"Summon the Ancestral God?"
The 19 Merfolk God spirits couldn't help but be shocked, a look of astonishment flashing in their eyes.
In their Merfolk Clan, there was only one true God, the Ancestral God. Others might be Elders, the Merfolk King, or a clan leader, but they were merely merfolk, not Gods.
Only the Ancestral God could receive all the merfolk's worship, sacrifices, faith, and reverent adoration.
Only the Ancestral God was the spiritual pillar of the Merfolk Clan, exalted and blessing the entire clan in ways unseen.
Only the Ancestral God was the supreme existence of the Merfolk Clan, ruling over everything.
"The Ancestral God usually slumbers, ignoring worldly affairs. If we rashly disturb it now, could it perhaps..."
A Merfolk God hesitated before speaking with a look of uncertainty.
"Correct! The Ancestral God is our clan's guardian deity. Unless facing the annihilation of our clan or other dire emergencies, why would it intervene just because we summon it now?"
