Chapter 198: Worship the Ancestral God
“Do you two truly wish to join our Star Alliance?”
Ling Yi’s hands trembled. He and the surrounding Star Alliance members couldn't believe that Lin Ning and Ji Jiuli would join their Star Alliance!
“Friends, you should know the status of our Star Alliance.”
Ling Yi swallowed. In his view, Lin Ning and Ji Jiuli had extraordinary temperaments, like those True Gods in the Heavenly Court, transcendent and refined!
Even if these two were not True Gods now, they would definitely become True Gods in the future.
During the Ancient Heavenly Court period, there were many forces, either called tribes or organizations/forces like the Star Alliance.
This book is first published on the entire network
Besides the Ancestral God, that colossal being, there was also the Heavenly Court under his command.
The strongest was the Heavenly Sacred Alliance, led by the True God Ashura and the War God Ares.
The Heavenly Sacred Alliance did not originally belong to the Heavenly Court, but everyone knew that they were actually a force that had submitted to the Heavenly Court, revering the Ancestral God.
Ares even helped the Heavenly Court conquer the starry sky, subduing many planets, and was finally bestowed the title of War God by the Ancestral God!
And the Star Alliance...
It was the weakest force.
Within the Heavenly Court's domain, there were a total of one hundred and eight True Gods, plus the Ancestral God, that colossal being.
Those forces and tribes, more or less, had True Gods holding down the fort, while the Star Alliance... its strongest realm only reached the Emperor Lord Perfected Realm.
“Friends, we are naturally happy that you two can join our Star Alliance.”
Ling Yi smiled, “But, you are too outstanding. Even just standing here makes us feel the gap.”
“You two belong to a larger platform. Our Star Alliance is too small.”
Around them, the Star Alliance members nodded in agreement.
Of course, they hoped Lin Ning and Ji Jiuli would stay, as it would greatly increase the strength of their Star Alliance.
However, their inner pride told them that they absolutely could not use such means to strengthen the Star Alliance and could not restrict the growth of others.
“We have already decided to join the Star Alliance.” Lin Ning said in a deep voice.
“Good!”
Ling Yi smiled, “In that case, welcome to the Star Alliance!”
The surrounding cultivators applauded and cheered.
The living conditions in the current Star Alliance were not good; they were all thatched huts.
When Lin Ning joined the Star Alliance, Ling Yi actually vacated the best house specifically for Lin Ning and Ji Jiuli to use as their residence.
“Don't refuse, you two.”
Ling Yi said, “Cultivators can sleep anywhere. You don't need to worry about me. I can take the sky as my blanket and the earth as my mat.”
“Since you have chosen to join the Star Alliance, we will absolutely not treat you poorly.”
After settling the two down, Ling Yi left.
Walking through the Star Alliance, a shadow suddenly appeared behind Ling Yi's shadow. This shadow suddenly climbed up and transformed into a man.
The man looked around, then whispered, “Ling Yi, I think those two are a bit strange.”
“Why do you say that?” Ling Yi asked, puzzled.
The man expressed his opinion, “Their temperaments are extraordinary. The aura emanating from the woman has reached the Emperor Lord Perfected Realm, and it's terrifying at that level.”
“As for the man, Lin Muli, I don't know how high his cultivation is; I can't see through him.”
“Even if these two joined the Heavenly Sacred Alliance, they could stand out among those experts. Why would they join our Star Alliance?”
Hearing this, Ling Yi said seriously, “Shadow, your thinking is wrong.”
“Although our Star Alliance ranks last, it doesn't mean that we people are bad!”
“Every one of our members will shine like the stars in the future!”
Shadow hesitated for a moment, intending to say something, but upon seeing Ling Yi's serious expression, he immediately shut his mouth.
“I can see that they two will inevitably become gods in the future.” Ling Yi said, “Since they joined the Star Alliance, that means they trust us.”
“Since they trust us, why should we suspect them?”
“We are friends. There shouldn't be suspicion between friends, otherwise, the Star Alliance is likely to collapse!”
Shadow lowered his head, “I was too sensitive. I shouldn't speculate about others casually.”
Ling Yi waved his hand, “Forget it, you're also doing it for the good of our Star Alliance, but please don't casually assume the worst of others in the future.”
“The Heavenly Court Feast is about to begin. The Ancestral God has invited our Star Alliance to attend the feast. This may be our opportunity to become gods.”
Hearing this, Shadow said in surprise, “The Ancestral God actually invited us?”
In his opinion, if the Ancestral God, that high and mighty figure, were to invite other forces to a banquet, he would invite powerful forces.
Could the Star Alliance actually be invited by him?
“The Ancestral God is benevolent. He invited all forces to jointly discuss the method of becoming gods.” Ling Yi said.
“Let's prepare well. You need to discard all your thoughts and keep your mind empty and clear.”
“When we enter the Heavenly Court, study hard, and becoming a god won't be far off!”
On the other side.
“Husband, why did you change our names?”
Ji Jiuli asked curiously, “Is there some terrifying existence here?”
She had never seen Lin Ning look so cautious. In the past, her husband always acted very decisively, not looking back and forth.
If there was something, he would just push through directly.
Lin Ning leaned into Ji Jiuli's ear and whispered, “Ling Yi will be the Spirit Emperor of the Spirit Race in the future. He created a heaven-defying cultivation technique. Knowing our names and true appearance can kill us.”
“Currently, we are facing him with our true appearance, so we absolutely cannot let him know our real names.”
The warm breath he exhaled while speaking made Ji Jiuli's ears tickle, and half her body went numb.
Quickly rubbing her arm, Ji Jiuli asked in confusion, “Ling Yi seems quite kind. Will he be so terrifying in the future?”
Lin Ning nodded. As someone who had seen history, Ling Yi's evil deeds were inevitable unless they could completely change Ling Yi's mindset and alter his path.
“Although we have already changed the course of history by entering the Ancient Heavenly Court.” Lin Ning said, “However, to be safe, we absolutely cannot reveal too much information.”
“I'm not worried that he will use that move to kill me, but I would be worried about you.”
Lin Ning gently stroked Ji Jiuli's nose and pulled her into his embrace.
The next day.
“Senior Brother, morning.”
Lin Ning walked through the main camp, watching the cultivators practice their techniques. When the cultivators saw him, they quickly greeted him.
During the Ancient Heavenly Court period, cultivators mostly addressed each other as Senior Brother or Senior Sister to show respect.
In their opinion, someone with Lin Ning's temperament must have a very high cultivation and a deeper understanding of cultivation methods, so they addressed him as Senior Brother.
“Junior Brother, morning.”
Lin Ning naturally returned the greeting, but upon seeing the appearance of the young cultivator, Lin Ning, who was about to continue observing, suddenly stopped.
The young cultivator touched his face and asked in confusion, “Senior Brother, is there something on my face?”
“No, I was mistaken.” Lin Ning smiled.
“Senior Brother, I feel there's a problem with this cultivation technique. Can you teach me?” The young cultivator asked respectfully.
Seeing Lin Ning nod, he was overjoyed and quickly drew his precious sword, performing seriously.
After finishing the performance, the young cultivator said, “I've been practicing this sword technique for over a month. My strength has increased significantly, but I always feel there's a force resisting me.
It prevents me from fully exerting my power and using its true strength.”
Looking at the other person's sword technique, Lin Ning was filled with curiosity.
“Your move is very good, but your body is too tense. You always want to use maximum force to overwhelm your opponent.”
Lin Ning saw the other person's weakness, “And because of this, your footwork will have problems. It looks fast, but your movements are stiff and lack any flexibility.”
“We must not only learn to control power but also learn to overcome hardness with softness.”
Lin Ning extended his hand, and what appeared was not the Heavenly Tribulation Sword, but a small wooden sword.
He casually swung a sword, and a sword light descended, landing on a giant stone, first splitting it in half.
Immediately after, a terrifying explosion erupted on the giant stone, completely shattering it into dust.
“Boom!”
This earth-shattering sound immediately attracted the surrounding cultivators.
They looked at Lin Ning in astonishment, couldn't help but gasp.
“That giant stone was split and exploded by his single sword strike? And it was a small wooden sword?”
“Senior Brother Lin actually possesses such terrifying sword techniques! What a terrifying genius!”
“To think that our Star Alliance has gained such a terrifying genius. Even a True God might be able to fight him, right?”
The Star Alliance cultivators sighed with emotion. The stone Lin Ning had just split was not an ordinary giant stone.
If it were an ordinary giant stone, who among them couldn't easily destroy it?
That giant stone just now was a Five-Colored Divine Stone. When the Star Alliance was established, Ling Yi had specially brought it from the Spirit Race.
This divine stone was incredibly sturdy; even a strong expert at the Emperor Lord Perfected Realm couldn't destroy it.
Such a treasure, in any era, could be considered an extremely precious treasure, passed down through generations.
However, Lin Ning destroyed it with just a small wooden sword!
In the distance, Ling Yi witnessed this scene with his own eyes, his body trembling involuntarily.
Beside him, the cultivator Shadow said in astonishment, “He actually destroyed the Five-Colored Divine Stone?”
Looking at Ling Yi, Shadow sighed and said, “Ling Yi, I can feel your heartache.”
When he was in the Spirit Race, Ling Yi treated this divine stone as a treasure.
After creating the Star Alliance, Ling Yi moved it here for everyone to admire, hoping to gain some insights from the divine stone.
Today, it was destroyed, and completely shattered at that!
“No.” Ling Yi extended his hand, a bright smile blooming on his face, “I'm not sad, I'm happy!”
“A peerless sword master has joined our Star Alliance and displayed his ability. I couldn't be happier.”
“The Five-Colored Divine Stone, if placed there and no one can gain insights from it, is no different from a废 stone!”
“But! Senior Brother Lin destroyed the divine stone with a wooden sword. His sword techniques are even stronger than some True Gods in the Heavenly Court! If he can teach us sword techniques, our Star Alliance will become even stronger!”
“This is the true purpose of the Five-Colored Divine Stone!”
Not far away, looking at the dumbfounded young cultivator, Lin Ning's face was expressionless.
He took out a foxtail grass and tossed it into the air.
Immediately after, Lin Ning struck out with a sword, a more terrifying sword energy soared into the sky, accurately landing on the foxtail grass.
However, unexpectedly.
This more powerful sword energy did not destroy the foxtail grass, not even cut it. Instead, it dissipated the moment it touched the grass.
It made one feel as if this grass was stronger than the sword energy, even harder than the Five-Colored Divine Stone just now!
However, foxtail grass was ultimately foxtail grass. It couldn't compare to the Five-Colored Divine Stone, much less be treasured like a valuable item.
“My first sword destroyed that stone.”
Lin Ning said slowly, “But my second sword couldn't even cut a single blade of grass. Is the second sword weaker? No, the power of my second sword is stronger.”
“Is the foxtail grass more solid than that stone?”
Lin Ning picked up the foxtail grass, handed it to the young cultivator, and then slowly walked away.
Ji Jiuli followed behind Lin Ning, skipping and hopping.
The young cultivator held the grass, staring intently at the foxtail grass swaying in the wind.
“Husband, can he comprehend what you just said?” Ji Jiuli asked curiously. What Lin Ning said was too profound.
The young cultivator just now looked only fourteen or fifteen years old. Could he understand?
“He can understand.” Lin Ning smiled.
Ji Jiuli was surprised, “Why? Do you know him, Husband?”
Lin Ning nodded, “Yes, I know him. He is the father of Master Sister, Holy Lord Yan Huang, his true name is Yan Huang Taichu!”
“According to the historical records of the Yanhuang Clan, Yan Huang Taichu was already a True God at the age of sixteen, a Young True God!”
“According to the timeline, he will become a god within a year. If he can't even comprehend this much, how could he become a Young True God?”
Listening to Lin Ning's words, Ji Jiuli was greatly shocked.
That young cultivator just now was Nali's father!
He could become a True God at sixteen?
This talent was simply too terrifying!
Lin Ning walked with his hands behind his back, like a leader inspecting, slowly watching the Star Alliance cultivators practice.
From time to time, he offered suggestions, which greatly inspired the cultivators.
After observing these cultivators, Lin Ning sighed with emotion:
“To think that the weakest Star Alliance would give birth to such renowned powerhouses in the future.”
Holy Lord Yan Huang!
Ling Yi, the Spirit Emperor who created the Ultimate Synchronisation.
And Ling Gui of the Spirit Race, who comprehended the Gate of Eternal Night and was known as the Assassin Star!
Night fell.
In the main camp, a bonfire was lit.
The cultivators were arranged in a circle, and in the center of the circle, a divine statue was placed!
“Senior Brother Lin, night has fallen. Would you like to come and observe the Ancestral God together?”
Yan Huang Taichu came to Lin Ning's room and knocked on the door.
“Ancestral God?”
Lin Ning was puzzled. He took Ji Jiuli and followed Yan Huang Taichu.
He discovered that every cultivator in the Star Alliance, including Ling Yi and Ling Gui, were kneeling before the divine statue in the center.
The Ancestral God statue had three heads and six arms, with a benevolent smile. As everyone knelt, it faintly emitted a sacred light that seemed to save all living beings.
In the era Lin Ning was in, most of these one hundred and eight True Gods were innate True Gods, meaning they were created by the Ancestral God.
There were also some acquired True Gods, although they were acquired, they had all received blessings from the Ancestral God and thus became gods.
The Star Alliance members were kneeling before the Ancestral God, observing the Ancestral God's appearance, hoping to grasp the structure of gods.
At this time, there was no distinction between the Human Race and the Demon Race. It is said that these divisions arose later based on different sources of cultivation.
Lin Ning did not kneel before the Ancestral God. His gaze swept over the surrounding members.
“No, these people aren't just trying to become gods; they even want to replace the gods!” Lin Ning thought to himself.
