Ten days later, Adam flew over the God War Ruins in a very high-profile manner, heading straight for the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

Since he had decided to attract everyone's attention with his own affairs, Adam naturally wouldn't choose a method that was too secretive.

Leodero, Aucuses, Herabergen still had some doubts about this.

Adam knew them very well; if Adam had chosen to go to the Spirit World, they wouldn't have noticed much of what was going on.

Adam's current actions are tantamount to forcing them to intervene.

But even though they felt Adam's actions were problematic, the three of them couldn't care less about that now.

They no longer have the confidence to surpass Adam; if Adam were to merge with the True Creator, they would be in immediate danger.

In fact, Adam had no intention of attacking them.

The Apocalypse is near; every extra helper brings more hope.

Becoming God Almighty might be a better option, but it's not that easy.

If Adam exerts too much pressure, these three will switch from being enemies to allies and join forces against Adam.

There's even a possibility that they might ultimately choose to defect to the enemy to save their lives.

Therefore, at least for the time being, Adam has no intention of taking action against them.

Adam hadn't revealed this idea to them, and of course, even if he had, they wouldn't have believed him.

Therefore, when they saw Adam about to attack the True Creator, all three of them panicked.

Regardless of Adam's intentions, they had no choice but to act.

It's quite interesting to think about. The Church of Storms, the Church of the Eternal Blazing Sun, and the Church of Knowledge were the ones who were most ruthless towards the Aurora Order.

These three individuals targeted the True Creator not only because he was a mad "evil god," but also because of the conflict between their Pathway and their fear of the Ancient Sun God.

Now they're actually going to help the True Creator; what a strange twist of fate!

The three gods were certainly fast, but Adam still made the first move.

While the three were setting off, Adam had already arrived at the Gate of the Giant King’s Court.

Adam could have exploited the loophole to enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods, but he didn't, because if he had, the other gods wouldn't have been able to enter.

Adam chose the Forsaken Land of the Gods the battlefield, firstly because it could be considered his home ground, and secondly because the area offered good protection against sensory interference; as long as Stiano didn't use his full sensory power, he wouldn't discover anything.

At the thought of Adam, the entire Giant King’s Court vanished.

Visionary can conjure up ideas, and naturally, he can also make them disappear.

After the Giant King’s Court disappeared, Adam strolled casually into the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

They hadn't gone far when a Giant hanging upside down appeared out of thin air.

The True Creator was a little slower to react, but by then he knew that Adam was coming for him.

Don't be fooled by the fact that the True Creator, in a conscious state, was willing to merge with Adam; in a state of madness, he was driven only by biological instincts, namely, self-preservation.

Therefore, the True Creator at this point could not simply surrender, and so a sea of Corruption Descent directly upon the land.

At the same time, the rap of the True Creator also Descent.

This kind of rap has a significant impact on ordinary people, but for Adam, it's like nothing at all; it has no effect whatsoever.

The Corruption ocean swept towards Adam, but ultimately stopped about three meters in front of Adam, unable to go any further.

In terms of strength, Adam was definitely the pinnacle among single -Pathway True God, after all, he possessed everything of the Ancient Sun God, so the True Creator could not do anything to him.

However, Adam had no intention of intervening; he simply remained in a stalemate with the True Creator.

Because he was still waiting, waiting for everyone to arrive.

A few seconds later, three figures appeared behind Adam: Leodero, Aucuses, Herabergen.

Both Herabergen and Aucuses watched the battle unfold with serious expressions, while Leodero wore a complex expression.

Given Leodero's character and Pathway, he really wasn't the type to orchestrate Betrayal Banquet.

Therefore, he was actually being coerced at the time.

Herabergen and Aucuses have already made their move, so even if he doesn't, it won't make any difference.

Furthermore, since no one can resist the temptation of becoming a god, he ultimately joined in this Betrayal Banquet.

Now, having witnessed once again the embodiment of the divinity and humanity of the Ancient Sun God, Leodero felt a complex mix of emotions.

Complex as it may be, his resolve remained firm at that moment.

Regardless of anything else, one's own destiny and Sequence are the most important things.

If the Ancient Sun God has returned to collect a debt, then he will absolutely fight to the death and will not surrender easily.

Once he made up his mind, he was absolutely ruthless in taking action.

Before the three of them could even make a move, the True Creator struck first.

After bypassing Adam, the Corruption ocean came straight for the three of them.

To the True Creator, all four people before him are his enemies, without distinction.

Seeing this, Herabergen said somewhat jokingly, "I thought it would be the four of us ganging up on Adam, but it turns out it's the Hanged Man against the four of us."

Aucuses, standing nearby, said very seriously, "If it weren't for the fact that Adam would pose a threat to us, I would rather he were swallowed by Adam."

"This uncontrolled Corruption has an impact on our world no less significant than the spying of the Outer Deity."

Leodero then said, "Regardless, remember that our goal is to help the Corruption; let's not inadvertently help Adam."

The three of them chatted casually, but their response time was anything but slow.

Lightning emanated from Leodero's body, Holy Light of Purification appeared from Aucuses, and an Eye of Agamotto rose behind Herabergen.

Each has its own methods, and even the Corruption ocean of the True Creator could not get close.

Just as things were at a stalemate, Adam said softly, "Let's all make our move, otherwise I can't hold off the four of them."

As Adam finished speaking, two more figures appeared beyond the boundaries of the Corruption Ocean, and these were two female figures.

There are only two women among the True God: Amanises and Lilith.

The two of them actually set off at the same time as Adam, but they were kept under Amanises's cover and were not discovered by anyone.

Now that Leodero and the other two have arrived, the two of them can naturally show up as well.

This whole scheme was actually orchestrated for Stiano's sake, but so far all the True God have arrived except for Stiano.

Was this a strategic miscalculation?

Actually, no.

After Adam made his move, Stiano naturally sensed it as well.

He wasn't stupid; he naturally guessed Adam's purpose in going to the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

But this has nothing to do with him. Whether Adam or the three gods win, it will ultimately not affect him.

Therefore, he only planned to observe quietly from the Perfect Land, without intending to be there in person.

But as these people entered the Forsaken Land of the Gods, Stiano could no longer see clearly and could only barely sense a little bit.

At that moment, Stiano had the idea of making a move.

But after further consideration, they ultimately decided not to leave the Perfect Land.

The fact that his house was raided last time left a considerable psychological scar on Stiano.

Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, he doesn't want to leave casually.

However, not long afterward, Stiano clearly sensed the presence of Amanises and Lilith in the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

This greatly surprised Stiano.

There are only a handful of True God in the entire world, and they've all appeared in the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

Amanises and Lilith both used their divine powers; they clearly weren't just there to watch the show.

Was this a joint attack by the six gods against Adam? Or was Adam well-prepared and determined to possess the True Creator?

This change piqued Stiano's curiosity.

With so many people involved in the war, wouldn't it have a huge impact on the world situation?

Then he really should go and take a look.

As someone who's just watching the show, there shouldn't be any danger.

Given the perfect opportunity, he might just be the one to reap the benefits.

As for the problems he initially worried about, they had long since been forgotten.

With so many True God mobilized together, surely it wasn't all just to scheme against me!

Regarding this idea, Kronos remarked, "Stiano is truly brilliant!"

Having made up his mind, Stiano left the Perfect Land.

With Stiano in charge, Kronos had no way of knowing what was happening in the Perfect Land.

However, Kronos could guard another place: the location of the Giant King’s Court.

Stiano is not Adam or Amon, and cannot enter the Forsaken Land of the Gods by any other means.

Therefore, if Stiano wants to go in and see the excitement, he must pass through the Giant King’s Court.

Right after the war broke out in the Forsaken Land of the Gods, a figure did indeed appear at the Giant King’s Court.

Paragon aren't exactly known for their Pathway to hide or move quickly, so Stiano wasn't able to perfectly conceal the traces he left behind.

Kronos, whose strength was now considerable, noticed this subtle clue.

After confirming that the person from the past was Stiano, a smile appeared on Kronos's face.

He didn't choose to go inside; instead, he turned around and left.

Through the Spirit World, Kronos returned to the space of the Moses Ascetic Order.

The first thing he did upon returning was to concoct Potion.

Because he didn't know if the plan would succeed, Kronos didn't prepare the Potion in advance.

Kronos, the Knowledge Emperor, was quite adept at concocting Potion, so he quickly and successfully prepared them.

After completing the Potion, Kronos drank Potion down without the slightest hesitation.

He needed speed, though he had no idea when the battle in the Forsaken Land of the Gods would end.

What if Leodero and his companions realize the situation is hopeless and give up?

When the time comes, Stiano, who was just watching the show, will definitely be the first to leave.

Because neither Leodero's side nor Adam's side would have a good attitude towards him, a mere spectator.

However, Kronos was indeed overthinking this.

Amanises and Lilith were both cunning old foxes, so once they determined the purpose of this operation, they knew what they had to do.

As soon as the battle began, Lilith stopped Aucuses, while the remaining two were left to Amanises.

Amanises was focusing all his efforts on attacking Herabergen, while Leodero was merely engaged in combat.

Leodero had the closest relationship with Amanises, so there was virtually no possibility that he would harm Amanises.

As for Aucuses and Herabergen, they only had one thought at the time, "So this is what a multi- Pathway True God is? They're not that much stronger than us! Haven't they even fused with the power of other Pathway yet?"

This situation didn't last long before Amanises shouted, "Stiano, I know you're here! Quickly stop Leodero!"

"You gave me a chance to act as compensation, and I'm going to use that chance!"

In reality, both Lilith and Amanises were very restrained and did not use their full strength at all.

On the one hand, this can buy more time for Kronos.

They were all people who had become True God, so they naturally knew that becoming a god was not a matter of seconds, and some Pathway might take a long time.

On the other hand, it's unknown whether the Outer Deity have the ability to infiltrate this area.

This performance could also mislead a group of Outer Deity.

As for Stiano's chance to score, Amanises no longer values it at all.

It won't be long before Kronos makes his move against Stiano.

Amanises will definitely support Kronos at that time.

She was one of the earliest investors in Kronos, and now it's about to go public. How could she possibly help another company go against her own people?

Stiano hadn't gotten that close at all, precisely because he was afraid of being discovered, so he was puzzled as to how he had given himself away.

In fact, Amanises had not discovered his whereabouts at all; he was simply certain that he would come.

Regardless, since Amanises had already mentioned the opportunity to act, he had no choice but to make his move.

Left with no other choice, Stiano had to reveal himself and head towards Leodero.

Just then, Adam's voice rang in Stiano's ears. "Stiano, do you remember when you apologized to him last time? I wonder if you'd like him to apologize to you again?"

I vaguely remember that it was Adam who instigated Leodero to use such force last time, and now the one being instigated is Stiano.
