Chapter 55 Opening Up
Chapter 55 Opening Up
Once he completes his ascension, Zi Chen will become the Lord of the World, the Lord of Heaven, the Lord of Time and Space, and the Lord of Eternity. As long as the world exists, he will exist; as long as the beings within the world exist, he will exist; as long as time and space exist, he will exist. This triple immortality is eternity.
Previously, Zi Chen had been constantly scavenging rare and precious materials, innate spiritual treasures, and the origins of gods and demons in the primordial world in order to open up this great world.
The creation of a world requires a foundation. Natural treasures transform into mountains and rivers, innate spiritual treasures transform into the laws of heaven and earth, and the origins of gods and demons transform into the origin of the world. The more one plunders, the stronger the foundation of the world becomes. Zi Chen has been scavenging in the primordial world for countless years, all for this moment.
Five figures appeared simultaneously beside Zi Chen.
Wu Shi, in the appearance of a young boy with a tender face, holds the Eternal Bell in his hands. The bell is silver-white with flowing patterns of light, and the sound of the bell gently resonates, freezing time in his chimes.
Wuliang, a middle-aged man with white hair and white clothes, had a dignified face. Behind him stood the Zhongtian Gate, within which endless spaces unfolded, leading to an unknown distance.
Mo Yun, dressed in golden robes, with a cold and stern face, held the Milky Way Axis in his arms. In the scroll, the sun, moon, and stars flowed, dazzling and brilliant, like celestial rivers.
Jiuyou, dressed in black robes with black hair, wore a slight smile and held the Jiuyou Cauldron in his arms. The cauldron shone with an abyss-like light, and the aura of the Jiuyou world overflowed from its mouth, dyeing the surrounding chaos into a dark gloom.
Kong Xuan, a handsome young man, wore a dark green robe and held the Red Dust Prison in his arms. The blood-red giant city shrank to the size of a fist in his arms, and the three city gates were wide open, from which the aura of the mortal world poured out.
Five bodies appeared together, along with five supreme treasures.
Zi Chen looked at the chaos before him, raised his right hand, and Mo Yun understood, handing the Milky Way Axis to his left hand while grasping the Ten Bright Swords in his right.
Zi Chen raised his left hand, and the power of time and space condensed in his palm, transforming into a silvery-white eternal light.
Mo Yun unleashed a sword strike.
The sword light of the Ten Bright Swords cleaved into the chaos, like a lightning bolt cutting through the darkness, splitting the chaos in two, tearing it apart, and causing the primordial chaos to separate.
But the power of this sword was not enough; chaos surged, and the crack began to heal in an instant.
At this moment, Zhongtian Gate and the Eternal Bell resounded simultaneously. Wushi threw the Eternal Bell into the air, and the silvery bell hung above the chaos. The sound of the bell rippled, and time froze at the edge of the crack. The healing of chaos was fixed by the power of time, and the crack could not be closed.
Wuliang pushed out the Zhongtian Gate, and the silver-white portal embedded itself into the crack. Spatial power surged out from the gate, widening the crack.
As time and space overlap, the crack no longer heals; instead, it begins to expand outward.
Mo Yun's second sword strike landed, the sword light cleaving into the widened crack, making it even deeper and wider. The third sword, the fourth sword, the fifth sword...
The sword light split infinitely, crisscrossing in the chaos. Each sword tore a new rift in the chaos, and each rift was stretched and expanded by the power of the Central Heaven Gate and the Eternal Bell.
The cracks connected, forming a huge void. Within the void, chaos dissipated, and the clear and turbid began to differentiate. The clear energy rose, while the turbid energy sank, and the embryonic form of a world slowly emerged within the void.
Mo Yun continued to swing his sword, the speed of his strikes increasing, the sword light becoming denser and denser. Hundreds of sword lights intertwined in the chaos, forming an impenetrable net of light that sliced and tore the chaos apart layer by layer.
The void grew larger and larger, and the differentiation between the pure and the impure became more and more obvious. The pure air rose and condensed into the prototype of the sky; the impure air sank and condensed into the prototype of the earth. Between heaven and earth, there was still a murky state, and the pure and the impure had not yet been completely separated. The forces of earth, fire, wind and water raged between heaven and earth.
With a flick of his sleeve, Zi Chen unleashed a silvery-white eternal light, formed by the intertwining of spacetime forces. This light surged forth from Zi Chen's sleeve, like a sea of light, and plunged into the chaos.
Wherever the sea of light passed, large swathes of chaos were shattered, transforming into even more pure and turbid energies.
The Eternal Light is a product of the fusion of time and space, a higher level of power that transcends time and space. Chaos melts away layer by layer in the face of the Eternal Light, like snow under the scorching sun.
The expansion of the void accelerated suddenly. Mo Yun's sword light sliced through the chaos, while Zi Chen's eternal light erased the chaos. The two joined forces, and the nascent form of heaven and earth expanded at a speed visible to the naked eye.
No one knows how much time has passed, but the nascent form of heaven and earth has expanded to a sufficiently large extent, vast and boundless.
As heaven and earth gradually took shape, the pure and the impure separated, with the sky above and the earth below, but the forces of the four elements of earth, fire, wind, and water still raged between heaven and earth.
The power of the earth transformed into countless enormous rocks, tumbling and colliding in the void; the power of the wind transformed into a storm sweeping across the heavens and earth, scattering the rocks in all directions; the power of the water transformed into towering waves, surging and roaring between heaven and earth; the power of the fire transformed into blazing flames, burning everything crimson.
The forces of the four elements collided, devoured, and annihilated each other, shattering the newly formed world into pieces.
Zi Chen took out the Four Symbols Pagoda, and the four-tiered pagoda, in shades of blue, red, yellow, and white, flew out and continued to expand.
The Four Symbols Pagoda descended into the center of the world. The pagoda shook, and all four layers lit up simultaneously. The yellow Earth Pagoda unleashed boundless suction, drawing in the raging earth energy between heaven and earth. The cyan Wind Pagoda swept in the storm, the black Water Pagoda swallowed the giant waves, and the crimson Fire Pagoda devoured the flames.
The Four Symbols Pagoda continuously absorbed the power of the four symbols, causing its energy to surge. As a top-tier innate spiritual treasure, it already contained the origin of the four symbols. Now, having absorbed the power of the four symbols from the beginning of the world, the origin and external forces merged, and the Four Symbols Pagoda began to advance towards becoming an innate supreme treasure.
The power of the four elements was suppressed by the Four Elements Pagoda, and the chaos between heaven and earth gradually subsided.
However, the pure and turbid energies are still intertwined, with the pure energies mixed with the turbid energies, and the turbid energies mixed with the pure energies, so the heavens and earth cannot truly take shape.
Zi Chen waved his sleeve.
Hundreds of innate spiritual treasures flew out from his sleeves: the Limitless Ring, the Heavenly Mirror, the Myriad Transformations Mirror, the Heaven-Sealing Seal, the Myriad Weapons Diagram, the Black Heaven Banner, the Flying Smoke Sword, the God-Slaying Shuttle, the Blood Gold Ruler, the Flowing Light Pot, the Heavenly Water Bag...
One after another, innate spiritual treasures unfolded in the void, transforming into countless streams of light that pierced through the void and severed the intertwined pure and turbid energies between heaven and earth.
The Wuji Ring rotates, separating Yin and Yang into clear and turbid energies; the Mirror of Heaven shines, discerning the boundary between clear and turbid; the Mirror of Myriad Transformations reflects, distinguishing the confused clear and turbid; the Seal of Heaven seal suppresses, fixing the separated clear and turbid in their respective positions; countless divine weapons and sharp blades from the Myriad Weapons Diagram emerge simultaneously, forcibly severing the entangled clear and turbid...
A hundred streams of light crisscrossed the heavens and earth, like an invisible net, gradually cutting apart the overlapping pure and impure realms. The pure energy was lifted upwards and merged into the sky, while the impure energy was suppressed downwards and merged into the earth. The sky grew higher and higher, and the earth grew thicker and thicker.
Zi Chen waved his hand again, and one after another innate spiritual roots flew out from his sleeve.
The Blood Tree of Ten Thousand Spirits is entirely blood-red, with a canopy like a canopy. It is rooted in the earth, drawing up the turbid energy from the depths of the earth and transforming it into life force to nourish the world.
