Chapter 99 Am I strong or weak?
99 Am I strong or weak?
"First of Willow, what are you?"
Saying this Ye Tian looked deeply at the Willow with emotion in his eyes
Yes unlike what one would think, instead of asking about the dungeon or Suzaku and the other prisoners current situation
Ye Tian decided to get to the bottom of the willows identity
Not for anything but for the fact that he was curious as to what kind of Willow was cable of manipulating luck which few people in the universe could do
And the Willow, hearing this question sighed in exasperation and he seemed to have finally given the fact that he lost
"Sigh…, I guess I have no choice but to answer your questions, however since this is the first everyone I've lost i'll give you an additional present"
Said the Willow as it suddenly whole violently causing the whole surrounding to tremble heavily
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
*Boom!*
Followed by what seemed to be explosions, the surroundings began to tremble until the whole space collapsed plunging Ye Tian into endless darkness
"Damn it! What is going on?"
"Could it be that the Willow suddenly decided to go back on his words since he couldn't bear the thoughts of losing to a mortal human?"
Feeling his surroundings, Ye Tian couldn't help but speak out loud as all kinds of senarios had begun to take place in his head
However, before he could think too much about it an angry vice suddenly sounded in his ears leaving him speachless
"What are you talking about! Don't just make up things on your own"
"Although I may not look like it but I'm a willow of integrity, I don't need the likes of you or that cry baby Apollo ruining my reputaion"
Listening to this, Ye Tian knew that the Willow had obviously heard his words just now
But then again, so what? As someone who was known to have the thickest skin in his past life Ye Tian just pretended not to hear it and began asking about the current situation
"Hey Willow, what is going on? Is this the so called extra benefit you wanted to give me? Floating in the void?" asked Ye Tian who was still floating in endless darkness with a smile on his face
Seeing this, the Willow didn't even bother answering him and suddenly snapped his branch just like a human finger
*snap!*
And with that snap, the the surrounding scenery began to change
Infront of Ye Tian, an expanded view of the universe began to for me with three zones highlighted indifferent colours
"Now human, although you might not know it but although they are a lot of different forces on the universe but those forces can generally be classified into three groups"
"Red a camp full demons, devils, evil gods, fallen angels, and all kinds of other beings known as the evil faction who aims to bring the universe to ruin"
"The yellow camp or the God faction, a group of gods. Angel and divne beings, born from the origin of the universe or their various home planets which aims to maintain peace and balance in the universe"
"The grey or mortal faction, a group of beings although posses no divinity and are neither God nor devil have the power to rival them with the body of mortala
These guys unlike the others only aim to protects mortals like them or their home planets from the attacks of other gods or devils for things like souls or faith"
"Oh and although you don't need to know this but they are two other forces outside these called the outer gods and the transcendents"
Talking about those last two, for some reason Ye Tian could feel he heard a bit of fear in the willows tone
Not only that, but the word "Transcendent" something he had heard so many times lately a group of people or a level of power to reach
Maybe both? Although he wasn't sure exactly what it was but he knew that researching transcending might be the key to success in this new life
And as for the other gods, as someone who had fought Azathoth maytimes in his past life, Ye Tian only had one word to describe them
Strong
So strong that he doubted he confidently defeat any them in a one on one even at the peak of his past life
Not only that, but each possessed all kinds of strange characteristics and abilities making them a hassle to deal with
Because of that on many occasions when he had the chance in his past life, he would choose to avoid them when he could instead of wasting time entangled with them
However, after thinking about it for a bit Ye Tian suddenly realised his main question hadn't been answered,
What was the Willow, and why could he control luck?
Fortunately, just before he could asked the Willow what he meant by this, the surrounding space suddenly changes showing a throne so large that it seemed to trample various galaxies by its sheer size a llme
On it, a figure so large and overwhelming that even though it was just a projection and was actually there for the first time in a long time Ye Tian suddenly felt fear
The figure was completely wrapped in a shadow making it impossible to see what he looked like much the less tell gender
However, it's bright lavender pupils seemed to directly penetrate through Ye Tian making him feel like all his secrets had been seen tbrough
"Human look closely, beside because this is the closest you'll get to your answer"
"In fact, even I don't know who I am, other than I was originally a branch of that potted plant beside the figure on the throne which got some how separated"
"Later ignored the red camp and became a demon general under his Majesty Satan thanks to my amazing skill"
"But even with that, we lost we war and a few other generals like I git locked up and put in this prison"
Speaking of this, there seemed to be no emotions in the willows voice as if he said something trivial
However, Ye Tian who was still locked by the gaze of that might on the figure couldn't help but shout internally in disbelief
"I-i-impossible! How can something so strong exist!"
As a former super power who stood at the universe peak of course he knew that the figure there wasnt
Real rather just a protection from the memory of the willow
However, Ye Tian knew something else which made him as shocked as he was
Once a person or God becomes powerful to a point, they get something called identity sublimation
Which is why they say things like don't call gods name in vane
Their names have been sublimated to the point where just mentioning their name could lead to unwanted cause and effects which is death in most cases for mortals or divine punishment
But they are stages where even their images get sublimated since how they look is part of their identity
And once this is done, giving the characteristics of "thou shall not look directly at the face of god"
Any image or sculpture of such God carries a hint of its essence even though it may be less than 0.01% so now feeling this overwhelming pressure from an image that just had a hint of the deities essence
Ye Tian couldn't help but be lost in disbelief as he couldn't fathom just how strong the real body would be
Luckily, just as he was about to let his emotions get the best of him a cute voice suddenly sounded on his ear calming him down f𝐫e𝚎we𝚋n𝐨𝘃el.𝗰𝗼𝐦
[ Master! Master! Calm down! Although Ava doesn't know what happened but your emotions are destroying the inner world]
[relax master, Ava is here to help you! Although I might not be as strong as the master outside the world, but any problems the master has if the can be put here Ava is sure to sub them to the ground]
Shouting in Ye Tians mind, Avas voice full of worry and care could be heard trying desperately to calm him down
Fortunately, although he was deeply shocked but his thousands of years of experience quickly came into play along with Avas words bringing him back to his semses
Wearing and embarrassed smile and a palm at the back of his head. Ye Tian let out a light chuckle as he communicated with Ava in his mind
"Haha don't worry Ava I'm fine, I was just distracted for a bit"
However although he said that, if one looked at Ye Tians eyes deeply enough they would realise he was more serious that ever before as they were completely devoid of emotion
Obviously, these realisation was something he could just brush off
And all though he didnt want to admit it, but maybe the him of his previous life might not been a peak powerhouse like he thought so
Rather he might just have been a mouse in the playing ground of the truly strong
