Translator: Fate Translation Checker: Silavin Gu Changge was extremely cautious when he took the need to change the entire ancient history and influence the subsequent flow of time, even the future generation, into consideration. Despite having a plan in mind, he refrained from implementing it immediately. What he lacked now were witnesses and the corresponding means of spreading the mythology. Otherwise, even if he made up such legends, it would be difficult to verify them and get future generations to believe if no one witnessed or knew about them. So-called ‘miracles’ naturally required witnesses. As Gu Changge walked along this world, he crossed one continent after another, passing through many desolate and barren lands. After the appearance of the Dark Gap in this universe, although there were slight changes in the environment, the essence of the world and the life-extending matters were extremely abundant, making it suitable for cultivators to cultivate here. Numerous ancient and mystic mountains stood tall and boundless. There were also ancient trees that had survived for millions of years, which was even longer than the lifespan of cultivators, covering the sky. Of course, the number of cultivators drastically decreased after the Dark Gap. Even Gu Changge couldn’t find many traces of cultivators; instead, there were numerous ferocious beasts with low intelligence and could only distinguish others’ nature. After the Dark Gap, those terrifying beasts with formidable strength were annihilated due to the impact of the residue aura of the Demon Lord, leaving behind only barbaric beasts whose divine consciousness hadn’t awoken. These beasts possessed terrifying bloodlines but had extremely low cultivation levels. Nevertheless, their long lifespans allowed them to accumulate a large amount of the spiritual energy from the universe. [These beasts with undeveloped divine consciousness naturally cannot cultivate using the spiritual energy of the universe. There are hardly any cultivators in this period… It seems that it will take some time for evolution to take place. Perhaps I should leave behind a cultivation method?] Gu Changge thought with a frown on his face, but he ultimately gave up on this plan. According to the normal trajectory of time, it would take a long time for these barbaric beasts to awaken their divine consciousness. If he were to guide them before the supposed time, it could cause unimaginable consequences. After all, all he wanted to do was leave behind a rumour in this era and minimise the impact on future generations. Otherwise, with Gu Changge’s current cultivation, he would definitely not be able to withstand the terrifying backlash and causality throughout the entire ancient history. Even the Celestial Boat of Creation would shatter. That was, unless he chose to stay in this era. [Now that I think about it, the best approach would be to first find suitable ancient cities and locate the oldest cultivators.] As he walked along one star filled with life to another, he made ripples throughout the entire world when he let his divine sense sweep over. Despite being suppressed by the world, and affected by the reversal of the River of Time’s causality, able to only exert less than ten percent of his power, his might still far surpassed that of a regular True Daoist. In this current era, cultivators’ strength could not reach great heights. The true experts had already been eradicated during the period of the Dark Gap. The cultivators who survived until now were either survivors from that time or individuals who discovered cultivation methods through some ancient inscriptions or relics, and followed the path of their predecessors. [Oh? What dense Life Force. I’m confident there are cultivators there. In fact, there might even be traces of the legacies of various Sects or Families here.] Gu Changge had suddenly noticed a nearby Star Territory. Judging from the aura, that Star Territory permeating with a sense of desolation and vastness appeared extremely ancient. Countless immense ancient stars filled with life adorning it gently rotated, exuding an incredibly rich and expansive Life Force. He hurriedly rushed towards it, his figure crossing the starry sky in an instant. For Gu Changge, it would be sufficient as long as he could find a Star with cultivators. He wasn’t asking for much. Boom! A terrifying aura surged and tumultuous energy erupted, illuminating the entire Star Territory with blazing radiance. Any living being with divine consciousness could feel this dreadful fluctuation at that moment, and when they did, they felt a tremor from their very souls before they prostrated themselves on the ground. Within the stars ahead, a bamboo forest shrouded in dense Celestial Mist came into view. Many ancient cultivators were the first to sense that kind of disturbance. A profound astonishment and apprehension appeared on everyone’s faces then. “How could such an aura appear in this era?” Within this mist-shrouded bamboo forest were many living beings that had long been extinct in later generations. There were Qilin cubs, young White Tigers, and Celestial Phoenix chicks spreading their wings and soaring. Numerous Celestial Ganoderma Fungi and Sacred Herbs also grew in the mountains and cliffs, untouched by anyone. However, the most notable presence was deep within the bamboo forest. … There stood a bamboo house built amidst the sea of clouds. Inside sat an elderly man with snow-white hair, his body incredibly hunched. As if he were nearing his last moments, his eyes were clouded with a profound haziness. Surrounding the bamboo house were many cultivators as well as some ferocious beasts with divine consciousness, all quietly seated as if they were listening to the white-haired old man’s explanation of the principles of cultivation. “Elder Cang, what exactly is that aura? It’s too terrifying…” “Didn’t you say that there were no more supreme experts in this world after the Era of the Great Annihilation? The aura just now is almost identical to the descriptions of those supreme experts in the ancient texts,” A young child with innate divine light looked up and inquisitively asked the white-haired old man, his face full of curiosity. “This kind of aura is too dreadful. It’s as if it could easily destroy our entire star,” A young man with a Dao Sword strapped to his back also asked in astonishment as he respectfully sought answers from the elderly man ahead. A Celestial Phoenix fluttered its wings and flew over from a distance. Its body radiated with a spiritual glow as it transformed into a beautiful young girl in feathered clothes. After she landed in front of the white-haired old man, she spoke in a clear voice, “Grandfather Cang, do you think it’s possible that the supreme experts from the Era of the Great Annihilation are still alive in this world?” The elderly man named Grandfather Cang’s gaze suddenly became somewhat nostalgic upon hearing this. He coughed a few times before shaking his head and replying, “It’s impossible. During the Era of the Great Annihilation, all the supreme experts were exterminated. Even the greatest Masters could not have survived. The aura just now might have come from beyond the sky…” As a survivor of the Era of the Great Annihilation, even surviving after the Dark Gap, he was well aware of the hidden secrets of that ancient history. Whether it was Immortals or True Daoists, they were all mercilessly eliminated by the Will of Heaven. “If it really came from beyond the sky… would they know the cause of the Era of the Great Annihilation? But if he truly is one of the legendary supreme experts, he probably wouldn’t bother with insignificant ants like us.” Many cultivators within the bamboo forest began discussing and gazing at the spot where the radiant light had vanished just moments ago. “Grandfather Cang, I would like to go and take a look at that place. I want to see for myself what those supreme experts described in the ancient texts are really like.” A delicate voice came from the young girl in the feathered clothes who was a Celestial Phoenix just a moment ago. She was determined, and her eyes were clear and bright as they shimmered with a hint of brilliance. “In that case, go and have a look. Normally, a powerful being like that wouldn’t pay attention to a young Celestial Phoenix like you. You might have been captured if we were in olden times, but now, even though your bloodline is strong, you can hardly cultivate now. There is just no… avenue to.” The white-haired old man shook his head with a sigh regretfully. The severance of cultivation methods was not only due to the fall of the supreme experts and the legacies of Forces. Even for some races with powerful bloodlines, the inheritance of cultivation methods inscribed within their blood and souls was also severed by the Will of Heaven. They couldn’t possibly continue to cultivate along the path followed by their predecessors because of that. Thus, they could only wait for the suppression of the Will of Heaven to dissipate before they could probably find the true means to solve the situation.
