Suddenly, a warm and soft hand slipped into his palm; the Yin Kang Clan's Heavenly Lady who saw this tried to calm him down and pump confidence back towards Zhong Yue.

Zhong Yue's heart felt weak; everything he had fought so hard for had collapsed in an instant. In the future, he had lost everything, his conquest and his life. He failed to save the humans from the abyss, failed to revive Fuxi and even Xin Huo died alongside with him.

It was a hopeless future.

"This is not the future."

At his side, the beautiful lady comforted, "If you lose hope now, then everything you saw just now will become your destined future! If you knew about the future long ago, you would have lost hope from the beginning. With that, you and I would have never met, we wouldn't have gotten married, you wouldn't have built an empire and become the future Heavenly Monarch."

Zhong Yue's eyes moved and his will returned back him, "You're saying that what we saw is not real?"

"I'm saying that it doesn't have to be."

Yin Fanxuan gave him a warm smile and said, "After all, the future is still the future, nothing is set in stone, and things are still going as how you planned. Am I wrong? It can be very scary and disappointing to know our future beforehand but will the wise Mister Yi be defeated by some mere images?"

Zhong Yue held onto Yin Fanxuan's palm firmly and said with a relaxed smile, "You're right. I was putting too much stock in the images. If the future is destined, then what's the point of working hard? We might as well sit there and wait for death. What's done is done but we can still alter the future! I won't let that be my end!"

Yin Fanxuan smiled and replied, "I won't buy it too! You've not defeated me yet so how is that possible...possible for me to have a closer relationship to you."

Zhong Yue burst out laughing, "Don't worry, I will definitely beat you and I will throw you onto my bed!"

Yin Fanxuan blushed and she rolled her eyes as the two had seemingly cleared the shadows on their mind.

But in truth, as Zhong Yue looked towards the outside, he was still very much feeling the pressure of what he saw.

Though Yin Fanxuan's words brought him some comfort, he was still puzzled by what was shown to him.

Did that mean that if he continued what he was doing right now, the scenes in the future would turn into reality?

But he was also unsure of what would happen if he changed his plans.

He knew that something must be done but what?

What should be done in order to alter the tragic future?

The scene outside the ship changed constantly and the timeline tangled together gradually; at certain times, a tip of the iceberg in their future was shown and at another time, they were shown their past, making it difficult for them to differentiate where the ship was heading towards, the past or the future?

"It's heading toward neither the future or the past."

Zhong Yue said out of nowhere, "It's heading towards The Impossible World, the Heaven Suppression Palace. The Impossible World should be a world that is independent of time, which is why we are seeing so many strange things on our journey."

"The Impossible World?"

Yin Fanxuan murmured in awe and she looked towards Heaven Suppression Palace which was now directly ahead of the ancient ship.

They were getting closer and closer towards the palace.

The scene outside of the ship was still changing and what was being shown now were prehistoric images that recorded things not known to the people and they quickly turned back to the future images, showing the future again.

Image after image flashed by and Zhong Yue suddenly saw something.

In that particular image, he saw an endless chaos where there was a fire ocean, seemingly the Jinwu Clan's sacred ground.

The Chaos Divine Turtle swam freely within the burning ocean and suddenly, a Chaos Divine Turtle got onto the land. Upon arriving at this universe, the Chaos Divine Turtle crawled for a few steps and it did not return to the chaos after turning into a living being.

Zhong Yue was stunned, The chaos beings got onto land? I remember Hundun once telling me that if they got onto land, they would become the universe's living beings just like us. From there, they would feel pain, anger, sadness, happiness, and other emotions and they will fall sick and die just like us.

However, if they could swim in time and travel from the start and end of time, did that mean that they know everything in the future entirely?

Who is he? When did he get onto the land?

Is this the future or the past?

Zhong Yue frowned; the time flow right now was still completely out of flux, preventing him from identifying the future and the past.

As the ship sailed closer towards the Heaven Suppression Hall, a image appeared. It was the image of the universe's creation; everywhere was filled with the chaotic elements of earth, fire, water, and wind; and slowly, the cosmic started creating and evolving the galaxies and the many lesser worlds.

The cosmic, however, was still entirely lifeless.

In the endless time, sometime later, an innate god was born within an innate sacred ground, thus, came the first life of this universe.

As he was born, the life force in the Chaos emerged, and sang and prayed for him.

They praised him for his power; he was the source of all life and the ruler of all innate celestial gods and innate demon gods.

Suddenly, this innate god stepped forward, and with that, the first step of all lives.

"Praise the Great Si Ming—" said the Chaotic Divine Turtle as they all prayed.
