Rise of the Demon God

"Previously, you used to be only focused on fighting. However, it seems you've grown quite a lot... You even went so far to help me..."

Long Chen was the Ancestral God. And the Ancestral God was Long Chen. Both were one and the same. Long Chen had seen how the Demonic Ancestor tried to help him sincerely.

After seeing the past memories, Long Chen was surprised at how much this guy had changed. However, this was a good change.

"I suppose that's enough punishment for you. For helping me so much in this life, I'll remove your punishment."

Long Chen waved his hand. In the room, the Heavenly Laws itself were twisted as a new body was created out of thin air.

The body was no different than the real body of the Demonic Ancestor in the past. In fact, it felt even stronger.

For someone who had created the entire universe, it was easy to create a body.

As the Demonic Ancestor's new body materialized, Long Chen pulled out the Demonic Ancestor's soul from the Ancient Myriad Beast's body.

"It's time you go where you belong."

The Demonic Ancestor came to life, his body completely merging with his soul to perfection. It was as if he had never died in the first place.

"I... I have so many questions," the Demonic Ancestor muttered. His mind was filled with questions about how Long Chen was the same person as his teacher.

"Unfortunately, I have to protect my home now. I also have to keep the promise I made from you!" he spoke, turning his attention to the enemies, looking through space. "After I return, we'll have a long talk."

"Just when I said you've changed, you're again going for bloodshed?" Long Chen asked, his expressions calm yet surreal.

"I'll handle it." He stood up. The Ancient Myriad Beast jumped down, changing form once again, returning to the form of a Celestial Wolf, the Divine Entity that had once shaken the entire universe with its war against the Rainbow Phoenix.

Long Chen stepped forward, a Spatial Portal opening up on its own as per his will.

The Ancient Myriad Beast also followed inside. Although the Demonic Ancestor was stunned, he also followed suit.

****

The Godly Beasts and Heavenly Warriors had surrounded the Demonic Realm.

But instead of being scared, the Demonic Warriors came out, accompanied by the Generals and the Demonic Emperor.

None knew if they were going to return alive, but none cared either. They were more eager for this battle.

The Rainbow Phoenix and the Heavenly Emperor focused on the Demonic Emperor. Once the leader itself was gone, nothing was left in the war.

"With the two of us, you have no chance of survival. You still have an opportunity. Hand over that old bastard's soul. Once he's gone, we'll return to the status quo. Things would be like before...." the Heavenly Emperor once again gave an opportunity to the old man.

For him, the Demonic Ancestor's soul was more important as it was a bigger threat to them than the Demonic Emperor.

"You want to know where he is? Ask my sword!" The Demonic Emperor spoke as he attacked without the slightest hesitation.

"Foolish decision," the Heavenly Emperor sighed as he fought back.

The Rainbow Phoenix also joined the battle, her divine flames burning the space itself. In fact, within a short time, it was clear which side had an advantage.

The Rainbow Phoenix kept attacking, her attack getting stronger and stronger with each passing second.

However, amidst the attack, she suddenly froze, looking into an empty direction. Fear became evident on her face as if every particle of her being was warning her.

Without finishing her attack, she turned around. She opened a Spatial Portal and ran away at the first instant.

Seeing the Rainbow Phoenix escape, the Heavenly Emperor and the Demonic Emperor were both left stunned.

They exchanged puzzled glances, unable to comprehend why the Rainbow Phoenix would retreat so suddenly when one side had an advantage. The onlookers in the Beast realm were equally bewildered, their curiosity piqued by the turn of events.

As the Rainbow Phoenix disappeared, the battle had temporarily come to a half due to confusion. However, the Heavenly Emperor issued a command to continue the war until the entire Demon Realm was annihilated.

The warriors on both sides obeyed their orders, determined to fulfill their duty. The Demonic Emperor, still baffled by the Rainbow Phoenix's sudden retreat, couldn't help but wonder if there was a hidden reason behind it.

However, now wasn't the time to think about it. This was an opportunity for him! If he could take advantage of this opportunity, this was for the best.

"Die for me!" He raised his sword, bellowing with a resounding battle cry, slashing down. A powerful energy surged from the Demonic Emperor's sword, sending shockwaves through the battlefield.

The warriors on both sides were caught off guard by the sudden burst of power, many getting hurt despite being far away.

"You don't have what it takes for me to die!" The Heavenly Emperor spoke as he responded in a similar manner, his sword slicing through the space.

Both the Divine Beings had used their stronger attack. Even before the attacks met, the space in the surrounding was destroyed, turning into a void.

Both sides expected a loud explosion when the attacks met. In that moment, both the Demonic Warriors and the Heavenly Warriors created a distance from the attack, as much as possible to not get caught.

Unfortunately, the powerful impact they were expecting didn't come. Instead, both the attacks simply disappeared, akin to being devoured by someone.

Where the attacks were supposed to meet, a human figure appeared, not even a speck of dust on his clothes.

Next to the human, there was another man with Demoniac Characteristics. Next to the human was a Divine Wolf, in whose presence many Godly Beast Kings felt their bloodlines suppressed.

"Ancestor?" The Demonic Emperor muttered, looking at the person next to Long Chen.

"You're alive?" The Heavenly Emperor asked, looking at Long Chen.
