"A thousand years ago, there was an old man named Shaoyang. I happened to be there and saved his life …"
These were the first few sentences that Ling Dong had erased from Celestial Lord Di Nading's jade talisman that Xiang Shuo had given to Star Lord Vermilion Bird and given to Di Nankun.
Perhaps Celestial Lord Di's jade talisman had been in too much of a hurry, or perhaps there had been too many dangerous factors. In short, the content inside was too chaotic. Apart from the first sentence, which was still somewhat organized, the rest was like a notebook, written down one sentence after another.
It was like a flood that came crashing down. No matter what, Di Nankun had to write it down first.
Ling Dong had obtained Celestial Lord Di's jade talisman for some time. After studying it for a while, Ling Dong filled in the gaps and roughly understood the general idea of Celestial Lord Di's jade talisman.
About a thousand years ago, Celestial Lord Di Nading had coincidentally saved an extremely injured old man. At that time, Celestial Lord Di had saved that person because of the old man's aura, or rather, the feeling he gave off, which was extremely special.
Just by looking at that old man, anyone could conclude that he was an extremely wise elder. That kind of wisdom was purely a kind of temperament.
It was a temperament that was engraved in his bones and seemed to have fused with all the worldly experiences in this world. Even though he was seriously injured and on the verge of death, Celestial Lord Di Nading had touched him.
This kind of temperament had moved Celestial Lord Di, who had been passing by. Coincidentally, Celestial Lord Di had been troubled at that time, so he had conveniently saved this unforgettable old man.
This old man was called Shao Yang.
However, although he had saved him, Celestial Lord Di did not know where to start. He could not treat this old man's injuries. Fortunately, Shao Yang was also an expert. He only asked Celestial Lord Di to help him find some not-so-rare natural treasures. After a few decades, his injuries gradually improved.
Celestial Lord Di's troubles had been resolved by the wise old man, Shao Yang, in the past.
What surprised Celestial Lord Di even more was that the old man seemed to have the ability to predict things. His predictions were always very accurate, allowing Celestial Lord Di to be prepared in advance and avoid several disasters. He even resolved a life-and-death crisis for Celestial Lord Di.
However, the good times did not last long. That old man Shao Yang only stayed in the Wood Puppet World for 30 years before leaving.
How could Celestial Lord Di let such an expert go so easily? In order to persuade Shao Yang to stay, Celestial Lord Di even kowtowed to Shao Yang sincerely, hoping that Shao Yang would become his disciple.
Although Shao Yang didn't display any cultivation, his unfathomable temperament and the natural momentum in his every movement showed that Shao Yang was definitely an expert.
However, at that time, Shao Yang had only said one sentence to dispel Di Tianjun's idea of keeping him here.
"Nading, you should have seen how badly injured I was at that time. What do you think would happen if someone who could injure me to such an extent found this place? "
Shao Yang's words immediately made Heavenly Lord Di feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"If I stay here, I'll only bring you trouble. Now that I've helped you avoid a life-and-death calamity, I'm already in defiance of the natural order. I'm also repaying your kindness. "
Before Shao Yang left, he gave an inconspicuous ring, which was the Sixth Star Defense Ring in Ling Dong's hands, to Celestial Lord Di Nading. At that time, he said, "You'll encounter another life-and-death calamity in 1,000 years. No one can help you avoid it, and it'll also bring harm to your family's descendants."
While Celestial Lord Di was still in shock, Shao Yang added, "However, if you have this item, do as I say. Although it can't help you avoid the life-and-death calamity, it can help your family's descendants avoid the calamity and bring blessings to your descendants for thousands of years."
After leaving behind a few words, Shao Yang floated away.
In the next few hundred years, the few things that Shao Yang had predicted about Celestial Lord Di before he left came true one after another, making Celestial Lord Di feel like a god.
Since then, Celestial Lord Di had worn this item on his finger every day according to Shao Yang's instructions.
When he and his army were lured into the ambush of the Southern Wilderness Star Region's army, Celestial Lord Di realized that his life-and-death calamity might have arrived.
However, because the 1,000 years that Shao Yang had predicted was coming to an end, Celestial Lord Di had made Di Nankun the Young Celestial Lord several decades ago and started to train him and transfer his power to him.
Otherwise, Di Nading would not have let Di Nankun hold the power of the Wood Puppet Realm alone.
The jade talisman did not mention much about what happened after that. It was written intermittently, and it was extremely difficult. The general idea was that Celestial Lord Di had swallowed the ring before he was captured.
After he was captured, he was interrogated every day. Although the interrogation was vague, Celestial Lord Di knew that it was about the whereabouts of the old man, Shao Yang, and the item that he had left behind.
During the interrogation, Celestial Lord Di could not bear it anymore and wanted to hand over the ring several times. However, Shao Yang's words of "blessings to your descendants for thousands of years" made Celestial Lord Di resist several times.
Of course, more importantly, even Celestial Lord Di, who had been tortured, knew the condition of his body better. Even if he handed over the ring, he would only be asking for a quick death. His body's condition did not allow him to live at all.
Blessings to your descendants for thousands of years was like a spell that became Celestial Lord Di's Dharma treasure to withstand torture again and again until Ling Dong arrived.
"It seems that Shao Yang has the Divine Power to foresee the situation 1,000 years in the future. In that case, it's very likely that he's Slave Yang." After thinking carefully for a while, Ling Dong made a certain judgment.
According to Ling Dong's understanding, this Divine Power of foresight was a Divine Power that appeared when one comprehended the Yang Law of Heaven and Earth, one of the two great Laws of Heaven and Earth, to an extremely high level.
In that case, the Star Control Ring that Shao Yang had left for Celestial Lord Di, which was the sixth Star Control Ring, should be the Yang Ring of the two rings of Yin and Yang.
"Yang Ring … I'm looking forward to the Divine Power of the Yang Ring." The corners of Ling Dong's mouth revealed a hint of anticipation. According to the inheritance of the Star Demon and the deceased Mu Yuan, as long as one obtained the Yang Ring and refined it, one's strength would improve rapidly and one would also have a certain level of self-protection ability.
This kind of self-protection ability referred to facing the True God of Zhou Tian or even an existence stronger than that. Of course, it was only a certain level of self-protection ability.
The last words in the jade talisman puzzled Ling Dong a lot.
Ling Dong wondered if Shao Yang had foreseen his existence 1,000 years ago.
In other words, had everything that Shao Yang had done 1,000 years ago been prepared for Ling Dong?
However, what puzzled Ling Dong the most, or what he wanted to know the most, was whether Shao Yang was still alive. If he was, why hadn't he appeared with his terrifying Divine Power of Foresight?
According to Celestial Lord Di's last words, Mo Jingtian and the others from the Earth Deer World had interrogated him about Shao Yang's whereabouts.
In other words, Shao Yang had not been found by the group of people who were looking for him. How was he alive?
Who was the mysterious gray-robed man with the cultivation level of the True God of Zhou Tian who had appeared at the last moment?
Could he be the Yin Slave?
Or the Yin Slave's subordinate?
Or what was his identity?
With all kinds of difficult doubts, Ling Dong's Spiritual Force landed on the sixth Star Control Ring, which was very likely to be the Yang Ring. According to the secret method in the inheritance of the Star Demon, he began to refine the sixth Star Control Ring.
However, the moment Ling Dong's Spiritual Force landed on the sixth Star Control Ring, the feeling was completely different from when he had refined the previous five Star Control Rings. In an instant, Ling Dong almost cried out in surprise.
The moment his Spiritual Force landed on the sixth Star Control Ring, the sixth Star Control Ring flashed with a silver light. Like a tired bird returning to its nest, it whistled and instantly shot towards the back of Ling Dong's head.
That amazing speed made Ling Dong think that the sixth Star Control Ring was going to open a big hole in his head.
However, Ling Dong only felt a chill at the back of his head. The sixth Star Control Ring flashing with a silver light escaped into his mind and flew towards the Star Master Disk that was hovering above his Rainbow Divine Fetus.
Almost at the same time, the five Star Control Rings of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth that had been inlaid on the Star Master Disk involuntarily burst out with their own unique brilliance mixed with silver light. It was dazzling and had a sense of jubilation.
The five Star Control Rings of Gold, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth seemed to be welcoming their king. In the midst of the dazzling brilliance, the sixth Star Control Ring flashing with a pure silver brilliance slowly and solemnly landed on the inlay at the top of the Star Master Disk.
In Ling Dong's eyes, it was like the return of a king.
The moment the sixth Star Control Ring landed on the inlay at the top of the Star Master Disk, a silver brilliance suddenly burst out, covering the respective colors of the five Star Control Rings.
It covered the colors of Ling Dong's Rainbow Divine Fetus and Ling Dong's six Divine Crystals. In Ling Dong's mind, there was only a kind of silver brilliance left. It was a dazzling silver brilliance that was like a ruler descending upon the world.
Almost at the same time that the silver brilliance descended upon the world, a silver pillar of light that was hard to see with the naked eye instantly shot out from the Alkaid Star Monarch's residence and soared into the sky.
An extremely faint silhouette that was somewhat astonished mixed with a trace of confusion was at the top of the silver pillar of light. It broke through the sky and stood in the mysterious and dazzling All-heaven Starfield's sea of stars.
"I … have come here again …"
Ling Dong's eyes suddenly widened. This place was somewhat familiar to him.
Back then, when he used the true number one Forbidden Technique of the All-heaven Starfield, Commanding the Heavens, Star Control, his Divine Sense was also sent here by the silver pillar of light. However, at that time, it was too rushed and it was extremely vague.
Now, however, he could see it very clearly.
In the vast sea of stars of the All-heaven Starfield, red, green and blue brilliances were relying on those dazzling stars. They either flowed or fused together, making the entire All-heaven Starfield appear exceptionally magnificent.
However, what caught one's attention the most were the rather strange two kinds of brilliances.
One of them was a bright yellow brilliance. Almost every star would emit a faint or dense bright yellow brilliance. However, at this moment, apart from the eight brightest stars in the surroundings that gathered a large amount of bright yellow brilliance, the bright yellow brilliance in the direction of the southern Lu Huang Starfield seemed to be slightly dimmer.
Apart from that, the bright yellow brilliance was all gathered in the area of the Big Dipper. Moreover, it seemed to be of varying thickness.
With a thought, Ling Dong suddenly came to a realization. Just as he was about to clearly see the thickness of the bright yellow brilliance distributed in the area of the Big Dipper, he saw the wind and clouds in the various stars of various sizes in the All-heaven Starfield suddenly move.
Silver brilliance of various sizes escaped from the stars of various sizes in the All-heaven Starfield. Like silver fish, they charged toward the area of the Big Dipper that was covered in a thick layer of bright yellow brilliance.
