Chapter 1601 — The Death of a Godking
The Herdsman of the Wasteland · Page 4 of 5
The young man's battle with Uncle Yang in the northern frontier shook the world. The most ancient Godking and his mount, the dragon Xiao, also fell to this young man.
The Three Kings had no choice but to join forces, and only then did they beat back the Juyu Clan's invasion. To stop the Juyu Clan's aggression, they formed an alliance and jointly honored the young man as the Grand Emperor.
This day was the day she married the Grand Emperor.
The Grand Emperor had repeatedly sought her hand, and she had refused him every time, yet he still would not give up and continued to seek her hand.
The Grand Emperor's persistence toward her was beyond belief.
She remembered the words of the old clan chief who had died in battle, spoken when she succeeded to the position, and finally agreed to the Grand Emperor's proposal. The ancient era was too savage, too bloody. She had to consider the future of the Nüxin Clan.
Since the Nüxin Clan could not conquer the world, could not conquer the universe and primal chaos, then she would conquer the man who had conquered the universe and primal chaos.
Gong Tianzun walked past the ruins of the Nüxin Clan's ancestral grounds. The scene stirred her emotions, and she remembered again the Grand Emperor losing his mind and slaughtering her clanspeople.
At this moment, her illusion violently fluctuated. Gong Tianzun immediately altered the illusion, freeing herself from this sorrowful memory.
"I am the last Creator. I cannot die," she reminded herself.
At that time, the Grand Emperor had received the collective sacrifices of all the Creator races. Both his physical body and his divine consciousness had reached unimaginable heights. His divine consciousness had broken through the ultimate void, branded upon the ultimate void, and transformed into an incomparably wondrous heaven of divine consciousness—the Great Luotian. Within the Great Luotian, the Dao Tree grew, Dao Flowers bloomed, and Dao Fruits formed.
The Grand Emperor was at his zenith. He had no need to conquer the other races—they had already submitted. And so Godking Gong Yun became the woman of greatest power, the two of them jointly ruling the entire universe.
The Grand Emperor's madness exceeded everyone's expectations.
When she stood upon the ruins of the Nüxin Clan and looked around, seeing that every place was strewn with the broken, scattered corpses of her clanspeople, she too went mad.
She dashed her own son—the son she had borne with the Grand Emperor—to death, and turned to throw herself into the arms of the Grand Emperor's adopted son, Taichu.
Gong Tianzun left the Ancestral Court.
She came to the Yuan Realm.
The Yuan Realm had not existed in the ancient era. It was born when the final battle of the Creators split off a massive chunk of the Ancestral Court. This chunk of land expanded and transformed into the Yuan Realm, also called the Yuan Capital.
She walked upon the Yuan Realm. Ahead of her, the flames of war stretched to the sky. Gong Tianzun, surrounded by layer upon layer of illusions, gazed into the distance and saw the armies of the Heavenly Court pursuing and slaughtering the thirty-three heavens of the Land of No Sorrow. The battle had already reached this place.
Her gaze suddenly froze, falling upon those towering, massive figures leaping and battling ceaselessly across the battlefield.
Those were Creators.
Lang Wan was leading the surviving Creators in battle against the Heavenly Court, jointly defending the Land of No Sorrow alongside the remnants of the Kaihuang faction!
Gong Tianzun let out a moan like one speaking in a dream, feeling a sharp pain emanate from her dao heart.
Godking Lang Wan noticed her and was startled. She hurriedly flew over, layer upon layer of divine consciousness dao patterns branding the void, sealing the void tightly. Alert, she said, "Gong Yun, you've come to kill me? These are all the Creators that remain!"
