Once, I wanted to be a good person

The simple three words immediately attracted the attention of several elders.

The elder in military uniform said, "The emergency troops responded that He Weidao did not open the regional passage to the Eastern Administrative Region as arranged. They can’t get into the Eastern Administrative Region at all and are urgently trying to contact the Chairperson Luo Su, but... Luo Su is also out of contact."

Hearing the words of the elder in military uniform, the elders present were all shocked.

For a moment, they couldn’t help but turn their heads to look at an elder in luxurious clothing in the middle.

The elder in luxurious clothing took out a device and pressed a few buttons.

After a moment, he put down the device with a blank expression, then shook his head towards the others.

Seeing this, all the elders furrowed their brows as they looked at the battlefield.

’He Weidao...what exactly do you want to do?’

....

Meanwhile, as the federation’s high-level officials were observing the battlefield.

On the battlefield.

Seeing the body of Venerable Yuan Gu falling to the ground, continuously decaying and withering, Emperor Li, who had just been struck and sent flying, struggled to get up, forcing his depleted body to survey the entire battlefield.

At this time on the battlefield, besides Yuan Gu, the only ones alive were him, the ancestor of the Sima family, and the not yet completely damaged R-type military base.

The Mystic Turtle Military Base and the Suppressing Military Base had been completely destroyed in the last attack, with hundreds of thousands of Awakener soldiers orderly retreating under the command of their officers out of the Sage’s Forest.

And since the R-type military base was mechanical and had strong capabilities, it was not destroyed, though it had lost its demigod-level combat power.

As for the ancestor of the Sima family.....

He was still struggling on the ground, trying to piece his body back together for recovery.

In this situation, Emperor Li was essentially the only one on the scene still capable of fighting.

Thus, though severely injured and greatly exhausted, Emperor Li still struggled to support his body, flying towards Venerable Yuan Gu, wanting to destroy Yuan Gu’s true form!

Although a demigod is indestructible, as long as they have awareness they can resurrect, but once their true form is destroyed, then their divine power and lifespan will also greatly diminish!

And for the venerable one, without a true form and endless divine power, they might directly fall from the positional grid, not even comparable to an ascending demigod!

So, with this hope, Emperor Li staggered to Venerable Yuan Gu’s side, once again condensing his Imperial Seal, raising his hand to destroy Yuan Gu’s true form!

Just then!

Suddenly, only to hear a "whoosh!" sound!

Emperor Li’s movements paused, his body stiffened, then he looked down in disbelief. He saw Venerable Yuan Gu had somehow already sat up from the ground, with the thick skeletal arm mercilessly stabbing into his heart!

Already like a burnt-out husk, now severely injured, golden divine blood slowly trickled from Emperor Li’s mouth. He looked at Yuan Gu in disbelief, stammering, "You....weren’t you?"

At this time, the face of Yuan Gu was filled with ferociousness.

He looked at Emperor Li, his voice squeezing out from between his teeth, eerie, "Hehehe, I? Wasn’t I supposed to be weak, decayed?"

"Li Si, oh Li Si, you’ve been cautious all these years, yet in the end, you dared to underestimate our venerable one at the last moment?"

"You think our venerable one standing atop billions of creatures only has that little capability?"

"Our venerable one is the true Son of Heaven’s Mandate, a peerless prodigy born among billions. Endowed with the Race’s Destiny, imbued with endless divine power, favored by the World Origin, how could ordinary creatures’ methods kill us?"

"Even the Absolute Pinnacle demigod, even one with Unity, can’t harm us!"

With this said, he roared in anguish, and the limitless divine power within surged towards the sky! Simultaneously, a seven-colored light from the Nine Heavens fell, directly onto Venerable Yuan Gu’s body!

At that moment, Venerable Yuan Gu’s body seemed to molt, layer upon layer of black bony plates shedding, with one drop of black blood flowing out!

As his body was being reshaped, the aura and spirit of Venerable Yuan Gu began to soar!

And while being reshaped, Venerable Yuan Gu also looked fiercely at Emperor Li, saying, "I thought your trump card was that mysterious person! Thought your encirclement this time was to create an opportunity for him!"

"So I always held my trump card back!"

"Didn’t expect, didn’t wait for that mysterious person, but unexpectedly encountered a Unity-level strong one!"

"And a Unity-level strong one burning an external divinity too!"

"You guys are really willing to invest greatly!"

"But, a venerable one is a venerable one, a state not easily observed by ordinary demigods like you!"

As he spoke, the bones on Yuan Gu had all been completely replaced. The curse cast by He Weidao had been thoroughly removed, and even his severed half-body had grown back, though he had not emerged unscathed.

Visibly, he appeared much weaker, with his aura at only sixty to seventy percent of its peak!

Seeing this scene, Emperor Li weakly spit out divine blood while forcing himself to say, "Recovery? Is this the venerable one’s greatest power?"

This ability already exposed, Yuan Gu no longer needed to conceal it. So he chuckled softly, shaking his head to deny, "Recovery? No...this is rebirth."
