Ye Tianze's words made the hall fall into silence. After a short while, the elder's voice was heard again.
"No, it's the Nirvana King who betrayed the Law of Primal Chaos. He stole the Law of Primal Chaos. He's the real traitor. We're just protecting the real Law of Primal Chaos!"
The elder's voice was very angry. It was like thunder that resounded in the hall.
Ye Tianze subconsciously covered his ears, but it was useless. When the echoes in the hall stopped, he immediately asked, "Then what is the real Law of Primal Chaos?"
The hall fell into silence again.
After a long time, the elder said in a calm tone, "All things are born in Primal Chaos and return to Primal Chaos. The birth and death of civilizations are orderly. This is the real Law of Primal Chaos. The current Primal Chaos World is like an abscess on the body of living beings. As civilization continues to expand, eventually … the entire sea of Primal Chaos will turn into a pool of stagnant water!"
After Ye Tianze heard this, he felt that it made sense. However, the premise was that civilization was really just an abscess on the body of Primal Chaos.
However, if civilization was an abscess on the body of Primal Chaos, then what was Primal Chaos? Was it also a living being?
He couldn't see through it. With his knowledge, it was impossible to deduce it. Perhaps only existences like the Nirvana King and ancient civilizations like the Ancient Netherworld Clan would consider such a question.
Ye Tianze had always chosen to throw questions that were difficult to understand to the back of his mind, but this time, he still chose to ask.
"Then what is Primal Chaos?" Ye Tianze asked.
The elder fell into silence again. This time, it was a long silence. It was as if he had never thought about this question.
A few hours passed. A few days passed. Ye Tianze waited for an answer, but he didn't get one.
"I don't need an answer to this question. I know my duty and mission," the Ancient Netherworld Clan said. "Primal Chaos is sick. The Ancient Netherworld Clan is treating Primal Chaos. If the skin doesn't exist, where can the hair attach to?"
Ye Tianze almost believed him. Unfortunately, although he was the King of Death, he was first and foremost a living being.
According to the analogy of the elder of the Ancient Netherworld Tribe, he was also the cause of the abscess in Chaos. If that was the case, he had to destroy himself first.
However, at this moment, the elder seemed to have thought of something and said, "The Ancient Netherworld Clan was born outside of the Law of Primal Chaos, but you were born within the Law of Primal Chaos. Do you know why the Nirvana Master stole the Law of Primal Chaos and gave birth to you?"
"Why?" Ye Tianze asked subconsciously.
"Because you were born to destroy the Law of Primal Chaos. This is your destiny. Once you destroy the Law of Primal Chaos, you will disappear. Until the next civilization expansion, you will reappear!"
The elder said.
"That's it? My existence is to destroy civilizations, then self-destruct, destroy civilizations, and self-destruct again? "
Ye Tianze smiled and said, "You really don't know how to persuade people. What benefit can I get from this? What's the point of reincarnating again and again? "
"Benefits?"
"You're a part of primal-chaos, and yet you want benefits? Reincarnation after reincarnation? That's your mission! What's the point of that? Your existence itself is a meaning! "
"I just want to live."
Ye Tianze said, "Only living has meaning. Whether it's the Nirvana Master, all of you, or even the primal-chaos that you speak of, none of you have the right to order me to do anything. Whatever I want to do, it must be done by my own will. Do you understand?"
"You're also a traitor. You've been corrupted. You shouldn't have a will. This is a mistake. It's a mistake for you to have a will."
The elder's voice was a little agitated.
"Why? Are you going to kill me?" Ye Tianze asked.
"I want to kill you, erase your will, and let you return to your origin. However … it's useless. You're the Lord of Death. Even if you're temporarily erased, you'll still exist. I can't kill you."
The elder said.
"You're right. Who can kill death? At most, I'll just have to start all over again, right?" Ye Tianze said with a smile.
"No, the Nirvana Master can erase you."
The elder said, "The Nirvana Master of this generation has already grasped the power to erase you. It's a miracle that you're here. I thought it would take a few more eras for you to appear."
"Based on what you said, the Nirvana Master might not want to erase me," Ye Tianze said, "Even if she has the power to do so."
"Why?" The elder asked curiously, "Do you think she'll be merciful for you? Stop dreaming! "
"I thought I'd only get the answer when I see her, but … I seem to know the answer from you."
Ye Tianze said.
"What answer?"
The elder asked curiously.
"Do you want to know the answer?" Ye Tianze said with a smile. "No, it's impossible. I won't tell you."
The hall quietened down again.
After a long time, the elder spoke again. He didn't force Ye Tianze to give him an answer, but said, "We're allies and we have a common enemy. If you want to live, you have to break the current Chaos Law and return everything to its original state. If you delay any longer, Chaos will be incurable."
"What does that have to do with me?" Ye Tianze asked.
"Of course it has to do with you. When Chaos is destroyed, everything will turn into nothingness. You and I will cease to exist and Chaos will cease to exist. All your efforts will be in vain."
The elder said, "Then can you still live? You won't be able to live."
"Oh."
Ye Tianze pondered for a long time, "If we're going to die, we'll die together. That's pretty good too. In that case, the abscess you mentioned will cease to exist. Isn't that curing Chaos' disease?"
The elder was speechless. If Chaos ceased to exist, what was the point of talking about the disease? Therefore, Ye Tianze was right.
"No, this isn't curing. This goes against the will of our existence!"
The elder said, "Chaos shouldn't be like this."
"Is it because Chaos shouldn't be like this, or do you think it shouldn't be like this? If you ask me, Chaos has never given anyone a mission. Since it gave birth to all things, all things have their value of existence. "
Ye Tianze said, "You think Chaos is everything to you. Perhaps, in the eyes of some living beings, Chaos is just a fish pond. We're all fish in this pond for others to amuse themselves. However, the pond can't be without fish. Without fish, it'll really become stagnant water."
The elder was speechless again.
"You can ask me to help you." Ye Tianze suddenly said, "But I've always been a person who clears debts between brothers. If you want me to help you, you'll have to pay the price."
"What price?" The elder asked.
Permanently exempt! Fee: 0 +
"Give me what I want." Ye Tianze said, "You know that it's not easy for me to cultivate with my current body."
