Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Just as Lin Wudao was carefully studying the location of the Divine Kings’ graves, the Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu arrived before him on divine lights.
“Brother Ren, Night Demon City is quite huge. At its peak, it was probably as big as the Tushan family’s Qingshan Divine City.”
The Mad Daoist explained his discovery.
“I went to the center of Night Demon City and found a broken temple there. It should be worshiping the Lishan Great God of the former Taiyin family. In addition, behind the temple is a divine path. If I’m not wrong, it should lead to the Lishan Divine Kingdom.”
Qin Daofu continued.
Temple? Divine path?
Hearing this, Lin Wudao’s spirits were lifted.
“Let’s go and take a look.”
After saying that, the three of them immediately rode divine lights and arrived at the center of Night Demon City.
An ancient temple stood in the empty ruins. In the temple was a huge statue.
Unfortunately, due to war, the temple had suffered serious damage and more than half of it had collapsed.
The statue of the temple God was also destroyed. It had been beheaded, leaving only a huge torso.
At the same time, through the temple, Lin Wudao looked at the sky and saw an ancient divine path extending down.
Compared to the badly damaged Temple of Heaven, although the divine path had also been damaged, many places were still intact. On it, one could vaguely see ancient divine guards that even vaguely emitted a weak aura of life as if they were alive.
At the end of the divine path was an ancient golden door. The surface was outlined with gorgeous and mysterious patterns. Although it had been eroded by time and was slightly mottled, there were no signs of decay.
Looking over, Lin Wudao could feel the powerful divine might emitted by the golden door. It was as if he could see a Great God who supported the heavens and the earth.
“Brother Ren, Night Demon City is completely ruined. Even the last bit of treasure has probably been taken away by Wu Qingyu and the others. If there really are divine treasures, then they will only exist in the Lishan Divine Kingdom. Behind the huge golden door at the end of the divine path should be the Divine Kingdom that the Lishan Great God established in the past. Do you have a way to enter?” The Mad Daoist pondered and asked.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao nodded.
“Of course.”
Boom!
With that, he used the power of the system to wrap the Mad Daoist and Qin Daofu up with his large hands and disappear from the spot.
When they reappeared, they had already arrived at a huge square.
This place was pitch black.
Just like Night Demon City, the surroundings were a scene of ruins. The originally vast sky seemed to have been forcefully pierced through as a terrifying void storm wreaked havoc above.
On top of that, there were many rotting corpses in the square. These corpses were at least True Gods, and amongst them, there was no lack of Heavenly Gods and Divine Kings.
Under the corrosion of endless years and the aura of destruction, even the corpses of Gods were forcefully decayed, reduced to bone dust.
“It seems that this part of the Lishan Divine Kingdom is the real battlefield. The entire Divine Kingdom has been destroyed. The War of Gods that erupted back then must have been very terrifying.”
The Mad Daoist swept his gaze across the surroundings and sighed.
Less than one-tenth of the Lishan Divine Kingdom remained. The sky had been pierced through, and the Divine Kingdom was reduced to ruins. There were countless corpses of Gods on the ground.
The intensity of the War of Gods back then was imaginable.
“Brother Ren, old lunatic, look over there! There seems to be another temple.”
Suddenly, Qin Daofu raised his finger and pointed at the depths of the ruins.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao and the Mad Daoist looked over and saw an ancient temple.
Compared to the temple in Night Demon City, the temple before them had an ancient aura and was more majestic. Although it was also dilapidated, there was more than one statue worshiped within.
Furthermore, the statue of the Lishan Great God was also beheaded.
“Tsk, tsk. What sin did the Lishan Great God commit? Forget about his divinity as a temple God being obliterated, but even his statue was destroyed? How big of a grudge is this?”
The Mad Daoist was surprised.
The scene before them was obviously the result of someone’s revenge. The grudge must have been huge.
“Brother Ren, the God of Li Mountain is a temple God worshiped by the Taiyin family, but the Taiyin family only has nine great divine races. Why are there ten statues in this temple?”
Qin Daofu, who had entered the temple, asked curiously.
There were a total of ten statues in Lishan temple. Each statue symbolized a God.
Since there were ten statues in the temple, there must be ten Gods. But according to what Qin Daofu knew, the Taiyin family only had nine great divine races.
“Could it be that the Taiyin family doesn’t only consist of the nine great divine races but instead ten?” Qin Daofu asked in surprise.
“No. The Taiyin lineage doesn’t refer to the nine great divine races like the Taiyi divine race. Instead, it refers to the Taiyin divine race led by the Lishan Great God. In this temple, there are nine statues that worship the ancestors of the nine great divine races, and the remaining statue is the God of the Lishan divine race. The nine great divine races in the outside world are the divine races under the command of the God of Li Mountain, and the Lishan divine race is the orthodox divine race of the Taiyin lineage. It is also the source of faith for the God of Li Mountain. To put it simply, the Lishan divine race is the root of the God of Li Mountain, and the nine great divine races are just branches and leaves. Whether in terms of closeness to God, foundation, or strength, the nine great divine races and the Lishan divine race are not on the same level,” Lin Wudao explained.
The Lishan divine race?
Hearing this, Qin Daofu nodded thoughtfully.
“Is it the distinction between primary and secondary?”
“Yes.”
“Brother Ren, you previously said that there were world-shocking divine treasures in the Lishan Divine Kingdom. Now, the entire Divine Kingdom has been destroyed, so those divine treasures must have been destroyed, right?” Qin Daofu frowned and asked.
Hearing this, Lin Wudao looked at the God of Li Mountain worshiped on the altar above, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.
“Whether there are any divine treasures, won’t we know once we ask the God of Li Mountain?”
What? Ask the God of Li Mountain?
Qin Daofu was shocked.
“Brother Ren, didn’t the God of Li Mountain already die…?”
“Yes. The God of Li Mountain has indeed fallen before ancient times. Even his divinity has been completely obliterated. However, he still has a strand of obsession left, which is attached to this statue.”
Lin Wudao pointed at the statue in the distance.
“God of Li Mountain, come out and meet us,” He said calmly.
However, after his voice fell, the statue of Li Mountain on the altar still did not move at all.
“Ha. You want it the hard way. Qin Daofu, go smash the statue.”
“Alright!”
Qin Daofu immediately took out the Netherworld Pagoda and was about to control it to smash the statue.
“Wait.”
A dignified and weak voice sounded in the temple.
Immediately after, as a bright divine light rose, a weak phantom slowly appeared on the statue.
It was the God of Li Mountain, Ji Cang!
