Chapter 983: The Start of the God and Demon Race War!

Verdant mountains surrounded a crystal-clear lake. It must be said that this new place of residence, which Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng had found for the Skywing Clan, was rather pleasant; more importantly, it was a very safe location. The Exiled Grounds was behind them, but it was not part of its territory. It was a completely independent star system.

Standing on a mountain peak, Xia Gucheng observed the surroundings and said in a low voice, “Very good! From today onward, the clan will live here. As for the rest of you, follow me into the Exiled Grounds.”

Xia Ke was stunned, and he asked in puzzlement, “Grand ancestor, do you mean that the warriors and our common clansmen will live apart from each other? This won’t be conducive for the protection of the clan’s integrity. After all, we’ve essentially left the Law Realm, and we have plenty of enemies out there who are watching our every move.”

Xia Gucheng replied, “It’s precisely because people may come looking to trouble the Skywings that we must live apart. Relax. This planet is so isolated and farflung. Coupled with this place’s chaotic ray fluctuations, it will be hard for others to discover it.”

Xia Fei said, “The Exiled Grounds is still a chaotic place with no master, a little like a warlord’s seperatist regime. I’m afraid that we’ll draw plenty of attention the moment we get there, with them thinking that we’re out to carve a territory for us.”

Xia Gucheng nodded. “That’s correct. This old man wants to carve out a territory in the Exiled Grounds. Since this is a region of space that has never had a master, the Skywing Clan shall be the one to assume this role!”

Suddenly, Xia Ke’s communication device rang, and he was completely shocked after accepting the message!

“Grand ancestor, the God and Demon Races have officially begun their war several minutes ago!” yelped Xia Ke. Though the Skywings had left the Law Realm, they still had their subordinates inside. As the person in charge of the clan’s administration, he would of course be able to receive news of any occurrences in the Law Realm.

Xia Gucheng arched an eyebrow and sneered. “That’s good! Looks like the thirteen founders really do plan to keep the Law Realm in equilibrium; they initiated a war in order to maintain that equilibrium, balancing the strength on both sides!”

Xia Ke quipped, “Then what should we do? Are you going to just watch from the sidelines and not intervene as war breaks out?”

Xia Gucheng answered, “If I’m not mistaken, the thirteen founders are in a rush to have the two races fight, so the Cosmic Gate must be extremely unstable now! Xia Fei, try and find out the state of that sealed gate from your friend with the Guardians.

“As for everyone else, you’d better get ready for war. It shall be extremely chaotic. We need not only to resist the might of the thirteen founders but also to be on our guard against the possible collapse of the Cosmic Gate, which can happen any time. This includes the counterattack of the Dark lifeforms! We’ll soon be in a very difficult position!

“Still, there’s no need for you all to worry too much; whatever will be will be. This debt has been a long time coming, and it’s time that we settle them all! Although we have left the Law Realm, we are still the Skywing Clan! No matter where the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade goes, our keenness will not dull!

“The one who killed our Godwings years back must die! If any of the Inverse dares to touch even one strand of hair on a Skywing member, I’ll make them pay equally! This is our rule—the fundamental basis to our existence!”

Xia Gucheng’s words moved the Skywing wolves greatly!

No matter how bad the situation got, the Skywings would always continue existing at their own pace!

“From here onward, the Skywing Clan shall enter a state of war! Xia Fei will oversee the investigation of what’s actually happening with the Cosmic Gate. Go take a trip to the Guardians using my name, while the rest of you remain here, awaiting my return!” Xia Gucheng gave this series of orders.

Xia Fei hastily asked, “Grand ancestor, you wouldn’t be attempting to stop the two races from going to war, would you?!”

Xia Gucheng glanced at Xia Fei, astonished. “Have you seen through every single plan of this grand ancestor of yours? That’s not good! Very bad, even.”

…

The war started abruptly, and overnight, both the God and Demon Races were thrown into turmoil. It started from a small-scale confrontation, which devolved into a large-scale mass conflict!

It was said that the catalyst to the battle had actually been the Skywings’ departure from the Law Realm.

In the Law Realm, the Skywings were legendary! This clan had their unique Law of Speed heritage and was the creator of many myths in the history of warring. It was also the holder of a tragic record of countless eradications. The Skywing was well-known as the sharpest out of the Eight God Blades, the Demon-sealing Fiendish Blade!

With the Skywing Clan’s departure from the God Race, everyone in the Demon Race saw hope in emerging victorious, attempting to spring a sudden offensive while the fiendish blade was gone, so as to eradicate the God Race in one fell swoop.

Alas, the members of Skywing knew very well that the Demon Race had begun its assault not because the God Race lost the Skywings but because they needed to return the strength of the Law Realm into an equilibrium at the shortest possible time!

Temple of Many Gods, the residence of the thirteen founders; to be exact, it was where seven of the thirteen gods resided, since the other six had all departed due to infighting.

“A million qualified souls! Ten thousand high-ranking souls! The Inverse’s opening offer is too high! How could we collect so many souls and hand them over in such a short time?!” The one speaking was Mortis, and as a member of the Face-eater Clan, no one knew his true face, for it always changed. Sometimes, he would be an elder, and at other times, he would be a teenager.

The Face-eater Clan was the bloodthirstiest and most barbaric existence in the Law Realm, relying on the eating of other people’s faces in order to change their appearance; they also ate other experts in order to improve their cultivation. If it was said that the other experts would have to shed plenty of sweat in their road to advancement, then the Face-eaters would be shedding plenty of bones on their path of promotion!

They were incapable of cultivating and completely relied on taking in other experts’ energy to promote!

Constant nodded wordlessly. The personalities of the thirteen founders were all different, and he not only had the highest cultivation out of everyone but also was the most normal of them all.

No matter how someone looked, Constant was no different from any ordinary person. He did not have a particularly strong personality, and even the law he cultivated was nothing extraordinary. However, anyone who had interacted with him could tell that the most sinister individual out of the thirteen founders was not the bloodthirsty Mortis, Chill with his pervasive killing aura, or the loner Solo but rather Constant, this nondescript elder!

“In the eyes of the Inverse, only Law Overlords and higher are considered qualified, which means that we must take a million Law Overlords’ lives and successfully harvest their souls! As for the required high-ranking souls, they meant the Law Sage experts! I’m afraid that the Law Realm will be a plucked goose after losing ten thousand Law Sages and a million Law Overlords and will be left with nothing!” The only woman among the thirteen founders, Youth, spoke through gritted teeth.

Aside from Constant, the seven founders each expressed their opinion; all they did was complain about the difficulty of hitting the target, which was hardly constructive.

“Alright! Listen to me now!”

After hearing everyone speak, Constant said with an emotionless face, “No matter how difficult it is, we must persevere, for we were the ones who chose this path! If we fail, then we’ll be the Law Realm’s greatest sinners of the ages; the Inverse are not about to let us off, and the others from the Law Realm will also cast us aside! Could you all truly want to succumb to that sort of irreversible fate?”

They all had an ugly expression on their faces. Back then, they were the ones who had made the unanimous decision not to provoke the Inverse, submitting and going along with their demands, instead.

The Inverse harnessed soul power. The seven founders did not hesitate to murder the elites of the Law Realm, supplying the enemies with the needed souls!

The Inverse eventually felt that the Law Realm was getting too strong and could threaten their position, so these seven founders went to war! They used the internal friction between the two races to cull strength of both sides until the Inverse were satisfied!

Unfortunately, forces like the Guardians and the Rebels were still born from the Law Realm, which were developments that did not go according to the script of the founders. There was also Xia Gucheng and Xia Fei—warriors who always broke the rules!

The Inverse had a ledger, secretly calculating the strength of the entire universe. Things like Xia Fei managing to gather the five Prime Immemorial Mystical Armaments and Xia Gucheng reaching the Founder tier were all recorded accordingly. This became the casus belli for their assault on the Cosmic Gate this time around!

Now, the Inverse had demonstrated their large appetite, asking for such an unprecedentedly high price of a million Law Overlords, as well as ten thousand Law Sage souls!

This price was simply too darn high!

If they were to go through with this, half the elites of the Law Realm would lose their lives!

However, these seven founders were still stubborn, willing to agree even to such an unreasonable demand! These leaders not acknowledging their cowardice caused the entire Law Realm to suffer each time! A greedy man would never be sated; the Inverse would likely ask for even more impossible conditions to the seven founders next time!

The hateful Inverse had treated the universe like their own breeding ground, and the seven founders had long become tools for them to harvest souls!

After all these years, countless experts, including the Godwing experts of the Skywings whom Xia Gucheng had never forgotten about, were lost! They had all become sacrificial lambs, turned into souls that passed through the Cosmic Gate and into the hands of the Inverse for their power-up!

The blood of every lost life was all on the seven founders’ hands!

Everything had been a scam! The entire Law Realm had been playing in the palm of the seven founders’s, as well as the Inverse’s, hands! This was the truth! After learning this truth, it became Grand Ancestor Xia Gucheng’s reason for his determination to leave the Law Realm. He even risked incurring the entire Law Realm’s ire!

After a long silence, Youth was the first to nod. “Alright, let’s do it one more time and hope that the Inverse won’t invade the universe we’re in after obtaining those souls.”

Though the other powerhouses were unwilling to hurt the Law Realm, they had no choice but to agree. After all, plenty of Law Realm people had already lost their lives by their hands; if people learned of this, their glorious image would disappear and they would become the target of everyone’s scolding!

This was what it meant by ‘one wrong step leads to another’. Without even realizing it, the seven founders had already sold their souls to the Inverse, becoming their accomplices.

Constant’s gaze swept across the people present. Seeing that no one had any other suggestions, he solemnly said, “With so many souls needed, just the war between the two races won’t be enough. Chill, go contact the Dark lifeforms and tell them to mobilize their troops when the timing is right. They must inflict heavy losses on the two races. Also, with how high the price the Inverse is asking this time, they must bear a portion of this cost since they’re part of this side of the universe, too.”

Startled, Chill helplessly answered, “I’m afraid that it will be very difficult to convince them into covering a portion of the deaths required by the Inverse, given how the the emperor is faraway and has been taking advantage of the repeated war.”

“They’ll still have to make up for it even if it’s difficult, unless they truly intend to face the powerful Inverse! If the Law Realm gets destroyed, the Dark lifeforms will be, too! I’m sure that Wendar will understand this logic,” exhorted Constant sternly.. “This matter is decided! The two races shall immediately go to war without further delay! In addition, it must be a war to the death until we’re done collecting enough souls!”
