King of Gods

The explosion was like that of the origin of Destruction, devouring everything in the world. The entire Ziling Zone could feel intense tremors.

Zhao Feng’s current position couldn’t even be considered as being on the edge of the explosion, but he was still pushed back several thousand li by the shockwave. Without the Pseudo Ancestral Artifact’s defense, he would have had the skin torn off of his flesh.

Boooooom!

The power of the explosion seemed endless, and it continued to spread outward, unleashing a terrifying ancient and forbidden energy that devoured all.

”How terrifying!” Zhao Feng’s heart thumped in fear. A normal Third Heaven God Lord caught at the edge of the explosion would probably still have been killed. Just what happened in that battle between Gods?

As he was leaving, he sensed six God Eye energies, so he could guess that the Heaven Lord had probably been defeated.

On the other end, the Heaven’s Legacy Race members who had fled from the Divine Kingdom and the Life Sacred Land members who had pursued them were all shivering in fear.

It was fortunate that they had left the Divine Kingdom and were far away from the God battlefield, or else they really would have ended up as cannon fodder.

Of course, they had left quite a few members back in the Heaven Defying Faction Divine Kingdom, and since the Divine Kingdom was at the heart of the explosion, those people had already ceased to be a part of this world.

Kaboom!

The storm continued unabated for some time.

Near the center of the explosion:

”Cough, cough… that scoundrel, to think that he would detonate his Divine Kingdom and even burn his Origin energy….” With a disgruntled voice, a golden-robed elder appeared.

The Heaven Lord’s Origin energy was the power of the Ancient Race. One could easily imagine just how terrifying an explosion created from this kind of Divine Power could be. As for the Heaven Defying Faction Divine Kingdom, it was an enormous treasury containing many Heaven’s Legacy arrays, machines, and ancient bloodlines. It was difficult to imagine the power that was created by detonating all these things.

”How risky! That almost killed me!” A woman’s voice brimming with hatred spoke.

”Fortunately, we had your Samsara Immortal Bodies, or else we would have been in an even worse state….” The Death God’s figure gradually emerged, his face pale.

They were closer to the Heaven Lord during the explosion and were in grave peril. Fortunately, the Samsara God had used her many Samsara Immortal Bodies to block for them, neutralizing part of the explosion’s strength and buying them time to escape.

Even so, they had suffered severe injuries, their God Eye Origins damaged. After all, even before this explosion, they were already injured by the detonation of Ancestral Artifact Xingtian.

Not far behind them:

”I didn’t think that the three of you were still alive!” With this jeering comment, the Spacetime God and the other two Gods appeared.

The three of them seemed to be faring little better than their colleagues. Although the Spacetime God had the advantage of speed, he hadn’t managed to run very far, and the trio’s defensive measures were far inferior to the wall of flesh that the Samsara God could create.

”Heh, if you’re not dead, this old man definitely won’t go first!” The Destruction God coldly glared at the other group.

”Let’s go! He’s not dead yet. We must kill him!” The Divine Punishment God Eye grunted, and then he vanished in a streak of lightning.

The Spacetime God and Life God also moved out.

At the moment of the explosion, all six God Eyes sensed that the Heaven Lord had run away beforehand.

However, as he had burned up so much Origin energy to increase the power of the explosion, the Heaven Lord had lost half of his strength. And the Heaven Lord had not been able to completely avoid the explosion, so of course, he also suffered from the explosion of the Ancestral Artifact. Thus, the Heaven Lord was probably in an extremely weak state at this time.

The six God Eyes sensed the Heaven Lord’s extremely weak aura as he fled.

”Something’s not right.” A strange light gleamed in the Death God’s pitch-black eyes.

Their God Eyes told them that the Heaven Lord was truly extremely weak at this time. Any God could easily kill him. But the Divine Punishment God and Spacetime God were clearly heavily injured, with even their Origins damaged. However, without even waiting to be treated by the Life God, they impatiently ran off in pursuit. He found this extremely fishy.

”Are you not curious as to why the three of them are in such a rush to kill the Heaven Lord?” The Samsara God Eye gave a strange and alluring smile.

”Oh? What’s the secret?” The Destruction God’s expression twitched.

”I have Samsara Immortal Bodies in the Life Sacred Land’s army. Before the Divine Kingdom’s explosion, they managed to find out an astonishing secret in the Divine Kingdom: God Eye owners or God Eye descendants might be able to obtain the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye through killing the Heaven Lord!” the Samsara God explained.

The Heaven Lord could kill other God Eyes to obtain their God Eye Origins and take another step forward in his plan for the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye, but God Eye Deities could also kill the Heaven Lord to obtain the strength of the Heavenly Dao God Eye, and they might also be capable of realizing the same plan.

This also meant that the Heaven Lord was not the only one who could create the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye. Other people could as well, as long as they obtained the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye!

”What?” The Death God scowled, his pale and savage face turning sinister and frightening.

”The power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye!?” The Destruction God was also stunned.

If God Eyes like them killed the Heaven Lord and obtained his strength, just how strong would their God Eyes become? Although the Samsara God had not stated it, any fool could draw the lines and conclude that any God Eye Deity who obtained the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye would be able to continue the Heaven Lord’s plan and create the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye.

”I didn’t think that you would tell us of such an important thing!” The Death God eerily smiled, suspicion in his heart.

If it were him, he would conceal the fact and pursue the Heaven Lord on his own. After all, the Heaven Lord was currently extremely weak. Any God Eye Deity would be able to easily kill him.

”We’re part of the same camp, and besides, I’m no match for Life, Divine Punishment, and Spacetime by myself,” the Samsara God matter-of-factly said.

This was one reason. The other reason was that almost all the people who had remained in the Heaven Defying Faction Divine Kingdom came to learn of this fact, and then they almost immediately sent word back to the factions that they were working for.

For this war, many factions had chosen to assist the Life Sacred Land in beating back the Heaven Defying Faction. Thus, it probably wouldn’t be just one or two factions that knew of this information. And given the importance of this news, which was linked to the fate of the entire Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods, even if the Samsara God hadn’t said anything, it wouldn’t take long before the news spread through the realm.

Besides that, when it came to looking for someone, the Samsara God believed that no one else could compare to her.

”Let’s start moving! We can’t let them obtain that strength!” The Destruction God was impatient to get moving.

”Mm!” The Death God nodded.

Buzz! Bzzz!

The Samsara God’s eyes began to spin, releasing a yellow fog that came from the underworld. One figure after another emerged from within, several thousand people in all.

Of course, the majority of these people did not have very high cultivations. Those of higher cultivations had all sacrificed themselves to block the Heaven Lord’s explosion, and they could not be revived for some time.

”Go, track that person down! If you find anything, inform me immediately!” After doing this, the Samsara God took her leave.

The other two Gods also began to move out.

On the surface, the three God Eyes were still part of the same faction, but in reality, they were on their own now, because if any one of them obtained the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye, they could stand at the peak of God Eyes, looking down arrogantly upon the entire realm, and they even had a chance to obtain the supreme power of the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye.

The war between the Life Sacred Land and Heaven Defying Faction had finally come to an end, but its end started a whole new war – the war for the Heavenly Dao God Eye!

In the distance, Zhao Feng floated in the devastated void.

”A battle between Gods is just too terrifying!” Zhao Feng emotionally said.

Nearly half of the Ziling Zone had been affected by this battle, and this was a rather short battle that was fought across a rather small area. Otherwise, the entire Ziling Zone would have been destroyed.

”After offending the Eight Great God Eyes, the Heaven Defying Faction has finally been brought to an end!” Zhao Feng slightly exhaled in relief.

But for some reason, his Dream God Eye still seemed tense.

At this moment, Zhao Yufei sent him a message.

”What?” Zhao Feng grimaced.

Zhao Yufei was together with the Life Sacred Land army, and over there, the news about the other God Eye Deities fighting over the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye had already begun to spread.

”Even if the Heaven Lord was defeated, he’s still made the entire Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods uneasy.” Zhao Feng creased his brows.

The Heaven Lord was not dead, but he was weak and injured. The six God Eyes had already begun their pursuit.

”Kid, what’s the situation?” the crystalline robe asked.

The Heaven Defying Faction had been defeated and the Heaven Lord was fleeing for his life, but Zhao Feng still seemed rather worried.

”It’s not simple…” Zhao Feng gave a simple summary of the situation.

”To think that it would be like that!” The robe was stunned.

The current situation really was little better than before. Although the Heaven Lord had been defeated, any God Eye that obtained the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye would become a threat even greater than the Heaven Lord.

Of course, if an ordinary God Lord or God King obtained this energy, they wouldn’t be much of a threat, but there was also the possibility of it being seized from them too.

This was a struggle that would be difficult to predict and difficult to end unless the person who obtained the Heavenly Dao God Eye was able to resist the temptation of this power and destroyed it!

”Come on, let’s rest first.” Zhao Feng sighed.

This battle had been tiring enough.

”You’re not going to fight for the Heavenly Dao God Eye?” The robe was surprised. It didn’t believe that Zhao Feng wasn’t tempted by this power.

Zhao Feng truly did desire this power. Once he obtained it, his strength would soar, allowing him to contend with even God Eye Deities.

”I’m too weak to compare with the Eight Great God Eyes. Even if I obtained it, the other God Eyes would just hunt me down.” Zhao Feng shook his head.

That was the situation for now. And his hopes of finding someone alone compared to the vast networks of the God Eye Deities were simply too small.

”Let me break into the Third Heaven first,” Zhao Feng decided.

After successfully breaking through, if the matter of the Heavenly Dao God Eye had yet to be concluded, he might be able to participate then.

Zhao Feng found a secluded place in the Ziling Zone and entered his Divine Kingdom to begin cultivating.

In the outside world, the news was spreading from the Ziling Zone to all eighteen zones of the Ancient Desolate Realm of Gods. The struggle for the Heavenly Dao God Eye had begun!
