At least 30 million years ago, or even longer.
This gave Stephen Chow a jolt.
For a moment, I didn't know how to think.
"Thirty million years ago..."
Such a distance was unimaginable to me, and even more unimaginable was what the Four Heavenly Sacred Realms had experienced over such a long period of time.
Did the Desolate Empress wait for him in vain over the long years? Was that Yun Qingxi really her? Had her lifespan ended, or had she died and disappeared?
Zhou Xingdou dared not think about these things; it was all too unbelievable, even making him somewhat unable to believe it.
However, after a long silence, Zhou Xingdou's eyes lit up and he said:
"Do I still have a chance to go back 30 million years?"
The system denied it:
[Ding! Almost impossible. Last time, too many uncertainties caused the host to return to the Four Heavenly Sacred Domains of the past. Such a coincidence is almost impossible to replicate, even if the system were to recover to its full potential.]
The system's resolute answer caused Zhou Xingdou to lose his composure. He could not return to the Four Heavenly Sacred Domains of the past, and therefore could no longer change anything.
But Stephen Chow continued to ask:
Is Luo Bailian still alive?
[Ding! Although we don't know Luo Bailian's whereabouts or specific condition, we can be certain he's still alive. If Luo Bailian were dead, even if he couldn't be resurrected, this panel would still disappear.]
Seeing only a glimpse of the whole picture made Zhou Xingdou breathe a sigh of relief.
Since Luo Bailian is still alive, Empress Huangtian and Xiao Tianzuo are probably safe, since Luo Bailian is far inferior to the two in terms of talent and other factors.
As her own battle slave, Luo Bailian would never survive if anything happened to the Desolate Heaven Empress; he would even die before her.
Zhou Xingdou was also glad that he had left Luo Bailian in the Four Heavens Sacred Domain, otherwise he might not have even had the chance to get a glimpse of the whole picture.
After glancing at Luo Bailian's stats, Zhou Xingdou asked again:
Why is Luo Bailian's interface full of question marks?
[Ding! The host felt that returning to the original state was instantaneous, and the body did not change because the host was in a state of time stop when returning. However, in a sense, the system directly crossed an unknown amount of time.]
The system had long since lost contact with Luo Bailian's battle slave mark due to the passage of time. Furthermore, the system's current capabilities are limited. If Luo Bailian is in some forbidden area, or too far from the system, then the system will be unable to contact his battle slave mark and can only sense his life or death through the system's rules.
Zhou Xingdou also sighed. The system was not omnipotent. It had to span at least 30 million years of time, so it was no wonder that something went wrong.
The bad news is that he can no longer pinpoint the location of the Four Heavenly Sacred Domains, meaning it will be difficult for him to find Empress Huangtian and Xiao Tianzuo.
What puzzled him was that he had told Empress Huangtian and Xiao Tianzuo that the world he lived in was called the Primordial World.
If they break free from the constraints of the Four Heavenly Sacred Domains, at least thirty million years will have passed, and they should be searching for themselves, and they will certainly be able to find the Primordial World.
Zhou Xingdou also felt a chill run down his spine. Perhaps they had searched for him, or even found the Primordial World, but they did not know that he was a person from the future, so it was even more impossible for them to find him.
His only clue now is Yun Qingxi, whom he met in the Holy Land of the Universe. Regardless of whether she is the Empress of the Desolate Heaven, Zhou Xingdou must find her and unravel some mysteries.
"There is one more thing. Now that twenty years have passed, why has the great calamity of the primordial era not descended, and why has the will of Heaven not appeared?"
This was also one of Zhou Xingdou's doubts. What he saw in Tianxuan Sacred State was still the same as before, without any trace of a great calamity.
Moreover, given his current level of cultivation, he could vaguely sense that the Heavenly Heart had not appeared, nor was there a Heavenly Heart Emperor suppressing the world.
This is different from what the system program said at the time. The system program had said that the will of Heaven would definitely appear in the world within a year, and a great calamity would also come.
[Ding! The system program did not lie. If the host were in the Primordial Era, the Heavenly Heart would surely descend upon the world within a year due to the influence of the Great Calamity.]
Zhou Xingdou frowned. Although the system's words did not give a direct answer, they pointed out the key point.
The system said that if he hadn't been in trouble and had left the Primordial Era, the Heavenly Heart would have been affected by a great calamity within a year, descending upon the mortal world and opening the Heavenly Heart Emperor's Path.
On the contrary, Zhou Xingdou returned to the past after his accident and no longer existed in the primordial era, so the great calamity was not initiated and the Heavenly Heart was not affected, so it did not descend.
So the source of this great calamity is himself?
Zhou Xingdou felt a moment of dizziness:
"Did the great calamity begin because of me?"
[Ding! Didn't the host already have a plan in mind?]
Zhou Xing gave two bitter laughs.
The system's answer has proven that the great calamity originated from him.
No wonder Tianjizi insisted on exiling him back then; even when bullying the weak, he remained righteous and awe-inspiring.
In a sense, he did the right thing.
yes.
Reincarnation, rebirth, and a system—with these three anomalies empowering him, isn't he the root of all chaos?
To seize the destiny of heaven and earth and obliterate the will of heaven—isn't that the source of a great calamity?
Or perhaps, one is the great calamity itself?
After a long silence, Zhou Xingdou exited the system space. He didn't only have to find the Desolate Heaven Empress and Xiao Tianzuo; there was a whole host of other things waiting for him to take over in the Chu Yuan.
He had left them so many contingency plans back then, so at least on the path to breaking free from the constraints of the world and becoming an existence equivalent to an emperor, there were no longer any obstacles.
As for the road ahead, Zhou Xingdou didn't know. Even if he did, and even without the separation between the past and the future, it would be difficult for him to help them.
Now, I can only hope that they are still alive and well, and that we can reunite when I have the ability to connect to Luo Bailian's battle slave mark or find Yun Qingxi's whereabouts.
Besides, at least 30 million years have passed, so there's no use in him being anxious. He might as well deal with the present matter first.
As for the even more bizarre calamities, he didn't want to think about them. There was no point in thinking about them now. Whether he was the calamity itself or its source, the answer would be clear on the day the calamity arrived.
Princess Iron Fan noticed that Zhou Xingdou had woken up and immediately went up to ask:
"My lord, have you rested well?"
Zhou Xingdou nodded. He didn't intend to tell Princess Teshan and the others about these things, nor was it necessary.
"Alright, let's go back now."
But just as Zhou Xingdou was about to set off, a huge buzzing sound rang out in the void, followed by a celestial melody that filled the sky!
Ahead of Zhou Xingdou and his group, dazzling celestial light, like a waterfall, poured down, and a majestic figure of light condensed from within it.
The moment the light and shadow appeared, all was silent. The Immortal Wheel Bagua Diagram slowly rose, its power surpassing all laws and principles, even surpassing the power of an emperor, causing the expressions of Fahai and Princess Iron Fan to freeze instantly.
