Chapter 1630: Chapter 697 Reproduction Theory_2

The little boy collapsed to the ground in despair, showing no reaction to the leader’s words, and the light in his eyes gradually faded away.

Mu You looked at the little boy sympathetically, vaguely understanding his feelings at this moment.

For over a thousand years, he had walked alone on a path contrary to the mainstream groups, enduring sufferings, dangers, pressure, and infamy that were hard to articulate to others.

Possibly, what kept him going all this time was the beautiful vision of resurrecting his mentors in the future.

However, at this moment, having finally gone through so much hardship and completed his goal, while waiting to reap the fruits of victory, he was told that it was all a lie.

He was deceived by the master and elders he revered the most, unable to fulfill the goal of resurrecting everyone, and because he completed the historical loop, he must now watch history unfold before his eyes.

This kind of thing, enough to collapse anyone’s beliefs, is a blow that can be imagined.

“Is there really… no other way?”

Mu You hesitated for a moment, looked at the man, and voiced his doubt.

Actually, he felt that the boy’s theory wasn’t entirely baseless; given the Fool’s Ancestors’ overall quality and strength, coupled with intelligence from the future, perhaps through strategic planning and initiative, they might indeed reverse the situation.

Why must one take a roundabout path, relying on the ‘sacrifice of a generation’ at such a tragic cost to accomplish a task for another generation?

The man seemed to know what he was about to ask, shaking his head: “No matter how hard our generation tries, it is impossible for us to succeed.”

“Why?” Mu You was somewhat puzzled.

Coming all this way, he had also witnessed the power of these Fool’s Ancestors; with the overall quality of this generation of Fool, there was no reason for tasks that descendants could accomplish to be beyond their reach.

“It is not because of insufficient strength, but because… the timing is not right,” the man said.

“Timing?” Mu You was stunned.

The man did not immediately explain but pondered for a few seconds, suddenly asking a different question.

“What do you think is the most important thing for a race or civilization?”

“The most important thing…” Mu You was bewildered; the question was so broad: Technology? Culture? Military force? Population? It seemed that every factor was important…

“No, none of these,”

The leader seemed to see through his thoughts, shaking his head: “Regardless of any creature, the most important foundation for existence is always the ability to ‘propagate.’

These words were indisputable; a race that lost its ability to propagate, no matter how strong, had no future.

After hearing this, Mu You brightened, realizing something, “Is there any way to cut off the propagation ability of the Divine Devouring Beast?”

The man nodded and looked towards the direction of the World-Creating Mountain.

“In the World-Creating Mountain, there was originally a stone plate called the ‘Creation Stone Plate,’ which was actually the core of that meteorite that brought the divinity system to the Sky High World.

After the meteorite collided and shattered, countless Authority Stones shot to various corners of the continent, and what was left behind was this stone plate.

This stone plate lacks authority and cannot be controlled by anyone, but it is the motherboard carrying all divine power. The Divine Race of Gods initially used this stone plate as the core to create the World-Creating Mountain and the Star Spirit World.

…

Mu You was somewhat shocked; what Ava mentioned as something missing from the World-Creating Mountain turned out to be something so important…

“So where is this stone plate now?”

“This stone plate is currently in the hands of the God of Chaos. Moreover, we suspect that in the center of this stone plate resides the mother body of the Divine Devouring Beast.”

“As long as we can destroy this mother body, we can sever the propagation ability of the Divine Devouring Beast.

Once it loses the ability to reproduce, no new Parasitic Beasts will ever be born in the world, and regardless of how powerful the remaining Divine Devouring Beasts are, their numbers will only dwindle with time, making extinction just a matter of time.

However, wanting to destroy this mother body, there is an unavoidable hurdle, which is the God of Chaos.”

The man looked at Mu You as he spoke: “This is also the reason we strive to create you, as the Fool needs a ‘god’ capable of contending with the God of Chaos…”

“So… that’s how it is…”

After hearing the explanation, Mu You finally cleared up a lot of confusion, but what followed was a heavy sense of responsibility.

The first generation of Fools sacrificed a generation to bring about his existence, and as a repayment, he must represent humanity in defeating the God of Chaos, severing the Divine Devouring Beast’s root of propagation.

The pressure is immense…

“Are you sure… I can defeat the God of Chaos?” Mu You couldn’t help but ask.

Mu You had once encountered the God of Chaos, and at that time, the profound aura of the Heavenly Dao left him with little confidence to win.

Even if he had acquired the Scarlet Battle Armor and was quickly advancing in all aspects, the gap between him and the God of Chaos was still massive.

Moreover, now that the God of Chaos knew of his existence, it is likely he could also guess their intentions, so how could he possibly sit idly by and give him time to grow?

“Rest assured, whether you can win the duel against the God of Chaos or not, one thing is for certain, he absolutely cannot win!” the man said with a smile.

“Why?”

“Because once he defeats you, he will ascend to 15 stars.”

“15 stars… so what?” Mu You was still puzzled.

The man hesitated for a moment before saying, “Actually, I’m not entirely clear on this aspect either. You can understand it as under the divinity system, it is forever impossible for a 15-star creature to be born, because reaching 15 stars means transcending the constraints of the divinity system.
