Chapter 286: The Great Era (3)

More than a month later.
Archean City had already become one of the main battlefields in the Battle of the Three Clans.
This place was close to the Hundred Thousand Mountains and was the source of the zombie beasts’ violent army. In order to prevent the threat of the zombie beasts, the Giant Clan and the Insect Clan mobilized their troops. On the one hand, they occupied Archean City and sealed off the Hundred Thousand Mountains to reduce the number of zombie beasts. On the other hand, they sent people deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains to search for the traces of the Esek.
However, Esek was indeed cunning.
He was not in the Hundred Thousand Mountains at all.
Instead, at some point, he had returned to the main camp of the Corpse Clan, the Corpse G.o.d Territory.
Today, Esek received a summon from the Corpse G.o.d Ancestor and headed to Sky City.
In the Sky City, Esek saw a certain clone of the Corpse G.o.d.
The Corpse G.o.d was full of praise for Esek, and it did not skimp on rewards.
In short, the inspiring words spoken by the Corpse G.o.d left Esek feeling exhilarated, and he received generous rewards.
As he was riding a flying boat back to the lower city, Esek was still a bit dizzy. Suddenly, he saw a golden flying boat flying up from below, heading to the Sky City to meet the Corpse G.o.d Ancestor.
This made Esek couldn’t help but ask, “Who is that G.o.d?”
In any regime, there are strict rules and hierarchies.
In the Corpse Clan, those who could take the golden flying boats to the Sky City were either G.o.ds or G.o.d-level dignitaries.
Considering that the current battle between the three clans was in full swing and the scarcity of the Corpse Clan allies, it was unlikely that the foreign G.o.ds would visit the Corpse G.o.d at this time. So, the only remaining options were the other four Corpse Clan G.o.ds besides the Corpse G.o.d.
Behind him, the steward said, “I’m sorry, my lord. I didn’t know.”
Esek nodded in understanding and did not blame him. It was normal for his steward not to know about the matters of the G.o.ds.
Maybe it’s Lord Monte…
As he thought this in his heart, Esek did not know that his guess was far from the truth.
The golden flying boat stopped at the dock.
Divine power surged from within the Sky City and landed near the flying boat, blocking all external perception of this place.
At this moment, the door of the flying boat finally opened. An elegant figure slowly walked out, standing on the ground of the Sky City.
She had soft golden hair, fair skin, and bright blue eyes.
She stood at around 1.9 meters tall, with a perfect figure.
A thin veil covered her face, combined with her veil-like clothing, creating an alluring image.
At this moment, there was no one beside this woman. The woman waited for a moment before a figure quickly walked over from afar.
“Welcome, esteemed guest. I am truly honored to have you here!”
Zero’s avatar said with a smile, but the woman only narrowed her eyes slightly and pondered.
“I don’t know why you’ve invited me, Corpse G.o.d.”
After she finished speaking in a neither servile nor overbearing manner, she heard Zero replied with a smile, “Of course it’s a major matter, Your Excellency Origin Insect Mother.”
The Origin Insect Mother.
The guardian deity of the Insect Clan!
She was one of the oldest deities in the Black Mist Zone, with her origins dating back to the era of the Beast King.
However, recently, the Origin Insect Mother had rarely appeared in public, and all affairs of the clan had been entrusted to other deities of the Insect Clan.
Zero had indeed wielded considerable influence to bring this ancient deity to the Sky City.
Even if it was just a clone.
Looking at Zero, who was smiling, the Insect Mother’s brow furrowed, as she did not particularly like Zero. His expressions and demeanor always gave her an unsettling feeling, much like seeing a sinister shadow.
Still, the Insect Mother said coldly, “What’s the major matter?”
“If it’s something like the Three-Clan Battle, it’s not a significant matter for you and me…”
At the level of the clan guardian deities, a battle between the three clans that did not involve a divine battle was inferior to a fight between children.
Zero’s next words immediately made the Origin Insect Mother restrain its impatience.
“It concerns the Supreme G.o.d and your background.”
At this point, Zero faced the Insect Mother and gestured with his mouth.
The mouth movement depicted three words: Outer World Demon.
This made the Insect Mother instantly fall silent.
After a long silence, a cold glint flashed in the Insect Mother’s eyes.
“Let’s discuss this inside.”
The secret meeting between the Corpse G.o.d and the Insect Mother lasted for three days.
Three days later, the Insect Mother left Sky City thoughtfully.
After returning to her tribe’s territory, the Insect Mother immediately gathered the various Insect Clan deities and issued a secret decree.
On the same day, a secret organization called the “Subverters” mobilized its members almost in full strength, secretly infiltrating various regions within the Black Mist Zone.
Zone of Chaos, Moro City.
When Yuan’s clone arrived, he immediately saw the abnormality in Moro City.
From the outside, the city appeared as usual, but with the eyes of a deity, Yuan would be able to see that the entire Moro City seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious mist.
Through the mist, Yuan could clearly see that all the residents of Moro City were in a deep, uninterrupted slumber.
Their dreams were brewing energy that flowed into the depths underground.
Another source of energy in the depths of the ground was reflected into everyone’s bodies, maintaining the vital signs of everyone.
The bizarre scene made Yuan smirk.
“Little one, well done.”
As he muttered, his figure turned into light and instantly arrived deep underground in Moro City.
As if sensing Yuan’s arrival, countless pairs of huge crimson eyes beneath Moro City snapped open. Thus, the monster known as the Source of Dreams faced the deity named Yuan, in a direct confrontation!
Yuan was the first to speak. He had a smile on his face and his tone was gentle and soothing, “Serve me or die.”
Farther west of the Chaotic Domain, the Extreme Western Domain, also known as the Frozen Land.
This place was perennially covered in ice and snow, with freezing temperatures and rare visitors.
At the same time, it was the territory of another ancient and powerful first-cla.s.s clan, the Ancient Demon Clan.
If it was said that the Ancient Demon Clan was once a terrifying existence that could make a child stop coughing, and their strength was once number one in the world.
However, a long time ago, the Ancient Demon Clans had been defeated by the Eternal Clan and banished to the Frozen Land.
However, although they were defeated, they were still stronger than the weaker clans.
Based on the fact that the Ancient Demon Clan had been defeated by the Aeonians and could still stay in the Black Mist Zone instead of hiding in the ruins and struggling at death’s door, one could tell that the strength of the Ancient Demon Clan was far stronger than the Flame Clan at its peak.
Today, the four pillar deities of the Ancient Demon Clan stood before the Myriad Layered Demon Abyss, staring in silence for a long time.
It was not until the oldest and mightiest demon deity, the Desolate Demon Lord, finally spoke.
“I’ll go first, and you shall await my news.”
The other three deities were silent for a moment before speaking one after another.
“Take care on this journey.”
“What lies in the depths of the earth is still unknown. Relying solely on Zero’s words, I find it somewhat unwise, but it is indeed a glimmer of hope…”
“If you return safely from this journey, I, the Ice Pillar Demon G.o.d, Jeros, will willingly acknowledge you as the leader of the Ancient Demon Clan.”
But the Desolate Demon Lord ignored the voices of others, keeping his gaze fixed on the abyss. After a long while, he transformed into a streak of rainbow light and shot into the depths of the Abyss.
Only the other three Demon G.o.ds remained silent, gazing for a long time..
