Chapter 311 Chaos, Creation, Heavenly Guardian

"This is... the Big Bang?" Zhu Wu was speechless, looking back a week later, his gaze turned to the center of the explosion.

A ball of white light hovered there, surrounded by a halo of nine-colored light, flickering and pulsating slightly, like a heartbeat.

After a moment's hesitation, Zhu Wu tried to fly closer.

It was indeed possible to fly towards the ball of light, but after flying for a while, it became apparent that the distance hadn't decreased; the white ball of light was still the same size, only its flashing frequency was slightly faster than before. It was as if countless light-years separated them.

"What's unfolding before my eyes now must be a scene of time accelerated." Thinking this, I reluctantly stopped and watched quietly.

After an unknown amount of time, the flickering frequency of the light cluster stabilized.

Then, with a crack, a fissure appeared, followed by a series of cracks that continued to widen until finally, it crumbled into pieces and slid off.

Two figures were revealed inside, one with unparalleled beauty, the other with extraordinary handsomeness. The former had a curvaceous figure, while the latter had a tall and straight posture.

Zhu Wu was taken aback when he looked down.

"No gender!?" It's flat and seamless, with no bumps.

One looks like a woman and the other like a man, yet you're telling me you don't have any tools!

Lost in thought, the two opened their eyes simultaneously and locked eyes. The latter's brow furrowed instantly, seemingly instinctively repelling the other. But they quickly recovered and continued looking at each other. Neither spoke, but their changing expressions suggested they were exchanging words.

A short while later, the two parted ways.

The next second, time suddenly accelerated, and the surrounding vision changed rapidly. The two wandered to different parts of the universe until one day, the female prime minister waved her hand and drew the colorful clouds around her body, which continued to swirl and converge, forming a nebula.

"The creator god?" Zhu Wu immediately guessed. "Then the other one, is it the god of heavenly guardians?"

The images continued, showing nebulae coalescing and soon filling the entire universe.

After an unknown amount of time, the Creator God stopped, opened his arms, and his body radiated a dazzling nine-colored light. Then, his body suddenly exploded.

Countless points of light scattered, among which five points of light were the largest, namely black, white, red, green and purple.

"The origins of the five great divine kings, or rather, their divine positions?"

"So, this is the true power of the Creator God. The so-called Creator God created by the fusion of the God of Destruction and the Goddess of Life in the sequel is actually a super-suppressed version?" Thinking this, he continued to observe the evolution of the universe.

As points of light of various colors spread throughout the universe, changes quickly occurred in the major star regions.

As time went by, life began to appear on some planets with suitable environments, taking on various forms.

Furthermore, each possesses its own power.

But as time went on, wars broke out on many planets, either for the sake of resources or for other reasons, creating chaos and disorder.

The God of Heaven appeared, and with a wave of his hand, purple light of destruction burst forth, instantly turning all living beings on the planet into ashes, including a large number of god-level powerhouses.

"Holy crap, that's incredible!" Zhu Wu exclaimed in surprise.

Time accelerated, and in the years that followed, the God of Heavenly Guardians traveled almost constantly throughout the universe, launching world-destroying attacks on different planes. As time went on, his expression became increasingly numb, even weary.

Until one day, he stopped and exploded on the spot.

The immense energy blasted away multiple star systems, leaving only a wisp of purple light that flew into the depths of the universe.

"Did he become withdrawn? Reincarnated?" Zhu Wu thought of a certain work where the God of Heavenly Guardian reincarnated many times and became the God of Divine Punishment.

The scene continues, and what follows is a period of free development for the various planets.

"Hmm?" After observing for a while, Zhu Wu suddenly noticed that the number of beast-type creatures was decreasing. Even those that were originally beast-shaped would transform into human form after cultivating to a certain stage. Afterward, as time went on, this form became fixed and dominant.

"Is it because it carries the genes of the creator god?" I couldn't help but wonder.

When his gaze shifted again, Zhu Wu was taken aback. He saw the Dragon God, and the subsequent plot was identical to the inherited memories.

The scene shifts to a day when all the gods gather, including the five great god-kings. The Dragon God stands on the platform, his hands raised high, as if performing some kind of ritual.

Midway through, nine-colored light suddenly converged from the depths of the universe, and a milky white ball of light took shape from the center. It then flew straight to the sky above the Dragon God Realm and descended beams of light.

But the people below don't seem to see it.

Then, the Dragon God couldn't hold on any longer, and the Dragon Prince initiated a sacrifice, driving the Dragon God into madness.

The milky-white light faded away, and the great war of the gods began.

Afterwards, the Dragon God Realm collapsed, breaking into countless pieces scattered throughout the universe, and the five great god-kings began to take over the god realm.

As humanoid beings flourished, the living space for beast-like races continued to shrink.

"Is it an inevitable trend, or the influence of the image of the creator god?" Zhu Wu felt something was amiss.

It feels like a creator god is favoring humanity.

As I was lost in thought, a milky white ball of light suddenly appeared in the void ahead and flew straight toward me.

"!!?" Zhu Wu had just caught a glimpse of the light and shadow when the ball of light disappeared into his brow, followed by a flood of information surging through his mind.

The next second, the world spun around, and consciousness suddenly returned.

At the same time, a faint white light emanated from the surface of the body, and the iridescent luster of the fine scales faded, turning into a crystal-clear white.

"Chaos. Creation Guardian" Zhu Wu remained motionless, in fact, he couldn't move. The ball of white light was merging with his soul, and he had lost control of his body. Also, there's a lot of information here; my head is starting to ache. I need to sort it out.

After lying still for a few hours, I finally digested most of it.

That ball of white light was actually a god, and one of the three primordial gods of the universe whose status was even higher than the five great god kings of the god realm and even the dragon god of yesteryear. Can you believe it?

This was the first time he had ever heard of the God of Chaos.

Chaos, the beginning of everything, and also the end of everything. The most crucial duty of the God of Chaos lies in this: to restart the universe. When the universe expands to its limit, the resulting tension shatters all matter, and life perishes beyond saving. The God of Chaos then must step forward to fulfill its final duty, gathering and transforming the energy of the entire universe into its own. Then, it self-destructs to restart.

The creator god self-destructed, the guardian god self-destructed, and in the end, he had to self-destruct too, damn it!

Zhu Wu felt that this divine position was a bit too hot to handle, and in the end, it turned out to be a suicide.

If the Creator God's power is creation, and the Guardian God's power is destruction, then the Chaos God's power is decomposition. He can break down and transform any energy into the primordial force that can transform all things—the power of chaos. If we compare the universe to a construction site, then the Chaos God is the material manufacturer, the Creator God is responsible for building the houses, and the Guardian God is responsible for demolishing illegal and dangerous structures.

Then, naturally, the God of Chaos would recycle the old materials and recreate them, and the Creator God would rebuild them all at once.

As for the other deities, the dragon god, possessing cosmic characteristics and able to utilize multiple elemental attributes, can barely be considered a formally appointed security guard. However, deities lacking cosmic characteristics and only able to utilize one or a few elemental attributes are merely temporary workers.

That's right, it's borrowing! The universe, this home, was built and maintained by three family members: Chaos, Creation, and Heavenly Guardian. Therefore, only these three can freely touch anything in the house; all elements in the universe are their private property. As a formally appointed security guard, the Dragon God can naturally borrow many things to drive away enemies and protect the home. Temporary workers, on the other hand, are treated differently; even lending them one item is a favor.

For ordinary deities, that's just a temporary employee badge!

Furthermore, the three gods of Chaos, Creation, and Heavenly Guardian share the same origin and all possess the ability to manipulate the laws of the universe, belonging to the authority of creation, only differing in the direction of their application.

Chaos returns to its origin, chaos itself returns to chaos; creation appropriates the resources used to create all things; and the guardians of heaven are used entirely for destruction.

Although they serve different purposes, all three undoubtedly aim to enable the universe to develop better.

"It feels like a job interview. After the Dragon God came into contact with the power of chaos, he also gained the ability to manipulate multiple elements, and thus once aspired to the position of a chaotic god, but he failed the test and could only become a security guard. I, on the other hand, passed the test, so I became a high-level materials manufacturer."

Even after becoming one of the three original gods, Zhu Wu was still just a wage earner. He felt that the setting of this world truly lived up to its fantasy theme.

Normally, if you reach the pinnacle of cultivation, shouldn't you transcend the Three Realms and create heavens at will?

"Furthermore, regarding my strength," if Creation and Heavenly Guardian were like reaching their peak right from the start, then his Chaos God is, in his view, just a story of a glutton leveling up.

Since his ultimate purpose is to gather energy and restart the universe when it collapses, his peak power is the moment he absorbs the energy of the entire universe into his body. In other words, he is currently just a blank slate, possessing a godhood but not yet reaching the maximum level.

Of course, this is in comparison to the Creator God and the God of Heaven at their debut. If compared to the five Great God-Kings of the God Realm today, he is the real big shot.

Even a starved camel is bigger than a horse, and a tiger fallen into the plains is not something a cat can bully.

"Furthermore, I was able to inherit the Chaos God because of the Creator God. That guy's will is clearly more inclined towards humanity, while I am now a Soul Beast. Choosing me allows for better balance, which is beneficial for maintaining cosmic order and healthy development."

"Perhaps this was one of the reasons why the Chaos God's position was drawn by the Dragon God in the first place."

The laws of the universe are not conscious; they operate entirely on instinct. An imbalance in one aspect will inevitably trigger a backlash. In a sense, it's like a natural ecosystem, requiring a stable food chain to maintain its healthy functioning. If any link in the chain goes wrong, it must be corrected.

Add a new link to create a check, or destroy everything and start over.

"Therefore, my current duty is actually similar to that of the God of the Sky Guard. Before the Great Cataclysm arrives, my main task is to maintain the order of the universe."

"Oh, the God of Heaven, who has become so withdrawn that he is questioning the meaning of life, should be reincarnated in some other plane and playing house. The original form of the Creator God has long since dissipated."

"So, I'm just a cheap scapegoat who's been dragged up here to take the fall."

Inheriting the position of the Chaos God is indeed a great thing, but at this moment, Zhu Wu still inexplicably feels like he's been left holding the bag.

"Let's take it one step at a time." He sighed inwardly and stopped thinking about his divine duties.

"Well, after all, it's a divine position on par with the Creator God. Even if I'm just a blank slate right now, once I get familiar with my abilities, my strength will only be greater than that of the Dragon God back then. Taking down one or two God-Kings is definitely no problem, but taking down a bunch at once, and with Destruction and Life able to merge into a castrated version of the Creator God, it's really hard to say. The Silver Dragon King has sacrificed himself again, and the other True Dragons are all in their Dragon Soul state."

"We still need to help them rebuild their physical bodies and revive them first."

"Or, use the authority of a god to dismantle and devour a planet, and then you'll absolutely crush the five great god-kings."

"Hmm," he murmured, lost in thought.

Meanwhile, in the outside world, on the Douluo Continent, many days had passed.

"How is it?" The God of Destruction and the God of Evil met, and the latter asked first.
