Chapter 1851 - Part of the Truth
The creatures of darkness withdrew. The surface of the great earth was covered in scars, mountains and rivers eroded. Even now, there was still some black matter that remained.
This was an inner sea, within the depths of the great continent, but it was connected to the outer sea. It was pitch-black like ink, quiet and silent.
Shi Hao sat on the cliff, holding a fishing rod made from pure copper. He had already been fishing for a few months. His primordial spirit radiated in all directions, examining the rise and fall of the great dao, seeing the movements of the universe, understanding a bit of the truth of the seas and continents.
The number of darkness creatures became fewer, but they still existed. Comparatively speaking, they were a bit weaker, at the very least, there were no darkness supreme beings left, brought away by the original true creatures of the darkness world.
The creatures who remained, there were those from Self Release Realm all the way down to ordinary cultivators, all of them abandoned, not brought away.
After several decades passed, these creatures were no longer muddle-headed, obtaining their own consciousness, to the extent where some comparatively stronger individuals became no different from ordinary people.
What made Shi Hao shiver all over was that these creatures who developed their own consciousness were all in sorrow, all of them lamenting, carrying regrets, as well as endless sorrow.
They were reminiscing about their homeland, their family.
In their eyes, they were victims who were suppressed by the creatures of the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, slaughtered, their homes taken, the territory they depended on to survive destroyed.
These creatures believed that the Nine Heavens Ten Earths were originally their homeland, but over half was then forcefully occupied. Their side’s clans’ experts all withdrew in defeat, leaving this great world.
They had their ancestral lands seized by devils, chased out of their homelands, now only a ruined world left. Fortunately, the devils also suffered serious casualties, the devil kings had no choice but to stop fighting, temporarily ending the conflict, stopping the bloody invasions on them.
This was the present situation those creatures acknowledged.
Shi Hao was a bit distracted. The darkness corroded these mountains and rivers. When those corpses developed wills, there were actually this type of terrifying primordial spirit imprints, the memories becoming truth.
These creatures of darkness were furious, in grief and sorrow. They roared out, feeling like they were victims, that they lost too much.
At this moment, Shi Hao felt like there was a wave of mysterious chilliness on his body. This ‘truth’ was still truly cruel, leaving him truly shaken, his brows furrowing tightly.
At this time, he thought of some old things.
He remembered that the first time he entered the other side, it was when he was still in Imperial pass, brought away by an all life source energy cauldron, entering a strange and ancient great world.
That was precisely the outer regions of the other side, the border region.
In that place, there were creatures just like in the Nine Heavens Ten Earths, but in their hearts, what they felt and thought was completely different from this world. They believed that in the so-called ‘other side’ was fighting against devils, that they were the true victims.
Mo Dao, a young foreign expert who cultivated there strands of immortal energy, someone Shi Hao previously subdued, was precisely from that land.
He was subdued by Shi Hao, but in the end, he still didn’t change his beliefs. He always thought that in the endless years past, they were slaughtered, invaded, that they were left with no choice but to fight the Nine Heavens.
