Chapter 319
🕑 Added 2024-10-14 04:00:01 +0000 UTC"Yes, Pope, what is going on?"
The other members of the Longshan family were also confused.
They had absolute trust in Lin Yuan, but just now, hundreds of divine avatars were about to arrive, and the destruction of the Longshan family seemed imminent.
Now there was no danger?
The change was too quick.
"What is going on?"
The Order Pope remained silent.
He kept replaying the scene in his mind where Lin Yuan lightly inhaled, causing all the figures in his palm to collapse and be absorbed into his mouth.
It must be noted, those figures were divine avatars. Some of them were avatars of higher gods, not weaker than ordinary true gods.
Yet they ended up like this.
The Order Pope was trembling internally, even feeling fortunate that he hadn't acted earlier. Otherwise, he might not be dead, but he would have been easily swept aside by Lin Yuan.
"How could the patriarch of Longshan be so powerful?" The Order Pope looked up at the sky.
Those stars hanging there represented the divine kingdoms of gods from the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness.
The number of gods was limited, so the divine kingdoms were also limited, and the stars in the sky were finite.
In this world, some demigods cautiously and secretly collected faith, perhaps evading the gods' perception.
But if one stepped further and achieved true godhood, elevating their divine kingdom, it couldn't be hidden.
The divine kingdom was too conspicuous, transforming into a star and hanging in the sky. The number was fixed, and any addition would attract the gods' attention.
However, in the past few centuries, or even a thousand years, there had been no new stars in the sky.
This meant no new gods had been born.
From this, it could be inferred that the patriarch of Longshan had not yet become a god, at least had not elevated a divine kingdom.
But without a divine kingdom, without the power of a divine kingdom, how could the patriarch of Longshan be so strong?
The Order Pope felt his understanding shattering. How could the patriarch of Longshan, who was not a god, kill gods as if they were ants?
The Order Pope calmed himself, collected his thoughts, and looked at the puzzled Longshan Ling and other core members of the Longshan family.
"The patriarch of Longshan is right."
"There is no longer any danger."
The Order Pope said with difficulty.
Danger?
All the danger had been consumed by the patriarch of Longshan.
"What?"
"Really no danger?"
Longshan Ling and the others breathed a sigh of relief but grew even more curious.
"Those divine avatars have all been dealt with by the patriarch of Longshan. Those figures in the patriarch's palm were the divine avatars."
The Order Pope remained silent for a moment, then patiently explained.
He had a premonition that after today, the name of the patriarch of Longshan would resound throughout the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness.
"Those things were divine avatars?"
Longshan Ling and the others were dumbfounded. "Divine avatars are that weak?"
They quickly realized.
It wasn't that the divine avatars were weak, but that their patriarch was too strong. Compared to their patriarch, the powerful divine avatars seemed weak and insignificant.
"I'm leaving now."
The Order Pope took one last deep look at the Longshan Hall and then turned to leave.
What he had witnessed was too unbelievable, and he needed to report it to the Order god immediately.
Actually, there was no need for him to report it. This matter couldn't be concealed. The true gods whose avatars were swallowed by Lin Yuan were already in an uproar.
This matter would spread among the gods at a terrifying speed, not limited to the Sea of Light.
Sea of Light.
In the winding palace.
Hundreds of true gods looked at each other, their hearts overflowing with shock.
"My divine avatar is dead."
"Mine too, I can't sense it anymore."
"The enormous face that appeared last, doesn't it resemble the patriarch of the Longshan family?"
"It isn't just similar, it must be the patriarch of the Longshan family."
The true gods felt chills. As eighth-rank true gods, their memories wouldn't be wrong. That enormous face, if shrunk billions of times, was the patriarch of the Longshan family.
Furthermore, their divine avatars were moved into a spatial cage on the way to hold the patriarch accountable at Longshan Ridge.
All clues pointed to one possibility.
The one who acted against them was the patriarch of the Longshan family.
The one they regarded as an ant, intending to burn his soul in the divine kingdom for ten thousand years, was just a demigod.
Honestly, the gods never took the patriarch of Longshan seriously, even if he was behind the disappearance of the demigods.
But a demigod was just a demigod.
No matter how powerful a demigod, without gathering faith and elevating a divine kingdom, was still an ant.
But now.
The ant in the gods' eyes had transformed into a celestial dragon?
"Impossible."
"Not a god yet, how could he be so strong?"
"Right, the patriarch of Longshan isn't even a true god. How could he be so powerful?"
Even with the evidence before them, some gods found it hard to believe.
They had endured countless trials and tribulations to elevate their divine kingdoms, enter the Sea of Light, and become gods revered by all.
And now this?
"I want to see the main god, to understand why the patriarch of Longshan is so powerful."
"Right, which main god should we see?"
"The god of Divination. There is nothing in the world he doesn't know. The god of Divination must know the origin of the patriarch of Longshan."
The true gods immediately set off.
Among the twelve main gods of the Sea of Light, the god of Divination was the most unique and the most amiable.
Other main gods, like the god of order, the Magic Net Goddess, the rainbow dragon god, etc., were almost perfectly rational, either in slumber or in seclusion.
Only the god of Divination occasionally provided guidance.
The gods had previously asked the god of Divination to trace the last known locations of the missing demigods.
Now it seemed this tracing was accurate. Given the patriarch of Longshan's strength, it was easy for him to abduct some demigods.
"The patriarch of Longshan must be a god who nearly fell in the distant past, whose divine kingdom fell to the human world."
A true god speculated.
In the distant past, many divine wars occurred, many gods fell, and their divine kingdoms fell to the human world.
But a fallen divine kingdom didn't necessarily mean death. As long as there were believers in the human world, the fallen god had a chance to return.
Of course, this chance was extremely slim, a mere theoretical possibility that had never actually happened.
But the patriarch of Longshan was so powerful that some gods couldn't help but think along these lines.
"Whether he is a fallen god or not, once we see the god of Divination, everything will be clear."
One true god responded.
They had absolute trust in the god of Divination.
Longshan Hall.
In the cultivation chamber.
Lin Yuan resumed his meditative posture.
"The taste of divine avatars is slightly better than pure 'divine crystals.'"
"Unfortunately, they are just avatars. If they were the true gods themselves, I could at least test the effect of the true god's core."
Lin Yuan felt a bit regretful.
With his current strength, there was no difference between divine avatars and true gods. The absolute spatial control brought by nearly 100M layers of space allowed Lin Yuan to crush any true god or even a main god at the spatial rank.
"But it won't be long."
"Once I comprehend the last bit of spatial essence in the demigod's core."
Lin Yuan thought to himself. To him, the spatial essence in the demigod's core was a reflection of the spatial essence of this world.
For example, a TV. Demigods only knew how to watch shows through this TV.
But Lin Yuan used the TV itself to deduce a complete modern industrial chain and thus comprehend modern industry.
Of course, the spatial essence of a world was infinitely more complex than an industrial chain, just an analogy.
The spatial essence corresponding to the demigod's core was foundational. Lin Yuan needed to fully comprehend it to more efficiently understand the spatial essence of the true god's core.
"Space."
In Lin Yuan's eyes, countless spatial layers appeared.
In his internal world, countless spatial layers rapidly unfolded, with new layers being born every moment.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Lin Yuan stopped comprehending and looked in a certain direction.
"Have you seen enough?" Lin Yuan muttered.
A gathering of invisible forces.
A tall, cold-eyed beautiful woman appeared.
The moment this woman appeared, the rules of the world seemed to retreat, and an aura surpassing true gods spread.
"The Magic Net Goddess?"
Lin Yuan looked at the beautiful woman without any surprise.
Who was the first to know about Lin Yuan's actions against the divine avatars?
Was it the true forms of the divine avatars in the Sea of Light? Or the Order Pope beside Lin Yuan?
Neither.
The first to sense the anomaly was the Magic Net Goddess, who enveloped the entire human world and was one of the twelve main gods of the Sea of Light.
Where the weave covered, was within the goddess's perception.
Lin Yuan acted against the church of lust and descended corelly because he was wary of the Magic Net Goddess, fearing that too strong a force would attract her attention.
"Patriarch of Longshan, what is your background?" The Magic Net Goddess looked at Lin Yuan with a hint of curiosity.
As a main god, overlooking all beings and gods, there were few things that could stir their emotions.
But Lin Yuan was undoubtedly one of them.
"You will know my background soon."
"I will corelly enter the Sea of Light, and I hope you main gods will not disappoint me."
Lin Yuan didn't bother communicating with these main gods. He raised his right hand, gathering the terrifying power of the world, sweeping everything away with multiple spatial layers.
The Magic Net Goddess before him, just an avatar condensed by the Magic Net in the human world, naturally couldn't withstand Lin Yuan's casual strike.
"Magic Net?"
Lin Yuan looked around, and with a slight thought, his own power spread in all directions, expelling the omnipresent Magic Net. As for the Longshan family members' communication without the Magic Net?
With Lin Yuan's strength, he could easily construct a new 'communication network' to replace the original Magic Net.
Sea of Light.
Numerous true gods gathered in front of the towering temple of the god of Divination.
The events they had just experienced had already spread among the gods. The emergence of a being in the human world comparable to a main god was hard to ignore.
So the true gods gathered here numbered far more than hundreds. At least eighty percent of the true gods in the Sea of Light had been drawn here.
Even from afar, the wills of main gods were observing.
At this moment, the temple doors opened.
The god of Divination, dressed in white robes, walked out.
"I already know your intentions." The god of Divination, an old man with white hair, spoke gently, his eyes kind.
"To uncover the origin of the patriarch of Longshan is not difficult." The god of Divination's tone was calm, but he too was curious.
Previously, he had only divined the last known location of the missing demigods, which was Longshan Ridge, and had not continued further.
He hadn't expected this matter to cause such a stir.
"Thank you, god of Divination."
"The god of Divination knows everything. The origin of the patriarch of Longshan will soon be clear to us."
The true gods were excited. The power displayed by the patriarch of Longshan, comparable to a main god, made them very curious about why he was in the human world.
"Then I will begin."
The god of Divination smiled slightly and silently recited the name of the patriarch of Longshan and the specific location of Longshan Ridge.
He then activated the divination power of the main god's core within him, using the world's rules to trace the true origin of the patriarch of Longshan.
Scenes began to appear before the god of Divination.
These were events that had occurred in Longshan Ridge in the past.
These events were displayed to the god of Divination in reverse chronological order.
A hundred years.
Two hundred years.
Three hundred years.
Four hundred years.
In an instant, the timeline reached four to five hundred years ago.
"What is his origin?" The god of Divination's expression showed slight anticipation.
Divination, in essence, was time. Using the main god's core of time within him, he could trace the past.
Thus, the god of Divination had the title of knowing everything.
After all, with enough time reversal, there were no secrets for the god of Divination.
Among the twelve main gods of the Sea of Light and the Abyss of Darkness, the god of Divination might not have the strongest combat power, but he was undoubtedly the hardest to kill.
By observing the past, the god of Divination had mastered countless life-saving methods.
Buzz.
Time continued to reverse.
When it reached a certain point.
The slowly reversing time came to a halt.
"Hmm?"
The god of Divination's expression changed slightly. He had never encountered such a situation before.
Someone could actually resist his time reversal.
The god of Divination quickly looked at the scene. The young patriarch of Longshan was lying on a bed, suddenly opening his eyes.
The next moment.
The reversing time seemed to touch something unfathomable.
The entire river of time began to ripple, and the god of Divination's face changed drastically. He clearly felt a backlash from the river of time, almost engulfing him.
Pfft.
The god of Divination's face turned as white as paper, his aura plummeting, and cracks appeared on the main god's core of time within him.
In the sky.
The giant star representing the god of Divination, which illuminated one-tenth of the sky, began to shake violently.
Wobbling.
