Chapter 1415

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng and the others were all moved.

Is the Ancient God King still alive?

Are they still hunting God Kings?

That's an expert from the Ancestor God Realm!

A God King has virtually no resistance whatsoever, akin to a Golden Immortal bullying a Heavenly Immortal; only someone like the peerless prodigy Xun Shuang Xianzi could possibly challenge across realms, otherwise such cross-realm challenges don't exist.

If the Ancient God King is still alive, a newly ascended God King simply couldn't stand against him.

But... why?

Xiao Feng asked, bewildered: "If the Ancient God King isn't dead, why doesn't he just overthrow all the God Kingdoms and restore the Elemental God Realm under Ancient God's rule?"

This is also what the other guests wanted to ask.

Mo explained: "The Ancient God King may not be dead, but back then the experts of all races fought desperately, surely severely injuring him and nearly causing his demise. Over the past tens of thousands of years, he should have been recuperating, gradually healing himself by devouring the lives of God King-level experts. If he were too conspicuous and got ganged up on, it would be very dangerous. For now he remains in hiding; once he fully recovers, he will surely return, and when he does, the catastrophe of widespread suffering will be unavoidable."

That's quite heavy.

Ancestor God-level experts, relying on the Elemental God Realm's current overt NPC power, have virtually no chance of winning; even the combined strength of 23 monarchs wouldn't match a single finger of theirs.

Even adding players would be pointless; a numerical advantage would be useless against such a huge level gap.

Only someone like Xiao Feng, a special individual, would have a chance to arm-wrestle the Ancient God King.

But even Xiao Feng wouldn't dare guarantee victory.

After all, Ancestor Gods vary in strength; levels 1500 and 2000 are entirely different. Without knowing the Ancient God King's exact strength, blind confidence is unacceptable.

The Ancient God King is not dead; it's not just my imagination, but also some information inadvertently revealed by Akanuoshu's various actions.

Mo continued speaking, explaining the reasons for his speculation.

"Dragon Sovereign?" Xiao Feng frowned.

Mo nodded and said: "Although Akanuoshu did not directly participate in that battle, he had already been born then and surely heard from his father Luo Sa about his grandfather—Dragon Emperor Akanuoshu's deeds."

Dragon Sovereign Akanuoshu and Dragon Emperor Akanuoshu share the same name, but they are two entirely different beings. The former is the ruler of the Dragon Blood Divine Kingdom slain by Xiao Feng, and also the nephew of the divinely brave dragon "Double-headed Lujia", and the son of Luo Sa.

And Dragon Emperor Akanuoshu was the paternal grandfather of the Dragon Sovereign, one of the strong ones who participated in the siege and extermination of the Ancient God King, and the sole survivor.

At the time of that battle tens of thousands of years ago, Dragon Sovereign Akanuoshu's strength was merely that of a lower-tier main god realm, unqualified to participate in the siege and extermination of the Ancient God King.

But by then he was already a warrior of the Dragon Clan, and he certainly knew quite a bit.

Mo said: "As the sole survivor of the Ancient God King's extermination war, Dragon Emperor, after returning, told the strong ones of all clans that the Ancient God King was dead and all brave warriors had perished. Afterwards he returned to the Dragon Nest and lay incapacitated, supposedly with wounds that could not be healed. Later, under the escort of his son Luo Sa and many strong ones of the Dragon Clan, he went to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield and never returned."

"There are doubts in this!" Mo emphasized.

"You mean... Dragon Emperor left because of fear?" Xiao Feng sensed some clues.

Mo nodded and said: "The Dragon Clan has always considered itself brave and fearless, but this time Dragon Emperor was surely afraid. As a great meritorious contributor to slaying the Ancient God King, he ought to have enjoyed the treatment of the supreme God King of the Yuan Su Shen Yu, and everyone would have been convinced. Yet he did not enjoy it; in the name of healing his wounds, he led his clansmen away, leaving only a small portion of the Dragon Clan to observe the later situation."

"The Dragon Clan regularly sends main god–level powerhouses to the Myriad Heavens Battlefield, eight or nine times out of ten just to report the situation."

"Dragon Sovereign Akanuoshu has not broken through to the God King Realm for tens of thousands of years; his cultivation has stagnated or even regressed, clearly because he knows the secret and fears that breaking through would make him a target for hunting."

Having said this, the great terror of the Yuan Su Shen Yu is basically clear now.

Xiao Feng frowned slightly: "In that case, we should find a Dragon Clan main god to ask about the situation. However, after I slew the Dragon Sovereign, they basically all withdrew; even ordinary small dragons are hard to find, let alone a main god."

If the Ancient God King still exists, probably only the Dragon Clan knows its whereabouts.

Or... wait for the Ancient God King to fully recover and then emerge.

Mo said: "Sovereign of the Heavenly Dao, your strength is already comparable to a God King, and as an adventurer with an immortal body, you actually have the ability to investigate this matter. Previously I was in the Yuan Su Shen Yu, fearing the Ancient God King might be secretly watching, I dared not speak much. Now that I've met you in this realm, I want to ask you, when you have time, to look into it. If we can eliminate the Ancient God King, that would be best; if not, being able to find out his whereabouts and condition is also good news, at least giving us a baseline to know how to respond."

Xiao Feng nodded: "Hmm, next time I return I'll pay attention; if I can kill a Primordial God-level expert, it would also be quite beneficial for me."

"Right." At that moment he suddenly remembered a question, and asked puzzledly: "Last time we met, you said many Divine Kingdom Hearts are formed from the remains of God King powerhouses; is that related to the Ancient God King?"

Xiao Feng thought this might also be the Ancient God King meddling, shaping Divine Kingdom Hearts and Divine Kingdom continents, nurturing more living beings, wanting to treat the Divine Kingdom as a pasture, raising gods as fodder.

But Mo shook his head: "Probably not related. The more Divine Kingdoms there are, the higher the chance of powerful beings emerging; this is a mixed blessing for the Ancient God King—good because the God Kings he can devour will be born faster, bad because more powerful beings might defeat him again. I think this is the effect of the realm's law, not closely tied to the Ancient God King."

He thought of something similar to what Xiao Feng thought, but his viewpoint differed slightly.

This can be observed from the similar world of the Battle Qi Divine Realm, where the Divine Kingdoms are also gradually increasing, more and more. But here there is no Ancient God King meddling; it's purely natural formation.

"Speaking of... what does the Yuan Su Shen Yu still have that could make the Ancient God King wary? It's been tens of thousands of years; his wounds should have mostly healed by now, right?" Xiao Feng raised a question.

Even if we combined the strength of all experts in the Yuan Su Shen Yu, it's estimated to be not as formidable as a single NPC sect in the Nine Provinces Immortal Realm.

In such a world, what is the Ancient God King afraid of? Even if his wounds aren't fully healed, he could come out and have fun!

A wounded Golden Immortal taking on Spirit Transformation and Tribulation stage cultivators is nothing more than a sneeze, right?

The Grand Arcane Prophet Mo smiled faintly and said with deep meaning: "That's because there are still a few things in the Elemental Sea that he fears."

"Oh? What is it?" Xiao Feng asked.

Mo replied: "One is Mechanism Island, very close to the Storm Divine Kingdom. One is Nine-Colored Island, located farther out in the Elemental Sea. And another is the Primordial God Ruins, drifting without fixed location, the most ancient origin of the Yuan Su Shen Yu."
