Ping!
A crisp sound echoed from his mind, and Chu Tiannan suddenly opened his eyes. He sat slumped on the bed, his face covered in cold sweat from the lingering fright.
Am I... resurrected?
Looking at the surroundings, although unfamiliar, Chu Tiannan understood that he was still alive, except that this was no longer the world he was familiar with.
I clearly made foolproof preparations; did I still fail the breakthrough in the end?
Why? Was he destined to never reach that step?
Being fellow Demon Dragon Sovereigns, why did it have to be him who perished?
Puzzled, unwilling, and other such emotions surged into his heart. Chu Tiannan gripped the bedsheets fiercely, yet appeared exceptionally powerless.
Ping.
Hearing another crisp sound ring through his mind once more, he turned his head to look, yet did not discover any source of the sound. Looking at his own body again, he felt incomparably astonished. Originally, he was the Demon Dragon Sovereign of the Origin World; now this weak body that could be killed with a single punch... what kind of scene was this setting up again?
He remembered that his name was Chu Tiannan, and as for this person-he scratched his head, vaguely feeling that although this body was extremely frail and not a demon dragon's body, a certain amount of memories did indeed still exist within it.
"What on earth is going on..." After calming down, Chu Tiannan began to carefully sort through the memories of this lifetime's owner.
It turned out that the owner of this body was also named Chu Tiannan, which meant that in reality, he of the Origin Continent had already perished, and now it was simply...
Borrowing a corpse to raise a soul.
Was it borrowing a corpse to raise a soul?
Chu Tiannan shook his head. Compared to borrowing a corpse to raise a soul, he was currently more like being reborn. He rubbed his temples, sorting out the chaotic memories in his mind. Now, in his memories, this place was not the familiar Origin Continent to him, but another place named Earth.
Unlike the prosperity and flourishing of multiple bloodlines and races on the Origin Continent, Earth had a single species dominating the house.
The name of this creature was humans.
Compared to them, humans were far too weak, but unlike them, because humans did not possess any exceptionally powerful external forces, they possessed extremely formidable brains. Because of this, the hot weapons that appeared in his memories also made even him unable to help feeling terrified.
Yet this Earth of the present was different from the prosperous Earth in his memories.
Because not long ago, a huge upheaval occurred on Earth: three Heavenly Pillars that descended from the heavens towered over the oceans, thereby triggering the arrival of the world's apocalypse.
As for the true source of the world's apocalypse, it originated from the animal enhancement brought by those three Heavenly Pillars. Animals that had been enhanced were called... Demon Beasts!
"So this world is called Earth..." At this moment, Chu Tiannan's originally dull black pupils transformed in an instant into starry eyes, within which bright and piercing divine lights flashed repeatedly.
Perhaps... my perishing was not a coincidence at all; if someone plotted against me in secret...
Right! Back then I made foolproof preparations, believing the probability of failure could be considered negligible, but I failed in the end. The people who accompanied me back then included companions who were fellow Demon Dragon Sovereigns... and...
Before Chu Tiannan could sort out all the matters, he suddenly felt a strong wave of palpitations.
Immediately afterwards, a violent roar resembling heaven-overturning and earth-flipping came from outside, causing the room to immediately shake violently and the earth to tremble. Chu Tiannan, who was completely unprepared, was heavily slammed against the wall.
He managed with difficulty to stand up, intending to leave, and opened the door looking somewhat disheveled. At that very moment, however, he suddenly stopped his steps.
He saw that outside the living room window, a pair of beastly eyes was staring right at him...
