The Almighty Dragon General Chapter 6640-James fell silent.
He could not help but feel slightly offended by those remarks since he had defeated Yared earlier.
However, James could not deny that Yared was a competent cultivator to some extent.
Herodias looked at James. “In the past, the three major realms were at peace.
Those three realms were Zymurgy, Hokuwn, and the Tai Chi World.
“Zymurgy came to exist because of the vital energies. They are in charge of affairs related to the Heavenly Tribulations and Paths. They reward those who are kind and generous.
“On the other hand, Hokuwn was born from Zen. That place governs affairs relating to death, reincarnations, and souls. They punish those who commit sins.
“Finally, we have the Tai Chi World inhabited by living beings.
“We, living beings, spend our time trying to improve our cultivation. The kind cultivators may someday succeed in achieving their ambitions, whereas the evil cultivators may be annihilated at any moment.
“One’s life and encounters will be affected by karma and tribulations. There was no such thing as destined fates for the living beings.”
Herodias cast a glance at Yared and Yegor. “Those were the days when everyone followed the Law of Paths diligently. It was a peaceful time.”
Yegor heaved a deep breath. “Living beings back then were liberated yet dignified. Sadly, we can’t recreate a world like that now.”
James frowned. “What happened to make all of that change?”
“It’s all our fault.” Yared sounded annoyed. “Whether it’s the supreme beings from Zymurgy or the ancient gods born in Hokuwn, they don’t possess emotions, desires, or a specific appearance like US living beings.
“However, desires and emotions began to take form when more and more living beings tried to interfere with Zymurgy’s and Hokuwn’s affairs.
‘Take the Five Primal Evolutions and the supreme beings from Zymurgy for example.
‘These beings were born from vital energies at first. They had no form or emotions. Yet, living beings gradually took over and held those positions.”
James drew a long breath as he listened to Yared.
With living beings holding those positions, it meant that emotions and desires now affected those who were in power. There was no way things would remain the same.
James could understand now why most superior cultivators he met in the past were extremely wary of living beings, especially humans.
Those men would even set near-impossible standards for humans. They would want humans to get rid of their emotions and desires consistently before training for their cultivation.
This probably had to do with living beings taking over positions not meant forthem.
James lifted his brows. “So, Zymurgy’s beings that now have emotions and desires came up with a plan? They were supposed to treat all beings equally, yet they turn these beings into their slaves and do whatever they want to them?”
“They didn’t go that far.” Herodias curled her lips. “As we said, only those with kind intentions and good karma could continue to pursue and improve their cultivation.
‘Those who managed to earn the positions in Zymurgy weren’t completely evil beings. They aim to control all living beings and the different worlds.
‘They want all beings to follow the path they have laid out for them. Naturally, this will inevitably involve the existence of Hokuwn.
‘Therefore, they made use of the admiration the living beings had for them and told everyone that Hokuwn was the Demonic Path.
“Morgott was once a ruler of Hokuwn.”
James was momentarily stunned. This explained why Morgott was extremely hostile toward Zymurgy’s supreme beings. He even killed the previous Tai Chi and Law of Paths.
James could not help but find those from Zymurgy shameless and unscrupulous. These men were willing to do anything to fulfill their desires.
He asked, “So, Yehria is doing whatever she wants to US because she knows about Zymurgy’s plans?”
“We’ll have to talk about the war with Morgott to answer your question.”
Herodias looked at Yared. “You met Morgott back then, Yared. You should know more than I do.”
Yared paused thoughtfully. Then, he nodded. “Morgott represents Hokuwn.
Zymurgy planned to slander those from Hokuwn so that they could gain control of all beings.
“Therefore, people of both realms became enemies.
‘Those from Zymurgy were afraid of Morgott’s powers. During the war, Tirta and Silver sacrificed themselves and sealed Morgott. However, those from Zymurgy also faced great losses due to the fierce battles.
“Morgott was originally a living being, a human in particular. He was not born from Zen.
“Since then, Zymurgy has blamed all living beings for what Morgott has done.”
Yared sighed, it was also since then that they changed the rules regarding tribulations and Paths.”
