Fate or Coincidence?

"Oops..."

The Insects sat on the ground, out of sight of the others, fiddling with two insects.

Although he only has the ability to manipulate insects, this ability is not entirely useless.

For example, his ability hides two characteristics.

Firstly, the insects he enlightens will develop a little intelligence.

Secondly, insects can be influenced by him to choose their evolutionary direction, and can also Mutual Consumption Evolution.

However, no matter how much these insects evolve, they can't advance to a higher level.

Unless they can cultivate on their own, they will never be able to become extraordinary beings.

Thinking of this, the Insects began to grind its teeth. "If it weren't for the strange insects native to this planet that could be of some use, I would want to die."

This planet has many insects that don't exist on Earth.

For example, the insect that gnaws on stones— the Insects don't know what it's called, so they simply call it a stone worm.

There is also a Holy Beetle, which does exist on Earth, but the Holy Beetle in the two places have different living habits.

People on Earth like to roll dung balls, while people here like to eat meat.

Hmm, it's a small point of knowledge, but what's the use of it?

Several days later, in the Central Continent, in a remote place in the northwest.

Two figures stood together, staring at each other; one was resurrected, and the other was a ghost.

They appeared together mysteriously, each with 1,000 men. After some thought, they decided to avoid conflict and take a detour.

As a result, the two ran into each other again after going around in circles.

"Is this a case of enemies meeting on a narrow road, or is it an inescapable destiny?"

Jiang Chen chuckled as he spoke, and the Soul-Replaced Bai Ye reached out and took out a twig, drawing a line on the ground.

"If we keep going like this, we'll miss the best time. Let's just leave it here. Use this line as the boundary: the north is yours, and the south is mine."

"I agree."

Thus, the two reached an agreement and informed their followers.

Upon learning of this news, followers of both sides referred to this event as the Divine Pact.

The abilities of the deceased and Jiang Chen were originally one ability split into two.

Furthermore, the fact that one of them obtained Bai Ye's soul and the other obtained Bai Ye's physical body is quite intriguing.

Among them, Jiang Chen's ability is resurrection.

The ability that the Soul-Replaced Bai Ye can use is Soul Transfer.

If we're talking about specific differences, then Jiang Chen's ability is to resurrect the dead as shadows.

The spirit of the dead is a transferred soul, allowing the soul of a living being to attach itself to any object, even an inanimate one.

As both sides developed, the local ecological environment became strange, and the vitality of the place faded away, gradually being shrouded in a layer of death.

Some inhuman beings gradually appeared among the minions of the dead.

For example, Walking Corpses and Undead Creatures whose bodies are dead but whose souls remain.

Meanwhile, more and more Shadow Creatures gradually appeared among Jiang Chen's men.

Perhaps because of the two of them, a strange white mist gradually rose up in the area, and some horrific screams often echoed through the forest.

And it gradually grew dark, as if the mist had diluted the sunlight.

It must be said that the two were indeed in sync; upon noticing this change, both immediately thought of the other.

It must be the other party's capabilities that caused this negative impact!

But it doesn't matter, I was going to kill that guy anyway! x2

At the northernmost point of the Central Continent, near the sea, it is surrounded by mountains, resembling a giant wall.

A civilization settled here, and they built houses at the foot of the mountain, which have grown into a village.

The god of this civilization is called the God of Judgment.

This deity adheres to the principle of absolute fairness.

He established strict laws, and if the king violated the law, the gods would immediately punish him and execute him.

Therefore, the people of this civilization began to regard the rules set by the gods as incomparably sacred treaties.

This treaty is more important than their lives.

If they dare to swear an oath on a treaty, they will be under God's watchful eye, and if they break the treaty, God will punish them.

And this god is 006.

Meng Qing looked at the group of people below, and countless Silk Thread extended from his hands, connecting to the heads of these people.

This is Meng Qing's second storyline, essentially a lower-budget version of Death.

However, he couldn't disconnect or reconnect the wires; he could only fidget with them or bundle them together.

These threads, when tied together, represent that the lives of these people are intertwined; they share both glory and ruin.

But correspondingly, their vitality will become exceptionally strong.

In the words of Death, it means that the life line is very thick and strong, making it very difficult to die.

When Meng Qing manipulates the Silk Thread, it weakens the lifelines of these people.

What humans call trial is actually just him pulling a Silk Thread out of the group and manipulating it slightly, and that person will naturally face misfortune or life-or-death danger.

It was because of this incident that people spontaneously referred to Meng Qing as the God of Judgment, rather than the God of Destiny.

Meng Qing did not give any answer to this.

It's pointless to waste time and effort correcting these things. The authority of God is given by people. If they think you are the God of War, then you are the God of War.

So let them be.

These people may not even realize that everything they do goes very smoothly, and good fortune always seems to accompany them.

They went to cut down trees, and just then a bear rampaged through the forest, knocking down several trees right in front of them.

They went hunting, but the rabbit ran into a tree and passed out.

Everything went too smoothly.

But they weren't surprised; they firmly believed that these were gifts from the gods, and that as long as they followed the rules set by the gods, the gods would protect them.

Extending outwards from here, across the sea, lies another civilization.

The people here worship the God of Chaos, also known as 009.

The God of Chaos imparts knowledge and tells stories to the people every day, these words guiding and brainwashing them.

Gradually, those people became fanatical believers.

People worshiped gods all day long, and anyone who dared to disobey the gods or make rebellious remarks would be regarded as a heretic and burned at the stake.

The gods will reward them by giving them sacred artifacts with great power.

For now, the gods have only given them a brazier.

But the fire in this brazier never goes out; it can even burn in water. People call this flame the sacred fire.

That's right, this brazier is a split off from 009.

But why did it split off a brazier?

Because 009's abilities were forcibly restricted.

009 grabbed his left hand with his right hand and tried desperately to tear it off, but no matter what he did, his left arm wouldn't budge.

Because his ability to split has been subject to a time limit.

Clearly, this was something Chen Ye did on purpose.

"How long exactly is this timeframe? When will it be able to split again?"

009 bit his fingernail with his teeth; the abilities each of them could use must have been calculated by Chen Ye.

Since Chen Ye allowed him to use his splitting ability, it's only natural that he wouldn't let him use it casually.

009 originally intended to designate a more useful splitter.

However, after thinking about it, he realized that at the current stage, only these kinds of life-related splitting devices would be useful.

But he never expected that a brazier would split off from the "Life" category.

"No, I need to think about it some more."
