“Become the new Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven.”
Patriarch Cang Xuan’s words evidently had a huge impact on everyone present. Even sect master Qing Yang couldn’t help gulping.
Fiery looks even came to the eyes of the other Cangxuan Heaven Law Domain experts.
After all, they understood what that seal represented. It represented the highest authority of Cangxuan Heaven and the one who held it would rise to become one of the top existences in all-heavens.
Even ordinary Saints would be respectful to him.
No one present could maintain calm in the face of the power that the authority represented. However, they knew they weren’t qualified to hold the seal and so didn’t lose their mind.
They could see patriarch Cang Xuan looking straight at Zhou Yuan as he said those words, indicating his proposal was directed at him.
But they didn’t feel bitter because of that because Zhou Yuan indeed was the most worthy of that position in Cangxuan Heaven in terms of strength and prestige.
Everyone cast envious gazes towards Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan was equally stunned by the proposal. He immediately said puzzledly, “The one who holds the Cangxuan Saint Stamp has to at the very least reach the Saint stage. I’m not qualified.”
Patriarch Cang Xuan nodded. “That’s the case in ordinary times, but your strength isn’t inferior to someone at the Semi-Saint stage. You are just qualified in a sense. Also, Cangxuan Heaven is now facing a catastrophe and countless beings have fallen into despair. As a result, the Cangxuan Saint Stamp can perceive their hopes and their prayers to live. At such a time, if someone could stop the sky from collapsing, the difficulty of inheriting the Cangxuan Saint Stamp would be reduced. It’s the same principle as when you used the prayers of Cangxuan Heaven citizens to speed up the process of the Cangxuan Saint Stamp’s integration and the Cangxuan Saint Stamp’s control was handed to you in the end.”
Understanding dawned on Zhou Yuan’s face.
“Zhou Yuan, you are remarkable. You are the most amazing person I have seen in years. Even I couldn’t predict your achievements in the future. This is why I am hesitant as to whether you should become the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven.” Patriarch Cang Xuan smiled bitterly. “You should have heard about the drawbacks of being the Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven, right?”
Zhou Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, “The Sacred Race has corrupted Cangxuan Heaven and caused defects in this heaven. As a result, the Heaven Master who holds Cangxuan Saint Stamp would find it extremely difficult to make progress on the Saint path, is that right?”
Patriarch Cang Xuan slowly nodded and said heavily, “Before I took control of the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, there were also other Saints in Cangxuan Heaven. However, they refused to hold the Saint Stamp and protect Cangxuan Heaven because that meant they would suffer difficulties in their cultivation path in the future. I don’t blame them for that. After all, no one wants to stop making progress after reaching the Saint stage. I also took a long time to make up my mind before I chose to inherit that position. Zhou Yuan, I didn't want you to inherit the position of Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven because I think it would hinder you, but—”
Patriarch Cang Xuan looked a little pained. He could hear the cries of despair from countless people in Cangxuan Heaven. He wanted someone to stand up and save this heaven.
Sect master Qing Yang and others also fell silent. They wouldn’t need to consider too much if they were to make that decision because their lifelong goal was to reach the Saint Stage, but Zhou Yuan’s achievements in the future would no doubt be much greater than theirs.
Could there really be nothing good in accepting the position of Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven, which has its drawbacks?
Zhou Yuan looked dazed for a moment because he had never thought about that question.
He raised his eyes and his gaze penetrated space to see the blood-red light beams spreading rapidly and people sobbing in despair.
“I was born in Cangxuan Heaven. It is also where the Great Zhou Empire is. Also there’s the Cangxuan Sect and other places I don’t want to give up. I also have friends who I would never abandon here. I won’t let anyone destroy this place. Otherwise, why did I come back?”
Zhou Yuan looked directly at patriarch Cang Xuan and said with a smile, “So, patriarch, if you need me to inherit the position of Heaven Master to save Cangxuan Heaven, I won’t refuse. Of course, I’m not sacrificing myself to achieve our goal. Instead, I have greater ambitions. I will find a way to overcome the drawbacks in Cangxuan Heaven and make the Saints of all-heavens envy me.”
Patriarch Cang Xuan seemed taken aback by his answer. It was only after a while that he said, “This isn’t easy. Even I did not succeed.”
Sect master Qing Yang and the others assumed a strange expression and even wanted to yell out loud, “Kid, you’re too arrogant. How could you talk to an elder like that?”
Is he implying that the patriarch isn’t strong enough and he could do what he couldn't?”
However, patriarch Cang Xuan didn’t feel offended. Instead, a pleased smile came to his face. “If you indeed have such an ambition, I really can’t ask for anything more. It has always been my greatest wish to remedy Cangxuan Heaven’s defect, but my ability is lacking and I wasn't able to do so. But it might not be impossible for you.” Patriarch Cang Xuan gazed softly at Zhou Yuan. “Then, have you really decided to inherit the position of Heaven Master of Cangxuan Heaven?"
Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and nodded firmly.
Sect master Qing Yang, Heaven Sword Sovereign and many other top Cangxuan Heaven experts assumed a serious expression and bowed deeply in Zhou Yuan’s direction.
That bow was to thank him for willing to stand up for Cangxuan Heaven at the most critical time.
Patriarch Cang Xuan stretched out his illusory hand, on which the ancient stone seal was suspended above. Countless mountains and rivers were reflected on the glowing surface of the stone seal.
“Put your hand on it.”
With a solemn expression, Zhou Yuan stretched out his hand and covered the Cangxuan Saint Stamp.
Rumble!
Wind suddenly raged, clouds scudded across the sky, and even the universe Genesis Qi became abnormally active.
Sect master Qing Yang and the others all felt a strong resisting force erupting from the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, pushing them all away.
Only patriarch Cang Xuan and Zhou Yuan remained standing in the same place.
However, Zhou Yuan didn’t feel particularly comfortable because as universe Genesis Qi became increasingly active, an indescribably terrifying oppressive force swept towards him.
The feeling was as though he was suppressed by the entire Cangxuan Heaven.
Mighty Genesis Qi rapidly gathered to form several tremendous mirrors, in which the mountains, rivers and streams as well as all people were reflected.
A terrifying power within the mirrors made many people shudder with fear.
That power locked on Zhou Yuan.
His hair stood on end.
“Zhou Yuan, this is a test to see whether you are qualified to control the Cangxuan Saint Stamp, and this test, I call it the Mirror of Heaven Will! You have to be able to withstand its power. It is used to test the Saint stage!”
Before Zhou Yuan could respond, light beams struck down from the huge mirrors above like lightning.
