Upon hearing this voice, even the Prison God's eyes lit up; the Punishment God had finally arrived.
Then, with a casual wave of his hand, he activated the formations and restrictions of the Star Ancestral Prison.
Before long, they saw the person approaching.
" Punishment God, you've come at the perfect time..."
It can be said that the reason why they couldn't deal with the Eternal Realm Lord at first was because the situation was a bit unexpected and they missed their chance. Later, someone suddenly appeared to cover for him!
And it's not just one, which is why things have been dragging on and on. Otherwise, we would have arrested him in no time. Does he think he can just keep jumping around like this?
Now, I have teammates too! They need to be dealt with! Otherwise, who knows how many more problems will arise.
The Punishment God looked down at the Star Ancestral Prison and glanced at the towering demons and behemoths bound by chains.
Even mythical beasts have to go to jail.
The situation is similar to that of the Heavenly Punishment Star Prison in the North Star Domain, which he guards. However, isn't the number of criminals imprisoned here a bit too many? Is the Eastern Star Domain really that chaotic? The Prison God's performance is off the charts; he must have had a lot of work to do.
Then I refocused my attention.
" Prison God, you now owe me a favor."
I made time to come here.
"I'll give you an IOU, I'll pay you back next time." The Prison God stood with his hands behind his back.
The Punishment God smiled. "Speak, what is it...?"
Generally speaking, the Prison God wouldn't invite him like this. They each guard their own territory, so summoning him now must mean something is out of control and difficult to handle.
Upon hearing this, the Prison God's expression darkened slightly.
"Naturally, it's because of that Eternal Realm Lord, whom I mentioned to you before."
"Oh? Just a mere ant?"
"Though he is small, he has a powerful background. Only if we join forces to deal with the Void Heaven City Lord and the Jade Phoenix Empress will we have a chance."
The Punishment God certainly understood this; with two Half-Step Creation experts protecting him, the Prison God alone would indeed be difficult to deal with.
"Then, who is he?"
However, he knew that with the power of the Prison God, dealing with two of them wouldn't be too daunting. Perhaps they were just suppressing that Old Devil Chen and couldn't leave for the time being.
"I don't know." The Prison God his head. "I initially thought he was only related to the Void Heaven God Clan, but now it seems it's more than that."
You asked me? I don't know either. This situation is completely baffling.
What does this mean?
"You know that the Creation God appeared in the Demonic Beast Holy Land of the Myriad Dao Star Domain and annihilated the Heaven Domain Lord, right?" the Prison God asked in return.
The Punishment God nodded. "I've heard about it."
"Hmm, I suspect that this Demonic Beast Holy Land may be related to the Eternal Realm Lord," the Prison God said, expressing his conjecture.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be such a coincidence.
Upon hearing this, the Punishment God's expression turned completely solemn. They even had connections to the neighboring star system? That was the Creation God...
"Really?" He frowned. Was the Eternal Realm Lord really that powerful?
But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't make sense, does it? How could he have the ability to go so far afield?
"This is merely a guess." The Prison God paused.
"Furthermore, the reason I called you here today is to clarify this matter. Of course, I have already notified the Adjudication God and the Judgment God; we just need to wait for their arrival."
Otherwise, with just the two of them, if they were to encounter a traitor, they wouldn't be easy to deal with.
The Punishment God was greatly encouraged and had to summon the Adjudication God and the Judgment God, thus bringing together the four great gods.
It's been a long time since they've teamed up like this.
"Alright. But which Creation God is that powerful figure from the Demonic Beast Holy Land?"
"I don't know. But they've settled in the Ancient Domain of Heaven for now. We'll find out when we meet them in the future." The Prison God's eyes flickered.
They needed to find out the background of the Eternal Realm Lord. Otherwise, they absolutely did not want to see a Supreme secretly develop under their noses in the future.
Everything that this Eternal Realm Lord is showing now deserves our attention. If we still can't figure everything out this time, we'll have to inform our superior Heavenly Deciding God, for a decision.
The Punishment God grunted, roughly understanding the situation. This Eternal Realm Lord was quite interesting, increasingly entangled, to the point that even the Prison God couldn't handle him. How amusing.
He then asked, "I've heard that the Void Heaven God Clan also came from another star system, right?"
Investigating them would be even more difficult, since they come from other star systems, their backgrounds are unknown, and they involve much more distant places.
"Indeed," the Prison God replied. Tracing their origins, they came from another star system, making it even more difficult to investigate them. But that's precisely why they need to be even more careful.
Then something suddenly occurred to me.
" Old Devil Chen also comes from another star field..." This guy is the key point.
This was also the key to him summoning the Punishment God.
Suppress them! Otherwise, they'll become a dangerous and unruly element.
Punishment God had not forgotten such old events; back then, they had to join forces to suppress Old Devil Chen.
That was the first time.
This is the second time, but the situation is somewhat different.
" Old Devil Chen..." a strange sigh escaped his lips.
What was Old Devil Chen doing in the Endless Star Domain? Was it just to commit crimes? It's unclear, but...
The Prison God turned to look at him. "That's right. We need you and me to reinforce the restrictions and formations to suppress him; otherwise, things might go wrong."
"You're still so cautious." Punishment God said this, but it couldn't be denied.
Old Devil Chen deserves this treatment.
The Prison God his head. "It's not so much about being cautious, it's just that we haven't forgotten the lesson from the Creation Gods and Devils."
Those wielding demons are all troublesome. They almost caused that Creation Gods and Devils to break through to the Supreme!
However, he had only heard about it back then; he wasn't qualified to see it with his own eyes, nor did he have his current position, and the time was too long ago.
The Punishment God smiled. "That's how it should be."
The Creation Gods and Devils were renowned, and in other powerful star systems. But that's all in the past, so there's no need to be too reserved about mentioning them.
"What are you laughing at?" the Prison God glanced at him.
"It's nothing, it just reminded me of something interesting when Old Devil Chen was mentioned." Punishment God was naturally very relaxed chatting with an old friend.
What is it?
The Prison God frowned. Was it related to Old Devil Chen?
Punishment God stood with his hands behind his back. "In my North Star Domain, there was once a Chen Clan Lineage that was quite powerful. Later, however, they inexplicably disintegrated. Don't you think that's interesting? Hahahaha..."
That's hilarious, he ruined himself.
Prison God: "..."
It turns out it was just related to Old Devil Chen's surname, which startled me.
"Could it be that they offended someone, leading to the family's disintegration and decline?"
Suddenly, my heart skipped a beat. These days, there are quite a few people with the surname Chen, and I just happen to have encountered a few troublesome ones.
The Punishment God chuckled, "Probably..."
"However, Lineage that lacks cohesion, scatters at the first sign of trouble, and even lacks the courage to face crises, is destined to be short-lived."
He shook his head, clearly somewhat disdainful.
The Prison God: "That's quite a coincidence, the Eternal Realm Lord also has the surname Chen."
Punishment God: "..."
There are just too many people with the surname Chen!
However, he knew that this Chen was not the same Chen as before; they were worlds apart.
"That's quite a coincidence. But since we've brought it up, Prison God, tell me about his situation..." He really hadn't paid much attention to things and people outside the North Star Domain.
Upon hearing this, the Prison God immediately launched into a long explanation, his tone tinged with a sense of helplessness and frustration.
Ten thousand words are omitted here.
After a while.
The Punishment God was completely dumbfounded.
That sounds a bit like you're bragging... really?
Is the Eternal Realm Lord really that monstrous?
You said there were rumors that he was reborn from the Supreme Being, and I believed it.
