On this day, the entire Divine Forging Sect was invigorated, and everyone, regardless of age or strength, was overjoyed.

........

As dusk fell, the twilight cast its glow on Jiang Mo's slender silhouette, stretching endlessly across the desolate borderland.

A few steps can cover hundreds of miles.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Mo burrowed deep underground and arrived at the lair of the Blood Demon Clan.

In an instant, the entire magnificent city, which seemed to be built of molten lava and blood, fell silent. Countless Blood Demon Clan citizens, upon seeing the white figure floating in the air, were horrified and dared not breathe.

"This old man, Agudao, was unaware of the Immortal Venerable's arrival. Please forgive me!"

An elderly man hurriedly approached, and upon seeing that it was the strongest Dao Lord on the surface of the earth, his face filled with fear and cold sweat poured down his face. He quickly prostrated himself and knelt down in worship.

Its actions further influenced all the Blood Demon citizens, who all silently worshipped that alien Dao Lord, daring not to utter a word.

"Your ancestor, who resided with me in the Immortal Realm, departed on his own in search of his bones and internal organs, and his whereabouts are unknown. Now, the road to the Immortal Realm has been opened, and there is a place for your race to settle. Those who wish to settle in the Immortal Realm, simply keep this thought in mind, and I will lead you there..."

Jiang Mo looked down at the Blood Demon and spoke clearly, word by word.

Among the ancient beings of the three races, the Blood Demon Ancestor left a good impression on him. Even though the old ghost's whereabouts were unknown, Jiang Mo did not break his promise and still gave him the territory he had promised to give to his race.

Jiang Mo's cold voice resounded throughout the underground megacity. The first response was a deathly silence, but slowly, within seconds, a deafening roar of cheers erupted.

The Blood Demon's people danced and shouted joyfully to the sky, as if they were conversing with their deceased ancestor, their faces filled with excitement.

Fairyland.

The legendary immortal realm.

Their ancestor has been found!

Their ancestors did not deceive them!

Soon, millions of blood demons also came to thank Jiang Mo and sing his praises. Their thunderous shouts shook the earth.

"..."

Jiang Mo remained silent, merely glancing at the scene before turning and leaving.

Following that, he visited the Dragon Clan and the Evil Spirit Clan, informing them of the choices made by their ancestors and handing them the papers belonging to the two clans, allowing them to make arrangements for the ascended individuals based on the ideas of the Candle Dragon and the Evil Spirit Ancestor.

After all this was done, humans and other intelligent beings from all over the world who were preparing to ascend waited anxiously for more than half a month.

However, Jiang Mo did not immediately begin his ascension. Before leaving, he had two very important special individuals whom he did not visit.

As night fell, Jiang Mo gazed at the starry sky, his eyes locking onto the location of Venus. Suddenly, he cast a spell, his figure becoming ethereal and vanishing in an instant.

When he reappeared, Jiang Mo's reincarnated body had already arrived at the deepest part of Venus without any hindrance.

Not far away, a blue creation crystal rapidly revived, and countless rays of light transformed into tentacles and wings, stretching out freely.

"You've come? Child..."

"I've arrived. There's something I'd like to discuss with you."

Chapter 638 Mother

The Creation Crystal on the stone altar silently looked down at Jiang Mo. Hearing that he had come to discuss something, it took the initiative to inquire:

"What's the matter?"

"I have opened the path to the Immortal Realm, and I can go there at any time. I will soon take a group of beings to ascend across realms. Before leaving, I came here to ask if you also wish to leave."

Jiang Mo spoke each word clearly and deliberately. In his impression, the will of the ancient star of life could actually walk in the world in the form of a human body, depending on whether the other party was willing or not, although its strength would be greatly reduced as a result.

"?"

"You've opened the path to the Immortal Realm?!"

The will of Venus was quite shocked. He looked at this human whom he hadn't seen for three years with some surprise, never expecting his growth rate to be so terrifying. In just a few years, he had made a great achievement in the outer realms.

"Sigh... never mind, thank you for your kindness, but I can't go..."

"The will of the Immortal Realm regards us celestial beings as foreign diseases and will eliminate us by any means necessary. If it were you humans or other species, it would be alright, but we, the Creation God Crystals, are really no match for you. The risks are just too great. Rather than risking my life to ascend, I'd rather stay here and grow stronger slowly."

The will of Venus declined Jiang Mo's offer. It had a clear understanding of its own strength and would never dare to provoke the will of the Immortal Realm, which was far stronger than itself.

"Since you don't want to, then let's leave it at that."

Jiang Mo smiled slightly. He then thought of something else, and, with a thirst for knowledge, asked about the so-called suppression of the human king's bloodline when he spoke to the will of Venus:

"Senior, in your previous era, did you know anything about the abilities of the ancient human race or the gods in this regard?"

“I’ve heard of it, and you actually ran into it… Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about the secrets of their race, so I can’t help you much. But if you want to avoid this kind of bloodline suppression, it’s very simple: just shed your human body and soul.”

"..."

Jiang Mo remained silent, lost in thought. The Creation God Crystal was similar to the solution he had envisioned: modifying the physical body and soul to evolve into an intelligent race other than humans, thus becoming immune to the bloodline suppression from the Human King Clan.

That is, something like his second true self.

While he himself was immune to bloodline suppression, almost all humans in the Immortal Realm and even the Heavenly Abyss were unable to resist this mysterious suppression.

Unfortunately, the Creation Crystal also doesn't know the specific reason for its formation.

Jiang Mo spoke with Him for a moment, then left and returned to the mortal realm. With a flicker of his figure, he went straight to the depths of the core of the Heavenly Abyss.

Surrounded by countless formations and restrictions, the Daoist masters of all generations knew the importance of this location. Once the Creation Crystal inside the Earth's core was damaged, it would affect their secret realm and the surface, dragging the entire world into an abyss of death. Therefore, many powerful human beings set up measures here to isolate all intelligent life from approaching.

Now, Jiang Mo has returned to this place, untouched by any magic. He walks through the layers of restrictions as if on flat ground, and arrives before the Creation Crystal of Tianyuan.

Before the divine crystal sat a tall, straight figure with blue hair, who was none other than the immortal body that Jiang Mo had specially left behind several years ago, within which resided a wisp of his original consciousness.

"Wow!"

"Wow!"

Sensing the arrival of new outsiders, the Creation Crystal, which should have been dormant, trembled slightly and showed signs of awakening.

Unlike the Creation Crystal on Venus, this one was far more dazzling and enormous, its surface imprinted with countless dense ancient Daoist patterns, as if it contained a miniature universe within it, radiating a captivating power.

However, this seemingly perfect creation now bears dozens of shocking cracks, remnants of a prehistoric war. The outburst of power has now exposed these cracks to Jiang Mo's view.

"Om!!"

In an instant, countless soft azure rays of light overflowed from within the Creation Crystal, and a mysterious and ancient will was revived.

"Are the other fragments with you?"

"Junior, I have a request."

Jiang Mo reached into his robes and slowly took out a tattered history book, which he then handed forward.

Jiang Mo, whose cultivation had reached the pinnacle of the human realm, searched every corner of the world but could not find any fragments of other historical records. Therefore, he guessed that the remaining dozens of fragments had been collected by the will of Tianyuan.

"Crash!!"

A soft tentacle wrapped around the tattered book in Jiang Mo's hand, instantly refining and absorbing it. At the same time, a weathered voice rang in his ears.

"Yes, it's here with me..."

"However, there are still some powerful humans left outside. You have awakened me, what do you want?"

The Creation Crystal of Tianyuan silently observed Jiang Mo, feeling quite astonished. It had no idea that such a terrifying creature had been born on the surface of the earth during its slumber, and the thought of it made it feel a chill of fear.

"I want to select several deceased individuals from the past; I humbly request your permission, senior."

Upon hearing this, the Creation Crystal seemed to be telepathically connected, instantly unleashing azure light that formed a screen resembling a movie screen, displaying the faces of some deceased people.

They were all disciples or teachers who died in the early years of the sect.

"The Book of Time is my most fundamental power. It is broken and cannot be reassembled. I have modified some of the historical facts that have already occurred, but I cannot truly bring them back to life. This kind of resurrection is limited. It can only stay within the range of my influence, that is, the world of Tianyuan that you know. Once it leaves, it will turn to ashes in an instant. If you want to be truly resurrected, you must find the complete Book of Time. Otherwise, even if you come back to life, you will be confined to the sky for life."

Tianyuan Divine Crystal spoke slowly.

Jiang Mo listened attentively and responded as he spoke:

"I can accept what you've said. What's the maximum number of people you can resurrect?"

"For me, resurrecting one person or a million people does not require much effort. All of history is a chapter of my life, and the humans active in it are also works that have been constantly cleansed by my power, will, and personality over the long years. In the end, they are also a part of my life extension. To resurrect them is easy."

At this point, Tianyuan Divine Crystal suddenly paused, then added meaningfully:

“But you are different. You have never truly belonged to me, yet you have also been blessed by me, just like other children.”

Jiang Mo understood the meaning of His words and asked in return, "What is a blessing?"

"It's just some of life's instincts. To put it simply, it's about giving certain beings with extraordinary talent enough luck to protect them, so that the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth can become more compatible with them and accelerate their cultivation. It's like how the limbs you humans exercise regularly will always be strengthened. It's basically the principle of 'use it or lose it'."

"Everyone is blessed with the same amount of blessings, starting from the same point. It's only through their later achievements that things begin to change. Some people receive more and more blessings, and their path to enlightenment becomes smooth, while others receive fewer and fewer blessings, and they fall into depravity and decay..."

Tianyuan Divine Crystal patiently explained, knowing all the secrets of the era in which Jiang Mo existed. Any historical facts appeared in its mind as if they were existing memories, and were easily sorted out by it.

Immediately afterwards, He spoke up:

"You wanted to resurrect those disciples who, when you returned to the sect after your seclusion, were not protected by the array you had set up in time. At that time, you had the ability, but not the time, so you chose to rescue your senior brother and junior nephew first..."

"You want to resurrect Zuo Ruotong, who died with regrets, and you feel that you were just a step too late, which led to the tragedy..."

"You want to resurrect your master, Miaohui... so that he can enjoy the prosperity of future generations...."

"You want to resurrect the former Masters of the Sando lineage who were kind to you, and those brainwashed disciples you couldn't save at the last moment..."

"I can make anything you want happen, but there is one condition."

"explain."

Seeing that Tianyuan Divine Crystal was revealing its true colors, Jiang Mo said indifferently, "As long as it's within my capabilities, I will help you do it."

"The Book of Time originally consisted of three volumes, representing the past, present, and future respectively. However, it was severely shattered during the prehistoric war. Later, the portions of the past and future that I possessed were reforged into an incomplete version of the Book of Time, which is the one that the Immortal Daoist and the Nine Suns Demon Emperor shattered. But the middle volume, 'Present,' was still preserved by the Primordial Human Race. After their defeat, they fled far into the starry sky..."

“I’ve tampered with the bloodlines of some of them, and the coordinates are still there. Here’s what we’ll do: you go and collect the remaining volume of the Book of Time for me, and I can resurrect the people you want to resurrect, allowing them to truly come back to life and recreate this era. Even if they leave Tianyuan, they won’t die.”

"..."

Jiang Mo did not agree, but a ripple of unease stirred in his heart. It was an ominous sign that the divine crystal before him must still hold a secret, something it was hiding from him.

His intuition told him that the three volumes of the history book were extremely important, and that if they were handed over to the other party, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Are you worried that after I tidy them up, I'll completely erase all traces of your existence?"

Just then, Tianyuan Divine Crystal seemed to sense Jiang Mo's hesitation and took the initiative to expose this hidden danger.

"Yes."

Jiang Mo stared intently at the divine crystal and spoke slowly, word by word:

"Bringing the dead back to life is just an unnecessary thought of mine. If it threatens the stability and prosperity of the present world, I will not choose that path."

"Is there really no room for negotiation?"

"No."

Jiang Mo refused again, and then stretched out his left hand, his meaning all too clear.

"......"

The Heavenly Abyss Divine Crystal remained silent, and a nameless fire that had been dormant for countless millennia suddenly rose up.

So, they're trying to take what rightfully belongs to me from my hands?!

However, due to the difference in strength and his own serious injuries, Tianyuan Divine Crystal had no choice but to compromise and hand over all the fragments of the Book of Time that he had just obtained to Jiang Mo.

"Thanks....."

"I believe that not only I, but all living beings on land, beneath land, and in every unseen corner of the world, should have the opportunity to choose their own destiny, instead of becoming puppets on strings, whose lives and deaths can be manipulated at will."

Holding fragments of the history book in his hands, Jiang Mo was filled with emotion. He quietly bent his five fingers and slowly grasped one-third of the incomplete book.

"I understand why you do this. Just like you humans herd sheep, once sheep have wisdom, they will no longer live in a daze and become food to be slaughtered at any time."

Tianyuan Divine Crystal suddenly smiled:

"So, what are you going to do with me now, my rebellious child?"

Seeing the negotiations break down, the Heavenly Abyss Will had a premonition that Jiang Mo would either enslave Him or use Him, just like those prehistoric great beings, and He was fully prepared for this.

"Thank you for your continued care and concern; I should indeed call you Mother..."

This was the first time Jiang Mo had uttered this unfamiliar word, but his emotions didn't fluctuate much. His expression remained calm and gentle, but this gentleness was more terrifying and oppressive than coldness.

"boom!"

In an instant, a crisp sound rang out. Without hesitation, Jiang Mo suddenly exerted force with his five fingers, destroying the remnants of time in his palm.
