The Era of Gods-Chapter 692: Before the Myriad Manifestation Ancestor Tomb
Lin Xiao clasped his hands and smiled,
"Rest assured, my lord."
His gaze dropped and his smiling face changed as he said in a deep voice,
"Shall we change locations?"
The Child of the Spirit Realm of the Soul Race also grinned with a wide smile,
"I was thinking the same!"
Lin Xiao laughed heartily and spoke to the mighty will above his head,
"I’ll be right back, please prepare to activate the Witchcraft Formation for me; I’ll be needing it shortly."
The Child of the Spirit Realm of the Soul Race sneered,
"No, you will never have the chance to use it again."
No sooner had he finished speaking than his figure flashed, transforming into a long streak of light that shot out of the city.
"We’ll see about that."
Lin Xiao also turned into a streak of white light and followed suit.
The massive face of the giant in the clouds turned to look outside the city, and soon, a thunderous boom resounded from outside, the clouds were pushed apart to form an enormous void, and a massive silhouette emerged from the clouds, standing between heaven and earth. A voice filled with immense shock roared through the skies,
"Second true body!"
An invisible force cleared the clouds revealing a Golden Titan standing between heaven and earth, with the floating City of the Cloud and Mist Giants resting at the Titan’s chest level.
Meanwhile, the Child of the Spirit Realm had already turned into an elementally shimmering form, with one flicker he was over ten kilometers away in the void. Before he could flicker a second time, he felt the void was restrained by a force beyond description. His elemental form shuddered as space quaked around him, but he remained utterly immobile.
He looked down in despair and saw a colossal Golden Huge Hand below him.
"Late-Stage Rank 8!"
At this moment, he regretted his earlier provocation. He had assumed that the stranger with an unfamiliar face must be a newly promoted Rank 7 from the Human Camp, only to find himself facing an unfamiliar late-stage Rank 8 powerhouse who has already formed his second true body.
He’d stumbled upon an insurmountable obstacle, and his life was the price to pay.
The disparity in strength was too great; no life-saving measures would work, and the nearest support wouldn’t arrive in time to save him.
He sighed heavily, mana in his chest began to surge, and a dangerously invisible ripple spread out from him.
The Tongtian Golden Titan looked down, its golden sculpture-like face showing a hint of mockery,
"Futile hope!"
The invisible power of time spread from the palm of the hand, and the Child of the Spirit Realm felt the chain reaction of self-destructive witchcraft inside him miraculously locking back into place one by one, the boiling strength unexpectedly started to cool down again.
"What is this!"
The shock in his heart was greater than when he had seen his opponent reveal their second true body—a sensation akin to time reversing... No...
"This is time reversing!"
A smirk appeared on his face as he slowly closed his eyes.
After ten seconds, a black hole appeared in the palm of the Golden Huge Hand and swallowed the no-longer-resisting Rank 7 Child of the Spirit Realm, and the Golden Giant God slowly turned into a phantom and disappeared.
Before long, turbulent energy burst forth from inside the City of the Cloud and Mist Giants, mixing with the strong spatial fluctuations to explode into a tidal wave-like aura that extended hundreds of miles away.
After a while, the massive face above the City of the Cloud and Mist Giants slowly surfaced, gazing in the direction where the teleportation fluctuations had disappeared, and after a long while, it seemed to mutter to itself,
"Record his name, he may come and go from the City of the Cloud and Mist Giants as he pleases."
Twenty years later, the Endless Void.
A void tide traversing millions of kilometers swept across the Endless Void, countless void creatures that lived in the void chasing the tide, moving from one area of the void to another.
This was the way of life for most void creatures, moving with the void tide without an end in sight.
Within this void tide, a massive void whale moved slowly to the periphery of the tide. Many predators living on the fringes of the tide, akin to piranhas, fixed their gaze on the void whale, swarming from all directions, constantly gnawing at the whale.
The several-kilometers-long colossal void whale leapt high, crashing hard into a turbulent patch of void energy, its massive form bringing terrifying momentum, a single thrust killing countless void predators.
But there were too many of these void predators, in the billions, and as one group died off, another swarmed in, endlessly.
The frantic hunt caused chaos in a small part of the void, attracting even more void predators to the confusion, creating greater disorder.
And at the center of this chaos, no one could see that inside the void whale was an independent space where the slumbering Lin Xiao was awoken by the commotion. His eyes opened slowly and immediately understood the situation external to their location. Looking down, he saw the beauty nestled in his arms and tenderly kissed Tishar’s smooth forehead.
Her delicate eyelids quivered slightly, and she opened them to reveal crystal-clear, perfect pupils. She too was instantly aware of the situation outside. In a soft voice, she asked,
"Have we arrived?"
He nodded,
"We’re almost there. Can you sense it?"
```
Tishar carefully sensed her surroundings and shook her head:
"I can’t release all of my perception, so I can’t sense the Myriad Manifestation Ancestor Tomb you’re talking about."
New n𝙤vel chapters are published on freeweɓnøvel.com.
"Can you sense the direction of the True Ming Ancestor then?"
"I can’t, but I know It’s not in this part of the void."
"That’s good!"
Lin Xiao sighed with relief. Once the Myriad Manifestation Ancestor Tomb was activated, its aura might leak out. Normally, most powerful beings wouldn’t detect it, but if there were any ancestors nearby, they would definitely notice.
At this point, Tishar said:
"Although I don’t know who the All-Embracing Progenitor is, if it were me, I wouldn’t allow any other ancestors to enter the tomb I left behind. Therefore, I won’t be able to provide you with the necessary help."
"No worries!"
Lin Xiao turned and embraced her slim waist, his fingers splayed wide and pressing into the exaggerated curves of her hips, pushing firmly to go even deeper. The beautiful woman in his arms immediately blushed:
"With my current strength, even True Ming’s disciples can’t do anything about me. And with you, this Myriad Images God Temple is no longer necessary for me. If it’s really too dangerous, I will give it up!"
Having two Ancestral Marks wouldn’t bring about a qualitative change, and after all, the Emperor of Myriad Forms had fallen. The Ancestral Marks he left behind couldn’t possibly be better than the Dream Ancestor Mark I currently possess.
And the Dream Ancestor Mark I have is not just a mark; I have also acquired the ancestor himself.
Is there anything more exhilarating than that?
There isn’t!
For the current Lin Xiao, the legacy of the Emperor of Myriad Forms that held the most value was no longer the Ancestor’s Mark, but the six Tomb Guardians with Powerful Divine Power remaining in the Myriad Images God Temple. However, he had to get the Emperor’s legacy to win the approval of the six Tomb Guardians, so he had to make this journey.
If it wasn’t necessary, he wouldn’t even bother coming.
In the next long period of time, she would need to re-enter her deep sleep. He positioned the beauty in his arms into an extremely shy posture, merging them even more closely, and began to wildly......
A week later, a Void whale that had been gnawed on by countless void predators until only its mangled corpse remained, was suddenly expanded by an invisible force. A shadow flew out from within and disappeared into the Void Storm.
Coming out of the Void whale, Lin Xiao appeared to be in high spirits, his mood even more cheerful, and he even had the mood to hum a little tune along the way.
Half a year later, after traversing tens of millions of kilometers of the void, he arrived in front of a blue orb suspended in the void.
"Is this the place?"
According to the coordinates left long ago by the Emperor of Myriad Forms, the Tomb of Myriad Gods was inside this world.
After flying around this blue world, he was surprised to find many red and black spots on the other side of the world. These spots gave him a bad feeling, as if a beautiful blue balloon had been tarnished with many mold spots.
He placed his hand on the World Crystal Wall, his will piercing into it. Before he had a chance to observe the interior of the world, he felt a chillingly cold will violently collide with his:
"Cleanse! Reap!"
"Cleanse! Reap!"
....
The repetitive and deadly voices echoed in Lin Xiao’s mind. At the same time, he sensed that at the moment of collision with the icy will, a special mark had been left on his own will.
Although he didn’t know what it was, from first contact, it didn’t seem like anything good. He immediately mobilized his powerful will to forcefully expel the special mark.
Only then did he have the time to observe the interior of the world, but the sight was highly unexpected.
This was a not very large world, just equivalent to a medium-sized one. The main body of the world was a continent, occupying two-thirds of the entire world, with the remaining third being ocean, further divided into several small sections by the continent.
This was a continent-based world, which did not match his expectation of a mainly oceanic world based on the blue World Crystal Wall.
Although the world wasn’t large, its energy level was quite high. Just with a cursory scan, he sensed several Rank 7 powerful auras and a large number of Rank 5 and 6 energy auras, indicating that this world had a unique civilization and power system.
But at this moment, the world had already fallen into war, or rather, it was under invasion from external forces.
In his observation, at the far edge of the northern part of the plane, a huge Mechanical Castle stood on the snowfield, with countless automatic combat machines being produced from within the castle, forming legions of mechanical troops marching in every direction of the world, launching a destructive attack on the creatures of this world.
Whether it was Humans, Other Races, or creatures, even plants like trees and weeds were being reaped by these mechanical legions.
Lin Xiao watched coldly as the machines passed by; trees were cut down and processed into neat blocks, weeds harvested and turned into solid blocks like tea cakes, and creatures killed and skinned and boned by cold machines.
Piles of fur were stacked up, blood collected, chunks of meat neatly piled up, bones crushed into powder, all separately processed into crude embryos and packed into boxes to be sent back to the Mechanical Castle.
The whole process was smooth and efficient, filled with a cruel beauty.
Of course, this scene didn’t cause much unease for Lin Xiao. He had seen far more cruel sights in his travels through many worlds; this was nothing to him.
However...
Just his luck, he discovered that the entrance to the Tomb of Myriad Gods seemed to be near that giant Mechanical Castle. Although it wasn’t right underneath the castle, it was close by, and there was a 100% chance he would be discovered if he tried to cross it.
He didn’t know whether others could enter the Ancestral Tomb after it opened, so to avoid trouble, he had to destroy that Mechanical Castle at all costs.
And also...
A strange smile appeared on Lin Xiao’s face; while scanning the world’s Resistance Force, he was pleasantly surprised to find a familiar figure.
