I am Xiao Sheng

Chapter 1384 The Slaughter Resumes

Chapter 1364 The Slaughter Resumes

"Why are you unwilling? You still can't bear to part with it. No matter how good the power in the primordial world is, it's nothing compared to your own cultivation. You've already walked your own path, so there's no need to care about this little loss. Focus your energy on comprehending the Great Dao. No matter how the world changes, in the end, strength determines everything!" Seeing that his obsession was still immersed in inexplicable sadness, the Great God Pangu advised him.

"How could I not understand? But understanding is one thing, and putting it into practice is another. Moreover, I always feel that there is a conspiracy and a scheme behind this. Otherwise, such a shocking change could not have occurred, and the entire prehistoric world could not have come to this point. I am worried that if we do not stop all of this, and let it continue to develop, we ourselves will also be affected, and we may even be drawn into the situation. When the great calamity comes, it will not be something we can do to escape. After all, we are still in the prehistoric world, and now the Great Dao of the Prehistoric World has been born!"

Upon hearing Zhi Nian's words, the Great God Pangu's gaze sharpened slightly. Although he was unwilling to admit it, everything Zhi Nian said was true. If this continued, it would put considerable pressure on him, and might even crush him. This was a great calamity of heaven and earth, and he was also caught in it, needing to face the impact and pressure it brought!

"Even if you can't do it, you have to find a way to do it. Otherwise, you will only be constrained by the prehistoric world, or even be ambushed by others. You don't really think that Yang Mei and Shi Chen missed this opportunity. They are not as simple as you think. Don't be fooled by the fact that many people are happy that they have reduced their competitors. They are all too foolish. If Yang Mei and Shi Chen didn't even have this much skill, could they still stand in the chaos?"

Pangu's words startled Pangu's obsession. A faint aura began to gather, while at the same time, a few strands of aura dissipated. At this moment, Pangu's obsession understood. What he understood was not anything else, but the cause and effect and connection between himself and Pangu. As his aura continued to change, the dissipating aura was the aura of the primordial world, the cause and effect between him and the primordial world, while the gathering aura was his own Great Dao!

"I am Taiyi, all the past has vanished into nothingness, and from Taiyi all phenomena arise!" As Taiyi finished speaking, everything from the past disappeared, and all the cause and effect between Pangu and Taiyi vanished. Yi is change, and it is also rebirth!

When Pangu uttered his obsessive words and transformed into Taiyi, the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches were all shocked, because they all felt the changes within themselves, and in that instant, all their karma vanished.

"It has changed, the world has changed, and we have changed too. Is this the immeasurable eon?" As he felt the changes within himself, Lao Tzu sighed softly. With all cause and effect gone, he no longer felt any pressure, nor did he need to be confused about his origins.

The same thing happened to the Twelve Ancestral Witches. At that moment, they all understood that they had changed. Everything from the past had been severed. The Twelve Ancestral Witches had truly severed all ties with the Witch Clan, and they were reborn. This change relieved them of all pressure, and they also severed all protection. They had no karmic connection with Pangu or Taiyi!

In that instant, not only the Three Pure Ones and the Twelve Ancestral Witches changed, but the entire primordial world also transformed. As Pangu's words, imbued with his unwavering resolve, fell, the very essence of the primordial world shifted. Pangu's aura dissipated from the primordial world, yet the Great God Pangu did not stop it, for this dissipation was also a manifestation of his own freedom. The primordial world of today is no longer connected to Pangu, but rather to the world of the Primordial Dao. Even though the Primordial Dao is not yet perfected, it has already begun to control everything within the primordial world.

In an instant, the chaotic beasts that had invaded the primordial world felt threatened. Their strength was weakened once again. This was the suppression of the rules of the primordial world. They were being suppressed by the primordial world, and by the newly formed world order.

"Interesting. This newly formed world's rules and order actually contain the aura of heaven and earth calamity. What does the Primordial Great Dao want to do? Using the aura of heaven and earth calamity as its rules, is it merely to control the Primordial World and quickly condense the rules and order of heaven and earth?" As he sensed the changes in the Primordial World, Xiao Sheng couldn't help but frown. All of this made him feel uneasy.

Using the tribulations of heaven and earth as rules, or even as a means of condensing order, seems problematic in every way, and a major one at that. Yet, he couldn't find the source of the problem. This situation made Xiao Sheng feel threatened, as did the Ten Directions Daoist, the Dark King, and the Longevity Child. Even the powerful beings of the entire Primordial World felt threatened, not to mention the chaotic beasts that invaded the Primordial World. It was as if the entire world had changed in that instant.

"Perhaps for the sake of slaughter, for the sake of quickly perfecting themselves, the Chaos Beasts are not all the same. They also have their own Great Dao origins. Moreover, although these guys have no intelligence, only instinct, they all master their own Great Dao. If these guys are all killed, and their origin rules are transformed into nourishment for the Primordial Great Dao, what would that be like!" Suddenly, Changshengzi said these words, and his words shocked Xiao Sheng, Shifang Daoren and the Dark King!
"Yes, if all of this is for killing and for perfecting itself, then everything makes sense. The transformation of the 'Heart of the Great Dao' is actually for perfecting itself. Even its holding of power over the Primordial World is not genuine; it's all just for perfecting itself. After all, it is the ruler of the Primordial World. If it completely controls everything in the Primordial World and condenses perfect order and rules, how powerful will it be then? Will it be able to fight against the Great Dao?"

After saying this, Xiao Sheng sighed softly. Although he understood the machinations of the Primordial Dao and the changes in the Primordial World, it was impossible to change everything. He didn't possess such power. After all, he and the Primordial World were already bound by karma. In fact, at that moment, the sense of rejection he felt intensified—this was the change in the Primordial World. Having grasped this, Xiao Sheng understood that to avoid being rejected by the Primordial World, he either had to accept its karma or shield himself from all influence, preventing its power from affecting him. Both were difficult to achieve, for this was an immeasurable calamity, one that no one could escape!

"My Lord, don't overthink it. No matter how much the primordial world changes, it doesn't matter much to us. After all, we have severed all karmic ties. Now that the immeasurable calamity has begun and slaughter has arrived, there is no need for us to waste any more precious time. Even the Great Dao of the Primordial World is going to be slaughtered, so there is no need for us to wait!"

The Ten Directions Daoist no longer wanted to wait. The changes in the primordial world made him unwilling to waste any more precious time. Although there were many chaotic beasts invading the primordial world, things would be different once all the powerful beings took action.

Of course, the Ten Directions Daoist also had some concerns, fearing that the Primordial Great Dao would not be able to completely suppress the power of those chaotic beasts. Once this great battle began, no one knew whether the Great Dao would intervene, and he dared not place all his hopes on others! It was hard to say whether Pangu would even intervene to target the Great Dao!

“You’re right. We shouldn’t waste our precious time. Once the killing starts, it’s unstoppable. We don’t need to waste our energy on this. Also, I don’t think we need to refine the Chaos Beast’s essence ourselves. We can just hand it over to Changshengzi and let the Great Thousand World refine it. We just need to accept the world’s feedback!” After making up his mind, Xiao Sheng’s idea was even more outrageous than Shifang Daoren’s. Now, none of the three of them needed to waste time refining the Chaos Beast’s essence. They could directly send the essence obtained from the killing into the Great Thousand World and let the world’s power refine it. They only needed to plunder and kill!
“Alright, this is an immeasurable calamity, we don’t have that much time to waste. Even wasting some of our own essence is better than wasting our precious time!” The Dark King accepted Xiao Sheng’s arrangement. If the three of them were to refine the essence of the chaotic beasts, it would waste a lot of time and energy. After all, they couldn’t guarantee that the rules of the chaotic beasts’ essences they killed were the same as their own Great Dao essences. Refining different Great Dao essences would require a lot of energy and would also consume a lot of their own essences. In that case, it would be better to let Changshengzi use the power of the Great Thousand Worlds to devour and refine them. Compared to them, refining with the Great Thousand Worlds would be easier, since the Great Thousand Worlds can contain the Three Thousand Great Daos!
“This idea is good, and I have no problem with it either. Our Great Thousand World is a complete Great Thousand World, so devouring the origin of the Chaos Beasts is a piece of cake. My control of the origin of the Great Thousand World can reduce a lot of pressure for you and also save time. When the Immeasurable Calamity comes, time is our biggest problem. After all, we don’t have the foundation of the Chaos Gods and Demons!” Changshengzi also accepted Xiao Sheng’s proposal, and they quickly reached an agreement.

"Then let's begin, Changshengzi. You must pay attention to the life force of the Darkness and the Ten Directions. They are different from me; they don't have a large amount of life force to consume. Once they get caught up in a great battle, they are likely to face a crisis. You must ensure their supply of life force!"

"My Lord, rest assured, I will keep an eye on their safety and will not let them fall into danger in order to conserve the world's essence." Once the great battle begins, how could Changshengzi not understand the importance of the supply of essence? Compared to Xiao Sheng's powerful Dao of Life, the Dao of Space and Time cultivated by the Dark King and the Ten Directions Daoist is not so easy.

At this moment, not only Xiao Sheng and his group were filled with murderous intent, but all the powerful beings in the entire Primordial World had such a crazy determination. Even those who had not yet attained the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm had such thoughts. Because in that instant, the Primordial Great Dao unfolded its plan, and a divine thought enveloped the entire Primordial World. All the beings related to the Primordial World received the reminder from the Primordial Great Dao. The invading chaotic beasts were suppressed by the Primordial Great Dao. This would be their best opportunity.

However, the three thousand chaotic gods and demons, as well as beings like Xiao Sheng, Pangu, and Taiyi, did not receive the warning from the Primordial Great Dao, because they were not one with the Primordial Great Dao. But the beings attached to the Primordial World were different. The Three Pure Ones, the Twelve Ancestral Witches, the Two Western Saints, and Nuwa, among other powerful beings, all received the warning from the Primordial Great Dao.

The layout of the Primordial Great Dao is completely different from what the God of Destiny, Dao Ancestor Hongjun, and others guessed. After transforming from the 'Heart of the Great Dao' into the Primordial Great Dao, it has mastered the rules and order of the Primordial World. What it needs to do is not to kill those invading Chaos Beasts by itself, but to use the power of all living beings to kill them. The original rules emitted by the death of each Chaos Beast will become the nourishment of the Primordial World and will strengthen the power of the Primordial Great Dao.

Relying on one's own strength to kill and refine would take a very long time. However, it would be much easier and more effortless to rely on the power of all living beings in the Primordial World. This would allow the Primordial Great Dao to easily absorb those scattered primordial rules, and over time, this would become an immense opportunity for the Primordial Great Dao.

Why didn't the Primordial Great Dao warn Xiao Sheng, Pangu, and the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons? Was it because the Primordial Great Dao was wary of them, worried that their growing power would threaten the safety of the Primordial World? No, that's not the case. The Primordial Great Dao didn't warn them because it knew that even without its warning, these beings would still go and kill the Chaos Beasts. After all, opportunity knocks but once. With its full power to suppress those Chaos Beasts, it could allow them to easily slay them. This would also minimize the karmic ties between the Primordial Great Dao and the Chaos Great Dao, ensuring that any trouble would be borne by those who committed the killing.

Could Xiao Sheng, the three thousand Chaos Gods and Demons, Pangu, and Taiyi not see through the schemes of the Primordial Dao? They saw it clearly. To them, such a scheme was insignificant and unnecessary. Moreover, they did not want to form any karmic ties with the Primordial Dao. If they were reminded, would a karmic connection be created between them and the Primordial Dao?

The Great Dao of Primordial Chaos did not want to form any karmic ties with Xiao Sheng and his group, just as Xiao Sheng and his group did not want to form any karmic ties with the Primordial World. Like the Great God Pangu, after returning, he did not interfere in anything in the Primordial World, but instead watched coldly from the sidelines, simply because he did not want to form any more karmic ties with the Primordial World and affect his own cultivation.

Every cause has its effect. Pangu didn't want to bear the burden of karma anymore, and neither did the three thousand chaotic gods and demons. Therefore, with their tacit understanding, everything proceeded smoothly, and this situation was beneficial to both sides. Since neither wanted to incur further karma, this was the best choice; neither owed the other anything, and both needed to bear the pressure of karma.
