Chapter 359 Rules and the Wrath of the Purple Moon Ancestor
Unable to contain their curiosity, the crowd eagerly sought out the Purple Moon Ancestor, who had recently submitted to them, to inquire about the details.
But the next second, they realized that their imagination was ultimately too limited.
The truth revealed by the Purple Moon Ancestor was a billion times more terrifying than they could have imagined.
"The Qingyang Ancestor traversed countless time and space with just a wisp of his will, annihilating 23 million True God-level World Beasts in the blink of an eye! The remaining World Beasts were so frightened that they fled in panic, which is how my Purple Moon Holy Land was able to be preserved."
The Purple Moon Ancestor spoke, his voice calm and even, yet carrying a profound and awe-inspiring power.
He swept his gaze over the cosmic lords and true gods, his brows still showing the lingering fear of surviving a catastrophe, yet he couldn't hide his disdain for these "frogs in a well" before him.
On the Origin Continent, even the weakest Void God can become the leader of a tribe that commands tens of thousands of the strongest beings in the universe, if they so choose.
In his eyes, these powerful natives trapped in the cosmic sea were ultimately too narrow-minded.
But this dismissive attitude instantly transformed into extreme apprehension when the name "Qingyang" was mentioned.
"The power of the Qingyang Ancestor—has probably reached the realm of an Eternal True God, and at the very top of the pyramid!"
Upon thinking of this, the Purple Moon Ancestor's Adam's apple bobbed, and he dared not think any further.
As for the existence of "being called a saint"?
That terrifying level of looking up to the God-King and surpassing the Eternal True God is extremely rare, even in the God Kingdom of the Origin Continent.
In such a "barren" place as the primordial universe, the birth of a true god of the void is already a fantasy, let alone being called a saint.
Let alone becoming an eternal true god in the primordial universe, even becoming an eternal true god in the complete universe opened up by the God-King would be an unimaginable existence for the Purple Moon Ancestor.
Deification —
It seems that no one in the history of the Origin Continent has ever cultivated to the level of a saint in the entire universe.
Therefore, the Purple Moon Ancestor never even considered such a thing.
Upon hearing these words from the Purple Moon Ancestor, the crowd, who had been whispering amongst themselves, instantly fell into a deathly silence.
Time and space seemed to be frozen, and even the flow of chaotic air became slow.
"Eliminate—annihilate? Twenty-three million?" Luo Feng couldn't believe it: "Those are terrifying beings at the true god level!"
"Not immortal, not a cosmic sovereign! Let alone the strongest in the universe, even twenty million cosmic lords could probably annihilate any of the strongest in the universe. Yet twenty million of the strongest in the universe were—annihilated with a single thought?"
Transmitting thoughts across time and space is something that every strongest being in the universe can do.
But the power of that wisp of will is at most enough to kill an immortal, and it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven to kill a lord of the universe, let alone a true god-level existence!
This is also why the Purple Moon Ancestor determined that Xu Qing was the ultimate Eternal True God.
Such beings can traverse the boundless sea of stars and slay true gods across endless time and space with a single thought.
If the real person were here in person, a single glance would be enough to annihilate the soul and spirit of a Void True God like him!
He had never witnessed just how powerful the will of the Eternal True God truly was.
But the Purple Moon Ancestor also wondered, does the existence within the limit of the Eternal True God really possess such power?
"Perhaps—Lord Xu Qing is a being whose will is saintly among the eternal true gods—perhaps he possesses some kind of secret technique of will?"
But this was enough to shock him.
Even the Purple Moon Ancestor, who was used to seeing the true gods of the Origin Continent, was shocked by this, let alone these native powerhouses who had been trapped in the Cosmic Sea their whole lives.
Luo Feng, the founder of the giant axe, the Lord of Chaos City, the father god of the mechanical race, the mother queen of the insect race—everyone froze on the spot, their souls trembling uncontrollably, their faces filled with extreme horror and bewilderment.
Even at the peak of a cycle of reincarnation, there are only thirty strongest beings in the universe.
Xu Qing merely sent down his will, and he destroyed hundreds of thousands of times more True God-level World Beasts.
This power was beyond their comprehension; it was as if they were listening to a nonsensical dream.
"The Purple Moon Ancestor would never lie about such a thing," the Chaos City Lord muttered to himself, his voice unusually solemn. "He just experienced a cataclysmic disaster, and every word he uttered is absolutely true—meaning, all of this is real?"
The founder of the giant axe opened his mouth, his rugged face blank with disbelief, and after a long while, he managed to stammer out: "To kill millions of true gods with just a wisp of will—this—this is power that a human can possess?"
The mechanical race father god, the insect queen and others who were secretly delighted to be able to sit on equal footing with the lord of the holy land felt their faces burning with embarrassment.
Before Xu Qing's terrifying power, what are the so-called lords of holy lands, true gods, and lords of the universe? They are probably just ants that he can wipe out in a single thought.
What is transcendence of reincarnation, what is the overlord of the universe? In the face of absolute power, all of these are utterly insignificant.
Inside the grand hall of the primordial universe, whether it was the human race's cosmic lord, true god, or the powerful members of the subordinate races who had recently submitted, all were shaken to their core by this earth-shattering victory.
They all looked up simultaneously, gazing at the white-clad figure standing quietly on the throne in the palace. Sunlight streamed through the gaps in the palace walls, illuminating his aloof and indifferent profile. Though so close, he seemed as if separated by billions of miles of starry sky, unattainable.
Only now did they truly understand what a magnificent and terrifying being they had submitted to.
"Splash! Splash! Splash!"
One after another, figures knelt down on the ground in unison, their movements perfectly synchronized, their voices resounding throughout the universe.
"The progenitor's abilities are unparalleled before or since! They will surely be passed down through countless reincarnations, illuminating all the heavens!"
"The primordial ancestor Qingyang possessed unparalleled divine might, annihilating millions of world beasts with a single thought and saving the Cosmic Sea from imminent peril! This is a blessing for our human race, a blessing for the primordial universe, and a divine favor for the entire Cosmic Sea!"
"We respectfully welcome our progenitor, and are willing to follow him for eternity, serving him with utmost loyalty!"
A wave of fervent awe swept through the entire hall, and every voice carried heartfelt respect and trepidation.
Among the crowd, the most shocked were Huyanbo, Babata, and the ruler of the Qianwu Kingdom.
Huyanbo and Babata could hardly believe their ears; everything before them seemed like a dream.
They knelt in the crowd, their hearts filled with sighs and shock. Only now did he truly understand the weight of the words "true God".
That is the pinnacle of the cosmic sea, an existence akin to the creator of the giant axe.
The Qingyang Ancestor, with just a wisp of thought, was able to annihilate tens of millions of "Giant Axe Founders"!
"I am now the overlord of the universe, yet even a wisp of my consciousness possesses the combat power of a world lord—just what level has the power of the Qingyang Ancestor reached?" Hu Yanbo's mind was in turmoil, and he dared not think too deeply about it.
What he found even more unbelievable was that he was originally a Marquis God who was killed by an ordinary King-level Immortal, but the little legacy he left behind led the Qingyang Ancestor, who now overlooks the cosmic sea, to call him "Teacher".
Based on this relationship alone, those who were once just legends in his eyes, such as the Lord of Chaos City and the founder of the Giant Axe, now have to bow and pay their respects to him.
The Lord of Desolate Mirror, who had offended the Qingyang Ancestor, would kneel and kowtow every time he saw him, respectfully addressing him as Ancestor Huyanbo, and daring not to show the slightest disrespect.
This is thanks to the fact that the human race in the universe is a second-class race.
If it weren't for this, even legendary figures like the progenitors of demonic beasts and starry sky beasts, who were on par with the creator of the giant axe, would consider themselves "livestock" in his presence and willingly serve as his mounts.
This boundless wealth and unparalleled status were merely the legacy he left behind on Earth before his death.
This situation is even more bizarre than the most absurd dream.
Not only Huyanbo and Babata, but everyone on Earth was overjoyed, their blood boiling! They fervently praised the mighty name of the Qingyang Ancestor.
Previously, as long as the name of the Earth lineage was mentioned, even an immortal powerhouse of the second-class race, the Cosmic Human Race, would have to bow and pay respects to an Earth race member of the World Lord level.
The billions of Earthlings in China during Xu Qing's era held an unimaginably high status. Even the Universe Lords among the Cosmic Human Races dared not show the slightest disrespect, and the Universe Lords of third-class races had to bow to a Realm Lord.
Even the strongest beings in the universe, if they come from a fourth-class race, must kneel and pay their respects to these Earthlings who are at the very top of the racial hierarchy pyramid, or they will be severely punished by Luo Feng.
This is the pyramid of status that Xu Qing established, and no one dares to disobey it.
Now, even the most powerful holy land lords in the cosmic sea, beings transcending reincarnation, have submitted to the Qingyang Ancestor, and are merely third-tier subordinate races.
"Doesn't that mean that our Earth lineage has become the undisputed number one race in the cosmic sea?!"
"My God! According to the rules established by the Qingyang Ancestor, doesn't that mean that even those holy land lords who have transcended reincarnation and once overlooked the universe would have to kowtow and kneel before us Earthlings, daring not to show the slightest disrespect?!"
Ecstatic shouts echoed in everyone's hearts, and an unbelievable excitement and pride filled everyone's faces, with tears involuntarily welling up in their eyes.
Although they were hardly qualified to enter the Cosmic Sea and rarely saw the Purple Moon Ancestor, the thought of it still brought tears to their eyes and filled them with immense excitement.
All of this was bestowed upon them by the supreme glory of the white-robed progenitor who stood atop the cosmic sea.
Then, the message from the Lord of Chaos City spread like sweet rain, reaching every corner of the cosmic sea.
"The calamity of the Beast Realm has been repelled by the Qingyang Ancestor."
The moment the news spread, countless powerful figures in the cosmic sea who had been filled with fear and anxiety breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is it over?"
"My God! Tens of millions of the strongest beings in the universe were actually repelled?! Just what level did the Azure Sun Ancestor reach?!"
The relief of surviving the ordeal overwhelmed everyone like a tidal wave; the previous fear and despair seemed to vanish with the retreat of the Beast.
In each of the smaller universes, whether it was the overlords like the Divine Eye Clan and the Skeleton Clan, or the strongest and lords of ordinary universes, they were all speculating about the true strength of the mysterious and unpredictable Qingyang Ancestor.
But this relief didn't last long, as the Chaos City Lord's second message arrived, clearly outlining the rules that the third-class subordinate races must abide by—
"All races that are subordinate to the third class of the human race, whether they are immortals, true gods, or lords of the universe, no matter how great the difference in their levels, even a true god's status cannot be higher than any first-class member."
"Those who are of the first or third class below the Supreme Being of the Universe must pay homage."
"When meeting members of the Universe Venerable level, whether they are immortals or true gods of the universe, or any member of the Earth lineage, regardless of their cultivation level, they must kneel and pay their respects without the slightest disrespect."
"The cosmic lords of the first-class race, the true gods, have the right to make any mobilizations or commands to the third-class races. Those who disobey will be executed without mercy."
The message exploded like a thunderclap in the cosmic sea.
The relief that had just faded from the faces of the true gods and lords of the universe was instantly replaced by overwhelming rage.
"This isn't subservience, this is treating us like slaves!"
"Whether it's the Divine Eye Clan, the Skeleton Clan, or anyone else... even though Ancestor Qingyang has shown great kindness, he cannot be so domineering and rude!"
Countless true gods and lords of the universe angrily denounced him, their previous gratitude towards Xu Qing vanished instantly, leaving only anger and resentment at being humiliated.
They can accept submission to save their lives, but they absolutely cannot accept such a rule.
In the cosmic sea, cultivation level has always determined rank and status. True gods are above the masters of the universe, and ancient races look down on rising stars. This is an unchanging iron law.
But the current rules have completely overturned their understanding of order!
The strongest beings in the original universe would never have agreed to such a request if Luo Feng hadn't almost killed them and nearly wiped out their entire race.
Among them, the one who reacted most violently was the Purple Moon Ancestor.
Inside the main hall of the Purple Moon Holy Land, the Purple Moon Ancestor looked at the rules on the communication token, his pupils suddenly contracted, and the divine power around him instantly became extremely violent. Under the terrifying pressure, the beams and pillars of the entire hall broke inch by inch, and the ground cracked open with spider web-like fissures.
"To meet a supreme being of the universe, someone as insignificant as an ant, I would have to kneel and kowtow?!"
He roared out suddenly, his voice hoarse and furious, his eyes surging with unbelievable anger and humiliation.
"This is outrageous! This is absolutely outrageous!"
Who is he? He is a being who transcends reincarnation! He is a prominent Void God on the Origin Continent!
Even on the Origin Continent, those Void Gods would treat him with utmost respect; in his presence, they were nothing more than ants.
The Supreme Being of the Universe?
There's nothing that weak on the Origin Continent!
This is almost equivalent to asking a head of state to kowtow to a maggot.
The Lord of the Universe, the True God, has the right to make any moves against the third-class race, which infuriated even the Purple Moon Ancestor beyond words.
This is absolutely insulting!
Whether it's the Cosmic Sea or the Origin Continent, there has never been such an outrageous rule throughout history!
Cultivation, background, inheritance, seniority—all of these seem to become a joke in the face of these rules!
As the progenitor of the Purple Moon, he ruled the Holy Land and transcended the cycle of reincarnation. This humiliation was even more unbearable for him than facing tens of millions of world beasts!
"The actions of the Qingyang Ancestor are far too domineering! Far too bullying!"
The Purple Moon Ancestor's chest heaved violently, his divine body trembling slightly, his extreme anger almost causing him to lose his mind.
"I, Ziyue, have cultivated through countless reincarnations; how could I endure such humiliation?!"
Outside the hall, the cosmic lords of the Purple Moon Holy Land also learned of the rules, and they were all furious, pleading with the Purple Moon Ancestor to refuse such a humiliating request.
But as soon as they finished speaking, they saw the Purple Moon Ancestor slap them.
boom! !
Several more cosmic masters were blown into a bloody mist.
This surprised everyone.
What exactly did the original Tmd want to do?
After slapping several of his own descendants to death, the Purple Moon Ancestor took a deep breath and finally forced down his rage.
He then agreed to all the rules on the messaging token.
What else can I do?
Refuse? Are you kidding me?
He wasn't stupid; he had already witnessed the immense power of the Qingyang Ancestor. How could he possibly resist?
