Si Xi lied on the ground. His broken chest was healing speedily, but blood was still spurting out of his mouth.
"Hou Tu, the Earth God? You b * stards, where did you come from? "
While vomiting blood, Si Xi murmured curses. He had been through countless dangers, risked his life countless times, and crawled out from piles of corpses on battlefields against the non-humankind many times.
But today, Zhu Rong, the Fire God, and Hou Tu, the Earth God, what were they doing?
The heaven had withered, and only people like Kua E and three to five thousand weak divine Gods managed to survive, barely managing to maintain the heaven. Thousands of divine Gods, if the heaven and earth great formation didn't protect the heaven, any top-grade human clan could inflict serious damage to the heaven.
The heaven had fallen so badly, but how could such terrifyingly powerful monsters emerge one after another, that shouldn't even exist?
Zhu Rong expressionlessly hacked down the long spear, aiming straight at Si Xi's neck.
Si Xi hurriedly turned sideways, while Ji Hao transformed into a streak of light and dashed over. The Pan Gu bell released streams of Chaos power that wrapped Si Xi up. Zhu Rong flicked his wrist and bumped the bell with the long spear. The bell rang resonantly, while Ji Hao was forced back for over ten miles.
The earth buzzed deeply. Hou Tu, who was over a hundred meters tall and had a tail that was over a hundred meters long, slowly slithered over. He looked at Ji Hao and Si Xi expressionlessly and said in a cold and stiff tone, "The will of the world … You puny mortal beings can't understand it."
He slightly waved his four arms, and the surrounding earth squirmed weirdly. Strong earth power surged into Hou Tu's body, and soon, four transparent, dark-yellow long swords were condensed in his hands. Hou Tu casually wielded the long swords, and the heavy sword power left a hundred-miles-long, immeasurably deep sword mark on the ground.
"This world has to have a heaven. The heaven of this world has to have true divine Gods like us to guard the three worlds. "
"This world needs us, and the heaven of this world needs us. Therefore, no matter how long it will be, we will show up in this world. We represent the will of this world, and you insignificant, lowly mortals must obey our will! "
"We represent the Heavens and the Earth. We are the Heavenly Dao. We are the Dharma and Logos. If we want you dead, you must die! If you don't die, if you resist, you will be committing treason and heresy. You will be going against the heavens. You will be evil! "
Houtu's voice was neither fast nor slow. It was heavy and deep, and it revealed a confident tone that carried a heavy weight. Standing aside, Zhu Rong nodded ceaselessly. Obviously, he agreed with Hou Tu.
Both Ji Hao and Si Xi remained silent with darkened faces. Si Xi's wounds had already healed. He slowly stood up and slapped his own chest.
"We humans are tiny, and we have indeed been lowly before." Si Xi looked at Hou Tu seriously and said, "But, our insignificance and lowliness are not an excuse for you to do whatever you want to us, to dictate our lives."
"We human beings don't have as long a lifespan as you do. Our babies are born weak, without sharp teeth or claws, and we don't have great powers like you do."
"But, we human beings have been thriving since the prehistorical era. We are like weeds that can be seen everywhere in this world. We are lowly, but we live splendidly." Si Xi proudly raised his head and said, "We worship our ancestors, we raise our children, we build houses, we raise livestock. It's not easy for us to live, but we live happily."
Pointing his right thumb at his heart, Si Xi smiled and continued, "Those Chaos monsters, who once dominated the world, are gone … The bloodlines of those legendary creatures, who used to dominate the world, are gone … The ancient heaven, which used to stand high above the masses, withered along with the wind and rain … Even those powerful non-humankind monsters failed to wipe us out."
Ji Hao straightened his waist. Si Xi's words were simple, even a bit rough, but a warm stream of power rose from Ji Hao's spine to his head, filling Ji Hao's entire body with strength. He even felt a bit hot-blooded. Even with his current cultivation, he almost couldn't suppress the urge of risking his life to fight against Zhu Rong and Hou Tu.
"Those Chaos monsters were beaten by our human armies, hiding in their nests, not daring to show their faces."
"Those legendary creatures, who once gave us their powers, now, their descendants have all become our mounts and battle beasts."
"The heaven, which stands high above the masses? Hehe, the descendants of their Gods can only work for us humans in exchange for offerings. "
"Non-humankind monsters have nearly destroyed our civilization many times, but now, Yu Dynasty can only confront our alliance of human clans from a distance, and can't start a great war for years."
"We, the human race, live only because we want to live."
"We want to live. Therefore, not even the sky can destroy us; not even the earth can kill us. If the world wants to destroy us, we will destroy the world."
"You are born in the world. You have no parents, no blood, no fleshly, emotionless, immortal monsters … Even if you represent the so-called will of the world, if you want us to die, we will let you die!"
Si Xi gnashed his teeth so hard that they even caused a creaking noise. Looking at Hou Tu, he sneered and said, "I can't kill you, but I have a son. My son can't kill you, but my grandson can. The bloodline of our humankind will flourish, and we will have endless descendants. One day, when a saint emerges from our humankind, he will destroy your heaven, destroy your bloodline, and make you disappear. He will lay the foundation of our humankind for eternity. "
Ji Hao remained silent, gripping the hilt of the Taiji divine sword with both hands. He was ready to fight to the death against Hou Tu and Zhu Rong.
Kun Peng coughed loudly. Blood splashed out from his enormous mouth as he said intermittently, "Did you hear that? Human beings have many tough bones. Therefore … If we want them to work for us, we have to break all these tough bones. "
Dense dark clouds rolled and condensed into a long spear, aiming at Ji Hao and Si Xi from a long distance away.
Kun Peng said coldly, "Do it, Hou Tu … Only with that thing can we command the breathing earth, and you can be the true God of earth!"
Hou Tu's emotionless face was still expressionless. He slowly nodded, then locked his four arms together and formed a mountain-like, strong spell symbol. A faint yellow-colored light flashed across his eyes. The ground quaked intensely, then Hou Tu burst into a thunderous roar.
Si Xi's body suddenly quivered. He vomited blood while a human-head-sized yellow-colored stamper tore his chest apart and flew out of his body.
Kun Peng laughed louder and louder, "Hou Tu divine seal, the true God of earth in the heaven. It can command all mountains in the world, and can control all pre-world and after-world earth powers … Hou Tu, do it now!"
Hou Tu nodded and flicked his finger. The seal struck violently on Si Xi's forehead and sent him flying out from the Chaos power streams released from the Pan Gu bell.
