507: A whole cage

Chapter 507: The Entire Place is a Prison

Lu Ran didn't know those things.

But after Lin Bao'er's description, Lu Ran had a rough understanding of the current God Realm, which was the Hall of Valor.

A long time ago.

Before the Datafication World appeared.

Beings from various lower planes could enter the Hall of Valor through a method similar to cultivating immortals.

After entering the Hall of Valor, they would become gods.

Thus,

a complete world of gods appeared.

Gods married and had children, the world multiplied, and gradually, class differentiation and a divine system were born.

It could have continued like this.

But a long time ago,

for unknown reasons, the ascension channel was closed.

No new people came up from various planes.

All the Immortal Washing Pools in the entire Hall of Valor also became completely silent.

Even the Immortal Ascension List became useless, remaining unchanged for many years.

“This means that the entire Hall of Valor has become a prison.”

“Although gods do not die naturally, they can be killed.”

“In the Hall of Valor, countless pseudo-gods want to become true gods.”

“So their parents and elders will hunt other gods.”

“But only after five gods die can their godhead shards be combined into a complete godhead.”

“This has led to a decreasing number of gods and a decreasing number of godheads.”

“The surviving gods have formed their own factions.”

“These factions are like fire and water, constantly fighting and looking for opportunities to annex each other.”

“This time is no different; because of your appearance, the God Realm was stirred into chaos, and Olympus seized this opportunity to begin hunting people from other factions.”

…

Hearing this,

Lu Ran was a little curious: “But don’t you not have a godhead?”

Lin Bao'er said: “Hunting gods is very difficult. Besides hunting gods from other factions, each faction also needs to reduce the number of people in other factions. These are all reflections of their combined combat power. The fewer people there are, the lower the overall combat power will naturally be. If only those gods are left as lone commanders, their demise will not be far off.”

According to Lin Bao'er,

the current God Realm's

largest factions

are:

Olympus, led by Zeus.

Heavenly Court, led by the Jade Emperor.

Asir God Race, led by Odin.

A-san God Race, led by Fentian.

And the Sun God Race, Takamagahara God Race, and other god races.

Other smaller factions have also mostly been annexed and joined other factions.

Otherwise, without protection, they would have long since perished.

And Lin Bao'er belonged to the Heavenly Court faction.

According to Lin Bao'er’s explanation, the ancient gods of the Heavenly Court faction were cultivators who ascended from the lower planes of Dragon Xia before it was Datafied.

Now,

Lu Ran has come to the God Realm. Logically, Lu Ran is a Dragon Xia person, so he belongs to the Heavenly Court faction.

But strangely,

Lu Ran's godhead is actually the godhead of Hades, who had already gone missing from Olympus!

“It has nothing to do with the godhead. I am a Dragon Xia person, so naturally, I belong to the Heavenly Court faction,” Lu Ran said casually.

He still couldn't forget his roots.

Lin Bao'er took a deep breath.

She said: “Currently, the entire God Realm is like a prison, and the gods are desperately seeking a way out, because if this continues, there is only one possibility: only one faction will survive, and when there is only one faction, internal factional disputes will begin, and the ultimate result will be the death of all gods!”

Hearing this,

Lu Ran curiously asked: “Then why are they going to such lengths to find people for the Datafication World? Is it related to their way out?”

Lin Bao'er shook her head again.

She said: “No, it’s to prevent this place from being Datafied, because even if the current God Realm is a prison, the gods still control everything here. But if it were Datafied, there would be another Datafication rule that would override all gods.”

It was as if the gods were already in a prison.

But the prison was unguarded, and they only needed to break through it and leave.

But now,

if this place were Datafied, and Datafication rules controlled it, it would be like adding a guard to the prison.

The chance of leaving here would become even more remote.

“The Heavenly Court's idea is also like this, so Emperor of the Taiyin was also sent out, but it seems none of them succeeded. By the way, Emperor of the Taiyin, have you met him? He is still very strong,” Lin Bao'er said.

Upon hearing this,

Lu Ran's thoughts stirred.

Emperor of the Taiyin was directly thrown out by Lu Ran.

Suddenly seeing Emperor of the Taiyin appear before her, Lin Bao'er was startled and her eyes widened.

“This is Emperor of the Taiyin. He is now my subordinate. Two of the five gods sent by the God Realm were completely killed by me. The other three, including Emperor of the Taiyin, Thor, and Minaga, are now my subordinates.”

Lin Bao'er gulped.

This...

This was something Lin Bao'er hadn't expected.

No wonder they failed!

The gods sent either were killed by Lu Ran or were subverted and dealt with by Lu Ran.

And this... required extremely powerful and terrifying strength!

Of course,

Lin Bao'er had already witnessed Lu Ran's strength.

Extremely powerful and terrifying!

It was not surprising that he could do these things.

“Now, the God Realm has been Datafied. Your arrival has alarmed the entire God Realm. If we want to break the deadlock, you have become the key figure. Therefore, all factions in the God Realm are now desperately looking for you,” Lin Bao'er said.

“Hearing you say that, I can understand why they would come looking for me,” Lu Ran said.

“You must be careful. There are still many powerful gods among the major God Races,” Lin Bao'er urged.

“No worries. If one comes, I'll kill one,” Lu Ran said casually.

If possible,

if the people from Heavenly Court were willing to go all out,

Lu Ran would kill the other God Races, help everyone in Heavenly Court obtain godheads, and all become gods!

To dominate the entire God Realm!

Lu Ran wasn't worried about any prison or anything like that; he could leave here at any time!

So many clones were still in the Datafication World; he just needed an active skill to teleport back to a clone.

“I know what I need to know. Let's go back to Heavenly Court now,” Lu Ran said.

He wanted to inspect Heavenly Court.

To see if these gods in Heavenly Court were worthy of being saved by him.

If they were a bunch of arrogant and incompetent people, Lu Ran wouldn't indulge them.

Although they were fellow countrymen,

even fellow countrymen had a limit to their patience.

“Okay, let's go now!” Lin Bao'er said excitedly.

Being able to bring Lu Ran back would definitely be a great joy for Heavenly Court!

Immediately,

Lu Ran, with a thought, put away Emperor of the Taiyin.

He and Lin Bao'er soared into the sky!

Seeing that Lin Bao'er could fly but was slow, Lu Ran simply grabbed her wrist.

He said: “Which direction?”
