So when Keke was born, the dragon clan was really on tenterhooks. The ancestral dragon and a group of half-ancestral dragon kings kept a close watch on her almost all the time and dared not sleep at all.
Later, to be on the safe side, the ancestral dragon intervened and delayed Keke's birth. After sleeping for a thousand years and observing for a long time, it was confirmed that Keke was in the form of a snow-white little beast, without showing any dragon form. It was believed that this would not endanger the survival of the dragon race and would not wipe out several major races. Only then did the ancestral dragon feel a little relieved.
Feeling apologetic towards Keke, the old ancestor dragon took advantage of the opportunity when the young heroes arrived on Dragon Island to awaken Keke.
In the end, Keke met Xiao Chen and followed him, leaving Dragon Island to explore the world.
Ke Ke's parents did not object to the old dragon's actions and accepted Ke Ke's rebirth after a thousand years of slumber, also because they did not want to implicate the dragon clan.
Otherwise, several major lineages of the dragon race might have truly perished, and countless dragons would have perished without even realizing it.
Ke's mother herself experienced this tragedy at birth, so of course she didn't want it to happen again.
They hated the ancient powerful figure who cursed the dragon race even more!
"It's quite nice that she's in the form of a snow-white little beast, a member of the Heaven-Defying Clan." The old ancestral dragon stroked Keke, his expression kind.
The little guy squinted his eyes, his big face beaming with a smile.
On the other side, after a conversation among the ancestral gods, Yanhuang concluded by saying:
"Since this is a sermon, we have some insights on our cultivation path that we can share with you."
Immediately, everyone perked up, focusing intently and not daring to be distracted for even a moment.
The semi-ancestors were even more serious.
Leaving aside Xiao Chen, Tianwaitian, Renwairen, the Golden Divine Halberd, and the Black Iron Seal, even Yingxiong and the three Tree Man Old Kings, as beings at the Tongtian Realm of the Death Realm, listened attentively to the Ancestral God's sermon and felt that they had benefited greatly.
Afterwards, the Old Ancestor Dragon, the Mysterious Old Farmer, Mo Xiaowang, and the Mark of Martial Arts each recounted their respective Great Dao and magical techniques.
No one held back; everyone shared their knowledge generously.
Several ancestral gods also explained in simple terms the difficulties and obstacles at each stage of cultivation.
With their insightful perspectives, even a few words from them are enough to deeply move people.
Everyone who heard it was both excited and thrilled.
The transmission of the Dharma by the six great ancestral gods is a blessing they have accumulated over many lifetimes.
Some cultivators even had an epiphany on the spot, their cultivation level soared, and their realms broke through, attracting countless envious glances.
A few days later, the sermon came to an end.
Xiao Chen and the other half-ancestors, along with the elders of the divine village, stepped forward to inquire about the ancestral gods' future plans.
"We are preparing to enter the central region to search for an ancient demon city that is completely unclaimed," said the mysterious old farmer who survived the previous civilization, glancing at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen suddenly realized.
"The Ancient Demon City?"
Cao Ya stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and suddenly spoke:
"Have you ever considered what would happen if the other world entered the world of death, and the ancestral gods were to come and hunt down the survivors of Kyushu, as well as the divine villages belonging to the descendants of Kyushu...?"
"What will they do then?"
Upon hearing this, the expressions of the five ancestral gods—Yanhuang, the Old Ancestor Dragon, the Mysterious Old Farmer, Mo Xiaowang, and the Mark of Martial Arts—all became solemn.
"Surely not?" the mysterious old farmer hesitated. "Among the native creatures of the Death World, there are top-tier experts. Would they allow an army from another world to invade?"
"No need for a large army! Just a group of ancestral gods will suffice. If... you should know that there are plenty of stone men in other worlds," Yanhuang said in a deep voice.
The elders of the village also sensed something was wrong and hurriedly consulted several ancestral gods on how to deal with the potential crisis.
There's no reason for them to complain, since they are descendants of powerful figures from the Nine Provinces, naturally viewed with hostility by the other world, and are also on the opposing side of the other world.
It's fine if they haven't discovered it yet, but once the other world does, they will definitely launch a thunderous attack.
"How about we go to other worlds?" The old dragon frowned.
"This is bad! Among all the heavens, only the Primordial Heaven and the World of Death can make the other world hesitate. The passage to the Primordial Heaven is broken, making it difficult for us to go up. The only option is actually the World of Death." Mo Xiaowang rejected the old ancestral dragon's suggestion.
"Moreover, going to those worlds will also bring them disaster." Yanhuang's voice was low. Only in the world of death, where there are powerful beings at the level of Stone King, can the other world be wary, so as not to bring great calamity to the world of death.
"Actually, the best choice is still the Primordial Heavenly Realm. Throughout history, some of our ancestral gods and semi-ancestral beings have gone to the Primordial Heavenly Realm, where our strongest being—King Pangu—is stationed!" the mysterious old farmer sighed.
"It's a pity the passage is cut off, and we can no longer go to the Primordial Heaven Realm." Martial Mark said regretfully. He guessed that it was probably a powerful figure from the Primordial Heaven Realm who took the initiative to cut it off.
The experts of the Primordial Heavenly Realm are unlikely to want to get involved in the war between the Nine Provinces and the other world.
Furthermore, there are also powerful figures guarding that primordial heaven in the other world.
According to some sources, in recent history, the Otherworld faction has suppressed the Kyushu faction.
Thinking about it that way, the world of death, which I've never been to in another world, is actually better.
"However, what if one day in the future, the other world really does invade the realm of the dead..."
"The coordinates of the Netherworld must exist in the other world!"
As several ancestral gods, a group of semi-ancestral gods, and the elders of the divine village were all frowning and racking their brains for a solution, Cao Ya suddenly smiled and said:
"Gentlemen, I have a solution."
Everyone's eyes lit up, and they urged each other to ask questions.
"After all is said and done, the realm of the dead is the best choice."
Cao Ya said slowly:
“The deepest part of the Death Realm is an ancient battlefield, which is extremely dangerous. Even the Ancestral Gods dare not be careless. Although it can deter other worlds, it is also a dangerous place for us.”
“Especially in the Nine Provinces and the Four Directions World, as well as within the Divine Village, there are many ordinary people and cultivators at the first few realms.”
Everyone nodded.
Otherwise, venturing into the deeper layers would be a way to intimidate the otherworld.
"Since we can't go to the depths, nor can we go to other worlds, and as for the Primordial Heaven Realm at the center of all heavens, the path is gone, so we can't go up there either."
Cao Ya grinned as he spoke:
"The facts are clear and obvious."
"Our options are actually quite limited."
Xiao Chen's heart skipped a beat, and he exclaimed:
"Cao Yazhanzu, you don't mean to..."
"You guessed it?" Cao Ya laughed. "Since we can't go anywhere else, we'll just have to work our hardest to manage the outer regions of this world of death."
"What otherworldly ancestral gods? Even if stone men and supreme ancestral gods come, we'll make them come in sideways and leave lying down!"
"Unless the Stone King Ancestor from another world makes a move!"
Cao Ya spoke with a murderous aura and high fighting spirit.
Everyone was stunned for a moment.
Several ancestral gods frowned in thought.
Can managing the outer area of the Dead Realm truly withstand the slaughter of the otherworldly ancestral gods and contend against the highly likely appearance of otherworldly stone men?
