Star Odyssey Chapter 2029

Chapter 2029

Inner worlds were the manifestation of a Semi-Progenitor's true power. After activating his inner world, Jiu Chi knew that he would be trapped by the mental network. However, Ancient G.o.d should suffer the same fate as well, as he would most likely be forced to use his own inner world to block Jiu Chi’s.

Ancient G.o.d remained indifferent. "I don't know what to tell you."

As he spoke, he raised up his right arm with his palm facing downwards. "My level of strength is different from yours."

The hand then fell, instantly shattering Jiu Chi's inner world and leaving the man seriously injured.

Jiu Chi was shocked, but the next moment, his body was seized by the mental network, and he was dragged away and trapped, just like Marquis Wu Yi.

The human Semi-Progenitor had wanted to unleash an explosive attack to drag Ancient G.o.d into the mental network with him, as there was no one who could stand up to Ancient G.o.d here. However, even after unleas.h.i.+ng his inner world, Jiu Chi had still failed to be a match for Ancient G.o.d. The exchange just now was no different from Ancient G.o.d crossing realms to defeat a Semi-Progenitor.

Furthermore, Jiu Chi was not an average Semi-Progenitor, as he had opened all three of his meridian points and absorbed Origin Matter. He was much stronger than Xian Lan, Xue Laogui, and many other Semi-Progenitors, but even then, Jiu Chi had been casually defeated by Ancient G.o.d who had essentially jumped realms to defeat him.

Jiu Chi was not the only one startled by this turn of events, as Elder Gong had also witnessed Ancient G.o.d’s strength. This was the power of the Seven SkyG.o.ds.

G.o.d of Mirrors, the others from G.o.ds' Origin, and various people who had fled to G.o.ds' Origin, including many people from the Neoverse’s wandering cities, all stared at Ancient G.o.d with eyes full of fear.

The strength that this person had just displayed far exceeded their understanding.

Not to mention the weaker people—even Elder Gong could not fathom the power that Ancient G.o.d possessed. The man had truly crossed realms to defeat a Semi-Progenitor. Even when looking through all of history, only a few had ever been capable of accomplis.h.i.+ng such a feat.

They could not stop this person. Actually, how could such a freak be stopped at all?

G.o.d of Mirrors trembled. At first, he had believed that the Aeternals could be stopped with the aid of the Rune Civilization’s ruins. After all, the drainage of stellular energy from the true universe had little effect on their strength. G.o.ds’ Origin thought that they were still strong enough to protect themselves, but clearly, such thoughts were too naive.

Suddenly, G.o.d of Mirrors remembered that even during the Rune Progenitor’s era, the Rune Civilization had been destroyed and razed into the current ruins that they possessed. The power of rune technology was not invincible.

G.o.d of Wind’s face had gone pale. Close by, the Cosmic Sect’s Elder Yao Shan and Elder Yuan Ke felt completely helpless for the first time.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d approached from the distance, and she also destroyed some of the ruins. This was the power of the Seven SkyG.o.ds.

Ancient G.o.d's eyes fell upon Elder Gong, and slowly, Ancient G.o.d’s hand rose up to grab at the human Semi-Progenitor.

It appeared that, to Ancient G.o.d, even Elder Gong was as weak as a child.

Countless stars revolved around Elder Gong's body. Against Ancient G.o.d, Elder Gong had no choice but to fight with everything he had. At this moment, a stream of energy swept through outer s.p.a.ce, blocking the falling hand before forming a person who turned to face Ancient G.o.d.

Ancient G.o.d frowned. "So it’s the Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique again."

The figure that had just appeared was a manifestation of Arch-Elder Zen’s Tri-Yang Ancestral Qi Technique.

"Do you really believe that a mere battle technique can stop me?" Ancient G.o.d casually slapped at the approaching figure. Snow fell from the hand of the figure as it retaliated with a terribly powerful attack, but it was completely ineffective against Ancient G.o.d.

Arch-Elder Zen, Xia Ji, and Qing Ping all appeared next to Elder Gong, their faces solemn.

"Leave him to me while you deal with the others," Arch-Elder Zen stated as he faced Ancient G.o.d.

Elder Gong softly replied, "Be careful. Jiu Chi was unable to do anything even though he unleashed his full strength."

Arch-Elder Zen took a deep breath. "I know."

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d approached while revealing a flirtatious smile. "This is quite interesting, but even if you block him, can you all stop me as well?"

A pair of scales appeared beneath the Chief Justice's feet and instantly spread out to appear beneath Forgotten Ruins G.o.d’s feet. "Let’s find out."

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d suddenly looked gloomy. "Are you underestimating me because of our first battle, little guy?"

The stars in the area flickered dimly, looking like they were about to collapse at any moment. The kneeling statues that held up G.o.ds' Origin started to shatter one by one.

When Semi-Progenitors fought, no one else could intervene.

The Technocracy’s mental network and the Ruin Civilization’s ruins were able to stop ordinary Semi-Progenitors, but they could not block the Seven SkyG.o.ds or the Twelve Marquises. After all, neither of them used the power of living people.

After all seventeen of the ruins were destroyed, G.o.ds' Origin was completely exposed to Aeternus’s forces.

Countless shoots of green bamboo rose up from below, piercing through every person they encountered. For as far as the eye could see, green bamboo fields were stained with blood.

G.o.d of Wind’s eyes went wide as she looked down in utter disbelief. Her body had also been impaled by a green bamboo shoot, and a terrible pain started to slowly overwhelm her mind. She did not want to die here. She desperately tried to break the bamboo shoot, but to someone like her, the bamboo was indestructible.

More shoots of bamboo shot into the sky, and one of them stabbed through her head. Half of her body hung from the bamboo, and the ground below was dyed red.

Countless people died to the bamboo. G.o.ds' Origin had Eighteen G.o.ds, who were their most talented youths. Except for G.o.d Taiyi and G.o.d Xiaobai, who had gone to the Tower of the Fifth and been taken to the Outerverse by Lu Yin, all the others had died here.

The Cosmic Sect’s Yao Ji had also been killed by a Semi-Progenitor level corpse king. He was just one of the many people who had died, and he had been crushed like an ant.

Elder Yao Shan's eyes grew bloodshot, and he charged at the Semi-Progenitor corpse king, only to also be obliterated.

Human powerhouses fell one after another, and countless corpses drifted through outer s.p.a.ce. G.o.ds' Origin was about to meet its end.

Countless howls of mourning and despair did nothing to stop the ma.s.sacre. While the Aeternals needed more corpse kings, there were more than enough humans around. Even a place like G.o.ds’ Origin was nothing more than a drop of water in a vast ocean, and thus the people here could be ma.s.sacred without restraint.

Countless people died, most of whom were not even left with an intact corpse.

Arch-Elder Zen had never felt so helpless before. He could do nothing to stop this. It was already amazing that he was able to hold back Ancient G.o.d.

Ancient G.o.d stared at Arch-Elder Zen. "Is this all that you have? Who is the third clone of your Tri-Yang Technique?"

To Arch-Elder Zen’s side stood the summoned Progenitor Hui, which was protected by a sourcebox array as it held back Ancient G.o.d. After Arch-Elder Zen heard Ancient G.o.d's question, a third stream of qi appeared behind him. "It's someone you’re familiar with."

Ancient G.o.d was surprised. "I see."

At this moment, a ma.s.sive spatial crack appeared above everyone. It looked as though the Fifth Mainland itself had been cut in half.

Ancient G.o.d, Arch-Elder Zen, and everyone else looked up at the same time.

Arch-Elder Zen’s eyes filled with antic.i.p.ation and nervousness. Did this sudden change indicate that the lockbreaking attempt had succeeded? After two months of all the Fifth Mainland’s most powerful Lockbreakers working on the sourcebox, that frozen battlefield had finally been opened. Whether this would prove to be a blessing or a curse was impossible to know.

Arch-Elder Zen could only trust in Mister Mu's words that this was humanity’s only hope.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d also looked up, and she turned to the north as she followed the overhead fissure to its origin. A frown appeared on her face. Why did it feel like a familiar presence had just pa.s.sed by?

An astral beast fell out of the spatial tear, and it let out a ferocious roar. Marquis Green Bamboo moved a hand, and a shoot of bamboo shot through s.p.a.ce to impale the creature. The astral beast possessed a power level of over a million, but it was less than an ant to someone like Marquis Green Bamboo.

The astral beast’s blood splattered through s.p.a.ce. Due to the creature’s ma.s.sive size, the downpour of blood covered half of G.o.ds' Origin when its body was pierced. The blood fell like raindrops upon G.o.ds' Origin.

Suddenly, Marquis Green Bamboo’s expression changed, and his bamboo snapped.

The astral beast was already dead, but there were five other figures on its back, all in various positions of standing, squatting, and half-kneeling.

These five individuals seemed to be in terrible shape, as most of their clothes were in tatters. Some of them held broken weapons, and one was even missing a good chunk of their body. But despite that, for some reason, everyone could feel these people’s unyielding determination to fight the moment they laid eyes on them. These five possessed an indescribable iron will.

Their aura instantly encompa.s.sed the entire battlefield that surrounded G.o.ds' Origin, and not even the Semi-Progenitors were able to overpower this aura.

Clearly, there were only five people, and they even looked half-dead. However, it was impossible to ignore any of them.

One of the five had a broken shoot of bamboo beneath his feet and a smaller piece in their hand. It appeared that this person had shattered Marquis Green Bamboo’s attack.

The marquis stared upwards, paying particular attention to the emblem on the man’s clothes. Marquis Green Bamboo felt like he had seen that symbol somewhere before.

Arch-Elder Zen stared at the five people in amazement. While they clearly possessed an iron will and were not weaklings, it was a pity that none of them were Semi-Progenitors. They were merely experts whose power levels were a bit more than a million, which would not be of much use on the current battlefield.

The hope that Mister Mu had referred to could not be just these five individuals.

"Team Resolution," Ancient G.o.d said slowly as he stared up at the five people.

Arch-Elder Zen was startled. Did Ancient G.o.d know these people?

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d was still a short distance away, but she was caught off guard by Ancient G.o.d’s comment. "Them? Hen Xin's Team Resolution? How are they here? They should have disappeared long, long ago."

Elder Gong and the rest of the human Semi-Progenitors all had blank expressions. Team Resolution? None of them had ever heard of this name.

Even Arch-Elder Zen had never heard this name.

Ancient G.o.d and Forgotten Ruins G.o.d were able to recognize these people, which showed that they were not nameless cultivators, but Arch-Elder Zen had read through all of the Hall of Honor’s ancient records, as well as the Mavis family’s records. Despite that, he had never encountered any mention of Team Resolution. Was Team Resolution even a name that had existed before?

The astral beast’s corpse moved through s.p.a.ce as it slid down the shoot of green bamboo. On the back of the corpse, the confusion in the five people’s eyes slowly faded as they got a clearer look at their surroundings.

They were not surprised to find themselves on a battlefield, as they had stood upon battlefields from the moment of their birth, even when they had not been conscious.

Of the five, the man who had been half-kneeling stood up. He raised the broken half of a greatsword that he wielded.

The squatting man also rose. He moved his arms, revealing strange gloves on his hands that were covered with ferocious spikes.

The eyes of all five swept the battlefield before they suddenly all focused on Ancient G.o.d. Their originally calm eyes revealed complete shock, and then they all dropped to their knees as one. “Team Resolution greets the Dao Monarch."

Arch-Elder Zen's heart dropped. This was the end. These people were actually part of Aeternus.

Ancient G.o.d remained perfectly calm. He had already antic.i.p.ated this reaction.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d looked at her companion in a playful manner.

Elder Gong sighed. This was truly terrible luck. Apparently, quite a few of the people who had been released from that frozen battlefield were on the Aeternals’ side. Even though they were clearly human, they were deferential towards Ancient G.o.d, which indicated that they had betrayed humanity and turned to Aeternus. This would do nothing to help humanity’s morale.

Ancient G.o.d quietly stared at the five people who were bowing to him before finally slowly asking, "Where is Hen Xin?"

One of the five figures raised his head. He was the most badly wounded of the five, and half of his body was even missing, but the other four clearly followed him. "The gatemaster is missing, but he should not be far."

The man looked at Ancient G.o.d with an odd expression. "Dao Monarch, what are you doing?"

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d laughed in a delighted manner.

All five of the new arrivals turned to look at her. The person who had just answered Ancient G.o.d frowned when he noticed Forgotten Ruins G.o.d. This woman looked very familiar.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d smiled as she looked at the five. She paid particular attention to their leader. "I remember you, though I’ve forgotten your name. You followed Hen Xin back then and led Team Resolution, right?"

"Who are you?" The man was confused.

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d's mouth curled up into a smile. "My name is w.a.n.g Miaomiao."

The man was stunned. "The matriarch of the Fifth Mainland’s w.a.n.g family?"

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from ReadNovelFull.com.

"Hehe, unfortunately, I’m no longer the w.a.n.g family’s matriarch.” Forgotten Ruins G.o.d continued to smile at the man. "I'm a part of Aeternus, one of the Seven SkyG.o.ds. I’m Forgotten Ruins G.o.d."

The man had no idea what was going on. "What are the Seven SkyG.o.ds?"

Forgotten Ruins G.o.d laughed and pointed at Ancient G.o.d. "Your Dao Monarch has become Ancient G.o.d of the Aeternals. Hehe, this is truly interesting—the underlings who once wors.h.i.+ped him in the past are now finding out that he surrendered to humanity’s most despised enemy. How do you feel about that, Ancient G.o.d?"
