Why did you provoke her? Even Heaven itself is afraid of her.

"Oh no, we might have fallen into a trap."

Ling Yun said anxiously to Lord Taishan.

The Lord of Mount Tai was puzzled.

He retorted to Ling Yun, "What do you mean by that?"

Ling Yun explained, "Given the Creator's style of doing things, he must have some ulterior motive."

His sudden attack on us was likely a deliberate attempt to force us to come here.

Perhaps he has already found what he wanted before we have.

Otherwise, Heaven wouldn't have said that just now.

Lord Taishan nodded solemnly.

"Now that things have come to this, we have no way out. Ancestor Lingyun, whether we can break this deadlock depends on you."

Ling Yun took a deep breath, suppressing his anxiety, and re-examined the light screen in front of him.

She carefully observed the eerie black power wielded by the Creator in the scene, trying to find clues related to herself.

“Look, this black power seems to resonate with a certain frequency when it is devouring the ancient god’s power.”

Ling Yun pointed at the light screen, his eyes focused.

"I have a feeling that this might be related to the power within me, but I haven't been able to fully understand it yet."

Lord Taishan leaned closer to the light screen and examined it carefully.

"If that's the case, then this frequency might be the key to unlocking the mystery. But how can we use it?"

Just then, the walls around the passage began to tremble violently, and huge rocks fell from above.

Lingyun and the Lord of Mount Tai quickly used their divine powers to dodge the falling rocks while searching for a solution.

"Get out of this passage first, it's too dangerous here," Ling Yun shouted.

Seizing the opportunity, everyone rushed towards the exit of the passage.

But when they arrived at the entrance to the passage, they found that the exit had been blocked by a huge stone door.

Lingyun tried various methods to open the stone door, but the stone door did not respond at all.

Suddenly, a huge crack appeared in the ground.

A powerful suction force emanated from it, attempting to pull them all in.

"hold onto!"

Ling Yun gripped the edge of the stone door tightly, while the Lord of Mount Tai resisted the suction with all his might.

In the stalemate with the suction force, Ling Yun suddenly discovered that the rhythm of the flashing chaotic divine runes on the stone door seemed to have a subtle connection with the resonant frequency of the black power in the light screen.

On a sudden inspiration, she channeled her divine power, injecting it into the chaotic divine runes engraved on the stone gate in accordance with the rhythm of that frequency.

In an instant, the Chaos Divine Script shone brightly.

The stone door slowly opened.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, everyone leaped out and escaped the threat of the suction force.

"It seems we're on the right track."

Ling Yun said, panting heavily.

They continued deeper into the ruins and came to a huge circular hall.

A crystal ball emitting a faint glow floats in the center of the hall, surrounded by a ring of ancient stone pillars, which are engraved with ancient god patterns.

As Ling Yun approached the crystal ball, it suddenly emitted a bright light, and an ancient figure emerged from within the light.

The figure's face was blurry, but its aura felt incredibly familiar.

"Lingyun, the Ancestor of Humanity, you have finally arrived."

The ancient figure spoke slowly, his voice seemingly traversing endless ages.

"And you are?" Ling Yun asked respectfully.

"I am a remnant of consciousness left over from ancient times, waiting for my destined one. Now it seems that it is you."

The ancient figure said, "The Creator's ambition has a long history. He attempts to control the entire universe, and you ancient gods are his greatest obstacle."

What he wants to obtain from you is the most primordial power of the ancient gods, known as the Seed of Creation.

It is also the primordial power of the Creator and all of you ancient gods.

"The Seed of Creation?"

Both Ling Yun and Lord Taishan were taken aback.

The ancient figure explained, "That's right. The Seed of Creation contains the power of the ancient gods to create the world. Once the Creator obtains it, he will be able to completely control the birth and death of the universe and manipulate everything at will."

"So how do we stop him?"

Ling Yun asked anxiously.

The ancient figure reminded her, "The Seed of Creation is within you, but it is dormant and can only be awakened through a specific ritual."

This ritual requires finding three ancient artifacts: the Star Sword, the Chaos Shield, and the Key of Time.

These three divine artifacts are hidden in different corners of the divine realm, protected by powerful guardian forces.

Only by gathering them can the Seed of Creation be awakened to fight against the Creator.

Ling Yun said helplessly, "The God Realm is now completely controlled by the Heavenly Dao and the Creator. We can't get in at all."

The ancient figure reminded him: "The Creator and the ancient gods of the primordial era were actually born together."

However, he stole the world order that should have belonged to you from the very beginning.

After he has fully grasped the concepts, he will teach them to you individually.

After the great battle between you ancient gods and the Creator, nearly 90% of the ancient gods perished, but the Creator was also severely injured.

It has not been cured to this day.

Therefore, the Creator is currently preoccupied with his own problems and has no spare capacity to manage the divine realm until he recovers from his injuries.

All you need to deal with right now is the will of Heaven.

He couldn't stop you from entering the Heavenly Realm, so he deliberately invoked the Creator to threaten you.

Ling Yun nodded slightly.

"In that case, let's ascend to the realm of gods."

The Lord of Mount Tai stopped her.

"Ancestor Lingyun, for safety's sake, we cannot ascend directly to the Heavenly Realm like this. Otherwise, that old thing called the Heavenly Dao will definitely make trouble for us."

He has the support of the Great Dao; if you and I join forces, we'll likely be at a disadvantage.

Ling Yun looked at Lord Taishan and asked, "Then tell me, what should we do?"

Lord Taishan replied, "It's simple. Just change your realm, pretend to be a cultivator, and ascend to the Heavenly Realm. That way, you can temporarily evade the Heavenly Dao's pursuit."

Lingyun reminded him, "Lord of Mount Tai, you seem to have forgotten something very important. All cultivators must undergo the trials of the Heavenly Dao before ascending to the Heavenly Realm."

It's less of a test and more of a selection process.

If Heaven wants someone to ascend, they can ascend directly; if Heaven doesn't want someone to ascend, it can manipulate the Heavenly Tribulation slightly, causing that person to die and their Dao to dissipate.

Based on how well he knows the two of us, do you think we could really keep it from him by simply changing our identities?

The Lord of Mount Tai smiled slightly.

He replied, "Ancestor Lingyun, it seems you've forgotten something very important!"

Ling Yun looked completely bewildered.

"What is it? Stop keeping me in suspense!"

Lord Taishan said, "Other ancient gods may not be able to do this, but I, Lord Taishan, am the great god of reincarnation who controls the life and death of ancient gods. As long as I want, I can freely write the fate of the souls of ancient gods and then make them reborn."

The Creator feared this very quality in me, which is why He wanted to kill me and Houtu.

Ling Yun pressed him further, saying, "Then what do you mean? You're not going to let me die again just to ensure my safe ascension to the Heavenly Realm, are you?"

I'm warning you, I don't agree!

"Don't even think about trying anything funny with me. Even I, your ancestor, would never entrust my life to someone else!"
