Chapter 910 - The Most Horrifying Catastrophe!

Translator: Noodletown Translations Editor: Noodletown Translations

The first thing that the viewers saw was a vast fertile land during the primeval time in the middle of Huaxia.

On the vast continent, about 800 feudatories occupied territories that dotted the land like chess pieces. Under the rule of four major feudatories, four grand ancient states stood in four directions to protect the nation.

Su Tianji and the others who watched the TV Series in a group and the elves in the Canglan City Shop felt as if they had entered a nation in the very distant past.

Regardless if it was the Golden Royal Palace engulfed in auspicious clouds and charming lights or the military and civil officials standing in rows before the white jade steps, everything told the viewers the radiant glory of this primeval nation.

“Wow-! Is this ancient Huaxia!?” Watching the TV Series next to Mr. Fang, Elf Girl Sala asked in amazement.

“Is it the legendary Huaxia where... Nuwa patched the sky and created humans, Hou Yi shot down suns, and the Great Yu conquered the flood?” Rowling also asked in surprise on the side.

Having played the Legend of Sword and Fairy and watched Journey to the West, they had found that the world named Huaxia was bigger and more complex than any world that they had known. Even if they studied each game carefully, they only understood the surface of it.

Now, they felt like they were standing in the middle of the legendary nation...

It was probably the legend in legends!

“You... what do you see?!” Kellybel stood behind them alone with sweat popping on her forehead due to impatience. She had the urge to pull the elves off their chairs so she could watch the TV Series. “Is it good?!”

“So magnificent... it’s hard to imagine that it’s a primeval nation...”

...

“This era seems to come right behind the Xia Dynasty built by King Great Yu...” In the Jiuhua City Shop, Shen Qingqing, a fan of stories, obviously was an expert in this field. “This era is probably considered the primeval times even for the people in Journey to the West.”

“Is it this ancient?!” Su Tianji and the others who watched the TV Series in a group looked at the ancient dynasty in amazement. Without comparison, they wouldn’t understand the meaning of this TV Series. But after playing all kinds of Xianxia-genre games and watching Journey to the West...

Thinking of an era even more ancient than the world in Journey to the West, they couldn’t find words to express their astonishment.

Journey to the West was a legend in itself. Then this... story should be a legend in the legends!

At this moment, like the Elf Queen, the Valkyrie in the Heavenly Realm could do nothing but look at the people who were watching Investiture of the Gods.

“What Huaxia? What primeval nation?! What are they watching?!” Valkyrie Isabela lay in the pool in puzzlement. “What’s so good about the stuff that they are watching? How come I can’t see it?!”

“Isn’t it just a human nation? What’s so good about it?” Black Dragon Gulth was also watching the TV Series. Not understanding the amazement of other viewers, he mumbled to himself.

Then, he continued to watch.

...

At this moment, inside the Golden Royal Palace, military and civil officials assembled, and Premier Shang Rong asked for King Zhou’s approval to offer incense to Nuwa to celebrate her birthday.

King Zhou asked, “What virtue and merits does Nuwa have? Why should I go with 10,000 carriages and offer incense to her?”

“This king!?” Not only Black Dragon Gulth, but the saint-level masters from different nations were stupefied.

Isn’t Nuwa a major goddess in the primeval times?! Could they ignore the major deities if the latter didn’t have virtue and merits!?

Everyone in the palace looked as if nothing was unusual.

“Is this still a human nation!?” Not only the viewers in the new shops in Canglan City and the East Continent, but those in the old shops also exclaimed in astonishment.

It was something unimaginable for the people like Mage Merlin who had stayed in a nation of faith.

At this moment, Shang Rong reported, “Goddess Nuwa has the virtues of a sage. When Gong Gong, the God of Water, crashed his head onto Buzhou Mountain and caused the sky to tip in the northwest and the earth to sink in the southeast, Nuwa collected five-colored stones to patch up the sky. It’s a great deed for people, and it’s natural for people to build shrines to worship her to show gratitude. Now, as Morning Song offers sacrifice to this fortuitous goddess, we will receive long-term prosperity and peace in all seasons with enough rain and mild winds and no disasters. She’s the main goddess who protects our nation and people with blessings. You Majesty, it’s your duty to offer incense to her!”

[TL Note: Morning Song was the Capital of the Shang Dynasty.]

...

At this moment, the story was uneventful. No one imagined that under the peaceful veneer, an extremely horrifying catastrophe involving Heaven, Earth, humans, and deities was brewing!

When the Heaven emitted murderous spirits, the stars would change positions. When the Earth emitted murderous spirits, dragons and snakes would fly out. When humans had murderous spirits, the Heaven and Earth would be turned upside-down!

The viewers watched as King Zou listened to the malicious officials’ suggestion of choosing imperial concubines. In order for Daji, who was a thousand-year-old fox that had transformed into a beauty, to enter the palace, King Zou tortured and killed people on blazing copper pillars, and Premier Shang Rong killed himself by smashing his head into a pillar in the Golden Royal Palace. The scenes became more and more horrifying. In the short two episodes, the viewers were filled with a feeling that a storm would come, and the grand hall would collapse.

This nation was so prosperous that it had the power to ignore primeval gods if the latter had no virtues or merits. It was probably the most radiant human nation that the viewers had ever seen, and one could call it a godly nation on Earth without exaggeration since it was that brilliant.

– But at this moment –

Before the viewers, this nation turned into the demons’ palace on Earth!

Demons danced and roared around in disguise, and demonic essence shot up high into the sky. Almost overnight, the Heaven and Earth were turned upside-down, and the mortal world was gradually turning into a realm for demons and ghosts.

“How can Su Daji be so vicious!?” The peace-loving elves huddled together and covered their eyes in fear when some people were tortured and killed after being tied onto blazing metal pillars.

“This King Zhou is also cruel and vicious...!” Right now, the viewers in the old shops regarded King Zhou as an evil demon.

Perhaps he was even more horrifying than the devil...

...

“Look! Isn’t he Pagoda-Bearer Devaraja Li Jing?!” In the old shop at Jiuhua City, the viewers had come to the part of Nata’s reincarnation.

Su Tianji, Shen Qingqing, and all the other people in the shop couldn’t believe what they saw.

Devaraja Li, who had fiercely battled with the Great Sage, Heaven’s Equal in Journey to the West, is just a small marshal in Chentang Fortress at this moment?!

This almost changed their understanding of the world.

How powerful is this human nation? It dares to let such an existence be one of its marshals?

“But... where’s the pagoda that he was always holding on his palm?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Is this the story before he became a god-!? A horrifying thought dawned on Su Tianji and others.

“Then, this dynasty...!!??”

...

The Heaven emitted murderous spirits. It was time for this dynasty to reach the end of its destiny. Like a withered leaf in the autumn, it floated down from the tree.

The Earth emitted murderous spirits. Dragons and snakes flew out, and demons appeared everywhere to make trouble in the mortal world, signaling the imminent catastrophe.

The humans emitted murderous spirits. As loyal and upright old officials were killed by King Zhou one after another, the entire mortal world was turned upside-down.

Heaven, Earth, and Humans... the three elements were all here. At this moment, the biggest catastrophe that had only previously existed in legends would come silently.

It would implicate Heaven, Earth, humans, deities, and the whole world... even the immortals and gods couldn’t stay out of it, let alone humans.

At this moment, everyone including Su Tianji and the others in the old shops and the masters in the new shops turned silent as they watched. They didn’t have a deep understanding of the situation yet, but intuitively, they felt a horror that they had never imagined before as an acute feeling of suppression from a huge catastrophe hit them.

In such a catastrophe and a screwed up human dynasty, what kind of a stunning legend would unfold at the hands of the countless grandmasters and the immortals who had lived as hermits in remote immortal mountains and seas?

At this thought, fear, excitement, shock, and other feelings mingled with each other as people’s minds trembled subconsciously.

These feelings and emotions had never been so intense before!

Watching such a vast mythical scroll, Su Tianji and others felt overwhelmed, thinking that their heads weren’t big enough to handle all this.
