“However, Ancient Gods can still be studied. For me, they constitute a significant foundation. Even if I don’t become an Ancient God, I can use their strengths to compensate for my weaknesses and continue to perfect my Human Race Bloodline.”
“Aside from the followers and a small portion of forces under the Divine, most forces seem to tacitly allow their growth.”
“Most are handled by the Lords. The native forces seem to be waiting for something and haven’t taken action. Moreover, some cults formed by followers of the Ancient Gods and ambitious individuals are expanding aggressively. Rumor has it that they’ve received the Ancient God’s blessings and their strength has increased.”
“Hmm, just raise the price for those second-hand dealers as a warning. If they don’t heed the warning, then deal with them,” Qin Muye said with an indifferent tone.
“Has the erosion by the Ancient Gods been ongoing?”
“The Ancient Gods are coming fiercely. The native forces are dragging their feet and causing a mess, and the Lords are too busy to care for themselves. They have to reclaim wild lands and clear out remnants of the Ancient Gods. It’s really tough.”
“Seems like the Ancient God Relics are remnants of the forces eroded by the Ancient Gods in the past, and the Ancient God’s Minions are the followers transformed by them,” Qin Muye squinted his eyes, seeing the Ancient God Relics more like fragments of time.
“Anything else?” Qin Muye inquired.
“It’s just that I’m not sure if these Ancient Gods would recognize my identity.” He felt that, as a juvenile Titan, a juvenile Ancient God, and a juvenile Lord of Hell, he ought to be able to claim some familial connection.
“Oh, right, the minds of those followers of the Ancient Gods don’t seem too sharp. Their behaviors are not only chaotic and disordered but also arrogant and conceited. There have been followers of the Ancient Gods who have boldly declared that they want to make the True Dragon Emperor a sacrifice.”
“Oh, if a true Ancient God revival happens, I guess everyone will flee to another server. Who would stay and wait for death…”
“From this perspective, this Ancient God might be the progenitor of a certain type of energy, like an Element God rather than a current racial god?”
“Yes, I will give them a proper warning,” Black Hand said with an unchanged expression but internally calculating how to wring more value from these fools.
“Forget about those fools,” Qin Muye felt confident in his position. He hadn’t gained any benefits and naturally didn’t want to play the savior for the so-called greater good. If the natives didn’t care, why should he, an outsider Lord, help save their world? That would be nonsense.
“Not only am I a Titan Embryo, but also an Ancient God Embryo?” Qin Muye felt a headache coming on.
“That’s unlikely… If it were something like the progenitor of Magic Power, then who could resist?”
“Many are reselling our munitions to the followers of the Ancient Gods, making a hefty profit,” Black Hand pondered before speaking.
“With this development, doesn’t it mean that the first three rewards are traps?”
“Master, the origins of Orange Village have been found,” Black Hand transmitted a piece of intelligence through the Magic Network to Qin Muye.
“I always feel… this thing seems somewhat familiar?” Qin Muye looked at the core element extracted from the fleshly orange that could be called Ancient God’s Power.
“How are the Ancient God Relics doing recently?” Qin Muye asked Black Hand through the Magic Network.
However, these arrivals did not seem to be very targeted. For instance, Orange Village, according to the intelligence, was not located on the Red Wind Plain, meaning it was moved here out of thin air.
Not because Orange Village is a hidden force, but because it is from an ancient era.
After checking, Qin Muye also found out why it took so long.
From the moment he obtained this Talent, all the Crimson Power on the entire Magic Continent Server originated from him, and he could even spread it to other worlds.
The probability is mostly Rank 7, with a small chance of Rank 8.
But with these scant pieces of information, such as the Feast of Oranges and the records of the Orange God, Qin Muye confirmed that Orange Village, which perished thousands of years ago, was indeed the Orange Village within the Ancient God Relics.
Of course, the similarity lies in the type, not the nature.
Concerning the developmental capabilities of the Lords, Qin Muye had his own profound experience; those who survived were no ordinary people.
Afterward, Qin Muye began researching the fleshly orange. After three days, he made significant findings regarding the extracted core element.
As for the origin of the Crimson Source, it’s part of the Ancient Gods; thus, theoretically… he is also a part of the Ancient Gods, and he also walked a deviating path of the Ancient Gods through various experiments and modifications.
Selling munitions to followers of the Ancient Gods? This was infringing on his interests.
The Ancient Gods resurrected from death, returning with their followers and the eroded time of the past anew.
The Ancient God might be strong, but it shouldn’t be overwhelmingly so, even if the event failed and the Ancient God was revived, it could probably only reach Rank 8 at most, with Rank 9 being unlikely.
Black Hand simply outlined the situation.
Raise the price? That’s just the most basic approach.
For now, the part of him related to the Ancient God had been fused with the bloodline of the Titan Divine Race and the Lord of Hell, which is why he still counts as normal.
But they still knowingly drag their heels about the revival of the Ancient God; they’re either confident or incredibly foolish.
The native forces certainly knew about the Lords’ activities, after all, many native Heroes serve under the Lords, and it’s impossible that every native Hero is completely loyal to their Lord; many are probably betting on it for the sake of their families, so their loyalty is definitely not high.
Qin Muye seemed to have discovered a blind spot and then suddenly realized—if this Ancient God were the progenitor of Magic Power, wouldn’t the entire Magic Continent be doomed?
After accepting this, Qin Muye began to consult on the matter.
Qin Muye’s expression turned grave; the Ancient God had always been reviving, just that previously the Rank 6 Magic Continent server couldn’t support the revival, leading to the current situation.
Qin Muye sighed; these natives were bold enough to meddle when the True Dragon Emperor and others began their pioneering work, likely allowing the Ancient God’s forces to grow out of spite towards the group of Lords.
Qin Muye suddenly realized there could be a trap, but could the Ancient God actually run to another server to settle scores with them?
Qin Muye even speculated that before this, the Magic Continent may not have been Rank 6, but rather, it had a higher rank which fell due to the Ancient God’s siphoning, and after the death of the Ancient God, the Rank 6 server couldn’t support its revival, thus it had to engage in sneaky tactics.
Although his bloodline was a bit mixed, it was still called the Human Race Bloodline, but at least he had the identity of the Crimson Ancestor, an Ancient God.
Naturally, this information leaked out, which could be considered the natives’ infiltration into the Lord’s affairs.
His Human Race Bloodline held immense growth potential and space, especially since this Ancient God and his Crimson Ancestor ability bore striking similarities, which could be leveraged to further unearth his potential.
Of course, he had something related to the Ancient God, which was the Crimson Ancestor ability he obtained after absorbing the Crimson Source into his body.
He wouldn’t make any money from it, and it would only strengthen the Ancient God faction’s power; it was simply a lose-lose situation.
As the Crimson Ancestor, he naturally knew the power that this identity held.
Upon hearing this, Qin Muye was also speechless, knowing without thinking that the idiot was likely already dead.
It was as if they were two of the same species but not the same individual.
If it wasn’t for the fact the Lords lacked the power of resurrection, otherwise, they would definitely be fourth-disaster-level players.
If not for the exceptionally sweet and juicy oranges, there would be little mention of it, hence it’s referred to as intelligence, but in reality, there’s a lack of detailed information due to limited space.
If the Ancient God hadn’t resurrected, that would be one thing, but if it had, both the bloodline and the two Divine Artifacts would seem to belong to the Ancient God.
Therefore, even if the server were to be destroyed, he could still make use of the Server Transfer Token to leave the Magic Continent server with ease, and the natives? That’s none of his concern.
Because the Magic Continent server is only Rank 7, there wouldn’t be a chance of resurrection if it were really Rank 9.
Besides, his territory has the second-generation Divine King, Sea Goddess, and Ocean God, all Titan Divine Race beings starting from Rank 8. Even without the power of Divine Authority reducing their strength significantly, they’re still beings of Rank 8.
Orange Village was a small village from thousands of years ago that was wiped out due to an accident.
This intelligence really wasn’t easy to gather; it took nearly three days to find.
This thing… Qin Muye also had it; the Magic Power in his body was somewhat similar to it.
These three elements—Crimson, Hell, and Titan—all contributed equally to his strength; otherwise, it would result in one overpowering the other rather than a complete fusion like now.
This time, due to the fusion with another server leading to an advancement to Rank 7, it prompted these restless Ancient Gods to directly show their hostility.
If he really went after them, who knows when it would be; perhaps by then, these Lords will have developed to Ranks 7, 8, or 9, making it uncertain who would be settling scores with whom.
As for what kind of certainty they had, it was probably those who had already got in touch with the Ancient God faction and even thought they could control the situation.
