"Void Law? That's the first time I've heard of this idea. So after all that research, this is the result you came up with?" Void Law sounded like some kind of law, like the Heavenly Dao Law or Karma in fantasy novels. But clearly, the Void hadn't reached that level.
At first, he'd thought the so-called Void was some kind of creature, like the giant bugs in video games. But now that he thought about it, that didn't seem very likely.
Thinking back, the person who'd originally created this system probably hadn't even decided what the Void was supposed to be. By now, his God's Perspective was basically useless. Everyone knew that something like Holy Keisha's fall couldn't be changed.
"If things are as you say, would the Void's laws be better suited to this universe than Holy Keisha's Order of Justice?"
"I don't think so. Although I'll admit that in some respects, Holy Keisha's Order of Justice puts certain restrictions on this universe—or on Angel Civilization—it has also ensured the Known Universe remained orderly for a long time."
"The Void is far too full of unknowns. You can't control how much damage releasing it would do to this universe. That's why Space Principal chose to confront the Void directly."
"The Void is indeed unknown to the gods of our world. Your Highness is right. Even after studying it for ten thousand years, I still can't truly understand it."
"But there's one thing: Holy Keisha's order—or, rather, many gods believe that at this stage, a god's lifespan is infinite. That's a bad thing for the development of the universe."
"I don't understand. I'm still too young. What Eternal Life means for life or the universe—I might study it again in a few hundred or a few thousand years. Perhaps I'll find a different answer." Su Xinghe found it hard talking with great figures. He understood a little, sure, but he was also thoroughly confused. It was too soon for him to deal with people like this.
But one thing he could understand was that Carl believed the Void could help the mainstream gods, who thought their lifespans were infinite. In a fantasy world, immortals below the Great Luo Immortal level had finite lifespans, which was why they needed Peaches of Immortality, Ginseng Fruit, or other Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures to extend them.
In the Shenhe Universe, civilization was technological. Whether technology could achieve Eternal Life was hard to say. Morgana's Reincarnation Technology seemed more practical: transplanting some of a person's memories into another life-form through Gene Grafting, then taking that body over.
Still, a lifespan of thirty thousand years certainly met the standard for being called an "immortal." Physically, the Three Angel Kings could live even longer—truly approaching Eternal Life.
"Very well. You have permission. After you upgrade to a Fourth Generation God Body, you can connect to the Royal Authority yourself. My target is Holy Keisha. As for Her Highness Queen Hexi, I won't act against her. You'll have to face each other yourselves in the future. But it would be best if you didn't stand completely against me. I'm doing this for the future of Shenhe Civilization."
"So I hope Your Highness can understand Carl's good intentions."
Su Xinghe stood up without saying anything. Everyone in the universe knew Death God Karl was studying the Void. Besides, he could believe that Holy Keisha might not be able to beat Space Principal in overall strength, but the idea that she couldn't handle Death God Karl was ridiculous.
So Carl had the Great Clock and was studying the Void, yet the great figures hadn't made a move. Clearly, they knew something—at the very least, Space, Keisha, and Hexi understood the situation perfectly well.
In the end, Earth was the only complete sacrifice. Although it had barely become an Aerospace Civilization with the gods' help, the cost had been immense.
Billions of people had died, leaving fewer than two billion. Apart from Huaxia, every other country had taken a devastating hit, turning into a beginner's trial ground for the gods.
"Male God, Queen Keisha sent me to bring you to Angel City. Since you've met Queen Hexi, she also wants to ask what Death God Karl talked to you about. He's not exactly a good person." Angel Yan hurried over as soon as Su Xinghe came out.
She'd originally intended to enter the Styx Galaxy, but Sno had stopped her. It wasn't that she couldn't beat him; there was simply no need. Angel Civilization and the Styx Galaxy had no reason to go to war.
"It was nothing. I'm the Prince of Shenhe Civilization and the future Main God. He wouldn't do anything to me, especially since we go way back. We talked about some Royal Family matters, then the Void. He also gave me something useful: permission to use the Great Clock."
At the mention of permission to use the Great Clock, Angel Yan froze. It was the most powerful Celestial Computer in the Known Universe. This kid still looked so young, yet already had a cheat like that. She, the Left-Wing Guardian, didn't even have one yet.
"You're the Left-Wing Guardian, Yan, and you're over seven thousand years old. If it weren't for Hexi, I'd have wanted you as my Guardian Angel. But for now, you should follow your Queen's original plan and be paired with Galaxy Power. He may be my stand-in, but he'll still become very powerful. At the very least, he'll reach Fourth Generation King-level Main God. Even if he's not as strong as Holy Keisha, he'll be about as strong as Morgana."
"How do you know so much? Did Death God Karl tell you?"
"No, that can't be it. The Great Clock may be powerful, but it couldn't possibly reveal things about Angel Internal. Queen Keisha isn't what you think she is. So how did you learn all this?" Angel Yan changed tack. Only Angel Internal knew she'd been paired with Galaxy Power, and not many people knew about it. Aside from Keisha and Hexi, only a few High Guard Angels knew.
"Heh, don't be nervous, pretty lady. I can get some information about an Angel at your level. Besides, even if all of this information were public, it wouldn't be any important secret, would it?"
Angel Yan had plenty going for her, and her long legs were especially nice. But when he thought about it, Hexi was probably no less attractive than Angel Yan.
As for being able to see her information, that was just a bluff. He couldn't access the Angel Network yet, and he couldn't tell her he had God's Perspective, so this was the only excuse he could use. Angel Yan was a bit of a blockhead and easy to fool. A little lie would get him through.
"Do you think I'm easy to fool?"
"I don't know what your Gene Trait is, and now you've got permission to use the Great Clock, so you must be powerful. But if anyone enters the Angel Civilization's network, Queen Keisha will know immediately. Even Death God Karl and Space Principal can't avoid that. So are you going to tell your big sister the truth?"
