《Consuming Earths, Devouring Skies 》Chapter 446: A Decision To Change The Heavens
Advertisement
With the deal with Ezekiel established, Yan Zaizen was thrusted into another adventure of his that will reshape the lives of countless souls, and likely reap the lives of countless more. However, his instincts told him that this choice of his will be beneficial in the long run.
As for how? He wasn't certain, but he'd rarely felt such a strong instinctual impulse before. This wasn't a challenge he could avoid, and it might be the only way to ensure the safety of his original body.
"What do you need to recover your Soul Power?" Ezekiel asked, this was crucial and they were on a specific time table. If it truly took too long, he could only hope that a power that rivaled the Divine Soul Realm could stall for a certain period of time.
Yan Zaizen glanced at Shin Xuanji, who replied with a look of his own. "My current soul state is almost as if I'm dehydrated and malnourished. I just need sufficient soul-based materials to refine. The issue is that the time to refine these materials might be a little long."
Ezekiel nodded in understanding. With a pondering frown, he thought for a short moment. A faint smile formed at the edge of his lips alongside the brilliance of excitement within his eyes. "I have a solution."
Yan Zaizen didn't expect anything less from the former son of a Heavenly God. He survived being devoured by the Black Hole and an encounter with that strange existence. The former highlighted his vast fortune, the latter highlighted his great luck.
All of his former plans to slowly refine soul-based resources or extract the Soul Essence from the Dead Soul Desert were slowly thrown away. With an alternative before him, his path was looking brighter.
"Will you come along?" Yan Zaizen asked Shin Xuanji. Shin Xuanji was a figure that had comprehended a Sovereign's Dao, his future and potential was only limited by his environment, his resources, and his outlook. If he stepped out of this realm, he would discover the grandness of the world beyond.

Shin Xuanji frowned, "Will you take Senior Sister Fei?"
"Her choice is her choice. I will only give her the option, just like you." Yan Zaizen had never been one who liked to dictate an individual's choice based on whether he believed they should or shouldn't do something. Their choice; their lives; their fate. It all belonged to them.
The only aspect he wouldn't do was take away her ability to make that choice.
Shin Xuanji frown deepened, but after a moment, he relaxed. "I'll go. A fight for the Heavens themselves? I can't miss it."
Simultaneously, the both exchanged glances and smirked. They were both Sovereign's that sought to obtain things through power. One wanted to control his own fate, the other wanted everything he ever desired and more. Within the depths of their pupils, their Daos ignited.
Ezekiel's Dao resonated. "Three Sovereign Daos?" He was shocked as he turned to Shin Xuanji, now realizing that his Dao was similarly at the Upper-tier and of the similar make as theirs. The main difference was that Yan Zaizen had a trace of Heavenly Aura and Ezekiel was a False Grand Dao, at the precipice of reaching the highest limits.
"It's not just three," Yan Zaizen corrected.
"There's another Sovereign?" Ezekiel was taken aback. The concept of a Sovereign's Dao was not to be taken lightly and formulating it required an extremely complex set of will and belief. Anyone who can forge a Sovereign's Dao had the right to become the Sovereign of the Heavens themselves.
"Not just a normal Sovereign, either." Shin Xuanji corrected as well, his eyes burning with a fiery surge.
Ezekiel's eyes widened. Four? How were there four Sovereign Daos in a single realm right now? What or how could that even happen? The hell that he had to escape, the number of deadly tribulations he had to survive, and the willpower he had to forge to structure a Sovereign's Dao wasn't insignificant.

"Let's go," Yan Zaizen urged.
The three made their way back to the Xiantu Continent, returning to the castle that housed Shin Xuanji's descendants and Lin Feiling. When they returned, they were met with their gorgeous Senior Sister holding a snow-white puppy, her eyes calm and fixed on their figures.
She had clearly been waiting for a while. The snow-white puppy was already asleep, laid comfortably against her bountiful chest. It seemed to be in heaven.
Yan Zaizen warmly smiled, "You waited for me?" His tone was softly spoken, gentle as if talking to a wife that he worried for her husband throughout the name.
Lin Feiling glanced at Shin Xuanji who awkwardly smiled, scratching his head. He hadn't expected they would meet Ezekiel and vanish in an attempt to retrieve Yan Zaizen's original body. To add, they had just made a deal that would thrust them into a war over the Heavens themselves.
When her eyes turned to Ezekiel, a shocked expression emerged on both of their faces. Ezekiel was truly shocked, finding it utterly impossible. With widened eyes, he exclaimed: "She's female! She has a Sovereign's Dao? And she's female?" He had to repeat her gender twice, in utter disbelief.
In the history of the thirty-three Heavens, there was never a female Sovereign before. They would often form Empress' or a Queen's Dao, which wasn't on the same level, but very close. They just like an essential quality.
This wasn't a dig on females. The gender was terrifying in some ways far beyond men, but Daos were intrinsic in nature. There was an aspect that made it extremely difficult, if not outright impossible for a female to birth it. When he thought of this, he turned to Yan Zaizen.
His eyes glowed with realization, returning to gaze to look at Lin Feilin's displeased expression. Within the depths of her eyes was her Dao Light that was seething. "So that's what it is. How strange." With this said, he relaxed. He didn't care if Lin Feilin felt offended, she didn't know what he knew, so it was irrelevant.
Yan Zaizen found this odd. "What do you mean that's how it is?" He had a strange feeling that Ezekiel was aware of something that he didn't, and it might be very crucial to Lin Feilin's Dao.
But Ezekiel shook his head, "If I were to tell you, it'll cause too many issues. Don't ask again."
Yan Zaizen thought for a moment and narrowed his eyes. After a brief period, he briskly nodded. Ezekiel wouldn't unnecessarily keep information that was useful to himself. In the end, as long as he looked into the details of female Sovereigns, he would discover the answer.
Yan Zaizen flew down and arrived beside Lin Feilin, he began to tell her the details of their meeting and the deal to save his original body. Her expression was extremely colorful, changing with every sentence uttered. A fight to claim the heavens? What type of act was this?
She turned to Ezekiel to give him a deep observation. He wanted to be a Heavenly God? Was it really as easy as that?
"Will yo-"
"Yes. I will absolutely come." Yan Zaizen was in the process of asking Lin Feilin if she wished to come when she interrupted. There was no need to ask. She didn't wish to leave Yan Zaizen again if she had the choice. Wherever he went, she was intent on following.
Yan Zaizen expected nothing less from a Sovereign. With a smile, he turned to Ezekiel: "Shall we leave?" They were all ready to venture into the unknown, fight for the heavens and claim its spark.
As they made this decision, the thirty-three heavens were about to experience a vast, incredible change across all heavens!

I've incorporates the Path's system into the leveling of this story. Some of the beginning paths will be similar or the same as I thought that the starting paths were very logical on how a system should start. The stories will be completely different as the characters and story arcs will be completely different. Again, thank you Puddles for allowing me to use your system, really appreciate it! I also wanted to thank ProFound Magician. Has a lot of insight into a story development and as his system is based on Ghosthound, I saw a some beginning stage skills that should be thought of in a character just starting out.

Totally Not a Chosen Hero
Jesse's life just started to get great. He bought a comfy apartment, received an offer for a six-figure job, and scored a date with the girl of his dreams. But then, parallel world wizards magically kidnapped Jesse alongside a dozen of strangers. Has no one taught them consent?! The emperor and his confidants told Jesse and other earthlings that they were the Chosen Heroes and a bright future awaited them. Bullshit. That they just needed to learn magical combat at the academy, and then defeating Dark Lords would be easy-peasy. Oh yeah? That as long as they completed their sacred duty, they could choose to return to Earth or continue living on Aethelrend as kings and queens. No thanks. While other so-called Heroes were easily tricked by empty promises of power, riches, and even immortality, Jesse knew better than to believe his kidnappers. He was getting the hell out.
