King of Gods

The moment the Heaven Lord displayed the power of the Heavenly Dao God Eye, the Life God understood that she was no match, so she decided to retreat.

At present, the entirety of the Life Sacred Land’s forces had gathered within the Sacred Land’s array and had adopted a defensive position.

The clouds of mystery hanging around the Heavenly Dao God Eye had also somewhat cleared. The Heavenly Dao God Eye was just the Heaven Lord’s name for it. It took a different form than the other Eight Great God Eyes and could not be compared to them. The Heaven Lord’s ultimate objective was the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye!

“Life God, since you are not willing to submit, only death awaits you. Before the Heavenly Dao God Eye, even Gods will die!” The Heaven Lord looked down on the Life Sacred Land, his tone brimming with confidence.

He already had a faint sliver of the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye’s power. If he couldn’t even defeat one of the weakest of the Eight Great God Eyes – the Life God Eye – with this power, then he was truly letting it down.

And once killed the Life God, he would take an enormous stride forward in his plan. If he killed a God Eye and replaced one of the eyes of the Heavenly Dao God Eye with its power, the Heavenly Dao God Eye would evolve once more. If he killed just a single God Eye, what came next would be much easier.

“Killing a God?” Zhao Feng’s mind trembled. Only madmen would get such ideas, but Zhao Feng wasn’t sure if the Heaven Lord was incapable of this feat or not.

At this moment, the Eye Intent of the Heavenly Dao God Eye was stronger than the Life God Eye. There was no disputing this fact. Besides that, the Heaven Lord had his Ancient Race bloodline and perhaps other unknown tricks.

In short, the Heaven Lord was truly terrifying. Otherwise, the Life God would not have chosen to retreat.

“Lord God, why don’t you get in touch with your good friends?” God King Radiant Peak messaged the Life God. The friends he referred to were the other God Eye Deities.

In the past, the Heaven Lord was merely a God King expert, so the Life God naturally wouldn’t seek help from other God Eye Deities simply for the sake of one God King, but the situation was different now.

“I’ve already sent a message.” The Life God’s expression was dour as she stared at the distant Heaven Lord.

The moment the Heaven Lord revealed his God Eye’s power, the Life God knew that this war would be very difficult to end. At that moment, she asked for help from the Divine Punishment God and Spacetime God.

“Attack!” Hovering in the air, the Heaven Lord truly did seem like the god of the world as he gave the order to attack.

Down below, all the members of the Heaven Defying Faction surged forward to surround the Life Sacred Land. At this moment, even the Illusion God Race and Nightmare Beast King, who had not completely yielded yet, changed their attitudes.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

Attacks began to rain down on the Life Sacred Land.

“Protect the Sacred Land!” the Life God called out.

Bzzzz!

The Life God Eye turned, pouring Life energy into the Sacred Land array to strengthen its defenses.

At the same time, the other experts of the Sacred Land used their Divine Power to resist the attacks of the Heaven Defying Faction.

“Hmph!” The Heaven Lord snorted and unleashed a world-shaking ancient energy.

Boom! Bang!

He swung his fists, firing off fists made of gold and silver energy.

At the same time, he circulated the power of his Heavenly Dao Eye. The world suddenly changed as the Heaven Lord took control of its laws.

Kabooom!

The two golden-silver fists suddenly exploded with flames and light. Then they began to crackle with lightning and howl with wind. A moment later, the fists became so heavy that space itself twisted around them.

“Not good!” The Life God grimaced.

She was keenly aware of how powerful the Heaven Lord’s attacks where. Even with her Life God Eye, she was somewhat unable to deal with them. If the Sacred Land’s array was struck by these two fists, it wouldn’t be able to hold for long.

Buzz! Bzzz!

The Life God circulated her Life God Eye and unleashed a vast wave of Life energy. The Heaven Lord’s attack struck two balls of dazzling green light, but a moment later, the Life God’s energy exploded with a bang.

However, the Life God continued to control this Life energy, shaping it into a green mist that surrounded the array.

Brrrooom!

The Heaven Lord’s attack struck. The entire array fiercely shuddered. Those within the Sacred Land felt like the entire world was about to flip over.

Fortunately, the shuddering quickly faded. The Life God managed to somewhat weaken the Heaven Lord’s attack, allowing the Sacred Land array to endure. Of course, the power of the many members of the Life Sacred Land had also played a significant role.

“Lord, the Sacred Land’s array masters are in the middle of adjusting the array to convert all its offensive power into defense!” God King Radiant Peak messaged.

“Okay!” The Life God nodded.

Although the Life God Eye did not excel in combat, it was extremely suited for defense. This, combined with the Sacred Land’s array, would be enough to resist the assault of the Heaven Defying Faction. In this way, the two sides would enter a stalemate.

The Heaven Defying Faction continued to barrage the Sacred Land’s array with attacks, but the members within the Sacred Land focused entirely on defense.

This was the Life Sacred Land, where the Life God was at her strongest. A constant stream of Life Law energy flowed, propping up the Sacred Land.

Not long later…

“The array has been successfully modified!” God King Radiant Peak roared.

He then chose thirty of the best God Lords to take up positions in the modified array where they could link their energies with the array. In this situation, they could pour their Divine Power into the array to strengthen its defensive power.

Zhao Feng was one of these people.

The Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye, is that the Heaven Lord’s goal?” Zhao Feng softly muttered.

It was said that, when the power of the Eight Great God Eyes was brought together, one could summon the supreme Ancestral Eye.

But there was another legend. It was said that everything in the world was simply a dream, and when the Ancestral Eye opened, the dream would end.

He thought back to Yu Tianwu’s story about how the Heaven’s Legacy Race was not from this universe. Zhao Feng couldn’t help but wonder if the Heaven Lord wanted to use the power of the Heavenly Dao Ancestral Eye to leave this universe.

But the price for that was probably that the entire Fan Universe would be destroyed, extinguishing everything within it. Although this was only a legend that was impossible to verify, there was at least a possibility. And there was no telling what other dangers it could cause.

Buzz! Bzzz!

The Sacred Land array became much sturdier, its defenses rising to a new level.

The Heaven Defying Faction continued its assault. After all, a flaw would appear in the most flawless of defenses with enough time. Even a powerful array like this would eventually run short of energy.

Moreover, the Heaven’s Legacy Race was not just sitting back. Its Destruction weapons possessed inordinate power, and several of its members were studying ways to break the array.

“Hmph, this turtle shell will break eventually. The only thing awaiting all of you is death!” The Heaven Lord’s roars echoed around the Sacred Land.

Boom! Bang!

The Heaven Lord activated his Ancient Race bloodline and again punched. He circulated his Heavenly Dao God Eye so that his attacks reached unimaginable levels of power.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

The Sacred Land array was constantly swaying and shaking.

This stalemate went on for three days. Under the constant barrage of the Heaven Defying Faction’s assault, the Sacred Land array was slowly weakening.

“The array is damaged!” one of the array masters lamented.

“There might have been a mistake when we were modifying the array!”

Several of the array masters criticized themselves for this weakness.

Everyone in the Sacred Land could sense the array’s defenses slowly weakening, and the terrifying power of the Heaven Lord had been deeply branded into their minds. Many of them found it hard to remain calm, their faces becoming stricken with fear.

“The Heaven Lord’s goal is me. If the Sacred Land is breached, everyone, flee for your lives!” the Life God called out, at the same time radiating warm Life energy.

The low morale of the Sacred Land somewhat improved. The comforting Life energy caused everyone to slowly relax. “Your Excellency!” God King Radiant Peak was incredibly concerned.

“Relax. Everything will be fine.” The Life God remained calm and unperturbed.

She was not skilled in battle and could not fight directly with the Heaven Lord, but this did not mean that she would be killed.

Boom! Bang! Crash!

The entire Sacred Land quaked. The Heaven Defying Faction sensed the weakening of the array and redoubled their assault.

“Life Passing!” The Life God activated her eyes and engulfed the area outside the Sacred Land in the power of Life.

Many of the Heaven Defying Faction members began to turn older, their life draining away. Moreover, this lost vitality condensed into seeds that began to bud.

Kabooom!

In the blink of an eye, thick and thorny vines had sprouted out and began to flail around, snatching away the life of everything they touched.

The Life God’s sudden display of power caught the Heaven Defying Faction off guard.

“Death!” The Heaven Lord’s expression chilled. Activating his Heavenly Dao God Eye, he sent a gray mist down below. The boundless Death energy across the battlefield instantly came under his control.

Boom!

This Death energy descended upon those dreadful vines. Life and Death battled against each other and eventually canceled each other out.

“Life God, accept your fate! Once I obtain your God Eye Origin, I will seize the power of the God Eye Deities, one by one!”

As the Heaven Lord bellowed, a formidable will soared into the heavens and swept over the world.

Buzz! Bzzz!

The Heaven Lord activated his Ancient Race bloodline, forming a head of golden-silver light between his hands that radiated a heaven-shaking ancient energy.

“Shatter!” The Heaven Lord pushed his hands forward, sending the gold and silver head down below.

As the Heavenly Dao God Eye activated, the head erupted with flaming hair. The head’s eyes began to crackle with lightning, and then a layer of rock formed on its skin while its savage mouth began to breathe out the putrid energy of the Death Laws.

Everyone in the Sacred Land who saw this dreadful sight trembled in fear.

“What a powerful attack! He’s gaining a stronger understanding of the Heavenly Dao God Eye!” The Life God was also alarmed.

The Heaven Lord’s attack was a fusion of the Ancient Race bloodline with the Heavenly Dao God Eye’s power. It was so strong that not even the Life God dared to block it directly.

But suddenly, the Life God sensed a familiar energy, and it felt like a great weight was lifted off her heart.

Kabooom!

That God-Devil head descended with an invincible momentum and was on the verge of striking the Sacred Land array, but at this moment, the space in front of the array tore apart, transforming into a massive black hole.

Kaboom!

That God-Devil head of monstrous power was pulled into the black hole, upon which the hole was closed.

A moment later, an old man with a genial face appeared above the Sacred Land, the spatial blurs layered over his body endowing him with an unfathomable and enigmatic aura.

At the same time:

Brrrooom!

The distant sky suddenly exploded. That region of space was shattered, the earth blasted to smithereens, the heavens and earth thrown into chaos.

“Spacetime, you got here in time.” The Life God breathed a sigh of relief.

The Spacetime God had intervened just now, using the supreme power of the Spacetime God Eye to transfer the Heaven Lord’s attack to another part of space.

“This is the Heavenly Dao God Eye you spoke of?” The Spacetime God stared at the vertical eye of the Heaven Lord, his expression grim.
