I’m Actually a Cultivation Bigshot - Chapter 585

Chapter 585: The Forbidden Area, The Eldritchs

Everyone instantly listened attentively. Cultivator Junjun hurriedly said, “Tell us more.”

Taishang Elder finally felt relevant again. He did not delay. He said with a serious face, “In the Chaos, there are endless living beings and species. For example, Humans. We are weak, but we have limitless potential. We’ll be ground-breaking once we improve. But actually… Humans aren’t the species to rule the Chaos!”

“Humans are on top. Human bodies are the closest to Wisdom. Therefore, the potential is limitless. A lot of living beings have Human forms.”

Qin Zhongshan did not look surprised. He continued, “But, no one thinks Humans can rule the Chaos.”

Limitless potential was not equivalent to invincible.

The Chaos was far too mysterious and scary. Who dared to rule the Chaos?

Taishang Elder shook his head. He said, “What I want to say is, another species will rule the Chaos!”

“What?”

“Rule the Chaos? Seriously?”

“What species could it be? The Demons?”

Everyone was shocked. They were in disbelief.

‘If someone can rule the Chaos, they must be famous.’

Taishang Elder exclaimed, “The species name is the Eldritch!”

He paused. Then, he said, “This species is like the Beasts in the Chaos. They were born from the Chaos. They are naturally powerful and have more potential than Humans. They have been fated to rule the Chaos since birth!”

The Jade Emperor was dumbfounded. “How have we not heard of it?”

“Of course, you haven’t heard of it. This is a hidden piece of history that has been lost over time.” Taishang Elder sighed with sentimentality. He looked deep and mysterious.

Cultivator Junjun immediately rushed him, “Stop acting cool, hurry up and continue!”

Taishang Elder glanced at Cultivator Junjun. He said, “If you walk in a straight line in the Chaos, you will end up in the Chaos Ocean! In other words, the Chaos is surrounded by the Chaos Ocean!”

“The Chaos Ocean has another unpopular name. It’s called… The Forbidden Area!”

“The Forbidden Area?”

Everyone jolted slightly. Things instantly became tense.

They could tell Taishang Elder was telling the truth. Moreover… It was indeed extraordinary!

“I also got this news from a very ancient world.”

Taishang Elder said, “There aren’t a lot of people who know the truth. Plus, the old worlds were wiped out over the countless years. New worlds were born. They got lesser until barely anyone mentions it anymore.”

Goddess Nuwa pondered. She asked, “The Chaos Ocean is called the Forbidden Area. Is it because the Eldritchs live in the Chaos Ocean?”

“Right on, Goddess Nuwa!”

Taishang Elder nodded and continued, “According to history records, the Eldritchs will battle the Humans. Moreover, the Eldritchs once walked out from the Chaos Ocean to battle in the Chaos. Humans couldn’t’ win and they were mercilessly killed! The battle’s known as the Godly Punishment!”

“Yikes—”

Everyone gasped. They shivered from the bottom of their hearts.

Cultivator Junjun hurriedly asked, “Do you think it’s related to the expert?”

Taishang Elder nodded. “The most recent Godly Punishment occurred three million years ago. Back then, Humans had nine Realm Cultivators in the entire Chaos.”

He had to pause. He looked fearful and respectful. His voice was slightly trembling from excitement.

The others did not rush him. They all held their breaths. They felt as if they went back 3,000 000 years ago. They could imagine the majestic history.

Realm Cultivators were too unreal for them. There were no records of those Realm Cultivators. No one could imagine how powerful they were.

“Nine Realm Cultivators!”

Taishang Elder exclaimed with dazed eyes. “The Nine Human Elites were incredible. They fought in the battle of the Godly Punishment! That battle expanded the Chaos Ocean by three inches! It was the only time that Humans were able to fight back. They chased the Eldritchs into the Chaos Ocean!”

The Jade Emperor hurriedly asked, “Then what?”

“Who knows?”

Taishang Elder shook his head. “None of the Nine Elites return.”

Everyone felt their hearts sink. They instantly stopped talking.

“So… Do you think the expert’s one of the Nine Elites?” Qin Manyun covered her mouth with her hand.

Taishang Elder nodded and said, “I think it’s possible. After all, who can be so powerful apart from the Nine Elites? Also, the Nine Elites are incredibly talented. I don’t believe that they all died.”

Cultivator Junjun had an idea. He made a guess and said, “In that case, I’m afraid the expert pretends to be an ordinary man for a greater purpose.”

Bai Chen spoke up, “The expert created the Area of the Gods and gave us endless blessings. Is it because he’s training us to fight the Eldritchs?”

Everyone processed what they heard. They were filled with hate and fear toward the Eldritchs. They had much more respect for the expert.

…

Meanwhile, somewhere in the Chaos.

On a huge star.

Left Messenger landed on the star. Then, she walked fast. She was inside an antique temple in the blink of an eye.

The temple was creepy. There was no one around but the Left Messenger was frightened. She held her breath and kept her head low. She did not dare to look around.

She walked to a stone door and greeted, “I request to see the Minister. I have something to report.”

The stone door did not react. However, an irresistible force moved from within. Left Messenger could not resist it. She was instantly sucked into the stone door. She dizzily entered another realm.

The place was empty like a gloomy basement. The air around the place was twisted. It felt a bit unreal. The air was filled with Wisdom but it was very messy and complicated. They entangled and opposed each other.

She was very uncomfortable. Cultivating in that place would lead to self-destruction.

A muscular middle-aged man sat in the middle. He had jet-black armor on and was extremely serious. She did not dare to look at him.

Left Messenger carefully bowed and said, “Minister.”

The Minister looked at her. He said in an expressionless tone, “Did you fail the task I assigned?”

“I’m sorry for my incompetence. Please, forgive me, Minister.”

Left Messenger slightly trembled. She hurriedly knelt to the floor. Then, she said, “But, I failed because of a sudden factor. I can’t control it.”

The Minister calmly said, “Tell me in detail.”

Left Messenger immediately started to tell him what happened from the Xia Kingdom.

The entire main hall went horrifyingly silent.

A single drop of cold sweat dripped from Left Messenger’s forehead. Seconds passed like years for her. She was extremely nervous.

A while later, the Minister said, “Must be an old friend.”

He did not say that in a questioning tone.

Left Messenger did not dare to speak.

The Minister continued with a reminiscing tone, “Three million years ago, my capabilities were like yours.

“Back then, the Godly Punishment arrived. The powerful cultivators battled the Eldritchs. I don’t know what the Godly Punishment battle was like, but I know that the battle from three million years ago was the most exciting battle of all time!”

He muttered to himself, “Because, each of the Nine Elites were extremely amazing. They shone through the Chaos and caused the Eldritchs to flee!

“That battle shook the Chaos. It destroyed countless worlds. The blood of the Eldritchs rained down like water. I followed the Nine Elites into battle, and we went into the Chaos Ocean.”

Left Messenger was silent at the side. She wanted to ask what happened but she forced herself to stay quiet. She did not dare to speak…

The Minister fell into reminiscence. His eyes were glossy. He continued to say, “But, the Forbidden Area’s forbidden. While we made the Eldritchs pay, we were also attacked. The Eldritchs were too powerful and they had a secret weapon!

“Luckily, I didn’t die after the battle. It was miraculous, but… I was dying.

“Fortunately, there were four Elites nearby. They were severely injured. They could not move and they were basically dead.

“I crawled to them…and devoured them!”

Boom!

Left Messenger was mindblown and frightened. Her mind went blank.

It was too shocking.

She felt like she heard something she should not have heard. She felt as if she was going to die soon.

The Minister calmly said, “Don’t be scared. It’s not a big deal.”

However, Left Messenger was more frightened after hearing that.

“I knew it. Back then, the Elites were talented and amazing. They couldn’t have all died. They could revive through time.”

The Minister snickered, “It’s a shame that I’m stuck in a special condition. Otherwise, I would love to visit my old friend!”

Left Messenger shivered and asked, “Mi—Minister, I… What should we do next?”

The Minister replied, “Avoid conflict at all cost. Also, I’ll send someone new to accompany you since Right Messenger’s dead. Find three items for me!”

…

Meanwhile, at the Legendary Beast Sect.

A good-looking young man stood on the hill as the wind blew. Next to him was a jet-black Tiger with black wings. Its fur was as black as ink and its two fangs grew to its chin. The Tiger had shiny orange eyes, making it look extra fierce.

The young man petted the Black Tiger and frowned. He asked coldly, “So, those old folks won’t comply?”

A squared-face middle-aged man nodded nearby. He looked pissed off. “Those old folks said that changing the Sect Master’s important, so they rejected our offer.”

“Ugh!”

The young man scoffed. “They’re so stubborn. That Shi Tuqin isn’t dead, but she’s half-Demon now. Are they still counting on her?”

The middle-aged man said, “Yu, don’t rush. They’re only delaying time. Shi Tuqin’s clearly out of the way. You’re surely the next Sect Master!”

Shi Tuyu snickered coldly, “Dad, they’re scared that we’ll become too powerful. They don’t dare to make me the Sect Master! But… In the future, I’ll make them kneel and beg me to become their Sect Master!”

The middle-aged man looked menacing, too. He said, “The Ministry claims to be competent. We told them the whereabouts of Shi Tuqin on purpose but they let her escape. So ridiculous!”

Shi Tuyu asked, “Dad, I heard that Shi Tuqin was depressed and disappointed. She went to study. Is this true?”

“Indeed so.”

“Then we don’t have to worry anymore.” Shi Tuyu laughed. Then, he licked his lips. He said, “However, Shi Tuqin has the blood of the Sky Wing White Tiger in her body. Her blood is beneficial for my Black Tiger. I have to find a way to lure her out!”

…

At the four-part architecture.

Huff puff—

Blackie was sweating hard on the treadmill. He huffed with his tongue out but he looked very serious.

He walked around like an athletic model.

There was a lot of other gym equipment nearby.

On the other hand, Li Nianfan lifted the lid from the pot. He looked at the steam that came out of it. He smiled and said, “The dumplings are cooked. Daji, Fire Phoenix, hurry up and come over with your bowls.”

“Oh yeah, Blackie, too. Stop for a while and fetch your Dog bowl. Eating’s more important.”

He rushed Blackie to come over.

‘I wonder what’s wrong with this silly dog. Ever since Blackie came back, he insisted on training his body and told me to bring out my gym equipment. He’s been working out non-stop.’

Li Nianfan felt speechless at how sweaty Blackie was.

He guessed that Blackie still cared about what happened last time. ‘His fur’s gone and he was almost abducted. He would be a pot of dog meat if I hadn’t rescued him. No, wait, he’d be a turd by now.

‘Blackie was traumatized and wants to become stronger.

‘However… This trauma might have led to brain damage. Go cultivate if you want to become stronger. Why are you working out with gym equipment?’

Back then, Blackie hated working out. Li Nianfan used to force him to exercise. ‘What’s the use of working out?’

Li Nianfan felt like he should not traumatize Blackie any further, so he let him be.

Blackie immediately stopped when he heard Li Nianfan. He leaped off the treadmill and ran over with his dog bowl. “Master, give me more dumplings. I’m working out. I need the protein.”

Blackie used to be unmotivated in cultivation. He only wanted to be a simple dog with no worries. He had goals to become stronger. He wanted to fight back!

In other words, Blackie needed to fight the Ministry! He was not to be messed with!

“Fine.”

Li Nianfan laughed. He filled up the dog bowl. “Here you go. Xiao Bai will fill it up for you if you need more.”
