“This might not be all that bad.”


Chen Heng glanced at the silent God of Shadows and said softly, “Even if you cannot change anything in your lifetime, and you are destined to devote your devout faith to you, there is nothing bad about living in such a world..”


“Huh?”


The God of Shadows raised his head and looked at Chen Heng in front of him as if he did not expect him to say such a thing.


After everything that had happened previously and observing Chen Heng’s various actions, the God of Shadows thought that Chen Heng was just like him and did not agree with this approach.

!!

However, he did not expect it to be like this.


Facing the God of Shadows’ somewhat doubtful gaze, Chen Heng smiled and said, “All the paths in this world all lead to the same destination.


“Everything would just lead to eternity.


“But there is more than one path to eternity. There are different ways.”


He looked at the land beneath his feet and the people constantly striving to advance. “Take the people under my feet, for example…


“This civilization seems to be beautiful. Every once in a while, there will be new advancements and developments in various technologies. It seems to be moving towards the path to eternity…


“But the development of this civilization has nothing to do with the majority…”


He spoke softly. Nostalgia appeared in his eyes. “In this civilization, although the majority seem to be able to live well, in reality, they still exist as a foundation. The ones who truly push this world forward are still those few people.


“Similarly, eternity cannot be achieved in one page a day. Looking at the endless cycle of the future, even the group of people in front of us are still just stepping stones on the road…


“Eternity may be achieved, but at that time, it will no longer have anything to do with the group of people under our feet…


“What’s the difference between this and the believers under your command?”


He looked at the God of Shadows and said softly.


The God of Shadows paused as if he thought of something. What would be the initial goal for life to descend into this world?


Everyone had their own answer to this question. But in the eyes of the divine existences like Chen Heng and the God of Shadows, the answer to this question was very clear.


No matter what life was, eternity was their instinctive pursuit, a desire carved into their bones. Whether it was the lowly mortals, the high and mighty gods, or the world itself, eternity was their eternal pursuit.


From this perspective, whether it was the group of independent mortals under their feet who had developed into such a state by relying on themselves or the God of Shadows who had relied on many believers to reach this step before them. There was no difference. In essence, they were all just pursuers of eternity. It was just that on this road, both sides chose a different path.


The people of the world in front of them chose to be independent and rely on their power to move forward, ultimately achieving the goal of sublimation. And the living beings in the World of Gods walked on another road because of the existence of gods.


They entrusted their existence to the gods and gathered the power of all people to worship them so that the gods could continue to advance and reach a higher level.


Perhaps one day, when the god they worshiped reached the eternal level, these believers who had worshiped the gods could also receive a reward and obtain eternal coexistence with the gods.


The two paths did not seem to have any difference in essence. They were just different choices made to seek the eternal. It was just that the process was different in appearance.


In Chen Heng’s view, these two paths did not matter whether they were better or worse. From a higher perspective, all the people and things that could not obtain the eternal would eventually disappear.


Withering was the eternal destination of all things. Since that was the case, there was naturally no need to distinguish between the superior and inferior.


Standing in place and listening to Chen Heng’s words, the God of Shadows could not help but fall into deep thought.


On the other hand, the God of Nature said, “It seems that the first divine existence will soon be born in this world…”


The God of Nature stood beside the God of Shadows. Even though her strength could not be compared to Chen Heng’s, at this moment, she did not seem inferior to the God of Shadows at all. The aura on her body was so powerful and divine, approaching the highest level of divinity.


This was impossible for the past God of Nature. But the God of Nature did not stay idle for thousands of years. Instead, she made great progress.


She explored the Primogenitor World and successfully found traces of the Ancient Tree Primogenitor in the past years. She suppressed it and then used thousands of years to digest it, fusing the authority on its body into one.


The authority of the Ancient Tree Primogenitor was very compatible with the divinity of the God of Nature. Therefore, her strength was greatly improved after the God of Nature obtained the power of the Ancient Tree Primogenitor.


In terms of other things, at least at the moment, the strength of the God of Nature was not inferior to some high-level gods. She might still be inferior to the God of Shadows, but she was not inferior to the Eye of Chaos and other gods.


Speaking of the Eye of Chaos, this god had finally been found in the past thousands of years. At that time, his followers were discovered by Charlie and the others, and they were eventually suppressed.


The Eye of Chaos wanted to make a move, but in the end, he was interfered with by Chen Heng and the others and was directly disposed of. This was also to prevent the development of the land under their feet from being destroyed.


At this moment, in the Primogenitor World, other than Chen Heng, the God of Shadows, and the God of Nature, there should be no other divine existences. Perhaps there were other transmigrators, but they could no longer stir up any waves.


After all, in this world, besides Chen Heng and the two gods, Charlie and the others were also watching.


The situation was naturally different. Even if an ordinary transmigrator came to this world, there was no advantage.


“Speaking of which, it’s about time to leave…”


Standing in place, Chen Heng looked at the land under his feet and said softly. From his calculation, his time in this world was not considered short.


In this world, he could be considered to have obtained a huge harvest. It was the same in all aspects, and the harvest was considered to be huge. And now, there would no longer be any benefit to him even if he continued to stay here.


It was also time to leave. This thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind. Of course, he would not leave for the time being.


In this world, he still had some matters to settle. He would only be able to leave at ease after Chris had truly ascended to the divine level. From now on, he would only leave behind one of his avatars to be responsible for all sorts of matters in this world.


And after that, it would be the World of Gods and the Abyss World. This thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind quietly. His expression was calm as he watched the changes in the world beneath his feet.


Beneath his feet, the world began to change. Time seemed to be speeding up. Soon, four to five thousand years passed.


Chris once again ushered in a breakthrough. Under everyone’s gaze, he ascended and became a Demigod. Of course, the Demigods in this world were not called Demigods.


The term ‘Demigod’ was unique to the World of Gods. There were different titles in different systems. In this world, the Demigods of the past were known as Saint Childs.


However, the era of the primogenitors had passed. There was no meaning in naming this level Saint Childs. Therefore, as the first person to ascend to this level, Chris named this level the Sanctum, which meant that he had stepped into the divine level.


The world’s first Sanctum made the world even more passionate. For thousands of years, other than Chris, everyone had worked hard to catch up. Everyone wanted to ascend after Chris and did not dare to fall behind.


They knew that under the current circumstances, the first person to be promoted would gain a huge advantage and occupy a dominant position in the competition.


Chris had always been indifferent to everything. He didn’t care about many things. But this didn’t mean that other people would be the same. It was precise because of this that they didn’t dare to relax. They were afraid that others would surpass them.


They were working hard, trying to catch up. Soon, another Sanctum appeared. This person was Jameson. He was still the image of the old man from the past.


Of course, this was intentionally maintained by him. Otherwise, with his current strength, it would be extremely easy for him to regain his youth.


After advancing to the Sanctum, his strength had reached an unprecedented level. That powerful strength made him unable to help but exclaim in admiration, lamenting the existence of such terrifying strength in the world.


In the past, this level was already the limit of his imagination. But now, it wasn’t so, and there was still a goal ahead.


The so-called ‘Sanctum’ was only equivalent to the Saint Child of the past. In terms of combat power, it was probably far inferior.


Ahead, there was still the level called the primogenitor. In the past, no one dared to think of the primogenitor, but now it was different. After a long exploration period, people in this world were used to breaking through everything and pushing the limit.


Even people from the old era like Jameson, after breaking through again and again, also established the belief of progress, believing that he would one day be able to reach that level.


So, he continued to try. Unfortunately, after reaching the Sanctum, all attempts became extremely dangerous. After a failed experiment, Jameson’s body met with an accident. His entire body suffered a backlash and was ignited by an inextinguishable flame.


“As expected, I still failed…”


Amidst the backlash, Jameson felt somewhat unwilling. At this moment, he had already realized the crux of the problem.


The path of Bloodline Mages that he had created was a system that was comparable to any path.


This system took into account the characteristics of both bloodline power and mages. While it possessed great combat power, it could also have various buffs. It could be said to be a perfect job.


However, this job also had its flaws. It was stronger than the bloodline but also limited by the bloodline.


When a Bloodline Mage reaches the limit of the bloodline power, the bloodline power would turn around and become a burden to a certain extent. Instead, it would slow down the advancement of the mage.


This problem was not obvious in the past. The origin of the bloodline power in this world was generally the primogenitor. Perhaps because of the long-term dilution, the bloodline power in most people’s bodies had become weak, but the nature of that was still very high.


Therefore, this kind of flaw was not considered a flaw in the past. Anyway, no one could approach the ceiling. But at Jameson’s level, there was a problem.


He found that after the bloodline in his body reached this level. It could no longer help him. Not only could it not, but it even became an obstacle for him. The power hidden in this bloodline was like a shackle to him at this moment, making him unable to spread his wings and fly.


The aftereffects of the Bloodline Mage system were undoubtedly exposed at this moment. Jameson didn’t know that a normal bloodline wouldn’t cause his current situation.


The Bloodline Mage system was also widely distributed in other worlds. In the Sorcerer World, they were called Warlocks.


In the Sorcerer World, the bloodline itself wouldn’t substantially hinder Warlocks. At most, after reaching the peak of bloodline power, it wouldn’t be able to provide any assistance.


But in this world, the situation was different. The bloodline of the primogenitor itself had its limitations.


Including Jameson, the primogenitor bloodline in their bodies was essentially the product of the primogenitor’s practice of the bloodline path. The primogenitor controlled its origin.


Their bloodline was restricted, so they naturally carried shackles. Therefore, under normal circumstances, they would never be an existence on the level of the primogenitor.


This was mainly because of authority, just like Chen Heng had divided part of the authority of the Silver Moon Primogenitor after passing the Trial of Origin.


If a primogenitor descendant like Jameson could ascend to the primogenitor level, it would similarly produce a similar effect. In the end, they would be able to separate part of the authority from the primogenitor, which would have a violent impact on their Bloodline Primogenitor status.


Naturally, the primogenitor would not allow this hidden danger to appear. Therefore, from the very beginning, the bloodline seeds that the primogenitors planted were restricted.


Without one who could transcend the bloodline’s power, it was impossible to cross the restriction and become a divine existence.


Jameson only discovered this after ascending to the Demigod level. He was naturally unwilling to accept this. He had relied on his strength to reach his current position, but he was told that the road ahead had been cut off.


Any powerhouses would be unable to accept this. This problem wasn’t impossible to solve.


As long as he could be ruthless enough to strip off the primogenitor bloodline in his body and become a normal person, he would naturally be unrestricted.


However, this was an extremely difficult matter in itself. This was especially so for Jameson. Jameson was not young in the first place. In the era of the bloodline noble, he had already lived for thousands of years.


And in this new era, he had lived for tens of thousands of years. Such a long time had undoubtedly consumed a large amount of vitality. His powerful nature only replenished it.


However, if he abandoned his bloodline power and lost the powerful life provided by his bloodline, Jameson might die immediately.
