Yan Jin stood transfixed, his eyes wide as he witnessed the images conjured by Eli. The cosmic world shifted around them, disying the vibrant beauty of the Andromeda gxy, home to the Heretical Gods, a race once prosperous and thriving.


    Eli''s voice was heavy with both nostalgia and sorrow as he recounted his story. "We were powerful—generals, schrs, warriors, all blessed with the Heretical God Frame. It allowed us to wield multiple bloodlines and possess immense soul power. The universe feared us because of how in tune we were with the primal energies of creation."


    Yan Jin marveled at the vivid scene of a gxy so full of life and energy. But then, as Eli swiped his hand once more, the image twisted and darkened. The gxy, once teeming with life, was now poisoned and deste, the bright colors fading into a sickly green.


    "When I was born," Eli continued, "I was marked with these eyes—the Heavenly Eyes. They were said to be the most powerful gift, the number one frame in existence. A prophecy foretold that the one who possessed these eyes would one day rule the universe."


    Eli''s glowing blue eyes flickered as he looked toward Yan Jin, a bitter smile tugging at the corner of his lips. "But the universe, ever in search of bnce, did not allow such power to exist freely. When my Heavenly Eyes awakened, they became a beacon. The heavens despise anything that threatens their order, and these eyes… they were seen as a threat."


    Yan Jin felt a chill run down his spine as the scene shifted again, this time showing Eli''s awakening ceremony. A young Eli stood in the center of a grand hall, his eyes shining brightly, the power of the Heavenly Eyes manifesting for the first time. But instead of celebration, panic and fear consumed those around him.


    "My parents tried to hide it, but there was no concealing something like this. The prophecy had spread far and wide, and soon, the other races formed an alliance. They came to destroy us—everyst one."


    The image changed once more, this time showing the massive armada of ships and armies descending upon Andromeda. The serene gxy was suddenly engulfed in mes, the once lushs reduced to ashes. Yan Jin watched as the Heretical Gods, despite their strength, were overwhelmed by sheer numbers.


    "The alliance of races swept through ournds,mitting genocide. They left no one behind—no woman, no child, not even our youngest. The bright, thriving gxy became a death zone, poisoned by the hatred and fear of the prophecy."


    Yan Jin''s heart clenched as he saw the carnage unfold, the destruction of an entire race because of one prophecy. The massacre was relentless, and even though the Heretical Gods fought with unmatched power, they were ultimately overwhelmed.


    "I survived only because of my mother''s sacrifice," Eli said, his voice barely above a whisper now. "She sent me beyond the ck hole, into the abyss where the corrupted beings thrive. Alone in that dark, twisted ce, I fought like a madman for years. I wed my way through the darkness, gaining power, but losing everything else."


    Yan Jin felt a pang of understanding. He could sense the immense pain behind Eli''s words. Thest of a mighty race, Eli had fought against not only the corrupted beings but also the weight of an entire universe''s hatred. The scenes now showed Eli''s rampage, the destruction he brought upon countless gxies, leaving a trail of devastation in his wake.


    "I unleashed a massacre of my own, fueled by the corruption and my thirst for revenge," Eli admitted, his blue eyes gleaming with a dangerous light. "I wiped out many gxies, ughtering those who had taken everything from me. But in the end, I was just one person. One person, no matter how powerful, cannot stand against the entire universe."


    The cosmic space around them dimmed, and the images faded, leaving the two standing alone on the barren, moon-like surface. Yan Jin''s mind raced as he tried toprehend the weight of Eli''s story, the sheer magnitude of what had been revealed to him.


    "You failed?" Yan Jin asked, a mixture of awe and sorrow in his voice.


    Eli''s cosmic presence seemed to waver as he spoke, the vast power and sadness intertwined in his expression. "Yes, I failed. I carried the hope to revive my race, but despite my search, I found nothing. I was weakened, pursued by enemies, and at the end of my life, I needed a way out."


    He continued, his voice heavy with regret, "It was then that the cursed eyes showed me a vision of a ve from my race who managed to give birth to a lineage—a mutated one, not identical but closely rted. It was your Hydra bloodline."


    Yan Jin''s eyes widened in realization. "My Hydra bloodline?"


    "Exactly," Eli confirmed. "I collected rare bloodline essences and stored them in a jade container, leaving the Heavenly Eyes and a portion of my soul behind. I hoped that one day, a worthy sessor woulde along to carry my mantle." Experience new stories on m v|l e''-NovelBin


    Eli''s eyes flickered with a mixture of pride and sorrow. "On the day of your awakening, that fool of an uncle of yours sacrificed his life to hinder the process of atavism. Your Nine Hydra should have evolved into a Nine-Totem Heretical God, but the process was neverpleted."


    Yan Jin took in the information, trying to process the implications. "So, what now? What do you want me to do?"


    Eli''s gaze was intense, the weight of his words pressing down on Yan Jin. "The question is, are you ready to ept your destiny and be thest Heretical God?"


    Yan Jin hesitated, feeling the weight of the universe pressing upon him. "I understand your reaction when I stumbled upon the Heretical God Eye technique. Although the tragedy of your race is unfair, I will not be a genocidal maniac."


    Eli shook his head, a sad smile on his lips. "You don''t understand. I wasn''t nning for this, but since the power has chosen you, you are destined to sh with the universe. The world will not ept you. You have the destiny of a ruler, and the path of a tyrant. The universe, the heavens—they will not let you be."


    The cosmic surroundings began to flicker and distort as Eli''s form seemed to waver. "This portion of my soul has held on for so long, but it is beginning to dissipate. If you want the power to change your destiny, this is your only chance."


    Eli extended his hand, a shimmering array of cosmic energy forming around it. "I have selected the best bloodlines you could find in the universe and created a perfect bnce for your progression. The process of atavism will continue, and you will gain the strength needed to challenge your fate."


    Yan Jin looked at Eli, his heart racing. "Is your real body still alive? Out there in the universe?"


    Eli''s eyes, now a brilliant blue, glowed with a mixture of hope and resignation. "I don''t know. That is your duty to find out. You are smarter and stronger than I ever was. I would love to see you challenge the heavens and prove that thest Heretical God can indeed defy fate."


    As Eli''s form began to fade and the cosmic surroundings dissolved into a blur, Yan Jin felt the seal on his body cracking, the sound of cogs turning in perfect harmony reverberating through his very soul. The ancient restraints upon his bloodline shattered, copsing in on themselves in a violent implosion. His body—his very essence—began to unravel as the suppressed power within surged outward.


    In a blinding sh, everything that defined him—his body, his senses—was obliterated, leaving only his soul, the celestial blue glow of his Heavenly Eyes, his cultivation altar, and the nine primordial bloodlines that hadin dormant for so long.


    The transformation surged forward.
