Chapter 1851 The Primordial War
"Hehe." The carp chuckled upon hearing Gui Xuan's words. "You are all really the same."
The carp's big eyes revealed a hint of nostalgia as it spoke. Evidently, the carp and the Black Turtle God had a deep relationship in the past.
The carp glanced at Yun Lintian, and its eyes shook before turning golden. "You..."
A moment later, the carp burst into laughter. "Hahaha! I see! There is hope!"
Yun Lintian and the others were baffled by the carp's sudden change. They glanced at each other in confusion.
The carp laughed heartily before fixing a serious gaze on Yun Lintian. There was also a hint of excitement mingled with sympathy in its eyes.
"What is your name?" The carp asked.
"This junior's name is Yun Lintian." Yun Lintian answered politely.
"Yun Lintian... Defying the heavens? Hehe. It is indeed a suitable name." The carp nodded in approval.
"Can you tell me something, Senior?" Yun Lintian asked cautiously. He wanted to know why it suddenly started laughing.
The carp sighed softly and said. "I cannot reveal the secret of heaven. It will affect that person's plans. You only need to know that you are born with a mission. You must do your best to achieve it. Only then can the people around you be safe."
Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. Mission? What kind of mission was that?
In fact, Yun Lintian was fully aware of this, but he couldn't figure out the specific mission he had to complete. Was it protecting the Divine Realm? Or bringing Yun Tian back? There were too many possibilities.
At this moment, all he could do was address whatever came his way one step at a time and hope that the truth would soon be revealed.
"My name is Yu Liling of the Sky Carp Clan. The one in front of you is an avatar I left behind millions of years ago to observe the situation of this place." The carp, Yu Liling, spoke.
"Sky Carp Clan?" This was the first time Yun Lintian had heard this name. What surprised him even more was that she was actually an avatar.
"We are the clan that serves under the River God." Yu Liling explained. "Most of us perished during the Primordial War. I was one of the fortunate few who managed to survive."
Upon hearing this, Hongyue quickly asked. "Can Senior tell us about the Primordial War? What exactly happened? And what was the cause?"
Yu Liling glanced at Hongyue, and a trace of surprise appeared in her eyes. She muttered to herself. "A descendant of the Moon God. What on earth happened here?… I see… The time has come."
Yu Liling was lost in her thoughts for a long while before looking at Hongyue. "Your power is incomplete. There must be other people similar to you."
Hongyue frowned slightly. She suddenly thought of Lin Xinyao and Yue Chuntao. Both of them possessed unique physiques suitable for the Moon God's power.
"Are there other inheritors of the Primordial Gods?" Yu Liling asked.
"So far, the inheritors of the God of Heaven and the God of Darkness have appeared," Hongyue replied truthfully.
"Sure enough." Yu Liling spoke in a deep voice. "Since those two have appeared, it means the others should have found their inheritors by now."
Hongyue wanted to ask Yu Liling about the Primordial War again but ultimately refrained from doing so.
Yu Liling fell silent for a moment, and an isolating barrier immediately appeared around everyone.
"As I said earlier, there are many secrets behind it, and I cannot reveal them even if I wanted to." Yu Liling spoke solemnly. "However, I can tell you about the Primordial War. All of you deserve to know what happened back then."
Yun Lintian and the others immediately became serious, waiting for her explanation.
Yu Liling carefully considered her words before speaking. "Everything started when the Creator mysteriously disappeared. The thirteen primordial gods did everything to search for the Creator, but they found no trace."
"At first, everything stayed the same. The thirteen primordial gods jointly managed the Primal Chaos in an orderly manner. It was not until one day that the God of Death discovered a trace of the Creator in the Netherworld."
"In order to ensure its authenticity, the God of Death decided to conceal it and investigate it in secret. However, the God of Mortal, who was a close friend of the God of Death, discovered it when he visited the Netherworld."
"He questioned the God of Death about why he hadn't informed everyone. After hearing the God of Death's explanation, the God of Mortal remained unconvinced. He felt that his friend must be hiding something from him."
"The God of Mortal later decided to disclose the information to the other gods, and conflicts slowly emerged thereafter."
Yu Liling closed her eyes and let out a long sigh. "In fact, we have no idea what actually happened between them. Some said that the other gods accused the God of Death of having an ulterior motive. There was also a rumor that the God of Death was responsible for killing the Creator. By the time we found out, they had already divided into two sides."
"One side was led by the God of Death, the Mountain God, the God of Heaven, the Sun God, the God of Darkness, and the Star God. The other side was led by the God of Mortal, the God of Light, the God of Life, the River God, the Moon God, and the God of Fate."
"Every god clan under their command was ordered to participate in the war... It was a devastating sight that you wouldn't wish to see."
Yun Lintian and the others took a deep breath to calm themselves down after listening to Yu Liling. They could only imagine how terrifying a battle between true gods would be. It was no wonder that the Primal Chaos was nearly destroyed in the process.
Yun Lintian frowned deeply and expressed his doubts. "They are primordial gods. Shouldn't they have a more effective way to solve the problem?"
Yu Liling looked at him and said. "Although they are gods, they also experience seven emotions and six desires. No matter the reason, their decision to fight each other demonstrated the presence of personal motives deep within their hearts."
She paused for a moment and then continued. "In the end, both sides perished. I had witnessed their deaths with my own eyes. If not for the God of Time, the Primal Chaos would have ceased to exist long ago."
