The Purgatory Calamity
Chapter 846 - 806 Fu Ya and Dao Yuan

Chapter 846: Chapter 806 Fu Ya and Dao Yuan

Fuya, was actually one of the Four Sovereigns, the Wisdom Goddess!

The world only knows that the Wisdom Goddess is the chieftain of the Spirit Race, ruling over the vast Spirit Clan Galaxy, with numerous strong High Gods, Middle-level Gods, and Low-rank Gods under her command.

But few know that her name before becoming a god, was Fuya.

Long Di, obviously had a past with Her and knew Her quite well.

"She, She..."

Bai Zi’s figure trembled slightly as she suddenly said in terror, "I have met the Divine Spirits of the Spirit Race, and every one of them showed extraordinary enthusiasm when they knew I was a Realm God from the Netherworld Prison."

Recalling the past improprieties, Bai Zi’s face turned pale with horror, "It seems that it was all because of the Wisdom Goddess!"

The Wisdom Goddess Fuya held very high prestige in the Outer Star River. She was known for her kindness and friendliness, often enlightening people’s wisdom, and was trusted by various clans.

Among the Four Sovereigns, Her reputation was the best.

The Spirit Race naturally treated Her as the supreme Divine Spirit.

Those Divine Spirits of the Spirit Race who encountered Bai Zi and showed excessive enthusiasm invited Her to visit the Spirit Clan Galaxy beyond, saying their Wisdom Goddess admired Her very much.

For this, Bai Zi even felt honored and surprised.

Now, after hearing what Long Di had to say, She suddenly realized and turned pale, asking, "Why Her?"

Pang Jian, wordlessly fixing his gaze on Long Di, felt tumultuous waves in his heart.

Fuya was the Sovereign behind Mou Qi!

Above the Misty Sea, following Mou Qi, the High God of the Spirit Race, it seemed that another powerful Divine Spirit of the Spirit Race had arrived.

The gathering of Spirit Race powerhouses was definitely not just for Mou Qi’s personal affair!

Bearing some dissatisfaction towards Mou Qi and the Spirit Race due to the issue with Han Yi, and now suddenly learning of his mother’s death being related to the Wisdom Goddess, he immediately treated the Spirit Race as a formidable enemy.

"The way of wisdom contemplated by Fuya could integrate all the true essence of souls from the Sea of Souls, and as your master was the predecessor Realm God, Her connection with the Sea of Souls was the closest,"

Long Di plainly explained the underlying interests.

"Fuya can never step into Netherworld Prison, so if She harbors designs on the Mystery of the Soul within the Sea of Souls, She can only do so through your master."

"Before She exposed her intentions, She had won your master’s trust, and they often made contact to discuss wisdom and the mysteries of the Soul, originally still good friends."

"However..."

Long Di’s gaze shifted from Bai Zi to Pang Jian’s face, saying, "It was your father, who later suddenly saw through Fuya’s thoughts, reminding Lingjia to be careful while trying to find evidence."

"Because Lingjia did not believe it! He treated Fuya as a friend, refusing to believe that She harbored intentions of harming him."

Suddenly, Long Di looked up at the resplendent starry sky.

His face did not hide the pain as he said, "I don’t know what Pang Qi found outside in the end, but he ultimately attracted Fuya’s attention and was personally pursued by Her."

"Lingjia, in an attempt to save Pang Qi, communicated forcefully with Fuya in the Netherworld Prison, and when it was futile, He opened a Soul Battle across realms."

"With the help of the Sea of Souls, He still lost in the Soul Battle, and ultimately His soul perished here."

"Because His Soul Battle with Fuya was unknown to others, and because He died in the Netherworld Prison, everyone thought it was me who killed Him, believing it was out of jealousy."

"Ha!"

Long Di’s eyes reddened, and he forced a bitter smile, "In Netherworld Prison, I, the leader of the Nether Gods, was never his match. What could I possibly use to kill him there?"

"Heaven Forbidden, Sea of Souls, how would they allow me to kill him?!"

"All along, He was the one in the Netherworld Prison most qualified and powerful enough to become a Sovereign!"

"Without Pang Qi’s delay, without Pang Qi’s self-righteous exposure of the Wisdom Goddess’s scheming, he would have continued his sincere cultivation in the Netherworld Prison and would have ascended to Sovereignty one day!"

"Also! For a being like Him, to have offspring is a grave injury!"

"Having a child would divide His Divine Power, would take away a part of His Undying Soul Fire! Without Pang Qi emerging from Purgatory and encountering Him at the conference of Realm Gods, how could He have ended up with such a fate?"

"I had intended to guard Him silently behind the scenes, to watch Him become a Sovereign, to lead the Nether Tribe out of the Misty Sea, and spread our branches in the Outer Star River."

"Pang Qi’s emergence, He betrayed not only Himself but also the Netherworld Prison!"

"Why do you think I wanted to see you? I wanted to see what kind of person the child He risked so much to bring into the world, by relinquishing his position as Sovereign, turned out to be!"

Long Di’s expression seemed like he wanted to devour someone.

Having said this, Bai Zi suddenly fell silent.

Pang Jian’s head buzzed as he felt his age and the events that had transpired seemed mismatched, so he bellowed, "When did all this happen?"

"About five thousand years ago," Long Di replied.

Pang Jian turned his head to look at Bai Zi.

Bai Zi understood his implication and hurriedly said, "It happened almost five thousand years ago, to be precise, it was slightly more than four thousand nine hundred years ago. I was young then, not yet Divinely Enthroned in the Netherworld Prison, but placed by my master in the holy land of the Netherworld Prison where Purgatory World Gods are forged, and taught by Him how to become a Realm God."

"I knew He had perished in the Netherworld Prison, and I used to think it was an accident during His cultivation, only to later hear from others that it was Lord Long Di who had acted."

"As far as time goes, there can’t be too great a mistake," Bai Zi explained.

Suppressing the tremendous shock in his heart, Pang Jian said, "I, even if you count everything, am not yet a hundred years old! I have a younger sister who is even younger than me! Ever since we’ve had memories, we’ve been in the Solitude Mountain Range of Purgatory! My father taught me hunting when I was a child, one day he delved deep into the Misty Sea and since then vanished without a trace."

"Lingjia is dead, yet Pang Qi survived!" Long Di sneered, "Seems like he’s been a coward for a full five thousand years!"

"I told you! I’m not even a hundred years old!" Pang Jian yelled.

In his loss of control, neither Long Di nor Bai Zi looked perturbed.

"Pang Jian, in this world, there are many ways to temporarily freeze time," Bai Zi said, trying to clarify for him, fearing that he would go mad. "Perhaps when you were even younger, your father used some artifact to protect you both and locked away the passage of time for you."

"Not to mention a mere five thousand years; even tens of thousands of years can be locked by such artifacts – it’s not surprising at all."

The meaning in His words was that before Pang Qi decided to expose the hypocritical face of the Wisdom Goddess outside of Purgatory, he locked Pang Jian and his sister in an artifact that could halt time.

After five thousand years, Pang Qi returned to Purgatory to free the siblings.

This resulted in the siblings’ memories being only of their time in the Solitude Mountain Range, believing themselves to be merely in their forties or fifties.

"Is that really true?" Pang Jian asked, lost.

Long Di snorted coldly and said, "One of the four Sovereigns, the God of the Void, can easily imprison a Divine Spirit for tens of thousands of years, making it believe that time has stopped."

"As a Purgatory World God, if Pang Qi dares to seek trouble with the Wisdom Goddess, naturally he would have such an artifact at hand."

"Only five thousand years – in my memory, there are many artifacts capable of achieving it."

Long Di was utterly certain, confident that this was the truth.

Bai Zi also said, "That must be it."

Pang Jian, with his head reeling, couldn’t snap back to reality for a long time, unable to confirm whether what They had said was actually true.

"My lord, when Fuya approached me with an olive branch, was it also for the Sea of Souls?" Bai Zi asked Long Di, now respecting him anew, earnestly seeking guidance. "Can the way of wisdom She has comprehended be sublimated through our Sea of Souls?"

"Let’s put it this way if Fuya could enter the Sea of Souls and cleanse her God Status there, She would qualify for an assault on the Realm of Divine King!" Long Di glared at Bai Zi and added, "You have no idea what the Sea of Souls means!"

"So what exactly is the Sea of Souls?" Bai Zi asked further.

"It is the source of all Great Tao! It is a wonder naturally born of the heavens that encompasses the very essence of the Heavenly Dao," Long Di took a deep breath and continued, "The Sea of Souls is the source of the soul’s deepest mysteries! Even if Fuya cannot enter the Netherworld Prison, just by discerning a portion of the Sea of Souls’ truth through Lingjia and you, She could benefit immensely!"

"For a Sovereign, being able to find a source of the Great Tao that aligns with your own path, do you know how fortunate that is?"

"The source of the Great Tao is unique; the Sea of Souls in our Netherworld Prison is the one and only source for the soul aspect."

"All who study the Secret Skill of the Spiritual Soul, all Divine Spirits who enhance their power through wisdom, consider the Sea of Souls in the Netherworld Prison as the ultimate goal of their life’s pursuit."

"As a Sovereign, Fuya certainly is no exception!"

Long Di disclosed the truth of this world.
