The victor had been decided.
Long Chen naturally became the champion of this battle.
Of course, part of his victory was accomplished by Ancestor God Pangu.
However, at this time, no one remembered that Long Chen did not participate in the battle.
As for Ancestor God Pangu, although he did not participate in the battle, the Ancestral Gods of all worlds were no fools. They naturally knew that his strength was only below Long Chen and Hongjun.
Now, Long Chen was still the center of attention, receiving the recognition of Ancestor Nature and Great Dream Ancestor Heart, and even … pledging their loyalty.
That's right, this was actually a disguised form of loyalty.
However, Long Chen felt that this was a form of support, a relationship of friendship. If it wasn't for them supporting him, he would be nothing if they killed him now.
Therefore, in his heart, this was not a relationship of superior and subordinate, but a relationship of friendship.
Instantly, the ten Fourth Era Ancestral Gods spurred more Ancestral Gods to stand on Long Chen's side, supporting him to become the ruler of all worlds.
Naturally, there were people who strongly opposed it.
"The battle of the Fifth Era Ancestral Gods has ended. The strongest is Long Chen."
At this time, Chaos Ancestral God's voice attracted the crowd.
Then, he continued, "As for the battle between the Fourth Era Ancestral Gods …"
These few words made everyone extremely excited. Everyone thought that the fourth era's Primordial Ancestor God Ranking God Battle wouldn't happen at all, because the implications were too serious.
The Ancestral Gods looked at Chaos Ancestral God with anticipation. The Fourth Era Ancestral God Ranking Battle was the strongest in all worlds, they naturally hoped to see such a battle to determine the strongest in all worlds.
But unexpectedly, the Chaos Ancestral God smiled and said, "Because the implications are greater, I think that all the Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era would not want to participate in such a battle. Therefore, there will be no Ranking Battle of the Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era. We, the Myriad Worlds, are peaceful."
The Ranking God Battles ended here.
Upon hearing these words, the battle-hungry Elder Gods who had lost their memories felt slightly disappointed. This meant that there wouldn't be many more lively days like today in the Myriad Worlds.
However, there were many people who understood the situation. They had a keen sense of smell and sensed that the fourth era's Primordial Ancestor God had split into two because of Long Chen. The lively days of the myriad worlds had ended, but the cruel days had just begun.
"Anyway, let's congratulate Long Chen."
For a moment, everyone was overjoyed.
Long Chen could also sense that after this battle, the rift between the two sides had widened to an irreparable degree.
"In the face of a foreign enemy, the Chaotic Hole Ancestor and the others are still thinking about their own interests. How shameful!"
He looked at the group of Primordial Ancestor Gods of the Fourth Era, who were gathered together with unconcealable killing intent in their eyes. They were all rather terrifying. Even Demon Ancestor Chiyou was like a puppy beside them.
"Humph."
A cold snort exploded in Long Chen's ears.
The Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor and the others were about to leave.
Their departure might be the start of the war. In order to stop Long Chen, they would definitely not give up.
"Wait."
At this moment, Long Chen called out to them.
"Everyone, don't be in a hurry to leave. I have a few words to say."
Of course, Long Chen didn't seem to be targeting them. Instead, he was facing everyone. He said in a clear voice, "Everyone has seen my performance today. Although many Ancestor Gods are full of praise, there are also some who are suspicious of me. This is completely understandable."
Now that Long Chen was the core here, the Ancestor Gods all stayed behind to see what he had to say.
Long Chen continued, "They are suspicious of me because I have made progress that the Ancestor Gods don't have. I also have a future that even the Primordial Ancestor God of the Fourth Era can't compare to. If everything goes well, there will be a day when I stand at the peak of the myriad worlds and surpass the Primordial Ancestor God of the Fourth Era. According to everyone's understanding, this will definitely greatly affect the Ancestor God Alliance and destroy the balance of the myriad worlds. This will change the control of the myriad worlds from the joint decision of the Ancestor God Alliance to my personal control. If you understand it this way, it's normal … However, things aren't as simple as some Ancestor Gods think."
He was prepared to talk openly. This way, he might be able to avoid a meaningless civil war. The myriad worlds were already scarred, and another civil war would only make things worse.
At this time, the Ancestor Gods realized the seriousness of Long Chen's topic and didn't dare to say anything. As for the Chaotic Hole Ancestor and the others, they looked at each other in dismay. They didn't know what Long Chen was trying to say.
"Here, I will say two things. First, everyone knows that the Sky Devouring Race that destroyed the myriad worlds before the epoch hasn't been wiped out. We only stopped them from coming out, but that doesn't mean that they will remain silent forever. As long as they still exist, there will be a day when they break free from the seal and return to the myriad worlds. The power of the Sky Devouring Race has been displayed before the epoch. Think about it, even before the epoch, we weren't their match, let alone now. If internal conflicts arise among the Ancestor Gods of the myriad worlds because of me, and we might even kill each other, this will weaken the myriad worlds even more. When the Sky Devouring Race comes out, the myriad worlds will definitely perish. First, please don't be busy fighting amongst yourselves. Don't care about your own status and not the survival of the myriad worlds. This is a short-sighted move."
This point was referring to the Chaotic Hole Ancestor and the others.
In order to protect their own status, they were eager to get rid of Long Chen in order to be at ease.
After hearing this, it didn't seem to have much effect. The Chaotic Hole Ancestor and the others had heard these words countless times, but this time, they could only sneer.
On the other hand, the other Ancestor Gods vaguely felt something.
"Second point."
Long Chen continued, "The second point is my declaration. I, Long Chen, only seek to strengthen myself and protect the myriad worlds. I don't seek hegemony or harm others. My only goal is to defeat the invaders, completely wipe out the Sky Devouring Race, and bring glory to the myriad worlds. Therefore, I hereby swear that I will only control the Dragon Sacrificial Continent in the future. No matter how powerful I become, I will never harm the rights and interests of the other Ancestor Gods and their worlds, nor will I bully the weak. As for controlling the myriad worlds, that's even more ridiculous. I only want to build the Dragon Sacrificial Continent. You can all find out what kind of person I, Long Chen, am. Everyone is an Ancestor God, so you naturally have your own judgment. I know that some people have opinions about me growing stronger day by day, and even fear and panic, but I just want to say that there's no need for that."
Today, Long Chen made use of this opportunity to clearly state what he wanted to say.
He believed that most of the Ancestor Gods understood what he meant.
Long Chen, don't use your tricks anymore. We all know that you're very cunning. You're declaring so much just so that everyone will give you time to grow stronger. Once you're above the Ancestor God of the Fourth Era, you won't have the final say in the Myriad Realms. Strength is everything. You're the greatest ruler and the Myriad Realms are in your control. Don't talk about the Sky Devouring Clan anymore. We all know that that's just an excuse. You're afraid of death, so you're using the Sky Devouring Clan as a cover to protect yourself. The Sky Devouring Clan's conspiracy ended completely during the Doomsday War. Those people have been sealed for an era. Even if they're still alive, they won't have much power left. What's there to be afraid of? "
He and Long Chen opposed each and every one of them.
"Let's go."
Chaos Hole Ancestor and the others turned to leave. There were a total of nine Fourth Era Ancestor Gods. Perhaps what Demon Ancestor Chiyou said was what they said. They had already made up their minds, and it wasn't something that could be changed by a few words from Long Chen.
"Let's go."
Demon Ancestor Chiyou encouraged many Fifth Era Ancestor Gods to leave with Chaos Hole Ancestor. This action was very obvious. They were choosing sides, and it was very direct. The Ancestor Gods of the myriad worlds were divided into two groups.
"Let's go."
For a moment, many Ancestor Gods were shouting and encouraging others.
"The myriad worlds' Ancestor Gods are now divided."
Many Ancestor Gods sighed.
They couldn't leave, but they couldn't stay either.
Those who could leave required a lot of courage. They made it clear that they were on the Chaos Hole Ancestor's side, and their next goal was to target Long Chen. For a moment, about two thousand people left with Chaos Hole Ancestor.
There weren't many of them, and there were a thousand Destruction Ancestor Gods.
But in reality, the ratio of Sixth and Fifth Era Ancestor Gods was very high. Many of those who weren't willing to leave were Ninth and Eighth Era Ancestor Gods.
Although Long Chen's side was slightly stronger, it wasn't by much.
The myriad worlds' Ancestor Gods were indeed divided.
One left, and the other stayed. From then on, the civil war raged.
