Chapter 107: with translation of chapter title

The era of the Primordial Three Tribes... why did you bring me here?

After confirming the era of this new round of simulation, Zhao Si felt puzzled:

In the three simulations with Jin Bing as the main perspective, essentially, its fundamental purpose was to stop the Demon Race's slaughter of humans, to prevent the future recurrence of mutual slaughter between demons and humans.

So Jin Bing's puzzle-solving process was gradually analyzing the root cause of the slaughter incident, and the conclusion went from the initially believed 【human barbarity】 to the true answer 【humans are the Heaven-ordained protagonists】.

After solving the puzzle, it was various small-scale micro-operations to achieve big gains, ultimately, under the premise of being unable to touch this fundamental contradiction of the Heavenly Dao, achieving the perfect ending of equality among all races, realizing an eternal primordial wilderness.

This whole line of thought is clear and discernible, step by step, and Jin Bing, after three lifetimes of reincarnation, truly saved all innocent people.

But this round...

It's clear that Ancestor Phoenix is furious at your offense, but unexpectedly, it didn't blast you with a mouthful of Southern Ming Vermilion Fire to turn you into crispy chicken; instead, it restrained its shame and anger and taught you something called "ethics and morality".

Really, compared to this bird brother and early Jin Bing, the difference isn't big at all; in fact, it's even a bit better than Jin Bing, at least its thinking is very simple, and both options serve the same purpose.

If you choose option A, hello, mating!

The innately divine Ancestor Phoenix has brought you an unheard-of 'civilization', and in exchange, from now on, you will be its 'slave'...

Something's odd...

If Ancestor Phoenix's temper were this good, then the era of the Three Tribes would hardly be cursed by later Demon Race as 'precious things'.

The so-called 'Phoenix Clan' actually refers to the various phoenix species transformed after Ancestor Phoenix bestowed its bloodline upon other birds; they originally had no wisdom like ordinary birds, but under the catalysis of Ancestor Phoenix's innately divine bloodline, they all gained wisdom like yours.

And Jin Bing, still too extreme...

Ancestor Phoenix's bird body shuddered, then shuddered again! Although its face is full of feathers, you clearly feel its shame and anger!

Damn, I gotta die again twice!

Zhao Si is very puzzled:

Save the Phoenix Clan? Or save the Three Tribes?

What's good about saving those three precious things?!

This reason finally convinced you: as an innately noble intelligent species, you and your foolish kin are completely not on the same level; having them as a contrast, you should indeed avoid becoming like them.

Full of confusion, Zhao Si had no choice but to continue the game:

The fragrant sacred blood made you involuntarily swallow it; phoenix blood entered your belly, and an intensely hot sensation immediately surged through your whole body!

Afterward, you spontaneously understood a script called 'Phoenix Seal' and its corresponding language; from then on, when communicating with other birds, you no longer need to squawk randomly!

Thus, you reluctantly gave up the idea of mating and laying eggs with the hard-to-find Ancestor Phoenix, and then, under its recommendation, joined the "Phoenix Clan"...

And they welcomed you as a new member, after all, in this primordial wilderness full of foolish beings, wise life is scarce to the point of being pitiful; with your addition, the Phoenix Clan becomes livelier.

From here, you, who had only lived in a tiny corner, learned how vast the primordial wilderness is: it can roughly be divided into the Four Wastelands, Four Seas, and Central Province; above the starry sky, there are also endless heavenly stars.

At the same time, various inheritance information from Ancestor Phoenix's bloodline surged into your blank-slate consciousness: this is the great volcano in the southern primordial wilderness, the giant bird calls itself 'Ancestor Phoenix', a being born noble and divine.

"Ancestor Phoenix..." you just opened your mouth.

Faced with the perfect Ancestor Phoenix, the excited you really wanted to greet it, you chose (?)

This question about the world's origin also sparked curiosity among other Phoenix kin: "Right, chief, you know everything, how did the primordial wilderness come to be, do you know?"

You became even more bewildered, because living among a bunch of barbaric kin, you completely didn't understand what 'master and servant' meant, nor had you ever heard of 'matching families'.

You seemed to turn into a ball of fire...

So, there must be a problem...

This behavior is very abnormal, because first, Ancestor Phoenix is an innately divine being with great supernatural powers; facing a weak chicken that dares to offend it, it should be slaughtered to vent anger, and even if not killed, it should certainly be harshly punished.

"Good question!"

Ancestor Phoenix left you speechless again, after thinking, it said: "I am the master, you are the slave, our status is unequal!"

Ancestor Phoenix flicked its wings, and in your astonished gaze, it declared passionately: "Thus I am the divine formed from the essence of the Heaven-Opening Bird God, innately superior to all things, rightfully destined to occupy the entire primordial wilderness and become its lord! Annihilate all non-Phoenix enemies!"

"Without feelings, can't mate? You couldn't help but tell it about your kin: they also have nothing called feelings between them, yet it doesn't affect their egg-laying, right?"

"Ancestor Phoenix hesitated, then gave another reason: 'I already have a partner!'"

"Intelligent, wise, noble, powerful, beautiful... you admiringly exclaimed: 'How could there be such a perfect existence in the world?'"

"Ancestor Phoenix coughed, then its eyes shifted, and with fervor it spread its wings and proclaimed loudly: 'Actually, the primordial wilderness was opened up by a colossal giant bird!'"

"Good ancestral duty!"

In the great volcano, you and your Phoenix friends followed Ancestor Phoenix to learn various things; language, writing, ethics and morality are merely the basics, while more and higher knowledge is what truly matters.

What's the point of saving this heaven-defying old thing...

At most, we've only just met for the first time, so why rush into love at first sight, either mating or laying eggs...

"My great Phoenix Clan, ten thousand victories!"

You don't even know how long has passed, but by the time you wake up again, you've already transformed into a noble phoenix species!

Putting other things aside, just speaking of Jin Bing's experiences in its final life, it can basically be clearly said:

These three primordial ancient things are totally not good stuff; internally they promote heaven-defying supremacy of their own clan, externally they carry out various enslavement operations; if not for the three primordial ancestors all falling at the end of the primordial great war, Di Jun might not necessarily have been able to establish a relatively equal Heavenly Court.

"That great bird slept in the void; upon waking, it spread its wings to hold up heaven and earth, then died of exhaustion from holding up the sky, its body became the sky-supporting mountain in Central Province, its blood turned into rivers, its feathers into stars..."

"But Ancestor Phoenix is different; it also possesses extraordinary wisdom, even comprehending languages and scripts you don't know—this is practically a heaven-sent friend for you!"

In different realms, countless races dwell—birds, tigers, snakes, oxen...

You don't know what slavery means; you merely thought this pretty bird wanted to be your friend, after all you possess wisdom surpassing your kin, and facing foolish kin you have always felt lonely and isolated.

You studied with obsessive fervor, and toward the generous Ancestor Phoenix who imparted knowledge, your admiration grew; thus one day you asked a long-standing troubling question.

You didn't mind Ancestor Phoenix's difficulty, and you asked yourself: "How did the primordial wilderness come to be?"

"A: Hello, mating! B: Hello, laying eggs!"

Seeing this, Zhao Si felt quite surprised; the protagonist's heaven-defying remarks were not only not blamed by Ancestor Phoenix, but instead Ancestor Phoenix gave it a lesson on ethics and morality, seriously explaining why one shouldn't act recklessly.

And the folk descriptions of the primordial era are also roughly the same; in short, two words:

Heaven-defying!

Zhao Si: ……

"What is the ultimate purpose of this chapter?"

First, A!

Gritting his teeth, Zhao Si decided to follow the old method:

【Ancestor Phoenix: ……】

No, bro……

【In the past, the Ancestor Phoenix with a pleasant expression, this time however displeasedly rebuked you with a sentence: "How many times have I said, in the clan you must address by title!"】

【Ancestor Phoenix: ……】

【Their numbers are not many, but for you, joining them is truly a great joy worth celebrating, because all of a sudden you have dozens or even hundreds of friends you can communicate with!】

【Seeing you become more and more confused, the helpless Ancestor Phoenix had to bring out its final trump card: "Don't always take those idiots as examples; we intelligent beings certainly cannot be lumped together with that brainless flock—this is the very reason ethics and morals exist!"】

"They're still not dead?"

【Thus, you settled in this great volcano, and each day you played with these fellow clansmen… yes, fellow clansmen! Those wild birds that look like you cannot be considered your fellow clansmen; these birds that differ in appearance but can happily communicate with you are truly your fellow clansmen!】

【Can't we have a few more? You, confused, again use your kind as an example: "My kind mates wherever they go; since partners aren't fixed, why can't we have a few more?"】

No! Jin Bing initially also seemed not quite normal, his head full of immature extremist thoughts—either sliding kneel or opening slaughter; later, as he grew older, this flaw slowly improved.

【Your sense of belonging to the Phoenix clan exceeds that to your wild kin, and you only disdain it…】

Looking at the two options, Zhao Si was dumbfounded; having grown used to Jin Bing, this normal human protagonist, how could today they assign me a protagonist with a head full of pornographic trash, a heaven-defying character?

【You raise your head and utter a hormone-filled Phoenix saying: "Ah Feng, I want to sleep with you!"】

【"So!"】

What heaven-defying thing?!

【You listened blankly as it spouted lots of so-called ethics and morals, but you couldn't really understand; you only roughly grasped its meaning: "Between us there are no feelings, we cannot mate…"】

【Of course, you have no concept of these races, since you've only seen birds, but that doesn't stop you from imagining what they look like.】

Zhao Si:???
