Chapter 275: with translation of chapter title

Outside the realm, the Nether River continues its frenzied assault on the membrane of heaven and earth, trying to seize the rebellious son!

Within the realm, all the Asuras, under the calm command of their great Profound Heaven Emperor, each busied themselves: building cities, repairing houses, reconstructing all kinds of industries.

Pangu

Blood God Son

Under the protection of Pangu's will, the Asura race has already gained the ability and qualification for independence; they will completely sever ties with everything of the past, no longer subject to the control of any living father.

The Nether River, the creator who forged the Asura race, can no longer point fingers at them from now on.

At the same time, under Xue Xuan's protection, the Asura race will also free themselves from the bonds of all schemes and conspiracies; whether it is the Heavenly Court or the sages, they can only accept their independence.

Beyond the Three Realms, outside the Five Elements, it is merely this……

Golden Profound Heaven Court

Xue Xuan gazed at the furious Nether River beyond the realm, and let out a breath as if relieved of a heavy burden:

Fortunately! Nothing has proceeded according to the original clearance storyline! "If I had not fortuitously reunited with Pangu's true form, but instead directly led everyone into the Eternal Wasteland, then while it could indeed save the beings of the Wasteland, my Asura race could never break free from our father's control!"

Sea of Blood

"In that case, even if I became the Heavenly Emperor, what would it matter?"

Even Jin Bing, who had witnessed the entire process, could not help but sigh:

Eternal Primordial Wasteland

Although the fundamental cause of the various problems faced by the Asura race is the collapse of heaven and earth, their suffering is undoubtedly entirely caused by the Nether River.

Their enemy has always been only one—the Nether River! If they merely save the world without breaking free from the Nether River's control, then the domineering Nether River will sooner or later subject them to countless troubles.

Continuing the Wasteland has never been important to the Asura race, for they are the very material needed to sustain the Wasteland, the greatest victims, and of course they would wish for the Wasteland's demise! But without the Nether River, it is crucial to the Asura race.

This is the fundamental contradiction of the Asura clan.

"So, what should we do next?"

Jin Bing asked him curiously.

Live a lifetime!

Xue Xuan smiled and said: "Since I brought them here, there is no reason to go back, no matter what my father does, I will never leave this place in this lifetime, nor will I ever see him again."

Just pretend he doesn't exist as a father!

"Moreover, if I go out, I will surely be forcibly controlled by my father, the Blood God Son; he may not dare to kill me, but he will surely make me wish for death but unable to die..."

Saying this, Xue Xuan glanced at the relieved Jin Bing and said calmly: "Of course, he probably won't punish me either; after controlling me, he will likely just make me obediently seize the throne."

"But I don't want to be the Heavenly Emperor, nor do I have the ability; let Xuan Du continue as the Heavenly Emperor."

Having said that, he said no more, turned his head, and joined the reconstruction work.

His face wreathed in smiles, with a joy unseen in three lifetimes, he mingled with his clansmen, rebuilding their home amidst laughter and cheer……

Jin Bing silently watched them.

Inside the small world, enthusiasm soared! Outside the small world, fury raged! Comparing the two, it seems…… there is somehow a strange sense of satisfaction?

【You drove away the tiger and swallowed the wolf, using Pangu's will to resist the fury of the River of the Underworld, and achieved great success!】

【Thus, you gained freedom and ease, and the Asura clan, whose fate is fraught with hardship, also gained freedom and fulfillment.】

【Moreover, the Eternal Wilderness did not fall into a power struggle because of your arrival; Xuan Du continues to serve as the Heavenly Emperor in peace and stability.】

【Perfect, it came so silently……】

【Perhaps only the River of the Underworld does not feel perfect; He is even the sole loser of this whole drama: his son ran away, the hope of seeing his son become a dragon was shattered, and on top of that he got a beating!】

【The domineering old father thinks he has suffered a huge loss……】

【And the more the old father loses, the more you gain; the interests of the River of the Underworld and the Asura clan have long become diametrically opposed in their long hatred, and you even wish he would lose more!】

【Let all suffering and hatred end just like that……】

【……】

【The Asura clan finally found a new home, breaking free from the control of its creator, the River of the Underworld.】

【It is the era; rebuild the Heavenly Court, change the era name to "Asura Calendar Beginning Origin Beginning Origin Operation"!】

【Asura Calendar Beginning Origin Beginning Origin Operation, the Profound Heaven Emperor restored the throne, built city walls, promoted culture, and greatly restored the population.】

【To distinguish it from the Heavenly Court of the Eternal Wilderness, it is called the "Golden Profound Heavenly Court"!】

【Although the Golden Profound Heavenly Court is independent of one realm, the Profound Heaven Emperor specially issued an edict: although the Golden Profound Heavenly Court belongs solely to the Asura clan, it harbors no ill will toward the "Equal Heavenly Court," only wishing to remain solitary in Chaos, not to provoke war.】

【Upon the edict, the fervent Asura clan felt they should overthrow Xuan Du to install their own Profound Heaven Emperor, but since the Profound Heaven Emperor himself said he was unwilling, everyone could only obey……】

【Next era, the frenzied River of the Underworld holy one who madly attacked the embryonic membrane of worlds beyond finally gave up his futile rage; after loudly cursing the rebellious son, he returned fuming to the Sea of Blood.】【The grieving old father, from then on, had no further dealings with the outside world……】

【After the River of the Underworld departed, the Profound Heaven Emperor sent envoys across realms, carrying a friendly letter from the Golden Profound Heavenly Court, to express support for Xuan Du's great undertaking of equality; but given the special circumstances of the Asura clan, they had no choice but to adopt this measure, so to speak.】

【Xuan Du, who always pursued great unification, though dissatisfied with your independent actions, considering the actual situation too complex, ultimately said nothing; on the contrary, he conferred upon you the nominal title of "Asura King," thereby acknowledging your existence.】

【Thus, the Asura clan finally secured a place in the Wilderness, achieving the best possible outcome under the grand trend of the Wilderness……】

【Day after day, year after year.】

【All the past has turned to smoke in the long passage of time.】

【The Asura clan, isolated outside the Wilderness, after briefly drawing people's attention, no longer appears before others, merely closing its doors and each going its own way.】

【Thus, the folk of the Wilderness gradually forgot your existence; only some who once tried to learn from dragons secretly curse, hating you as mud that cannot support a wall, relying on sages yet still hiding away……】

【You came and went in haste, leaving your trace in the ancient legends of the Wilderness; although not widely known, all manner of mighty divine beings remember your deeds.】

【You saved the Wilderness in silence, achieving the best balance among all interests, worthy of the title of savior-hero!】

【Of course, you don't care about these, nor do you seek fame and profit from your achievements; your life has always pursued simplicity and tranquility, but the changing times forced you to accomplish a staggering feat.】

【When legends fade into history and greatness returns to the mundane, you lay down the burdens the world placed on you, gladly immersing yourself in ordinary days, until that eternal forever……】

【Ding! The correct choice brings the correct ending!】

【Looking back over your three lives, you have endured too much; despair and death constantly accompany you, loneliness and low spirits are your close companions, and you were forced to embark on the arduous path of unraveling mysteries and resolving disasters.】

【Repeated deaths and failures have made your confidence increasingly wavering; you have more than once thought of giving up completely, and you no longer want to walk toward the dark future, because you fear that only despair awaits you.】

【Being the protagonist gave you hope to save the world, yet also brought you the deepest suffering……】

【People eat people, people deceive people—this is what you saw in the ancient wasteland!】

【Under incomplete information, you took countless wrong paths; to stop the slaughter, you slaughtered more people, and to expose the deceit, you instead fell deeper into the deceit.】

【Experiences of extreme darkness shaped your extreme character and turned into a mask worn on your face…… The mask hid your smile, and thereafter your face bore only a grim, terrifying mask.】

【But after you painstakingly solved one mystery after another, you were shocked to discover that all this darkness was actually created by the Creator!】

【He imposed the most violent, domineering patriarchy, unilaterally deciding your sacrifice; even if He has His reasons, that doesn't mean you should die!】

【One after another, the rebellions thus began; you paid countless prices, and finally, with the support of the power that opened heaven and earth, you achieved your rebellious goal and ruthlessly avenged your great enemy with your own hands.】

【When you elbowed your father, it was the most exhilarating moment of your life!】

【At last, the dust settled; you successfully led your kin to escape the Nether River's control, shed the heavy mask, and thus ushered in a new era of complete independence and self-determination!】

【You have few desires, nor need many; being able to live freely and peacefully with others is your simplest yet grandest dream.】

【Your dream has become reality—what else could you possibly be dissatisfied with?】

【You smiled as you welcomed the final perfect ending!】

【Ding! Relevant information has been collected enough; this round of simulation has ended, progress saved, players can check anytime……】

【Ding! Settlement is underway; simulation rewards will be determined by the final settlement rating……】

【Ding! This round's aid items have been returned!】

All notification messages displayed; the next moment, two streams of light flew from the phone screen and hovered silently before Zhao Si: a humanoid blood clot, a seven-colored little bird.

"The Blood God Son and the Primordial Power have withdrawn—what about the others?"

Zhao Si, who was sighing over Xue Xuan finally achieving a perfect ending, couldn't help but stare: "Could the Primordial Fragments have been swallowed by the system?!" But then his thoughts shifted: "No… it should be that the upcoming rewards are related to them, just like the last time the Golden Crow True Fire was upgraded……"

【Ding! Settlement completed; this round's rating: Perfect!】

This rating comes as no surprise to Zhao Si, because in this round Xue Xuan cleared every doable dungeon, not only saving the Asura clan but also anchoring the Eternal Primordial, even indirectly slaying the Heavenly Dao, thus completely resolving the issue of the "Heaven‑ordained protagonist."

With this level of completion, a Perfect rating is the only possibility! "What about the reward?"

Zhao Si curiously asked about the question he cared most about; he could hardly wait to see what good stuff the system could produce.

【Ding! This round's reward is: "Xue Xuan's Primordial Endowment!"】

【"Xue Xuan's Primordial Endowment": In Chapter Three, the protagonist Xue Xuan unintentionally, at the demise of the Primordial, used the three primordial‑grade gifts—"Primordial Fragments," "Golden Crow True Fire," and "Heavenly Stars"—to trigger the re‑gathering of the Primordial Essence, thereby reconstituting Pangu's true form.】

Because it serves as the core of Pangu's re‑gathering, it received a tremendous tempering of "Essence," the three treasures merged into one, and obtained a marvelous sublimation.

Possessing this treasure grants a certain measure of "Pangu's Law‑Breaking Divine Power," enabling it to shatter all spells, treasures, magical power, illusions, inner demons, Chaos… a single force that can break myriad laws!

【Hence the rating: Primordial‑Grade!】
