Chapter 1428: 956 River of Time and Space

The five-colored kindling fire floated in the center of the grand hall, its light soft and not dazzling, emitting a warmth that touched the heart.

Merely approaching the kindling fire could imbue one with endless courage, as if the esteemed forebearers of the Human Race were standing behind oneself, offering an incredibly solid feeling.

The remnants of the Demon God, shrouded in Chaos, were sent by Jiang Chen into the five-colored kindling fire, and no change occurred. However, the Human Race’s Fate was still unable to refine the remnants of the Demon God.

"Above the Primordial Chaos, there lies the Infinite Creation Realm. And above Creation, stands the Chaos Hongmeng Realm. Above Hongmeng, exists the Eternal Heavenly Way Realm."

"Pangu Great God is a being of the greatest standing at the Half-step Great Dao Realm, while the Chaotic Demon Ape is second only to him, transcending Creation and reaching the pinnacle of the Chaos Hongmeng Realm."

"And, because of the previous battle with the Pangu Great God, the Chaotic Demon Ape, though defeated and fallen, benefited from it and subtly touched the mysteries of the Eternal Dao, showing signs of breaking through to the Half-step Eternal Realm."

"Therefore, his power possessed the characteristics of eternal indestructibility."

Through analyzing the remnants of the Chaotic Demon Ape, Jiang Chen realized the current realm he was in—a mysterious state where, once fully recovered, he could immediately step into the Half-step Great Dao Realm occupied by Pangu Great God.

It could be said that, aside from Pangu Great God, this was the most powerful existence Jiang Chen had encountered.

Holding the power to transcend the Chaos World, a Wuji Daluo Jinxian rules over creation, wielding infinite creativity to bring forth existence from nothingness and shape all things.

As for beings of the Chaos Hongmeng Realm, they were even more terrifying—equivalent to Chaos itself, at the dawn of Hongmeng and the beginning of Taiji, their power was boundless and almost omnipotent.

And now, the Heavenly Dao of the Chaos World was at this level, comparable to a fully realized master of the Chaos Hongmeng Realm.

Why could the Heavenly Dao dominate everything, even ensuring that saints could ascend to the realm of Wuji Daluo Jinxian? The answer was clear—because the Heavenly Dao was sufficiently powerful.

In the peak state of the Chaos World’s Primordial Chaos, the strength of the Heavenly Dao was at the peak of the Chaos Hongmeng Realm, possessing crushing power over anyone; wasn’t it simply whimsical and willful?

Even the mighty Demon Gods didn’t dare to brazenly appear in the Chaos World. Did you really think they feared the mighty beings of the Chaos World? Not at all—the vast Chaos World, aside from Pangu Great God, feared only the ubiquitous Heavenly Dao.

"From the state of the Heavenly Dao, one can deduce the state of the Chaos World. Although the Chaos World has fractured several times and its level has continuously fallen, the power of the Heavenly Dao has not weakened."

"This shows that, even though Heaven and Earth shattered numerous times, the Original Source was not diminished but merely dispersed, transforming from one into ten, naturally causing the level to fall."

"At the same time, this also indicates that by reassembling the dispersed Original Source of the Chaos World, it can be restored to its peak."

"Reconstructing the Chaos World is not unfeasible but entirely achievable, as long as someone is willing to do it, it can definitely succeed."

Jiang Chen, analyzing the strength of the Heavenly Dao, realized that while the Human Race was flourishing, there was still a gap to the Chaotic Demon Ape. To refine his remnants, relying solely on the Fate of the Human Race was insufficient.

One needed to leverage the Fate of the Human Race as a fulcrum to pry the power of the Human Path in order to refine the Demon God’s remnants.

Beyond the Heavenly Dao, the Chaos World comprised also the Human Path and Earth Path. The three merely had different responsibilities, but their powers had no difference. As the Heavenly Dao was an entity of the Chaos Hongmeng Realm, so were the Earth Path and Human Path.

Although the essence of the Demon God’s remnants was elevated, at most it was at the same tier as the Human Path—with the leverage of the Human Path’s power, refining him was not difficult.

"Go!"

With a thought, Jiang Chen took out the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens, placing it above the five-colored kindling fire.

In the next instant, Jiang Chen activated the divine ancestors’ mandate, gathering the infinite willpower of the living beings.

Boom boom boom!

The void trembled, and streams of golden willpower, like rivers, pierced through the void, rushing torrentially into the five-colored kindling fire, fueling it and causing the flames to surge explosively in an instant, showing a potential for a wildfire.

From a spark, a blazing fire can be started.

As the five-colored kindling fire burned, brilliant multicolored flames soared directly into the depths of the void, igniting a myriad of paths, which continued extending forward, penetrating the deepest parts of Heaven and Earth, and burning towards the Original Source of Heaven and Earth.

Boom boom boom!

Sensing an attack on the Original Source, that mysterious and unknowable land where the wills of all beings lay dormant, the Human Path suddenly awakened.

A supremely majestic power erupted, crossing layers of the void and thunderously descending upon the Grand Temple, acting upon the five-colored kindling fire, compressing the wildly spreading flames into a mass.

The size instantly shrank by billions of times, and the power at the center of the five-colored kindling fire began to undergo a transformation, steadily climbing upwards, quickly reaching an immensely terrifying realm.

The encapsulated remnants of the Demon God gradually could not withstand this power, starting to be refined, with wisps of indescribable great power rising from it, absorbed by the Soil of Rest lingering above the kindling fire.

Buzzing...

The effects of the Demon God’s power were immediate: having just absorbed a strand, the Soil of Rest from the Nine Heavens showed signs of ascension.

The 180,000 particles constituting its form trembled and roared continuously, emanating waves of extremely potent primal vital energy, manifesting various phenomena.

BOOM—

As if the most mystical sound between Heaven and Earth sounded, the entirety of Heaven and Earth trembled and roared, mountains and rivers quivered lightly, as if dancing, mysterious celestial music emanated from everywhere, as if welcoming the birth of some great entity.
