Chapter 1565 Chapter 1565: Dread
Unfortunately, over his decision, their argument increased to the point that eventually, there was a battle in the endless space that lasted for an eternity, before it ended with the sealing of the Second Ancestral God who accepted his defeat after getting a promise that the humans won't be erased.
A special tomb was created where the Second Ancestral God was sealed for eternity. And Long Chen felt as if he was the one who sealed him.
As promised, he let humans exist. Not only did he let humans live, but he also made them flourish. As time passed, he even became somewhat fond of humans. The source of this content can be connected to n0v3lb!n★
Many times, he even came down to various worlds, one of which was the world where Demons and Heavenly Beings lived together.
That's where he taught the two species leaders some of the Knowledge of the Sealed Ancestral God, wanting that knowledge to live on.
However, when he saw the two species fighting each other with that same knowledge, he was furious. He sealed both the Ancestral God and the Demonic God.
Not only that, but he also erased the knowledge that he had granted. That's why the Demonic Ancestor, after his return to the Demonic Realm, found out that all the inheritance knowledge of the Ancient Time wasn't known to any in his clan.
With time, Long Chen saw the Ancestral God roaming various mortal worlds. At one time, he was even pleased by a mortal that had helped him although he didn't actually need help.
In the process, the mortal had died. Although it was a futile sacrifice that the Ancestral God didn't need that mortal to make, he was still pleased by the morals of the person to even save a stranger.
The reason he couldn't accept the inheritance of the other god was because it was truly beneath him!
His true inheritance was so much more than the Demonic Ancestor had received, since it truly belonged to him. It was also vast like the universe.
From the creation of the universe to the present time, he had always been there. From the creation to the Immortals to the mortals, he had always been there. He was there when the first life form was created. He was also there when the first immortal was slayed!
He was there when the first mortal broke through. He was also there when the first mortal died at the age of 69. He had been everywhere, yet he had been nowhere. He was the only constant in the world. He was the beginning, and he was the end.
The Martial Spirit slowly started disappearing as Long Chen recovered his memories that he himself had sealed at the time of his rebirth. The Martial Spirit truly merged with him, returning all he had sealed in the past from his knowledge to his strength.
This was the true awakening... The awakening of the Ancestral God who set out to experience a mortal life.

"Why isn't it working? Why can't I take anything from him?"
In the barren world painted red, Tian Shen was going crazy. Everything was in place. His link with Long Chen was also established, yet for some reason he wasn't able to take even a shred of the bloodline.
He had devoured even more powerful beings than Long Chen who possessed this bloodline, but it had never been like his. He couldn't understand what was happening. It was as if everything was right yet everything was wrong.
While he was going hysterical, trying to find a solution, he noticed Long Chen opening his eyes.
Seeing in Long Chen's eyes, even Tian Shen felt a strange sense of dread wash over him.
