Godslayer: Starting with a sword god, the Night Watchers can't hold on any longer.

Chapter 452 Half a Year!

"Well, it's almost done according to your requirements. Take a look and see if there's anything I've missed."

"If not, I'll be heading to Lin'an City soon, and some preparations need to be made there in advance."

Hearing this, Zuo Qing nodded slightly and handed the stack of materials to Secretary Min, asking him to take the logistics department personnel to inspect them.

After everyone had walked away, he sat down next to Ji Nian and asked.

"How much longer?"

"What? I'm almost completely drained, and you're still not satisfied?"

"That's not what I meant..."

"Fine, I'll just tell you directly. Last night, Ye Fan sent back a message saying there's been some activity on the Olympus side..."

"So fast?" Upon hearing this, Ji Nian also put away his playful thoughts, sat up, and said seriously.

"It's only been a month since the Great Xia God disappeared, and they're already getting impatient?"

"Because of the [Black Goat], Ye Fan couldn't get too close, but he did sense unusual energy fluctuations within the Divine Realm. As for whether they have any new plans, it's still uncertain..."

"Where's Zhou Ping?"

"He is in seclusion."

"Seclusion? At this time?"

"Hmm... He's trying to break through to the highest realm..."

The highest realm?

Is this something you can just try whenever you want?

Upon hearing this, Ji Nian gave Zuo Qing a strange look.

"Don't look at me like that, this is his own decision."

"So confident?"

"For anyone else, breaking through to the highest realm in a short time is indeed impossible, but if it's Zhou Ping... he might actually be able to..."

"He's the most talented person among all of humanity..."

.......

The realm of Olympus.

The Black Goat greedily sucked up the nascent origins of the Khrushchev Kingdom.

He looked down at the mangled figure beneath his feet and grinned maliciously.

"This smell...it's wonderful..."

"Xiao An, thanks to you..."

"I will inform that sir of your achievements..."

"Then you can rest assured and become nourishment for the divine kingdom..."

Upon hearing this, An Qingyu, whose flesh was mangled and bloodied, showed no emotion in her grayish pupils.

It was as if they had expected this scene to happen.

He didn't explain, but simply moved his arm, which revealed half of its white bone, slightly.

boom! !

Seeing that An Qingyu still wanted to put up a fight, [Black Goat] grinned and stomped his body into the ground.

"You're being naughty, trying to resist even now..."

Just as An Qingyu's life force was about to be cut off, the towering Gate of Truth suddenly appeared behind him.

In an instant, the figure that had been half-dead under the feet of the Black Goat vanished without a trace.

Upon seeing this, a hint of fear appeared on the ferocious face of the Black Goat.

"Were you protecting him?..."

"Why... does this human have a divided heart? If left unchecked, it will surely lead to disaster..."

"Fine, since you've already made up your mind, I won't say anything more."

"The nascent form of the Khrushchev Divine Kingdom is already operating regularly. How much longer until you return?"

"Six months?..."

"It hasn't been that long, but now that Chaos is dead, how can we communicate with that great one to descend upon this universe?"

"What?...I see...As expected of you, [Key to the Gate]...you can even absorb the power of chaos..."

"Since that's the case... then I'll focus on procreation during this time. Six months later... I'll let the entire planet know what true fear is..."

[Black Goat] talked to himself for a long time. After about ten minutes, He slowly got up and walked step by step toward the direction where the origin of the Kingdom of Khedira stood.

Just as He lay unconscious in the deep pit, all the passages from the Olympian realm to the outside world suddenly closed and disappeared into the mist.

Meanwhile, in the mist, on a secluded island three seas east of the Olympian realm.

Ye Fan also withdrew his gaze and flew towards the direction where the Great Xia stood without looking back.

Half a year.......

We only have six months left...

Just now, in order to gather intelligence about the interior of the Divine Realm, Ye Fan sent a wisp of his divine consciousness through the sea entrance into the Olympus Divine Realm.

The Black Goat's voice wasn't low, but in order not to be discovered, Ye Fan ultimately didn't dare to get close.

Even so, he still managed to grasp a few key words.

Six months later, the Kree gods will be fully born. At that time, they will overwhelm the remaining pantheons on Earth with overwhelming force.

The Great Xia Dynasty was no exception...

.........

"Commander Zuo, the inspection is over. The super-large shelter built by Chairman Ji is almost exactly as Mr. Guan calculated."

"Calculations show that, assuming sufficient food and drinking water sources, the needs of all residents in the surrounding eight first-tier cities can be fully met."

"I understand." After listening to Secretary Min's report, Zuo Qing nodded slightly.

This wasn't the first underground shelter built for the memorial, so he knew very well that after this period of adjustment, there shouldn't be any major deviations.

He came here simply to meet with Jinian and, incidentally, to share the intelligence he had gathered.

"Then we'll head back to the capital first. I'll leave Lin'an City to you."

"Relax, relax, I'll set off immediately once your logistics staff have taken full control."

Upon hearing this, Ji Nian tilted his head and smiled, waving to Zuo Qing and the others.

Seeing this, Zuo Qing didn't say anything more, nodded, and led Secretary Min and her group toward the entrance.

"Ding ding—!"

Just then, Secretary Min's cell phone rang abruptly in the empty underground space.

He answered the call almost without hesitation.

"Hey?"

"I'm."

"What did you say?"

"Repeat it again."

"Okay, I understand. I'll inform the Commander-in-Chief now."

Upon hearing this, everyone stopped in their tracks and stood at the entrance, silently waiting for Secretary Min's message.

They knew all too well what that phone call represented; unless there was a special emergency, the intelligence department would never dial such a top-secret number casually.

Therefore, the information that Secretary Min was about to share was of particular importance.

"Commander Zuo, Venerable Ye has returned from beyond the realm. He said..."

"The Great Xia Dynasty should only have six months left..."

what?

The last six months?

Upon hearing this, not only Zuo Qing and others, but also Ji Nian, who was going through the handover procedures with the logistics department, rushed to Secretary Min's side.

"What does Ye Fan mean?"

"It means exactly what it says..." Upon hearing Ji Nian's voice, Secretary Min gave a wry smile and explained with some helplessness.

"The intelligence department's message over the phone was very brief. We'll have to meet with Venerable Ye in person to get a more detailed understanding of the situation."

“I will go back with you.”

"This..." Upon hearing this, Secretary Min looked troubled and turned to Zuo Qing for help.

"Jinian and I will go first, you don't need to rush."

After saying that, Zuo Qing gave Ji Nian a look, and then transformed into a ball of blue flame and flew straight towards the exit of the underground shelter.

Fifteen minutes later.

Headquarters of the Great Xia Night Watchers, Shangjing City.

The first reception room.

The two, weary from their journey, finally met Ye Fan, who had been waiting for them for a long time.

"Old Ye, what's going on?"

"When I was on Olympus..."

After the two were seated, Ye Fan recounted everything he had seen and heard outside the Olympus region during this time.

"I'm leaving now, I'm heading to Lin'an City."

After listening, Ji Nian did not express her own opinion, but simply set off for Lin'an City on her own.

At this point, there's no point in saying anything. All she can do is complete the task Zuo Qing assigned her as soon as possible and then try to break through to the so-called realm of gods.

Only in this way can we play a proper role in the battle six months later.

After the figure of the memorial had completely disappeared, Ye Fan sighed softly and said in a low voice.

"This girl..."

"Let's not talk about him anymore. What are you planning to do? I've heard about the shelter, it's a good idea, but there's a problem I don't know if you've considered."

"what is the problem?"

"Public opinion." After hearing Zuo Qing's question, Ye Fan took a sip of tea and looked out the window at the flashing neon lights on the street.

"How do you convince the residents to abandon their current homes and move into those so-called underground shelters?"

"Even if Shao Pingge's dream network can significantly influence the thinking of ordinary people, no one can guarantee when this battle will begin, how long it will last, or who will ultimately prevail."

"All of this is an unknown variable."

"If this is not handled properly, once the power of faith is lost, even without the intervention of the God of Kelvin, the Great Xia God will have absolutely no chance of returning..."

"Why don't you just say it directly?" Hearing this, Zuo Qing smiled slightly, picked up the remote control beside her and pressed it lightly. A faint light flickered on the projection screen at the far east end of the reception room.

A moment later, a documentary about ten minutes long began to play in front of them.

"You were prepared all along?"

"It wasn't very early. I was already considering public opinion when I decided to build the underground shelter."

"It seems I was right about you; you truly are a very qualified Lord Commander of the Night's Watch."

Knowing Zuo Qing's confidence, Ye Fan smiled with relief, then stood up and walked towards the door.

"Old Ye, where are you going?"

"Zhou Ping is in seclusion, can't I go into seclusion too?"

"Perhaps I can also try to break through to that so-called supreme realm..."

.........

Ancestral Temple.

Just as Lin Qiye placed the [King's Star Coin] into the groove at the very center of the altar.

The countless boulders below the platform began to move strangely, as if some kind of switch had been flipped.

A moment later, the towering stone statues surrounding the altar were slightly lifted by the movement of bricks, revealing a series of dark stone doors.

"Where does this passage lead?"

"I don't know..."

"Should we go in and take a look?"

"Is there any danger?"

"......"

"We can't get out anyway, so what's there to be afraid of!"

"Nezha is right. What if we can find a way to escape this time-space predicament inside?"

"Heavenly Venerable One, what is your opinion?"

The gods of the Great Xia Dynasty had many different opinions, and for a time after the passage was fully formed, they had no good solution.

Finally, unable to defeat each other, all the immortals turned their gaze to Yuanshi Tianzun, who stood in the very center of the altar.

"In my humble opinion, we are trapped within the wall of time and space. Rather than sitting idly and waiting, we might as well split up and explore. Perhaps we can find some things left behind by the ancestral gods."

Since the Primordial Celestial Venerable has spoken, all the immortals naturally obey.

Soon, the more than one hundred Great Xia gods were divided into twelve groups and entered the passage under the ancestral god statue.

Because Lin Qiye is the only mortal here, in order to prevent any accidents from happening to him, the two Heavenly Venerables, Yuanshi and Daode, will accompany him on the exploration.

The passage they entered was the stone formation guarded by the Dark Ancestor, who was closely related to Lin Qiye.

"Why is it so dark here...?"

"What are you saying, little brat? Dark Ancestor, is it not normal for someone to be a little dark-skinned?"

"Your Majesty... I was just saying it casually, there's no need for you to be so agitated..."

'Cluster'~!

Upon hearing their conversation, Yuanshi Tianzun waved his sleeve, and several golden lotuses radiating golden-red divine fire appeared out of thin air, illuminating the path for the three of them.

Would this be better?

"Thank you, Heavenly Venerable." Upon hearing His voice, Lin Qiye smiled awkwardly, cupped his hands in greeting, and then quickened his pace to follow.

They walked through Stonehenge for about twenty minutes until their view finally opened up.

After stepping into a night curtain filled with starlight, all the towering boulders that had surrounded the three of them disappeared.

The bricks underfoot had turned into black soil and grass.

Deep within this grassland, a bare, towering tree stands serenely.

Lin Qiye observed the surrounding environment and asked with some doubt.

"Where is this?"

"This is the deepest part of the Dark Ancestor Stone Array, which is also His original dwelling place."

"So...we'll meet the Dark Ancestor right here?"

"I guess... I probably won't see him..."

Upon hearing Lin Qiye's voice, the Celestial Venerable of Morality hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.

"The mythology of the ancestral gods has declined; the loss of faith has made it impossible for them to maintain their divine power..."

"Therefore, they have most likely vanished completely, and this place... is just an empty dojo..."
