High-Level Martial Era

Chapter 1214: Chapter 570: Ancient Domain Master

“Hmph!”

“Who cares who he is.” Xuan Yang Heavenly God coldly snorted, “Even if he has the recognition of the saint, who knows if it’s true or false. This is our world; if the holy spirit wants to force us to bow our heads, that’s a dream.”

“I also do not wish to be a servant.” Ice Ming Heavenly God nodded heavily.

For countless years, they have been the leaders of this world; how could they be willing to be subordinate to others?

Only Fog Heavenly God remained silent.

“Fog, do you intend to surrender?” Xuan Yang Heavenly God looked towards Fog Heavenly God.

Fog Heavenly God forced a slight smile, suddenly his eyes lit up: “He’s here.”

The assembled gods all noticed it too.

Buzz~

A mysterious ripple descended as a light beam shone from outside the hall onto the high platform at the end of the temple. Then, a silver robe figure exuding a vast aura slowly appeared on the high platform.

His aura was majestic, surpassing any heavenly god present.

His aura was even more mysterious, seemingly an incarnation of this vast world, causing all the gods present to instinctively feel a sense of subservience.

“Is this the Dominator’s successor?”

“What a powerful aura.”

“Why do I feel as though this world is unshakable?” Most of the gods murmured, the initial dissatisfaction in their hearts dissipating invisibly.

Mysteriously, that silver-robed figure seemed destined to be their leader?

“Him?”

“Is he the foreign True God we encountered before? Such powerful life breath.”

“He’s completely changed; I almost couldn’t recognize him. Could he have ascended to Heavenly God?” The thirty-odd gods who had previously clashed with Xuan Yang Heavenly God and Li Yuan were dumbfounded.

Though Li Yuan’s life breath had drastically changed, his soul aura remained the same.

Once a rival, an enemy, within a few years, he had suddenly become the Dominator’s successor?

“All gods, listen to the order.” A deep, indifferent voice suddenly echoed in the temple.

Also resounded in the hearts of those present, causing their hearts to tighten subconsciously.

“Li Yuan Heavenly God, through numerous trials, has finally become the Dominator’s successor.” The deep voice continued.

In the Hundred Clans of the Ancient Domain, he had never shown just his voice and consciousness; his true body had never appeared.

Therefore, even those gods who had fought Li Yuan didn’t know that the purple beast was the holy spirit.

“By the order of the Dominator, from today onwards, Li Yuan Heavenly God is the leader of the Hundred Clans of our Ancient Domain.” The holy spirit’s voice was cold, “Are you not going to greet the Domain Master?”

The gods hesitated, instinctively looking towards the three great gods.

Fog Heavenly God remained silent, Ice Ming Heavenly God’s expression showed a slight internal struggle.

Thud~

Unexpectedly, Xuan Yang Heavenly God, who had previously vowed not to submit, suddenly knelt on one knee, a trace of excitement in his voice, and respectfully said, “Xuan Yang, greets the Domain Master.”

The group of gods was even more stunned, and Ice Ming Heavenly God was similarly astonished.

Just now, Xuan Yang didn’t say it like that.

Only Fog Heavenly God had an expression of ’I knew you would’, and without hesitating, he too knelt on one knee: “Fog, greets the Domain Master!”

Clatter~ Seeing this, the other gods no longer insisted, one after another kneeling to pay their respects: “Greets the Domain Master.”

Gnashing his teeth, Ice Ming Heavenly God also knelt to pay his respects.

“Everyone, please rise.” Li Yuan’s voice was powerful, looking at the one hundred thirty-three heavenly gods below, feeling a tinge of sentiment.

Throughout the Divine Realm, it is very rare that so many heavenly gods would submit to someone beneath a Divine King.

“I just had some luck to become the Dominator’s successor.” Li Yuan said, “In terms of years of cultivation, you are all far older than me, and in the future, many things will likely rely on your support.”

“Domain Master is joking.” Xuan Yang Heavenly God, wearing golden armor, smiled brightly: “When Domain Master was in the True God Realm, his strength was already so formidable; now having achieved heavenly godhood, he probably far surpasses us.”

“Indeed.” Fog Heavenly God also laughed heartily, “Being able to follow the Domain Master is our honor.”

They were willing to submit so quickly, at least superficially showing great respect.

Besides the words of the holy spirit, the most important factor was the mysterious aura emanating from Li Yuan, which made them instinctively willing to submit.

And then there was the power Li Yuan had previously demonstrated.

“Xuan Yang Heavenly God, Fog Heavenly God, Ice Ming Heavenly God.” Li Yuan’s gaze swept over the three, smiling, “I heard from the holy spirit that you three are the three leaders of the Hundred Clans of the Ancient Domain, right?”

“Not daring.” All three responded respectfully.

“From today on, you will continue to be the leaders of the Hundred Clans, your position only beneath mine.” Li Yuan said.

“Yes.” The three gods finally breathed a sigh of relief; what they feared most was that Li Yuan would come and immediately cleanse them to consolidate his power.

But what they didn’t know.

From start to finish, Li Yuan never took them to heart, nor regarded them as opponents; power? Li Yuan understood well that in this vast universe, personal strength is crucial.

Strong as a Divine Emperor, one could establish a Divine Court alone.

Why do those Divine Emperors care little for the miscellaneous affairs of their Dominion territories? Because it is not important.

As long as the Divine Emperors live, the territory remains stable… if the Divine Emperors die, no matter how well the territory is managed, its usefulness is limited.

In Li Yuan’s heart, his pursuit was to become a God Emperor Realm, to become a great being like the legendary Supreme Divine Emperor Hong Ying.

Even… the mythical Eternal Realm!

With the Eternal Realm as the highest pursuit, the Supreme Divine Emperor as the practical goal, and achieving the Divine King as the target… aspiring high, yet remaining grounded.

“Furthermore, some rules and orders within the Ancient Domain will remain unchanged.” Li Yuan said, “But in the future, I will arrange some outsiders to venture into the Ancient Domain World; they will only be in the Semi Divine Realm, Void God Realm, and you should look after them somewhat.”
