Chapter 1230: Chapter 1233: Divine Mountain Suppressed!_1 Chapter 1230: Chapter 1233: Divine Mountain Suppressed!_1 Lusman’s proposal gained unanimous support.
Right now, everyone was in the same boat – if one couldn’t run, neither could the others.
If other Lords of the Abyss were to arrive, all present would bear the responsibility.
If the opposition began to kill indiscriminately, no one could escape.
In such a case, it would be better to sacrifice the Five-Colored Divine Mountain and seal the people underneath.
Even if the Lord of the Abyss were to arrive, they would have an excuse.
If it’s not the Lord of the Abyss but the Ghost Face King who’s alive down there, then this Ghost Face King would likely be trapped under this mountain indefinitely.
…
The depth of the earth’s crust had reached its end, and not even the Ghost Face King could escape by tunneling through the earth.
If he tried to escape from above, could he withstand the weight of a whole star system?
That was simply a joke.
Aside from the ruler, there should be no one who could do it.
No matter what, the Divine Mountain had to be suppressed.
Under everyone’s watch, the four individuals from the Eight Great Hammers raised the Five-Colored Divine Mountain and covered it from above.
As it descended, the Five-Colored Divine Mountain grew larger and larger until it turned into a mountain peak the size of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, pressing heavily onto the Earth Veins.
But after the Divine Mountain was pressed down, they could still clearly feel tremors coming from under the mountain peak, as if the people being suppressed were extremely unwilling and wanted to break free.
They were all inexplicably horrified.
Lusman furrowed his brows and said, “This is simply horrific.
The will to survive of the people down there is tremendous.
Even under the weight of a star system, they wish to turn over.
If they manage to do that, we are done for!”
Zhang Huang also chimed in: “It’s not permissible, we cannot allow them to break out.
Does anyone have any other methods to suppress them?
Just permanently seal this place instead.”
God King and his men glanced at each other, momentarily lost for words.
Lusman and his associates exerted all their strength, not only delivering their strongest strikes but also using the Divine Mountain, an inheritance from the ruler, to suppress the opposition.
There was no way they could play any more cards.
But to continue suppressing with the Divine Mountain, ordinary products would definitely not suffice.
The best option was a domain-related armament, using domain power to continue the suppression, to completely seal off this place and prevent any chance of their revival.
The God King, Nine Ghost King, and Tree God King, looked at each other, and under pressure from Lusman and his associates, they begrudgingly made a large expenditure.
The three practically emptied out their wealth and traded for a treasure within their race.
The treasure was a High Grade Comprehension Armament, the long river of gravity!
This domain armament was highly suitable for the Five-Colored Divine Mountain – they both had gravity suppression effects.
They could incorporate the gravity of the Long River into the Five-Colored Divine Mountain.
When the Long River Armament was traded out by the God King and finally placed on the Five-Colored Divine Mountain, the weight of the Divine Mountain seemed to double, from the size of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau to that of Mount Taishan.
But its weight was, in fact, five times that of before!
Looking at the Divine Mountain, God King couldn’t help but sigh: “The current Five-Colored Divine Mountain combined with the Long River doubles its power, nearly matching a Top Quality Domain Armament.
Such a precious item is rare in the world, but what a pity it’s being used to suppress people.”
Lusman patted God King’s shoulder: “Don’t worry about these external things.
We, the Eight Great Hammers, also suffered a heavy loss this time.
We lost the Five-Colored Divine Mountain and the flying palace.
We need some compensation from you, old pal.”
The Nine Ghost King and Tree God King also voiced their grievances.
God King smiled bitterly, “Give me some time, my friends.
We will each disband for now.
As long as the Lords of the Abyss do not come for us, I will slowly repay everyone’s loss.
Rest assured, even if I can’t, my ancestor, Ruler Qingtian, can certainly handle it.”
Upon hearing God King mentioning Lord Qingtian, the others didn’t press him too hard.
They reluctantly agreed, hoping that God King would keep his word in the future to compensate them for their loss.
They finally left the end of the earthly palace after repeatedly confirming that the Five-Colored Divine Mountain had become immovable.
They were simply hoping that the Lords of the Abyss would not come for them, that they could dodge the bullet.
The Lords of the Abyss indeed did not target them, which progressively eased their anxiety.
It seemed that the person living in the abyss must be the Lord of Hatred.
Otherwise, the other lords would have arrived long ago.
Although this matter might have been a false alarm, now that the Divine Mountain was established, it was essentially irreversible.
Everyone had no choice but to accept it.
Even though they didn’t get any treasure from the Ghost Face King, they finally eliminated a major concern from their hearts.
That, by itself, was worthwhile.
The Imperial Clan even checked the Dimensional Universe status of the Ghost Face King and the Lord of Hatred, but their current status was unknown, as they couldn’t trace their whereabouts.
Helpless, they could only wait patiently, passing time bit by bit, ten years, twenty years, fifty years, a hundred years.
These God Kings, who had virtually infinite lifespans, gradually forgot about this matter.
Only God King and the others made a promise – a two-thousand-year deadline!
During this time, everyone stayed on the Witch Star to cultivate and wait for the situation to unfold.
If there were no changes within two thousand years, then they were safe.
By that time, God King would hold a grand feast to celebrate and take revenge on the Bai family who had betrayed them.
The Bai family, caught between the Ghost Face King and the Imperial Clan, chose the Ghost Face King.
God King swore to make the Bai family pay the price when the time was right!
But before that, everyone had to keep a low profile and wait for confirmation before taking action.
This dramatic event was gradually forgotten by people.
Very few people knew what had happened in the depths of the underground palace, and Ghost Face King, who once monopolized the nine god kings, vanished from the public eye, becoming a forgotten legend.
The Bai family and the Imperial Clan, both involved in the event, withdrawn from public view after the incident and never mentioned it again.
Only the Imperial Clan would often send a few members who were absolutely trustworthy to guard the Divine Mountain and observe every change under the mountain.
Of course, this task couldn’t be undertaken by God King.
Qing Tian and Jue Tian were the best choices.
Especially Jue Tian, who bore a deep grudge against Lin Zhen.
He volunteered to guard the Divine Mountain, and even built a hut there later on, vowing to not leave until the Ghost Face King’s death was confirmed.
God King could understand Jue Tian’s feelings.
Since he had volunteered to keep watch, let him do it.
In God King’s view, there was no one more reliable than Jue Tian.
The days went by like this.
Jue Tian stood guard at the end of the earthly palace, becoming a mountain guard.
