Chapter 240: Reflections

"The Blood Star... is gone!"

"Gone!"

In the mortal realm, in the southern region, all the ancient gods and even ordinary people looked up at the sky.

At the enormous gap, the once massive Blood Sun had disappeared without a trace.

What does this represent? The ordinary people didn't understand, but how could the ancient gods not know?

An elderly man with tears streaming down his face said, "The Evil God... is gone!"

The Evil God, who had ravaged the mortal realm for tens of thousands of years, the one above the true gods...

Gone.

He couldn't help but recall the recent tearing of the sky and the furious roar of the god above.

The Origin Heavenly Venerable from the northern region, dressed in a blood-colored robe, entered the sky.

Five thousand divine beings followed, vowing to exterminate the Evil God!

When the ancient gods of the mortal realm saw a glimpse of the god above's eyes, they understood.

This battle was fundamentally unwinnable.

The power of the god above was beyond imagination.

His body was even larger than the mortal realm itself.

The resources obtained by the ancient gods, born and raised in the mortal realm, combined, were not even a fraction of what the god above possessed.

Defeat was inevitable.

But now...

The Blood Sun that had reflected the countless years of the mortal realm had disappeared.

The mortal realm had won.

The Origin Heavenly Venerable had won.

But...

"Lishan Great Venerable... has fallen."

"Bai Xi Venerable... is gone!"

An old man with white hair flashed into a Cave Mansion. When he saw that all thirty lanterns hanging in the room had gone out, his heart was filled with immense grief.

The ancient gods who had gone to the northern region had left a trace of their aura on the life lamps.

When the flames in the lanterns went out, it meant that they had died outside the sky.

The old man with white hair looked up at the sky, hoping to see the ancient gods falling like shooting stars.

Unfortunately, he was destined to fail.

At this moment, in the city of Feihuang, the daughter of the city lord, Huang Mengling, had a sorrowful expression.

She couldn't help but recall the first time she met that young man.

He was at a feast.

She invited him to leave the threatening place of Qingshui Village and come to the city with her, even recommending him to join the Ancient God Alliance.

That strange ancient god refused and acted eccentrically.

But who would have known that he could...

Everything from the past seemed like a dream before her eyes.

At this moment, a weak voice sounded in Huang Mengling's ear.

"My injuries have healed by thirty percent. Has the Feiling Mansion sent any Evil Gods?"

The one transmitting the message was the ancient god Yuan, who had been injured and asleep all this time.

When Feihuang City was in danger, she had awakened, but quickly fell silent again.

Even though she was healing, she was constantly worried about the situation in the Desolate City.

Origin Heavenly Venerable killed the incoming evil god, which would surely provoke a counterattack from the evil god.

Upon hearing Gu Shenyuan's words, Huang Mengling was momentarily stunned.

She didn't know how to answer this question.

She hesitated for a moment and finally said, "The evil god... is gone."

"Gone?" Gu Shenyuan's voice carried a hint of confusion and incomprehension.

Suddenly, she looked up at the sky, her eyes moved, and then she was shocked.

She heard Huang Mengling's somewhat desolate voice in her ears.

"Yesterday, Origin Heavenly Venerable took several ancient gods from the village and rebelled against the true gods... They left the celestial canopy and never returned."

...

The night was hazy, and the ancestral land of the ancient clan was silent.

It was not the time for the ancestral land to open, and at this moment, it was empty, with no one inside.

Just then, a flash of blood appeared, and Qi Yuan's figure appeared in the ancestral land.

He looked at the ancestral land without joy or sorrow.

"It truly is the ancestral land. Even now, I can feel a strong sense of danger."

Within the ancestral land, countless puppet gods lay dormant.

The current Qi Yuan was a Yang God, yet not a Yang God.

In his battles with Blood Yang Great Saint and Blood God Great Saint, he had actually taken advantage of them.

These two had coveted the Mortal Heart Realm for a long time and had absorbed too much Innate aura, which is why they were immobilized by Qi Yuan and then killed.

However, this immobilization was not permanent.

Turning them into puppets was not even worth considering.

God Thunder Great Venerable, as well as Zhu Zhuangshi and others, willingly became a part of Qi Yuan through the assimilation method of the evil gods.

This was the true "me."

Innate beings represented infinite possibilities.

In the Ash Water World, ordinary Yin Gods who worshipped Qi Yuan as their leader and tried to assimilate themselves could not become Qi Yuan's "me."

The concept of "all beings are me" was actually a law, but it was limited to the Mortal Heart Realm.

If it could be applied universally, even in many universes, then... it would not be an ordinary law.

Qi Yuan's gaze swept across the ancestral land, his expression deep and profound.

He shifted his figure and landed in an empty space.

There seemed to have been a tower here before, but now... there was none.

"The aura here... feels somewhat familiar."

The disappearing tower in front of him gave Qi Yuan a sense of familiarity.

"The Observing God Technique?"

Qi Yuan murmured, starting to understand.

With his current realm and understanding, the law of energy conservation still existed.

The Observing God Technique that appeared out of thin air consumed some special towers within the ancestral land.

"The civilization of this ancestral land is quite impressive. I wonder... if it belongs to this... universe."

Qi Yuan sighed.

He paused in the ancestral land for a moment before his figure dissipated.

"Why hasn't my mission to protect Qingshui Village... been marked as completed?"

The night was hazy.

At this moment, Qingshui Village was unusually quiet.

However, outside Qingshui Village, there were many ancient gods stationed.

Most of these ancient gods held respect in their hearts, looking at Qingshui Village ahead as if on a pilgrimage.

"The power of a village, all led by the Great Venerable. Qingshui Village... should be the Sacred Land of the mortal realm."

"Unfortunately, we won't be able to wait for their return."

Someone lamented, filled with sorrow.

But at this moment, two cunning ancient gods secretly communicated with each other.

"Origin Heavenly Venerable is so powerful, there must be secrets in Qingshui Village!" One of the ancient gods' eyes gleamed, their body trembling slightly. "Wang Can, your Divine Domain specializes in stealth. With so many ancient gods here, you activate your Divine Domain, and we'll secretly enter Qingshui Village. We'll split the gains fifty-fifty!"

Wang Can hesitated, "Origin Heavenly Venerable has just saved the world. Our actions might be... inappropriate."

"Gratitude is gratitude, and self-interest is self-interest... The opportunities in Qingshui Village would be wasted if we don't take advantage of them. We might as well benefit from it!" The man's eyes were greedy.

"But... if our actions are discovered in the mortal realm, we'll have nowhere to hide!"

"Hmph, we're communicating secretly, what's there to fear? No one can know our plans. Even if we obtain the opportunities in Qingshui Village in secret and are discovered, what can they do? Even if Origin Heavenly Venerable is reborn, so what?" The man said excitedly.

If it weren't for Wang Can's unique Divine Domain, the man wouldn't have cooperated with him. It would have been better for him to sneak in alone.

A greedy glint flashed in Wang Can's eyes, and he finally made a decision, "Let's do it!"

The two continued to communicate in secret, preparing to speak further, but suddenly stopped.

Not far from Wang Can, there was a slender woman holding a fox in her arms.

At this moment, the woman's body trembled slightly, and goosebumps appeared on her skin under her brown dress.

Wang Can's gaze suddenly changed, and his Divine Domain quietly unfolded at that moment.

He stared at the fox in the woman's arms.

That fox was his Heart Fox!

His Heart Fox could hear the transmission of cultivators!

"Zhao Qingyu, did you hear something?" Wang Can's Divine Domain unfolded, his eyes hiding a murderous intent.

Zhao Qingyu trembled, tightly holding onto his Heart Fox, "Senior, I didn't hear anything."

At this moment, she was both scared and angry, only wanting to escape.

"Is that so?" Wang Can smiled, "It seems like a misunderstanding."

However, he didn't release his Divine Domain.

Clearly, he had decided to keep Zhao Qingyu here.

But at this moment, a voice suddenly rang out.

"No wonder my mission hasn't been completed yet. So, there are still people coveting my Qingshui Village."

With this voice, a figure in a blood-colored robe appeared.

The man had long hair and a remarkably handsome face, like a divine being descending to earth.

Wang Can and the ancient god beside him were both stunned.

They were both incredibly shocked.

"Origin Heavenly Venerable!"

It was actually Origin Heavenly Venerable, he was still alive!

Zhao Qingyu trembled all over, her eyes shining brightly.

She really wanted to tell Origin Heavenly Venerable about the secret conversation she had just overheard, but she couldn't speak.

However, at this moment, a blood-colored light flashed by.

"Don't think that I can't hear you talking behind my back."

The bloody aura rushed into their Divine Domains, both of which were as fragile as thin paper.

The immensely powerful Divine Domains were completely defenseless and shattered directly.

Both of them were filled with fear, engulfed by the breath of death, and their bodies fell, unable to die any further.

Even until death, they didn't know why Origin Heavenly Venerable knew... about their plans.

Clearly, they were communicating secretly, and clearly, Zhao Qingyu was also being controlled.

With Wang Can's fall, the pressure on Zhao Qingyu suddenly disappeared, and she looked at Qi Yuan, solemnly bowing: "Thank you, Heavenly Venerable, for saving my life!"

At this moment, streams of light flashed by, indicating that the ancient gods near Qingshui Village had noticed the anomaly here.

When they saw Qi Yuan, these ancient gods were either shocked or excited.

Origin Heavenly Venerable... is actually still alive!

"We pay our respects to Origin Heavenly Venerable!"

"We pay our respects to Heavenly Venerable!"

Near Qingshui Village, more than ten ancient gods had gathered around Qi Yuan.

Qi Yuan glanced lightly at them.

At this time, an old man stepped forward, hunching his body: "May I ask, Heavenly Venerable, what happened to the evil gods?"

The Blood Sun disappeared, representing the fall of the True Gods.

But they didn't see it with their own eyes, so they were always worried.

"They're dead," Qi Yuan said calmly.

When the ancient gods on the scene received this news, the stone in their hearts finally fell, and they heard Qi Yuan continue.

"Qingshui Village is my territory, and outsiders are forbidden to enter."

The task of guarding Qingshui Village must continue.

The other ancient gods didn't react much to this. At this moment, they were still immersed in the fall of the evil gods.

At this time, Qi Yuan thought of something: "Before, I promised to hold a banquet in some cities, but unfortunately, I never went again.

These matters... I wonder if I can trouble you all?"

Many of the ancient gods were delighted to hear this.

Zhao Qingyu hurriedly stepped forward: "It is an honor for me to do things for Heavenly Venerable!"

Heavenly Venerable is still alive.

In this realm... who should be respected is clear.

"I'm counting on you."

After Qi Yuan finished speaking, he waved his hand.

"Please go back, everyone."

His figure also disappeared and entered Qingshui Village.

The original place.

The quiet Qingshui Village was no different from an ordinary village.

The crops in the fields were growing vigorously.

"Since I'm guarding Qingshui Village, then I'll move Qingshui Village."

"I am Qingshui Village, and Qingshui Village is me!"

With Qi Yuan's voice, Qingshui Village in front of them underwent a special change.

Stones, bricks, adobe, soil, trees, Spiritual Rice... all became ethereal and were instantly dragged into Qi Yuan's Divine Domain.

Qi Yuan's face turned pale for a moment, but then quickly returned to normal.

The sound of a game prompt came at this moment.
