Chapter 122: A Heaven-Sent Opportunity
Just like that, with tens of thousands of clones searching together, after spending over a month, he truly discovered quite a few anomalies among the various tribes of the Human Race.
Among the thousands of anomalies, Ao Qing selected over a hundred that were most likely to be signs of the Heavenly Sovereign's birth.
Most of these anomaly points were formed by the birth of descendants from the union of the Human Race and other races.
Of course, among them, he also discovered quite a few situations suspected to be the gestation of innate sacred beings.
After informing the Divine Court Inspector of this matter, Ao Qing continued his search mission.
And so.
Ao Qing spent another half a month or so focusing on and examining those anomaly points suspected to be the target.
Finally, he arrived at the Huaxu Tribe, located at the junction of the East Sea Coast and the Yellow River Basin.
Along the way, the days of training among the Human Race made Ao Qing feel an unprecedented sense of mission.
Perhaps it was the qualities within the Human Race that moved him, unexpectedly allowing him to perceive the principle of the Wood Element Great Rice—that of unyielding perseverance.
The Huaxu Tribe, to other tribes, was an emerging tribe, a small tribe established by the Human Race's Suirenshi Houshang.
Therefore, although it was situated on the East Sea Coast, it was actually not far from the Yellow River Basin.
This was because a branch of the Yellow River, a place named Yushui, connected to the great plains of the East Sea Coast; the terrain was relatively low, so there were many depressions, lakes, and marshes in this area.
Among them, Leize was one.
The reason he came here was because Ao Qing wondered if this Heaven-ordained Heavenly Sovereign had not yet been born, which was why he had been made to run about for over a month.
And so.
The strange event in the Huaxu Tribe of a woman surnamed Feng becoming pregnant before marriage, despite still possessing her virginity mark, reached his ears.
Thinking that since it was the Heaven-ordained Heavenly Sovereign, there must be no father figure among the Human Race capable of bearing the Cause and Effect.
Therefore, it must be a semi-innate being born by borrowing a body.
And so.
Ao Qing traveled all the way to the Huaxu Tribe.
Under his observation over several days, a thunder-type exotic beast frequently delivering food to the woman surnamed Feng caught his eye.
This exotic beast was a Qilin, possessing a lion's head, deer's antlers, elk's body, tiger's eyes, dragon's scales, and an ox's tail! However, observing its state, it should have only recently transformed from a Qilin body into a God Body; at this time, it was only at the True God Realm, and not far from the Main God Realm.
This must be the mount of some God Race Great God, right? Ao Qing could not help but think to himself.
As for that woman surnamed Feng, under Ao Qing's observation.
At this time, she looked like an ordinary human woman six months pregnant, but in reality, it had already been four years.
What truly shocked and delighted him was that although the fetus in the woman's womb was not yet fully formed, it already had a human shape, and its body was surrounded by purple Qi and golden light, giving one a sense of an indescribably noble imperial aura.
It could be confirmed; this was the Heaven-ordained Heavenly Sovereign they were looking for! Since it was already confirmed, staying here was useless; he should first determine which God Race Great God this Lei Qilin belonged to.
And so.
Once, when the Lei Qilin was delivering food, Ao Qing followed the direction it left in and quickly gave chase.
After the Lei Qilin arrived beside Leize and lay down, Ao Qing transformed back into his God Body and descended directly in front of it.
The Lei Qilin had just lain down when it suddenly discovered a person in front of it and was greatly alarmed.
In its haste, it quickly jumped up, thunder flickering on its head, with a look of vigilance, while roaring, "Who are you?!"
The person who came was naturally Ao Qing! However, he did not reveal his Dragon God Body, but instead appeared before it in his human God Body.
After all, he could not be sure if this Lei Qilin still held a grudge against the Dragon Race.
When the Lei Qilin felt the immense Divine Will emanating from Ao Qing, and that it was not the magic power of the Mysterious Gate Immortal Rice, the Lei Qilin was stunned.
Immediately, it respectfully called out, "Junior Leiyun greets the Great God!" Seeing this, Ao Qing could not help but smile faintly, "No need to be nervous, this seat will not do anything to you!"
"I wonder what important matter the Great God has with this little god?"
"This seat sees you delivering food to a human woman every day; why is that?"
Upon hearing this, Leiyun could not help but speak cautiously.
"The Great God may not know, but my Qilin race was valued by the Shanhai Imperial Court years ago, so the entire race moved to the Shanhai Jie of the Shanhai Imperial Court. Our Patriarch Leiyuan is currently a Great God under the Heavenly Dragon Great God King. And I was invited by Leize to deliver food to that human woman for nine years!"
"Leize? Who is that?"
"Leize is the innate sacred being transformed from the thunder of the Leize here. Because he is currently at a critical juncture, he entrusted Leiyun to deliver food to that woman."
"Oh? Then what relationship does this Leize have with that woman?"
Ao Qing could not understand what relationship a deity transformed from an innate sacred being could have with an ordinary woman, and why he would entrust a God Beast Qilin to deliver food for her for nine years! "This..." Leiyun did not know how to say it at this moment.
Seeing this, Ao Qing could not help but smile in realization, then smiled with understanding, and stopped asking, instead asking him.
"Your Qilin race and the Dragon Race were old enemies; why are you..."
Leiyun naturally understood his meaning, so Leiyun smiled calmly and composedly.
"That matter passed countless years ago; we have long since let it go. Furthermore, I heard my Patriarch speak of the events of that year; that should have been a conspiracy by the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou!"
"Haha... Indeed!"
Hearing this, Ao Qing was very happy and immediately stopped hiding, revealing his true Dragon God Body.
"This seat is of the Azure Dragon race, and is currently the First Disciple under the Divine Court's Qingtian Supreme Emperor, Ao Qing!"
Ao Qing smiled slightly.
Below, Leiyun saw this and was also shocked in his heart, stuttering and unable to speak.
"You need not be nervous. This seat has come to the Lower Realm under the orders of my teacher to find someone in the Human Race and take them as a disciple!"
Ao Qing said solemnly.
"The Human Race? Could it be that the Great God..." Hearing this, Leiyun was somewhat surprised, and thinking of what Ao Qing had just asked, he could not help but ask cautiously.
"Not bad, just as you think!"
Ao Qing nodded and said.
"If the Great God can take them as a disciple, it is their heaven-sent opportunity. I believe Leize will certainly agree. Leiyun thanks Great God Ao Qing on behalf of Leize!"
Upon understanding that Ao Qing had come this time to take the fetus in the womb of the woman surnamed Feng as a disciple, Leiyun also said with some excitement.
After all, he had taken care of that woman surnamed Feng for several years, and he also had some feelings about the woman's living conditions; now that they could catch the eye of the First Disciple under the Blue Heaven Supreme Great Emperor, that was certainly a tremendous stroke of fortune.
Regarding this, Leiyun was genuinely happy for Leize and the fetus in the womb of that woman surnamed Feng.
"Since you have been entrusted by Leize, then this seat shall return to take them as a disciple after your nine-year period is successfully completed, and at the same time, this seat will also bestow upon you a stroke of fortune!"
"Ah? How could this be!" Leiyun was greatly shocked and immediately felt somewhat embarrassed.
"This is what you deserve; when the Heavenly Sovereign returns to their throne in the future, you will certainly also obtain a portion of merit, therefore you are worthy of this stroke of fortune!"
Ao Qing smiled mysteriously.
"Heavenly Sovereign? Merit?"
Hearing this, Leiyun was somewhat bewildered.
He truly could not imagine that merely taking care of a mortal woman for a short nine years for a good friend would actually lead to such a stroke of fortune! Thinking of this, he could not help but be curious about what identity the fetus in the womb of that woman surnamed Feng actually possessed to have such great influence.
