Chapter 1988 - 1250: Sinking into the River of Space-Time
CHAPTER 1988: CHAPTER 1250: SINKING INTO THE RIVER OF SPACE-TIME
"Is that the aura of the Space-Time Demon God? Has He awakened?"
The Thunder Demon God instinctively stepped back, his voice betraying a fear even he hadn’t realized.
There are only a few powerful beings standing at the pinnacle of the Chaos Gods; now it is Pangu Great God, previously the Chaos God, and before that it was the Space-Time God.
But unlike the others, the Chaos God was slain by the combined efforts of many, his strength shattered by his fellow Chaos Gods, so the Chaos Gods do not fear him.
Though Pangu Great God is strong, he destroyed the Chaos God’s homeland to achieve the Dao, so the Chaos Gods hate him more than they fear him.
But the Space-Time Demon God is special, a monument that no Chaos Demon God can surpass. Even though he has fallen for endless eras, his name continues to be spoken in the Chaos.
In fact, it can be said that the later generations of Chaos Gods were born because of him.
In the eras of the Space-Time Demon God, the number of Chaos Gods was extremely few, just a handful. It was when he attained the Dao using space-time to shake Chaos, stirring up a boundless time storm within the infinite Chaos.
This caused Chaos to change, shifting slightly from a state of eternal stagnation. It was this slight shift that gave rise to the potential for more Chaos Gods to emerge.
Therefore, after the fall of the Space-Time Demon God, the restless Chaos nurtured more life, birthing more and more Chaos Gods, heralding the era belonging to the Chaos Gods.
The achievements of the Space-Time Demon God are remembered in the hearts of subsequent Chaos Gods, inspiring both respect and longing, mixed with fear.
Respecting his greatness, longing for his power, and fearing his might at the same time.
To shake all of Chaos single-handedly, what an incredible feat that is. Even Pangu, during the creation of heavens, only carved out a small portion of Chaos, not all of it.
If Pangu Great God possessed the power to move all of Chaos, he might not have failed in opening the heavens.
"Rest assured, the Space-Time Demon God will not awaken. Compared to us, perhaps the Time Storm and Space Demon Gods themselves hope less for his return."
"Even if the Space-Time Demon God awakens, he won’t kill them. However, if the Space-Time Great Dao is occupied by the Space-Time Demon God, they shouldn’t even dream of achieving the Dao thereafter, which is even more cruel than killing them."
"Just for this reason, we can be certain they won’t revive the Space-Time Demon God under any circumstances."
Compared to the Thunder Demon God’s tension, Jiang Chen appeared rather relaxed.
He didn’t understand what divine ability the Time Storm and Space Demon Gods might have conjured, but he understood human nature, knowing that the two demon gods would never sacrifice themselves for the Space-Time Demon God.
"I can feel it, the Prehistoric World has started responding to me—just hold on a bit longer. Once the response from the Prehistoric World comes, even if the Space-Time Demon God truly awakens, we’ll be able to face him in battle."
Jiang Chen’s confidence not only stems from his understanding of human nature but also the Prehistoric World’s response. As long as the power of the Primordial arrives, this round is already his victory.
"The reappearance of the Space-Time Demon God’s power—how can we resist it?"
Jiang Chen spoke nonchalantly, yet the Thunder Demon God didn’t feel a shred of relief, rather he sensed immense pressure.
Because even as they were speaking, Putin’s Boundless Sea of Space-Time began transforming once more.
The space-time fragments scattered nearby started to reassemble as the Space-Time Demon God’s power awakened, merging with the Boundless Sea of Space-Time, continuously evolving.
Ultimately, it transformed into a vast river without end or source, roaring beneath their feet, rushing towards all of Chaos.
"Jiang Chen, you have seen the Prehistoric World’s River of Space-Time, but have you ever seen the River of Space-Time that belongs to Chaos?"
"Now, you shall witness a miracle, the River of Space-Time rushing beneath your feet, Chaos’s history unfolding before your eyes, transforming into an endless power to engulf you, then dragging you into the depths of Chaos, completely dissolving you into nothingness."
The voices of the Time Storm and Space Demon Gods, or perhaps it was the Space-Time Demon God, echoed like Chaos roaring, ceaselessly resonating in Jiang Chen’s ears.
No, not resonating in his ears, but echoing through past and future. The past’s weak Jiang Chen, the present’s powerful Jiang Chen, the future’s even stronger Jiang Chen, all heard this voice simultaneously.
"The power of the Space-Time Great God is indeed formidable!"
Suddenly looking up, Jiang Chen’s voice was filled with awe. He had long jumped out of the River of Space-Time, existing without a past, present, or future, in the form of the Dao.
Yet under the power of the Space-Time Demon God, his severed past, present, and future resurfaced, recreated forcibly by the Space-Time Demon God’s power.
This power had already surpassed Jiang Chen’s understanding.
But it was not over, the River of Space-Time belonging to Chaos rushed beneath his feet, dragging his will astray. Then, the Chaos’s past, like a flood, surged into his consciousness.
Does Chaos have a past? The answer is no.
Because Chaos has no concept of space-time, it can be said that past is present, and can be said that it is future. It can also be said that past, present, and future occur simultaneously.
Thus Chaos is nothingness! Since it’s nothing, how can there be space-time, how can there be a past?
However, under the power of the River of Space-Time, Jiang Chen, who had no past, present, or future, gained past, present, and future, and so did Chaos.
The River of Space-Time surged, as if it wished to pierce through all of Chaos. Naturally, mysterious changes occurred. Chaos roared, reordered by this power, transforming from disorder to order, from nonexistence to existence.
Affected by this, Chaos acquired its own timeline, pasts rearranged, slowly presenting in front of Jiang Chen.
The commotion here also alarmed the other Chaos Gods.
After all, the River of Space-Time was too vast, nearly engulfing all of Chaos, even now all Chaos Gods suffering severe injuries felt its presence almost instantly.
"What, the River of Space-Time?"
"How can such a thing exist in Chaos?"
"No, this aura is somewhat similar to Time Storm and Space, but more powerful."
"It’s the Space-Time Demon God, this River of Space-Time is the Great Dao of the Space-Time Great God. Could it be, is the Space-Time Demon God awakening, preparing to achieve the Dao again?"
"Or, have Time Storm and Space found the Space-Time Great God’s fallen land?"
At this moment, the Chaos Gods’ hearts brimmed with enormous curiosity, but none dared to step forward and observe. The reason being the River of Space-Time was too terrifying; they feared being swept into it and losing themselves.
Roaring!
The River of Space-Time roared, continuously sinking Jiang Chen’s will. Even with the treasure Reincarnation Wheel in hand, Jiang Chen could only maintain his will without losing it, unable to free himself from the River of Space-Time.
A river runs through Chaos, Jiang Chen’s will sinks into it, tracing back along the river towards its source.
