His skin was as pale as snow. If others were to look at it normally, they would think that it was already a corpse that was just being punished by the heavens for his sins. But as the ascendants were already powerful, they still sensed a flickering flame of vitality inside the body that might be extinguished by a single blow.
The ascendants were praying for Tiancai to die, but his body still persists.
When Matthias saw him, his eyebrows lifted and was scared silly. 'What the heck is this guy made of? Genius and talented madman.'
He recognized the red lightning that was currently descending on Tiancai. It was the Alphan Ruling Lightning, a lightning specifically made for the ascendants to face once they reach Divine Ascension. They just needed to endure one of the lightning strikes as it was very very painful and powerful. He estimated that he created the lightning 200 years ago in Alphan time, so realizing that this mad genius persisted for 200 years being smitten by the lightning scared even him.
"Alphan's energy was almost halved! The qi was reduced by 47%! That's a huge amount!" Matthias cried out.
He rushed and descended on Mt. Yitian. He summoned the twenty Overseers, Five Seraphims, and Three Princes of Hell to hold the Judgement.
"Overseers, High Angels, and Princes of Hell, I call upon the Judgement Tribulation. Appraise the mortal if he is rightful to ascend."
"We Overseers see potential and strength inside this young man. We approve of his Ascension." The twenty Overseers simultaneously spoke.
"We Angels have agreed upon the verdict of allowing this mortal to ascend." The Seraphim Aluman bowed.
"Although this mortal reeks of a disgusting smell of goodness, we shall still recognize his strength and allow his Ascension." One of the Three Princes, Sidio, The Prince of Strength, answered. He was a naturally ascended Demon Prince who ruled the War Demons. He defeated Duke Grom and had overtaken him on becoming a Prince.
"I, Creator of Worlds, personally hold the Judgement Tribulation. As this mortal persisted for 200 years while being smitten by the Alphan Ruling Lightning, I grant him approval of Ascension." After he said it, the storm clouds dispersed and Heavenly Light descended upon the body, healing it from any excess bruises.
His vitality slowly restored itself and later on burned brightly. His complexion turned to normal and he slowly reawakened.
His eyes opened and inside, was a deep set of orange eyes penetrating all things. The demons instinctively hated the feeling so they bowed to Matthias and returned to Hell immediately.
Tiancai noticed that someone was floating in front of him and there, he saw his god. His eyes flew right open and he bowed, "Greetings, Creator."
"Mhmm. You have ascended. It is a miracle for you to survive 200 years of the Alphan Ruling Lightning." Matthias smiled and went near him. He patted his back and chuckled.
"Yes, Lord. The power of that red lightning was 10× the power of the last lightning, then every round of the red lightning it doubled in power." When Tiancai remembered what he experienced, he instantly went weak with his mental power weakened within those 700 years while checking his surroundings.
"You didn't really need to endure that hardship for 200 years. Just one strike of the Ruling Lightning could make you ascend." Matthias chuckled half-heartedly. When Tiancai heard that, he then fainted completely.
It was three weeks later when he woke up again. He was in a cottage and he sensed that he was in a place where the qi was so pure and dense that it was intoxicating. He stood up slowly and walked to leave the cottage. When he opened the door and walked outside, he became dumbfounded.
Towering peaks of mountains and a long river below entered his sight. Clouds that were made from Primordial Qi were floating just below him. The sun emits a warm glow below it. Peaceful Divine Beasts roamed the land, waters, and sky.
Floating islands with waterfalls below it were roaming the world, moving as it willed.
In the Northern Sky, the sight of the Divine Kingdom could be clearly seen, while in the south was a gate decorated with bones, horns, and nether iron, Hell.
He knew that the things that he saw were far from him, but he knew he saw them clearly as if it was just above and below him, which baffled him.
He looked around the peak where he was. It was very high, and there was a plot of soil that is about two mu where he could plant crops for food.
"You're awake?" Suddenly, a man's voice sounded behind him, which startled him. He looked behind and there, Matthias was standing, smiling at him.
"Who are you?" As Matthias' form wasn't his God Form or the Hooded Man form, and instead on his mature Betania Body, Yi Tiancai didn't recognize him.
"I'm the one who gave you your Qilin Bloodline. What a shame for you to forget me." Matthias feigned sadness and shook his head.
"Ah! Pardon me, Creator!" He was startled and was scared so he kowtowed to say sorry. Although he was a prideful person, he still knew what's right and wrong and the things that needed to be done in certain situations.
"Just kidding." Matthias waved his hand and chuckled. "I'm just here to brief you of things. This is God's Land." He introduced the work to Yi Tiancai and explained to him the things that needed to be known.
"As you already know, this world is different from Alphan. The Qi here isn't Primordial Qi but God Qi. It is the purest Qi in all of my current creations. It is ten times denser than Primordial Qi, fifteen times more powerful than said Qi, and seven times heavier than said Qi."
"The metals and materials here are also a lot more different than Alphan. The materials here are embedded with Laws that make the things that it creates reach a far higher level. There is also an abundance of Interspatial Metal here to create an Interspatial Storage. You could use that to store items so that you wouldn't need to bring it with you always."
"You could also use the materials that's embedded with Laws to comprehend certain Laws that you want. It depends on you."
