Chapter 819: Confrontation (1/2)
Sam left the valley after a long talk.
There is not much that was told about the planet itself or the local power structure like before.
It was more about the nature of the creatures that live there.
He was surprised to learn that the creatures that live there do resemble humans for the most part but there is one aspect that is different from the humans which makes everything different.
That one difference is that people have wings there and they are called the Feathered race.
The race that has wings on their back and has a glaringly obvious difference from the humans. They are said to be descendants of the goddess herself.
They have tall physiques and the average person is around six and a half feet tall with extremely strong builds and wings.
They really are good at what they do.
Planet Nike is considered the origin of this race and it is named after the goddess.
The power dynamics of this planet are more down to earth and are even weaker than the Desolate planet in a way.
They only have six Consummate realms cultivator each in charge of a city which controls the one-sixth of the planet.
And in the middle of all these six cities, there is one large temple.
This is the only layout that Old beast gave and most of the information is more about how devout they are towards their goddess and Zeus who their goddess is serving.
As for why their power structure is weaker, it is not because of the lack of resources or even the lack of fertility and potential.
Their potential and superiority is almost on par with the elves. The only reason they are like this is because of the restrictions that the goddess herself placed. Every person who broke through the consummate realm must leave this place as they would be summoned to go to a higher realm which is controlled by Nike herself.
The planet is under her protection and there are no invasions on it from any other planet or realm, it is mostly due to the fact that no one wants to mess with a direct confidant of Zeus himself.
On top of that, this is the only place where Nike herself gives insights and teachings to the people.
After all the discussion Sam reached one conclusion, only Zeus has the power to release a Palace of inheritance here and Nike will be manipulating it for him in any way he wants.
Along with that, there would be some serious trouble especially for him because that could be the only reason why some gods wanted to mess with Ling Tian.
There is no other way around it, he has to think of some necessary precautions that could help with the extra trouble he is going to attract.
While Sam is thinking of making preparations, in the faraway realms Ling Tian is standing on a cliff as he held his sword. He is in the same state as when he talked to Sam.
He looked down on a person who is currently kneeling in front of him.
”So, you are from Olympus?”
”Yes, I gave you all the information I had, please spare me”
”And why would I do that now? You have lived comfortably for hundreds of thousands of years, you probably even forgot the times of struggle you had in the past bathing in the comfort of the peaceful and blissful life you had, why are you trying to mess with me? After all, the wounds of the struggle still didn't even heal properly. You can only blame yourself for your foolishness.”
With that, he sliced the head off.
He looked at the beautiful horizons before him and smiled.
The one who died in his hands just now is an immortal. He wouldn't have died if he didn't fight with him. He would have lived for hundreds of thousands of years more and could have seen many generations start and finish with his own eyes. But he died because of a god's pettiness and willfulness.
He turned around on looked at the ground, there are dozens of corpses with their heads separated. He killed more immortals who are just a step away from Godhood all by himself.
He took a deep breath and levitated into the air before turning into a sword light and disappearing into the horizon.
The sword light passed through the planet after planet, crossed realm after realm before tearing through the void and space, and entered a special realm that has a very high threshold for entering.
The realm is under the direct rule of Olympus and could be said to be the part of the Olympus itself.
This is the place where those immortals came from.
Ling Tian zoomed past the planets and entered one planet which has some high-level Immortals guarding outside.
But he didn't even flinch and just zoomed past them and the barrier they set up.
The sword light flashed through the city and landed in front of the castle in the middle of it.
The impact of his landing almost caused a sword storm around.
A bunch of guards surrounded him as soon as he arrived and they are all looking at him coldly ready to fight, but their bodies are acting more to their instincts as every step forward they took, they are feeling a bit hesitant.
The aura coming from Ling Tian is not exactly friendly and meek.
At this moment, a woman dressed in golden robes came out of the castle. There are golden wings on her back with those shiny golden feathers.
