301: Return to Dragon Kingdom

Yang Wuji looked at Ye Kong and continued, "This Zhua Ba is a strong individual among the Alien Gods and is closely related to the Alien Emperor. This time, he is a key figure in the great rise of the Alien Race, blessed with Luck. His strength will grow very quickly. Perhaps the next time you meet, he might be on par with you."

"But you don't need to worry!"

Yang Wuji looked at Ye Kong's tightly furrowed brows and comforted him, "You have already advanced to the Deity Realm, and you simultaneously wield the powers of the Thunder God and the Asura God. You have now thoroughly familiarized yourself with both Laws."

"You should have collected quite a few Godheads by now. Once you fully master them, your combat power will naturally soar."

Saying this, Yang Wuji took a Godhead from his Pregnant.

"This Godhead was obtained by me several years ago when I killed an Alien God King. It possesses the power of metal and stone. I will give it to you now to help you master the Law of Metal!"

"With this Godhead, it won't be long before you can get started with the Law of Metal, and this Law can also enhance the power of your Physical Body."

"Although this Godhead offers many benefits, the process is also quite tormenting. You must be mentally prepared!" Yang Wuji said seriously, handing the Godhead to Ye Kong.

This Godhead contained a strong Evil Qi. Once the Law entered the body, both the Physical Body and the Primordial Spirit would be impacted by the Evil Qi, and that sensation would be incredibly intense.

When the Human Race Deities refined the Godhead of that Alien God King back then, they were in such pain that they wished for death.

"Alright, I will not let Senior Yang down!" Ye Kong was flattered, carefully taking the Godhead. His heart was surging with emotion, and his eyes were burning with fervor.

One must know that every Godhead can almost be said to be the life source of a Deity. To seize a Godhead, one must kill that Deity. The Godhead that Senior Yang had painstakingly acquired was actually given directly to him.

Ye Kong was extremely grateful, not knowing what to say, only that he would fully protect the Human Race.

As long as it could improve his strength, Ye Kong wouldn't care about a little pain.

The myriad races in the Forest of Myriad Races had been a scattered mess even before the Assembly of Myriad Races. After the disturbance caused by Ye Kong and his companions, they became even more chaotic.

Some God Kings believed that their royal families, descended from ancient Alien Races, were the true orthodoxy of the myriad races and should be revered;

Some Alien Races believed that the God Kings were outdated, and that the new generation of Demon Race were the new representatives of the myriad races, and should revere the Devil King;

Still other Alien Races observed the situation, wanting to watch the tigers fight from the mountain, and would revere whoever won.

After this commotion, the myriad races became even more chaotic. Some Alien Races who already had grudges took advantage of the situation to attack each other, causing the unrest among the Alien Races in the Forest of Myriad Races to spread into the Human Race's territories.

This further intensified the conflict between the Human Race and the Alien Race, and the fighting gradually evolved into a struggle between the Human Race and the Alien Race.

The Alien Races living deep in the mountains would descend periodically to the villages and towns inhabited by the Human Race, burning, killing, and plundering, feeding on the Human Race, committing monstrous crimes.

On the other side, the Human Race also retaliated in kind, gathering accomplished Cultivators to enter the deep mountains, slaying demons and eradicating evil.

The conflict between the Human Race and the Alien Race had actually been set in stone when the ancient Emperor of Myriad Races launched the war of extermination against humanity. It was impossible for the Human Race and the Alien Race to coexist.

However, such a war did not last too long. After the Human Race Emperor, with a million armored soldiers, suppressed and killed a group of Alien Gods with the force of thunder, the two realms of the Human Race and the Alien Race returned to peace.

But the memory of hatred had been stirred up, and the Human Race and the Alien Race would certainly no longer get along as well as before.

After bidding farewell to Yang Wuji, Ye Kong continued his return to the Dragon Kingdom's capital.

The three-day period passed in a flash, and Ye Kong returned to the Land of the Gods, awakening from his meditation.

After three days of recuperation, Ye Kong's Thunder God Qi was no longer unstable, and his complexion had become rosy. The injuries caused by mental exhaustion seemed to have mostly recovered.

"Today is the day you establish your own Godly Laws. Have you paid attention?"

Xue Ruyu looked at Ye Kong with a hint of a smile and said softly.

Although Ye Kong's current Law was almost identical to that of the previous Thunder God, their temperaments were completely different.

The Thunder God was like a Heavenly God high above, looking down upon the mortal world, majestic and ethereal; while Ye Kong, though possessing an immortal-like demeanor and extraordinary bearing, was like an immortal fallen to the mortal world, simple and unrestrained.

Ye Kong smiled faintly, then spoke, "Commander Xue, we are comrades in life and death. How could you not know my thoughts?"

Xue Ruyu's arrival in the capital was precisely at the behest of Senior Yang, to assist Ye Kong, with the ultimate goal still being to protect the Human Race.

"Haha! Today's matter concerns the Heavenly Dao. Every newly advanced Deity must establish their own Law, so that the Karma of Heaven and Earth can be maximally resolved."

"But a Deity's entire life will be trapped in this heavenly punishment and Karma, unable to escape!" Xue Ruyu first laughed heartily, then said slowly with a calm expression.

"Hehe!" Xue Ruyu's expression towards Ye Kong suddenly became strange, and that smile sent shivers down one's spine.

"Since it's you, Ye Kong, you must want to break free from the constraints of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, right?"

The Great Dao of the Gods can ignore the interference of the Heavenly Dao and act on its own, but it ultimately cannot transcend the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.

The application of the Great Dao of the Gods is still within the framework of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth as a carrier.

However, Ye Kong did not wish to be bound by the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, and therefore was not in a hurry to establish his own Godly Laws.

Ultimately, establishing a Law is a way to improve combat power. Ye Kong currently has too much combat power, and he also has many Godheads in hand, so there is no rush to establish a Law.

Rather than rushing to create his own new Thunder God Law, it would be better to absorb the other Godheads first and consolidate his combat power.

Soon, Ye Kong and Xue Ruyu arrived outside the Royal Palace. When the royal staff saw Ye Kong arrive, they quickly scurried over to greet him.

"Greetings, General Who Suppresses Rebellion!" The royal guards knelt on one knee, saluting Ye Kong.

"Rise!" Ye Kong said with a serious expression, displaying a regal demeanor.

"Reporting to the General, the Crown Prince and others are already waiting for your arrival in the main hall!" The guard said humbly.

"Oh, in that case, I won't catch up with everyone. Let's go!" Ye Kong said softly.

"Farewell, General!" The guards, hearing Ye Kong say this, were immediately overjoyed and quickly sent him off respectfully.

After bidding farewell to the guards, Ye Kong and Xue Ruyu headed directly towards the main hall inside the Royal Palace, arriving outside the main hall in a flash.

Wang Jian and the others were already waiting outside the main hall for Ye Kong's arrival.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the palace gate, Wang Jian knew.

"Greetings, Crown Prince, Commander Shao, Director Cao!"

Ye Kong slowly descended, coming before Wang Jian, and cupped his hands in greeting.

Xue Ruyu remained in the air, aloof and cold-faced.

"General, you are too polite! Commander Xue, please also enter the hall. We have important matters to discuss!" Wang Jian and the others naturally returned the greeting.
