"Junior Long Chen offers greetings, Patriarch Penglai. Welcome back to Penglai Island, Patriarch."
Long Chen was very respectful. He landed in front of Patriarch Penglai, not daring to show any hostility. After all, Patriarch Penglai looked like a kind man, so this friendly approach would be more effective.
When he saw Patriarch Penglai, Long Chen was sure that the third Ancestral God had arrived.
He had no idea what was going on with the other two sides.
"Do you know me?" Patriarch Penglai's voice was mellow, amiable, and adorable, like a good-tempered old man.
"Of course I do. It's a long story. Ancestor, can I speak with you for a moment? I'll tell you everything from beginning to end."
Long Chen's tone was sincere and respectful. Besides, Patriarch Penglai had a lot of questions, so he nodded and said, "No problem."
With a slight wave of his hand, the immortal mist swirled, and he and Long Chen flew into the distance. Penglai Island was like a gem under their feet.
"Here, you can tell me in detail who I am, what happened, and why I am here."
Patriarch Penglai asked slowly, not in a hurry.
Meanwhile, Long Chen was dealing with the affairs of the other two sides.
Ancestral God Ling Su and Kitten had arrived in the Everlasting Star Ocean, but the so-called Patriarch Wuji did not exist. The only change in the entire Everlasting Star Ocean was the inexplicable death of the two God Emperors. One of them had sent a message before he died, but the Everlasting Star Ocean was still very peaceful, without any change.
"Boss, could there be a mistake? Maybe Patriarch Wuji did not appear at all?" Kitten asked.
"Impossible. No one in the infinite worlds would mess around, and the two God Emperors would not die for no reason. The possibility of Patriarch Wuji's appearance is quite high, but we can't think of any Ancestral God with common sense. It's very likely that he left as soon as he appeared. Susu, you search the vicinity and be on standby. Kitten, you go and help Xiao Lang."
Under Long Chen's arrangement, they made some changes. There was no news from Mo Xiaolang, but Long Chen would not be easy to deal with. Patriarch Penglai would be the easiest to deal with.
Long Chen believed that Patriarch Wuji had appeared.
However, although this guy was also blank, he was very frightening. As soon as he appeared, he killed two people silently and left. For Long Chen, escaping out of control would be the biggest trouble. Once they went to other worlds, they might start a massacre.
However, Patriarch Penglai's problem was right in front of him. After a while, Long Chen said, "Senior, you are Patriarch Penglai. The world under your feet is called Penglai Island, which is one of the ten thousand worlds in the whole great world. Countless years ago, ten thousand Ancestral Gods created ten thousand worlds, and you are the creator of Penglai Island. All the mountains, rivers, and lives here originated from you, and you are also the guardian of this world, which is connected to your flesh and blood."
"I see. No wonder I have such a familiar feeling …" Patriarch Penglai nodded. He had some confidence in his strength and identity. Hearing Long Chen's words, he was even more certain that Long Chen did not lie to him.
But Stone Ancestor was different. He did not believe anything Long Chen said.
"Then why did I suddenly appear today, and then lose all my memories?"
Long Chen took a deep breath. He could not tell him about the Sky-devouring Clan, so he said, "Senior, this involves the eternal mystery of the infinite worlds. It has been a hundred million years since the last Ancestral Gods of the infinite worlds existed. A hundred million years ago, all the Ancestral Gods of the infinite worlds disappeared, and since then, there has been no creator in the infinite worlds. Since then, we have almost forgotten about the existence of the Ancestral Gods of the infinite worlds. But recently, in a world called the Spirit Essence Star Ocean, their Ancestral God Spirit Essence reappeared in the same way as you, and when he appeared, he had no memories, just like you. I think no one in the infinite worlds knows why."
Patriarch Penglai nodded.
He could accept this explanation. If the Ancestral Gods of the infinite worlds had disappeared at the same time, it was normal that Long Chen did not know about it. After all, it had been a hundred million years.
"In that case, I am the second Elder God of the Myriad Worlds to be reborn."
Long Chen shook his head, "No. Previously, in a world called the Endless Cosmos Mountain, an Endless Stonestone Ancestor appeared. He had no memories, and perhaps he was influenced by some evil beings. The Endless Stonestone Ancestor didn't believe what we said, and wanted to destroy the 10,000 worlds, harming many innocent lives. In the end, Ancestor God Ling Su and I had no choice but to imprison him. Old Ancestor, we bear the responsibility of protecting all lives. Now that the Ancestor Gods of the 10,000 worlds have reappeared, and every one of them is extremely powerful, we hope that senior can understand us. We are also loyal, and hope that senior, since you created the world, you won't destroy the world and its living beings. All living beings are the same as us. Although they are weak, they have emotions, and they have goals …"
"You don't need to say more, I understand. Don't worry, I won't be like the Endless Stonestone Ancestor. Although I was a little confused when I appeared and killed some people, since this is my world, I created it, I won't hurt them again. After all, I can feel that I'm on a different level from them."
Long Chen was overjoyed that Patriarch Penglai could think this way. He said, "To be precise, senior, you are the ancestor and origin of all the living beings on this Penglai Island. It is because of you that they exist in the 10,000 worlds and have their origins."
Patriarch Penglai smiled in satisfaction and said, "Although I disappeared and reappeared again, and I know nothing about my past, it is indeed interesting to have such an identity. Don't worry."
He was a trustworthy person.
Long Chen was anxious about what had happened in the other two worlds. Since he had settled the matter here, he went straight to the point and said, "To tell you the truth, senior, when you descended, there seemed to be Ancestral Gods in the Wuji Star Ocean and the Cave of Myriad Snakes. Three of my companions and Ancestral God Ling Su went to the other two worlds. After all, we are worried that the Ancestral Gods with terrible power but blank minds will bring disaster to their worlds. So … you can actually come with me and see the other Ancestral Gods who suddenly appeared."
On the one hand, he could support Mo Xiaolang and the others. On the other hand, Long Chen did not completely trust Patriarch Penglai. Although he was basically fine, he could not be careless when it came to the lives of the common people.
"I understand what you're thinking, but it doesn't matter. I'll go with you."
He did not expect that although Patriarch Penglai had lost his memory, he was actually very smart and knew Long Chen's other purpose. This made Long Chen feel quite embarrassed.
Without another word, he opened the Death Realm Dragon Gate and invited Patriarch Penglai in. Then, he found the passageway to the Wuji Star Ocean. Right now, Ancestral God Ling Su was alone.
Upon arriving, Elder God Lingsu was in the middle of searching the surrounding area. She was startled when she saw an old man standing behind Long Chen. She stammered, "Y-you are Patriarch Penglai?"
"You are also a Creator Ancestral God, Ancestral God Ling Su."
Patriarch Penglai was very interested in her. After all, they were the same kind.
"That's me."
After a few glances at her, Patriarch Penglai could tell if Long Chen was telling the truth. In fact, Ancestral God Ling Su was still the same. She had no memory of her past.
"How is it?"
Long Chen looked around as well. Sure enough, there was no trace of Patriarch Penglai.
"I don't know. I haven't found any trace of him since we arrived."
At this moment, Patriarch Penglai wrinkled his nose and said, "He did appear, and he was someone similar to us. But he left as soon as he appeared. I smelled his scent, but I only know that he went in that direction …"
He pointed in a direction.
With his confirmation, Long Chen was even more certain. Things were urgent. He quickly discussed with the other Lords of Origin Worlds and deployed many experts in the direction Patriarch Penglai pointed. If Patriarch Penglai appeared, it would be best to find him as soon as possible. Now that they had Patriarch Penglai on their side, they would gain more benefits.
"Let's go to the other side first."
Just then, Long Chen received news that Mo Xiaolang, Kitten, and Soyeon had already begun fighting with Heavenly Demon Snake Ancestor.
The process went like this.
After Heavenly Demon Snake Ancestor conquered the Cave of Snakes, Mo Xiaolang and Kitten appeared. They basically told Heavenly Demon Snake Ancestor everything that Long Chen and Patriarch Penglai had said.
Sky Demon Snake Ancestor listened attentively and said, "So that's how it is. If there are only three Ancestor Gods and Ancestor Stone is still imprisoned by you, does that mean that if I kill you and Ling Su, I will be able to conquer the 10,000 worlds?"
Although she had no memories, she had a strong desire in her bones.
Mo Xiaolang and Kitten didn't know how to answer her. They could only analyze the pros and cons for her, saying that it was not a good idea and that the myriad worlds should prioritize the lives of all living beings.
Who would have thought that the Sky Demon Snake Ancestor would casually kill over a hundred million lives? He laughed coldly, "What's the point of creating these ants? Other than worshipping me and making me feel better, they don't seem to have any other use. Why do I have to prioritize their lives? The ten thousand worlds should prioritize my life. Oh right, my name is the Sky Demon Snake Ancestor right?"
At this point, coupled with the death of a hundred million lives, Mo Xiaolang couldn't hold back anymore. He had a strong feeling that Heavenly Demon Snake Ancestor was even more ferocious than Endless Stone Ancestor. She didn't even need anyone to guide her. Her nature was extremely evil.
Especially without the shackles of memories, she was even more fearless.
"You two are the strongest in the myriad worlds, huh? Looks like killing you two and then taking care of Ling Su is enough. Let's start with you two."
