Chapter 4 The First Resident
The first resident of the fourth floor was Aegel of the Blood of Blasphemy. After the original Godblood died, he was the only Calamity of the Blood of Blasphemy. However, he was now a prisoner of Wenwen.
He was bound tightly by chains, and his body was covered with dense, mysterious runes, making him look pathetic. But at this moment, he was smiling shamelessly.
A new cellmate had arrived, which was better than him suffering alone here.
Standing outside at this moment, with shining eyes, was Mo Gong, the demon from the black clothes, a complete pervert.
He would often come to bully Aegel for no reason, and sometimes he needed to hear the sound of Aegel being whipped to fall asleep.
Now that Yan Zu had arrived, and looked so tender and delicate, he would surely be very comfortable to bully. As long as Mo Gong paid more attention to Yan Zu, Aegel would be much more at ease.
When Wenwen arrived on the fourth floor, Mo Gong put away his shining eyes and turned into the darkness.
He knew Wenwen had something to ask, so he would come over to play after Wenwen finished asking his questions.
Yan Zu had been made uneasy by Mo Gong’s gaze before, so when Wenwen arrived, his expression was no longer as defiant as before.
Wenwen pressed his face against the bars of the cell, looking at Yan Zu with piercing eyes.
"You are different from many monsters I have captured. You come from the inner world, and your status is high enough that I can get a lot of information from you. I hope you can answer some of my questions."
"If I cannot answer your questions, what do you want to do?" Yan Zu asked curiously.
Wenwen tilted his head and said seriously, "Then, you will wish you knew everything."
"Alright, I'll try my best to satisfy you," Yan Zu said straightforwardly.
Unlike other Star Gods, he was a very 'sensible' fellow. The longer he lived, the less he wanted to die.
Now that he was under someone else's roof, if he didn't bow his head, he would be asking for trouble.
"How were you sealed back then, and what is this knife?"
Wenwen extended his hand, and the black saber appeared in his hand.
After combining with the black saber's shadow, Wenwen found that the black saber had become much more spiritual and liked to be close to him.
A powerful force was contained within this saber. The Blood River Sword, Wenwen's strongest weapon, could not compare to this black long saber.
"This, you don't even know?"
Yan Zu glanced at Wenwen in surprise, revealing a look of disdain.
The long saber in Wenwen's hand suddenly began to spin. Yan Zu's backside tightened, and he remembered the overwhelming feeling from before.
So, he immediately began to recount the entire process of his sealing, and the fact that this saber was the weapon of the black-robed man.
After listening, Wenwen fell into deep thought, looking at the long saber in his hand.
Firstly, the matter of obtaining the black-robed man's weapon made Wenwen sigh at the wonder of fate. His life had too many coincidences, and there was a force pulling him, making him constantly approach the black-robed man.
Wenwen was unsure if this approach was like a moth to a flame or a return to the source.
However, Wenwen was currently thinking about another matter: why did the black-robed man use his own weapon to suppress Yan Zu?
The containment facility could perfectly contain Yan Zu. The black-robed man's failure to use the containment facility was difficult to explain.
Unless... the containment facility did not exist at that time, or it was not in the hands of the black-robed man.
Yan Zu was sealed thousands of years ago, and the rise of the containment facility's power was much later than that. The most active period of the containment facility should have been one to two thousand years ago.
This meant that the containment facility appeared in this world after Yan Zu was sealed, and before two thousand years ago.
Wenwen did not know the specific time, as he was still lacking necessary information.
Several central administrators were in a state of fragmented memory, and some things they were unwilling to tell Wenwen.
Putting aside his thoughts, Wenwen looked at Yan Zu and continued to ask, "I am very interested in the inner world, please introduce it to me."
There were many monsters willing to talk about the inner world, but most of them had no useful information.
This was because the inner world was too vast for Wenwen to estimate, and information was scarce there. Many monsters only understood their immediate surroundings.
Only the gods from the inner world could truly understand the complete picture of the inner world.
"The inner world, hehe, this is just the arrogant name you humans give it," Yan Zu chuckled. "Its true name is - the Primordial Land!"
"The Primordial Land..." Wenwen softly uttered the words.
Yan Zu showed a proud expression and said in a chanting tone:
"It is the place of origin of the universe, the place of birth and end of all things, the source of infinite mystical power, the end of good and evil, the beginning of all life, the归宿 of all souls..."
"In the beginning, there was only the Primordial Land in the universe, and in the end, this universe will also only have the Primordial Land!"
Hiss, hiss, splutter, splutter...
Seeing Yan Zu getting more carried away, Wenwen made the black saber spin and plunged it into Yan Zu's body again, the black saber going in and the yellow filth coming out...
"Behave yourself, don't spout so many titles, say something practical."
Wenwen flicked his saber, and the filth on it dissipated. The blade vibrated softly, emitting a pleasant hum, and it seemed this saber enjoyed stabbing people.
After experiencing the overwhelming sensation again, Yan Zu became much more obedient. He dared not be disobedient.
"In the beginning, there was only the Primordial Land in the universe, with no light around, only infinite void."
"But the initial Primordial Land was too massive, and it kept collapsing. After collapsing to the extreme, a great explosion occurred."
"The explosion scattered the matter of the Primordial Land throughout the void, thus forming the universe you see now."
Wenwen licked his lips. Astronomers might be very interested in such matters, but he was more concerned with other things.
"Later, with the passage of long years, the Primordial Land gradually recovered and has now taken initial shape."
"At this time, the Primordial Land consists of a main continent with a square sky and round earth, surrounded by five sun stars and seven moon stars. Your world is like a tiny speck of dust compared to the Primordial Land."
"On the main continent live all races of the myriad realms, such as giants, dragon races, divine dragon races, elves, demons, geologists, bird races, scaled races, etc. 'Myriad' is a metaphorical number, meaning infinite. The number of races may even be more than the humans in your world."
"When I left, there was a species on the main continent called Homo Erectus Terror, who had good potential. This species is somewhat similar to your humans, but they are much stronger than you."
"Outside the main continent, countless stars dot the sky. These stars are not as brilliant as the seven sun stars of the main continent, but they are enough to create countless habitable zones around the main continent."
"In these habitable zones live various extraterrestrial species..."
