The Grand Beginning, the world before the Grand Prime, was also a world that the Primordial World knew very little about. They only knew that it was the starting point of the Great Dao and the most prosperous world.
How the Grand Beginning died, how it was destroyed, and how it flourished? The current cultivators didn't even know how to think about it.
This Mirage Dragon claimed to be a creature from the Grand Beginning, but Yang Jian wouldn't believe it just because it said so.
Not to mention the others, just this Mirage Dragon's brain was enough to make Yang Jian think that it couldn't have survived from Absolute Beginning to this day.
However, after asking carefully, he found that what the Mirage Dragon said made sense.
When the Mirage Dragon talked about the origin of the Grand Beginning, Yang Jian immediately believed that the Mirage Dragon was a "living fossil of the Grand Beginning".
The Sea Serpent said, "The first creatures in the Absolute Beginning Era were the True Spirits that had escaped from another world. Those True Spirits seemed to be the experts of that world. Soon, they became stronger and created the Absolute Beginning Era."
This corresponded to how Du Bi crossed the Chaotic Sea back then.
As he continued to get more information from the Mirage Dragon, Yang Jian revealed a corner of a glorious world of cultivation.
However, this corner was enough to shock him.
The Mirage Dragon Clan's true name was actually "Mirage".
The Grand Beginning cultivators added the word "dragon" after "Mirage", which was probably an "honorific" that represented that this clan used to be very powerful.
In the Grand Beginning era, there weren't any Dragons. The closest clan was the extremely powerful Grand Beginning ferocious beasts, the Sky-Devouring Python Clan.
The Mirage Dragons were born from nothingness. They were similar to the Three Sky Goddesses, but there were also some differences.
The True Spirits of the Three Firmament Fairies were born from nothingness. They did not have previous lives, nor did they have previous lives. They were the purest and purest living beings. In contrast, most of the Primordial World's creatures originated from the True Spirits River, which was the "reincarnation" of the True Spirits.
The Mirage Dragon Clan was probably the first clan to appear in the entire tangible world.
They were the first True Spirits born in the Chaotic Sea.
According to the memories of the Mirage Monsters, the Mirage Dragon, the strongest ancestor, didn't know any cultivation techniques, but it was an embodiment of the Dao itself. It was born according to the Dao and lived according to the Dao.
According to the legends of the Primordial Era, the entire Chaos Sea was the clouds that the Ancestor Sea Serpent breathed out. Countless Dao laws and Great Dao were derived from the One True Dao that had evolved into the Ancestor Sea Serpent.
That was in line with the concept of "Dao Gives Birth to One" in the Primordial World.
The Primogenitor Sea Serpent was nowhere to be found. It was said to exist in the gap between the visible world and the invisible Dao World.
Therefore, in the beginning, the Mirage Dragon Clan had a high status and was respected by thousands of cultivators.
On the other hand, the Mirage Dragon Clan had very few members, and they didn't care about the affairs of the world. They liked to live in seclusion in remote places in the tangible world, watching the rise and fall of countless living beings and enjoying it.
The main reason why the Shen Dragon caught by Yang Jian could live to this day without being discovered by cultivators was that it was too 'low-key'. It had been hiding in this place for countless years, and if it sensed a Saint of the Great Path approaching, it would quietly turn itself into a mass of chaotic aura.
Over the years, the Shen Dragon had been hiding.
When the great eras changed several times, it had been quietly observing from the side. At the most dangerous time, it had attracted the attention of a supreme expert, but with the Mirage Dragon's powerful innate divine ability, it had faked its death and escaped.
Just like that, it met Yang Jian.
The Shen Dragon did not have too big an ambition. It just wanted to live like this.
It did not have any earth-shattering ideas. After all, it had seen the rise and fall of several great eras. It had seen countless true spirits destroyed, and countless living beings screamed in pain. It really did not care about anything except death.
The longer it lived, the more afraid it was of death, and the more it felt that it was not easy to live.
Unfortunately, it still died in the hands of Yang Jian.
According to the Shen Dragon, it thought that Yang Jian was not a powerful figure. After all, he did not have the Dao of a Saint of the Great Path, so how could it not be able to deal with him?
However, after a battle …
The Shen Dragon was still regretting it. It looked at Yang Jian, then at the pearl it had worked so hard to condense. It could only choose to silently persuade itself to give in.
The black shuttle flew slowly, and Yang Jian sat opposite the Mirage Dragon. The Mirage Dragon was lying in the corner, looking bored, and sighing weakly.
"Why did I have to meet you?"
How do you know the language of the Primordial Era? "
"Although the place where I hide is a little remote, there are always some living beings that come to me. Sometimes when I'm bored, I'll catch a few weak living beings and chat with them to relieve my boredom." The Shen Dragon rubbed its soft body and said in a deep voice, "Most of them went crazy, and I devoured them in the end."
Yang Jian could not help but fall silent.
Putting the good and evil of the Primordial Era on this Shen Dragon, one would think that it was not a good creature.
But Yang Jian still had some respect for it. After all, it was an ability in itself to survive from the Primordial Era to the present.
Yang Jian said, "Continue telling me about the Primordial Era, especially the supreme experts."
"What's the use of knowing that?" The Shen Dragon sighed. "Let me say this first. Don't send me to my death for nothing. I don't want to have a conflict with those existences who have broken through the Great Dao. In order to avoid attracting their attention, I even gave up the opportunity to become a Saint. "
"Just tell me."
Yang Jian pretended to take the jade gourd from his headband. The Shen Dragon put on a helpless expression.
"Don't waste your effort. I'll just tell you." The Shen Dragon lay there and sighed softly. It continued to tell him what it knew.
The glory of the Primordial Era was built on the foundation of the prosperity of the Great Dao.
Those with aptitude, perseverance, and opportunities could become Saints. There were countless Saints in the Primordial Era. They were probably like the Quasi-Saints of the Primordial World.
According to the Shen Dragon, the difficulty of becoming a Saint was actually related to the restrictions of the Great Dao and the "level" of the world.
If the Primordial Era was considered the "top" back then, then every time the world was destroyed, the level of the world would drop by one level. The Great Dao would wither and the number of Saints would plummet.
Until now, the Primordial Era was almost at the "bottom" level of the Dao. That was why it was extremely difficult to become a Saint. There were only nine Saints.
If the Primordial Era's supreme experts could be placed in the cultivation environment of the Primordial Era or the Primordial Era, they would have a much higher chance of becoming a Saint.
Let's talk about the background of those supreme experts.
What was the realm after the Saint?
Most of the Saints of the Primordial Era didn't know, but they searched day and night and gradually found two directions.
Merging with the Great Dao and the Transcendence Great Dao.
The Saints who chose to merge with the Great Dao would die in meditation. They would become one with the Great Dao and lose their humanity.
The Transcendence Great Dao was a difficult path with no end in sight. Many Saints tried, but they couldn't find the way.
It was at this time that the few Saints who had "escaped" from the Eternal Divine Nation in the Upper Realm began a plan to destroy the Primordial Era.
They began to tempt the Sage to fuse with the Great Dao and waited by the side for an opportunity. When the Sage fused with the Great Dao, they would attack and forcefully imprison the Great Dao that was already alive. They would slowly refine it into their second Great Dao and complete their own transcendence.
That was how the first few supreme experts were born.
These supreme experts began to attack one after another. For a long time, they kept preaching that "merging with the Great Dao" was the final destination of the Saints, and that it was the final contribution to the Primordial Era.
More and more Saints embarked on the path of merging with the Great Dao. The supreme experts took the opportunity to steal the third and fourth Great Dao that they wanted …
Finally, a Saint discovered their plot, and a great battle broke out.
The absolute suppression of power and cultivation level made the supreme experts pay a certain price, and they finally won the battle. However, with the fall of the Saint of the Primordial Era, the Primordial Era Path collapsed, and the entire world was destroyed.
After the battle, there were only nine supreme experts left, and they disappeared without a trace.
Although the Primordial Era was destroyed, the River of True Spirit that ran through the tangible world was not affected too much. Gradually, living beings appeared in the Sea of Chaos again. Countless years later, the Primordial Era gradually rose.
When the Primordial Era entered its peak, the nine supreme experts appeared again and destroyed the world again …
"Among these supreme powerhouses, only two of them broke through the shackles of the Great Path on their own and became supreme powerhouses. The other seven all plundered the Great Path of those Sages that merged with the Great Path and refined it before entering the supreme realm." The Sea Serpent paused. "The strongest ones are the two who broke through the realm on their own."
Yang Jian nodded slowly. Naturally, there would be imperfections in such a shortcut.
He couldn't help but wonder if the Saints of the Primordial Era would …
The Sea Serpent stopped talking. Its beady eyes were full of emotion. It lay there and spat out a small bead. It was the giant Sea Serpent's Pearl.
The Sea Serpent said slowly, "The Saints who can merge with the Dao are actually existences who have reached the end of their cultivation path and have truly stepped into the peak of the Saint realm. The Primordial World has no chance against those supreme experts. Now, you don't even have a Saint who can merge with the Dao, let alone a supreme expert. "
Yang Jian was speechless.
Yang Jian asked again, "Do you know who the nine supreme experts are?"
"I don't know. I don't dare to know," the Sea Serpent said. "If I knew so much, how could I have lived until today? There are some things that my mystical abilities can't detect. I definitely won't ask about it. "
He did not know if this fellow was really stupid or if it was smart.
Yang Jian nodded and pondered for a while. He asked a more crucial question, "If the Primordial Era was destroyed in the battle, why did they destroy the Primordial Era, the Primordial Era, and the Primordial Era?"
"They're plundering, right?" The Sea Serpent muttered. "I don't dare to ask about these things. I only know that these guys probably want endless power. The process of living beings being destroyed can produce this power. I've only seen it once from afar. I don't know what they're going to do with it. "
Yang Jian's fingers trembled.
"Is this true?"
"I don't know. I didn't say anything." The Sea Serpent lowered its head, its ears drooping.
Yang Jian, on the other hand, took a deep breath, and his face darkened.
"I think I understand now."
The Sea Serpent was puzzled. "Understand what? What can a little cultivator from the Primordial Era like you understand? "
Yang Jian said, "They're probably trying to revive Eternal Divine Nation."
The Sea Serpent's eyes widened in surprise.
