"Old Qin!"
The Theater God patted the Zither Saint on the shoulder, adopting a friendly demeanor, and said, "However, I must remind you of something: with the conclusion of the second round of negotiations, it will be very difficult for you to achieve your goals for this trip."
The Zither Saint was taken aback, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you mean?"
The Theater God remained expressionless upon hearing this and explained, "Didn't I tell you last time that for the Star God, there are only zero or one attempts at negotiation?"
"But wasn't this the second round of negotiations?"
"It was the second round, but it was an opportunity given to you by the Star God. However, it's clear that you didn't seize this precious opportunity."
Is there really no chance?
"That's all."
"..."
After a moment of silence, the Zither Saint said softly, "Even adding resources won't work?"
The Theater God frowned upon hearing this.
The next moment, he said softly, "That depends on how many resources you want to add. The amount of resources you give me will determine whether I can persuade the Star God to negotiate again."
After saying this, the Theater God seemed afraid that the Zither Saint would misunderstand.
"Don't overthink it. Although this resource seems to be for me on the surface, I still need to grease palms with people about it."
"Hmm... it would be best if you could provide me with some high-quality resources on the rules of shadow, so I might be able to talk to Xiao Ying about it."
"I'll let you in on a little secret: when Xiao Ying was little, it was the Star God who brought her home."
Therefore, the Star God's attitude towards Xiao Ying is extremely different from what he truly feels.
"..."
Afterwards, the Theater God briefly described to the Zither Saint the tragic fate of the Shadow God and the sacrifices made by the Star God at that time.
Everything he described was true.
Only the main character has changed.
For example, the person who had reduced the Yin-Yang sorcerer to ashes was secretly replaced by Star God.
A rational Star God could do such a crazy thing when he was weak!
This shows that the Star God cherishes and dotes on the Shadow God.
"Thank you for the reminder, Your Majesty the Theater God."
The Zither Saint bowed and expressed his gratitude, like a traveler who had found a spring of life in a desolate desert, his joy mixed with a touch of unease.
"Sure, sure."
The Theater God waved his hand and said with a chuckle.
Did the Zither Saint believe his own lies?
Perhaps!
However, due to the overall global situation, the Zither Saint had no choice but to trust himself.
After all, the breakdown of these negotiations means that the next war will take place on the side of the Descender Universe.
Well, it's all for the best; the news of the God of Sleep's birth will certainly keep them busy for a while.
During this time, let's give the Descenders a good rest.
Only when the Descenders are gripped by fear can they squeeze every last drop of resources from their opponents.
As for the idea that forcing them to Descender would drastically change the world's mentality, leading to a desperate, all-or-nothing attack?
If that's the case, perhaps it's a good thing!
In their frenzied, all-or-nothing zeal, who did the Ninth Era ever fear?
The world is like this, and the pressure they face has long made them eager to do something crazy.
However, the string of reason in their minds hadn't snapped yet, so they were still able to suppress their inner impulses.
Most importantly, he didn't believe that the Descender Universe, who was skilled at soul possession, would engage in a life-or-death struggle with them over a few resources.
At the same moment, on the other side.
After receiving Li Wenze's notification, Star God and Su Wen immediately rushed to the world where the God of Sleep was asleep.
When they arrived at the twelfth-dimensional small world, located 475 stars southeast of the Main Realm, both of them were speechless.
The place that the God of Sleep found for sleeping is truly secure!
Normally speaking, a three-dimensional miniature world, which is a world within a world, full of dangers and barriers, is already quite rare.
As it turns out, the place where the God of Sleep slept was the twelfth layer.
The sense of isolation created by this world barrier will completely prevent divination and exploration of all levels.
In other words, after twelve rounds of isolation and the enhancement of nested traps, even a grain of sand of starlight drifting aimlessly in this vast universe could be the sleeping place of the God of Sleep.
Even Star God at the God King Realm would find nothing from this kind of sifting through the sands of the starry sea without absolutely reliable information.
In other words, the Incumbent Wind God has very special abilities; otherwise, if they were just searching haphazardly like this, who knows how long it would take them to find it!
"As expected, the Divine Seat is incomplete."
The Star God stood before the God of Sleep, who was enveloped in the power of the Sleep Dao's rules, and said softly, "Moreover, the division of the God of Sleep's Divine Seat is remarkably even!"
"This cutting technique is clearly the work of a highly professional."
The Star God paused, then said solemnly, "Based on my understanding of the Remnant Clan and the Descender Universe, and my speculations about the foundations of these two universes based on some information."
"They shouldn't have this kind of method of dividing up Divine Seat over there."
"After all, our Divine Seat Bestowal by the Will of the Universe."
"Unless it's a division by those of the same origin or by the holders of the Divine Seat themselves, such a situation should never occur."
"Hmm... God of Wealth, if you ever have the chance to meet the Eighth Epoch God of Sleep, go ask him what's going on."
Beside him, Su Wen frowned and said, "So, it's now confirmed that there's still a God of Sleep?"
"Right."
"Then what should we do?"
"Actually, the simplest solution is..."
As the Star God spoke, he sighed softly.
He didn't say anything more.
But who among those present didn't know what the following words meant?
Kill this God of Sleep in front of you!
Given the unique nature of the Divine Seat of the God of Sleep, the second God of Sleep, who is currently asleep on the other side, will obtain the complete Divine Seat the God of Sleep through the restoration of time, and thus be revived.
"Within my body, there exists a Second God of Fate."
Li Wenze chuckled and suddenly said, "The Second God of Fate will only appear after I die."
"So, Star God, do you see any similarities between the way God of Sleep was split in two and my own technique?"
"Just like the Second God of Fate within me, it may represent the legacy left behind by our ancestors from previous eras."
"Could the appearance of these two God of Sleep also be part of a plan devised by our ancestors in previous eras?"
"For example, the layout of the Incumbent God of Sleep?"
From a rational perspective, killing the God of Sleep in front of you is indeed the simplest and most brutal way to wake him up.
From an emotional perspective, he couldn't help but feel a sense of shared sorrow for the passing of his comrade.
After all, he wasn't stupid. Judging from the power of the God of Fate he possessed, he could roughly guess that the Second God of Fate would have even greater power.
Does that mean... I should also die, so that the Second God of Fate can come out and communicate with everyone?
In fact, he wasn't incapable of dying; it was just that when he learned that the space he inhabited was Sub-Space-Time that could be overturned and rebuilt, he wanted to find a way to survive for himself in the Main Space-Time.
Is there a way to survive without dying myself, and still manage to create Second God of Fate?
Or rather, to search for the body, soul, and spirit.
The Second God of Fate has been found!
Devour and Refinement the Second God of Fate!
