Chapter 154 - 154 200,000 Years Ago
154 200,000 Years Ago
A black and red light wrapped around Chu Bai’s body, then entered the space between his eyebrows.
As this energy entered his body, Chu Bai felt an unknown change in his heart.
It was as if nothing had changed, but at the same time, something seemed to have appeared.
The feelings of despair, anger, sorrow, pain, death, and slaughter that made him overwhelmed had completely disappeared.
Now, he felt very comfortable.
Compared to the feeling of being better off dead just now, this was heaven.
[Ding. Your hidden class is ranked first on the hidden class leaderboard. Do you want to hide your ID?]
The system notification came.
The hidden class that ranked first…
This class seemed to be really awesome.
Before Chu Bai could reply, a voice was heard.
“You really made it.”
Chu Bai suddenly turned around and looked at him.
“Shura?!”
“That’s right. Shura.” The man nodded.
Chu Bai’s understanding of Shura was limited to some legends in reality. It seemed like this was an existence that focused on killing.
Shura was equivalent to slaughter.
From what Chu Bai felt just now, it seemed similar, but there were many other powers.
Chu Bai did not know how strong Shura’s power was. He only knew that being a Shura did not add much to his attributes. Other than the 400 points in attack, his health and mana were equivalent to that of a normal hidden class.
However, the Shura was the number one hidden class. This already showed how powerful this class was.
“Why did you want to give this power to me when you’ve met so many more powerful people?” Chu Bai asked with a frown.
He was not very happy. Even though he had not seen the attributes of this class, Chu Bai could feel that it might not be good.
This meant that it might not be a good thing for him to get this class.
It was because this power made him feel uneasy.
“Because you were chosen by the Calamity Fox, the God Slaying Calamity, and the Daughter of Destruction. You’re the best successor to the Shura’s power.”
The Daughter of Destruction…
Little Demon?
Why destruction?
“You know Little Demon?”
Chu Bai asked with a frown.
…
The man laughed out loud, then looked at Chu Bai. “I can’t be sure who she is, but her power is the Daughter of Destruction.”
“Why destruction? She’s clearly more of a creation,” Chu Bai said.
“In that case, the Calamity Fox is able to heal all living things. Why is it called the Calamity Fox?” he asked in return.
“I don’t know either.” Chu Bai shook his head.
“Everything has its own destiny.”
The man’s eyes seemed to be immersed in his memories.
“She and I are the same kind of people. We’re all tragic sacrifices, hahaha…” His laughter at the end was self-deprecating.
“What do you mean?”
He then looked at Chu Bai.
“Kid, the Shura is the strongest power in this world, even the strongest power in this universe. There is no other power like it. It has transcended all worlds and can’t be controlled by mortals or gods.”
Chu Bai was speechless.
“I know what you want to say. You’re just a mortal. Why did I give this power to you, and why did I harm you?”
“So you can tell?”
Chu Bai frowned and said unhappily.
“Let me tell you a story…”
…
200,000 years ago…
On the land of Fate.
A woman named Lin Ya had created a technique that burned one’s life in order to cultivate. It could help many ordinary people on the continent who could not cultivate to become warriors.
In a short time, hundreds of millions of people on the continent embarked on the road of cultivation.
However, since ancient times, burning one’s lifespan as a way of cultivation had been defined as an evil technique. Evil techniques were strictly prohibited. Once discovered, one would be defined as a member of an evil sect.
All the major sects on the continent attacked Lin Ya together, and Lin Ya was surrounded and killed. She was burned to death.
At the top of the sky…
A man in a black robe was standing there.
His body was wrapped in black energy.
In front of him stood a woman.
The woman’s body was surrounded by a noble white light.
One was black while one was white; one was light while one was dark.
“You don’t have to persuade me,” the man said in a deep voice.
He removed the dark energy from his body.
The woman stared at him.
“Come back and forget the past and the hatred. After all… she was the one who first cultivated the evil technique and spread it around.”
The man raised his head, his eyes locked.
“You also think that it’s Ah Ya’s fault? What did she do wrong? In order to allow everyone to cultivate, she studied this technique to benefit the continent. What did my sister do wrong?”
“In the eyes of light, burning one’s lifespan as a way of cultivation is an evil technique. In my eyes, it’s the same,” the woman said indifferently.
“However, if one’s cultivation level increases, one can obtain a longer lifespan, right?”
The woman said, “That’s also an evil technique. Come back. You can’t win against the entire continent. Forget about yesterday.”
“Yesterday was a dream, but today… It’s dark,” the man closed his eyes and said tiredly.
“Yesterday was dark, but tomorrow is bright.” The woman’s red lips parted.
The man turned around.
“You can leave.”
Whoosh!
The woman clenched the sword in her hand and pointed it at him.
“Lin Ming, you’ve changed. You’ve abandoned your soul in exchange for darkness.”
The man laughed.
“I have no regrets.”
“Lin Ming, I’m telling you one last time. Give up on the darkness and chaos you’re looking for. Chaos won’t lead you to the truth; it’ll lead you to extinction,” the woman said coldly.
Lin Ming turned around abruptly and pointed at her angrily, “Chaos is the truth. Chaos can grant freedom.”
“You’ve mistaken chaos for freedom!” the woman said with a frown.
“Without chaos, the universe would be meaningless. Everything would be meaningless. Order would be illusory, and only chaos would be real.”
“Chaos is illusory, order is real,” the woman said with certainty.
It was obvious that their values, world views, and cognition were completely opposite.
Lin Ming stared at her. “You’ve been blinded by the Light. You’re mistaking the light for the truth. Can’t you see it? Every massacre is done in the name of peace. Is this light? The light doesn’t know redemption; it only knows conquest.”
“Fallacy!” the woman said.
Lin Ming turned around again and walked into the distance. His voice echoed, “I’ll definitely destroy the so-called light and do it myself.”
“Then I’ll definitely stop you!”
…
A year later…
North Wind Town.
The woman followed a group of people to this place.
In front of them, smoke and fire filled the air.
An old woman was standing beside the woman.
“Yue’er, this is the first time I’ve brought you to the front line. In the past, you’ve only participated in battles against experts. In the future, you’ll have to participate in more front-line battles because you’ll need to lead troops in the future.”
“I understand, Master.”
The old woman nodded, looking at the battle ahead. “This North Wind City is filled with cultivators who practice evil arts. If we let them live, they’ll only bring disaster to the continent. Let’s go over.”
The city was filled with corpses. The woman did not have much sympathy for them.
They all deserved to die.
“I beg you, please don’t kill my mother. I beg you.”
A little boy knelt in front of a few soldiers, and behind him was a woman covered in blood.
The woman looked over.
“These are the remnants of the heretics. Kill them all.”
The spear pierced through the little boy’s body.
“Ah Bin, Ah Bin!” His mother was crying as she crawled forward on her knees.
The spear was thrust into the woman’s back.
“Ah… Bin…”
The woman coughed up blood and crawled to the boy’s body. She held him with difficulty and stopped breathing.
The woman’s brows furrowed when she saw this.
“How did this happen?”
