Chapter 1847: 1,173 Mount Buzhou Ruins_2

The Chaos Demigods, who should have been ignored by the Heavenly Dao, also became targets of suppression by the Heavenly Dao. Once they appear in the world, they will immediately face terrifying divine retribution.

And all of this is due to the fact that the Daoist Ancestor merged with the Dao, forcefully instilling his own notions of righteousness, evil, good, and bad into the Heavenly Dao, thus creating the dichotomy of good and evil.

It is also because the Daoist Ancestor deemed the Chaos Demigods harmful to the Prehistoric World, making them targets of suppression by the Heavenly Dao, so much so that they dare not show themselves even now.

The merit of the Daoist Ancestor is boundless; it’s precisely for this reason that he delineated good and evil, righteousness, and wickedness for the Heavenly Dao, giving the Prehistoric World its current values and order.

Without him, the Prehistoric World would certainly be different. Those with formidable cultivation would act recklessly, while the weaker ones could only suffer oppression.

The All Heavens and Myriads of Worlds today can be seen as the Prehistoric World without the Daoist Ancestor, boundlessly chaotic, with no order to speak of.

Similarly, without the Daoist Ancestor’s suppression, the Chaos Demigods hidden within the Prehistoric World would have long since emerged, wreaking havoc and stirring storms. Under their influence, the Prehistoric World might not have developed to where it is today.

To call the Daoist Ancestor the Sea Pacifying God Needle of the Prehistoric World is no exaggeration. If it weren’t for his diligent maintenance of the Prehistoric World’s order, the Prehistoric World would have long ceased to exist.

The Prehistoric World today, though dilapidated, can still be used after some patching, which is certainly better than having nothing at all.

…

In the depths of outer chaos, there stands a purple palace, like the source of the Great Dao, emanating an endless mysterious aura.

This is the Zixiao Palace, the secluded residence of the Daoist Ancestor, and also the most mystical place in the Prehistoric World, next to the Pangu Temple.

At this time, the six Saints of the Heavenly Dao all gathered here due to Jiang Chen’s endeavor to reconstruct Mount Buzhou. Even the Daoist Ancestor Hongjun appeared personally for this matter.

“Jiang Chen wants to reconstruct Mount Buzhou—is this true? Why was there no sign beforehand?”

“Mount Buzhou is not Sumeru Mountain; it’s not something he can reconstruct just because he wants to. Even with everyone’s help, it’s difficult to accomplish.”

As soon as Empress Nuwa arrived, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign couldn’t wait to ask her.

Now, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign is in a rather conflicted state. As a Saint, he hopes for Mount Buzhou to be reconstructed, as this would undoubtedly enhance the original source of the Prehistoric World, benefiting all cultivators.

However, as a proud individual, he doesn’t want someone else to succeed in reconstructing Mount Buzhou, especially because he himself once attempted its reconstruction.

For him, to see Jiang Chen achieve something he could not is to admit he is lesser than Jiang Chen. This is a scene the proud Primordial Heavenly Sovereign does not wish to witness.

When Mount Buzhou first collapsed, the Saints discussed its reconstruction. Unfortunately, despite exhausting all methods, they were unable to achieve it.

Indeed, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign initially took away the collapsed remains of Mount Buzhou with the intention of reconstruction. But later, unable to achieve this, he refined it into the Heaven Overturning Seal.

One shouldn’t say that the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign only paid lip service without giving any effort in reconstructing Mount Buzhou. On the contrary, he genuinely exerted a great effort.

He believed that since Mount Buzhou was part of the spine of the Great God Pangu, and he himself was transformed from Pangu’s primordial spirit, their original sources should be interconnected.

Thus, the Primordial Heavenly Sovereign attempted to use his original source to repair Mount Buzhou. The result, however, was not only did he fail, but his original source was damaged, causing him to be seriously injured.

As a Saint, he was unexpectedly schemed against by the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou, leading to his Evil Corpse becoming demonic, the root cause being his severe injury from attempting to repair Mount Buzhou.

No matter how strong the Demon Ancestor Luo Hou is, he couldn’t possibly have schemed against a peak Saint. He only succeeded because he seized the opportunity when the Saint was injured.

“Yes, junior sister. The matter of reconstructing Mount Buzhou is not as simple as it seems. We have tried before; you know the difficulty.”

“Does Jiang Chen truly have the confidence to succeed?”

The Saint of Taiqing also asked from the side.

Having attempted it himself, he knows the difficulty of reconstructing Mount Buzhou very well. It is not due to someone’s obstruction, but because of Mount Buzhou itself.

Within the structure of Mount Buzhou is Pangu’s Divine Power. When dispersed, it isn’t strong, but once combined, this Pangu Divine Power grows stronger.

In the end, not even the Saints can withstand this power. All their divine abilities and laws would become ineffective under the suppression of Pangu’s Divine Might.

This is precisely why the Saints failed in reconstructing Mount Buzhou.

The preliminary stages of reconstruction were manageable; with their cultivation, they could barely withstand Pangu’s Divine Might. But as Mount Buzhou gradually reconstructed, Pangu’s Divine Might grew increasingly stronger.

Then, at the final juncture, due to the overwhelming Pangu’s Divine Might, all the Saints’ divine abilities would fail, resulting in the failure of reconstructing Mount Buzhou.

The Saints made several attempts; all failed at the critical moment, making them realize,

once Mount Buzhou shattered, it couldn’t be reconstructed. For at the critical juncture, not a single entity in the Prehistoric World could withstand Pangu’s Divine Might.

If it were otherwise, the Saints would have reconstructed Mount Buzhou long ago; there would be no need to wait till today. It isn’t a lack of desire but a lack of capability.

“Since the Star Lord has said so, he must have full assurance. Let us not forget that the Star Lord excels at creating miracles.”

“Moreover, it is meaningless for us to doubt him here. This matter isn’t something unverifiable; just wait for some time, and the truth will become apparent.”

Without waiting for Empress Nuwa to speak, Zhunti Saint had already spoken up.

Presently, the Western Saints are Jiang Chen’s most steadfast allies. Even though Jiang Chen has never stated this, the Western Saints are resolutely convinced.

The prosperity of the West is entirely dependent on Jiang Chen. Matters concerning their paths of Dao leave the Western Saints no room for hesitation; they unequivocally, unhesitantly stand by Jiang Chen.

They have no choice!

“That’s true. Let us wait and see. However, for such a significant task as reconstructing Mount Buzhou, shouldn’t the Star Lord at least discuss it with us?”

“He could at least inform us of the specifics?”

The Primordial Heavenly Sovereign nodded first, rare acknowledgment of Zhunti Saint’s words, then complained, expressing his dissatisfaction with Jiang Chen.

“The Star Lord should currently be at the Mount Buzhou ruins; shouldn’t we head there to meet him directly?”

This time, Daoist Ancestor Hongjun, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke.

The Daoist Ancestor harbored much curiosity about Jiang Chen, for he remained the only individual in the Prehistoric World he could not see through.

In private, the Daoist Ancestor did not know how long he had observed Jiang Chen, yet no matter how long he watched, he gleaned nothing.

The Daoist Ancestor’s words were not a proposal to the others but a notification. As his voice fell, he disappeared on the spot, having already gone to the Mount Buzhou ruins.

Helpless, the others had to follow suit.

…

In the deep void, there lies an extremely desolate and dangerous area.

Here, apocalyptic tides surge, endless destructive forces rise, and overwhelming Sha Qi sweeps, preventing anyone from approaching.

This is the Mount Buzhou ruins.

“Such a powerful Sha Qi!”

The Mount Buzhou ruins—Jiang Chen came for the first time, and despite knowing the harshness of its environment, its extremity still exceeded his expectations.

Both the destructive forces and the overwhelming Sha Qi are primordial-level powers, capable of threatening even a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial level.

Yet thinking about it, this seems normal.

After all, at the end of the Great Ancient Era, the shattering of the Heaven and Earth began at this epicenter, Mount Buzhou, spreading outward in all directions.

As a result, the environment here became unprecedentedly harsh. Even a Daluo Jinxian of the Primordial level must proceed cautiously.

This is the aftermath of the destruction of the Chaos World, and its formidable power can be easily imagined.
