CHAPTER 1657: CHAPTER 1598: ORIGIN OF THE HEAVENLY CLAN, STEP INTO THE HEART!

Boom boom boom! Boom boom boom!

The terrifying power poured down, those were colossal hands emitting black light, far stronger than the Great Power of emperors by countless times, stirring up boundless storms.

Stars fall, sun and moon rise and fall, pitch-black Great Rifts open around Xiao Chen, piercing through his body and spreading deep into the endless space-time!

Each of these Great Rifts possessed a terror capable of destroying heaven and earth, even the shadows passing through space-time made them feel a chilling fear, and even the Nine Nether of another era was collapsing and being destroyed.

Just as it is said, once they truly find the temporal node where they are, that will be true destruction.

At this moment, the gaze of the three, Xiao Chen included, was directed at the willful figure of the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation, logically they should not delay at all in destroying that heart, which was their ultimate goal in coming to the Nine Nether Underworld Realm.

"The Six Paths Gate holds the power of reincarnation, wandering within the space-time, in a short time that old thing cannot accurately find it, but it’s not easy to destroy this heart."

Finally, the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation spoke, with a sense of gravity, meanwhile even Xiao Chen felt an invisible pressure.

"At the creation of heaven and earth, three thousand Primordial Spirits were born at the beginning of desolation, this heart was taken from one of those Primordial Spirit beings, and the Primordial Spirit is extremely powerful, possessing power surpassing emperors from birth."

"Long ago, the Heavenly Race found a heavily injured sleeping Primordial Spirit deep in space-time, paid a huge price to acquire this heart, perhaps this is the last Primordial Spirit within heaven and earth."

I must say, the longer the time, the deeper the understanding of this terrifying race of the Heavenly Race, even able to slay Primordial spiritual beings; beings born with the world, possessing power exceeding emperors from birth, unbelievably majestic. If not for them slaying each other, how could there be subsequent civilizations to flourish, much less any involvement of the Heavenly Race?

"What kind of existence is the Heavenly Race exactly?"

A moment later, a voice echoed, it was Xiao Chen speaking, Cang Emperor and Tu Emperor similarly turned their gaze towards one direction.

Such a race is truly beyond imagination, controlling the entire operation of heaven and earth, leading the origin and destruction of one civilization after another, transcending external things, a civilization spanning epochs like a toy in their hands.

When they tire of a toy, they destroy it and replace it with another. How terrifying is that?

"In ancient times, before the demise of this emperor, I once ventured deep into the Primordial Chaos of the Heavens to seek traces left behind by the three thousand Primordial Spirits, but too much time has passed, so long that even traces of Primordial Spirits can be erased."

"However, the creation of heaven and earth, Primordial Spirits are the source of Dao practices, the three thousand Great Dao is the most primitive Dao in this world, many of the later paths are minor Dao practices. As long as Dao practices leave traces, even if the Heavenly Race wishes to conceal, they cannot completely hide it."

"The Heavenly Race is Primordial Spirits!"

At this moment, not only Xiao Chen but also Cang Emperor and Tu Emperor gasped in shock; this revelation was too heavy, like the weight of a Divine Mountain of billions.

Primordial Spirits, originating from the beginning of heaven and earth. Back when Xiao Chen had just embarked on the path of cultivation, he thought the Wild Gods were the civilization at the beginning of heaven and earth, spawning eternal myths!

But now at this point, he realized how laughable his understanding was back then, surpassing gods, transcending Spirit Immortals, originating from the true primordial era at the beginning of heaven and earth...what a long age.

More importantly, at the very beginning of heaven and earth, the Dao practices were incomplete, it was the law practices of these Primordial Spirits that aggregated chaos, thus deriving multitude paths of the heaven based on the three thousand Dao practices, this is not just the beginning of a realm, but the beginning of Dao practices.

"They should be considered descendants of one of the three thousand Primordial Spirits. Almost all three thousand Primordial Spirits had fallen, it’s unknown how this particular Primordial Spirit’s lineage survived the calamity of heaven and earth."

"This heart may be the only actual Primordial Spirit remains left in this Desolated World, for the humanity, it is a creation, an opportunity to become the true dominator of a realm, to establish a true civilization era for humanity, surpass the immortality of gods, transcend the longevity of Spirit Immortals, and rival the primordial beginning!"

"Of course, it’s also a disaster capable of complete annihilation!"

"In those years?" Hearing the words of the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation, Xiao Chen couldn’t help but carefully ask.

"In those years, I was indeed unable to continue fighting; the power of the Heavenly Race was too strong, their Dao and law practices held great power of conquest. Ultimately, I had to immerse myself in the Nine Nether, using the power of the Nine Nether Underworld to grasp this heart in hand, if ever the situation becomes truly uncontrollable, it’s a fight to the death."

The voice of the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation carried depth, yet at this moment it exuded a hint of coldness.

"Never expected I overestimated the Heavenly Race, invincible in the mortal world, watching the rise and fall of civilizations, it seems to have made them complacent, lost their once decisive conquests, allowing me to dwell tranquilly in the Nine Nether through such a long epoch."

"There is no eternal invincibility in the world, even if all three thousand Primordial Spirits are buried in time, the Heavenly Race is strong, but still far from the once great three thousand spirits!"

Upon saying this, the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation again cast his thoughts upon the three, but this time he gave no hint to them. In an instant, Xiao Chen felt his entire body being imprisoned, and the same was true for Cang Emperor and Tu Emperor.

"Although the Six Paths of Reincarnation Gate is shattered, it still holds the power of rebirth. Since you have found a loophole to come back to life, go reclaim your former peak."

With the drop of these words, Cang Emperor and Tu Emperor directly leapt into the Void, entering a Reincarnation Gate.

"Carrying four generations of civilization, the descendant of my lineage, can you tell me what kind of existence resides within you?"

Shortly after, the Ancestral Emperor of Ancient Desolation stared at Xiao Chen.

Buzz!

A green light shot out from Xiao Chen’s body, forming the Mountain River Seal, revealing Luli’s figure. Although her power couldn’t match that of the Ancestral Emperor, for a moment her aura was not overshadowed.

"Spirit Immortal Civilization." Yet swiftly the Ancestral Emperor shook his head, "It should be the era of alternation between Desolate Wilds and Spirit Immortal, or perhaps even earlier. Chaos Divine Copper is a divine material said only to be derived at the creation of the world itself, claimed to share fate with the world, indestructible and immortal. Your lineage surpasses my imagination; what fate you possess, my human race’s young one."

"You are a Primordial Spirit."

"No, primordial spirits have nearly perished completely. I am born from Chaos Divine Copper. Although I am also called a spirit, I differ fundamentally from primordial spirits."

"Let me help you complete your missing form, and in return, you assist my people in achieving the Dao, shall we?"

Suddenly, the Ancestral Emperor’s words sounded. Though brief, Xiao Chen heard a monstrous atmosphere of conquest towards Luli, but the Ancestral Emperor still carried a hint of hesitation.

"Alright!"

Luli’s gentle hum resonated like a supreme empress; faint green light wrapping around her, warding off the terrifying pressure outside her form, snuggling at Xiao Chen’s front. Although she could be considered a kind of life, at essence she differs from actual flesh and blood beings.

Buzz buzz buzz!

In the next moment, the Mountain River Seal suspended in front of Xiao Chen emitted waves of buzzing sound, showing glimpses of Ten Thousand Miles Mountains and Rivers, flowing like tides, the weight of mountains and rivers wielding the power to suppress all.

Once engraved on the Mountain River Seal were ethereal imprints of celestial flight, various illusionary scrolls overflowed into a part of the Void.

However, not awaiting Xiao Chen’s reaction, he found himself lifted into the air, crashing towards that blood-colored heart.

"They possess the bodies of reincarnated sovereigns, headed into the years of reincarnation to reclaim their former peak powers. Your path differs from theirs. Even immortal deities originate from the ancient desolation; to truly transform into a deity, seek your answers in chaos!"

The voice of the Ancestral Emperor echoed in Xiao Chen’s ear, yet the scene before him had already transformed into a blood-colored haze.

"The Primordial Spirit is an existence venturing into chaos, even if its heart alone remains following its demise, it still retains that unique imprint of the Dao from the time before creation, perhaps even the scenarios of conquest once held by this primordial spirit. The extent of your journey from here, depends solely on you."

"As for your Chaos Ultimate Treasure, there is no need to worry. When you return here, I shall give you a complete treasure!"

Upon these words settling, Xiao Chen had already plunged into the Primordial Spirit Heart, completely lost within the infinite blood-color!

"Chaos Divine Copper at its core, constructed upon Chaos Divine Crystal to form the foundation of the world, imprinted with the same Great Dao as the Wild Heaven and Earth, a majestic gesture and presence. Pity that we do not exist in the same era, unable to verify cultivation with such an existence. Can Spirit Immortal indeed achieve eternal life and undying!"

At this moment, the Ancestral Emperor gazed at the Mountain River Seal, his eyes filled with a profound depth.

"There is no such thing as eternal life and undying. Conquest is the inherent nature of living beings. Eternal life is merely an extravagant hope; even if life spans are endless, one day there will be a fall beneath the blood hue."

Luli shook her head slightly; this was a wisdom Xiao Chen had never seen before, seemingly awakened to many memories, recalling much past conquest.

Yet, the Ancestral Emperor shook his head, "Conquest is fundamentally for survival; the Celestial Race draws from several civilizations to nourish itself, bringing about the fall of countless lives. But for themselves, it’s merely to survive better, and likewise for my human race, it’s for better propagation. This is the Dao of the race, only kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Back when I became emperor, venturing into chaos to explore the roots of the Celestial Race, I obtained a piece of Chaos Divine Crystal, which was incorporated into my destiny battle axe, but later the axe was shattered too, now buried in time, what use is repairing the battle axe?"

In an instant, facing the blood-colored heart and seated cross-legged in silence, an infinitely violent aura of conquest surged forth, and an ethereal axe began to solidify.
