The Growth of a God

Chapter 716 22: The True "Emperor

The Di Jun within the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] is not the true Di Jun; it's merely a chapter of history that unfolded in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms.

However, through this piece of history, Yao Xin still managed to roughly reconstruct Di Jun's life accomplishments.

After finding a world willing to accept him, Di Jun transformed into the sun of that Dark World, aiding it in nurturing the initial Life.

Simultaneously, with the aid of this world, Di Jun also resurrected his children.

Ten suns enshroud the earth, twelve moons illuminate the stars...

The supreme authority Di Jun once pursued in the Mountain and Sea Realm was fortuitously achieved in this world.

Watching this world evolve from nothing to Life, nurturing Gods, the once opportunistic Di Jun did not choose to harvest them.

Unknowingly, the former "Ancient Tyrant" became a truly qualified Supreme God.

No longer a God of Destruction bringing ruin, but truly a Supreme Sun capable of illuminating a world.

Just when Di Jun thought his remaining life would pass by peacefully.

And, like most Supreme Gods and Creators, fall into a long slumber, an unexpected yet inevitable event occurred.

Always pursuing Di Jun's whereabouts, Bai Ze discovered this world and once again initiated war.

This war differed from previous ones.

Di Jun became the defender, watching helplessly as Bai Ze's army ravaged the home he painstakingly built.

Di Jun had never been so furious, and for the first time, he felt what it truly meant to be pained to the core.

Watching those beings and Gods he raised under his watch being slaughtered felt like his own children were being killed.

Life was no longer just a simple number but rather individuals with clear life trajectories and beliefs.

The enraged Di Jun maintained his unyielding nature, rapidly organizing resistance against Bai Ze's army.

Yet, Di Jun only realized in the later stages of the war that Bai Ze had harnessed the power of the Creator.

The "Bai Ze's army" he saw was merely cannon fodder manifesting from the power of the [Bai Ze Map].

No matter how many invaders he eliminated, it was impossible to inflict any damage on Bai Ze.

Subsequently, Di Jun stopped entangling with the Bai Ze army invading his world and instead ventured alone into Chaos, attempting to locate Bai Ze's true hiding place.

Thus, when Di Jun discovered the Heluo World, a final battle concerning two worlds officially unfolded.

To be honest, if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, even the Nine Heavens Profound Lady couldn't have possibly imagined that this "Final Battle" would be initiated by Bai Ze.

Under the exquisite demonstration of the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace], everyone witnessed the entirety of that great battle.

Firstly, the passage connecting the two worlds was forcibly opened.

Incarnating as the Supreme Sun, Di Jun disregarded his own safety and forcefully knocked the Jiuge Gods of the Heluo World down in dimensions.

Subsequently, Bai Ze seized the chance to severely injure Di Jun's true form while also delivering a Dimensional Strike to Di Jun's Divine beings.

In the offensive and defensive war between two Supreme Gods, other Gods were merely pieces on the chessboard, unable to decide their own life or death.

Then came the nearly insane clash and pull between the two worlds.

As the war neared its end, the usually tough Di Jun even considered seeking peace, unwilling to see further devastating disaster for the beings of both worlds.

Unfortunately, Bai Ze did not heed Di Jun's wish but instead manifested more furious spirit monsters and Ghost Gods.

In this scenario, Di Jun suddenly realized—there was no possibility for negotiation between him and Bai Ze.

The pain he was now experiencing was something Bai Ze had already gone through.

And he was the source of all of Bai Ze's agony and suffering, the sworn enemy Bai Ze would stop at nothing to kill.

In the past, he slaughtered Bai Ze's kin, family, clan members.

For Bai Ze to make him experience the pain he once endured was merely using the same approach.

Do you think Di Jun regretted it?

To say he didn't regret it is impossible.

But Di Jun regretted not the suffering he caused Bai Ze, but why he hadn't killed Bai Ze as well back then.

Stories like "lay down the butcher knife and become a Buddha" are forever just stories.

Di Jun's vexation and remorse, that is the mindset and attitude a long-standing Ancient Emperor should have.

Besides, Bai Ze wasn't doing this to make Di Jun regret.

He was simply seeking revenge, avenging the annihilation of his clan, everything else could be temporarily set aside.

Allegedly the confrontation of needle tip and wheat awn describes Di Jun and Bai Ze's state.

The final outcome was imaginable; both worlds simultaneously stepped into destruction.

Di Jun single-handedly supported the entire world, preventing it from completely falling into the [Fallen Area].

Bai Ze, at the last moment, threw the [Bai Ze Map] into the [Fallen Area], preserving a spark for the Resurrection of the Jiuge Gods.

"So… did Bai Ze die in the end?"

Watching the evolution of the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] stop at this, Hua She couldn't help but ask.

"Probably dead, right?"

Her tone remained calm as Yao Xin spoke faintly.

After all, Di Jun and Bai Ze were on the same tier as Supreme Gods, and the final battle nearly exhausted all their cards.

From any perspective, Bai Ze's state couldn't be better than Di Jun's; perhaps death was the only answer.

"Simply put, Di Jun sensed the emergence of the 'Bai Ze Map' and planned to seize this Divine Artifact to repair his world, which led him to return to the Mountain and Sea Realm desperately."

"If Bai Ze was indeed still alive, Di Jun could truly have a chance to acquire the usage of the 'Bai Ze Map'."

"Unfortunately, what Di Jun hadn't anticipated was that the holder of the 'Bai Ze Map' was not Bai Ze, but Father God."

Summarized in a few words, Yao Xin showed consistent confidence in Li Hao.

In Yao Xin's heart, Li Hao was the All-Knowing and All-Powerful supreme existence.

Not to mention a worn-out Di Jun, even if a fully restored Di Jun and Bai Ze returned simultaneously, they couldn't take anything from him.

"Indeed! Di Jun and Bai Ze eventually became your stepping stones!"

Looking enviously at the [Fixed Star Tripod Furnace] in Yaoxing's hands, Hua She, even now, was still obsessed with Li Hao's partiality.

Only the Nine Heavens Profound Lady was still steeped in the history of Di Jun and Bai Ze, unable to extricate herself.

Di Jun was not purely a Tyrant, Bai Ze was not an entirely selfless Saint either…

Good and evil, right and wrong, in the eyes of beings from these two distinct worlds, are exactly the opposite.

The Nine Heavens Profound Lady suddenly conceived a notion in her heart, that perhaps Di Jun was worthy of being commemorated.

Or, perhaps, somewhere in the All Heavens and Myriad Realms, there might be someone still thinking of Di Jun?
