Chapter 1972 – Dao Form, Human Form
A wretched old man.
Lu Yun sighed helplessly from the bottom of his heart when he heard the elder refer to himself like that. Something shifted in him in that moment—he no longer viewed the giants as the enemy.
Because they were human.
In all of the chief worlds, humans could be found in only the World of Immortals. All of the grand supremes in the realm seemed to consider the World of Immortals and the past Land of Reincarnation as their enemy. Perhaps the root cause of this was the human race found within.
Humans were masters of the immortal dao. It was possible that there wouldn’t be so much pushback and commotion if any other race oversaw that great dao.
……
“What a pity that only your projection is here. You don’t even have the guts to send a replica. I’d really like to bop an Infinite Deorc empyrean supreme such as you and see how you taste,” the self-styled wretched old man cackled.
An empyrean supreme from the land of darkness!
The person wreathed in shadow was one of their empyrean supremes!
Lu Yun swiftly found himself running out of mental processing power as he listened to them speak. An empyrean supreme from the land of darkness had come in person—a real, living empyrean supreme!
Of the two that he’d ever seen in his life, one was the reborn Disordered Empyrean Supreme—who’d fallen to peak grand supreme. The other was the primordial heavenly emperor—he was a ghost. The only real empyrean supreme he’d ever come face to face with was the one in front of him.
And given how the empyrean supreme was treating the wretched old man, the latter was likely a terrifying empyrean supreme as well!
“It’s not that I don’t have the guts to come, but you humans are simply too uncanny. Even when all of your strength is sealed away and you yourselves are suppressed in this eternally dark tomb, you are still able to utilize the dao bones to repress everything related to order. I’m afraid that if my replica came, you would be able to kill my primary body through it,” sighed the dark empyrean supreme.
“Coward,” the elder giant grumbled. “Out with it, what are you here for? You’re not here just for the fruit.” He pointed at the fruit of life and death behind him.
“The fruit contains the power of life and death. One can use it to derive the legendary cycle of reincarnation. Who doesn’t want it?” the dark empyrean supreme cackled. “But compared to that, releasing the human race from the tome of the empyrean supreme seems to be a bit more important.”
“Oh?” The elder raised two white eyebrows. “Can you make the decision in that?”
“Just as you say, it is time that humanity’s tribulation reached its end. Your race should step out into the light of day again,” the dark empyrean supreme spoke matter-of-factly. “But I have a condition. When released, humanity must help the Infinite Deorc eliminate the chief worlds.”
“Piss off,” the wretched old man spat out.
“The chief worlds may look—eh? What did you just say?” Ready to launch into an eloquent speech to analyze the pros and cons of his proposal and the chief worlds, the dark grand supreme jerked to a halt.
“I told you to piss off, did you not hear me?!”
Thunk!
The elder’s white bone staff tapped the air and shattered it, turning it into unchecked spatial turbulence.
Trembling, the dark empyrean supreme’s projection turned and left. A vaunted and noble empyrean supreme didn’t dare express dissatisfaction at a so-called wretched old man!
“You’ve watched for a long time, little guy. Don’t you want to come out and say something?” The elder flashed a half smile at a certain corner of the void.
“I’m over here, elder.” Lu Yun walked docilely out of the void. He knew that the elder giant had discovered him.
“I’ll give you one more chance, where are you?” The elder remained staring in the same spot.
Lu Yun: ……
He appeared where the giant was staring, Chu Xun in his arms. Only then did the giant nod with satisfaction. “Human?”
“Human,” Lu Yun nodded.
“Blood descendent of the great god Pangu?” The elder trembled slightly.
Lu Yun’s expression shifted; he suddenly recalled that when he traveled to the great wilderness, he’d found Leize’s entire family protecting humanity and viewing the race as their own. It was simply because humanity was Pangu’s descendant.
It looks like…
“The great god is still alive!” Lu Yun hastily said.
The elder paused and sighed, “Do you know what those empyrean supremes used to seal us away?”
Lu Yun shook. He hadn’t given it that much thought, but a horrifying possibility appeared in his mind with the giant’s question.
“The… great god… Pangu?” his voice shook.
The primordial heavenly emperor had said that they didn’t know who they’d sectioned, which meant only two possibilities. Either the emperor had lied, or he truly didn’t know and had been used by others.
Most bizarre of all was that the great god later appeared in the chief worlds and became close friends with the god of Mount Tai. He entered the Land of Reincarnation with Hongjun and God to protect the mountain god’s descendants.
Lu Yun’s mind buzzed—the arrangements and plots of the truly great weren’t things he could hazard a guess at.
“Yes,” the elder nodded. “The great god is humanity’s guardian god and blazed the trail for us, carving out our future. Only for the great god’s burial mound would humanity be willingly suppressed and sealed here.
It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from .com.
“I did not actually detect your presence, but no matter what you transform into, the pure bloodline of Pangu in your bones can never be concealed. That is what I sensed as soon as you arrived in the burial mound,” the elder grew more agitated.
“So you guys are no giants, but primitive humanity? This is what we’re supposed to look like?” Lu Yun asked.
“Yes,” the elder nodded. “It has been so long that the denizens of the chief worlds have forgotten us, which is why they view us as giants.”
“Why target the humans?” Lu Yun frowned.
Targeting humanity! Whether it was the World of Immortals or the humans sealed away here, they were a common target of all races that were not humanity!
Race was an ambiguous concept in the chief worlds—apart from humanity.
“Because the human form is a dao entity,” sneered the elder. “We are the most perfect being under order. All beings must transform to the dao form when they cultivate or grow to a certain level. They must look like us to break their shackles and obtain the approval of heaven and earth.
“But humans do not need to undergo that step or change our form. We are born in the form of dao, so of course they target us.”
First came dao form, then came human form.
But human form was dao form and the order of heaven and earth. It was a race that all great daos loved, which naturally drew jealousy from other races. Thus, it was no surprise that they were suppressed here.
They would already be extinct if they were any weaker.
