It was as if the fierce battle between the Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era had ended.
Long Chen was undoubtedly the winner of this battle.
Of course, Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha was not injured at all, let alone killed. Currently, Long Chen was far from being able to kill him.
Under the witness of tens of thousands of people, the outcome of this game had been decided.
Now, all the Ancestral Gods were amazed by Long Chen, who had constantly surpassed the limits of everyone's imagination and created new miracles several times.
They all looked at Long Chen in shock.
Now, surrounded by nearly a hundred Ancestral Gods of the Fourth and Fifth Eras, Long Chen was scrutinizing Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha and the remaining eight Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era who opposed him.
While the two sides were still confronting each other, the momentum of Long Chen's side had already far surpassed that of the other side.
Perhaps from this moment on, Long Chen already had the capital to overwhelm his opponents. This capital was reflected in both his personal strength and his prestige in the Myriad Worlds.
Once upon a time, his status in the Myriad Worlds was just an insignificant Ancestral God of the Ninth Era.
Now, he was almost standing at the peak of the Myriad Worlds.
"Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha, I've successfully withstood all three attacks and cracked them. Not only am I not dead, but I'm also unscathed. I'm the winner of this battle, so in front of all the Ancestral Gods of the Myriad Worlds, you have to fulfill your promise and stay in the Divine Realm for a thousand years. If you can't do it, I'm afraid that all the living beings in the Myriad Worlds, even the most humble ants, will look down on you."
Long Chen said with a smile.
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha was facing the gazes of all the living beings in the Myriad Worlds.
He gritted his teeth, but there was nothing he could do. The battle with Long Chen had deeply subverted his worldview. Everything that had happened was a huge blow to him.
As a result, he didn't know what to say in the face of all the living beings and Long Chen.
The faces of the other eight Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era were extremely gloomy.
The Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor had been defeated, but he hadn't lost as badly as this time. Not only had he boosted Long Chen's prestige and made them lose face, but he had also caused them to lose one of their nine Ancestral Gods.
It would not be easy for Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha to come out under the public opinion of the various worlds. After all, even for the Ancestral God of the Fourth Era, face was very important.
"Me."
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha's eyes were blood-red.
"Let's go. Don't embarrass yourself here."
Out of the bunch, the one in the most vicious state was Common People's Emperor Ancestor. Although he wasn't the one who lost, he couldn't take it. His eyes were filled with killing intent.
"Alright."
The nine of them were rather carefree as they turned around and left. After all, today was an unimaginable defeat for them.
"Long Chen."
"The Lord of Myriad Worlds."
This title had returned, but this time it was shouted by the Ancestral Gods of the myriad worlds.
The thousands of Ancestral Gods present were fanatically supporting Long Chen. Obviously, apart from the Ancestral God of Destruction in the Second Era, the Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor and the other eight had become isolated.
It was difficult for the Ancestral Gods of the myriad worlds to see hope among the nine traitors. Now, they would rather believe that the death of Demonic Ancestor Chiyou had a lot to do with the nine Ancestral Gods.
…
"Damn it, you've completely disgraced us this time."
In the boundless starry sky, Common People's Emperor Ancestor was furious. His domineering battle aura swept out. Even though he was trying to suppress it, it still affected the surrounding Star Region and caused countless broken stars to shatter.
His target was Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha.
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha sneered and said, "Don't be a hindsight, okay? You know what I'm capable of. It's not like I haven't fought with you before. In the end, I even sacrificed my thousand-year fortune, but he still managed to break it. This is his strength and heaven-defying strength. It has nothing to do with me."
Unconvinced, Common People's Emperor Ancestor said, "Wasn't it your idea? At least we would be fine if we stayed in the Chaotic Hole Shaman Realm. Now, the balance has completely tilted in their favor. We've lost all the Ancestral Gods of the fifth era and all the living beings of the myriad worlds. We've become traitors. There are only nine of us left … No, you don't count anymore. There are only eight of us left."
"Common People's Emperor Ancestor, what do you mean by this? Do you not like me? Don't think that I have to be afraid of you just because I've used up my thousand-year fortune."
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha was also angry.
The two of them confronted each other.
"That's enough. We're already at a disadvantage, so it's better for us to stop arguing. Now is the time to think of a solution."
Sheji Demon Ancestor stepped forward and said.
"Long Chen is so heaven-defying, and now he has the support of all the gods, demons, and Ancestral Gods. What does it have to do with us? Why don't we all go back to our own worlds, face the wall for a thousand years, and beg for Long Chen's forgiveness?"
Of course, these were words spoken out of anger.
Among them, Common People's Emperor Ancestor was the most indignant.
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor said, "Don't be discouraged. This is just the beginning. It's not time to determine the winner yet. Why do you have to fight among yourselves now?"
Everyone looked at him. Among them, Divine Ancestor Kṣitigarbha said angrily, "How dare you speak? Your brilliant plan is to keep us in the Chaotic Hole Shaman Realm and make us protect you. It's a good idea, but you've wasted all our time."
"Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor, you killed his elders and eight of them. Among us, Long Chen won't let you off the most. We can lose, but you can't."
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor didn't feel any pressure at all. He smiled and said, "Don't be nervous. We are the Creator Ancestral Gods. He can't kill us. At most, he can just seal us up. It's just a matter of taking a nap."
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor's indifferent attitude made the Ancestral Gods look at him in disbelief. They had a feeling that the Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor was not such a person.
"Also, you've underestimated me. I do have a brilliant plan, and it's a brilliant plan. It's just that I'm still in the process of making the tools. Once I succeed, with your help, Long Chen will definitely die."
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor said confidently.
This made everyone speechless.
Common People's Emperor Ancestor still didn't believe him. He sneered and said, "Alright, you can continue to bluff. I'm going back to my Common People's Imperial Domain."
After saying that, he couldn't be bothered to say more. He turned around and left the team. To be honest, today's situation really made him feel wronged. He wanted to kill Long Chen, but he felt that these people had considered too much and were too conflicted. Therefore, he hadn't succeeded. He preferred to cut the Gordian knot with a sharp knife.
Common People's Emperor Ancestor left, but the others didn't.
Sheji Demon Ancestor said, "Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor, tell us the details so that we can be prepared. That way, we can trust you more and do our best."
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor carefully refused.
"Everyone, you must believe me. Once I tell you, this method will lose its effect."
Chaotic Hole Shaman Ancestor was very insistent. No matter how many times they emphasized it, he still wouldn't say it.
"I can only return to the God Realm for All Beings first. The rest is up to you."
Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha was also very regretful that he had lost today. Of course, he also knew that he was the most unsuitable person to fight today, because he could vaguely feel that Long Chen's rules were restraining him.
If it weren't for the restraining rules, even if he didn't die, it wouldn't have been so easy.
…
The undercurrents of the Myriad Worlds surged and became even more majestic.
The Ancestral Gods of the Myriad Worlds gradually dispersed. The ten Ancestral Gods of the Fourth Era were all smiling and congratulating Long Chen for turning the tide and getting through this crisis. They also had nothing to do, so they began to repair the destroyed array for Long Chen.
"Today, I gained a lot from the battle with Sacred Ancestor Kṣitigarbha. If I didn't happen to restrain him, fighting with the Ancestral God of the Fourth Era would still be extremely dangerous. I'm afraid I'll have to reach the Ancestral God Realm of the Fifth Era to be able to truly contend with him.
Therefore, Long Chen was very clear that the most important thing for him to do in the future was to reach the Ancestral God Realm of the Fifth Era first.
As for the origin of the five worlds, he wasn't sure yet. It might not necessarily be because of killing.
It might be because of time.
"Now that the Dragon Servants are gone, I just don't know where I can find the rest of the Ancestral Dragon's inheritance …"
This was Long Chen's current dilemma.
Just as he was meditating, suddenly, an unexpected person was using his divine will to communicate with Long Chen across countless distances and spaces.
"Long Chen, I'm the Sheji Demon Ancestor."
The Mountain Sheji Beast of the Demon Clan.
He was the host of a ranking battle of the Ancestral Gods. However, after the battle, he was tempted by the Black Hole Witch Ancestor and the others and joined their team. Since then, he had never returned.
Among the enemies, the Sheji Demon Ancestor was probably the one that Long Chen didn't dislike the least.
