There was a hint of threat in his words.
Long Chen asked doubtfully, "Did I hear wrong, Sacred Ancestor Dark Night?"
Even Voracious Wolf Star Ancestor was puzzled.
"You didn't hear wrong, Long Chen. I advise you not to try to fool me. There are only three of us here today. Others might fall for your tricks, but I won't. Hurry up and have your woman come out and break the curse. Otherwise, don't blame me for taking your life."
It seemed like he was serious.
Long Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He said, "Senior, you've really misunderstood. Right now, Lingxi is indeed only able to quell the effects of the curse. If she could break the curse, I would have long since asked her to break the curse of all the Ancestor Gods. After all, the myriad worlds are currently in the midst of a calamity. We want to break the curse more than anyone else. You want to make the curse on the origin of this world disappear, but the current us definitely can't do it."
Voracious Wolf Star Ancestor said, "I can attest to that."
In Long Chen's eyes, this Sacred Ancestor Dark Night was truly a weirdo. However, Long Chen understood that this was part of Long Chen's nature. The Sacred Ancestor was naturally suspicious of Long Chen's selfish motives.
As expected, the other party didn't believe Long Chen despite his words. His voice was extremely cold as he said through gritted teeth, "Do you still think I'm a fool? If you didn't have a secret, why would you have had Lingxi leave when the Ancestor Gods gathered a few days ago? I'm guessing that she can break the curse herself, but she needs to pay a certain price. Moreover, she can't break all the Ancestor Gods. You're afraid that your woman will die from exhaustion, so you don't dare to reveal it. Don't worry, I won't tell anyone if you help me break the curse."
Seeing how resolute and decisive he was, he must have believed his suspicions without a doubt. For such a person, even if Long Chen talked until his tongue was rotten, it would still be hard for the other party to believe him.
Long Chen wouldn't have bothered with the ninth era's Ancestral God, but since it was the eighth era's Ancestral God, Long Chen said, "Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye, I, Long Chen, am not the same kind of person as you. If I really have the means to break the curse, I won't retreat even if I have to tire myself to death for the sake of the myriad worlds. It's definitely not what you think it is. If there's nothing else, then I'll take my leave."
With that, he turned to leave. To tell the truth, the Creator Gods were powerful, but when it came to thinking, they were too petty, which disappointed Long Chen.
"If you dare to escape, don't blame me for destroying this Ravenous Wolf Star Ocean. Long Chen, don't you claim to be the protector of myriad worlds? If I destroy this Ravenous Wolf Star Ocean, do you still dare to leave?"
Long Chen didn't expect Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye to be so difficult to deal with. Not only was he being unreasonable, but he was also using the Starry Wolf Galaxy to threaten him.
"What right do you have to destroy my world?"
Starry Wolf Galaxy Ancestor was enraged. He'd helped Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye call Long Chen over, but now Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye was using his world to threaten Long Chen.
"Scram! A ninth era's Ancestral God dares to speak to me like this?"
Forefather Darknight casually waved his hand, causing the black cloth in his hand to fly out. This was his world essence, the 'Curtain of Darkness', to fly out, instantly wrapping around the nearby Star-Ancestor Voracious Wolf. It completely sealed him off, and even began to shrink. For a mighty Elder God of the ninth era to scream in agony within the 'Curtain of Darkness' was a testament to how powerful the Elder Gods of the eighth era were.
Long Chen said, "Enough, we'll deal with this ourselves. Don't involve others, and don't involve other worlds. If you want to cause trouble, I'll accompany you."
Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye had displayed the dark, shameless, and ruthless side of an Ancestral God. Even if Long Chen didn't leave, he still laughed coldly and tormented Starry Wolf Galaxy Ancestor Ke Ye, "We'll deal with this ourselves, Long Chen, who do you think you are? The Lord of Myriad Worlds, Protector of Myriad Worlds? You really don't know shame. The Ancestral Gods have returned, and there's no place for you in the myriad worlds. You insignificant thing, do you think you're high and mighty just because you told everyone the truth? I'll tell you right now, if you don't get that woman of yours to break my curse, don't even think about leaving. Starry Wolf Galaxy Ancestor and this world can forget about existing."
Long Chen was very calm. He had nothing else to say after listening to the Ancestral God's crazy words.
Truth be told, Long Chen was very angry.
When he told the truth, he'd been filled with hope for the Ancestral Gods. But the ensuing chaos had chilled his heart. The darkness and coldness of Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye's heart had pushed him to the limits of human nature.
At this point, there was no point in backing down.
Long Chen waved his hand, and all of his helpers appeared by his side. Mo Xiaolang, Kitten, Lingxi, Li Xuanji, Soyeon, Ancestor God Ling Su …
They were all in Long Chen's world, so they'd arrived very quickly.
"Samsara Reversal."
The instant Kitten appeared, Long Chen, who had recovered quite well, immediately used his own laws to envelop everything around him. Samsara Reversal. Through the reincarnation passageway, everyone instantly appeared far away from the Starry Wolf Galaxy.
Long Chen's intentions were very clear.
"You."
Sacred Ancestor Ke Ye had seen many things. He'd thought that Long Chen was prepared to compromise, but the young faces in front of him left him stunned for a moment. Then, he began to laugh maniacally.
"Are you guys planning on ganging up on me?"
He doubled over with laughter. He simply couldn't stop.
"A bunch of fools. You know that I'm the eighth era's Ancestral God. When I tried to fight the ninth era's Ancestral God, I was completely crushed. Do you really think that you can fight me just because you have more people?
"How laughable. Fine. You probably don't know how terrifying the eighth era's Ancestral God is. I'll show you today, so that you won't give up until you reach the yellow river.
"Remember, if you lose, you'll die. You need to know what to do."
He belonged to the darkness of night, and the darkness of space was where he excelled. Now, he seemed to have melded into the darkness, and everyone could see how terrifying he was.
"I'll return this piece of trash to you."
In the blink of an eye, the Curtain of Darkness was back in his hands. The Starry Wolf Star-Ancestor, who had been entangled by the Curtain of Darkness, had lost all of his flesh and blood. All that was left was his world essence, and he was clearly gravely injured.
Swoosh.
The Starry Wolf Star-Ancestor frantically fled in the direction of Long Chen. Long Chen had protected him within the Death Reign. This was the Starry Wolf Star-Ancestor's way of showing off his power.
"This is your fate. However, there are some among you who possess World Source Energy. Those who do not possess World Source Energy will meet their doom."
Forefather Darknight cackled darkly.
Whoosh.
The Curtain of Darkness in his hands expanded, and a wild wind sprang up, causing the Curtain of Darkness to flap loudly in the wind.
The enormous Curtain of Darkness seemed to merge with the darkness. Behind it, all of the surrounding darkness seemed to transform into a Curtain of Darkness that waved in the hands of Forefather Darknight.
"Who'll be the first?"
Long Chen discussed the matter for a moment. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties, he had Kitten, Soyeon, and Elder God Lingsu return, while Li Xuanji transformed into a yin devil and entered his body. She then joined forces with Lingxi and Mo Xiaolang.
"This is an Elder God of the eighth era. Be careful …."
From the way he'd dealt with the Starry Wolf Star-Ancestor, he knew just how terrifying Forefather Darknight was. This was going to be a difficult battle. He had to deal with such a sinister person, even at the risk of incurring the disgust of the Elder Gods of Primordial Chaos. Otherwise, once he was enraged, the Starry Wolf Star-Ancestor would truly be destroyed.
He didn't have to kill him, but he had to subdue him.
Whoosh.
"Darkness Corrosion."
Forefather Darknight laughed coldly as he activated the Curtain of Darkness. The surrounding darkness seemed to transform into an enormous beast that had fused with the world itself. It opened its enormous maw and tried to devour Long Chen and the others. Everything around it crumbled and rotted away ….
"Open an opening and charge out."
In reality, this was a set of rules created by the World's Source Energy. They had to break through the Curtain of Darkness in order to escape. After locking onto a target, Ling Xi, Long Chen, and Mo Xiaolang attacked at the same time.
"Purifying Lotus."
"Annihilation Dragonball."
Finally, Mo Xiaolang leveled up to the most terrifying form, the Blazing Sun.
With the Purifying World Lotus in front, the power of darkness could corrode everything, but it had to be purified by the Purifying World Lotus. In fact, when the Purifying World Lotus and the curtain of darkness clashed, even if the origin energy of the world was inferior to its opponent, the Purifying World Lotus still displayed a great effect.
Then, the Annihilation Dragonball and the Blazing Sun collided next to the Purifying Lotus. Terrifying rumbles rang out and destructive waves of air were formed. No matter how powerful the eighth era's Ancestral God was, the Curtain of Darkness was blown away by these three powers.
Boom! Boom!
Forefather Darknight retreated for a long time with the Curtain of Darkness.
"He's indeed the eighth era's Ancestral God, but … his World Origin is weaker than the most perfected Ancestral God," Long Chen whispered to the two beside him. Even so, they didn't dare to be careless.
"You two."
The fact that Forefather Darknight's first attack had been forced back was a huge blow to his pride. Given his personality, it was only natural for him to erupt with killing intent.
"You're in trouble. Even if you want to break my curse, I won't let you rest in peace."
Whoosh.
Forefather Darknight attacked once more, the World Origin draped itself over his body and enveloped him.
"Spectral Dance of the Night."
A single law caused the Curtain of Darkness to tremble, as if someone had appeared within it. When the Curtain of Darkness vanished, three identical Forefathers of Darknight appeared before them.
"When night falls, this place shall be my world …."
The voice pierced through their eardrums.
