Chapter 479: The Hundred-Year Period

This was outside a wrecked chiliocosm. It was also the second one found.
The first one was found 10 years ago. At that time, Jiang Ming directly descended from the Dragon Phoenix Heavenly Heart Bed. After discussing with Pan Wang, he allowed the Chaotic World Tree to devour the destroyed chiliocosm.
Back then, Pan Wang was extremely astonished when he saw the tree. It was especially the supreme power that was contained within the World Tree, which rendered Pan Wang dumbfounded and felt that he stood no chance against it.
This was the second wrecked chiliocosm they discovered. As soon as Jiang Ming arrived, he kept his avatar and started examining it.
The universe that should be vibrant, had become all withered, filled with endless aura of decaying and death. If a Great Overarching Golden Immortal were to step foot into it, he wouldn’t even last a quarter of an hour before getting eroded to death by the overwhelming aura of decaying and death.
!!The universe’s membrane was full of holes. Some of the places even had huge fissures directly torn nearly a light-years size. If it weren’t for the residual power of the universe still resisting and keeping it together, this dead universe would’ve completely collapsed.
“As the universe dies, all the sentient beings perish!” Pan Wang sighed.
There was even the feeling of being on the same boat as that universe.
This universe had fallen. What about their own universe? Wouldn’t there be a day like this too? As the universe marched towards its extinction, how many living beings could even survive inside? Not even one in a billion would be able to. Other than a small number of Cosmic and Supreme Experts, the rest would have to return into the Chaos.
With countless sentient perishing, it also produced the extremely terrifying aura of death, resentment, and curses. Even such a powerful person as Pan Wang dare not provoke these aura.
“What is the meaning behind the existence of life?” Hong Ying had a confused look on her face. “The world is born and all spirits are conceived, yet it will eventually perish and pave towards its destruction. Could it be that it is only for the transcendence of a few existences? What about the meaning of the birth of the world?”
Pan Wang could not answer.
Neither could Jiang Ming.
Some questions were ultimately destined to have no answers.
“Brother Jiang, let’s begin!” Pan Wang finally spoke.
As Jiang Ming nodded his head, he took out the World Tree and it began to expand rapidly. This time however, it did not create a great storm as it did back at Xuanhuang Great Chiliocosm. As it expanded, it naturally devoured all the qi of Chaos.
The wind was calm. There weren’t even a single ripple. The entire immensely huge dilapidated universe was surrounded by the tree. Such a scene still shocked Pan Wang.
To think that a whole great chiliocosm was encompassed by a tree. The vastness of the scene and the grandeur of the waves was mind-blowing.
“Seeing this again still makes me feel unbelievable.” Hong Ying marveled, “Brother Jiang, just how powerful have you become? Is this really the power of a King Saint?”
The only thing Jiang Ming could do was to nod his head, as he had already given the same answer a long time ago.
“Unbelievable!” Hong Ying whispered.
“When you get to this point, you will naturally feel that this is normal.” Jiang Ming laughed.
“This point? Can I even do so?” Hong Ying doubted herself.
“If he says you can, you definitely can!” Pan Wang laughed, “At this point in life, his word is his bond.”
Hong Ying’s eyes suddenly gleamed as she walked over to Jiang Ming’s side. She naturally tried to hold Jiang Ming’s arm but was blocked out, making her quite sultry.
Jiang Ming pretended to have not seen it instead.
Didn’t he want to? He did. It’s just that when he remembered his junior sister tossing him around near death, he was about to lose a certain interest already. He almost completely lost interest.
Perhaps…Would there be a change with something fresh? Would he be re-energized? Would this once again reignite the masculinity of him being a man?
As these thoughts ran through Jiang Ming’s mind, he completely suppressed such ideas.
Watching the wrecked universe being wrapped and swallowed by the World Tree in front of them, such a grandeur scene was still too shocking.
The aura of death, grievance, fury, calamity, destruction and the likes that were inside that universe might all be poisonous to the Saints. However, these were instead endless sustenance to the World’s Tree.
It was true that everything in the world was food.
However, the time required to devour a whole universe was naturally not something that can be completed overnight.
“Brother Pan, I will give you help after this. However, I don’t know if it’s enough for your breakthrough!” Jiang Ming’s heart suddenly fluttered and announced so.
“Thanks a lot, Brother Jiang!” Pan Wang was overjoyed.
During the last devouring of a universe, he had obtained a lot of fragments of the Law of Origin. After absorbing and digesting them, although they managed to enhance his accumulation, the chances of him breaking through still felt rather slim.
Now that he heard Jiang Ming saying that he was going to help him out, he was happy for sure.
After Jiang Ming left an avatar in his place, he returned to Chuyang Peak again.
Watching the flowers bloom and fall, the clouds rolling in and out, eating the delicacies throughout the heavens and the earth, and playing…
There was really nothing much to say about such daily routines.
He occasionally remembered many incidents of his previous life, chasing and striving throughout his life, to lose spirits and suffering with grievances with no one to tell but himself. He couldn’t help but lament the days.
This current world was still the better one.
Days and months went by. Time continued flowing endlessly.
Tianyuan World remained as peaceful as always.
There were constantly people breaking through everywhere. There were quite a number of Great Overarching Experts already., and there were even countless Taiyi Experts.
Looking through the entire Tianyuan Sea, it was even more lively than before and filled with Great Overarching Experts.
This was a supreme era for the current human race.
Meanwhile, the other races went into hibernation.
Back in Jiuyang Main hall, Gu Hai could be seen wandering into the place.
There were several First Seats there. They liked to gather there when they weren’t cultivating, and take out a few small mirrors to peep throughout the world. When they spot a beautiful lady, they would quietly give their opinions. ‘This lady seems to be of the norm. Look at her, her chest is low and her hip seems small and skinny. There isn’t much to marvel about. She’s not worth peeking at, not worth at all. If she wore a little less, then there might still be something worthy to look at.’
Wear lesser clothing? The other few nodded in agreement.
Gu Hai who suddenly came in, couldn’t help but grimace, ‘You old bangers! You’re all too unashamed! If word gets out about this, people would think that our Jiuyang Sacred Land is a devil’s cave instead!”
“It’s just too peaceful!” First Seat of Laoyang picked up a gourd and took a sip. “Huh, Mr Gu! You’ve changed a lot. By just taking a look at you, my primal spirit is surprisingly trembling. Could it be that you’ve broken through again?”
The others all looked over at them as well.
“Haha! That’s for sure!” Gu Hai stroked his beard as his eyebrows danced. “I accidentally broke through again a few days ago, directly stepping into the Quasi-Sage Realm. Haha! Alas, the Quasi Sage Realm! I can now suppress all of you with just one hand.”
“Why are you being so smug? It’s just because the two of your disciples are secretly helping you. Otherwise, with your natural aptitude, you might still be pacing around the Taiyi Realm instead.” First Seat of Lieyang Peak said sourly.
“I have two great disciples. Of course I’m smug about it! If you have the guts, you can also nurture a disciple into a Saint as well.” Gu Hai tilted his chin and said proudly.
The First Seat of Lieyang Peak was rendered speechless.
‘Nurture a disciple into the Saint Realm? Isn’t this pulling on people’s legs? Bollocks! What a pile of bollocks!’
Yet another day of Gu Hai’s deceitfulness began in the main hall.
Back in Chuyang Peak, Jiang Ming was muttering to himself.
“I’m one hundred and seventeen years old now! To think that I’m over a hundred years old already. Does that make me an old person? Perhaps, it does. Haha! Who would have thought I would live to be more than a hundred years old. Ugh, I can’t believe I’m getting happy about this. The System has been running for 99 years now. One year short of the 100-year period. Alas! A single year to go. Who knows what kind of astonishing event that will occur? What’s more, I wonder what changes will come to the System?”
Jiang Ming was both excitedly expectant and apprehensive at the same time.
