Just as Zhang Junbao suddenly disappeared, in another mysterious place on Viska Star, outside the headquarters of the Ancestral God Hall, the scene was in complete disarray. The three elders of the Ancestral God Hall were seriously injured and did not even have the strength to stand. They were kneeling on the ground, barely holding on.
The three elders all had purplish-black scales on their faces, and most peculiarly, they each had a single horn on their heads that was very similar to the top of the Ancestral God Hall.
" Luok Sita, how dare you invade the Ancestral God Hall! The Ancestral God will not let you get away with this!" An elder's eyes were filled with rage. The Innate Rune between his brows had long since shattered, leaving him practically a cripple. Even the single horn on his head had been broken off. Clearly, in order to unleash a powerful force, this elder had chosen to unleash all his strength. Yet, even so, he still couldn't inflict the slightest damage on his opponent.
He was the eldest elder among the five elders guarding the Ancestral God Tomb. Despite possessing the strength of King Level expert, he was defeated in less than ten minutes before the leader of the Ancestral God Religion. Even when he unleashed the secret technique left behind by the Ancestral God, he still could not turn the tide.
Everything suggests that the gap between his strength and that of Luok Sita, the leader of the Ancestral God Religion, is as insurmountable as an insurmountable chasm.
The remaining two elders, also besieged by the three protectors of the Ancestral God Religion, were seriously injured and their divine bodies were so exhausted that they were about to fall into a deep sleep.
As the Grand Elder guarding the Ancestral God Tomb, he never imagined that the Ancestral God Religion, an organization that had hidden so many things on Viska Star, would possess such terrifying strength.
The three protectors of the Ancestral God Religion alone possessed strength no weaker than the elders of the Ancestral God Hall, not to mention the even more terrifying sect leader.
In recent years, the Ancestral God Hall has focused solely on protecting the Ancestral God Tomb, resulting in extremely poor control over other forces on Viska Star.
The elders of the Ancestral God Hall are all loyal to the will of the Ancestral God. Their greatest task is to protect the relics of the Ancestral God and to teach the Viska Star People with the will of the Ancestral God.
Unfortunately, as it turned out, even when the entire race was in danger, some restless individuals still believed they could change everything and turn the tide. Even though the Ancestral God Hall kept Ancestral God's will to keep the entire Viska Star dormant, it could not change their minds.
"Elder, you still want to hide it now."
" Ancestral God? Well then, let him come out! I'll be waiting right here! Enough nonsense, hand over the Ancestral God's relics, or I can announce right now that the Ancestral God Hall is gone!" Luok Sita laughed wildly.
"You! The relics of the Ancestral God must not be disturbed, or Viska Star will face annihilation! Don't you know that there are terrifying guardians in the Golden Crow Hall in the heavens?" The Grand Elder of the Ancestral God Hall was filled with despair. The Ancestral God Hall had protected Viska Star for so many years, was it going to be completely destroyed today?
"Master, why waste words with a few old men? Just suppress them directly," a protector with murderous intent in his eyes shouted.
"A mere few guardians dare to stop the Lord? You old bastards have been dogs for too long and have forgotten how to stand up like human beings."
The time has come for those extraterrestrials to imprison Viska Star for countless epochs. Even if the will of the Ancestral God still exists, he will absolutely not allow his people to be imprisoned here by a group of extraterrestrials!
"Step aside, Elder. Considering your many years of guarding the relics in the Ancestral God Tomb, which is quite meritorious, I will spare your lives. Once you obtain the Ancestral God's relics, even the Golden Crow Hall in the heavens will be no match for me." The Ancestral God Religion leader Luok Sita, displayed a compassionate demeanor, as if sparing this Elder was his greatest act of mercy.
"You... you have already reached that level?" The Grand Elder looked at Luok Sita in horror.
"That's right, I have already reached a level surpassing that of the Divine Talisman Emperor, but I suppressed my aura to avoid being discovered by the Golden Crow Hall in the sky. Now you should know, the future of Viska Star is in my hands," Luok Sita said.
"Impossible! Even if you reach that level, you still wouldn't be a match for the one in the Golden Crow Hall!"
That's why I need the relics of the Ancestral God.
The Ancestral God's remains in Divine Bone Mountain have lost all their spiritual energy and are nothing more than empty skeletons. Any creature that enters the area of Divine Bone Mountain without permission will have all its energy drained and turn into withered bones, all for the purpose of nurturing the Exquisite Jade. Now the Exquisite Jade is already in my possession.
Do you still want to make a futile struggle?
"What? Even the Exquisite Jade has fallen into your hands? Impossible! The Ancestral God Hall has already sent two elders, and you already have three powerful experts at the Divine Talisman Emperor level. Could you possibly send three more?" the First Elder exclaimed in surprise.
"I do not have three other protectors, but one is enough. Elder Casper of the Ancestral God Hall is already one of my men, didn't you know that?"
" Casper!"
The First Elder then understood why the two elders who went to Divine Bone Mountain to collect the Bi Xue Jade had not yet returned to provide support.
Since Casper betrayed the Ancestral God Hall, Reitna has likely been suppressed or even killed.
"But something is missing from the top of Divine Bone Mountain, and the Ancestral God's Spirit Rhinoceros has vanished without a trace. According to historical records, those invaders from beyond the heavens did not take it away. The only possibility is that the Ancestral God's Ancestral God Lingxi, was hidden by you in the Ancestral God Tomb. Am I right?" Luok Sita said confidently.
The Grand Elder's face was extremely grim. The Ancestral God Ancestral God Lingxi was a part of the body that contained the most mysterious Innate Secret Technique of the Ancestral God left to Viska Star before his fall, so that the Viska Star People could one day return to the universe. This was also the biggest secret in the Ancestral God Hall of Viska Star.
But definitely not now. The Grand Elder knew very well that even if Luok Sita took away the Ancestral God Lingxi and combined it with the Exquisite Jade, he still wouldn't be a match for the Heavenly Golden Crow Hall.
Of everyone present, only the Grand Elder had survived from the era of the Ancestral God, and only he knew just how terrifying the strength of the guardians from beyond the heavens truly was.
Unfortunately, his talent was insufficient, and he was unable to break through to the next level for a long time. Another reason that made him wary was that the Golden Crow Hall, which guarded the outer heavens, allowed the existence of Divine Talisman Emperor, but would never allow someone who broke through the limits of Divine Talisman Emperor and became Universe Venerable level powerhouse to be born on Viska Star.
Any Viska Star People attempts to break this taboo will be completely annihilated.
"Now is not the time for the Ancestral God Lingxi to be born. If you take it away now, it will only plunge Viska Star into utter destruction!"
You absolutely cannot defeat the born guardian! He too has broken through the limits of the Divine Talisman Emperor, and is a being at the Universe Venerable level!
Now that things have come to this, the Grand Elder can no longer care about secrets; he must protect the last hope for the rise of Viska Star.
Originally, according to the will of the Ancestral God, the intention was to let Viska Star lie dormant for billions of epochs before giving birth to a large number of top-tier Divine Talisman Emperor, that is, beings at the Peak King Rank.
Only when they collectively break through to become Universe Venerable with the help of the Exquisite Jade and the Ancestral God Lingxi will they have the means to truly contend with the Golden Crow Hall.
But now, it's too early.
"Too early! It's not the right time yet!" the First Elder roared.
But Luok Sita kicked the Grand Elder aside and strode into the Ancestral God Tomb behind the Grand Elder.
He had waited too long for this moment and would not allow anyone to stand in his way.
At the same time, Zhang Junbao suddenly found himself being teleported to another place along with Exquisite Jade.
Who are you? Where is the Flame God?
A loud shout caught Zhang Junbao's attention. He instinctively took control of his domain, covering the surrounding area. Being forcibly teleported, it was obvious that this was definitely the enemy's lair.
Those guarding the teleportation array realized something was wrong and immediately activated a suppression array. Countless secret runes lit up around them instantly, and a force of spacetime confinement trapped Zhang Junbao and Qing Yan in place.
" Control of Space-Time? It can actually simulate the Control of Space-Time that only Universe Master can possess, using the power of a magic array!"
Zhang Junbao was all too familiar with the forces that were trapping him. They were forces of almost identical nature to his own Space-Time Domain.
However, his Space-Time Domain is an ability that comes with him when the domain awakens, and it is True Meaning of Taiji meaning of Tai Chi that he has mastered.
The Space-Time Domain surrounding his body is now simulated by an array of runes created by this mysterious place.
"No, although the surrounding area is Control of Space-Time the power of the Space-Time Law of spacetime, this power is far too weak compared to that of the Universe Master!"
Zhang Junbao was quite familiar with the power of the Universe Master to Control of Space-Time. In order to study the power of his own domain, Zhang Junbao once asked the Chaos City Lord to let him experience the power of truly Control of Space-Time. That kind of all-round spacetime suppression would definitely make those deep in the domain feel deep despair.
Only those Control of Space-Time can fight against those Control of Space-Time. This is one of the reasons why the Universe Venerable is almost powerless against the universe.
Universe Master can completely control a region of space and time can suppress other powerful beings within his domain in every way.
However, the domain surrounding Zhang Junbao's body is similar to his Control of Space-Time, but it is an incomplete Control of Space-Time.
"Interesting!"
Feeling a sense of familiarity around him, Zhang Junbao inexplicably smiled.
"Is this the headquarters of the Ancestral God Religion?" Zhang Junbao asked.
"Who exactly are you? The fact that you were able to teleport here with the Exquisite Jade means the Exquisite Jade is in your hands. Will you hand it over yourselves, or will I kill you and then take it?"
A burly old man with white hair stepped forward and spoke. He possessed an imposing aura and his words were domineering and left no room for argument.
The old man could sense that the two people inside the magic array were Qing Yan, who was at the Domain Lord Level, and Zhang Junbao, who was only at the Universe Level. Even without the suppression of the magic array, these two were nothing more than ants in his eyes.
Qing Yan was suppressed by the Space-Time Domain and could not move. His face was full of fear. He never expected that there would be so many powerful people waiting on the other side of the formation.
These people were originally preparing to welcome the return of the Flame God, but unexpectedly, instead of the Flame God, they were greeted by Zhang Junbao and Qing Yan.
But Zhang Junbao laughed.
Although the old man was very imposing, he was merely a World Lord.
What happened next completely overturned the old man's entire understanding of the world.
Zhang Junbao actually walked out of the magic array that Control of Space-Time and time with ease.
"How is this possible? The power of this formation can easily suppress even ordinary Divine Talisman Emperor! Only the Sect Master can withstand the power of this formation!" the old man exclaimed in horror.
This Law that Control of Space-Time is similar to Zhang Junbao's Space-Time Domain; both have a suppressive effect on top and bottom. And the upper limit of this Law is the King Level Immortal.
That's why the Ancestral God Religion is so at ease. Even if King Level Immortal is trapped inside the magic array and unable to move, he can only be manipulated by those outside.
But they never expected that someone like Zhang Junbao would possess the power to Control of Space-Time before even the Universe Master.
Zhang Junbao enveloped himself in Space-Time Domain and easily stepped out of the magic circle.
"Is this the lair of the Ancestral God Religion? I thought I wouldn't be able to find it, but I stumbled upon it by accident. In that case, I might as well be impolite."
Zhang Junbao said with a smile.
But to the old man, his smile seemed like the smile of a devil.
"Just who is this young man before us? He's definitely not as simple as he appears. A magic array that only the sect leader could withstand couldn't trap him. Could it be that the Ancestral God Hall is hiding a powerhouse on par with the sect leader?"
The old man panicked. At this moment, the Ancestral God Religion was practically defenseless, as it was hidden in a mysterious place and protected by a magic array.
Only then did the leader of the Ancestral God Religion feel at ease enough to send out all the guardians at the Divine Talisman Emperor level. However, he did not expect that his main base would be attacked by Zhang Junbao.
"Now that you're here, it would be a bit unfair of me to leave empty-handed!"
Zhang Junbao laughed and said that from the first day he entered Viska Star, Zhang Junbao had made an enemy of the Ancestral God Religion.
First, they killed one of their envoys, and then they were tricked by the Ancestral God Religion and plunged into the crisis of Divine Bone Mountain.
If he hadn't possessed numerous trump cards, he would probably have already been transformed into Cosmic Energy and used as a blood sacrifice for the Exquisite Jade.
Therefore, Zhang Junbao had absolutely no goodwill towards the Ancestral God Religion.
Now that there are no Immortal Expert guarding this place, he can do whatever he wants!
"You're asking for death! Follow me and kill this man!"
When the old man saw Zhang Junbao emerge, he launched a series of attacks, and a group of Domain Lord Level around him joined forces to bombard Zhang Junbao.
However, before their attack could take effect, they were enveloped in a layer of mist.
" In the Chaos First Opens!"
Zhang Junbao was not careless. Although he was protected by the Divine Fire Armor, Zhang Junbao preferred to take the initiative and was not in the nature of being passively attacked.
"What is this? Why didn't my attack work on him?" The old man was horrified. The golden giant sword he had unleashed had completely disintegrated in mid-air.
Not only that, the attacks of other Domain Lord Level also failed, and their Law attacks were all transformed into Cosmic Energy, replenishing the Spacetime Mist.
"My body is melting, save me..."
"Help me..."
More and more screams echoed from the Spacetime Mist.
Finally, it gradually disappeared.
The leader of the Ancestral God Religion never imagined that his plan, which he had meticulously devised for millions of epochs, would be ambushed at the very last moment before its implementation.
My home is gone!
