In the Bottomless Abyss, Gustavo lay prostrate above the river of lava, his body enveloped in billowing Abyss demonic energy.
He opened his Abyss maw and devoured all the resources that Lancelot had brought through the portal, beginning to digest the power and rules they contained.
The Devouring Divine Realm was operating at full power behind Gustavo, transforming into 3,000 slowly rotating Black Hole. Each Black Hole seemed capable of devouring the world and shattering mind and matter, making it extremely terrifying.
At the edges of these Black Hole, and even at their central origins, there are dense, intricate sealing patterns. These patterns make the Black Hole more stable in structure, while also making their devouring speed even more terrifying, working in tandem.
It is evident that Gustavo has thoroughly integrated the Abyss Sealing Studies he has learned into his own Devouring Path, and has innovated and created his own unique Black Hole Sealing Method.
Strands of flowing light and rules flashed through Gustavo's mind, roaming freely. His thoughts, like the supercomputer of the Northern Spirit Empire, rapidly deduced and changed, frantically absorbing the numerous resources he had just intercepted.
In particular, after the fall of many powerful figures in the Aiwensuo Civilization, the Sealing Source Card Source Card behind contained the most essential secrets of sealing. After Gustavo digested and absorbed them, his level of Sealing Studies improved dramatically.
Because Gustavo's Dao of Sealing had been completely integrated into his Path of Devouring, the improvement in his Sealing Studies naturally led to a rapid increase in his cultivation. His realm began to expand, and his path became increasingly broad, as if it were extending to the end of the world, breaking free from the constraints of the River of Space-Time, like a mad dragon churning in rivers, lakes, and seas, wanting to enter the ocean.
At the same time, many insights came to Gustavo's mind.
"Devouring, sealing, Termination... all rules are devoured, encompassing the world, embracing the universe... devouring the world to forge one's own Inner Universe, devouring rules to forge the path of law, devouring Divine Body to create an unparalleled demonic body..."
Gustavo's eerie green spider eyes gradually turned colorless and hazy, as if containing countless cosmic planes rich in rules and principles, rising and falling, being born and dying.
"The Path of Devouring requires the resources of all paths, sowing the seeds of Termination..."
As he comprehended this, Gustavo's own aura also changed. His size seemed to expand and shrink at times. Although he was not large, he seemed to have become a conceptual symbol. Origin and Termination coexisted on his body, and annihilation and life were one. He was like a combination of light and darkness, and the boundary between the sacred and the demonic.
Sometimes it appears tiny, yet it seems infinitely vast, as if it could break free from all constraints at any moment and transform into a colossal beast that fills the Space-Time.
And so, Gustavo underwent a transformation and metamorphosis within the Abyss.
Above his head, thick demonic clouds gathered into a vortex, from which descended massive, pure demonic pillars, each composed of pure Abyss Power. The Abyss Will quietly appeared, watching over its favored offspring below, providing them with a favorable environment for transformation.
On the other side.
Somewhere in the dark Void, the war between the Divine Realm and the Northern Spirit Empire continues.
"How long are you going to keep acting? Isn't it enough?" the Sun God said coldly.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still some matters to discuss with the Northern Spirit Empire, and the possibility that the two sides might even cooperate in the future, given His personality, He wouldn't have indulged the other party.
The God of Law seemed to have read the Sun God's mind. His voice was calm and indifferent, as if devoid of any emotion, merely the embodiment of pure law. He said, "It will be soon."
The words had barely left his lips when the God of Law abruptly paused. Opposite him, the Sun God noticed this seemingly insignificant detail, his expression immediately turning serious. He seemed to have realized something: was the Northern Spirit Empire's scheme against the Primordial Heaven finally about to unveil its final act?
"Here we go!"
The God of Law spoke in a low voice, then looked up at the Sun God: "Will you stop me?"
The Sun God narrowed his eyes slightly, then suddenly smiled, "The Northern Spirit Empire should have had a contingency plan, right? Who will intercept me?"
The God of Law remained silent for a moment, then transmitted a message to the Sun God.
The Sun God's expression froze. Were these tech fanatics actually preparing to use their forbidden weapon?
He did not believe that the God of Law was threatening him; in fact, there was no need for it. The Sun God believed that the Northern Spirit Empire was capable of doing such a thing.
It is important to know that the Divine Realm of the Second Era was once destroyed. On that occasion, the entire glorious faith and Divine Realm were reduced to fragments that flew in the Void. In addition to the Order-Restoring Iridescent Light of the Adrian Federation, the forbidden weapon of the Northern Spirit Empire also played a significant role in causing this outcome.
After giving the God of Law a deep look, the Sun God slowly shook his head and retreated. Upon seeing this, the God of Law nodded to him and then led the troops and powerful figures of the Northern Spirit Empire to tear through the Void and depart.
The Primordial Heaven, this magnificent pinnacle of a great plane, is like a giant whale floating in a vast ocean, exuding a powerful presence.
The influence of the Primordial God spreads outwards from this plane as its core. Outside the universe shrouded by this fluctuation, the probability of Primordial God being born is greater, while the difficulty is greatly reduced. Therefore, this is undoubtedly the Primordial God ' stronghold.
The Heavenly Realm Divine Mountain is the Primordial Heaven Heaven-Supporting Pillar and a landmark of the celestial realm.
The core of the Primordial Heaven's comprehensive defense system is located within the Heaven-Supporting Pillar.
As the Primordial Heaven launched a full-scale counterattack against the Northern Spirit Empire's defenses, many powerful figures guarding key locations volunteered to join the battle. While a considerable number of these volunteers did so voluntarily, many more were actually swayed by the impassioned words of the Young and Middle-Aged Faction led by the God of Machinery.
After all, the Primordial God have their own pride. They have existed since the beginning of time and once had a glorious moment when they dominated the world and were revered by all things. Their sense of pride is no less than that of the God of Faith.
Under such circumstances, being suppressed and beaten by the Divine Realm, and even forced to stay in their lair and passively defend themselves, many of the new generation of Primordial God, and even the old ones, harbored a burning desire to retaliate.
When the moment of retaliation truly arrives, people naturally rush to participate, unafraid of death. This is a very valuable quality, but at certain times, it can become a major reason for the annihilation of the entire force or race.
At the bottom of the Heavenly Realm Divine Mountain, a massive Space-Time vortex stirs up a torrent of matter and energy, radiating a dense Primordial God.
Two Primordial God at the level of Main God were standing guard in front of the Space-Time vortex, their forms transformed into statues.
Their eyes were alert as they scanned their surroundings, not missing the slightest abnormality. For a moment, their gazes suddenly sharpened simultaneously, but quickly softened again, carrying a hint of surprise and doubt.
"Your Excellency, God of Machinery, why have you returned? Has the war on the front lines made significant progress?"
One of the Main God guardians asked.
"Yes, the toughest line of defense has just been breached. I'm using the rapid spatial teleportation route to return to the Heavenly Realm to recuperate, hoping to use the primordial power at the bottom of Mount Tianshan to recover," the God of Machinery said with a smile.
"Okay, I'll open the passage for you right away," the guardian of the Main God said hurriedly. He was one of the supporters of the God of Machinery and had always regretted not being able to participate in the counter-offensive on the front lines.
Now, facing their victorious idol, they naturally acted with great deference.
However, the other, relatively older, guardian of the Main God noticed something amiss.
Even though the God of Machinery could use spatial teleportation to return quickly, it still couldn't match the speed at which information was transmitted from the Virtual Universe. He kept his consciousness connected to the Virtual Universe and was also paying attention to the situation at the front, but he didn't find any major breakthroughs in the battle at the front.
Then, the elderly Main God's eyes narrowed and became somewhat dangerous. He felt that the God of Machinery before him was likely not real, but an enemy in disguise.
With this thought in mind, the elderly guard wanted to quietly notify those in higher positions, but just then...
A poisonous cone covered in metal barbs suddenly pierced his back, instantly piercing his heart before he could even react. Then, with a slight tremor, his Primordial Divine Soul was shattered into pieces.
The elderly guard opened his mouth as if to say something more, but his eyes quickly dimmed, and finally, all traces of life disappeared.
In the Heavenly Realm realm, a Main God Dao appeared, then collapsed. Shortly afterward, a torrential downpour of blood-red rain fell, symbolizing the fall of a Main God Primordial God of godhood.
Even the Heavenly Dao Will wept and grieved for the annihilation of such an existence.
"You, you!!"
Another, younger guardian of the Main God was shocked and instinctively tried to resist, but he was quickly dealt with as well. Another path collapsed in mid-air, and the rain of blood intensified.
It is worth mentioning that these two guards refused to believe until their deaths that the person in front of them was the real God of Machinery, thinking that someone from the Northern Spirit Empire was impersonating him. However, in reality, this was the God of Machinery, the genuine God of Machinery, a super genius who rose rapidly in the Primordial Heaven, and Heavenly Realm.
"Don't blame me. It's because you're so stubborn and refuse to submit to the Empire. Our strength is like a mantis trying to stop a chariot when it comes to fighting against the Northern Spirit Empire. What's more, there's a formidable enemy like the Divine Realm watching us closely. If this continues, we'll only perish. How can God of Battle Sovereign of Fate lead us to final victory?"
The God of Machinery muttered to himself as he stepped into the Space-Time vortex.
One breath.
Two breaths.
Five breaths.
Boom!!
Heavenly Pillar Mountain began to tilt and collapse.
This triggered a terrifying chain reaction, causing the defensive barrier outside the Primordial Heaven, which was originally strong enough to easily resist the attacks of the Eternal, to develop spiderweb-like cracks. Almost at the same time, the God of Law, leading the troops and powerful warriors of the Northern Spirit Empire, tore through the Void and arrived.
He hurled the Holy Grail of Origin from his hand with a deafening roar. The immense power released by the Grail completely destroyed the last remaining foundation of the entire defensive barrier.
The Primordial Heaven, which was originally like a tortoise shell, now completely opened its soft belly to the Northern Spirit Empire.
"Follow my attack and crush the Heavenly Realm!"
The God of Warfare drew his war sword, roared, and instantly bestowed a buff aura upon his own strongmen and troops. Taking advantage of the surge in morale, the entire army immediately launched an attack.
They swept through everything in their path, and after the last and strongest line of defense was breached, the Primordial Heaven, which was weaker in size, had little power to resist.
Why do this?
The God of Battle's grief-stricken voice resounded through the heavens.
He is fighting the God of Machinery.
He dominated and relentlessly beat the latter throughout the entire process.
However, at this moment, the God of Battle felt no joy at having gained the upper hand in the battle; his heart was filled only with grief and confusion.
"The Primordial Heaven has done everything in its power to provide you with anything you desire. I was even prepared to abdicate and make you the new leader of the Heavenly Realm. Why did you betray the Heavenly Realm to become a lackey of the Northern Spirit Empire? Why? Answer me! Look into my eyes, God of Machinery!!!"
The God of Battle roared almost hysterically.
He hadn't felt this grief and indignation even when he lost Sovereign of Fate.
Opposite him was the God of Machinery, who was being overwhelmed and in a sorry state, with mechanical parts scattered everywhere and the road cracked from the impact of that terrifying Hammer of Martial Combat.
The God of Machinery was shocked. He originally thought that his strength was not much different from that of the God of Battle, but after actually fighting, he realized that he was still too inexperienced and had little power to fight back against the God of Battle.
But when the God of Battle's words of grief and indignation reached his ears...
The God of Machinery calmly stated, "I merely made a logical and rational decision. In my analysis, the Primordial Heaven has absolutely no chance of survival in the future if it doesn't submit to the Northern Spirit Empire. Unfortunately, I subtly raised my thoughts at the Council of Gods, but none of you old fogies were willing to set aside your ridiculous so-called Primordial God pride and bow down to a newly emerging civilization. Therefore, I have no choice but to use my own methods to ensure the survival of the Primordial God lineage."
"Rationality?!" The God of Battle was furious upon hearing this, and he frantically swung his Hammer of Martial Combat.
"Is your so-called rationality simply allowing the Primordial God' lineage to lie dead on the battlefield, and letting countless of your comrades, companions, descendants, and bloodline perish under the bombardment of the Northern Spirit Empire's naval guns?"
"Is your so-called survival simply about making your people grovel at the feet of the conquerors, becoming dogs?"
"No, you're not doing this for the Primordial God lineage, you're only doing it for yourself, you selfish little man! I misjudged you before!!" The God of Battle laughed maniacally, his attacks becoming even more Berserk.
"Fine, since you betrayed the Primordial Heavenly Realm Primordial Heaven for your own survival, causing its collapse, then go and join those wronged souls who died because of you."
"Myriad Ages Weapon Hammer!!"
A furious roar echoed across the shattered dome of the Primordial Heaven, and the last massive spiked hammer, as large as a star or the moon, crashed down from the sky with unstoppable force towards the God of Machinery.
The latter's mechanical body surface was covered with densely packed energy circuits, a sign of extreme tension.
The God of Machinery could sense that he absolutely could not withstand this hammer blow; he would die, he would really die!
"Help me!!"
