In the heart-shaped broken land, the Stone Eater had a complicated expression.
He looked at Pang Jian, his strange stone-ball-shaped eyes filled with a mixture of pity and hatred.
The object of his hatred seems to be Pang Jian's father and the entire human race in Purgatory.
But he also felt some pity and love for Pang Jian, because Pang Jian's mother was everything to him and was the creator of his current twelfth-level spiritual power.
"It would have been great if we hadn't met that person."
The Stone Eater sighed with a sad tone.
After hearing His words, Pang Jian became even more shocked, and suddenly realized that his mother's identity might not be as simple as he thought.
They may not even be human!
The messenger from the underworld once said on the way that there is only one world god holding the world god card for each character "hell" in the same period of time.
Since the father is the god of purgatory, then the mother, who is also a god of purgatory, must not be from purgatory!
The one his mother brought to the meeting with the World God was the Stone Eater from the Underworld. He suddenly remembered the beehive in the Silent Mountains and the Underworld Soul Bee that was now resurrected by the World God Card.
At this moment, the leader of the underworld suddenly wanted to meet him.
Then, the mother's identity is obvious. She might be the former god of the underworld.
Therefore, those "Underworld Soul Bees" who are loyal to the Underworld Leader and can only be controlled by the Underworld Leader will appear in the Purgatory World and in the Silence Mountains.
Pang Jian, who had too many questions, opened his mouth and shouted, "Why did she die?"
His father is missing and the cause of his mother's death is unknown. Pang Jian has many reasons to investigate and find out the truth.
"When you can break free from my confinement with your own strength, we can talk about other things." The Stone Eater snorted coldly and said, "You don't know anything about the situation, but you still want to enter the underworld. In your current state, you will be a piece of meat on the chopping board in the underworld. You have to live or die to see Longdi's mood!"
The current leader of the underworld, the king whom all the underworld gods obey, is called Longdi.
In the vast galaxy, Longdi's reputation and combat power are second only to the four overlords, and he is shrouded in mystery.
It is said that in the underworld that He runs, Longdi's true power is enough to challenge any master.
“Crunch! Crunch!”
A strange sound of stones squeezing and colliding with each other suddenly came from Pang Jian's body.
Countless colorful stones appeared in Pang Jian's chest, brain, and organs, filling the empty spaces in his immortal soul.
Outside the chest cavity and internal organs, the tiny stars and the sun and moon are filled with stones.
My mind is also filled with densely packed stones, without any gaps at all.
The flow of his divine consciousness and the conduction of the many magical powers in his body were all blocked by those stones, causing his thoughts to suddenly stagnate.
"Londi won't like you. Your mother was the love of his life, but she was kidnapped by Punch."
"As the realm god of the previous era of the Underworld, your mother and this leader should have been a match made in heaven. If Punch hadn't interfered, they should have followed their ancestral teachings and married, giving birth to the strongest offspring of the Underworld."
"As a child of Punch, you went to the underworld ruled by Him, which was simply sending yourself to be controlled by Him."
"How stupid!"
The Stone Eater's violent voice only vibrated and spread in this heart-shaped piece of broken land, and only Pang Jian could hear it.
"Use all the power you have, all the mysteries you have comprehended, to try to break free from my restrictions. We can talk about other things after you get out. If you can't get out, I would rather you be trapped here forever than to break into the underworld without knowing anything and be killed by Longdi."
The Stone Eater snorted unceremoniously.
…
Purgatory, the fifth realm.
On the inconspicuous broken land, the true gods who had obtained the rare spiritual materials and pills were all taking the time to recuperate.
Pang Jian, who held the World God Card in his hand, was in a trance for a while, and then he communicated with the Queen Bee who was far away in the forbidden land of Absolute Heaven: "How many memories do you have of the previous generation of World God?"
"No, I don't have any memory of it." responded the queen bee.
In the thick gray fog, the tall queen bee had a pair of transparent wings. Apart from that, his appearance and body shape were highly similar to Pang Jian.
This is the normal feature when he transforms into human form. At this moment, he does not have golden compound eyes, nor does he have a very strange appearance.
"In terms of bloodline level, I am also at the level of a ninth-level demon king, but I haven't felt any signs of a breakthrough yet. It's strange that after my bloodline was upgraded, all I could recall were the secret techniques related to our tribe."
He thought about it and answered seriously: "More memories were not suddenly revealed."
"Why? Did you find anything?"
Several fist-sized golden bees were flapping their wings and flying towards them from afar when the queen bee responded to Pang Jian.
A giant ape that was several thousand feet tall and shaped like a towering glacier, with cold air surrounding its body, was proudly and wildly passing through the sea of fog.
His pair of ice-blue eyes shone with a captivating light in the gray sea of fog.
Pang Jian noticed him through the queen bee and the bee worms, and asked in surprise: "Yuan Qi seems to be in good condition recently?"
"Well, by killing those ninth-level alien warriors, he accumulated strength very quickly. The pair of pupils sent to him made him have no defects, and he will soon be qualified to challenge the position of Demon God." said the Queen Bee.
Pang Jian nodded secretly and asked again about the previous generation of world gods, but the queen bee still hesitated and could not answer.
"That's all."
He could only give up.
…
After a while, Pang Jian shouted softly, and suddenly said to the True God leader who was using pills to restore his soul, "I heard from Senior Jiang Fan that only you and Ghost Mother have had contact with the previous generation of Realm Gods?"
He did not mention his father, Punch’s name.
“Swish! Swish! Swish!”
Several true gods who were gathering strength with healing medicines looked over in surprise.
He looked at him and also at King Li who had a puzzled look on his face.
"Um."
King Li, whose eyes had regained spirit, did not deny it and said frankly, "I did have contact with him, but not much. Let me put it this way, he... is the predecessor of all of us. He has existed for a longer time than I have."
Not only Pang Jian, but everyone else was also shocked.
King Li is the oldest among the true gods today, followed by the Ghost Mother.
It was unbelievable to everyone that the previous generation of World God was even older than him.
"He didn't spend much time in Purgatory, and his battlefield was never in Purgatory. Every time he came to me, it was only because I was the nominal leader of the True Gods in Purgatory, and then he told me something."
"He came back to represent the ancient true gods from beyond the heavens. He himself was also one of the true gods of the ancient times."
"Because he is a world god, he can go back after breaking the heavenly ban and escaping from purgatory."
After saying this, King Li looked at the Ghost Mother, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Besides me, he has also seen you. Do you know why?"
The ghost mother frowned and asked uncertainly, "Because my last name is Pang?"
Pang Jian was stunned.
After the Ghost Mother became the Ghost Mother, few people knew her original surname. Everyone just called her the Ghost Mother and never mentioned her original name.
I didn’t expect the ghost mother’s surname was also Pang!
"In the history of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect, the first two true gods both had the surname Pang. One was called Pang Fei, and the other was called Pang Qi. This pair of brothers were also the creators of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect." King Li curled his lips slightly and said, "Just like the Tianbao Sect was called the Tianbao Li Family, the original Ghost Sacrifice Sect was also called the Pang Family's Ghost Sacrifice Sect."
"There are two brothers, Pang Fei and Pang Qi. The elder brother Pang Fei is the most famous one. He is also the Pang family that you belong to."
"Punchi's reputation is not well known, but his origins are even more mysterious. It was not until he broke through the 'Heavenly Ban' and stepped out of Purgatory that everyone suddenly realized that there was such a remarkable person in the Ghost Sacrifice Sect."
"Because, Punch was the first true God, and then he went out directly the moment he became the true God."
"He instantly shone in the Purgatory Heaven and Earth, and then disappeared in an instant, leaving only a few traces of his existence in the Ghost Sacrifice Sect."
“Ahem.”
"Pang Xuan, you are a descendant of Pang Fei, but Pang Fei is your ancestor. And Pang Jian, if you are really Pang Qi's child, then strictly speaking, you are his junior."
As soon as these words were spoken, the ghost mother, whose real name was Pang Xuan, turned pale.
After that, no matter what King Li said, the Ghost Mother gritted her teeth, lowered her head and said nothing.
Li Zhaotian grinned and laughed in a strange voice, saying, "Interesting, really interesting! I didn't expect that after tracing back to the source, you are actually the junior."
"Hehe, Pang Jian is my apprentice. Strictly speaking..."
The fat man was very proud of himself. He laughed more and more wildly and his words became more and more unpleasant.
Ever since he was promoted to a true god, he has never called the Ghost Mother "old lady" or used any honorific term.
Now, he started to refer to the old man by calling him "you" all the time.
"Okay, stop talking to me!"
Yin Ji glared at him fiercely and pulled his sleeve to tell him to shut up, lest the ghost mother be so angry that she couldn't bear it and went crazy again.
Su Wanrou, who heard about this for the first time, also smiled but did not make any sarcastic remarks.
Jiang Fan looked thoughtful but didn't say anything.
Zhu Ji turned a deaf ear to it. It was obvious that he was not interested in such matters at all.
"Ghost Sacrifice Sect..."
Pang Jian, who suddenly revealed a relative when asked, looked at the Ghost Mother with a strange look. He never expected that this most selfish true God was actually related to him.
He never expected that his father was actually from the Ghost Sacrifice Sect and was one of the original true gods of the Ghost Sacrifice Sect.
"Senior King Li, every time my father sees you, is there anyone else around him? Think carefully, is there a woman?" Pang Jian asked what he really wanted to ask.
King Li did not answer immediately, but frowned in thought, thinking carefully about the scene when he met the previous generation of world gods.
"He was alone every time. There was never anyone else around him. I am 100% sure of this." King Li finally said firmly.
Pang Jian was disappointed.
"I have seen a woman, and she is a foreigner!" The ghost mother looked up suddenly with a cold face.
