Chapter 614 Everyone Training
Unaware of the intensifying battle between the human cultivators and the Demi-Gods, the Sects of the various factions continued to go on in their daily lives without too much worry. Even though they haven’t received any news of what was going on in the Land of the Gods the Sects were confident in their victory. The reason for their confidence was that not only did they send out their True Monarchs but the news of the Legendary Clans created by incarnations of the Strongest Mortal Soul joining in the fray made them feel like defeat was impossible.
Still, despite not knowing that things were going badly in the Land Of the Gods the various Sects actually strengthened their defenses. After Ren had defeated each Sect they learned of their shortcomings and improved upon them. Not knowing when Ren might return to once again ‘have a little fun with them’, the various sects in the Eastern region had strengthened their Sect level arrays. 𝑜𝑣𝘭.𝘯𝑡
The disciples of every Sect Ren and Fang Mu had visited were burning with a passion to retrain themselves. They might be unable to reach the ludicrous level Ren has shown them, as they didn’t even know what his cultivation realm was. Even now they were unable to get a clear picture of just how strong Ren was, all they knew was that he was ridiculously strong and that it defied all reason.
On the other hand, Fang Mu had a detectable cultivation realm, and his abilities were indeed above most geniuses but that was it. When they saw him fight, it was not so unreachable that they couldn’t overcome him with a little more effort.
So now with renewed determination, each Sect had not only strengthened their defenses, but even the quality of their disciples have increased. After their battle with Ren and Fang Mu, the various Sects in the Eastern region were actually improving better than before.
It wasn’t just the various Sects that were improving, but Ren himself was also continuously strengthening himself. While waiting for the Void Sect’s tournament to happen, Ren was training with his past incarnations.
After all these years of training in his soul realm, Ren has finally grown strong enough to face the people in the top hundreds with his soul realm. He could still remember when he first encountered his past incarnations and his soul realm, he was considered to be the weakest incarnation. Even his past incarnation Demon Lord Kretos was just in the top ten thousand according to the strength of his past incarnations.
Even though he was the weakest his growth was one of the best among all the Strongest Mortal Soul’s reincarnations. Still, with his current power, he wasn’t strong enough to fight an Ancient God much less the ORIGIN.
With Ren’s current strength the best he could do was to fight an Old God by himself, but winning would depend on which Old God he was facing. Overall his improvement was good but not enough.
Since the Demi-Gods have started rampaging it was only a matter of time before everything breaks. This was just the start, even if the New Gods join in later it wouldn’t be too much of a problem. The real problem will only start once the Old Gods join the fray.
The Old Gods were the beings created by the supposedly perfect Ancient Gods. These Old Gods were beings that were hidden within a universe, they live in their own pocket dimension and they were larger than several large planets combined.
The weaker old Gods could control two to three laws of the universe to a certain extent. The stronger ones could control numerous laws of the universe to a certain extent as well.
…
In the beginning, all old Gods were of equal strength, but now there were two types of old Gods the weak ones and the strong ones. The reason for the sudden decrease in strength of a lot of Old Gods was because of the death of the Ancient Gods that created them. Back then the original incarnation had killed numerous Gods including the Ancient Gods.
So it was possible that the moment the Old Gods become crazed, they would do everything in their power to find and kill the current incarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul.
The Old Gods hate the Strongest Mortal Soul with every fiber of their being, their very souls burn with hatred for the Strongest Mortal Soul. Yet despite their immense hatred they never directly acted against the Strongest Mortal Soul, they would only do something if ordered by an Ancient God or the ORIGIN. The reason for this reluctance to attack is because of their fear, the terror of the Strongest Mortal Soul.
Their hatred might be strong, but their fear of the Strongest Mortal Soul was even stronger. A lot of them were there when the original incarnation of the Strongest Mortal Soul charged toward the army of Gods. He killed New Gods and Old Gods like they were ants, and even the Ancient Gods had problems keeping up. If not for the intervention of the ORIGIN, all the Gods might have died back then.
That fear might have kept them back for this long, but once they entered a crazed state that fear will no longer stop them. In Ren’s current condition he would not be able to stop a swarm of Old Gods by himself. That wasn’t the worst part, the worst part is if the Ancient Gods started moving.
…
An Ancient God was a being created by the ORIGIN to be supposedly perfect in every way and become a companion for the lonely ORIGIN. In the end, they were considered failures since they were not perfect and they were not a true match of the ORIGIN. Still, even if they were called failures their strength was the real deal.
Unlike Old Gods that could control the laws of the universe to a certain extent, Ancient Gods were the very laws themselves. Each Ancient God governs over a law of a universe, such as time, space, light, and such. When they die the laws that they governed become open source, ownerless laws.
At first, other Ancient Gods thought that gaining these ownerless laws would grant them more power, as for the Old and New Gods they thought that once they gain an ownerless law they could become as powerful as an Ancient God. Unfortunately, they were wrong, if one tries to absorb the power of an ownerless law, they lose their sense of self and become part of that law.
…
Now if the Ancient Gods join in this insanity, the very fabric of reality might break and those too weak to resist will cease to exist.
Still, Ren was not that worried about that, since based on what the original incarnation said to him the chances of an Ancient God joining this early was not possible. Even if one were to suddenly join in, the original incarnation had a plan on how to deal with one Ancient God. So now all Ren had to do was get stronger and wait for the final battle. Of course, aside from that, he could do whatever he wanted.
