Chapter 20 - Chapter 20: The Heavens' Child (Part 1)

The Heavens stirred in an unprecedented way. For the first time in millennia, an ominous sense of urgency swept through the Heavenly Court. The celestial gods looked down from their thrones, their divine senses reaching out to the mortal realm, where a disturbance in the natural order had begun to unfold. The forbidden child, Lin Feng was progressing faster than they had ever anticipated. His rise through the cultivation stages had set off alarm bells in the highest of places.

They could feel the shift, the power building within him. It was undeniable. Lin Feng's cultivation, guided by Master Yan's forbidden teachings had breached the boundaries of what was meant to be. He was on the path to becoming something far greater than even they could have predicted. His potential, now unlocked would be a challenge to the Heavens' control. To the Gods of the Heavenly Court, Lin Feng was more than just a threat. He was an anomaly a child born of the mortal world, yet possessing powers that will rival even the immortals.

"What is this?" a voice thundered from the towering court in the Upper Realm. It was the Supreme God, the ruler of the heavens, whose very presence could send shivers through the cosmos. His eyes, like burning coals narrowed as he observed Lin Feng's growing strength.

A voice spoke from the side belonging to one of the Celestial Judges, one who oversaw the laws that governed the realms. "He is breaking the natural order, my Lord. His talent, his growth... he is becoming an existential threat. Master Yan's forbidden teachings... we cannot allow this."

The Supreme God's gaze darkened. "Indeed. We must intervene before he becomes too strong. We cannot let him disrupt the balance. We need a countermeasure… a child, born of our divine will, one who is imbued with the heavens' blessing. This child will be the answer to Lin Feng's rise."

At the Supreme God's command, the Heavens set their plans into motion. Deep within the core of the Upper Realm, in a place beyond time and space, the very fabric of existence twisted and turned. A new soul was forged, a perfect, divine child blessed by the Heavens.

The skies above trembled. A sudden burst of golden light erupted from the very clouds themselves, casting a radiant glow across the heavens. The sky shimmered with golden hues as the very essence of divinity poured down. From this ethereal light, a figure materialized a child barely seven years old, born from the raw power of the Heavens. His hair was as white as snow, a stark contrast to Lin Feng's black hair. His eyes, like twin rubies, burned a fierce red, glowing with the intensity of a thousand suns. In contrast, Lin Feng's eyes were as calm as the sea, deep blue and serene. His presence was radiant, his aura fused with divine power that made it impossible for anyone in the mortal realm to comprehend.

The child was a perfect creation, designed to be the Heavens' instrument. His body was flawless, an impregnable vessel blessed with the strength of the gods. His every movement radiated divinity as though he had already transcended mortality and was destined to become a being of immense power. His aura was unmatched, and even the very fabric of the world seemed to bend around him, acknowledging his birth.

The Celestial Gods, watching from their ethereal thrones, bowed their heads in reverence as the child took his first steps in the realm of the living. They whispered his name in unison. The Heavens' Child.

Contrasting Lin Feng's existence, the forbidden child. The Heavens' Child stood as the very image of divine perfection, created with a singular purpose in mind.
