A flash of white light swept past, and they entered what seemed like a spacetime tunnel. Even a Grand Unity Golden Immortal could not resist it. Heaven and earth changed, the sun and moon shifted, and when they appeared again, they were in a room, all of them lying on a large bed. In an instant, they opened their eyes...

In that very moment, everyone's expression changed drastically, and their fear could not be concealed. Their cultivation was almost completely gone, leaving them unable to unleash their power.

There were no so-called Heavenly Dao shackles, nor any restraints from heaven and earth. It seemed that all their divine abilities and spells could not be used even to one ten-thousandth of their former extent.

"I'm still a mighty cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing stage, yet I've been knocked down to the middle stage of Qi Refining in one stroke. It feels like my whole body is full of strength, but I can't bring it out. I'm truly powerless."

"Big brother... I'm a local, after all. Could you make an exception..."

Chen Xuan immediately began complaining...

"What are you shouting about? Cultivation will be suppressed in the later generations. This palace can only unleash two ten-thousandths of its strength. Isn't it perfectly normal for you to be suppressed?"

Great God Nuwa got out of bed beside them and stretched her muscles and bones. Sensing the oppression of the later generations, she wore an expression of genuine displeasure.

"How is this possible? I'm a member of the Wu Clan, and I cultivate my physical body. Why am I being suppressed too? I can only unleash one ten-thousandth..." Houtu was also stunned...

"So this is the later generations? As expected, it is the Age of Dharma's End. It is impossible to condense true great divine abilities."

After Fuxi opened his eyes, he kept looking around the small room. It was warm and cozy, yet suffocating, and even more unfamiliar.

Woof woof woof...

Big Yellow barked excitedly, spinning around in circles. He had finally returned to the later generations, a place where he could swagger around...

"Right... what exactly is this place? You can tell us now, right?" Houtu shot Chen Xuan a sideways glance. Nuwa and that fellow were both being mysterious, so they clearly were not good people.

"This palace will explain it to you!" Nuwa personally stepped forward to explain.

Chen Xuan went to the cabinet and took out his phone—a large Nokia N76 brick phone. It had cost four or five thousand yuan and had already been on standby for three days. He could not help but let out a sigh of relief...

"How is this possible? This is the later generations? No... I feel like my brain is growing. I need to sort this out." Houtu felt as if she had two heads and four thoughts, and was utterly shocked.

"Great God Nuwa... let's go outside!"

Chen Xuan walked out of the room. A burst of dazzling sunlight hit him. The air was somewhat polluted, making it difficult to cultivate divine abilities and spells. He could only faintly draw upon the thin spiritual energy between heaven and earth, as if he were suffocating.

No wonder this was the Age of Dharma's End. The spiritual energy had withered away...

It was around four in the afternoon. The sun was somewhat scorching, and everyone in Chen Family Village had gone out to work in the fields. Only a few people remained indoors, blowing electric fans. Rural life was simply that plain, noisy, and monotonous...

"The later generations actually became like this. Why exactly? There is none of the flourishing vitality of all things in the primordial world. It is simply inconceivable." Fuxi looked at everything around him and sighed deeply.

"I sense a faint sorrow between heaven and earth. It is as if the earth is crying and the sky is mourning. The Age of Dharma's End, the depletion of spiritual energy... The world Father God created should not be like this."

Houtu picked up a stone in the courtyard and gently crushed it to powder. She took a deep breath, looking somewhat sorrowful.

"Although I do not know why, this palace has thought of a solution. We can plant immortal roots in the later generations, restore the entire ecosystem, and bring about another Spiritual Energy Revival..."

Nuwa let out a soft sigh. The road ahead was long and arduous.

"Um... what if we don't restore it?" Chen Xuan was somewhat worried, yet also somewhat casual. After all, the Age of Dharma's End was only a little inconvenient for him personally. He could no longer fly through the sky, burrow into the earth, move mountains, or overturn seas.

As for the overall development of technology, he did not care much...

"I do not know for now. However, you people of the later generations have an imbalance in the five elements within your bodies and disorder between yin and yang. Your bodies are full of impurities, and you have lost your innate nature. In the future, all kinds of illnesses will invade you..."

Nuwa let out another soft sigh. Earth was ultimately too small, and was nothing like the true face of the primordial world.

"Not only that. I sense the world crying out in grief. There must be some unknown upheaval behind it. The mighty figures of the primordial world have vanished without a trace. It is truly strange..." Houtu's expression was grave.

According to the development of the primordial world, it had fallen step by step until it finally became the Age of Dharma's End. That period was so bizarre that Houtu could not accept it. This was the world Father God had created.

"Enough... don't think about it so much. First restore a little spiritual energy. Once your strength increases, you will probably learn about some of the changes in the later generations."

Fuxi personally sensed nature. It had become much more polluted, but perhaps that was not necessarily a completely new way of life.

Woof woof woof...

Big Yellow barked at the entrance...

Outside the main gate stood two farmers over fifty years old. They had returned with hoes and sickles, and at a glance saw Chen Xuan, two extraordinarily beautiful women, and a handsome man. They were far more stunning than any major celebrity.

"Son... what is this?" Mom Chen was dumbfounded. Her son had disappeared for several days, and now he had returned with several strangers.

"You little brat, you went out for several days without telling us what you were up to. You didn't even answer your phone. You've really pissed off your old man." Dad Chen cursed angrily. If there had not been outsiders present, he would have already chased Chen Xuan around with his hoe.

"Haha..." Chen Xuan scratched his head and said, "Something came up, so I went out for a while."

Mom Chen glanced twice at Great God Nuwa, Houtu, and Fuxi, then asked curiously, "Who are they?"

"They're all rich idiots from the city, Crown Prince party members. They came to the countryside to farm and experience life." Chen Xuan grinned as he began introducing everyone. "She's Wu Ping Xin, this one is Feng, and Feng Xi is the other fierce girl..."

"Oh..." Mom Chen's eyes lit up. "The city is great, the city is wonderful. In the future, you can go to the provincial capital to do business, live in a foreign-style house, raise an exotic dog, and hire a housekeeper with a whole group of maids. We have to treat them well. Hurry and go ask your Third Aunt whether she's selling her rooster. We'll slaughter it and serve it to them."

"Come, come, come..."

Mom Chen was extremely warm and hospitable. She personally led everyone into the house, boiled water and brewed tea, brought out a large pile of snacks and fruit, and turned on the television, which was showing the Hong Kong drama Investiture of the Gods.

"Wait... Mom! I just got back. Can't you let me rest for a while? I'm your biological son..." Chen Xuan looked unwilling.

"What are you dragging your feet for? Friends have come, so you have to treat them properly. Remember to go to the village grocery store and buy two jin of soy sauce, then bring back some baijiu. Your old man is going to have a drink today."

Dad Chen tapped his clueless son. How had he managed to give birth to this fool? With two such beautiful young ladies here, if he did not treat them well, how would they manage in the future?

In the hearts of the older couple, Great God Nuwa had long since become their daughter-in-law. They only hoped that Chen Xuan would be a little more ambitious, especially in front of his future brother-in-law, Fuxi.

Chen Xuan really wanted to tell them the truth. They actually dared to mistake the ancestor of humanity for their daughter-in-law. That was sheer wishful thinking, a fool's dream...

Helplessly, Chen Xuan went to his Third Aunt's house. She happened to be preparing to feed the chickens and pigs after returning home. She was one of the villagers who managed to earn the most, raising a large number of chickens, ducks, and pigs, and making several thousand yuan a year—enough to support the whole family...

"Third Aunt... guests have come to my house. How about selling me your rooster?" Chen Xuan called out from the doorway. She was his Third Uncle's wife, and his father's biological younger brother's wife.

"Oh... isn't this Little Xuanzi? Where have you been these past few days?" Third Aunt asked in surprise.

"I went into the city to see what would be good to plant. I've brought some friends from the city back with me. Come to my house for dinner later." Chen Xuan smiled.

"Sure... I'll give you the rooster. We'll rent all our land to you too. Your Third Aunt supports you. Let those ingrates in the village see whose younger generation is the most capable." Third Aunt agreed readily.

Some time ago, the entire village had torn up their contracts over the watermelons one after another. Third Aunt had been the first to support him, firmly refusing to break the contract. This favor was truly immense, and Chen Xuan had always kept it in mind.

"Don't worry, Third Aunt. Our family will make a fortune in the future. Then I'll have your son come back and help me farm. I'll find him a young lady from the city to marry."

Chen Xuan teased her.

"Stop joking around... Your son is working as a chef at some Prince Hotel in the city. I hear there are beauties everywhere and countless important people there every day. He won't possibly come back."

Third Aunt was very proud. She had a son who had studied cooking and, supposedly, was doing quite well, becoming the envy of many people in the village.

Some families with daughters had even come to ask whether they could become in-laws and support each other's development. Opening a food stall together in the future would not be bad either.

"The Prince Hotel? Well... that really is impressive." Chen Xuan nodded and continued, "Come over for dinner tonight. I'm leaving..."
