Lord of the Earth

"The true god of the Soul Clan... the master of that innate spiritual root, the 'Three Lives Fruit'!"

The identity of this third true god is self-evident.

Furthermore, the killing intent emanating from him was even more intense than that of the vampires and the Spider Queen.

It was not only the divine power that overwhelmed all the heavens, but also the fury of being violated by ants.

This is not surprising.

Innate spiritual roots are extremely precious; even for true gods, they are considered extremely rare treasures.

Qianxia's conquest of the "Soul Clan Dynasty" and the seizure of this treasure was tantamount to touching the "protestant scale" of a true god!
More importantly, the Soul Clan used human souls to refine "Soul Liquid," slaughtering billions of humans. This alone made the two sides irreconcilable enemies...

As a true god, one would naturally not allow one's enemies to grow, especially to the point where they might threaten one's own existence.

"The Supreme God is enraged! Those who steal the sacred fruit shall suffer eternal torment!"

"The souls of the human race are meant to be resources and playthings for our race's advancement, yet they dare to rebel and even covet the possessions of the chief god?"

"Behold, the gaze of the Supreme God has arrived. The souls of everyone in Qianxia will be extracted, and they will wail in the soul fire for ten thousand years!"

On the battlefield, the Qianxia army, which had been blocked by Qianxia and unable to return to provide reinforcements, "saw" the majestic projection of their main god that froze the souls of all things. Excited voices spread among the Soul Clan and its vassals.

Now, three true gods have appeared at the same time, each radiating a pressure that is enough to make all the heavens tremble... What qualifications does Qianxia have to resist?
And this is not the end.

Boom!

A deafening roar, as if countless oceans were roaring simultaneously, emanated from the fourth portal!

The boundless seawater surged out and condensed in the air into a towering giant. He wore a blue royal robe woven from billions of deep-sea dragon scales, a crown inlaid with coral and pearls, and held a "trident of the abyss" that seemed to be condensed from the entire galaxy!
It is a true sea god who rules over billions of marine creatures and whose faith covers countless aquatic worlds!

"The land will eventually return to the sea. The human dynasty is nothing more than a castle on the beach."

The sound was like a tsunami of millions of waves crashing together, shaking one's eardrums to the point of rupture and shattering one's soul.

The trident paused slightly, and countless phantom images of sunken continents and submerged civilizations appeared in the void, bringing an overwhelming sense of depravity and suffocation!

The seas throughout the Eternal Land instantly boiled over.

All waterways within Qianxia's territory rose wildly and flowed backwards, disrupting the laws of the water system, causing countless ships to sink and resulting in death!
"Under the divine might of the Sea Emperor, this continent shall be purified and returned to the embrace of the ocean!"

The sea creature army gathered in the deep sea, ready to pounce, as if they would unleash a raging tide that would engulf everything at the command of the Sea God.

"Your Majesty, Sea Emperor, please calm your anger! How dare a land-dwelling race disregard the majesty of the Seven Seas!"

On the battlefield, numerous Naga, Sirens, and deep-sea behemoths also raised their heads and roared, then lay prostrate on the ground!
"I have no interest in 'capturing humans'!"

The fifth "Cataclysmic Gate" burst open with a deafening roar, unleashing an endless torrent of lightning and burning meteorites that transformed the sky into a purgatory of destruction.

"However, anyone who blasphemes the blood of the Titans shall be struck down by lightning for eternity!"

Amidst the thunder, the figure of a colossal being, composed entirely of ancient thunderstone and of immeasurable height, emerged.

He has only one huge vertical eye, located in the center of his forehead. The eye is not an eyeball, but a thunderous vortex that is constantly creating and destroying nebulae!
He held a warhammer made entirely of solidified purple lightning in his hand; the electric sparks emanating from the warhammer alone tore through space for tens of thousands of miles.

The true god of the Cyclopes, the Titan of thunder and destruction!
"God King! The God King of Thunder and Destruction!"

The Titan descendants and Cyclopes scattered throughout the Eternal Land trembled with excitement as they bowed to the sky.

"Those who blaspheme the blood of the Titans will be punished by the gods, their souls scattered and their spirits destroyed!"

"Human, your time has come! Be reduced to charred remains under the true divine thunder!"

After the sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth "gates"... equally majestic outlines, carrying the same world-destroying power, also appeared.

In the end, ten true gods appeared in the sky, each a completely different yet equally extreme embodiment of the "Great Dao Rules" and "Heavenly Authority"!
The will of these true gods has merely been projected from beyond their realms and has not yet truly exerted its power.

This caused the space near Baiyujing to solidify like divine metal, and the flow of time to become disordered.

Throughout the entire Qianxia region, the minds of low-level beings below the Transcendent Realm almost ceased; the earth tectonic plates groaned, and deep chasms appeared out of nowhere; mountains collapsed on their own, and rivers surged upwards...

"Is this... the power of a true god?"

Boundless fear, like the coldest ice tide, swept over all eternal life within billions of miles.

Within the territory of Qianxia, ​​countless ordinary people looked up at the ten divine figures that seemed capable of ending everything, their bodies turning cold and their teeth chattering.

The sky was torn apart by strange phenomena, and the laws of heaven and earth upon which we depend for survival were wailing and in disarray.

"My God... ten... ten such terrifying beings... even more despair-inducing than the ten suns that Hou Yi shot down..."

"Your Majesty... are we able to stop them?"

Panic was spreading, with the cries of children, the suppressed sobs of women, and the heavy breathing of men all mingling together.

Even if they believed in Xia Tian and Qian Xia's power, those were ten true gods! Legendary supreme beings! Their mere gaze could freeze one's soul.

In the barracks, many new recruits were pale-faced, their hands trembling slightly as they gripped their weapons. If it weren't for the resolute figures and stern gazes of the veterans beside them, they would have almost collapsed.

"Ten projections of the will of true gods... He's gone mad! Qian Xia has pierced through the heavens!"

"The path of destiny of the human race has actually caused so many ancient beings to manifest simultaneously?"

"It's over... Even with Qianxia's astonishing foundation, how can they withstand it? These are ten True Gods! Even if they only send down their avatars, it would be enough to destroy a top-tier imperial dynasty!"

"Quickly! Send a message back to reassess the relationship with Qian Xia! No, perhaps we should consider how to immediately sever ties, or even..."

Meanwhile, the many other races harbored secret anxieties, a mixture of schadenfreude, shared sorrow, and calculated scheming...

Faced with an absolute power disparity, any alliance appears pale and fragile, while the races and believers corresponding to the true gods fall into utter fanaticism!
"Humans, mere ants, dare to dream of establishing a Celestial Court again? They should all be annihilated here!"

Within the sea of ​​blood, atop the castle, the voice of the vampire god resounded, transforming into crimson ripples of law. Wherever these ripples passed, all things withered, and life was forcibly drained away…

"Using catastrophe as a ladder? What a laughable idea! Let this catastrophe become your grave!"

The whispers of the Soul Clan's true god exploded directly within the depths of all beings' souls, triggering signs of impending collapse at the soul level.

The other true gods did not say much, but their cold gazes and their undisguised intention to destroy, conquer, or completely erase the imprint of their civilization were more oppressive than any words.

This is the true opposite of divine power being like a prison and divine grace being like the sea—divine punishment being like an abyss!
Ten true gods, whose power shook the heavens and whose faith pervaded all realms, now focused their attention on "Qianxia" for various reasons.

Although it did not truly descend, even this projection of will that transcends the boundary is enough to cause an ordinary dynasty's fortune to collapse, its territory to crumble, and all living beings to descend into madness in an instant!
The world lost its color, and all roads wailed in sorrow.

Qianxia faced the most terrifying and desperate test since its establishment...

"May the fate of the Qianxia nation protect my people!"

A deep shout, like a thunderclap, resounded in the hearts of countless Qianxia people gripped by fear!
On the summer day atop the Fengchan Terrace, the "Crown of the Chinese Emperors" suddenly burst forth with dazzling humanistic radiance, like a lighthouse in the darkness, stubbornly dispelling the pervasive divine chill. Below, on the Fengchan Terrace, which embodies the boundless imperial fortune and beliefs of Chinese history, the "figures of emperors" of the human race struggled to emerge, attempting to resist the overwhelming divine might!
"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

The phantom of the Great Wall of the Human Race trembled and vibrated, as if every brick and stone was fighting against the invisible divine power, and countless ancient scenes of the ancestors fighting against gods and demons appeared on it!
Even under the intense gaze of those ten world-destroying eyes, Xia Tian's figure remained as straight as a javelin...

"It's your Majesty!"

"His Majesty is still alive! The fate of the nation remains!"

"The Great Wall has not fallen! Our ancestors are watching us, how can we be afraid!"

The sound and figure of Xia Tian instantly became the only pillar in the hearts of countless people of Qianxia. They saw their emperor still standing tall at the top of the altar, facing the "Ten True Gods" without fear!
"What are you afraid of! Don't forget how we fought our way up from humble beginnings!"

"That's right, they're just a bunch of alien gods. Haven't I, Qian Xia, slaughtered enough gods already?"

"For the sake of Qianxia! For the sake of our descendants! We will fight to the death!"

The roars of the soldiers of the Trapped Camp overwhelmed the panic in their minds; in the city, the voices of the disciples of the "Mind School" soothed people's hearts, but the fear did not disappear.

But it was overshadowed by a somewhat tragic, do-or-die determination!

However, even with Qianxia's power, he could not completely resist the pressure from ten "true gods".

The "Seven-Colored True Dragon," formed from the national destiny of Qianxia, ​​let out a deafening roar. Its body shone with intense, flickering light as it endured unprecedented pressure. Even the ground beneath Xia Tian's feet, the "altar" made of five-colored soil, began to show fine cracks...

It should be noted that the first step of "ascending to the Immortal Dynasty" has not yet been completed, and the "ascension ceremony" has not yet received a response from the "Eternal Will"!

Because, theoretically, Qianxia has not yet truly fulfilled the merits required to advance to the "Celestial Dynasty".

Now, these true gods have already "projected" themselves, potentially causing Qian Xia's plan to "die in its infancy"...

"So what if he's a true god? Does he think our human race has no one left?!"

At this critical moment, several equally magnificent and powerful auras, carrying both iron-bloodedness and the brilliance of civilization, soared into the sky from several directions within the Qianxia territory!

In the east, black dragon flags fluttered, and black armor stood like a forest, revealing the illusory silhouette of a majestic black city of Xianyang.

On the city wall, a phantom of an emperor, wearing a crown and a black dragon robe, stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes like lightning. It was none other than Qin Shi Huang, Ying Zheng!
"Jiujiu, Lao Qin, fight against the national calamity together!"

The Qin warriors' killing intent remained strong and unyielding. Although they lacked the status of true gods, their unparalleled imperial might, which "standardized writing, standardized cart tracks, and swept across the six directions," could faintly rival the divine might above the heavens.

In the west, golden light shines in all directions, and a magnificent scene unfolds. The phantom of Chang'an, a city encompassing all things, appears, illuminating the glorious civilization of the Zhenguan era.

The phantom of "Heavenly Khan" Li Shimin stands on the city tower, surrounded by the majestic figures of the twenty-four meritorious officials of Lingyan Pavilion.

"Great Tang! With all nations paying tribute, what fear is there of gods and demons?!"

He didn't say much, but simply raised his hand and waved it. The aura of the Tang Dynasty behind him was like a brilliant galaxy awakening, with scenes of all nations paying tribute, brilliant poems, and galloping iron cavalry.

That is the confidence and strength of a flourishing civilization, which converges into a substantial shield for the nation's destiny!

In the south, the illusory image of Yingtian Prefecture rises and falls, the sun and moon shine together, and the figure of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Taizu, emerges, carrying the rugged dragon spirit of a commoner emperor and the resolute will to reshape the mountains and rivers of China.

"Great Ming! May the sun, moon, mountains, and rivers live on forever!"

The Ming Dynasty's national destiny burned fiercely, carrying the fierce spirit of "the emperor guards the nation's gate, the monarch dies for the state," which complemented the splendor of the Tang Dynasty and the solemnity of the Qin Dynasty!

"The Ming Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty have all come to help my Qianxia..."

Everyone in Qianxia was filled with excitement.

In particular, those who originally belonged to the "Ming Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, and Qin Dynasty" camp, such as Bai Qi, the military commander of Qianxia, ​​Qi Jiguang, the commander of the Xuanwu Legion, and Qin Liangyu, the commander of the Bai Ze Legion...

They gazed at those familiar figures, their eyes filled with excitement.

"Now that everyone is here, how can our great Han Dynasty be absent?"

In the north, the shadow of the Han Dynasty emperors manifested.

This time, it wasn't just one, but a full four!

That was the joint manifestation of the four great dynasties of Shu Han, Wuhan, Guang Han, and Da Han!
"Those who offend our mighty Han, though far away, shall be punished!"

A mighty will surged into the sky. Although it did not directly and completely manifest all its essence, the divine figures of quasi-god-level beings such as Emperor Gaozu of Han (Liu Bang), Emperor Wu of Han (Liu Che), Emperor Guangwu of Han (Liu Xiu), Emperor Zhaolie of Han (Liu Bei), and Guan Yu, the God of War, had already emerged. That pervasive and powerful will represented the indomitable spirit in the bloodline of the nation with "Han" as its code name!

Qin Dynasty, Tang Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Han Dynasty...

These unified dynasties, which had already reached their peak in Chinese history, have ascended to the level of "quasi-immortal dynasties" after inheriting some of the legacy of the ancient "human race immortal court" and engaging in in-depth cooperation with Qianxia in areas such as "business alliances and military affairs"!
Although, due to insufficient merit, it is still unable to advance to the "Celestial Dynasty"...

However, now, with the nation's fortune burning at its peak and the emperor's will driving it, the power of their respective destinies has converged on the "Human Race Fengchan Platform" beneath Xia Tian's feet!
The figures above, representing ancient human sages and emperors of all dynasties, become more solid and clear...

This also meant that the terrifying oppressive aura emanating from the ten true gods was largely neutralized by the combined power of the four strong forces of civilization!
"It's the rest of the dynasties of destiny...they've come to our aid!"

"China is a unified nation, bound by a shared destiny! We are not fighting alone!"

"So what if there are ten true gods? China will fight to the death!"

The reinforcements coming from all directions ignited hope and passion!
The soldiers of the Qianxia Army straightened their backs and formed a "battle formation," while the people wiped away their tears and gripped their tools and weapons tightly.

They saw that behind their emperor stood not only the Qianxia dynasty, but also the most glorious names and forces in the entire history of Chinese civilization!

This is the path chosen by humanity, the "path of destiny," where small efforts accumulate to form a great structure.

The weakest mortal individuals, under the rules of the Eternal Land, gather together to form a powerful civilization capable of resisting the oppression of the true gods!
"Hmm? A descendant of the former First Celestial Court of the Human Race?"

Above the sky, ten divine figures, like the suns of destruction, shone brightly, their eyes showing a slight fluctuation.

This is because the human race was originally just a "tool" for the gods to draw faith. After discovering that the human race was becoming too powerful to control, the gods tried to strangle the human race!

Unexpectedly, the human race unleashed astonishing power.

Especially the "First Celestial Court," which involves many hidden secrets...

Even the gods paid a huge price to "destroy" it, and the number of gods who fell for it was astonishing!

"Now, I sense the shadow of the 'First Celestial Court of Humanity' once again in these humans... Although the two are not on the same level yet, if they were to truly set foot in a 'Celestial Dynasty,' there would probably be quite a bit of trouble..."

"They cannot be allowed to live..."

The will of the true gods communicates and clashes on a level that ordinary people cannot reach.

"Take direct action and annihilate them completely, shattering the illusions in the hearts of these inferior humans!"

A true god conveyed impatience and pure killing intent, and the rules around its will twisted! (End of Chapter)
