"...As time goes on, the speed at which the ancient gods differentiate into planes gradually cannot keep up with the development of the world. New gods occasionally enter the mortal world. When they read novels, they are moved by the wisdom of all living beings and work together to establish the laws of small worlds. Whenever the will of intelligent beings to give birth to something accumulates to a certain limit, a small world can be truly born and merge into the endless starry universe of the Heavenly Evolution World. The quality of this small world depends on the choice of the person who builds it. Some come with their own plane, star, and universe, while others are just a single star."
"After that, powerful cultivators emerged in great numbers. Ascended cultivators could use the laws to varying degrees, and the top cultivators could even control the laws, making them comparable to gods. Among all cultivators in the world, only one could receive this honor, and that was the Emperor of Immortals."
"However, cultivators can become immortals but not gods, because they do not understand that becoming a god requires not only cultivation, but also the determination to protect living beings, heaven and earth, and all things, to treat all beings equally, and not to act arbitrarily or recklessly."
Long Xun sneered for no reason as he said this. Creatures as insignificant as ants, once they control too much power, think they are superior and forget to respect life. The life and death of mortals are none of their business, and they even dare to do things that lead to the extinction of their race for their own selfish desires.
Which of those cultivators isn't striving for power and control over their destiny? Which of them isn't seeking a more carefree life? Which of them isn't driven by a yearning and greed for immortality?
Perhaps some people are simply steadfast in their pursuit of the Way, but they are far too few among practitioners.
Is Long Xun powerful? Is Mu Feng powerful?
But even if they are angered, they will only retaliate against those who dare to lay a hand on them, and will not involve others.
Even though Long Xun once slaughtered 90% of the beings in the Tianyan World, it was because those beings had been blinded by greed, and none of them were innocent.
Otherwise, Long Xun wouldn't have killed nine-tenths of the living beings back then, but all of them. Otherwise, Mu Feng wouldn't have refrained from stopping him despite her reluctance.
—If those who consider themselves powerful lose their sense of awe and act recklessly, it's better to let them understand that there's a sword hanging over their heads, watching them every moment.
Long Xun only paused for a moment before continuing his story.
"Later, the Vermilion Bird clan was dissatisfied that they and the Phoenix clan shared the same ancestral god bloodline, yet they only became immortal beasts. They rebelled and went to war with the Phoenix clan. After Mu Chunfeng killed the divine beast Phoenix, he devoured the divine spark and became a divine beast, thus arousing the greed of the immortals who had not become gods for a long time."
"The war between the three realms was thus ignited, affecting countless planes, and Qi's reincarnation also perished as a result. Xun was enraged and took action to stop the killing with killing, thus ending the war. He also established a rule that after a god dies, his divine essence would automatically be returned to heaven and earth, thus ending the method of proving one's Dao by killing gods."
"Xun created only one dragon in his lifetime, infusing it with his own bloodline. After hatching, he named it Tan. Tan cultivated diligently and later became the Azure Dragon, which, together with the Vermilion Bird, Black Tortoise, and White Tiger, is known as the Four Divine Beasts. After the war, it mainly saved planes and worlds on the verge of destruction and protected the world from restoration. Therefore, it is also known as the Guardian Divine Beast."
"Ah Tan, he is indeed your elder brother." Only then did Long Xun finish recounting the events of Tianyan Star Universe.
He stopped talking, but heard no movement around him. Long Xun turned around and saw that Shu Naicha had already crawled back to the ground, staring blankly at the gradually dissipating clouds in the sky.
What he heard today completely shattered his worldview. He was originally just a cute and harmless little hamster. Even after being assigned to an unusual owner, he mutated, gaining an incredibly long lifespan and the ability to cultivate. Now, he learned that his owner, who had just become his father, was actually such an awesome being! He also had an equally awesome older brother! And an awesome uncle, Mu Feng!
What's with this feeling of suddenly going from an ordinary person to a rich kid?!
The pie falling from the sky was too huge. Shunacha didn't feel any surprise, only immense pressure from being crushed by a mountain of pies.
—Not to mention, his older brother does something as noble as protecting the world, while he just got into a fight, broke Mount Buzhou, and almost destroyed the world. He's practically a god in his own right...
Waaaaah, can we rewind and start over now? I promise I'll train hard and not run around anymore, Father! QAQ
