Lord of the Earth

"The Empress?"

Upon hearing this, A Zhu and the others couldn't help but look surprised.

Such a title is not something that ordinary people are qualified to possess... Could it be that the identities of these goddesses are clearly extraordinary!
"This must be the manifestation of the legendary Seven Fairy Maidens, daughters of the Heavenly Emperor?"

The knowledgeable Wang Yuyan pondered, a flash of understanding appearing in her eyes.

She carefully observed the seven graceful figures that were faintly visible in the moonlight. Their clothes fluttered, their postures were elegant, and light flowed between their fingers, as if they contained the ultimate truth of heaven and earth.

"Legend has it that in the ancient demon royal court, there was a true god named 'Di Jun' of the Golden Crow clan who was the emperor. He once gathered many alien races and called them the 'demon race,' and attempted to rule all the heavens, making the Golden Crow clan the 'supreme race' at that time..."

"However, later on, because the demon race became too numerous and unruly, even attempting to oppose some true gods... in the end, they were destroyed by the combined forces of the human race and the gods, and the human race replaced the Golden Crow race to become the number one among billions of races..."

Wang Yuyan's voice was clear and steady as she explained this ancient historical origin to everyone.

"Hmph, replace?"

The three-legged golden crow's voice was filled with deep-seated resentment, especially when it looked at the projections of the seven fairies; its eyes almost spit fire.

"The so-called 'Heavenly Emperor' of the human race is nothing but a puppet of the gods, and the so-called 'Supreme' race is nothing but a joke. How could the daughter of such a lowly race be qualified to be compared with my noble Golden Crow race!"

The reason is that the "Seven Fairy Maidens" by the Milky Way are the daughters of the Heavenly Emperor of the Human Race, while this three-legged golden crow is the son of the former Heavenly Emperor of the Demon Race, Di Jun. Their fathers were mortal enemies.

Now, within these ruins, there is a completely fateful opposition!

"Buzz!"

As the Golden Crow Emperor's son's rage surged, more divine blood flowed from his body, merging into the divine remains of the seven "Emperor's Son" level three-legged golden crows.

The latter's eyes burned with golden flames, and its body rapidly condensed in the firelight, actually growing back brilliant golden feathers, making it look as if it had been reborn!
The aura of supreme deities swept over us like a tsunami.

With the exception of Li Bai, who had one foot in the "Triple Heaven," the rest of the people in Qianxia were simply unable to resist head-on!

"Form ranks and hold your ground!"

Qin Liangyu made a decisive move, and the Bai Ze army formation changed again, switching to a purely defensive posture.

The group could only rely on the power of the "Jianmu" tree itself to resist. This innate spiritual root seemed to sense the danger, autonomously emitting boundless azure light, its branches swaying to form a life barrier against the raging flames…

This wasn't something actively activated, but rather a divine creature's instinctive self-defense mechanism. However, the Golden Crow clan's Solar True Fire was too domineering; even the Jianmu tree was damaged...

"Chi chi chi——"

The azure radiance of the Jianmu tree melted away under the scorching golden flames, emitting a chilling sound.

"Wow!"

However, the Golden Crow Emperor's son's powerful attack naturally prompted a corresponding response from the "Seven Fairy Maidens," who were the Emperor's daughters.

Although what has manifested is clearly not the original body, but rather a projection resembling a heroic spirit or some kind of obsession, its appearance here is certainly not without reason!
They strolled leisurely amidst the raging flames of the Golden Crow... Despite the overwhelming fire, it seemed to have no effect on them whatsoever!
"Is this the legendary 'Heavenly Garment' that can be immune to most rule-based attacks?"

It is seamless. Once you put it on, your whole body feels like you are in another world. Unless it involves an attack at the level of a true god, it cannot affect you!

"It is said that the seven fairies were most skilled at weaving, and the celestial garments they created were among the most precious treasures of the Heavenly Court."

Wang Yuyan's beautiful eyes sparkled with wonder.

"The legendary thread that can guide 'fate'?"

Moreover, everyone later discovered that these seven fairies were not only good at defense, but also at offense!
They seem to be moving about in a dance-like fashion, but between each finger are threads of light that flow like moonlight...

As the seven fairies moved, their figures were as ethereal as immortals, and they had unknowingly constructed an invisible "net of heaven and earth" in this world!
Fate, luck, and feng shui are the three most important factors in destiny, which belong to the highest level of cosmic rules.

Under normal circumstances, they are difficult to control by beings below the level of true gods... However, some gods can do these things by sharing the authority that originally belonged to the "true gods"...

For example, the "Three Fates" in Western legends, and these "Weaver Girls" before us.

"Buzz!"

After trapping these golden crows, the "Seven Fairies" displayed even greater power.

They seemed to have originally been washing something on the banks of the Milky Way?
One of the fairies raised her hand lightly, and the endless waters of the Milky Way were stirred by an invisible force, condensing in the air into a magnificent "Milky Way scroll".

Upon closer inspection, it was not ordinary gauze, but a "celestial river map" composed of countless star-like water droplets!
The entire scroll slowly unfolds, seemingly able to cover the entire sky, with specks of celestial water within twinkling like naturally occurring stars, seemingly containing the supreme mysteries of the trajectory of destiny.

Surprisingly, it "captured" all the golden suns in the sky.

Those invisible threads of fate quietly wrapped around the golden crows, each thread seemingly connecting to a miniature world, forcibly dragging these golden crows into it.

In these worlds, even the mighty Golden Crows are weakened and bound layer by layer.

"These seven fairies actually used silk threads as the carriers of their own laws to outline small worlds to trap their enemies. Is this the power of supreme deities?"

Huang Rong, who had already reached the second level of heaven, also saw through the trick, and her tone was full of admiration.

Moreover, after those golden crows entered the "small world," they themselves transformed into the beings within it, and their every move was manipulated by the "threads of fate," leaving them with no control over their own lives!

"Humans actually control such exquisite 'rules of fate'... and even attempt to manipulate the fate of my Golden Crow race? Do they really think... that's all the Golden Crow race can do?"

The three-legged golden crow roared with a desperate, mad glint in its eyes.

The Golden Crow Clan was defeated by the Human Race in ancient times, losing its original ambition of becoming the supreme race.

Even several "imperial sons" perished; this deep-seated hatred nearly drove it to madness.

It is merely a "top deity" of the third heaven. Even the "Golden Crow Emperor," who is a true god, was defeated by the human race. How could it not know its own limitations?
But driven by the resentment accumulated over millennia, it suddenly decided to fight to the death with the human race!
"Using blood as a catalyst, let's burn the entire world!"

More divine blood burned within the Golden Crow Emperor's son, transforming into specks of golden-red blood that dripped into the world composed of threads of fate, staining the "Heavenly River Scroll" crimson.

The three-legged golden crow skeletons at the "top" level that were hit by the blood beads suddenly became even more intense, and their golden feathers began to burn the threads of fate, causing the entire "Heavenly River Map" to shake violently, as if it might be burned at any moment!
"Human race, even if it consumes my life force, I will still win this battle..." In addition to hatred, the Golden Crow Emperor's son's eyes also held an extreme pride.

It is a dignified "son of a true god", and among the supreme gods, it is a prodigy who can suppress most beings of the same level!
Faced with a person who, like itself, had once been an "Empress's Daughter," it was willing to sacrifice its own lifespan to completely annihilate these humans before it!
"Oh no, the power of these seven fairies seems to be somewhat insufficient..."

Qin Liangyu frowned.

The seven fairies themselves may have perished in the great battle of the past, and what remains are merely "projections" recorded by this palace.

Even if they could temporarily fight against these golden crows by relying on the "Heavenly River Map" and the "Heavenly Garment".

However, when faced with a supreme deity who was willing to burn his own essence, he gradually found himself powerless.

Just then, everyone suddenly noticed.

On the opposite bank of the river, within a hazy palace, an extremely pure moonlight suddenly burst forth, cascading down like a waterfall.

The plaque of the palace behind them became clearer, and several divine characters flowing with the cold moonlight were finally discernible—

"The Moon Palace, the Weaver Girl's Office?"

Someone read it out softly.

Everyone finally learned the name of the palace that belonged to the "Weaver Girl's Palace".

This was originally the legendary abode of the Moon Goddess in the Heavenly Court, which forms a stark contrast with the Sun Crow, representing yin and yang, hot and cold!

"The Moon Goddess? When did the Moon Goddess become Chang'e? She's just a lowly human, yet she dares to seize this palace, and even..."

The Golden Crow Emperor's son became even angrier upon seeing this.

Its gaze passed over the Seven Fairy Maidens and fixed intently on the depths of the Moon Palace.

Beneath the shadow of that enormous laurel tree, a solitary and aloof figure could be vaguely seen standing quietly.

At this moment, the figure seemed to sense something, and a pure moonlight power emanated from it, merging into the "Celestial River Map" in the air.

"laugh--"

The "True Fire of the Sun," which was spreading, was quickly suppressed and extinguished when it encountered the power of the moon.

The power of the moonlight and the power of the stars were perfectly integrated, and even though the Golden Crow Emperor's son risked his life, his offensive was still suppressed!
"I'm going to destroy that palace!"

After realizing that the remaining power in the Moon Palace was the source of the "Human Empress's" power, the Golden Crow Emperor's son frantically wanted to destroy it, and actually drove the "Golden Crow Nest" to crash into it!
However, that cold, clear moon is like the strongest barrier, firmly protecting the Guanghan Palace.

Jianmu, Fusang, Yuegui... each one is a top-tier spiritual root in the world.

At this moment, the power of the laurel tree flows endlessly, subtly echoing the life force of the Jianmu tree, together resisting the true fire of the sun of the golden crow.

"Damn it, that 'Moon Palace' was once the residence of my demon race's empress, and also the abode of a true god... Although it is not his divine kingdom, it cannot be easily destroyed..."

The Golden Crow Emperor's son gritted his teeth.

"My cultivation is currently insufficient, and I have also depleted a large amount of my essence and blood. I am not suited for prolonged combat... Otherwise, I might allow others to reap the benefits..."

Knowing that things are probably hopeless now, they want to retreat.

However, to its alarm, when it tried to retreat, it found it was too late.

The icy power emanating from the Moon Palace quietly spread, even dimming the true fire of the sun on its feathers.

Most importantly, this occurred as it attempted to take action against the "Moon Palace".

As the seven fairies moved, they unknowingly constructed an invisible "net of heaven and earth" in this world!
Now it is caught in the net and being dragged by a force back into the "Milky Way".

However, things are different now, because the "Golden Crow's Nest" is in a standoff with the "Moon Palace" and cannot protect itself... Once you enter, you will probably be completely cleansed of everything and fall into the "fate" woven by the other side.

"Humans, do you really think I will be at your mercy?"

The three-legged golden crow roared with the madness of someone at their wit's end.

The Golden Crow Clan was defeated by the human race in ancient times, and even several "imperial sons" perished. This humiliation made them prefer to perish together with the enemy.

As a supreme deity of the third heaven, it naturally knew the gap between itself and a true god.

However, it is not the only one of the Golden Crow clan to survive, and it is not even the strongest among the Golden Crow clan...

"Aren't you going to make a move? Do you really want to wait until I'm dead before you come out...?"

"Don't think I don't know that you didn't truly perish in that battle, and you even regained some of your senses... Now, the enemy's wife is right here... having seized Mother's palace... Can you still stand by and watch?"

This statement, with its implications, undoubtedly left everyone feeling uncertain and apprehensive.

What does this mean? Does it mean that there is an even more powerful being in this "Golden Crow Nest" than this "Golden Crow Emperor's Son"?

It should be noted that the "Golden Crow Emperor's Son" before them was enough to make everyone feel immense pressure.

Even with the foundation of the Qianxia Dynasty, it took an exploration legion all its strength, and it was only by relying on the original arrangements within the human race's "First Immortal Court," that it barely managed to cope!

What if there is an even more powerful being within this Golden Crow's Nest?
"Haha, are you still going to pretend? Do you really want to see me die?"

“Very well, then I will destroy this entire ‘divine kingdom,’ and you will lose the foundation for vying for the position of ‘true god’…”

The Golden Crow Emperor's son was filled with resentment.

Instantly, the entire Black Crow's Nest began to tremble violently. The branches of the "Fusang Tree" that formed the main structure of this divine treasure suddenly burst into boundless flames, beginning a state of "self-immolation"! (End of Chapter)
