The reference materials didn't mention whether Great Senior Myriad Ancestor was dead or not. I'm sorry, but based on the information I found, I don't know how to answer.
In the 'Yuan Venerate,' Great Venerate Myriad Ancestor was at the Saint Twin Lotus Realm. He was the Great Venerate of the Myriad Ancestor Region of the Chaotic Yuan Heaven and had a personal disciple, Zhao Mushen. He had a certain degree of planning ability in matters related to Yaoyao. For example, after Yaoyao woke up and regained consciousness, he stopped because he was afraid of Yaoyao's strength and the attitude of the other Great Seniors. During the Ancestral Dragon Lamp Sacrifice, he had been able to order Song Huang and the others to self-destruct even after a prolonged period of attack. The sacrifice had drawn out the strongest Nascent Soul cultivator in the Myriad Ancestor Realm, the Heaven Empyrean Hand Lu Tai. This also indirectly reflected his strength and status.
In the 'Yuan Venerate,' Great Venerate Myriad Ancestor was at the Saint Twin Lotus Realm.
The nine regions in Yuan Venerate were Myriad Ancestor Region, Martial God Region, Purple Cloud Region, Deep Heaven Region, Winter and Summer Region, Mount Daba Region, Absolute Beginning Region, Netherworld Region, and Cangyuan Region. The Myriad Ancestor Territory was one of the top three strongest in the Chaos Origin Sky, and its territory lord was Great Paragon Myriad Ancestor. There were conflicts between the Myriad Ancestor Region and the Deep Heaven Region, and there were even wars. Great Senior Myriad Ancestor had once stopped what he was doing and wanted Zhao Musheng to capture Zhou Yuan from the Deep Heaven Region. However, Zhao Mushen did not care about Zhou Yuan and thought that his battle achievements were not important. There were games and conflicts between the nine regions, and the conflicts between the Supreme Eternals were actually for the benefit of the human race.
[The King of Myriad Forms] wasn't the follow-up to the [Yuan Venerate]. These two novels were written by the same author, Tian Can Tu Dou, but they were independent stories with no direct connection or similarities. Therefore, the 'King of Myriad Forms' was not a continuation of the 'Yuan Venerate'.
'Yuan Venerate' was a manga adapted from the popular novel 'Heavenly Silkworm Potato.' The story was about the protagonist, Zhou Yuan. As a prince of the Zhou Dynasty, he had the natural fate of a holy dragon. However, due to a prophecy, his luck was taken away and his meridians were locked, preventing him from cultivating. Even though he was burdened with the hatred of his country and family, Zhou Yuan was not defeated by the predicament. Instead, he relied on his strong will to reopen his eight meridians and rise up in the crisis of his family's survival. This was a comics about a battle counterattack, hot-blooded fantasy, and ancient movements. It was mainly aimed at young readers. In the manga, Zhou Yuan would continue on his path of cultivation, displaying his extraordinary talent and firm will.

The reference did not mention whether Zhou Qing was dead or not. Sorry, according to the information I retrieved, I don't know how to answer.
The King of Myriad Forms was the new book after the Heavenly Silkworm Potato's Yuan Venerate.
These two works were both written by Heavenly Silkworm Potato. In terms of style,'King of Myriad Forms' was different from 'Yuan Venerate', which was a pure oriental fantasy. Judging from the current update of the King of Myriad Forms, it was difficult to determine the timeline relationship between the two, but there was a possibility that the two were linked.
In terms of timeline, the Yuan Venerate was the prequel, the 'Great Ruler' was the postquel, and the follow-up to the Yuan Venerate was the 'Great Ruler.' In the story of the Yuan Venerate, the great villain, the Sheng Deity, laid an egg before he was killed. After the egg grew up, it invaded the plane everywhere and committed many evil deeds. Its subordinates invaded Xiao Yan and Lin Dong's world. The two of them eventually entered the Great Thousand World to establish the Endless Fire Region and the Martial Border, becoming the Flame Emperor and Martial Ancestor respectively. In the final battle with the Extraterritorial Race, they were defeated by the Heavenly Evil Deity, who had become the Nine-Eyed Evil Deity. In the end, they helped Mu Chen leave his name on the Heaven's Declaration and defeat the Heavenly Evil Deity. Mu Chen was the main character in the " Great Ruler ". He had also received help from the Flame Emperor Xiao Yan and the Martial Ancestor Lin Dong on his path of growth.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was a dynasty in the story of the Yuan Venerate. His crown prince was Zhou Yuan, who was born with purple qi and dragon luck. However, his luck was seized by the Great Wu Dynasty and poisoned, causing his eight meridians to not show and his cultivation to be hindered. His mother, Qin Yu, sacrificed her life to save him, but her lifespan was greatly reduced. In terms of power, the Holy Palace was powerful and posed a serious threat to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Half a year ago, the Holy Palace had established the Saint Devil Army. After the baptism of the Divine Blood Altar, the strength of those who joined could skyrocket, and they could even enter the Nascent Soul Realm and the Law Domain. This made the Holy Palace's strength unprecedentedly strong. Even the five great holy sects were no match for them. The Holy Palace might even have the support of the Holy Race. Zhou Yuan had once asked the Sect Master of Blue Profound Sect to take care of the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, when the Holy Palace attacked the Great Zhou Dynasty, the Blue Profound Sect did not seem to be able to provide sufficient protection. Even though Zhou Yuan had done many things for Cang Xuan Sect and had great potential, Cang Xuan Sect should help him greatly. The other major sects should not sit idly by for various reasons (such as owing Zhou Yuan a favor), but the Great Zhou Dynasty was still in danger. Now that the Great Zhou Dynasty was facing immense pressure from the Holy Palace, Zhou Yuan was determined to protect the Great Zhou Dynasty when he learned that the Holy Palace had sent the Holy Demon Army to the Vast Expanse Continent to capture his parents. At the critical moment of life and death, the core members of the Great Zhou Dynasty, such as Wang Zhou Qing, Queen Qin Yu, General Wei Canglan, and their children, gathered on the walls of the Great Zhou City. They faced the threat of the Holy Palace that was like a world-destroying natural disaster.
