"The supreme spear intent?"
Such a violent and overbearing spear intent made most people tremble. It was as terrifying as being suppressed by a supreme god's spiritual sense.
Bang! Bang! Bang
The black-robed guard's arms turned blood-red as he attacked the eight spears. The force of the collision threw him thousands of feet away.
An old figure suddenly appeared in front of the hall of the Ancestral Land. The ancestor himself showed up again to watch the battle.
"Argh!"
The black-robed guard roared madly at the counterattack. It had taken the young man only two moves to defeat him! He wouldn't accept it. After all the time of cultivating, had his hard work really been in vain?
"Come back. You are no match for Finley."
The ancestor spoke up, forcing the crazed guard to restrain the god's power.
"Yes, sir." Even though the guard was unwilling, he could only nod respectfully and fly back to the front of the hall, quietly landing beside the ancestor.
"Leave it be. It looks as if he's comprehended a lot from the battle scenes Supreme God Alfredo had left behind. Since he has reached the Deputy God Realm, it's understandable that you wouldn't be a match for him."
The guard didn't want to give up. The ancestor worried this would affect his warrior spirit, so he chose his words carefully to explain the matter to him.
"Yes, I understand." Only then did the guard's annoyance drop.
"Starry Sword, Finley Feng, both of you, come here." The ancestor's old, hoarse voice transmitted over to them.
"Yes, sir."
No matter how arrogant they were, they wouldn't dare disrespect the ancestor. This was not merely because of the ancestor's strength, but because of the faith all humans had. As their leader, he commanded respect from all.
Even if there were supreme gods among the younger generations, they were all obligated to respect the ancestor.
"Ancestor, what can I do for you?" Lord Feng asked as Lord Starry Sword didn't like to speak.
"Are you certain you can help Darren survive the tribulations?" the ancestor asked.
"Yes, ancestor. It's not due to any close ties we have with Darren. We simply see it as an opportunity. With Darren alive, our race will very likely have the strongest supreme god in the future. That could only be beneficial to us," Lord Feng explained.
"I too am aware of that. However, it would be incredibly difficult. Humans wouldn't be able to afford
eturned. You can now make a decision for us." The ancestor opened his eyes, asked Heath to make a decision, and said nothing more.
"What a troublesome boy! Had I known it earlier, I would have killed him. Why did I send him to the abyss? I was a fool to do so," Heath said calmly. There was no hostility in his tone.
He had been the one to send Darren to the supreme gods' cemetery, but Darren hadn't known his identity at all.
"So, are you going to help him survive the tribulations?" the ancestor asked.
Heath didn't answer, lost in thought.
"Why? Ancestor, why are you letting Heath make the decision? Even if he is an ascetic cultivator in the supreme gods' cemetery, he is not worthy enough to make a decision for the entire human race," someone complained.
Even the ancestor wouldn't take such a decision lightly, so why did he allow an ascetic cultivator to make it? This concerned billions of lives!
"It just so happens that our human race's powerful cultivators are all here. Now let me announce some news. Heath is to become the seventh supreme god of the human race."
His words caused a stir, and everyone's blood began to boil.
They couldn't believe what they had just heard. The seventh supreme god of the human race? What was even more inconceivable was that Supreme God Braxton was the fifth one.
While people respectfully called Alfredo Supreme God Alfredo, he wasn't considered a real supreme god. What made Heath the seventh supreme god? Was there a sixth one? How was that possible?
What was going on?
Lord Starry Sword and Lord Feng were just as taken aback as the rest.
