The Gathering of Ancestor Gods of the Myriad Realms.
In the past, Long Chen dominated the Myriad Realms and was known as the Ancestor God, the Lord of the Myriad Realms. But in this gathering, he could only be regarded as an insignificant character.
His strength was only slightly stronger than the Ancestor Gods of the Ninth Era.
There were more than three thousand Ancestor Gods of the Eighth Era and above, close to four thousand. These were even more terrifying existences.
With Long Chen's identity, he was only qualified to appear at the periphery. After all, he was not an Ancestor God, and it was not convenient for him to get too close.
Looking around, all he could see were Ancestor Gods. The more powerful the Ancestor Gods, the more they would be at the core position. Those who were at the periphery were the Ancestor Gods of the Ninth Era.
Here, the Ancestor Gods of the Ninth Era could no longer overturn the heavens.
Tens of thousands of Ancestor Gods were moving.
The Ancestor Gods were also wary of each other, so they were scattered. Therefore, Long Chen was at the periphery, and his vision could cross a long distance to see the situation inside.
"There are about a thousand Ancestor Gods of the Eighth Era, close to two thousand. There are about a thousand Ancestor Gods of the Seventh Era, and further in, there are about three hundred Ancestor Gods of the Sixth Era, who are equivalent to Kitten at his peak. As for the Ancestor Gods of the Fifth Era, such as Ancestor God God of Sky Sword and Ancestor God Pangu, there are more than eighty …"
The stronger one was, the closer they could get to the core.
Even among the Ancestor Gods, the hierarchy was so strict.
"Of course, after so many years, the Ancestor Gods have weakened to a certain extent. Even the Chaos Ancestor Gods probably don't have the strength at their peak. But even so, this lineup is still quite terrifying. This lineup, together with the power of the Dragon Sacrifice Continent, actually lost to the Sky Swallowing Clan …"
How strong was the Sky Swallowing Clan before the Ninth Era?
Now that they had devoured ninety percent of the Myriad Realms, how strong would they be?
While Long Chen was silently lamenting in the corner, it was already time. In the core position, a total of more than ten Fourth Era Ancestral Gods were gathered in the most important position.
This was the first time Long Chen saw the Primordial War Ancestor, the Primordial Soul Ancestor from the Original Soul World, the Six Paths Ancient Ancestor from the Six Paths Reincarnation Realm, the Grandmist Ancestor and Fortune Ancestor God from the Grandmist World and Fortune World, and so on. As for the other eight new worlds' Ancestor Gods, it was Long Chen who had appeared and told them the truth. Thus, Long Chen recognized them.
By now, virtually all of the Elder Gods had arrived.
At the very center, the Fourth Era's Progenitor Gods were like blurry shadows that were hard to grasp. No one could enter their circle.
Not even the fifth era's Elder Gods had much of a say in this place.
At the periphery, they could only hear the Fourth Epoch's Primordial Ancestor Gods discussing. Sometimes, they didn't even know who was speaking.
"Everyone, since you've all come here, you naturally know what we've come here for. As such, we will not be long-winded."
"We have lost our memories and returned to this place. We are the Elder Gods who created this world. The living beings have told us the truth of karma. Over the past few days, we have done some digging into the Enemy and the curse. Basically, we can confirm that the Enemy definitely exists." This was the voice of the Elder God of Primordial Chaos.
Long Chen looked towards the depths of the Ancestral God. Within the area of the most powerful Elder God was a blinding light.
"Therefore, today, all Elder Gods have gathered here. The first order of business is for us to come to a consensus. First, let me ask all of you, is there anyone who doesn't believe in the existence of an enemy? In fact, you don't even believe in our identities or this world. After all, everything we know was told to us by others, while we ourselves are a complete blank. If anyone has any thoughts, just say it. You only need to state your reasons."
This was to give the Elder Gods time to prepare.
Long Chen's heart tightened. It would be best if all the Elder Gods believed him.
Following that, a few Elder Gods did indeed express that they didn't believe in the existence of an enemy. However, they couldn't give a clear reason.
"It definitely exists. What happened in the Tomb of Samsara really happened. All seven hundred of us can bear witness."
One of the Elder Gods from before stepped forward to testify. After he finished speaking, hundreds of Elder Gods immediately echoed his words.
"Alright, this is solid proof. That's why, from this moment onwards, all Elder Gods, even if it's for the sake of our own lives, must fight against the enemy. No one can be a traitor, because the enemy wants us to be destroyed. In that case, our only goal, and the first thing we must do, is to eradicate this curse."
One of the Fourth Epoch's Primordial Elder Gods said.
It seemed that they had already discussed this beforehand.
This outcome made Long Chen very happy. Although he wasn't able to participate in it, at least all the Elder Gods were united. This was all thanks to him and his companions. If not for what happened in the Tomb of Samsara, they wouldn't have believed it.
The Primordial Elder God said, "We must fight against the Enemy together. Does anyone have any objections? If not, and we discover that someone has deserted in the future, there will definitely be a terrible punishment. We won't destroy your World Essence, but we can seal you away for a trillion years."
No one said anything. This meant that a unified alliance had been established.
"We shall fight together for the sake of survival."
The many Elder Gods began to shout. Gradually, their voices formed a world-shaking sound wave that swept through the Myriad Worlds.
"Very good."
The most elite Elder Gods were very satisfied.
"Let's talk about the curse. Does anyone here have any idea how to break this curse? No matter who it is, if they succeed, they will be our greatest heroes."
Perhaps this was the most important goal today. They had to find someone who could break the curse. After all, this was the first step for the Creator Gods to fight against the Sky Swallowing Clan. If they couldn't break the curse, all the battles in the future would be empty talk. As long as the curse existed, all the Creator Gods would be slaves to the Sky Swallowing Clan, and the curse would be their shackles.
"Since they asked this, it's obvious that these Fourth Epoch's Primordial Elder Gods have no idea for now … This must be the curse of the Tenth Ancestor Dragon. It looks simple, but it's not going to be easy …"
Even now, no one knew what kind of curse it was.
Long Chen also hoped that someone could do it. But as far as the eye could see, it was silent for a long time. Everyone was looking at each other, but no one came out to fight. This was undoubtedly disappointing.
The Creator Gods gritted their teeth. Obviously, this first step, the most crucial step, couldn't be solved for now.
Deathly silence.
Such helplessness dampened the fighting spirit of the Ancestor Gods. Long Chen could do nothing about it. He knew that the Sky Swallowing Clan wasn't easy to deal with.
"It's alright. After today's meeting, everyone's first task is to think of a way to break the curse. We only have one chance. We must do it before the enemy attacks again. Otherwise, the consequences will be unimaginable."
"Yes."
Fortunately, the Creator Gods were calm enough.
At this time, it was probably time for them to disperse.
However, when one of the Fourth Epoch's Primordial Elder Gods announced for everyone to disperse, the Chaos Ancestor God suddenly interrupted.
To be honest, it was dangerous for the Ancestor Gods to gather together. Once the curse was triggered and they started fighting, it would be over.
Therefore, the meeting couldn't last too long.
But at this time, the Chaos Ancestor God's gaze pierced through the Ancestor Gods and instantly landed on Long Chen. It was a restraining gaze. Under this gaze, Long Chen couldn't move.
"Everyone, don't forget that when the curse went berserk, someone calmed it down."
As he spoke, Long Chen was pulled by a terrifying force. He instantly traversed a great distance and appeared in front of the Chaos Ancestor God. In front of Long Chen, the Chaos Ancestor God was one of the eyes. The nine-colored mist of the Chaos Nine-Colored Lotus was formed by the Chaos Element.
At this time, Long Chen was basically in the middle of a dozen Fourth Epoch's Primordial Elder Gods. Of course, he was also in the middle of all the Ancestor Gods. The pressure was immense.
"We meet again." The Chaos Ancestor God's gaze was naturally emotionless.
Long Chen calmed down. Now that he had regained his freedom, he looked around at the terrifying Elder Gods of the Fourth Era around him, and all of them recognized him. He calmed his heart, knowing that this was an opportunity for him to speak. He said, "Junior's name is Long Chen, a descendant of the infinite worlds. All of you are the ancestors who created this world, and all of you are my seniors and elders. Let me first bow to you to show my respect."
Then, he turned to the Chaos Ancestor God and said, "Senior Chaos, may I ask what you need me to do?"
The Ancestor Gods were very curious about Long Chen. They had heard many stories about this fellow over the past few days. It seemed that all the information they knew came from this fellow.
Therefore, everyone watched attentively.
To be able to remain calm under the gaze of tens of thousands of Ancestor Gods was a kind of heaven-defying courage.
The Chaos Ancestor God said indifferently, "First of all, I know that you have imprisoned more than a dozen Ancestor Gods. This is not something you should have done. Considering that they were indeed in the wrong, we will not punish you. However, you must quickly release them. If they dare to offend you again, we will punish them."
Long Chen did not think that they would care about this matter. However, they were the bosses now. Of course, it was not his turn to imprison the Ancestor Gods. After all, they were all seniors and it was not appropriate. Now that the situation was different, Long Chen was not worried that the Endless Stone Ancestors and the others would cause trouble.
Therefore, he simply let the dozen or so Ancestor Gods appear.
After the dozen or so Ancestor Gods appeared, they were about to explode. However, when they saw themselves in such an environment, they were instantly scared out of their wits. A single glance from the Fourth Epoch Ancestor Gods was enough to scare them.
"Scram."
The Chaos Ancestor God growled and let the dozen or so Ancestor Gods fly out to the outermost perimeter. Once there, there would naturally be someone to explain to them what had happened.
"Long Chen, it is time to get to the main topic."
"Alright."
The dozen or so Fourth Epoch Ancestor Gods approached and observed him. Long Chen's situation was indeed very strange.
