Thousands of years ago there was a legend where the world was shrouded in darkness. Humans must live underground to avoid the wild animals that roam the land. In addition to threats from wild animals, threats from other races also haunt humans who incidentally have weak physical and abilities.
But one day a human was against the will of heaven that was outlined to him. He was without anyone's guidance trying to understand the world's DAO and that's when the path of world DAO quest and world defiance began. Or commonly known as the cultivation era.
The legend has happened thousands of years ago without anyone knowing exactly when it happened. However, it is said that in the pre-cultivation era, humans had to hide underground in fear all day long. Even to just look for food, they are required to look for it at night by hiding.
After humans began to learn how to cultivate gradually began to emerge powers that could compete with the beasts that ruled the surface. Apart from some strong figures that appear several other races also help humans to be able to survive on the surface. But the cost that humans have to pay to get help from other races is also not easy. This happened for thousands of years until humans finally got a solid footing on the surface of the world.
Shortly after humans gained their footing on the surface a very strong person emerged from the human faction due to the abundant resources on the surface of the world. He is called the first immortal of the human race, immortal Pratham. No one knows how strong Pratham is but for sure even the leaders of other races don't underestimate the immortal Pratham.
After the appearance of the human race's first immortal, more and more cultivators were able to reach the immortal cultivation level and humans had finally attained an equal position among the races around the world.
For a while, the world is filled with peace that exists between races around the world. But it didn't last long. The cause was the appearance of mythical beasts whose powers were even heaven-defying. His appearance brought disaster throughout the world causing all races in the world to suffer. Immortals from all races finally reached a consensus to work together to kill the mythical beast. No one knows how the battle will end but what is certain is that almost the entire world is in chaos due to the battle.
Heaven finally sent down its punishment to eradicate all life in the world, the Dao of heaven torn apart, laws against, chaos everywhere. The age of chaos has arrived.
But this is just an ancient legend handed down to today's generation. While at this time humans and several other races were still living well on the surface of the world, although there was still danger all around due to the wild beasts roaming around humans and other races could still defend themselves from the beasts attacks.
.Kacha
The sound of something breaking rang out in a cave filled with an aura of destruction on every side. The aura was so dense that even if an ordinary human were to come to this place they would feel depressed due to the chaotic energy around and run out of breath from suffocation. At that sound, dark clouds began to form over the forest filled with giant trees, carrying a destructive power that caused the surrounding beasts and beasts to run in all directions frantically.
The forest of chaos is also known as the battlefield of war. It is said that this forest used to be a place where immortals and mythical beasts fought. After thousands of years have passed, the battlefield has turned into a forest overgrown with greenery and shady trees. Perhaps because the energy of chaos affecting the life in this place caused some trees or animals to evolve into very dangerous. Even ordinary cultivators would not dare to casually roam the most dangerous forest in this entire world.
Meanwhile, dark clouds carrying oppression began to gather over the forest. In the dark cave and filled with chaos energy the sounds of something breaking were getting louder and louder.
Kacha, kacha, kacha. krrrttt, Duaaaar.
Suddenly a deafening sound of explosion resounded throughout the cave. Very bright light also shone on the very gloomy cave. At that moment, the dark cloud that carried oppression in the sky sent down a giant thunderbolt towards the forest and headed straight for the cave.
Duaaaar
The sound of heaven's punishment thunder resounded throughout the world making people confused by this. As that happened, cultivators all over the world felt that oppressive energy and simultaneously turned their heads in that direction. In their minds all they thought of 1 thing.
'What is it that can give rise to the suppression of heaven's will so terrible'
Some people are horrified by the suppression of the terrible will of the world, some are also very interested in things that can make heaven so furious. Some people hid out of fear, and many were curious and looked for where the source of the heavenly oppression was coming from.
Meanwhile in the cave that was the target of the heavenly law a crystal the size of an adult human stuck to the cave wall. The crystal looks strange because the black and white colors seem to form a harmony between heaven and earth, like a continuity that is interconnected with each other.
The light that shone from inside the cave was also generated from the black-colored part of the crystal. Right now the crystal was full of cracks all over the place that made it look like it could collapse at any moment.
Kacha
Cracks sounded again and the cracks in the crystal grew. Meanwhile, the cracks in the black and white crystals increased. The heavenly punishment lightning also struck again into the cave and targeted the black and white crystal. But just as the heavenly lightning was about to land on the crystal strange energy radiated from the white crystal and blocked the heavenly lightning.
As his will was challenged by the lightning crystals from the sky, the lightning struck stronger and stronger each time making those who saw it would be shocked beyond words. This happened for a while until finally, the white and black crystals broke into pieces.
As the crystal shattered there was a terrifying roar from the sky. Heaven's will seemed to roar furiously and the dark clouds grew even more visible for hundreds of thousands of kilometers. After the dark clouds gathered until the sky seemed to be about to collapse suddenly 7-colored lightning struck into the cave.
The cultivators were surprised by this result because the 7-colored lightning had only ever existed in the legends told by ancient people.
"What really happened that the lightning in the legend reappeared?"
"Did mythical beasts reappear?" Fear arose in the hearts of the ancestors of several sects and kingdoms in all races of the world.
Meanwhile, the situation inside the cave itself became completely chaotic. Because of the power brought by the 7-colored lightning, the cave was smashed into pieces, making the location where the lightning struck was revealed to the surface. The lightning struck for some time until it finally ran out of energy.
As the lightning began to dissipate, the clouds in the sky gradually dispersed and began to return to their original state. If there were people in this place, then they would probably be uncontrollably afraid to see the impact of the power of the lightning strike.
As the dust around the location of the strike began to subside at the midpoint of the strike, a human body was slowly revealed. He was wearing the very simple clothes of a Daoist. White with black upholstery. The man's eyes were also closed like he was asleep. Long gray hair seemed to show that the cruelty of time could not be resisted. The almost even wrinkled skin on his face was also a reminder that he was a living figure who knows how long.
But even though he looks like a 90-year-old grandfather. The strange aura he emits makes people wonder what he made. Because even though that person's appearance looked old, the aura that was emitted was filled with the aura of life instead of the aura of death. As the clouds of darkness completely disappeared from above the battlefield a hum that spread throughout the world was heard.
The elders who had already fallen asleep on the ground to reduce their lifespans in shock opened their eyes at this hum. Those old ghosts had the same thought in their minds after hearing this buzz.
'World and heavenly Dao are reconnected'
Some of the old ghosts were surprised and delighted, some felt shocked and fear, some were still confused and wondering how this could happen. For people who didn't understand the Dao of the world and the heavens, they ignored the buzz as it only lasted for a moment. But for those who understood that they frantically rose from their graves and immediately held a meeting with their juniors who carried on their legacy.
Meanwhile, the old man whose eyes were closed in the battlefield forest slowly opened his eyes. He sensed the presence of the Dao of the world and heaven starting to connect with each other and sensed a power he had almost forgotten about for a long time. The moment his eyes actually opened, he felt an extremely terrifying power explode from within his body.
At the same time, a terrifying pressure fell on him from the sky, but the old man just smiled and looked up, he then muttered.
"Hahaha what? You're going to suppress me? I knew your power would be exhausted the moment you launched that damn 7-colored lightning hahaha" His voice was slightly hoarse along with a sense of absolute superiority.
Before long the pressure coming towards him gradually lessened and disappeared completely. Seeing that heaven's will could not do anything to him the old man smiled and examined his body.
