Chapter 1007 - The Central Continent Prepares For War (1/2)

-----

Within the central continent of the Realm of Vida, the Great Gods were preparing themselves for Kireina's arrival, soon enough, they knew it very well that she would emerge!

Due to this, many of the population of Gods of the central continent, which were hundreds, were all rushing around, preparing all sorts of Divine Formations, reinforcing the Divine Holy Barrier of the Central Continent, and more.

The Gods rushed across the immense Divine Area where many of them resided, which was composed of pieces of every God that had joined the Central Continent Pantheons, making it a communal space filled with all sorts of divine materials and environments where many Gods lived within…

They carried all sorts of Divine Materials and many other things, being led by the Subordinate Gods of Agatha, the Great Goddess of Birth and Wisdom.

Many majestic figures, Heroic Gods wearing all sorts of colorful and shiny armors and divine weapons, who used to be Legendary Heroes when they were mortals led the lesser Gods.

”Hurry, set up that Divine Material over there!”

”The Heavenly Dew Fountain should be placed there…”

”Oi, hurry up!”

”Don't slack off or your contribution points will go down!”

The tyrannical Gods thought they were better than the common God population due to serving directly to Agatha, and also being her children, born from her very womb through the power of her Great Divinity of Birth and Wisdom, making them Divine Species of powerful Legendary Heroes.

”Sigh…”

”This is a lot of preparation, and we are not even sure if she's going to attack us!”

”Why are we preparing so much? Didn't Kireina said she wasn't going to be an evil being?”

”Indeed, she said she changed nature!”

”I have bought her many things, and I've even left her my scrolls and more, and she had crafted all the divine technique scrolls I wanted!”

”She's not really a bad person, why can't the Great Gods just speak with her instead?”

The Gods were mostly influenced by Kireina's great good deeds, as she continuously worked diligently in the Interdimensional Merchant Shop, selling all sorts of amazing items and even crafting Divine Technique Scrolls almost for free as long as they gave her the material ingredients!

Then why? Why was she seen as a menace?

”You dare defy Agatha-sama?!”

”N-No! S-Sorry!”

Well, they had no other option, a large amount of the god population of the central continent was weak Living Deities, Demigods, and Gods that had come here for protection. As long as they joined these sect-like pantheons, they would be given protection in exchange for their hard work.

In the world of Genesis, Gods were not almighty, and due to this, if they were not backed up by a big pantheon, they could get caught by a powerful demon god and killed in the spot! Even more, now that everyone in the world of Genesis was able to devour other Gods and assimilate their divinities without issues thanks to the widely distributed Divinity Devouring Crystals…

However, most of the mortals and the weakest Living Deities, Demigods, and Gods were being influenced by Kireina in even another way the other Gods had no idea of!

And that was through… Dreams!

Indeed, through Dreams, they all had been having amazing dreams, dreams of greatness, of beauty, of fulfillment, of treasures, each night, all these mortals and gods have been dreaming about these things, and through this, they had been slowly encroached by Kireina, unknowingly.

However, certain Gods were not affected by the dreams, or simply didn't even have them, usually, these Gods would be the closest ones to Great Gods, such as all these Heroic Gods.

Amongst them, there was a group of former Heroes who had grown incredibly quickly guided by the Seven Virtues, or the Commandments, as they were called by most Gods.

Isaac and his party had been entering all sorts of Dungeons since they were brought to the central continent, frantically leveling up while also going through countless challenges. Through this, they gained a lot of real battle experience in this small amount of time and even polished and leveled up their Skills and special Abilities to new heights of power.

And now, all of them had already reached the level of Godhood, just recently, all of them had reached Rank 4 God Realm, and were steadily increasing their cultivation through special methods and formations made by the Great Gods that nurtured them.

There were ways for very strong Gods to easily raise mortals into godhood and even help them get from Living Deity to Demigod and then God in a short time! Kireina was not the only one with such tricks below her sleeve.

There were all sorts of items for this, Gods had many ways to craft items and artifacts, although their greatest limitation was always resources. However, Great Gods that directly served Supreme Gods had no such problems!

They had so many resources that the only limitation was the recipes. Through this, they created special concoctions that enhanced cultivation speed to insane levels and even special Elixirs that refined the bodies of Gods to enhance them even further. There were also special Divine Formations where a Demigod, after consuming such potions and elixirs, could sit and meditate and quickly cross through Ranks at an insane speed!

Just like now…

The golden-brown-haired Isaac opened his aquamarine eyes shining with many sparkles resembling stars, as he glanced at the scene in front of him with awe.

His own body was evolving once more and… just like that, he had already reached Rank 5!

Such an amazing cultivation speed!

But this wasn't only because of all the help, but also because of his amazing talent given to him through his Divine Epic and the Blessing of the Supreme God of Star Oceans.

Through this outstanding combination of circumstances, he had already crossed into a new Rank.

Naturally, there should be a Heavenly Tribulation emerging!

And so it did!

CRAAASH!

A giant crack in space opened as a large figure emerged, resembling a titan made of holy light wielding a crown of stars, a Starlight Spirit Titan, a powerful Heavenly Tribulation!

Isaac smiled confidently as his eyes flashed with iridescent light, his shiny white armor and his enormous golden blade were infused with his divinity as he jumped into the air and raised his blade against the titan!

”Starlight Blade Cross!”
