Chapter 594: The Dark Abyss
Chapter 594: The Dark Abyss
Time flew by in the blink of an eye, and another four hundred world years had passed.
In the Great Xuan World, four thousand years had gone by since Chen Mu's departure. During this time, significant events had unfolded. The nine countries, once divided due to Chen Mu, had been in constant conflict, forming and breaking alliances, only to eventually reunify once more.
However, for Chen Mu, whether the Great Xuan World was unified or divided held little significance. With his current abilities, ensuring peace in the world was merely a word away. Yet, wherever there are people, conflicts arise due to limited resources, inevitably leading to distinctions between the strong and the weak.
The survival of the fittest is the natural order of things. If resources were evenly distributed by rules, the world would lose its vitality and the potential for transformative progress.
In reality, Chen Mu, who had been diligently comprehending the All-Life Essence, gradually gained a deeper understanding of it. His perspective was vastly different from that of mortals. In fact, this survival of the fittest was also a form of belonging for all living beings.
It is because living beings possess wisdom that competition and ambition arise, leading to conflicts and even wars. Everything exists because of these living beings, and Chen Mu aims to comprehend the path of all life, naturally refraining from interfering in worldly disputes.
The Heavenly Palace has always been the most transcendent power in the Great Xuan World, standing above all else.
During these hundreds of world years, significant events also transpired within the Heavenly Palace. The most momentous of them was the birth of the second Divine Realm Being after Chen Mu—not Chen Yue, nor Chen Yao, nor Qin Mengjun.
After Chen Mu ascended to the Divine Realm, the Great Xuan World finally witnessed the birth of another Divine Realm Being after thousands of years. Xu Hongyu, with Chen Mu's dedicated support, finally entered the Blood Transformation Realm and condensed her heart soul, cultivating a faint Eternal Spark.
At this stage, she had reached her limit. Cultivating an Immortal Heart Soul without external assistance was nearly impossible, and resources capable of forcibly elevating a person's heart soul to perfection were rare in the vast void.
However, by condensing a faint Eternal Spark, Xu Hongyu established the foundation to directly reach the Divine Realm with external assistance.
Chen Mu specifically plundered a World Origin to serve as the foundation, combining it with his understanding of the Life Mystery, and attempted to directly forge a Divine Energy Incarnation for Xu Hongyu.
Even with his current cultivation, Chen Mu could directly create life at the Divine Realm level. However, creating a life at the Divine Realm level from nothing and elevating others to the Divine Realm were entirely different matters.
Creating a life at the Divine Realm level from nothing required only the manipulation of Creation Power and Life Force with pure Divine Energy, without considering any other factors.
Elevating others to the Divine Realm, however, was a different story.
Chen Mu aimed to forge a Divine Energy Incarnation for Xu Hongyu by refining her body and heart soul into a single entity while preserving her memories and consciousness, making this task particularly challenging.
Even Jianmu Divine Lord could directly elevate an ordinary tree, refining it into a Mid-Rank Divine Armament, a capability far surpassing Chen Mu's current abilities.
Chen Mu was not at that level yet.
Even elevating Xu Hongyu to the threshold of the Divine Realm was a daunting task, but he eventually succeeded. Xu Hongyu became the second life in the Great Xuan World to reach the Divine Realm, although her cultivation journey was largely supported by Chen Mu.
As for Chen Yue and Chen Yao, with Chen Mu's guidance, they cultivated Immortal Heart Souls and Immortal Bodies, ready to enter the Divine Realm at any moment. For this reason, they were not in a rush to ascend, instead choosing to comprehend the Primordial Dao Embryo before reaching the Divine Realm to solidify their foundations.
However, this step proved to be extremely challenging.
In a world as prosperous and powerful as the Great Xuan World, cultivating Immortal Heart Souls and Immortal Bodies was not particularly difficult.
The abundance of resources, the well-established cultivation system, and the long lifespan made it relatively easy to reach the peak of mortals, unless one's talent was exceptionally lacking.
But comprehending the Primordial Dao was a different story; the difficulty skyrocketed!
Even comprehending the Primordial Dao Embryo was an extremely challenging task. In the three thousand great worlds of the Vangu Void, only a few could comprehend the Primordial Dao Embryo before reaching the Divine Realm in each era.
At this stage, one could seek external assistance, utilizing resources that facilitated the comprehension of the Primordial Dao. However, at the core, it still relied on one's own comprehension. If one's innate understanding was insufficient, even abundant resources would be of no use.
Under Chen Mu's deliberate cultivation, Chen Yue and Chen Yao's cultivation to the peak of mortals was not a miracle. With Chen Mu's guidance, their progress in comprehending the Primordial Dao Embryo was still extremely slow.
Chen Yao, as Chen Mu's only bloodline descendant, possessed talent at the peak of the Great Xuan World. Although her progress was slow, she was gradually comprehending the Primordial Dao Embryo. In contrast, Chen Yue showed almost no progress.
However, after cultivating the Immortal Heart Soul and the Immortal Body, although they couldn't be considered ageless and immortal, their lifespans were long enough. Therefore, they weren't in a hurry to enter the Divine Realm. They all remained in the Great Xuan World to further their cultivation.
On the other side.
Compared to the Great Xuan World's inhabitants who were still quietly cultivating and had never stepped out of the Border Void, Chen Mu finally began his activities in the Endless Void after the Demon Disaster, nearly eight hundred World Years later.
...
The Border of the Vangu Void.
Here, at the border of the Vangu Void, was a secret realm located between the Void and another Void, a crevice region between the two.
Unlike the Void itself, which had distinct layers of void, the crevice region was in a state of chaos. There were no clear layers here, and even if the void shattered, it wouldn't reveal a layered structure. Moreover, it was often difficult to shatter the void in this region.
These crevice regions were connected to the deeper void, where the three Primordial Daos interacted under the Supreme Law, creating 'chaotic' derivative regions. Essentially, every place was extraordinarily dangerous.
Different secret realms had varying degrees of danger.
Some secret realms could be freely explored by Second and Third Heaven Divine Beings, but in others, even the presence of a Divine Lord might lead to their downfall!
Among these, the Dark Abyss was one of the more dangerous secret realms. Here, the Primordial Daos were in chaos, forming a pitch-black abyss that stretched for millions of miles. No one knew what lay within, but it was known that extremely chaotic and violent Abyssal Lifeforms would often crawl out.
In the Great Xuan World, there was a book with the number 1691 written on it, and it was error-free!
Due to the Dark Abyss being adjacent to the Vangu Void, these Abyssal Lifeforms would directly enter the Vangu Void if they crossed the World Barrier. They had almost no rationality, being pure chaotic monsters that would devour and destroy indiscriminately.
Therefore.
In the Dark Abyss, powerful Divine Realm beings were needed to guard against the Abyssal Lifeforms entering the Vangu Void.
As the Dark Abyss was extremely vast, more than one Divine Realm being was required to guard it. Usually, two to three Sixth Heaven True Gods and several Fifth Heaven True Gods would jointly guard the area.
In the dimly lit world.
A pitch-black abyss stretched for millions of miles, spanning across the distant horizon. Just a glance gave one an extremely unsettling feeling, as if a terrifying beast had opened its giant mouth to devour everything!
And in the distance of this Dark Abyss, amidst the chaotic atmosphere, stood a figure gazing at the entire abyss, his eyes heavy with careful observation.
The figure wore a green robe, and it was none other than Chen Mu!
"Is this the Dark Abyss...?"
He stared at the distant, terrifying abyss, whispering to himself.
This was the first time he had seen a place other than a 'world' in the Endless Universe. Compared to the orderly Vangu Void, the Dark Abyss was pure chaos.
What Chen Mu could sense here were various Primordial Daos, intertwined in an extremely chaotic manner. This included Life, Ten Thousand Spirits, and even Creation, Void, and Time! Just a glance was enough for Chen Mu to decide against exploring it.
Even from what he could see, he could feel the chaos in the void's structure, and even the flow of time was disordered. Once he stepped in, there was no telling what consequences would follow.
According to his knowledge,
Even a Divine Lord wouldn't dare to enter the Dark Abyss lightly!
However, if one was only guarding the Dark Abyss, it wasn't as dangerous. The Abyssal Lifeforms that emerged were usually at the Second and Third Heaven levels, with only a tiny minority reaching the Fourth and Fifth Heaven levels.
Of course, occasionally, there would be Abyssal Lifeforms at the Sixth Heaven level, but such cases were extremely rare. Often, over the long span of several epochs, it was rare for a Sixth Heaven Abyssal Lifeform to emerge.
Guarding this place was one of the tasks of the Vangu Palace.
Chen Mu took on this task.
There were two reasons for his presence here. First, among the numerous tasks in the Vangu Palace, this was the least dangerous for him and offered the most Vangu Tokens.
Second, the Dark Abyss itself, which embodied various Primordial Daos in a chaotic entanglement, was a place where one could attempt to comprehend and fuse the Primordial Daos. Essentially, all Sixth Heaven Divine Beings in the Vangu Void would come to guard the Dark Abyss for a period, trying to comprehend and fuse the Primordial Daos.
Chen Mu also had this purpose.
Now, having understood the complete Life Mystery and All-Life Essence, and having cultivated the Spirit Birth Divine Art to the third layer, he was ready.
