756 History of Time, Dreams and Illusions (2)
In the memories of countless living beings, Immortal Ancestor Kong You had returned to her missing state and had never been saved. However, unlike the original timeline, experts like Immortal Ancestor Xu Yi had tried to save Immortal Ancestor Kong You, but they were stopped by a mysterious expert.
This caused the Immortal Ancestors to fail to save Immortal Ancestor Kong You. At the same time, it aggravated Immortal Ancestor Kong You’s Dao injuries, forcing her to escape into the spatial turbulence to treat her injuries.
Now that the Chaos Calamity was about to arrive, the mysterious existence that had once stopped several Immortal Ancestors with his shocking strength had appeared again…
These rumors would also spread with the new memories.
The Perfected Immortal Emperors sighed again.
What exactly was history?
To the Immortal Ancestors, history was simply a toy that they could play with as they pleased.
… .
At the present time point, inside the Pure Yang Palace.
Cui Heng slowly opened his eyes and comprehended the changes on him. Then, a faint smile appeared on his face. “This method is indeed feasible.”
Thanks to the huge impact caused by the 16th Chaos Calamity, both the Heaven Earth Saint Realm experts and the Immortal Ancestors had a deep impression of him.
His deeds were also left in the memories of countless living beings and he became a real figure in history.
This allowed the spatial Dao mark he had formed during the 16th Chaos Calamity to become real.
“Next, I’ll use this Dao mark to further backtrack to the time periods where I was not around and connect it into a line before occupying it.”
Cui Heng made up his mind and immediately began to take action.
After stepping into the River of Time, he started from 10,452 years before the current time point and went back in time.
Time flowed forward without stopping, while Cui Heng was moving against the current.
This process was extremely fast.
After breaking through to the Late-stage Return to Void Realm and obtaining the Great Dao Light Balls, Cui Heng already possessed an extremely high essence of life. His existence had already begun to naturally spread to the past.
Therefore, to the current Cui Heng, as long as he materialized a spatial Dao mark in the past, he could quickly weave a timeline and occupy that time period.
Hence, the mysterious expert Cui Heng, who suddenly appeared in the 16th Chaos Calamity, began to live permanently in the world.
However, this expert did not have a fixed affiliation. Sometimes, he was in the Chaos Heaven, sometimes in the Ninth Heaven. There was also no fixed image of him. Sometimes, he was a high and mighty Immortal God, and sometimes, he was an ordinary merchant.
It was as if he had jumped out of the myriad worlds and was no longer a living being. He could do whatever he wanted.
He also never had any disputes with others, but no one doubted his status.
This mysterious expert’s performance in the 16th Chaos Calamity had established his status and it was unshakable.
Whether it was in the Primordial World or the Boundless Chaos Sea, he was respected.
Following such a timeline, Cui Heng completed the fabrication and continuance of his past history.
Step by step, he moved from the time point of 10,000 years ago to the 19th Chaos Calamity. There, he took part in the layers of disputes and left the mark of his presence in history. Then using the same method, he spread his influence into the 18th and 17th Chaos Calamity.
In the end, he connected his presence with the mysterious expert who appeared in the 16th Chaos Calamity and completed the unification of the timeline.
At this point, Cui Heng had already gone back 56 Primeval Eras, which was 31.36 billion years ago.
He had truly become an extremely ancient existence.
At the same time, his fake selves occupied the various universes on the timeline.
Whether it was in the Boundless Chaos Sea or in the Primordial World, there were traces of his existence. Legends about him were spread in many civilizations.
In the understanding of most living beings, Cui Heng was an ancient expert who had existed for more than 300 billion years.
Now, he had only reappeared in the world and established a fixed dojo in a universe in the Boundless Chaos Sea.
Only experts at the Perfected Immortal Emperor and Immortal Ancestor realm knew that Cui Heng was actually not an ancient expert. Instead, he had returned to the past from this time and occupied the ancient timeline.
But this was actually meaningless.
After Cui Heng occupied the past timeline, he had already become a real ancient existence.
Moreover, it was because he was powerful enough to leave behind extremely deep and real Dao marks in four Chaos Calamities that he could become so ancient.
Such an ancient foundation was the most stable.
However, occupying the timeline of the 16th Chaos Calamity was not the end. The gift left behind by the Supreme God of Man also had more than this effect.
Cui Heng still had to continue going back to an even older timeline. He had to become more ancient and closer to the original state of this world.
Only then could he approach the origin mysteries of this world and become all-knowing, reaching the prerequisite of the Dao Integration realm.
“Next is the 11th Chaos Calamity.” Cui Heng thought to himself, “This time, an Immortal Ancestor died in the Chaos Calamity. The ball of light left behind by the Supreme God of Man also dissipated on the spot. This event can be used as an opportunity to establish a spatial Dao mark.”
… .
While Cui Heng was calculating his next plan.
The remaining five Immortal Ancestors had already arrived at the peak of the Ninth Heaven to discuss.
This was once a holy cultivation ground for the Supreme God of Man. Later on, the Nine Immortal Ancestors proclaimed themselves as Immortals and used this as the foundation to open up nine worlds. They were raised high in the sky and differentiated from the living beings on the ground to show their high and mighty status.
Therefore, the essence of the top level of the Nine Heavens was extremely high. It could completely isolate the outside world and effectively prevent outsiders from prying in.
The five Immortal Ancestors were led by Immortal Ancestor Xu Cheng. The other four were Immortal Ancestor Yuling, Immortal Ancestor Luo Qian, Immortal Ancestor Hanming, and Immortal Ancestor Huang Yun.
These five Immortal Ancestors were existences that suppressed the entire Primordial World and even the Boundless Chaos Sea in the past countless years.
At this moment, they were a little uneasy.
Cui Heng, who had appeared out of thin air, was completely beyond their understanding.
No matter what, they could not understand why such a situation happened. An existence that had not grasped the power of the Three Supreme Gods could actually possess power equivalent to or stronger than the Immortal Ancestors.
It was simply unbelievable.
Moreover, this person was clearly closer to the Boundless Chaos Sea. In that case, the Primordial World would be in danger.
“The change in the 16th Chaos Calamity is probably not his final goal.”
At this moment, Immortal Ancestor Xu Cheng suddenly said, “Cui Heng is actually not ancient. His path to becoming stronger is to first weave his identity at a key historical node before forcefully rewinding time and occupying the entire timeline leading up to that historical node.
His target next is probably the 11th and 4th Chaos Calamities. He will definitely participate in them and create an important identity as the coordinates to backtrack in time.
If we continue to let him go forward like this, we will no longer have any secrets. The great secret of the Three Supreme Gods will be known by a tenth person. We can’t let such a thing happen.”
“Then what should we do?” Immortal Ancestor Yuling asked in a low voice, “From the looks of it, we’re no longer that fellow’s match. We can barely protect ourselves.”
“Have you forgotten how we helped the Supreme God of Man expel the Supreme Gods of Heaven and Earth back then?” Immortal Ancestor Xu Cheng’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Power is not the only thing that the Supreme God of Man left behind for us. It’s enough for us to restrain Cui Heng!
If we handle it well, we might even be able to kill him!”
