High Martial Arts: First day of dropping out of school, reward: Devouring the Emperor's Body

Chen Xingbian's words completely overturned all of Li Mo's previous speculations.

In Li Mo's previous speculation, the Heavenly Emperor Armor and wooden stick left behind by Ye Ming were the key to sealing the flesh ball and the Dark Ruins, and the flesh ball was also part of the Dark Ruins.

But now Chen Xingbian's meaning is that the flesh ball is not the Dark Ruins, but rather the substance that seals the Dark Ruins, and the wooden stick and the Heavenly Emperor Armor left behind by Ye Ming are actually used to seal the Dark Ruins!

This is just too unbelievable!

How did a lump of flesh seal the Dark Ruins?

You should know that back then, even a weakened Dark Ruins almost devoured the entire Sumeru Secret Realm left behind by Marshal Chen Han!

Furthermore, why did Ye Ming seal the fleshy ball that sealed the Dark Ruins?

Li Mo instantly developed a strong interest in the fleshy ball enveloping the Dark Ruins.

So he asked, "Senior Chen, what exactly is this fleshy ball?"

Chen Xingbian's answer left Li Mo speechless.

"He's just a ball of flesh! A ball made of flesh!"

Li Mo was about to retort when Chen Xingbian suddenly changed the subject, saying, "But this meat isn't ordinary meat! It's meat formed from ancient god cells; only an ancient god can suppress the Dark Ruins!"

"Ancient gods?"

Li Mo was surprised to hear those two words again. He suddenly remembered that he had also heard those two words from Chen Han when he met him before.

Moreover, Chen Han seems to have said that he is also an ancient god.

At the time, Li Mo didn't pay much attention, but now that he heard Chen Xing mention the words "ancient god," Li Mo finally wanted to understand the matter thoroughly.

Then Li Mo recounted her encounter with Chen Han in detail.

Chen Xingbian didn't seem too concerned when he heard that Li Mo had met Chen Han.

Instead, he planned to tell Li Mo the truth.

"The Ancient Gods and the Dark Ruins are top secret, and ordinary people shouldn't know about them. But since my son says you have the body of an Ancient God, I suppose you don't need to keep it a secret from him! So I'll tell you everything!"

Chen Xingbian traveled through the universe for over a hundred years, during which time he gained a great deal of knowledge and insight.

The most important part of this is about the Dark Ruins and the Ancient Gods.

The so-called Dark Ruins refers to consciousness entities composed of dark energy, which have existed in the universe itself since its inception.

Their purpose is to devour all matter in the universe, allowing the entire universe to complete the purification process from existence to nothingness.

They are neither good nor evil, nor do they have a mind; their purpose in appearing is to devour all matter.

Therefore, many things in the universe are devoured by them.

However, the universe is simply too vast. Even over a long period of a hundred years, Chen Xingbian's travel distance in space would only be a few dozen light-years around the solar system.

If you want to go to other places, even a martial god would have to spend hundreds or thousands of years to reach them if you don't find a wormhole that allows for space jumps.

That is why, no matter how fast the Dark Ruins devours, there is still room for matter to exist in the universe.

Compared to the vast universe, Earth, such a small planet, is like a grain of sand, insignificant.

Chen Xingbian once thought that the invasion of the Dark Void two hundred years ago was the end of the world, but after he traveled to the universe, he discovered that even many star systems within tens of light-years of the solar system had been swallowed by the Dark Void, not to mention other more distant places.

Moreover, even special creatures like the Dark Ruins, which are made entirely of energy, have natural enemies!

This natural enemy is called the Protoss!

The gods are an ancient race that was born around the same time as the Dark Ruins. They have extremely long lifespans, often tens of millions of years.

In some ways, they are even similar to stars in a galaxy.

Generally speaking, the Protoss live on stars and fight against the Dark Ruins that erode any matter.

Upon hearing this, Li Mo couldn't help but gasp.

He had no idea that there were so many things beyond Earth that he didn't know about.

It turns out there is such a powerful race in the universe.

Thinking about this, Li Mo couldn't help but make a comparison.

"Senior Chen, I wonder how the Divine Race compares to the War Gods, the strongest fighting force on Earth?"

Hearing Li Mo say that, Chen Xingbian couldn't help but laugh self-deprecatingly.

Then he told Li Mo that the highest realm on Earth is the Martial God.

The people of the God race are born with combat power comparable to that of a War God!

Without that power, it would be impossible to establish a foothold in outer space, let alone fight against the Dark Ruins.

Becoming a Martial God is merely the lowest level of cultivation required to establish oneself in the universe!

Only by breaking through to the Martial God realm can one truly establish oneself in the universe!

Otherwise, there is a risk of being swallowed up by the Dark Ruins at any time!

When Li Mo heard this, he finally understood why Chen Xingbian looked down on the God of War.

Only after truly venturing into outer space will you discover the vastness of the world!

The fifty-odd martial gods above them can now directly determine the future of Earth, but once they enter the universe, they will be less than ants.

At this moment, Li Mo felt a sense of powerlessness. Reaching the Martial God realm was already extraordinary. In the entire three-hundred-year history of human civilization, since the revival of spiritual energy, only a few hundred Martial Gods have been born!

But such combat power is insignificant in the universe!

How could this not lead to despair?

However, Chen Xingbian seemed to have guessed what Li Mo was thinking, and immediately laughed, "Young man, I can be sad for a moment, but you don't need to. Since my son says you have an ancient god body, then you are far more noble than us humans!"

"What is an Ancient God Body?"

Although Li Mo is a transmigrator, he was born naturally in this life, only carrying the consciousness of his previous life.

Therefore, he must also be an ordinary human being.

At this point, Chen Xingbian continued to explain to Li Mo that the so-called ancient god body was the most ancient god race.

This group of gods is the strongest and the only force capable of overwhelming the Dark Ruins.

Ordinary gods can only fight the Dark Ruins to a standstill, but the Ancient Gods can devour the Dark Ruins and absorb their dark energy!

However, over the long years, the ancient god's body gradually declined in the process of constantly fighting against the Dark Ruins, or was eventually devoured by the Dark Ruins.

Although the ancient gods' physical forms perished, their divine souls did not completely perish.

Their spirits wander in outer space, occasionally entering the young bodies of some species, thus completing their revival.

These juvenile forms of the race are called Ancient God Forms.

The Ancient God Body possesses potential similar to that of the Ancient God Clan. Once it fully recovers the power of the Ancient God Clan, it can be said to be able to destroy the world with a mere gesture.

Destroying a star wouldn't be a problem for them!

At this moment, Chen Xing told Li Mo some shocking news: it turned out that Chen Han was an ancient god!
