I Slay Gods and Demons in the Deceit Night

It is said that in the Ancient Era, All Gods of the Heavenly Court ruled over the Ten Thousand Realms.

The Green Emperor resided in the East, overseeing the growth of all things.

Later, an ancient god traveled east to meet with the Green Emperor.

The two discussed the Dao and conversed joyfully.

And during the banquet that night, when all the meat was gone, only the celestial wine was left.

The Green Emperor, seeing this, deeply felt inadequate in his hospitality, and out of shame, he drew a blade and cut off his own flesh to serve as meat for the wine.

The Ancient God, seeing this, was deeply impressed and the two continued drinking.

Later, the Green Emperor's daughter arrived, witnessing this scene, couldn't help but speak: "Friends drink together, how can it be right to take meat only from one family?"

The Green Emperor was furious and rebuked the imperial daughter.

Upon hearing this, the Ancient God felt great shame, and thus wielded a blade, cut open his belly, and took out his heart to share with the wine.

At the end of this banquet, the Ancient God's vitality was exhausted and fell within the imperial palace.

With the death of a close friend, the Emperor wept bitterly.

From then on, the Green Emperor secluded himself within his palace, not showing himself for a long time.

——

This is the understanding of the Wutong Divine Mother.

But at this moment, Lin Yan shattered this formation.

Every direction was in ruins.

Gods and Demons, Demons, Evil Spirits, all had turned to ashes.

Only the former leader of the Green Emperor Clan remained opposite.

"I originally wanted to turn you into part of the chessboard."

The old patriarch sighed.

He continued to tell this story.

But the story from the descendants of the Green Emperor greatly differed from the knowledge of the Wutong Divine Mother.

After that banquet.

The Green Emperor rested for three years, fully recovering.

Not seen for a long time, when he appeared again, the Ancient God's body had been turned into a chessboard.

"That venerated Ancient God suffered a great catastrophe, as his vitality gradually waned, he had deficiencies."

The old patriarch sighed: "Therefore he went east, wishing to seize the Green Emperor's foundation to complete his deficiencies and survive the catastrophe."

He said hauntingly: "The Green Emperor had long anticipated this, and the banquet was actually a trap."

"At the banquet, the Green Emperor used his flesh and blood with wine."

"Getting the Emperor's flesh and blood, the Ancient God was overjoyed."

"But with the appearance of the Imperial daughter, the Ancient God's momentum weakened."

"Either retreat then, and henceforth hear the name of the Green Emperor and feel defeated."

"Or rise violently to seize and battle with the Green Emperor."

"But his momentum was already weakened, this Ancient God could no longer withstand the Green Emperor."

"Moreover, the order of All Gods in the Heavenly Realm was still present, attacking the Green Emperor without cause would lead to them rising collectively against!"

"So the Ancient God could only imitate, also using flesh and blood with wine."

"One after another, it was like a chess match, the two began to fight invisibly."

"If he could exhaust the Green Emperor to death, then it would be during the banquet that the Green Emperor would die, allowing him to naturally acquire the Green Emperor's foundation, so the Gods had no reason to attack."

"But ultimately, the Green Emperor won."

"The Ancient God perished."

"Similarly, with the Ancient God dying at the banquet, the Green Emperor, in pain, used the Ancient God's body to create a chessboard, accompanying him as a thought-provoking presence, giving no reason for the All Gods to attack the Green Emperor."

With the voice of the old patriarch.

Lin Yan's eyes slightly narrowed.

The Little White Ape whispered: "The strategies of the Ancient Era are really simply crude… and this is still a struggle between Heavenly Gods?"

Niu Yan replied: "Indeed simple and crude, he seems to also be setting a trap?"

"..."

The old patriarch continued, saying: "Later, using the chessboard as the foundation of a formation, the Green Emperor established a Great Array."

"This array spread widely, often used by Heavenly Generals in the Heavenly Realm, based on Heavenly Soldiers arraying."

"Unfortunately, by the time of my generation, it had long been lost."

"Today the formation you see was derived from mere snippets handed down by my ancestors."

"It not only lacks the divine might of the Green Emperor, but rather bears great flaws."

He sighed, saying: "I underestimate you, within two hours, you can actually cut me nineteen times!"

"I'm very curious, if within two hours, I had not made a move, what would the Heavenly Punishment be?"

Lin Yan raised his head and slowly said: "Is it the means of the Green Emperor?"

The old patriarch slightly shook his head, saying: "It's the remnant will of the Ancient God within that chessboard! After the great catastrophe of the past, the chessboard sunk into the Void… this formation of mine can invoke the chessboard, if there is injustice, it will bring down a catastrophe from the Ancient God!"

"I see."

Lin Yan grasped the Night Illuminating Divine Sword, saying: "This formation of yours seems to have collapsed, but there seems to be no complete calamity! I have yet to make a move, and you have not been thoroughly defeated…"

The old patriarch's expression drastically changed.

Lin Yan walked forward, saying: "You are stalling!"

The old patriarch stepped back.

Lin Yan looked northward, saying: "You are not only waiting for the Heavenly Punishment, but also waiting for the new Green Emperor to come rescue? But he hasn't arrived yet, perhaps he has abandoned you…"

"Impossible!"

The old patriarch stayed silent for a moment, then said: "He cultivated the path of Furnace Refining Ten Thousand Techniques, wanting to possess the purest Green Emperor bloodline, he must eat all the Green Emperor descendants, forging out the purest blood of the Green Emperor! He will eventually eat me, his biological father, he wouldn't let me die here for nothing…"

Lin Yan's eyebrows slightly raised, showing a look of surprise.

The Little White Ape whispered: "Among Gods and Demons, within the same clan, father and son killing each other? Tsk, tsk, tsk… treacherous indeed…"

Niu Yan remarked: "Gods and Demons have power stronger than the Human Clan and wisdom superior to Demons… but their appearance is human-like, their actions inevitably evil!"

Meanwhile, Lin Yan's sword had already pointed at this old patriarch of the Green Emperor Clan.

Despite this old patriarch losing the Emperor's Throne, he still possessed the combat power to break the Nine Heavens.

Yet facing Lin Yan, someone strong enough to break the Nine Heavens, he still was not an opponent.

That's why this old patriarch had already died nineteen times.

Apart from the first two times to intimidate Lin Yan with false bravado.

The following seventeen times were easily slaughtered amidst the struggle with Lin Yan.

Even though this former leader of the Green Emperor Clan had continuously exhibited the clan's inherited techniques.
