Chapter 2420
“Oh.”
James listened intently.
Sophie cut to the chase and said, “The Five Ancestral Gods each controlled the Genesis power of Metal, Wood, Water, Fire, and
Earth. There were many Ancestral Gods in the Primeval Age. However, no one knows what occurred back then. They completely
vanished without a trace, thus ending the Primeval Age.”
“As the Primeval Age drew to a close, it ushered in the Ancient Heavenly Court Age. Some cultivators of the Heavenly Court
obtained the Five Elements of Genesis and crossed into the Emperor Rank.
“I came from that era. Meanwhile, my father was a war god of the Ancient Heavenly Court.
“Many unbelievable things transpired during the Ancient Heavenly Court Age. Back then, as I was still young and my cultivation
base was weak, I didn’t understand much about what happened.
“I could only vaguely remember my father saying something to me before he sealed me away
Hearing this, James could not help but ask, “What did he say?”
Sophie replied. “Before sealing me away, he told me this, ‘The world is changing and no one can escape fate’s punishment. The
cycle of heaven and earth is inevitable. I don’t want you to die, so I have no choice but to seal you away. By the time you awake,
everything will be different, and you’ll appear in a brand-new
era.””
After she spoke, she took a deep breath.
“Indeed, when I woke up, I was already in another era.
“That was the Primordial Age where Emperor Jabari reigned supreme. It was truly a bright era where a Grand Emperor would be
born every once in a while. Unfortunately, as the Demon Race invaded Earth, the Primordial Age drew to a close.”
“Meanwhile, the current era we are in is called the Apocalypse Age.”
James was listening intently.
Now, he had a rough understanding of this universe’s history, which could be roughly divided into different eras the Primeval
Age, the Ancient Heavenly Court Age, the Primordial Age, and the current Apocalypse Age
However, he had no idea how long each era lasted. Perhaps not even Sophie had any idea.
“The power of the Five Elements of Genesis originated from the Ancestral Gods of the Primeval Age During the Ancient
Heavenly Court Age, the Five Ancestral Gods obtained the Five Elements and became Grand Emperors.”
“This means that if you obtain one of the Five Elements, you’ll gain enormous potential and at least reach the Grand Emperor
Rank.”
Sophie briefly narrated the history of the universe and the origin of the Five Elements of Genesis.
James listened intently.
“Why did the Primeval Age and the Ancient Heavenly Court Age end?” He asked puzzledly. “Did we humans do something to
violate the Heavenly Path and bring about the Apocalypse Age? Is that why the Heavenly Path targeted humans?“
Sophie said, “I don’t know either. Although I was born in the Ancient Heavenly Court Age, I was sealed away not too long after. I
don’t know much about the era I was born in, let alone the Primeval Age. I’m somewhat knowledgeable about the Primordial Era,
but there’s no need for you to know all this at the moment. The only thing you need to do at the moment is to cultivate hard and
compete for providence.”
“Mhm.” James said with determination in his eyes, “I will definitely obtain the Five Elements of Genesis. I will cut down anyone
who dares stand in my way.”
James had a conviction in his heart. He certainly possessed the strength to fight against the prodigies of the Three-Thousand
Worlds for the providence.
Sophie warned, “Don’t let your guard down. God knows how many prodigies who were sealed since the Primordial Age plan to
emerge in his etra. Perhaps you believe that Lucifer is the strongest individual you’ve ever met. In that case, I’ll have to warn you
that you’ll encounter countless other prodigies who are more terrifying than Lucifer in the future.”
“Thank you for the advice. I’ll keep them in mind.”
After briefly discussing with Sophie, James continued scrolling through the feed of the Martial Arts
Forum.
