Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Still too weak to be my opponents
Ancestral God Rhismond and his entourage appeared on the scene, but surprisingly, they didn't appear in the sky like the haughty Immortal Gods and True Immortals. They humbly appeared on the ground.
Rhismond and his entourage numbered no more than 15 persons, but all his followers exuded the aura of Immortal Gods.
God Emperor Taitzu's comments kept ringing in everyone's ears, shocking and terrifying the immortal cultivators prostrating on the ground.
Many people have heard the legends of Ancestral and Primordial gods, but they never imagined that such beings might exist in this world.
When the Ancestral God Rhismond's aura dissipated so did the suppressing might it conveyed.
Everyone could look up and notice the terrifying group that had just arrived. Those with significant power in the crowd could sense the auras of mighty Immortal Gods. However, they could not determine the cultivation base of the man at the front of the group. He must be the Ancestral God Rhismond, as mentioned by God Emperor Taitzu.
Other individuals in the crowd noticed that despite the terrifying events that had just occurred, the youth who stood in front of the two prostrating geezers remained standing tall. Could it be that the thunderous voice failed to suppress him, and he refused to prostrate down to the Ancestral God Rhismond?
The two geezers were surprised as well to see the youth still standing despite the arrival of the Ancestral God. Even the God Emperor and his counterparts, who represented the pinnacle of the God realm, prostrated themselves before such a being. How could the youth still be standing in this situation? Even though they were shielded from the powerful voice, how could they dishonour the Ancestral God? Even if it was an immortal God, they would still prostrate if everyone else did the same.
Luidwish remained calm. He did not want to make hasty decisions in this case because he did not yet know the God realm's powerful factions and the powerful beings backing them.
Ancestral God Rhismond and his entourage walked towards Luidwish with caution.
When the two geezers behind Luidwish saw this, they nearly gave out with fear. At this point, they knew that their fate was decided for being too close to the youth. The youth refused to prostrate himself before the Ancestral God and his Immortal Gods.
The two geezers looked at each other, and when their gazes met, they realized it was the final time they would see each other in this lifetime.
Rhismond and his company approached Luidwish, and just as Rhismond was ready to cup his fist and pay respects to the powerful Primordial God before him, a powerful voice echoed throughout the sky.
"Rhismond! There was no need for you to bully these juniors to prostrate like this!" The voice of an old lady spoke in arrogance and dissatisfaction.
The old beautiful lady with grey hair and a turtle shell on her back emerged on the scene, along with six other Immortal Gods.
The elderly lady did not act arrogantly and appeared in the skies as well. She also approached Luidwish on the ground.
Despite her old age, her graceful appearance is elegant, and her beauty does not pale in comparison to the younger ones.
"It is Lady Nana, another Ancestral Goddess." Emperor Taitzu murmured to himself, but some people with sharp ears could hear what he said.
Those who heard were shocked. It turns out that it is not just one Ancestral God but two.
Their amazement continued when another stunning woman walking barefoot approached the scene, making Goddess Eva, Palace Master of the Bewitching Haven Garden, the most beautiful woman in the God realm, appear like an average girl in comparison.
'Another Ancestral Goddess.' The awestruck Luidwish thought as he looked at the beauty and her entourage approaching him. Just as his eyes were drawn to her beauty, two more Ancestral Gods emerged, but unexpectedly, they did not arrive with a group of Immortal Gods like the others.
The two Ancestral Gods who had just arrived did not appear friendly in comparison to the others; they both had mountain goat-like horns and rough, reddish skin.
The whispering spread across the crowd, and those present realized that God Emperor Taitzu, Palace Master Rathiti, Goddess Eva, and other prominent figures had confirmed that the five persons who had just arrived here with their groups were the Ancestral Gods and Goddesses.
The fear swept across the crowd, and everyone pondered on how insignificant they were to be unaware that such figures existed in the God realm.
'The three guys and the two females are all Ancestral Gods in the early stage; could it be that the powerful are still coming?' Luidwish pondered as he observed the five Ancestral Gods respectfully cupping their fists in front of him.
"We pay our respects to the Primordial God." The five and their entourage spoke carefully in unison, resulting in the crowd almost losing their minds.
Luidwish widdened his eyes in confusion, 'Me? A Primordial God?'
Even while prostrating, God Emperor Taitzu, Palace Master Rathiti, Goddess Eva, and everyone else felt their knees nearly giving out. Was the youth they had just disrespected a moment ago such a terrifying existence that even the Ancestral Gods had to show their utmost courtesy?
The two geezers behind Luidwish, who were anticipating to die at any moment, had difficulty believing their eyes and ears. The youth who had previously cupped his fist at them appears to be a freak that they cannot fathom. Their terror has switched from the Ancestral Gods to the youth, but when they glance at the youth, he does not appear to blame them, and he maintains his calm demeanour while looking at the Ancestral Gods.
Luidwish was still thinking about whether the powerful would show up, and he almost forgot to greet the five Ancestral Gods who were paying him respect.
Seeing his nonchalance and reluctance to reciprocate their greetings, the five and their groups assumed they had angered the Primordial God by revealing his identity, and their expressions were filled with worry.
When the old Lady Nana looked at Luidwish again, her eyes furrowed in confusion, and she used telepathic communication to speak with the other four Ancestral Gods, 'Are we sure we are not mistaken about this person? Although we can not see his cultivation base, his bone age is only a million years older. This person is not the Primordial God.'
The other four widened their eyes with realization, and they all stopped being polite.
"So you are simply a junior with a powerful primordial artefact? I almost embarrassed myself by greeting you with such sincerity. A primordial artefact that conceals your cultivation base from us must be at least a 4th-tier primordial grade. Take it out and kneel, and perhaps I will spare your life." Ancestral God Rhismond expressed his displeasure after being embarrassed and humiliated for cupping his fist to a junior.
Hearing this, the crowd became even more puzzled. Everything occurring here today is bizarre and even more confusing.
Luidwish was taken aback by how rapidly their attitude toward him had changed, and he was dissatisfied with their abrupt contempt.
"Kneel!"
Using only his voice, he concentrated gravity around the five Ancestral Gods, forcing them to kneel.
Rhismond and others' faces were filled with dread and horror as they dropped to the ground on their knees like weaklings.
"If you have seniors, call them out. As for you guys, you are still too weak to be my opponents."
