All People: I Slay Gods with Martial Arts

167: Chapter 166 The Story of the Lord of the Ruins”Little friend, let this old man tell you a story.”

Ye Xiu was stunned for a moment, then replied, ”I would be honored to hear it.”

The old man revealed a hint of reminiscence.

He spoke slowly: ”Once upon a time, there was a world, a place of Chaos, where all living beings lived in Star Domains devoid of light.”

”Back then, there was no method to Cultivate; there was only the law of the jungle, where one relied on consuming flesh and blood to improve their blood Qi and strengthen their physique.”

”In that Chaos Star Domain, there was a young man who did not know the immensity of heaven and earth. After witnessing that incredibly bloody dark age, he could not bear to see his kin living like livestock, so he strove to change the era.”

”Unfortunately, heaven did not grant his wish.”

”The young man’s intentions were good, but in the face of that cruel era, no one could bring about change.”

”It was not until a figure like a celestial god appeared that a glimmer of hope emerged in that era, which was like Hell.”

”In order to follow by the side of that celestial god, the young man desperately hunted for flesh and blood. After enduring countless hardships, he finally grew to a level where he was worthy of following that celestial god.”

”That Lord was very strong, unimaginably strong.”

”In that world of Chaos and nothingness, that Lord brought a glimmer of life to that desperate world.”

”In just a thousand years, that era, which was like Hell, was ended by the Lord, bringing order to the Chaos World.”

”Ten thousand years passed.”

”That Lord suddenly told the young man that he wanted to create a world within the Chaos World, a world with sunlight and Spiritual Qi, so that all living beings would no longer need to rely on killing each other and devouring one another to become stronger.”

”Faced with such shocking remarks, the young man believed, because these words were spoken by the Lord.”

”Another ten thousand years passed. The young man grew old, but the celestial god Lord remained strong. In order to continue following the Lord’s side, the young man slaughtered an entire Star Domain and lived a second life.”

”Regarding this, the celestial god Lord did not say much.”

”Another one hundred thousand years passed.”

”In order to survive and witness the world the Lord spoke of, the young man slaughtered thirteen consecutive Star Domains just to keep going.”

”On that day, the Chaos roared, and the entire world trembled.”

”It was also on that day that a world with sunlight and Spiritual Qi was born.”

”Supported by the Spiritual Qi, the young man, who was about to die of old age again, achieved a Breakthrough and gained power unprecedented in history. But the more this happened, the more unreachable the celestial god Lord became.”

”One million years later.”

”A long river was torn apart by the celestial god Lord, and he vanished, disappearing into a vast and boundless River of Time.”

”During the years when the celestial god Lord vanished, the young man ruled that world and became the new master of the Main World.”

”Over endless years, the young man’s strength became increasingly terrifying, but the young man was selfish and did not pass down the method of immortality.”

”In that era where years were not counted, a very, very long time passed.”

”Until the young man began to decay, the celestial god Lord returned once again. This time, the Lord did not shine with celestial light; what returned was a corpse.”

”The Lord’s corpse seemed to possess consciousness.”

”When falling into the endless darkness, it created this world within memory, allowing the living beings of the world to have a place to rest after death, rather than simply perishing.”

”The young man eventually decayed completely, and when he revived again, he had already arrived in the world created by the Lord.”

The old man said a lot in one breath.

Ye Xiu listened very attentively.

After a long silence, he asked, ”That young man, is it you, Senior?”

”Yes, this old man died and came to the world in the Lord’s memory, living here forever.”

”Then what is guarding the outside?”

”An Evil Intent, the Evil Intent born from this old man slaughtering all living beings.”

The old man felt a bit sentimental, and with a sigh, he continued, ”How is the Main World now?”

Ye Xiu looked at the old man before him, whose divine light was brilliant, and combined with the information he knew from Fa Na, he deduced some things the old man had not mentioned.

At the end of the old man’s life.

He must have devoured all living beings again to seek immortality.

In the Main World of that time, perhaps only Gu had survived.

After a few seconds of silence.

Ye Xiu slowly replied, ”Over endless years, too many terrifying experts have been born in the Main World. They traced the source of the River of Time and entered the Boundary Sea.”

”Are those remains outside those experts?”

”You know?”

”This old man and the Evil Intent are one; what it knows, I naturally know.”

”Then our conversation, will Senior’s Evil Intent also know?” Ye Xiu frowned slightly; if so, this would be difficult.

Even if he went out, he was afraid he wouldn’t be able to deal with the Evil Intent in the passage.

Hehe...

The old man laughed, ”Little friend, rest assured. In this world, no one can probe in; even this old man’s Evil Intent will not know anything.”

”This Junior can rest easy then. After all, Senior’s Evil Intent is ridiculously strong; it should already be in the Venerable Realm.”

”Venerable Realm?”

The old man was stunned, ”Little friend, could you explain in detail?”

”Senior already possesses the power of heaven and earth; clearly, you have stepped into the Supreme Realm. In this Realm, there are also Rank divisions.”

Afterward.

Ye Xiu explained in detail the Realm divisions he had obtained from Fa Na.

After hearing the description.

The old man pondered for a long time.

Then he said solemnly, ”You mean, Gu, was still alive back then?”
