Above The Sky

Chapter 2158 - 61: Ultimate Serenity (Part 2)

Of course, there are other Magical Beasts on the scene.

"Bai Ji, Fuersti, are you going to say something or not?"

Being criticized by his own kind, Yingye was genuinely anxious this time. He turned his head to look at a beautiful person in a white robe with indistinguishable gender who was dozing off, and a Crystal Dragon Person playing with his fingers and adorned with four dragon horns: "If Humans become dominant, there’s no way we can go to the New Continent, let alone the edge of the continent. We would have to flee to other planets!"

"Sigh."

The beautiful person with white hair had just awoken and yawned, while the Crystal Dragon Person showed off his sharp teeth: "You’re overthinking it. The Silverpeak Seer is generous. Even though you challenged him and got beaten up, he didn’t kill you. He just wanted to establish his authority casually."

"As for the New Continent, it’s probably reserved for us Magical Beasts. Although you guys may not know, I’m very clear that the master of the New Continent, ’Glass Emperor Dragon’, is actually an avatar of the Silverpeak Seer. He’s unified the New Continent using a Magical Beast form. As long as we go there and show a little deference, becoming one of the Four Heavenly Kings isn’t hard."

At this point, the Crystal Dragon became rather smug: "Anyway, serving Humans is worse than serving my own kin—the Crystal Dragon is invincible in the world!"

"Are we not moving past the fact that I got beaten by the Silverpeak Seer?" The master of Yingye laughed angrily: "Weren’t you also beaten? And there are five of us, how can the Four Heavenly Kings be enough?"

"There are originally five members among the Four Heavenly Kings." Bai Ji woke up, speaking in a soft, gentle voice that made him seem like an inexperienced young lady (?), though everyone knew that he was the wisest among the Wise Magical Beasts on the scene—he could even play political games with Humans and managed to become a Governor with independent authority over a territory!

Bai Ji raised his finger and shook it: "I, along with the Southern Duke, are colleagues, we are both Imperial People. If he wants to be a spokesperson of the Terra, I support it."

"Speaking of which, Yingye, why are you opposed? Isn’t the Southern Duke an easy person to talk to? If you go to the Silverpeak Domain, and talk to his Sunbird or Alchemy Supervisor about wanting to collaborate and research shadow spaces together, they’d certainly invite you to be a guest and treat you as a valued visitor!"

The master of Yingye was so frustrated his teeth were ready to shatter—these bastards, each one unclear with the Humans, either as partners or leaders or even as Totems! Yet he himself was a solitary figure, subtly mocked by these comrades for being beaten by the Silverpeak Seer!

—Heh, just wait, a thousand years from now, my name and species will be passed down because of being beaten, whereas you all will be forgotten in history!

With a feeling of being resigned to fate, the master of Yingye revealed his true thoughts: "I don’t mind if the Silverpeak Seer becomes a Star God, he truly is large-hearted, I accept that—but what I’m afraid of is other Terra people becoming The Creator!"

Saying this, Yingye looked outside the window with disgust and in the direction of Terra: "Those arrogant Humans... Our ancestors once battled for the universe alongside The Creator against great enemies. We naturally have the right to live in this world!"

"It’s fine they dominate the mainstream, but why should they hunt our descendants for materials and oppress us as enemies!"

"Some descendants are unable to awaken Wisdom and are merely beasts, dead and gone—that’s okay." Lady Wilderness sighed, turning in her bottle: "Their deaths can help our descendants integrate into Humanity, it’s a path in itself... But in the future, if the Arcane Pathway truly becomes widespread, we Magical Beasts might not even have ’functions’, and may really be eradicated."

"When I think of this, I actually understand Yingye’s anger and anxiety, but what’s the use of being urgent? In the end, we can’t obtain a Perpetual Motion Machine, we can only follow fate..."

"A thousand years later, even if that Human Creator doesn’t bear any malice towards us, under the ever-growing pressure of Humans, we will eventually become mere dust in history."

Lady Wilderness’s words proved he was not without thought before, but after contemplating, he realized nothing can be done and could only pass the days drinking.

"In truth, if you ask me, let’s not bother persisting."

Bai Wo also felt helpless, Yingye’s words reflected his own worries, yet he had no solution—his clan, being essentially Undead, has some buffer; everyone dies, and the clan becomes irrelevant, but the Bai Wo civilization has species with Wisdom before death, what will become of them?

So he could only sigh and say: "Let’s simply not insist on being Wise Magical Beasts, let’s take our descendants and become Humans instead."

Upon hearing this, the other four Fifth Energy Level Magical Beasts all turned their heads, some glaring, some watching the fool, others merely helpless, waiting for him to finish.

And Bai Wo continued: "Ultimately, if the Arcane Pathway continues to spread, and there’s a strong Human becoming The Creator... Then he will surely fulfill the Creator’s promised grand undertaking: Creating the Ring World."

"The Silverpeak Seer told us this, if it’s him, he will probably do so; if it’s someone else, they likely won’t just watch as Terra remains so small, creating a Ring World is appropriate."
