Swallowing the Stars: Starting with the Giant of Light

Page 502

Keep in mind that this was a huge loss for them, given that they had the overwhelming numbers and yet the other side still managed to take one of their players away.

"If only I had been more careful."

The Origin God felt somewhat guilty, realizing that he had underestimated a top-tier God-King and had been ambushed by him, losing a leader.

"The origin, it's not your fault."

Other leaders offered words of comfort, saying that while they were well prepared, they were also prepared for the possibility of sacrifice.

At least for now, the losses are still within their tolerance range.

"However, I'm a little worried about the second one. When he went to chase Tai'an, he encountered a mysterious person, and then they entered a secret realm of rules together, where they even encountered a world beast."

The Fourth Leader frowned and said, "I have a feeling there's something wrong with this, like there's some kind of conspiracy hidden."

"I think so!"

The Origin God nodded in agreement, indicating that their war had also fallen into the schemes of many forces.

He had originally planned to send someone to support the Second Leader, but after entering the dimensional labyrinth and discovering the World Beast, the Second Leader sent a message back saying that he didn't need to worry about him for the time being and that he should deal with the matters of the Origin Continent first.

After all, once they ventured deep into the dimensional labyrinth, even if the Origin God and others wanted to provide support, it would be very difficult; at most, they could only defend from the outside.

Furthermore, the current second leader is still investigating the situation, so there is no rush.

Conversely, the situation on the Origin Continent is more dangerous.

The war is far from over, even though the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom has only been destroyed.

"origin!"

Just then, a roar that resounded through the void rang out, and a series of extremely sharp feathers flew out instantly, aiming at the God-King of the Origin Clan present.

Upon seeing this, the Origin God also made a move instantly, his figure becoming incredibly tall, and the dragon-headed staff in his hand slammed upwards, blocking all the feathers.

Then, a man with pure white wings on his back descended before the crowd with a furious expression.

Behind the winged man were two other figures with equally impressive auras, glaring angrily at the group.

"King Yu!"

The Origin God looked at the newcomer with apprehension; the support from the Three Thousand Dimensions lineage was incredibly swift.

Their actions could almost be described as instantly killing a god-king, but the opponent still arrived in a short time.

"Fortunately, we swiftly destroyed the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom; otherwise, if we had been delayed even slightly, we would have been doomed to defeat," the Origin God Venerable thought to himself.

If they hadn't taken advantage of their carelessness, preemptively killed the Tai Shu God King, cooperated with the Realm Beast to block the surrounding God Kings, and then used all their strength to kill Tai Xuan.

If any link in the chain goes wrong, the Origin Clan will be pushed back to the land of suffering, forced to return to their original lives, or even worse.

There's no other reason than that the Three Thousand Dimensions lineage is simply too powerful.

The Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom alone has three Divine Kings, and Tai Xuan is the top among them, no less than him.

Moreover, there are quite a few divine kingdoms bordering the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom, so they can easily spare a few more.

The fact that the Feather King and the two God Kings have now come to support them is equivalent to a complete Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom.

Especially the Feather King, whose strength is also among the top of the God Kings, no less than his and Tai Xuan's.

Even so, it's still within a short period of time that reinforcements can arrive.

If they don't take down the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom first, the eight leaders of the Origin Clan will have to face an attack from more than ten God Kings.

And that doesn't even include those who were too lazy to come and help, or those who didn't care about the Origin Clan at all.

For example, the incredibly powerful Tianmu Kingdom doesn't care about the outside world at all, and the Food Kingdom, which is located on the other side of the Origin Continent and also has three God-Kings, doesn't pay attention to them either...

In fact, the number of God-Kings who died in the internal strife within the Three Thousand Dimensions lineage exceeds the current number of God-Kings of the Origin Clan.

Such a huge gap in strength meant that the Origin God never even considered launching a counterattack against the entire continent.

"Origin, you've gone too far."

King Yu said coldly, "The Origin Clan wiped out the entire Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom, which has crossed the bottom line of many God Kings and is completely intolerable."

Although the Origin Clan still has six God-Kings at this moment, the Feather King is not afraid either, because he is only one of the first to arrive to provide support.

Unlike the destruction caused by the clash of divine kingdoms, due to historical factors, many god-kings also despise and look down on the Origin Race, but are very willing to help.

Even if they cannot unite against a common enemy, just a small number of the God-Kings could be sent to help, enough to crush the entire Origin Clan.

This made the Origin God very uncomfortable, because he couldn't change everyone's mindset.

As long as one god-king dislikes the Origin Clan, through communication and exchange, they can gather a group of people willing to help.

“King Yu, this should have belonged to us in the first place; you are the invaders.”

The Origin God roared in anger, and the five leaders behind him glared back at him with equal fury; a battle was about to erupt.

"The virtuous shall occupy this place..."

Feather King did not dwell on this issue. He spread his wings, which almost covered the entire sky, and attacked the Origin God directly.

"Don't do anything!"

The Origin God shouted to those behind him, then stepped forward, holding a dragon-headed cane, and directly met the wings above.

In an instant, the two god-kings engaged in a fierce battle in the void, causing the god-kings watching from the sidelines to turn their heads in surprise.

"So strong!"

Both God-Kings spoke at the same time. Unlike before when they overwhelmed Tai Xuan God-King with sheer numbers, this time it was the two top God-Kings giving their all, making it even more eye-catching.

Although Origin and Feather King were fighting, the other God Kings below did not make a move, but simply stared intently at each other.

The Origin side naturally believed in the Origin God, while the other two God Kings were waiting for reinforcements. Now, with two against five, they were not really willing to take action; they would at least wait for the other God Kings to arrive.

"Origin, I really underestimated you. You've been hiding for so long."

During the exchange, Yu Wang felt the power his opponent unleashed and couldn't help but frown.

Strength can earn respect, even if that strength comes from an enemy.

Seeing the terrifying power unleashed by the entire Origin Clan, Feather King instantly understood why things had turned out this way: their treatment did not match their strength.

"King Yu, we are not your enemy."

Having demonstrated sufficient strength and shown his opponents the price they would have to pay to defeat them, the Origin God's expression softened, and his movements slowed down considerably.

"enemy!"

The Feather King's expression remained unchanged, but he also held back some of his strength in his hand movements.

Anger is anger, but to say that they would risk their lives to avenge the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom would be asking too much of Yu Wang and his men.

Neither the Feather King nor the other two God-Kings who arrived intended to fight to the death. Instead, they waited for the other God-Kings to arrive and provide support, hoping to defeat the opponent with their absolute advantage.

"A World Beast, and a World Beast at its peak!"

The Origin God made no attempt to conceal anything and directly revealed the information about the World Beast.

"Also cooperating with us to destroy the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom are the legendary Beasts of the Realm. They are currently blocking our way, and the God King of the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom is also on his way to support us."

"Origin, you actually cooperated with the World Beasts. You should have been wiped out long ago."

The Feather King roared instantly. Although many God-Kings had not witnessed the harm caused by the Beasts of the Realm, they could understand from history that they were absolutely the natural enemy of all life.

Meanwhile, the Origin God breathed a sigh of relief as the Feather King's attack stopped.

The best way to cover up a contradiction is to create an even bigger one.

There is no solution to open schemes; the solution lies not in the schemes themselves, but in human nature.

These people wouldn't risk their lives for someone they only have a decent relationship with.

Since the Tai Xuan God King and the others are already dead, unless they truly pose a threat to us, the other God Kings will at most take some action.

This is a calculated move that exploits human weaknesses. However, when faced with a common crisis or for the sake of the future, some people are willing to set aside hatred and interests and choose to cooperate.

Under the threat of the peak world beasts, the conflict between the Origin Clan and the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom was instantly suppressed.

Because the peak-level world beasts are facing a catastrophe for the entire Origin Continent, neither side is an exception.

"It was our mistake to cooperate with the World Beasts. Therefore, my Origin Clan will take the initiative to fight against the World Beasts this time, but I hope to get your help."

"The Origin God said sincerely."

Chapter 501 The troops are divided into two groups

"World beast!"

The Feather King stopped attacking. The Origin God was very powerful, and he wouldn't gain any advantage in the fight.

Therefore, King Yu had to seriously consider the words of the Origin God.

It must be said that the conditions offered by the Origin God were very realistic.

If peak-level world beasts truly exist, then it would indeed be a catastrophe for the entire Origin Continent, affecting an area even wider than the Origin Clan itself.

After all, the competition between the Origin Clan and them was merely a competition for survival, but the World Beasts were aiming to destroy everything and wouldn't care about anything.

As for the Origin God lying, that's unlikely, because it wouldn't solve the problem.

“Origin, you planned this very well; you outsmarted everyone,” Yu Wang said calmly.

"Everything for the sake of the people!"

Even the Origin God had to admit that the timing of the appearance of the World Beast was perfect.

Without the appearance of the Beast of the Realm, the Origin Clan would have had to pay an even heavier price to conquer the Tai Xuan Divine Kingdom.

Not to mention the subsequent confrontation with the God King of the Three Thousand Dimensions lineage, where they had to show a desperate, suicidal fighting style to make the other side understand the price to pay to defeat them in order to withstand the pressure and protect the territory they had conquered.

At that time, it won't be as simple as the death of a god-king leader; nearly half of the god-kings will likely be at risk of perishing.

The struggle for racial survival is that brutal; everyone is gambling for a future.

Fortunately, the appearance of the Beast of the Realm not only relieved the pressure of external support, but also allowed them to easily defeat the entire Tai Xuan God King.

It even minimized the impact of the expansion of the Origin Clan.

Compared to the cataclysmic destruction of the Beast Realm, the expansion of the Origin Clan is still within acceptable limits.
