Chapter 320 - 284: Break the Magic!
He felt it necessary to let Hongtian Great Saint and the others know about this matter, and so, he spoke of it, albeit in an indirect manner, under the guise of an invented teacher named Mr. Qian.
He claimed that his teacher, Mr. Qian, had once learned of some profound secrets related to the Tiandu Continent within the Heavenly and Myriads of Realms.
In the Ancient Era, there existed an incomparably terrifying Great Demon King who brought disaster to humanity, who later encountered an Ancient Great Power unparalleled through the ages and a profound ancient battle ensued.
Eventually, the Supreme Great Demon King was suppressed by the Ancient Great Power, the true Ancient Ancestor who founded the Tiandu Continent, buried deep beneath the earth with layers of seals imposed, attempting to use the power of time to eradicate all signs of life from the Demon King.
But over countless years, while the power of time worked to erase the Demon King, it also caused the seals to ultimately begin to crumble, leading to the overflow of Demonic Qi, which infected the Tiandu Continent and became ingrained in the very essence of beings.
Therefore, once someone left the Tiandu Continent, they would transform into demons; it’s feared that the Divine Spirits of the ancient Tiandu Continent who left have turned into demons, slain by the mighty from exotic realms.
While saying these words, Ye Chen carefully observed the expressions of several Tiandu Divine Spirits; unexpectedly, Hongtian Great Saint and the other Divine Spirits weren’t much shocked, which seemed to suggest they had prior knowledge, much to his surprise.
"Hongtian Great Saint said, "Ye Chen, my young friend, the secrets told by Mr. Qian are indeed something we have come across before. In fact, after entering the Void Sky Domain and repairing our Daoist Law’s deficiencies, we became aware of this issue—that deep within the human origin, a Demonic Order Divine Chain has indeed integrated."
They were truly exceptional beings, among the mightiest of the Tiandu Continent, able to sense the cosmos and receive messages from the cosmic origin, and sensibly aware of this.
This Demonic Order Divine Chain has taken deep root within the human origin, and with the passage of time, it will fully merge into the depths of the origin, difficult to eradicate.
If it were not for a particularly strong and mysterious force that constantly envelops this world, completely suppressing this Demonic Order Divine Chain preventing it from erupting, then every being on the Tiandu Continent would thoroughly transform into demons.
Ye Chen inquired, "If so, how did the seniors cope with this? Please forgive my blunt words, but across the ages, once the Holy Realm Gods who left the Tiandu Continent traversed the Space Storm, they no longer had the Ancient Great Power’s seals to protect them, and the Demonic Order Divine Chains in their origins would revive, completely contaminating the source and transforming into demons."
