Chapter 1385 - Master (2)
"To sum things up, we must hide from the Heavens here while we look for allies in other universes?" Shen Huang concluded what Su Ping said.
Su Ping nodded. "Yes. It's the only way."
Everybody was speechless. One of them was angry for a moment, but they soon let it go.
They had to admit it was the only way out.
They would have died had they stayed in the old universe.
!!
There was a slim chance to survive if they escaped from that universe.
Su Ping didn't say anything to reassure the now silent Celestials, as there were certain things that they had to endure on their own. When compared to the survivors, the soldiers who had been left in bases and defense lines to buy them time needed much more care.
"You may cultivate in my store until we find another universe. We'll keep searching and roaming during this period of time," said Su Ping.
Everybody was silent. They were at the moment like survivors on Noah's Ark. They were indeed alive, but they had no clue as to what the future held for them.
With everything coming to that point, they could only wing it.
Shen Huang glanced at everybody and said solemnly, "Don't be frustrated; there's always a way. Many sacrificed their lives for our sake."
Everyone's faces changed and their negative emotions were held back upon hearing the latter. It would be humiliating to complain, considering all the people who died to distract the aliens. They would be too ashamed to face those who stayed.
"That's right; the only way is to become strong. We must become stronger. Don't forget that we must avenge them!" Chi Huo clenched his fists.
The other Celestials also became sharp and determined. Their hatred was such that they couldn't give up just like that.
All of them had gone through countless life-and-death situations during their time cultivating. They sobered up and pulled themselves together.
"Anna, come here," Su Ping said to Joanna who had been standing quietly.
Joanna walked over. Although Su Ping hadn't explained anything, she knew what had happened based on what they said and her conjectures.

"When you have time, teach them; you'll be their temporary master," Su Ping said to Joanna.
Noticing his solemn expression, she knew that it was a sincere request, wanting to help them grow stronger.
"No problem." Joanna nodded.
Everybody was dumbfounded. They looked at the blond girl, whose beautiful face was like none they had seen before. However, being Celestials, they didn't really fall for her. During all the years being part of the alliance, they had been aware that Su Ping's store was being supervised by a Celestial expert, who was none other than the blond girl.
However, Su Ping asked her to be our teacher?
She's just another Celestial. This is too condescending!
Su Ping briefly explained, sensing the anger and pride in the eyes of some Celestials, "If you have anything that you don't understand, you may ask Anna for guidance. She's a god; there's a lot that she can teach you." He gave them the benefit of the doubt; after all, they had fought the Heavens together. They had argued before, but it was all in the past.
Su Ping became more tolerant since they were comrades who had been through life and death together, and since they were the last pillars of humanity.
"A god?"
Everybody's eyes glittered. They had already noticed something; the girl carried an intense divine aura. Adding her unique face and appearance, she looked like an unsullied angel walking on earth.
"Can we practice with her?" asked a Celestial State cultivator. Even though Su Ping had said it that way, he was curious and not really convinced.
"Sure," Joanna replied casually, before Su Ping could say anything.
"If you want to practice, just go to the test room," said Su Ping to Joanna. "Go easy on them."
"I know," said Joanna, keeping her casual tone.
Shen Huang, Chi Huo and the others were surprised. They knew how strong Su Ping was. If Su Ping was so confident in his store clerk, was she really a lot stronger than them?
With Su Ping as an example, they no longer dared to judge others by their cultivation.
After all, they were Celestials, and were actually suppressed by Su Ping, who was merely an Ascendant.
Since she had their same level, the girl could possess a strength far beyond theirs.
"Let's tally the people we brought first," Shen Huang withdrew his gaze and said, "While looking for other universes, we must be responsible for sustaining them. Unfortunately, the food I prepared was stored in space warehouses; I didn't have enough time to relocate it."
"Naturally, lives are more important," said Xu Kong, "I'll be responsible for sustaining the people in my universe. I just did a rough calculation. I should be able to endure a thousand years."
"Me too. If nothing else happens, it shouldn't be a problem to last a thousand years," said another Celestial.
Given their rushed escape, they didn't even have the time to fill up their small universes.
They did pack their treasuries in their small universes when they traveled to relocate with the alliance in the Golden Star Zone. The cultivation resources weren't much, but they could get by for a while.

"I'll probably be able to endure for eight hundred years."
"Me too. I'll sustain them even if I have to burn my soul. Nobody will starve," said another Celestial.
Everyone reported their respective populations settled in their small universes.
There were a lot of people, but it was just a small proportion of the original population of their whole universe.
"I wonder what's going on back home." One of the Celestials turned back, but their universe was already nowhere to be seen. It was probably being ravaged at the moment.
The atmosphere instantly became heavy.
Su Ping said coldly, "Thinking about it is useless at the moment; better spend the time on cultivating and getting stronger. Condense your Dao Hearts. Their sacrifices will be worth it once we become strong enough to march back."
Everybody became solemn. They knew that Su Ping was right; they didn't have the time to be pessimistic.
"Brother Su, please teach me how to become a universe dominator," said Chi Huo immediately.
Su Ping glanced at him and said, "As I told you, you have to find your Dao Hearts in order to become a universe dominator. If you can't, I can give you one, but you would be forever bound to it, never to find your own road."
"By condensing a Dao Heart, we'll become universe dominators, right?" asked a Celestial in surprise. "If you can give us a Dao Heart, then you…"
The others also looked at Su Ping in astonishment. Some seemed enlightened.
Su Ping shook his head. "I'm not a universe dominator. Like I said, once you accept this Dao Heart, you will lose the opportunity of finding one of your own."
Everybody felt dazed. They understood what Su Ping said; he was planning to condense a Dao Heart of his own.
"So, you have other people's Dao Hearts?" Shen Huang asked, somehow shocked, "Doesn't it mean you can become a universe dominator at any time?"
"That's right." Su Ping nodded.
Everybody looked at Su Ping speechlessly. They didn't expect that such a young man would be that terrifying, to actually hold back the temptation of becoming a universe dominator.
They would have done it already, regardless of any consequence.
The universe dominator realm was the ultimate level they had been pursuing. However, according to Su Ping, there were higher levels above.
"If Mr. Su is willing to give me one, I will accept it," said a Celestial expert.
"That's right. Me too."
"I know that my potential is limited. I don't think I'll ever rise beyond the universe dominator state," said another Celestial.
They were all intrigued after learning that Su Ping could give them a Dao Heart, which would help them become universe dominators.
Su Ping frowned a bit. He obviously underestimated their desire to advance to what they knew as the ultimate state and Dao.
"All right." Su Ping accepted their request, not being petty in the slightest. The three unparalleled Dao Hearts offered by the Golden Crow ancestor were useless to him, but he could give them away. They were indeed extraordinary gifts in the eyes of Celestials with limited potential.
