Therefore, Zhiyan always believed that this was just a fleeting romance.
It wasn't until more than a month later, when she felt unwell, that she realized she was pregnant.
Although she didn't have much affection for the Western God King, the child was innocent after all, so after hesitating for a long time, Zhiyan finally decided to give birth to the child and raise it herself.
After learning about this, the Western God King did not demand the child, but instead sent a powerful "Boundless Divine Crystal" that contained his aura.
According to him, this "Boundless Divine Crystal" contains a powerful "pseudo-divine skill" that can lay a foundation for children.
—That is, Li Feng's powerful cataclysmic ability, "Iron Army of Life"!
She can train her own unique "Iron Ladies Army." Not only can she share life with these women, but she can also combine their power to reach unprecedented levels of strength.
Over the years, it has been through Li Feng that the Second Sanctuary has been able to navigate between the Western God King and the "Mist Society" while also helping humanity.
In order to allow humanity to establish itself, Heavenly King Zhiyan even sent Li Feng to the edge of the region to stabilize the situation.
—The evil gods might target powerful human beings, but they would never dare to target Li Feng.
Therefore, it can be said that Li Feng deserves great credit for the fact that the human camp has been able to hold out for decades and achieve the current favorable situation.
Although Heavenly King Zhiyan does not love the "Western God King", humanity has received some care from the "Western God King" over the years thanks to Li Feng.
Coupled with humanity's basic ethics and morals, seeing Li Feng rejoicing over the death of the "Western God King," she had only one thought: filial piety is dead...
However, she had kept Li Feng's background a secret all these years, and it was inconvenient for her to speak about it now, so she could only keep all her worries to herself.
After listening to Li Feng's explanation, Heavenly King Zhiyan slowly came back to her senses.
She gave Li Feng a complicated look, then said, "Qiu Tu is now the leader of the human camp, and the Second Shelter should indeed obey him."
"However, I still need to talk to the other Heavenly Kings and see their attitude."
"The same applies to unifying the 'Western Kingdoms'."
"I agree to the plan in principle, but I still need to discuss it with the other Heavenly Kings."
Although Li Feng was anxious, she knew this was a big deal. So she could only nod and agree.
The two were mother and daughter, so they looked extremely alike. In addition, they were both high-level Cataclysmics with the ability to preserve their youth, so they looked like sisters.
However, Li Feng's temperament is more unrestrained and fiery, while Zhi Yan Tian Wang is more gentle and mature.
After chatting in the room for a while, Li Feng got up and left her mother.
After sending Li Feng away, Heavenly King Zhiyan did not immediately contact the other Heavenly Kings.
She walked to the bedside, her mature and beautiful face expressionless. Her hands were behind her back, her gaze dark, the image of Qiu Tu appearing before her eyes intermittently, followed by that of the Western God King.
After a moment, as if she had thought of something, she gently grabbed it, and the next second, a tinderbox that looked a bit old-fashioned and was carved with various gorgeous patterns appeared in her hand.
She picked up the tinderbox, glanced at it, and opened the lid.
The tinderbox contained a spark of fire. Her eyes flickered slightly, and then she gently blew on the fire.
The next second, a flame burst from the tinderbox, illuminating the room.
Within that ball of flame, a figure could be seen appearing and disappearing, as if it might emerge from the flame at any moment.
Looking at the figure within the flames, Zhiyan's previously expressionless face slowly revealed a hint of surprise.
This "tinderbox" was left to her by the Western God King. Its function is simple yet powerful: it allows her to have a direct soul conversation with the Western God King, regardless of distance or barriers.
It can be said that as long as the Western God King is alive, Zhiyan can communicate with him directly and without any obstacles.
But the problem is... the Western God King has fallen! Why can this tinderbox still be lit? And why is there a picture of the Western God King on it?
Thinking this, Zhiyan's eyes kept flashing, and a bold idea was born in her mind.
'Could it be... that the Western God King is not dead?'
'This...how is this possible?'
For a moment, even Heavenly King Zhiyan's brows furrowed deeply...
......
Meanwhile, in the western land, in the Mandala Sand Sea.
A giant tortoise, as large as a mountain, lay on the ground covered in blood.
If Zhao Ji were here now, she would realize that this is the "Tongtianzhe" she used to buy information with the limbs of an eighth-order evil god.
At this moment, Apocalypse... or rather, the Western God King was standing on the head of this giant tortoise "Tongtianzhe," with his arms outstretched, eyes closed, absorbing His power with ecstasy.
As a massive amount of pure cataclysmic power entered his body, the aura emanating from the Western God King grew stronger and stronger...
After absorbing the giant tortoise "Tongtianzhe" for several hours, the Western God King waved his hand, and the corpse of "Tongtianzhe" was instantly torn to pieces, even the tortoise shell was cracked into pieces.
Upon seeing this, the Western God King smiled and began to set up a ritual using the corpse of this "Heavenly Being".
And so it went on for who knows how long. Until evening, as the false sun slowly set behind the mountains, a violent spatial fluctuation occurred, and the catastrophic power surrounding the Mandala Sand Sea suddenly boiled over, like a drop of water being poured into a pot of boiling oil.
A massive amount of cataclysmic power began to surge wildly around the Mandala Sand Sea, and towering yellow sand began to spread around it.
Amidst that apocalyptic scene, the middle of the Mandala Sand Sea suddenly began to cave inward. In just a moment, it formed a crater the size of a playground.
A massive amount of yellow sand flowed down the edge of the pit, seemingly without end.
The "World Gateway"... has been opened!
Upon seeing this, the Western God King couldn't help but reveal a sinister smile.
Over the past few centuries, the four great god-kings have actually discovered the drawbacks of the false god-king and have been searching for their own paths.
Aside from the fact that the Northern God King was too weak and his energy was being diverted by Doris, leaving him no time to make the final preparations.
Whether it's the Southern God King (in white), Takikawa Ei, or the Western God King, they have all made some progress.
The one in white is "reincarnated and reborn," retracing the path of the God King; the one in Takikawa Akira is the "Way of All Things," transforming into countless forms and then gathering sand into a tower; while the Western God King is... the Way of Erosion.
He always believed that killing one person made one a thief, killing ten made one a bandit, and killing ten thousand made one a lord. The reason their false god-kings were false god-kings was because they didn't control enough territory!
If he could devour the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" and then invade the "Battlefield of Gods," bringing the entire "Battlefield of Gods" under his control, wouldn't he be an existence even more powerful than the God King?
It is precisely because he chose this path that the Western God King has been constantly sowing discord among the various God Kings, and... secretly trying to restore the "World Passage".
Over the years, he had already gathered resources and made preparations, waiting for the day when he could control the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" and reopen the "World Passage".
Unexpectedly, he didn't get to control the "Boundless Sea of the Heart," but instead faced his own demise and the need to be lured to another place...
Regardless, at least all the preparations he made over the years have come in handy.
Thinking this, the Western God King glanced at the gradually recovering "World Passage" and then prepared to leave this place of trouble.
Just as he was about to leave, suddenly... several notes floated up from the passageway.
The Western God King frowned.
Over the years, he has inspected the "World Passage" many times but has never seen the note. Therefore, these notes are most likely items from the other side of the fist-sized "World Passage" that has just been reopened.
'Could it be... someone is waiting near the "World Passage"? Did they see it form and contact us immediately?'
Thinking this, he waved his hand, and the slips of paper flew into his hand.
He picked up the slips of paper, glanced at them, and his brow furrowed sharply. All the slips of paper contained the same thing written in scribbled handwriting:
"Don't come back! Don't come back! Run! Run!"
The notes were almost all similar, containing no information other than warnings....
The Western God King held the slips of paper in his hand, then looked up at the "World Passage" that was slowly rotating and gradually expanding within the "Sea of Mandala Sands," his brows furrowing deeply...
.......
Time always seems to fly by when you're busy.
With the end of the "Trial of the Gods" and the fall of the three God Kings, the entire "Boundless Heart Sea" has been undergoing a major reshuffle these past few days.
Of the six quasi-gods, only Qiu Tu was still waiting; the other five immediately went into hiding and then advanced to godhood.
Qiu Tu wasn't idle either; he immediately began his plan to annex the entire "Boundless Heart Sea".
Because of a promise made to Baiyi, Qiu Tu did not take action against the "Southern Kingdom" but instead began to take action against the three major kingdoms of the East, West, and North.
Manhuang and Shuxia returned to the "Northern Kingdom" and, in the names of "Northern God King" and Qiu Tu, took control of the "Siyuan Pavilion" again.
Because both of them were close relatives of the old pavilion master and had a certain prestige, and because they were both at the late stage of the eighth rank, they easily regained the power that belonged to them.
Relying on the enormous influence of "Siyuan Pavilion" in the "Northern Kingdom", the two also began to negotiate with various forces according to Qiu Tu's plan, persuading them to surrender to Qiu Tu.
With the fall of the Northern God King, the various factions in the Northern Kingdom were already searching for a way out.
Now that they had the "Siyuan Pavilion" as a channel and the "last will" left by the Northern God King, they agreed to surrender with almost no psychological pressure.
Of course, there were also some die-hards who were stubborn and refused to listen, believing that this was a betrayal.
At this moment, at the Emperor's prompting, Shu Xia will also demonstrate his strength as a late-stage eighth-tier Great Evil God, letting those stubborn elements know that the two are not there to reason with him, but to deliver orders...
Compared to the rapid progress of Manhuang and Shuxia, Lifeng and Xiwangfei's progress in the Western Kingdom is somewhat slower.
Although the Second Sanctuary ultimately agreed to join the "Human Alliance" after weighing the pros and cons.
However... compared to the enormous influence of "Siyuan Pavilion" in the "Northern Kingdom", the Second Sanctuary has far less influence in the "Western Kingdom".
Not to mention the "Western Kingdom", even the high-ranking members of the "Mist Hidden Society" didn't really care about the Second Sanctuary.
In addition, the Second Shelter was not as strong as the high-ranking members of the "Mist Society," so the entire plan did not proceed smoothly.
After discussing it, Li Feng, Zhi Yan, and Princess Xi decided to bypass the "Mist Hidden Society" and directly use Qiu Tu's name to gather people, merge forces, and grow stronger in the "Western Kingdom".
Once their own strength has increased, they can then try to bring the "Hidden Mist Society" under their control...
Even with the help of the Second Sanctuary, the war situation in the Western Kingdom was still so difficult, let alone Tang Feifei, Yu Die, and Guan Xiao's plans against the Eastern Kingdom.
As the leader of the four great divine kingdoms, the Eastern Kingdom can be said to be the most superior and powerful nation in the entire "Boundless Heart Sea".
Therefore, although the Eastern God King has fallen, they are still waiting for the right price to go. Furthermore, there is a tendency for them to band together.
This also led to Yu Die and Guan Xiao encountering very difficulties in their intelligence work.
However, Qiu Tu had almost anticipated these difficulties and was not worried at all.
The wheels of time keep rolling forward, and all those who stand in the way will only be crushed.
The "Trial of the Gods" has just ended, new gods have not yet been born, and all factions are still determined to succeed. Once the new gods are born, they will find they have no other choice...
And just like that, seven days passed in the blink of an eye...
Nine days after the end of the "Trial of the Gods", in the Northwest Region - Burial Dragon City, there is a hidden area filled with various formations.
Princess Zhao was sitting there cross-legged.
In front of her was a "Boundless Divine Crystal" formed from a clone of "Takikawa Akira".
With each breath she took, surging cataclysmic power was drawn from those "Boundless Divine Crystals" and entered her body.
Meanwhile, the "catastrophe power" spilling from the battle between the six celestial-level experts was continuously drawn into her body from the outside.
As a massive amount of "catastrophic power" was absorbed by Zhao Ji, a seven-colored mark on Zhao Ji's forehead began to flash continuously.
Clearly... that was the divine mark that Zephyr had absorbed.
I don't know how much time passed like that.
She didn't open her eyes until the sun rose and the first rays of sunlight fell on her.
The next second, her aura began to surge wildly.
Celestial God, Primary Celestial God, Intermediate Celestial God, Advanced Celestial God!
Before long, Zhao Ji's aura shot straight into the sky like a pillar of light! It was as if she was announcing to the world that she had been deified!
Just then, suddenly, another beam of light shot out from the side, soaring straight into the sky!
Judging from the close distance between Qinglan and Zhaoji, and the lingering aura on the pillar of light, it was clear that Qinglan had also successfully advanced.
With 90% of Zhao Ji's talent and Qiu Tu's resource support, it's perfectly reasonable that she was able to become the second Celestial God.
However, while Zhao Ji and Qing Lan are highly talented, the others are also quite talented.
These two beams of light were like the sounding of a battle horn. Over the next day, three more beams of light shot into the sky!
There's the Southwest Region, the Southern Kingdom, and the Crimson Territory. Clearly, like Zhao Ji and Qing Lan, all the quasi-gods actually have ample resources to strive for higher positions.
Meanwhile, upon learning that Zhao Ji and Qing Lan had finally broken through to the "Celestial God Realm," Qiu Tu immediately drove to Zanglong City.
As the last quasi-god to ascend to godhood, Qiu Tu had many questions he wanted to ask them. These included questions about Zhao Ji's past misguided path to godhood...
