Chapter 817 – Change

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

Theoretically, the people in this world would also have an equal position after Chen Heng suppressed the bloodline here. However, this was only the appearance.

In reality, due to the inertia of the past, even though the current noble had lost the power to suppress everything, the things they controlled were still completely different from ordinary people.

As nobles, they held more resources and authority, and even their physical qualities were much stronger. Although the bloodline power had diminished, it had not disappeared completely.

Under such circumstances, the physical qualities and lifespan of the bloodline nobles were still much more powerful than ordinary people’s. Even in terms of aptitude, a large proportion of nobles with extraordinary aptitude, around 80-90%. All the conditions were excellent.

Logically speaking, even with the arrival of a new world, the bloodline nobles should also stand out and become the ruler of this world under the new extraordinary system, maintaining the status of the past. However, the reality was not as expected.

No matter how good the theoretical data was, problems would eventually arise in practice. The bloodline nobles had various excellence compared to ordinary people, but it did not mean they could fully display such excellence. The most important factor was none other than subjectivity.

Whether a knight, a mage, or any other extraordinary system, they all had a remarkable characteristic— to endure a long training period. This training was destined to be long and arduous. The entire process was dull and tedious and could only be overcome with a firm will.

As for the path of the bloodline? All they needed to do was eat, drink, and have fun, and they would naturally become stronger with time. The difference between the two was obvious. Most of the bloodline noble had lived in a comfortable environment in the past.

Under such circumstances, it was impossible for them to become hardworking and work hard to pursue progress suddenly. Yet, on the other hand, ordinary civilians were completely different. A tough environment would give birth to a strong will.

In this world, ordinary people who could survive were destined to experience many hardships. They had already suffered enough in their lives. Nevertheless, they had a strong will. In the past, this will did not seem to be of much use. It could not help to put food on their table, nor could it make them die later when being attacked by swords.

However, at this moment, this would played the most crucial role. People who had been immersed in the darkness for a long time would resolutely seize a glimmer of light when they saw it and would never let it go easily. The nobles of the past era might have had all sorts of excellence that allowed them to have the upper hand in theory and still rule this era.

As for the mortals, they had nothing but their will. Yet, this ordinary will reversed everything and brought about an outcome no one had expected. In the entire Primogenitor World, transcendents began to rise one by one. The noble families bathed in the glory of the past were completely defeated. Again, this was something that no one had expected.

When the bloodline noble families lost their strength and faced the people starting to awaken, the bloodline nobles were shocked to discover that they were so weak. The rich resources and comfortable environment could not give them sufficient confidence. Instead, they were defeated by the commoners who had nothing.

In exploring the transcendent path, the commoners’ geniuses rose speedily, suppressing those who had stepped on their backs and bullied them in the past.

All of a sudden, the entire Primogenitor World began to stir up. The countries start to become unstable. In the Gilna Empire, massive rebellions rose and fell. The Gilna Royal Family, who had lost their strength, looked at the rising and falling rebellions. They wanted to suppress them, but they were powerless.

Opposite them was a rebel army formed by the common people. The strong ones among them were generally at the First Rank. Only the First Rank. In the past, even a bloodline noble with some power could easily suppress them, not to mention the royal family. However, this power was so strong that even the Gilna Royal Family felt ashamed.

The royal family that had ruled this world for many years was not all useless. On the contrary, some of them realized the changes in this world. Therefore, they began to do their best to develop the royal family’s armed forces and train Extraordinary Beings that belonged to the royal family.

In this way, to a certain extent, they could maintain the current situation and maintain the resistance against the uprising rebel army. However, as time passed, the Gilna Royal Family discovered that, to their horror, the commoners’ speed of enhancement was much faster than the royal families, despite not having noble bloodlines or sufficient resources.

Under such a situation, not all the royal families realized the changes and buckled up. Most noble families were still immersed in the glory of the past, unable to return to their senses. The resources that the Gilna Royal Family occupied were by no means limitless.

On the contrary, every Extraordinary Being from the commoners cherished the opportunity before them. They would desperately surge forward if there were the slightest chance, even if it meant death. In any case, their lives were already rotten, to begin with. So rather than continuing to struggle in the mortal world, fighting with all their might was better.

Even the three most powerful empires among the mortals were now in such a troublesome situation and were on the verge of collapse, not to mention the other weak countries. Moreover, some small countries might not have powerful bloodlines, and their foundations were not strong either. Therefore, they were defeated and completely wiped out when the situation changed.

Many old countries perished within the Primogenitor World territory, and new countries were established, standing strong in this world. Yet, of course, not all ancient countries were declining. Extraordinary Beings among the commoners did not appear or rebel out of sudden.

In fact, this required a long process. Due to the inertia of the past, when Extraordinary Beings among the commoners appeared one after another, their first reaction was not to oppose the past noble families but to actively stay closer to the past noble families and have a place within. This was what the ruler of the past countless years has played out.

There might be born rebels in this world, but most thoughts would not change so quickly. Even if they had power, most people’s first reaction would still be to integrate into the rules of the original world, not to fight against them.

If, at this time, the noble families could notice the emergence of a change in the situation, recognize the potential of these Extraordinary Beings, and actively absorb them into their system, then it was not necessarily impossible to maintain the original system. They could even obtain benefits using the current chaos.

However, there were not so many “if”s in this world. Faced with the newly born Extraordinary Rank, the first reaction of most nobles was to fear and strangle,not absorb. Thus, the bloody suppression began.

The Extraordinary Beings who possessed power were slaughtered one after another. Then, the world seemed to return to its original appearance within a short period. This also made the new Extraordinary Beings realize their position and destroyed the idea of leaning toward the old noble.

Thus, a series of vigorous changes began. The nobles who had carried out massacres in the past became the ones who were slaughtered instead. A violent and bloody change began.

The old nobles were utterly defeated in this battle. Even the Gilna Empire, which had a rich foundation and powerful strength, was almost defeated, not to mention those small countries. The change of royal authority and the exchange of power and class became especially obvious during this period. Yet, of course, this wasn’t the case everywhere.

The entire empire had long since changed within the Violet Empire owing to the preparations made by Chen Heng. Compared to other countries that started to suppress and massacre, the Violet Empire was the first to recruit Extraordinary Beings into their own countries, conferring the most powerful ones as noble families, giving them the status they deserved.

Besides that, the region where the Cardo Empire was located was also stable. In that place, other than the past Cardo Empire’s royal family, there was also a supernatural force— the church of the God of Shadows.

The God of Shadows spread his faith in this land in the past years and nurtured his priests. As a result, the priests became the new rulers when the bloodline went out of power, suppressing all chaos and firmly holding this country in their hands.

However, other than these two countries, most other countries were in chaos. Therefore, even though the Gilna Empire was still holding on, anyone could see that it was only a matter of time before it was defeated.

Chen Heng witnessed everything. He smiled out of happiness and did not care about the massacre.

‘Everything that had happened to this world was a drastic change, and change would inevitably kill people.’ This thought flashed through Chen Heng’s mind as he quietly observed everything.

At this moment, he was in a special space where Chen Heng had once come and participated in the trial— the Space of Origins.

Then, Chen Heng performed a Trial of Origins under the Silver Moon Primogenitor’s arrangement. As a result, he had obtained part of the Silver Moon Primogenitor’s authority. To put it bluntly, Chen Heng’s turning point in this world started from this place.

Now, Chen Heng had once again come to this place. Putting aside the various functions of this space, to Chen Heng, this place was the closest to the world consciousness. Thus, he had always been stationed here and never left easily during these years.

“It looks very lively outside…” A voice sounded from the side.

Then, a shadow appeared before Chen Heng and appeared in the form of an ordinary-looking middle-aged man. Nonetheless, this was only on the appearance, not the real body.

Most of the Divine Existence have real huge bodies and were rarely in human forms. His appearance at the moment was only for the convenience of communication.

“It’s been a long time, Mr. Chris…” Then, sensing the figure beside him, Chen Heng was not surprised at all and said directly with a smile, “Should I call you by your name or your previous title?”

“The title of the past has passed, and the authority that originally belonged to me has long fallen into your hands. So it’s better just to call me by my name.” Chris smiled and did not pay much attention to Chen Heng’s words.

When Chen Heng returned to the Space of Origins, he had keenly sensed an existence hidden within it. Chris was the existence that had sealed the Silver Moon Primogenitor and suppressed him in this Trial of Origins.

At that time, his power also affected the Silver Moon Primogenitor’s Heaven Artifact and frozen him in the Violet Empire. However, he finally met Chen Heng again after Chen Heng returned.

‘A primogenitor who has been dead for a long time ended up in this state…’ Chen Heng looked at Chris in front of him and sighed softly. This sigh was definitely from the bottom of his heart.

Before this, he had not been able to investigate, but now that he had looked at it again, he could easily discover Chris’ essence. Chris’ essence was the soul of a dead primogenitor. In other words, this was also a primogenitor, just that it was already dead, not the kind still in its prime.

To put it in layman’s terms, he was the previous generation primogenitor, where his authority had already been taken away by someone. He could be considered a former emperor who had lost his throne.

...

Such an existence should have fallen. Everything about a primogenitor was bound to authority. He would fall and never feel anything again when he lost his authority.

However, the Space of Origins was an exception. This was the place closest to the Primogenitor World. It was also where all Primogenitor World’s origins were located, possessing all sorts of unimaginable and terrifying powers.

Chris was here. To a certain extent, he avoided the ending of falling and still existed in this world. Nonetheless, he could only show his existence in this Space of Origins due to the limitations of the origins. Once he stepped out of this world, he would immediately disappear into nothingness and be eliminated by the world. This was Chris’ specialty.

“What do you think of the changes now?” Chen Heng looked at Chris and asked for his opinion.

“It’s a pretty good change.” Chris smiled and said, “To tell you the truth, I’ve been in this world for quite a long time. According to the calculation of the mortals, I’m afraid it has been at least several million years…

During these millions of years, I’ve witnessed primogenitors rise and fall one after another, the earth constantly changes, and the mortals reproduce and die, but I’ve never felt any changes.

Whether the primogenitors fall or advance, how many mortals reproduce, this world seems to be the same, never changed…”
