Journey to the West: I have Nine Golden Crows Inside Me-Chapter 1678 - 1089 Inverting Cause and Effect
Chapter 1678: 1089 Inverting Cause and Effect
"Since this matter involves the Chaos Demigod, it is not something for us to worry about. Ancestor, later please report this matter to Empress Nuwa so that she can discuss with the other Saints on how to handle it."
"The safety of the Prehistoric World is naturally a matter for the Saints to take charge of. Besides, I see that those Saints from beyond the skies are quite idle; that’s why they often stir up trouble without reason."
"Why not give them something to do? It would also keep them from bothering me so much."
The issue of the Chaos Demigod was undoubtedly a hot potato, and Jiang Chen had no intention of taking it on himself. Instead, he was prepared to pass it to the Saints. It wasn’t shirking; this matter was always supposed to be handled by the Saints.
After all, maintaining the stability of Heaven and Earth naturally fell within the Saints’ responsibilities. Surely, they couldn’t take so many benefits from Heaven and Earth without paying any price?
If the Prehistoric World faces turmoil, the Saints will inevitably bear the brunt.
"Hmm, letting the Saints handle these affairs is indeed the right decision. With the emergence of the Chaos Demigod, they will likely shift their focus onto it. They should have no time to trouble the Human Race."
"Ah, how fast the tides of time change. Thinking back to the Great Ancient and Primordial Era, the Saints and those Great Divine Transcendents were all guardian deities of the Human Race."
"But who could have imagined that in this day and age, most of them have stood against the Human Race, becoming the greatest obstacles on our path to rise."
Regarding the current change in circumstances, Jiang Xuan felt it even more deeply than Jiang Chen. He lived during an era when the relationship between the Human Race and the Mystic Sect was at its most harmonious.
At that time, the Mystic Sect’s Great Divine Transcendents were more than willing to extend a hand to the Human Race, teaching all kinds of Divine Abilities and Dao Laws generously to anyone willing to learn.
Back then, who could have foreseen that the Human Race and those Great Divine Transcendents would eventually come to this point, locked in a state of mutual hostility?
"I can only say, Ancestor, you were too pure-hearted, unable to see through the sinister intentions of those Great Divine Transcendents. The world always says that the Human Race’s moral corruption is what has tainted the ethos of the Prehistoric World."
"But in truth, the ones truly morally corrupt were those Great Divine Transcendents, calculating every step ahead of time. As early as the Great Ancient and Primordial Era, they had begun scheming against the Human Race."
"Who would have thought that their purpose in transmitting the Dao to the Human Race back then was to set themselves up to devour us in later generations? Their malicious intent is no less vile than that of the Demon Clan."
Jiang Chen was not born in that era, nor had he experienced the benevolence of those Great Divine Transcendents towards the Human Race. He lived in this era, and all he had witnessed was their malevolence and schemes against the Human Race.
In this situation, his heart held only hatred for those Great Divine Transcendents, no reminiscence, and certainly no pity.
"Ah, let’s not talk about this anymore. I should head to the Emperor Wa Palace and inform Empress Nuwa about the recent happenings."
Jiang Xuan didn’t wish to delve deeper into this topic with Jiang Chen; their perspectives were entirely different, leaving no room for meaningful discussion. He sighed deeply and left the place.
"Ah, it seems the influence of those Great Divine Transcendents on the Human Race is still too pervasive. Even someone as distinguished as the Ancestor feels sentimental about it—this is unacceptable. We must eliminate this influence."
"The Taoist Ancestors stated previously in the Zixiao Palace that those defeated in battle could retain their lives, but they must surrender everything they have gained. Naturally, this includes the impact of how they aided the Human Race."
"Since that’s the case, I will erase all traces of their presence in the Human Race’s history, or perhaps alter their identities and let others replace them."
Jiang Xuan’s attitude made Jiang Chen realize he had overlooked the lingering influence those Great Divine Transcendents had on the Human Race’s upper echelon.
No matter their motives, the fact that they had aided the Human Race remained undeniable. Indeed, several high-ranking figures within the Human Race had benefited from their help.
Such influence, though intangible, was undeniably real, and a single moment of negligence might lead to catastrophic consequences.
For instance, during a crucial battle, if a prominent member of the Human Race made a misguided decision and spared a Great Divine Transcendent who should have been suppressed, it could drastically alter the outcome of the war.
This kind of situation, while previously unforeseen, now that it was anticipated, could no longer be ignored.
"Since they have become enemies of the Human Race, then their past aid to the Human Race cannot leave even the slightest trace in our history."
The Innate Dao Sovereign possessed the ability to reverse cause and effect, let alone someone like Jiang Chen, whose power rivaled that of Saints.
If he intervened, he could indeed silently rewrite the entire ancient history of the Human Race, causing those who played significant roles in Human Race history to either vanish, be altered, or be replaced entirely by others.
As for the Great Divine Transcendents who were benevolent towards the Human Race, Jiang Chen would not only preserve their traces but also extol their deeds. He would enshrine their statues in the Grand Temple for generations to worship.
However, as for those who were malevolent towards the Human Race, there was no need for their presence in history. He would diminish any evidence of their existence among the Human Race—indeed, he desired that their names be erased entirely from Heaven and Earth. freewebnσvel.cøm
Boom!
An invisible wave radiated outward from Jiang Chen, spreading rapidly in all directions. In just an instant, it enveloped the entire Chaos World before extending into both the past and the future.
"What just happened?"
The sudden change alarmed Great Divine Transcendents from across ancient, present, and future timelines.
Powerhouses of the past, present, and future all activated their Divine Abilities, gazing into the River of Time and Space.
