Chapter 637: Chapter 418: The Seven Ancestors_2

Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning pondered and said, "You should all have witnessed the origin of the Epoch. The ultimate of Darkness is Guang Ming, and the ultimate of death is rebirth."

The birth of an Epoch is a manifestation of breaking through the ultimate.

On the surface, the significance of the Epoch’s existence is the continuance of life and the legacy.

This response made all the Supremes tense.

The meaning of the Epoch, from a superficial view, is the continuance of life. Then, from a deeper level, what is the significance of existence?

At this moment, all the Supremes were waiting for the hidden Ancestor to provide a deeper answer.

The hidden Ancestor continued, "After reaching the pinnacle of the Epoch, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning also pondered over this question, but he found no answer.

As for the cycle of the Epoch, it is a periodical cycle. Some say that when an Epoch reaches its zenith, it will face a harvest."

At this moment, another wave of shock surged in the hearts of all the Supremes.

Harvest!?

What are they then?

Are they fattened pigs and sheep, creatures kept in captivity?

Such a hypothesis was unbearable for them.

Moreover, those present were the pinnacle beings of the Epoch.

"There’s another hypothesis that there is a natural cycle and rotation of Epochs."

This theory was more acceptable to the Supremes.

But the cruelty of the previous statement had already made many Supremes speculate.

After all, the Epoch was already a survival of the fittest; the existence of the Epoch for the purpose of harvest was not impossible.

And those harvesters could very well be the Twisted Supremes or even the masters those madmen were trying to summon.

Of course, one must add the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning to that list.

"Beyond the Epoch, I have stepped foot." The hidden Ancestor continued, revealing another great secret, "Originally, I, along with the Ancestor, stepped out of the Dark Distortion and ventured deep into the Twisted Realm.

Although the Twisted Supremes existed at that time, they could not stop the Ancestor and me from joining forces before the calamitous force descended upon us.

Deep in the Twisted Realm, there lies an ancient castle, the lair of the Twisted Supreme.

Yet further in, there is always a defense we couldn’t penetrate. Even with the Ancestor and me working together, we could not break that barrier and thus, we stopped at the ancient castle."

The multitude looked at each other in dismay.

All harbored thoughts of exploring beyond the Twisted, but each attempt ended in failure.

The greatest challenge was solving the enigma of the Twisted Supremes.

And during the Origin Epoch, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning had already begun to explore the Twisted Realm, even attempting to break through the Dark Distortion.

Yet, even after breaching the defense of the Twisted Supremes, they returned without success.

This made many Supremes somewhat disappointed.

"You better not look beyond the Dark Distortion; seeing it will only lead to greater despair." Suddenly, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning said coldly.

The hidden Ancestor followed, "At the birth of the Origin Epoch, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning already existed, or rather, he was there even before the Origin Epoch.

I have also sought his origin, but have found nothing!"

This statement sent another wave of shock through the strong beings of the Epoch.

The Origin Epoch, the first of the eighteen Epochs and also the earliest existing one in the eighteen Epochs, was thus named for its origin.

The Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning existed even before the Origin Epoch?

Wasn’t it said that after the birth of the Origin Epoch, living beings began to appear?

To the words of the Ancestor, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning did not give any answer.

Instead, the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning changed the topic, "Ancestor, where is the Origin Pearl?"

The Origin Pearl!?

This term once again surprised the Supremes.

What is the Origin Pearl?

Why would the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning care so much about it?

Supreme of the Dao Realm said softly, "The Origin Pearl, rumored to be the premier chaos treasure of the Origin Epoch, is believed to transcend the rank of chaos treasures.

The Origin Pearl bears the core of the Origin Epoch and possesses infinite power.

There are even rumors that whoever obtains the Origin Pearl could create a new Epoch, but after the demise of the Origin Epoch, the whereabouts of the Origin Pearl became unknown."

At that moment, no one cared about how the Supreme of the Dao Realm came to know this information.

They only heard that the Origin Pearl could create an Epoch.

To create an Epoch, that must be something only the Great Path could accomplish, right!

"The Origin Pearl is within these ruins; whether you can find it depends on your abilities." The hidden Ancestor did not conceal anything and spoke openly.

He knew that the Ancestor of the Primordial Beginning came for the Origin Pearl and that it must be here, otherwise, he would not have personally driven his law form here.

"What needs to be said has been said; the Origin Epoch came into existence to leave opportunities for future Epochs to accumulate sufficient foundation to withstand the great calamity. When this mission completes, these ruins will dissipate, and so will I."

Upon saying this, the hidden Ancestor seemed utterly carefree.

The Origin Epoch has seen seventeen Epochs to date.

These are incredibly long years.

An Epoch is measured in countless eons.

After seventeen Epochs, he must have grown weary and tired.

After all, everyone could see that the hidden Ancestor possessed his own consciousness, enduring this endless solitude.

However, when the hidden Ancestor mentioned opportunities, all the strong beings’ eyes began to sparkle.

"In my Origin Epoch, the seven great Supremes, apart from the Ancestor’s legacy, which has not been left behind, the inheritances of all other Supremes remain. These opportunities include the Origin Pearl.

But I must remind you of one thing, as good as the origin is, you must see if you can bear it.

If you forcibly endure, you will die and your path will be extinguished!"

As soon as the words fell, the hidden Ancestor dissipated on the spot.
