Chapter 856 Ch 856: Story Of The Primordial Race (1)
Yuan Shan De waved his hand the hexagonal-shaped crystal containing the Mark Of Primordial flew out of Ye Xiao's hand and went back to Yuan Shan De's hand.
Yuan Shan De looked at it for a while and sighed. It was not only Yuan Shan De, but Yuan Shi De and Pygon also sighed as they looked at the hexagonal-shaped crystal.
This crystal, no, mainly the Mark of Primordial inside the hexagonal-shaped crystal, has a deep relation and sign of deep attachment to them. They looked very emotional about this Mark of Primordial and seemed to have lost in the river of memories as they started thinking of the past.
They seemed to be looking at the smiling face of a middle-aged man who has exactly the same Mark of Primordial on his forehead as the one contained inside the hexagonal-shaped crystal.
Everyone sighed again. Ye Xiao was puzzled but he didn't interrupt them. He could see their emotion and attachment to this Mark of Crystal. He knew if this matter is something that they can say, they will definitely tell him.
As Ye Xiao had expected, after a while, Yuan Shi De took the hexagonal-shaped crystal from Yuan Shan De, and observed it as he said: "This Mark of Primordial belongs to the leader of my Primordial Race."
This time, Ye Xiao was really surprised. If this Mark of Primordial belongs to the leader of the Primordial Race, doesn't it mean it was extracted from the leader's body using some sort of method?
It is no wonder that they have such deep feelings for this Mark of Primordial.
Yuan Shi De continued: "Do you want to hear the story of what happened in the past and how the Mark of Primordial that should be on the forehead of our leader appeared inside this crystal?"
Ye Xiao didn't hesitate and spoke: "If senior wants to tell, then I'll definitely listen. After all, I've also now become curious about this Mark of Primordial after hearing what you said just now!"
"Hahaha!" x2.
Yuan Shi De and Yuan Shan De let out a peal of feelingless laughter. They were laughing on the surface, but Ye Xiao could feel their pain and emotions.
Yuan Shi De said: "I think you should already know about the great war against the Heavens and Ancient Devils by now!"
"Yes, Queen told me everything!" Ye Xiao nodded.
"Queen, as expected!" Yuan Shan De and Yuan Shi De looked at each other, and they could see meanings in each other's eyes.
Yuan Shi De continued: "Since Queen had already told you about the great war, then the story will be short. She must have told you how the Nine Ancestral Dragons disappeared and what happened that resolved the crisis of Ancient Devils. But she shouldn't have said why my Primordial Race has disappeared, right?"
"Yes, I don't know about this!" Ye Xiao nodded again and said: "I only know that the Primordial Race were assisting the Nine Ancestral Dragons with their best abilities but because of this, the Primordial Race became the enemy of Heavens. Heavens ordered the other races such as Ancient Race to hunt down all the people and races who are supporting the Nine Ancestral Dragons and Queen. But at that time, the Nine Ancestral Dragons entered the Second Universe."
"And it was also at that time that the Ancient Devils appeared. They started wreaking havoc everywhere and became the cause of a great destruction. The Nine Ancestral Dragons couldn't sit back so they came back and started getting rid of the Ancient Devils."
"In the war against the Ancient Devils, Nine Hell Serenity Dragon played a vital role. Celestial Sword Emperor was also the one who helped greatly in the war against the Ancient Devils."
"Well, while I heard about these things I never heard what happened to the Primordial Race!"
Yuan Shi De, Yuan Shan De, and Pygon nodded their heads in understanding, This was what happened in the past.
"Actually, while the Nine Ancestral Dragons, Celestial Sword Emperor, and the countless powerful people were trying to get rid of Ancient Devils, there was one race that was after my Primordial Race the whole time."
Yuan Shan De opened his mouth to speak and emotionally exhaled out a deep breath of air. Then he continued the story. His eyes seemed to be lost in the events of the past.
"Because we went against the Will of the Heavens and choose to help the Nine Ancestral Dragon go against the Heavens in order to help the Second Universe, Heavens turn its back on us. It cursed us that caused our strength to greatly weaken. Although there were still thousands of Ancient Gods in my Primordial Race at that time, they couldn't even use the strength equal to an Exalted Ruler because of the curse."
"Heavens had ordered the Ancient Race and others to hunt us down. But because of the war against the Ancient Devils and the riot caused by them, everyone's attention was shifted. The only one that came coming after us was the Ancient Race."
"Ancient Race wanted to get rid of us no matter the price. After all, only after getting rid of us can they rule the Heavens. They were the second strongest race in the entire Heavens. On top of that, we were greatly weakened which gave them an opportunity that they took advantage of. They kept hunting us down and killed our people one by one. We went to ask for help from the Nine Ancestral Dragons, but they were busy getting rid of Ancient Devils. There were countless Ancient Devils and getting rid of all of them seemed to be impossible. So, they were busy killing as many as they could and sealing the rest of them."
"The Heavens was in riot and they were still very sentimental about Heavens, for the Heavens is the one that gave birth to them. They were the first beings ever to appear in the Heavens. Their heart still belonged to Heavens and couldn't see the Heavens in trouble. Thus, they chose the Heavens over us. But Queen did tell us not to worry. Queen is very special. No one is ever able to understand her completely."
"Queen seemed to have seen countless possibilities of future through her special pair of eyes and told us that the destruction of my Primordial Race is destined. No one can change it. It was her who told us to create trials and told us that a worthy person will appear that will revive the Primordial Race once again."
"Although she assured us, how could we accept the fact that our race's destruction is destined? There were millions of people in our Primordial Race. How could we just sit back and see ourselves being killed one by one? Thus, we asked Queen for help. If she would have helped us, she alone could have become a huge hurdle in the path of goal that Ancient Race wanted to achieve, a hurdle that they couldn't have passed no matter how hard they would have tried."
"However, Queen told us that she is helpless. Heavens doesn't want her to help them. According to the Will of Heavens, the destruction of my Primordial Race will bring a new era. In that era, the course of Heavens will return to normal and the Heavens will not shatter ever again."
"Because the Heavens shattered into three Great Realms, its source was injured and cracks appeared on the cosmic membrane protecting the Heavens. According to Heavens, many 'outsiders' had entered and Ancient Devils were one of them. The peace could only return after a great sacrifice, and that sacrifice was the destruction of my Primordial Race."
"I don't know how and why the Heavens decided this, but what Queen said really happened. After my Primordial Race was completely destroyed, the peace really returned to the Heavens and a new era was welcomed. The new era was Ancient Era, ruled by the Ancient Race."
Yuan Shan De took a deep breath and exhaled it. Then he looked into Ye Xiao's eyes, sighed, and said: "Well, coming back to the topic, because of the Heavens, Queen didn't help us. And Ancient Race kept coming after us. One by one, our people kept being killed, and very soon, only seven people were left. Among those seven people, one was our leader and including Yuan Shi De and me, there were four other elders."
"Our leader kept fighting for hundreds of years and gave us enough time to prepare many things. While our leader was fighting against the entire Ancient Race by himself while backing us and giving us enough time to make preparations, we stayed hidden. It was in those days that we experimented on a Dragon's egg and Pygon was born. We made him the Guardian of our Primordial Race."
After Pygon was born, we six had already prepared everything. We made preparation according to what Queen told us. We completed the preparation to create trials for the worthy one to appear who could revive the Primordial Race once again.
