[The God of Destruction had never been defeated in his life, even when the six great Beast Gods presented a tripartite power balance in the Myriad Beasts Realm, the other mbers did not dare to look down upon the God of Destruction because of their own strength.]
"What exactly is the God of Destruction?"
Seeing that Xuan Bird's eyeballs were about to burst out, Tang Xian changed his questioning:
"I an its appearance. Since it is a beast, it must have so distinctive physical traits, right?"
[The God of Destruction looks like a... standing lion.]
"A Beastman Galulu? A golden lion beast?"
[What is that?]
"Nothing, carry on. This standing lion, is it very large?"
[No, although larger and more formidable than humans, among the several Beast Gods, neither the God of Judgnt nor the God of Destruction are considered colossal creatures.]
"The God of Destruction was very powerful, but it still died, right?"
[Yes, the God of Destruction was too arrogant. In the battle of Twilight of the Gods, it was the only one who did not ally with the Myriad Beasts, even choosing to live rely for the sake of experiencing a thrilling and unrestrained battle.]
"From what you say, it sounds like the other Beast Gods couldn't provide that kind of thrilling and unrestrained battle to it?"
[The God of Destruction could tie in combat with my master in the Netherworld, that was the only ti it ever had a draw. After that... my master never again engaged with it.]
Tang Xian smiled but said nothing.
It seed that the God of Destruction possessed a certain powerful enlightennt, growing stronger with each battle. The first ti was a tie, and perhaps the Nether Phoenix would not be its match the next ti.
He wouldn't accept that either. In the future, he could boast, "I went toe-to-toe with the Great Demon King." The more formidable the God of Destruction beca, the more impressive this draw would seem.
However, without voicing his thoughts, Tang Xian asked:
"What about the other Beast Gods?"
[The God of Destruction looked down upon them; the God of Judgnt was no match for the God of Destruction, the Sea God was too massive, utterly incapable of organizing a decent fight. As for the Milky Way Deity, the God of Destruction sneered at the ability to flee a fight it couldn't win.]
"Quite an interesting person, oh no, an interesting beast."
"That explains its disdain for allying with the other Beast Gods."
Tang Xian gradually realized that the so-called Twilight of the Gods seed like the Beast Gods united against a certain entity.
And the God of Destruction, due to its overpowering strength, chose to confront that entity alone.
Sadness flickered in Xuan Bird's eyes:
[If the God of Destruction had been willing to ally with my master, the God of Judgnt, and the Milky Way Deity back then, perhaps... perhaps... that battle wouldn't have been so devastatingly fierce.]
Tang Xian did not expect Xuan Bird to hold the God of Destruction in such high esteem.
But then again, so far out of all the entities he had encountered, other than the chanical god from the Pyramid, it was these Beast Gods spoken of by Xuan Bird that could be considered supre beings.
They were symbols.
They represented the pinnacle of martial might in that era, or perhaps across all of history.
The more Tang Xian learned, the more curious he beca. If these were already so strong, what exactly was that "big boss" that caused the fall of the gods?
What role did the Eden Tribe play in this?
The Ancestral Spirit Tree referred to the Eden Tribe as the first civilization. Could it an that the Eden Tribe existed in this world even before the myriad of beasts?
Snapping out of his thoughts, Tang Xian looked back and noticed that Bai Mansheng, Yuan Wu, and even Tang Xiaojiu were listening intently. He found this amusing. Understanding Bai Mansheng was natural; after all, she belonged to this world and so it was normal for her to aspire to and be curious about those god-like entities. However, the others did not understand the language of the myriad of beasts. Perhaps their interpretation was worlds apart from what he was hearing from Xuan Bird. But Tang Xian could understand their eagerness to listen.
It was much like in the stories written by the martial arts novelist Jin Yong, where figures like Huang Shang, Bodhidharma, Dugu Qiubai, the White Ape, and other bug-level entities, though never actually appearing and even without affecting the plot if removed, were always the subject of discussion on martial arts forums. People would forever debate who was stronger, Bodhidharma or A Qing, the Sweeping Monk or Dugu Qiubai, and so on.
Tang Xian said:
"What about the last one, then? Who is the last Beast God?"
He no longer asked what the God of Destruction's heritage was, nor did he inquire whether the God of Destruction had a Guardian, because for such an entity, Xuan Bird surely knew not where it fell.
[The Lost God, also the weakest among the several Beast Gods. But this weakness was only physical; its ability, however, was exceptionally terrifying.]
"How terrifying?"
[If the God of Judgnt's ability were to return all things to their essence, then the Lost God's ability is to reduce all things to nothingness. Any material, under the influence of the Lost God's telekinetic waves, would vanish into thin air. Its domain is called the Domain of Loss. Although it should have been the weakest, in the battle of Twilight of the Gods, the destruction it wrought was second only to the God of Destruction.]
"Indeed, those who wield telekinesis have destructive powers beyond common reckoning. What does this Lost God look like?" Tang Xian asked.
[The Lost God is a black eagle. Speaking of which, it bears quite a resemblance to my master. The Myriad Beasts Realm refers to them as the Twin Deities of Death.] Xuan Bird seed quite proud.
"Turns out not only humans can be so lodramatically brooding. When the beasts get lodramatic, they act just the sa." Tang Xian curled his lip in disdain.
