Ch-67: Ai Heng and Heavenly Sword Sect of the Outer Universe
While Wang Ming was traveling to the nearest city to attempt the Alchemy test, all the top forces of the Outer Universe were in a state of major turmoil
The reason was the Eye of Chaos opened and as a result, the entire Outer Universe shook due to the opening of the eye which was closed for millions of years, every time the 'Eye of Chaos' opens the whole power structure of the Outer Universe goes through a major reshuffle
The last time the 'Eye of Chaos' opened was around 985 million years ago when the first Heavenly Emperor was born who united the entire Outer Universe under a single rule but after his mysterious disappearance all the forces under his rule split apart forming various families and sects who are the current Overlords of the Outer Universe
Heavenly Sword Sect
This was one of the top sects of the Outer Universe that are specialized and famous for their sword techniques and is not only considered one the most powerful sword sects but also considered to be one of the most powerful sects of the Outer Universe
The Heavenly Sword Sect was located in a separate world which they control like all the other top sects and is the home of thousands of Disciples who possess the extreme aptitude for practicing sword techniques
Inside, a palace which is made out of pure gold and carved into the shape of a sword was floating in an empty void, and inside one of the rooms of the palace were a few people who had curious expressions on their faces, currently, there were a few people who were sitting around the round table and staring at the middle-aged person who had a serious expression on his face with curiosity
" Sect leader, why have you summoned us all of a sudden, is it related to the mysterious force which shook the entire outer Universe" asked a handsome man
" Hao Qian, it is indeed related to the tremor that shook the world but do you know the reason behind it?" asked the sect Leader Chang Huang to which Hao Qian shook his head in denial
" What about you, Ai Heng, you are the most powerful and knowledgeable in the entire sect, you should know right?" Chang Huang asked a beautiful woman who had a cold look on her face which enhanced her otherworldly beauty
" Y-y-you don't mean!!??" the expressionless woman immediately stood up from her seat and finally showed joy for the first time in her life
" Indeed, the 'Eye of Chaos' finally opened" Chang Huang said with a serious expression that confused all the newly promoted sect elders
" Sect leader, what is the 'Eye of Chaos' and why is Sect Elder Ai acting like this ?" asked the sect elders in confusion
" I think it is not wise for me to tell you about Ai Heng's reaction but it is normal you guys don't know about the ' Eye of Chaos' because the last time the ' Eye of Chaos' opened was when the Heavenly Emperor was born" replied the sect leader which shook all the elders
" T-t-that Heavenly Emperor who was said to have united the entire Outer Universe?" asked Hao Qian in a trembling voice
" Indeed, it is said when the ' Eye of Chaos' opens and shows its presence in the outer Universe, and when the entire world shakes a new Cultivator with the same potential as the Heavenly Emperor and all those who had been born with the same potential before him will arise" Chang Guang said in a serious voice
" So sect leader, do you want us to find him before the others do?" asked one of the sect elders
" Even if we try it is impossible to find him among all the Cultivators, the person who is related to the ' Eye of Chaos', is always born in the lower realms and climbs their way to the Outer Universe, it was the same for all the Cultivators who were connected to the ' Eye of Chaos' like the Heavenly Emperor, and those monsters who came before and after him" replied the sect leader
" Elder, what actually is the ' Eye of Chaos'?" asked one of the elders
" Unfortunately, no one knows but the only thing we know is that it was formed when the creation of all things began billions of years ago" replied the Chang Huang
" Alright, all of you leave and keep a close eye on any potential Cultivators who ascend from the lower realms" ordered the sect leader as they gradually dispersed
" Huff" Chang Huang released a long breath as he looked at the dazed Ai Heng
" Daughter, do you really think he returned?" asked Chang Huang
" I am certain father, he promised me that he will return when the 'Eye of Chaos' makes its appearance again" Ai Heng replied
" I hope that the man you loved in your past life returns, but what if he already has women beside him if he truly has returned?" Chang Huang asked
" Hmph, I know for sure that he has returned and already has many women by his side already, previously he dedicated all his time to improving his sword skills but the lust and love that he had in his eyes for all the women and me, could not be hidden from me, he just suppressed his desires so that he does not get distracted from his training, even if he has many women I will make sure that he cannot escape from me this time, sniff...sniff" Ai Heng replied with absolute confidence but in the end tears fell from her eyes
" Hehe, if someone saw the ice-cold Goddesses shed tears, they would start doubting their lives" Chang Huang grinned to ease up the mood
" Shut up" Ai Heng replied angrily
" I hope the words you said are true and he returns, if he does all the sect elders who are trying to claim the sect for themselves will have to abandon their nefarious thoughts" Chang Huang said
" Indeed father, darling was the same as the Heavenly Emperor, the founder and first sect leader and creator of the Heavenly Sword Arts which he used to dominate all the other sects during his time and possessor of the Heavenly Sword Body " Ai Heng said silently
