Chapter 1874: Chapter 1874: Gathering of the Clouds
"This..." Aviana hesitated. If it were a suggestion from a natural demigod, she would agree. But this proposal came from her father, and she knew him too well—when he was heartless, he was cold beyond measure, showing no regard for kin or affection.
Others always thought the Raven had changed sides, protecting the Ogres only due to their offerings. But she understood there was a deeper purpose behind the Raven’s actions, though she couldn’t fathom what it was.
If it were merely for faith, the Raven wouldn’t be so desperate, nor would he summon her, given they hadn’t been in contact for thousands of years.
"What is there to hesitate about? This kid is extremely cunning and has merged with an ancient god. Such a monster, if allowed to escape, would be a never-ending disaster. No one knows what escapes and hiding techniques he possesses. Think about it, could he have made two dragon queens bow down and dared to plot against other deities by relying solely on himself? Here, though his power is formidable, he hasn’t mastered the main god’s laws. A few more demigods could easily take him down," the God of Ravens said.
As the God of Ravens spoke, the surrounding space began to ripple, and demigods from the Chaos Camp were itching to make a move.
"Banshee, can you guarantee your successor hasn’t gone astray?" a ethereal voice echoed in the ears of the Dark Camp.
The queen said coldly, "And you call yourselves demigods, rattled by a few words from the enemy—laughable."
"How could a mere Banshee know the horror of an ancient god? Now, you just need to answer our question," the voice carried a hint of emotion, and anyone could hear the displeasure.
"You haven’t protected my forsaken ones, and we don’t worship you. You have no right to speak to me like that," the queen was not willing to show weakness.
"Heh, with such an arrogant mentor, no wonder the disciple is also so reckless. A mere rookie, can he control the power of the ancient god? If your camp doesn’t want to take action, we from other camps can join forces. It’s just an underdeveloped ancient god," another sharp voice said.
"Hmph, you old flying snake, you have no place here. If you want to show off, go back to your own territory," the initial voice said.
"Hahaha, Ten Thousand Spirits, don’t be arrogant. With such traitors emerging from your camp, you can’t escape responsibility," that voice disappeared.
At this moment, the Chieftain blocked the queen, who was about to explode, and said loudly, "Mother of Ten Thousand Spirits, although I haven’t interacted much with Prairie Fire, I trust our judgment. He is definitely not controlled by the ancient gods. General Li Yuan is fighting for our camp. If we can’t even trust our people, then we’ve fallen into someone else’s trap."
"You’re still too young. Although I’ve only been in this world for a few years, you can’t comprehend the might of ancient gods,"
The Mother of Ten Thousand Spirits was a demigod formed from the ancestral spirits worshiped by the Orcs, constituting the Orcs’ faith.
"My child, what do you say?" another gentle voice spoke.
The Tauren Chieftain said earnestly, "Mother of Earth, I agree with the Chieftain. If we ourselves don’t stand by our people, then who would fight for us in the future? General Li Yuan, a rookie, has achieved such brilliant feats and must be extraordinary. Besides, you all said the ancient god is dead. It’s only confirmed that he used the power of the ancient god. Well, could someone else achieve such accomplishments with the power of the ancient god?"
The queen also said, "So, just because you’re older doesn’t mean you know everything. I’ve controlled the Dark Touch for many years, and others have used its various parts to gain power. Have they accomplished this much? The Dark Touch is merely an auxiliary tool."
"The young girl makes sense. Honestly, old Bwonsamdi thinks you’re just to my liking. Since you’re Undead, why not worship me, the Death God?" a frivolous voice said.
"Death God, you’re really flattering yourself. Talk about faith when you truly become a main god," the queen said unceremoniously.
"Hahahaha, I’m increasingly fond of you. Old Bwonsamdi won’t give up," Bwonsamdi’s voice turned serious, "If power aligns with good and evil, shouldn’t I, as the Death God, be with the Chaos Camp?"
"In that case, intercept those old ones who are about to make a move," the Mother of Earth said, and then her voice completely disappeared.
At this moment, outside the space, colorful lights began to flicker. This was the effect of the demigods about to descend as they accumulated strength to break through the space barrier.
"What a big spectacle," Li Yao coldly smiled, looking at the colorful lights outside the space.
"Kid, surrender now. Even though you have main god-level spiritual power, you’re no match for this many demigods. Even if a few from the Dark Camp united, they couldn’t withstand the demigods from three camps," the Raven sneered.
"Haha, I must say, you’re cunning. In the face of defeat, you came up with this, but you’ll still fail," Li Yao said, then turned to Aviana, "Senior, if I can prove I haven’t merged with the Dark Touch, will that expose the Raven’s eternal conspiracy?"
Aviana was stunned, "If you open your soul and let everyone see your path of strength, it’s confirmed you haven’t merged, then of course."
"That’s easily done. There’s nothing on my path that’s unspeakable. Seniors, and those meddling old immortals, keep your eyes wide open and see what I’ve truly merged with,"
Li Yao said, then directly released his soul.
Boom!
At the center of Li Yao’s forehead, metallic radiance was emanating, with a small insect under its glow.
It was obvious the small insect was purified under the metallic radiance.
"Titan’s Heart, you’ve actually merged with the Titan’s Heart," Aviana exclaimed.
The God of Ravens couldn’t believe his eyes, "How is this possible, it’s an illusion technique, it must be an illusion technique."
"Hahaha, an illusion technique? Could my illusion technique simulate a real Titan clone to capture Dire Maul? You folks can take a look at the other army leader by the city walls; that’s also me. Is it not evident at first glance? Without merging on the path to strength, could I control the Metallic Worm Tribe like this? The Dark Touch is just a tool I’ve used. Would I give the ancient god a chance to resurrect? Ridiculous. I suggest you elders get some intel on how many times I’ve foiled ancient god conspiracies. If this goes on, even if you’re demigods, don’t blame me for being impolite. If I ascend to godhood one day, I’ll definitely settle scores,"
The initial part of Li Yao’s words was an explanation, but the latter part had everyone in shock. This kid was gutsy.
Calling these demigods old immortals was one thing, but threatening them and saying he’ll settle scores when he becomes a god was something else entirely.
"Impudent, how dare a mere ant threaten a god. I’ll destroy you now."
Boom!
A black draconid demigod descended, transformed into a streak of light, and rushed towards the enclosed space...
