Chapter 2096: The Radiant Seed, The Embodiment of Radiance, The Radiant Goddess
"Right Sky King, could those two heretics be..." Bishop Liu Hu of the Radiant Church went up and asked curiously.
The Radiant Right Sky King nodded. "You're right. They are two of the Eight Great Heretics, Ghost Shadow and Black Skull."
Ghost Shadow and Black Skull were listed among the Eight Great Heretics. Similar to Yu Yan and Hei Xuan, they were the best subordinates of the Dark Demonic Ruler.
"The Eight Great Heretics seem to be popping up one after another. Is the holy war between light and darkness about to break out?" Liu Hu asked anxiously.
"The light shall guide us to victory."
The Radiant Right Sky King held her silvery greatsword to her chest and said solemnly.
Liu Hu also uttered in a serious tone, "My duty is to forever follow the light, for everything we do is justice!"
"Very well."
The Radiant Right Sky King nodded and looked at the huge pit formed from an underground space nearby. "Let's search for the Doomsday Darkness."
Everyone worked together.
A group of them continued hunting down the remnant forces of the Darkness Tribe, while another group started their search for the Doomsday Darkness inside the pit.
The Doomsday Darkness was an inexplicably evil and ominous power of Darkness.
Everyone present was a Radiant Church cultivator, so they were perceptive to anything dark.
Logically speaking, there was no way such an extreme darkness could hide itself before their presence. However, after searching for a long time, they could not find anything resembling the Doomsday Darkness.
"Could it be that our intel was wrong? Was the Doomsday Darkness never in the Black Flame City?"
The Radiant Right Sky King frowned.
Suddenly, someone exclaimed in shock, "Honorable Right Sky King, look over there. What is that?"
They had dug out a huge white cube of light from inside the pit.
The Radiant aura exuded by the white cube was so intense that even the Bishop, someone who researched Radiant Dao, could not help but marvel at it.
"What intense Radiant energy. What is this white cube here?"
"I'm not sure. However, I sense signs of life inside it. Could it be carrying something?"
"Such majestic and pure Radiant energy! What kind of being has been growing inside that thing? Could it be the Child of Light mentioned in the Divine Scriptures?" someone said piously.
The Child of Light was a long-standing legend passed down from generations in the Radiant Church.
Back when darkness used to loom over and devour everything in the realm, a being conceived from the light would appear and turn the tide, saving the Infiniverse from darkness.
That being was known as the Child of Light.
However, that legend was as ancient as the Doomsday Darkness. Hence, no one knew whether it was true or false.
Yet, if the Doomsday Darkness truly existed, the Child of Light's existence should be true too.
The Radiant Right Sky King looked at the white cube and pondered. "Keep watch on this thing. I plan to bring it back to the church and personally hand it to the Goddess."
"Very well."
After more searching, there was no sign of the Doomsday Darkness.
Despite her frustration, the Radiant Right Sky King had no choice but to give up. She brought that unknown white cube back to the Holy Radiant Church.
...
Inside a magnificent silvery-white holy church amidst the stars, the holy Radiant Goddess, who had long golden hair and was donned in long white robes, was looking at the white cube with a curious gaze.
"I have never seen such dense and pure Radiant energy. The living being growing inside will surely be extraordinary," the Radiant Goddess mumbled.
She then asked about the Doomsday Darkness, to which the Radiant Right Sky King reported everything that happened truthfully.
The Radiant Goddess could not but look worried. "The power of the Doomsday Darkness is an extremely evil one. If left uncovered, it will surely stir up chaos and trouble throughout the land. If used by someone who sought power, a second Dark Demonic Ruler might even appear."
"I've ordered my men to continue searching for the whereabouts of this object with maximum effort," the Radiant Right Sky King said.
"Good. Knowing that you're handling this relieves me."
The Radiant Goddess looked at the white cube and said, "Pay close attention to this thing and let me know of any changes that happen to it."
As time passed, several years went by.
On that very day, the white cube trembled as if something was about to hatch from it.
The women taking care of it were surprised by the sudden occurrence. One of them quickly said, "Quick, inform the Goddess about this now."
The rest of them remained and continued watching the white cube curiously.
Just then, a dazzling divine light erupted from that white cube. Following that, the strands of Radiant energy forming the cube's structure began shrinking inward.
It eventually formed the figure of a human.
When the white light dispersed and everyone could finally see the person, they were shocked.
The person standing before them had skin as smooth as jade and long silvery-white hair flowing down his shoulders elegantly.
Every strand of his hair and every inch of his skin seemed to be made from the essence of the world. The faint Immortal Sparks around him also made him look mystical and otherworldly.
Most importantly, the Radiant aura exuding from his body was pure and holy.
It was as if the person before them was the embodiment of light itself.
As the Radiant Goddess's servants, those women cultivated the Radiant Dao, so they naturally felt attracted to him.
It was as if the male counterpart of the Radiant Goddess was standing before them.
The moment Chu Kuangren opened his eyes, a divine light flashed across his light golden pupils. When he looked at his surroundings, he was slightly surprised.
However, he did not panic. Instead, he asked Lil Ai what was going on.
"Master, we're now in the Holy Radiant Church. While the Radiant Seed was modifying your body, you were..."
Lil Ai then told him what had happened.
"What's my situation now?" Chu Kuangren asked.
"Master, your body has now been modified into the most suitable form for Radiant Dao. However, your previous form has not disappeared..."
While conversing with Lil Ai, he was also familiarizing himself with the newfound power in his body.
He could sense that every single cell inside his body was brimming with Radiant energy. His affinity and comprehension of the Radiant Dao also skyrocketed, immediately reaching the Great Dao level. His current state was worlds apart compared to his previous one.
It was no different than forcefully breaking through to the Grand Dao Realm from the Embodier Realm, skipping the Primordial Realm along the way.
However, he sensed that his previous cultivation base was still there. It was the form where he had integrated three thousand types of Dao and had yet to ascend to the Primordial Realm.
Since his current state was endowed by the Radiant Seed, he believed he could also switch back to his original cultivation base and continue from where he left off.
"Tsk tsk, the power of this Radiant Seed is simply amazing."
While Chu Kuangren was amazed by the transformation, he sensed two powerful auras approaching from the distance.
They were also extremely powerful. One of them even had a power level that exceeded anyone he had met before.
Two figures soon appeared in his view.
It was two blonde-haired women.
One of them looked indifferent and was clad in silvery-white armor. She had a tall and imposing figure and exuded a cold, unapproachable aura.
The other possessed a gorgeous appearance and smooth skin. She also exuded a faint majestic aura and was illuminating a divine radiance.
'This divine radiance...'
Chu Kuangren could confirm the identity of the person standing before him now.
"Your guess is correct, Master. This person is the Radiant Goddess, one of the beings at the pinnacle of power in the Infiniverse, a Monarch-realm Transcendentalist!"
