Chapter 2937 - The Horror of the Human Ancestor

Chapter 2937: The Horror of the Human Ancestor

In the Dark World was a passageway that connected to the Human Realm.

The Human Realm was known as the most perfect realm after the collapse of the Heavenly Path. Under the governance of the Human Ancestor, the Human Realm had been peaceful and stable, and its cultivators, likewise, were strong in strength.

But now, cultivators from the Human Realm had flooded into the Heaven Realm and launched a war of invasion.

At this time, in a city in the Human Realm, a beautiful woman appeared. This woman was dressed in white and looked pristine from head to toe. It was the woman from the Dark World.

The words of the Buddha of Destiny had touched upon the answer she had always wanted to know; therefore, she came to the Human Realm.

As soon as her thoughts moved, countless imageries from the city below came rushing into her mind. The Human Realm instigated the invasion of the Heaven Realm and ignited the fire of war in the Heaven Realm. However, this city inside the Human Realm was peaceful and quiet, forming a stark contrast with the chaos outside.

Inside a particular clan, a few people were talking. A young woman asked, “Master, how is the war outside progressing? Have we taken the Heaven Realm and the Divine Prefecture?”

“The Human Ancestor led the powers of the entire Human Realm to launch the battle of the seven realms. How could he fail? Victory is the only outcome for this war,” her master responded with strong conviction in his voice. It sounded like whatever the Human Ancestor intended to do would indeed become a reality.

“Mmm.” The young woman nodded slightly, but then she seemed to have remembered something, as she continued, “It’s just that in this unprecedented warfare, which the Human Realm started, won’t there be a lot of cultivators who perish because of it? And will there be a lot of innocent lives lost in the Heaven Realm and the Divine Prefecture because of it?”

“Silly girl,” her master laughed in a low voice, “the Human Ancestor fought for the justice of the world, and naturally, there will be collateral damage. As long as the Heaven Realm and the Divine Prefecture are taken, the seven realms will be united, and the world will thrive under the established order by the Human Ancestor. Then they will all thank the Human Ancestor, who will lead the world to the glory of yore. This is the Great Path.”

The woman nodded lightly as if she was suddenly enlightened. She said with a smile, “The Human Ancestor fought to save all living beings in the seven realms. When the seven realms are unified, everyone in the world will believe in the Human Ancestor. Unfortunately, my cultivation is still not advanced enough, or else I will also join the battle and go to the Heaven Realm to fight.”

Just as they were talking amongst themselves, suddenly another person appeared next to them. The two of them were startled as they fixed their attention on the woman who appeared out of nowhere.

They saw the woman frown slightly, a puzzled look on her face as she focused her attention on this teacher and student duo who were talking to each other.

“Heaven and the Divine Prefecture each have its own established order already, especially the Divine Prefecture. Under the governance of Donghuang the Great, the Divine Prefecture is peaceful and prosperous, a place where many in the world had gone to seek the way and cultivate. Why do they need to be saved?” The woman from the Light Path looked at the two. She continued, “They already have their own orders. The invasion of the Human Realm has devastated the lives of many; how can this constitute justice?”

“Who are you?” The elder did not answer her question right away but stared at the woman with heightened alert as he posed the question.

“Answer my question,” the woman said coldly as invisible coercion enveloped the other two, making them both feel a suffocating feeling. The young woman responded, “Ye Futian of the Heaven Realm and Donghuang the Great of the Divine Prefecture were weaving a conspiracy, and it will probably put the world in jeopardy. The Human Ancestor took charge to deal out justice and restore the order of the world. Naturally, this is the justice of the world.”

When she heard this answer, the woman in white felt a little bewildered. The other was not at a tender age of ignorance, and she was no beginner in cultivation. Yet, how could she say such unreasonable things?

“So the Human Ancestor must be in the right?” she asked.

“The Human Ancestor is in the right,” the woman responded.

“Are you disrespecting the Human Ancestor?” The old man’s eyes sharpened. Seeing the reaction of these two, the woman disappeared immediately and left as if she knew that it was useless to talk anymore with them. They were deeply entrenched in their belief, and it was impossible to persuade them otherwise.

Somewhere else, in a major clan in the city, many cultivators were participating in a ritual.

Their clan leader had died in the battle of the Heaven Realm.

The whole clan was grieving.

“Our clan leader answered the call of the Human Ancestor to fight for the order of the world, the unification of the seven realms, and for justice. Although he is no more, his spirit will live on forever.” This solemn pronouncement resounded throughout the crowd. Everyone looked on gravely and knelt to pay their final respect to the dead.

They were the descendants of the ones who died in battle.

But they felt honored; it was as if they were proud of those who died fighting for such causes.

“I want to go to the Heaven Realm to fight in the war as well,” someone said, and everyone else looked at the speaker. A man asked, “Your cultivation is not yet up to par. Don’t you want to cultivate for a while longer before you go?”

“I don’t want to miss it, and I’m afraid such an opportunity will not be there in the future,” the man replied, with a slight fanaticism in his voice.

All these imageries were deeply imprinted in the woman’s mind. Her divine consciousness covered the entire city, and she found that similar sights were happening everywhere. Some were even more outlandish than this.

Cultivators of the Human Realm had this deep-rooted belief that this was a fight for the justice of the world and to restore the order of the world. The Human Ancestor was their absolute belief, which could not be shaken. Even if their loved ones died in the battle, their hatred was targeted squarely at the Heaven Realm, and they did not feel much sadness.

The woman’s face changed, and the calmness and tranquility she had moments ago were gone. At this moment, countless images appeared in her mind, and the past came alive vividly before her eyes.

She remembered that in her cultivation journey, she, too, had gone astray and sunken into darkness when she was young. She had forsaken everything and was trapped in demonic barriers. In the name of cultivation, she lost her humanity. She would never forget the expressions on the faces of her parents when they perished at her hands.

However, she seemed to be possessed at that time, continuing her walk deeper on the road of darkness and turning into the devil herself. She had seen all the darkness in the world and experienced hell on earth.

Until one day, she became the Master of Darkness.

All those things in the Human Realm now had a familiar feel, but even she knew that these cultivators were not under direct control.

She disappeared, and she embarked to other places in the Human Realm. She found that it was the same everywhere. She had even seen something more exaggerated, like those cultivators from the Human Realm who believed in justice. They regarded invasion and killing as the right thing to do and as their life’s mission.

“Human Ancestor!”

At this time, the woman stood in the void, and she could only feel a biting iciness all over her body. In those quiet eyes, there was only darkness at this moment and an extremely palpable murderous intent.

She had never liked the Human Ancestor. She thought that the Human Ancestor was hypocritical and pretended to be virtuous. From the Human Ancestor, she could see the shadow of her own Master.

At this moment, she had a feeling that she might be right and that it was not the shadow of her Master.

It was possible that Human Ancestor could be her Master.

The cultivator who brought him into the darkness was very likely the incarnation of the Human Ancestor.

And only the Human Ancestor had such abilities.

Crack! With her fists clenched, a frantic will of destruction was about to burst from her, but it was suppressed by her. It was an unforgettable hatred that she was feeling right now.

The Human Ancestor was able to influence the thoughts and emotions of all the cultivators in the entire Human Realm. He had already advanced to such a terrifying place that the entire Human Realm completely belonged to him!
