After saying these words in a gloomy manner, Hermes turned into a dark shadow, twisting his figure in the night sky before disappearing.
Yang Cheng's expression was uncertain. His eyes flashed with a painful struggle, but it gradually calmed down. He looked a little lonely.
Apollo and Artemis looked at each other, sighed softly, and left quietly.
Poseidon looked at Yang Cheng for a while and said lightly, "Don't think too highly of yourself, young man. It's good to have a temper, but it depends on who the other party is. Sometimes, overconfidence is stupidity …"
After saying this, Poseidon also disappeared into the darkness.
Yang Cheng clenched his fists. After standing in the night sky for a long time, he let out a long sigh.
He felt a little tired, not in his body, but in his heart. Could it be that what he had done was really as that arrogant woman had said, that "the future will not change"?
Was her life really as she had foreseen? Was everything destined from the start?
Then what he was doing now, did it follow her wishes from time to time?
However, if "the future will not change", then was the choice he made at the last minute also within her predictions?
No one could tell him whether it was right or wrong, and no one would tell him. Because, at present, her strength stood at the highest point, and no one could disobey her.
What did she want to do? What would happen if Gaia's Heart kept absorbing the energy of the sun!?
Yang Cheng felt that his brain was about to explode, but he could not find a way out.
It was as if a large hand from the unseen world had grabbed hold of him and treated him like a puppet, playing with him at will. However, the feeling of helplessness was driving him crazy!
The people that he thought were allies and friends suddenly became like he had never known them before.
Or was it that compared to the tens of thousands of years of life and experience of the gods, he was really just a fledgling who had always been playing with him?
Yang Cheng shook his head and did not think too much about it. He could not care about Gaia's Heart and Athena now. The hidden family in the illusion was a big problem. If he did not take action now, he was afraid that he would have to prepare something else to make a comeback.
His figure flashed, and he flew straight to the east.
Not long ago, in the central region of the Illusory Realm.
The All-Heavens Island where Hongmeng was located was located here.
If one were to look at it from afar, they would be able to witness the uncanny craftsmanship left behind by the ancient Immortals.
The floating formations were supported by flashing faint golden runes, steadily hovering in the air.
Borrowing the spiritual energy of the illusion, it had been operating like this for tens of thousands of years.
On the island, there were flowers, plants, trees, mountains, rivers, and everything that one could think of. Water flowed down from a Water Spirit Gathering Formation at the edge of Heaven's Vault Island and flowed into the rivers below.
Like blue and white ribbons, waterfalls of different sizes hung from the Earth-rank all the way to the Mystic-rank and the Earth-rank.
The number of yellow-rank ones was the highest, and the higher the rank, the lesser the number.
On the uppermost level, Heaven's Vault Island, there was only a lone floating island.
High up in the sky above Heaven's Vault Island was a huge golden formation that stretched as far as the eye could see!
This huge formation was guarded by Hongmeng as a mission. It imprisoned the ancient demons, including the leader of the Gods, Zeus, the Heavenly King of Heaven — the Twelve Heavens Celestial Demon Formation!
Whether or not this was the original name of the formation was no longer known. The ancient immortals had spent countless wonderful ideas and divine powers to create this huge formation. The complexity of it was completely beyond the imagination of modern cultivators.
Even those cultivators who had fought against the Gods 20,000 years ago had only borrowed the shadow of the ancient Immortals. They were also incomparably respectful of this huge formation.
Without this huge formation, they would only have ended up being slaughtered by Zeus and Athena.
However, ever since Zeus had been taken in 20,000 years ago, there had been no movement from the huge formation.
No one knew how the huge formation worked. Even those ancestors from 20,000 years ago had not passed down any method to activate this huge formation.
Hongmeng's guards were only on paper. The Heaven-rank elders of Hongmeng's Heaven's Vault Island had no way of knowing how to use this huge formation.
This secret was only known to some of the big shots in the upper echelons of Hongmeng. This was because it was not something to be proud of. The so-called mission of guarding the huge formation was actually just to set up camp right below the huge formation.
If not for this, they would not have been able to fight evenly with the hidden clans. After all, even Zeus could not break through the huge seal formation. Those cultivators of the hidden clans would definitely not be able to defeat it.
The Twelve Heavens Celestial Demon Formation was independent, silent, and dignified. It was like a heavenly eye left behind by the ancient Immortals, watching over the descendants of the cultivators below.
It let them know at all times that their survival still depended on their ancestors. Compared to their ancestors, they were insignificant and weak …
In the center of Heaven's Vault Island, surrounded by a large area of green trees, there was an antique pavilion with dragon carvings and painted rafters. Clouds and mist floated in the air, making it look like a fairyland.
And in the center of this pavilion was a spacious high platform made of bluestone.
The high platform was surrounded by 12 huge stone pillars that were three feet wide. These stone pillars did not look impressive, but they were black mystic stones that ordinary magic treasures could not move at all.
This was the meeting place of Heaven's Vault Island's elders.
There were dozens of Heaven-rank elders on Heaven's Vault Island. Only the top 12 elders had the right to stand on these 12 black mystic stone pillars.
This was also the center of power in Hongmeng.
At this moment, there were already many Hongmeng cultivators standing on the high platform and the surrounding empty space.
Hundreds of Hongmeng cultivators were mostly Earth-rank elders and a large number of Mystic rank deacons. These people were qualified to attend some important meetings, but other than that, they could not enter Heaven's Vault Island as they pleased.
This time, it attracted a large number of Hongmeng cultivators because of the few "distinguished guests" on the high platform.
The crowd discussed and pointed at the people on the high platform, but they did not dare to speak too loudly. They were a little afraid of these guests.
Of course, there were also some "nobles" in Hongmeng who disdained to lower their status like ordinary Hongmeng cultivators. They each stood in their own positions and proudly held their heads high.
Among them, Yan Feiyun, the eldest son of the younger generation of the Hongmeng Yan Family, was standing together with his younger sisters, Yan Feiyu and Yan Feiling.
The three siblings of the Yan Family did not look too good, especially Yan Feiyun and Yan Feiyu. They stared at someone on the stage with a bone-chilling look in their eyes.
"Brother Feiyun, with your status, you should be familiar with these people on the stage. I just entered the Earth-rank not long ago. I wonder which one of you is Luo Qianqiu, the head of the Luo Family who has passed the Tai Qing Heavenly Lightning Tribulation!" An agitated, skinny, middle-aged man approached Yan Feiyun and asked carefully.
This cultivator in the final phase of the Kui Water Stage was a newly promoted Earth-rank elder called Zhou Yi. He liked to ask about all kinds of things and was good at flattering others. It was said that he had been promoted by flattering a Heaven-rank elder by chance.
After entering the Earth-rank, he knew that Yan Feiyun was the eldest son of Yan Wuchen, one of the four Heaven-rank elders, so he immediately went to Yan Feiyun's side.
At first, Yan Feiyun did not care about him at all. However, this clown always praised him, so he just let him be.
However, Yan Feiyun naturally did not have a good attitude toward such people. He glanced at him and sneered, "Don't you know how to sense the pressure of their True Essence? Do you even need to ask? "
As he spoke, his gaze coldly locked onto the middle-aged cultivator with fluttering black hair on the high platform. It was Luo Qianqiu!
"Hehe, I'm really ashamed. I can't compare to Brother Feiyun's courage. I don't even dare to use my divine sense to investigate." Zhou Yi smiled and asked, "Brother Feiyun, can you tell me about the background of those people? I don't believe what others say, but after all, Brother Feiyun is the one who is truly knowledgeable."
Yan Feiyun snorted and said, "Other than Luo Qianqiu, the other three are also among the top ten experts of the illusion realm. The one in blue is the head of the Xiao family, Xiao Meng Yu, the one in white is the head of the Ning family, Ning Zhengfeng, and the sinister old ghost is an elder of the Ning family, Yin Shou Zhi."
"Yin Shou Zhi, one of the top ten experts in the illusion realm, is that old man who looks like a beggar?" Zhou Yi was stunned. He really didn't know about this.
