Free Web NovelChapter 653: Chapter 426: Meeting Emperor Yu! The Real Truth! Heavenly Destiny and No Fate (Part 2)
For a while, the entire ground was covered in blood.
The Disaster of the Nine Dragons lasted for an unknown duration.
The demonic aura spread from the Nine Dragons.
The Demon Race benefited from this.
However, the homes of the Human Race were destroyed.
The Human Race never gave up hope.
Countless cultivators grew and cultivated in such an environment, eventually wielding long swords, wielding artifacts.
Roaring as they charged toward the nine Evil Dragons that even immortals could not contend with...
"This is..."
"The great change of Jiuzhou..." Zhong Heng murmured.
It’s just that the time was too distant.
Nowadays, Jiuzhou has already lost the truth of the last great change, known only by a very few immortals.
How could one know the great change of Emperor Yu’s era?
Passed down to the present.
Only the myth of Yu the Great controlling the floods, and Emperor Yu, the most renowned name among the Human Emperors.
"Such power..." Zhong Heng looked up.
Looking at the nine Evil Dragons entrenched throughout Jiuzhou.
Ordinary people, looking up, might only see a few scales.
They were too colossal.
No one knew when they came.
Only that the sea water from the Boundless Sea descended from the sky, appearing at the very center of Jiuzhou.
Then transformed into nine incomparably vast great rivers, each river as wide as an ocean.
Countless civilizations were destroyed as a result.
The cultivation civilization of the Human Race suffered devastating damage, and even the Demon Race became dominated by the Aquatic Race.
Zhong Heng’s consciousness suddenly elevated.
He saw the nine Evil Dragons again.
Along with countless great rivers rampaging across the land, Zhong Heng even saw sea water flowing into a vast inner sea.
Within the inner sea, seventy-two points of light emitted a faint glow, yet were dimmed by the rushing river water.
Powerful Divinity Transformation sects were forced to migrate, and some sects and families, unwilling to leave, were ultimately washed away completely.
The great disaster lasted for an unknown period of time.
A beam of light flashed across the sky, and the scene before Zhong Heng began to accelerate.
In the darkest time for the Human Race, a star emitted the most intense light, and this star finally transformed into Haoyang.
A young man began to grow.
He eventually grew into a man, the man looked up at the sky.
He stood in the river and the next moment transformed into a towering giant.
Leading countless experts of the Human Race, he suppressed the nine Evil Dragons.
Using the dragon corpses of the nine Evil Dragons to forge divine talismans, using the Divine Cauldrons to bear the divine talismans, nine in total, suppressing nine places in Jiuzhou.
Thus, the young man grown into a man was crowned under the adoration of everyone, even the immortals.
From then on, he became the Human Emperor, leader of the Human Race, known as, Emperor Yu.
"So this is how it is..." Zhong Heng murmured.
Emperor Yu seemed to sense something and looked towards a certain place in the void.
Immortals were puzzled.
But Zhong Heng could clearly feel Emperor Yu’s gaze, he was looking at him.
"There are two kinds of people in heaven and earth that are the most mysterious."
"One is the Heavenly Destiny, the other is No Fate."
"If Jiuzhou wishes to ascend to the Daluo Realm, great calamities will naturally be unending."
"Since the Ancient Celestial Venerable sought to prove the Daluo Eternal, Jiuzhou could no longer stop."
"No Fate, everything depends on you."
Emperor Yu said calmly.
Everything around turned into nothingness.
In the end, only that figure sitting like a sculpture remained.
His appearance and stature were exactly the same as the Emperor Yu Zhong Heng had just seen.
It was Emperor Yu!
Emperor Yu looked at Zhong Heng and smiled.
He extended a single hand.
A ’book’ composed of two pages appeared in front of Emperor Yu.
Two pages, appearing extremely thin.
Yet Zhong Heng could feel the weight of this book, as heavy as the everlasting river of time.
This was the Luo Book, the original form.
Zhong Heng’s heart trembled as he looked at Emperor Yu.
Emperor Yu remained seated and unmoving, watching Zhong Heng.
Or perhaps, looking through Zhong Heng at the existence behind him.
........................
Jiang Ming’s face bore a look of shock.
"It is actually so..."
He could feel that Emperor Yu was clearly looking at him!
Emperor Yu’s cultivation might have been deeper than even Bai Ze’s back then.
The Jiuzhou Simulator’s simulation of Jiuzhou might be a real world, an idea Jiang Ming had speculated about a long time ago.
First Bai Ze the Great Saint, then Emperor Yu.
Both confirmed Jiang Ming’s idea, although it might also be an effect of the simulator striving for realism.
Where did the simulator itself come from?
Jiang Ming paused the simulation to gather his thoughts.
"Emperor Yu..."
"Luo Book..."
"So it is, so it is..."
A flash of lightning crossed Jiang Ming’s mind.
Emperor Yu withheld the Luo Book.
After the great change, the Luo Book flew deep into the Fragment World.
And began to derive the world.
Emperor Yu holding the Luo Book might not have been to re-derive a Jiuzhou World.
The Luo Book World flying out during the great change twenty thousand years ago wasn’t due to the change itself.
It was because of Emperor Yu!
Emperor Yu was waiting for him! Waiting for Jiang Ming, waiting for Zhong Heng!
Or perhaps
This was the gift Emperor Yu left for him.
The entire Luo Book, credited with returning the Luo Book World and many Fragment Worlds to Jiuzhou!
These credits might potentially make Zhong Heng the true Master of River Map!
Emperor Yu had long seen the timeline of Zhong Heng.
"Heavenly Destiny beings and No Fate beings..." Jiang Ming murmured.
Heavenly Destiny beings might be those like Fuxi and Emperor Yu.
No Fate beings... might be the individual lives Jiang Ming simulated, as well as other special circumstances.
According to Emperor Yu, overcoming the great calamity requires a Heavenly Destiny being or a No Fate being.
Past great calamities may have been overcome by Heavenly Destiny beings.
In the future, there may be great calamities where a Heavenly Destiny being cannot overcome, where there’s fundamentally no Heavenly Destiny being.
Emperor Yu saw this and discovered Zhong Heng, this No Fate being.
Sent the opportunity to become the Master of River Map.
"Or perhaps... for the real great calamity..."
Jiang Ming opened his hands, looking at his hands.
If Zhong Heng could achieve great success, he would be the primary beneficiary.
If he becomes stronger, the lives he simulates would also grow stronger.
Jiang Ming was unsure of how deeply Emperor Yu had seen.
Jiang Ming took a deep breath, clearing everything from his mind.
He looked towards the simulation.
"One life, clear the stage!"
This is the mode with the greatest gain, and Jiang Ming could thus obtain more benefits.
...........................
Jiang Ming’s thoughts synchronized into Zhong Heng’s mind.
Zhong Heng looked at the figure before him, finding it unbelievable and somewhat silent.
The supreme treasure of River Map and Luo Book could only truly be obtained by those destined, or a Child of Destiny.
Under regular circumstances, others have no chance of acquiring them.
But suppose this person had River Map’s preliminary approval, given the River Map Illusion, and recovered the Luo Book that had a significant causal relationship with River Map...
Zhong Heng’s eyes flickered.
He respectfully bowed before Emperor Yu.
"Greetings to His Majesty Emperor Yu!"
Emperor Yu merely smiled without speaking.
He did not belong to this time.
Emperor Yu began to slowly transform into points of light.
As he completely disappeared, the River Map Illusion in Zhong Heng’s heart began to vibrate rapidly.
Prior to this, it seemed all external factors were concealed by Emperor Yu.
The Old Turtle’s illusion emerged from Zhong Heng’s chest.
This was the first time Zhong Heng saw the Divine Turtle of River Map appear in the external world.
The Old Turtle looked around, seeing the Luo Book, and showing a human-like expression of joy on its face, hurriedly paddled forward with its forelimbs to tap the Luo Book.
A shrunken illusion of the Dragon Horse emerged from the Luo Book.
The Dragon Horse illusion seemed confused, glanced at the Divine Turtle.
The Divine Turtle once again gave the Dragon Horse two slaps with its forelimbs, and the Dragon Horse’s eyes became clear.
The Divine Turtle nodded towards the Dragon Horse.
The Dragon Horse let out a silent neigh and vanished along with the Luo Book.
Without any spatial fluctuation, Zhong Heng had no idea how the Luo Book disappeared.
The Divine Turtle nodded at Zhong Heng with satisfaction, then retracted into Zhong Heng’s chest.
Zhong Heng seemed to feel that the River Map Illusion had undergone new changes.
Yet he also noticed a cultivation technique appearing in his mind.
Or rather, the cultivation methods for two divine techniques.
"Sea Calming Seal"
"Nine Cauldron Seal"
