The God King's Path: Thunder Ancient Nation's Decision

Within the territory of the Thunder Ancient Nation, there is an ancient tree nurtured by heaven and earth, called the Frost Fruit Tree. It bears fruit once every 196 centuries, and the Frost Fruit it produces is an auxiliary resource for cultivating the Primal Chaos Bloodline.

"The Frost Fruit Tree is about to ripen, and the Chaos Realm experts from the Yan Feng Ancient Nation may come to seize it at any time." The one in charge of guarding the Frost Fruit Tree is also a Chaos Realm expert. He has stopped cultivating these days and is focusing all his attention on controlling the formation, always on guard against any enemy.

Every 196 centuries, around the time the fruit ripens, a powerful being will guard the area.

"With my strength, and in conjunction with the formation set up by the God King, even if Chaos Realm Transcendence cultivator were to attack, I could hold them off for a while. Besides, Chaos Realm Transcendence cultivator wouldn't even bother with these few fruits," the gray-robed elder thought.

Each time, the result is only eight seeds, worth only eight thousand merits. Generally, those at the Chaos Realm Transcendence cannot break the formation in a short time, and the Thunder Ancient Nation will send reinforcements.

"Soon."

"The Frost Fruit Tree should ripen tonight." The gray-robed old man had been watching intently, time slowly passing, when suddenly—

The ancient tree, which looked like it had been carved from ice, suddenly emitted a dazzling, cold white light, which then merged into the eight fruits.

Just then—

Wow!

The Black River World has descended, completely sealing off the area where the Frost Fruit Tree is located.

"Not good!" The gray-robed old man exclaimed in alarm, and in an instant he picked the newly ripened fruit.

The mighty black river had already swept in, and the array set up by the God King was directly penetrated and attacked by this terrifying power, and could not stop the river from invading.

The gray-robed old man looked in all directions. Gray mist tried to escape, but it could not penetrate the Black River World.

"World-sealed territory, Black River Domain, is it the Great Sage Luo He?" The gray-robed old man's heart trembled.

The black river water reached the gray-robed old man and condensed into a figure, which was none other than Luo Feng.

"Great Sage Luo He." The gray-robed old man immediately bowed respectfully, not daring to show the slightest disrespect.

"Give me the fruit." Luo Feng looked at him.

"Yes."

The gray-robed old man was very obedient and did not resist at all, handing over the eight fruits to Luo Feng.

He worried that if he resisted, Luo Feng would kill him! Then his Weapon Secret Treasure would be stolen. Those were far more valuable than the eight fruits.

"Whoosh." After collecting eight fruits, the black river and the vast Black River World vanished without a trace in an instant.

The gray-robed old man breathed a sigh of relief, "This Great Sage Luo He is quite merciful; he didn't lay a hand on me."

Since Luo Feng had decided to harvest Heaven and Earth Treasures on a large scale, he had no intention of massacring the guardians! Firstly, with his current strength, he was already considered extremely powerful among the God King First Realm; killing these weaker ones would be an act of bullying the weak. Secondly, killing too many guardians would create too much karma. These Chaos Realm responsible for guarding the area... also had backgrounds and factions within the Thunder Ancient Nation. Making too many enemies and killing too many weaker ones would likely provoke some of the older ones.

Most importantly, Luo Feng detested those who killed indiscriminately.

His intention in this large-scale harvesting of Heaven and Earth Treasures was to force the Thunder Ancient Nation to negotiate and seek a fortuitous opportunity to enter this Treasure Land.

There was no other way; he wasn't Imperial Clan of Two Great Ancient Nations! And he didn't want to cooperate with other races, so this was the only option he could use.

Thunder Ancient Nation, sacred land 'Thunder Mountain'.

A god-king in a deep purple robe sat there, handling a multitude of trivial matters, while a flood of information from the vast ancient kingdom was transmitted to him one by one.

"Oh? Luo He, the number one in the Chaos Realm Transcendence, has seized eight Frost Fruits? This must be his first time competing for Heaven and Earth Treasures from the border." The God-King smiled, his aura calm. "I suppose these Frost Fruit be of some use to him."

He didn't care at all.

Competition for the Chaos Realm at the border is common, and this is the first time Luo Feng has taken action.

Although the Two Great Ancient Nations had a long border and many places that nurtured Heaven and Earth Treasures, there were only about a hundred opportunities to make a move in each era.

After making a move, Luo Feng had to patiently wait for the next one.

On his third journey to compete for the Heaven and Earth Treasures, Luo Feng received some news.

"The Marquis Liu Yin is dead?" Luo Feng stopped in mid-air, very surprised by the news.

"The core members of the Marquis Liu Yin Lineage have disappeared. According to information from the Yan Feng Pavilion, they have likely split into numerous branches and gone into hiding. As for the Marquis Liu Yin... his karma has completely vanished. He has probably chosen to reincarnate."

This kind of pre-arranged Lineage, with everything settled before death, almost certainly indicates a voluntary reincarnation.

"How did I get reincarnated? I originally planned to go find him after my Mind Will reached the God King Ultimate Realm," Luo Feng thought to himself.

His murderous intent towards Marquis Liu Yin stemmed from two factors: firstly, the death of his friend Shang Tianyan; secondly, Marquis Liu Yin 'Marquis Liu Yin penchant for instigating disasters and slaughtering, which was something he enjoyed doing, and his children also relished large-scale killings.

Luo Feng hadn't made a move because he wasn't confident he could completely kill his opponent.

Who would have thought that the other person would be reincarnated first?

Luo Feng stopped thinking about it and continued on his way to compete for the Heaven and Earth Treasures for the third time.

******

Thunder Mountain.

The god-king, clad in a deep purple robe, became solemn.

Luo He first competed for the Heaven and Earth Treasures of the Thunder Ancient Nation, he simply smiled.

The second and third times surprised him somewhat.

By the seventh and eighth time, he sensed something was wrong.

"Fifteen times! The Heaven and Earth Treasures that have recently emerged from the border have been seized by Luo He every time, without fail." The God-King's face was solemn. The fifteen times added up to about 100,000 merits.

The Thunder Ancient Nation doesn't care about this little bit of value.

However, Luo He's behavior made him wary.

"We must report this to the monarch." The God-King immediately rose and went to report to the monarch in person.

A moment later.

Inside a magnificent and vast hall, a figure bathed in Thunder sat high on a throne.

"Monarch."

All nine god-kings bowed respectfully.

"Sit." The golden eyes of the Thunder figure looked down with a terrifying pressure. He was none other than the current ruler of the Thunder Ancient Nation, 'Lei Xiao Emperor Lord'. The nine rulers of the Thunder Ancient Nation were mainly divided into two factions.

The first cultivation method is the Primal Chaos Bloodline of the Thunder Lineage, which is also the path of the Thunder Ancestor. This path is the most mature, but not every descendant is proficient in the Thunder Lineage. After all, the Supreme Rules of the Origin Continent do not include the Thunder Origin Great Path. Therefore, this path is very mature, but also very difficult.

Even in the Thunder Ancient Nation, there were only three monarchs who cultivated the Thunder Primal Chaos Bloodline. They had more perfect Secret Method, more suitable secret treasures, and were even more clear-headed.

There are also six monarchs who cultivate other Primal Chaos Bloodline, which can also be considered a faction.

If we're really going to count, there are also three 'semi-out-of-control' Monarch-level powerhouses who could be considered a faction. After all, when they're conscious, they truly possess Monarch-level strength.

"You should all know the situation," Lei Xiao Emperor Lord, looking at his subordinates. "Tell me, how should we resolve this?"

"The border Two Great Ancient Nations is so long, and Luo He has snatched away the rare Heaven and Earth Treasures fifteen times in a row as they ripened." A burly figure under his command, with bloodshot eyes, said coldly, "Five or six times could be considered a coincidence, but fifteen times in a row... it's definitely not a coincidence! He did it on purpose. If we let him continue like this, over a hundred or a thousand epochs, all those Heaven and Earth Treasures will be given to him? In my opinion, we should just take action and destroy all his avatars, so he won't even have time to reincarnate!"

"Only in this way can we deter all sides. Let the Yan Feng Ancient Nation know that border disputes are fair competitions, and that the Thunder Ancient Nation will not tolerate such wanton plundering," the burly figure said coldly.

"Yes, kill him before he can reincarnate!" another hairy god-king roared.

Lei Xiao Emperor Lord looked down.

Because so many people cultivate the Primal Chaos Bloodline, most of the God-Kings of the Thunder Ancient Nation are somewhat eccentric. Why do they, the Thunder Lineage, hold a higher status? Strength is one factor, but another is their greater clarity of mind.

"I want to ask, how can we completely kill him?" a woman in gorgeous robes said leisurely. "This Luo He cultivates the three fundamental paths of life, destruction, and matter, and has countless avatars! Some of these avatars even reside in Chu Capital. Please tell me... how do I get to Chu Capital and kill a being with countless avatars who is considered extremely powerful even at the God King First Realm?"

"That's Chu Capital! Chu Capital was personally crafted by the Yan Feng Ancestor, and it's also under the jurisdiction of Emperor Chu! The power of Chu Du will be greatly reduced due to the permeation of cause and effect, how can we kill it?" The woman in the gorgeous robe looked at the other god kings.

The other god-kings fell silent.

"Of course we can't do it, but monarchs can," the burly figure finally spoke.

"You mean, ask the monarch to take action? For such a trivial matter, to send a monarch to the Chu Capital of the Yan Feng Ancient Nation?" The woman in the gorgeous robes shook her head. "Firstly, if the monarch takes action, it would be bullying the weak, and the entire Origin Continent would laugh at us."

"Secondly, in a place like Chu Capital, with Luo He's ability to create countless clones to save his life, and with the protection of Emperor Chu ... even if the monarch can kill him, Luo He can reincarnate in a short time. After reincarnation, Luo He will definitely hide away, and when he becomes a God-King, his strength will be much greater than it is now. He might not be inferior to me," said the woman in the gorgeous robes.

"Thirdly, don't forget Emperor Chu's temperament! If our monarch were to bully the weak and march on Chu Capital to kill his disciples, what would Emperor Chu do?" The woman in the gorgeous robes swept her gaze across everyone present.

The god-kings fell silent.

Yes.

The Thunder Ancient Nation first bullied the weak, displaying its domineering nature. Emperor Chu would never tolerate this! Once Emperor Chu takes action, although the other emperors behind it may be fighting amongst themselves, they will definitely unite against external threats.

"Most importantly, the border Two Great Ancient Nations is left for the Chaos Realm to fight over. This was established by the two progenitors," said the woman in the magnificent robes. "This is also to hone the Chaos Realm cultivators of both kingdoms! Let them fight and kill each other, and the stronger will gain resources. Luo He is also Chaos Realm, and he has always followed the rules when vying for Heaven and Earth Treasures. Now, just because he is strong, you want to take action? Doesn't this mean that our Thunder Ancient Nation is petty?"

"To break the rules set by the ancestor for such a trivial matter, what kind of behavior is this?" The woman in the gorgeous robes swept her gaze over her companions.

"What can we do? He keeps fighting over the Heaven and Earth Treasures." The burly god-king stared at the other party with his blood-red eyes.

"Just talk to Luo He; it's a small matter that can be resolved through negotiation," said the woman in the gorgeous robes, smiling as she swept her gaze over the group of god-kings.

A bunch of fools.

She truly looked down on these companions. Even without cultivating the Primal Chaos Bloodline, she was already Invincible Tier at the God King First Realm! A hegemon of the Origin Continent.

She is ambitious. The further she goes without external help, the stronger she will become with the help of the Primal Chaos Bloodline! She may even become the new monarch.

"I support God King Jia Yin."

"Yes, we can't break the ancestral rules." Three god-kings immediately spoke up.

Lei Xiao Emperor Lord nodded in satisfaction.

His most valued subordinate, 'God King Jia Yin,' was someone who had become invincible at the God King First Realm without relying on external forces. In the Thunder Ancient Nation, strength equals status. God King Jia Yin possessed sufficient strength and was absolutely clear-headed! His actions were extremely appropriate.

Other Hegemon-level beings are mostly too crazy and unrestrained.

"Jiayin, I'll leave this matter to you," Lei Xiao Emperor Lord said.

"Yes, Your Majesty," the woman in the magnificent robes replied.

Lei Xiao Emperor Lord immediately rose and vanished. The woman in the magnificent robes also disappeared into thin air.

"Hmph." The burly god-king's blood-red eyes were filled with anger as he glanced at the spot where the woman in the gorgeous robes had disappeared. "Cultivating the Boundless Origin Great Path, all you know how to do is hide."

He disliked God King Jia Yin very much and even tried to fight him, but he could never touch him.
