Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1871: Returning the Dao Bone

Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

The strength of the Qin Clan was far mightier compared to the Divine Ox Clan. Even when the Luoshen Clan was at the peak of its glory, they had declined when they fought against the Qin Clan. Needless to say, the current Luoshen Clan had insufficient strength. Even with the aid of the five demon sovereigns, they still wouldn’t be a match for the Qin Clan.

Luoshen Chuan naturally also wished to get revenge for this debt. However, it wasn’t going to be so easy. They could pressure the Divine Ox Castle because they had enough strength. But if they headed towards the Qin Clan, the Qin Clan would surely not hesitate to start a war. In addition, the Qin Clan had hostages. Clearly, the five demon sovereigns would also never agree to this.

The expressions of Luoshen Chuan, Luoshen Lei and the others turned solemn when they heard Qin Wentian’s words. In the Qin Clan, Luoshen Han and the ten world overlords would surely be imprisoned. Nobody had any idea what their fates are.

“Grandfather, senior demon sovereigns, I’m preparing to leave the Desolate Region.” Qin Wentian suddenly spoke.

“You are going to leave?” Luoshen Chuan’s eyes flashed.

“Mhm. Grandfather, try to be more cautious in the Desolate Region.” Qin Wentian nodded his head as he reminded. Now that the Luoshen Clan was fragmented, the Divine Ox Clan would surely not let the matter rest like that. In addition, the Qin Clan also wanted to capture Luoshen Chuan. In the future, the Desolate Region would surely be extremely chaotic.

“We are in the shadows, you don’t have to worry about us. But as for you...” Luoshen Chuan couldn’t set his heart at ease about his grandson Qin Wentian.

“I’m fine. The demon sovereigns have already gave the order not to leak any news of me. No one knows my location after Qin Zhong died. I’ve also told Luoshen Meng and the rest to keep this a secret. No one will know I’m the one who killed Devilox. I’m someone who is long classified as missing.” Qin Wentian smiled. The Heaven Devouring Demon Sovereign nodded, “Don’t worry about this point. The Demon God Mountain will surely not leak anything about this. It’s just that, I’m worried about that little fellow.”

“Since senior is fond of that little fellow, I’m naturally more than happy to hear that. It’s for his own good that he has the fortune to cultivate at senior’s side. I will settle this with him.” Qin Wentian spoke. The Heaven Devouring Demon Sovereign nodded. He wanted to nurture Little Rascal into the sixth demon sovereign of their Demon God Mountain.

Luoshen Lei felt some reluctance but she knew that it wasn’t safe for Qin Wentian to remain in the Desolate Region. Leaving would be a better choice. Qin Wentian stayed for one more night at the Demon God Mountain. He spent his time chatting with Luoshen Lei. The three beautiful maidens from the Luoshen Clan also came and thanked him. He then went to speak with Little Rascal, persuading him. And when morning came, Qin Wentian departed the Luoshen Clan.

Most probably in the near future, the Desolate Region would be extremely chaotic. However, all of this no longer had anything to do with Qin Wentian. Before becoming a heavenly deity, he had no way to do anything about the situation in the Desolate Region.

...

Time flowed by, the incident of the Divine Ox Clan caused a great commotion in the Desolate Region, and news about this naturally spread to all the peak powers in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms. There were people mocking the Divine Ox Clan, jeering at their fantasies. Before truly reigning supreme, they learned from the Qin Clan and went to humiliate the Luoshen Clan. In the end, they were simply courting their own humiliation. The Qin Clan’s strength was able to make it so that the Luoshen Clan didn’t dare to look for them for revenge. But for the Divine Ox Clan, their strength clearly wasn’t at that level. Not only did they not obtain the bloodline of the Luoshen Clan, they even lost their inheritance dao bone.

In the Luoshen Clan, many people sent voice transmissions to Luoshen Chuan, persuading him to go back and take up the leadership position. However, Luoshen Chuan refused. Right now, the Luoshen Clan could be considered officially divided. If he returned, the situation would still be that of vying for authority. He might as well stay in the shadows of the Desolate Region. By doing so, the Divine Ox Clan wouldn’t recklessly dare to move against the Luoshen Clan.

Luoshen Chuan didn’t want to return, but there were some people who wanted to follow him but they were rejected by Luoshen Chuan. Now since Luoshen Chuan wanted to stay in the darkness, it would be more convenient for him if the number of people was less. If he established a base like the Luoshen Clan on the Luoshen Mountain, it would in fact be even more dangerous.

The Divine Ox Clan was investigating the identity of the person who killed Devilox. Back then, the heavenly deities who were followers of Luoshen Chuan appeared, it was impossible for them to be involved as they were fighting against Luoshen Qiong and that heavenly deity from the Divine Ox Clan. The vast majority of the escort team from the Luoshen Clan was driven away by the Divine Ox Clan, even if there are people who remained behind, there would only be one or two at most. But, including Devilox, there were still many powerful world overlords from the Divine Ox Clan. This definitely constituted an extremely powerful force. If a heavenly deity didn’t act, who would be strong enough to act against them?

This matter also became a secret. It was impossible for Divine Ox Clan to find an answer. Naturally, as for the dao bone, they weren’t able to find it either.

The character and object they wanted were both now in the lower world, the Azure Mystic Immortal Realm.

After a long journey, Qin Wentian finally returned to Azure Mystic.

After Qin Wentian came back, he immediately headed towards the ancient battlefield in Ancient Azure Mystic. His friends and family were all cultivating there.

In the ancient battlefield, the experts of the Battle Saint Tribe all gathered together in a certain location. They felt somewhat bewildered and had no idea why their Saint Lord suddenly wanted to summon them. Also, the Saint Lord told them to gather all their clansmen here. This was the first time such a thing happened.

“Does anyone know what the Saint Lord wants?” Someone asked in bewilderment. Everyone shook their heads, indicating that they had no idea. Qi Yu’s eyes gleamed, he also didn’t understand the reason for this. He understood Qin Wentian’s character very well. If there was a major matter, he would surely not have summoned the entire Battle Saint Tribe, he would also have summoned the rest of his followers as well. After all, the people following Qin Wentian now wasn’t limited to the Battle Saint Tribe alone.

Qi Yu was the Emperor Yu back then, the servant of Ancient Emperor Yi. But now, his title was no longer Emperor Yu because he had already broken through to the world overlord level. Although he was just an ordinary world overlord, he still managed to step into the fabled world overlord realm. It wasn’t that easy to do so.

At this moment, spatial fluctuations could be felt as a spatial gate appeared in the air. After that, a figure walked out from within, it was none other than Qin Wentian. The Qin Wentian today was no longer the young man who entered the God Hand Mountain Manor, or the same person who entered the secret realm of the Battle Saint Tribe. He was now a hegemonic-level world overlord, a truly supreme expert. Just standing there casually would cause him to give off the presence of a majestic and towering mountain. It was like his entire person was one with the heavens.

It was very possible that the Saint Lord of this generation would lead their Battle Saint Tribe to unprecedented heights.

“Saint Lord.” Everyone bowed and called out, they were all very respectful to Qin Wentian. Right now, Qin Wentian wasn’t merely their saint lord, he was also the Heaven Empyrean of Azure Mystic, and was a hegemonic-level world overlord. Any of his identities was sufficient to make them respect him. Even in the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms, he was able to summon the wind and rain with his current power.

Qin Wentian nodded lightly, “Ever since I became the Saint Lord of the Battle Saint Tribe, many years have already passed. It has always been members of your tribe supporting me, yet I’ve not done anything for you all. Now, I believe that you guys already know who is the true enemy of your Battle Saint Tribe.”

When in the Heavenly Dao Sacred Academy, he already told the members of the Battle Saint Tribe who went there with him.

“Saint Lord, our Battle Saint Tribe is able to have our current strength today, was all because of your help. What you have done has already surpassed what the previous two saint lords have done for us.” Someone spoke, not agreeing with Qin Wentian’s words. Many people nodded, they all knew gratitude. If there was no Qin Wentian, let alone reaching the world overlord realm, they wouldn’t even know when would they be able to break through to the empyrean realm. And now, there were already several world overlords in their Battle Saint Tribe.

“That’s right. Saint Lord, there’s no need to say such things. As for our enemies, we all know they are the Divine Ox Clan from the Desolate Region.

Qin Wentian nodded as he continued, “I just returned from the Desolate Region. Also, I had some conflict with the Divine Ox Clan.”

“Saint lord, how is the Divine Ox Clan’s current strength?”

“They are one of the three hegemonic powers of the Desolate Region and have a total of seven demon gods.” Qin Wentian replied. The expressions of the people from the Battle Saint Tribe turned extremely unsightly, feeling despair in their hearts. Seven heavenly deities? To them, such height was simply unreachable. It seemed that there would still be a long time before they can take revenge.

“This time around, I brought something back from the Divine Ox Clan.” Qin Wentian spoke. After that, with a wave of his hand, a beam of light flashed. Before Qin Wentian, a resplendent object appeared. This was none other than a golden-colored dao bone with countless blood runes engraved upon it.

When this dao bone radiated its light, in that instant, everyone in the Battle Saint Tribe felt the power of their blood boiling in their bodies. Red-color wisps of energy from the dao bone floated over and directly seeped into their bodies, forming a connection with the resplendent dao bone.

A feeling like their bloodlines have connected appeared. The expressions of the Battle Saint Tribe changed as the power of their blood roared in their veins. A shocking amount of battle intent gushed forth from each of them involuntarily. Their hearts pounded rapidly, all of them could feel that this dao bone belonged to their Battle Saint Tribe. It was like the dao bone was a part of their bodies.

“The Battle Saint Bone!”

A solemn voice rang out. There was no mistake. Although this was the first them they saw this, they could clearly sense that this was none other than the inheritance saint bone of their Battle Saint Tribe. Today, their Saint Lord has actually brought it back.

The eyes of many people instantly turned red. The Battle Saint Tribe had declined because their ancestral Battle Saint Dao Bone was seized. Now, after the passage of countless years, the Battle Saint Bone once again appeared before them, brought back by their Saint Lord. They had an indescribable feeling in their hearts.

“The heavens are protecting our tribe, how fortunate it is for us for the Saint Lord to have found us.” An old man sighed. After that, he actually knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Qin Wentian. He had a cultivation base at the empyrean level yet he was so emotionally moved that tears were flowing from his eyes. Who in the world wouldn’t want the power of this dao bone? Yet, their Saint Lord simply took it out and returned to them.

“Saint Lord.” More and more people knelt, they were so agitated that their bodies trembled. At this moment, their emotions towards Qin Wentian was more sincere and honest than what they had ever been before. Their Saint Lord brought back their ancestral saint bone for them.

“There’s no need to act like this, everyone please get up.” Qin Wentian spoke. A formless energy engulfed everyone and pulled them back up. He looked at the reactions of the Battle Saint Tribe as he sighed in his heart. Ever since people of the Battle Saint Tribe were born, they had to carry this heavy responsibility. The memories of the ancestral dao bone was also engraved in their hearts. Now, they could finally see the long lost ancestral Battle Saint Bone and could truly feel for themselves the connection between them and it. No wonder they were so agitated.

It seems like although in this generation, the ancestral dao bone was inherited by Devilox, it still ultimately belonged to the Battle Saint Tribe. Just simply by floating in the air already caused a resonance between it and the blood of the Battle Saint Tribe.

“Don’t be so agitated yet. There is only one dao bone but there are many of you. Who should it belong to?” Qin Wentian asked. The experts of the Battle Saint Tribe froze. Honestly speaking, the dao bone has appeared and formed a resonance with them. Who among the tribe wouldn’t want it?

If they said they didn’t want it, that would be hypocrisy. But there was only one dao bone, who would obtain it?

“We will listen to Saint Lord’s decision.” That old man from earlier bowed. Everyone nodded. The dao bone was brought back by their Saint Lord. Also, they had all originally already vowed to follow their Saint Lord’s orders. It should be Qin Wentian who decided this.

“Since this is the case, don’t blame me for those who didn’t get the dao bone.” Qin Wentian spoke, not hesitating.

“How would we blame Saint Lord. Now that the dao bone has returned, it would be inherited by the later generations successively. As long as it is not seized away again, it will always exist in the body of one of our members, belonging to our Battle Saint Tribe. Also, it would automatically choose the next inheritor based on their talent. We only hope that one day, our Battle Saint Tribe can take back what once belonged to us.” That old man’s voice was solemn.

“Mhm.” Many people nodded. “We shall obey the decision of Saint Lord.”

“Good. Since this is the case, I won’t be overly courteous any longer.” Qin Wentian nodded and continued, “Qi Yu, right now your cultivation base is at the world overlord realm. You will be the one to inherit the Battle Saint Bone. I hope that the saint bone will be able to unleash the glory of the past through you.”

Qin Wentian chose Emperor Yu. One of the reasons was because Emperor Yu was now a world overlord. As for the second reason, it was because Emperor Yu had shown him kindness many times in the past. Back then in Azure Mystic, Emperor Yu saved him multiple times when the emperor-level battles erupted between the peak powers. Qin Wentian wanted to repay this debt, hence he was slightly biased. But then again, which human would truly be completely impartial?
