Mystery: The Stranger

Chapter 58 The Way We Came From

This is very interesting, extremely interesting.

Amon knew very well that his father's battle to destroy the Elf King was decisive, crucial, and the most difficult.

The Elf King is also an ancient sun god, the only ancient god who actively sought him out twice, and was passively attacked and fought many times.

All the world knows is that the ancient sun god challenged the Elf King twice.

The first attempt ended in failure, but similar murals can still be seen in some ancient elf ruins, depicting the "Elf King" defeating the ancient sun god.

The second time, the ancient sun god killed the Elf King.

In fact, the two fought far more than twice. It can be said that the ancient sun god fought the elf king the most times, while the other four ancient gods were basically defeated quickly after being well prepared.

For the first time, the ancient sun god came knocking on their door.

I feel that I am the Sun (3+1), the Hanged Man (3+1), the uniqueness of the herding error, holding the first blasphemous tablet. It is difficult to fight two ancient gods at the same time, but fighting only one should not be a problem.

At that time, the progenitor of the vampires, the alien king, and the destructive wolf had all perished together.

The alliance between the ancient gods and the alliance between humans and non-humans has broken down. The ancient gods no longer trust each other. The Giant King, as the leader of the pan-human alliance, is not only suspected of betraying the progenitor of the vampires, but also actively sends his queen and eldest son, namely the Goddess of Harvest and the God of Dawn, to cooperate with the secret human organization on the side of the ancient sun god in order to deal with the Elf King.

The goddess of harvest and the goddess of dawn are now known as the Earth Mother Goddess and the God of War.

The ancient sun god felt that there shouldn't be any major problems. He would go to fight the Elf King, while the Giant King and the Immortal Dragon would keep each other in check. The Phoenix Ancestor and the Demon King were irrelevant to this matter. Even if he couldn't succeed on the first try, he could still test most of the Elf King's strength. The first test should be easy.

Then... the ancient sun god was defeated.

Although the ancient sun god is stronger on paper, he has not fought many divine wars, while the elven king has fought thousands of years of divine wars and battles other ancient gods every now and then. There is a huge gap between them in terms of operation, awareness, and technique.

The ancient sun god had only ever won one battle in the past, and most of the time he was hiding and operating in secret. His strength on paper was not enough to overwhelm the Elf King, so in the first battle of the gods, he fought quite badly. He suffered many injuries and losses, and he fought so badly that he was ashamed and had to stop fighting and run away. He could not adapt to the Elf King's fighting style.

This was a good thing in some ways. The Giant King, the Imaginary Dragon, and the other ancient gods all lowered their guard, thinking that such a precious creature could not possibly defeat the Elf King or any of them. As a result, their debut battle to establish their authority failed to hold.

The ancient sun god was not discouraged, because the solar path is all about confidence.

He simply needs time to grow. Once he is more familiar with his own power, he will challenge the Elf King again and avenge his previous defeat.

The ancient sun god... that's exactly what Grisha thought back then.

Then... the Elf King came knocking, which was completely beyond Grisha's expectations.

After all, Grisha had always operated in secret, and his own plan was to eliminate the ancient gods one by one and reclaim his authority.

He never expected that before he could even challenge the Elf King a second time, the Elf King would actually turn around and attack him.

Then came the hasty response, which was still quite ugly, as they were completely unprepared.

And this... is clearly just the beginning...

Because in actual combat, the ancient sun god was indeed merely a precious object, and the power of the sun, the power of the Hanged Man, was too alluring. Furthermore, the ancient sun god's debut battle saw him first attack the Elf King, a fact that often infuriated the Elf King when he had free time. Therefore...

Every now and then, I would go and fight the ancient sun god.

This was indeed a fairly effective way to give the ancient sun god a lesson.

This prompted the ancient sun god to ponder how to use the first blasphemous stone tablet—this cheat—in order to complement his own authority and borrow the power of the chaotic sea.

The world was temporarily at peace.

The ancient sun god, this Russian researcher, hid away to conduct his research, and hid so well that even the Elf King didn't bother to look for him.

When the ancient sun god had finished his plan and took the initiative to challenge him, and the Elf King accepted the challenge, and when the battle was almost over, and everyone thought it was just another ordinary battle, the ancient sun god took out the first blasphemous stone tablet and unleashed his full power, combining it with the sun, the Hanged Man's authority, and even summoning the phantom of the Chaos Sea.

The ancient sun god thought the Elf King was doomed this time.

But the Elf King also became ruthless. Since the ancient sun god used such methods, the Elf King tacitly agreed that he wanted to die, so let's die together.

The tyrant's power extends to any sea, regardless of its nature. As long as it's a sea, it falls under the tyrant's control. Then the situation spirals out of control, even the ancient sun god can't manage it. The Elf King perishes on the spot. The ancient sun god isn't completely dead, because He crawled out of the Chaos Sea and soaked in it for thousands of years, thus possessing resistance.

This pollution from the earth was so severe that even the Imaginary Dragon felt that the ancient sun god and the elf king were dead, and dared not rush over to seize power for fear of being corrupted as well. It can only be said that the eight ancient gods were extremely wary of the pollution from the earth, because they had suffered real losses and would never resort to such a mutually destructive method.

However, the ancient sun god crawled out from underground, and did not have the deep fear and stress that the ancient gods had.

The ancient sun god never expected that He only wanted to kill the Elf King, but when the Elf King saw Yixie summoning the Chaos Sea, he didn't hesitate to explode against Him.

The lessons learned were too profound...

After this incident, the ancient sun god learned his lesson and never used any of his power when he fought the Imaginary Dragon.

Obviously... also worried, the Imaginary Dragon felt that the other side was too dirty and that he had no chance at all, so he simply retrieved his second personality and also exploded with the Ancient Sun God.

These official histories... can no longer even be considered unofficial histories.

Except for some of the parties involved who are aware of it, almost all subsequent records were erased by the ancient sun god.

In addition, the Ancient Sun God only restrained himself when fighting the Imaginary Dragon. In the subsequent battles against the Phoenix Ancestor and the Giant King, it was a head-on clash between source matter and source matter pollution. Chaos Sea vs. Eternal Dark Tributary, as long as it was not a combination of all five paths, the Ancient Sun God was not afraid that the opponent could detonate the Chaos Sea and kill him as well.

Even the ancient god who held the power of the Phoenix Ancestor could not escape it.

The giant king's sacrifice and acting as a proxy were the only ways he survived being killed on the spot and had the opportunity to pass on his power to his son.

The Demon King Fabuti didn't even dare to fight him...

The impressive results that followed completely overshadowed the hardships they faced when they first debuted.
