I am just a mortal, why do you all worship me as a saint?

Chapter 941: The Story of Zu Xian - Part 1

After Zhao instilled that "past" into everyone, the tomb keepers became mere bystanders observing the past.

Yue Ru also became an observer.

"...The myriad realms of the past were so peaceful."

"But there's nothing there."

She gazed silently at the boundless void of the myriad realms.

This was an ancient era from who knows how long ago, an era before any civilization existed in the myriad realms. As far as the eye could see, there was only a vast and silent void, dotted with starlight in the darkness, far unlike the present era.

Today, civilizations are visible almost everywhere in the myriad worlds. But long ago, none of these existed.

Although there is no civilization in the myriad worlds, there is no life. At least Yue Ru can see a familiar creature: the "Source Beasts" that are born in the void and can roam freely in the void!

The source beasts that roam the void will fight each other when they meet.

The winners feast, the losers die.

Source Beasts are native creatures of the myriad worlds. They do not exist in countless lower-level source realms; they only exist in the myriad worlds above. They are born with the strength of the World Realm. Source Beasts are mindless, love to fight, and are like irreconcilable enemies to one another.

The strength of these native creatures is also quite easy to distinguish: the larger they are, the stronger they are, and the smaller they are, the weaker they are.

of course.

In this era where civilization is flourishing everywhere, source beasts are not a threat at all. If a source beast dares to approach the border of a civilization, it will be completely wiped out in an instant.

Often, for many cultivators who have just entered the World Realm, the task assigned to them by civilization is to hunt source beasts, improve their strength, and incidentally prove themselves.

Yue Ru had also experienced something similar; it was a "coming-of-age ceremony" arranged for her by her own family.

But in this ancient era within the "past events," there was no civilization in the myriad realms, and she couldn't even see any people!

Only Source Beasts, countless Source Beasts.

until.

A humble, insignificant figure transcended the Origin Realm and rose up.

“Finally someone has arrived.”

Yue Ru gazed at the figure, and for some reason, felt a sense of relief. The myriad worlds, devoid of civilization and seemingly barbaric and ferocious, now had finally seen someone emerge, and she felt much more at ease.

"Rong...a predecessor of one of the Eight Sages of the First Ancestor."

This "past event" was a collection of memories compiled by others, so Yue Ru naturally learned the origin of that figure.

Among the eight stone statues in the Zuxian Civilization Relics, the one in the very center is "Rong," one of the eight ancestral sages.

Rong was the first to transcend.

He reached the pinnacle in the Origin Realm, but he couldn't take that step of transcendence for a long time because at that time, there was no way to "transcend" it. Everyone thought that the Origin Realm was the pinnacle of cultivation, and there was no possibility of reaching the next level.

Can understand.

After all, at the peak of the Origin Realm, one has already conquered the Heavenly Dao in the lower plane of the Origin Realm, and is already an existence like the God of Heaven.

Although it is said that "there is a heaven beyond heaven", who could really have imagined that there is another heaven beyond heaven?

But after several eras of slumber, awakening, and repeated cycles, Rong decided, through countless reincarnations of beings in the Origin Realm, that he could not remain stagnant.

While countless beings in the Origin Realm were still in a daze, Rong took a considerable amount of time to take this extremely important step!

Keep going!

Yue Ru had no idea what he had come to understand during those seven eras.

But Rong eventually opened up a new realm, condensing his own "life source" and carrying the power to reach the next level.

The world realm has appeared.

"It took so much time to finally understand it?"

"Our predecessors truly deserve the title of 'pioneers'."

The current world realm is no longer worthy of being called "powerful" and "truthful." It is merely a threshold for entering the myriad realms and pursuing higher realms. But what kind of heaven-defying geniuses must have been able to cross this threshold in the past?

Not to mention, how do you even grasp this threshold?

Yue Ru dared not think about it.

She herself completed the cultivation journey from a "mortal body" to the "world realm" in just two thousand years.

Even so, she wouldn't be considered particularly talented.

Those who are truly talented can probably compress this timeframe to hundreds of years, or even decades!

In the blink of an eye, an era has passed, and some people have been able to make such a leap. It has to be said that "talent" is indeed very important.

Not to mention that in all the myriad realms, there exist so-called "chosen ones," those are the truly exceptional talents born in accordance with destiny...

But without these predecessors paving the way, those who come after would surely be a laughing stock. "Let's see what happens next."

Over countless years, Rong must have gone through countless battles with heaven and man before he finally comprehended the truth. In Yue Ru's eyes, the entire process had been compressed into a mere ten breaths, fleeting yet incredibly clear.

But this "past" is only just beginning.

Yue Ru couldn't wait to see the end.

……

As Rong traveled through the myriad realms, he discovered that he had arrived at an incredibly terrifying place.

He transcended into a completely new and much larger world.

Upon arriving here, Rong made a judgment: this world absolutely cannot allow beings below the World Realm to enter, because the oppression of heaven and earth here is much heavier than that of the Origin Realm, and it is also permeated with a more special power!

It coexists with heaven and earth, and is even the sole essence constituting all the myriad realms of this world. It is eternal and omnipresent! Rong calls this power "concept".

The concept is far more advanced than the various "rules" that exist below the Source Realm. The two are worlds apart, yet they are inextricably linked!

Rong also realized that this so-called "new world" was not independent of his original world, but rather had a superior-subordinate relationship. Therefore, Rong guessed that there were even more lower worlds!

therefore.

Rong began searching for "kindred spirits".

But this journey is quite dangerous.

There was no prosperity brought by civilization, only endless primitiveness and savagery. He was all alone, and had just entered the World Realm. To those enormous Source Beasts, Rong was just a tiny ant passing by, while to the smaller Source Beasts...

It is some kind of "novel" food.

Rong gradually improved his strength by avoiding the large enemies and fighting the smaller ones. As time passed, one day, Rong followed a thought and found another Origin Realm.

He saw another cultivator who, after becoming obsessed with becoming the "strongest," had fallen into a state of depression, just like him, unsure of what the future held.

Overjoyed, Rong extended a helping hand without hesitation.

The second "World Realm" has appeared.

Rong also found companions.
