He emerged from blood and fire.
The world is on the verge of collapse.
Eighteen streaks of scarlet blood,
He was sent into the silent winter night.
A naive young snake,
Heeding the devil's slander,
A long sleep spanning seven epochs,
The ice melted silently.
Juvenile,
An undying passion
End everything...
This short poem was carved on a stone tablet by a Plane Wanderer shortly after the Dees Family entered this Time Plane.
That seemingly inconspicuous stone tablet has stood for many eras, unchanged despite the changing times; every character remains as clear as if it were just carved a few minutes ago.
However, this stone tablet was not truly noticed until seven eras ago. This was because seven eras ago, an extremely ruthless and powerful being descended upon this plane, easily killing even the strongest beings in the plane, and the entire plane faced a tremendous crisis of near collapse.
Countless people searched for a way to defeat that powerful figure, and the stone tablet, which had existed for countless epochs, finally saw the light of day again. Following the guidance on the stone tablet, eighteen powerful individuals, with the help of the Space-Time Scepter, joined forces to seal that powerful figure away.
Thus, the prophecy on the stone tablet became fully known and widely circulated.
The "he" described on the stone tablet was none other than the very person who had caused both Du Kao and Koloff to turn pale.
The two appeared at the same time not far from the Black Planet, but when they arrived, they found that they were too late.
Gu Ding has activated the Release Password, and the huge Black Planet has begun to disintegrate automatically, with a powerful and terrifying aura radiating in all directions.
Faced with that powerful and terrifying aura, Gu Ding felt the hairs on the back of his head stand on end, and he retreated rapidly. But before he could escape, two members of the Dees Family's Elder Council appeared, putting him in a passive position. In particular, Du Kao's slightly threatening glance made him dare not make any further moves.
Belanger stared blankly in the direction of the Black Planet's explosion, a strange expression on his face.
"Belanger, what have you done?!" A loud shout pierced through the vacuum and echoed outwards.
This not only brought Belanger back to his senses immediately, but even Gu Ding was not far away, heard it clearly.
Only then did Belanger notice the presence of the two elders. He was taken aback at first, and when he saw Du Kao, a look of fear flashed in his eyes.
"I'm asking you a question, so answer me honestly. If you lie, you know the consequences," Du Kao warned in a low voice.
Although reluctant, Belanger dared not conceal anything further. "The thing is, I learned from a rumor that a powerful elder of our Dees Family is imprisoned on this Black Planet. I heard he was once possessed by a demon, is insane, and extremely dangerous, but he possesses a method to become a god. I want to rescue him, follow him, and extract the cultivation method to become a god. If I become a god, my status will be promoted to elder, granting me a one-time exemption from family punishment..."
"That's all bullshit!!!" Du Kao interrupted Belanger with an unfriendly expression. "The mess you've made this time is something you can't undo even if you die a hundred times."
"Belanger, you've really messed up this time!" Koloff frowned deeply. "What you released wasn't some family ancestor at all, but that great demon from seven eras ago! The family sacrificed eighteen powerful ancestors to seal him away, but now you've released him so easily."
"How... how could this be?!" Belanger was stunned, his face filled with disbelief. "But... isn't this the prison for family members? Why are outsiders being held here?"
"This Black Planet is where the Space-Time Scepter first appeared, and it's also the planet with the most powerful time-space rules in the entire Black Hell. Only this planet can suppress that guy," Koloff explained helplessly. Although he and Du Kao started repairing the seal as soon as they arrived, they only slightly slowed down the speed at which the imprisoned guy broke free.
Du Kao's face was icy cold as his gaze fell on Gu Ding again. "Who is that guy? He's not a Direct Lineage member of our family, is he? Belanger, don't you know that besides our Direct Lineage family members, only members of the Elder Council are allowed to enter and exit this Black Hell? Bringing in outsiders like that shows you haven't really learned the family Clan Rules properly. When we get back, you'll first have to copy the Clan Rules a million times by hand. As for other subsequent punishments, I'll discuss them with the Grand Elder. You won't be let off easily!"
Du Kao's words left no room for negotiation. Belanger had always been afraid of him, partly because he was a more powerful figure than the Grand Elder, and partly because of his personality.
Belanger's face was full of bitterness. He never expected that his painstaking efforts to obtain the method to ascend to godhood would result in the release of a terrifying being that could destroy the entire Dees Family.
"As for you, you'd better stay quiet and wait until we've dealt with things here before deciding how to deal with you." Du Kao didn't really care who Gu Ding was; he only knew that Gu Ding wasn't a Direct Lineage member of the family and couldn't enter this Black Hell. "If you choose to escape, I'll have to deal with you sooner rather than later."
"This junior understands..." Gu Ding knew the other party was not joking. If he acted rashly, there was a high chance he would be killed on the spot. Moreover, the other party was a powerful god, so he had no choice but to compromise.
"This guy is called Du Kao, the Fourth Elder of the Dees Family. He should be Third Sequence Heavenly God now, and his Combat Strength is said to be the strongest among the twelve Celestials of the entire Dees Family, capable of fighting against Advanced Sequence. However, this data is from millions of years ago, and he may be even stronger!" The Sea Emperor quickly gathered information about Du Kao.
"The middle-aged man next to you is named Koloff, the sixth elder of the Dees Family. He is Second Sequence Celestial God, not a combat-type powerhouse, but his Combat Strength is equivalent to that of Fifth Sequence Celestial God. For you, he is still an insurmountable peak. The Combat Strength of a Celestial God is far inferior to that of a True God."
The Sea Emperor's message was clearly not good news. Although it gave Gu Ding some understanding of his opponents, it wasn't very useful. The difference in strength between Gu Ding and these two was simply too great; knowing their strength was of little consequence.
Gu Ding overheard every word of the conversation between Du Kao and Belanger. He found it hard to imagine what kind of person could make two gods so cautious, or what kind of monster it could be.
The fiery light from the explosion of the Black Planet finally erupted completely, and at the same time, a figure darted out along with the flames...
