The gods.
Zhou Wu sat in the Peony Pavilion, eyes closed. His aura surged, transforming the space around him into primordial chaos. The peonies in the pavilion bloomed and wilted as he breathed.
The space around him had already become a sphere of its own, and was already beginning to take shape.
"Hah … …"
After spitting out a mouthful of turbid air, Zhou Wu, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes.
His gaze shone like lightning, filled with the aura of thunder. When he looked at the peonies around the pavilion, he reached out and brushed his hand, causing them to wither. Then, with a wave of his hand, they brimmed with life once more.
Faint excitement radiated from his eyes, and his desire blazed like a raging fire.
"Just a little bit more. Just a little more, and I'll reach the door to transcendence."
Zhou Wu clenched his fists and muttered to himself. Suddenly, he turned his head to the southeast, the smile in his eyes fading, and his brows furrowing.
"Divine Arbiter."
"Your subordinate is here!"
While Zhou Wu had been in seclusion, the Divine Arbiter had been waiting nearby. As soon as Zhou Wu spoke, the Divine Arbiter appeared in the courtyard. Her brows drooped, and she bowed to Zhou Wu.
"Did you sense the Yao fluctuations in the southeast?" asked Zhou Wu.
"I did." The Divine Arbiter nodded. "Those fluctuations came from the Yao Foxes. Yao Su Yan condensed a Lord God of Life's godhead and was bestowed with a god-given artifact."
"Yet another Sovereign."
Zhou Wu narrowed his eyes. Even though he was the god emperor, he wasn't a god.
He'd never condensed a godhead, nor did he possess a god-given artifact. He'd relied entirely on his own strength to get to where he was now.
In the past, whenever someone worthy of his attention condensed a godhead, his heart would inevitably waver. For example, when Bi 'an condensed a highgod godhead, Zhou Wu couldn't sleep soundly for half a year. He was worried that Bi' an would steal his throne. There was also the Sea of Innocence's Wish God. Fortunately, he wasn't a war-type, which was why Zhou Wu was able to lower his guard. However, he was especially worried about the Sea of Innocence's Sea Emperor.
Now, another Lord had appeared.
At this moment, yet another Sovereign appeared. The Sovereign of Life.
The era was approaching its end. In order to resist the end of the era, heroes would surely rise to power in the future.
The Life Master God might just be the beginning. There would be more and more Spirit Congealing or breakthroughs to become Thearchs in the future.
As the emperor of the God race, Zhou Wu was under a lot of pressure. However, this kind of pressure was only for him in the past. Now …
He no longer cared!
"The Sovereign of Life?" The surrounding people all grinned and laughed. "In the past, the Fox Ancestor formed the divine spark of a Sovereign of Life, and he also had the awe-inspiring 'Aura of Ice'. I heard that the Demon Race has recently produced a person with exceptional talent in using the Ice Breath? "
"Su Liu 'er," said the Divine Arbiter. "Her talent for the Breath of Ice is even greater than Su Qingyan's."
"Looks like the Fox Clan is going to return to their peak." Zhou Wu cracked his neck with a chuckle, but did not dwell on the topic. "Has Xue Tie heard anything about him?"
"No," said the Divine Arbiter.
The Divine Arbiter lowered her head, anticipating Zhou Wu's scolding. Every time they failed to find Xue Tie's whereabouts or information, Zhou Wu couldn't help but berate them.
To everyone's surprise, Zhou Wu didn't scold him this time.
He even reached out and lightly patted the Divine Arbiter's shoulder.
"You've worked hard recently for news of Xue Tie. It doesn't matter if he can find him or not. If he can, that's for the best, but if he can't, there's no need to worry too much. "
"You …." The Divine Arbiter furrowed her brows.
"Xue Tie is no longer the only turning point in my breakthrough. I've recently gained some new insights, so the Emperor Star's celestial fate is no longer essential." Zhou Wu smiled.
"Have you already touched the Transcendence realm?" asked the Divine Arbiter.
"You could say so." Zhou Wu nodded. "However, I'm still one step away. Pass on my orders: recruit all the Lords of the Auxiliary Stars. As long as they're the Lords of the Starry Imperial Dynasty, I will treat them generously."
The Divine Arbiter's heart trembled. She stared at Zhou Wu in silence.
"Hurry up and go!" roared Zhou Wu.
"Your Excellency, you want to …."
"That's none of your business. All you have to do is do as I say." Zhou Wu's expression darkened. "Divine Arbiter, you've disappointed me more and more recently. Alright, I'm a bit tired. You can go now. "
"Yes, Your Excellency!"
The Divine Arbiter bowed her head and left the courtyard. Her conversation with God Emperor Zhou Wu had left her with even greater disappointment.
There was no saving him!
Eastern Emperor's Palace, Eastern Monarch Taiyi's palace.
Dressed in plain robes, Eastern Monarch Taiyi gazed toward the southeast. His gaze was fixed on the territory of the Yao Foxes of the Eastern Nation.
Ever since the Fiend Race invaded the Fox Race, he, as the Demon Emperor, had always been in the know.
He'd known about the Southern Nation and the Western Regions' alliance with the demons.
He'd seen it all. He'd personally witnessed the collapse of the ancient tree in the Fox Clan's back mountain, as well as the Yao Clan and the demons' devastating attack on the Foxes. He'd always viewed things as a bystander. Even though he was the emperor of the Yao Clan, he still had to maintain the harmony of the Yao Clan.
He'd also seen Su Yan of the Fox Clan condense a Master God of Life's godhead. He'd also seen the light from the god's artifact.
"Interesting."
The Yao Emperor stood in the sky with his hands clasped behind his back. He smiled calmly, then silently turned around to look at the Eastern Emperor's Palace, which had practically merged with heaven and earth. “
"Interesting, interesting …"
The Fox Clan.
Su Yan, who had condensed the Master God of Life's godhead, was still unconscious. Her light was so dazzling that no one could look at her directly.
The Scepter of Life landed firmly in her hand, and she raised it high in the air.
At that moment, Su Yan's eyes suddenly opened.
She had a pair of emerald green eyes, and the aura she exuded was like that of a living angel. She tiptoed to the collapsed ancient tree. She waved the scepter in her hand, and the fallen ancient tree stood tall again on the back mountain of the Fox Clan.
Countless petals grew on the tree trunk, and everything looked the same as before.
After that, she waved the scepter forward. Countless emerald green lights, like seeds of life, landed on the ruined territory of the Fox Clan.
The fallen trees seemed to have been reborn, and in the blink of an eye, they were as lush and green as before.
They were even more lush than before.
"The Divine Ancestor has shown herself!"
Countless experts of the Fox Clan knelt on the ground, looking at Su Yan with reverence.
