I’m A Wasteland Giant C.221: 220: The Secret of the Ancient God’s Curse! (Please Subscribe!)

God Spirit level powerhouses are not merely in the eighteen major families; many are also from normal families, or from other advanced cosmic nations.

If one were to take a careful count, one would find that the God Spirit level powerhouses here have already exceeded a hundred.

“Shhh!”

At this moment, the temple world began to collapse and a force that could destroy the heavens and earth spread out.

“What’s happening—is the temple going to be destroyed?!”

The hundred-odd God Spirit level powerhouses are all terrified, especially those whose family members have entered the temple, leaving them wracked with anxiety.

“What can we do—our family’s disciples are still inside…”

One of the God Spirits is somewhat anxious; his son is still inside the temple. He quickly lifts off, stretching out his hands as if he wants to tear the space apart and go in to check the situation.

“Are you seeking death?!”

Just as he was about to act, a colleague pulled him back.

“This is a temple, and even a True God, let alone you and me, can’t possibly break in!”

Right, it is not only impossible to break in, but it is also possible to lose one’s life in the attempt!

This God Spirit looks sorrowful, “My son, you must make it out alive…”

At this moment, space abruptly splits open, and nineteen figures gradually emerge.

“They are out!”

People exclaimed, but, shortly after, they realized that only nineteen people had come out, causing them to feel dismayed.

“Why are only this many people out?!”

Some people can’t believe it. There were hundreds, if not a thousand, who entered the temple. Although most of them were guards, they were also top-level powerhouses at the Sector Lord level.

Many of them were of their own families. At this moment, had they all remained inside?!

“Swish!”

Virtually instantly, the nineteen people landed.

At this moment, people were shocked to discover that, out of these nineteen people, eighteen had all achieved the God Spirit Level.

“They…”

Among them, everyone is very familiar with one. It’s the Ancient God, Du Gang. The other eighteen people are from various families, and all of them, without exception, are God Spirit level powerhouses!

At this moment, everyone was more shocked by this scene than if they had received news of the deaths of their family’s disciples.

Eighteen God Spirit Level powerhouses!

This seems like a dream. Under normal circumstances, a God Spirit level powerhouse might only appear every hundred thousand, or even millions, of years.

During the Golden Age, only a hundred or so God Spirit powerhouses were born, and yet they were born one after another. But now, eighteen God Spirit powerhouses emerged at once!

“When they went in, they were all at the Sector Lord level!”

They were at the Sector Lord level when they entered, and they had achieved the God Spirit level when they came out!

“It’s the Supreme Pangu!”

At this moment, someone started to piece it together and affirmed, “This temple was transformed by the Supreme Pangu’s Divine Thought. Their breakthrough must certainly be the display of Supreme Pangu’s power!”

Upon hearing these words, the eighteen people looked at each other and nodded in agreement, thereby admitting to this.

So, it was really the case!

Without waiting for everyone to step forward to ask about the situation, the God Spirit, whose direct family member was inside the temple, quickly came forward, asking anxiously, “Where is my son, where is my son? Have you seen my son?!”

Du Gang let out a light smile, and with a wave of his hand, several hundred people appeared instantly.

These hundreds of people were not caught by him, but when the temple world was about to be destroyed, he brought all the guards scattered inside the temple and some lost geniuses with him.

“Is your son here?!”

The God Spirit level powerhouse hurriedly looked over, and quickly found his son among them. Gratefully, he replied, “Thank you…”

And with that, he was about to embrace his son.

However, he noticed that his son and the others who came out together were all staring at Du Gang with faces full of horror.

It was evident that, when these hundreds of people were drilling into the inner world, they had seen both the Little Hawk King and others, as well as that fragment of a broken universe.

At this moment, all of them were so stunned that they couldn’t speak.

“What’s wrong?!”

Someone noticed their odd behavior and raised a question.

At this time, Du Gang laughed a little and started to list their family names directly.

“Dragon Family, Ying Family, Yin Family…”

Soon, he listed the family names of all nineteen captives inside him.

“What’s up?”

The God Spirits belonging to the mentioned families were all wearing puzzled expressions as they looked at him.

Du Gang chuckled and said, “The Young Masters of your families owe me quite a lot of money. Some even owe me a life. Let’s discuss how to repay, shall we?”

“Hmm?!”

Everyone was puzzled and looked at him with confusion.

Du Gang waved his hand and immediately projected the video edit that had been prepared by Bala La.

“Puff!”

In the video, the first thing to appear was a situation where a boy on the Heaven Ascending Steps was severely injured, coughing up blood, and flying outward.

At the moment he fell unconscious and was on his last breath, Du Gang appeared and took him into his own inner world.

This time, he edited the sequence a bit, placing all those injured boys at the beginning.

Upon seeing this scene, an elder stepped forward.

“This young man is indeed from my Yin Family…”

He pondered for a while, then nodded and said, “I stand here on behalf of the Yin Family, thanking Ancient God Du Gang.”

“Just verbal gratitude won’t do, I like practical benefits more!”

“Please rest assured on this, we will give you a surprise that you will certainly find satisfying!”

“Surprise?!”

Du Gang smiled, “What kind of surprise?”

The elder was stunned, then laughed heartily: “I assure you, it will be a surprise that you will be very satisfied with…”

Du Gang sneered and lightly asked, “Can anyone translate for me what a surprise means?”

This old coot clearly wants to fool him.

At this time, an elder from the Yu Family stood up.

“Let’s put the surprise from the Yin Family aside for now, Du Gang, is my Yu Family’s Yu Shuiyao in your hands?”

Du Gang nodded his head, smiling as he displayed the video of him saving Yu Shuiyao.

“Watch for yourself, a single Immortal Mushroom!”

Of course, he was not foolish enough to play the part of the video where Yu Shuiyao spoke afterward. He only showed him feeding her the mushroom.

The elder of the Yu Family immediately expressed gratitude: “Thank you for saving her life…”

Du Gang laughed, “You don’t know how bloody the scene was then. There were around forty to fifty people. Except for these eighteen who advanced, I only managed to save nineteen. The rest, all perished!”

The crowd looked at the recently advanced eighteen God Spirit Level beings and fell into silence.

In the end, it was an older individual who stood up and said, “Life and death are fated, it can’t be blamed on others. In the Conflict of the Great Dao, there are always casualties.”

With that, they brushed off the issue.

What else could they do? All eighteen who broke through to the God Spirit Level were from their respective families or clans. Could they hold them accountable?

However, Du Gang ignored these and asked directly: “Elder, tell me how much does this life-saving Immortal Mushroom cost?!”

“This mushroom was exchanged with me for an opportunity to become a god, by the princess of the Taisui Family!”

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned their gazes towards the newly promoted little princess from the Taisui family.

The little princess, aware that Du Gang was trying to make a monetary exchange, didn’t say anything and just nodded with a smile, “It was indeed exchanged with him. As a matter of fact, I was the one who profited from this!”

After all, she didn’t experience the fights in the dark world like the others, so she was very lucky to have broken through to the God Spirit Level.

Upon hearing her words, everyone was shocked.

An opportunity to become a god?

Do such things really exist?!

Du Gang continued, “Not only that, but all eighteen of them also said that they owe me a favor and will surely come when I call upon them during difficulties!”

He didn’t care about keeping things under wraps. Such things were meant to be announced.

As expected, everyone present was astonished. Those who had thoughts of targeting Du Gang also held back.

“Elder, what do you think?!”

Du Gang looked at him with a sly grin.

The elder from the Yu Family thought for a moment, then said: “For this, why don’t you name your price, young friend Du?”

Du Gang didn’t drive too hard a bargain, after all, Yu Shuiyao was the one he had knocked unconscious. If he didn’t let her go, his scheme would be revealed.

Thus, he stated his pre-determined goal: “Two million Saint Crystals, which includes both the cost of saving her and the Immortal Mushroom!”

Two million Saint Crystals!

Everyone present took a sharp breath in.

The amount was indeed massive; it was so big that they all thought Du Gang was biting off more than he could chew. However, Du Gang was the one who saved a life and provided the life-saving Immortal Mushroom, which really had quite a high value.

The elder from the Yu family frowned, quickly contacting the master of their family.

After a short while, he nodded: “We can do it. Two million Saint Crystals, our family’s master has agreed!”

How prompt!

Du Gang was overjoyed, “Great, tell your Yu Family to quickly bring the money over, we’ll complete the exchange: the money for the person!”

What a thing to say!

Those present felt it was somewhat strange. But considering Du Gang was from the countryside, they didn’t think much of it.

Next, he turned to Yao Zixuan, laughing, “Beautiful lady, I saved your little brother too. What do you say?!”

Yao Zixuan replied with a smile, “The same price as Yu Shuiyao’s, how about two million Saint Crystals?!”

She made a decision outright, ignoring the Elder of Yao Family’s opinion.

And the Elder of Yao Family didn’t have any objections after hearing this.

This shows that this woman is not to be underestimated, either!

Du Gang admired this, laughing, “Well said, next family!”

Soon, he had approached all the families once.

But when it came to the Dragon Family, their elder frowned, “Aotian is very powerful; I doubt he was knocked down by others…”

Du Gang laughed, and turned to look at the nine people who had advanced in the world of eternal darkness, “Did you hear that? He thinks you nine are not as good as Long Aotian!”

Even though they knew Du Gang was trying to agitate them, these nine released their own aura and aimed it at the Dragon family elder.

When targeted by the auras of nine God Spirit Level beings, even the Dragon family elder faltered. If it were anyone else, he might have angrily rebuked them, but considering the status of these nine, he had to apologize profusely for his misstatement.

However, Du Gang did not make it difficult for him, laughing and showing them the video of Long Aotian.

This time, he only showed the part where Long Aotian encountered the black God Spirit Level creature near the end.

He also showed how he picked up Long Aotian and desperately descended at high speed.

Of course, when he ran away, he used the first-person perspective so nobody could tell he was as small as dust.

“There really is…”

Everyone was shocked, “There’s a God Spirit Level monster inside…”

Seeing this, the Dragon family elder finally stopped hesitating and accepted Du Gang’s asking price.

So far, the business worth nearly forty million Saint Crystals for nineteen people was finally settled.

And these families had already prepared the Saint Crystals.

Although the Saint Crystals were precious, for these eighteen major families, a mere two million was not a big deal.

Inside Du Gang’s inner world.

“If you go out to trouble me, having so many families united, I doubt I would stand a chance. So, how about we just don’t mention that you were here with me…”

Du Gang’s face changed, ominously saying, “Money can be made again, but if you lose your life, then everything is gone…”

“I think it’s not very safe, I thought about it, it’s better to silence you all!!”

“What?!”

Nineteen people in the field indeed had thoughts of taking revenge once they were out, but after hearing this, all of them got shocked.

“No, Du Gang, we will definitely keep our mouths shut!”

“Right, two million Saint Crystals, nineteen people, that’s almost thirty-nine million Saint Crystals, enough for you to spend your whole life!”

“Yeah, Du Gang, there’s no need for this…”

Everyone started discussing in a flustered manner.

Long Aotian was feeling complicated as well. Initially, he was resolved, preferring death over captivity.

But after spending these days in confinement, seeing the miserable state of others, he had also calmed down.

He was ready to face anything, but now Du Gang said he didn’t want to play anymore, he wanted to cancel the deal!

Du Gang adopted an indecisive look, “Well, it wouldn’t work. You all have powerful backgrounds, backed up by powerful figures. I can’t handle it…”

“No, Du Gang, I can swear!”

“I can also swear, the most poisonous vow!”

Now everyone was persuading Du Gang, afraid that he would cancel the deal.

Du Gang hesitated, then finally said,

“How about this, each of you gives me a handle on them, in case anyone’s family bothers me in the future, then I will publicize your secrets… Otherwise I won’t release anyone!”

“What?”

Everyone was silent.

No one was willing to divulge their secrets.

Seeing this, Du Gang shook his head, “Forget it, it’s less hassle if I just cancel the transaction…”

“No, no!”

Everyone was startled and hastily agreed.

“We’ll tell you, one secret each, but separately, only you will know…”

Heh heh!

Du Gang chuckled silently, quickly nodded, and said seriously, “Don’t worry, once I have the leverage, I won’t blab about it!”

Quickly, he separated the nineteen people and began to question them individually.

Long Aotian: “I slept with one of my father’s concubines!”

“Badass!”

Du Gang looked at him in astonishment, unspeakable admiration in his eyes.

However, Long Aotian gave an embarrassed laugh and said, “We Dragon Family are naturally open. Each generation has a harem, my father had too many concubines to use…”

Legend says dragons are lascivious, and it appears to be true.

Du Gang nodded, “Nice, you’re really cooperative. I’ll take this leverage!”

Indeed, Long Aotian was the most cooperative among these people. Believe it or not, some people brought up things like bed-wetting as their leverage. Does that even count as a compromising secret?!

There were clearly only nineteen people, but they were so adept at evading the key points. Du Gang spent quite a while finally getting satisfying leverage from eighteen of them.

Only Yu Shuiyao, stubborn as a mule, did not disclose any secret. Or rather, she said something that Du Gang didn’t see fit.

“What exactly do you want for you to let me go?!”

Yu Shuiyao was very depressed. She had already disclosed many of her secrets, but Du Gang just didn’t agree.

Du Gang was also quite helpless. He was still outside negotiating with people, and the process was almost done, but Yu Shuiyao here was not cooperating.

If this woman didn’t cooperate, when they went out, if one person let on, their ruse would be exposed.

“No, the leverage you provide, must be something that has the capability of utterly ruining your reputation!”

Du Gang dissatisfiedly said, “Stop mentioning things like ‘I’m a virgin’, what’s wrong with being a virgin? I’m one too!”

Yu Shuiyao blushed again. After pondering for a while, she finally said, “I have a yin yang fish patterned birthmark in green and purple around my waist…”

“Does that count as leverage?” Du Gang was somewhat dissatisfied, “Don’t stall, hurry up. If not, give me one of your private items…”

“What?!” Yu Shuiyao looked alarmed, “What are you trying to do?!”

At this point, Du Gang suddenly remembered a novel he had read during school, where the male lead had a similar storyline.

Perhaps?

“Cough, let’s forget about it!”

After thinking for a moment, Du Gang still gave up. After all, reality is not a novel. If he really did that, he might cause more trouble.

“Where are the people, let the people out first…”

An elder from the Yin family said cautiously.

Du Gang laughed, “What, you have all eighteen families’ people here, are you still worried that I’ll keep the money and not release the people?!”

“Aside from other things, if I don’t release them, would you let me go?!”

Meanwhile, in his inner world, he had already successfully negotiated with everyone.

Including Yu Shuiyao, who finally gave a leverage that satisfied Du Gang.

“You guys give me the money first…”

Soon, Du Gang had collected a total of thirty-eight million saint crystals.

“Sweep! Sweep! Sweep!”

Nineteen figures appeared.

“Shuiyao, are you okay?!”

An old woman from Yu Family hastily went forward to check her condition.

“I’m okay…”

Yu Shuiyao said, trying to seem calm.

Elders from other families also did the same, asking their young family members about their situations.

But without exception, they all said the same thing, Du Gang had rescued them.

This was quite odd, everyone was looking at Du Gang strangely.

This guy, didn’t do anything after going in, just doing good deeds?!

The opportunity for eighteen people to become gods was related to him, even the eighteen people mentioned that if there’s trouble, they will definitely assist.

Among these people was Jiang Wenxing, who was obviously not friendly with Du Gang!

But that’s not all. Who would have known that he actually voluntarily went to rescue nineteen people.

Weirdo!

Probably he indeed likes to do good deeds!

Not understanding his thinking, everyone could only label Du Gang as a ‘good person’.

Each of the families and clans, respectively, took their own descendants away from there.

They were eager to find out what had happened inside.

“Du Gang, if there’s anything, just call me, I’ll be there!”

Dugu Hong said again as he was leaving.

“Definitely!” Du Gang responded with a smile to this seemingly trustworthy person.

The others, those who were willing to foster good relations with Du Gang, also left after bidding him goodbye.

But for people like Jiang Wenxing, he simply shot Du Gang a couple of dispassionate glances before leaving in silence.

Soon, most families departed with their younger generations.

Only the God Spirit Level elites from the Yao Family and Kong Family remained.

“Sister, aren’t you leaving?”

At this moment, Du Gang felt like a demon to Yao Zijie, who just wanted to get away from him as soon as possible.

However, Yao Zixuan spoke calmly: “I have something to discuss with Brother Du. You go back first!”

“Huh?”

Yao Zijie was surprised, “What are you guys talking about?”

Du Gang replied cheerfully: “Brother Yao, let’s just mind our own business. You can just call me your brother-in-law!”

What shocked Yao Zijie was that Yao Zixuan, who was usually very domineering, didn’t get angry or refute but smiled lightly: “Do you want to be my man? It’s not impossible. Just meet a few conditions… ”

Hearing this, Yao Zijie didn’t want to listen anymore, he left in a daze, along with the elders of the Yao Family.

In his mind, the word ‘brother-in-law’ kept echoing.

He even imagined, “Little brother, come to your brother-in-law’s room, I have something to talk to you…”

He couldn’t help but shiver at the thought and quickened his pace to leave.

After they left, Yao Zixuan smiled: “Let’s go, find a quiet place to chat!”

Du Gang laughed: “Okay, let’s go to my place, there’s nobody there!”

“Your place is out of the question, I’m still an unmarried lady. If I just go into a man’s house like this, I’ll never get married!”

Yao Zixuan quickly brought Du Gang to a deserted island outside the starry sky, similar to where they held the Opening Resources Conference last time.

The chirping of birds and the fragrance of flowers were refreshing, making their moods more pleasant.

The two sat opposite each other at a stone table. Yao Zixuan poured two cups of tea.

Du Gang, however, stopped joking around and asked solemnly: “Did you ask me here to talk about the things you didn’t mention in the temple?”

He clearly remembered that many people, including Yao Zixuan, had given him various defensive items as if he would definitely need them.

This implies that he might face danger soon, which is why they had done so.

Yao Zixuan nodded, “Exactly, I wanted to tell you more about what we didn’t finish talking about last time.”

Seeing Du Gang sitting seriously, she stopped teasing him.

She detailed everything related to Du Gang.

“Du Gang, do you think the previous Ancient Gods were killed by the Jiang Family?”

“Huh?”

Du Gang was startled. He didn’t expect Yao Zixuan to bring this up.

He frowned: “Weren’t they?”

From Yao Zixuan’s tone, he realized that there were hidden facts about the death of the Ancient Gods!

Yao Zixuan nodded, “No!”

She affirmed: “The Jiang Family didn’t actually kill any Ancient Gods…”

She laughed: “Even if they had the guts, they wouldn’t dare to do that.”

If it were before, Du Gang might not understand. But after learning that this universe was created by the Supreme Pangu, he began to comprehend.

He asked seriously, “If it wasn’t the Jiang Family, then who was it?”

Yao Zixuan continued: “The conflict between the Jiang Family and your Ancient Gods should have arisen because an Elder of the Jiang Family wanted to seize power, which led to persecution… ”

“However, they were not specifically targeting all of you afterward…”

“Not specifically targeting us?”

Du Gang was confused, “I heard that…”

Yao Zixuan interrupted with a laugh: “Heard that the Jiang Family killed many of your Ancient Gods?”

“That was spread by the Jiang Family themselves!”

“Huh?”

Du Gang was puzzled. Why would they spread such news themselves?

Yao Zixuan chuckled: “Ordinary people may not understand why they did that, but I do. I study the Law of Cause and Effect and am fully aware of the horror it can bring… ”

“The reason the Jiang Family did this was to force you to grow and simultaneously get rid of their debt to the Ancient Gods under the Law of Cause and Effect… ”

She asked him, “Don’t you find it childish how the Jiang Family acted? If they really considered you as an enemy, their elder has King-Level strength. If they really wanted to kill you, do you think Kong Family could stop them?”

“The Elder of the Kong Family can’t always be by your side…”

“Think about it, how easy is it for a king-level strongman to assassinate a sector lord?!”

Du Gang’s eyebrows were tightly furrowed, enemy or not enemy?

What does that mean?!

Yao Zixuan continued: “To my knowledge, both the Jiang Family and the Kong Family are actually trying to understand their relationship and cause and effect with your Ancient God clan!”

“Both families are indebted to your Ancient God clan, this kind of cause and effect, if not repaid, will lead to a catastrophe in the future!”

Du Gang somewhat understood, “You mean, one family bears grudge against me, one family protects me, and in the end, they will both pay back the cause and effect with my Ancient God?”

Yao Zixuan laughed: “Not exactly, it’s quite complex. If they want to fully repay the cause and effect, it also depends on the situation. Merely doing as they are now definitely won’t work, so, they need to wait…”

“They need your strength to become stronger, and you need to reach a certain level. At least, you need to be able to lift the eternal curse!”

The curse!

Du Gang’s pupils contracted sharply.

The topic of the curse had come up again. The most common thing he had heard related to the Ancient Gods was the curse.

According to the rumors, this terrifying curse had brought down his Ancient God clan from the ten strongest clans of the Primordial Continent, leaving only him.

Yao Zixuan continued: “You may not know that, before you, about ten generations of Ancient Gods all died from the curse, or rather, they all died at the checkpoint of advancing to the eternity!”

“Advancing to Eternity?”

Du Gang frowned, “We shouldn’t have any bottleneck in advancing to Eternity!”

Yao Zixuan laughed: “If it were before, there wouldn’t have been!”

“However, many years ago, problems arose in your Ancient God clan’s inheritance. All Ancient Gods advancing to Eternity encounter a heavenly tribulation. Legend says that heavenly soldiers and generals will descend and stop you from becoming a Taoist.”

“Heavenly soldiers and generals?!”

Du Gang was shocked, “What is that?!”

If he had not stepped on the path of cultivation, hearing about heavenly soldiers and generals might not have been so surprising.

But the problem was, he was already at the sector lord level, just one step away from eternity, how could he possibly believe in the existence of gods in the sky.

Yao Zixuan shook her head, “I don’t know, heavenly soldiers and generals is what everyone refers to them as!”

“Before your Ancient Gods faced the heavenly tribulation, there was no mention of heavenly soldiers and generals!”

“Whew~~!”

Du Gang took a deep breath, digested some of the shocking news, and then asked, “What is the specific situation?!”

Seeing that he had adjusted a bit, Yao Zixuan finally began, “When you Ancient Gods advance from sector lord level to eternal level, you will encounter a heavenly tribulation. A visible disaster will emerge between heaven and earth…”

“Specifically, it’s Nine Tribulations, the first eight tribulations are attacks of eight different laws — metal, wood, water, fire, earth, thunder, wind, and light and darkness…”

“All of these were crossed by the previous Ancient Gods, but they often fell on the ninth tribulation!”

As if falling into a memory, she wanted to present to Du Gang what she had seen in the ancient lessons in a visual way,

“The ninth tribulation will produce humanoid creatures from the tribulation clouds. They are unfeeling, without compassion, numerous, and wearing golden armor, like heavenly soldiers and generals…”

Du Gang frowned: “Didn’t you catch a heavenly soldier and general to have a look?!”

The previous Ancient Gods crossed the Eternity Tribulation, which means the level wasn’t too high. According to humans having True God-level strongmen, and having Great Power-level strongmen and King-Level fighters, capturing one of these heavenly soldiers and generals should be no problem.

“No way!”

Yao Zixuan shook her head and sighed: “A long time ago, an unusual sage went to see, but finally left, at a loss…”

“What do you mean?”

Du Gang asked with a frown: “Could it be that these heavenly soldiers and generals are as powerful as saints?”

“No!”

Yao Zixuan sighed: “Those heavenly soldiers and generals are formed by karma and no one can solve them. The only ones who can truly get through are you guys.”

As if she knew that Du Gang was hearing the word “karma” for the first time, she explained: “Karma was brought up by that sage. It’s a very terrifying power. No matter who it is, once they are contaminated with karma, they will encounter great terror. The total loss of their cultivation is a small matter, but if they are a little careless, they will be completely annihilated and never recover.”

She continued: “Once, a king tried to help a certain generation of Ancient God to forcefully cross the ninth tribulation, but in the end, they both vanished into thin air.” 𝒻𝓻𝘦𝑒𝓌𝑒𝓫𝓷𝑜𝓋𝘦𝓵.𝓬𝘰𝓂

Du Gang was shocked.

He hadn’t thought that the Ancient Gods could have such secret issues.

He was silent, Kong Family had never told him about these things, and Jiang Family would be even less likely to tell him.

After a while, he looked at Yao Zixuan with complex emotions, “Why are you telling me all this?!”

Yao Zixuan smiled: “The Jiang Family and Kong Family, because they have a cause and effect relationship with your Ancient God, they can’t escape, they must be involved…”

“While the other sixteen families, including us, are detached from this, and we take a neutral attitude towards you, neither enemy nor friend, and let nature take its course!”

Du Gang understood that this was her own opinion. He squinted his eyes and said, “So what do you mean?!”

Yao Zixuan laughed: “What the elder of my Yao Family is most known for is his Gentleman’s Sword, but actually, the elder of my Yao Family is most skilled in the art of divination and the understanding of the Law of Cause and Effect…”

“Unfortunately, there are so many descendants of the Yao Family, but no one can comprehend the elder’s true meaning. Even the entry level of the basic art of divination is very few…”

“I’m lucky. I passed through all the challenges, studied all the basic preconditions needed to learn the Law of Cause and Effect, and integrated them…”

“I’ve come into contact with some Law of Cause and Effect matters, so I could see further…”

She said with a playful smile, “Our elder ancestor of the Yao Family has a comment about you!”

Du Gang was intrigued and asked hastily, “What comment?”

“A gold-scaled fish is not an ordinary creature, it transforms into a dragon once it encounters the wind and cloud!”

Yao Zixuan smiled and said, “I learned from our elder and have a comment for you as well, do you want to hear it?”

Du Gang was still pondering the previous comment when he heard her words. He looked at her and nodded, “Go ahead!”

She slowly said, “A piece of jade requires numerous hammering and chiseling out of the deep mountains. Wildfires burn as commonplace!”

“From my perspective, you’re someone who can survive hardships as easily as breathing…”

“Combine this with our elder’s comment, these two sentences suggest that there’s a strong chance for you to overcome the upcoming disaster, turn this crisis into an opportunity, and begin your era!”

Du Gang paused for a moment. He wasn’t sure whether to believe or not those who cast predictions, thus he was in a hesitant state.

He looked at Yao Zixuan, seeing her full of bravado and confidence, he asked, “Can I trust you?!”

“Of course!”

Hearing this, Du Gang chuckled, “Alright, I believe as well. Whatever this Ancient God Tribulation is, I must overcome it!”

At this moment, his previous gloominess vanished, replaced by full confidence!

Meanwhile, he had a slight guess about Du Kang appearing at the edge of the universe, on the planet closest to the Entropy World.

Will he be right? He would only know when the Ancient God Tribulation arrives, but he was 60% confident that his guess might be correct!

Yao Zixuan secretly nodded approval, pleased with Du Gang’s performance at the moment.

She chuckled and said, “Didn’t you ask me why I was telling you all this?”

“I am making a premature investment in you. If you survive the disaster, then the investment is successful, otherwise, consider it a waste of my time…”

This information was extremely valuable for Du Gang. It was like he finally understood his position at that moment.

Whether it was the Jiang Family or the Kong Family, he can comprehend their attitudes as well as the stance of all powers on the Penglai Island.

If before, he was apprehensive and saw his future as grim, like a small boat, blown by the wind, unable to control.

But now he had full control of his future destiny!

Feeling happy, he asked, “What about the compensation? What do you want as a reward?””

He didn’t know what Yao Zixuan wanted now, but if she asked for 38 million Saint Crystals…

Du Gang thought for a while. Compared to this information, those Saint Crystals seemed trivial.

Indeed, such information was invaluable, impossible to buy with money!

Apart from Yao Zixuan, no one else could know, and would tell him!

Yao Zixuan was silent for a while.

After a long time, she said, “My brother is the Nine-Yang Divine Body, and I am the Nine Yin Body. Do you know that?!”

Du Gang was stunned, “Isn’t it the Nine Yin Divine Body?” He quickly detected the problem in Yao Zixuan’s words.

Yao Zixuan sighed, “No, possibly due to a trick of destiny, I was supposed to have the Nine Yin Divine Body, but it’s the Nine Yin Body, just a step away from the Divine Body…”

“If one were to born alone, it wouldn’t be a problem!”

Du Gang frowned and asked, “You mean, your brother…”

Yao Zixuan nodded and said, “The problem is that we are twins, and my brother is the Nine-Yang Divine Body, which led to my Nine Yin Body being suppressed by his Divine Body during the gestation stage…”

“My Nine Yin Body was severely damaged at birth, and it requires a large number of precious Yin attribute divine treasures to potentially restore…”

“These things are often expensive, and neither the Yao Family nor I alone can afford to restore it…”

When he heard this, Du Gang understood!

He didn’t hesitate and said seriously, “I understand. In the future, if I have the ability, I certainly will help you restore your Nine Yin Body…”

Yao Zixuan bit her lip, her flaming red lips looked very attractive at that moment.

Du Gang’s heart raced when he saw this, but he quickly suppressed it, swallowed his saliva without showing any signs, cleared his throat, and asked, “Do you have anything else to add?!”

Yao Zixuan didn’t notice Du Gang’s actions. She looked at him with complicated emotions and said, “Actually, I don’t have much longer to live…”

“What?”

Du Gang looked at her in surprise, “Didn’t you just break through to the God Spirit Level?!!”

Yao Zixuan nodded, “If I hadn’t broken through to the God Spirit Level this time, I would have died in the God Temple…”

“And breaking through to the God Spirit Level only granted me a lifespan of a hundred years…”

A hundred years!!

To Earth people in the Milky Way Galaxy, it’s a lifetime, a whole life!

But for an existence that supposed to be eternal, a God Spirit Level powerhouse, it’s a catastrophe!

Du Gang gazed at her handsome face and said solemnly, “Don’t worry, within a hundred years, I will surely restore your body…”

Yao Zixuan gave a charming smile, “Good, then I wish you a successful breakthrough of the Ancient God Tribulation to transform into a real dragon!”

Du Gang smiled.

In this moment, the two of them seemed to share a sense of mutual understanding and sympathy.

“We are both in the same boat, why does it matter if we have known each other before?” Du Gang lamented.

On hearing this, Yao Zixuan chuckled and added, “Why worry about having no confidants in the world when everybody knows you.”

Du Gang shook his head, a bitter expression on his face. Indeed, everyone in the world knew his name as the Ancient God. But what use was it if he was still cursed?

Thinking of this, he asked, “Do you have any conjectures about the Ancient God curse?!”

He wanted to see if this person who cultivated the Law of Cause and Effect had a different perspective.

Yao Zixuan chuckled and said, “You are asking the right person, I am not boasting, but even if you asked other True Gods or even Great Powers, they might not know…..”

Du Gang immediately became excited, hurriedly asking, “What is really happening?!”

Yao Zixuan chuckled and said, “Curses generally fall into two categories, those made by human hands and those not made by human hands!”

“The ones made by man are generally simple and relatively easy to resolve…”

“But the most terrifying curses often come from non-human sources…”

“This implies that these curses, they are heaven-sent!”

Heaven wants you to die!

It is as they say, if the God of Death wants you to die in the third watch, who dares keep you until the fifth?

Du Gang furrowed his brows. “Are you implying that heaven wants to wipe out my Ancient God race?!”

Yao Zixuan nodded, “Yes!”

Du Gang pondered for a moment, then asked, “Does it have anything to do with Entropy?”

The only thing he could think of was this!

Yao Zixuan’s eyes revealed a trace of approval as she nodded and said, “It has to do with that.”

Du Gang quickly remembered the scenes of Pangu creating the universe, furrowing his brows and asking, “Does it have anything to do with Pangu’s creation of heaven and earth?”

This universe was created by Pangu, who exploded and spread his own body throughout the entire universe.

Yao Zixuan nodded and began to tell the story.

“Pangu’s creation of heaven and earth was meritorious. It saved the Primordial Continent, it saved this world!”

Du Gang squinted his eyes, recalling the scenes he had seen before, he slowly asked, “What crisis did the Primordial Continent face?”

Yao Zixuan shook her head, “I can’t say, it is too terrifying to speak of. I was able to understand it only because of the Law of Cause and Effect…”

She sighed, “I’m not that short-lived. Although the Nine Yin Divine Body was damaged, I could still live a long time…”

“The reason for my state is that I was arrogant and thought I was invincible after mastering the Law of Cause and Effect…”

“So, I began to explore the heavens and earth, searching for my origins and the secrets of the universe…”

“Eventually, I learned something I was not supposed to know…”

She seemed to fall into some horrific recollection, her eyes filled with fear.

“Hu~!”

Soon, she shook her head, discarding the thoughts, “Thankfully, my ancestor noticed early and promptly sealed and removed what I had seen, thus sparing my life. Otherwise, you wouldn’t be able to see me.”

Du Gang understood. The Primordial Continent, or rather, this world, was faced with a terrifying enemy and was saved by Pangu’s creation of heaven and earth.

After Yao Zixuan recovered a bit and collected her thoughts, she continued, “Pangu’s meritorious creation of the heavens conferred a great merit upon your Ancient race, elevating you to the Ancient God race…”

“This is both a blessing and a curse!”

She shook her head and sighed, “While Pangu’s creation of the heavens and earth is indeed a great merit, the problem is that this world faced a terrifying enemy…”

“Who this enemy was, I can’t remember because my memory has been sealed. However, outwardly, it manifested as Entropy!”

“Entropy relentlessly devoured the world, Pangu’s creation of the heavens and earth delayed the world’s destruction by entropy….”

“If it was just that, there would be no issue, but then, the human race of this universe was born!”

Yao Zixuan shook her head, “I don’t know what the Supreme Nuwa was thinking at the time, but certainly it was related to saving the entire Primordial Continent…”

“Anyway, the Supreme Nuwa created the human race of this universe, which is the humanity of our entire universe now…”

Du Gang felt he was very close to the truth now.

He held his breath, sat upright, and listened to her story carefully.

“The emergence of the human race of this universe made them part of this world and the Heavenly Dao.”

“Heavenly Dao?!” Du Gang was taken aback.

Yao Zixuan explained, “No one knows what exactly Heavenly Dao is, but merit and curses can either deify a race or cause its extinction!”

Du Gang, having been a victim, fully understood this point. He also acknowledged the existence of Heavenly Dao, whether acknowledged or not, Heavenly Dao is always there!

Yao Zixuan asked back, “Do you understand now why the Ancient Gods are cursed?!”

Du Gang looked solemn, “Is it because countless humans continue to fall into the Entropy at the edges of the universe?”

“Are these countless deaths karma? Are they the source of the curse?!”
