"Am I... am I hallucinating?"
"Am I dreaming? What's going on?"
"She... she can't just be a Venerable, can she? This power isn't something a Venerable should possess.
She's truly shattered the heavens, capable of rivaling the Great Sun.
Is this the legendary realm of immortals and gods!"
"For such an existence to cultivate evil arts, it's simply laughable, utterly ridiculous. With a slight display of her innate divine abilities, she's far more potent than any evil art. It feels like if she hadn't stopped absorbing the Great Sun's essence, she could have caused world destruction. She's no longer human, perhaps, not even legendary immortals and gods have few who can match her."
"Is the panda bloodline really this terrifying?"
"If her birth parents were still alive, they'd probably be regretting everything, how terrifying!"
"Hahahaha, indeed, the evolutionary path of my beastmen is the greatest, only then can we truly step into the realm of immortals and gods. Those human gene Venerables combined probably wouldn't be enough to be swatted to death."
"From now on, if anyone dares to speak ill of Cangyun, I'll kill you first. Do you know how much energy the sun lost in that short moment? At least ten thousand years of lifespan. If this happens a few more times, I fear the sun will become a red giant in no time, and then we'll either have to migrate or perish!"
"Everyone, quickly look at the accounts that spread the initial rumors. They're probably terrified to death, frantically deleting posts and apologizing. The mastermind behind it has also been revealed: it's the other council members and the Speaker of the Beastmen Alliance Council. They are indeed running dogs of those gene humans and psionic humans, damn them."
"For the plight of us beastmen, they should bear at least sixty percent of the responsibility, damn them!"
"More than sixty percent, eighty percent wouldn't be an exaggeration!"
"But, what did Great Venerable Cangyun mean by her bloodline's innate curse, and also by blessing them with the Five Decays of Heaven and Man? Why bless them?"
"I don't quite understand, but it's probably not a good thing!"
"I know. The Five Decays of Heaven and Man refers to what mythical celestials experience when they are near death: soiled garments, wilting crowns, sweat from the armpits, foul body odor, and displeasure in their seat. Once the Five Decays of Heaven and Man descend, even legendary celestials face death. So, this should be a curse upon those masterminds, cursing them to death."
"It doesn't sound that terrifying, does it? If I don't shower for a few days, I'll exhibit several of those symptoms. Also, wilting crowns must mean hair loss, oh my god, I feel like I'm dying!"
"I don't know, but it sounds awesome!"
"Great Venerable Cangyun is so powerful, why don't we just start impeachment proceedings? Let's impeach the Speaker and let Great Venerable Cangyun take over. Even if she can't secure many benefits for us, at least we won't be bullied. After all, her strength is undeniable!"
"No rush. Don't you guys forget, the Speaker is also one of the masterminds. If Great Venerable Cangyun wasn't bluffing, then the other party should already be cursed. They won't live for many more days. When they die, the Speaker will have to be re-elected anyway."
...
Compared to the inhabitants of the beastmen planet, who were mostly overjoyed at the emergence of such a terrifying powerhouse among them after their initial fear and surprise.
The other planets were left only with fear.
They all felt that the heavens were about to change.
The reason was simple: before, they had gleefully bullied the beastmen, exploiting and enslaving them through various means. Now that a powerful being capable of suppressing all dissent had emerged among the beastmen, could they not think of resistance or even revenge? This was clearly impossible.
And once the beastmen thought of resistance and revenge.
What good would come to them?
Even if they could withstand it, they would undoubtedly suffer heavy losses.
For a time, the Emperor Star and the Psionic Planet were in a frenzy, hastily sending people to investigate the truth of the matter while initiating global martial law, constantly preparing for any contingencies.
However, they were, in fact, a bit overly tense.
In the short term, Ding Yun had no intention of starting a planetary war. Her goal had never changed from the beginning: to first gain complete control of the beastmen planet before discussing other matters.
She was currently just a governor. Why would she start a planetary war? She couldn't fight alone.
Crushing the Emperor Star.
How many casualties would that cause!
However, while the Emperor Star and the Psionic Planet were tense on their own, no one actually wanted to provoke them. The Beastmen Alliance Council, on the other hand, was truly terrified. They were then hit with Ding Yun's first blessing in this world before they could even escape.
The Yin-Yang Panda was a divine beast bloodline.
The Yin-Yang Law was the fundamental law of the world.
It was incredibly easy to use this to curse others, let alone those with whom she had karmic ties.
So, less than half a minute after Ding Yun announced their "blessing" of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man through the livestream, those masterminds, including the Speaker himself, all began to exhibit symptoms of the Five Decays of Heaven and Man in their terrified state.
Of course, these were just superficial signs.
The Five Decays of Heaven and Man were all external manifestations; the true core lay in the dissipation of their vitality and the rapid weakening of their lifespan at a rate of one year per minute.
Before long, the Speaker and council members, who had a lifespan of roughly three to five hundred years due to various elixirs and their own cultivation, began to show signs of aging. Wrinkles appeared on their faces, their hair turned gray and fell out, and their entire bodies, including their internal organs, were rapidly decaying.
Those with the weakest cultivation and the oldest age.
Were the first to die from old age.
The top doctors on the beastmen planet, using the best medical equipment, were completely helpless. Only by injecting elixirs with life force or life-extending effects could they temporarily alleviate the speed of aging, but this was merely a temporary fix.
Furthermore, both elixirs with life force and those with life-extending effects were extremely expensive.
Their quantities were also very limited.
It was impossible to administer injections to them every ten minutes to temporarily prolong their lives in this way.
However, they were, after all, the most powerful individuals on the beastmen planet. While they didn't have an abundance of these two types of elixirs, they could mobilize a hundred or so tubes, which was enough to temporarily extend their lives and quickly contact the Emperor Star for help.
Out of curiosity and a desire to understand Ding Yun's peculiar abilities, the Emperor Star made no demands this time and arrived very quickly using a spatial teleportation gate.
They brought everyone to the Emperor Star to receive treatment.
After all, no matter how advanced the medical equipment on the beastmen planet was, it was only considered ordinary on the Emperor Star. To treat them in time, they had to be brought to the Emperor Star for treatment.
However, this did not change the outcome.
While the Emperor Star did discover more issues that the beastmen planet had missed, and even vaguely touched upon the traces of the curse, that was all.
Apart from using elixirs to help prolong their lives.
They still had no other solution.
