Chapter 838: Chapter 461: Splendor Before the Disaster (5K)

The representative of the Blazefire Commerce Guild was Qianqiu, while the representative of the Flamefire Academy was Liu Feng.

Instructor Fang You hadn’t arrived, however, he was constantly paying attention to the situation in the meeting, occasionally switching his view to the First Tower Master, Dean Rose, or Princess Yun Ji.

Sage Cang Tu, the most mysterious of the Ten Sages.

His mystery lay in the fact that he had no fixed abode and was not revered by any dominant powers.

His life’s story was nothing short of legendary.

Born in a certain super Oasis, Sage Cang Tu cultivated smoothly to the Mythic Realm. However, disaster struck at that point, and the super Oasis fell overnight; the then Cang Tu of the Mythic Realm plummeted from the dignified position of a great nation’s helmsman to a drifting myth.

Being a myth, after all, building another significant force would have been as easy as turning his hand over, had he so wished.

But Sage Cang Tu, heart grown cold and also due to the annihilation of his kin, had no plans to manage such power again. Instead, he frequently ventured deep into all types of perilous and deadly places, soon vanishing from sight.

Decades, hundreds of years passed without news of Sage Cang Tu.

Just when people thought the Sage had perished, Cang Tu returned to human society, already elevated to the noble status of a demigod.

After further centuries, Sage Cang Tu, with an appearance that amazed the world, carved a path suitable for himself amidst the pervasive thorns and advanced to the high position of the ninth realm.

It was said that the path taken by Sage Cang Tu was one of "divine mission".

He was also the best among the Ten Sages at prophecy and divination.

Nobody dared to ignore a prophecy coming from Sage Cang Tu.

Lord Coldland was just a messenger. He slowly unfurled a scroll exuding divine light, turning to the various representatives and said solemnly,

"Sage Cang Tu says,"

"The crisis of the Evil God is upon us, and it is not just the greatest crisis humanity will face in its history, but also the greatest crisis for the entire Ghastly Realm.

"I have seen boundless darkness where within, the world collapses, deities perish, and mankind ceases to exist. Yet, at the very end of the darkness, there is a trace of dawn. By pursuing the trail of the morning light, there is hope for the continuation of humanity.

"Before the true darkness descends, there will be three catastrophic tides, signs of the indescribable awakening of the Evil God. The first sign of awakening has already passed, but the signs that follow will be increasingly ferocious, until the Evil God’s tendrils spread across the Ghastly Realm, at which point, the Oasis will wither, the world will fall apart, and the universe will sink into defilement, plunging into the abyss."

Most of the super Oasis had already experienced the disaster brought by the first sign of the Evil God’s awakening.

The more informed among the myths knew that under the recent tide of catastrophe, many myths and demigods had fallen, and countless Great Oasis and super Oasis had been destroyed.

Moreover, these desolated Oasis were now eroded by a dense corruption, with vegetation wilting, plant life degenerating, the earth drying up, resources depleted; the territory of the Oasis shrinking... Even if in the future, human forces managed to reclaim these lands from the Mysterious Evil, they’d come back to nearly defunct Oasis.

Under the tide of disaster, the land of Oasis vital for survival was being relentlessly stripped away.

Many representatives from the alliance countries looked desolate.

They were survivors of the catastrophe, but they hadn’t expected that what they had suffered was merely the beginning.

They hadn’t been drastically affected by the disaster at the time, enduring the sacrifice of some civilians and then moving on. But what if they were to face an absolute catastrophe like the Great Domain of Yunhui? Who would save them then?

Ancient Gods? Even the Ancient Gods were unreliable.

At this moment, Sage Cang Tu continued,

"I have said before, at the end of the darkness there are traces of dawn. When disaster falls, it is often accompanied by the birth of divine missions.

"Children of destiny continuously emerge, fallen Ancient Gods return one after another, and rare relics are unearthed... This is what we call divine mission, the self-salvation of the Ghastly Realm."

In fact, the Ghastly Realm and the Evil God were not on the same side!

The world wasn’t named the Ghastly Realm at the beginning, but it was changed drastically when the alien Evil God invaded, obliterating the world’s original name.

The people of today could only remember and refer to it as the Ghastly Realm.

Such secrets were learned by Fang You from the Candela Empire. At that time, the environment of the Ghastly Realm was not as harsh, but it was already the Ghastly Realm.

Many of the alliance country representatives may not understand this, but they know that, in times of dire crisis, the world often bestows divine missions upon a select few heroes.

There are many examples to prove this.

When foreign worlds were devoured by the Ghastly Realm, many heroic figures emerged, breaking through the perilous barriers of awakening despite their mysterious systems being a blank slate at the time.

This is divine mission, the world’s favor!

"Now, the divine mission has arrived. Perhaps some have vaguely discovered that breaking through the barriers of myth and demigod has become easier than before. This is our chance for humanity to save itself, and we must seize it firmly.

"Moreover, I have discovered that the path from the eighth-level Oasis to the ninth-level Oasis has also been illuminated by the light of dawn.

"Under the calamity of the Evil God, the fate of mankind is like a candle in the wind. Remember, remember, to seize the opportunity given by the divine mission and shatter the darkness!"

Sage Cang Tu’s warm voice gradually faded away.

Threads of light dimmed, and the expressions of the representatives in the meeting became uncertain and solemn.

Many reflected and found the changes in the world to be just as Sage Cang Tu described.

Demigod Xi Guang thought of Guyue, Seven Stars, Red Lotus, Grand Havoc City – heroes beyond compare emergent of this era; surely this was the favor of divine mission.

The Blazefire Commerce Guild and the mysterious forces surely felt the same.

The more outstanding the figures were, the more likely they were to receive the world’s favor.
