461: Gods

In the sacred hall, a crystal-clear gem floated in the center.

Around the gem, several figures were scattered in an orderly fashion.

They were either majestic, sacred, noble, unyielding, or wise...

"An unprecedented trial is about to begin," one of them spoke.

She was a perfect woman, as gentle as a mother; everyone who saw her would cast aside all negative emotions.

Life God King.

All present were solemn.

They naturally knew what she was referring to.

It seemed that ever since Angel God King achieved veneration, everything had spiraled out of control.

And those four liberated Angels seemed to have accelerated the loss of control.

"Angel God King is still controllable, but that Holy Angel will bring endless trouble."

Death God King said solemnly.

"We were ultimately too careless; repeated restarts and repeated destructions, we underestimated the Angels, leading to their rise."

This was a God King as radiant and brilliant as the sun, the Blazing Sun God King.

"How did she find the Holy Angel?" Silver God King asked, perplexed.

The four strongest God Kings of the celestial realm were gathered.

Apart from Death God King and Life God King who gained True Word Skills through the blessing of the celestial realm will, the other two obtained True Word Skills through great perseverance and profound enlightenment.

Possessing True Word Skills, their status among the over thirty God Kings in the celestial realm was the most transcendent.

"During the Holy War, nine of the twelve Holy Angels were led into a demon trap; five underwent Death and reincarnation, while the other four were trapped in the Endless Abyss, enduring endless battles.

It must be that Angel God King rescued them."

Life God King was the eldest and knew the most secrets.

The previous Usurpation War was presided over by her.

Death God King was born during the Usurpation War.

And the Blazing Sun God King and Silver God King were born after the usurpation.

Especially Silver God King, who was originally an ordinary God King, yet achieved sudden enlightenment.

Some of the God Kings suddenly understood, while others already knew.

The latter, of course, were from that era.

"War."

Death God King's gaze shifted to a figure who was trying hard to minimize his presence.

Seeing that he was discovered, War God King sighed helplessly and responded awkwardly.

But that one sound made all the God Kings stare at him.

They were very displeased; if it weren't for this incompetent fellow, leading to such a blunder, why would they be in such an awkward situation?

One misstep, and this interest group, which had been maintained for endless years, would be overthrown.

"Ah? This... everyone, this is fate! Even if I didn't act, the Angel Clan, which has accumulated for endless years, would still cause us no small loss.

The divinity accumulated over generations, the strange power of repairing the divine kingdom to circumvent the Fate Enclosure, and the phenomenon of comprehending Incantations upon breakthrough—do these not indicate that a calamity awaits us?"

War God King, in a moment of desperation, spoke with increasing confidence.

Yes, that's right, there's nothing wrong with it; why can't this be explained by destiny?

Angels born in the celestial realm are naturally darlings of destiny.

Even if they suppressed them, this destiny would eventually erupt one day.

Many God Kings pondered War's explanation.

The four supreme God Kings also agreed.

The reason they called upon War was naturally for other purposes.

"Regardless, this is the trouble you caused, and you must participate in the subsequent matters," Life said.

Whoever commits the offense resolves it; this has always been the rule.

War smiled bitterly; he knew he couldn't escape this ordeal.

"I know, but if it's just me, I'm afraid I won't be able to shake the Angels," War said.

"Is there anyone else willing to volunteer for battle?" Life God King asked.

But there was dead silence.

None of the God Kings wanted to get involved in this mess.

Angel God King's True Word Skill was not something to be trifled with; no one dared to participate before her True Word Skill was fully analyzed.

They were all very old gods; how could they easily take risks?

"Since no one is willing, then Death will lead the way," Life God King said.

"Received." Death God King did not object; or rather, he was very interested in this matter.

To be precise, he was very interested in bringing Death.

Each time the Angel Clan was restarted, it was a feast for him.

"An interesting True Word Skill; perhaps we will have common ground," Death thought.

He was extremely pleased.

With pleasure, he casually picked a few God Kings to follow him into battle, and War was naturally among them.

"Lin Ye, long time no see; your aura has grown stronger."

"Siviya's divinity has become richer," Lin Ye thought.

He had already sensed Siviya's change; she used to be like a gentle Angel, descending to the human world, noble yet approachable.

Now, she was like a snow lotus blooming on the peak of a high mountain, cold and noble, making people hesitate to approach.

She was also like a supreme god in heaven, transcendent and ethereal.

Lin Ye knew that over the years, Siviya had embarked on a completely different path.

"Congratulations, the Angel Clan has hope for revival."

After the lake's explanation, he roughly understood how formidable the Holy Angel was.

"It's still far from enough; their power is beyond imagination," Siviya was not optimistic.

Then she changed the topic.

"This eruption of earthly energy is an excellent opportunity; if you are willing, you can come to the Angel Clan's city," Siviya invited.

Although she observed that Lin Ye's aura far exceeded that of an ordinary Dominator Eight-star, she didn't know exactly how strong he was, but she feared he was already invincible among Dominators.

She also secretly marveled at Lin Ye's exceptional talent.

But how could fighting alone compare to those with power?

When others combine forces and condense legion souls, even a Venerable would have to avoid their sharp edge.

Moreover, if one encountered a Venerable who had condensed a legion soul, there would be no room to escape.

So she extended the invitation, wanting to protect Lin Ye.

Lin Ye naturally wouldn't go; Siviya didn't know that he had already secretly controlled a city.

"Thank you for the invitation, but I'm used to being free," Lin Ye said.

"Then take good care of yourself; if you encounter trouble, call my true name," Siviya instructed, then disappeared.

"Lake, did you see what method she used?" Lin Ye was incredibly surprised.

Without any fluctuations of time, space, or elements, Siviya simply vanished.

"Hey, hey, hey, you're a Dominator Nine-star now, an unprecedented existence; why ask me, a guardian spirit, what to do? My eyesight can't compare to yours anymore," Lake said.

Lin Ye smiled wryly.

He was used to asking Lake, but now he realized that in terms of eyesight alone, he was much stronger than Lake.

In terms of knowledge, Lake knew very little about anything above the Venerable level.

"It might be the power of that True Word Skill," Lin Ye thought.

Having deviated from the inherent laws, it could only be explained by extraordinary means like True Word Skills.

"Next, it's time to face the battles after the earthly energy eruption; I hope my neighbors aren't unreasonable."
