultimately helps is uncertain.â
âThank you, Kunwu Supreme!â Ye Tian expressed his gratitude.
Soon after, Kunwu Supreme contacted Cang Yu, explaining the situation to him.
Ye Tian didnât know what was discussed between Kunwu Supreme and Cang Yu. He waited for three days before receiving a response from Kunwu Supreme.
In the Kunwu Pavilion, Ye Tian met Kunwu Supreme again.
âYe Tian, Cang Yu is willing to resurrect Zhou Tian, but you must agree to one condition,â Kunwu Supreme stated.
âWhat condition?â Ye Tianâs heart sank as he asked. He suspected this condition wouldnât be simple; otherwise, Cang Yu wouldnât agree to revive Zhou Tian.
Kunwu Supreme explained, âCang Yu, as a Supreme proficient in the Great Dao of Time, cares little for most things. However, there is one thing he greatly desires but has yet to obtain.
If you can find this item, he will resurrect Zhou Tian for free.â
âWhat is this item that even he cannot obtain? Can I really get it?â Ye Tian frowned.
âThat item is called the Blood of an Ancestral God!â Kunwu Supreme revealed.
âThe Blood of an Ancestral God?â Ye Tian was puzzled. âWhat is that?â
Kunwu Supreme explained, âIn fact, when the Universe was first born, before the existence of the Immortal Race and Demon Race, the first beings to emerge were the Innate Deities. At that time, the Universe was controlled by these Innate Deities in their divine kingdoms.
Later, the Immortal Race and Demon Race emerged, wiping out most of the Innate Deities and taking control of the universe.
Afterwards, various powerful races appeared, leading to the current era where a myriad of races thrive.
The first batch of Innate Deities born at the beginning were called Ancestral Gods. These Ancestral Gods were incredibly powerful, each one at the Supreme level. However, most of the Ancestral Gods perished in internal conflicts early on; otherwise, the rise of the Immortal Race and Demon Race would not have happened.
The difference between ordinary Innate Deities and Ancestral Gods lay in their bloodline. The Blood of an Ancestral Gods was their most essential blood, containing unimaginable energy.
However, the Ancestral Gods existed in ancient times, and their blood had nearly been exhausted.
Although Cang Yu is a Supreme, he is merely an ordinary Supreme. However, with his mastery of the Great Dao of Time, other Supremes dared not provoke him.
Due to his bloodline, Cang Yu found it difficult to progress further, so he needed the Blood of an Ancestral God!â
âSo thatâs how it is!â Ye Tian began to understand.
Innate Deities followed the path of bloodlines, similar to the Fierce Beast Clan. However, the bloodline of Innate Deities was innate, determined from the moment they were born, unlike the Fierce Beasts who could enhance their bloodlines.
Therefore, Cang Yu could only rely on the Blood of an Ancestral God to advance.
âWhere can I find the Blood of an Ancestral God? Without any clues, I canât obtain it!â Ye Tian asked.
âIn the universe, there is a Tomb of the Ancestral Gods. Due to special rules, strong beings dare not enter it. First, it is dangerous. Second, the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods doesnât allow beings above the Universal God level to enter, particularly not Innate Deities.
Thus, Innate Deities have never entered that tomb. It is rumored that some Blood of an Ancestral God is still preserved there.
Unfortunately, almost everyone who entered the tomb perished, and those who survived didnât obtain the Blood of an Ancestral God.
Cang Yu deeply desires the Blood of an Ancestral God from that tomb, but he cannot enter.
He once sent some peak-level Galaxy warriors into the tomb, but none acquired the Blood of an Ancestral God.
Now, Cang Yu hopes you can enter the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods and retrieve the Blood of an Ancestral God for him! Additionally, if you succeed, he is willing to grant you a great opportunity related to the Dao of Time!â Kunwu Supreme explained.
âIâll think about it!â Ye Tian pondered for a whileâ¦
Ultimately, he decided, âAlright, I agree to Cang Yuâs request!â
âGood, I will arrange for you to meet Cang Yu. The rest you can discuss with him directly!â Kunwu Supreme said.
âAlright!â Ye Tian nodded.
Soon after, Ye Tian was escorted by Kunwu Supreme to Cang Yuâs domain, where he met Cang Yu.
âGreetings, Lord Cang Yu!â Ye Tian respectfully said upon seeing Cang Yu.
Cang Yu smiled upon seeing Ye Tian, âYe Tian, itâs been a while!â
Kunwu Supreme said, âCang Yu, I leave Ye Tian in your hands. The Human Race has other matters to attend to, so I must take my leave.â
âKunwu Supreme, rest assured. I canât guarantee Ye Tianâs safety in the Tomb of the Ancestral Gods, but outside of it, unless the Divine Lords of the Immortal Race or the Demon Lords of the Demon Race attack, I can ensure his safety against any ordinary Supreme!â
âThen I am reassured!â Kunwu Supreme left with confidence.
