Free Web NovelChapter 347: Chapter 188: Sixty Years Pass in a Flash, Today I Slay a God
WHOOSH!
In the vast sky.
A fierce wind howled, stirring the clouds for thousands of miles.
A Golden-Winged Roc flew forward at an incredible speed.
It soared over cities, farmlands, mountains, and great rivers, casting a massive shadow below.
Wang Xiao, Bai Wu, and Hei Liu sat cross-legged atop the Golden-Winged Roc, chatting idly.
They were still tens of billions of miles away from the Human Ancestral Land.
Even a Celestial Venerable would need at least ten to fifteen days to make the journey.
This was why Wang Xiao had decisively released the Golden-Winged Roc he had kept in his Grotto Heaven to serve as a mount.
Although the Golden-Winged Roc’s strength was average, its bloodline was special.
When it came to speed, not even a Celestial Venerable could necessarily match it.
The Golden-Winged Roc had long since witnessed Wang Xiao’s power. freёwebnovel.com
It didn’t dare to complain now and simply focused on flying obediently.
Bai Wu spoke up.
"In terms of power, Feng Qing and Yao Shi both rank near the top among Celestial Venerables. That Celestial Will Four Symbols Arrow, in particular... even if Hei Liu and I joined forces, I’m afraid we could barely block it."
"For you, Lord Wang, to suppress both of them, and with only a Divine Palace Realm Cultivation at that... it truly was an eye-opening experience for Hei Liu and me."
Wang Xiao gave a noncommittal reply.
"I’ve noticed that your aura and that of the Black Celestial Venerable beside you are condensed and intertwined as one. It is quite fascinating."
Bai Wu gave a bitter smile and didn’t hide the truth.
"Hei Liu and I aren’t related by blood. Years ago, we mistakenly consumed a Unity Grass. Although our power increased greatly, our bloodlines also became linked."
"As a result, the two of us often act together, and most of our Divine Techniques are interconnected."
Wang Xiao nodded slightly.
This world was vast, so it was natural for it to contain many Heavenly and Earthly Treasures.
It wasn’t surprising that a treasure capable of linking people’s bloodlines existed.
Hei Liu seemed to be a man of few words, so it had been Bai Wu conversing with Wang Xiao the entire time.
After a moment of thought, Bai Wu asked,
"By the way, Lord Wang, what are your thoughts on the Divine Race and the Demon Race?"
Unsure if Bai Wu was testing him or had some other motive, Wang Xiao replied,
"In the world today, the Human Race is merely meat on the chopping block for the Divine-Demon Races. After hundreds of thousands of years of assimilation, many humans, including Celestial Venerables, have grown accustomed to the Divine Race’s rule. Breaking free from these mental shackles is not something that can be achieved overnight."
Take the two Celestial Venerables he had encountered earlier, Feng Qing and Yao Shi, for example.
Within the Human Race, their status had reached the pinnacle, earning them the reverence and admiration of hundreds of millions.
Yet, deep in their bones, they still held a heartfelt reverence for the Divine Race.
This wasn’t just because of the Divine Race’s power, but because of the subtle, long-term influence they had exerted over the Human Race.
It had instilled in all humans the feeling that the Divine Race was high and mighty, completely insurmountable.
"Lord Wang, your words hit the nail on the head."
Hearing this, Bai Wu’s eyes lit up slightly.
Then, he sighed.
"Unfortunately, ever since the Carefree Celestial Venerable failed in his attempt to slaughter the gods all those years ago, the Celestial Venerables of the major Holy Land Sects today only want to protect their own little territories. They’ve completely given up any thought of resisting the Divine Race."
"However, what they don’t realize is that when the nest is overturned, no egg stays unbroken. If the conflict between the Divine-Demon Races ever ends, the only thing awaiting our Human Race is endless enslavement, or even complete annihilation."
Wang Xiao’s voice was calm. "You can’t blame those Celestial Venerables. If there were any hope, who would want to be a Celestial Venerable and still have to bow to others?"
"From the looks of it, the power of the Divine-Demon Races truly far surpasses that of our Human Race."
During this time, through his analysis, he had already learned a great deal about the Divine-Demon Races.
These Divine-Demon Races had suddenly descended upon this world hundreds of thousands of years ago.
They were humanoid but had forms very different from humans.
Members of the Divine Race had light golden hair and pupils.
And when they used their techniques, golden wings would sprout from their backs.
The Demon Race, on the other hand, had horns growing from their heads and pure black pupils.
When they used their techniques, they too would sprout wings, but like their pupils, these wings were pure black.
Of course, both the Divine Race and the Demon Race were extremely powerful.
The moment they arrived, they began a massive slaughter of the Human Race. freewebnσvel.cѳm
As the original inhabitants, humans were no match for them at all.
Fortunately, the first leader of the Human Race, Yu, used the Nine Tripods established across the Nine Provinces to lead his people in a fierce resistance.
This ultimately allowed the Human Race a moment to breathe, saving them from being completely annihilated by the Divine-Demon Races.
Unfortunately, with Yu’s passing,
The Human Race grew weaker by the day. Even the Nine Tripods that once stood in the Nine Provinces were divided up by the Divine-Demon Races.
In the end, only two of the Great Cauldrons remained under human control, and they became what is now the Human Ancestral Land.
After being dealt a heavy blow by Yu, the Divine-Demon Races also grew clever.
They no longer appeared to fight directly. Instead, they each began to back factions within the Human Race and the Demon Race, instigating conflict.
This struggle has lasted for over a hundred thousand years, leading to the situation we see today!
Actually, the members of the Divine-Demon Races currently in this world are not the same ones from all those years ago.
They are the Divine-Demon Descendants!
The original Divine-Demon Races left this world for some unknown reason long ago, after their battle with Yu.
However, they did not depart completely. Instead, they took up residence among the Stars outside this world.
From there, they have been monitoring this world ever since!
And through the Divine-Demon Descendants, they indirectly control this realm!
If anyone among the humans ever appears who surpasses the Celestial Venerable level,
the Divine-Demons surrounding this world will intervene and erase them directly!
Because of this, both the Human Race and the Demon Race have always lived under the rule of the Divine-Demon Races.
They have no way to break free.
Even the Human Ancestral Land, relying on the Great Cauldrons within it, can only barely survive.
