  Zhong Yue's heart was thumping in shock as the ancient godly spirits emerged within the celestial temples one after another in the West Barren. The divine weapons were awakened, and the chants of worship resounded throughout all of the celestial races, powering the divine weapons to unleash their full power!

  Even the celestial races that had waned, and had only fewer than a hundred clansmen, had a godly spirit and divine weapons!

  It was truly out of everyone's imaginations. The whole West Barren was filled with thousands of godly spirits, thousands of divine weapons, filling up the whole place!

  Such godly auras were immense, suppressing on the livings in the West Barren in fear and even the Qi Practitioners could feel their arcane energy, Yuan Shen and psyche being suppressed and some were even partially sealed!

  Zhong Yue stifled an agonized groan, he could not fly in the sky anymore and crashed into the ground, creating a hole in the earth's surface.

  This was the chain reaction that Gu Hongzi was talking about!

  A spark of fire that lit the whole grasslands ablaze!

  Furthermore, it was not only the West Barren that was set to burn, but even the East Barren, North Barren, South Barren, Great Wilderness, and as half of the world was also set alight, even the Eastern Sea

  saw the signs of being set on fire.

  The dragon race's reaction then caused the demon race to be triggered as well!

  The whole Ancestral Star was filled with godly auras; the many gods that had found their peace and lived a hermit life had no choice but to stand out. The godly spirits, demon spirits, divine weapons, and even the saint weapons were all galvanized!

  The scenery was spectacular, and not a single word could Zhong Yue describe what he saw!

  He was in awe, and he mumbled stunned, "It's only a woman I just stole, is there really for all of this.…"

  The whole Ancestral Star was now like a pot of boiling oil, the tiniest spark of fire could bring a world war that involved every single existing races!

  Does our Great Wilderness have the capital like the others?

  Zhong Yue winked their eyes and looked over at the Great Wilderness. He thought, Now, the celestials, monsters, demons, and dragons have shown their strengths and powers, warning the world of their existence and strength. If the Great Wilderness Swords Gate doesn't have the same prowess to match them, all of the other races will look down on us. And worse, they will come after the human race. If anything ever happens, the first ones to be destroyed will be the humans….

  …

  Great Wilderness, Swords Gate.

  Jun Sixie locked down her brows, and she stood on the golden summit and gazed at the West Barren, she then shifted her sights to the East Barren where a monster god's imposing aura emerged and also toward the South Barren where a celestial being holding the saint weapon Eight Dragons Heaven Suppression Cauldron and unleashed its full power.

  The Great Wilderness is not strong enough. Although there are still the Four Symbol Banners, these four divine banners would not react to the other godly spirits and divine weapons. They wouldn't rise to guard the Swords Gate and Great Wilderness without actual attacks or invasions taking place.

  Jun Sixie heaved a long breath, and her countenance became filled with sorrow as she thought, With only the Great Boundless Divine Sword and the first headmaster's godly spirit, we can't match them at all…

  Just as she thought about it, the Great Boundless Divine Sword quivered violently and flew out of her hands, shooting right up into the high sky.

  Jun Sixie raised her head, and she was met with the first headmaster's godly spirit. The voices of worship then increased in volume and surrounded the godly spirit.

  “Underground palace, open!”

  The headmaster's godly spirit said in a trembling voice. He lifted the divine sword slightly above the ground and thrust it into the ground. The palace on the golden summit then slowly open in the middle, revealing the underground world inside of the mountain body. Inside of it was the hilt of the gigantic godly sword.

  This was the hilt of the godly sword that was pierced into the heart in the Devil Soul Forbidden Land!

  The first headmaster then flicked his finger on the sword's hilt. Immediately, an appalling Sword Qi and godly aura pierced through the firmament, and the figure of the godly sword appeared in the sky.

  This godly sword was so strong that even the saint weapons of the other races were no match for it as if it were the king of all divine armaments!

  “This is…”

  Jun Sixie mumbled in shock, "How brash……"

  Indeed, the godly spirit of the first Swords Gate headmaster had just made an imprudent move. The Swords Gate didn't have a saint weapon nor a living god. Thus, the human race had the feeblest foundation out of all the factions.

  This godly sword didn't even belong to the Swords Gate, and it wasn't triggered by the chain reaction that just occurred. The first headmaster's godly spirit triggered it.

  Among all of those that have been triggered by the chain reaction, the strongest and most powerful one was none other than the godly sword in the Swords Gate underground. It was so strong that not even the dragon race's Coiling Dragon Sword and Zhong Li Celestial Race's Eight Dragons Heaven Suppression Cauldron could compete against it!

  This first headmaster's move was a warning — Although our Swords Gate had none of the saint weapons or the living gods, if you ever dare to invade the Great Wilderness, then I will trigger this sword and kill us all together!

  If that wasn't imprudent, then what was?

  Fine, if it's imprudent, then I'll let it be … Jun Sixie sighed, and she thought, At least, we can warn the other races and prevent them from invading us!

  In the West Barren, the Gu Diao Celestial Race and Xuan Su felt the godly auras. At a point, she nearly couldn't contain her godly aura as well. Fortunately, she was quick enough to suppress her godly aura from bursting out and kept her usual cover.

  If I had burst out my godly auras during this, I'd be exposed for sure, and death will be my only end! Xuan Su thought as her heart still pounded heavily, The Ancestral Star is really terrifying, it is even stronger than our insect planet, it is indeed the planet from where the Heavenly Monarchs originated. What a lively gathering party they have here, I wonder where the two brats are now; how sly and cunning, being able to slip away right under my nose!

  She was also feeling helpless, she couldn't use any of her deity powers, and if any of her activities were to exceed the level of a magnate, then the gods in the West Barren would have noticed her, and she would be killed without a doubt!

  She then thought, That brat can change many forms, I can't discern his origins at all. He said he is of the Zhu Jian Celestial Race, but now, it seems like the Zhu Jian Celestial Race is just one of his many forms. This makes it incredibly hard to find him. However….

  A frigid smile climbed onto the beautiful woman's face, and she mumbled softly, "You can hide, but can Gu Hongzi do the same? As long as I can catch Gu Hongzi, then your identity will reveal itself!"

  ……

  In the Xiao Mang Celestial Temple, Feng Xiaozhong, and the other Xiao Mang experts were suppressed close to the ground by the godly aura. They could not even move a single finger an inch above from the ground at all. Their hearts filled with fear and shock at the suppressive force.

  The chain reaction was incredibly dangerous, the trust was fragile, and a single moment of carelessness could bring a war that could wipe out more than half of the living beings in the Ancestral Star – a catastrophic war that not even the Xiao Mang Celestial Race could save themselves from!

  "What is going on? Why is the grand ancestor so angry that he even came out himself?"

  Chapter 417: God Fang |

  Feng Wuji and the others all trembled in fear. The emergence of the Xiao Mang Celestial Race's old ancestor caused tensions to rise tremendously as all the clans to tense up and release all the strength they had hidden in reser
ve. The situation had reached a tipping point, and with the slightest agitation, things could easily spiral out of control!

  But what caused Feng Wuji and the others from his clan to tremble even more was that the Xiao Mang grand ancestor willfully scanned through the territories of the other clans with blatant disregard!

  Searching through the land of the other clans was equivalent to an invasion, and when this happened, it was usually nothing less than a direct act of war!

  Cold sweat dripped down their foreheads as they all trembled in fear.

  If war erupted, they would be nothing more than ants in a hot pan filled with burning oil; they would have no chance of surviving this chaotic war among gods!

  However, what surprised them most was that the gods of the various clans out there restrained themselves from declaring war. Perhaps it was all because the Xiao Mang grand ancestor only went so far as scanning their land but not their celestial temples too. It seemed he was aware of the other grand ancestors' bottom line and knew that it was something shouldn't cross.

  Every clan had their secrets, and the most secret and sacred of these secrets were sheltered by the celestial temples. The core secrets were all hidden within their celestial temples, and if the Xiao Mang grand ancestor dared to search them, the gods and spirits of the many clans out there would definitely declare war against the Xiao Mang Celestial Race!

  If that were to happen, then even someone as strong as the Xiao Mang grand ancestor would not be able to survive.

  Time passed quickly, but to Feng Wuji and the others, it passed excruciatingly slowly.

  Although it all seemed like a marvelous spectacle to behold, to everyone on the Ancestral Star, it felt as if they had partially stepped into the gateway to the afterlife.

  After a long time, the Xiao Mang grand ancestor looked away, and his enormous body descended back into the sacred mountain.

  As he dove back into the mountain, the collapsed celestial palaces' debris floated in the air and combined together to return to the state before they were destroyed.

  With the Xiao Mang grand ancestor disappearance, the gods and godly spirits also followed suit to return to their resting places.

  They were the strongest existences by far and the core of the chain reaction. With them gone, the awakened godly spirits and divine weapons floating on the top of the many celestial temples dispersed their power and went back into slumber.

  First, it was the West Barren that returned to calm, then the east, north, south, followed by the Great Wilderness and finally, the dragons.

  After the dragons were the eight demonic barrens.

  With that, everything soon returned to normal, and things quietened down again.

  Relieved and with sweat soaking through their clothes, Feng Wuji and the others struggled to get back up on their feet as they felt devoid of strength.

  “Wuji, come and see me.”

  A message entered Feng Wuji's mind as the Xiao Mang grand ancestor's psyche entered it.

  Immediately, Feng Wuji entered the supreme celestial temple, then the tunnel behind the stone wall and as he got to the space underground. He asked respectfully, "What is with the anger, grand ancestor?"

  "There's a thief that stole the moon core and spirit," replied the grand ancestor as his body slowly turned into stone.

  If Zhong Yue were here, he would undoubtedly be greatly shocked as the Xiao Mang grand ancestor's situation was somewhat similar to Bo Xun's – both of them attempted to preserve the life force in their body!

  What was different between the two was that Bo Xun was an innate demonic spirit; his body was his spirit which could live on eternally, while the Xiao Mang grand ancestor's body and soul were two separate and distinct entities. Just from that, the Xiao Mang grand ancestor would never become an innate god.

  But after taking over the moon, he placed his Yuan Shen in the moon, replacing the moon spirit to receive the worship of the living beings instead. This was all for the chance to ascend into an innate god.

  But that was just a probability, and not even the grand ancestor could guarantee that he would succeed as no one had ever done this before.

  Thus, he would still have to siphon everything from the moon god and with that, he might be able to ascend as an innate god.

  Even if he couldn't, he could still use the immortal characteristic of the innate god to maintain the life force of his body to prevent it from dying.

  However, his plans were foiled with Zhong Yue robbing him of his moon core and moon god.

  And the worst part was that when the moon god fully ascended to an innate god, the grand ancestor would definitely be in trouble!

  Being targeted by an immortal innate god was definitely not a happy thing to happen!

  Besides, the one in the moon was not the moon spirit but his Yuan Shen. If this were to become known to the outside world, no one would worship the moon again!

  Without being able to siphon the power he needed from the moon spirit and being worshipped by the living to sustain himself, he would not be able to last for long!

  Even after petrifying himself in stone, his voice could still be heard in the underground as he said, "I looked around everywhere just now, and I couldn't locate the thief at all. I need you to help me trace this thief!"

  The news greatly shook Feng Wuji as even after he noticed the disappearance of the moon core and moon spirit, he never once thought that they were stolen!

  Come to think of it, everything was due to the thief that stole the moon core and moon spirit. Because of that, the Xiao Mang grand ancestor had to scan through everywhere, almost bringing about a massive disaster!

  That thief that stole the moon core and moon spirit was definitely brave, to say the least!

  "This thief left small traces behind, and I still couldn't discover his traces after searching everywhere."

  "But as long as this thief dares to take out the moon spirit or moon god, he will definitely be discovered by Qi Practitioners that possess moon spirits, and with that, we will be able to locate him! I want you to summon all the disciples with moon spirits to sense the presence of the moon core and moon spirit. If there are any movements, notify me immediately!"

  With hesitation, Feng Wuji asked, "Grand ancestor, how should I contact you?"

  The three-headed Pan Ao rock statue vibrated at Feng Wuji's question, and a god fang flew out and landed on Feng Wuji's palm.

  "With this god fang, I will be immediately notified when you activate it. Tell me where the location of the thief and I will kill that thief straight!"

  “But grand ancestor, what if this thief ran far away….”

  “I will be able to kill the thief as long as he is still under the shine of the moonlight!”

  After that, silence shrouded the surroundings while Feng Wuji walked away with the god fang as he thought, Who has such guts to steal the possession of our Xiao Mang Celestial Race? Not even a god can infiltrate our supreme celestial temple without being noticed. This thief must be a master of disguise. But it should be almost impossible to hide from our senses … Besides, Sha Qishan is here as well; his smelling ability is the strongest in the sea so he should be able to do quite well on the ground as well. But even he failed to detect anything. Wait, Xiao Chuzheng's words ... was he trying to lure me away?

  He stopped walking as coldness filled his body. Someone disguised as Xiao Chuzheng had managed to hoodwink him and Sha Qishan and lure them away while he entered the celestial temple to stole the moon core and moon god!

  After getting out of the supreme celestial temple, Feng Wuji checked around carefully, and the more he checked, the more shocked he become as he couldn't find out how the thief managed to infiltrate and leave the celestial temple so easily!

  The thief that stole the moon core and moon god left literally no traces behind!

  It seems like the only way to find him is to order the Qi Practitioners to sense the moon core and moon god! This is the only way! As soon as he took out the
moon core and moon god, his location will be exposed!

  He then thought again, The moon core and moon god has nothing to do with me, but I have already gained something incredible. This god fang is a very precious godly weapon!

  Meanwhile, Zhong Yue rushed towards the Great Wilderness quickly, and once he reached Lian Yun Mountain Ridge, he opened up his secret realms to let Gu Hongzi out. Zhong Yue then said in excitement, "Senior martial brother, don't you think that we should go and steal something from the other races? I am very familiar with the demons' land! There's also the monsters' land that you are familiar with! Together, we can steal all of their precious items!"

  Gu Hongzi, however, turned around and walked away as he said, "No thanks, you are too bold. I am afraid my luck will soon run if I stick with you!"

  Zhong Yue then quickly appealed, "Senior martial brother, please hold on!"

  He then said again, "The giant female insect turned into one of the Gu Diao Celestial Race called Xuan Su. You must be careful of her. She can't find me because she doesn't know my real identity, but she knows about you so she will definitely come for you."

  Gu Hongzi's heart tightened for a second, and he suddenly said with a laugh, "It is actually an honor to be pursued by a god, even if that god is an insect. Don't worry, she can't catch up to me, and she can't kill me!"

  He then flew away, and his voice echoed out, "I'd rather be pursued by a god then go on an adventure with you! Junior Martial Brother Zhong, listen to me, don't cause any more trouble!"

  Embarrassed, Zhong Yue scratched his head and murmured, "I'm pretty sure that I am not that scary, so why so afraid of me? Am I right, Xin Huo?"

  In his psyche ocean, Xin Huo nodded and said, "Isn't he a little bit too cowardly? I think you did quite a decent job. I am very fond of you!:
