Chapter 409: 335: The Heirloom! I, Jiang Mei, Strike the Heavens on Behalf of My Clan!_2
Tribes rose one after another upon the earth.
City-states also emerged with the passage of time.
What remained unchanged was the Abyss Ritual that the Charm Clan conducted following the death of their tribespeople!
Even.
They erected enormous temples upon the high mountains to worship the tribesmen who died each year in battle.
They named the loftiest peak the Divine Mountain.
Upon the Divine Mountain stood the greatest temple!
At last.
Their expansion was halted at the ocean’s edge.
Within the seas, numerous large races also emerged.
They called themselves the Desire Clan!
It turned out that within the ocean, there existed Infinite Voids too.
Within these voids, countless worlds were connected, and the spiritual desires of beings from the countless worlds converged here in this ocean world, coalescing into another form of life.
Two races with entirely different ways of life, started a massive war for various reasons.
The war lasted for hundreds, even thousands of years.
Over a millennium, countless members of the Charm Clan fell by the hands of the Desire Clan.
At the same time.
Countless members of the Desire Clan also died at the hands of the Charm Clan.
The enmity between the two races had long since become a blood feud, a battle to the death!
And as time went on.
On the Sacred Mountain of the Charm Clan, millions upon millions of the clansmen’s corpses accumulated each year.
After the ritual at the temple, the corpses of the tribespeople were sent into the void, just like their future.
Countless members of the Charm Clan knelt devoutly before the temple, endlessly praying, chanting, and narrating.
After countless years.
Atop this temple, a dark light slowly began to emerge.
That was the accumulation of faith and reverence from tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, even millions of Charm Clan members, generation after generation.
And then, it was concentrated by the power of the rules, transcending metaphysics, philosophy, manifesting in this world as something… Divinity!
A trace of divinity that worshipped death!
Under the countless years and the worship and devout faith of the Charm Clan, it gradually coalesced together.
Death Divinity!
This field of Death Divinity was filled with savagery and wildness.
It possessed the most pristine power.
Compared to the Charm Clan, the Desire Clan did not conduct rituals for the bodies of their kings but instead let them drift in the ocean.
To fight for this form, the Charm Clan and the Desire Clan engaged in even more colossal killing sprees.
Meanwhile, to strengthen themselves, they began to explore each other’s world’s voids.
Through the voids, they invaded other worlds, devoured the souls of other beings, took over their bodies, and thus enhanced their own strength.
And so many more years passed.
The countless beings they had slain eventually enraged several mighty races.
They banded together and launched a slaughter on the Charm Clan and the Desire Clan!
Especially the Desire Clan!
The Charm Clan, because of the existence of divinity, did not commit great slaughter with a clear mind.
The war that spread across countless civilizations and planes began!
In the world’s voids of the Charm Clan and Desire Clan, numerous powerful races appeared.
The Titans, Three-eyed Tribe, Ancient Beastmen Tribe, Night Elves Tribe, Ancient Angels Tribe, and Spirit Tribe all launched an offensive against the Charm Clan and the Desire Clan.
Countless Charm Clan and Desire Clan members were killed.
In just one year’s time, the populations of the Charm Clan and Desire Clan on this star were less than one-third of their original numbers.
At last.
At this critical juncture of a battle for survival, the Charm Clan and the Desire Clan chose to unite.
They joined forces to fight against races from the other planes!
But, it was already too late.
Even united, they were no match for so many races.
The Desire Clan was driven by monsters from other worlds to the depths of the ocean.
And the Charm Clan was driven by the allied armies of different races to the Divine Mountain to undertake their final stand.
Three months later.
The corpses of billions of Charm Clan and Desire Clan members littered the mountains and the oceans.
The remaining members of the Charm Clan and Desire Clan, in despair, knelt before their respective temples, praying for the power of the gods in the shadows.
But no such divinity appeared to save them.
Finally, one woman stood up, loudly berating all the tribespeople kneeling before the temple, and with her own strength, charged towards the attacking monsters and different races.
And with the woman’s scolding, many others awoke and went into battle beside her.
In the end, the woman and the last few thousand mighty warriors of the Charm Clan all fought to their deaths, leaving only the old, the weak, women and children.
Finally, as the allied armies of different races were poised to slaughter the last of the Charm Clan’s old, weak, women and children, that trace of divinity within the temple slowly transformed into the figure of a woman.
That woman… was none other than the Spirit Charm Emperor!
With the desires and prayers of countless Charm Clan members before their deaths, and the divinity that had been worshipped by the Charm Clan for tens of thousands of years, it finally came to life; choosing to merge with the Spirit Charm Emperor, propelling her into the Mythical Realm!
In that battle, the Spirit Charm Emperor, along with the last of the Charm Clan, launched their final assault on the allied forces of different races.
She vanquished the Titans, the Three-eyed Tribe, and the Ancient Angels Tribe’s gods, and even slew the war god of the Ancient Beastmen Tribe!
In that battle, living beings were decimated, corpses strewn everywhere.
The allied forces of different races eventually retreated.
And the Spirit Charm Emperor then set her sights on the skies.
The Void!
Or rather… the Heavenly Dao of this world.
“We of the Charm Clan, born from the desires of all beings from All Heavens and Thousands of Tribes, are inherently Immortal and Undying, yet due to the existence of the Heavenly Dao, our clan is forced into endless battle.”
“I, Jiang Mei, on behalf of my clan, rise against the Heavenly Dao!”
