Chapter 1337 - Primordial Taboo (2)



However, Elder Chan’s reaction suggested that he was aware of the Heavens.

“So, you’ve seen them, Elder Chan? Were they the enemies that the Heaven Path Institute fought against in the war?” asked Su Ping.

Slightly dazed, Elder Chan said, “What are you talking about? This is the second time you mention something about a war. There have been a lot of wars in the world as of late; some even involve different continents. But, which war are you talking about? Also, has the Heaven Path Institute fought anyone in a war?”

Feeling surprised, Su Ping said, “You don’t know, Elder Chan? Wasn’t the Heaven Path Institute rebuilt? The director led the students to fight in the wilderness when the war took place; it was on such a grand scale that the world nearly fell apart. Is it a secret that we can’t talk about it, or do you really not know?”

Su Ping had heard about the war and the Heaven Path Institute’s deeds from Joanna. He knew that she wasn’t a liar; besides, the existence of the Demigod Burial was evidence of the war.

The Demigod Burial was almost the size of half a continent.

How could the continent have broken loose without a terrifying war?

“You…” Elder Chan was dazed for a long time. He then said, “I don’t know what you’re talking about, but I’ve truly never heard about it. Did you hear some rumors elsewhere? It’s impossible for that to have happened. The world is protected by the Ancestral Gods who in turn restrain each other. There were only three wars in the history of gods where Ancestral Gods participated.

“They would only participate if their clans ever faced the threat of extinction. The wars caused by frictions and competition for resources could only involve God Emperors at most.

“Although God Emperors are strong, they cannot tear the world apart. That’s too crazy.”

Su Ping was stunned for a moment. Judging by Elder Chan’s look, there was no reluctance to tell the truth. He truly didn’t know.

He asked, “Then, in the three wars that the Ancestral Gods took part in, did they break the world?”

“Of course not. Every clan has an Ancestral God, and they keep each other in check. They won’t fight unless it’s necessary; after all, the Ancestral Gods are too terrifying. They can truly cause irreversible damage to the world if they fight. However, only some continents were razed when the Ancestral Gods fought in those wars. In retrospect, the destruction was shocking enough.”

Elder Chan looked at Su Ping and continued, “As to the Heaven Path Institute’s participation in a war, that’s even less likely. The Institute has a superior status; nobody dares to mess with us. Of course, we won’t provoke others, either.”

Su Ping was confused.

He felt that his information didn’t add up

But he didn’t think that Joanna was lying; was her level too low and she had a misunderstanding back then?

After giving it some thought, Su Ping asked, “Then, senior, how did you know about the thing I mentioned just now? Are they stationed in our world?”

Elder Chan slightly changed his expression and glanced at Su Ping. “You’d better not know these things, unless you’re as strong as us. Even so, you must not bring them up easily!

“Even Ancestral Gods are reluctant to talk about them. You’re a Dao Child now, but I can’t reveal too much. All in all, that’s too far away into the future; you won’t be detected as long as you don’t investigate or think about them. What you need to do right now is cultivate!”

Su Ping fell silent, noticing how vigilant Elder Chan was. He didn’t ask further; after all, the Golden Crows had decided to live in seclusion to avoid the Heavens.

If the all-powerful ancestor of the Golden Crows chose to hide from the enemy, it was certainly not something he could talk about at the moment.

Even God Emperors were insignificant in front of the Heavens.

“When do you plan to go to the Ancestral God’s Mysterious Realm?” Elder Chan changed the subject, not wanting to talk about the taboo anymore.

“Let’s wait until I’m better prepared,” said Su Ping.

“All right. That’s for the best; the opportunity to enter the Ancestral God’s Mysterious Realm is rare. Considering your current situation, if you’re inspired and awaken your Dao Heart, you will directly become a God Emperor,” said Elder Chan.

Su Ping nodded. Actually, he wasn’t that eager about going to the Ancestral God’s Mysterious Realm. He had shared the Golden Crow ancestor’s experiences and seen the three unparalleled Dao Hearts. He was no longer as aimless as before in the pursuit of his Dao Heart. He would have already become a God Emperor had he taken one of the Dao Hearts from the ancestor.

However, he preferred to walk a path of his

own.

After saying goodbye to Elder Chan, he went to the library and searched through the books. He didn’t find anything related to the Heavens; he only found some rumors in the records.

The powerless, normal books made of ordinary matter won’t be detected even if they describe the Heavens? So, nothing happens to mortals even if they talk about the Heavens all the time. Only us cultivators whose words carry the power of laws will be detected. Su Ping’s eyes glittered.

All the records he found concerning the Heavens were on regular books. That was why he came with that theory.

The people in the books led ordinary lives too.

Su Ping suddenly had a dreadful speculation, Judging from Elder Chan’s reaction, the Heavens must exist in this world; the Heavenly Fire of the Red Dome Realm is the best evidence. This means that the Heavens once descended to this world and even waged a war. It’s just that the incident was buried. Joanna didn’t lie to me. So… Maybe the Heavens cut off the river of time and removed the memories of every god.

That could explain why Elder Chan’s information didn’t match his.

Having experienced the Golden Crow ancestor’s world and witnessed the pinnacle of power, Su Ping made him come to that conclusion. It wasn’t entirely impossible to cut the river of time and wipe out memories.

Someone as strong as the Golden Crow ancestor could easily do that.

In that case, further investigation is pointless. Elder Chan is right; cultivating is the most important thing to me right now.

Su Ping left the library and found Elder Chan again.

“What is it this time?” Elder Chan was surprised to see Su Ping again. He could see some traces that nobody else could see using his secret technique. The traces suggested that Su Ping had just returned from the

library.

He instantly realized that the boy was probably still looking into the taboo.

“If it’s the same matter we spoke of, don’t mention it again,” said Elder Chan solemnly.

Su Ping shook his head. “Senior, you’re overthinking. I’m here to ask how to remotely control a God King without affecting their strength and ensuring their loyalty.”

“Huh?” Stunned, Elder Chan was greatly relieved. “It’s easy to enslave one; there are at least a dozen soul control techniques on the library’s top floor. Some were created by other clans, while others were created by God Emperors of our institute. I know seven of them; I can teach you three of them, considering your conditions.”

“Thank you very much, elder,” said Su Ping quickly.

Elder Chan pointed toward Su Ping’s head, and a tremendous amount of information instantly flooded the latter’s mind, which was related to the three divine skills.

Su Ping browsed through them and found that they were exactly what he needed. The Archean Divinity was truly a prosperous cultivation site; such divine skills were usually difficult to find, but they were everywhere to be found in that world.

“Elder, do you have any skills that can kill someone remotely?” Su Ping asked again.
