Chapter 3347: Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings

The Martial Dao Prime Body’s heart skipped a beat!

Not only had he seen Saint Lord Reincarnation before, he had even fought him?

Figures flashed through the mind of the Martial Dao Prime Body before stopping on a single person!

“Feng Du!”

The Martial Dao Prime Body said slowly.

Fengdu was the Lord of the Netherworld and there was a Six Paths of Reincarnation in the Netherworld.

Among the experts the Martial Dao Prime Body had come into contact with and exchanged blows with, he was probably the only one who could become Saint Lord Reincarnation!

However, an even greater doubt appeared in the heart of the Martial Dao Prime Body.

If Feng Du was Saint Lord Reincarnation, it would not be surprising for him to have eternal life.

However, with that status, how was his achievements in the medium chiliocosm inferior to the Fiend Lord and the others. How could he not become a Great Emperor?

The Fiend Lord, Empress Evil and the others had all chosen to ascend to the major chiliocosm. Why was Feng Du still in the Netherworld?

In other words, apart from Saint Lord Life, Saint Lord Reincarnation of the past was not dead either?

Feng Du carried the Book of Life and Death refined by the black-robed man.

They were clearly on the same side and had a certain relationship.

The Martial Dao Prime Body had once suppressed Feng Du but the black-robed man had never revealed any hostility towards him. Why was that?

If Feng Du was Saint Lord Reincarnation, what was the status of the black-robed man?

What was the relationship between the Fiend Lord, Empress Evil, Brahma Ghost Mother, the Lord of Hell and the black-robed man?

The black-robed man nodded. “Feng Du was indeed Saint Lord Reincarnation in the past. However, the current him is only a wisp of his soul.”

“Back then, when Saint Lord Reincarnation’s body was destroyed, only this wisp of soul was left.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was silent.

During the huge turmoil in the major chiliocosm more than six billion years ago, although the Mountain Chief’s cultivation realm fell, he at least managed to survive and had already recovered to his peak.

However, Saint Lord Reincarnation only had a wisp of soul remaining and became Feng Du, presiding over the Netherworld.

“All of Feng Du’s actions were instigated by you, right?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked indifferently.

The Nine Heavens was undoubtedly the source of the tragedy for all living beings in the medium chiliocosm.

Over the countless years, Feng Du had also committed countless atrocities in the medium chiliocosm!

“Fufu…”

Suddenly, the black-robed man smiled with a mocking and disdainful expression. “And you think that the number of living beings killed by Feng Du is significant? There are living beings who have done things a hundred or even thousand times more ruthless than Feng Du. What about them? Who can do anything to them?”

“Who are they?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked immediately, “What was the turmoil that happened in the major chiliocosm back then? Who are you?”

“The chaos of the world has its own laws, regulations and cycles. Be it the billions of minor chiliocosms, the medium chiliocosm or even the major chiliocosm, there will always be all sorts of calamities.”

The black-robed man did not reply to his question. “When living beings of the ten thousand races cultivate and grow, it’s either for survival, power or longevity. When fate interweaves, countless karma will form.”

“During this process, there will definitely be all sorts of killing and fighting between the living beings of the ten thousand races. It will become even more intense and at a certain node, a calamity might break out eventually.”

“There are minor and major calamities, but they’re ultimately within a relatively controllable range. These can be called the measurable calamities.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body could not help but recall the many calamities that happened in Tianhuang Mainland.

In order to refine all living beings of Tianhuang Mainland into the Blood race, Dao Lord Blood Fiend alone caused several catastrophes.

In the primordial era, there was even an invasion by the God race.

In this generation, there were the primordial races who joined forces to suppress the ten thousand races.

There were countless minor and major calamities.

However, indeed, it was as the black-robed man had said. Because of the appearance of him and people like Monk Daming, these calamities were all resolved.

According to the black-robed man, these calamities could be called measurable calamities.

The black-robed man continued, “However, above the measurable calamities exists an Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings. Once that calamity breaks out, it’s uncontrollable and irreversible.”

“The trichiliocosm shall return to chaos and the masses will die. Even in the major chiliocosm, there will be few who can survive.”

“Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned when he heard that and was puzzled.

The information revealed by the black-robed man’s words had already exceeded his current cultivation realm and understanding of the world and universe.

“Why would there be an Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings?”

The Martial Dao Prime Body asked.

The black-robed man said, “When living beings of the ten thousand races reproduce and cultivate, the higher their cultivation realms, the more resources they consume.”

“As a cultivator’s lifespan increases, the energy accumulated in their bodies increases as well. It will reach its peak the moment they attain eternal life.”

“The energy of the world and universe is not endless. If there is only constant absorption without any release, there will come a day when the universe will dry up and edge towards destruction!”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was deep in thought.

Back then, the Fiend Lord had said something similar to him.

“Mortals have less than a hundred years of lifespan. After they die, their souls will return to the world and their flesh and blood will dissipate. All energy will return to nature. Some will be absorbed and some will be released. It won’t destroy the balance of the world.”

“However, the existence of cultivators broke that balance.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body frowned. “You’re saying that the source of the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings is the cultivators of the world?”

“Of course.”

The black-robed man shook his head. “The heavens are strong and are able to rejuvenate themselves. In fact, the cultivation of living beings is in line with the laws and cycle of the world to begin with. However, what truly broke that balance and the source that triggered the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings is the existence of Eternal Beings!”

“No matter how strong a cultivator is, the energy accumulated in their bodies is limited. Furthermore, they will die one day and the energy will return to the world.”

“However, that’s not the case for Eternal Beings. They have motives, the seven emotions and six desires, and possess eternal life to boot.”

“The more Eternal Beings there are, the faster the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings will arrive.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was silent for a moment before asking, “What’s the connection between the huge turmoil of the major chiliocosm back then and the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings?”

The Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings definitely did not happen. Otherwise, the trichiliocosm would have been destroyed and none of them would even exist right now.

The black-robed man said, “Some Saints were worried that the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings would descend and endanger themselves, so they wanted to kill all living beings in the universe in advance and clear the karma of the world to delay the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings.”

“They’ve done this more than once in their long lives and are long familiar with it.”

Although the black-robed man said it calmly, the Martial Dao Prime Body was shocked when he heard that.

Everyone below the Saint realm was an ant—it was definitely not a lie!

Killing all living beings in the universe meant that apart from the Saints, all living beings in the world would die. All life in the billions of minor chiliocosms, medium chiliocosm and major chiliocosm would be wiped out!

What sort of a terrifying massacre was that?!

Compared to Feng Du’s actions, it was indeed nothing.

The black-robed man said, “However, more than six billion years ago, another group of Saints could not bear to see all living beings suffer, so they stood out and tried their best to stop it. A battle of the Saints broke out between the two parties. That was the origin of the huge turmoil.”

The outcome of that huge turmoil was naturally the death of many Saints as well as the destruction of three Sanctuaries.

Due to the complete deaths of many Saints, there were vacancies in the Great Dao Saint Positions and energy was returned to the universe. Indirectly, it also delayed the Immeasurable Calamity of All Beings, preventing all living beings in the Three Realms from being exterminated and killed!

The black-robed man pointed at the ruins beneath him. “The Saints who died in that battle of the Saints were all buried here.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body said, “There are 3,000 corpses here and they’re all from the human race.”

He had long noticed it after all those years of cultivation.

The black-robed man said, “The group of Saints who stood out back then were the 3,000 Saints of the human race.”

The Martial Dao Prime Body was moved.
