Chapter 795: 623 Crisis of the Prehistoric World_2

However, if Chang’e is truly Xihe’s daughter, why is her power so weak?

Chang’e being Xihe’s daughter is quite likely, after all, this is the Prehistoric World, not modern society. A child does not necessarily have to be born from two people. One person can give birth alone.

The older the era, the more peculiar the ways of giving birth. Before the Great Ancient times, the Heavenly Earthly Origin was dense, roaming between Heaven and Earth. If an Innate Divine Saint accidentally bled, and their blood mingled with the Heavenly Earthly Origin, it would with a high probability give birth to new life.

The Nine Sons of Ancestral Dragon were born this way. Every time the Ancestral Dragon was injured, its Original Source would leak out and resonate with Heaven and Earth, giving birth to the nine innate Divine Demons, known as the Nine Sons of Ancestral Dragon. They were born of Ancestral Dragon’s Original Source, hence they are the sons of the Ancestral Dragon.

The formation of the Ten Golden Crows was similar. In the Ancient Era, at the initial formation of Heaven Court, the twelve Ancestral Witches and their followers invaded and instigated a war with Heaven Court. After the battle, Di Jun sustained severe injuries. While he was recovering within the Sun Star, he coughed up ten drops of essence blood. These ten drops of blood, blended with the original source of the Sun Star, gave birth to the Ten Golden Crows.

During the Quantitative Calamity of the Witches and Evil Spirits, Xihe battled the Ancestral Witch of Poison. Although she didn’t fall, she must have been injured. While recovering within the Taiyin Star, her original source leaked out and resonated with the Innate Original Source, giving birth to a new Innate Divine Demon. This was not impossible.

"Huh, whatever their relationship is, it’s not my concern. I just need to keep my distance from them in the future. But, with Xihe on the Taiyin Star, how can I collect the Taiyin Star map?"

"What a nuisance!"

"Well, I’ll have to take it one step at a time."

Fearing that he might be sensed by Xihe, Jiang Chen stopped thinking about her and started to consider how to steal the Taiyin Star map right under her nose. However, after pondering for a long time, he couldn’t come up with any good ideas.

"No wonder the young lady didn’t want to stay in Guanghan Palace. I thought she felt it was too cold in Taiyin Star, but I only found out today that there’s a Big God living in Guanghan Palace. If I were in her position, I wouldn’t want to live with this Big God either."

As he was thinking this, Jiang Chen had already arrived at the boundary between Heaven and Earth and Chaos.

Boom!

With a wave of his wide sleeve, Jiang Chen released a vast force that shattered the barrier between Heaven and Earth in front of him. He then took a step forward and entered Chaos.

"Ah, the fragmentation of the Prehistoric World is to the benefit of Chaos, making it grow stronger."

Standing here, Jiang Chen looked upon the Boundless Chaos in front of him and couldn’t help but sigh. Despite Chaos being a barrier to defend the Prehistoric World from the erosion of Great Chaos, it doesn’t mean that Chaos is necessarily safe.

Every time the Prehistoric World shatters, Chaos expands a little. From the time of creation until now, the Prehistoric World has shattered at least three times, thus Chaos has expanded three times and its power is almost surpassing that of the Prehistoric World.

If it continues to be like this, once the power of Chaos surpasses the Prehistoric World, the very Chaos that was supposed to protect the Prehistoric World from the invasion of Great Chaos will become a flood beast and will engulf the Prehistoric World first.

When the power of the Prehistoric World is stronger than that of Chaos, it is the umbrella protecting the Prehistoric World; otherwise, it becomes a death warrant for the Prehistoric World.

Chaos is like a sea, and the Prehistoric World is like a continent on the sea. Initially, the continent was large, and the sea could do nothing about it. But with the passage of time, the continent gradually split into tricky islands due to successive disasters, and on the other hand, the sea area was gradually expanding.

When the sea accumulates sufficient power, a big wave will come. How could the shattered islands of the Prehistoric World withstand that? They would directly get submerged.

"It is estimated that if the Prehistoric World shatters once or twice more, Chaos will fully form, swallowing up the Three Realms in one fell swoop. Even the All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds will not be able to avoid disaster."

"No, that’s not right. The power of the Prehistoric World is constantly weakening, but the power of Chaos is continuously strengthening. If it continues like this, even if there is no major calamity, the Prehistoric World will sooner or later collapse and be engulfed by Chaos."

"The Immeasurable Kalpa mentioned by Daizu is probably like this. Chaos surges like sea waves, inundating and destroying the Prehistoric World, causing everything to return to Chaos. Then, the Saints will be born, rebuilding Heaven and Earth amidst Chaos, and creation will take place again."

After silently calculating for a while, Jiang Chen realized that the Prehistoric World won’t last much longer. If it does not change soon, it will be swallowed up by Chaos.

"If I can foresee this, then those Great Divine Transcendents certainly can too. Moreover, they’re definitely even more anxious than I am and must be looking for ways to change this situation. In that case, why should I worry? Even if the sky falls, it would still be held up by the tall ones, for now, it is not my turn to worry about it."

The strength you possess determines the type of challenges you can overcome. Although Jiang Chen was aware of the impending crisis in the Chaos World, his current strength was far from sufficient and his myriad ideas would be of no assistance.

Under such circumstances, it would be wiser for him to focus on matters at hand, strive to improve his cultivation, and aim to become a Quasi-Saint as soon as possible. It was never too late to save the world.

If the Chaos World was truly destroyed, even the immensely powerful Great Divine Transcendents could not escape their downfall. Therefore, they would undoubtedly be unwilling to see Heaven and Earth devoured by Chaos.

As for the Saints, they would surely not want to see the demise of the Chaos World either. While Heaven and Earth’s destruction wouldn’t lead to their downfall, they acknowledged that any new world they might create would certainly fail to match up to the magnificence of the Chaos World.

In the Chaos World, they could see a glimmer of hope to transcend the Realm of Primordial Chaos. However, in a world of their own making, they could not foresee any further progression.

Whether it be the Great Divine Transcendents or the Saints, they all agreed on the necessity of preventing the Chaos World from destruction. Their differences lied merely in the methods they chose to save the world.

This was a clash of ideologies.

...

...

In the midst of Chaos, there was no orientation and no passage of time. Everything that could be seen in this place was enveloped in void and chaotic nothingness.

Following the Quantitative Calamity and Investiture of the Gods, the five holy wars resulted in the fragmentation of the Chaos World. Enraged, Hongjun Daizu banished all the Saints beyond Heaven and Earth, forbidding them from setting foot in the Three Realms. Since then, the Six Saints had been residing distantly in the Chaos outside Heaven, refraining from concerning themselves with the affairs of the Three Realms, unless there was a significant issue.

Although Jiang Chen knew that Golden Turtle Island was located in the Chaos beyond Heaven, he had no idea about its exact location. The boundless Chaos was vast and endless. It would be no easy task to find a specific place without any coordinates.

"Upper Qing Divine Symbol, rise!"

Almost instantly, Jiang Chen put forward the Upper Qing Divine Symbol. It blossomed with a faint clear light, as if it was in contact with some formidable existence.

In a short while, the clear light emanating from the Upper Qing Divine Symbol contracted abruptly, transforming into an escaping beam of light that sped off towards the distance.

Observing this, Jiang Chen hastily followed. The Upper Qing Divine Symbol was a treasure born alongside the Upper Qing Saints, and it was linked to him inseparably. By following the Upper Qing Divine Symbol, he would be able to locate the whereabouts of the Upper Qing Saints.

With the Chaos being boundless and endless, Jiang Chen had no idea how long he had been following the Upper Qing Divine Symbol. However, at some point, a streak of clear light began to appear before his eyes.

Without any hesitation, Jiang Chen immediately struck out, tearing through the Chaos and heading towards the direction of the light.

The clear light was extremely dazzling, expanding outwards like ripples and illuminating the murky Chaos. Jiang Chen broke through the Chaos and arrived at this location, where he could see a massive island shaped like a golden turtle floating within the clear light.

The light that illuminated the Chaos was emanating from this island.

"Such formidable aura, so this is where Golden Turtle Island originated from? I always thought that Golden Turtle Island was an island shaped like a golden turtle, but it seems I was mistaken. It is an island being held aloft by a golden turtle."

In Jiang Chen’s perception, the enormous Golden Turtle Island was far from being a mere island - it was a giant golden turtle. The massive energy it radiated was so powerful that it dispersed the Chaos around it.

Heavenly and Earthly Species that were born from the flesh and blood of Wilderness species and Chaos Demigods were, in terms of strength, superior to even the Fierce Beasts. For instance, the Ancient Era’s Mystic Turtle that could transform its limbs into pillars, standing erect between Heaven and Earth.

"The power of the Saints is truly unimaginable, even capable of subduing such beings." There was no exaggeration that Jiang Chen was no match for this golden turtle.

It was incredibly strong indeed!
