The Sovereign of Fengshen chose to forsake part of their interests to suppress the God Weapon within the Eight Heavens. The Sky Lord certainly couldn't tolerate this, nor would they retreat. The best defense is offense; only those daring to unsheathe their swords can achieve the ultimate victory. No matter the obstacles faced, one must possess a fearless heart, crushing every enemy that stands in the way! In an instant, a vast torrent swept toward the Fengshen camp. "You dare to initiate an attack!" The Sovereign of Fengshen shouted fiercely. Meanwhile, in the Ninth Heaven of the Mythical Era, three great powers appeared simultaneously, gazing around and finding that the area lacked the vastness and splendor of the previous eight heavens. Within the Ninth Heaven, there was only silence and void. Yet at the center of the Ninth Heaven, there lay a mythical artifact! "The Mythical Altar!" Chu Yuan looked over, and amidst the mythical aura, there stood a massive altar, shining with mythical brilliance, resplendent and dazzling. On this altar flowed ancient traces, shooting out streams of runes. In the Ninth Heaven, there existed only this one altar, appearing quite peculiar. However, Chu Yuan and the others could discern that this altar was the most precious, possessing immense power. "An altar, perhaps for worshipping the heavens or mortals." Chu Yuan said coldly. These three mighty figures each stood in a corner, glancing at each other before their gaze returned to the altar. They all sensed that within the altar was sealed an extremely terrifying force, coalesced into some form of existence. "Mythical Divine Essence!" They saw a massive glow, a huge crystal in the shape of a diamond, enveloped in boundless splendor, emitting a highly refined aura. They could feel the vast power within the object, exceedingly pure. On this divine essence-like object, each facet reflected mythical waves, the internal aura was colossal. "With the altar gathering unmatched power, it coalesced into a divine essence. If this essence were bestowed upon an individual, it could instantly turn them into a deity, advancing directly to the Origin God realm!" Chu Yuan, the Fengshen Great Emperor, and the Dragon Ancestor immediately perceived the terror of this divine essence. Consider what this means; the arduous journey to become an Origin God, spanning entire eras, is a path few achieve in prolonged times. For figures like the Fengshen Great Emperor or the Dragon Ancestor, their current power was attained through immense hardship and trials before reaching the Origin God state. Yet this divine essence within the altar could enable one to become an Origin God—an astonishing fact. However, that only one divine essence resides within the altar indicates its difficulty in forming—left as the highest treasure by the Mythical Ancient Sovereign. In the current situation, if either faction could gain another Origin God, it would almost secure a definitive victory against which no force could stand. "The power of the Mythical Era, the strongest sweeping the universe, leaving a divine essence that could directly break through to Origin God." The Fengshen Great Emperor spoke calmly: "Yet everything has its pros and cons; this essence contains the imprints of the Mythical Era's laws and power essence. Achieving a deity status this way results in a weaker form, lacking innate dominance!" If he were the Fengshen Great Emperor, even at the sixth realm, he wouldn't desire using a divine essence to achieve Origin God. Of course, not everyone shares the Fengshen Great Emperor's view. Ultimately, the pursuit of deity status is a lifelong goal for countless individuals. Even so, the stored power within this essence is immense. Without seeking the mythical law, one could solely absorb its power essence, refining it into oneself, virtually attaining the peak of the Origin. Boom! Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn novel•fire.net Suddenly, the Dragon Ancestor acted, extending dragon claws over the massive altar, causing ripples through the void, as his will dominated the heavens, attempting to seize the altar instantly. Having just broken through to Origin God, he required vast essence to replenish himself. Chu Yuan and the Fengshen Great Emperor naturally wouldn't sit idly as the Dragon Ancestor attempted to seize it. In the current scenario, everyone was an enemy; no one was a friend. As Chu Yuan stepped forward, a black hole appeared instantly before him against the Dragon Ancestor. He struck with a palm cut, possessing heaven-opening Divine Power. The Dragon Ancestor lifted his dragon claw, colliding with Chu Yuan's palm, instantly causing a hurricane to howl and sending unmatched ripples outward. In that instant of clash, the Dragon Ancestor felt as if his dragon form was about to break. "Such power without reaching Origin!" The Dragon Ancestor's dragon eyes shot beams, with burning dragon fire rising, igniting the origin of dragons. As a newly formed Origin God, he refused to be suppressed by Chu Yuan. His dragon energy surged, spitting out a boundless and domineering Dragon Breath, overwhelming everything, charging directly toward Chu Yuan. Raising his own power, Chu Yuan disregarded the Dragon Ancestor's strength. Even an Origin God would be crushed by absolute power, his eyes emitted divine light, raising a palm toward the heavens. His form was immensely majestic, leaving the Dragon Ancestor's power ineffective before him. He was like a god of dragon slaying, challenging the heavens alone. The Fengshen Great Emperor's gaze pierced through, vast and boundless, truly interested in the divine essence. If taken back to his empire, it could enable the Fengshen Sovereign to become an Origin God. The Fengshen Great Emperor's massive hand targeted the divine essence, reaching to cover it. Chu Yuan and the Dragon Ancestor, originally locked in combat, instantly redirected their power toward the Fengshen Great Emperor. The Fengshen Great Emperor's power instantly crumbled. Energy exploded as the three great powers once again stood separate; this wave ended with no one gaining an advantage. A standoff among three powers emerged, each desiring to monopolize the mythical altar, yet unable to do so. If it were only two powers, they could focus all their strength on destroying one. But the presence of a third forced preservation of power, preventing others from reaping the benefits. The Dragon Ancestor's gaze flickered as he eyed Chu Yuan, then the Fengshen Great Emperor. He contemplated an alliance with the Fengshen Great Emperor against Chu Yuan, willing to use any means necessary, indifferent to scruples. Yet he also understood the Fengshen Great Emperor might not agree to such a union. Ultimately, it came down to mistrust. Indeed, there was neither trust nor mistrust between them. "It seems none of us will monopolize the divine essence." The Dragon Ancestor coldly observed. Chu Yuan ignored him, stepping skyward as a black hole unleashed swallowing will, descending upon the altar with unmatchable force. "Since no one can obtain it, then destroy it!" The Fengshen Great Emperor decided decisively. He focused on Chu Yuan, realizing full well that despite the Dragon Ancestor being an Origin God, this emperor was his greatest rival, observing the all-consuming black hole energy. He couldn't fathom what cards the emperor might still hold. If he possessed unknown capabilities, mysteriously snatching away the altar, allowing his empire to produce another Origin God, it would be disastrous for him. Striking now wasn't to seize the altar but to destroy it. Better to destroy than let one person take it! Pervasive destructive power, three strands of Divine Power, at that moment struck the mythical altar!
