“Everybody knows what happened afterwards. The human race and the Demon tribe buried the ancient deities, even buried this period in history. No one knows how they achieved it, but it’s certain that the methods they used were disgraceful. In any case, the ancient deities times was finally over, and the antiquity times began. The antiquity times lasted a long time. Chaos and turmoil still pervaded the hollow during the initial period. Many macro worlds were constantly at war. The alliance between humans and demons came to an end with the finality of the ancient deities times. The tangled warfare began. In this long history, generations of experts were born on both sides. At the height of the war, the Devil Tribe came again. This invasion was almost a reversion of the invasion that happened in the ancient deities times. The human race and the Demon tribe once again allied against the Devil Realm. Fortunately, the war lasted less than a hundred thousand years. After fighting the Devil Tribe off again, both the human race and the Demon tribe were surprised to find that a new way of ruling the world had been formed before they knew it. This is the way of rule that continued to the end of the antiquity times, where the Earthly Immortal had the highest status. If you were an Earthly Immortal, you had the honor of an Emperor. However, only the 99 Emperors had the real power to rule the macro world. Although most of the Earthly Immortals had no interest in the struggle for power, many people wanted the thrones of the 99 Emperors for various reasons. So, the struggle for the thrones of the 99 Emperors never stopped in antiquity times. No one dared to mess with the Emperors in the top ten, like the Jade Emperor, the Thunder Emperor, and the Emperor of Moon Temple, but the other thrones were more or less fought over. It was not rare in antiquity times for an Emperor to be killed.” Qing Feng was a little helpless and sad at the mention of this matter. “The struggle for thrones lasted throughout the antiquity times, but beyond that two things happened that were most important to the Emperors. One was entering the Void Immortal Realm and the other was resisting the Devil Realm!”
“At the end of the day, the Void Immortal Realm is a point amongst the chaos of the beginning of the hollow in the Primordial Origin. It’s a s.p.a.ce similar to a macro world, but with more pneuma than all the other macro worlds combined. In addition, there is the ancient and primitive mystery of the hollow, revealing the essence of the hollow, which is most attractive. Unfortunately, even the ancient deities didn’t discover these secrets in the Void Immortal Realm. In ancient deities times, the Void Immortal Realm was controlled by the most powerful of the Divine lineages. Just like the secular macro world, they have their own ruling regions in the realm. They are divided into Five Divine Regions, namely Kunlun in the east, Eden in the west, Mount Olympus in the north, Sudarsana in the south and the most mysterious Purple Heaven Palace in the center.”
“Splat—!”
Hearing these familiar names, Zhou Bao could not help but spurt out a mouthful of tea, though with high cultivation and strength. “What? Is this the Void Immortal Realm? Why are these names like the division of the world in a fifth-rate fantasy novel?” he taunted in the heart.
“What’s the matter?” Qing Feng asked Zhou Bao quizzically after pausing for a moment. “Nothing, nothing. Go on, go on—!” Zhou Bao waved his hands.
“Along with the Five Divine Regions, there were a few small territories occupied by other G.o.ds. They could play a buffer role for the Divine Regions, and therefore these Divine Regions existed until the end of the ancient deities times. Thanks to the discovery of the Void Immortal Realm, the Devil Tribe was quickly resealed. In virtue of the rules and mysteries of the Void Immortal Realm, the ancient deities created Supreme Fairy Weapons, among which the most famous are the three Sacred Cities, the Sacred City of Origin, the Sacred City of Fate and the Sacred City of Termination. With the power of these three Sacred Cities, the ancient deities finally achieved victory. However, in the final battle, two of the Sacred Cities were destroyed, and the remaining Sacred City of Fate was badly damaged, leaving only part of the wreckage in the Void Immortal Realm. What puzzled me most is that, even though the two Sacred Cities were destroyed, there was still the Sacred City of Fate. It was impossible for human beings and demons to join hands and bury such powerful ancient deities. Even the Five Divine Regions of the Void Immortal Realm disappeared. Then the Fate Creator appeared!”
Qing Feng gave Zhou Bao a faint smile at the mention of the Fate Creator, “You must be familiar with the term ‘Fate Creator’, right?”
“Yes, of course. I’ve been to the Void Immortal Realm. Not the real one, but the remains of the Sacred City of Fate!”
“The ‘Fate Creator’ is a very strange term, that appeared in antiquity times. You know, the Innate Deity, the Primordial Demon, the Primordial Fierce Beast and the ancient deities were born with great power. Their power grows as they grow. Even without practice, they will have at least the same level of power as an Immortal in adulthood. For humans and demons, perception and power are crucial. But they acquire these instinctively, so they don’t pay as much attention to practice, to explore and study power as humans and demons do. Mankind and demons need help from outside for their practice. They need abundant essence of the world to grow and to obtain a strong power. Thus, they have a thorough study of power. At the end of the ancient deities times, some of the most powerful human beings and demons explored the essence of macro worlds and mastered the Power of Fate. They found that with this mysterious power they could manipulate a whole macro world and make it work for them. As a result, some of these people began to gather the Power of Fate from a macro world, refine Fairy Weapons of Fate and control the whole macro world. These people claimed to be the Fate Creators!
Fate Creators can utilize and comprehend the Power of Fate. With the help of the Power of Fate, some of them who had a higher state even understood all the mysteries of the macro world, and perfected the rules of their Self-universe, turning it into a complete macro world. Then they ascended into the Realm of Earthly Immortal and became the first Earthly Immortals. But they soon discovered that the ident.i.ty of Fate Creator was of little value. Their own macro world was more manageable than the others. So, some of them tried to integrate two macro worlds. Others gave up their own macro worlds, and even their Fairy Weapons of Fate. There were still others who had mastered the Fairy Weapons of Fate, but no matter what they did, they were unable to refine their own macro worlds. Their cultivation has been stuck at the peak of the Immortal. In order to make a breakthrough, they desperately tried to match with the Fairy Weapons of Fate, and finally gained power that was comparable to Earthly Immortals, but they also lost a lot of things. They are the Fate Creation Listeners.”
“Then why did they go into the Void Immortal Realm?”
“After becoming an Earthly Immortal, they still have a long way to go before they can set foot on the Celestial Immortal’s Way. And only in the Void Immortal Realm can they have the opportunity to comprehend the Celestial Immortal’s Way. In this hollow, you cannot perceive the rules of the Celestial Immortal’s Way. It’s certainly not easy to enter the Void Immortal Realm. In order to keep its mystery, ancient deities joined forces and sealed it, leaving only a pa.s.sage to the real Void Immortal Realm. This pa.s.sage is in the Heaven Realm World. That’s why the Heaven Realm World was the most powerful macro world and why the 99 Emperors were there!”
“But in the end, the Heaven Realm World declined!”
“Those with the highest power always fall. This is natural law, it’s not surprising!” Qing Feng said lightly, “The 99 Emperors were too overbearing. They controlled the pa.s.sage to the Void Immortal Realm and certainly offended many people. But, they were too mighty, so no one dared to fight them until the Necromancer’s Tribulation.” At this point, Qing Feng gave a sneer. “They were carried away by their arrogance. Eventually they got into trouble that they couldn’t afford!”
“Why can the Fate Creator enter the Void Immortal Realm at any time?”
“It isn’t the Void Immortal Realm. It is because of the Sacred City of Fate. The first comprehension of the Fate of the human and the Demon tribe on the Power of Fate took place in the later ancient deities times. It happened in the Sacred City of Fate in the battle with the Devil Tribe. The Power of Fate in every macro world is related to the Sacred City of Fate, so the city can connect with the Fate Creator. The Power of Fate is the most essential power between heaven and earth, and also one of the most fundamental powers in the Void Immortal Realm. Hence, a Fate Creator who has mastered the Power of Fate can resonate and feel with the Void Immortal Realm, and even enter the Void Immortal Realm. The Power of Fate is a key to becoming an Earthly Immortal. Without it, one cannot perfect one’s own macro world and turn it into a complete macro world. Therefore, comprehending the Power of Fate is the only way for an Immortal to become an Earthly Immortal. In antiquity times, if one’s cultivation had reached the top of the Immortal and he had a relations.h.i.+p with the Void Immortal Realm, he would be introduced to the Void Immortal Realm through the pa.s.sage to the Heaven Realm World. He could then gain the Power of Fate and break through!”
