Pushing "Mount Tai"
Adam wasn't surprised by what Kronos said.
Based on his understanding of Kronos, after obtaining the Dice of Probability from Will, he should go see Ouroboros.
Adam didn't say much, but simply waved his hand to open a teleportation portal.
Kronos was able to locate the Giant King’s Court, the point of contact between the Forsaken Land of the Gods and the outside world, but the True Creator had already closed that exit.
Therefore, Kronos could not enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods at all.
But Amon and Ada were completely different.
Amon was able to find the original loophole in the Forsaken Land of the Gods and enter it directly through Forsaken Land of the Gods.
Adam, on the other hand, was able to enter directly from the source, since in a sense, he was one with the True Creator.
The Divine Kingdom belonging to the True Creator can naturally be considered his.
Without hesitation, Kronos stepped directly into the teleportation portal.
The surrounding Spirit World world flashed by, and Kronos arrived directly in the Forsaken Land of the Gods.
While Kronos didn't know much about this place, he had spent some time there.
The harsh environment here has absolutely no effect on Kronos.
So after carefully determining the direction, he headed towards the location deep within the Holy Mountain.
It wasn't that Adam couldn't locate the Holy Mountain, but rather that he couldn't.
Whether it was the True Creator or Ouroboros, they still harbored a great deal of rejection towards Adam.
Once they realize that Adam's power has appeared, they will definitely retaliate immediately.
If the transmission is interrupted, it's a minor issue if Kronos fails to transmit successfully; the real problem would be if he gets lost in the Spirit World.
Therefore, Adam could only choose a location far from the Holy Mountain and then let Kronos go there on his own.
Kronos knew the way well and arrived at the Holy Mountain in no time.
But before he could go inside, a figure emerged from the Holy Mountain.
This person was nearly 2.3 meters tall, with a slightly hunched back, completely white hair, wrinkles at the corners of his eyes, and a scar on his lip. He wore a dark black Clergy robe, and his deep brown eyes were deep and calm.
This is Sitifu, the "Angel of Holy Word" responsible for inspecting the Divine Kingdom True Creator.
Calling it sacred words is nothing but self-aggrandizement; he's just a Sequence Two Profane Presbyter.
The last time Kronos was brought here by Ouroboros, he didn't see him, because Ouroboros had guided him.
This time, Kronos arrived uninvited, and the Angel of Holy Word naturally had to perform his duties.
"You blasphemer, who has trespassed into the Divine Kingdom, you deserve to die here."
Kronos didn't want to make a move at this time, after all, he was there to negotiate a deal.
So he quickly said, "You've misunderstood. I'm here to see Ouroboros. You can inform him."
Sitifu responded, "His Highness Ouroboros would never associate with blasphemers like you. You are insulting him."
Kronos sighed. What terrible things had the True Creator done? A perfectly good Angel had gone completely insane.
It's incredibly difficult to have a normal conversation with members of the Aurora Order Aurora Order; they all have their own unique thought processes.
With this in mind, Kronos knew that he had no choice but to take action.
He could only minimize the misunderstanding by quickly and harmlessly taking down Sitifu.
Next, Kronos will be unable to speak.
The Profane Presbyter's greatest ability is to take advantage of the other party's answer, extract parts of it or amplify the ambiguity, and create a kind of magical effect.
Kronos had no way to counter this ability; the best approach was simply to avoid it.
So when Kronos waved his hand, countless Information Stream swarmed towards Sitifu.
Sitifu said, "I knew it! You're a despicable thief. Otherwise, why would you have attacked directly?"
Kronos did not react to these words.
He understood that Sitifu was trying to entice him to speak, thereby giving him the strength to retaliate.
Seeing that Kronos remained silent, he had no choice but to use other powers.
A head, still covered in blood, had somehow grown out of Sitifu's left shoulder. It looked very similar to Steve, but much younger, appearing to be only in his forties.
Around this head grow two skinless, bloody arms that Grazing different spirits and can use various Beyonder Ability.
As the Information Stream towards him, Stino used his Moon Pathway ability to become ethereal, attempting to use it to evade Kronos's attack.
Although there is no Moon or moonlight in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, Sitifu used other powers to create a small Moon and used its faint moonlight to achieve moonification.
However, it is clear that Kronos's attack could not have been so simple.
Kronos's Information Stream immediately turned its attention to the small Moon floating above his head, and then rushed directly towards it.
The knowledge controlled by Kronos is clearly beyond the capacity of this small Moon to withstand.
The Moon burst open like a balloon that had been pricked by a needle.
After the moonlight disappeared, Sitifu's moon-transformation naturally disappeared as well.
Then this knowledge flowed into Stino's head.
Sitifu, whose mind was already not very sharp, collapsed to the ground after being hit by such a shock, clutching his head and convulsing.
This difference in strength isn't unreasonable, after all, Kronos is the King of Angel, while Sitifu is just an ordinary Angel.
Kronos could have easily shot him in the head, but he didn't.
Although an Angel wouldn't die from a headshot, he held back to avoid misunderstandings.
After taking down Sitifu, Kronos looked into the interior of the Holy Mountain and said, "Now that you're here, you can deal with your own people."
As soon as Kronos finished speaking, a figure appeared in the direction of his gaze—it was Ouroboros.
After all, he is the King of Angel with two special abilities. There's no way he wouldn't know that a fight has broken out right on his own doorstep.
So Ouroboros was already there the moment the two started fighting.
Upon seeing Ouroboros appear, Sitifu suddenly unleashed a surge of power, shouting, "Your Highness, this is the Blasphemer! Capture him quickly!"
Kronos could only smile wryly at Sitifu's remarks; his brain had been completely scrambled.
Ouroboros, seemingly ignoring his words, said to Kronos, "Let's go inside and talk. He's fine; he'll be alright in a bit."
Since Ouroboros had already said so, Kronos naturally had no objections.
To everyone's surprise, Ouroboros actually started talking to this "blasphemer." Sitifu shouted angrily, "Ouroboros, have you betrayed the Lord? How dare you associate with a blasphemer! Or are you a blasphemer yourself?!"
Ouroboros acted as if he hadn't heard a thing about such mindless talk, and continued leading Kronos inside.
Kronos couldn't help but ask, somewhat curiously, "Aren't you angry about these comments?"
If it were Kronos, he most likely wouldn't be able to tolerate it; he'd have to Punishment him somehow.
Ouroboros replied, "It's not his fault. It's the Lord's state that affected him, which is why he acted this way. Therefore, I naturally don't blame him."
This is Ouroboros, the King of Angel mind is now consumed by reason.
In Ouroboros's view, there are only two things in the world that could make him abandon his reason.
First, it is the Lord's command; second, it is the guidance of Fate.
That is why, even though his divine path was severed, Ouroboros did not seek out Kronos like Will, and instead calmly accepted it.
Although no one had told Kronos what the deal was about today, he naturally understood it in his heart.
Will Unsetin gave up his Uniqueness, so the only thing Ouroboros could help him with was the Beyonder Characteristic of the Snake of Mercury.
Unlike Will, who simply passes on the Dice of Probability, Ouroboros needs to have that Beyonder Characteristic stripped from his body—a process fraught with immeasurable Affliction and danger.
Even so, Ouroboros still spoke about it calmly last time.
Kronos truly admired this state of mind.
The two arrived at the core area of Holy Mountain, where the True Creator was hanging there.
The surrounding murmurs made Kronos feel somewhat oppressed, but they didn't really affect him.
After the two stood still, Ouroboros spoke first, "The reason why Fate has been so kind to you must be because you hold the Authority of Time, right?"
Although he didn't have much interaction with Kronos, he could guess the general idea.
Seeing that Ouroboros was so straightforward, Kronos nodded and did not hide anything.
Ouroboros continued, "You want to trade with me? No problem. I only have one request: let my Lord return to normal, even if it's just for a few minutes. Can you do that?"
"If you do it, I'll give you whatever you want, with Fate as our witness."
Upon hearing this, Kronos was genuinely surprised; he hadn't expected Ouroboros to make such a demand.
Would you be willing to sacrifice your already fused Beyonder Characteristic just to restore the True Creator to normal for a few minutes?
As for this task, Kronos might actually be able to accomplish it.
The True Creator is the True God, and is indeed of a higher status than Kronos.
However, as long as he was willing to grind things out slowly and provided enough Spirituality energy, Kronos was confident that he could push his time forward by thousands of years.
After all, Kronos was no longer that little Angel, but a King of Angel.
Therefore, Kronos hesitated for a moment, then said, "I might be able to do it, but you must prepare enough Potions to replenish my Spirituality."
Without a word, Ouroboros vanished from the spot.
In the blink of an eye, he was back, carrying a box of Potions.
Upon closer inspection, Kronos realized they were all from the Life-Giver's Recovery Potions.
However, it was clearly not a recent transaction, because Kronos could see a strong sense of time on it.
The oldest of these may even predate the Fourth Epoch.
This was the accumulation of Ouroboros, or rather, the Ancient Sun God.
If it weren't for the fact that there are many ways to suppress the Potions's Spirituality, Kronos wouldn't have dared to try this artifact-level Potions.
Seeing that Ouroboros was ready, Kronos naturally had no reason to refuse.
In any case, this matter won't cause any harm to Kronos.
Even if it's difficult to push forward the time of the True Creator, it only consumes Spirituality and won't cause any backlash, since it won't have any impact on this world.
Kronos sat cross-legged facing the enormous Hanged Man, and then the projection of the River of Time appeared directly, encompassing the True Creator.
As Kronos exerted his power, he realized for the first time just how difficult it was to advance the timeline of a True God.
If pushing a Demigod is like pushing a stone, then Angel is probably a small hill, and the True Creator at this point, if not Mount Tai, is certainly not far off.
Given the current state of the River of Time, it is clearly impossible for it to move Mount Tai, because the projected power is too weak.
Without hesitation, Kronos began to fully expend his Spirituality to strengthen the power of the River of Time.
As Kronos's Spirituality rapidly diminished, the projection of the River of Time became increasingly solid.
If Kronos were a True God at this point, he might have been able to summon the true River of Time directly.
After less than five minutes, Kronos's Spirituality completely dried up, while that "Mount Tai" has remained unmoved to this day.
Kronos spoke up, "Potions!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Ouroboros poured all three vials of Potions down Kronos.
For an Angel, one bottle of the Life-Giver's Potions is enough.
As for the King of Angel, three bottles are actually a bit too few; they simply cannot fully replenish one's Spirituality.
However, you can only drink this much at once. If you drink any more, you won't be able to fully absorb it, and you'll waste the Potions's power.
Clearly, Ouroboros understood this principle.
Back when the eight King of Angel fought alongside the Ancient Sun God, he was the least likely to be injured, thanks to the favor of Fate.
Therefore, he was always the one administering the Potions to the other King of Angel, so it was a piece of cake for him.
After consuming the three vials of Potions, Kronos regained more than two-thirds of his Spirituality.
Kronos continued to "burn" his own Spirituality, further solidifying the River of Time and bringing forth even greater power.
After Ouroboros administered the Potions three more times, the River of Time appeared to flow like a real river in the void.
This was already the most powerful state below that of True God. Kronos gently urged the River of Time and pushed it towards this "Mount Tai".
