Chapter 900: Questions and Answers

The man’s laughter was full of disdain, and it resounded through the entire palace hall. After a long time, the yin son of heaven stopped and said while looking at Li Yunmu, “You are a trivial god of the Origin World, but you speak very brazenly. In the Origin World, only those who had risen to ancient god realm can comprehend a domain.

“As for us, we can comprehend the domain after becoming Immortal. Eh, when we shed off mortality and become true Immortals, it is comparable to you people becoming gods.”

Li Yunmu nodded, then said, “You people from beyond the heavens are indeed ferocious. Those in god realm being able to comprehend domain is something that our Origin World cannot compare to. The gods of the Origin World are restricted and can only break through using the power of belief.”

When the yin son of heaven heard the words ‘power of belief’, disdain appeared in the eyes, and he smiled coldly. “The power of belief is a shortcut. It spoils the future and nothing more.

“You probably don’t know, but the power of belief was brought to the Origin World with the thought of causing internal strife among you all. But I hadn’t expected that not only would it cause internal strife, but it would also lead to a rebellion…

“When people from the Origin World tried to become true gods, they surprisingly took the initiative to collude with those from beyond the heavens. Back then, if this hadn’t happened, the Origin World wouldn’t have turned into a subordinate of beyond the heavens.”

Anyone who wanted to become a true god had to first possess the strength of a master god. The ancient gods were suppressed in advance, if their wish to rise was discovered.

But master gods were already at the top, so when they wanted to obtain the strength of a true god, they collaborated with people from beyond the heavens. After all, Brunhilda had said that the master god of Lanlou was still using power of belief before he was sealed.

Now, Asura and the other five ancient gods were colluding with the people from beyond the heavens, so didn’t it mean that the god who previously betrayed the Origin World was the master god of Lanlou? If he used power of belief at that time, he might have obtained the strength of a quasi true god.

But when the master god and the people from beyond the heavens colluded, how did the True God stop them? It was by sealing the entire Origin World. Could it then be that the other master gods had also betrayed the Origin World?

“So this was the case. No wonder then that the True God wanted to ban the use of power of belief in the Origin World, saying that it was a malignant tumor which shouldn’t be touched. It was the people from beyond the heavens playing a trick on him. But with a master god and you all colluding at that time, why couldn’t you capture the Origin World?” Li Yunmu asked with curiosity.

He was like a schoolchild right then who wanted to learn the secrets of the years passed from the mouth of yin son of heaven.

The man looked at Li Yunmu and said, “You status is very low. You’re only a god so you don’t know about the matters of that time nor the strength of the True God. Even when confronting a similar true god, his chances of victory would still be higher in his homeground.

“Even if the master gods betrayed him and the emperor monarchs from beyond the heavens came to attack the Origin World, the True God could still stop their advance and drive away the emperor monarchs. Moreover, the Origin World was sealed by the True God, so those from beyond the heavens couldn’t enter.”

Li Yunmu nodded after hearing it and courteously said, “Many thanks to you for telling me the secrets of those years. I still have one final question though. Since the Origin World is sealed, how did you people from beyond the heavens enter now?”

“It’s naturally because the seal has weakened. The True God used his body as the core of the spell formation, and the five master gods as the spell points to seal the Origin World. The factions of the emperor monarchs have been standing guard outside the Origin World for the moment the seal weakens, and when it did, they immediately reported it,” yin son of heaven explained while looking at Li Yunmu as a dead man.

He was just a god and nothing more. He was no different from an ant.

Even if Li Yunmu was someone who dressed as a pig to eat the tiger, he could at best be an ancient god of the Origin World. The yin son of heaven could reach the strength of the Origin World’s ancient gods by relying on his domain, which was sufficient to contend against the unknown god.

Even if Li Yunmu was a peak level ancient god, yin son of heavens wouldn’t be afraid of him. After all, his emperor father had bestowed him with his imprint before the journey to the Origin World. With the imprint of a quasi true god, he could insta kill an ancient god.

That was the reason why he was willing to explain so many things to a stranger.

Li Yunmu nodded, feeling enlightened. With the information obtained from the yin son of heaven, he was able to guess almost everything that had happened in the past.

At that time, beyond the heavens released power of belief in the Origin World, attracting the attention of the gods, who began fighting among themselves over it.

One of the master gods even colluded with beyond the heavens to overthrow the True God. Afterwards, when True God sensed this, he banished the emperor monarchs from beyond the heavens and sealed the five master gods as the spell points before sacrificing his divine body to close the Origin World.

However, when Li Yunmu opened one of the seals, the seal on the Origin World weakened, and the powers from beyond the heavens used the opportunity to enter the Origin World.

It meant that Li Yunmu was the culprit. If he hadn’t removed the seal, the powers from beyond the heavens wouldn’t have been able to enter the Origin World and join hands with the ancient gods of Lanlou.

“Why didn’t you tell me these things when I was removing the seal?” Li Yunmu asked the system in his mind.

The system sighed and helplessly said, [Even if I hadn’t told you about it, so what? Even if the seal wasn’t removed, beyond the heavens has a sage who is equivalent to a True God, so they would’ve undid the seal sooner or later. At that time, the Origin World would have been forced to become a subordinate of beyond the heavens.]

Li Yunmu didn’t reply. The facts also confirmed the system’s word. The seal of the Origin World was only a temporary solution; it would be opened from the outside sooner or later. Who knew how many of the five sealed master gods had relied on beyond the heavens? With how strong this enemy was, the Origin World was in grave danger.

“Do you still have anything else you want to ask? Apart from the cultivation of beyond the heavens, I can explain everything to you. If you don’t have, you can go and die,” yin son of heaven said with a carefree smile.

“Nothing, many thanks for explaining these things to me,” Li Yunmu said with sincerity, then slowly advanced toward yin son of heaven. His figure flashed, and he appeared in front of yin son of heaven with a punch.

When the yin son of heaven saw Li Yunmu being so brazen, he unhurriedly picked up a writing brush moistened in ink that lay on the table and sketched ‘人¹‘ character in the air.

That character erupted with the laws of death and collided against Li Yunmu’s punch.

The punch exploded, and the letter scattered. The punch then erupted with demonic energy that rushed to attack yin son of heavens while emitting the presence of a quasi master god.

“You are surprisingly a quasi master god!”

The yin son of heaven sensed the divine might, and his expression grew taut. His figure transformed into black fog and retreated continuously. He wanted to pass through the wall to escape.

When the black fog touched the wall, it shot back like a bullet and fell to the ground, transforming back into yin son of heaven. He looked at Li Yunmu with a gloomy expression and gnashed his teeth.

“You changed my spell formation! Despicable!”

A quasi master god coming to deal with him, who had just become an Immortal, was certainly strong bullying the weak.

With such a disparity in strength, secretly modifying the spell formation outside the palace was even more despicable.

But when Li Yunmu heard yin son of heaven’s words, he couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“You are a person from beyond the heavens, while I am a god of the Origin World,” he said once he calmed down. “If I get to kill you, then regardless of any methods I use, they can’t be considered as despicable or lowly. Between you and me, only one can survive.”
