Otherwise, if Zhen Yuanzi were to lower himself and launch a sneak attack after the feud begins, everyone around Luo Tian, ​​except for the Will of the Abyss, would be unable to escape the hostility of the great divine power.

So Luo Tian simply used the fact that he killed the White Bone Bodhisattva to make up a bunch of lies to scare Zhen Yuanzi.

If Luo Tian claims to have killed dozens of powerful gods, a simple search of information would easily reveal that he is making things up.

However, the great divine power is different. After the great divine power dies completely, its information will be erased, and it cannot be verified or disproven unless it is a great being with a particularly close relationship.

Furthermore, since Zhen Yuanzi saw the White Bone Bodhisattva's soul merged into the passive layer, he has confirmed that the White Bone Bodhisattva was indeed completely killed by Luo Tian. Therefore, the credibility of Luo Tian's words will undergo a dramatic change.

Imagine if Luo Tian were to transmigrate to the world of One Piece and become the Bandit King, and in front of Shanks, he would boast, "I've killed fifty-six guys like you already," and "The reason the Four Emperors are the Four Emperors is because I've killed so many that only four remain."

Generally speaking, people would definitely think you're a fool in this situation.

However, if Luo Tian were holding Kaido's head in his hand while saying this, the credibility of his words would increase by more than one level.

People will start searching for information to see if the Sixty Emperors really exist.

When people are uncertain whether the Sixty Emperors truly exist, the deterrent power of Luo Tian's words will reach its peak.

This is the current relationship between Luo Tian and Zhen Yuanzi.

Could Zhen Yuanzi have completely killed multiple great gods with just that one sentence? Obviously not!

Although Zhen Yuanzi was fooled by Luo Tian, ​​he would not blindly believe Luo Tian's words.

Zhen Yuanzi could not say whether he had killed many great gods, but he had a living example right in front of him.

As far as Zhen Yuanzi was concerned, Luo Tian did indeed possess the power to completely kill a great god, and there was even a possibility that he had killed many more great gods.

Even the slightest possibility was enough to make Zhen Yuanzi hesitate to act rashly.

He dared not gamble, dared not try this extremely small possibility.

Because if He were to make a single wrong step, He might very well pay the price with His life and with everything He had created.

In particular, after witnessing the White Bone Bodhisattva wreaking havoc in the Xuanhuang Great World for countless years, and finally turning everything to nothing without leaving any trace, Zhen Yuanzi felt a deep-seated fear of death.

The phrase "Your bodies and names will perish, but the rivers will flow on forever" should only refer to ordinary people.

But when this statement is applied to a great divine power that can be described as immortal and indestructible, it gives people a sense of absurdity, like a joke from hell.

It should be understood that even a weak god can create the history of a world, but a great god can leave nothing behind after death, which is truly laughable.

With this in mind, Zhen Yuanzi, whose mind was in turmoil, made up his mind and bowed his head to Luo Tian once again.

"I offended Your Excellency before, please forgive me!"

"If Your Excellency has any requests, I will absolutely obey Your Excellency's orders without complaint!"

Zhen Yuanzi's attitude was no longer an apology, but almost a humble one.

Having witnessed the absurd death of such great divine power, no one could help but feel fear.

Luo Tian raised his eyes slightly to look at Zhen Yuanzi in front of him, and a smile appeared on his lips.

He knew in his heart that the seeds of fear had been sown, though he could not use fear to completely subdue a great being.

But from now on, Zhen Yuanzi will pose no threat to him.

It is absurd that a great divine power would bow down so easily.

In fact, Luo Tian knew that the object of Zhen Yuanzi's bowing was not him, but the death that all spirits feared.

Once the illusion of immortality is shattered, even the greatest divine power can only bow to death.

The starry sky was silent, and the surrounding collapsing stars, shattered space, and withering ginseng fruit trees created a chaotic scene.

Even so, there was not a sound in the starry sky, everything fell silent because of the two great beings playing chess on the chessboard.

Finally, after a long silence, Luo Tian slowly spoke in a voice filled with the vicissitudes of life:

"Everything will eventually pass away, only death is eternal!"

Luo Tian's words seemed to have a deeper meaning, but only he knew that this was just a way to finish up the show he had put on earlier.

After all, it would be too low-class to start making demands right away when you're boasting about greatness and death one moment and then suddenly start making demands the next. You always have to put on a show and act sophisticated.

However, while Luo Tian thought this way, Zhen Yuanzi had a completely different feeling about it.

Zhen Yuanzi lowered his head, seemingly moved.

Luo Tian's words reminded Him of the Dao Fruit of Death that Luo Tian held.

In Zhen Yuanzi's original understanding, although the Death Dao Fruit was the most top-tier rule Dao Fruit, it was not outstanding among the great levels.

The great divine power is immortal and indestructible; even those who wield the Dao of Death cannot truly kill it.

The greatest use of the Death Dao Fruit is nothing more than to create a world by establishing a system of life and death to stabilize the world.

But after experiencing what had just happened, Zhen Yuanzi had a completely different idea in mind.

"Perhaps, death truly is eternal!"

"The Death Fruit, Tartarus, and the golden scales that seemed to flash by when the White Bone Bodhisattva's spirit appeared earlier."

Holding so much power, is He truly just a great being?

In a daze, a massive flood of information surged into Zhen Yuanzi's mind like a tide, and all the memories that He had ignored quietly surfaced.

Several eons ago, the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak, the origin of Chinese mythology, voluntarily gave up the Dao of Death and chose to go into seclusion. He has not yet appeared in the origin mythology to this day.

In the Greek mythology, Zeus killed the Titan king and imprisoned him and several other Titans in Tartarus. After that, Tartarus experienced strange occurrences, and it is said that someone directly stole this prison of the gods.

In the origins of Egyptian mythology, internal strife broke out. Osiris, the god of the underworld, was nailed to the throne by Horus and perished. He could not return until countless years later. His golden scales, which symbolized the fairness of life and death, were taken away by Albis, the god of death, and their whereabouts became unknown.

In the earliest Norse mythology, Hela, the ruler of the land of the dead, fell into a deep sleep, and Helheim was completely sealed off.

In the origins of Indian mythology, during the Great Purge of the previous era, Shiva's dance of karma brought about a great destruction that purged all the gods. Shiva, the god of destruction and one of the three main gods, then disappeared.

......

A series of messages flashed through Zhen Yuanzi's mind, and the more he pondered the messages they contained, the more his whole body trembled.

Almost all the supreme deities in the original mythology who were responsible for death and destruction either perished or disappeared within a few eras.

Each of these deities is crucial in the original mythology, far surpassing Zhen Yuanzi, the ancestor of earth immortals, in both strength and status.

But these great beings disappeared in such a short time, which made Zhen Yuanzi suspicious.

However, what terrified Zhen Yuanzi even more was the death of the Great Emperor of the Eastern Peak, the Scales of Justice that Albis held after the fall of Osiris, and the true form of Tartarus... all of this seemed to indicate a connection between these supreme deities and Luo Tian.

"Could it be that they didn't disappear, but have already died?"

Such an absurd thought suddenly came to mind, but was immediately dismissed by Zhen Yuanzi.

Because He still remembers these supreme deities, it means that these deities have at most fallen and have the opportunity to return from the river of history, rather than being completely dead.

However... the fact that these supreme deities did not die does not mean that the other deities associated with them did not die.

And even if those gods are dead, how would He know?

An immense fear surged through Zhen Yuanzi's mind, and Luo Tian became increasingly mysterious and terrifying in his eyes.

Even more surprisingly, a thought suddenly popped into His mind.

"Is it possible that the Eastern Peak Emperor suddenly abandoned the Death Dao Fruit and chose to go into seclusion, rather than because a Great Luo Immortal was eyeing the Death Dao Fruit as rumored, or because the Eastern Peak Emperor sensed its arrival?"

Zhen Yuanzi subconsciously looked at Luo Tian in front of him.

Across the chessboard, Luo Tian spoke calmly:

"The Lesser Underworld is a manifestation of the White Bone Bodhisattva's division of human authority. You should be aware of this. I will reclaim the Lesser Underworld and recast the Six Paths of Reincarnation."

At this moment, Zhen Yuanzi had no mind to consider the conditions offered by Luo Tian. As if he had seen through a great secret, he could only respectfully say:

"Yes!"

Zhen Yuanzi didn't even care how the death system of the Xuanhuang Great World would be handled after the Lesser Underworld was taken back.

Luo Tian glanced at Zhen Yuanzi, who had readily agreed, with some surprise. He knew Zhen Yuanzi wouldn't refuse, but he hadn't expected him to agree so readily.

Luo Tian naturally wouldn't stand on ceremony with Zhen Yuanzi, his gaze falling on the towering ginseng fruit tree in the distance.

Zhen Yuanzi tensed up immediately. If Luo Tian were to ask for the ginseng fruit tree, under the current circumstances, he would probably have no choice but to give it to him.

But the ginseng fruit tree was one of the foundations of His enlightenment, and He would not give up the ginseng fruit tree if there were even the slightest chance.

Under Zhen Yuanzi's watchful gaze, Luo Tian slowly spoke:

"The trunk and crown of the ginseng fruit tree above the earth are yours, but I need its roots beneath the earth!"

The fact that they didn't directly take the ginseng fruit tree surprised Zhen Yuanzi, who quickly asked:

"What is Your Excellency's intention?"

Luo Tian's voice was indifferent.

"I intend to use the ginseng fruit tree as a foundation to divide Yin and Yang within the vast Xuanhuang world and re-establish the Underworld!"

Chapter 319 A vast universe resides within a sleeve, and time stretches endlessly within a pot!

Zhen Yuanzi's pupils contracted, and his mustache trembled slightly at that moment.

Although Luo Tian's words did not actually uproot his ginseng fruit tree, in some ways they were even more ruthless than uprooting the tree itself.

The ginseng fruit tree is the most precious spiritual root of heaven and earth. Although most of its essence is in the ginseng fruit it produces, the importance of the roots of a tree is self-evident.

On the surface, the ginseng fruit tree supports the heavens and earth by its huge canopy that transforms into a starry sky and by the many ginseng fruits that adorn the starry sky. However, beneath the earth, the vast root system is the foundation of the entire Xuanhuang Great World.

The roots of the ginseng fruit tree are spread throughout the entire Xuanhuang Great World; within the mountains and rivers, the roots of the ginseng fruit tree are almost everywhere.

Luo Tian's occupation of the ginseng fruit tree's roots was almost a declaration to Zhen Yuanzi that he should share half of his Xuanhuang Great World with him.

Furthermore, occupying the roots also means controlling Zhen Yuanzi's lifeline. If one day Luo Tian becomes dissatisfied with Zhen Yuanzi and wants to move the roots of the ginseng fruit tree, Zhen Yuanzi will have no choice but to grit his teeth and follow Luo Tian's lead, no matter how unwilling he is.

The more powerful a spiritual being is, the more demanding its environment becomes, just as the massive roots of the ginseng fruit tree are the foundation for nourishing the trunk and the crown of the starry sky.

Even the most powerful spiritual root in the world, after losing its numerous and complex roots, will only gradually decline and lose its status as the most powerful spiritual root in the world.

This single sentence, while not outwardly seizing control of the entire Xuanhuang Great World and the Ginseng Fruit Tree, has in fact firmly grasped Zhen Yuanzi's hand.

In addition, Luo Tian's statement about separating Yin and Yang in the Xuanhuang Great World and opening up the Underworld was also a crucial step in controlling Zhen Yuanzi.

Under normal circumstances, the world of death usually exists in a subordinate form. Even at the level of the Great Thousand Worlds, the world of death that accompanies it can only cultivate a few powerful death deities.

Only the world of death associated with the origin myth can give birth to beings of great divine power.

Luo Tian used the Xuanhuang Great World to open up the Underworld. As the deity in charge of the Underworld, his own status was already equal to that of the Xuanhuang Great World. This meant that the Xuanhuang Great World had achieved a balance between life and death.
