A revolution against the gods (1/3)

"You're too smart, even smarter than Wu Yao."

"My coming here wasn't actually Grandma's idea; I just wanted to get to know you myself."

After a long silence, the Kingfisher finally spoke again.

"You should know who your opponent is this time, right?"

"Otherwise, you wouldn't have gone out of your way to get that silly cat Xiluo away, and you wouldn't have said these things to me."

"But I still have to tell you, your opponent this time is indeed a Heavenly Deity in person."

"Although the Green Wood Clan is not as Roaring Heaven Clan, you are also unable to utilize the power of the dragon veins of the entire Hundred Lands Mountain Range this time." The voice suddenly paused, Kingfisher looked at the unmoving Li Boyang, momentarily unsure whether its judgment was correct.

After all, before this, the Kingfisher had never expected that someone would be able to use the power of the dragon veins of the entire Hundred Lands Mountain Range to fight against the enemy.

"Fine, whether you can harness the power of the dragon vein or not, Green Wood Clan is a true Heavenly Deity."

"A Heavenly Deity, especially a Heavenly Deity is desperate, is capable of anything."

Selectively ignore the meaningless advice in the Kingfisher's words.

Li Boyang merely raised an eyebrow slightly, astutely catching the key words.

"Put all one's eggs in one basket?"

"It seems something major has indeed happened in the Guifang Kingdom, even the Gods of the Five Directions are helpless?"

Having finally confirmed one of his guesses, Li Boyang even threw the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron as evidence.

Since you've already brought this up, can you reveal a little more?

Speechless as she watched Li Boyang push his luck, the Kingfisher finally realized who Xiluo's recent changes resembled.

Do you know the origin of the Gods of the Five Directions?

After another moment of silence, the Kingfisher looked at the Mountain Hollow Village getting closer and closer, and finally let out a long sigh.

"A thousand years ago, before the Guifang Tribe was yet the Guifang Kingdom— "

"At that time, the Roaring Heaven Clan was not even the real Roaring Heaven Clan," but rather an Ancestor God who could barely protect his clan and tribe.

He cannot summon storms, nor is he qualified to command thunder---

"Compared to mountain gods and river gods in a broader sense, the Roaring Heaven Clan at that time was simply a primordial god."

"Perhaps after thousands of years of sacrifices, the Roaring Heaven Clan will transform into a god who controls storms and thunder--"

"But before that, all I could do was be a willing but powerless Ancestor God, an embodiment of the resentment and bitterness of Innate Divine Being after its death."

The kingfisher glanced at Li Boyang, Kingfisher was listening intently, and sighed again.

Then, the Guirong Clan appeared---

No one knows the origins of the Guirong Clan.

No one can even be certain whether the Guirong Clan was the original god of the Guifang Tribe.

The only thing the Kingfisher was certain of was that it was from the time when the Guirong Clan was enshrined as a deity by the Guifang Tribe the Roaring Heaven Clan gradually began to become the embodiment of storms and thunder.

What was originally a symbol of fear for the Guifang Tribe became their true god at that moment.

It took nearly a thousand years for the Roaring Heaven Clan to successfully complete his transformation from the most primitive Ancestor God to the local Land God who protected the area, and then to the Heavenly Deity Houtianshi who symbolized natural disasters.

This also transformed the Guifang Tribe into the powerful Guifang Kingdom of today.

During this process, the Green Wood Clan, the Tide-Swallowing Clan, and the Tufang Clan also joined the Guifang Kingdom in various ways, together forming a complete system of Gods of the Five Directions.

However, not long after Li Boyang defeated Roaring Heaven Clan.

A massive religious reform, specifically targeting the Roaring Heaven Clan, suddenly swept through the territory of the Guifang Kingdom.

With the full support of the ruler Chongming, all altars and temples dedicated to the Roaring Heaven Clan were smashed.

The altars and temples of the four gods were also affected, and many were destroyed in the massive reform.

But that's where the strange thing happens.

This is a world where gods truly exist, and the Gods of the Five Directions are Heavenly Deity who transcend ordinary gods.

Faced with this act of tarnishing their own reputation and destroying their own temple, the Gods of the Five Directions surprisingly remained eerily silent.

"That sounds a bit unbelievable, doesn't it?"

Li Boyang's eyes widened in slight surprise; he was truly stunned this time.

Although the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron can occupy the territory, it is essentially an "occupation based on big data," rather than a true premonition before the event occurs.

The situation regarding the Guifang Kingdom and the Gods of the Five Directions is unclear.

Li Boyang never imagined that in this era where gods were the main characters, there would actually be mortals who would launch a revolution against the gods.

The most outrageous thing is that the Gods of the Five Directions remained silent throughout, which clearly indicates that there was something fishy going on.

"It sounds incredible, but it's true."

"But if you don't view the Gods of the Five Directions as a whole, you'll realize that this is actually a very normal thing."

The Kingfisher's voice was unusually calm, and it recounted this history without the slightest emotional fluctuation.

Since she had already decided to tell Li Boyang the origin of the Gods of the Five Directions, she naturally wouldn't hide any details.

"In most cases, Roaring Heaven Clan can represent the Gods of the Five Directions."

"Just like when you fought the Gods of the Five Directions last time, all three gods except for the Guirong Clan made a move..."

"However, in case of unforeseen circumstances, there can be conflicts of interest among the Gods of the Five Directions."

Upon hearing this, Li Boyang immediately recalled the situation at that time.

He felt at the time that the relationship between the Gods of the Five Directions was abnormal—the Guirong Clan seemed to have a tendency to quietly replace the Roaring Heaven Clan as the dominant force.

"Is the essence of this reform a divine war instigated by the Guirong Clan?"

"So that's why these deities stood by and watched all of this happen?"

Neither confirming nor denying Li Boyang's guess, the Kingfisher simply recounted everything it knew.

This red-haired boy, who possesses the ability to seize power, will naturally go and verify the truth.

"The Tufang Clan were demon Ghost God created by the Guirong Clan using the Imprisoned Soul Cauldron. They were born with immense power, but had lost all reason and were uncontrollable."

"Only the Roaring Heaven Clan can control the opponent with absolute power, making them the biggest unstable factor in the Gods of the Five Directions system."

"The Tide-Swallowing Clan was once the sworn enemy of the Roaring Heaven Clan. Although they have now submitted to the Roaring Heaven Clan, no one knows what they are really thinking."

"Needless to say, the Guirong Clan holds a position in the Guifang Kingdom second only to the Hou Roaring Heaven Clan Roaring Heaven Clan, and even enjoys greater prestige within their respective domains."

"Among these Gods of the Five Directions, only the Green Wood Clan and the Roaring Heaven Clan have the closest relationship."

"Therefore, if a conflict were to actually occur among the Gods of the Five Directions, the Green Wood Clan would be the most likely to become a staunch ally of the Roaring Heaven Clan."
