Chapter 618 – Pangu's Motive

Meng Po raised her eyebrows, "A teardrop of a god contains Great Karma. Only the benefactor of the teardrop's owner may consume it to temporarily borrow the power of Heavenly Dao. It is considered a life-saving artifact, though. Why do you ask? Do you have one?"

"How far can I borrow the strength? Will it affect the owner of the teardrop?"

Meng Po's pupils expanded as she figured that Miaomiao might have one, "It won't affect the owner since all power comes from the Heavenly Dao. Heavenly Dao always grants a blessing to anyone who can move the hearts of deities. There is no side-effect either."

"Good."

Miaomiao steeled his heart and asked Dion, 'Is that true?'

Ding

<Yes and no. You can indeed borrow the power of Heavenly Dao, but there are dire consequences.>

'What are the consequences?'

<If you use the teardrop for your personal gain, the teardrop will kill you and directly transform your soul into an evil spirit.>

<If you use the teardrop for evil purposes, the teardrop will destroy your soul.>

<If you use the teardrop to save your life, your cultivation base will be destroyed.>

<If you use the teardrop to borrow power to save innocent people from a great calamity, the teardrop will bestow you Blank Stellar Stars, depending on the merit you contribute to the Heavenly Dao.>

"…"

The teardrop was indeed dangerous. Miaomiao glanced at the icon of a water drop in one of the system inventory slots.

"Last question, how strong is the power of Heavenly Dao?"

Meng Po wryly smiled, "Up to the strength of the teardrop's origin and owner."

Miaomiao glanced at Xie Tian. The latter also noticed what Miaomiao was about to do and nodded.

"Well, shit. This mess is my fault, so…"

Miaomiao ejected the teardrop from his inventory slot and swallowed it. Then, he tossed Mu Yi away as he had no time to steal his luck.

Ding

<You have consumed the teardrop of Xie Tian, the God of Time.>

BADUMP

Miaomiao's heart shook. A Flood of memory entered his mind, and Dion gave him a confirmation.

<For one minute, you may use the full strength of Xie Tian, the God of Time.>

<This will be the most dangerous fight you have ever had. Good luck.>

Miaomiao suddenly transformed into Xie Tian. As for the real Xie Tian, he snickered as he had expected it.

"I don't know if it is ensuring to have another me as my ally."

Miaomiao scoffed and spoke in Xie Tian's voice, "Whatever. Let's clean up the mess before the calamity happens for real! Also, WHERE THE FUCK IS ADAM, NUWA, AND FUXI?! A FUCKING SAGE IS RAMPAGING IN YOUR DOMAIN!!"

Great Dao Sage Realm

As soon as Hongjun noticed the presence of a Chaos Demon God in the Heavenly Dao Domain, he stood up and prepared to go down to help Xie Lian, Fu Daotian, and Rah.

However, the voice of Pangu echoed.

"Let them fight."

Hongjun looked up in anger, "No deity can defeat that thing."

"The Xie Clan is still there."

"But Xie Tian and Xie Qingtian's power won't work on it. All sages are immune to the Law of non-entity universe."

"That thing is not actually a real Chaos Demon God or a sage. It's a remnant will of Chaos Demon God that has stolen Mu Yi's stellar star. Its strength is actually comparable to a weak deity with only one stellar star or no follower. Even if it manages to recreate the Chaos Demon God's 12 Sacs, it can still be defeated as long as it remains in the Dark Forbidden Zone or Heavenly Dao's universe."

"I doubt they can defeat it. Chaos Demon Gods can infinitely self-revive as long as they have a strand of negative karma in them. The local gods will run out of energy first."

"Yes, but it can serve as a stimulation for several chess pieces over there."

Hongjun shook his head, "Mao Miaomiao again. You're spoiling him. Hasn't he already shifted from a non-entity villain to a protagonist of the generation? Isn't he strong enough to be independent?"

"Not if he realizes how small he currently is. Stimulation, pressure, and desperation efforts are a necessity elements to separate him from the other war marionettes. Anyone with self-confidence, perseverance, and willpower can easily become a protagonist and win the Heavenly Fate's favor. But Hongjun, do you think all protagonists stay as protagonists forever?"

"A protagonist either dies a hero or lives long enough to see himself become a villain."

"Is that from a mortal's quote? But yes, protagonists of Heavenly Fate usually see the universe in black and white. Once they are disillusioned, they are prone to become villains."

"What about anti-heroes?"

"They are nothing but crazed lunatics that accidentally saves a group of innocents people. They can't be controlled, and they are selfish and greedy by nature. They need to be purged as soon as they were born."

"..."

"Therefore, instead of raising protagonists or anti-heroes, I'm cultivating a villain and a protagonist at the same time. Mao Miaomiao has been on both sides and he sees everything in colorful shades of grey. He is a lot better than one-dimensional heroes. Of course, good pawns are obedient pawns. Intelligent and unpredictable pawns are no good."

"…"

"Anyway, Heavenly Dao can't accommodate so many immortals and gods. They multiply too fast, and I can't afford to share Heavenly Dao's luck with everybody. We need to sacrifice the useless ones to raise the capable ones to join the Sage Realm. Do you why I let Minghe and the others reset the universe so many times?"

"… To experiment, search, and select the best immortals and gods as the next generation of sage candidates and reset Heavenly Dao's luck."

"Yes. The next game will be the last game. Make sure you protect your best disciples, vessels, followers, and chess pieces. I might remove a few useless sages and replace them soon."

"I know."

Heavenly Dao Sage Realm

Five sages sat in a circle, observing the events in the Dark Forbidden Zone.

When they noticed that a remnant will of Chaos Demon God appeared, they glanced at Nuwa and Fuxi, who were the owners of the area.

Jade Sage, All-Heaven Sage, and Virtuous Sage were disciples of Hongjun, and their status was higher than other sages, including Nuwa and Fuxi.

As soon as the three sages stared at them, Nuwa and Fuxi were ashamed.

"I shall go down and end it."

Nuwa was a celestial lady, whose natural beauty was on par with Diaochan and Xu Chu. She wore a flower crown, flower trinkets, and thin clothes made of vine fibers. However, every piece of flower and fiber came from the myth-grade Divine Fusang Tree, which only grew on the Sage Realm.

As soon as Nuwa stood up and left the realm, her body size expanded and become larger than the entire Earth Star System. Her ethereal and invisible body passed through various objects, asteroids, stars, and gigantic beings that were on her way.

Instantly, she arrived at Dark Forbidden Zone.

A breath later, Fuxi also came down. He was also a handsome giant, who donned himself in battle armor from head to toes. His size was the same as Nuwa, but he carried a long double-edged sword.

They found the remnant of Chaos Demon God right away.

Fuxi raised his sword and was about to cut its source of power, but Nuwa waved her hand and stopped him.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

Nuwa looked ahead. She discovered that her King Piece, aka Adam, had been hiding on the planet. The latter was smiling and looking at a certain individual with interests.

She frowned and sent her sound transmission to her chess piece.

'Adam. Why aren't you helping?'

Adam looked up and discovered his master right away.

'Ancestor Pangu ordered me not to help them.'

'Why?'

'He's scheming something again.'

'Hmm?'

Nuwa narrowed her eyes. He pinched her fingers and read the past events, karma, and traces of Pangu's Qi. Then, she discovered the reason.

'Is this for the sake of the players and Mao Miaomiao?'

'Yes. Ancestor Pangu wants to motivate his favorite boy toy. Also, that thing is as weak as a Small Galactic Deity. It's just more tricky than usual, so they can handle it if they know the trick.'

'Hmm. I see.'

Nuwa relayed the conversation to Fuxi. The latter frowned and looked at his King Piece, Fu Daotian.

"Hey, my chess piece is fighting, but why doesn't your chess piece do his job?"

"Then, why don't you tell him to back away? This is Mao Miaomiao's fight."

"No. Tell Adam to fight. Don't let him be manipulated by Lord Pangu all the time."

"What if I don't?"

"I'll go down right now and end this mess."

"You will anger Lord Pangu."

"I don't care."

"… Suit yourself."

Fuxi scoffed. He manifested his body to the Heavenly Dao Realm.

But something unbelievable happened before they could take action.

Ding

<Xie Qingtian has activated the Providence Law Domain of Rebirth Destruction. Any fleshly body of a deity that Xie Qingtian has destroyed cannot be reformed, healed, or regenerated.>

<Meng Po has activated the Providence Law Domain of Renew Reincarnation. Anyone that drinks the water that Meng Po has created will not be able to remember anything after they are reincarnated or reform their fleshly body.>

<Xie Tian has activated the Providence Law Domain of Chronosphere. He can foresee a million variables of the future in the scope of one hour as long as he doesn't run out of Connate Qi.>

Miaomiao wryly smiled as he was stunned by the power of deities. Everyone deserved to be called a god or a legend.

Miaomiao could also replicate Xie Tian's power, but he chose not to do it at the moment. He might have one minute to use Xie Tian's power, but he chose to save it for the last moment.

Xie Lian, Fu Daotian, and Rah noticed their arrival. They let out a sigh of relief and turned back to fight against the initial sage monster.

The three lost count of how many times they had destroyed the monster's body. It kept coming back to life, and it slowly grew stronger by consuming the miasma of the Dark Forbidden Zone.

Xie Lian looked at his younger brother. He had so many things to say, but he couldn't do it.

Xie Qingtian's eyes met with Xie Lian's. The former spoke first.

"Brother, take the front. I'll kill it while my Law Domain is active. My power can disable its self-regeneration ability!"

"Okay!"

As Xie Lian was about the shift his position and led the group for another charge, Xie Tian widened his eyes and shouted.

"WATCH OUT FOR THE EYES!!"

"What?"

One of the monster's eyes widened and fired a massive beam at Xie Lian.

The beam was small, yet it was destructive. Xie Lian's Law Domain was destroyed!

PU

The beam pierced through Xie Lian's gigantic fleshly body. It cracked and dissipated into ash!

Fortunately, the true soul of Xie Lian was still in his weapon, and he was safe.

The monster's mouths opened wide and inhaled, trying to suck the soul of Xie Lian in the weapon and eat it.

Grand Elder Rah grabbed the sword and shield of Xie Lian with his beak. Then, he tossed them toward Miaomiao, who was hovering behind them.

The sword and shield shrank into a normal-sized tower shield and a long sword. Miaomiao barely caught them.

The voice of Rah echoed in Miaomiao's mind, "Junior, protect him until he can reform his fleshly body. We'll handle it!"

Miaomiao nodded, but he had another plan. He gently laid the artifacts down and unsheathed Killer Queen.

'Do you think you can eat a sage, Killer Queen?'

Killer Queen had long recovered from the previous upgrade. She cackled and anticipated another action.

'No problem! I can eat any food, and living being with Qi are food!'

Miaomiao smiled and looked up.

Meng Po already covered the monster with a mass of water. The demon drank several mouthfuls of the forgetful water, and the setup was completed.

Meng Po immediately withdrew from the battle, letting the others jump in. She apologized to other gods.

"I am but a weak old lady. My power is not suited for combat."

Rah nodded, "It's alright. It's the effort that counts!"

BOOM

Rah shattered the monster meat into a thousand pieces again. Xie Qingtian also summoned the illusion of his galaxy and transformed into another galactic giant.

As for Xie Tian, he had disappeared while everybody's attention was on Xie Lian and the monster.

BOOM

Xie Tian suddenly emerged from one of the scattered masses of the monster. He dragged five massive purple sacs, which looked like a snake's poison sac with him.

"Master! Target the sacs behind the eyeballs! I've already sealed five. Seven left!"

Miaomiao narrowed his eyes and tried to activate Xie Tian's Law Domain.

Suddenly, he sensed that everything around him was so slow that the time almost stopped.

The time didn't actually slow down. In reality, Miaomiao's perception sense got faster.

Moreover, a million images of new memory flooded his mind. He could see new timelines that didn't belong in the past, and every image had Miaomiao in them.

They were the possible events that could happen in the future, but Miaomiao felt like he had experienced everything himself.

The experience only lasted a second, but Miaomiao felt like he had experienced a million different timelines. Moreover, Miaomiao in every timeline used Xie Tian's skill, multiplying the possible future by another million!

Then, within those millions, every future Miaomiao saw another million potential futures!

Infinite loops occurred. Miaomiao lost count how many possible futures he saw.

'I see. This is Xie Tian's golden finger.'

Miaomiao now understood why Xie Tian was so strong. He simply knew every possible outcome in a short term.

Miaomiao soon discovered the meanings behind Xie Tian's action.

The monster had 12 Chaos Sac in it. Each sac served as a soul fragment that continues to enhance, heal, and resurrect the fleshly body of the monster.

Secondly, the sacs ate the miasma to get stronger. They could also act as an extra brain as they slowly memorize the skills, Providence Law Domains, and the secrets behind every attack of the deities.

Xie Tian sealed the five grotesque masses and passed them to Meng Po. He vanished and infiltrated the body of the monster again.

Miaomiao also followed Xie Tian into the giant's body. He followed the future visions and avoided the detection of the monster's Qi.

Soon, he discovered a large sac behind one of its eyes.

Incomplete Chaos Demon God's Dantian Sac

This sac was once one of Mu Yi's stellar planet's core fragments. However, the will of Tlaloc has corrupted it and turned it into a Chaos Demon God's Dantian Sac.

Every Chaos Demon God is born with 12 Dantians Sac. Each is as strong as a Perfect Sage's sanctified dantian. All sacs are immune to Connate Qi attacks, Law Domain's abilities, and negative karma.

This dantian sac is incomplete due to its host's cultivation base. It is currently devouring the local wandering evil spirits and luck to recover its strength. However, the Heavenly Dao suppresses its growth and power to the small-galactic deity realm.

Note: Chaos Demon Gods are descendent of Chaos Seraphim. You know the drill. *wink* *wink*

'Chaos Seraphim?'

Miaomiao's pupils expanded. He checked his status to see his current race.

Demonic War Seraphim

DEMON SERAPHIM?

Chaos "DEMON" God?

Miaomiao narrowed his mind and tried to deduce the future with the power of Xie Tian's Providence Law Domain.

A second later, his expression turned dark.

'Do you think I'm stupid, Pangu?!'
