Return of the Ancient Gods

The Great Chu Dynasty has ten thousand mountains.

Under the pine and stone stream, a middle-aged man was meditating, deducing the mysteries of fate with one hand, looking far to the east with a deep gaze, muttering to himself:

"It's finally here. All the suffering is just a stepping stone for you to spread your wings and fly high. Let's see how far you can go."

Not long after, Feng Qing of the Phoenix Clan brought his little master to escape from the Heavenly Court's pursuit and rushed here across millions of miles.

"It's almost there. As long as we reach the forbidden land of the gods, you, my little master, will be saved!" Looking down at the little phoenix sleeping soundly in his arms, Feng Qing sped up a lot. His injuries worsened, blood soaked through his clothes, and his life force was weak.

"Remnant of the Phoenix Clan, do you think you can survive by entering the forbidden land of the gods? In the nine heavens and ten earths, no matter where you escape to, the result will be the same."

The one chasing Feng Qing and the others this time was a powerful Lord Realm warrior dressed in white, leading a team of Heaven's long-renowned golden armored guards. Although there were only a hundred of them, they were all above the Heavenly God Realm and very powerful.

He had already come here, but the other party was still pressing him hard. Feng Qing had no choice but to look up to the sky and scream for help, hoping it would work:

"Your Highness, I am Feng Qing, the chief guard of the Phoenix Clan. Today the Phoenix Clan is in great trouble, please lend a helping hand!"

"The Phoenix Clan must be destroyed. No one can save you. Just give up!" The White-robed Lord laughed wildly, but the magic weapon in his hand was not slow at all and wiped out the roots.

The Lord in White was about to take action when a beam of golden light came and knocked him and his golden-armored guards out, saving Feng Qing.

The golden body of Dharma descended from the sky!

"Who is it that dares to attack me?" The Lord in white cursed. It was such a shame and humiliation that he was attacked while acting on behalf of God.

On the contrary, Feng Qing felt relieved. He looked up at the image in the sky with gratitude. His joy immediately vanished and his face turned ugly:

The person who appeared before him was not the princess he was expecting, but a middle-aged man.

Feng Qing naturally recognized the person, but he couldn't help but be surprised at how fast the other person grew.

"Are you the running dogs of Heaven? You are not welcome here, get out!" The middle-aged man glanced at her and said sternly.

“How dare you! How can we allow you to blaspheme the majesty of Heaven!” The Lord in white was furious and wanted to kill them all immediately.

However, the middle-aged man had already made his move, and a white mist gushed out, shocking the people in Heaven and making them dizzy.

When they opened their eyes, Feng Qing and the other two were nowhere to be seen.

"Do you think hiding in the devil's land will help? I can't get rid of the hatred in my heart unless I drag you out and tear you into pieces! I firmly believe that my child will never let people down." The Lord in White gnashed his teeth in hatred. He was tricked and attacked by others, and now he rescued them in front of him. This is intolerable.

"I firmly believe that my child will not disappoint anyone."

However, the Golden Armored Guards, who had always been fearless and brave, hesitated at this moment:

"My Lord, didn't it say that everyone's cultivation level in the Demon Land will be suppressed to below the True God Realm? If we rush in, will we fall into the enemy's trap?"

"What are you afraid of? Even if we are all at the same level, which one of us is not invincible at the same level, and an existence that looks down on the nine heavens and ten earths?" The White-robed Lord shouted angrily, determined to charge in.

"If we don't eradicate this daring person, how can we maintain the dignity and prestige of the Heavenly Court?"

Led by the Lord in White, the Golden Armored Guards charged in formation with high spirits. Soon, not a single piece of armor was left alive. Only the Lord in White was beaten into a pig's head and thrown out.

"I don't care what you do outside, but it's not allowed here. Gods and ghosts should retreat, the peace here cannot be destroyed!" A long voice sounded in the void, stirring and moving.

"Damn it, I fell into your trap and was tricked. If you're capable, come out and fight me in a fair fight." The White-robed Lord kept vomiting blood, his face looked as ugly as pig liver, but he was still stubborn and shouting, not believing that he could not crush the opponent with all his strength as long as the opponent dared to come out.

Not long after, the golden body Dharma image really rushed out. The White-robed Lord fought with it with all his strength, but was defeated in less than three moves. Without caring about his face, he turned around and fled for his life.

But this time the middle-aged man didn't intend to give up and chased after him.

The White-Robed Lord was defeated and fled, Feng Qing and the others escaped for the time being, but the following situation was awkward:

"The Phoenix Clan has undergone a great change. The Phoenix King has been killed and the Phoenix Clan has fallen apart. I hope you can put aside your past grudges and save the little master's life!"

"I am indeed the only one in the world who can save you, but why? Why should we let bygones be bygones?" The middle-aged man said angrily with a stern look on his face:

"Have you forgotten the evil things you did in the past, killing the Nanchu ancestor spirit, causing my country to decline and being bullied for a hundred years? Now that you are in trouble, you ask us for help? How shameless!"

"We are of the same roots, and now the Phoenix clan has also received retribution. Can't you forget the past?" Feng Qing had no way to refute. It was true that they had gone too far back then, and in the current situation, they could only beg for a little mercy from the other party.

"I can't forget, but I can promise to protect you on one condition..."

Feng Qing looked embarrassed and could not accept it. He wanted to bargain:

"Other conditions are fine, but can we negotiate and change it to something else if we want the young master to be a spiritual pet? How can Feng Wang Demai be insulted like this?"

Before Feng Qing finished speaking, he was sent out of the Shiwan Mountains. In the end, it was only when the little phoenix nodded that the middle-aged man changed his mind:

Feng Qing turned into a stream of light and disappeared, and the little phoenix degenerated into an egg and was sent into the distance.

As for the Lord of White in Heaven, he was being chased and killed by the middle-aged man. He could not escape even after fleeing to the nine heavens and ten earths, and finally had to flee back to Heaven.

The towering Heavenly Palace is solemn and sacred, surrounded by fairy mist, colorful lights, and endless Taoist music. There are also goddesses dancing around the pillars. Unlike usual days, there is a more festive atmosphere here today.

The Lord in White fell through the air, stretched out his hand to ask for help from the Great Elder who was in charge of order, but his voice was weak and his strength was exhausted, and he was in danger.

"Great Elder, save me..."

The Great Elder mentioned by the White-Robed Lord is one of the most powerful gods in heaven, favored by the Emperor of Heaven, the God King Tianyuan!

No matter how strong that man is, that's all.

Seeing the White-robed Lord in such an awkward state, the Great Elder was very displeased and angrily rebuked him:

"How can you be so flustered?"

The Lord in White wanted to say more, but a sharp sword light took his life directly. The middle-aged man raised his sword and swaggered towards the Heavenly Palace.

"Bastard!" The Great Elder was furious and immediately used all his strength to kill the opponent. The death of a lord was not a big deal, but if this person was not eliminated, what face would the Heavenly Court and himself have?

The two men fought fiercely, but this time the Great Elder of Heaven was still defeated.

In the final close combat, the Great Elder was even traumatized:

The other person's voice, appearance, and even the slightly open pores were deeply imprinted in his mind and could not be shaken off. His breathing and everything around him came to a standstill. He felt clearly how close death was to him at that moment, and how isolated and helpless he was.

The commotion was so loud that even the Emperor of Heaven was startled and came out. He descended into the void with a solemn appearance and shouted in a low voice:

"Why don't you stop?"

The middle-aged man had a stern expression on his face. He looked at the Emperor of Heaven and instead of being panicked, he showed a hint of pride.

Without saying much, he swung his sword towards the Emperor of Heaven. The sword was sharp and without any fear, carrying the power to destroy the world, but it was easily blocked by the opponent.

The Emperor of Heaven flicked his fingers and supreme divine power burst out, shocking everyone back, shaking the void, rippling light waves, and the middle-aged man was cut into two pieces.

Seeing this, the Great Elder and the others had no time to recover and adjust, they quickly knelt down and kowtowed, bowed and shouted:

"The Emperor of Heaven is mighty, show my divine power!"

But in the next second, the elder who was just in high spirits saw the body of the middle-aged man who was killed turned into a stream of light and disappeared, and he was horrified:

Dharma?

"What an interesting man. He proves his Dao with martial arts and wants to use my help to achieve a breakthrough. What a dare." The Emperor of Heaven praised him and ordered the great elders and others below:

"You don't need to worry about this man. His fate is predetermined. He can't make it through this hurdle. Just don't provoke him and let him be."

"Yes." The elder was unwilling but did not dare to disobey. He bowed his head humbly and replied, but he had another idea in mind.

"How can we ignore such a dangerous existence and allow him to threaten the Heavenly Palace? I was originally afraid that he was too powerful, but now that he is at the critical moment of breakthrough, it is the best!"

Then, the Emperor of Heaven slowly opened his mouth and asked in another direction of the void:

"Ziwei, what is the fate of this era?"

"In an era of great strife, the sky tilts to the south. There may be dragons and tigers lurking around. It's ominous!" A voice came from the void.

"It is a forbidden place!" The Emperor of Heaven used the Great Destiny Technique to deduce and suddenly realized.

"I'll leave these matters to you guys to handle!"

"It's him again, and this forbidden place again!" The Great Elder was angry. "We must not tolerate him, we must eradicate him completely!"

After a while, the void broke open, and a sword light came through the air from thousands of miles away. The great elder was shocked, but unable to block it. Half of his body was cut off in the sword light.

"what!"
