Chapter 1548: The Other Shore's Destruction

Primal Spirit Luoxiao, having awoken at an unknown time, sensed the changes in the world's situation through Divine King Langwo's divine sense, and thus voiced his thoughts.

"Primal Spirit Luoxiao has always been incoherent, lacking a clear primary consciousness."

An ancient spirit's obscure divine sense surged, saying, "His thoughts are muddled, his consciousness unclear. The Divine King should not listen to him."

Many ancient spirits echoed, "Do not listen to him."

Luoxiao's voice was shrill and angry: "This tiny place, with no thought of progress, content with the status quo, will soon perish! We must leave, absolutely must leave!"

"Primal Spirit Luoxiao deserves respect, but his thoughts are chaotic; he should not be heeded."

Numerous ancient spirits stated, "Divine King, you must understand, if you lead our people away from here to fight in the world, how many will die? Our Creator race is already declining; we cannot endure such turmoil."

Divine King Langwo's graceful figure stood in the void, robes fluttering, appearing very serene.

After a moment, her divine sense resonated throughout the Primal Spirit Realm: "I have resolved to lead the Creator race out of the Void of the Other Shore and into the world to fight for a future where the Creators can survive. I ask for your forgiveness, venerable primal spirits!"

Her divine sense enraged many ancient primal spirits. Countless primal spirits roared, "Langwo, we bestowed upon you the title of Divine King because we trusted you to be unswayed by emotion, to judge calmly, and to wholeheartedly consider your people, never acting impulsively. Now you have a gambling spirit, which will only lead our race to ruin!"

"Acting on emotion will only turn you into the Grand Emperor, or Boyang, or Shujun!"

"We granted you the title of Divine King, and we can also revoke it!"

"If you insist on going your own way, then you will no longer be the Divine King of our Creator race!"

Divine King Langwo's expression remained as calm as ever. She calmly stated, "The title of Divine King was granted by you, and you have the power to revoke it. However, you cannot dictate the choices of my people. The Creators in the Void of the Other Shore could only survive by relying on Wuyou Township. Now that Wuyou Township has relocated, we Creators must also move."

"Then we shall strip you of your title as Divine King!" the primal spirits of the Primal Spirit Realm declared in unison.

Divine King Langwo retracted her divine sense. At that moment, the entire Primal Spirit Realm appeared above the Void of the Other Shore, enveloping the large and small heavenly worlds within. The Creators in these worlds all looked up at the Primal Spirit Realm.

The primal spirits of various tribes within the Primal Spirit Realm appeared one by one, majestic and grand. Their divine senses surged, reaching the minds of every Creator, announcing the stripping of Langwo's Divine King title and strictly forbidding Creators from obeying Langwo's commands.

Among the Creator tribes, there was an uproar. People whispered and discussed, finding it difficult to accept the decision at once.

Langwo remained perfectly calm, allowing the primal spirits to strip her of everything. Only after they had done so did her divine sense erupt, sweeping across all the heavenly worlds.

"Are there any Creators willing to follow me, to leave the Void of the Other Shore, to venture into the outside world and fight, to reclaim our ancestral land, and seize the right to survive?"

Her voice resounded in the mind of every Creator: "Here, there is no future, only worlds created by illusory consciousness. Though the Void of the Other Shore is good, if enemies come, they will trap us here, leaving us no chance to escape!"

"Follow me!"

"The world outside is vast!"

The Primal Spirit Realm was enraged. The combined divine sense forming the realm bore down, suppressing Langwo's divine sense, preventing her from continuing to persuade the Creators.

Langwo still surged with divine sense, relaying her thoughts to everyone: "There may be fierce competition, and perhaps even death, but we will learn, we will progress, and we will keep pace with the times!"

"Come with me, for the future of our race, for our descendants! Follow me!"

The Primal Spirit Realm suddenly transformed into a giant eye — the fundamental component that formed the Primal Spirit Realm, a Primordial Stone!

The divine senses of many primal spirits bore down through the Primordial Stone, their power magnified by at least tenfold. Langwo's divine sense was immediately suppressed, unable to communicate with the Creators anymore.

Langwo's expression remained calm as she stood silently in the void, looking at her people in the various heavenly worlds.

Whether it was the Zili Tribe, the Cannu Tribe, or the Zhuqiu, Dongming, Yanlong, Xiatai, and other tribes, not a single Creator stepped forward or spoke up to say they would follow her.

Langwo's lips twitched. Instead of using divine sense, she spoke aloud, a soft, almost pleading whisper: "Come with me. Don't stay here any longer."

She suddenly lost control of her emotions, tears streaming down her face as she cried out loudly, "Come with me! If you stay here, the Creator race will be annihilated! Follow me—"

Still, no one responded to her.

Langwo gazed at them almost despairingly; everyone avoided her eyes.

They relied too heavily on the primal spirits. It was the primal spirits who had sacrificed themselves to create this Void of the Other Shore, and it was the primal spirits who had built the Primal Spirit Realm, protecting them for millions of years.

Even during their struggles with Wuyou Township, it was the primal spirits who helped Langwo resist Kaihuang.

Langwo, as Divine King, was also appointed by the primal spirits. The primal spirits could establish her as Divine King, or they could establish others. Superficially, Langwo held the greatest power, but in reality, the power of the Void of the Other Shore had always been, from beginning to end, in the hands of the primal spirits in the Primal Spirit Realm.

The primal spirits could appoint Divine Kings, and they could also appoint Holy Infants.

Langwo stumbled through the various heavenly worlds, her gaze filled with anticipation as she looked at her people, yet no one responded to her, no one stepped forward to say, "I'll follow you."

Even those who normally held her in the highest esteem now dared not meet her gaze.

Langwo had cast aside all her emotions for the Creator race, but at this moment, the feelings within her suddenly burst forth, making her lose control and feel that everything she had done was futile.

She had almost lost all motivation. Her cultivation method, her Dao accomplishments, were on the verge of collapsing!

"I'll follow you." Suddenly, a voice broke the silence.

Langwo's heart brightened. Following the sound, Xiuzhong stepped forward and stated solemnly, "I'll follow you. Langwo, though you are younger than me, your wisdom over the years has thoroughly convinced me. I trust your judgment."

He turned around and loudly called out, "My kin, who among you will come with me?"

He did not use divine sense, but his voice was loud and powerful, echoing through the heavens. One by one, Creators from his tribe stepped forward and quietly came to his side.

Langwo regained her courage. Her collapsing Dao heart instantly settled, and her Dao accomplishments ceased to decline.

"No matter what, Langwo is the Divine King in my heart."

Cannu stepped forward, smiling, "She has never acted selfishly, so I will listen to her. My tribe, who among you trusts me?"

A few more Creators stepped forward and silently came to her side.

The Xiatai Tribe, Yanlong Tribe, Dongming Tribe, Zhuqiu, and other tribes also had scattered Creators step out, silently approaching Langwo.

Langwo calmed down and waited quietly. Slowly, the numbers gradually increased, but even counting everyone, they did not reach ten thousand.

Langwo looked at the various tribes; no one else responded to her.

"Once you leave the Void of the Other Shore, never return!" roared the divine senses within the Primal Spirit Realm.

Langwo looked up at the Primal Spirit Realm: "Primal Spirit Luoxiao, will you come with me?"

"I won't be going."

Primal Spirit Luoxiao's face emerged. No longer appearing erratic as before, he stated very calmly, "They built the Primal Spirit Realm and the Void of the Other Shore according to my prophecy. I cannot abandon them."

Langwo nodded silently and led this team of fewer than ten thousand Creators toward the Void Bridge.

They looked back to see the primal spirits in the Primal Spirit Realm already selecting new tribal chiefs, appointing new elders, and finally, under the joint recommendation of the elders and chiefs, choosing a new Divine King.

Langwo turned away, leading her followers through the three chambers and arriving at the Void Bridge.

Outside the Void Bridge, the battle between Wuyou Township and the Heavenly Court was still raging. Kaihuang's early departure and Celestial Venerable Yue's departure from Wuyou Township had emboldened the Heavenly Court's army. The Four Grand Heavenly Masters, Heavenly Kings, and Four Emperors of the Four Directions mobilized superior forces, first establishing a foothold, then encircling them layer by layer.

Wuyou Township, with far fewer gods and devils than the Heavenly Court, was caught on the defensive, trapped by the Heavenly Court's army of gods and devils.

Wuyou Township's Heavenly Masters and Heavenly Kings all came forth, battling the Heavenly Court's Heavenly Masters and Heavenly Kings in extremely fierce combat.

The Qin clan, led by Qin Fengqing, that enormous infant, confronted Yin Tianzi and the Four Emperors of the Four Directions. Their battle was earth-shattering. Although Qin Fengqing was incredibly powerful, nicknamed "Little Earth Count," and the Qin clan was courageous and fearless in battle, they could not break through the Heavenly Court's encirclement of gods and devils.

When Langwo led her forces to battle, Wuyou Township was in grave danger. The Heavenly Court's army had already reached the Thirty-three Heavens, causing the heavens to collapse and revealing the gigantic steel dragon bones buried beneath them.

The entire Thirty-three Heavens of Wuyou Township consisted of thirty-three massive war machines, the supreme masterpieces forged by Heavenly Works during the Kaihuang era. However, facing the terrifying divine artifacts and heavy weapons of the Heavenly Court, these thirty-three war machines could be broken at any moment.

Langwo led her followers, sweeping forward with a roar. Her divine sense abilities, combined with those of many Creators, erupted, clearing the Heavenly Court's army in front, instantly carving out a bloody path.

Nearly ten thousand Creators, with their immense physical bodies, moved with grand, sweeping motions, capable of shifting stars and constellations with every gesture.

While grand divine abilities were difficult to deploy on the battlefield without endangering one's allies, close-quarters combat possessed incredible power. Creators not only possessed powerful divine sense but also physical bodies comparable to ancient gods. In close combat, they far surpassed demigod races!

Furthermore, with Langwo, a Celestial Venerable-level existence, this charge immediately opened a path for Wuyou Township's Thirty-three Heavens.

The Thirty-three Heavens roared forward. Creators ascended into the air, landing on each of the heavens, helping Kaihuang's armies there clear out the Heavenly Court forces that had invaded Wuyou Township.

Langwo was also intercepted by the Heavenly Court's army. The Heavenly Court's Four Heavenly Kings, wielding the divine artifacts of the Four Ancient God Emperors, fought around her, their artifacts' power amplified to the extreme, transforming into the Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise.

Langwo fought while retreating, holding back the Four Heavenly Kings. Only when the Four Grand Heavenly Masters had arrayed their formations to encircle her did she fully withdraw.

The Heavenly Court army pursued closely, chasing Wuyou Township all the way towards the Primordial Realm.

At this moment, in the Void of the Other Shore, the remaining Creators had just selected their next Divine King when suddenly, a figure passed through the Void Bridge and arrived in the Void of the Other Shore.

Celestial Venerable Xiao appeared beside Shui Zhongyue, the newly chosen Divine King of the Creators. He looked up at the still-present Primal Spirit Realm, a smile playing on his lips.

"Third Brother, Luoxiao, your Second Brother has come to see you," his voice echoed through the Primal Spirit Realm.

Primal Spirit Luoxiao's face emerged from the Primal Spirit Realm, and he sharply cried, "Be on guard—"

The Primal Spirit Realm transformed into a giant eye, and the divine senses of all primal spirits erupted through the Primordial Stone!

Celestial Venerable Xiao laughed heartily, allowing the primal spirits' divine senses to impact him. Those divine senses surged into his mind but unleashed no power; they were directly refined by him!

"Your divine senses were originally stolen from me!"

Celestial Venerable Xiao raised his hand and reached for the Primordial Stone of the Primal Spirit Realm: "Now, it's merely returning to its rightful owner! I have waited a long time for this day!"

The attacks of the Creator primal spirits grew more intense, but any attack via divine sense was utterly useless against Celestial Venerable Xiao now.

Divine King Shui Zhongyue also flared up, rushing to attack Celestial Venerable Xiao, but her attacks were also inconsequential to him.

Thousands of Creators charged forward fiercely, assaulting Celestial Venerable Xiao. At that very moment, Celestial Venerable Xiao's hand seized the Primordial Stone that constituted the Primal Spirit Realm.

With a forceful grip, the Primal Spirit Realm collapsed with a roar. Countless primal spirits within were annihilated, their divine senses devoured by Celestial Venerable Xiao, leaving nothing behind.

"Fortunately, Langwo left..."

Primal Spirit Luoxiao revealed a relieved smile: "The Creator race is not entirely extinct."

His spirit and consciousness shattered, and his awareness plunged into absolute darkness.
