Chapter 1675: 1087 Di Jun has an enemy_2
"Hmm? I didn’t see anything!"
A number of Great Divine Transcendents simultaneously traced back in time, gazing toward the end of the River of Time and Space. What they discovered was that this continent seemed to have suddenly appeared in the void as if it never existed in the past.
"An unparalleled powerhouse has acted, severing the past of this continent. Even if a Saint intervened, it would still yield no trace."
The Queen Mother spoke up to explain. Known as the strongest time-related treasure among the Innate Spiritual Treasures, the Kunlun Mirror gave its owner—Queen Mother—significant authority in the domain of time.
"If Di Jun has already been resurrected, then his troubles won’t be insignificant. If he hasn’t been resurrected, his troubles are even greater; it’s possible that someone has nullified his backup plans."
Ancestral Witch Xuanming spoke with schadenfreude. She harbored a blood feud with Di Jun, where only one could live while the other perished. As long as Di Jun met misfortune, it made her delighted.
Jiang Chen remained silent. From the moment everyone began tracing time, he stayed quiet, as he had a lingering sense of unease.
At the end of the timeline, although nothing seemed to exist, Jiang Chen nonetheless sensed a familiar aura. It wasn’t the aura of Di Jun but that of a Chaos Demigod. He suspected that Di Jun might have been targeted by one of them.
However, this was all merely his conjecture. Without evidence, he wouldn’t simply blurt out his thoughts.
"Alright, fellow Daoists. At present, reshaping Cang Mountain is the priority. If anyone has further doubts, once I have completed the restructuring, you may go and investigate the fragments of this land, provided that you do not harm any lives."
"I have my reasons for preserving the living beings here. I need to figure out who created them."
Jiang Chen interrupted the speculation of the crowd. At this moment, they were at the critical juncture of reconstructing Cang Mountain, and much time had already been wasted. No more delays could be afforded.
Even if an earth-shattering event were to occur, nothing was as important as reshaping Cang Mountain.
"The Star Lord indeed has keen insight. He immediately discerned that the beings inhabiting this place are not among the known races of the Prehistoric World but are postnatally created entities. It remains unclear which powerhouse crafted them."
Following Jiang Chen’s words, it was only then that everyone began to notice. The locals, while somewhat similar to the creatures of the Prehistoric World, were unlike any they had ever seen. They were new and unfamiliar species.
Clearly, this was not a naturally born race but postnatal creations forged by a Great Divine Transcendent. If the creator could be identified, their origins—and the mastermind behind them—could be revealed.
"Reshaping Cang Mountain is the priority. Let us step aside for now."
Despite the cascading thoughts in their minds, everyone retreated, giving Jiang Chen ample space to restructure Cang Mountain.
At that moment, another fragment of Cang Mountain hosting living beings came hurtling over.
"Hmm?"
The Great Divine Transcendents present immediately noticed the unusual nature of this fragment and turned their gaze towards it.
On this shard, the living beings were much more familiar and recognizable. There were members of the Human Race, Demon Clan, and Innately nurtured living beings.
The techniques they practiced were either the Human Race’s Martial Dao or the Mystic Sect’s Immortal Dao. This indicated that their lineage shared roots with the Prehistoric World—and perhaps, they might even be descendants of gods standing among them.
"Without protection from supreme treasures or guardianship from great powers, they managed to cross the boundless void relying purely on Fate..."
"This..."
"Such great Fate, it could be described as Fate surging to the heavens. If nurtured well, many among them, even if unable to ascend fully to Innate Dao Sovereign, could still achieve the rank of Innate Dao Monarch with relative ease."
Having confirmed that these beings arrived safely in the Three Realms through sheer luck, the gazes of the Great Divine Transcendents grew startlingly bright.
When all’s said and done, what is the most critical factor in cultivation? It’s luck! If luck is sufficiently abundant, natural talent and aptitude become irrelevant. Even a mere pig could become a Great Luo Golden Immortal.
These living beings have already demonstrated through action that their luck is phenomenal, making them highly promising candidates for cultivation. Given such outstanding seedlings, who wouldn’t be tempted?
At that moment, upon the fragment of Cang Mountain, the local experts—who had huddled together in reaction to the sudden anomaly—looked out at the heavenly figures above, appearing as if manifestations of the Great Dao itself. They were struck speechless by fear.
The strongest among them was merely at the Golden Immortal level. When, in their lives, had they ever encountered beings of such overwhelming power? To remain upright and not collapse to the ground in reverence required incredible mental fortitude.
"A familiar aura..."
"This place seems like the Prehistoric World. I can sense the presence of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors."
"I am a descendant of Emperor Zhuan Xu, a lord under Great Shang. Please, human race powerhouses, save me!"
In the midst of the local experts, an elderly Golden Immortal from the Human Race suddenly exclaimed in agitation, seemingly having detected something.
"A descendant of Emperor Zhuan Xu, a Great Shang vassal?"
"I am the Human Emperor, a descendant of the Flame Emperor. Remain where you are; with me here, no one dares to lay a hand on our Human Race."
Upon hearing the self-proclamation, Jiang Chen couldn’t sit idle anymore and reassured them.
"I am a disciple of the Golden Pill Doctrine. I beg for senior’s rescue..."
"I am a disciple of the Mountain-Sea Doctrine. I beg for senior’s rescue..."
"I am a disciple of the Detached-Emotion Doctrine..."
Seeing the effectiveness of this Human Race Golden Immortal’s declaration, the others’ eyes lit up, and they quickly followed suit, eagerly proclaiming their own affiliations, fearing that if they delayed, they’d lose their opportunity to speak.
The Mystic Sect supposedly had three thousand doctrines, but in reality, there were far more—well into the tens of thousands. Only three thousand were renowned.
Despite the multitude of doctrines, they all shared a unified lineage. None emerged out of thin air; all traced back to clear origins.
Thus, even for lesser-known doctrines, tracing them back often revealed ties to certain Great Divine Transcendents as progenitors imparting teachings to their disciples.
Upon hearing the self-proclaimed affiliations, the Great Divine Transcendents quickly calculated and identified those disciples connected to their own lineage. Without hesitation, they began to act and retrieve their kin.
Jiang Chen could only watch without stopping them.
As long as they didn’t target the Human Race, Jiang Chen indeed had no grounds to intervene.
"Ancestor, I leave these people to you. Uncover their origins and the reasons for their appearance in the Three Realms. I must continue reshaping Cang Mountain and cannot attend to them for now."
Jiang Chen transmitted his thoughts secretly to Jiang Xuan, entrusting him to take away the Human Race individuals.
None of those present were weaklings; their actions were swift. In mere moments, all the living beings on this fragment vanished, taken away by the respective Great Divine Transcendents tied to them.
With the crowd cleared away, Jiang Chen resumed the restructuring of Cang Mountain. Fortunately, no additional incidents arose thereafter.
The Great Ancient Cang Mountain gradually regained its former grandeur under Jiang Chen’s efforts—majestic and vast, towering like a pillar that upheld the heavens.
As Cang Mountain was restructured, the nine-layered Yun Xiao Clouds soared higher and higher, extending outward into the depths of the void.
Yet, though the clouds extended outward, the trajectory wasn’t toward the internal layers of the Prehistoric World’s void but outward in another direction.
Guided by an unseen connection, they approached the Ancient Thunder Swamp.
Boom! Boom!
Endless thunder roared, creating shocking rumbles so loud that it seemed as though the Cangtian was shattering. Even several Great Divine Transcendents were startled into looking toward the nine-layered clouds.
The closer they drew to Thunder Marsh, the stronger the storms within Yun Xiao Clouds became. Previously, the divine lightning within these clouds could, at most, threaten an Innate Dao Sovereign.
But now, as more Innate divine lightning converged from Thunder Marsh, even Quasi-Saint powerhouses would find their scalps tingling with apprehension and dare not delve further into it.
Bathed in infinite lightning, the Prehistoric Thunder Treasure Tree began transmogrifying, unfurling new branches and growing at an incredible rate. At this point, it finally displayed the potential of being a top-tier Innate Spirit Root of the Prehistoric World.
"Where exactly has the Ancient Thunder Swamp been lost? Why is it so distant from the Three Realms?"
Jiang Chen had thought that, after reshaping Cang Mountain, the nine-layered Yun Xiao Clouds would have reached a point near Ancient Thunder Swamp. Yet, upon gazing toward it, he realized just how mistaken he had been.
