Chapter 182
"Isn’t that incredibly magical?"
"And the final result is what you see here."
"These cultivators truly met a miserable end, and several of them were even skinned alive."
"From now on, I should participate less in these tomb explorations, too bizarre, and god knows what you will run into inside."
Codin shook his head, inhaling a sharp breath of cold air.
It actually just vanished directly, Adam’s brows furrowed tightly.
The situation felt even more suspicious now. However, with his current realm, there was nothing he could do about matters involving Saints.
"Brother, I see we are quite fated. How about we become sworn brothers?" Codin reached out to grab Adam’s arm, then leaned in to whisper, "Let me tell you a secret. Actually, that man who crippled the major factions with a single sword is my Sixth Brother!"
Adam said nothing.
Why was this fellow so obsessed with making sworn brothers?
He ignored Codin entirely and turned away from the crater, preparing to leave.
"Seventh Brother, where are you going? Wait for me!" Codin called out.
But then he watched Adam lift his foot and tap the ground lightly.
The entire earth began to tremble violently, the dirt surrounding the massive crater collapsed inward all at once, completely burying everything within and forming a simple, massive grave.
Returning to the earth to find peace.
Codin’s mouth hung wide open, he stared at Adam in utter astonishment, this was an expert!
Returning to the city, it was already evening.
Adam had changed his identity once again.
This time he assumed the appearance of a middle-aged man with half-white hair and a face full of deep wrinkles.
He booked an ordinary room, set up a heaven-concealing formation, then pulled several books from a storage bag.
The Saint’s Tomb incident had sounded a massive alarm for him once again, not enough strength, without enough strength, you would always be a pawn in the hands of those mighty figures.
He had been at the Proving the Dao realm for a long time now, having reached peak long ago.
In truth, he could have stepped into the Deity realm long before this, but he had suppressed it, because he wanted perfection, he wanted to construct his path to divinity upon the absolute best possible foundation.
Therefore, he planned to wait until he had soaked in the Deity Reincarnation Pool before breaking through.
This was also the reason many Dao Childs refused to break through, choosing instead to wait for the Heaven and Earth Upheaval, becoming a Deity was simple enough for them, but walking far down the path of divinity was another matter entirely.
Adam had already asked around on his way here. In the neighboring domain, there was a merchant guild called Basil that was short on porters, a guild dedicated to transporting supplies into the Heavenly Void Mystic Realm. It fit his requirements perfectly.
He planned to rest for the night, read some books, and set off first thing tomorrow morning.
Adam opened the first book in his hands.
There was an Ancient God, named Taiyi, titled Donghuang, the ruler of the Ancient Demon Heavenly Court, born nurtured by the primordial chaos.
The moment his eyes fell upon the first lines, Adam’s eyebrows shot upward.
Good heavens, this Book Saint’s collection was truly no simple matter.
Right from the start, it was diving into ancient secrets and forbidden mortal texts.
Before the current Heavenly Court, far back in the primordial era, there had been another Heavenly Court.
The Ancient Demon Heavenly Court, but because of the Great War of Demons, it ultimately collapsed, only then did the current Heavenly Court come to be.
For some unknown reason, the current Heavenly Court, likely to maintain its title of absolute orthodoxy, had decreed that all historical information regarding the Ancient Demon Heavenly Court be strictly forbidden from spreading.
Adam only knew about it because he had read extensively and gleaned a thing or two from the memories the system had shown him, otherwise, he would not have even known an Ancient Heavenly Court ever existed.
In ancient times, there was a Demon Heavenly Court, Donghuang Taiyi and his elder brother Di Jun jointly ruled it, possessing the boundless merit of ruling the world.
One day, for unknown reasons, the Magus Tribe’s Fire God Zhurong and Water God Gonggong engaged in a catastrophic battle, knocking down a mountain.
Following that, Di Jun’s ten sons violated the heavenly laws, plunging the primordial wildlands into absolute misery.
Because the ten suns appeared simultaneously and caused countless deaths, the Great Magus Kuafu grew dissatisfied and pursued the suns, ultimately burning to death from the heat.
After Kuafu was killed, the Great Magus Da Yi was enraged. Mobilizing the full strength of his tribe and utilizing various Magus secret techniques, he forged arrows and used the Sun-Shooting Bow to shoot down nine of the Golden Crows.
After Da Yi shot down the nine Golden Crows, he was schemed against by Zhunti and killed.
The conflict between the Magus and Demon factions intensified by the day.
The remaining Ten Ancestral Magi waged a catastrophic war against the Ancient Demon Heavenly Court. In the end, both sides suffered near-total annihilation, and both tribes began their inevitable decline.
Adam closed the book, and scene after scene of the primordial wildlands surfaced inside his mind.
Beneath that infinitely high, gray, and misty heaven, all things lost their color as heavenly fire streaked across the sky.
A supreme existence stood proudly above the void, his mysterious yellow hair blew wildly in the wind, a domineering Heavenly Dao Imperial Crest rested between his brows, he wore a robe adorned with the sun, moon, and stars, and hovering above his head was the Chaos Bell, establishing him in an innately invincible position.
He fought the many Ancestral Magi one by one in succession.
They fought until the heavens collapsed and the earth caved in, stripping the sun and moon of their light, his divine posture was peerlessly magnificent.
In the end, the man perished together with the Ancestral Magi.
[You have witnessed the life of Donghuang Taiyi. You are very focused, activating God-Tier Comprehension.]
[Your comprehension is God-Tier. You have comprehended the Chaos Primal Spirit: Great Sun Golden Flame!]
Adam took a sharp breath of air, his heart swelled with wild ecstasy.
