Tales Of Herding Gods | Chapter 1445 - The Foot Of Heaven Duke
Heaven Duke and the Heavenly Dao weren't omnipotent. There were also places in this world where the light of Xuandu couldn't shine, and there were also places that Heavenly Dao couldn't reach.
Where Heaven Duke couldn't shine was under his feet.
In Xuandu, he was like a four-faced god that was similar to Qin Mu's divine treasure realm. No matter where they attacked him, they would only attack his front.
Attacking him was attacking the Heavenly Dao, and he would receive the fiercest retaliation from Heaven Duke!
Xuandu was the birthplace of Heaven Duke, and his abilities would be raised to the extreme there. His abilities would definitely not be inferior to the peak of the Grand Primordium Celestial Emperor!
Even a Celestial Venerable would be injured or even killed by such an attack.
Yet Heaven Duke couldn't shine on the bottom of his feet. Xuandu was the brightest place, and Heaven Duke was also the brightest ancient god in the world. However, the darkest place in the world was also born because of this.
This place was the Heavenly Yin World under his feet.
The Heavenly Dao was also unable to reach this place, and as a result, this place became the gathering place for the black soul sand. The Heavenly Dao didn't exist here, and the black soul sand gathered to become starved ghosts that could swallow everything, never to be fed.
The Great Dao of Youdu was also unable to reach this place. Earth Count controlled the wandering souls in the world, but he was helpless against Black Sand Earth Count.
Goddess of Heavenly Yin was the god born here.
Goddess of Heavenly Yin looked at the thousands of lifeforms that she had enlightened with her Dao in Heavenly Yin World and then looked at Ancestral God King. Her abilities were not enough to fight against Ancestral God King.
For the sake of Heaven Duke, fighting with Ancestral God King would only result in being killed by Ancestral God King. Even the lifeforms of Heavenly Yin World would be wiped out!
Even though she had walked her own path and was no longer an ignorant ancient god, just as Qin Mu had said, her paths, skills, and divine arts were to create life, not to kill, not to fight.
After a moment, Goddess of Heavenly Yin shrunk back and protected the lifeforms of Heavenly Yin World. "When Celestial Venerable makes a move, don't harm the innocent."
Ancestral God King gave a slight smile and took out the Heavenly Dao treasure that he had refined using the divine metal and divine materials of the ancestral court. He combined it into a Heavenly Dao treasure and said, "Goddess, don't worry. The heavens are benevolent, and I'm not a cruel and murderous person. I won't let all the lives in your Heavenly Yin World die. However, when my divine art erupts, it's hard to guarantee that it will affect Heavenly Yin World. Goddess, just do your best to protect them. If all the lives in Heavenly Yin World really die, Goddess can just create another world to evolve all the lives."
Goddess of Heavenly Yin raised her eyebrows, but she held back her anger and didn't turn hostile.
Ancestral God King raised his head to look at the soles of Heaven Duke's feet and said with a smile, "Know your father better than your son. Heaven Duke is my father, my greatest father. However, he is too righteous and imposing. He believes that good and evil are the principles of the world, so there's no need to interfere. He won't think for the sake of the half-gods, nor will he think for his children. The life and death of his children and the glory of his children have nothing to do with him. However, he's too hypocritical."
He sneered and said indifferently, "The Heavenly Dao is truly selfless, but since it gave birth to him, he can't be selfless with his own consciousness. If Heaven Duke is truly selfless, why did he give birth to me?"
The mocking expression on his face became even more intense. It was as if he was talking to Goddess of Heavenly Yin, but it also seemed like he was talking to himself. He said leisurely, "He also lusted after beauty and power. He also has his own desires. During normal times, the Heavenly Dao suppressed his desires and allowed him to maintain his upright image, but there are always loopholes in the Heavenly Dao."
He sneered and said, "In the battle to eradicate the masters of creation, he found this loophole, so his split soul reincarnated. That's why I was born. In that battle, Celestial Emperor Tai Chu caught hold of his weakness and forced him to submit. Hehe, I saw it all. I know my father's desire better than anyone else, because I'm the son born from his desire."
He said something that made Goddess of Heavenly Yin deeply fearful as well. "When he became one of the ten Celestial Venerables and thought that he could fool everyone in the world, I was the only one who recognized him. How could I not recognize him? I'm the child born from his desire. I saw him become Celestial Venerable Hong, and he was still so detached and calm. However, when he controlled Celestial Emperor's corporeal body, I could feel his ambition and desire expanding."
He stared at the soles of Heaven Duke's feet and looked at everything in Xuandu. Over there, Celestial Venerable Hong was rushing to Xuandu to kill Heaven Duke.
"I've been waiting for an opportunity, Father."
Ancestral God King laughed loudly, but there was no joy in his laughter, only coldness. "The chance I'm waiting for is for you to reveal your true weakness. Only you can reveal this flaw!"
"I have always been the most reckless one among the ten Celestial Venerables, even more reckless than Celestial Venerable Huo, boorish, and less scheming. You know I'm faking it, but you think I'm faking it for the other Celestial Venerables. What you don't know is that I'm a straightforward person, so why do I have to pretend?"
"I'm pretending for you to see!"
"I've waited for you to reveal your weakness. I've waited for this chance for too long, and I've also pretended for too long! Now, I've finally waited for this chance!"
…
Xuandu.
The army of the celestial heavens advanced steadily. Although Celestial Venerable Hong, God Emperor Lang Xuan, Heavenly Lady Qiang, Shi Qiluo, Celestial Venerable Huo, and the rest were harassed by Celestial Venerable Yue, Celestial Venerable You, and Divine King Lang, the three of them didn't dare to face them head-on. They usually left immediately without stopping, so they didn't cause too much trouble for them.
Heavenly Lady Qiang gave the Celestial Venerables a headache.
The power of the two Blood Fiend God Execution Knives on God Execution Stage became stronger. They swallowed the Heaven Emanations and swept away all the baleful aura in Xuandu, making all the Celestial Venerables secretly alarmed.
Heavenly Lady Qiang's identity as the Grand Emperor was an open secret among the ten Celestial Venerables. It was all thanks to Qin Mu. Even though Qin Mu didn't publicly announce that Heavenly Lady Qiang was the Grand Emperor, Heavenly Lady Qiang and the Grand Emperor were severely injured because of him.
Although the ten Celestial Venerables were allies, they also monitored each other and planted their own spies around each other. They even sent their disciples to infiltrate each other's subordinates and become their disciples. They were truly unscrupulous.
Heavenly Lady Qiang's injuries weren't hidden from them. They knew what she ate, what she said, and who she met.
Now that most of the identities of the ten Celestial Venerables were transparent, with Shi Qiluo, the shit-storm who loved to stir up trouble, and Qin Mu, the shit-storm, it would be strange if the identity that Heavenly Lady Qiang had hidden for hundreds of thousands of years wasn't revealed.
'If he refines these two divine knives…'
Celestial Venerable Huo glanced at Heavenly Lady Qiang, whose eyes twitched.
The God Execution Stage he saw had a total of twenty-four steps.
God Emperor Lang Xuan's gaze also landed on Heavenly Lady Qiang. There were twenty-eight steps on the God Execution Stage that he saw, and he thought, 'If Heavenly Lady Qiang died in the battle against Heaven Duke, she would die a heroic death. Ancestral God King is talented in literature, and the denunciation of Heaven Duke came from him. He could write an essay to mourn Heavenly Lady Qiang… Strange, Ancestral God King has always been the first to kill his father, so why is he missing?'
