Is that a Wisp?

Chapter 1554 Secret of the Spirit Aberrants

"Is… is that a…"

"Wisp?"

Upon the 1st Generation God King's words, the eyes of all Gods from the first generation fell on Krune, expressing mixed feelings.

"Were there Wisps in the first generation?" Krune asked in surprise upon sensing their gazes.

"Of course…" Letting out a sigh, the 1st Generation God King's human form collapsed gradually, turning into an ethereal figure that hovered on the ground, looking somewhat similar to Krune but also different at the same time.

True Spirit!

The 1st Generation God King was a True Spirit. A moment later, hundreds of Gods converged upon Krune, turning into wisps one after another, shocking him.

"So…many wisps?" Krune was shocked, seeing that the gazes directed at him by the Wisp Gods were full of nostalgia.

"We were part of what was called the True Realm." The 1st Generation God King began to recount his past. "Only two races existed there, the True Spirits and the Wisps. It was by far the most peaceful realm, as you know. Both True Spirits and Wisps are kinda… blessed."

"Blessed?" Krune frowned at the words. After all, it could be said that True Spirits were blessed. But wisps? Not so.

After all, without attaining a certain cultivation base, the lifespan of a Wisp was only ten years.

"Yeah, wisps only lived for ten years normally." The 1st Generation God King nodded in agreement. "But, our realm was so rich that even by just playing around, the cultivation of wisps reached a high enough level to not worry about dying anytime soon."

"However, things were too peaceful back then as we had taken our peace for granted." He sighed before saying, "Everything changed once a place called the Battlefield Realm appeared."

"Battlefield Realm?" Krune muttered, noticing the expression of all the Wisp Gods change at the word, becoming one of sadness.

"It was a place created by the Primordial Beasts because they wanted entertainment from the place that they had created. Plus, the goal of the Battlefield Realm was to challenge the strongest realm of the time," the 1st Generation God King said calmly, staring at Krune…

"And that was us, the True Realm, one with 1378 Gods."

"1378 Gods?" Krune was shocked at the number, for it was terrifyingly high. It had to be noted that even the Mong Realm, the realm with the most number of Gods in their generation, only had 685 Gods, and even that was a terrifying number.

"That number came to bite back at us because of the Primordial Beast Chiefs." Sighing, the 1st Generation God King continued, "Immortals and Gods from all the realms poured into the True Realm using the Battlefield Realm as the gateway. We managed to push back the first wave of invaders out of the True Realm. Following that, the two sides fought in the Battlefield Realm."

"Three million years… the war went on for a goddamn three million years." The 1st Generation God King sighed in exhaustion. "At the end of it, the True Realm was no more. Our Realm was crippled and was unable to birth even a single wisp or True Spirit."

"Then…" Krune stared at the 1st Generation God King, wondering how they were defeated. After all, if he had the title as the God King, his strength should have been enough to do anything he pleased.

"I wasn't a God King back then. I was only a Primal God back then," the 1st Generation God King said.

Krune stared at the Wisp Gods before him in surprise. "Then these Gods are…?"

"They are all my seniors," The 1st Generation God King replied. "In the first generation, I was the last True Spirit God. And when I became one, I was the sole God among True Spirits."

"And…" He almost choked for a moment before suppressing his emotions. "Before our True Realm crumbled due to the damage it sustained, three Wisp Gods were alive. However, they were crippled by then. They made arrangements for my ascension and turned the True Realm Core into my God Seat, sacrificing themselves for the cause."

"Following that, I became a God and the sole survivor of the True Realm." He continued calmly after that. "I then charged into the Battlefield Realm and fought for the next million years, killing every single God in existence and continued to do so even after that."

Krune noticed countless Gods shuddering at his words. It was apparent that after he arrived at the Graveyard of Gods, the 1st Generation God King had tried to kill these Gods again, but upon seeing that they wouldn't die, he continued to beat them up for ages to appease his anger.

"Eventually, my strength grew to become on par with a Younger Generation Primordial Beast. It was when the Nine Chiefs joined hands to reset everything," he said. "After that, in the successive generations, word of either a True Spirit or a wisp never came. So, I feared that we were never created after that."

"Nine Chiefs?" Krune was shocked.

"Yes." The first-generation God King nodded, elaborating, "Kun Peng, Taotie, Tiangou, Qilin, Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, Black Turtle, and the Spirit Aberrant."

"Spirit Aberrant?" Krune's eyes lit up as he gradually understood things that puzzled him before. He then thought of something, asking the 1st Generation God King, "Do you know about the Spirit Aberrants?"

"A little, yeah." The 1st Generation God King nodded.

"Is it true that the Spirit Aberrants can access the memories of everyone from their past?" Krune asked.

"How do you know about that?" The 1st Generation God King was shocked before he nodded. "Yes, they can access the memories. The stronger they become, the greater the memories they can access."

"Why are they feared, though?" Krune asked something that puzzled him. After all, he could sense that it wasn't just the myriad races that feared the Spirit Aberrants, but it extended to the Primordial Beasts as well.

"It's because the Primordial Beasts don't just access memories of their ancestors," the 1st Generation God King stated calmly. "But, they also access the knowledge of comprehension that their ancestors had regarding the various laws."

Upon seeing Krune's shock, the 1st Generation God King nodded. "Yes, unlike the other Primordial Beast races, every single Spirit Aberrant had the guarantee of growing to the level of a Chief. And the Spirit Aberrant Chief was able to casually alter the structure of the Greater Universe as he pleased. With that said, he was as strong as three other Chiefs."

"Imagine there being hundreds of Chiefs…" The 1st Generation God King shuddered in response. "This was why the Primordial Beast Chiefs all ganged up on the Spirit Aberrants and annihilated them. But in doing so, they paid a sharp price."

"That's why the number of Primordial Beasts is only a few in the eighth generation. In the first generation, there were a million of them in total."
