999 Kinds of God-level Identities, Various Ways to Beat the Protagonist

420: Rebuilding GloryUpon hearing the System’s voice, Chu Feng didn’t immediately check the ultimate reward he received.

Instead, he calmly stared directly at the blurry human silhouette.

“No more pretending?” Chu Feng asked, a slight smirk playing on his lips.

Ji嫣然 slowly shook her head, “I’ve never pretended.”

“When you touched the time divine flower, my true spirit was just awakened.”

“What’s more…”

“As your Protector, it’s not hard to guess that I incarnated as the System.”

Her emotions were very calm, without any particular surprise.

As the former Great Secretary of the Yan Huang Ancient Clan, Ji嫣然 possessed far greater composure than ordinary people.

“Then, up until now, can you explain the whole story to me?”

“What exactly is this System?”

“And what is its purpose?”

Chu Feng stared directly at Ji嫣然, asking each word clearly.

Even with a rough guess in his mind, he still wanted to hear Ji嫣然’s answer with his own ears.

Ji嫣然 didn’t answer immediately, but after a moment of silence, she said faintly to Chu Feng, “The Yan Huang Ancient Clan was annihilated under my watch.”

“To be honest, after so many years, I still feel very unwilling.”

“I wielded the Reincarnation Great Dao, and since my birth in the Yan Huang Ancient Clan, I have been the strongest Genius of all time; even the First Emperor and the Two Emperors were not as talented as I am.”

“If nothing unexpected happened, the Yan Huang Ancient Clan should have risen again under my leadership, restoring its former glory.”

Chu Feng shook his head.

If nothing unexpected happens, it usually means something unexpected will happen.

He didn’t interrupt, quietly listening to Ji嫣然’s story.

“It’s truly a pity.”

“The era I was born into was simply too dark.”

“So dark that… even the Yan Huang Ancient Clan had already decayed and fallen.”

“All Geniuses who wanted to rise and succeed were suppressed by the top God Emperors within the clan.

These rigid and stubborn old-timers were too foolish, believing that their inability to Breakthrough to Supreme God Emperor was due to insufficient resources.”

“They frantically plundered, frantically wiped out one great era after another, and even wanted to seize all the Opportunities within the clan, wanting to squeeze them dry and convert them for their own use.”

“The result of doing so was useless.”

“Not only did it make the Yan Huang Ancient Clan increasingly weak, but it also caused more and more ethnic groups in that great era to form grudges with the Yan Huang Ancient Clan.”

“In that era, our Yan Huang Ancient Clan was even given the name Demon Race by other ethnic groups.”

Ji嫣然 let out a bitter laugh, her tone filled with disappointment.

“Demon Race, that name fits perfectly.”

“No wonder this world is so hostile towards me; was it at that time that the entire Yan Huang Ancient Clan was cursed by Heaven and Earth, and loathed by all living beings?”

Chu Feng suddenly asked.

“That’s right.”

“With the birth of the name Demon Race, the gears of Karma began to turn.”

“Our Yan Huang Ancient Clan’s situation became worse and more difficult.”

“Even the Daos that once had good relations with us abandoned us one after another, siding with the myriad races.”

“Even if I rose up from the cracks, constantly sweeping away the gloom within the clan, suppressing those disgusting old stubborn people who were like maggots.”

“I still couldn’t catch up with the decline of the Yan Huang Ancient Clan.”

“The Original Host’s rise was the last straw that broke the Yan Huang Ancient Clan’s back.”

Ji嫣然’s tone was calm as she explained the situation of that year to Chu Feng.

Chu Feng nodded, “Heroes emerge in chaotic times.

The Yan Huang Ancient Clan was not a good thing, so naturally someone would take up the banner of resisting the Yan Huang Ancient Clan.

The Original Host came into being in response to the times, so there’s no problem with that.”

“Yes.”

“The Original Host’s appearance directly led to the increasing decline of the Yan Huang Ancient Clan’s Luck.”

“The ancient emperor within the clan, who had been confronting me, was also severely wounded by the Original Host.”

“The ancient emperor was severely wounded.”

“Coupled with the fact that I had previously killed over a thousand God Emperors within the clan in one go, the entire Yan Huang Ancient Clan was almost on the verge of collapse.”

“The Yan Huang Ancient Clan’s Guardian Soul—the supreme heavenly dao—also began to shatter.”

“At that time, I knew the Yan Huang Ancient Clan was finished.”

“I was also finished.”

When Ji嫣然 spoke of this, her calm tone finally showed some ripples.

She hated the Yan Huang Ancient Clan.

If the era she was born into had been brighter, if the clan elders and ancient emperors she faced had been normal people, then the Yan Huang Ancient Clan could have completely restored its glory under her leadership, and she would have become the third Supreme God Emperor of the Yan Huang Ancient Clan.

Unfortunately, there are no such ‘ifs.’

Ji嫣然 encountered the corrupt and fallen Yan Huang Ancient Clan, and she encountered an even more Prodigious Original Host.

Everything shattered, the Yan Huang Ancient Clan reached its end, and with her Karma intertwined with the Yan Huang Ancient Clan, it was impossible for her to escape the cage; there was only one path: destruction.

Chu Feng nodded, gazing at Ji嫣然, “And then?”

And then?

These were just Ji嫣然’s experiences; his previous self had no sense of presence in them.

The origin and meaning of the System had also not been explained.

Ji嫣然 gave a bitter smile, “Then, you appeared.”

“At that time, the Yan Huang Ancient Clan was less than a hundred epochs away from collapse.”

“The ancient emperor was severely wounded, and I barely managed to sustain things.

The clan’s supreme heavenly dao collapsed, and infinite negative Luck condensed within the clan.

All the God Emperors within the clan used a monstrous Divine-Grade formation to condense this negative Luck onto an infant formed from a fragment of the supreme heavenly dao.”

“This infant was you.”

“An extremely evil existence, extremely rejected by the world.”

“As soon as you were born, you took on all the negative Luck of the entire Yan Huang Ancient Clan.”

Chu Feng’s mouth twitched, “So I’m the scapegoat, huh?”

“My body is so small, I can’t carry such a huge black pot.”

Regarding his previous self, even before entering the time divine flower to observe the future, he knew it would definitely not be simple.

When he heard that he was formed from a fragment of the supreme heavenly dao, he could still accept it.

But when he heard that he bore all the negative Luck, he couldn’t hold back anymore.

He finally understood how this Ultimate Villain fate came to be.

So, all the sins committed by the Yan Huang Ancient Clan were dumped on him in one go.

Even after Reincarnation and Rebirth in this life, that terrifying Karma still couldn’t be resolved, constantly following him, subjected to interception by all “Heavenly Fates.”

Ji嫣然 said helplessly, “This matter… was not my wish, nor was it proposed by those old stubborn people within the clan.

Rather, as a part of the supreme heavenly dao fragment, when you shattered, you naturally inherited this monstrous Karma.

Everyone simply went with the flow.”

“Of course, taking on monstrous negative Luck can be said to be misfortune to the extreme, but in this world, anything that reaches an extreme will undergo a monumental change.”

“You also benefited from the misfortune, gaining a Physique that no one has ever possessed throughout history.”

“The Karma Devouring Divine Body.”

“All the remaining people of our Yan Huang Ancient Clan also formulated a reconstruction plan because of your Karma Devouring Divine Body.”

“Which is what is known as—999 Divine-Grade identities.”
