Chapter 1613: The Detached God of Creation

He was going to take them there?

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were astonished again.

He was going to beat up their super mighty figure BOSS, and the final BOSS Patriarch Zhu Yin was going to lead the way?!

“Wh-what exemplary service!” An Lin was extremely flattered.

“It’s nothing much. You helped me get back Yiyin after all.” Patriarch Zhu Yin sighed. If he could reverse time, he definitely wouldn’t have made that promise! But seeing as he had, his dignity as Patriarch Zhu Yin would be swept to the ground if he went back on his word!

“But I have to reiterate, we’re only going to beat it to the point of disability, so please don’t kill it. I don’t really know the Dark Spirit King, but I’m in charge of this place, so…” Ding Xiaoru cautioned.

There was another important reason why he decided to go with An Lin and the others, and that was to make sure An Lin didn’t actually kill the Dark Spirit King…

An Lin immediately nodded. “Don’t worry, Senior. I just want to beat him up.”

If it weren’t for Patriarch Zhu Yin, he felt like the Dark Spirit King would not be able to live for much longer. However, seeing as Patriarch Zhu Yin had spoken, he could only settle for beating it into submission.

Ding Xiaoru rose into the air with Li Yiyin in his arms. “Come with me.”

An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, and Tina followed him as they flew toward the northern region of the Opposite Shore Realm.

Everyone flew very quickly, and it didn’t take them long to travel across the Opposite Shore Realm.

An Lin and Ding Xiaoru were chatting the entire time, mostly about the Opposite Shore Realm. As the top dog here in the Opposite Shore Realm, Ding Xiaoru knew more things about this place than anyone else on the entire continent. He was also willing to impart this knowledge upon An Lin without reservation, clearly seeing him as a true friend.

“Just as there are yin and yang within heaven and earth, the Opposite Shore Realm is a land of extreme yin, while the Southern Heavenly Wing Nation is the land of extreme yang. This place has always been affected by laws of the Heavenly Dao, which restricts all yang energy from appearing here, including the light of the sun, while yin energy flocks here…” Ding Xiaoru slowly imparted knowledge about the Opposite Shore Realm upon An Lin.

An Lin was glad to listen and would occasionally ask a few questions.

“By the way, I have a question that I’ve always wanted to ask you,” An Lin suddenly said.

“Go on.” Ding Xiaoru was still his easygoing and friendly self.

“Um… I wanted to ask which faction of the Ghost Tribe you belong to, Senior.” An Lin was a little uneasy.

Ding Xiaoru knew what An Lin wanted to say. Within the Ghost Tribe, there was a heaven crushing faction, a human destroying faction, and a neutral faction. An Lin was clearly afraid that he would be part of the human destroying faction…

If it wasn’t for the fact that Ding Xiaoru had had countless opportunities to kill An Lin, which he refrained from doing so, An Lin would not place trust in this paramount god of the Ghost Tribe.

Ding Xiaoru was not bothered by his question. He replied with a gentle smile, “I don’t belong to any faction.”

An Lin was baffled by this answer. “So you’re neutral?”

“No, I’m not even neutral.” Ding Xiaoru shook his head.

“Are there any other options?” An Lin’s lips twitched.

Ding Xiaoru looked on into the distance, and his gaze seemed to have pierced through heaven and earth. His aura suddenly became ethereal and almighty, as if he were a paramount god who had descended upon this world.

“The arrival of the representatives of the Heavenly Dao triggered a massive world war.

“There is the human destroying faction, which proposed to work with the representatives of the Heavenly Dao in their mission to destroy the human race, thereby currying the favor of the heavens and convincing the Heavenly Dao to spare their tribe.

“There is the heaven crushing faction, which is unwilling to bow and concede to the heavens. They proposed to form an alliance with the human race to destroy all of the representatives of the Heavenly Dao and even replace the flawed Heavenly Dao.

“There are also fence-sitters, or what’s referred to as the neutral faction, as well as a heaven mending faction, which champions the mending of the Heavenly Dao…

“There are many choices to be made here, but all of them are made on the basis that they are required for survival. However… I have transcended beyond all that, and I won’t die, so why would I dabble with any of those options?”

Ding Xiaoru smiled as he turned toward An Lin.

“You won’t die?” An Lin faltered upon hearing this. “The Heaven and Life paramount Heavenly Gods propose the eradication of all life forms on the continent…”

Ding Xiaoru clasped his hands behind his back. “Those are just powers that had been restricted by the Heavenly Dao, so what are they going to do to me? Even if they haven’t been restricted, I can just hide in my world, where I am the heavens! I will kill any of them who dare to set foot in my world!”

Ding Xiaoru’s domineering words made An Lin and Xu Xiaolan’s heart jolt with awe.

This was the absolute power and confidence of a God of Creation Stage living being.

“So this disastrous war actually poses no threat to God of Creation Stage living beings?” Xu Xiaolan murmured.

Ding Xiaoru nodded. “The worst-case scenario for us is that we won’t be able to go to our main world in the form of the Tai Chu Continent.”

“No wonder none of the God of Creation Stage living beings on the Tai Chu Continent aside from Cyril of the True Demon Tribe have done anything even though this war has been progressing for such a long time…” An Lin’s brows furrowed.

Ding Xiaoru smiled as he waved his hands. “There are still many God of Creation living beings who are concerned about this continent. They won’t die, but this is their home. There are countless descendants and brethren of theirs that live here… Those mighty figures won’t really just abandon all of you.

“However, now is not the ideal time for them to intervene. Once a God of Creation Stage living being interferes and stands against the Heavenly Dao, they will be afflicted by a boundless backlash and retaliation from the Heavenly Dao.

“The Heavenly Dao is extremely sensitive to the actions of God of Creation Stage living beings. After they step in, they will be forced to hide in the worlds they created and won’t dare to set foot upon the Tai Chu Continent again.

“This is not what they want, so they have to ensure that their intervention will be decisive and be sure to secure victory!”

An Lin nodded with realization upon hearing this.

At the same time, he was a little confused. He had always thought that Chen Chen was a God of Creation Stage living being. After all, he even had that spotless realm. However, Chen Chen suffered no backlash after standing against the Heavenly Earth God.

Why was he still ok?

Could it be that Chen Chen wasn’t a God of Creation Stage living being?

Then what was his cultivation base?

An Lin learned about the awkward situation the Gods of Creation were in from Ding Xiaoru and also learned about their attitudes and their avenues of retreat…

He learned that they wouldn’t necessarily fight to protect the Tai Chu Continent with their lives.

This was a very disturbing piece of news.

No wonder Ding Xiaoru would be willing to befriend him even though he was a thorn in the sides of the representatives of the Heavenly Dao; he didn’t even care about what they thought!

“Wait!” A thought suddenly flashed into An Lin’s mind. “You said that Gods of Creation can defend against invasions from the Heavenly Dao in the world they created. So what if a God of Creation moves the entire human race into the world of their creation? Wouldn’t the Heavenly Dao be powerless then?”
