I became a god by treasure hunting after arriving 500 years early

If you convert to another civilization, does your own culture still exist? If the culture no longer exists, is the race still the original race?

But for many weak civilizations, admiring strength is a common phenomenon, and taking shortcuts is not unusual.

The Evil Dragon Emperor surveyed the surroundings and waved his hand.

The fervent sounds of worship halted in an instant.

He cast a deep glance at the human team, whose power armor seemed formidable, but in his eyes, it was not a threat.

Rather, it was those distinguished guests from the "Cycle" region, the Ancient Insects, and the six Demons that deserved more attention.

He spread his arms wide and proclaimed loudly: "I am the Innate Myth of the Evil Dragon Clan, the Evil Dragon Emperor, who has slumbered through several epochs and reawakened in the Ninth Epoch."

"Though your races reside in remote corners, you admire propriety and virtue, and by integrating into our bloodline, you demonstrate genuine sincerity!"

Those who had converted to other civilizations shouted with joy, their blood resonating once more, feeling proud of their choice.

"Now, with disaster approaching, we, the Ancient Race, are willing to take responsibility, leading the Ninth Epoch to forge a future."

Lu Yuan squinted his eyes: "What must come will come. Let's see what means you have to subdue all the civilizations present!"

Humans believed their strength was not weak, yet they could only stand up at critical moments.

Instead of jumping out directly and becoming the target of all.

"Dong..."

The sound of a heavy, ancient bell rang out as a large dragon boat descended from the sky.

Dozens of strongmen from the Evil Dragon Clan carried out large statues, each one a hundred meters tall, some as grand as mountains.

As soon as these statues appeared, the fervent converts immediately fell silent.

Everyone present felt a chilling, bloody aura, as if ancient beasts were silently watching.

Even though the sun was shining brightly, it seemed like winter had already arrived.

The scene was gripping, and the Mind indicator on the instruments shot up, with more power armor starting to break down, paralyzed and motionless on the ground.

"These are the possessors of Infinite Qi! So many?!" Lu Yuan's expression shifted slightly. Seventeen of them, indeed, this number exceeded his expectations.

He began contacting the Turtle Civilization through the Immortal Palace: "Senior, once these guys are unsealed, it will shorten the epoch's lifespan and prematurely trigger an epoch disaster. Should we launch an attack now?"

He was really ready to act!

Even though powerful enemies surrounded them!

But their side was not weak either, with Ancient Insects, six Demons, and three more Demons from the Turtle Civilization, along with some hidden allies! Victory was not impossible!

"No, don't rush, it's already too late." Gui Wu took a deep breath, his tone heavy, "Life signs have already appeared within these statues; only the outer layer of skin has yet to be removed..."

"Even if you forcefully attack the statues, it will only hasten their revival."

"Don't be hasty, watch and wait; if necessary, release the Ghost."

On the dragon boat, a large military force stood guard, and even four other Great Clan's Innate Myths were hidden in the mist, looking down on everyone.

They were aware of the destructive power of technology weapons, so they had arranged numerous protective measures.

A thin light screen appeared in mid-air, resembling a soap bubble that showed a myriad of colors.

Don't underestimate its mere few centimeters of thickness; it can withstand the might of a Hydrogen Bomb, standing on par with the human Light Screen Spirit Language!

The Evil Dragon Emperor announced loudly: "These stone sculptures are the bloodline ancestors of the First Epoch, renowned and formidable in ancient times."

"If we can resurrect them, our Ninth Epoch will surely overcome the disaster!"

Suddenly, a sharp voice resounded.

"Ha ha, a group of outcast dogs hiding in the Weaver's Nest wanting to solve an epoch disaster upon revival? Only a fool would believe that."

"Once these outcast dogs awaken, the epoch's lifespan will be shortened! You must not become a sinner for all eternity!"

This voice was erratic, as if it was made by pinching the throat, its source unknown.

Clearly, it was some specific Divine Skill.

In this world, there were all kinds of talents. Clearly, it was a strong individual who disliked the Evil Dragon Emperor, speaking with a sarcastic tone—moreover, the speaker's strength was not low, ensuring everyone on the large square could hear was no simple feat.

The Evil Dragon Emperor's face grew stern: "Sir, hiding your head in the sand like a mouse, why not stand up openly to confront me?"

Lu Yuan noted that some engravings in Baiyu Square lit up, likely used for monitoring.

Besides, these Ancient Races excelled at divination; a word or two of sarcasm might be fine, but if others were prepared, continuing sarcastic remarks would easily get one caught.

Sure enough, that guy wisely stopped speaking further.

Old Cat couldn't help but mutter: "The number of allies is indeed substantial... but their combat strength is unknown."

Finding no one, the Evil Dragon Emperor had to continue the proceedings: "The ancestors of the First Epoch were so great that they fought until the last moment, finally exhausting their power to seal themselves."

"Their honor is not to be defiled!"

"Today, we shall unseal!"

Flakes of stone slid off the sculptures, golden light surged, and a malevolent aura overflowed.

Lu Yuan sneered inwardly, thinking, "It seems the Mo Sect and these guys are indeed irreconcilable, nine epochs have passed, and today we encounter Infinite Qi again, truly the reincarnation of Heavenly Dao."

"Back then, Jade Duomu Nai couldn't deal with you, but today I'll slaughter you all with the Greedy Demon God."

He was contemplating when to release the Ghost.

Speaking through the headset: "Giant Divine Weapon Team, check the integrity of the equipment and prepare for battle."

"We fight for righteousness and for ourselves."

"But also maintain the necessary flexibility; if things become untenable, execute the retreat command! Preserving your life is crucial!"
