Chapter 1512: Chapter 1465: The Return of the Gods - The Stone Statues are so Heavy! (Added Bonus Chapter)

(Extra Chapter, extra Chapter, extra Chapter, no particular reason.)

In the deepest realms of the Endless Vast expanse of space-time!

As if within an alternate dimension, the ancient Earth still manifested the geographical features of the ancient Desolate Wilds era, with countless mountain ridges towering beyond measure, the vastness of the qi stirring, yet the heavy and dense Heaven and Earth were devoid of any semblance of life.

In the center of the old Earth, enormous stone statues stood in a circle around the core, exuding majestic grandiosity!

The terrifying qi caused Heaven and Earth to shake, with the myriad stars in the sky showing tendencies of falling.

"A fallen god has actually managed to awaken once again, interesting."

Suddenly, one of the huge stone statues spoke, and immediately fine fragments crumbled and fell from its body.

"It’s still better than a divine being who has truly gathered divine essence returning!"

Then, another towering voice rang out, carrying a hint of sigh.

"This is already the third god to return, it’s a pity that only one of them belongs to our camp."

The terrifying qi pervaded the center of the area, yet among the densely packed stone statues, only a few radiated divine brilliance, with many more in Dead Silence.

"Isn’t that even better? A fallen god poses no threat to us. If all the returning ones were fallen, that would be ideal. Who knows if gods are truly as grandiose as the legends say!"

"When those little fellows from the Outer World ascend to the throne and take over our duty here, we can step onto the Ancient road with peace of mind, returning to the ancient times to see for ourselves how grand and vast the gods really are!"

In the middle of all the stone statues, there was a convergence of divine brilliance from auspicious rosy clouds, exuding an aura that could lead one astray; it seemed as if time had ceased to exist here, and a vast aura of ages descended from nowhere.

Whoosh! A Long River fell directly from an inexplicable space-time, flowing slowly, its destination unknown.

The constantly splashing droplets brought flashing visions; the further along the Endless Depths of the water the flashes appeared, the more vast and ancient the depicted Mountains and Rivers.

Even some creatures long vanished from existence reappeared in these flickering images.

The three stone statues that spoke were lifelike, radiating an incredibly terrifying qi, but their faces were covered by the clouds above the Void; when the clouds dispersed, their faces were revealed!

They were none other than the Sea Emperor, the son of the Water Dragon, the Golden Emperor of the Golden Dome, and the Fire Emperor of the Scorching Sun!

...

Meanwhile, deep beneath the Human Race Ancient Imperial Palace in the central lands of the Human Realm, two towering figures opened their eyes almost simultaneously.

"Gathering gods are descending upon the world, it appears that a great era of contention is truly upon us!" A voice rose from a young-looking man, who was none other than the East Emperor of the Human Race.

"What are gods anyway, but just another realm of Cultivation in Martial Arts."

Next to Ji Wujiang of the Eastern Wasteland was Ancient Rivers and Mountains, an Ancient Emperor of the Human Race.

"Do you think those returning gods will truly stand shoulder to shoulder with our Human Race in battle?"

The East Emperor spoke softly, causing the Ancient Emperor to momentarily freeze.

The gods of ancient times have lived through immeasurably long eons and experienced all the tribulations of the mortal world. Even as they, the Peak Realm Experts of the Human Race, still could not assure anything!

"At the very least, for now, their goal aligns with our Human Race, which is to preserve the Wilderness Earth. Otherwise, even if they returned, without the Wilderness Earth, and without the blessing of this Heaven and earth, their divine status would fall completely!"

All of a sudden, the Ancient Emperor spoke out, his eyes quickly focusing with divine brilliance.

"If that time truly comes, even if they are gods, this emperor will slaughter them!"

"That’s the Ancient Rivers and Mountains I know. Throughout this era, our contention was intense, but I’ve always understood that among the Human Emperors, only you are truly worthy. Your boldness far exceeds mine!" The East Emperor laughed heartily, displaying a sense of relief.

"That old Scorpion has certainly declined. However, of the two divine beings who have now returned, one belongs to the Hundred Clans and may well cause upheaval in the coming schemes. Moreover, the divine being from the side of the Wild Gods does not seem easy to get along with." Then the East Emperor spoke again.

"That divine tiger of the Demon Race, who merely reaches the bottom echelon of the True God Realm -- the Void God level, plus having just awakened and not fully recovered its strength, is now keeping its tail between its legs. If there is the slightest intent to act out, I shall go and slaughter it myself. As for those Wild Gods, as long as they behave before setting foot on the Ancient road, it’s fine. Should they harbor ulterior motives, then they can’t blame me!"

The voice of the Ancient Emperor was like thunder, as if he were an emissary of judgment, his terrifying qi flickered momentarily then vanished.

"Are you about to take the final step?" However, the East Emperor caught the fleeting qi.

"Not yet, but it’s more than enough to handle a divine tiger of the Void God level!"

As the most formidable amongst the Strong Ones of the Human Race, safeguarding the heart of the Human Realm, the strength of the Ancient Emperor was undoubtedly beyond question, having already stepped into the Imperial Dao Heavenly Realm, even reaching the peak of this realm, only a step away from the true Imperiale Eternal Realm!

As his words fell, the East Emperor remained silent, his eyes dimming slightly. But a moment later, his pupils shone with dazzling divine brilliance, displaying the cycles of the sun and moon, brilliant as the shining Stars.

"All Heavens are in chaos, who knows how many dormant gods will return anew. Generation-after-generation Human Emperors have guarded the Human Realm, and now the mantle has been passed to us. The legacy of the Human Race must not be extinguished!"

The East Emperor spoke word by word, then a Bronze chest appeared in his hands, an ancient box emanating decay, causing the surrounding space to rapidly deteriorate and begin Annihilation.

"What is that?"

Seeing this ancient Bronze chest, the Ancient Emperor was first taken aback, his brows knitted slightly before a flash of divine light crossed his eyes.

"The Fruit of Eternity!"

"Indeed, it is the Fruit of Eternity!" At this moment, the East Emperor’s eyes were equally solemn!

"Are you about to...?" As if realizing something, even at their near omnipotent level of existence, faced with such a Divine Object, their hearts still stirred!

"Refine the eternal fruit and ascend to the Imperial Dao Eternal Realm!"

The Ancient Emperor gave a bitter smile, facing the eternal fruit, to say he was not tempted would be a lie, even if he had reached a state of tranquil heart!

The eternal fruit is a divine medicine for emperors to ascend from the Imperial Dao Transformation Realm to the Eternal Realm. No one knows how the eternal fruit came into being, and such a divine fruit might not appear even once in an epoch, thus it is also known as the Epochal Fruit.

It is rumored to be formed from the blood and bones of those in the Imperial Dao Heavenly Realm after their demise, but no one has ever confirmed this speculation.

East Emperor waved his hand. This was a divine object that could help one ascend to the Imperial Dao Eternal Realm, coveted by all strong ones throughout all heavens. If emperors represent the pinnacle of Martial Arts sought after by all beings, then the Eternal Realm is the peak for emperors!

To possess a divine object that could reach the very pinnacle of Imperial Dao, to say he gave it away without a hint of hesitation, how could that be possible!

"You and I have started our struggle since we were both saints. Despite this, we both understand my desire to end the chaos of All Heavens, to free our human race from the servitude of any clan, and you desire the same!"

East Emperor pushed the bronze casket towards the Ancient Emperor.

"I know my Dao. Reaching the Imperial Dao Transformation Realm is already my limit. The chance to ascend to true eternity, even with the eternal fruit, is slim. Now that chaos reigns in All Heavens, and even gods will return and tread the ancient road again, our human race in this era must have a true Supreme strong one to preside over!"

East Emperor, with a resolute expression, moved his hand away from the bronze casket and looked towards the Ancient Emperor and his Mountains and Rivers.

"You haven’t forgotten the oath we took together in the Nine Nether Underworld in the face of a life and death crisis all those years ago, have you?"

"Never forgotten!"

The voice of the Ancient Emperor was firm, with a hint of reminiscence, as if returning to the years of an epoch past.

"The eternal fruit is yours. The oath we took back then, I, Ji Wujiang, have not forgotten, and I’ve never dared to forget!"

"Wujiang, you...!"

East Emperor shook his head, his voice unyieldingly steady, said: "Remember your words. If in the end, even gods cannot be relied upon, then we can only rely on ourselves!"

At their level of realm, they are no longer constrained by material possessions. The next moment, the Ancient Emperor grabbed the bronze casket in front of him and disappeared from the East Emperor’s presence.

A faint voice arose.

"If the Wild Gods return and indeed bring peril to the inheritors of our human race, then I, the Emperor, shall slay gods!"

"Good, when the time comes, we shall join hands to slay gods!"

In the empty space, the East Emperor’s laughter thundered, filled with satisfaction, as if to fully vent the repression in his heart!

Ask the warriors of the Desolate Wilds, which one of them does not wish to climb to the peak and look down upon All Heavens?

East Emperor understands, the Ancient Emperor understands as well; however, the human race needs a supreme strong one!

...

Scorpion Clan.

The warriors gathered around the Scorpion God Palace naturally had no idea that in just a brief time, too many ancient creatures had already emerged.

Like a waterfall, vast divine power falls from the pinnacle of the Sky Vault, mighty and large, surpassing the Mountain Range, and Starry Sea fills the sky. Despite such spectacular phenomena, the result seems anticlimactic!

"It can’t be, it can’t be, how could this happen!"

The Blood-eyed Emperor’s eyes filled with madness. Why did it turn out like this!

The Scorpion God is the spiritual pillar of the entire Scorpion Clan since ancient times, seeking over the long years for the Scorpion God to return and lead the Scorpion Clan to again stand tall among the Hundred Clans and Realms!

Why did it turn out this way!

Why has the great Scorpion God not shown the might that pierces heaven and earth, could it only be an empty husk!

The myriad of divine phenomena in the sky had already flickered for a long time, yet the momentum bursting forth from beneath the ground already soared to the peak realm, but still did not break through the boundary between heaven and earth!

It is clear that the Scorpion God of the rumors, the Scorpion Clan’s only strong one comparable to an emperor, has awakened, but it seems that his strength has diminished!

Clang Clang Clang!

Out of the blue, amidst the godly light enveloping the Scorpion God Palace, and under the impact of the rosy clouds in the sky, the sound of metal rang out, as if cut by swords and axes.

"Who is it!"

Seeing a figure moving within the downpour of divine light, the Blood-eyed Emperor felt a surge of joy at first, but then immediately as if facing a formidable enemy!

Boom!

The Scorpion God Palace surrounded by onlookers exploded suddenly, the rosy light falling like mountains dispersing in splendor, the dazzling starlight further annihilated, but when the resplendent divine light faded, a clear radiance outshined everyone’s pupils!

A large statue of the Scorpion God emerged from underneath the ground, as massive as a small mountain!

"The Scorpion God!" the Scorpion Clan Warriors exclaimed in shock.

Finally, the immobile statue of the Scorpion God revealed its true form, yet beneath the statue a tide of green light swept directly across, dispelling the sky’s rosy clouds, revealing undying divine brilliance!

Beneath the mountain-sized statue, a lovely figure wrapped in green light, with her delicate hands supporting the statue of the Scorpion God, it was apparent that she was the reason for the statue’s suspension in midair.

"Master, this hideous stone statue is so heavy!" Soon, a petulant voice followed!
