Chapter 453: 278: Conversation and the World’s Past_3

“It’s not in human form.”

“From the mural, its main body is a huge and lifelike eye.”

“Around the eye, there are countless indescribable things, like chaos, or some oddly shaped organs.”

“Even…I can’t think of how to describe it.”

“All I remember is that when I saw that statue, I felt as if I had fallen into a black abyss.”

“Endless darkness surged into my mind like a tide, and the warmth of my body seemed to be drained away in an instant.”

“My entire consciousness began to plunge into chaos, and I felt as if my body was falling rapidly.”

“If it weren’t for someone realizing something was wrong and waking me up in time.”

“I can hardly imagine what would have happened if I continued to sink.”

Li Wuji has a frightened expression on his face.

That brief experience still remains fresh in his mind to this day.

Upon hearing this,

Chen Sheng falls into deep thought.

An exquisite and colossal divine statue.

An indescribable eyeball.

If it was created by a Heavenly Person, how could a Heavenly Person with such skill be slaughtered like pigs and dogs by the Homo sapiens?

So if it wasn’t made by the Heavenly Person,

Who could it be?

And what role did this statue play in the struggle between the Heavenly Person and the Homo sapiens?

“What happened afterward?”

Chen Sheng, eager to know the answer, presses for more.

Li Wuji doesn’t keep him in suspense.

“According to my calculations,”

“At that time, those Heavenly Person were in desperate straits as they were hunted by the Homo sapiens.”

“With nowhere to run, they began to pray to the statue in the center of the forest.”

“At that time, I also wanted to know what had really happened.”

“Unfortunately, the murals afterward had been severely damaged.”

“It seems as if someone had deliberately destroyed them.”

“Only the last few murals remain intact.”

“And the scenes in those murals haven’t changed, still set in the primordial forest.”

“Only, the roles of the hunter and the hunted have been reversed.”

“The hunted Heavenly People shed their original hair and changed into their current appearance.”

“The red diamond crystal appeared in the center of their eyebrows.”

“At the same time, these Heavenly People also possessed the Power of Authority that we are familiar with.”

“They summoned thunder, stirred up fierce winds, and killed all the Homo sapiens that were chasing them.”

“That’s the earliest record of extraordinary power in the world today.”

“It seems that it wasn’t until that time that the existence of Qi appeared in our world.”

What?

Chen Sheng’s face shows astonishment.

If what Li Wuji says is true,

Qi… was brought by the Heavenly People?

“It seems so.”

Seeing Chen Sheng’s expression, Li Wuji understands the question in his heart.

“Of course, this is deduced by later generations through various clues.”

“But it’s true indeed.”

“Before the period of the Homo sapiens hunting the Heavenly People, there were no signs of extraordinary powers in our world.”

“There were no so-called Authority Holders, nor were there those ancient fierce beasts that filled the skies and covered the ground.”

“All records of extraordinary powers happened after the Heavenly People gained power.”

After listening to Li Wuji’s story,

Chen Sheng frowns, deeply lost in thought.

Although Li Wuji’s words have cleared up many of his doubts,

such as the reason for the Heavenly People’s hatred toward humans,

and the possibility that the terrifying power of the Heavenly People is somehow related to the colossal statue,

However,

they have also brought more questions to Chen Sheng.

Who erected that statue, and why?

Why does it have such terrifying power, enough to grant primitive Heavenly People control over Authority, and even make them immortal?

From where does the power of the statue come?

Or rather… from whom does it come?

It couldn’t have so generously granted the Heavenly People power simply out of charity, right?

For a moment,

Chen Sheng feels weighed down in his heart.
