Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me
Chapter 1979 - 1244: Destiny Demon God
CHAPTER 1979: CHAPTER 1244: DESTINY DEMON GOD
The tone of the Thunder Demon God was filled with helplessness. He was a Demon God of great fortune, even considered top-tier among the Chaos Demigods.
Otherwise, he would not have found the Fallen Land of the Space-Time Demon, which neither the Time Storm God nor the Space Devil could locate.
Being able to find this place indicated he was lucky. Yet his luck proved ineffective in front of Pangu, the child of the Great Dao.
Pangu opened the heavens, intending to break through the chaos, forcing him to intervene. After all, if the chaos shattered, the living beings within it would have no chance to achieve eternity.
For the Path of Dao, the Chaos Demigods had to stop the Pangu Great God. However, they failed, perishing entirely at the hands of Pangu, and after death, their True Spirits were sealed by Pangu, making it impossible to escape back to chaos for recovery.
This was the tragedy of the Thunder Demon God. Although he found an opportunity to break through, the seal on him prevented him from returning, a torment indeed.
Later, due to an accident, the Thunder Demon God was reincarnated into the Prehistoric World, transforming into the Thunder Marsh Great God and embracing a new life.
But his rebirth was not without cost. Being born in the Prehistoric World, he was restricted by it and had to resolve his causal ties with the Prehistoric World before he could leave.
After relentless efforts, the Thunder Demon God finally severed his ties with the Prehistoric World after the end of the First Calamity, allowing him to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as he left the Prehistoric World and entered chaos, he was targeted by the Space Devil.
The Space Devil seemed to have detected the aura of the Space-Time Demon on him and kept a secret watch on him.
Fearing he might lead the Space Devil to the Fallen Land of the Space-Time Demon, the Thunder Demon God refrained from going there and instead remained in chaos, plotting with other Chaos Demigods to prepare revenge against the Prehistoric World.
Thus, countless years passed. Until recently, these Chaos Demigods chose to self-destruct in the Prehistoric World, intending to destroy Heaven and Earth, affecting everything.
Seizing this opportunity, the Thunder Demon God finally shook off the Space Devil’s watch and returned to the Fallen Land of the Space-Time Demon.
Returning to his place of opportunity, and bringing Thunder Marsh back with him, the Thunder Demon God appeared very excited.
He thought that if he could refine Thunder Marsh along with the residual original source of the Space-Time Demon, he would surely become the strongest Chaos Demon God, possibly even surpassing Pangu.
Then, he would only need to devour Heaven and Earth, and he estimated he could achieve the Dao.
This was the thought of the Thunder Demon God at that time. He was undoubtedly thrilled, seeing this as the starting point of his path to achieving the Dao. Unfortunately, reality played a huge joke on him.
Due to severe injuries, his plan was only half-executed before he exhausted his power and had to enter slumber.
Then, his plan completely slipped out of his control, starting to head towards the unknown.
"How truly helpless!"
Jiang Chen sighed, shaking his head.
The encounter of the Thunder Demon God is indeed quite thought-provoking. Clearly having the opportunity in hand, yet unable to grasp it, failing time and again, who wouldn’t find it unacceptable?
"It’s not helplessness; it’s the Curse of Destiny!"
The Thunder Demon God said with a somber face.
His failure was not purely due to bad luck, but because of the Curse of Destiny, which was the key to his failure.
"Curse of Destiny?"
Jiang Chen was surprised, finding it hard to imagine hearing the word ’destiny’ from the mouth of a Chaos Demigod. The more powerful an existence, the more they belittle destiny, even disregarding it.
To defy fate is fundamental to being strong. Those who believe in destiny are destined not to become strong.
"Yes, destiny!"
"Few know that there was once an incredibly powerful demon god named the Destiny Demon. He was as mighty as the Space-Time Demon and was the latter’s nemesis."
"It was his attack that led to the Space-Time Demon’s failure to break through, perishing from chaos backlash."
The Thunder Demon God spoke with severity, fully aware that being cursed by destiny meant he could never refine this place.
But his destiny should not end here.
He hadn’t achieved the Dao yet, so how could he perish just like that?
Since the path of the Chaos Demigods was not viable, he might as well switch to a new path and start again. And to switch paths, he needed the consent of the person before him.
Therefore, the Chaos Demigod began to demonstrate his value and revealed everything he knew.
"Destiny Demon?"
Hearing this from the Thunder Demon God, Jiang Chen seemed to understand that this place was far more significant than he imagined.
It turned out to be not only the Fallen Land of the Space-Time Demon but also that of the Destiny Demon. Two beings about to achieve eternity both perished here; the residual power left could be imagined to be vast.
If the Prehistoric World could refine it, unimaginable benefits would certainly be gained.
"Destiny and time seem unrelated. But at the end of the Great Dao, all roads converge; no matter which Great Dao you travel, they’re interconnected in the end."
"Space-time and destiny are the same. The River of Space-Time encompasses everything, naturally including destiny. Conversely, the majestic River of Destiny can also encompass space-time."
"This is the beginning of the dispute between the Destiny Demon and the Space-Time Demon. Only one of them could step into the Great Dao Realm; whoever achieved eternity first would block the other’s path to the Dao."
"Thus, they became mortal enemies, eventually perishing together."
The dust-laden history was revealed from the mouth of the Thunder Demon God. It was history even unknown to the Pangu Great God, and it was only after the Thunder Demon God refined this place that these facts became known.
