Chapter 1156 17.83 Fourth Violet Star - Knowledge about Vearth
Even though he survived, his cultivation suffered immensely and he was reduced to the status of a simple God when he dropped into this realm and encountered Parvana Eva von Chrysalis. He was smitten at first sight. Of course, his hesitation to court Parvana stemmed from his background. But Argus Blues von Chrysalis told him that as long as he is prepared to give up his former identity, the Chrysalis Clan will accept him. This lonely water dragon accepted and initially entered the Chrysalis Clan as a visitor.
Gradually, his bond with Parvana Eva strengthens, and they eventually become lovers and marry for love. It's simply that they couldn't produce children for the first part of their marriage, no matter what they did. After all, it's hardly unexpected that Parvana is a divinely endowed child. As the world's defender, Argus Blues von Chrysalis may be regarded the world's child, therefore when he requested for a child, the gods granted him one chance to get pregnant. Parvana Eva von Chrysalis was the result of Argus Blues von Chrysalis and Clodius von Chrysalis' love.
Parvana Eva von Chrysalis begs the heavens to let her have a child. The Heavens answered by telling you that in exchange, she would have to give up her divinity. She accepted the requirement without hesitation. Her family was reluctant to consent at first, and Orion was as hesitant. How long can his wife stay at his side if she turns mortal? He was horrified just thinking about it, but he couldn't stop his wife from wanting children.
At this point, his only option for extending his wife's life is to share his own. As a Divine Dragon, he has a far longer lifetime than others, and he has no issue surviving for a few thousand years with his wife.
Furthermore, he had been hiding from the Heavenly Laws of this planet for a long time, and it was only when he married Parvana Eva von Chrysalis that the heavens opted to disregard his background and even alter his name for him. Obviously, it aids him in concealing his prior identity. But hiding from a Sovereign God like the God of Void, who can see through the soul, is pointless. So when he summoned him to a meeting, Orion felt he had no option but to surrender. At least not in a way that would jeopardize his efforts to safeguard the Chrysalis Clan.
Who would have thought he'd win a special pardon from the Lord God of Nether Prison himself just because he's Lord Hei's reincarnation in this world? After he and his family rose, he was also given the option to work for the Nether System. Of course, he accepted straight away, and his initial cultivation had been healed owing to the World Tree's pure qi. He felt as if a stone had been removed from his heart.
After their conversation had ended, Ye Xiajie was suddenly called by his wife to come help in the kitchen.
Hei Anjing shouted from the kitchen, "A'Xia, I'm almost done cooking, help me bring the dishes out!"
"Yes, Baby. I'm coming~" Ye Xiajie's indifference completely faded at this moment as he ran towards the kitchen where he was summoned.
Orion von Chrysalis was sent out by Warden Lou, "Please go and join the rest. We will call everyone for dinner after a while."
After leaving the home to meet the rest of the family, Orion von Chrysalis. He observed his wife and two children, as well as Clodius von Chrysalis, who was still meditating under the white-leafed tree. While Argus Blues von Chrysalis was sipping tea at the stone table. As the Chrysalis Clan was missing for a few days, the Gretel Clan was ordered back to manage the remainder.
Argus Blues von Chrysalis gestures for Orion to come over, "Orion. Come and join this old man for tea."
Orion smiled and served more tea in his Dad's cup and said, "Dad is not old. You don't look old at all."
"Hm~ Did You finish your conversation with Caesar?" The Butterfly Emperor asked.
Orion von Chrysalis felt helpless and knew that his dad knew that he would be called by Lord God Ye. "Dad knows. It's about my former identity. Honestly, I used to be a bad Divine Dragon who escaped from his prison. Thankfully, I've gained enough merit to be pardoned by the Venerable Lord."
"We already know. Right from the very beginning that you are someone from beyond our world. After all, the only God in this universe is my family and I. But your soul even though it's a bit gray, it's not completely black. You are also kind to our little girl so we choose to not ask about your origins. We still haven't thanked you enough for sharing your lifespan with that naughty girl of ours. You have our greatest gratitude." Argus Blues von Chrysalis as he lowered his head before Orion von Chrysalis.
Orion von Chrysalis panicked seeing an elder of his family acting like this in front of him and hurriedly stopped his father-in-law.
"Dad, don't do that! Eva is my wife. When I make a vow with the heavens, I will never break it in all this life. Moreover, I'm from a long-lived race. Sharing my lifespan with her is not a problem at all. Dragons usually live for a few thousands of years so sharing half wouldn't make any difference." Orion von Chrysalis said while looking at his wife with a loving gaze.
Argus Blues von Chrysalis asked, "I see. This old man actually wanted to ask something about that world called Vearth. Is it really true that only God lives in that place?"
"I don't know much about Vearth but I've visited it a few times before. Those who had ascended would wake up to that land first and they would be recorded. Then they can choose to stay in Vearth for a few years before returning to their own world. After all, that place has strict requirements if you want to live there. The qi of that place is purer than the one this world tree is emitting. At least a thousand times purer. But because it is too pure, that low-class Gods cannot stay on that planet for too long or they would explode."
"Moreover, the weakest god that lives in this place is a Highgod. There are just normal residents of that place. Deities, Saints, and Gods can stay for at most a year but they will be treated lower than others. In that place, your cultivation speaks more than words. Weakling had no right to speak." Orion explained.
Argus Blues von Chrysalis frowned for a bit and thought that such a place which is ruled by power is too dangerous to live on.
"Doesn't that mean that low-class Gods are treated as slaves?"
"No, Dad. Don't take it wrong. Even though power speaks louder in the place, Slaves are not allowed. Even becoming a servant needs an equal contract between two people. The hiring process is handled by the system. If someone dares to bully or use their power to overwhelm someone, they would be thrown to the Nether Prison. That is a place feared by all divinity in existence. Because in the Nether Prison to be able to come out is rare, they most likely perish and never come out unless they were pardoned. Plus... The Sovereign God that handles that place is scary."
When the Nether Prison was mentioned, Argus Blues von Chrysalis recalled that Yaya's other half was the Overlord of such a place. His son-in-law is now calling his grandson-in-law scary.
"Are you talking about Caesar? You wouldn't have to fear him if you haven't done anything wrong, right?" Argus Blues von Chrysalis said.
Orion von Chrysalis said, "If Dad heard the rumors about that Venerable Lord you wouldn't believe he can smile like he can before us. He is the most feared Evil God in Vearth. There are only a few who can contend against him."
"But with how I see it, your son had full control over his man. What are you worried about? Just don't offend him if you are scared! Tell me a few more about Vearth like their power structure and clans that rule that place. It's better to learn this ahead of time than to be sorry when we go there." Argus Blues von Chrysalis said.
Orion von Chrysalis lowered his head and said, "Dad, the last time I went there I was only a God. So I don't know much about the power structure of Vearth. I've also caused a bad thing and got locked up in Nether Prison so..."
"Sigh~ okay, I know. You must be a hot-headed dragon to get to prison at such a young age."
Orion couldn't reject his father's comments since they were true. He is a mischievous celestial water dragon that pursues power at all costs and is punished for breaching divine laws by destroying the planet without cause. He is inexperienced in comparison to the God of Destruction, who would not be punished for mistakenly destroying a world since he could restore it if he so desired.
Dean Frey von Gregory who was on standby overheard their conversation and chose to help resolve the problem.
"If you wanted to know anything about Vearth, I should know the basics. Sir Argus wanted to know the power structure in Vearth. I can explain it to you. Vearth is under the control of two Main Systems: the God System and the Nether System. The difference between the two is that one is for work while the other is for redemption. Most Gods and Goddesses who stay in Vearth can earn resources for upgrading their strength works for the God System. Of course, you can also work as a warden in the Nether System but there are strict requirements for that so people rarely choose the job as a warden. After all, the minimum strength of a warden is at least the Mythical God cultivation stage."
"As you know Gods are those who seek immortality and strength. Vearth has the purest qi but at a certain point that wouldn't be enough to upgrade your strength so working for the God System is a choice for you. There are three categories of work in the God System you will learn it when you ascend."
"On the other hand, in the Nether System, the reason it was used for redemption is because prisoners were given a chance to gain merit which would help lessen their prison time. The restrictions are a lot stricter than those who work for the God System. This is a trial to check whether the prisoner is indeed repentant. I won't hide it from you. I used to be a prisoner as well as the Former God of Fate. But after completing my trials, Lord Hei allowed me to work for him. Lord Hei is my master and I am also a warden."
Orion von Chrysalis asked, "Then is it true that those prisoners who failed to complete their trial had their souls perished?"
"This is real. Because this means they were repentant at all and failed to gain the merit that would help them be pardoned." Warden Yun Ming said with a fake smile. This smile made the two who were listening shudder.
He then continues to tell them about the power structure in Vearth, "The two systems are under the control of four Sovereigns. There are four as the two Ruler Gods have their wives to help them with work. The God System is under the command of the Sovereign God of Light, Venerable Lord Shem Siwang, and his Lord Consort, the Sovereign God of Life and Death, Venerable Tyrant Lord Mo Baojun."
"For the Nether System, you guys met them already. The Sovereign God of Void and Darkness, Lord God Ye Xiajie, and the Sovereign God of Chaos and Destruction, Lord Hei Anjing. They control not only the Nether System but also the Netherworld and Nether Prison. Comparing the Sovereigns' raw power alone these two lords are the strongest. Their elements lean to power while the former lean-to creation."
"In Vearth, there are two special clans, the Hei Clan which is well-known for their control of Space Elements, and the Mo Clan which is well-known for their immortal physique. There is no rivalry between these two clans as they are already connected by marriage. In fact, Lord Mo Baojun is Lord Hei's Maternal Uncle. Lord Mo Baojun's Elder brother married Lord Hei Sian and gave birth to Lord Hei."
Argus Blues von Chrysalis asked, "How about Cae... I mean Lord Ye and Lord Shen, do they have their own clans?"
"They don't. These two Gods were created by the Origin and End. They are Ancient Gods and existed even before Vearth was made. They can be considered brothers as they are each other's alter ego." Warden Yun said.
Argus Blues von Chrysalis didn't know what an Ancient God meant but Orion von Chrysalis knew about it. That is an existence above all Gods. They were born even before the other life forms existed. An absolute existence.
"Ancient Gods..." mumbled Orion von Chrysalis in shock.
