Chapter 1170: Creation Myth! Secret Histories of the Chaotic Human Race!
"An official opportunity to clarify a question."
Bodhi Master said.
"Is this question that expensive?"
Zhou Zhou asked.
"Of course. This is a secret known only at the level of the Supreme Will—how could it possibly be cheap?"
Bodhi Master replied.
"Secrets at the level of the Supreme Will... alright, I'll take it."
Zhou Zhou said.
"Actually, normally, even if you asked me, I wouldn't be able to tell you this."
"But now your power has reached the level of a Supreme God, and you've gained access to a small portion of the secrets from that realm."
"I'll have to reluctantly tell you that."
"To explain it in detail, we must begin with the primordial myth of creation."
Bodhi, the Supreme, spoke softly, "Before the emergence of the Highest Cosmos and the Crimson Cosmos, the entire universe existed in a state of pure chaos."
"At that time, it was not the Supreme Will or the Master of Crimson that ruled over the chaotic cosmos, but rather the Will of Chaos itself."
"The Supreme Will and the Master of Crimson were, in fact, the eldest and second daughter of the Will of Chaos."
"Hold on."
"Are there familial relationships among beings of such willful existence?"
Zhou Zhou suddenly asked, his face taking on a strange expression.
"The concept of 'emotion' is itself one of the infinite laws. Indeed, even within the infinite laws, the law of emotion ranks among the top twenty. Is it not entirely natural that the Will of Chaos, the Master of Crimson, and the Supreme Will should share familial ties?"
"And indeed, the Supreme Will and the Red Sovereign both originated from the Chaos Law, and both willingly acknowledged the Chaos Will as their father."
"Only later did the Supreme Will emerge as a natural sovereign and supreme ruler, surpassing the Chaos Will, thus establishing the current dominion of the Supreme Will."
Bodhi, unmoved by Zhou Zhou's interruption, calmly explained.
"I understand. Please continue."
Zhou Zhou nodded.
"Eventually, the Chaos Will realized it was about to create the heavens and the earth—an act that would inevitably lead to its own extinction. Thus, it decided to divide its essence and authority between either its eldest or second daughter before its demise."
"Ultimately, because the Supreme Will's laws were most suited to govern the new cosmos, the Supreme Will bestowed its authority upon itself, thereby inheriting the primordial source of Chaos. And from half of the Chaos Will's remains, the Supreme Great Cosmos was born."
"Half of its body?"
Zhou Zhou was stunned. "Was the Chaos Will divided?"
"Yes."
The tone of Bodhi's words was rare in its solemnity. "Because the Will of Chaos decreed that the Primordial Source Authority be bestowed upon the Supreme Will, the Red Lord expressed profound dissatisfaction, believing himself to be the most fitting heir to that authority."
"These two powers engaged in fierce struggle over the Primordial Source Authority, ultimately splitting the corpse of the Will of Chaos in half—half falling into the hands of the Supreme Will, the other half into those of the Red Lord."
"Each Supreme Will then forged the Supreme Great Cosmos and the Crimson Great Cosmos from this half of the corpse, and they have since waged endless wars over their respective authority, continuing to this day."
"From here, I shall recount the story of the Chaotic Race."
"After the corpse of the Will of Chaos was split in two, the Chaotic Race—those who were bound to the Will of Chaos—also suffered a division."
"Approximately five percent of the Chaotic Race settled within the domain of the Supreme Will, while the vast majority rebranded themselves as the Crimson Chaotic Race and pledged allegiance to the Red Lord, becoming one of his most vital affiliates."
"The Chaotic Race under the Supreme Will, being exceedingly scarce, found themselves further marginalized by the presence of the Chaotic Deity Race as a substitute. As a result, the Supreme Will showed little regard for this already rare people, leading to the gradual decline of the Chaotic Race—until eventually, even the rites of passage for full adulthood could no longer be properly observed."
"In contrast, the Crimson Chaotic Race under the Red Lord could still perform their rites of passage, yet these were rites governed by Crimson Rules—distinct from the original rites of passage under the rule of the Will of Chaos. They carried more ferocity, less peace."
"This is precisely why the Chaotic Race you see now differs so greatly from the one possessed by Os."
Thus spoke Bodhi.
"It's actually like this."
Zhou Zhou nodded thoughtfully.
Then he folded the Bodhi Sovereign and reviewed the effects of the Chaos Corpse statue once more.
The effects were quite good—though he couldn't use them himself, they could be utilized by his subordinates, giving his side an additional pseudo-Overlord combat power.
Only then did he turn his gaze to the final prompt.
"Can the Collector's effect be used here too?"
Zhou Zhou felt a flicker of surprise.
Could it be that after using the Chaos Corpse statue once, the Collector's talent automatically replenished the divine blood within the Chaos Corpse statue?
He pondered this possibility in his mind.
He didn't dwell on it further—after all, if it worked, that was enough.
Then He turned his gaze to the next divine-tier artifact—the lower-tier divine array known as the Ten Directions Without Boundaries Array.
This array could forge a boundless realm, perfect for imprisoning enemies. Even if the foe possessed abilities such as teleportation or spatial manipulation, they would be utterly trapped within this infinite expanse. The wielder could even freely reposition the captive or directly suppress the enemy with the power of the array itself.
Zhou Zhan had already tested it on the battlefield, and the results were nothing short of spectacular—especially when facing entire enemy armies. Thus, He only glanced at it briefly before moving on to the next mid-tier divine artifact.
It was a simple scarecrow, unadorned and ordinary, with a blank space upon it, as if one might inscribe something there.
[Artifact Name: Scarecrow of Fate]
[Artifact Tier: Mid-Divine]
[Artifact Effect: Write the name of the enemy you wish to kill upon the scarecrow. Upon killing the target, their fate is likewise extinguished—rendering them incapable of resurrection or rebirth through any means.]
[Artifact Description: A scarecrow capable of cursing fate, imbued with a terrifying power of doom.]
Zhou Zhou stared at the scarecrow in his hands, a wary unease settling within him.
A master of survival tactics and a practitioner of numerous resurrection methods, he feared such artifacts more than any other.
Fortunately, this artifact now rests firmly in one's own hands.
Yet, one must still find more resurrection methods for higher-tier gods, even those of the Supreme God level, in the future.
Otherwise, should such an artifact reappear and one happen to die at the very moment—then truly, one would be beyond salvation.
He could not be certain whether his final Lord's state of transcendence could withstand such a divine-level annihilation.
Then, he tucked away the Fate Mannequin and turned his gaze to the next divine-tier relic.
[Relic Name: Pseudo-Reverse Path Wheel]
[Relic Rank: Supreme God Tier]
[Relic Effect: A replica of the Supreme Artifact—the Reverse Path Wheel—capable of absorbing and rebounding any attack from Supreme God Tier and below.]
[Relic Description: A Supreme God-tier artifact forged by the Heaven-Fire God as a copy of the Supreme Artifact, the Reverse Path Wheel, capable of absorbing and repelling attacks from any God-tier level.]
[Current Usage Count of Pseudo-Reverse Path Wheel: 3/3]
[Tip: Thanks to the bonus from your Collector Lord talent, the current usage of the Pseudo-Inverse Wheel has increased to: 7/7]
Zhou Zhou's eyes lit up.
This artifact is quite promising.
If used properly, it might yield extraordinary results!
Then He turned his gaze to the final main god-tier relic.
