Chapter 47: Third Broadcast: Heaven’s Chosen Secret Part Two – 02

On the screen, Wei Chen continued walking toward the mural on the wall, letting the broadcasting orb record it for the audience to see. The mural depicted the history and existence of the Heaven’s Chosen.

The records on the mural were illustrated in a pictorial form similar to ancient Egyptian carvings, but far more sophisticated and lifelike. Wei Chen walked along the wall until he reached a section with a hole that contained traces of spiritual qi.

He took out a spirit crystal he had robbed from the bounty hunters and placed it inside.

The moment the spirit crystal was set into the socket within the wall, the lifelike mural began to glow as if coming to life. Spiritual images moved like a hologram, presenting the records on the wall in a clearer, more vivid way.

Ancient texts appeared alongside the images, serving as evidence of the Heaven’s Chosen’s existence since ancient times, so ancient that the records dated back to the primordial era itself.

Old Man Who Likes History: [This… this… these texts match the rare records I have! This ruin is a genuine primordial ruin!]

Heavenly Eyes: [So that means this ruin might also contain rare and exotic artifacts or resources from the primordial age? Interesting.]

Old Man Who Likes History: [Not necessarily. From what I have gleaned from ancient primordial texts, there were many civilization-ending wars back then, the wars so great that even heaven trembled and was affected by them, wars that disrupted the Wheel of Samsara and the Dao path of cultivation itself! It stands to reason that such wars may have destroyed all resources left from the primordial era.]

The Wise King: [That’s still up for debate until we have the chance to enter this primordial secret realm and search it ourselves.]

Azure Sky Elder: [What His Highness said is right! I support finding this Wei Chen and forcing him to tell us where this ruin is!]

Sky-Severing Demon: [A bunch of hypocrites openly conspiring against someone, the level of shamelessness is truly eye-opening.]

On the screen, Wei Chen continued.

“Since I’m not a history expert and my knowledge of ancient text is only enough to grasp some of its meaning, I can only say this much. These writings on the mural serve as proof of the Heaven’s Chosen’s existence. They clearly state that the Heaven’s Chosen will have a great impact on the world itself, whether for good or for evil. In fact, the primordial era itself ended because of the battle between two Heaven’s Chosen.”

As Wei Chen spoke, the broadcasting orb showed the mural corresponding to his explanation.

Some viewers who were knowledgeable in ancient texts were in awe of the evidence. They grew increasingly eager to find this primordial secret realm and examine this invaluable historical treasure for themselves.

The camera returned to Wei Chen once again. He walked along the wall to another section while speaking toward the camera.

“Now, all of you might have already guessed it. These Heaven’s Chosen, each one of them holds great influence over the world. They are the protagonists of destiny and the darlings of heaven, so they must be extremely rare. The question is…” He stopped at a particular section of the wall and continued.

“How rare are they?” Wei Chen smiled, then walked toward a wall socket and placed another spirit crystal inside.

That section of the wall lit up brightly, revealing murals and information carved within it. The broadcasting orb flew closer to display the details for the audience.

“According to the mural, the Heaven’s Chosen are very rare. The record states that among a population of one billion, there are about sixty Heaven’s Chosen.”

Once this was revealed, the chat erupted, with countless viewers clamoring to comment.

Old Man Who Likes History: [The number… it’s neither high nor low, but still more than I thought it would be.]

Handsome Tall and Rich: [Hmph! Rubbish!]

Sky-Severing Demon: [Sixty Heaven’s Chosen in a population of one billion—about the population of one province. So each province would have around sixty Heaven’s Chosen?]

The Wise King: [They must all be heaven-defying geniuses. If this king could recruit them to my service, that would be ideal. Vagabond! Do you know how to identify them? Is there any record explaining this?]

Seeing how lively the chat was, Wei Chen smiled. The messages came so fast that the older ones were pushed out of the box before he could even read them. This was the result of the U-Phone distribution, most U-Phone owners were trying to make their comments appear on screen.

“I’m sorry, I can’t read your comments at all. The chat box is too fast! But don’t worry. For those who want your messages to stand out and make sure I see them, here’s an option for you!” Wei Chen’s businesslike smile shone brightly.

Then, a list of gift options appeared on the screen:

Tier 1: 1–49 Spirit Stones = Jade Spirit Shard

Tier 2: 50–499 Spirit Stones = Azure Dragon Fan

Tier 3: 500–4,999 Spirit Stones = Crimson Phoenix Seal

Tier 4: 5,000–49,999 Spirit Stones = Nine Dragon Jade Cauldron

And so on…

Wei Chen continued, “These gifts will ensure that your messages stay on the screen and that I’ll definitely see them. I’ll do my best to answer or even follow your instructions! Of course, I’ll prioritize the instructions from those who give heavier gifts first. The higher the gift, the higher the chance I’ll follow it.” Wei Chen said with a warm smile.

But to the viewers, that smile looked no different from the businesslike grin Mo Xingyao, that money-grubber, would show her customers before she fleeced them.

At the Thousand Treasure Hall, Mo Xingyao immediately threw a tantrum the moment she saw this.

“Ahhh! That bastard dared to dupe me! No wonder he gave us seventy percent commission for auctioning those U-Phones! He didn’t even tell me about this scheme! Grrr! That hateful bastard!”

She knew exactly how young masters and elders thought. What they desired most was prestige, a way to flaunt their wealth. And this broadcast was the perfect platform to show off! She could already imagine how many people would pay just to have their comments stick to the screen. This kind of vanity was new and could not be satisfied anywhere else!

Mo Jue, watching beside her, felt sudden anger rise in his heart. This was the first time he had seen his daughter act like this toward a man. It was as if her composed demeanor had never existed. He really wanted to beat that bastard Wei Chen himself.

Mo Xingyao quickly calmed down and decided to test the new feature. “Hmmm, let me try it.”

She used her U-Phone, paid for a gift, and felt a spiritual prompt appear within the device. She chose the lowest tier and confirmed the payment of one Spirit Stone.

Ding!

A chime sounded, and a small jade appeared above the main broadcast screen along with her comment.

Little Wealthy Demon – [Jade Spirit Shard]: [You! You bastard!]

Her comment appeared clearly on the main screen. The feeling of seeing her message stand out was completely different from the normal chat. Her words were at the center of attention!

This feeling… this feeling was quite good!

But just a second later, her message was replaced by higher-tier comments.

The Wise King – [Azure Dragon Fan]: [Tell me, Vagabond, do you know how to identify them? Is there any record about this?]

Handsome Tall and Rich – [Nine Dragon Jade Cauldron]: [Pathetic!]

Seeing the wealthy folks begin to flaunt their riches, Wei Chen smiled wryly but decided to continue.

“Answering The Wise King, yes, there is a way to identify the Heaven’s Chosen.”

The broadcasting orb flew toward another section of the wall, showing the records on the mural as Wei Chen spoke.

“According to the mural, most Heaven’s Chosen, whether male or female will face great calamity during their early lives. Their hardships are far greater than those of normal people. This calamity is actually one of the conditions for awakening as a Heaven’s Chosen.”

The Wise King – [Azure Dragon Fan]: [Awaken? What does that mean?]

Wei Chen smiled and replied to The Wise King’s highlighted comment. “The mural states that all Heaven’s Chosen are born with heaven’s destiny and heavenly luck. They are geniuses of their age. However…” He paused as the camera shifted, and a simple infographic appeared.

It showed a chibi cultivator surrounded by icons representing luck, destiny, and talent, standing on one side of a scale labeled ’Heaven.’ On the other side were icons of bad luck, calamity, and hardship balancing the scale.

“As you can see, heaven always maintains balance. Even if someone possesses heaven-defying luck or talent, heaven will balance it out in its own way. So… what breaks this balance?” Wei Chen said as the infographic changed again.

A chibi man in luxurious robes holding a fan appeared on the screen, followed by his lackeys. This figure represented a young master.
