Chapter 54 Ch 54: Ye Xiao Is Not The Destined One
Although Yu Feng had investigated Ye Xiao, he was able to know only things that Ye Xiao had shown in public.
When Ye Xiao was just born, he devoured Golden Heart Sacred Fruit and raised his cultivation to the Third Realm of Foundation Building instantly. This happened before many pairs of eyes, and thus, Yu Feng got to know Ye Xiao can devour everything.
Just like his devouring ability, Ye Xiao also showed his ability to teleport in front of everyone in the Illusionary Spirit Gate. His intention behind doing this was to make everyone in the Illusionary Spirit Gate obediently submit to him and not plot against him.
Because there were many witnesses, Yu Feng also got to learn about Ye Xiao possessing the ability to teleport.
In the Ye Family, it was Ye Xiao who informed everyone that Living Flowers are not actually Living Flowers but vengeful souls suffering while being trapped in a huge formation enveloping the entire garden. At that time, Ye Xiao revealed that he has the ability to see through all illusions.
Of course, Ye Xiao also destroyed countless vengeful souls there, but he never let anyone know that he did this with his ability called Soul Destruction.
Thus, Yu Feng has no idea about Soul Destruction ability.
After investigating Ye Xiao, he only got to know that Ye Xiao possesses the ability to devour, teleport, and see through all illusions. And these abilities all came from the blessings of the Land of Morning Stars.
As for immunity from all poisons and Soul Destruction, no one has any idea about these abilities.
And there is also World Exterminating Fist. In Yu Feng and other people's eyes, this ability is not an ability but a combat skill.
Yu Rong and Yu Han nodded their heads in agreement upon hearing Yu Feng.
Yu Han suddenly seemed to have thought of something. A surprised expression appeared on her face as she spoke: "How could that be? No matter which one, every ability Ye Xiao has shown is outstanding. The Land of Morning Stars is just a small land. How could it bless someone with these powerful abilities? And there are three of them!"
Yu Han and Yu Feng fell into deep thought when they heard this. They never thought of this question before. Now that they think about it, everything seemed to be wrong here.
Even if it is a big land, it will only bless someone with one ability. There has never been a record of any land blessing someone with more than one ability.
Yu Han himself was an incarnation of land who escaped from the rule of Chaos. No one knows LANDS better than Yu Han.
"As far as I think, there can only be one reason."
Hearing Yu Han's words, the two were surprised.
"What?"
"If a Land wants to bless someone with more than one ability, it must cut a portion of its own origin and fuse it with the blessed person's body. This way, that Land will form a deep bond with the blessed person and could give more than one blessing."
"However, doing this is not feasible normally. There are greater risks than benefits."
Yu Feng thought for a while and asked again, "Tell me about risks!"
There seemed to be something in his mind. He also want to say what he had in his heart, however, he chose to wait until Yu Han's explanation.
Yu Han then explained everything.
"Actually, when a Land normally blesses someone, that person has to be the most talented person ever to be born on that land. By doing this, a Land forms a kind of fate with that person. As long as that person becomes stronger and stronger, because of fate, the Land will also grow stronger along with that person. And far in the future, there might come a day where that Land will evolve into a greater Land."
"As for the Land of Morning Stars, it blessed Ye Xiao with three abilities by cutting off its own origin and fusing it with Ye Xiao's body and soul. This way, it formed a deeper bond with Ye Xiao. As long as Ye Xiao survives and continued to become stronger, in just short thousand years, that Land is guaranteed to evolve. This is because of the origin of the Land fused in Ye Xiao's body."
"As for the risk, when a person blessed normally dies, there is no risk at all. However, if Ye Xiao, a person who has fused with the origin of a Land, dies, the Land will not only suffer the loss of its origin, it will also receive backlash and might become a dead Land."
Yu Rong and Yu Feng were surprised when they heard this. Even though they have lived for countless years, this was a totally new piece of information that is not available anywhere in the entire chaos.
"That must be the case. Now I understand why Ye Xiao has traces of Origin of Chaos in his body. This must be it!"
Yu Feng suddenly muttered which not only attracted both Yu Han and Yu Rong but also puzzled them.
"Senior brother Feng, what do you mean?" Yu Rong blinked her red eyes and asked curiously. Yu Han also nodded his head, wanting to know what Yu Feng was talking about.
Taking a deep breath, Yu Feng exploded a bomb on them, saying, "Ye Xiao is not the destined one we were waiting for!"
"What? How could that be?"
"Exactly. He clearly possesses the Origin of Chaos. According to the prophecy made by our master, the destined one will have the Origin of Chaos in his or her body. Ye Xiao is clearly the one we were waiting for."
Shaking his head, Yu Feng said: "You two are wrong here. Ye Xiao is not the one we were waiting for. We were waiting for the destined one to appear."
Without waiting for the two to speak anything, he continued, "Actually, our master not only said that the destined one will have the origin of chaos in his or her body, but that person will also have fate with the Lotus of Chaos."
"And that person is not Ye Xiao but someone else!"
"Someone else?"
Both Yu Han and Yu Rong were shocked. They have a disbelieving expressions on their faces. They clearly could not come to make themselves believe Ye Xiao is not the one they were waiting for but someone else.
How could that be possible?
Thinking that Ye Xiao is the destined one, Yu Rong even started training Ye Xiao personally so that Ye Xiao could pass the second and third trails and obtain the second and third keys.
But now, they were learning that Ye Xiao is not that person.
How could they believe it immediately?
Yu Feng took a deep breath and explained, "Do you remember, when we saw Ye Xiao for the first time, I clearly said Ye Xiao might not be the one we are waiting for."
Yu Han and Yu Rong clearly remembered this. Yu Feng did oppose the idea of Ye Xiao being the destined one.
Yu Feng continued: "Actually, a week before Ye Xiao's appearance, a person appeared in my Golden Tower. Just like Ye Xiao, she also had traces of the Origin of Chaos in her body and soul, however, unlike Ye Xiao, you could easily sense Chaos' Origin from her. I immediately knew she was the destined one. I sent her for the trial. and chose to wait until she pass the trial to tell you two about it."
"And just as I expected, she passed the trial completely relying on her own strength, unlike Ye Xiao who got lucky and obtained the First Key."
"I agree Ye Xiao is born with great talent, his comprehension ability is also outstanding. However, he is not the one we were waiting for. It was pure luck and coincidence for Ye Xiao to obtain the First Key!"
When Yu Feng was done speaking, the space fell into complete silence. No one said anything for a long time.
Finally, Yu Han spoke, "How can there be two people born with the Origin of Chaos in the same era?"
Yu Rong also nodded and agreed with Yu Han, saying, "And... Remember, no one could notice our presence in the Golden Tower, however, Ye Xiao noticed Senior Brother Han's presence. It also shows Ye Xiao is not simple at all. Moreover, how could you be so sure that Ye Xiao is not the destined one but that girl is."
As if Yu Feng expected these questions. He finally explained everything, starting from answering Yu Han's question.
"Let us first talk about how could two people with Origin of Chaos appear in the same era."
"As we all know, there can only be one person in an era born with the Origin of Chaos. However, such a person has never appeared in many eras we have been waiting for. I was also puzzled over this question, but now, I know the answer."
