ATG: My genius is almost frightening!-Chapter 232 - 231: A History Lesson

After fucking Luo Guxie senseless, and using his dragon to wipe out whatever lingering attachment she still held for her past lover, Yun Wuji called together his women and Mu Bingyun

"I've gathered you all today to say something important," Yun Wuji said, his voice solemn as he looked at each of the six women in the room.

"Yang'er? What's going on?" Luo Guxie asked in surprise, clearly confused. She was still basking in their 'honeymoon' phase, only for him to call everyone for a serious discussion suddenly.

Aside from Mu Bingyun, Luo Guxie, and Jasmine, the rest already had a good idea of what he wanted to say, especially the Phoenix and Golden Crow, who had long since peeked into his memories.

"Some of you may not know this, but in about ten years, a calamity will descend upon the entire Primal Chaos. The Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor, who was banished by Mo E a million years ago, will return, along with her devil race followers." As Yun Wuji spoke, horror crept across the faces of the women.

"The Devil Emperor who fell in love with the Heretic God... she's not dead?" Mu Bingyun asked, her voice trembling slightly. She still remembered the story Yun Wuji told her back when he showed her the dark world.

She never imagined that the day would come when the one thrown beyond the Primal Chaos by the Heaven Punishing Divine Emperor would not only survive but actually return!

"Yes. The Heretic God gave her the World Piercer as a dowry," Yun Wuji nodded. "She used it to create a separate dimension to protect herself and her clansmen, and has spent all this time carving a path to return."

He glanced at Jasmine and added, "The King Realms likely sensed this long ago, especially the Eternal Heaven Realm. They possess the Eternal Heaven Pearl, which can detect the aura of the World Piercer. For the past hundreds of years, they've been secretly gathering profound crystals and spatial stones to repair the wall of the Primal Chaos."

"But their efforts are doomed to fail. It's utterly laughable. They're just wasting precious resources for nothing."

"..." Jasmine didn't respond to his words. She was a 'special' existence in the Star God Realm. Despite being one of the revered Star Gods, she had practically no authority or knowledge of their plans, whether big or small. After all, she had been marked as a 'sacrifice' from the beginning. Neither her status nor her life mattered enough for anyone to bother involving her in such matters.

"Impossible... That can't be..." Luo Guxie muttered in despair. She had just gotten her happiness, and now she was being told the world might be destroyed by some ancient devils?

She couldn't accept that!

She refused to accept it!

"Hey, there's no need to panic. I'm here," Yun Wuji chuckled and patted her head. Hearing his gentle voice, Luo Guxie lifted her head and asked, "Really? Do you have a solution?"

"Of course. That's why I gathered all of you," Yun Wuji nodded with a calm smile. But then, his expression turned serious. "Truthfully, the Devil Emperor's return is no small matter... but I'm at least seventy percent confident I can handle it. What really worries me is—"

"The Abyss of Nothingness," the Golden Crow interrupted, finishing his sentence.

"Yes. Compared to the Devil Emperor, the Abyss is the true calamity," Yun Wuji nodded grimly.

"What do you mean? What are you both talking about?" Mu Xuanyin frowned. She had overheard some things about the Devil Emperor back when she was secretly stalking Yun Wuji, so that part didn't surprise her. But this talk about the Abyss of Nothingness was something entirely new. novelbuddy.cσ๓

"Old people screwed things up and left the mess for us to clean up," Yun Wuji said with a scowl before explaining, "Back when the Ancestral Goddess created the Primal Chaos, she named it the world of 'creation', a world for the living. But at the same time, she also created another world in parallel... a world of extinction."

"That second world held only the power of destruction. To keep the two from clashing, she created the God Realm of Absolute Beginning as a divider between them."

"That world of extinction is the Abyss of Nothingness."

"..." The women all listened quietly. Even the Phoenix and Golden Crow paid close attention, despite already knowing this from before.

"However, here's the strange part," Yun Wuji continued, "when the great war between the gods and devils broke out, the destruction was insane, entire races went extinct, and countless realms were wiped out. At the same time, the laws of the Primal Chaos were severely damaged."

"That damage triggered a huge, silent change in the Abyss. The Abyss, which was supposed to be a world of pure destruction for all eternity, started absorbing energy from the Primal Chaos instead, weakening our world while strengthening itself."

"So the reason why the current Primal Chaos has such a low energy level... the reason no True Gods can ever be born again..." Mu Xuanyin murmured, "Is it all because of that?"

"Yes, because most of the primal energy was absorbed by the Abyss, the energy level of the Primal Chaos dropped sharply. But after some time, that absorption seemed to stop, and everything stabilized," Yun Wuji said.

"No," he shook his head, "the absorption never stopped. It's still going... but now it's only devouring Yin energy. That's also why the Northern Divine Region keeps shrinking every year."

"...So that's the reason," Chi Wuyao, who had been silently listening, suddenly stiffened in shock. Countless God Emperors had broken their heads trying to figure out why the Yin energy across the Primal Chaos was declining, and they all failed. Now, she finally had the answer.

"Why is it that only the Yin energy is still being devoured?" Mu Xuanyin asked at the urging of her 'split personality'.

"It's actually kind of funny," Yun Wuji chuckled and shook his head. "The reason is that too many Dark Profound Practitioners are gathered in one place. If the Northern Divine Region's practitioners were to spread out to other regions, the concentration of Yin energy would decrease, and the Abyss would stop devouring it."

"But that's basically impossible right now. If they leave, the other Divine Regions will kill them on sight."

"..." Chi Wuyao listened silently.

"Of course, that's not the real issue here. Even if the Abyss spirals out of control and devours the Primal Chaos's energy, it's already stabilized for now," Yun Wuji said as he moved to the main topic. "The real problem is that the Abyss is on the verge of destruction, and once it collapses, the shockwave will reach us too."

"The destruction of an entire universe that's on a much higher level than ours, even if the aftershock doesn't completely obliterate our world, the devastation would still be catastrophic!"

"WHAT?!"

Every woman present, Mu Xuanyin, Luo Guxie, even Chi Wuyao, back in the Northern Divine Region, felt their blood turn to ice. This wasn't just another calamity; it was an existential threat, dwarfing even the destruction of the Primordial Era.

"I know this news is sudden and despairing, but don't panic. I also have a plan to deal with it," Yun Wuji smiled as he comforted them.

One could imagine the shock of telling someone who was just living a normal life that the world might end soon.

"Wuji, you really have a way out?" Mu Bingyun stared at Yun Wuji in disbelief, clutching his hand tightly with both of hers.

"Of course. Ever since I was born, I've been thinking about solving this calamity," Yun Wuji patted her cheek, reassuring her with a warm smile.

"..." The Phoenix and the Golden Crow exchanged complex glances. Other women might assume his phrase "since I was born" was just a figure of speech, but they knew he meant it literally. This man had been carrying the burden of saving this world from the moment he arrived in it.

No one truly knew how much responsibility he was carrying on his shoulders. He was a Saint, a man who dedicated his entire life to all living beings!

The two women felt endless admiration and pity for someone so young. They wanted to hold him in their arms and share some of that burden.

"Let me explain why the Abyss is collapsing first," Yun Wuji spoke again. "Back in the Primordial Era, after the Heretic God and the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor fell in love, they began to plan how to end the enmity between the two races."

"Their first step was to increase their strength. The two of them combined their power and created the Devil God Forbidden Tome. This profound art could give anyone who cultivated it heaven-defying strength. The Heretic God succeeded in cultivating it, and it became his core power. Unfortunately, the Heaven Smiting Devil Emperor failed to cultivate it, so at that time, only the Heretic God could wield the Devil God Forbidden Tome."

"With that strength in hand, the two began searching for opportunities to set their plan in motion. Coincidentally, Mo E's son, Mo Su, became the Heretic God's disciple. Under his deliberate guidance, Mo Su met Pan Xiaodie, the daughter of the Original Nether Devil Emperor."

"Both of them were the most talented youngsters of their generation, and after some time, the two of them fell in love."

"When Mo E learned of the news, he was furious and directly threw Mo Su into the Abyss of Nothingness. During the process, Pan Xiaodie was injured."

"But Mo Su didn't die like everyone thought. He survived in the Abyss, became its ruler, and used all his power to heal Pan Xiaodie. Unfortunately, he failed."

"In desperation, he used a Devil Artifact that could rival the Eternal Heaven Pearl in power, the Devil Pearl." Yun Wuji paused here, observing the stunned faces around him. The sheer volume of revelations had short-circuited their minds; their "CPUs" were overheating from processing it all.

He glanced deeply into Mu Xuanyin's eyes, as if he were staring at Chi Wuyao through her, then continued, "Mo Su used the Devil Pearl's power to completely stop time in a specific area, placing his lover inside to keep her alive. It was an admirable act of love. If I were in his shoes, I'd do the same."

"But the problem is, whether it's here or in the Abyss, the laws of the universe don't allow time to be completely frozen. It goes against the laws of the heavens!"

"And because of that act, the laws within the Abyss slowly began to crumble. Once they collapse completely, the Abyss will be destroyed... and that collapse could spread to the Primal Chaos itself, possibly dragging it down with it."

When he finished speaking, he looked at the women listening to him. But none of them moved. They stayed still for a long time, trying to recover from the shock. Even though Yun Wuji didn't explain everything in full detail, what he shared was enough to illuminate many mysteries of the past.

"Wuji, you called us all here because you already have a plan and need us, right?" Xia Qingyue was the first to recover from the overwhelming shock. She walked up to him, held his hand, and spoke softly, "Tell us what we need to do."

"My Qingyue is smart as ever." Yun Wuji pinched her cheek and chuckled, then swept his gaze over all the women present and said, "The first part of my plan is to conquer the Eastern Divine Region and take the Eternal Heaven Pearl."

"But to do that, even with your help, it's impossible as you are now," Yun Wuji looked at Mu Xuanyin, Luo Guxie, and Jasmine. "So the first thing we need to do is raise your strength."

Though they were all taken aback by his bold claim to conquer the Eastern Divine Region, it paled in comparison to what they'd just heard, so it didn't faze them as much. Jasmine arched an eyebrow and asked, "Increase our strength? How do you plan to do that?"

The Divine Master Realm was the peak of this world; each step forward in this realm demanded thousands, even tens of thousands of years, and vast resources. How could there be a way to boost their power so easily and quickly?

Yun Wuji naturally had his plans on how to help Jasmine and Luo Guxie reach the level of a God Emperor. He smiled and spoke, "I'm sure you've all heard of the Untamed World Pellet, right?"
