The Aad pantheon.
Inside the temple.
The atmosphere in the entire hall was somewhat depressing, like a volcano about to erupt.
Div sat on the throne of gods with an unusually ugly expression on his face. This kind of emotion rarely appeared on him. After all, as the lord of a powerful pantheon, it was rare for him to suffer any loss.
In other words, even if He suffered a small loss, He could retaliate immediately without any need for patience.
Naturally, you won't let your emotions get hurt.
The gods below were in a low mood, and each of them had serious injuries.
Although they escaped from the previous battle between gods, they were still injured in the battle due to the targeting of the god players.
After all, apart from their advantage in cutting-edge combat power, the Old Gods of the Void have no obvious advantages in other aspects. They are even at an absolute disadvantage in terms of numbers, and the overall situation is in a delicate state of balance.
Therefore, when the dark gods held back the Lord of the Yad pantheon and the six more powerful middle-level true gods were free to intervene in the battlefield of other gods, the delicate balance was instantly broken.
Even though they possessed divine characteristics and had extremely strong vitality, they were still inevitably injured when attacked by everyone.
Fortunately, the Lord of the Pantheon retreated quickly, otherwise if it had dragged on, the situation might not be as simple as just getting injured.
Of course, compared to those old void gods who remained on the battlefield, they were only injured, which was already a very good ending.
At least, they are still alive and free.
Those old void gods who remained on the battlefield either died directly, their godhead was destroyed, and their kingdom was destroyed, or they surrendered to the new gods. Even if they did not die in the future, they would probably have no freedom at all.
"Your Majesty, we suffered heavy losses in this war. Not only did we lose a large number of believers and warriors, but several gods also fell. Those gods we summoned are now very dissatisfied with us." Below, a ground spirit who had reached the realm of a middle-level true god, with wisdom in his eyes, slowly explained the impact of this war.
To describe it in one word, it's miserable.
You know, they were the ones who initiated this war, which means they were the attacking party.
In other words, in this war, they have no advantages in terms of timing or location, and the only thing they can offer is probably people.
Before the war, they had thought of relying on the advantages of the battlefield of gods to influence the battlefield of believers within the plane and then achieve the final victory.
Who would have known that in the end, they failed to gain the advantage in the battlefield of gods, but their opponents gained the advantage instead.
The appearance of an unexpected god actually directly changed the course of the entire battlefield.
It has to be said that this was beyond everyone's expectations.
But it’s actually normal.
Although he is just a 'man', he is the Dark Lord who possesses the first-order combat power under the main god.
Even if he is only one person, he is worth dozens of gods.
In addition, the gap in comprehensive strength between the two sides is not that big, so it is not surprising that the situation on the battlefield can be changed.
But no matter what, the losers will pay the price for their actions.
Relatively speaking, the direct losses of the Yad pantheon were not particularly large, and the divine planes that they had previously conquered were still in their hands.
As long as the plane still exists and the forces of their believers can keep functioning, the lost army of believers can be made up sooner or later.
As for the gods, there is nothing we can do about it. However, most of those who have fallen are Void Gods who have recently defected. If there are none left, we can just go and conquer another batch.
Before this, the Old Gods of the Void had the upper hand and were the main attacking party. The other Old Gods of the Void scattered around were naturally unwilling to submit to the Yad God system and become their younger brothers and be led by them.
Now, with the defeat in this war, I'm afraid many of the old gods of the void will have to find a shelter.
Therefore, what really worries the gods of the Yad pantheon is not the direct losses caused by defeat, but the indirect losses.
Their final wave of operations saved a large number of gods from the Yad pantheon, but they also lost credibility among the old gods of the void.
It may not be so easy for them to lead the gods again in the future.
And for the old god of the void who has lost his leader, even if his strength remains strong, it is meaningless.
A clenched fist is more powerful than an open palm.
The old void gods who have lost their cohesion will be very passive in the future... But the Yad gods have no way to deal with this. This is all the evil consequences of their own making.
"Those new gods are now starting to turn from defense to offense, taking the initiative to invade the occupied new gods' planes... However, the targets they choose are mostly the planes of other gods. The planes conquered by our Yad pantheon have not been invaded yet." A god spoke slowly, with an indescribably complicated expression on his face, wondering whether he was happy or sad.
"Hehe, it seems that they also know that we are not easy to mess with. Before in the void, they used their numbers to bully the minority and we could not defeat them. If they come to our plane, I promise to beat them to death," said a dwarf true god with a smile, feeling somewhat proud of this.
"Idiot, do you think this is a good thing?" The dwarf god next to him turned pale when he heard this and couldn't help cursing.
"Isn't it?"
The dwarf true god was a little puzzled.
Most of the other gods did the same, looking at the dwarf god in confusion.
"Have you been fooled by the power of faith? You can't even understand such a simple truth! Think about it, why did those new gods unite to fight against us when we attacked other planes? It's obvious that we are not fighting against them."
The dwarf god was angry at his companions’ lack of fighting spirit and despaired of their wisdom. He shouted, “You must know that between us and these new gods, only one side can survive. Now they are attacking other void gods not because they want to let us go, but simply because we are too powerful for them to attack for the time being.”
"Once they have dealt with the other Void Gods, it will be our turn. Do you think we can resist the attack of the new gods with the power of our pantheon alone?"
Everyone was speechless. They were not brainless. They were able to become gods and gods of faith. None of them were simple.
It’s just that on weekdays, using force is more convenient than using the brain, so they don’t like to think.
Now that I have been enlightened, I quickly figured out the reason.
"This"
"What should we do? Without their help, we will be dead if we rely on ourselves!"
All the gods present were a little panicked and frowned. Obviously, no one was arrogant enough to think that they could fight against the entire new god force with just one pantheon.
Arnold, the earth spirit in the second position and the only one of the two upper true gods in the Yad pantheon, glanced at Div with a gloomy face above him, and then said: "Things are irreversible. What's the point of talking about this now? We should look to the future." In fact, they can accept the losses caused by the defeat, but they are very uncomfortable because of the bitter consequences of "betraying" the gods.
But the people of the Yad God system couldn't say anything. After all, Dif did this to save them and preserve the power of the Yad God system.
Arnold's words made the dwarf god on the throne of gods look a little better.
After all, although no one dared to say it openly before, the current situation has evolved into this state. If we trace the source, we will eventually find Him responsible.
Arnold's eyes flickered, and a gentle smile hung on his face. He then said, "Rest for a while and heal your injuries. Then we will rescue the other Void Gods."
"There is no eternal friendship or hatred between gods, not to mention that when gods fight each other, there will be casualties. When they joined the battle, they should have expected this outcome. They didn't run away because they were not capable enough, not us."
Arnold said coldly: "Once they are beaten up and realize how powerful the new gods are, they may come to us for help without our help."
After hastily concluding the meeting, the planes under the command of the Yad God System entered a state of full defense. As for everything that happened in the outside void, they turned a deaf ear to it and did not care at all.
After the dark gods left.
The new god forces located in the surrounding areas also turned from defense to offense, launching a full-scale attack on the old gods of the void, and recovering the previously lost divine planes.
After experiencing a great defeat, the old gods of the void had all kinds of problems that had been suppressed due to their strength. Now they were directly exposed. Faced with the new gods who were barely united, they had almost no power to resist.
They did not have a deep control over the planes they had previously conquered, and had not even completely wiped out the original forces of believers. Now that they were being attacked from both inside and outside, the outcome was predictable.
The army of believers of the new god was unstoppable, and the divine planes were recovered one after another.
The old god of the void, knowing that he could not hold on, did not insist on it.
Except for some gods, that is, those gods who achieved the status of true gods by relying on "conquering the plane", they have been tied to the entire divine plane and cannot escape at all. Most of the old gods of the void have retreated to their native planes.
This is normal. After all, most of these old gods of the void do not have the so-called friendship among each other. If the new god had not fallen into the void, when the restrictions of the void were lifted, it would probably not be a battle between the old and new gods, but a battle between the gods of the void.
Even if they are subordinate gods, they will abandon them without hesitation when their own interests are involved.
Their strength is not as good as the new gods, and now they are trying to split.
Under multiple influences, in just a few decades, one third of the divine plane that the new gods had lost in the past two hundred years was recovered, and there was no sign of the speed slowing down.
The cautious and prudent god players did not rush to attack the native plane of the old gods of the void, but instead took advantage of the weak ones.
As I said before, time is on their side.
As time goes by, their overall strength will become stronger and stronger until they crush the Old Gods of the Void, so the ones who should be anxious are the Old Gods of the Void, not them.
After recovering the gods' planes, they did not divide those planes directly, but gathered the remaining faith in gods within the planes, preparing to revive the fallen god.
Of course, the number of gods who actually perished is ultimately small.
Most of the god players had already fled with their kingdom of God in the later stages of the invasion after realizing they could not defeat the enemy.
Now that the plane has been recovered, they can easily take over again and regain control of the plane that belongs to them.
A small pantheon formed by god players.
Located in the center, this plane is several times larger than the average large plane.
The believers, who had just ended a great war, were now rebuilding the city and restoring the local people's livelihood.
In the fiery red kingdom of God.
"Fuck, those guys are really lingering around. Instead of fighting against so many people, they just target me!" Fang Xingchen, a man with red hair and wearing armor, exudes an extremely fiery aura. It is obvious that the battle just ended not long ago and has not yet subsided.
"It's because you are not strong and have a lot of good things. If not you, who should I target?" A vague voice sounded, and then an old figure emerged in the temple.
Fang Xingchen was not surprised by the appearance of the old man.
"Old man, you woke up so soon. I thought you would sleep for a hundred years this time." Seeing the old man, Fang Xingchen couldn't help but smile. His annoyance due to the invasion of the old gods of the void was also relieved a little. Then he said with some confusion.
"It's just a fusion of a few things. Why does it take so long?"
The old man shook his head, looked at Fang Xingchen, and said with a smile: "After I merged the fragment, I made some new discoveries. Do you want to listen to them?"
"New discoveries? What kind of discoveries?" Fang Xingchen asked.
"It's about the thirteenth level, which is the promotion above the main god." The old man replied slowly.
"What! Holy shit!"
Fang Xingchen was shocked when he heard this and almost jumped up from the throne. He looked at the old man and asked, "Have you recovered all your memories?"
Fang Xingchen was not very clear about the old man's identity. He only knew that he was the remnant soul of a god from ancient times.
When he was alive, he must have been a great man, most likely an existence that surpassed the realm of the main god.
Now, my soul is broken and even my memory is incomplete.
"No, I just remembered a few things."
The old man shook his head, then smiled and said, "So, do you want to listen?"
"Nonsense, I'll definitely listen! I won't suffer any loss anyway!" Fang Xingchen rolled his eyes.
The old man nodded slightly, and did not continue to hang him, and then said: "Didn't I tell you before that if you want to advance to the thirteenth level, you need something special?"
"Yes, do you remember how to get it?" Fang Xingchen nodded.
"more or less."
The old man nodded and said, "If you want to get a ticket to advance to level thirteen, you need to go to a place first."
"Where?"
"Chaos Continent."
The old man said slowly: "Before, I couldn't sense it, but now I can finally sense it." (End of this chapter)
