Chapter 672 - 672 Primordial World, Nine Heaven Realms, Beginning and End (2)
672 Primordial World, Nine Heaven Realms, Beginning and End (2)
The nine strongest people were above all living beings. Gradually, they were no longer satisfied with being “humans” and began to call themselves “Immortals”. The nine of them were the Immortal Ancestors.
Moreover, in order to differentiate the original world they were in from the immeasurable universes and the worlds in the Chaos Sea, the Nine Immortal Ancestors named this world the Primordial World.
Using the once in 5.6 billion years Chaos Sea Tide as a reference, they established a time unit called the “Primeval Era”.
From then on, the era ruled by the Nine Immortal Ancestors started.
Moreover, based on the concept of Immortals, the concepts of Immortal Emperors, Immortal Kings, and Immortal Monarchs naturally appeared in the years after.
At first, there was no uniform restriction on the use of these titles. It was relatively chaotic.
After several great calamities, people finally treated these names as respectful titles for certain cultivation realms.
In the past long years, the original method of “humans” learning the laws and exploring matter had long been standardized into specific cultivation methods and divided into different levels.
In other words, the “Nine Heaven Realms”.
They were: Heaven Observation, Heaven Prying, Heaven Gazing, Dharma Heaven, Grotto Heaven, Amplify Heaven, Dao Heaven, Heaven Pass, and No Heaven.
Every realm was divided into smaller sub-realms.
Among them, the No Heaven realm corresponded to Immortal Emperor, Heaven Pass corresponded to Immortal King, and Dao Heaven corresponded to Immortal Monarch.
Immortal Ancestor was an existence that surpassed the Nine Heaven Realms.
It was not part of the Nine Heaven Realms.
These were all situations that had evolved over countless years.
In Haojun’s era, the Nine Heaven Realms were still the same, and there were more than 20 Immortal Emperors.
However, there were only seven of the former nine Immortal Ancestors left.
One of them had also not appeared for a long time and his fate was unknown.
There were only six normal Immortal Ancestors left.
This stemmed from the counterattack of the immeasurable universes in the Chaos Sea that had begun 300 Primeval Eras ago.
After a long time, the immeasurable universes in the Chaos Sea also obtained great development and gave birth to endless living beings.
Moreover, under the promotion of the “legacy” of the Supreme Gods of Heaven and Earth, these living beings also grasped their own cultivation methods.
In other words, it was the 36 Mortal, Immortal, and True Realms, as well as the nine Dao Realms.
There were also the Dao Ascension Realm, the Dao Self Realm, and the Grand Primordium Realm that was closer to the origin of the universe. They could truly grasp the power of the Origin Great Dao and were called Ancient Kings.
There were realms above the Grand Primordium realm, but because Haojun’s soul was only one-ninth of the original, his memories were not very complete. There was no information about realms above the Grand Primordium realm.
Actually, even if one did not know the information about the realms above the Grand Primordium realm, one could tell from it that the living beings in the Immeasurable Universes could grasp extremely powerful strength through cultivation.
Hence, the counterattack began.
According to this book, every 12 to 18 Primeval Eras, the experts in the Immeasurable Universes would launch an attack on the Primordial World.
It was called the “Boundless Chaos Universe Calamity”, or simply the “Chaotic Calamity”.
From 300 Primeval Eras ago to now, there have been 19 Chaotic Calamities.
Haojun had been implicated by his master’s mistake in the previous Chaotic Calamity and was exiled here.
However, suppressing his physical body, splitting his soul, and becoming the universe’s Heaven’s Will was actually giving him a chance to make up for his mistakes.
This was essentially the Primordial World’s counterattack on the Chaos Sea.
Using the power of an Immortal King’s soul to occupy the will of the universe and combining it with the Chaos Sea tide to purge the experts in this universe was a method to counterattack.
On one hand, this could effectively weaken the new forces of the Immeasurable Universe. This was obvious.
On the other hand, they could also infiltrate the origin laws of this universe through repeated purgings. As long as he completed the infiltration, he could fuse this universe into the Primordial World.
After the Supreme Gods of Heaven and Earth left, the Primordial World lost the ability to continue expanding and developing. Devouring and fusing the universe in the Chaos Sea became the only way to develop.
And there was only one time to infiltrate the source of a universe’s Great Dao power.
That was when the Ancient Kings died.
In the 10 Primeval Eras where Haojun was exiled to this universe as Heaven’s Will, he had wiped out a total of 35 Ancient Kings, and 14 Ancient Kings had escaped to other universes.
The Ancient Human Monarch and the Lord of the Immortal Domains were two of the 14 Ancient Kings.
The reason why Haojun kept the descendants of the 12 Ancient Kings was to use the inheritance bloodline as a guide to investigate the whereabouts of the 12 Ancient Kings.
Next, Cui Heng also noticed that in the nine Primeval Eras since Haojun came to this universe as Heaven’s Will, he had spent most of his time fighting an existence.
That was the remnant incarnation of the “Supreme God of Heaven”, which was what he had said earlier about the “Heaven’s Will incarnation, Juntian”.
After the Supreme God of Heaven transformed into the laws of the Chaos Sea, every universe or world actually contained a portion of him.
This portion of “Heaven” might awaken its self-awareness over the long years and become the true Heaven’s Will.
It was different from Haojun, who had been used to occupy the position of Heaven’s Will.
This type of Heaven’s Will was a part of the universe itself. Even if it had self-awareness, it would basically not take the initiative to change anything. Most of the time, its presence was extremely low.
However, this Heaven’s Will was Haojun’s greatest obstacle to completely control this universe. It was also his greatest obstacle to completely infiltrate this universe and integrate it into the Primordial World.
Therefore, Haojun had to destroy the original “Heaven’s Will” of this universe.
In the process of fighting each other, this true Heaven’s Will awakened an extremely strong self-awareness and sent down many incarnations who called themselves “Juntian”.
In order to secretly exert influence, Haojun targeted these “Juntian” everywhere.
This was why Cui Heng knew about Zhou Juntian, Venerate Juntian, and the others.
To this day, Haojun had yet to completely kill Venerate Juntian, but he had already turned into a book.
