Saint Emperor Devourer of Heaven

The feeling of being impacted by reality was still incredibly intense the second time I passed through the barrier.

Looking at the inside of the barrier from the outside is completely different from being inside it.

Inside the barrier, one sees a boundless world and an incredibly high sky.

The space here is astonishingly solid, and the gravity is terrifying.

Jun Wuxie could feel the special order here, but he didn't feel repelled. Instead, he felt a sense of intimacy.

He could feel that the order here seemed to have a strange affection for him.

His body was glowing, radiating boundless and brilliant light.

The Marrow Cleansing Divine Tree was right in front, only five or six hundred meters away. It towered high into the sky, its branches and leaves lush, bearing an astonishing number of fruits.

Beneath the Marrow Cleansing Divine Tree, the area where it was rooted was all five-colored soil, permeated with a special primordial aura.

Jun Wuxie walked towards the Marrow Cleansing Divine Tree, facing the brilliant sun.

As he continued to go deeper, he found that there was still five or six hundred meters to go. The sense of reality became stronger and stronger, causing him to feel an urge to rush forward at all costs, never wanting to turn back.

At this moment, he felt an anomaly in his body.

The anomaly came from a piece of copper covered in green copper rust. It was trembling slightly, and the mysterious ancient characters on it had a faint glow.

This was the piece of green copper fragment that he and Ling Qingyu had accidentally obtained in the extraterrestrial ruins, which had cut Ling Qingyu's foot at the time.

They had studied it at the time and felt that the green copper piece was extraordinary, but they didn't know what it was for. After putting it away, they didn't pay attention to it anymore.

Who would have thought that today, in this special world, the green copper piece would actually react. This was the first time an anomaly had occurred since Jun Wuxie obtained it!

He sacrificed it and placed it in the palm of his hand.

The green copper piece trembled slightly. When the sunlight shone on it, all the mottled green copper rust flakes fell off, and the ancient characters on it became brighter and clearer.

At the same time, another object in Jun Wuxie's body also showed an anomaly.

It was actually the Book of Life and Death!

This made him feel very shocked and surprised.

He didn't understand why the Book of Life and Death would have a special reaction in this world.

He sacrificed the Book of Life and Death, and it automatically opened under the sunlight, page after page.

Finally, when it turned to a certain page at the back, the originally blank page suddenly shone with dazzling light, and dense Dao patterns emerged, exuding an unspeakable Dao rhythm.

The light of the Dao patterns was projected onto the green copper piece, causing the characters on the green copper piece to suddenly burst out with strong light, all of which shot into Jun Wuxie's brow and imprinted in the depths of his sea of consciousness.

He didn't recognize those characters at first, but at this moment, as they were imprinted in his mind, a large amount of information poured out.

"Innate Chaos True Scripture?"

Jun Wuxie accepted the information. The amount of information was very large, but he found that such a large amount of information was not all the content of this Innate Chaos True Scripture.

Not only was it not complete, but it was only a very incomplete fragment.

"It seems to be a special secret method for refining each domain, but it's a pity that it's too incomplete. So it seems that the green copper piece and the Book of Life and Death are both related to the Chaos Body?"

Jun Wuxie looked at the green copper and the Book of Life and Death in his hand, and thought of the incomplete secret method he had obtained. The word 'Innate' was actually in front of Chaos!

"Impossible… Could it be a weapon fragment left by the Innate Chaos Body of the Beginningless Era? Then what is he doing with this Book of Life and Death?"

Jun Wuxie couldn't understand. How powerful was the Innate Chaos Body? That was the supreme existence.

How could such an existence be related to the Book of Life and Death of the Netherworld Hell?

He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He felt that this kind of speculation could not be explained and could not convince himself to believe it.

He believed that the green copper piece was related to the Innate Chaos Body. This was still convincing, after all, the Innate Chaos True Scripture was engraved on it, which was a special secret method of the Chaos Body.

But what about the Book of Life and Death?

What were the Dao patterns on it, and how could they produce such a resonance with the green copper piece?

Thinking of Aunt You's emphasis on the Book of Life and Death, his heart was full of fog. What exactly was the origin of this thing?

"Aunt You!"

Jun Wuxie planned to ask Suzaku.

Suzaku's figure instantly appeared in front of him.

Jun Wuxie looked in horror at Suzaku's body, which was also dissolving and being obliterated.

How could this be possible?

Aunt You was a Heavenly Emperor!

Suzaku looked at this world and let out a long sigh. Suzaku's divine flames lit up on her body, and the trend of her body dissolving stopped.

"Aunt You, what's going on? Why are you also…"

Jun Wuxie stepped forward and grabbed Suzaku's hand, his heart filled with shock.

Suzaku sighed again and stared at him with deep golden eyes, without saying a word for a long time.

"Aunt You, why are you looking at me like that?"

Jun Wuxie felt uncomfortable being looked at like this.

"Young Master, give the green copper piece and the Book of Life and Death to Aunt You."

Suzaku reached out her hand, and Jun Wuxie put the things in her hand.

Suzaku closed her palm, incorporating the green copper and the Book of Life and Death into the world within her palm, completely severing the connection between them and Jun Wuxie.

"So that's how it is…"

Suzaku looked at Jun Wuxie and let out such a sigh.

"Aunt You, what's going on? What do you want to say?"

Jun Wuxie was confused.

"Young Master, do you know what kind of world this is?"

Jun Wuxie shook his head to indicate that he didn't know.

"Actually, Aunt You doesn't know either."

Jun Wuxie: …

"Aunt You can't be sure, but she can roughly guess that this should be the world of the Beginningless Era."

"What? The Beginningless Era? Aunt You means that we have now traveled through the river of time and returned to the Beginningless Era?"

"Of course not."

Suzaku indicated that it was not a return to the Beginningless Era, but that this special world was the world of the Beginningless Era.

"I still don't understand."

Jun Wuxie shook his head.

"Young Master just grabbed Aunt You's hand, didn't you notice anything unusual?"

"Ah?"

Jun Wuxie was stunned for a moment, and then stepped forward to grab Suzaku's hand, carefully feeling it, and his expression changed drastically.

"See the problem?"

Jun Wuxie nodded and asked why this was so. When he held Aunt You's hand, he had a very unreal feeling. Although there was a touch, he felt that he was not holding a real person.

"Young Master, feel yourself."

Jun Wuxie grabbed his arm as instructed, and the feeling was completely different. The sense of reality was very strong, and his voice trembled, "How could this be…"

"Illusion and reality, perhaps all the living beings in this world, from ancient times to the present, are just dreams and bubbles. Even the Heavenly Emperor may perish when the bubbles burst."

"Aunt You, stop speaking in riddles. What's going on?"

Jun Wuxie realized that this matter might be very serious, otherwise Aunt You wouldn't have shown such an expression and said such words.

Suzaku was silent for a moment. She thought about it and felt that she should let him know, and then she opened her mouth and told the story slowly.

She said that when she came into contact with the Book of Life and Death in the Lower Realm, she and Qingxue had already begun to suspect.

Later, Ye Qingxue went to the Beginningless Era and discovered many secrets.

She was injured in the Beginningless Era because she entered a broken True World space similar to this one, and encountered the initial generation of the Abyss Plague Virus inside.

"Broken True World space?"

Jun Wuxie was a little confused, "What is a broken True World space?"

"True World space is the space of the real world, you listen to Aunt You first…"

Suzaku said that Ye Qingxue discovered many secrets in the Beginningless Era, including the secrets about the reality and illusion that they had suspected before.

It's just that it's still impossible to draw a conclusion.

Today, everything here shows that the previous speculation was correct. The True World has long been broken, and now only various fragmented spaces are left, scattered in the myriad worlds of the illusory world.

"Aunt You is saying that the world we live in, whether it is the Lower Realm, the Upper Realm, the Godly Ancient World, or other worlds, are all illusory?"

Jun Wuxie could not understand, nor could he accept it.

How could it be illusory? His experiences of life and growth were clearly so real and the feelings so deep.

There is happiness and joy, human suffering, and joys and sorrows in the world. How could these all be illusory?

"Young Master, I know it's hard for you to accept, but the facts are roughly like this. The real world was broken in a certain era of the Beginningless Era, and no one knows what happened in that era."

Suzaku said that after the True World was broken, it is not known how the illusory world appeared. Perhaps someone used great divine powers to reflect all living beings and illuminate the ancient times, or perhaps an incredible existence entered a dream, and the myriad worlds are just illusions in the dream.

If it is a dream, then the endless years may only be a short moment for the existence that created the dream. When will the dreamer wake up, and when will the heavens be destroyed.

Jun Wuxie listened, unable to accept it in his heart. This statement sounded too fantastic!

"But Aunt You, why don't I feel uncomfortable in this so-called broken True World space? On the contrary, I feel that the order here is very close to me."

"According to Aunt You and the princess's speculation, Young Master may be related to the person who reflects the illusory heavens, or to the person who dreams the heavens."

Suzaku looked at him very seriously.

"I…"

Jun Wuxie opened his mouth, unable to speak, and his heart was hit by unparalleled impact.

“So, as long as the young master is still in the illusory world, as long as the young master hasn't truly died, this illusory world won't perish. As for the specifics of the truth, we'll slowly uncover it. Perhaps we can perfectly merge the illusory and the real. No matter what, Aunt You and the princess won't give up, and I believe the young master won't give up either.”

“Of course, I won't give up…” Jun Wuxie nodded, calming down, and said, “Aunt You, if that's the case, how did the dark creatures come to be? The people of manifestation shouldn't be able to manifest dark creatures, right?”

The Vermilion Bird was silent for a moment, then said, “Perhaps the Dark Progenitor and the first batch of dark creatures came from a real world in the past. The later dark creatures are their descendants, bred in the illusory world. That's why the Great Daos and energies they cultivate can always suppress the creatures of the Bright Universe.”

“If that's the case, what is the purpose of the dark creatures entering the illusory world? They are launching dark turmoil and apocalyptic torrents everywhere in the illusory world. The slaughter is only serving their ultimate goal! According to this, they may be trying to seize all the origins of the heavens!”

Jun Wuxie stated that after seizing all the origins of the heavens, the illusory world would completely collapse, and everything would cease to exist.

Their targeting of the illusory world seems to be related to people or events in the real world.

“Their ultimate goal, could it be to deal with the person who created the illusory heavens? If that's the case, the situation in the Beginningless Era is worse than imagined. I don't know what exactly happened…”

Jun Wuxie finally understood why he was a congenitally fate-indeterminate person.

Because in all the heavens and myriad realms, only he possesses real attributes, while others have illusory attributes.

“I must uncover the truth and transform these illusory heavens into a real world!”

Jun Wuxie couldn't accept that if the illusory heavens suddenly disappeared one day, then everything he possessed would vanish without a trace, and he would drift between the shattered True Realms, with the world in desolate silence.

“Now it seems that the master chose the young master as the inheritor, not only because the young master is a congenitally fate-indeterminate person, but also because of the young master's connection with the person behind these heavens.”

The Vermilion Bird marveled at how terrifying his background was.

Jun Wuxie took back the green copper fragment from the Vermilion Bird. He shook the green copper in his hand and said, “If I'm not mistaken, the existence behind these heavens, the Congenital Chaos Body is one of them, otherwise there wouldn't be so many coincidences.”

“Perhaps, that possibility exists. After all, there are too few legends about the Congenital Chaos Body. It has always been difficult to find valuable clues about him.”

The Vermilion Bird stated that this person was too mysterious. Even when Ye Qingxue returned to the Beginningless Era, she didn't find any new information about the Congenital Chaos Body.

Speaking of which, how could the deeds of such a powerful person, an existence who left behind supreme legends in the Beginningless Era, suddenly stop, and then there was nothing afterward?

“It seems my origin is very mysterious.”

Jun Wuxie let out a deep sigh.

He thought of his family. In the Godly Ancient World, he only had a mother and never had a father.

He really wanted to ask his mother about his father, but he was especially afraid that asking would hurt his mother and tear open the wounds in her heart, so he never asked.

The Xiao family in the Lower Realm was just his adoptive father, who helped his mother adopt him to repay her life-saving grace.

His mother did this to hide from the eyes and ears of certain people in the Godly Ancient family.

“When I return to the Godly Ancient World, I must ask about my background. This matter is no small matter, after all, too much is connected to me…”

Jun Wuxie thought to himself, then looked at the Marrow Cleansing Divine Tree and said to the Vermilion Bird, “Aunt You, when I looked at this Marrow Cleansing Divine Fruit from the outside, I thought it was Saint-grade Rank Nine, but when I came inside, I couldn't tell its rank. What's going on?”

“It must be affected by the broken space. This fruit is indeed Saint-grade Rank Nine, and its effect is astonishing. Even if you take one, it can accelerate bloodline evolution, increase the intensity of talent growth, and break through the limits of the physical body in a short period of time.”

The Vermilion Bird pointed to the treetops and said, “Young master, do you see those especially brilliant fruits? Those are the highest quality fruit kings, and their effect will be even better. With this Marrow Cleansing Divine Tree and the tree full of Marrow Cleansing Divine Fruits, it will be much easier to cultivate the young master's forces. Aunt You suggests that the young master directly dig up the divine tree by its roots.”

“This…”

Jun Wuxie was dumbfounded and smiled bitterly, “The plants, trees, soil, and so on in this real world are quite abnormal. It must have been fragments of a very high-level world that were left behind. I simply can't pull it up…”

“Who told you to pull it up directly? Young master, can't you dig slowly?”

Jun Wuxie was really speechless when he heard this. He said this because he wanted Aunt You to help, but Aunt You told him to dig slowly.

The Vermilion Bird smiled lightly and said, “Alright, young master, don't frown. This is the real world. Aunt You is afraid that something will happen later, which would be a pity for this divine tree and divine fruit.”

“Alright, I have to start working hard.”

Jun Wuxie was helpless. Such a big tree, he didn't know how long it would take to dig.

But thinking about it, since he had to dig for Five-Colored Soil anyway, digging the tree along the way was fine, it would just increase the digging time many times over.

He rolled up his sleeves, condensed a golden blood energy hoe, and started working. The soil here was really too tight and too heavy. With his strength, after digging for less than an hour, he was already covered in sweat, and his clothes and hair were soaked.

The Vermilion Bird stepped forward and gently wiped his sweat.

Outside the barrier, the Beast Kings and Bird Kings naturally couldn't see the Vermilion Bird. They only saw Jun Wuxie digging frantically inside, and they were all dumbfounded. What was he doing? Could it be that he wanted to dig up the entire divine tree? How long would that take?

“Do you think this guy used to be a farmer from the countryside? Look at how skilled he is at digging. He looks like a professional.”

The Black Ox King said.

“Just mock him. When he comes out, we'll tell him what you said and see if he'll give you a few fruits.”

The Wolf King chuckled, and the other Beast Kings and Bird Kings echoed.

They had a really good impression of that human youth who was going to actively give them Marrow Cleansing Fruits.
