Chapter 2319: Path Taking
"After the Primordial War, most of the Primordial Gods successfully passed down their legacy. However, the God of Mortals, lurking in the dark, seized the opportunity when the God of Time weakened to eliminate him and usurp his power," Shan Que added.
"Although he didn't die, he was severely injured. Moreover, the God of Mortals couldn't completely refine the power and could only utilize a portion of it. Later, he passed it down to his successor, Fan Shen, and this person became the leader of the so-called Primordial God Tribe. His goal is simple: he wants to control the entire Primal Chaos," Tian He elaborated. Yun Lintian and the others were shocked upon hearing this. They finally understood who their enemy was. No one could have imagined it was the God of Mortals, the one everyone believed had died at the very beginning of the war. More precisely, it was the first generation inheritor of the God of Mortals.
"Every generation of the Primordial Gods' inheritors would either oppose or join his side. However, none of them met a good ending. The God of Mortals is very ambitious. He wants to integrate all of the Primordial Gods' powers and become a new Creator himself," Tian He said with a solemn expression.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"The only exception among us is the God of Fate's inheritor, Yun Tian. And he has always been heavily targeted by the God of Mortals. From what we've seen so far, the God of Mortals was afraid of him. Despite all the power in his hand, he was unable to take over the Primal Chaos because of Yun Tian."
Tian He paused for a moment and took a deep look at Yun Lintian. "At first, I couldn't understand Yun Tian's intentions. He always avoided direct confrontation but also made a lot of arrangements. When I first saw you, I immediately understood everything. Everything Yun Tian did was for you."
"However," Tian He sighed softly. "He might have miscalculated. You turned out to be a kindhearted young man who had no ambition. That was why I tried to make you change your mind when we first met."
Yun Lintian furrowed his brow. He had finally connected all the dots. The mastermind behind the grand conspiracy was actually the one he overlooked all this time. It wasn't the Chasm of Uncreation but the God of Mortals.
"You've changed now," Shan Que took a deep look at Yun Lintian. "I don't know what you've experienced during this period, but I can see something inside your body has changed."
"Indeed," Tian He nodded slightly. "I can feel that you have become a different person. Not just your aura, but something deep down in your heart."
As True Gods, Tian He and Shan Que were extremely sensitive to even minor changes in one's temperament. Yun Lintian right now was an entirely different person compared to his past self in the last few months.
At the same time, they were curious what truly changed him. It was certainly not because of his improved strength.
Hearing this, Yun Lintian looked at his women in doubt. He himself had no idea that he had changed.
"Yes. You look a bit more... confident," Lin Xinyao confirmed.
"Really? That's strange," Yun Lintian was puzzled and rechecked himself.
"Perhaps it's related to the power of time," Shan Que speculated. "Have you experienced a dream or something?"
"A dream?" Yun Lintian shook his head. "No. I felt that I had a long sleep. That's all."
Tian He and Shan Que exchanged doubtful glances.
"His soul has become stronger," Lan Qinghe, who was silent all this time, spoke up. "This kind of change can only happen when a person goes through a certain experience."
Shan Que nodded in agreement. That was why he asked the question in the first place.
"Let's not talk about this," Yun Lintian changed the topic. "So, what should we do now, Seniors?"
"My suggestion is to find the other inheritors and work together. At least, we need to prevent them from falling into the God of Mortals' hands again," Tian He said.
"I'm curious. With his strength, it should be easy for him to find them, right?" Yun Lintian couldn't judge Fan Ren's true strength at the moment.
Tian He shook his head and said, "You've underestimated the Primordial Gods' inheritors. None of them are ordinary. Even if the God of Mortals is powerful, it's not necessarily easy for him to locate them. Moreover, it's not the right time."
"Not the right time?" Yun Lintian asked in doubt.
"Yes," Tian He nodded heavily. "In the past, he always waited for all the inheritors to step into the True God Realm first before hunting them. It's the time when the Primordial Gods' powers begin to awaken. Otherwise, it will be useless."
He let out a long sigh and said, "Unfortunately, everyone has their selfish motives. It's almost impossible for them to unite and fight against the God of Mortals."
Tian He and Shan Que were the inheritors of the River God and the Mountain God, respectively. Both of them had experienced firsthand how difficult it was for the inheritors to work together. Since everyone had the power to be on top, why would they waste their time joining hands with others?
"I see," Yun Lintian nodded slowly. It was human nature, after all.
"However, you are different," Tian He said in a deep voice. "In the past, none of us could singlehandedly overwhelm each other. It was hard to convince each other to work together. But you, on the other hand, can comprehend the Great Laws. Technically, no one among the inheritors can be your opponent now."
"So, I should use my fist to convince them?" Yun Lintian asked.
"It is a simple truth," Tian He nodded. "One of the reasons they didn't want to take a risk was because they saw no hope. Even if they joined hands, there was no guarantee that they could defeat the God of Mortals."
Yun Lintian nodded slowly. It was simple-there was no leader among them. If he were in their position, he would hesitate as well. After all, there was a very slim chance to defeat Fan
Ren.
"I'll try my best," he said solemnly.
Yun Lintian didn't know why he was willing to take up the position now. Something inside him had truly changed. If it were the past, he wouldn't want to choose such a method to unite
the inheritors.
"That's good," Tian He breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that Yun Lintian would choose
to go alone again.
Yun Lintian looked at everyone and asked, "By the way, where is Qingxuan?"
Silence immediately descended as his voice fell...
