At this moment Xu Ran finally understood why the [Kingdom of the Underworld] was so low-key in the Beastmaster Alliance.

This way of opening up authority is simply unheard of!

If this gets out to the outside world and people know about it, they may not be able to tell who the villain is!
Capturing mythical creatures and even the masters of their lineages, transforming them into divinity through rituals, from the source, the authority of these mythical creatures and even the way they evolve at each stage have been distorted into the appearance of the [Kingdom of the Underworld].

"This so-called power of faith is probably an important part of this divine infection and transformation ritual."

Xu Ran made this speculation based on the knowledge he now has.

A beastmaster, even if he has not yet signed a contract to tame a beast, has received the care and support of the beast and, to a certain extent, is also considered an extraordinary creature.

The desires and distractions of billions of extraordinary creatures gathered together to form the power of faith. Xu Ran knew that it was not something easy to control.

While using this power to become stronger, you will definitely be transformed by this power.

Every moment, we are washed away by the power of faith that is a combination of endless desires and distracting thoughts. Sooner or later, we will be distorted and our cognition will change towards the power of faith.

"Is faith poisonous? Is incense poisonous?"

Xu Ran thought to himself.

It is precisely because of the [Kingdom of the Underworld]'s attainments in the way of the soul and its use of the power of faith that it has such a bizarre way of developing genealogical authority.

At the same time, Xu Ran also understood why there was such a fierce conflict between the [Ultimate Kingdom] and the [Kingdom of the Underworld] even though they both had the same path of divine beast taming!
The two are not on the same path at all.

It is not a simple contradiction between monotheism and polytheism.

The way that the [Kingdom of the Underworld] creates divine beasts is probably considered absolutely heretical in the eyes of the [Utopia].

They are irreconcilable enemies!

"So, your [Kingdom of the Underworld] forbidden experiment is to seize the authority of the Outer Gods through this distorted divinity, so as to achieve the supreme status of your [Kingdom of the Underworld]?"

Xu Ran said to Doom with a look of disbelief on his face.

It was also a forbidden experiment, done jointly by [Yunmeng Daze], [Twilight of the Gods], and [Foolish Old Banquet]. Compared with [The Kingdom of the Underworld], it was nothing!
What the three of them wanted to do by joining forces was just to harness the power of the outer gods and use it as nourishment to manifest their illusory entities.

And what about the [Kingdom of Hades]?

What he wants to do is to directly seize the complete authority of an Outer God!

It's like an ordinary, unknown lineage master is trying to seize Di Jun's position as the Emperor of Heaven!

No, brother!
You [Kingdom of the Underworld] are usually so low-key, how come you managed to do such a big thing without saying a word?
I thought that [Foolish Old Feast]'s ability to stir up trouble was already unrivaled in the world, but I didn't expect there would be another master?
That's an Outer God!

Directly seize the other party’s authority and status?

Do you have to be so domineering!
"I remember Doom said that the mythical lineages of the entire Beastmaster Alliance are actually conducting more or less taboo experiments in private..."

"Don't come down and look around at the end. In fact, we are the three most honest and do the most conservative things, right?"

Xu Ran thought so in his heart.

Feeling the surprise in Xu Ran's tone, Doom revealed pride!

With a fanatical look on his face, he smiled and said to Xu Ran.

“This is the wisdom of Pharaoh!”

"..."

Xu Ran was silent, and for a moment he didn't know how to evaluate this move by [Kingdom of the Underworld].

Even if the experiment failed, Xu Ran had to admit that the other pharaoh did have unimaginable wisdom and courage.

At least as for the matter of seizing the complete authority and status of the Outer Gods, Xu Ran now only dares to think about it.

For example, through Li Fu, the conceptual authority of the Six Paths of Reincarnation, 'True Spirit', re-endowed him with the incarnation of the Lord of All Changes.

Reversely seize the complete authority and person of the Lord of Change.

An Outer God is a branch of one's own lineage!
Although I don’t dare to do it now, I still have the courage to think about it... and it’s great!

Suddenly, Xu Ran realized something else.

Although I know the general operation process of the taboo ritual of [Kingdom of Hades], there is still a key question...

How did TMD [Kingdom of the Underworld] let the Outer Gods complete the first step of burying the gods in the underworld?

The way [Kingdom of the Underworld] develops its lineage authority is indeed overbearing.

But there is a prerequisite.

That is to kill or imprison that mythical creature, completing the prerequisite for burying the god in the underworld.

Otherwise, how can we use the authority of lineage and the power of faith to transform?
Then it would be contradictory to elevate the way the Underworld develops its genealogical authority to the status of an outer god.

The other party does not have the same level of status and authority as the Outer Gods, so it is impossible to kill or imprison him!
If you want to kill or imprison the existence of an alien god, you must possess this level of status and authority!
Under such a contradiction, it is impossible for [Kingdom of the Underworld] to complete the first step.

But, the ridiculous thing is, the other party actually completed it!
And this taboo experiment was carried out to a very deep level.

There was even a time when countless beastmasters in the entire [Kingdom of the Underworld] possessed a second beastmaster talent, and it was a special type of beastmaster talent!

Although it ultimately failed.

But this also shows that the other party really buried an outer god in the core secret realm of the [Kingdom of the Underworld], in the underworld!
"Do you have the ability to kill Outer Gods?"

Xu Ran asked in disbelief.

But Xu Ran's response was still one full of pride and enthusiasm.

“This is all Pharaoh’s wisdom!”

Is it the wisdom of Pharaoh again?

Xu Ran fell silent again.

How come the Lord of the genealogy of [the Kingdom of Hades] sounds much more powerful than Odin and old man Lear?

What kind of amazing wisdom is this that can kill an Outer God?
But it is obvious that Doom does not want to explain everything with this simple sentence.

After a moment, he continued to explain.

"That was during the expedition..."

Expedition period?

Xu Ran was shocked and noticed this key word.

This is history that was buried by the league's ban.

Almost all the geniuses of an entire era died in this war.

An entire era was destroyed!
In this glorious historical period, the only one who survived was the incarnation of the Lord of Change, Xu Ran’s good friend - Li Fu!

Xu Ran's knowledge of the expedition period was limited to Li Fu.

Among the records that Xu Ran had access to, the key information about the expedition period was vague.

Xu Ran could only speculate that the fall during the expedition was because in the final war, these passionate young beastmasters had swung their weapons at the almighty Outer Gods.

This led to the fall of this glorious period.

Could it be that, in the last war of the Crusade period, these young and passionate geniuses actually managed to kill an Outer God?

So what does this have to do with Pharaoh’s wisdom?

Xu Ran's eyes revealed doubt.

So Doom went on to explain.

"In that war, the Pharaoh of my [Kingdom of the Underworld] also participated..."

The Pharaoh of the [Kingdom of Hades] also participated?
Xu Ran frowned.

In Xu Ran's understanding, the pioneering corps during the expedition period were all composed of young and passionate talented beastmasters of that period. How did you, the master of a top mythological lineage, get in among these young people?
"In fact, in that war, the beastmaster who survived was not only the one from the Foolish Old Feast."

"Our Pharaoh of the Underworld also survived."

Doom went on to explain.

However, Xu Ran heard a problem.

For a being of the Pharaoh's level, even if he had faced that war, confronted the Outer Gods head-on and survived, he should not be described as having survived.

This is somewhat insulting to Pharaoh, the master of the top mythological lineage.

unless……

Unless Pharaoh was also a young man like Li Fu back then!
Xu Ran remained silent, realizing the crux of the problem.

"Has the master of your lineage experienced a generational change?"

Xu Ran directly asked about Doom's guess.

This conjecture was also confirmed by Doom.

"Many generations have passed... This is the 23rd generation of Pharaoh!"

After seeing Doom calmly nod in acknowledgement, Xu Ran was surprised.

He thought that according to Doom, the lineage master of the Underworld had changed many times, but he never thought that the number would be as many as twenty-three!

This means that the pharaoh during the expedition period participated in the expedition while he was still growing up.

And before he fully grew up, he participated in the last expedition war and survived that war.

In the end, he used methods that Xu Ran could never imagine, and completed the ritual of burying the gods in the underworld on an alien god!

This is no less impressive than Odin's feat of denying the doomed fate of the sealed lineage.

"Because the Pharaoh is the core of the [Kingdom of the Underworld] lineage, and is the great existence that carries everything..."

Doom slowly explained the ultimate secret of the [Kingdom of the Underworld].

Artificial divine creatures, this way of developing lineage authority is indeed extremely domineering and efficient.

But there is a problem.

All the pressure fell on the master of the lineage alone.

The authority is getting stronger and stronger, the power of faith is getting stronger and stronger...

It was like a curse, deeply imprinted on the Pharaoh.

While you are staring into the abyss, the abyss is also staring into you!
The burden caused by this type of development is quite harmful even to a powerful being like the Pharaoh.

As a result, the Pharaoh of the [Kingdom of the Underworld], even with the support of the beasts he tames, has a lifespan far shorter than that of the masters of other mythological lineages, and even shorter than that of ordinary mythical beast tamers!

This leads to the situation that the leaders of other mythological lineages, as if the lineage has been the same for all eternity, have never rotated.

However, the number of times the [Kingdom of the Underworld] rotated has reached a terrifying twenty-three!
Even if the [Kingdom of the Underworld] is the oldest lineage in the Beastmaster Alliance, this number is too exaggerated.

The position of Pharaoh was inherited through some kind of reincarnation.

The monster who has the essence of the [Kingdom of the Underworld] lineage as his talent for taming beasts will be the next Pharaoh!
This kind of reincarnation is completely different from possessing another's body!
Each pharaoh can be said to be a completely different individual.

In fact, what they inherited from their predecessors was only the knowledge and amazing wisdom accumulated from generation to generation!

This also made each pharaoh more powerful than the previous one.

At the same time, because of this curse, his lifespan is shorter than that of his predecessor!

But by the time of the 23rd Pharaoh, the wisdom of the 23rd generation of Pharaohs finally came up with a solution to this curse...

——Seize the complete authority and status of the Outer Gods!
When you reach this level, you will no longer have such worries.

Otherwise, although each generation is stronger than the previous one, when this foundation accumulates to the point where there are no more geniuses to carry it, the time will come for [the Kingdom of the Underworld] to be destroyed.

When the life span of the pharaohs was shortened from thousands, hundreds, or even decades to a few years or even a few months...

[The Kingdom of Hades] no longer has any meaning to continue to exist.

Dare to think and do!

This Pharaoh, relying on the wisdom of twenty-three generations, plunged directly into the expedition period and became one of the most dazzling geniuses of that brilliant period!

Finally somehow survived and completed the first step...

Burying God in the Underworld!

"So why did your Pharaoh [of the Underworld] choose me and plot against me?"

Xu Ran asked.

But this time, Doom shook his head.

"How can I possibly guess the wisdom of the Pharaoh..."

"No!"

Xu Ran interrupted Dum and stared at him.

"You know...at least, you have a guess!"

"..."

The two people suddenly fell into silence.

But Xu Ran's eyes did not shift away.

"I think……"

After a long while, Doom finally compromised and spoke out his guess.

"I always want you to inherit the wisdom of the Pharaoh and become the next Pharaoh, right?"

"The succession to the throne of Pharaoh has nothing to do with the power one currently possesses, but rather the weight that one's soul can bear..."

"Perhaps according to Pharaoh's prophecy, your soul can carry the authority and status of the [Kingdom of the Underworld], or even the Outer Gods!"

"You just need to..."

"I reject!"

Dum's words were interrupted by Xu Ran.

"what?"

Doom was stunned.

"I reject!"

Xu Ran spoke again.

"This is a chance to ascend to heaven in one step and become the master of the genealogy! Even a chance to grow to the level of an Outer God!"

Doom didn't understand why Xu Ran expressed his rejection so bluntly.

Xu Ran shook his head.

He doesn't want to become a short-lived strong man... This method is not suitable for him after all!
Besides...

Xu Ran looked at Doom again.

"You are absolutely right. You really cannot see the wisdom of your Pharaoh!"

"How could a being with such amazing wisdom want to simply choose a successor to take over his burden and become the next victim after him!" (End of this chapter)
