Where was the Great Desolate Realm?
How could he enter it?
Since ancient times, not even the half-ancestor knew about it. It was a place only the ancestor gods knew. It was filled with endless secrets.
Xiao Chen had been thinking about this. When Keke's father passed away, he left a spiritual imprint saying that death was not the end and the battle had just begun. What did this mean?
And the threat from the otherworldly ancestor gods. They were so powerful, so where was the so-called otherworldly realm? It was once suspected to be the Great Desolate Realm, but it was refuted by some facts.
The calamity that Sky Beyond Sky and the outsiders worried about was the attack from the otherworldly realm. When would they launch a large-scale attack?
In this peaceful era, the undercurrents were already surging. The strong were all restless because they didn't know how fierce the storm in the future would be.
Everyone wanted to increase their strength so that they would have more confidence.
Xiao Chen had let go of a lot of things in this trip to the West Earth. He had one less burden, but the regret in his heart was hard to describe.
This was life. When you thought you had let go, you would feel a kind of bitterness.
Xiao Chen flew all the way. The mountains and rivers quickly passed by and the East Earth was in sight.
Just at this time, he suddenly saw two familiar figures. They were Sky Beyond Sky and the outsider.
"Two Seniors …"
"We haven't recovered yet."
The chubby outsider looked at him with a smile.
"We're just worried that you'll fight the old Asura and the others. It's fine if you just fight, but don't fight to the death."
"I didn't fight to the death with them. I still remember your words."
Xiao Chen looked at them doubtfully. They had clearly warned him many times in the divine village. Why did they purposely come to the human world now?
"We feel that it's better to tell you some things in case something unexpected happens."
The three stood on top of the clouds and strolled on top of the cotton.
Sky Beyond Sky said, "Li Mu in the divine village found out that the Tiger Clan and the Solar God Religion have defected to the Asura Clan and the Skeleton Clan. We're afraid that you'll fight the Asura half-ancestor and the Skeleton Sovereign King."
"I won't hurt the innocent. I just want to get rid of the Tiger Clan and the Solar God Son Oritos."
The outsider nodded with a smile and said, "Then we can be at ease."
Heaven's Beyond Heaven was usually sloppy and had the look of a delinquent. However, at this moment, he was very serious and said, "You asked about us in the past. I can tell you now."
"Since you already possess the strength to contend against Half Martial Ancestors, you should know some secrets that only people of that level can understand."
Although he seemed like a child, his eyes were as deep as the ocean. He had already lived for countless years. He stared at the clouds in a daze, and only after quite a while did he say, "Didn't you ask us about the Hundred Races in the past? I'll tell you right now that the Hundred Races are one with us. We come from the same source. "
"The Hundred Races are one with us?"
Xiao Chen's expression filled with confusion.
The three of them strolled through the clouds. The wind was biting cold, causing their sleeves to flutter. There was also the brilliant rays of the setting sun in the distant sky.
"We are not a family in the symbolic sense. We are truly related by blood."
"What … are you guys talking about?"
Xiao Chen was a little dumbstruck. The Hundred Races and humans were related by blood … This was a little inconceivable.
The Battle Race and the Angel Race were still understandable. After all, they looked very similar to humans. However, the Demonic Ape Race, the Scorpion Race, and the Winged Dragon Race all appeared in beast form. Saying that they were closely related by blood to humans was really a little shocking.
"Didn't you ask about the origin of the Hundred Races in the past? I'll tell you now. "
Heaven's Beyond Heaven sat cross-legged on the clouds. He pointed with his right hand, and a pearl floated in the sky. It stopped the wind in the surroundings and immediately made this place peaceful.
Then, he waved his hand, and a jade table appeared in front of him. It was filled with immortal fruits, and a few of them were especially eye-catching. Yin and Yang energy circulated around them, and a sweet fragrance wafted in the air.
"Life is the greatest miracle in the world."
Heaven's Beyond Heaven spoke very seriously, "The Hundred Races were really separated from us humans. They have the same miracle and potential as us."
After that, Heaven's Beyond Heaven and Beyond Heaven gave Xiao Chen a good lesson. They unraveled this ancient mystery and told him a historical secret that could shock the world.
The Hundred Races were actually a failed experiment!
This conclusion made Xiao Chen's mind buzz. Everything was so unbelievable, it felt like a dream.
There was actually someone controlling the evolution of life!
There was a mysterious giant hand controlling all of this!
"The strongest life form. They wanted to obtain the strongest life form …"
Beyond Heaven looked at the setting sun. Although the sun was at the same level as the clouds, it was still very glaring. However, it seemed like he didn't notice it at all.
"The otherworldly ancestor gods?"
Xiao Chen hurriedly asked, "Is it the otherworldly ancestor gods that are controlling everything?"
"All sorts of clues prove that it was indeed their doing."
Heaven's Beyond Heaven sighed and said, "They were born in this world before us. They might be the most ancient primate lifeforms. They wanted to become stronger, so …"
"So, they used the lifeforms that evolved into primates as an experiment?"
After Xiao Chen came into contact with the truth, he felt both angry and sorrowful.
"The facts have proven that it is indeed so."
Beyond Heaven was very indifferent. He had also been angry in the past, but now, he had already calmed down.
All of this was not something that a half-ancestor could detect. It was a secret discovered by the ancestor gods and the truth was restored after deducing.
Back then, before Shennong fell, he had told all of this to a few half-ancestors.
The Demonic Ape Race, the Scorpion Race, the Giant Race, the Angel Race, and so on were all experimental products. They used humans as the mother and underwent modifications. The code of life could be inherited. From then on, many unusual races appeared in this world.
And the mastermind behind all of this was secretly observing everything. They wanted to obtain the strongest life form. Everything was for their own sake.
That was because they wanted to break through and make their entire race stronger.
"Countless years ago, an otherworldly ancestor god once said that we were only low-level beasts that they reared in captivity. Everything was for the sake of observation and experiment. Their race wanted to use this to break through the barrier."
Under the same sky of civilization, there was a powerful race that first developed spiritual intelligence. In the end, they transcended worldly affairs. After that, they looked down on the boundless land and interfered with the evolution of the races that developed spiritual intelligence later on.
They wanted to gain inspiration from this and speed up their own evolution.
Although the races that developed spiritual intelligence later on were born in the same sky, they were like beasts reared in captivity. However, the entire livestock pen used the world as a cage, making it seem overly large.
Observation, experiment, and strengthening oneself. These were the various reasons why the mastermind behind the scenes continuously pushed for the evolution and transformation of the various races.
"Everything is so inconceivable. The hundred races are one family with us. Someone is interfering with all of this …"
While Xiao Chen was shocked, he also felt exceptionally furious.
Using the world as a cage and rearing humans in this world, the primates under the sky of civilization, were actually just the subjects of observation and experimentation.
"This truth is very cruel!"
Xiao Chen clenched his fist tightly.
"What's even more cruel is that when we reach a certain scale, they will come out and destroy us. Then, they will leave behind a small portion of the flame seed and watch us struggle and evolve again. Among them will definitely be some half-ancestors, as half-ancestors are the foundation of the flame seed.
"It's fine if they just observe and experiment. Why is it like this?"
Xiao Chen found it hard to calm down.
"That's because they want to firmly control us. They want everything to be under their control. They will never allow any power that could threaten them to be born. Our journey is to provide inspiration for their evolution. We are merely their experimental subjects."
Beyond the Sky was as calm as an ancient well. He calmly narrated everything and said, "They have really gained a lot from us. Every time we encounter a great destruction, we provide them with a brand new evolutionary path. In the ancient past, the Martial Realm, Qi Realm, Curse Realm, and Soul Realm respectively corresponded to martial artists, qi practitioners, spell masters, and soul cultivators. They have already observed and grasped all of these ancient evolutionary systems."
Beyond the Sky was silent for a long time. Then, he said, "I have to say, we humans are really creative. Every time we are destroyed, we will take a different path. In the past, we even created a completely different 'technological path'. It was still very powerful, but it was also destroyed after being observed by them."
"That huge black hand is mercilessly controlling all of this. They are really too powerful."
Beyond the Sky sighed helplessly and said, "Especially when it comes to Ancestral God level existences. They are even stricter in their control. They will never allow our side to have more than ten Ancestral God level existences."
Paying attention to the process of humans successfully advancing to Ancestral God level was undoubtedly the greatest inspiration for them. Even they didn't dare to play with fire too much.
While talking about this, the child-like Beyond the Sky gradually became a little depressed. He forcefully took a bite of the Yin Yang Fruit and said, "The illusory half-ancestors were also their experimental subjects. They used the power of faith in the human heart to create a powerful life form. They used the illusory half-ancestors to control the human heart and absorb the power of faith to control the real life forms in the human world. However, in the end, the illusory life forms were inevitably abandoned and killed by them. In the end, only a small portion of the illusory life forms survived."
"Although they knew that the remaining illusory life forms were like parasites and blood-sucking worms that would only greedily absorb the power of the human heart, the Ancestral Gods could only tolerate them for the time being in order to fight against the otherworldly half-ancestors. However, they didn't expect that the strongest illusory life forms actually reconciled with the otherworldly Ancestral Gods and joined hands …"
Until now, Xiao Chen still clearly remembered that during the False God Tribulation, Hong Jun and an otherworldly Ancestral God attacked. Shennong fell, and Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan appeared. He joined hands with the previous Ancestral Dragon and fought against Hong and that otherworldly Ancestral God in outer space.
At this point, an oppressive light shot out from Master Layman's eyes, and he said, "Perhaps, when the illusory and real are reversed, when Yin and Yang coexist, when the world is shaken, the mysterious and unfathomable mighty force that emanates is the only way to restrain that supreme ancient life form!"
This inference wasn't baseless. In the past, when the illusory and the real were reversed, the power of Yin and Yang shook the Nine Prefectures and the Four Great Realms. Even the otherworldly Ancestral Gods all retreated from these realms. In the end, only one otherworldly Ancestral God stayed behind to attack.
"Drawing a prison, we are just beasts that are being reared in captivity. Haha … This is too absurd!"
While he was angry, he also felt that it was pitiful.
"All primordial lifeforms originated from the Nine Prefectures, including the Black Hand. Later on, after they walked different paths, the Four Great Realms were opened up."
Beyond the Sky said unhurriedly, "The Martial Realm, the Qi Realm, the Curse Realm, and the Soul Realm, how glorious were they in the past? The Nine Prefectures, the cradle of life, was incomparably splendid. A hundred schools of thought contended for supremacy. But today, everything has changed. The pure martial artists of the Martial Realm are extinct. The ancient qi practitioners of the Qi Realm have turned into a cultivation system. The Curse Realm and the Soul Realm are no longer as prosperous as they were a long time ago. As for the Nine Prefectures, it's even more needless to say."
Xiao Chen didn't feel good in his heart, but he listened quietly.
"You once asked about the Nine Prefectures and the Four Great Realms. I can only tell you some of the past events of Ancestral God Shennong's generation. In the distant past, the human race was destroyed several times. I don't know about the situation."
Beyond the Sky sighed and said, "The ancestral gods on our side, at their strongest, were only humans with physical bodies. They couldn't reach the number 'ten'. Although they resisted with all their might, they could only retreat to the Martial Realm, which is also the Immortal Realm. Although the other three worlds have many of our people, the ones at the very top of the pyramid are undoubtedly the otherworld Elder Gods. "
During the era of Suirenshi, Nuwa, and Shennongshi, the Martial Realm, which was later known as the World of Immortals, was the only place that didn't have any otherworldly ancestor gods descending to rule over.
Fuxi, Nuwa, Youchaoshi, and Suirenshi were the Ancestral Gods of this era. In the past, they had fought against the Half-Ancestor of the Otherworld and the illusory lifeforms that the Half-Ancestor had just created. They had suffered heavy losses and several Ancestral Gods had perished. In the end, they had retreated to the Martial World and gathered the power of all the Ancestral Gods to protect and protect the Martial World.
Xiao Chen felt very heavy after hearing all this. Fuxi, Suirenshi, Nuwa, Shennong, and the others had really paid too much in the past …
After remaining silent for a long time, Xiao Chen thought of another question that had troubled him for many years. He had asked Sky Beyond Heaven and outsiders more than once.
That was the death of a Martial Ancestor!
This topic seemed to be very heavy. Even Sky Beyond Avalon, who didn't care about anything and was extremely optimistic, sighed repeatedly.
"That is a huge loss that is difficult to make up for!"
Sky Beyond Heaven let out a long sigh.
"The Martial Ancestor was a peerless expert who had reached the peak of the Ninth Celestial Layer of Ancestral God. He could be said to be unparalleled in the world. The power of a pure martial artist was really too strong. Even the Ancestral Gods of the Otherworld were extremely afraid of him. However, that was also the beginning of a tragedy."
This was a bloody past. The Martial Ancestor was plotted against. Several Ancestral Gods of the Otherworld crossed over to the Martial World and used underhanded methods to kill the Martial Ancestor. After paying the painful price of two Ancestral Gods' deaths, they killed the Martial Ancestor.
At the same time, in order to thoroughly exterminate the Martial Cultivator lineage, they made the Half-Ancestor of the Otherworld transform into Qi Refiners, Spell Masters, and Soul Cultivators to attack the Martial Cultivator lineage.
As a result, a great chaotic war broke out in the Martial World. They killed their way out of the Martial World and into the Nine Prefectures. They killed each other. The pure martial artists were exterminated and many Half-Ancestor of other systems also perished.
That was an era of bloodshed. That was a period of darkness. That was a history of blood and tears that made people sigh and lament.
There wasn't much to say. When the fog of history was uncovered, there was only the heaviness after the pain.
This sad history was only known to the Ancestral Gods and a few Half-Ancestor Gods.
The practitioners of various systems that retreated to the Martial World, the number of experts sharply decreased to the lowest point.
Only one knows the warmth and coldness, the living licks their wounds alone.
The Martial World didn't live up to its name anymore. Several Ancestral Gods changed its name to the World of Immortals, meaning eternal life, peace, and harmony. They wanted to protect and create an ideal country.
However, was there really a World of Immortals in the true sense? No!
The World of Immortals was just a dream. Now, the Ancestral Gods that protected it were almost all dead.
"If there is a dream in the heart, there is still hope for everything. Regardless of the Nine Prefectures or the Four Directions World, they will all become the World of Immortals sooner or later."
Xiao Chen muttered to himself.
"Difficult, difficult, difficult!"
Outsiders said the word difficult three times in a row.
In the past, the human race was destroyed several times. Several civilizations were destroyed and everything had to start from the beginning. Now, they were far from their former glory. How could they truly create a world of immortals and harmony?
"Now, the Ancestral Gods are almost all dead. The Ancestral Gods of the Otherworld are descending once again. Don't tell me we are going to be destroyed again?"
"Perhaps. There might be variables."
Sky Beyond Sky looked up at the blue dome of heaven as if he was looking at a mysterious place. He said, "In the past, the Four Directions World and the Nine Prefectures were already weak. However, when they were about to be destroyed, the Great Desolate Realm intervened and prevented another tragedy from happening."
"Great Desolate Realm?"
Xiao Chen was astonished.
"Don't ask me. I don't know what kind of world it is either."
Sky Beyond Sky shook his head.
"There are many variables outside of the world."
The outsider continued, "Let's not talk about the Evil Abyss in the ghost town. I think it might be a Cradle of Life that has already been destroyed. It is an unimaginable place. In history, there has been more than one ghost town. The Nine Lanterns have accompanied the Nine Cities, and the current ghost town is the ninth."
Although Sky Beyond Sky and Sky Beyond Sky had truly entered the World of Death, it was hard to say for sure.
This was a variable! When the illusory and real reversed, the World of Death released a yin and yang energy fluctuation through the Nefas Abyss that even the otherworldly Ancestor Gods felt uneasy. They had no choice but to retreat. Perhaps they could make use of it in the future.
Perhaps it was just as Sky Beyond Sky and Sky Beyond Sky speculated. The World of Death was a place filled with miracles like the Nine Prefectures. It was a cradle of life that existed alongside the Nine Prefectures.
However, it had already been destroyed.
On the other hand, the Great Desolate Realm was aloof and filled with boundless mysteries. Even the Ancestor Gods might only be able to get a glimpse of it.
The sun had already set long ago. As the setting sun faded away, the twinkling stars shone on the layer of clouds.
Xiao Chen mentioned the Heavenly Stele, the mysterious object that created him.
At the same time, he mentioned the stone man that he believed to be the most tyrannical weapon in the world.
The stone man was split into nine parts and scattered all over the world. It was treated as a supreme treasure by several Ancestor Gods. If it was a weapon, it would definitely be the most tyrannical.
Back then, when Xiao Chen blocked the otherworldly Ancestor Gods in the Ancient God Desert, it was clearly the power of the sword. In reality, Xiao Chen believed that it was the stone man's power.
Its incomplete body sat quietly in Xiao Chen's body and created such a huge stone statue. Even though it cracked later on, it could still contend against a half-step Ancestor God.
One could easily imagine how terrifying a real stone man was.
"I've said it before, the human race has been destroyed several times in the past. The mastermind has destroyed many of our civilizations. Suirenshi, Youchao, Fuxi, Shennong, and the Yellow Emperor are just characters from the most recent one or two civilizations. In the distant past, there is no need to be surprised about how many earth-shattering characters have appeared, and how many incomprehensible divine weapons have appeared. After all, the human race used to be glorious in the past, although they have already fallen."
Sky Beyond Sky said.
