A God Takes Action

"What do you think you're doing?!"

Tyler, the red-skinned giant at the head of the group, said in a muffled voice, "The best place should be given to us to live in!"

"Have you gone mad? A bunch of idiots, daring to defy your masters—defy us gods?" Natalie rebuked them angrily.

Tyler snorted disdainfully. "You false gods—others might not know what you are, but we do!"

"You aren't gods at all. You're all fakes, and you're not much better than us!"

"Don't think I don't know. This divine mountain wasn't yours either—it belonged to the original god!"

"You've seized someone else's things. Why can't we?"

"Roar!"

It let out a furious roar.

Tim, who looked young and immature, flushed red.

"You!" Farouk's face was filled with rage.

Natalie flew into a rage from embarrassment and snapped in a shrill voice, "How are we not gods?"

"We have long lives and great power!"

"Comparing us to some nonexistent, illusory god? Hmph!"

She snorted. "That god was only imagined by those natives. It never existed, so this land belongs to no one!"

"At least we truly exist! What about it?" Natalie sneered. "Omnipotent, all-knowing? Creator of all things? What a joke!"

"How could such a being possibly exist?"

"Compared to that nonexistent thing, we are the true gods! Gods in every sense of the word!" she sneered.

Tyler froze for a moment, then gave a disdainful snort. "False gods, all of you!"

"You sure talk a lot. Move aside!" it barked.

"You're courting death!"

Watching the battlefield quickly descend into chaos, with screams and wails ringing out without end, countless netizens were stunned.

The things those people had said earlier had especially shocked them beyond belief.

At the same time, they noticed something.

The god seemed never to have appeared?

Goody-Goody Rabbit and the others found it unbelievable.

Seeing the stunned netizens and realizing he had a chance to refute them, Old Wang Next Door immediately burst into laughter.

"Hahaha, did you see that?"

"These Aliens picked the Divine Fruit, yet that elusive god never appeared!"

"And those prehistoric humans actually dared to blaspheme god, saying so many blasphemous things—things that made even us burn with rage when we heard them. Yet that elusive god didn't punish them?"

"And these Aliens occupied the divine mountain, yet it didn't angrily appear?"

"What does that mean?"

"It means god doesn't exist at all. Everything before was just a coincidence!"

Old Wang Next Door laughed loudly, as though he had regained the upper hand, speaking with utmost arrogance.

"Even if it exists, it's probably just an Alien. Faced with so many Aliens, it doesn't dare show itself at all, hahaha..."

Finally, Old Wang Next Door delivered the killing blow, mocking, "So how do you explain the fact that god didn't appear?"

As Old Wang Next Door spoke, a whole group of people immediately chimed in.

"Hahaha, Old Wang Next Door is right. How are you going to prove that elusive god ever existed now? Since it still hasn't appeared, that definitely means it doesn't exist!"

"Agreed!"

"Everyone's right!"

Faced with the remarks from Brave Niu Niu's group, Goody-Goody Rabbit, Tiger Smells Roses, Brave Niu Niu, A Cat, and the others were furious.

Not only them—even Professor Chen at the Prehistoric Ruins frowned at Old Wang Next Door's radical remarks, feeling that these people were jumping to conclusions too quickly. How could a god think the same way humans did?

Likewise, in Father Charlie's church, the priests were filled with righteous indignation.

Yet despite their anger, they could not think of anything to say in rebuttal.

However, just as they argued among themselves and everything descended into chaos, a new development appeared in the film.

After fighting for quite a while, Tyler had been completely pushed into a disadvantage against Natalie and the others, who could fly, as well as the giants dying one after another. Its eyes reddened, and madness flashed within them.

Then, under Natalie and the others' stunned gazes and the shock of more than a billion netizens, it directly snapped the Tree of Life in half at the waist and charged headlong into it.

"Have you gone mad?"

"Stop!"

Natalie and the others screamed sharply.

Yet no matter how they berated and roared, they could not undo what had already happened.

Boom!

Amidst creaking groans, the Tree of Life, over a thousand meters tall, slowly toppled.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Amid the tremendous roar, a hole opened in the sky thick with Dark Clouds, as though the heavens themselves had collapsed.

Thunder rumbled.

Soon, as the trunk crashed fully onto the ground, a massive tremor spread out.

The mountains and earth shook. In the eyes of countless people, heaven and earth seemed to be swaying.

Boom!

A nearby volcano erupted, lava splashing everywhere. The sea of molten fire swallowed everything, while black volcanic ash shot into the sky and merged with the dark clouds, turning heaven and earth pitch-black.

This catastrophic scene left Natalie, the others, and the netizens utterly stunned.

At that moment, Brave Niu Niu thought of something. Filled with shock, he rapidly typed away.

"This scene of the divine tree collapsing and the sky falling reminded me of a myth—Gonggong crashing into the Pillar of Heaven. The pillar fell, the earth's supports broke. There's also the story of the sky-reaching Jianmu being cut down."

"Even in Ragnarok, at the end of Norse Mythology, there is a scene where the roots of the World Tree are gnawed away before it collapses."

As soon as he said that, a huge number of netizens froze, their faces filled with emotion and astonishment.

Now that he mentioned it, the similarities really were striking!

Seeing this, Old Wang Next Door immediately sneered and commented, "Hehehe, my stomach hurts from laughing. You people can connect anything to some ancient story."

"Fine, I won't argue with you about that. What I want to say is, even the Tree of Life has fallen, yet that vaguely existing god still hasn't acted. Such blasphemy hasn't brought down any divine punishment either. Doesn't that prove something?"

"God doesn't exist at all! It's completely made up! Or maybe He's just some weak alien who doesn't dare make a move! Hahahaha..."

"You!" Faced with his taunting and laughter, Brave Niu Niu's face flushed red, but he could not find any words to refute him.

Suddenly, just as they were feeling unwilling and stifled, a new development appeared on the scene.

Natalie screamed shrilly, "Do you know what you've done? You actually dared to destroy our divine tree!"

"Idiot!"

"Damn it!"

The other nine were equally enraged.

Tyler laughed madly. "Hahaha, this is your divine tree?"

"Don't make me laugh to death!"

"It isn't yours anyway. It belongs to that god. So what if I broke it..."

However, before he could finish speaking, a terrifying phenomenon appeared in the sky.

Not only were they stunned, but countless netizens also slowly widened their eyes as far as they could go.

In the gloomy, cloud-covered sky, black as pitch and so dark one could not see one's own hand, a white ring of immeasurable length had appeared at some unknown point.

Holy and sacred!

Old Wang Next Door, who had been about to continue typing his argument, gradually went blank-faced.

Professor Chen at the Prehistoric Ruins site, Father Charlie in the church, Director Lu, Goody-Goody Rabbit, Brave Niu Niu, and the rest.

Along with countless netizens, all of them stood frozen, staring dumbfounded at the sky as it began to glow white.

"What is that?!"

"This...!"
