Chapter 1235 - 316: Secrets of Prehistory and the Ancestral Human Biography

Chapter 1235: Chapter 316: Secrets of Prehistory and the Ancestral Human Biography

Today’s arena combat is critically important.

But none of the Immortal Venerates thought the painter would fabricate such a scene right before their eyes, creating a wild history of the future on the spot.

One must know, how terrifying the energy needed for a parallel space-time of an All Heavens World?

Nine-State, Celestial Destiny, Immortal Realm... thousands upon thousands of All Heavens Worlds must split into a second.

Equivalent to the area of the [future] doubling!

Single-threaded becomes dual-threaded.

Although the other thread is a time wild history.

It was one thing to create several Time Ancient Tombs—like Water Dragon necks—providing energy for other forces’ conquests, but now it’s like opening the floodgates!

Seeing this operation by the painter, Ning Zheng turned his head, asking Emperor Jiushui beside him, "Do you know how the area ratio of the past and future is, by chance?"

Beside him, Jiu Shui glanced at Ning Zheng, "The world is fifty, the past accounts for forty-nine, the future is the vanished one."

Ning Zheng comprehended.

The world’s resources are divided into fifty parts.

The past, accounts for forty-nine, strung into parallel beads by time.

The future, accounts for one, with the beads of the string scattered on the ground.

In a more vivid metaphor, it is a rope twisted from countless fine lines, with the end fanning out into dense floral strings.

Jiu Shui softly explained again, "Do you know why they don’t completely take away the ’future’s’ materials, leaving a fraction behind?"

He paused, expression neither joyful nor sorrowful,

"Because the past is destined always to flow into the future."

"They leave a foundation for the future, having the Immortal Realm and Netherworld manage it, then periodically send materials back."

Ning Zheng understood.

Leaving a foundation for the future isn’t because they’re kind-hearted!

If they drained the future completely, reverted it to 50 parts, then the lackeys in the future’s Immortal and Netherworld would die in the future too.

And over time, the 50 parts of the territory would continue to ebb, like an hourglass of time.

Without the management of the Immortal Realm and Netherworld, things would more easily go wrong.

Draining a pond to catch all the fish isn’t good!

Leaving out a piece of land, keeping the spot occupied, makes it easier for them to manage the future and continue sneaking things back.

Is this probably what ’Heaven’s derivation is forty-nine, human’s retreat is one’ means?

The future Immortal Venerates, are all Human Path Immortal Venerates.

Ning Zheng found it interesting.

"No wonder, Xian, is also called the Human Ancestor."

Ning Zheng suddenly said, "He severed the past of the Celestial Phenomenon Immortal Venerate, ushered in the era of the Human Path Immortal Venerate, becoming the human that escaped, evading Heaven’s grasp."

"More or less."

Jiu Shui fell silent, recalling the other’s words just now, Xian is also called the Human Ancestor in prehistory, that figure in the Nine-State is also the Human Ancestor.

It is not a coincidence.

"Could you tell me more?" Ning Zheng got straight to the point, curious about the past, hoping to gain more information and intelligence.

Thankfully, unlike the Holy Spirit Immortal Venerate, Jiu Shui isn’t an enigmatic person, very down-to-earth:

"Matters regarding Xian are unknown to the lower realm, but all Immortal Venerates are basically aware of them. If you wish to know, I’ll tell you."

His demeanor was humble, never an arrogant person,

"I previously returned to the ’past,’ traveling to the time nodes, accompanying and witnessing Xian’s youth, his growth in middle age, and even witnessing that battle, his downfall."

Then, he told Ning Zheng about Xian’s story.

That Xian indeed left a manifestation in the future—the Human Ancestor, condensing his growth experience in the Nine-State’s ’Ancestral Human Biography,’ influencing Jiu Shui’s development.

Xian’s main storyline was akin to the Nine-State’s Ancestral Human Biography.

The Human Ancestor discovered the transcendent beings, manipulating time travel, twisting your life’s beliefs, imprinting thought seals, turning the masses into "puppets."

His heroic friends, geniuses in the river of time, were also somewhat akin to the pseudo-human Jiumu Qing, like being possessed, altering their self.

Unable to know who I truly am...

That era became another pseudo-human epoch, despair, pain, bewilderment.

Even some prodigies who weren’t modified or deemed unworthy to act upon, fell into self-doubt, constantly wondering if they’d been "altered."

The hidden geniuses of the entire era erupted with one thought: how to prove that this moment is my true self?

This is the horror of the river of time!

All geniuses, had their pasts rewritten, seemingly gifted with the blessing of the gods from birth, walking a shining path to the pinnacle, but really, they were made dogs.

Thus.

He sought freedom, laying low, cultivating in the vast expanse of time, exploring.

He traveled through one timeline after another, meeting one genius after another, ultimately watching them one by one as they were time-stamped "possessed"...

In his despair, he could only hide.

He endured a series of trials, grew, proved his dao, ultimately rebelling, gathering a group of friends to start the final showdown.

But he still failed.

The ending was: the Human Ancestor went mad!

Similar to the outcome of the Nine-State’s Ancestral Human Biography.

The fate of this Human Ancestor, most of his power was guarding the river of time, unable to withdraw, lingering at that battle’s final node.

Wielding a long halberd, eternally guarding the Time Gate.

Insane, ever-present in the past, dead in the future.

After listening, Ning Zheng understood, feeling a slight sentiment.

The Human Ancestor went mad.

Jiumu Qing, Venerable Zhongluan, these people, in a certain sense, were indeed pseudo-humans.

They had mental barriers; see how insane Jiumu Qing is, so obsessed with the mother, becoming a yandere, what kind of former number one prodigy in the world?

Jiumu Qing is a typical example, with boundless twisted mind, only resentment, maliciousness, viciousness remain... his entire future was ruined.

Ning Zheng sighed:

"Xian reflected his resistance story of the Ancestral Human Biography onto Nine-State, to cultivate a Ring Immortal Venerate belonging to his lineage."

"You, Jiu Shui, were born as the seed of a Ring Immortal Venerate, the whole cycle civilization of Nine-State was to raise a Ring Immortal Venerate."

Jiu Shui said calmly: "It’s a breeding ground, it could be anyone, I just stood out from it."

Ning Zheng only felt half his mission accomplished, from Jiu Shui understanding the prehistoric structure, probing prehistoric hostilities, historical secrets.

Moreover.

Ning Zheng basically learned the mysteries of the Nine-State’s main plot and layout.

No wonder pseudo-humans, Embers, cycles... mere products of a world like Nine-State changed the entire All Heavens World.

It turns out a powerful figure was manipulating from behind, playing with the future.

He accidentally traveled to this Nine-State world, entered the land of a powerful figure, witnessed the growth of the main protagonist Jiu Shui, becoming the Celestial Phenomenon Immortal Venerate.

While he also sighed in his heart: this Jiu Shui is truly the protagonist from a storybook!

After all.

Isn’t the storybook like this?

The protagonist begins as a mortal rising in the flow of Immortal Cultivation, and gradually a whole bunch of backgrounds emerge, what ancestor’s plans, the missing dad is the supreme god, the long-dead mom is actually the Holy Master of a Great Sect.

Not much different from those hot-blooded manga next door.

Naruto Uzumaki starts off as a waste material, parents, and ancestors all turn out to be big shots, he himself is some kind of reincarnation, the whole world is related to him, born as the prophesied child.

The common start of Luffy also turned into the Nika Fruit-man, the whole family are powerful figures of profound origins, what effort? They’re the prophesied child destined after countless years!

"You truly are the classic protagonist in a storybook." Ning Zheng sighed, "So much like, so similar."

Jiu Shui: ???

He felt he was still very much himself, why does this person act so strangely.

"Your young mindset sealed, Human Ancestor influencing your whole life, how do you know this moment is your true self?" Ning Zheng suddenly said.

Are you the Reversed Celestial Gang?

Jiu Shui, uninterested in dealing with Ning Zheng’s words, quietly sipped a cup of tea:

"Each time I die, I reset my foundation, eliminating hidden dangers, the Human Ancestor can only act as a persuader in my life repeatedly, indirectly affecting my obsessions."

Hence, it was because he found this tiresome that he liked quiet days, seeking a peaceful life.
