'Sky' sat on the top of the mountain without moving.
After Rat Lord roared and cursed in the direction of "Sky" like thunder, he rushed back to Chu Tian's shoulder, panting heavily, and cursed in a low voice: "I suffered a loss, I was fooled, I lost money..."
"What is that?" Chu Tian looked at Master Shu curiously.
Zi Tianzun, Chu Jie and others also gathered around. The seven elders of Gongyang stared at Shu Ye with sharp eyes. Luo'er grabbed Chu Tian's sleeve tightly, and put her little face less than half an foot in front of Shu Ye. She squinted her eyes and kept blowing air on Shu Ye's face, making Shu Ye's silver hair shake.
"Luo'er, don't act naughty. Master Rat is in a bad mood!" Master Rat swung his tail in annoyance. The long pointed tail swept across Luo'er's nose. Luo'er blinked fiercely a few times, sneezed awkwardly, and rolled her eyes at Master Rat in annoyance.
"Master Rat, what is that? A fragment of the primordial... thing? What is the primordial?" Chu Tian looked at Master Rat in astonishment.
"The original beginning... or, the original beginning..." A dark golden light with a strong ancient atmosphere flashed rapidly in Rat Lord's eyes. Countless dark golden runes rolled out from the depths of his pupils, churning like boiling porridge.
"It's a long story!" After pondering for a long time, Master Shu sat on Chu Tian's shoulder and hit his head heavily with the crutch in his hand, making a loud muffled sound: "Master Shu has forgotten all these things that can be forgotten... To be honest, I don't want to think too much about sad things, but in the end... it still forces Master Shu to think about these messy and trivial things."
Mr. Shu sighed, his eyes blurry and he began to talk to himself.
His tone was disordered and the word order was all mixed up, but everyone could understand what he was saying.
What kind of existence is "heaven"?
Take this complete continent as an example. Before, it was the Tianhe World, which was divided into the three heavens of Supreme Heaven, Holy Spirit Heaven, and Daluo Heaven. Before these three heavens coexisted, this Tianhe World was a complete world of infinite heaven.
Whether it is the Taikoo Wuliangtian or the even older Taichu Wuliangtian, it can be regarded as a complete life, a huge life whose structure and physiological functions are completely different from those of life in the conventional sense.
And creatures like humans, dragons, phoenixes, unicorns, birds and beasts, flowers, birds, insects, fish, and even flowers, plants, and trees are roughly equivalent to parasites or bacteria inside and outside this huge life body, right? This is probably the reason, so "Tian" calls Chu Tian and others ants, which is actually a high evaluation of them.
To be honest, Chu Tian and his group's status in this huge life form is roughly at the level of microorganisms, which is still a long way from the level of "ants".
And "heaven" is the spiritual wisdom of the self condensed by this huge life.
When 'Sky' was first born, it was chaotic and ignorant, without self-awareness. As time passed, it gradually 'awoke' and gradually acquired 'emotions' similar to those of humans - similar but not, it was 'emotions' that were similar but not, comparable to the seven emotions and six desires, but more bland, indifferent, harsh and ruthless!
Whether it was the great catastrophe of the heaven and earth in the beginning of the infinite heaven, or the many great changes in the heaven and earth in the ancient infinite heaven, they were actually driven by "heaven" behind the scenes.
Only Heaven knows the reason. However, these directly led to the great changes in the environment of Heaven and Earth, the extinction of hundreds of millions of races, and the great changes in the protagonists of Heaven and Earth. There is no doubt that these were all done by Heaven.
Now Chu Tian and the others know that 'Tian' pursues immortality and 'eternity'!
Yes, although the life span of 'Heaven' is extremely long, it is not an 'immortal' existence and will also fall. Before this 'Heaven', according to the broken memories in Rat Lord's mind, this world has experienced at least 'thirty-six generations' of 'Heaven'!
The ruling process of each generation of "Heaven" is a "great cycle of destiny"!
The beginning of a "great reincarnation cycle of destiny" always begins with the birth and growth of a new "heaven"; the end of a great reincarnation cycle also always ends with the complete collapse and demise of a "heaven", with the entire world returning to chaos.
Therefore, the lifespan of "Heaven", no matter how many trillions of years it spans, or how many years are as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges, has a limit!
What did the heaven and earth look like before this generation of 'heaven', before thirty-six generations of 'heaven'?
Lord Rat doesn’t know either.
But the former master of Lord Rat, the previous generation of 'Heaven' before this generation of 'Heaven', was a more humane 'Heaven' than the current one, who even condensed his physical body, mated with ordinary creatures and had children with them. He was an 'old scholar' who liked archaeology.
According to the research of that 'Heaven', he had gone deep into the outer void countless times and dug up countless strange relics. The piece of original fragment on Master Rat's body was mined from one of the relics.
According to the research and inference of that 'Heaven', before thirty-six generations of 'Heaven', the heaven and the earth were in chaos. There was an indescribable thing, whose size, existence mode, and origin were unknown. It was mysterious and indescribable, and was named 'Taichu Yuanshi' or 'Original Taichu'. It was the beginning of everything and the origin of all things.
That thing existed in the chaos and nothingness for who knows how many years, and suddenly one day it exploded, and then there came into being the familiar heaven and earth universe, the worlds of all sizes, billions of lives, and the continuous rule of thirty-six generations of "heaven".
The fragments of the original primordial past are extremely rare and precious, and seem to contain some unspeakable secrets.
The previous generation of 'Heaven' was eventually annihilated, and when the entire world returned to chaos, the previous generation of 'Heaven' had used up countless thoughts and efforts, but ultimately could not escape the fate of annihilation and destruction.
On the contrary, it was Rat Lord's nature. He swallowed countless things from the treasure house of the previous generation of 'Heaven' and also swallowed that piece of the original primordial fragment into his stomach. He actually lived through this great reincarnation cycle safely and personally experienced the whole process of this world re-opening itself and this generation of 'Heaven' gradually evolving from the void and chaos!
"I've lived too long, my brain doesn't have enough capacity, I remember too many things... I'm sad, I'm crying, so I'm used to deleting some of my useless memories..." Rat sighed with his face drooping: "I really don't know how this guy knew about the existence of the Primordial Fragment? Did he find the secret of the Primordial Fragment? This is really terrible."
Chu Jie on the side blinked his eyes and asked Master Shu curiously: "Master Shu, what did you do in the previous generation of 'Heaven'? Purely... a pet?"
Lord Shu suddenly raised his head, stared at Chu Jie proudly and glared at him fiercely: "Lord Shu is a full-time steward who looks after the treasury for him!"
Chu Tian, Luo Er, and everyone else were stunned!
Let Lord Rat be the chief steward of the treasury?
The 'Heaven' of the previous generation really had a broad and kind heart!
