"Reconstructing a true body … As expected, this Evil God is unwilling to be left out."
Tsing Hui looked at the statue in his hand, a solemn look in his eyes.
"Tsing Hui, although this Evil God hasn't shown any malice at the moment, my advice to you is … it's best that we don't interfere in the affairs of the Evil Gods. It's best that we hand this Evil God over to the Lord of Chaos. Even if it's not convenient for you to hand it over, you might as well use someone else to do it. With your current status, you should have many trustworthy subordinates working for you."
The Heavenly Lord of Treasure Snatching reiterated, his words full of wariness toward the statue.
"Hand it over, huh …"
"The power of Evil Gods is beyond your imagination … even the saints of the immortal dao civilization at its peak had to rely on their indestructibility to barely contend against them, but as our world was destroyed and our laws ceased to exist, the myth of being immortal and indestructible was utterly shattered. Defeat was the only outcome we faced … especially since this Evil God had once slain the six divine beast ancestors beneath the Lord of Chaos, and even barged into the Lord of Chaos' universe and inflicted considerable damage upon him. Clearly, he was a peak champion amongst Evil Gods, and if we were to use the six tiers of Chaos to categorize him, he would definitely not be at the fourth tier, but most likely at the fifth tier, second only to the three peerless existences — the Lord of Chaos, the Lord of Time, and the Lord of Gods. The depth and methods that such Evil Gods possess … are too frightening …"
"Naturally, we'd run as far as we can from an Evil God at its peak, but as you can see now, Heavenly Lord, this Evil God is clearly an arrow at the end of its flight. If we can dig out the benefits it has …"
Tsing Hui paused, seeming to think of something. "Heavenly Lord, you said that this Evil God had slain the six divine beast ancestors under the Lord of Chaos …"
"That's right. At the time, they probably wanted to intercept the Lord of Chaos' plan of gathering the power of the twelve divine beasts to trace the phantom of the Eternal Plate, so that they could replace the twelve divine beasts and glimpse the ultimate meaning of eternity."
"If these Evil Gods wanted to replace the twelve divine beasts … in other words, they must have a huge amount of law fragments in their hands?!"
Tsing Hui's eyes couldn't help but light up at the thought.
The Heavenly Lord of Myriad Treasures seemed to have guessed something as he frowned. "Nomological fragments, you are thinking of …"
Tsing Hui nodded heavily. If he could really obtain the remaining law fragments from these evil gods in one go …
With the twelve divine beasts' laws complete, he would soon be able to create the Pangu True Body and have the hope of becoming a true Chaos creature.
Once he became a true chaos creature, he would be able to resonate with the immortal dao civilization and receive its power. When that happened …
If he were to face the Master of Chaos, the Master of Time, and the Master of Gods, he might not necessarily be powerless against them.
"Trading with the Evil God … this …"
"Dangerous?"
Tsing Hui knew what the Lord of Myriad Treasures wanted to say.
The Heavenly Lord of Myriad Treasures was the only Great Divine Ability expert of the immortal dao civilization. The responsibility of the entire immortal dao civilization's inheritance was all on his shoulders, which made him prioritize safety and stability whenever he faced any situation. Over time, he had already lost the spirit to take risks and struggle.
However, he was able to understand this.
But …
He, Tsing Hui, was different.
"Trading with the Evil God might indeed be dangerous, but this evil god is clearly an arrow at the end of its flight. Even if he recovers slightly, he probably won't be able to reach his peak state. On the contrary, as long as I can obtain enough law fragments, I can immediately trace back to the Origin Plate and have the foundation to break through to the fourth level of the chaos realm and transform into a Chaos creature. If I can become a true Chaos creature before him, even if the trade is really dangerous, I will be able to deal with it calmly.
"It's not that easy to become a Chaos creature."
The Heavenly Lord of Myriad Treasures said.
Tsing Hui glanced at the Heavenly Lord of Myriad Treasures. The Heavenly Lord of Myriad Treasures didn't know that he had almost eighty to ninety percent of the creation jade and thought it was just a small piece. In fact, he, who had almost a complete creation jade, was almost equivalent to the chosen one of the immortal dao civilization. He could be said to have gathered all of the immortal dao civilization's fortune on him. With the immortal dao civilization's foundation so strong that even the Master of Chaos, the Master of Time, and the Master of Gods coveted it, he didn't think that the fourth level of chaos could stop him and stop him from advancing.
"I want to give it a try."
Tsing Hui said seriously, "Moreover, there's an old saying in the Source World: the enemy of my enemy is my friend. This evil god's true body is clearly hostile to the Master of Chaos. We fear him because we don't have the right to speak to him as an equal. If I can really grow and reach the same level as him, I might be able to borrow their power to overthrow the Master of Chaos."
"Whether it's these evil gods or the Master of Chaos, they are all our enemies. Their true goal is to obtain information about the ultimate eternity in our immortal dao civilization. Even if you maintain an excellent cooperation with this evil god, they won't hesitate to turn against you when faced with the temptation of the ultimate eternity. They won't even hesitate to ally with the Master of Chaos when the time comes."
"I understand, but I believe that as long as I don't reveal the secrets of eternity in me, the Master of Chaos, the Master of Gods, and the Master of Time will be their greatest enemies."
Qing Xu paused slightly when he reached there. Another thought flashed through his head, "Moreover … it's just like you said. Their ultimate goal is the secrets of eternity. In other words, even if they know there's something wrong with me or even that they have ill intentions, they might not harm me in order to obtain the secrets of eternity from me. Instead, they might even assist me secretly so that I can reach the peak more smoothly."
"You're pulling chestnuts out of the fire …"
"That's the worst outcome. At least for now, my path forward is still clear."
The Lord of Myriad Treasures fell silent.
After a while, he slowly said, "There's something I haven't mentioned to you. I might not be the only great master in our immortal dao civilization …"
"You're not the only one?"
Tsing Hui was a little surprised. "There's another great master."
"Yes, that great master should be the Qingping sword spirit," the Lord of Myriad Treasures said slowly.
"I've heard of a rumor that when our civilization was on the brink of collapse, the great ancestor of all living beings, Saint Wa, borrowed the core power of our civilization and ignited her own supreme saint power to throw the Qingping Sword, born from chaos and forged from near-eternal materials, into the river of time. She attempted to return the sword's spirit to the primordial era and prevent our civilization from facing this unprecedented calamity …" Saint Wa continued slowly. "That's right, Saint Wa.
"The river of time?"
"That's right, the River of Time … Only our Immortal Dao Civilization can clearly manifest and see the River of Time, because this River of Time is the path that the great Primordial Plate once walked, and the traces left behind on the path … belong to … eternity."
There was a hint of pride in the Lord of Myriad Treasures' expression when he said this, but there was even more sadness.
He was proud that their immortal dao civilization possessed a great legacy.
He was sad that his descendants didn't fight for it, and couldn't even protect the great Primordial Plate's legacy.
Tsing Hui was silent for a moment before he spoke again. "If I'm not mistaken, the future clearly hasn't changed."
The Lord of Myriad Treasures nodded. "The future hasn't changed. At the same time, as the immortal dao civilization crumbled, the river of time vanished as well. However, it's not without a trace, because the Qingping Sword Spirit is currently submerged in the river of time. Moreover, we can intermittently receive some information from the Qingping Sword Spirit, but most of it is incomplete and can't be analyzed. Perhaps the method of transmission is beyond our understanding. However, a few thousand years ago, not long after you first came to our Jade Dragon Soaring Through the Heavens … we suddenly received a relatively clear image … an image related to you …" The Lord of Myriad Treasures nodded.
"An image related to me?"
Tsing Hui blinked.
The Lord of Myriad Treasures nodded and waved his hand, gathering countless streaks of laws in his hand.
These streams of laws appeared to be the most ordinary streams of laws. Moreover, each of these streams of laws was extremely weak, so weak that even a Domain level cultivator would not be able to use them to comprehend and cultivate.
However, it was precisely because of this weakness that they could exist in any environment.
It was just like spatial geometry, calculus, linear algebra, and other relatively advanced knowledge. Many people might not be able to understand them, but if it was simple numbers from one to nine, even a child who had just learned to speak would be able to understand.
"The information contained in these streaks of laws has been transmitted for a hundred thousand years. We've always treated them as meaningless power of laws. It wasn't until ten thousand years ago that we barely grasped an analysis method that we guessed that this was a type of information that a certain existence wanted to transmit to us. It was a type of information that we couldn't understand, and according to our further conjecture, we identified it as the Qingping sword spirit … In the past, the information was disorderly, until this image appeared …"
As the Lord of Myriad Treasures spoke, the image formed completely from the streaks of laws finally took shape. It was a unique perspective.
It was like …
It was like a person looking at the scene outside the window of a speeding train. The image was blurry and distorted, but one could still vaguely tell that it was a great being. He was surrounded by faint streaks of light that contained countless information. Outside the streaks of light, dozens of great figures seemed to be pouncing on the figure surrounded by the streaks of light at the fastest speed possible …
It was like …
A group of heroes vying for supremacy.
Even though the images were rather blurry, Qing Xu managed to determine the identities of the several dozen great existences as soon as he saw them.
Evil God!
Especially the three at the center of the dozens of great beings …
They were the Lord of Chaos, the Lord of Time, and the Lord of Gods.
There was no need to describe them in detail. Tsing Hui knew that they were the three supreme existences.
As for the figure surrounded by the streaks of light …
It was himself!
