Chapter 503 The Battle to Shoot the Sun, The Rise of All Beings

After killing the Xiu Serpent, Da Yi did not hide, but went directly to Kunlun Mountain to meet the Heavenly Emperor.

As expected, despite the Heavenly Emperor's high regard for Da Yi, he stripped him of his power, dismissed him from his post, and banished him back to the mortal realm.

This period was the lowest point in Da Yi's life.

Although out of respect for the Heavenly Emperor, none of the gods from any faction dared to secretly kill Hou Yi.

He was robbed of everything during the prime of his life and could only live in seclusion in a mountain tribe.

No one can easily escape the despondency brought about by this disparity.

While Yi was undoubtedly a great hero of the human race, possessing the ability and courage to hunt down gods, he could not escape the nature of humanity.

For a full ten years, Da Yi exhibited a state of despondency.

He neglected his martial arts skills, his archery, and even his once-powerful physique was gone...

Fortunately, although Yi was no longer brave and had no more achievements, he met the love of his life—Heng'e.

Under Heng'e's tender care, Dayi lived a peaceful and comfortable life until the Heavenly Emperor became enraged and all ten suns appeared.

When the night disappears, when the sun shines forever.

The ten suns in the sky scorched the earth until it cracked and dried up, and no one could survive.

Under these circumstances, even though Da Yi originally only wanted to live out his remaining years in peace, he had to stop this catastrophe for the sake of his wife.

Thus, after ten years of neglect, Da Yi returned to the mountains.

Holding the crimson bow and white arrows bestowed by the Heavenly Emperor, Da Yi suffered an unprecedented defeat in his first battle.

The red bow and white arrow were gifts from the Heavenly Emperor, and since Yi was no longer at his peak, how could he possibly harm the Heavenly Emperor's ten sons?
It can be said that Da Yi's attempt to stop the Ten Golden Crows from destroying the world was simply courting humiliation.

Fortunately, it wasn't just the myriad beings that rebelled against the Heavenly Emperor at that time; the gods, who were also driven to the brink of despair, were also secretly plotting against him.

They took the opportunity to rescue the seriously injured Yi and helped him reforge the red bow and the white arrow.

—The essence of the earth was used to recast the crimson bow into the [Sun-Shooting Bow].

—Using the essence of the moon palace, he reforged the plain arrow into the "Sun-Shooting Arrow".

With these two divine artifacts in hand, and with the blessing of the gods, Da Yi finally returned to his peak condition.

After that, Da Yi embarked on a journey to chase the sun that lasted for several years.

In various myths and legends, the story of Yi shooting down the suns seems to be just a result, as if he shot down nine suns in a single day.

However, in the real world, shooting down the sun is not that simple.

From shooting down the first golden crow to the final battle with the great golden crow...

The process of Yi shooting down the suns was a continuous process of hunting and counter-hunting, and he himself almost lost his life several times.

However, just as Li Xuandu said before.

Da Yi was not a god, but a hero who attained enlightenment through martial arts and became a saint in his physical body.

Every battle with the Golden Crow was a test for Yi, allowing him to become stronger than before.

During his final battle with the Great Golden Crow, Yi even crossed the Gate of Gods, becoming a being second only to the Great God.

It is a path that is neither essence, nor qi, nor spirit; it is a "divine gate" that brings faith and spirit to their fullest potential.

It was at that time that Da Yi heard that voice that transcended time and space.

Go and become one of the earliest beings! I will be waiting for you at the end of the river of time!

"The Hundred Mountains are where the Great Golden Crow finally crashed..."

"And the Valley of the Divine Shocking God in the Southern Tree Sea is the location of the 'Sun-Shooting Divine Arrow'." As he listened quietly to Li Jingshu's story, the pupils of the Gaoyao Jun began to tremble uncontrollably.

This is Lord Gaoyao using his supernatural ability to "know the future in reverse" to peer into the timeline and glimpse the massive Sun-Shooting War from ten thousand years ago.

From the perspective of the Lord of the Mountain, the Great Archer, who had attained sainthood in the flesh, possessed a majestic aura that astonished all the gods. Every arrow he shot could force the sun in the sky to constantly dodge.

More importantly, Jun Gaoyao clearly sensed that more than one gaze lingered on this era.

They come from either the past or the future, but without exception, they are beings who have initially broken free from the constraints of the river of time.

The battle to shoot down the sun that took place 10,000 years ago is a crucial historical juncture in the long river of history.

That great battle directly led to the collapse of the Heavenly Emperor's rule and the extinction of the Golden Crow.

From that time on, the rule of the gods ended, and all living beings began to rise up.

Until three thousand years ago, the first Witch King led various human tribes to sweep across the Central Plains and established the Zhuxia Alliance, which symbolized human dominance.

"So here's the problem..."

"Why did the Heavenly Emperor not appear during such a crucial battle?"

With a thoughtful tone, Jun asked meaningfully.

“The Golden Crows are different from the daughters of the Heavenly Emperor; they are the continuation of the Heavenly Emperor’s rule.”

"As long as they live, even if the Heavenly Emperor dies, the rule of the gods will continue."

"So what exactly happened back then that made the Heavenly Emperor even willing to abandon his sons rather than show himself?"

This question raised by Gao Yaojun is also the question raised by those who are currently trying to uncover this history.

Everyone knows that the Heavenly Emperor is different from the Dao Ancestor.

As the absolute ruler of the civilization of gods, He would never allow beings from other dimensions to disrupt His rule in this era.

Therefore, we must thoroughly understand the mysteries and questions surrounding this period of history.

Any being that attempts to rewrite its origins and become an ancient being will face a crushing blow from the Heavenly Emperor.

"It's not as simple as the Heavenly Emperor not appearing in the mortal world."

At that moment, Li Jingshu raised another question that everyone had overlooked.

"The ten golden crows are not merely sons of the Heavenly Emperor..."

"They are also the sons of the ancient sun goddess Xihe, born as gods, and are the embodiment of the sun."

"My brother said that Xihe is known as the 'Goddess of the Sun,' and she once created the era of gods together with the Heavenly Emperor."

"But for some unknown reason, Xihe eventually parted ways with the Heavenly Emperor and disappeared without a trace."

Looking at the slightly narrowed eyes of the man named Gao Yao, Li Jingshu said meaningfully.

"Xihe was a great ancient god. At its peak, even the Heavenly Emperor had to share the power of heaven and earth with him."

"Do you think she could just stand by and watch her son die in the 'Sun Shooting War'?"

Gao Yaojun naturally understood the meaning behind Li Jingshu's words, but he had a completely different opinion on it.

“If Xihe were still alive, your guess would certainly be valid.”

"But what if Xihe is already dead?"

"After all, once the celestial beings reshaped the river of time, the Great Celestial God was no longer a symbol of 'immortality'."

"The Great Gods are merely the strongest beings of each era, not ancient beings who are immortal and indestructible."
