Chapter 456

The vast earth.

A scorching sun hangs high, its intense flames like dragons and snakes, devouring everything around.

Crimson light sweeps across, and the world is twisting.

Fierce birds with wingspans of dozens of kilometers, entirely crimson, dance in the scorching sun.

These fierce birds have four wings, their beaks sharp and flashing with cold light.

Their eyes are sharp and golden-yellow, and terrifying golden divine fire erupts for over a hundred kilometers, seemingly even more terrifying than the fire of the sun.

Rolling vitality surges into the heavens.

Directly condensing into giants seven or eight kilometers tall on their backs.

These giants wear crimson battle armor, hold crimson long spears, and are cold and ruthless.

They stand on the backs of the crimson fierce birds, looking like a knight and their mount.

But in reality—

They and the fierce birds they sit upon are the same life form.

"This is..."

Li Li Li Yue twitches his brows, standing on the earth, looking at the crimson fierce birds and knights dancing in the scorching sun, feeling somewhat puzzled.

These—

What kind of creatures are they?

Why has he never heard of them?

Although he does not know what these creatures are.

But—

To be able to become the guardians of the ninth level of the Path of the True God, it is highly likely—

That they are terrifying creatures comparable to Golden Behemoths, or even more terrifying than Golden Behemoths!

At the same time.

He can also feel.

The astonishing baleful aura and divine might rolling down from above the scorching sun.

The cultivation of these strange creatures is naturally at the Nine-Turn Golden Demigod realm.

Which is a peak demigod.

But the strength of their aura—

Is extremely terrifying, far exceeding that of a peak demigod!

"After endless years, someone has finally arrived here."

"You are the first person of this Source Era..."

A faint sigh suddenly comes down from the scorching sun above.

It is a strange creature flying out from the center of the scorching sun; he looks at Li Li Li Yue and grins:

"You can be proud."

Li Li Li Yue narrows his eyes.

Source Era?

What is this?

Could it be another name for an epoch?

But that is not right...

Based on what he knows.

From ancient times to the present, there have been seven epochs, and he should be the first to reach this level.

With thoughts turning in his mind, he speaks directly:

"I do not know what a Source Era is?"

"Additionally—"

"Which race do you belong to, may I ask?"

Above the scorching sun.

The strange creature smiles, and the giant fierce bird beneath his feet also seems to reveal a hint of a smile:

"A Source Era—"

"Is a destruction and rebirth of the Endless Void."

"Within each Source Era, there are further divisions of epochs..."

"As for my race—"

Speaking of this, the strange creature pauses, his face seemingly revealing a hint of complexity:

"My race does not belong to this Source Era; it has long since perished..."

Li Li Li Yue hears this.

And is immediately shaken.

A destruction and rebirth of the Endless Void?!

A Source Era contains several epochs?!

He takes a deep breath.

This information is too astonishing.

The span of an epoch is, in his eyes, an unimaginably terrifying amount of time.

In this current epoch.

From the beginning until now, he has no idea how much time has passed.

But he knows—

In this epoch, dozens of main gods have already been born!

And the main god born before the Main God of Fate—

Was over four hundred million years ago!

From this, one can see.

How terrifying the span of an epoch is; it is simply tens of billions of years long.

For someone who has been a True God for only a few decades, even adding the thousand-plus years accelerated by [Demon Crystals]—

Compared to an epoch, it is still as fleeting as an epiphyllum.

And now—

He suddenly hears.

It turns out that an epoch is not the longest unit of time?!

Above an epoch.

There is a Source Era?!

He simply cannot imagine what kind of terrifying, frightening span of time that must be!

And extending from this—

Is a sense of horror.

It is too long.

It is too terrifying.

By comparison—

What the other party said, that they are creatures from the previous Source Era, is not such a big deal after all.

Of course.

This also explains quite a few things.

For example—

The existence time of the City of Gods, the existence time of the Path of the True God, etc.

"The world is vast, and time is endless..."

He murmurs softly, slowly calming down.

No matter how long time is, so what?

It is not possible—

That there are some old monsters who have lived from the previous Source Era to this one, right?

"Come."

"Launch your attack."

"Let me see what kind of lineup the believers under you, the first person of this Source Era, have."

"To be able to pass the Golden Behemoth level, I imagine you have one or two True God-level believers..."

Above the firmament, in the scorching sun.

The strange creature looks down.

As his voice falls.

A full hundred strange creatures identical to him fly out from the scorching sun...

Terrifying divine might surges into the sky.

Scorching divine fire sweeps across, as if to burn everything!

"As you wish..."

Li Li Li Yue nods gently, a strange smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.

One or two True God-level believers?

It seems—

In the eyes of this guardian who may have existed since the previous Source Era.

For a low-rank True God to have one or two True God-level believers—

Is an extremely remarkable thing, worthy of the title of the first person of a Source Era.

But—

The True God-level believers under his command are dozens of times that number!

Boom!

As his thoughts move.

Immediately.

On the earth, terrifying divine might of True God level surges into the sky.

Although several True God-level believers remain in the blood-colored space to hold the line.

And several others have been dispatched to aid his subordinate gods.

But—

The number of True God-level believers he can mobilize is still an astonishing amount.

Dozens of True God divine auras surge into the heavens.

That powerful momentum makes the world lose its color in an instant.

The vast scorching sun.

Seems to dim slightly at this moment!

Those giants stepping on crimson fierce birds are completely stunned on the spot.

This...

How is this possible!

A low-rank True God—

Actually possesses dozens of low-rank True God-level believers!

This is simply a fantasy.

Even though they have guarded the Path of the True God for endless years.

And have seen the first persons of other Source Eras.

Yet—
