Chapter 167

After a long while, Fengyun Wuji came to his senses, as if he had thought of something, and hurriedly said, "Fuxi Sovereign God, you have now attained the position of Sovereign God—does that mean the Primordial Age will no longer be destroyed?"

No!

Feng Yi shook his head, speaking calmly: "Originally, even if I became Sovereign God and temporarily intimidated the Light and Dark Sovereign Gods, the Primordial Age would still eventually head toward destruction for various reasons, because the Primordial plane and the Four Holy Beasts contain the power of the balance law, and the power of the balance law cannot be touched by living beings—however"

Hearing Feng Yi's words, Fengyun Wuji subconsciously asked, "However what?"

After glancing at Fengyun Wuji, Feng Yi continued, "However, I now have partial control over the power of the balance law, able to influence its operation, which is why the Primordial plane now enjoys prosperity."

Mastering the balance law.

These words reverberated in his mind, Fengyun Wuji's expression grew slightly dazed, and a tremendous surge rose in his heart.

At his current level, he naturally understood what the balance law represents—it is the fundamental law governing the operation of the entire universe, and to some extent can be considered the primordial Great Dao of the universe.

Fengyun Wuji never expected that Fuxi Sovereign God was not only the master of the law of fate, but also wielded this supreme law of the universe, the balance law.

No wonder.

In his mind appeared the image of when he had just seen Fuxi Sovereign God, that inscrutable aura resembling the manifestation of the Heavenly Dao of the entire universe, and a hint of realization appeared in Fengyun Wuji's eyes.

He originally thought it was the natural state after the Sovereign God merged with the Great Dao law, but now it seems likely to be a special phenomenon produced because Fuxi Sovereign God controls the fundamental law of the universe's operation.

"Indeed, he is the only one in the entire universe who attained the Sovereign God position postnatally, a heaven-defying existence!"

With thoughts turning in his mind, Fengyun Wuji's expression carried a hint of respect as he softly said, "Sovereign God, I wonder what you need me to do?"

Since Fuxi Sovereign God summoned me and revealed these secrets, it is naturally necessary for me to do something.

In this regard, Fengyun Wuji felt not only no dissatisfaction, but rather a sense of anticipation and excitement.

As a member of the Primordial human race, being favored by Fuxi Sovereign God and contributing to the survival of the Primordial Age is, in Fengyun Wuji's view, an immense honor.

Fengyun Wuji believes that any Primordial human present would have this thought.

After glancing at Fengyun Wuji, Feng Yi's aura shifted slightly, carrying a hint of indifference and loftiness, and he said softly, "If you truly wish to change the Primordial Age's fate of destruction, I must fully master the power of the balance law, making the Primordial Age a complete embodiment of the balance law, eternal and indestructible. Now I am only one step away from fully mastering the balance law, so I ask you, Fengyun Wuji, do you want to become a Sovereign God?"

Saying this, countless streams of information flowed in Feng Yi's eyes, reflecting the changes within Fengyun Wuji's body, and then he said, "God, demon, and human—threefold. My deduction was not wrong; you have indeed embarked on the path of the Triune."

"If you can become the Triune God, you will surely break the balance of the entire universe, trigger changes in the balance law, and I will then be able to seize the opportunity to fully master the power of the balance law."

"Triune."

Hearing these words, Fengyun Wuji's mind and spirit trembled slightly, and an inexplicable feeling arose in his heart.

After a long while, he came to his senses and subconsciously said, "Now I understand, Fuxi Sovereign God—the two legacies and the two divinity seals you gave me initially were meant to guide me to become the Triune God!"

The moment his words fell, Fengyun Wuji's aura shifted slightly, and two similar yet different figures emerged from within him.

One figure was aloof and unfeeling, with a radiant god-seal in his forehead that emitted the intent of light's salvation, resembling a Light Sovereign God.

The other figure was surrounded by permeating dark qi, with a god-seal in his forehead emitting endless warlike and slaughtering intent, resembling a Dark Sovereign God.

And Fengyun Wuji's own forehead bore a somewhat illusory sword-shaped mark, containing the utmost sharp and pure sword intent.

One is a god, leaning toward light; the other is a demon, leaning toward darkness; while Fengyun Wuji's true self is a person independent of gods and demons, belonging to neither light nor darkness.

Triune, yet dividing into three—this is Fengyun Wuji's current path.

"Not bad."

Gazing at the three similar yet different figures before him, Feng Yi's eyes held an illusory long river flowing, reflecting their future changes, and he spoke in an ethereal tone, "This is the growth path of your original fate line, Fengyun Wuji; I merely gave you a choice, without overly interfering elsewhere, but now it seems this path is indeed the most suitable for you."

"The Sovereign God's vision is indeed precise."

Fengyun Wuji subconsciously nodded, then his face showed a feeling of emotion as he softly said, "This path indeed perfectly matches my own nature."

Saying this, his expression turned solemn; he bowed to Feng Yi and said in a deep voice, "Sovereign God, Fengyun Wuji wishes to become a Sovereign God, to help you fully master the balance law."

Hearing Fengyun Wuji's words, Feng Yi's tone carried a hint of something indeterminate as he said, "Fengyun Wuji, you must think this through: once you become a Sovereign God, you will merge with the Great Dao law, constantly being washed by the endless divine power and principle contained within it, and you may ultimately lose all emotion, becoming a god of pure reason, just like the present Light and Dark Sovereign Gods."

"Only reason remains."

Hearing this, Fengyun Wuji slightly startled, subconsciously looked toward Fuxi Sovereign God before him.

Looking at him, he certainly does not appear to be a being of only reason devoid of emotion!

"My situation is rather special."

Noticing Fengyun Wuji's gaze, Feng Yi slightly shook his head and said, "I have my own way to maintain my emotions, unaffected by the Great Dao law, but others cannot; once you attain the Sovereign God position, you will inevitably, like the Light and Dark Sovereign Gods, gradually lose your emotions under the washing of the Great Dao law, or perhaps one could say that attaining the Sovereign God position means you will completely vanish from the universe."

"Fengyun Wuji, knowing these things, are you still willing to attain the Sovereign God position and become the second Sovereign God of the Primordial Age?"

After saying that, Feng Yi did not urge him, merely calmly watching Feng Yun Wujie, waiting for his decision.

On the other side, Feng Yun Wujie stood dazed in place, various thoughts continually surging in his heart.

He never imagined that becoming a Supreme God would come with such great restrictions, nor did he expect that Fuxi Supreme God had not only attained the position of Supreme God but was also free from these restrictions.

'No wonder he is the first Supreme God of humanity; it's no surprise that Fuxi Supreme God could easily slay the Dark Supreme God Xierluo and intimidate the Light-Dark Supreme God!'

After his thoughts turned, after a long while, considering the situation the Primeval Human Race now faces, Feng Yun Wujie's eyes flashed with a hint of resolve, and he said in a deep voice: "Supreme God, Wujie has thought it through; I am willing to become the second Supreme God of the Primeval, even if it means losing my own emotions."

As one of the top powerhouses of the current Primeval Human Race, Feng Yun Wujie clearly understands that the present prosperity of the Primeval rests entirely on the support of the Fuxi Supreme God before him.

It is precisely because of the Fuxi Supreme God's intimidation that the Light-Dark Supreme God dares not act rashly against the Primeval Human Race, allowing Primeval powerhouses to slay gods, demons, and angels without hesitation and spread the Dao across myriad worlds.

Otherwise, no matter how many powerhouses the Primeval Human Race has, to the Light-Dark Supreme God they are merely a swarm of ants that can be crushed at will.

But, the Fuxi Supreme God is ultimately just one person, whereas the Light-Dark Supreme God, besides the Dark Supreme God Xierluo who was slain by the Fuxi Supreme God in a plot, also has a full twenty-three other Supreme Gods.

Once the Light-Dark Supreme God achieves cooperation and chooses to join forces against the Primeval, the Fuxi Supreme God may not be able to withstand the combined force of twenty-three Supreme Gods of the same rank.

Therefore, for the future of the Primeval Human Race, some sacrifices are inevitable.

Now, being able to trade his own emotions for the future of the Primeval Human Race, helping the Fuxi Supreme God master the law of balance, Feng Yun Wujie even feels deeply honored.

After all, compared to the originally tragic future of his fate line, the present Primeval is already very fortunate.

And all of this is because of the Fuxi Supreme God before him!

Sensing Feng Yun Wujie's thoughts, Feng Yi gave him a glance filled with praise and said softly: "Good, since you have made your decision, prepare yourself, Wujie; soon will come the opportunity for you to ascend to the position of Supreme God."

Upon saying this, Feng Yi's heart stirred; a divine light containing countless pieces of information appeared before him, like an illusory river of fate, which directly entered Feng Yun Wujie's body.

"This is my insight from attaining the position of Supreme God, as well as the future from your original fate line in which you become a Triune God; these should fill the final shortcoming for you to attain the Supreme God position."

Hum—

The moment the divine light entered Feng Yun Wuji's body, his mind and spirit directly fell into a state of profound mystery.

In a daze, Feng Yun Wuji felt as if he had entered a tributary of the River of Fate, becoming another Feng Yun Wuji—one who, under the scheming of Founding Ancestor Fuxi, paid the price of the near-total extinction of the Primeval Human Race, ascended to the position of Chief God, and achieved the Feng Yun Wuji of the Triune God.

Countless memories and insights surfaced in his mind—the destruction of the primeval era, the sacrifices of countless Primeval Humans, the hatred toward the gods and demons and the Light-Dark Chief God—culminating in the rational state of the Triune God.

Feng Yun Wuji's aura rapidly changed, faintly carrying a touch of indifference and ruthlessness, while also bearing a lofty, transcendent qi that surpassed everything.

Watching Feng Yun Wuji's state change, Feng Yi's eyes flickered with divine light, and a vague insight arose in his heart.

In the original timeline, Feng Yun Wuji relied on Founding Ancestor Fuxi's deductions and schemes, ultimately attaining the position of Chief God.

Now, Feng Yun Wuji still walks the path of the Triune God under his own conscious or unconscious guidance, everything seeming like the cycle of fate.
