Ancestral God's Rebirth
🕑 Added 2024-02-21 15:42:21 +0000 UTC--- Chapter 169 ---
On the vast ocean, Yu Long hovered above the seawater.
Yu Long gathered many essence spheres from his Kaiju World. He has collected many rare and unique ones to make a new body for the Ancestral God, but he doubts they would be enough for her.
The Ancestral God is the first being that comes into existence in the Primal Chaos. Strictly speaking, she was also the Primal Chaos's consciousness.
Such a mighty being is bound to possess limitless traits Yu Long can't replicate easily. Heck, she's the literal ancestor of God Race and Devil Race.
However, who said Yu Long can't make some of those traits better than before?
If Yu Long wanted to compare, he was also a God of his own. Well, he didn't like to play such a character in the first place.
"Have you gathered it all?" Yu Long asked the empty air while floating in the sky.
"Aye, aye, captain!" An invisible person responded.
A large glob of essence appeared before Yu Long, sporting crimson and dark color. These are the essence of the unfortunate casualty of the fight between Lily, Hong Guan, and Dullahan.
Most of the death was 'actually' caused by Dullahan's blind attacks, as he would do anything to kill Lily and Hong Guan without regard for his surroundings.
From it, Yu Long could hear the wail of death, anger, and sadness.
Yu Long wasn't a Saint, but he did feel emphatic for these unfortunate souls. His power is not omnipotent as he couldn't revive the death to its original form, not with his current realm, so he decided to use these unfortunate souls as catalysts to bring the Ancestral God back.
Yu Long's golden eyes gleamed with profoundness, 'The life of ordinary people is unfortunate. Weak people are even more unfortunate, so I hope your sorrow awakens a shred of Ancestral God's true emotion.'
Of course, Yu Long wasn't a complete monster.
Although he used the word 'catalyst' in his plan, all he did was give these unfortunate souls their last moment to part from the world of living.
He breathed in and gazed at the sky, "The weather is just right."
Yu Long cleared his throat and declared firmly, "All Kaiju who weren't on duty, you may come out and protect the surrounding area from the destruction I was about to create!"
He didn't stop there and also summoned his Profound Incarnations, the Seven Deadly Sins.
"Yes, My Lord/Your Highness/Monarch/Master!!"
Several shadows appeared, coming in different sizes and shapes. The sheer line-up of Yu Long's force is enough to trample any Royal Star Realm.
They followed Yu Long's orders and went to different locations.
Yu Long activated [Kaiju Maker] to the limit and put his hands to summon countless raw essence spheres from his inner world. Each with immense vitality and ability.
Yup, Yu Long is going to be broke after this.
Six different images appeared above Yu Long with a swarm of bright fireflies. These images included violet mist, a ghostly king's shadow, a hideous monster in ashes, a dark gold pagoda, a river of gold and light, and a chaotic flower. These images represent his primary Profound Art, while the fireflies are the support he cultivated on the side.
"Next..." Yu Long calls forth the Primordial Core. Technically speaking, this is also one of the Profound Art he cultivated, which is [Summer Moon Grandmist[, but he let it run automatically.
It's more like an energy refiner than other Profound Arts, which contains the God Legacy or Yu Long's martial insight.
"Let's start." Yu Long closed his eyes and focused on operating [Kaiju Maker].
Under his delicate control, the raw essence spheres melt and slowly merge into three liquid orbs.
White, black, and red.
The white liquid is the composite of spiritual essences like soul and mental power.
The black liquid is pure dark matter, which shouldn't be confused with 'Dark Matter' in the scientific realm, as it was a new type of universal material Yu Long produced to shape his Kaiju.
The very component of this material is infinite atomic-sized vitality, compressed for molding physical(whether organic or inorganic) matter according to Yu Long's wishes.
And lastly, red liquid. It was a trait, like DNA or what Yu Long called a trace of existence. Of course, it's not just one trait because inside the red liquid are countless microgenes.
Yu Long stretched his right arm and used the remnant of unfortunate souls to trigger three liquids' transformation. From time to time, he could hear grateful whispers.
But Yu Long focused on the three liquids, which slowly rotated and blended into one.
Thunderclouds appeared above Yu Long's head.
It was a sign of calamity lightning.
"Everyone, use your power to protect Yu Long!" Zilong's eyes widened as he roared at the sky. All Kaiju in the vicinity and Profound Incarnations made their moves, creating a dome around Yu Long.
'It's also time to break into the Divine Origin Realm.' Yu Long cast a proud look at his Kaiju.
He clasped his hand and clenched hard, "Form."
BOOM!
A lightning strike fell on Yu Long.
As if the universe was mad at Yu Long, he got struck by lightning every millisecond. However, the tribulations made Yu Long even more sturdy with every strike.
His Primordial Core spun like no tomorrow, emitting this platinum-gold hue.
"Bless!" Yu Long's Primordial Core released a screeching noise as a beam of Primordial Aura fell onto the merging Essence Sphere.
Ancestral God's soul jumped from Yu Long's confines and flew into the swirling chaos he created.
Ding!
The sound of a bell ringing appeared in Yu Long's head.
"Okay, that doesn't sound good." Yu Long lifted his head and saw a cosmic dust storm gathered above the Blue Pole Star.
As the dust rapidly collided against each other, an electricity level Yu Long hadn't sensed before came into existence.
Yu Long gritted his teeth and cursed the universe, "Damn."
Crack!
A spatial tear appeared, and the storm above sent its first judgment.
The lightning didn't enter the atmosphere but entered the spatial tear instead.
It was a colorless and dangerous force of destruction.
"Fuck-!" Yu Long saw the other side of the spatial tear appear above his head, bypassing the dome his Kaiju created.
BOOOOOOOOOM!
"Yu Long!"
"Master!"
"My Lord!"
Several worried cries echoed in the area.
Yu Long spewed a mouthful of blood and experienced brain-ripping pain all over his body. His clothes got torn, well burned into ashes, which is the more proper way to say it.
That lightning strike is dangerous. To injure Yu Long's body to this degree is something not many could achieve.
"Hmm?" As he wiped the blood from his mouth, he sensed the [Great Way of the Buddha], which hadn't shown much progress, finally flowing rapidly.
The dark gold pagoda shone brightly.
He grinned, "It said that no one ever reaches the Seventh Stage of [Great Way of the Buddha], as the body just can't contain the tyrannical energy and explode."
"Not to mention, this era's Primordial Energy is near extinct."
"I've reached the peak mortal of Saint Body, but it seems there is another way to advance further."
"Come on, strike me!" Yu Long flipped his finger at the storm above.
BOOM!
Responding to Yu Long's vulgar taunt, the storm sent yet another lightning strike.
Yu Long's body and cultivation base advanced slowly under the calamity of lightning trials. However, his mind always focused on creating Ancestral God's new body.
After six lightning strikes, Yu Long huffed and felt his dark gold pagoda was about to crumble apart.
Such tenacity. Even God and the Devil cannot compare to the [Kaiju Maker].
Meanwhile, the new vessel for Ancestral God is also about to be completed.
"It's the last one, huh?" Yu Long discerned that the storm mustered every strength into this last lightning strike. He glanced at the solidifying vessel and bitterly laughed, "You're really getting me into a complete mess."
"Well, here we go."
"Come on, strike me again if you have the balls!"
A spatial tear appeared, allowing the Lightning of Destruction to reach Yu Long.
Yu Long clenched his fist and punched the air with all he had.
[Art of True Apex - 2nd Layer: King of Monsters' Domination]
BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!
Two forces collided and caused space and time disturbance.
"I'm the winner..." Yu Long declared while seeing the lightning calamity storm scatter away. He lost all his strength for a moment, and a graceful figure unexpectedly embraced him from behind.
It wasn't any of his wives or companions.
A woman in a simple white dress hugged Yu Long tightly.
She stood nearly 180 centimeters with cascade-like white hair, a fair complexion, and a peerless goddess-like appearance.
Yet a black blindfold covered her eyes, making her look like someone devoted herself to a religion.
"Oh, It's you..." Yu Long sighed in relief.
"I've fulfilled my part of the deal."
"And it's your turn now to fulfill your part now." Finishing his words, Yu Long fainted on the spot.
The blindfolded woman caressed Yu Long's face and mumbled, "He actually did it..."
"Given our contract, I will be your servant for the next two hundred years."
"This can also count as repenting for my irresponsible past actions..."
"Let's take care of each other from now on."
"Yu Long-!" The blindfolded woman paused and then let out a hearty chuckle. "Ah, wait... I should call you Master now~!"
