Chapter 1788: Mad God Ominous Ground (2/2)
“This Mad G.o.d still had a way to go before reaching the ancient realm back then, he was only a peak High G.o.d at best.” Li Qiye nodded: “That’s why he was slain so quickly.”
“But I heard Mad G.o.d had twelve totems.” Tieshu Weng quietly interjected.
“If he had twelve totems, he wouldn’t have needed to devour this area.” Li Qiye smilingly shook his head.
There were also two paths for cultivators at the Dao Celestial realm. The first was to compete for the Heaven’s Will while the other was to reach divinity.
The former had the chance to become a Grand Emperor or an Immortal Monarch. The other was to aim for G.o.dhood. At a particular level, a G.o.d could fight against an emperor.
An emperor shouldered the Heaven’s Will while a G.o.d fused their palaces with the grand dao to create totems.
This meant that a G.o.d with one palace could create one totem after creating a grand dao.
Of course, this process was quite difficult and required an immense amount of chaos energy.
There was also a limit for G.o.ds. Their apex was twelve totems with the t.i.tle of Ancient G.o.d. Those who couldn’t reach this level were called High G.o.ds.
Rumor has it that an Ancient G.o.d could contend against a top emperor.
This path didn’t come out of thin air. Its progenitor was the Inconcealable Ancient G.o.d.
His t.i.tle meant that below the high heaven, no one could ever blot out his brilliance!
He was indeed worthy of this t.i.tle. Not only was he the creator of the divinity path, he was also the first to have twelve totems in the tenth world!
“Devouring this place?” Tieshu Weng shuddered: “Mad G.o.d was the culprit?”
“That’s right.” Li Qiye nodded: “This place used to be magnificent with incredible sceneries. There was a powerful country here as well. However, Mad G.o.d truly wanted the twelfth totem to become an Ancient G.o.d; this required a large amount of chaos and primordial energies so he took a shortcut. He was a genius indeed but he demanded instant gratification and success. In the end, Immortal Emperor Diyi Jian killed him. Unfortunately, the emperor also invoked the Heavenly Execution afterward…” [1]
Mad G.o.d had another t.i.tle, Mad Devil. He was a heavener, blessed with amazing talents and a penchant for impetuous cruelty. His cultivation soared at an impeccable speed until he became an eleven-totems High G.o.d.
However, his ambition didn’t end there. He wanted to become an Ancient G.o.d since he believed this was the ultimate prestige of the divinity path.
Alas, he encountered a bottleneck and his origin energies were far from being enough for him to fuse his fate palaces and the grand dao. In the end, he invented a shortcut allowing him to devour the world.
Thus, he chose a prosperous country without an emperor and devoured everything here without exception. This action enraged Immortal Emperor Diyi Jian who came from the nine worlds. The emperor was billions of miles away and aimed at Mad G.o.d with his invincible arrow.
This arrow soared through the vast distance and pinned the Mad G.o.d till death on the ground!
This emperor had always kept a low-profile after ascending. He focused on cultivating to reach the apex. After coming to the tenth world, he picked up the way of archery again. Remember that his archery was matchless in the nine worlds but he abandoned it for some unknown reasons and became an emperor with a different dao.
