Chapter 1169: The Same Kind
Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios
Chaos!
The entire Outer God Universe was in a massive battle, and countless planets were destroyed!
The Outer Gods and Elder Gods were different in the first place. Previously, they might have been fighting on the same side to stop Obscure Gate, but this alliance broke down once they overthrew this enemy.
The fight for the Heart of the Universe was also intensifying.
After all, the aura that Obscure Gate was about to become the Lord of the Universe had spread in all directions of the universe, making the Outer Gods see the hope of promotion!
"In this aspect, although Three-Faced Key has the most potential, it is also everyone's target. It likely won't be able to achieve its desire.
"However, none of this has anything to do with me anymore."
Fang Yuan came to the edge of the universe and gently raised his hand.
A huge hole appeared in the Outer God Universe, revealing the Great Cosmological Abyss behind it.
The next moment, all the Outer Gods in this universe sensed the Astral Serpent tearing open the boundary membrane and entering the Great Cosmological Abyss.
They paused for a fraction of a second before once again descending into endless fighting.
...
"Great Cosmological Abyss! Great Cosmological Abyss!"
Within the Great Cosmological Abyss, rainbow light converged to form a channel.
Fang Yuan was inside it. The fragments of Obscure Gate and Three-Faced Key appeared in his hand.
They were both born in the Great Cosmological Abyss and were infinitely mysterious Dao Ancestors by nature.
"The power of the Great Cosmological Abyss... creating something out of nothing?"
Fang Yuan smiled slightly, thinking of his Dream Master techniques.
For ordinary Dream Masters to create something out of nothing, they had to pay a price and abide by some laws of conservation. He realized later that the Mental Demon Realm was paying the bigger end of it.
However, the Great Cosmological Abyss had nothing in the first place. How did it come about?
"I might be able to touch the realm above Dao Ancestor if I can create something out of nothing in the Great Cosmological Abyss..."
Fang Yuan closed his eyes and went into a state of deep cultivation.
Thousands of years passed by in the blink of an eye.
Although traveling in the Great Cosmological Abyss was a gamble with your life on the line for ordinary Demon Gods, there was no danger for an Outer God.
From Fang Yuan's point of view, the dangers that had caused the Netherheaven Demon Gods to die were nothing but child's play.
After all, he was not merely an Outer God but a powerhouse who grasped the power of five Dao Fruits!
Finally, after he traversed one danger after another, the outline of a certain large universe slowly emerged.
Excitement appeared on Fang Yuan's face.
He had finally reached the Huaxia Universe that he had been longing for.
"Let's go in!"
Fang Yuan tore open the boundary membrane and entered the Huaxia Universe.
In that instant, an aura appeared, as if a loving mother was welcoming her wandering son home.
This warmth and nostalgia touched Fang Yuan's Dao Heart.
"As expected... This is where my roots lie!" He sighed as he gazed at the universe regressing into void.
The regression of a universe into void was not a normal destruction but a complete annihilation without any possibility of rebirth!
Currently, the interior of the Huaxia Universe was very similar to that of the Great Cosmological Abyss outside the boundary.
Of course, because the universe was still in the process of regressing into void, there were residual energy fluctuations and the concept of time and space, but they were also constantly dissipating.
"The entire universe was destroyed just like that?"
Fang Yuan let his spiritual will run free, unable to believe his eyes.
It continued to roam throughout the universe, searching for clues.
"A universe in the process of regressing into void is rather rare material as well..."
Fang Yuan had been comprehending in the Great Cosmological Abyss for the past thousands of years, and with the fragments of Three-Faced Key and Obscure Gate also as reference materials, he had made faint progress.
Regardless of the cause and effect, it was rather good timing to have reached a universe in the process of regressing into void.
After all, it was difficult to comprehend much out of the Great Cosmological Abyss that had nothing. A universe that was gradually becoming like the Great Cosmological Abyss gave him more information to work with.
"Great Cosmological Abyss... An abyss... A deep chasm of nothingness... Could everything be empty and void? There's nothing at the end of cultivation, just like there's nothingness at the ends of worlds and universes?"
Fang Yuan wandered in the universe, looking at the gradually thinning chaos, thinking slightly sadly.
"Eh?" At that moment, the corner of his eye seemed to catch familiar light.
"That's... the light of the Huaxia civilization?!"
The light was pure and vast, and it had even helped him before, so he could not be wrong about it.
Seeing the light, he immediately chased after it.
"That's right... This light helped me all those years ago when I was battling against the Abominable Lord. I might not have survived otherwise. Perhaps the entire Huaxia Universe collapsed after I achieved Dao Fruit?"
With some doubt in mind, Fang Yuan suddenly found that he had arrived at a ruin.
Tut Tut!
He stepped on the only piece of land in this entire universe.
It was not large, merely a hundred thousand square kilometers, suspended somewhere in this universe, following strange laws.
Fang Yuan believed that if it were not for him following the guiding light of the Huaxia civilization, even if the chosen ones like Clement had this light, they would have never been able to find it.
"A fragment of a certain world? It must be unusual for it to still be intact!"
Fang Yuan looked over it, and all he saw was a desolate piece of desert.
Without a sun in its full glory, the temperature of this wasteland was extremely low, and it was almost impossible for any living being to survive here.
"Seems like... that war all those years back was really fierce!"
Fang Yuan searched for a long time before he dug out a piece of a white jade pillar from the yellow sand. He was speechless.
"Did they... truly all die together? The Dao Ancestors of the Huaxia Universe and the intruders?"
Unknowingly, he came to the center of the wasteland and leaned over.
The faint light of the Huaxia civilization gathered here into a very, very small spark.
The spark suddenly burst larger when he touched it.
"The heavens are in motion ceaselessly; the enlightened exert themselves constantly!"
"Civilization does not perish; the brilliance is everlasting!"
"I shall devote my life and blood to my motherland!"
...
Traces of remnant spiritual wills hit Fang Yuan's heart.
"These are... the remaining thoughts of the surviving Dao Ancestors? The final fire seed of the Huaxia civilization? Wait a minute!"
Fang Yuan was shocked to find that a Dao Ancestor like him with roots in Huaxia seemed to be the condition necessary to ignite this fire seed. The fire seed had changed dramatically after he touched it.
A heavy white light converged in his hand, then rushed into the sky continuously and scattered around the Great Cosmological Abyss.
Many faint responses came from all over.
The lights of civilization gathered from all over the Great Cosmological Abyss, making the fire seed in his hand continue to grow, almost turning it into a round sun.
Fang Yuan was startled as he immediately recognized the origins of these lights of civilization. "These are... the worlds that have been influenced by the Huaxia civilization?"
He had actually experienced several of these worlds that had been influenced by the Huaxia civilization.
As long as this influence still existed, even if the Huaxia Universe was regressing into void, they would continuously send support.
"Is that what is meant by civilization does not perish, the brilliance is everlasting?" Fang Yuan was lost in thought.
Obviously, the former Huaxia Universe must have been even more terrifying than the Outer God Universe.
Moreover, it was constantly expanding, sending out the brilliance of civilization, influencing the worlds in other universes.
At this time, when the Huaxia Universe was in great trouble, these worlds that had been helped immediately started to return the favor and sent their support.
The power of a world might be small, but how amazing would the lights of civilization that gathered from these worlds and universes like grains of sand in a desert be?
"If it were to fill a universe in its infancy, it would immediately create a true Huaxia civilization universe... What terrifying infection!" Fang Yuan could not help being amazed. "This is... the last hope of this universe! Civilization does not perish; the brilliance is everlasting!"
He vaguely understood the Dao of this civilization.
Radiate to as many universes as possible and not only be confined to a single universe alone.
"So... perhaps the Huaxia Universe won against the foreign forces? Instead of dying together?" Fang Yuan rubbed his chin. "It's just that the Dao Ancestors and the population have already transferred to other Huaxia worlds? But why did they leave behind this seed of civilization?"
He seemed to sense the bad taste of a certain existence and shook his head. "Is this to inspire junior traversers like me? Or to give me a guiding direction?"
He did not know why, but he could feel a trace of teasing from the other party. Perhaps they wanted to see him devastated, thinking that the Huaxia Universe had perished?!
"No matter what, I have to keep this civilization fire seed and create a new universe... The Founder of the Universe? Feels somewhat like the path of the Lord of the Universe..."
...
"This brilliance?"
Somewhere in the universe, Netherheaven God Clement was exploring when he saw a ubiquitous, bright, and vast white light and seemed to feel the might of a civilization. He fell to his knees and shed tears.
"So powerful... So brilliant..." he murmured, not knowing what to say, feeling as though he was thoroughly baptized from inside out.
"Little bug, uncivilized barbarian, how dare you receive the brilliance of my heavenly civilization?" A frivolous voice came. "I originally left you alone to see if there was anything strange going on, but to think... I actually missed the fire seed of the entire civilization!"
"Who's there?" Clement was shocked.
He thought that this universe had no other life forms, but now, it seemed his every move had been under the surveillance of someone.
"Who am I?" With a contemptuous voice, a figure slowly emerged.
His face was smooth like jade, his hair was tied up, and he was wearing traditional Han clothing.
With his hands behind his back, he had a proud expression. "Being a lone stranger in a foreign land, I didn't think that... another traverser besides me could attain such achievements!"
