Rise of the Demon God-Chapter 1565 Dread

Unfortunately, over his decision, their argument increased to the point that eventually, there was a battle in the endless space that lasted for an eternity, before it ended with the sealing of the Second Ancestral God who accepted his defeat after getting a promise that the humans won't be erased.

A special tomb was created where the Second Ancestral God was sealed for eternity. And Long Chen felt as if he was the one who sealed him.

As promised, he let humans exist. Not only did he let humans live, but he also made them flourish. As time passed, he even became somewhat fond of humans.

Many times, he even came down to various worlds, one of which was the world where Demons and Heavenly Beings lived together.

That's where he taught the two species leaders some of the Knowledge of the Sealed Ancestral God, wanting that knowledge to live on.

However, when he saw the two species fighting each other with that same knowledge, he was furious. He sealed both the Ancestral God and the Demonic God.

Not only that, but he also erased the knowledge that he had granted. That's why the Demonic Ancestor, after his return to the Demonic Realm, found out that all the inheritance knowledge of the Ancient Time wasn't known to any in his clan.

With time, Long Chen saw the Ancestral God roaming various mortal worlds. At one time, he was even pleased by a mortal that had helped him although he didn't actually need help.

In the process, the mortal had died. Although it was a futile sacrifice that the Ancestral God didn't need that mortal to make, he was still pleased by the morals of the person to even save a stranger.

"The people you created... Although most of them are bad and greedy for power because of the limited lifespan you gave them, there are also many who live their lives to the fullest while also living a virtuous life."

The Ancestral God muttered, looking towards the sky as if talking to the old friend that he himself had sealed. Although he still didn't agree with the decision and never thought about forgiving him, but he could also see the other side of things.

Despite not needing help, the mortal had still tried to save him and in the process died. Impressed, the Ancestral God granted a trace of his bloodline to the child of that man.

That's where the small clan with this bloodline was born, the clan that in the future was annihilated by Tian Shen for his power, who devoured their bodies, minds and souls to completely snatch the bloodline.

Unfortunately, despite trying all he could, his bloodline was never completed. It made him realize that there were more members of this clan that he hadn't found.

That's when Tian Shen began his search for the remaining Members. At the end, only one was left, which he failed to find.

Tian Shen sent the inheritance rings to find the last remaining Members while he went into a long sleep as he didn't want to wait for millions of years.

Unfortunately, as the clan was wiped, the Ancestral God didn't come down to help them. Only with these memories, Long Chen realized why that was the case.

After roaming endlessly for millions of years, the Ancestral God decided to live from the perspective of a mortal to understand why mortals were the way they were. He wanted to understand what it was like to be a mortal who had limited lifespan.

And thus, he decided to reincarnate as a mortal while sealing all his Divinity and Powers.

Until now, Long Chen had thought that he was the last remaining Member of the clan which received the bloodline. But now, he himself was shocked to find out that this wasn't the case.

He wasn't the member who received the bloodline. Instead, he was the one who had granted them the bloodline. And the place where all his previous life abilities and inheritance was sealed was the Martial Soul that had always been right under his nose.

The reason he couldn't accept the inheritance of the other god was because it was truly beneath him!

His true inheritance was so much more than the Demonic Ancestor had received, since it truly belonged to him. It was also vast like the universe.

From the creation of the universe to the present time, he had always been there. From the creation to the Immortals to the mortals, he had always been there. He was there when the first life form was created. He was also there when the first immortal was slayed!

He was there when the first mortal broke through. He was also there when the first mortal died at the age of 69. He had been everywhere, yet he had been nowhere. He was the only constant in the world. He was the beginning, and he was the end.

The Martial Spirit slowly started disappearing as Long Chen recovered his memories that he himself had sealed at the time of his rebirth. The Martial Spirit truly merged with him, returning all he had sealed in the past from his knowledge to his strength.

This was the true awakening... The awakening of the Ancestral God who set out to experience a mortal life.

"Why isn't it working? Why can't I take anything from him?"

In the barren world painted red, Tian Shen was going crazy. Everything was in place. His link with Long Chen was also established, yet for some reason he wasn't able to take even a shred of the bloodline.

He had devoured even more powerful beings than Long Chen who possessed this bloodline, but it had never been like his. He couldn't understand what was happening. It was as if everything was right yet everything was wrong.

While he was going hysterical, trying to find a solution, he noticed Long Chen opening his eyes.

Seeing in Long Chen's eyes, even Tian Shen felt a strange sense of dread wash over him.
