The war between deities erupted so suddenly. The divine realm was in great turmoil, and this was an unimaginable disaster.
The replacement of the old and new deities had always been bloody and brutal. Unless the deity appointed a successor, the world would become an asura field, and blood would dye the earth red.
The divine realm was vast, but it almost exploded. Two waves of terrifying might erupted, and an intense confrontation unfolded. It was as if raging waves were beating against the shore, as if a vast ocean was pouring into the nine heavens.
"The statue is real, it really is you … Qing Ming, the one who competed against me for the divine position back then. You still haven't died!" The old deity roared. He stood on the divine altar. Even though the external power of faith was dim, his body shone from the inside out, and it was still very resplendent.
"You are wrong. I am not Qing Ming, that is my grandfather. He didn't have the Ancient Life Tree, so it is impossible for him to live a second life like you. I am Qing Yutian, and I will send you off and take back everything that belongs to my clan!"
This was a valiant middle-aged man, and he was exactly the same as the divine statues the various clans worshipped. He was majestic and imposing, looking down on the world. His eyes were deep, and his tall body possessed a type of intimidating dignity.
"A traitor usurping the throne, you must be put to death!" The old deity roared, and a palm slapped forward. It covered the sky and covered the earth, leaving the Great Sage outside the divine realm shaken.
This seemed to have taken that step, and his strength was horrifying. However, upon closer inspection, it didn't seem like it. There were still some traces that could be found, and it didn't seem like the realm of Quasi-emperor.
Honglong!
Qing Yutian was happy and fearless. He rushed into the heavens and raised his hand to meet it head-on without a trace of fear. He was calm and unhurried as he shouted, "Back then, my grandfather was the divine child, but you usurped the position. You killed the old deity and chased after my clan. You are the traitor who usurped the throne. Today, I will put you to death and return to the divine realm a bright world!"
Not to mention the people from outside this realm, even the divine realm was in chaos. The natives were even more shaken, and all the clans thought of an old matter.
The old deity's ascension was dishonorable. He killed his predecessor, seized the divine position, and chased away the former divine child. After endless years, he was almost annihilated in the passage of time.
Now, the old deity had lived two lives, and those of his generation had long died. He had the intention to cover up his dishonorable past, so naturally, the world wouldn't know about it. Only the elders of the major clans knew about this.
The old deity shouted, "Traitor, it's useless even if you return. Your clan came from the outer realms and wanted to overthrow the divine realm in the past. You should be executed. I will set things right and leave my name in history."
Everyone was confused. Who was telling the truth and who was lying? However, all of that wasn't important right now. Strength was what mattered.
"Old thief, even a supreme divine artifact doesn't listen to your command. Is this still not enough to explain the problem? When I truly set things right, I'll return the Divine Realm to its former glory!" Qingyutian roared.
The two clashed intensely, fighting a great battle, making heaven and earth collapse. Divine Domain split into pieces, on the verge of destruction.
Right at this moment, a short mountain and the oldest palace on top of it released a terrifying divine power that was many times vaster than the ocean and the sea of stars. It instantly froze the divine domain and repaired the cracks.
"This is …"
Everyone was shocked. This was the most ancient mountain in the divine realm. It could be called coexisting with the world, existing as long as this world existed.
It wasn't tall, nor was it conspicuous, but no one dared blaspheme it. This was the Divine Realm's supreme divine mountain, even more divine than the ancient mountain where the Ancient Tree of Life was planted.
There was an ancient palace on top that was known to exist with the world, never collapsing, existing since the beginning of time. It wasn't the most majestic, but it was definitely the most mysterious, not even deities able to set foot inside under normal circumstances.
This short mountain was the symbol of the divine realm, just like the buddhist sect's Mount Meru. Meanwhile, this ancient palace's status was the same as Great Thunderclap Temple, but there were even more taboos here, not allowing people to stop.
The mountain was ancient, every inch covered in cracks. However, right now, it suddenly shone, boundless and immeasurable faith power flowing out from the cracks, exceptionally majestic.
This wasn't the accumulation of a single generation of deities, but rather the accumulation of deities since ancient times. As long as believers faced the divine realm, there would be faith power flying over.
From a certain perspective, this mountain obtained more faith power than any other deity. Year after year, day after day, even if it was an ordinary mountain with its entire body cracked open, it would still become a land of supreme deities.
As a result, divine faith power gushed out from its cracks, shaking up all sides of the divine realm. Many people couldn't help but kowtow. It was this ancient mountain that protected the divine realm, stabilizing the universe.
An intense battle was taking place in the sky. The two sides clashed, causing the void to crack and extending into the cosmos. If not for the divine realm's ancient divine mountain's faith power being too boundless, continuously surging and stabilizing the earth, fire, wind, and water, the great earth below would have been completely destroyed.
"Extremely terrifying. One of his feet almost stepped into the Quasi-emperor realm, but he still couldn't break through in the end!" This was the judgment of the Great Sage from outside this region.
"They are indeed powerful, unrivalled in a region, able to sweep through the world. However, killing our Great Sage like that twenty years ago shouldn't be easy." They began to doubt.
Perhaps it could only be explained by the deity using a supreme divine weapon. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to kill a few Great Sage like that with his cultivation that wasn't even at the true Quasi-emperor realm.
Honglong!
The stars in the sky were all shattered. The two soared into the battlefield outside this region, and the battle became more and more terrifying. The heavens collapsed and the earth cracked, ghosts wept and deities howled.
"Old thief, after so many years, you really didn't make any progress. Your cultivation will forever stop at this level. Today, I will send you on your way and end the dark rule of the divine realm!" Qingyutian became more and more confident. With a raise of his hand, he plucked the stars and grabbed the moon. His power could shake deities, sweeping through everything before him. He forced the deity into a disadvantageous position.
"Traitor, do you really think I can't take you in? I endured for so many years just for you to appear. Today, I will suppress and kill you! "The old deity shouted.
Suddenly, the deity's voice shook the world like the ringing of a great bell. The old deity's dim power of faith suddenly flourished, and he released endless light that was incomparably divine.
His ash-gray hair danced wildly, and his eyes were like two snow-white blades. Every pore was spewing out sword energy, and every strand was hundreds of miles long. It was terrifying and overflowing into the heavens.
The old deity truly displayed his matchless divine might in the truest sense. He couldn't be stopped, and like a hot knife through butter, he charged forward to crush Qingyutian.
Everyone was shocked, and the Great Sage from outside this region sucked in a breath of cold air. They finally understood why he could kill the Great Sage. With this kind of power of faith on his body, half of his body entered the Quasi-emperor realm, and it was as if he had a foothold in that realm.
This was the magical use of the power of faith. He forcefully pushed himself into another realm that countless Great Sage yearned for but couldn't reach — the Quasi-emperor realm!
"In my eyes, the so-called conspiracy is nothing more than a joke. In front of absolute power, you all are no different from clowns that can't withstand a single blow!"
The old deity said in a deep voice. His entire body was submerged in endless light, and only a pair of pupils were as resplendent as golden lamps. They shot out two different beams of light, and the indistinct figure looked incomparably terrifying.
The most divine and holy power of faith appeared again, covering the sky and earth as it surged over, almost turning Qingyutian into dust!
Even if he almost became the Quasi-emperor, for the Great Sage, it was still an insurmountable moat. It wasn't something that could be resisted by humans, and it wasn't something that could be resisted by holy power.
Everyone shivered inwardly. This old deity was truly able to endure. After being doubted for so many years, he never revealed it, all for the sake of luring the snake out of its hole and killing the enemy in one fell swoop.
Wenglong!
However, things went beyond everyone's expectations. Qingyutian didn't die, and his body similarly erupted with resplendent light, as well as the power of faith that overflowed into the heavens.
"Do you think I don't understand the power of faith? How could the power you've accumulated for so many years be used up? I just wanted to cut off your path of retreat, not allowing the power of faith to belong to you." Qingyutian shouted.
The divine radiance on his body shone, making the entire foreign battlefield rumble. The stars and moon fell, and the sun became dim, as if it was going to destroy this heavenly domain.
"Your bloodline … established the inheritance of faith in the other ancient regions, ignited the divine flame, and sealed yourself as a deity?" The old deity was shocked. This was the return of a true deity, and it was many times more troublesome and terrifying than he had imagined.
"Correct, my three generations worked hard to establish an even greater ancient land of faith, even more powerful than you!" Qingyutian roared, rushing forward murderously.
"So that's how it is. You have a divine deity, and the supreme divine artifact withdrew out of consideration for your bloodline and your grandfather." The old deity said to himself.
"That's why you will definitely lose. Hand over your life!" Qingyutian shouted.
At the same time, several divine elders in the divine domain suddenly used magical force, shattering the old deity's divine position. The same thing happened in the ancestral lands of the various great clans as well. The old deity's divine statue was broken into pieces, destroyed by someone.
This was to break the foundation and destroy the source of faith.
"You …" The old deity was furious. He never thought that so many people would betray him. His subordinates stabbed him with a knife at the crucial moment.
The most terrifying thing was that the divine position in the divine domain collapsed, making his mind tremble. The endless pure power of faith within his body became unstable.
Hong!
This battle seemed to have lost all suspense. The old deity suffered a great defeat, and almost all of the power of faith scattered. His entire body ignited, turning into a strand of flowing light before disappearing into the cosmos.
Qingyutian entered the main divine domain and obtained the divine position, becoming the ruler of this generation.
It was clear that the old deity couldn't stir up any more trouble. His body was old and weak, and the power of faith had almost been scattered. Now, he no longer had the ability to fight for supremacy in the divine domain.
The Great Sage from the outer realms frowned. Although the old deity had left in defeat, there was a new deity in the divine domain. This wasn't good news for them. The supreme divine artifact, the Spiritual Treasure Celestial Being's formation diagram, was like an asura sword hanging over their heads. Once discovered, they would die without a doubt.
However, the changes in the situation exceeded everyone's expectations. It didn't end there. On that day, the old deity returned and entered the dangerous land that produced the Divine Demonic Liquid.
This was a terrifying place. For so many years, only deities could enter and exit. The rest couldn't.
"It's said that the divine domain is the land of the supreme deities, but if you aren't a deity, you won't know its origins. This is clearly a prison. This is a cursed land. Once you enter, faith will become a shackle. The bloodline of the divine domain is destined to be a prisoner forever! "
The old deity muttered to himself as he walked forward step by step.
"The ancient great emperors are existences that even the deities have no choice but to revere. Their corpses and evils can double the curse. In the past, I didn't dare to come here because I was afraid that my dao fruit would turn into nothingness. But now, I don't care. I'm going to bury the traitor of the divine domain with me! "
The old deity revealed his true form. Without the protection of divine light, he was just a skinny old man. He was truly old and frail. His hair was gray and his skin was devoid of luster. His flesh and blood were shriveled. It was a far cry from his usual divine appearance.
He knew how to enter and exit the dangerous land. He stepped on the correct path and went straight in. He avoided the terrifying demonic runes and approached the giant coffin.
"Ah …" He roared. His whole body was in pain. The remaining power of faith was burning. That giant coffin seemed to possess some kind of magical power. It made his whole body shake violently as blazing light shot into the sky.
The Great Emperor's ancient coffin overflowed with traces of dao, turning the power of faith into ashes. It was like a moth in a flame, no longer existing.
The old deity himself was almost destroyed. At the crucial moment, he made up his mind and threw away all the power of faith, completely losing his divine position.
"All of you should be buried with me!" He roared loudly. His hands moved about, and terrifying traces appeared one after another. Then, he took out a strange divine monument. It shattered heaven and earth and blasted open a large hole in the void. He tore open his chest. Blood continuously flowed out, dripping onto the nine-layered coffin from the legendary era. He was going to open the coffin.
"What a pity, a true ancient divine monument." He said to himself.
That large hole connected to the divine domain. It was clear that he wanted to use the coffin to suppress the divine domain and destroy all the power of faith there. He wanted to erase the divine position so that there would be no deities in this world.
"What is he doing? Where are Ziyue and Ji Haoyue? They shouldn't be appearing, right?" Pang Bo asked doubtfully.
Ye Fan didn't say anything and paid close attention. They just happened to come here and wanted to see how the Ji siblings were doing. They didn't expect to see this scene.
"Honglong!"
That day, the divine domain shook greatly. A large hole appeared in the void and an ancient coffin appeared. Endless dao patterns fell down and wiped out the endless power of faith!
"Ah …" Everyone in the divine domain was alarmed and cried out loudly.
"Pu!"
Qing Yutian who had just ascended to the divine position directly flew outwards. It was because his body was burning. The endless power of faith within his body turned into the most terrifying flames.
"The nine-layered ancient coffin from the legendary era had a great emperor buried within it … how could this type of thing appear in the divine domain?" Qing Yutian cried out loudly. His entire body was cracking apart. The light of faith became the most terrifying purgatory flames, turning him into a great torch.
"No!" Everyone cried out loudly. There were some who were called divine elders, as well as Holy Palace Masters and even more so saintesses. They were also consecrated by the people of this world and had divine positions. They enjoyed the world's incense and refined the power of faith.
At this moment, these people all suffered serious injuries. This was an unimaginable calamity that engulfed the entire ancient region.
"Ah …" As the divine elder closest to the great emperor's ancient coffin turned into ashes, the others were horrified to the extreme. They all fled for their lives and quickly expelled the power of faith within their bodies. It was because this type of thing was burning.
Now, this was fatal. It could even kill a deity!
Everyone was shocked, including the great clans outside the divine domain. When they received the news, they all hurried over and watched all of this with stupefied expressions.
Many people already knew that the nine-layered coffin from the legendary era had descended on the other shore and sunk into a dangerous place. However, no one knew that this was actually the most powerful weapon against the divine domain.
The people in the divine domain suddenly understood. No wonder the old deity became more and more low-profile all these years and never entered that dangerous place. He didn't even drink the Demonic Liquid that appeared.
At this time, Qing Yutian, the great divine elders, saintesses, and several great palace masters all fled, doing everything they could to get rid of the power of faith. At the same time, they summoned supreme divine artifacts to use the formation diagram to resist the nine-layered coffin.
"Why is it like this? Why is the great emperor's coffin suppressing our divine domain?"
"It's … the old deity, he's gone mad. He actually returned and wants to take us down with him."
The people of the divine domain were all terrified. They all cried out loudly.
The old deity's hair was scattered about. His chest had been cut open, and what dripped out was true heart blood. A single drop was equivalent to over a hundred drops of divine blood. He didn't have that many drops in his body, and now, he had used them all.
The nine-layered coffin required divine blood to open. Now that several layers had been opened, it was obvious that he wanted to open them all and destroy this place.
"You all have to die for stealing my divine position!" he laughed bitterly.
Rumble!
Qing Yutian exploded. The power of faith in his body was too vast and simply inexhaustible. It burned and exploded in front of the opened coffin.
Meanwhile, the old deity was like a moth in the flames, about to turn into flying ashes!
"The deity is dead. From this day forth, the divine domain will have no deities!" The blood in many people began to boil.
The Bull Demon King, the Sacred Spirit Capital, and the other Great Sage all appeared. All of their expressions changed!
Sang Gu, the Golden Snake Ruler, Di Tian, the Great Demonic God, the Heaven Devouring Beast, the Goddess of the divine race, and the Gold-eating Beast also appeared. All of their expressions changed unpredictably.
They knew that the absence of deities in this world meant that no one could suppress them anymore. A chaotic era had arrived. The ancient Tree of Life in the divine domain and the formation diagram of the Numinous Treasure Celestial Being would incite a storm!
