Sam left the valley after a long talk.

There is not much that was told about the planet itself or the local power structure like before.

It was more about the nature of the creatures that live there.

He was surprised to learn that the creatures that live there do resemble humans for the most part but there is one aspect that is different from the humans which makes everything different.

That one difference is that people have wings there and they are called the Feathered race.

The race that has wings on their back and has a glaringly obvious difference from the humans. They are said to be descendants of the goddess herself.

They have tall physiques and the average person is around six and a half feet tall with extremely strong builds and wings.

They really are good at what they do.

Planet Nike is considered the origin of this race and it is named after the goddess.

The power dynamics of this planet are more down to earth and are even weaker than the Desolate planet in a way.

They only have six Consummate realms cultivator each in charge of a city which controls the one-sixth of the planet.

And in the middle of all these six cities, there is one large temple.

This is the only layout that Old beast gave and most of the information is more about how devout they are towards their goddess and Zeus who their goddess is serving.

As for why their power structure is weaker, it is not because of the lack of resources or even the lack of fertility and potential.

Their potential and superiority is almost on par with the elves. The only reason they are like this is because of the restrictions that the goddess herself placed. Every person who broke through the consummate realm must leave this place as they would be summoned to go to a higher realm which is controlled by Nike herself.

The planet is under her protection and there are no invasions on it from any other planet or realm, it is mostly due to the fact that no one wants to mess with a direct confidant of Zeus himself.

On top of that, this is the only place where Nike herself gives insights and teachings to the people.

After all the discussion Sam reached one conclusion, only Zeus has the power to release a Palace of inheritance here and Nike will be manipulating it for him in any way he wants.

Along with that, there would be some serious trouble especially for him because that could be the only reason why some gods wanted to mess with Ling Tian.

There is no other way around it, he has to think of some necessary precautions that could help with the extra trouble he is going to attract.

While Sam is thinking of making preparations, in the faraway realms Ling Tian is standing on a cliff as he held his sword. He is in the same state as when he talked to Sam.

He looked down on a person who is currently kneeling in front of him.

"So, you are from Olympus?"

"Yes, I gave you all the information I had, please spare me"

"And why would I do that now? You have lived comfortably for hundreds of thousands of years, you probably even forgot the times of struggle you had in the past bathing in the comfort of the peaceful and blissful life you had, why are you trying to mess with me? After all, the wounds of the struggle still didn't even heal properly. You can only blame yourself for your foolishness."

With that, he sliced the head off.

He looked at the beautiful horizons before him and smiled.

The one who died in his hands just now is an immortal. He wouldn't have died if he didn't fight with him. He would have lived for hundreds of thousands of years more and could have seen many generations start and finish with his own eyes. But he died because of a god's pettiness and willfulness.

He turned around on looked at the ground, there are dozens of corpses with their heads separated. He killed more immortals who are just a step away from Godhood all by himself.

He took a deep breath and levitated into the air before turning into a sword light and disappearing into the horizon.

The sword light passed through the planet after planet, crossed realm after realm before tearing through the void and space, and entered a special realm that has a very high threshold for entering.

The realm is under the direct rule of Olympus and could be said to be the part of the Olympus itself.

This is the place where those immortals came from.

Ling Tian zoomed past the planets and entered one planet which has some high-level Immortals guarding outside.

But he didn't even flinch and just zoomed past them and the barrier they set up.

The sword light flashed through the city and landed in front of the castle in the middle of it.

The impact of his landing almost caused a sword storm around.

A bunch of guards surrounded him as soon as he arrived and they are all looking at him coldly ready to fight, but their bodies are acting more to their instincts as every step forward they took, they are feeling a bit hesitant.

The aura coming from Ling Tian is not exactly friendly and meek.

At this moment, a woman dressed in golden robes came out of the castle. There are golden wings on her back with those shiny golden feathers.

"Nike, the charioteer of Zeus. It is nice to meet you."

Ling Tian spoke as soon as he saw her.

"If you know who I am and you are still here, you are either stupid or crazy." The lady replied.

"Neither."

"Who are you?"

"Ling Tian, it is funny that you don't know the person who you wanted to kill. That is some disregard."

She raised her eyebrow and looked at him.

"Oh, you are that guy? you survived? That is unexpected. Then why are you still here, you should be thanking your luck and stayed put. Or are you expecting to die and came here to fulfill that wish?"

"Not really, I want to ask why you sent someone to kill me. To be precise on whose orders."

"I have guts to say the name, do you have the guts to go and confront him?"

"Well, I am too weak for that, but I think I can try my luck with you can't I?"

"You? You didn't even cross the barrier to achieving god hood, what can you do to me? I can kill you in a single strike."

"If you can, by all means, do it now. If you don't you are going to regret it until the end of your time."

With that, the sword aura raged wildly and even the wind around turned sharper than a blade.

But Nike didn't even bat an eyelid.

She raised her arm and the clash began.

They fought wildly and as they exchanged strikes one after another, Nike felt like her whole understanding is subverted.

After half an hour, Ling Tian is standing with his whole body covered in blood.

There are several tears, wounds, bruises, and many more injuries.

He is extremely weak and he is only supporting himself with the sword.

Half of the castle is destroyed. Nike is still standing strong, but there is a scar on her abdomen tearing through her golden robes.

She is extremely angry. The surroundings started shaking. After all, how dare a mere immortal who didn't even touch the boundaries of the godhood injure her? In her opinion, such existence should even be possible and if it existed she wanted to eradicate itself.

Right before she was about to make a move, she felt a tremor around the whole realm.

"Not so fast Nike."

Space started tearing apart in the sky as the Gambler arrived.

"Trying to kill my close subordinate? Did you have my permission?"

"Permission, you guys are in my realm, my residence? How dare you come here and swing your weight?"

"I don't have to swing my weight around. My presence is enough. Is it not right Zeus?"

He looked into the horizon as a lighting streak flew through it and came forward, a man whose aura could suffocate the whole realm is hovering in the air right in front of Gambler.

Both of their auras clashed and the lesser level creatures felt suffocated and started puking blood.

"Get out of here."

Zeus said as purple lightning streaked around.

"Is it any way to treat your guests?"

"Guests? You are not invited here. I am telling you once again, get out of here." Zeus insisted.

"Gambler waved his hand and the spatial energy enveloped Ling Tian carrying over."

"I will leave, but before that, let's make an arrangement. I will come back in a few years along with Ling Tian, this time, he would finish what she started and do remember Zeus if you want to follow the path of Indra and Hou Yi. I don't mind. But I will say what I said to them. Be careful what you choose, as you have to pay for the consequences."

With that, both of them disappeared, but the space crack that appeared created spatial turbulence which is the only sound that dared to come out from the whole planet.

As soon as they left, Nike spat out a mouthful of blood and the wound of the abdomen opened up even more as she clutched it tightly. Someone levels beneath her left her in this state. Zeus couldn't help but contemplate his actions once again.
