Chapter 817: Chapter 390: The God’s Secret, Supre of the Third Power (3)
Gu Jianlin was stunned because his teacher had said the sa thing.
"The one who designed this world is undoubtedly that unified will. All the history throughout the ages is on the schedule of that will. The extinction and birth of species, the proliferation and destruction of civilizations, the rise and fall of empires, the wars between humans and gods—all are under its control."
Ji Zhou, with his hands behind his back, gazed at the ginkgo tree before him and said softly, "If I’m not mistaken, if it weren’t for the arrival of the five Ancient Supres, its plan might have already been completed."
She raised her hand, and once again wiped her blood-soaked palm across the stone tablet.
"I’ll show you sothing else."
On the stone tablet, a golden mural appeared once more.
Five glorious gods stood above the Azure Sea. A massive Divine Path pierced through the sea. Two robed figures spread their arms wide, stepping onto the path to the heavens. They appeared so insignificant, yet so imposing.
Torrential rain poured from the sky, and amid the flashes of lightning and thunder, countless Ancient God Clans churned in the deep sea.
Flying creatures and beasts appeared almost god-like.
"This is the Ancient Tis, the earliest two leaders in the East—one surnad Ji, the other Jiang."
Ji Zhou said softly, "The Ether Association was born based on their legacy."
Gu Jianlin murmured, "Yellow Emperor, Emperor Yan."
"The Inheritance Path erged in this way."
Ji Zhou gazed solemnly at this mural: "The earliest humans made a deal with the gods. By so ans, they created what is known as the Inheritance Path. From then on, humans possessed the power of the gods."
It seems that humans and the Ancient God Clan were not enemies at the very beginning!
"That’s because, at the earliest ti, there was a tribe in the East called the Jiuli. Their leader was nad Chiyou. It was the Qiongqi Venerable who bestowed power upon humanity, allowing that ancient tribe to ascend and possess unimaginably brutal power. The Jiuli Tribe was the earliest to believe in the unified will, for Earth’s environnt was not suitable for the survival of the Ancient God Clan, so it chose to nurture Earth’s native life and bestow authority upon them."
Ji Zhou’s lips curled into a smile: "The initial four Ancient Supres also tried to imitate this, but without exception, they all failed until that black Supre intervened and solved the problem."
Gu Jianlin felt as if his mind had been cleaved open by a knife.
He understood everything.
"Transplantation."
Ji Zhou paused: "That was the earliest transplantation, using a colossal matrix capable of covering a continent, granting people the ability to possess spirituality, awakening the chaotic and ignorant soul. What the Qiongqi Venerable could accomplish, the Qilin Venerable could also achieve, for they both wield the Third Power as Supres."
"Zhu Zhao, You Ying, the Third Power—none is superior or inferior; they hold the sa status."
She seed to recall sothing, her eyes becoming profound, and said seriously, "But the key is in the hands of the Qilin and Qiongqi, which ans they hold a certain level of initiative. It’s they who can bestow the authority of the Ancient Gods upon humans; they would certainly be the first to adapt to the rules of the real world."
Gu Jianlin finally understood that the birth of the Inheritance Path was also a ga between gods.
It was sothing existing to combat the unified will.
"Here, I have to ntion soone."
Ji Zhou’s eyes reflected a hint of nostalgia: "The Red King, Jiang Yanli."
Gu Jianlin blurted out, "The Red King said the Inheritance Path was never sothing humans should ddle with!"
Ji Zhou nodded: "The essence of this world is equivalent exchange. Humans possessing the Inheritance Path seems like they hold power on par with gods, but what is the price humans have to pay?"
Gu Jianlin felt a chill crawl up his spine: "Would gods truly be so benevolent?"
"Of course not. The sages of the earliest human world also pondered this question."
Ji Zhou turned and patted his head, smiling: "Do you rember the law of conservation of energy? Since ancient tis, countless Ascenders have been born or died; so are as lowly as ants, while others are as mighty as gods. Without exception, they all return to dust after a hundred years. Such imnse spirituality, such powerful souls—where do they go?"
A bolt from the blue.
Gu Jianlin felt his heart turn cold.
