When Li Fan transmigrated into a new world, his life seemed unremarkable. He was moderately well-off, with a wife and children, but nothing extraordinary. Everything changed upon his death, when he...
Chapter 1734: Hundreds of Millions of Years of History
Lianshan, a civilization of mountains and seas.
Return to the sea, the creatures of the mountains and seas.
Taiyi is the great way of mountains and seas.
The Three Saints can roughly represent the mountains and seas themselves.
Under Li Fan's encouragement, the Three Saints put all the saints in the Xuan Ji Ring into their own long memories.
It did not originate from the time when the mountain and the sea were separated.
Rather, it began when the primordial fairyland fell apart and the mountains and seas gradually merged.
Because it is an experiential memory, it has not differentiated into a real individual.
All the saints gathered together like green dots of light.
What the three saints see and hear is like three screens of light, located in front of the saints.
Although it was just "watching", the Three Saints used their unfathomable power to give people the feeling of "being there".
It's almost the same as my own experience.
Through the eyes of the three saints, they vaguely glimpsed a corner of the real Taichu Immortal Realm. In the past, it was just an empty concept, but now it gradually became concrete and clear.
The Taichu Immortal Realm was born and evolved after the mountains and seas were separated and when the mountains and seas were first created.
Perhaps it was because the [True God] was immeasurable and the mountains and seas could not consume and swallow all of it. Or perhaps when the True God fell, the mountains and seas did not take all of it.
In short, in the Taichu Immortal Realm, there are many strange beings born and raised by nature, and some even feed on Tao. Living beings fight with each other, and there are also those who covet mountains and seas to swallow up magical encounters.
All things compete and thrive.
No boundaries, no constraints, no taboos.
Who dies and who lives, who survives and who perishes.
It all depends on one's own ability.
It is unknown how long the Taichu Immortal Realm has existed. But the mountains and seas cannot last forever, and they finally met their end today.
Countless tiny black holes appeared in every corner of the Taichu Immortal Realm.
Like a terrifying whirlpool, it swallows everything around it.
The foundational principles that built the Taichu Immortal Realm disappeared in an instant.
All living creatures are running around trying to survive, no longer caring about fighting.
Green spots of light flickered continuously, and the thoughts of the saints intertwined.
"The Taichu Immortal Realm is such a magnificent and majestic existence, giving birth to countless great ways and creatures. But I didn't expect it to fall apart in one day as the mountains and sea merged together!"
"No matter how extraordinary it is, it is just an attempt by Shanhai. When Shanhai realizes his own destiny, it is after merging with Shanhai. It will naturally be abandoned."
"Because of a thought of mountains and seas, I was born. Because of a thought of mountains and seas, I was destroyed..."
“I didn’t expect that the three saints would feel fear in their hearts.”
"This scene is very similar to the struggle we experienced before Daoyan came. We have been through everything, but we didn't expect that our predecessors had already experienced it billions of years ago. It seems that the mountains and seas are like a huge reincarnation."
…
The Immortal Realm of Taichu fell apart, like a storm, mercilessly sweeping away the remaining creatures within. Even those as strong as the Three Saints could only be like ants in the wind, being blown and hit by the wind and rain. They were completely unable to resist the might of the mountains and seas, and could only try their best to flap their wings to maintain their survival.
The saints who had just been in the mood to discuss with each other, were suddenly caught in a storm of collapsing mountains and seas as time passed, and slowly all lost the ability to speak.
Only then did they realize how fortunate it was to receive the protection of the Taichu Immortal Realm.
It is similar to Dao Yan’s ability to eliminate all disasters, but the essence is different.
This storm is a way for the mountains and seas to make full use of their resources and eliminate dissidents.
All that which originated from God, but which They had not previously absorbed, is now completely taken back.
There is nothing else except mountains and seas.
There is no one who is above the mountains and the seas.
If you want to survive the storm, you can only become part of the mountains and the sea.
The storm lasted for tens of millions of years before it subsided.
If they had not just observed it in the memories of the Three Saints, but had experienced it personally, I'm afraid that only one in ten of the saints would have survived this calamity.
As if all the essence from God had been absorbed, the mountains and seas finally took shape.
The infinite sea gives birth to all possibilities.
There is no concept of time. The stars, the cycle of birth and death, are all constantly evolving and dissipating in it.
Shangfang Mountain stands tall and majestic. Although it is invisible and formless, it represents eternal energy and cornerstone. Like a pillar, it is because of the existence of Shangfang Mountain that the infinite possibilities in the infinite sea can continue.
The mountains and the sea are interdependent. They seem to be independent of each other, yet they are interdependent.
"Everyone, this initial mountain and sea... seems to be very different from what we saw later?"
"The mountains and seas of the future, the so-called infinite possibilities, still exist within the limitations of the long river of time, just like thousands of great rivers flowing together. But the mountains and seas at this time..."
"Possibilities are like waves and ripples in a quiet pond. They appear and disappear, but do not affect the infinite sea itself. Compared with the mountains and seas in the present world, the original state of the mountains and seas is undoubtedly more stable. Why should they be forced to merge?" Questions surged in the hearts of the saints.
However, their inner thoughts are only visible to bystanders. The real creatures in the midst of it are now focused on only one thing.
That is to survive!
Compared to the paradise where there were no taboos in the past, the rules of the mountains and seas are now extremely strict.
Even a little cruel.
No matter how powerful one is, one cannot live forever. One can only live and die like the countless possibilities that are constantly evolving and disappearing in the infinite sea, with no control over life and death.
Even though he once dominated the Taichu Immortal Realm, he can only die quietly now.
The new rules of the mountains and seas were extremely cruel to the creatures of the past, but they created a new and sufficiently stable order.
The birth and death of possibilities seem to follow some unpredictable law. Although there are stars in the pond, the water is always as calm as before.
The mountain above is like a pillar beside a pond.
The mountains and the sea depend on each other in balance and harmony.
Most of their former companions have all perished. The Three Saints are now dormant in the mountains and seas, either having already returned to them or waiting for their chance.
The mountains and sea were unusually calm at first.
The possibilities for derivation are also extremely simple.
There are not even living beings in the strict sense, just life forms such as algae.
However, in the infinite sea, the light spots flickered differently.
The derived forms of possibilities are gradually becoming richer.
In some possibilities, intelligent life began to appear.
The three saints, who were struggling to survive under the strict rules of the mountains and seas, took the opportunity to escape into them in order to find a respite.
Compared to the newly born ignorant creatures, the three saints from the Taichu Immortal Realm are nothing less than true "saints".
But the Three Saints did not try to intervene and just watched in silence.
When he realized that the possibility was about to disappear, he left in time and survived in the infinite sea.
I don't know how long this went on.
If nothing unexpected happened, the mountains and seas would perhaps remain peaceful like this forever.
On this day, the Infinite Sea suddenly began to boil and become turbulent without any warning.
The sea of stars fills the sky like a bright mirror, seeming to reflect the scenery beyond the mountains and sea.
The three saints looked up, hoping to take the opportunity to spy.
Although I only saw some fragmented images, I instantly understood why the mountains and seas were in turmoil!
After the mountains and seas swallowed the gods, they wanted to maintain an "eternal" state where no time passed.
Without beginning or end, nature can last forever.
It seems to have been successful.
but……
At this moment, beyond the mountains and seas, time is still flowing quietly!
Without Shanhai noticing before!
It was as if there was a pair of eyes watching them coldly from beginning to end.
