Chapter 1167: Three Evil Tyrants! (1/2)

“Is there anything after the Holy Godly Ancestor layer, Master?” Lin Feng asked. Godly Ancestor Tu Jin had told him there were five sublevels, but he hadn’t mentioned the last two.

“Earthly Godly Ancestors and Heavenly Godly Ancestors. I usually call them Small Godly Ancestors and Great Godly Ancestors. Any cultivator who is capable of becoming a Small Godly Ancestor can become an overlord.”

“And you, Master, what kind of Godly Ancestor are you?” asked Lin Feng, curious now.

“Earthly Godly Ancestor. The Ancestors of the Five Cardinal Points and the Overlords of the Four Cardinal Points are all Small Godly Ancestors, including Ni Huang!” said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin. His expression changed slightly. It wasn’t obvious, but Lin Feng noticed it instantly.

“What’s the matter?”

“I’m wondering when you will break through to the Earthly Godly Ancestor layer. It’s extremely difficult. With your talent, I think you’ll need at least a few hundred years. When you break through to the Godly Ancestor layer, it becomes extremely difficult to progress. Godly Ancestors need help or a powerful background to progress; without help, they can’t obtain mysterious Godly Dao skills and without them, they’re in permanent danger and can die at anytime!” said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin seriously. He had struggled for a long time to find a Godly Dao skill, and progressed only when he found one. Without it, he wouldn’t have become one of the Ancestors of the Five Cardinal Points.

Lin Feng saw that Tu Jin was quite grim, and realized how difficult the whole process could be. Godly Dao skill? What kind of skills were Godly Dao skills? Or weren’t they really skills?

“Godly Dao skills are simple cultivation skills and practices Godly Ancestors have. Such skills can be found in historical remains and in various big sects and clans. Also, the same things can be learned directly from the earth and the sky.”

“And it’s extremely difficult?” asked Lin Feng. He noticed the old man’s expression kept changing.

“What do you think? Godly Ancestors already break the rules of reality all the time. They go against the will of heaven, but there are many Godly Ancestors now, so what can nature do now? Nothing. Nature just wants to learn how to keep Godly Ancestors under control!

“Alright, you know enough for now,” said Godly Ancestor Tu Jin. He didn’t want to tell Lin Feng everything. If he told Lin Feng too much, his disciple would probably forget things. He needed to experience life himself. If Godly Ancestor Tu Jin told him everything beforehand, it would be boring for Lin Feng.

It was important to experience things oneself; danger was necessary to break through to the Godly Ancestor layer. A cultivator had to have the impression they were going to die!

“Wait, Master! The Ancestors of the Five Cardinal Points and the Overlords of the Four Cardinal Points are all Earthly Godly Ancestors, so where are Heavenly Godly Ancestors?” asked Lin Feng.

He hadn’t told Lin Feng anything about Heavenly Godly Ancestors.

“If you ever have the opportunity in this life, go to Hong Meng or the Ancestral World. You’ll see if there are Heavenly Godly Ancestors there. It is said that only one person has ever managed to break through to the Heavenly Godly Ancestor layer since the ancient times.”

“Who?”

“I don’t know his name. I just know he had an axe. He was gigantic and terrifying. He was five hundred zhang tall. Bigger than a beast.”

“And now…?” asked Lin Feng.

“He disappeared. I guess he must be in Hong Meng or the Ancestral World, but he’s in none of the seven corners of the World of Battles, for certain.”

“Uhhh… Why did you say seven, and not eight?”

“Hong Meng is the central part, have you forgotten about that?”

“…… So where is the Ancestral World? The World of Battles is divided into eight parts, and Hong Meng is in the central part, so where is the Ancestral World?”

“Since when are you that stupid? The World of Battles and the Ancestral World are parallel worlds.”

“But, Master, isn’t the area around the World of Battles called the Peripheral Region of the World of Battles?”

“Isn’t the Ancestral World a part of the periphery of the World of Battles?”

“…”

Lin Feng and Godly Ancestor Tu Jin chatted while flying. At the beginning, Godly Ancestor Tu Jin explained everything patiently to Lin Feng, but now Lin Feng was asking so many questions. Godly Ancestor Tu Jin didn’t feel like explaining so much.

Qing Huang Tian followed them silently. She was floating on a rainbow-colored cloud. The cloud looked very soft, like feathers. She looked like a celestial being illuminated by rainbow colors.

Qian Jin Cai Yue also flew on a cloud. Her cloud wasn’t rainbow-colored, though. It looked simpler, but its Qi was more powerful. Her cloud was faster than Qing Huang Tian’s.

Godly Ancestor Tu Jin also used a cloud. Lin Feng felt ridiculous suddenly. He now understood that everybody in the World of Battles had a high position in society. They could all use clouds to fly. It was a symbol of strength and social status.

Lin Feng didn’t have a cloud, and he had never thought of using a cloud to fly. He could fly in the air without anything… was flying on a cloud more convenient?

Lin Feng didn’t understand the culture of the World of Battles…
