The second step of Primordial Chaos was finally achieved.
To Li Yu, this was already a huge leap, a fundamental transformation.
All along, Li Yu's cultivation path had been to advance the three treasures of Essence, Energy, and Spirit. At this level, Essence and Energy had already reached the end. He was only one step away from truly becoming the master of Primordial Chaos, the source of everything.
"But, the journey is one hundred, half ninety. The closer to the end, the more difficult it is to advance. "
This final step, "Deification of Primordial Chaos", was to transform one's consciousness into the state of Primordial Chaos.
What was the state of Primordial Chaos?
There was no order or law, no matter or energy, everything returned to nothingness.
If one's consciousness became a state of Primordial Chaos, then … where would one's consciousness be? Where would one's memories be? Where would one's' self 'be?
This was the biggest problem!
If one's consciousness and memories were gone, then … one's' self 'would naturally cease to exist.
"This third step of Primordial Chaos is the biggest challenge!"
A sword rises from the heart lake, slashing others as well as oneself! This was easy to say, but difficult to do.
If one's consciousness and memories were all destroyed with a single slash of the sword, even one's self would cease to exist, then what was the point?
"Let's take it one step at a time!"
Li Yu let out a long sigh, shook his head, and took a step forward, arriving at the 'real world' outside of the 'Primordial Chaos World'.
"I was born here."
Looking up at this' scientific 'real world without the slightest bit of Spirit Qi, Li Yu suddenly realized that this' real world 'space was actually the very center of the Pearl of Origin.
The entire world of the Pearl of Origin was like an egg. The real world was the yolk, the Primordial Chaos World was the white.
"Heaven and Earth were primordial like chicken eggs. Pan Gu was born within. Eighteen thousand years old. Heaven and Earth were created. Clear Yang as Heaven. Turbid Yin as Earth … "
Li Yu recalled this ancient text, deep in thought.
This World of Origin in front of him was very similar to the situation described in this ancient text!
More importantly, after becoming the master of the Origin Pearl, Li Yu had discovered that the world within the Origin Pearl had a very complicated relationship with him.
It didn't seem like "Li Yu gave birth to this world" at all. Instead, it was more like "this world was born because of Li Yu".
"Perhaps … I am Pangu?"
Pangu was born from the chaos, so the title of Son of Chaos was very appropriate.
When Zhenyuanzi and the other two saw Li Yu, they asked, "Are you Pangu?"
At this moment, Li Yu suddenly realized that the possibility of him being Pangu was not small.
"Perhaps … countless years ago, I, Pan Gu, was born in the Chaos of the Origin bead. Then, I created the world in the Origin bead."
Li Yu frowned and shook his head again. "If I were Pan Gu, it would be fine if I created the primeval world, but why did I create a 'reality'? Did Pan Gu know everything about the real world? "
In the 'reality', there were also legends of Pan Gu creating the heavens, Nuwa creating man, the Three Pure Jade Emperors, and so on. Li Yu didn't believe that the two had nothing to do with each other.
But … where did the 'reality' in the Origin Pearl come from? Who had created it?
Even though he controlled the Origin Pearl, Li Yu still couldn't find any information in this regard.
With all the order and rules in the Origin Pearl, Li Yu had long been able to reverse time and trace the past at will. But … he couldn't trace the origin of this world.
"It seems that the Origin Pearl is more complicated than I thought."
The Origin Pearl attracted the group of people from the Celestial Emperor of Taixuan to fight endlessly. It definitely contained secrets that Li Yu didn't know.
"Is the Origin Pearl very useful? It seems … I've seen another Origin Pearl before! "
Li Yu recalled that he'd been possessed by the Celestial Emperor of Taixuan. After killing one of his avatars, the Taixuan Heaven and Earth had self-destructed the graveyard world. As a result, Li Yu had been swept into the chaotic turbulence and landed in a destroyed world of the Origin Pearl.
In the world of the Pearl of Origin, Li Yu also saw a group of silver-armored Divine Generals being executed.
"Just what secrets does the Origin Pearl contain?"
Li Yu looked up at the void beyond. The Eye of Primal Chaos pierced through spacetime and saw the world of the Origin Pearl that he'd once visited.
It was still in ruins.
However … the moment Li Yu's gaze touched this world, touched the Pearl of Origin, the Pearl of Origin seemed to awaken!
Rumble!
An invisible vibration was clearly transmitted to Li Yu's senses even though they were separated by endless time and space.
Joy! Adoration! Resentment! Feeling aggrieved … When the tremors came, Li Yu could clearly sense all sorts of emotions within them.
"Eh? Could it be that the Pearl of Origin is still alive? "
Li Yu was alarmed. He hurriedly shot through space, traversing space-time to land in the dilapidated world inside the Origin Pearl.
What greeted him was still a shattered world, deathly still and eerie, devoid of any signs of life.
Silver-armored warriors had been impaled by spears and stood upright on the ground. Apart from that, there was only a desolate and broken world.
"Are you … mine as well?"
The Origin Pearl was actually emitting fluctuations of emotion, which greatly shocked Li Yu.
A single Pearl of Origin was a vast, boundless world. A world … with emotions and consciousness … that was a little too strange.
Although it wasn't that Li Yu hadn't seen such things before, he really didn't like them.
"I'd like to see what's going on!"
Standing in the middle of the dilapidated world, Li Yu's body burst forth with an endless radiance. Chaos Qi billowed out and swept out, covering the entire world.
Bzzz …
When the Primal Chaos Qi that Li Yu released enveloped the entire world, the world began to tremble slightly. In just a moment, the dilapidated world was already under Li Yu's control.
"This really is an Origin Pearl, and it's called … Firmament?"
Now that he had control of the Origin Pearl, Li Yu learned of its origins. It was Firmament, one of the Nine Skies.
There were a total of nine Origin Pearls. The one in Li Yu's Great Desolate World was called Great Sky. The one in the ruined world was called "Firmament".
"Why … doesn't it have any consciousness?"
Li Yu had clearly sensed all sorts of emotions earlier, but after taking control of Firmament, he couldn't sense any consciousness at all.
This Origin Bead called 'Firmament' was merely a world, an artifact without any sentience.
"Those emotions, where did they come from? Moreover, how was this world destroyed? What is the background of those silver-armored generals that were executed? "
Li Yu took in a deep breath and activated the [Time Reversal] ability, preparing to search for the past of the world of 'Heaven'.
And then … Li Yu was stunned by what he saw!
