Chapter 978: Chapter 978: The Change of the Heavenly Dao

”Don’t underestimate even a trace of Earth’s origin. It’s also an origin, and it’ll be very helpful for you to comprehend the later realms.”

”I doubt it’s that simple!”

”You’ve figured it out, so I’ll be frank. If you refine this trace of origin, should Earth face a crisis, you’ll feel it and be able to help us immediately.”

”I knew it! Aren’t you afraid I might seize Earth’s origin for myself?”

”You are Mu Chen. I trust you.”

”Looks like you know me quite well.”

”When it comes to those who wish for Earth’s safety the most, you’d definitely be in the top three, so I trust you.”

”Tree Ancestor, is your strength really that weak?” Mu Chen was puzzled. The Tree Ancestor, who guards the origin, shouldn’t be this weak.

”The weaker I appear, the safer it is. In places you can’t see, I can’t count the number of people I’ve slain,” Tree Ancestor stated seriously.

”No wonder you’ve always given me a sense of danger, even after I broke through the Infinite Realm.”

”You’ve said enough. Here you go.” Tree Ancestor then sent a colorless energy to Mu Chen, unwilling to say more.

”Is this the origin?”

”Hmm, you’ll know once you refine it.”

”Then let’s see what refining it does.” Mu Chen sat down and began refining.

As he started refining, Mu Chen’s aura surged wildly, and the realm seemed to unravel seamlessly, deepening Mu Chen’s comprehension.

After refining, Mu Chen could sense where the Earth’s origin aura was. The growth of all things, natural changes—Mu Chen was immersed in a state of enlightenment.

”To gain Earth’s acknowledgment, to perceive the growth of all things and the cycle of life, this is enlightenment! This kid’s future achievements might even surpass the Emperor Realm. It’s astonishing that in this barren era, Earth can produce such a genius. Strange, truly strange,” Tree Ancestor said, shocked.

Thus, time passed—one day, two days—until on the third day, Mu Chen finally woke up. Immediately, countless soul powers surged into Mu Chen’s mind, and his soul aura began to climb—middle stage Infinite, peak middle stage Infinite, late stage Infinite, all the way to the peak realm of Infinite before finally calming down. This enlightenment had greatly benefited Mu Chen.

”Thank you, you truly did not deceive me,” Mu Chen said, looking at Tree Ancestor.

”The benefits weren’t as terrifying as you imagined. It’s Earth acknowledging you; only because Earth is willing to communicate with you did you gain such insights.”

”Earth willingly communicating with me? It seems quite miraculous.”

”Some things are beyond my understanding, but I believe you’ll know in the future.”

”Perhaps! Then I’ll leave now.”

”Wait, what do you plan to do about the insect beasts?”

”I thought you wouldn’t bring up the insect beasts. My plan is simple: to confront each challenge as it comes.”

”Countless insect beasts; even if your strength defies the heavens, it won’t be enough.”

”Then what do you suggest?”

”You should seek out the Heavenly Dao.”

”Heavenly Dao? Where is the Heavenly Dao?”

”Seek the masses; perhaps the masses know more.”

”The masses? Where would the masses be?”

”The masses are hidden in the void. Just say you wish to discuss the insect beasts with him; he has no reason not to meet you.”

”Understood. Thank you for the information,” Mu Chen said calmly.

”Telling you is also helping myself, so no need to thank me.”

”I’ll be off then,” Mu Chen said and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

After Mu Chen left, he arrived in the void and said directly, ”Masses, I’m looking for you.”

”What is it?” At this moment, a person appeared out of nowhere from the void. This person was an old man.

”It’s about the Heavenly Dao and the insect beasts.”

”Earth won’t be in danger for the time being; you don’t need to know much.”

”What do you mean?” Mu Chen frowned, his expression changing; the masses gave him a different vibe.

”Evil God, just honestly cultivate. Don’t meddle in these matters, and don’t think about seeking the Main Space Origin. Strength is everything.”

”No, the origin is everything. Only by controlling the origin can one control everything,” Mu Chen retorted.

”I’ve said all that I can; you should take care,” the masses said and vanished in the blink of an eye.

”What’s happened to the masses? It feels like he’s become a different person,” Mu Chen’s expression turned serious, sensing something unusual.

”I should go back to Tree Ancestor and ask about the situation.” Mu Chen’s expression changed, and he immediately returned to Tree Ancestor to confront him.

”What’s going on?” Tree Ancestor saw Mu Chen hastily appear and was a bit puzzled.

”The masses feel like a different person and said nothing. He even warned me.”

”Becoming a different person? Impossible! Like me, he’s restricted by the curse. How could he say such things, completely disregarding the curse power?”

”But he has indeed changed.”

”Perhaps it’s related to the Heavenly Dao.”

”Tell me everything you know.”

”Fine. Since it’s come to this, there’s no harm in telling you. In the Main Space, the Heavenly Dao is the strongest now, can you understand this?”

”I know. The Heavenly Dao controls the rules, and the energy blocking the insect beasts is likely also the power of the Heavenly Dao, making its strength evident.”

”Do you know why the Heavenly Dao hasn’t wiped out everything in an instant?”

”What do you mean?”

”Because of the curse, you should understand.”

”The curse controls the Heavenly Dao?”

”Hmm, that’s why no powerful beings can descend upon Earth, and even if they do, if they intend to harm Earth, they could be wiped out instantly.”

”I see, understood.”

”It seems that the Heavenly Dao might want to break free from the constraints of the Main Space, to escape the curse’s control. If the Heavenly Dao gains this ability, naturally the masses under it would also reap benefits.”

”Understood, a person who never wants to be controlled—if freed from control, becomes a different person.”

”Just so, it’s good that you understand.”

”What do we do now?”

”It’s not yet at that stage; after all, the Heavenly Dao may not have escaped the curse or other power constraints yet, and you’re helpless as well.”

”Are you telling me if one day the Heavenly Dao breaks free, Earth and the Main Space could be destroyed in an instant?”

”Maybe so! But I also don’t know what to do.”

”The urgent task is to find the Main Space Origin,” Mu Chen’s expression changed, for the first time eager to locate the Main Space Origin.

”Kid, it’s all up to you. No one knows about the origin.”

”Tree Ancestor, if one day the insect beasts invade, and the Heavenly Dao destroys everything, what’s your plan?”

”No resistance, just await death.”

”Tree Ancestor, I hope you remain hopeful. The future may not be so bleak,” Mu Chen said and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

”Calamity! Is the Qi Fortune of the Main Space truly at its end?”
