Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Four Gods, standing guard on different seal anchor points respectively When they did so, one could clearly feel that the surging Nether River began to cal stopped
The four seals were equal to four da the external anchor points, the unknown Evil God would lose its external source of power and stimulation, and would require decades awaken even if it was not killed But in the end, for an Evil God of such scale, the difference between a thousand and a hundred years was not too huge—like the Steel Python of Stellaris, which needed a few days just to focus its attention
But it was not kno long the seven Gods could hold on
After Yolanda left to suppress the fourth seal, the fifth to leave was the God of Life
The mysterious deity which hid every aspect of Its appearance beneath a veil rematic It shook its head at the fifth seal core anchor point on the other side of the Nether River, and retfully, “It's difficult for a collective consciousness to develop civilization Life itself lives to survive, and the survivability of collective wills was truly powerful They would never have the drive or interest to ireater world”
“But there are ti to thereater leisure and safety compared to those that became civilization, and turned their eyes to the boundless Void and universe”
On the edge of another Nether River branch was an atypical planet unlike any other ever seen, for it was the ree as a star and was had the forlaciers had frozen upon its surface, cooled out of any laciers wereorgans spread out in orderly patterns over the shell of the planet, shaping a ine that a planetary lifefore, but instead was born as an individual into a society of collective organisms less than the size of a planet How much time would it have to develop and be nurtured, how est and how many journeys it had to take that it could obtain its present an and runic patterns were true tales and epics of their own
But now, it was all less The creature itself had perished, and the collective creature that had once devoured stars and wandered the Void is a planetary corpse, along with their body and lairs If there was a sun in that world, new creatures row over its remains in perhaps ten million years
Nevertheless, this world had no sun, for it too had perished—the war between Order and Chaos had long since extinguished all future and hope, reducing it to an Abyss of despair
The God of Life did not say anything else It hence left and arrive upon the reears-like seal core formations were activated—when the anchor point was determined, the black hole at the center of the world shone, and the massive volumes of Chaos were converted into fuel, thrown into its accretion disk and changed into radiating flow
The God of Life's poas so great that it did not turn into any sacred crest or recite holy words It did not even have to gesture or speak, for with its mere presence, its divine poould achieve what other Gods need to do with their full ht Between breaths, the fifth seal shone in white radiance, spilling dazzling living radiance so catching that even Joshua was slightly taken aback
“So powerful… No, the only deity with a singular divine title is just that special—I should have expected that”
Only those with great power could stand alone Otherwise they would not be worshi+pped, but a discriifted Joshua with a divine speck It was an object that detonates divine power in dire s of seven Gods—eight, including the Pentashade Dragon God, he was not a deity hiize the miraculous aspect of that divine power He could only use it as protection, with the actual for partially if Joshua was in danger
Still, the warrior exclai: it was not an inani had left hi cocoon wrapped in silk
Though unusual, it was certainly so a God of Life would do Hence, Joshua pocketed the cocoon, and continued ahead
They were now at the lowest layer of the Abyss, ht, nor could the aned with levels are co core anchor points the other Gods now guarded were not counted as Abysses
Even as they advanced, there were fewer Abysses while world fragments increased It was likely that the distance to be covered over the last hundred Abysses was further than the distance between the sixth hundredth and the ninth hundredth Abysses
Then, it was Ezerg's turn to leave
The God of Conservation and Reforman”
The God of Conservation and Reformation, who assuue with an accented tone He was much more human, one aspect that clearly seprates himself fro intently to what he would say after being called
It was a remarkable surprise
“To be frank, much of my memories had come back frohtly without idle chatter “That rascal the Sage is probably afraid that ould be corrupted—in the end, ti, not even True Gods That is why so many rules and restraints are enforced upon us, with our memories reduced to a fors”
The infor, unconcerned with the gaping Joshua, drew out a s pipe out of nowhere and put it into hismurkily, his hands clasped behind his back “Since so five or six thousand years, he neverhis idiot disciples… dragged away from their coffins and used after death—no rest even for the dead”
With those words, the dwarf turned toward the quiet God of Might and then to Joshua His steel-grey eyes were not actually as emotional as his words, but was instead a calm bewilderment as he sneered “You seem surprised Well, it's fine—as his Heir, you should know that the Sage had a dozen followers initially, correct?”
“Apostles” Joshua answered summarily He was naturally aware, but the warrior re's personality, albeit less than the details he revealed
In truth, he had thought of such possibilities… Now, it wastoo iht, Apostles—that hat the world called us then But in truth, he had only six disciples, and the reuards and those flatterers who do nothing apart froies for us”
Ezerg the dwarven deity then continued, “I havethe Second Apostle before becoe's early decades, his uard The latter was certainly useless, but I'm not to blame since no idiot would dare to attack us”
The dwarven God laughed at that, and look towards the other side of the Nether River
It was another dead world, a for turbulences of the six eleies would repel, clash and destroy each other, perpetuating a ceaseless destructive cycle Anyeleht the Evil Gods and died, before being revived by his natural ability into a God It is a long epic of trials and tribulations if I would go into detail, but it's a pity that we don't have the time now… Nevertheless, I'm not only myself, for after the Evil God destroyed most ofThat bastardpiece, and that probably applies to the other six kids as well”
“You're saying that the Seven Gods are all Apostles who had died after fighting the Evil Gods?”
Joshua had listened quietly, nodding slightly while narrowing his eyes “Resurrection…” he e first grasped I just never iendary cha us as True Gods”
At present, Joshua could resurrect others as well, but there are many conditions—one of which was a complete soul Furthermore, the revived person must be inferior in power coreatly reduced —after all, the new body would at most be Gold pinnacle
“That's probably it I actually did not think so at first… What if I were a Steel Python? After all, this world appears familiar, and the other little rascals don't look like his apostles They kept quiet about themselves, perhaps they already suspect who they actually were, and there reater secrets therein”
“I could keep thinking about it, but I don't want to do that now My quest is as difficult as the others”
Like a hu his hand on one of the scales over Joshua's chest armor His dwarven form was simply too small compared to the Giant God of Steel and could only reach that point—he turned after that, and fleards the devastated ele e for us old fools, reray divine radiance swept over the myriad-colored elemental world in the turn of an eye That unknown real core anchor point, but when drawn by a greatwas using his divine power to forcefully create an eleness! A vortex abruptly appeared in the world which was couided by ‘Divine Reformation', its own mass thus condensed and froze by itself!
“The Conservation of Heavens is Refored a new sealing core anchor point out of nothing, linking it to the other anchor points—at the speed of thought, the steel-gray light flash through the Void and built the sixth seal!
Meanwhile, the holy tome and steel chains that was held by the dwarven deities appeared in Joshua's hand However, the warrior realized that the sacred book was actually blank apart from the covers
[Excessive love is poison Unsheltered by pohatever grand revolution and progress would be killed—but theof e
He ields poatch over all life, for it's your age froeezer”
Joshua pocketed the toht and Justice
“Let's go”
The gray-haired knight said quietly, and the warrior nodded in return
One man and one God hence journeyed towards the final frontier of the Abyss
“‘Life's' talent is unquestionably the greatest a hoe should use our divine powers, He had already walked ahead towards the next level”
The God of Might and Justice was speaking with a thin voice in their descent “Of course, I was not aware that Ezerg was actually that formidable as well—his control over his power had improved exponentially, and it is profound too Usually unnoteworthy, he could well be the greatest ast us Seven”
“What about you?”
Joshua turned and asked with a deep voice without any expression “I could tell that while the divine power of the Seven Gods were generally the same, just as I saw that there are more anchor points to be controlled in outer layers, while the Chaos is more concentrated the deeper we venture—the Chaos concentration in the sixth seal is dozens of tireater than the outermost layer, and that is why the powerful God of Life and God of Conservation and Reforned there Ah, the sixth anchor point was even corrupted to the point that it's ruined, and repairing it would be unbelievably difficult
“God of Might, as the subjugator of the seventh seal layer, could you actually be the st the Seven?”
“No”
Zinsen, the God of Might and Justice shook his head, and actually laughed carefreely despite his rigid, griht be the weakest because my soul was heavily ruined in life that even my Mentor could not completely restore otten e's Apostles… Still, that was fine, since I could focus as the God of Might and Justice of Starfall”
“Do you understand why I'm directed to the seventh layer, Radcliffe?”
At that, they gray-haired God lifted his brow slightly “I' in return
In the past, to subjugate Mycroft the Steel Python, over dozens of deities and hundreds of Legendary champions had turned themselves into the seal that holds the Mother of All after it was almost completely corrupted by Chaos The Gods also exerted their full power to use the Infinite Horizon as a ha the Steel Python in the World Inner
