It was said that Messiah left no trace of his presence. After all, he was rumored to have fallen ten thousand years ago, so his sudden resurrection and emergence this time caught everyone by surprise.
They had also searched for the path he took after breaking out, but he left no trace. This clearly indicated extraordinary methods, typical of a Saint who had prepared well in advance.
"What could he have done to be wanted by all the forces of the Heavens?" someone wondered. "To provoke such widespread anger, could he have betrayed humanity?" A remarkably shrewd Saint had already speculated on some possibilities.
After all, with the front lines under severe pressure, the threat from the Natural Dao's faction was growing.
"Betraying humanity... that is indeed a plausible reason."
A Saint chuckled, "But the previous traitor, Xu Fan, became a public enemy of humanity and even a Dao Godfather, yet he didn't generate such a massive uproar. Moreover, there have been spies and traitors from our human bloodlines before! Why is this individual being pursued with such intensity?"
Everyone exchanged glances.
Given their intelligence, they naturally inferred the reason.
Such an extensive mobilization of forces suggested that "Messiah" had not only betrayed the Human Dao faction but also possessed extremely vital secrets of the Cosmic Dao, posing an immense threat.
Indeed, if he truly escaped, the resulting harm could lead to the extinction of the "Human Dao faction" and an imminent, colossal crisis.
That was why he was being so relentlessly pursued.
At this moment, they were also filled with anticipation, eager to find him.
What exactly were these secrets he possessed?
Most likely, they concerned prophecies of the ancient "Chaos Cosmic Rain" and other similar secrets!
Or even a power great enough to destroy the human faction!
It was for this very reason that countless Saints and the Dao Wills of various Heavens from across the universe converged, each harboring their own peculiar intentions.
The major civilizations of the Heavens that had seized this initial opportunity were now incredibly enviable. They had once been mere pitifully small Chaos Sky civilizations, but now they had skyrocketed?
How could one not resent this?!
Even now, the secrets held by these civilizations were coveted by countless beings. With an opportunity to access them, no one would give up.
Some Saints and talented prodigies believed that while the individual had seized the initiative, it couldn't last forever. At best, they would dominate for an era and merely pave a path.
After all, throughout history, no entity had ever achieved eternity.
Even with an initial advantage, it would eventually be overthrown by more powerful successors as the era matured.
Moreover, this process might not even take ten thousand years before they were unseated by stronger indigenous forces of the Heavens.
"However, speaking of the Natural Dao faction, they are indeed troublesome,"
A Saint murmured, "Ancient Saints have deduced a glimpse of the future. We humans, in the era of the Chaos Sea, might already be a discarded species... Though we struggle, the outlook is not optimistic. It's hard for us to defeat the Natural Dao, as we are essentially interlopers, while they are the true inheritors."
There were too many prodigies in the era of Saints.
Although they didn't know this was a simulated grand trend of the Chaos Sea, they still knew humanity's end was near, possibly as an ancient species destined for extinction.
A strong sense of melancholy welled up within them.
At this time, the entire Nine-Yuan Universe was united like never before. The intense pressure from external enemies had almost entirely eliminated internal strife.
Suddenly.
All the Saints felt a jolt in their minds.
All the Heavens beneath their feet, the myriad universes, trembled slightly, as if in fear of some dreadful natural predator, a tremor that defied description.
It was as if an ultimate cosmic being at the apex of the food chain, a complete and perfect universe, was looking down upon them, these pitiful, incomplete "lambs of the Heavens."
The distant chaotic lands trembled softly.
All the Heavens began to tremble violently.
In Fengdu's Natural Immortal Realm, all the Human Dao Wills, masters of their respective universal rules, stared blankly upwards.
"What is that?"
Someone couldn't help but cry out.
All individual Saints and Dao Wills were stunned.
Many Saints who had been chatting, discussing how to develop the Dao Wills of their own universes, suddenly fell silent.
All living beings stared blankly at the primordial sight in the distant sky.
It was an unimaginably vast phantom.
It blotted out the sky, like a mirage, like a rainbow—a natural cosmic anomaly slowly coalescing with the great winds.
Was the wind rising?
They felt a powerful repulsive force from within it, similar to the strong repulsion they felt from the great universe beneath their feet.
It was as if the entity was Nature itself.
Encompassing everything, utterly inclusive, it evoked an astounding and incredible sense of it encompassing all their matter and energy.
"That's... that's... what... has descended?"
From somewhere in the crowd, a bewildered, fragmented voice drifted.
Faced with such an inconceivable cosmic phenomenon, their worldview was somewhat overturned.
Within the vast expanse of the Heavens, countless Saints couldn't help but gaze out. From a distance, they couldn't resist striding quickly towards it, driven by an inner panic.
A perceptive Dao Will emitted an extremely solemn voice, its deep resonance spreading throughout the entire universe it encompassed, informing all the Saints within it: "A variable! A variable never before seen, it gives me a sense of facing the entire universe's vastness.... Never before has such a thing occurred. If there has been any recent variable..."
That Dao Will gazed into the distance, murmuring:
"This phenomenon is likely related to Messiah, who escaped not long ago!"
"Who exactly is this individual...?"
"What terrifying secrets does he possess?"
"Go, hurry there."
In another corner, the Immortality Saints were also stunned.
A branch of the Mother River hung in the sky, swaying like an umbrella-shaped transparent jellyfish in the heavens.
Below the jellyfish's tendrils, it was connected to the docking bay of a cosmic Daoist temple, absorbing power, ready to depart at any moment.
Rong Cheng stared blankly, knowing more than the other Immortality Saints. He suddenly murmured, "This aura, there's no mistaking it.... It's extremely similar to the 'God of Destruction' from back then, yet it gives a completely different feeling... Could it be the leader of another Cosmic Chaos Rain?"
"How can there be another cosmic leader? What other secrets are hidden in that ancient prehistoric prophecy?" He was already somewhat bewildered.
In a certain area of the Underworld.
Zhi Ji also clutched the Emperor's hand tightly, asking, "What exactly did the escaped, wanted entity named Messiah take with him? Or rather, what does he know?"
If he hadn't been wanted and this change hadn't occurred, she didn't know how long she would have remained in the dark.
Perhaps this turn of events would allow her to uncover a corner of truly mysterious and ancient history, revealing some ultimate secrets.
Her breathing was somewhat rapid; excitement, nervousness, and various emotions were mixed together.
She felt herself become younger.
Indeed, she had previously been consumed by endless killing, slaughtering and suppressing era after era. Now, with a new way of life, her long-dormant heart felt re-energized.
But the Emperor shook his head, saying, "This is a deeper secret, difficult to comprehend. Knowing it now offers no advantage; you will understand in the future."
"Your Majesty, Emperor," the Great Octopus and a few players approached, feeling somewhat nervous. They knew what that aura was.
They had never expected it.
Just as Qiu Mingshan Che Su had finished analyzing the past clash of ideas and was still speculating about Messiah's actions, the situation suddenly erupted, causing such a massive upheaval.
It was completely unexpected.
The Emperor also fell silent for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Even His Majesty, the Ultra-Ancient God, likely did not foresee this. The contingency plan he left behind has actually seized our deepest origin."
The players fell silent.
Zhi Ji, however, was stunned, lowering her head and thinking deeply...
"What is this 'origin'?" she wondered. "It seems extremely important. Is it the fundamental basis of the original civilization?"
Suddenly, a great commotion.
Everything was in a state of flux.
"Fengdu, in the distance, has already sensed the aura and is on its way," Hela said anxiously.
"There's no use rushing,"
Messiah, the Sovereign Emperor, maintained a calm expression. Standing on the vast land, he gazed at the sky, which soared into the clouds.
His towering figure was as if he had encountered an ancient divine dragon capable of granting wishes.
Everything was a fair exchange.
"Alas," he mused, "it is still a conceptual existence in the ethereal realm—utterly fair and selfless, without a will of its own, incapable even of resistance. But it is inherently the Dao Unity, a convergence of all living beings' thoughts... the embodiment of rules... Naturally, if the universe were selfish and developed a self, that would be the worst outcome."
Messiah sighed, looking at the Creator God in the sky, and softly said, "It's been many years. I wish to reclaim the authority I temporarily entrusted to you back then."
The Creator God's cold eyes slowly looked down upon the three individuals before them.
Among these colossal natural creations, faint, slender bacteria could be discerned, moving back and forth like diligent bees.
A Saint suddenly looked into the distance and remarked, "It's just nearby! That Daoist temple has a golden fishing ground nearby, where fishing used to be done, the origin of this civilization.... I heard that the wanted Messiah also came from within that Daoist temple."
At the edge of the Underworld Cycle Heavens, lay the port of Fengdu.
Consequently, the number of "Heavens" within this Fengdu port area had recently increased, with many myriad realms drawing near, hoping to search for the individual's traces.
Quite a few Saints had come here to search.
Unfortunately, after searching around, there was still no sign of him.
The Era of Myriad Realms.
One could say it was composed of countless ultra-small universes.
But how could they search when they didn't even have Messiah's aura?
They only had his portrait and appearance.
These were the easiest to alter, so relying on his face to find him was completely unreliable.
Universes with completely independent rules.
"How could it be that simple?" a Saint scoffed, joining the casual conversation. "The Chaos Land is simply too vast. If he's deliberately hiding and we don't have his aura, it's like searching for a needle in a haystack! Even if he appeared before our very eyes, hidden among us, chatting with us, we might not even realize it."
It wasn't that the Saints' search methods were ineffective.
It was a place of extensive connections.
Guests from countless Heavens gathered here to exchange information, trade goods, or secretly form alliances and establish Heavenly sects.
This place occupied a strategically advantageous position in the most prosperous area, making it arguably the most central hub in the entire universe.
Just among the Myriad Heavens standing here, over ten thousand Heavens were permanently settled. Every Heavenly force had spies and intelligence networks stationed here.
It could truly be called a verdant wonderland.
It had been causing quite a stir recently.
It was somewhat similar to previous small-space gods and enlightened beings, each ruling a patch of sub-spatial civilized land.
But this was no longer a sub-space, no longer a small world—it was a universe!
Grasslands, mountains, rivers, roaming beasts, and towering emerald trees.
