Chapter 721: Dark History of the Primordial Era
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Bang! Bang!
An intense power of misfortune surged out. At the salt lake, wind and rain interwove together, and the mirror-like lake cracked as tides shot up nonstop. In the sky, thunder roared and lightning flashed, seeming incredibly dreadful. Facing such a disaster, Chen Feng stepped forth and, under everyone's gaze of shock, like a little boat, Chen Feng intruded upon the calamitous world that seemed capable of turning heaven and Earth upside down at any moment.
Bang! Bang!
"This guy…"
"He really entered by himself…"
"I can feel godly power seething within. This is a disaster."
Everyone's heart fluttered as they saw this.
"Fear not. He is the spokesperson of the Luck Goddess."
"Yeah." Everyone recalled this. "If it's the Luck Goddess…"
Bang!
The waves were as violent as ever. Everyone gazed over expectantly. In the midst of that terrifying environment, Chen Feng's small figure was akin to a tiny boat that could be destroyed at any moment, swaying about without stop. But it was this very swaying figure that stood tall without collapsing. The terrifying disasters, the astonishing phenomena, the violent godly power, not a single one could even touch him.
"This…"
"How powerful!"
"Worthy of being the spokesperson of the Luck Goddess indeed!"
"Looks like we have followed the correct person after all."
"Haha."
Everyone was overjoyed. The terrifying disasters of the lake had been blocked by him alone. At this time, within the chaos, Chen Feng was frantically absorbing the power of misfortune. The Luck Goddess's attacks were like a baptism to Chen Feng, who was accepting all the misfortune without stop.
Ultimately, calm returned to the lake once again. The disasters vanished, and the sky became sunny and cloudless again. The reflection of the sky was visible on the lake's spotlessly white mirror-like surface, as if heaven and Earth had joined together, leaving only a tiny crack behind. On that crack stood Chen Feng, looking so very quaint when merged with his surroundings. The disasters from earlier were like nothing but illusions.
"It's… over?"
"I think so. The disasters were initially heading toward us. However, he stepped forward and instead ended those disasters."
"I saw it clearly. In there, he was merely waving his hand around softly. With each wave, part of the disasters disappeared. The Luck Goddess is already this powerful?"
"How strong!"
Everyone was shocked.
"Worthy of being Chen Feng indeed…"
"Huh, I thought his name was Wang Feng?"
"One was his name during the Primordial Era, one is his present name."
"Oh, okay."
Everyone accepted this explanation. In truth, this was quite an interesting alliance. Half of them were the supporters of the Luck Goddess, while the other half was the supporters of the Misfortune Goddess. Thanks to Chen Feng, both sides had joined together to protect (screw) the Luck Goddess.
With the disasters gone, the group of resonators started advancing once again. Regardless of whether they wanted to protect or eliminate the Luck Goddess, they were all presently overwhelmed by their emotions and filled with confidence in this operation, since the goddess they were supporting was powerful enough.
At the same time, the Luck Goddess could still feel the aura that made her jittery. Zhou Ye's aura seemed to have become even stronger.
"Blocked yet again?"
She frowned. This abandoned son of a god had actually reached this level? Leading all the resonators, they were getting nearer and nearer to her.
"Looks like I have to think of something."
The Luck Goddess focused her gaze. She had no idea her disasters had been absorbed by Chen Feng. However, after several failures, she was already aware that such methods were ineffective against Zhou Ye.
"Has he gotten a hold of some karma-defying divine tools?"
The Luck Goddess started guessing.
If so…
Shua!
Light swirled before her. The godly power of luck emanated out from her. Instantly, a myriad of possibilities appeared before her eyes.
Mhm… this one, then.
"Let everything stop here," The Luck Goddess said coldly.
Shua!
A huge amount of the godly power of luck surged out. A terrifying aura started rippling out. At this point, the group led by Chen Feng had already traversed a large portion of the lake. They had initially been expecting more disasters to appear. Surprisingly, none had appeared.
"How smooth."
"There is no longer any danger."
"Is this thanks to Chen Feng as well?"
"Haha, worthy of being the spokesperson of the Luck Goddess indeed. This feels way too good. No wonder so many people were willing to submit to the Luck Goddess during the Primordial Era. This feeling…"
Everyone was filled with excitement. This completely unobstructed manner of traveling truly felt too good. Chen Feng and Zhou Ye were the only ones that exchanged glances with a frown.
"You haven't been…" Zhou Ye could not sense any godly power around Chen Feng.
Chen Feng sighed. "Nope." He had initially been looking forward to the free misfortune power. Unexpectedly, this Luck Goddess was able to react so speedily. It seemed like his absorption of misfortune would have to stop here. He checked the amount of misfortune he had accumulated: 1,800 points. Somewhat higher than the initial pitiful 100 points the Misfortune Goddess had had.
Chen Feng was regretful. "Too low."
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
Since she had awakened from her serious injury and after spending countless years in recovery, she had only recovered 100 points. This Chen Feng fellow had scammed over 1,800 points in such a short period of time, yet he was complaining that it was a low amount?
Chen Feng was all smiles as he comforted her. "Calm down, it will all be yours sooner or later."
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
Zhou Ye frowned. "I'm afraid things will be troublesome now." He had never looked down on the Luck Goddess. If she had kept sending disasters their way, it would have been fine. This sudden calm instead caused his heart to be on alert.
"That's for sure." Chen Feng curled his lips. "I suppose she has already realized that normal methods will not work on us. As such, she is preparing to do something big. Mhm… Based on my understanding of her…"
Chen Feng looked at the sky. Apocalypse? No. The disasters she had sent their way earlier had not been much different than an apocalypse. Thus, with how luck worked, only one possibility was left. Chen Feng instantly understood.
Zhou Ye thought of the same possibility as well. "You are saying…" At this time, the alliance was still advancing carefully and was getting nearer to the forest. At present, the reflection of the forest could already be vaguely seen. Suddenly.
Bang!
Lightning filled the sky.
Chen Feng's heart trembled. Here it comes!
Bang!
A huge claw ripped the sky apart, forcefully tearing apart the sunny and cloudless sky. From the opening, a giant fierce-looking creature slowly crawled out. It had a huge body reaching several hundred meters in length. On its body were dense scales, and a terrifying aura was being emanated out of it. Naturally, these were not the scariest aspects of this beast. When this giant creature appeared, when everyone got a clear look at it, everyone was truly shocked.
Their expressions sank. "This is…"
A deafening howl resounded. "Howl—" For the first time, the true appearance of that fierce giant creature was revealed.
"Dragon…"
Everyone was alarmed. That's right. This here was a primordial dragon!
Chen Feng was speechless. "So you guys even had such life-forms during the Primordial Era?"
"…" Zhou Ye gave Chen Feng an odd glance, wondering why Chen Feng would say that if he was from that era as well. However, looking at this terrifying dragon, he soon forgot his doubts.
"Where else did the legends of dragons come from?" Zhou Ye answered with a bitter smile.
Chen Feng shrugged. "I thought it was merely big lizards or something like that…"
"That is because, back then, during the Primordial Era, one particular dragon that was incredibly ugly committed a huge crime and was expelled from the dragon tribe. Unable to pass on its bloodline, that particular dragon raped a huge lizard, performing an act that was also known as the greatest disgrace of the Primordial Era. Subsequently, numerous weird life-forms came into being, such as the so-called wyverns. Naturally, all these life-forms are also known as fake dragons."
Chen Feng: "…"
What the hell? Such a dark piece of history exists?
Chen Feng pointed. "How about this dragon here, then…"
"Naturally, this is a true dragon." Zhou Ye smiled bitterly as he looked at the gradually approaching dragon. He could feel that this dragon had yet to recover to its peak. However, even without being fully recovered, it was already stronger than everyone here.
Bang!
The primordial dragon descended. A terrifying aura arrived together with the dragon. Almost immediately, two comparatively weaker resonators started coughing blood from the pressure emitted by the aura, almost dying then and there. Zhou Ye had a solemn expression on his face.
"This time… I think we have truly encountered some huge trouble."

Chapter 722: See How I Deflect a Heavier Force with a Lighter Force
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At the salt lake, Chen Feng and Zhou Ye were both staring solemnly at the primordial dragon.
"Have you fought one of them before?" Chen Feng asked with a sigh.
"It is impossible for us to defeat one of them, not even in a lifetime. In the past, when we saw one of them, the only thing we were able to do was flee hastily to survive the encounter."
Zhou Ye was utterly distressed. The primordial dragon was a unique race so powerful that they did not even fear the gods. A life-form like this…
"Why has it appeared here, then?" Chen Feng asked with a thoughtful look. If this dragon was truly so powerful, why would it listen to the Luck Goddess? There was only one possibility.
"Luck," Chen Feng and Zhou Ye said at the same time. That's right. In truth, the Luck Goddess wasn't particularly familiar with this dragon either. She had merely used her godly power of luck to create coincidences, enabling this dragon to appear right here and awaken right at this instant. That was all there was to it. This was something Chen Feng had often done. Unexpectedly, when the Luck Goddess was the one creating coincidences, something like this would appear…
"So much more powerful than I was," Chen Feng said with a bitter smile. See, the Luck Goddess had no need to even try saving up her godly power. Regardless of how efficient or optimal Chen Feng had been with controlling his luck value in the past, regardless of his tricks or techniques, he could not compare to the Luck Goddess's straightforward brutish method using her high amount of godly power. See, just like that, she had caused a primordial dragon to appear here. However, if it was still due to luck…
"The release of the godly power of luck should be a one-off thing. The goddess has already used her formidable godly power to enable this dragon to appear here. However, this is where her influence stops. If my guess is correct, the Luck Goddess will not micromanage her godly power to influence this primordial dragon", Chen Feng analyzed.
"Why is that?" Zhou Ye asked instinctively.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. Why else? Because our Lord Goddess simply does not know how to micromanage her godly power.
Chen Feng could only answer, "Perhaps because she is of the opinion that it is unnecessary to do so."
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "True. The primordial dragons have rather bad tempers, especially when they are awakened during cultivation. Their temper when they wake up is excessively bad. I suppose we will all die here…"
Howl—
The primordial dragon glared at them.
Their hearts chilled. "It's over."
"Pr... primordial dragon…"
"No, I don't want to face something like this…"
"Ah ah ah ah ah, run fast."
Some started fleeing in panic. As the dragon saw this, it flickered, and in a logic-defying manner, it quickly moved toward that person before chomping down on that person. Mhm… Cracking sounds could be heard as the dragon chewed on that person.
"Hiss—"
Everyone took in a deep breath in shock. Indeed, even a resonator could not even last a single instant within this dragon's mouth. The gods had awakened, and now these primordial creatures had awakened as well. The primordial would probably fully descend for real now.
Chen Feng sighed. "Dragon… luck…"
Shua!
Godly power started seething around him. That was the activation of his misfortune power. With the 1,800 points of misfortune he had, if he used them all to create a pseudo-luck effect, how powerful would it be? He was quite curious.
Hum—
A faint radiance surged out.
Zhou Ye's eyes widened. "What are you doing? You are wasting your godly power."
"We will never know without trying," Chen Feng said lightly.
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "You are better off using that godly power to flee." He had initially planned to flee together with Chen Feng. Although this dragon was powerful, if they all scattered and fled, they would still have a chance to survive. In the midst of escaping, Chen Feng's misfortune power would prove especially useful. This was what he had planned, yet unexpectedly, Chen Feng was actually wasting his misfortune power here, converting misfortune to luck, to contend against the Luck Goddess.
Good gracious. Had he forgotten how the Luck Goddess had suffered when she had converted her luck to misfortune against him? All the misfortune had been absorbed by Chen Feng! And yet now he was converting his misfortune into luck against the Luck Goddess… This truly caused Zhou Ye to be speechless.
Chen Feng suddenly asked, "Are you familiar with the concept of deflecting a heavier force with a lighter force?" [1] 1
Zhou Ye was puzzled. "No. What's that?"
Chen Feng spoke calmly. "It's a martial arts technique from my hometown. Through timely and precise manipulation of energy, one can deflect or redirect a heavier force using a lighter force. Well, in simpler terms, it is an art of leveraging."
Zhou Ye was still as confused. "Leveraging? What's that?"
"…You will know soon enough." Chen Feng took in a deep breath. He knew that the conversion of misfortune into luck would raise his exhaustion rate. He was also aware that this would not work well against the Luck Goddess. However, one advantage he held over her was that he was more skilled in the technical aspect of controlling luck. When the Luck Goddess manipulated luck, there was no skill involved. She brute-forced through everything.
This was a chance for him, since, after exhausting a huge amount of godly power to get the dragon here, the Luck Goddess would no longer waste her luck power on this dragon. The reason for that was simple. If she continued using her luck to influence the dragon, the exhaustion rate would be too high, so high that the Luck Goddess could not afford it. As such, at such a time when the Luck Goddess wouldn't do anything, he could try converting his misfortune power into luck and see what he could accomplish with it.
At a certain region in the west, a certain mountain range started collapsing. From within the mountain, a huge head stretched out slowly. The brownish color and the cracks on the head gave it a rather vicious appearance.
Ka! Ka!
Slowly, the head raised. Next, a huge body slowly separated itself from the mountain.
Howl—
A booming howl sounded. Behind this somewhat clumsy-looking body, a pair of wings unfurled. A terrifying aura surged, causing all the nearby life-forms to shiver in fear. The aura of a dragon! These life-forms had all sensed the existence of a legendary aura, the aura of a dragon!
"I am back."
That head raised high up in the air, its eyes akin to lanterns.
"I am back! What… you all… owe me… hehe… Chen Feng…"
A sonorous howl echoed everywhere.
Shua!
He locked onto Chen Feng's aura before shooting forth. At this moment, Chen Feng's group's situation was getting more and more dangerous. Some of them were already fleeing, but doing this in front of the dragon seemingly ensured their own deaths. In a short half minute, around four resonators had been killed. Everyone's hearts chilled at this sight.
"So where is your heavier force?" Zhou Ye asked with a bitter smile.
Chen Feng shook his head. "No idea." His misfortune power was already fully exhausted.
His 1,800 points of misfortune power, after the conversion, were roughly equivalent to only 300 points of luck power. Mhm… Based on his estimation using the misfortune pen as the basis, 300 points of the godly power of luck were equivalent to 30,000 points of luck value. This amount was rather similar to what he'd had when he had summoned the apocalypse back then.
Naturally, that time, what he had ultimately summoned had merely been the shadow of an apocalypse, rather than a true apocalypse that would destroy an entire planet. This time, though, his 30,000 points of luck value were all concentrated right here and, as such, should work better.
Bang!
Suddenly, the sky turned dark.
"Ah, shit." Chen Feng raised his head. "Not again…"
The apocalypse he had summoned in the past had been rather outstanding, as it had helped him scare off everyone. However, he did not think a primordial dragon would fall for the same thing. However, right as Chen Feng thought that the apocalypse was going to appear, a booming howl resounded from the gloomy and dark sky.
"Chen… Feng… hand over your life!"
Bang!
The sky was ripped apart. A dragon as huge as a mountain appeared, radiating killing intent.
Shua!
Everyone looked at Chen Feng uniformly. Another one? Zhou Ye looked at Chen Feng, astonishment on his face. So this was the so-called defeating a heavier force with a lighter force? No, this was more like defeating his very self.

Chapter 723: Seems Like It Worked?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Zhou Ye looked at Chen Feng carefully. "Erm… have you forgotten about your disguise?" This guy wasn't planning to kill himself, right? The effect of his luck power was to summon yet another dragon? Was one not enough? Now they had two here? Hold on… Suddenly, Zhou Ye recalled that when the new dragon had arrived, he had shouted, "Chen Feng, hand over your life"?
"You know this dragon?" Zhou Ye asked as he looked at the mountain-like dragon.
Chen Feng was utterly stupefied as well. "Nope." Since when had he known this dragon? Chen Feng comforted Zhou Ye. "Don't worry. Maybe my godly power has yet to come into effect. As for this dragon, it must either be a coincidence or something that slut Luck Goddess summoned."
Zhou Ye: "…"
This did not sound convincing at all.
Zhou Ye inhaled deeply. "When will your godly power come into effect, then?" He looked at these two dragons, feeling like he would die in the next second.
"Soon… I guess?" Chen Feng guessed. He had initially believed that his power of misfortune would bring forth another dreadful creature to fight this dragon. Surprisingly, it had brought forth another dragon instead. Moreover… Chen Feng raised his head and looked at the new dragon, which was getting clearer and clearer. When he finally got a clear look at that dragon, he finally understood why that dragon knew him.
"Shit," Chen Feng cried out in surprise.
Zhou Ye sighed. "You finally remembered this dragon?" Since the dragon had called out Chen Feng's name, they obviously knew each other.
Chen Feng shrugged. "Yeah." He had still been wondering when he had ever offended a dragon, but when he had finally gotten a clear look at the dragon's appearance, he had finally remembered who this fellow was. Long Yue! This was one of the so-called descendants of a dragon, the Long family. What a distant memory…
Back then, when he had been still a weakling, he had once crossed paths with this fellow. If he remembered correctly, Long Yue had obviously died. Why was he still alive? Furthermore, this body... and this aura… He had actually transformed into a dragon for real.
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. Back then, the so-called descendant of a dragon and dragon bloodline had been berated endlessly by everyone, as everyone had been of the opinion that the Long family had gone crazy. There had also been that incident with the seadragon blood. Surprisingly, this fellow was still alive. Even more surprisingly, he had truly transformed into a dragon. In short, one had to have a dream, regardless of how unlikely it seemed, in case the dream would come true?
"What is the point of revising your memory at this time?" Zhou Ye felt like choking Chen Feng to death right here. He was starting to regret making an agreement with this Chen Feng. Why in the world would the luck converted from the power of misfortune screw with the user himself? Was this the so-called "defeating a heavier force with a lighter force"?
"Oh…" Chen Feng was truly at a loss for words this time. That was because his godly power was no longer seething, indicating that his luck had indeed worked. From how things looked, it seemed like his luck had indeed brought forth this dragon, Long Yue. Why had this happened? Chen Feng was completely confused. Mhm… Perhaps this Long Yue was not the Long Yue of the past? Even though there was a grudge between them, it was better than total strangers? That was possible!
"Hello, Long Yue," Chen Feng cheerfully greeted Long Yue.
Long Yue's killing intent surged. "Come and die!"
Bang!
A dreadful power erupted. The terrifying might unique to dragons descended. Immediately after his arrival, Long Yue charged at Chen Feng.
"Shit." Chen Feng was so shocked that he fled backward while trembling.
"How he hates you."
Zhou Ye and the rest inhaled deeply in shock. This Chen Feng fellow… was probably going to die here.
"I have been looking for you for a long time…" Long Yue laughed sinisterly. "Hehehehehe, for me to become this, it is all thanks to you. Hehehehe…"
Chen Feng laughed dryly. "Hehe, does this not count as your wish being fulfilled?"
Suddenly, Long Yue became agitated. "Wish fulfillment? What do you know? This is completely unlike what I imagined… The dragon bloodline… Hahahaha, how could bugs such as you understand it?"
Long Yue appeared deranged and angry at the same time.
Bang!
Once again, he charged at Chen Feng. His mountain-like body started descending.
"Not good!"
The hearts of Zhou Ye and the rest thumped furiously. Instinctively, they wanted to help Chen Feng. But with great sorrow, they found that they couldn't help at all. A dragon's speed and strength were too terrifying—a regular person could never hope to catch up. And yet, surprising everyone there, just as Long Yue was about to reach Chen Feng, a terrifying power flashed past. Just like that, Long Yue's mountain-like body was smashed away.
Bang!
Long Yue smashed into the salt lake, nearly bleeding from the attack.
A furious roar resounded. "Who?" Long Yue charged out of the salt lake, furious. In the sky, the primordial dragon that was even larger floated lazily. His huge head stretched out and gazed at Long Yue coldly.
"Pr... primordial dragon?" Long Yue trembled, as if he had seen something extremely horrifying. Earlier, when he had seen Chen Feng, his eyes had become bloodshot with anger and had not noticed anything else. This was especially true since the other dragon was so huge, like he was part of the topography rather than a life-form.
"…" The primordial dragon regarded Long Yue coldly. The salt lake sank into absolute silence.
Hum—
Hum—
The primordial dragon's eyes flickered with a faint surging power. After a long time, the primordial dragon's ice-cold eyes became even colder. He seemed to have finally seen through the body of Long Yue, seen through everything contained within.
Gradually, the primordial dragon locked his gaze upon Long Yue. "Disgrace… Lizard…"
Long Yue trembled. "No, that's not the case." His body was only slightly smaller than the primordial dragon. However, the terrifying aura unique to a primordial dragon was sufficient to plant fear in his heart.
"I am also a descendant of the dragons! I possess a true dragon bloodline!" Long Yue explained anxiously. "Arghhh, a damnable old man transformed me into a damnable lizard. Only after accidentally obtaining a primordial fragment when the primordial descended did I transform back into a true dragon. I am telling the truth! I truly possess the dragon bloodline!"
And yet the primordial dragon ignored everything he said, merely staring at him coldly while repeating what he had said earlier. "Disgrace… Lizard… Obligated to kill!"
Bang!
Instantly, the primordial dragon raged.
"Damn it!"
Long Yue's expression changed as he sprung backward and fled in panic.
Howl!
A dreadful dragon aura erupted. And thus, two terrifying dragons left the salt lake, one at the front and the other behind it, leaving behind Chen Feng and others, bewildered.
"Seems like… it worked?" Zhou Ye said thoughtfully.
"I guess so?" Chen Feng was unsure as well. His emotions today had truly been like a roller coaster ride, up and down. Nevertheless, this incident with the dragon had finally ended. Even if a few of them had died, the remaining resonators were still terrifying. At the very least, they were terrifying enough for the present weakened Luck Goddess. They all lifted their heads. Distantly, the forest was already within reach.
"Go!" Chen Feng commanded.
Luck Goddess, here we come!

Chapter 724: Scammer!
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
At the forest's edge, when the dragon's aura vanished and the aura of Zhou Ye's group began to grow nearer and nearer, the Luck Goddess finally felt how serious this was. That Zhou Ye was even capable of chasing the primordial dragon away? The Luck Goddess did not feel like that was possible. After all, that was a primordial dragon. She had once used a similar method to defeat her enemy. With her godly power of luck, a primordial dragon had appeared and treated Zhou Ye's group as the enemy. How could the dragon let them off? But even so…
Luck Goddess had a feeling of unease in her heart. "What in the world is going on?"
Hum—
Hum—
A faint godly power surged out. This forest's godly power was already recovering, indicating that it wouldn't be long before the Forest Goddess awakened.
Luck Goddess glanced over. "This is somewhat troublesome." She could feel that the aura of Zhou Ye's group was getting nearer and nearer. From the chaotic mess of auras she was feeling, it was obvious that the quality wasn't too high. Nevertheless, godly power was still godly power. She had initially believed these people to be a chaotic group that was not worth her attention. Now that she looked at them, they seemed capable of advancing or retreating in an orderly fashion with zero internal strife. This was obviously a complete team. That Zhou Ye fellow had awakened way earlier. Was this what he had been focused on doing?
"How much do you hate me? It is a pity that regardless of how strong you guys are, you are all still mere resonators," The Luck Goddess said calmly. Perhaps, it was time to show them the true might of a god.
Shua!
She softly pressed her hand to the ground. Her present godly power was still too weak. Earlier, to awaken the Forest Goddess and deal with Zhou Ye's group, she had already exhausted too much of her godly power. Despite that…
"Let me first borrow some of your power," Luck Goddess muttered.
Bang!
A boundless forest power surged out. With the push from the godly power of luck, the Forest Goddess's power started surging out, enveloping the entire edge of the forest.
Shua! Shua!
The vegetation there started growing rapidly. Next, the entire forest edge was blockaded by numerous green branches, resembling a bird's nest. In the center of this bird's nest was a piece of green fruit that was glowing without stop. This was the Forest Goddess's core. Similar to the Fate Stone and Misfortune Pen, prior to her full awakening, the Forest Goddess was slumbering within this fruit.
At present, with the manipulation of the godly power of luck, a hole appeared in that fruit. Next, a terrifying godly power started surging out of the fruit and entering the Luck Goddess's body.
Hum—
Green radiance flickered about.
Luck Goddess smiled. "Excellent."
Although borrowing the power of the Forest Goddess would cause the Forest Goddess's recovery to take longer, so long as she could deal with those annoying pests, everything would be fine.
Shua!
Luck Goddess gently waved her hand, causing the trees around her to tremble, weaving and swaying about in accordance with the tempo of her fingers.
Luck Goddess smiled. "Ah."
Zhou Ye… I will be waiting for you.
Not far away, at the salt lake, Chen Feng and the rest were already at the edge of the lake. In front of them was a lush forest with a dense grouping of trees.
Zhou Ye did not hesitate. "Come, deal with it." Since even these trees had appeared, the Luck Goddess was definitely not far from them.
Bang!
The group charged forth and started trying to destroy these trees. Alas, they all suffered an intense backlash.
Pu!
Someone coughed up a mouthful of blood, nearly dying then and there.
"Godly power… This is the godly power of the Forest Goddess!" he shouted in alarm. Everyone else's expression sank as they heard this. Were they too late? No, the radiance unique to the Forest Goddess had yet to appear. Furthermore, the Luck Goddess had no way of awakening the Forest Goddess in such a short period of time. But in that case, what was up with the godly power here?
Zhou Ye sneered. "We will know after entering and taking a look."
"Understood."
The group was filled with a desire to do battle. The damnable Luck Goddess, this moment had finally arrived.
"Hold on."
The group that had first signed the contract with Chen Feng suddenly felt like something wasn't right. "Are we not here to protect the Luck Goddess? Since we have already decided to become followers of the Luck Goddess, there is no need for us to enter, right? Staying here is already sufficient. It is not very nice for us to enter impudently," someone said. He had a feeling that something did not seem right. Looking at them, it did not seem like they intended to protect the Luck Goddess?
Zhou Ye: "…"
Chen Feng: "…"
True, he had nearly forgotten that in this group, there were some people that had been scammed by him. These pitiful children were probably still clueless even now. They had all innocently believed that this entire journey had been to offer protection to the Luck Goddess. Mhm…
Well, in any case, at least Chen Feng had told them one single truth: some despicable villains were trying to ambush the Luck Goddess, and this was their chance to perform a meritorious deed for the Luck Goddess!
And thus, these fellows had, in order to get noticed by the Luck Goddess, established the first-ever primordial resonator squad of the present era, and had all agreed to follow Chen Feng despite how difficult the journey had been. And yet… Mhm…
Chen Feng spoke cautiously. "Erm, may I tell you guys a little secret?"
They were immediately on guard. Suddenly, they had a bad premonition. "What?"
Chen Feng shrugged. "In truth, the Luck Goddess is already treating you guys as enemies."
Their eyes went wide. "What joke is this?"
Chen Feng seemed to have realized something and said, "Oh, right, I forgot to tell you guys. Along the way, all the dangers and enemies, and even that primordial dragon, were summoned by the Luck Goddess in order to stop our advance. I hereby thank you all for your hard work. I reckon by this point, she already feels an intense hatred toward all of us."
Chen Feng sighed.
They were all dumbstruck. "Hold on… Are you not her spokesperson?"
Gods would also hate their own spokesperson?
Chen Feng looked at them while smiling. "I used to be. Right now, I'm a free man and the spokesperson of the Misfortune Goddess. The contract you guys signed earlier was her contract."
Everyone's expression sank. "What?" After pouring their senses into their respective contracts to sense the godly power within, their expressions changed greatly. Just as Chen Feng had said, this damned godly power was indeed the godly power of misfortune.
It was no wonder that…
All their doubts from earlier could now be answered. They also understood why this mortal enemy of the Luck Goddess, Zhou Ye, had agreed to Chen Feng's contract. This damnable Chen Feng!
Everyone was furious. "You dare trick us all?"
They had initially believed that, by following the Luck Goddess, they would be joining the strongest primordial camp. Never had they imagined that the beautiful future they had dreamed of had been a lie all along!
Bang!
Killing intent surged out as their eyes gleamed coldly. So what if they had all signed the contract? As per the contract, it would only stay active here in this place. Otherwise, they would have never agreed to sign it in the first place. The moment they left this place… hehe. Everyone already had their gazes locked on Chen Feng.
Chen Feng did not seem to be the least bothered by them. "Calm down, calm down. You guys are all mortal enemies of the Luck Goddess now. Moreover, you guys even signed the contract of the Misfortune Goddess. I have a question… Do you guys intend to offend both the Luck Goddess and Misfortune Goddess?" Chen Feng calmly finished, "I don't quite care either way."
As the rest heard this, their hearts chilled. Misfortune… What would happen if one offended both the Luck Goddess and Misfortune Goddess at the same time? The mere thought caused them all to tremble in fear. It was with utmost grief that all these resonators that had intended to hold Chen Feng responsible realized that even though they knew the truth, they had no choice but to remain in this trap laid out by Chen Feng. What a scammer!

Chapter 725: Already Unrivaled

"Make up your mind yet?"
Chen Feng was rather pleased with how they were behaving. Truly worthy of being resonators, as even their capability of acceptance was higher than ordinary people's. Everyone was remaining silent.
"Well, let us start our work, then." Chen Feng was in high spirits. "This barrier of trees…"
Zhou Ye sneered. "Let us deal with it." Since they were intending to fight the Luck Goddess, how was it possible for them to have come without any preparations?
Shua!
A faint fluorescent powder flashed out of Zhou Ye's hands. The powder drifted through the air before suddenly transforming into a raging inferno that swallowed the entire tree barrier. Slowly but surely, the huge bird's nest darkened, then transformed into ashes and smoke.
Bang!
The flame raged. The tree barrier was not the only thing that was destroyed, as even half the forest's edge was transformed into ruins.
"How powerful," Chen Feng exclaimed in admiration.
Zhou Ye appeared proud. "That is only natural. This is the godly power of my father. With a single spark, a much larger portion of the forest godly power could have been destroyed."
Chen Feng's eyes flashed. "Do you have more of it?"
Zhou Ye's expression dimmed. "No. This is all I have left. Otherwise, why would I be worried about the awakening of the Forest Goddess?"
Chen Feng was speechless. "True."
"Back then, it was precisely because my father's godly power was so much of a counter to the Forest Goddess that the damnable Luck Goddess decided to kill him."
Zhou Ye's hatred was overflowing.
Chen Feng gained understanding. So this was the case. So this grudge originated in the Primordial Era…
Shua!
A cool breeze swept past, sweeping away all the ashes. A rather sinister-looking forest was revealed. Half of it was lush and green, the other half in ruins. Zhou Ye and the rest were in the ruined half, while the other half was glowing with a seemingly boundless radiance.
Hum—
Hum—
A green radiance flickered.
"Be careful."
Everyone increased their vigilance.
"Zhou Ye," a faint voice resounded, seeming to have arrived from the distant horizon.
Suddenly, Zhou Ye's eyes gleamed coldly. "Luck Goddess…"
Each of them had different reasons for hating the Luck Goddess. Presently, they all had surging battle intent. Initially, they had only hoped to prevent the awakening of the Forest Goddess. However, due to Chen Feng's appearance, due to the Misfortune Goddess, they were now planning to slay a god!
Perhaps… this would be their only shot. As for the other half of the resonators, they all felt bitter and somber. They had no choice but to provide support to these enemies of the Luck Goddess, since they now had no other options.
Luck Goddess stared at one of them in astonishment. "Xiao Hua, I can't believe you are part of this as well." If she remembered correctly, this fellow was the spokesperson of a certain god with a rather amicable relationship with her. Why had he gotten mixed up with these people?
Xiao Hua: "…"
Without a doubt, this Xiao Hua was one of Chen Feng's scam victims.
"Sorry, Lord Goddess." Xiao Hua's gloomy gaze swept across Chen Feng and sighed. "This is hard to explain in few words."
"…"
Luck Goddess followed his gaze and looked over. Even if that person had been hiding behind everyone, despite his lowered head, Luck Goddess was still able to recognize him with a single look.
Luck Goddess was somewhat astonished. "Chen Feng…"
Chen Feng had no choice but to walk out of the crowd. "Hey, long time no see."
This guy really knows the Luck Goddess?
Everyone was stunned. They had initially believed that Chen Feng had been telling them pure lies.
The Luck Goddess felt her head aching. "Is there a need for this?"
Chen Feng's relationship with her was too unique, rendering her incapable of both killing and sparing him.
Chen Feng spoke lovingly. "Even if you sealed your emotions toward me, your body will remember it." At this, the Luck Goddess's expression darkened as the memory of the time when she had been dragged into the black room by Chen Feng surfaced. That innocence from back then, the innocence of a first love, was seemingly still lingering about her heart. As for the others around them, they were thoroughly dumbfounded.
Hold on, this script… did not seem to be playing out like they had imagined?
Chen Feng's scam victims were all watching on expectantly, waiting for the plot to develop in a similar direction as a famous movie, Primordial Heat . This movie had been famous during the Primordial Era, as even back then, watching these movies that only required two or three people to create with their abilities had been a rather popular pastime as well. As for Zhou Ye's group, their expressions darkened. The relationship between these two…
Could it be…
Holy shit, they wouldn't be suddenly affectionate after a quarrel, right? If that really happened, then it would be way too excessive! Did these two truly think they were the characters in Primordial Heat ? Fortunately, the Luck Goddess was not moved by Chen Feng.
She looked at him coldly. "I am the one who spared your life."
Chen Feng shrugged. "I know. Therefore, this time, I will spare your life as well."
The Luck Goddess's killing intent surged. "You are courting death." She finally realized that this Chen Feng fellow was truly an annoying person. If she allowed him to remain alive, he might continue creating problems, or maybe he'd start shooting his mouth off, talking all sorts of nonsense…
Shortly afterward, the Luck Goddess decided that she might as well get this over with rather than prolonging the agony. She would directly kill Chen Feng here. Even if she would be pained by it in the future, even if she would regret this in the future… she would deal with this right here!
Bang!
The Luck Goddess's terrifying power started rippling out.
Chen Feng's gaze was sharp. "Here she comes!"
"They started fighting!"
Zhou Ye's group heaved a sigh of relief. That's right, this was how the plot should develop.
"Go!" Zhou Ye barked. Next, thirty-odd resonators, each with a unique godly power, surrounded the Luck Goddess. Alas, horrifying them all, all their powers vanished into nothing. They had all failed their resonance.
They were all horrified. "How is this possible?"
"With the godly power of the Luck Goddess, she is capable of transforming any probability into 0%, which also applies to all your abilities," Chen Feng reminded them.
They were all alarmed when they heard this. Generally speaking, the release of powerful abilities would not have a 100% success rate, as there would always be a slight probability of failure. As for the Luck Goddess, with her unique godly power, she had crippled half their combat strength right off the bat.
"So we can only use abilities with a 100% success rate?" Zhou Ye asked quickly. When using basic abilities, their success rate would definitely be 100%.
Chen Feng spoke coldly. "No. Continue using abilities that are affected by probability. The Luck Goddess has limited godly power remaining. Since she is willing to waste her godly power to change all probabilities to zero, let her continue the exhaustion. I am curious as to how much longer she can last."
"Understood."
Zhou Ye and the rest understood the plan.
Bang! Bang!
Numerous terrifying godly powers bloomed before vanishing into nothingness like fireworks.
Chen Feng: "…"
In truth, the scene playing out truly appeared rather humorous. A bunch of people were surrounding the Luck Goddess and shooting numerous godly powers at her. All the powers landed on her, but none were able to hurt her, since all the godly powers collapsed the moment they landed on her. One time, two times, three times…
After more than 10 times, everyone had already exhausted a huge portion of their godly power. When they noticed that the Luck Goddess still had a toying smile on her mouth, they realized that something was wrong. The Luck Goddess… seemed to still have a lot of godly power remaining!
Chen Feng frowned. "This is not possible." It was impossible for the Luck Goddess to have so much godly power remaining. If she truly had so much, she would have been able to easily kill all of them even when they had been on the salt lake. Why would she have needed to slowly send attacks toward them in waves? And yet, right now, she…
Chen Feng looked at the Luck Goddess before shutting both his eyes. Suddenly, a pensive look appeared on his face. There, behind the Luck Goddess, from the lush forest, he sensed a surging godly power. This power was unique to the Forest Goddess.
Chen Feng was startled. "You are absorbing the godly power of the Forest Goddess!" It was no wonder that she still had so much godly power to spare. The present Forest Goddess had yet to recover. With the Luck Goddess absorbing her godly power in this manner, the Forest Goddess would definitely suffer a great loss, one she would require countless years to recover from. And if all her godly power was exhausted by the Luck Goddess, even if she did awaken, she would be no different than a cripple.
How ruthless.
All of them were alarmed. They had initially believed that the Luck Goddess was only ruthless toward her enemies. Surprisingly, she was also ruthless to those on her side. With this, after awakening, the Forest Goddess would have no choice but to forever stay a subordinate of the Luck Goddess.
Zhou Ye was not surprised at all. "How else did she gain a reputation for being shameless?"
"Hmph."
The Luck Goddess swept her gaze past them coldly, not even interested in offering an explanation to these bugs. A faint godly power started emanating from her hands.
Bang!
Instantly, Zhou Ye and the rest were heavily injured. That's right. Without using any abilities, merely a shockwave of luck power was sufficient to heavily injure all of them.
Zhou Ye and the rest were alarmed. "How is this possible?"
Indeed…
Chen Feng did not find this surprising. it was as he had guessed. When the godly power of luck reached a certain amount, it was almost unrivaled. Doing something like forcing one's consciousness or physical body to mutate negatively would be way too simple. Even Chen Feng had been able to easily deal with four resonators using luck back then, let alone the Luck Goddess. At present, the Luck Goddess was unrivaled!

Chapter 726: New Trick

"This won't do…"
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. The godly power of luck was way too powerful. If this was allowed to continue, only death would await them. As his thoughts reached this point, his gaze swirled around, skipping past the Luck Goddess and landing on the forest behind her. There, a faint radiance was glowing, seemingly calling upon something. Was that the godly power of the Forest Goddess? Chen Feng thought of something.
"Give me some time," Chen Feng whispered to Zhou Ye.
Zhou Ye clenched his teeth. "Understood."
Shua!
With a flash, Chen Feng dashed into the forest.
"Get your ass out here!" the Luck Goddess shouted as godly power surged out of her hands. She was aware that Chen Feng wasn't too strong. However, due to their unique relationship, as far as she was concerned, Chen Feng's presence was akin to a bright lamp. He thought he could enter the forest without being noticed by her? How was that possible?
Bang!
Godly power poured out. With a wave, the Luck Goddess hurled her godly power at Chen Feng.
Bang!
A loud boom resounded. When the dust cleared, it could be seen that Zhou Ye had blocked the attack on behalf of Chen Feng.
Pu—
He started coughing blood, but he did not seem to care as he curled his lips. "Even if you are the Luck Goddess, aren't you being somewhat egotistical by trying to attack Chen Feng while fighting all of us at the same time?"
"Hehe."
The Luck Goddess glanced over and noted that Chen Feng had smoothly entered the forest. She knew that Chen Feng wasn't particularly strong, but she held an innate vigilance toward everything pertaining to him. As such, she was immediately on guard as she vowed to not allow Chen Feng to act recklessly within the forest.
Shua!
Once again, the godly power of luck surged out. If she could not kill Chen Feng with a direct attack, she might as well use her foundational ability: luck.
Shua!
A faint radiance flashed out. Next, multiple powerful and terrifying radiances appeared from the void and directly landed on Chen Feng's body.
Bang!
A bright explosion followed. Immediately after, Chen Feng discovered in stupefaction that he had suddenly gained a huge amount of misfortune points.
Oh…
He had used up quite an amount of misfortune points earlier and had still been worrying about his lack of misfortune points. Surprisingly, this Luck Goddess was so kind to hand over a huge amount of misfortune points to him just like that. Evidently, the Luck Goddess had once again converted luck into misfortune to deal with Chen Feng.
"Worthy of being my beloved Spirit indeed," Chen Feng muttered. His gaze swirled around as he continued searching the forest. Following the trails of the godly power of luck, he finally found the source of her godly power. Somewhere within the forest was a glowing fruit.
Chen Feng's eyes shone. So it was you!
Bang! Bang!
Wave after wave of attacks arrived from the Luck Goddess. As a result, Chen Feng's misfortune points increased from 20 points to 50 points, 80 points, 100, points, 200 points… increasing at a speedy rate. It was at this point that the Luck Goddess felt that something wasn't right.
"What's going on?"
Why were her attacks ineffective against Chen Feng? Why? She was way too clear on how strong Chen Feng was. She was also incredibly clear on the abilities Chen Feng had, even more clear than Chen Feng himself. That was why she did not fear him. She was clear that all the miracles Chen Feng had ever created had been reliant on luck.
Essentially, all his accomplishments were thanks to her. The Luck Goddess took pride in this and was aware that it was because of this that, as Chen Feng had lost his Luck Aura, he was now nothing. This had always been her opinion. Yet why were luck attacks completely ineffective against him? Why?
Had Chen Feng gained immunity since he used to own Luck Aura? Or perhaps Spirit—or more accurately, she herself—had deliberately done this before her emotions had been sealed? This was what was giving the Luck Goddess a feeling of discomfort. She did not fear Chen Feng, nor did she fear any enemies. However, she could clearly feel that a portion of Spirit's memories had been erased prior to the fusion. Before she had fused with the other her, part of her memory had been deleted!
What were the contents of the deleted memories? An uncensored version of their life in the black room? She had no idea. Was it related to Chen Feng's immunity to her luck? She was clueless.
Perhaps Spirit had been afraid that she would directly kill Chen Feng after the fusion. Therefore, she had altered Chen Feng's constitution. Mhm… That was quite probable. The Luck Goddess sighed at the thought of being set up by herself.
Bang!
The bright explosions around her continued. The attacks of Zhou Ye and the rest intensified. Although none of the attacks were effective, this sudden change in tempo caused the Luck Goddess to further increase her vigilance. She gazed into the distance and noted that Chen Feng had discovered that fruit, the core of the Forest Goddess.
Luck Goddess smiled. "So this is your goal?" Getting Zhou Ye's group to tangle with her while he himself rushed in, making use of his immunity to luck, all this to put a check on her godly power? How ridiculous. That was the Forest Goddess they were trying to check here!
…
"Is it thanks to this thing here?"
Chen Feng could clearly feel the unending supply of godly power from this fruit.
Mhm…
How should one describe this fruit? It looked like a coconut that had had a straw stuck in it by the Luck Goddess, who was presently sucking out godly power without stop. Chen Feng could clearly see godly power surging out of the small hole without stop and then flowing into the Luck Goddess's body. Splendid. So long as this absorption was stopped… Chen Feng tried blocking the flow with something.
Hum—
The godly power continued to flow. In fact, the connection between the Luck Goddess and this fruit was an illusory link that was immune to normal interferences.
Luck Goddess shook her head and sneered. "Idiotic human… Can the likes of you even hope to understand the might of a god?"
Bang!
Her godly power erupted, and instantly, two resonators received grave injuries. They could no longer hold on.
Bang! Bang!
Chen Feng tried numerous methods capable of blocking auras but still failed to stop the outflow.
He got so annoyed that he decided to directly destroy this fruit. "Damn it."
Sorry, Forest Goddess.
Since he couldn't stop the Luck Goddess's absorption, he had no choice but to destroy this fruit. Unknown to him, the Luck Goddess's face still held the same toying expression.
Bang!
Chen Feng smashed down resolutely.
Ka!
A crisp sound echoed, but the fruit suffered no damage.
The Luck Goddess shook her head. "How stupid."
If the core of a god could be destroyed so easily, they would have died countless times in the past. It seemed like she had indeed overestimated Chen Feng. Without luck value, he was indeed not worthy of her attention.
"Let us end this," Luck Goddess said with a calm expression.
A mighty godly power erupted. Bang!
Zhou Ye looked at Chen Feng with a bitter smile. "Is this your plan?"
Earlier, Chen Feng had worn an expression of absolute confidence, causing everyone to believe that he had a special technique capable of stopping this battle. Unexpectedly… this was his so-called plan? Wasn't it common sense that the core of a god could not be destroyed? This Chen Feng fellow…
By this point, they were already speechless. To send Chen Feng into the forest, they had exhausted all their energy. The Luck Goddess's next attack was already underway. It seemed like they would die for real this time.
Bang!
The godly power descended.
Their hearts chilled. "It's over."
As for the Luck Goddess, with a sneer on her face, she prepared to kill them all. However, at the last moment, she instinctively glanced over at Chen Feng and was instantly shocked by what she saw.
Her expression changed greatly. "Chen Feng, what are you doing?!"
Everyone else looked over as well. There, above the indestructible fruit, a pen-shaped thing had been taken out by Chen Feng. Next, he aimed the pen at the hole in the fruit, then inserted the pen.
Plop!
A familiar inserting sound could be heard.

Chapter 727: I Heard That You Gods Can Also… Do That…
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
???
Everyone was dumbfounded.
"What are you doing?"
This was Zhou Ye's first reaction. Had this guy gone crazy? What was the point of poking the Forest Goddess? However, he soon reacted to what truly mattered. Why in the world was Chen Feng even able to insert into that pen? This was the core of a god, which could also be known as a divine tool. Zhou Ye glanced over and confirmed that Chen Feng had truly inserted the pen into the fruit. How was this possible?
Zhou Ye was thoroughly dumbstruck. As for the others around him, they were similarly stupefied. Evidently, none of them had recovered from the shock. As for the Luck Goddess, she wasn't any better off than the others. One ought to know that even the Luck Goddess herself was incapable of dealing any sort of damage to the Forest Goddess's core.
Even for her, she had to use her godly power of luck to influence the fruit into naturally generating a small hole by itself so that she could absorb the Forest Goddess's godly power. The core of a god was, for all intents and purposes, indestructible. Yet this Chen Feng had forcefully inserted something into one such core! She glanced over and noted that the hole she had created was extremely tiny, whereas the pen Chen Feng was holding was comparatively larger than the hole. Just like that, this pen had been forcefully inserted into the fruit.
This scene… Zhou Ye and the rest trembled when they saw it. Suddenly, they felt like coming here with Chen Feng was no different than courting death. Indeed, they had been hostile to the Luck Goddess since the Primordial Era. However, they had still maintained respect toward the other gods. But now… it seemed like Chen Feng had done irreversible damage. One did not need to be a genius to figure out that once the Forest Goddess awakened, none of them would be let off.
Everyone's heart chilled. "Chen Feng, screw you!"
Luck Goddess was almost infuriated into insanity. "You… what are you doing?"
Chen Feng curled his lips. "Sealing your source of godly power."
"No, this is blasphemy toward a god!" The Luck Goddess was so furious that she started shuddering. She had never seen a person dare to insult a god in such a manner. This Chen Feng fellow clearly lacked even the smallest amount of respect toward gods. What was she supposed to tell the Forest Goddess in the future? Although the Forest Goddess had yet to awaken, her consciousness was definitely there. When she finally woke up…
The Luck Goddess was collapsing emotionally as she imagined the consequences. At this moment...
Shua!
Light swirled around. The link of godly power between the Forest Goddess and the Luck Goddess was finally severed. Chen Feng had indeed sealed the godly power of the Forest Goddess with a single pen.
Chen Feng appeared pleased. "See, it works."
With the link severed, the Luck Goddess would not have much godly power to spare. So long as they defeated her, they would be able to smoothly retreat afterward.
Zhou Ye and the rest merely laughed dryly. "Hehehehe." Indeed, with this, they would be able to deal with this Luck Goddess. Alas, in the future, another god, the Forest Goddess, would be hostile toward them. It was all because of this damned Chen Feng!
"What's the point of thinking about it so much?" Chen Feng glared at them, then pointed at the Luck Goddess. "Grab her."
Bang!
Everyone shot forth.
"You dare?" The Luck Goddess was furious. Unfortunately, at present, she didn't have much Godly Power. She was only able to resist for a short period of time before being seized. Finally, they had achieved their goal in coming here.
Zhou Ye was emotional. "Finally, the time has come to settle my grudge…"
Chen Feng flashed a wide smile as he looked at them. "How does it feel? The only existing god at present has been captured by you guys. Hehe, don't you guys feel like you are the elites of this era?"
As the rest heard this, they were in high spirits. Indeed, that was true. After all, they had captured a god alive!
Zhou Ye was still able to maintain his calm. "So how should we deal with her?"
Everyone looked at the Luck Goddess. "Kill?"
The Luck Goddess sneered, and her icy cold voice resounded, "Hehe. I am a god, undying and inextinguishable. Even if I fall to slumber here yet again, when I wake up in the future, I will be able to regain what I have lost. Do not think that since it will be many years in the future, it will have nothing to do with you guys. I know a lot of gods, and they have numerous powerful abilities capable of dragging you guys back… At that time… I shall have my sweet revenge!"
As the rest heard this, their hearts chilled. Shit. Even Zhou Ye felt his scalp tingling. They had hated this Luck Goddess for way too long. Perhaps each of them had, in fact, been of the opinion that this mission would not succeed and thus had not thought of a method to deal with her should they succeed. Even when talking about it in passing, they had simply said that they would kill her. But now… how should they kill her? How could they?
Everyone looked at Chen Feng. After all, this operation was led by him. "What do you plan to do?"
Chen Feng did not hesitate. "I want her to die."
Zhou Ye: "…" Holy shit, hatred born from love is indeed scary.
For people like them, their grudge had persisted for so long time itself had diluted their feelings toward it. Rather, it was this Chen Feng here who wanted to kill the Luck Goddess due to the stupid melodramatic relationship between him and her. However… this was a god he was thinking of killing here. The gods had all died during the Primordial Era, yet here they were, alive again.
The only exception was… Everyone looked over at Zhou Ye as their thoughts came to this point. Zhou Ye's father was also a god, yet he had been killed for real, not leaving any trace of his existence behind.
"It is very troublesome to accomplish," Zhou Ye said with a bitter smile. "To truly erase a god, even a single god, requires the joint effort of a huge number of gods. This feat is simply impossible for a regular person."
Everyone sank into silence. They looked at the tied-up Luck Goddess and blanked. In short, even after capturing her, they were still helpless against her?
Zhou Ye looked at Chen Feng. "You two are rather familiar with each other, right?"
Chen Feng had a melancholic look on him. "Yeah. However, she sealed off her emotions from that period, keeping only the memories. As such, she no longer cares about me now."
Zhou Ye: "…"
Fine, gods are indeed capable of anything.
And thus, here at the edge of the forest, Chen Feng and the other resonators stared at the Luck Goddess, anxiety plastered all over their faces. By the side was a fruit with a pen inserted into it. Mhm… What a beautiful scene.
"Do you have any ideas?" Chen Feng asked the Misfortune Goddess. Alas, even the Misfortune Goddess could not think of anything. The act of erasing a god required extremely unique methods, and excessively harsh conditions would have to be fulfilled as well. With just Chen Feng and these resonators here, it was impossible.
Chen Feng curled his lips. "Is it really so hard?"
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "Of course. I am not too clear on how to erase a god. However, I happen to know of a certain requirement. To erase a god, first you must kill all of the god's believers."
Chen Feng was utterly dumbstruck. All the believers? What kind of joke was that? This was the Luck Goddess! Even in his previous godless world, a bunch of people had still believed in luck and would try anything to get better luck, let alone this world, this era, where gods existed for real.
Chen Feng was sure that in this world, there was definitely a huge number of people silently praying for good luck. Mhm… At the very least, this applied to those producers at the Gene Production Association, since luck played a huge role in gene production. Hence, if one wanted to erase the Luck Goddess, one would have to first kill half of all existing life-forms?
Zhou Ye shrugged. "That is truly one of the requirements for erasing a god. To truly erase a god, the most basic requirement is to cause the god to have no believers. Naturally, we do not even need to kill the god. We only need to ensure the god will have no believers, even for a single instant. That would be sufficient."
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. "How is that even possible, though?" If it was any other god, fine. But this was the Luck Goddess…
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "This is why she was able to become one of the strongest gods in existence back then. Because she is undying."
"Is it truly so hard to kill a god?" Chen Feng muttered as he regarded the Luck Goddess in front of him. Maid training would most probably not work, since he had already attempted it with Spirit in the past. How about other methods?
The Luck Goddess wore a look of disdain and sneered as she regarded this group of pathetic people. "Hehe." How could slaying a god be so easy? This was especially true when the ones attempting were simply a group of resonators that had yet to even fully recover their own strength in the first place. This mission of theirs was nothing but a joke. However, when she saw Chen Feng's gaze, the gaze of someone harboring evil designs, her heart thumped.
Suddenly, Chen Feng spoke. "Zhou Ye. You are the descendant of a god, right?"
Zhou Ye nodded. "Mhm."
Chen Feng had a faint smile as he asked, "In short, gods can make babies as well?"
The Luck Goddess's eyes went wide. What was this guy trying to do?

Chapter 728: Betrayal
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"What are you thinking of doing?" the Luck Goddess asked, her eyes wide.
Chen Feng pondered shortly and said, "I am considering an extremely serious question. You can seal your emotions. You can also erase your memories. But if you have a child, I reckon you won't kill your own child, right? Mhm…"
The Luck Goddess trembled. Zhou Ye and the rest were so shocked that they shivered upon hearing this. Holy shit! What was this guy thinking of doing?
Zhou Ye trembled. "Do not act recklessly." At this point, he was already regretting his decision to follow Chen Feng here. Shortly after inserting the pen into the Forest Goddess… her core… Chen Feng was now planning to do a proper "insertion," one with the Luck Goddess? Everyone felt their lips go dry. They were all from the Primordial Era. They were all aware of how terrifying that era had been. Each of them had a clear idea of how powerful gods were. As such, when it came to gods, even if the god was an enemy, they would still feel an innate fear.
Yet this Chen Feng… did not seem to know fear.
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "You will create a huge mess if you insist." Just imagine the scene where, during the Primordial Era, if the almighty and noble gods found that one of them was raped in such an insulting manner… What would the other gods think about this? Even gods hostile to the Luck Goddess would not let the offender off! This was not simply an act of offending the Luck Goddess alone. Rather, this was an act of provoking all the gods in existence. Zhou Yue advised Chen Feng earnestly.
Chen Feng felt regretful. "I truly can't do it?"
"No, you can't." Zhou Ye tried his very best to stop Chen Feng. He was truly worried that Chen Feng would go and "do" the Luck Goddess due to his lack of consideration. Holy shit, he had heard before that the single guys of this era were very scary. However, he had never expected that the scariness of these single guys could reach this level, that they dared even think of doing it with a god.
Chen Feng nodded regretfully. "Fine." He had no choice but to agree to this, since even the Misfortune Goddess within him was frantically trying to stop him from creating a huge mess.
Chen Feng curled his lips. "What cowards." Why would they have so much consideration for an enemy?
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
At this point, even the Misfortune Goddess regretted her choice in selecting Chen Feng. She kept feeling that this fellow's brain was filled with troublesome ideas, as he would always thought of numerous despicable schemes. Was he not worried that, one of these days, his own schemes would be the cause of his death? Finally, after being persuaded from many sides, Chen Feng gave up on this idea he had deemed perfect.
"Do not worry. I was merely joking," Chen Feng said with a wide smile.
Hehehehehe.
The others all laughed dryly, not buying what he said.
"What else can we do, then?" Chen Feng asked as he looked over at the Luck Goddess.
"…"
At this point, the Luck Goddess was getting panicky. She was a god, one who dared to face anyone, even other gods. Her dignity as a god would not allow her to submit to anyone. Even in death, she would still remain the noble Luck Goddess! Therefore, even after being captured, she had no fear whatsoever. However, this Chen Feng here was the sole exception…
She was truly anxious, as she had noticed that as far as this Chen Feng was concerned, she was no god. Rather, she was a sweet lamb waiting for slaughter. For him to even think of making babies with her, she wondered what other bad ideas he would come up with.
Suddenly, she recalled something. It was no wonder that Chen Feng came up with such ideas. He was from a different world. His mindset had been forged from his lives in two worlds. Even back then, when they had still been together, Chen Feng had already been filled with such despicable ideas. However, at that time, Chen Feng had still been trying to stay on the side of justice and had kept his despicable schemes somewhat in check.
Yet now… When she took away all his strength, Chen Feng seemed to have joined the dark side?
"Chen Feng! I admit that it was my bad. Before leaving, I shouldn't have drawn out all your strength. Look, you guys can't kill me anyway. Why don't we forget about it? You guys let me go, and I promise to never seek revenge for this. I can even sign a contract of gods. I will give you guys a perfect ending for this incident. The Forest Goddess and the other gods… I will not try to awaken them anymore. What do you think? Yes, Zhou Ye and you guys… I know I owe you guys a lot. The things that happened back then, I will compensate you guys for after I regain my godly power. Ample compensation will be given, ensuring you guys or even your descendants can stay ahead of everyone else. How about this? After all, even if you guys kill me now, it will be pointless," the Luck Goddess said.
They exchanged glances, somewhat tempted. True, why had they stayed hostile with the Luck Goddess for so many years? Hatred? Against a goddess that would not die, what could they do about their hatred? As for those who had merely inherited their hatred from a previous generation, time had erased the hatred, leaving behind nothing but a habit, a habit of staying hostile to the Luck Goddess.
And now, the Luck Goddess being willing to apologize and even compensate them was sufficient for them to settle for peace.
"I am willing to sign a contract of gods." The Luck Goddess had fully admitted defeat. Perhaps in the future, she would still remain a noble and almighty god. However, the moment she signed the contract, she would no longer be able to do anything toward these people here. Rather, she would be forced to protect them instead.
"I want everyone… and their descendants… to live good lives without encountering any hiccups," Zhou Ye said solemnly.
"Done," Luck Goddess agreed without hesitation. For others, this would be a difficult request. However, for the Luck Goddess, this was simple.
Zhou Ye shut his eyes. "Good." He knew that this was the only way that they could end this incident. He was still feeling indignant, but everyone here had people they cared about. He was the only one here without any relatives or people to care for. As such, what was the point in staying stubborn? In any case, these were the people who had survived through the Primordial Era with him… It was about time he stopped dragging them down.
Perhaps the time had come for him to let go of the grudge involving his father. Zhou Ye reached a decision.
"Then… let us sign the contract," he said.
The Luck Goddess was overjoyed. "Good." She found this contract insulting. However, so long as she signed it, she would be free of Chen Feng.
Chen Feng was feeling deep regret. "In truth, we can ask for more." He felt like, at this moment, that little flame within him representing his villainous side was blazing like a sun.
Zhou Ye shook his head. "This much is enough." As long as she satisfied these requests, he would forget about everything.
"Fine." Chen Feng smiled. "Misfortune Goddess, it is about time for you to do what you promised me," Chen Feng said inwardly.
Misfortune Goddess was somewhat anxious. "Is this… fine?"
"What about it isn't fine? Hehe. That child sacrificed way too much for me. This is what I owe her," Chen Feng said calmly.
"Fine," the Misfortune Goddess agreed, feeling somewhat helpless.
She had felt like her partnership with Chen Feng was a road of no return. She couldn't help but wonder if this choice of hers was correct… At this time, the Luck Goddess and the rest were preparing to sign the contract.
Shua!
The contract of gods started glowing. Just as they were about to sign it, the fruit of the Forest Goddess started glowing. A terrifying power rippled out, causing the entire forest to tremble.
Everyone's expression sank. "This…" The Forest Goddess was going to wake up soon! What was going on? Everyone was dumbstruck. Zhou Ye looked over at the Luck Goddess with an unsightly expression. To his surprise, he saw a bewildered expression on the Luck Goddess's face. She was clearly as confused as he was.
The Luck Goddess was shocked. "This is not possible. Without the assistance of the godly power of luck, it is impossible for her to awaken."
"Luck…" Suddenly, Zhou Ye realized something. "Chen Feng!!!"
They turned around to look at Chen Feng and found that, as of an unknown time, Chen Feng had disappeared. They had merely agreed to sign a contract, yet Chen Feng was already gone. As for the pen that had been inserted into the fruit earlier… it had vanished as well.

Chapter 729: Chen Feng, Is Your Brain Damaged?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Zhou Ye blanked. "We have been tricked!" He had truly never expected that during such a crucial moment, Chen Feng would mess with them. This person, the one who had led them all here, was the very one who was messing this up.
"Chen Feng!" Zhou Ye howled. He had truly never expected that Chen Feng would betray them.
Chen Feng's unhurried voice drifted over from the edge of the forest. "As I said... I want her dead. You guys might be willing to compromise; however, that does not apply to me. I am not a traitor to the cause. You guys are."
The Luck Goddess blanked. "Chen Feng?" She had no idea what Chen Feng wanted to do. But since the seal had been released…
Shua!
She could once again feel the surging godly power within her.
Bang! Bang!
The earth started trembling.
The Forest Goddess is on the verge of awakening?
Luck Goddess checked the amount of godly power she had. Next, she hesitated momentarily before waving her hand, forcefully suppressing the awakening of the Forest Goddess. It was still not the time for the Forest Goddess to awaken. The Forest Goddess, the moment she awakened, would definitely stop lending her godly power to the Luck Goddess. At that time, the Luck Goddess would be in a different sort of trouble.
The only reason the Luck Goddess was even awakening the Forest Goddess was so she could obtain a helper, since the Forest Goddess was the most obedient one of them all. However, if the Forest Goddess's strength exceeded a certain level, this obedience would no longer be guaranteed. As such, she decided to first suppress the awakening before anything else happened. If things truly did not play out as she planned… The Luck Goddess's eyes gleamed coldly as she thought of a possibility.
Bang!
She started absorbing a huge amount of godly power from the Forest Goddess. This time, she would not allow any mishaps to happen. As for these people here…
Shua!
Her eyes gleamed coldly.
Bang!
Godly power erupted. Since Chen Feng had taken the Misfortune Pen with him, the Luck Goddess was once again linked with the Forest Goddess and was once again filled with power.
Bang!
She waved her hand. Next, a huge number of resonators died one after another.
Zhou Ye was furious. "Luck Goddess!"
The Luck Goddess merely snorted coldly as a reply. "Hmph!"
A terrifying godly power erupted. Even Zhou Ye, the son of a god, could do nothing but defend and watch on as the terrifying godly power engulfed him.
Shua! Shua!
Resonators died one after another. Under the rage of the Luck Goddess, none of them were able to escape.
"Chen Feng…" Zhou Ye clenched his teeth. "What do you want, exactly?"
He truly could not understand. If Chen Feng wanted to kill the Luck Goddess, why had he unsealed her source of power? Why would he allow the Luck Goddess to once again establish a connection with the Forest Goddess? He felt like Chen Feng's brain was damaged, to have come to such a decision.
"Chen Feng, the next person to die will be you," the Luck Goddess said, boundless godly luck power swirling around her. Earlier, she had been trying to restrict the usage of godly power to avoid damaging the Forest Goddess. But now, in her rage, she no longer cared and was instead absorbing the Forest Goddess's power without stop.
Bang!
A formidable godly power bloomed. The huge group of resonators all died, leaving only Zhou Ye, who was struggling with great difficulty.
The Luck Goddess sneered. "Descendant of a god?"
Bang!
With a single kick, Zhou Ye started coughing blood. It was quite clear that he was stronger than the other resonators. However, that was all there was to it. Facing the relentless Luck Goddess, he couldn't persevere much longer.
Pu!
Yet another mouthful of blood was coughed up.
"I can't last any longer?" His expression dimmed. "It is unfortunate that I wasn't able to kill you."
The Luck Goddess sneered. "That is because of your own greed for the benefits you stood to gain. If you guys had truly come after me due to the grudges we had, why would you guys even consider signing the contract?"
Zhou Ye smiled bitterly. "I…" His hatred toward the Luck Goddess was indeed irreconcilable. However, when those people had decided to give up on revenge to obtain some benefits, he had decided to compromise for their sake, as those people had dedicated their lives to him.
Alas, he had neglected Chen Feng. True, they had all agreed to sign the contract, but what about Chen Feng? After all, the biggest reason he had wanted to kill the Luck Goddess was probably the Misfortune Goddess, right? He did not blame Chen Feng. It was as Chen Feng had said: they were the ones who had betrayed him.
However, since Chen Feng wanted the Luck Goddess dead, why had he released the Forest Goddess? Zhou Ye could not understand.
Chen Feng… what exactly are you planning to do?
Bang!
A surge of godly power blasted forth. Once again, Zhou Ye was flung away. This time around, he remained on the ground for a much longer time. This time, he was probably going to die for real.
Zhou Ye gazed at the sky helplessly and watched on as the Luck Goddess approached him, as that terrifying attack neared him. Right at this instant, the forest suddenly trembled.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The entire edge of the forest started trembling furiously.
The Luck Goddess had a bad premonition.
This…
Hum—
Hum—
The seething godly power of the Forest Goddess increased in intensity.
"How is this possible?"
The Luck Goddess couldn't believe it. How had the Forest Goddess resumed the awakening? She had obviously been suppressed. With the Luck Goddess's boundless godly power of luck, it should be impossible for the Forest Goddess to resume her awakening. It would be apt to say that as of this moment, awakening was an impossibility for the Forest Goddess.
Suddenly, Zhou Ye understood. "Hahaha!" He smiled. "Chen Feng… So it turns out you are planning to kill her this way…"
"What are you saying?" The Luck Goddess's gaze was cold as she wondered how this could relate to Chen Feng. Hold on. Luck… And that pen of Chen Feng's… Why had it been able to seal the Forest Goddess's power earlier? Hold on… She had obviously absorbed all his strength… Luck… And that pen… Using Spirit's memories, the Luck Goddess was able to reach a conclusion: misfortune!
That pen had been unearthed together with her back then! The Misfortune Goddess! Suddenly, all of her questions from earlier were answered. From the moment Chen Feng's group had entered the salt lake, all the accidents and coincidences that had happened were finally explainable. All of that had actually been the work of the Misfortune Goddess!
"Bitch!"
The Luck Goddess's expression sank. She had initiated the awakening of the Forest Goddess with the power of luck. Subsequently, she had converted luck into misfortune to force the Forest Goddess to stop awakening. And all that had most likely been sensed by the Forest Goddess even in her slumber. This was even truer now, since she was still linked with the Forest Goddess. Her act of absorbing a large portion of the Forest Goddess's godly power, nearly one-fifth of her power, was sufficient to turn them both against each other, making them enemies!
"Not good."
Ultimately, the Luck Goddess intelligent.
After figuring out how everything was related to that b*tch, Misfortune, she was able to quickly deduce the truth and was figure out her only option as of this moment: fleeing! With that slut, Misfortune, absorbing the misfortune power she had been using to suppress the Forest Goddess, the awakening was no longer stoppable; she had no choice but to flee. And yet…
Bang!
Suddenly, a terrifying power erupted. Near the forest, a seemingly boundless patch of vegetation started growing madly. No longer were these regular trees. Around each tree was formidable godly power.
Shua! Shua!
Once again, the forest was sealed up.
Bang!
The earth trembled, and a lush green started growing. Zhou Ye smiled at this sight. The Forest Goddess had finally awoken.
Bang!
A green branch swept out, forcefully flinging the escaping Luck Goddess into the forest once again.
A tender voice sounded, "You… have been too excessive!"
Evidently, the Luck Goddess's actions had thoroughly angered the Forest Goddess. The entirety of the forest seemed to be going berserk. A violent power was surging from the forest. Who was the one who had absorbed her power? Who was the one who had suppressed her awakening? And who was the one who had ultimately allowed her to awaken? The Forest Goddess was clear on all these things.
The Luck Goddess's expression sank. "Not good."
The Forest Goddess was indeed the most obedient, but she was also the most stubborn. During the Primordial Era, when everyone had been cursing the Luck Goddess, the Forest Goddess had stubbornly stuck around. Yet now, the moment she saw what kind of person the Luck Goddess was, she naturally possessed the most intense hatred toward the Luck Goddess. As such, the Luck Goddess had no intention of trying to argue her way out of this.
Flee! This was all she could do now. Earlier, when she had first had that bad premonition, she had been able to absorb a huge amount of power before the awakening. She believed that with this much godly power, she would have no problem escaping. Alas, right as her godly power surged out, a sense of oppression appeared around her, as if this was what the heavens had mandated.
"Misfortune!" the Luck Goddess shrieked furiously. It was this b*tch yet again!

Chapter 730: Welcome Back
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Pu!
The Forest Goddess's attack landed on her. As of this moment, any sort of superiority the Luck Goddess had was counteracted by the Misfortune Goddess. If her guess was correct, what Misfortune was using at present had been freshly absorbed from her, absorbed from the misfortune power she had been using to suppress the Forest Goddess earlier. This slut!
Bang! Bang!
The Luck Goddess tried to flee repeatedly, but she was blasted back without stop.
"I…"
Bang!
"You…"
Bang!
The Forest Goddess's attacks were unending. She was incredibly furious now. Initially, she was supposed to awaken quietly here in this land. She greatly enjoyed silence, but unexpectedly, the Luck Goddess had tried to awaken her early. Moreover, the Luck Goddess had even used that method to absorb her power, causing her core to be poked by that human… Toward the end, the Luck Goddess had even been trying to suppress her awakening! How hateful! The Luck Goddess had already crossed the line.
Bang! Bang!
Slowly, the terrifying attacks come to a halt. On the ground was the Luck Goddess, covered in injuries.
The Luck Goddess glared at the Forest Goddess. "You… won't be able to kill me. The next time I return, I will teach you the terrifying consequences of betrayal."
Bang!
Yet another of the furious Forest Goddess's attacks landed.
Pu!
Once again, the Luck Goddess was hit.
"I will not allow you to easily return," the tender voice replied. A green radiance glowed brightly. The green enveloped and permeated the Luck Goddess's body. Suddenly, the Luck Goddess's body became translucent.
Zhou Ye's expression widened. "This…" It was rumored that the Forest Goddess was capable of erasing the consciousness of all existences. He had always believed that this only applied to regular life-forms. Surprisingly, even gods could be affected.
"You… will not be able to truly erase me," the Luck Goddess coldly said. "At most… this will… only… delay my return… There will be… a day that I return… yet again…"
Slowly, her life force dimmed and vanished.
Shua!
Her figure vanished thoroughly. Just like that, a god had been slain.
Zhou Ye was shaken. "Dead…" The Luck Goddess had ultimately died. Although this death was not eternal, the fact that her consciousness had been erased was shocking in itself, even if the Luck Goddess had still been able to converse clumsily. For her to recover both her physical body and consciousness, many years would be required, right? This was much more terrifying than the death of the pure physical body. The Forest Goddess was truthfully much more terrifying than she appeared to be.
Shua!
The green shone, and from the darkness, a little girl walked out. Zhou Ye shut both his eyes as this happened. He realized what he had done. He was clear that he would most probably not survive this encounter.
The girl regarded him coldly. "Your name is Zhou Ye?"
"Yes, Lord Goddess," Zhou Ye answered in a dispirited manner.
"Very good. You shall temporarily be my spokesperson," the tender voice resounded.
Zhou Ye blanked. "Huh?"
Her furious voice resounded throughout the entire forest. "Help me… locate… that… damnable evil person called Chen Feng!"
Hum—
A green radiance swirled out. Next, Zhou Ye's body hovered in the air and his injuries started healing. On top of that, a brand-new godly power started echoing within his body. This was a power unique to the Forest Goddess.
"Okay." Zhou Ye was overjoyed. It seemed like the Forest Goddess was a person of reason after all, for her to be aware of who her true enemy was. With what Chen Feng had done to her… Mhm… Zhou Ye reckoned that it wouldn't be long before Chen Feng was dead.
"I will now go recover my strength. If you manage to find Chen Feng, call out my name," the Forest Goddess ordered.
"Yes," Zhou Ye answered deferentially.
Shua!
With a flash, the Forest Goddess and her aura vanished into thin air.
Although she had awakened, because of what the Luck Goddess had done, she was greatly weakened. As such, she would have to go in search of other forests to recover her strength.
Zhou Ye looked around. "Chen Feng…" Chen Feng had gone missing at an indeterminate moment in time. Perhaps… he should go out and take a look at the human world. Chen Feng was a human and possessed an extraordinary status. As such, Zhou Ye was confident that he would be able to locate Chen Feng in the human world.
However, he still couldn't understand why Chen Feng had decided to do what he had. Was a hatred birthed from love truly so terrifying? He would rather awaken the Forest Goddess, would rather be the enemy of such a powerful goddess, just so he could kill the Luck Goddess? What was Chen Feng's true goal? Zhou Ye could not understand. Or perhaps one could say that he had not known anything from the start.
Chen Feng, what exactly do you want?
Shua!
Zhou Ye stood up and vanished in a green flash. At the forest's edge, only numerous patches of ruined forest were left behind. Apart from that, there were various godly powers lingering in the air and corpses sprawled everywhere. This place would henceforth be known as an ominous land. A cold breeze brushed past, blowing away the smell of death pervading this place and bringing forth a certain figure to this land.
All gone? Chen Feng wondered as he walked about. Both the Forest Goddess and Zhou Ye had left. Around him were just the corpses of resonators.
Chen Feng smiled calmly. "See? Is this not the cost one ought to pay for greed? If you guys truly hated her, you guys would never have died here like this."
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
"Well then. Time to start," Chen Feng indifferently said. Everything he had done had been for one single goal.
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
"I have no intention of listening to any objections," Chen Feng said coldly.
"…"
The Misfortune Goddess remained silent for a short while before answering, "I understand."
She did not want to do this, especially since she this was something she disliked doing. However, she dared not disobey Chen Feng, as she found that she feared the consequences. To be more accurate, she feared Chen Feng.
She had personally witnessed everything Chen Feng had done. She was also the only person aware of exactly what Chen Feng had done. With a flip of his hand, he could create clouds or summon rain as he wished. Moreover, if it had been either her or the Luck Goddess with such a pitiful amount of misfortune power, neither of them would have been able to accomplish what Chen Feng had. The Misfortune Goddess had not felt the least bit of joy upon seeing the Luck Goddess get tricked, only fear.
So it turned out that when a person gained such a thorough understanding of another person, things could be so terrifying? This should apply even to gods.
Shua!
The Misfortune Pen trembled. Next, a faint power of misfortune started converting into luck. The Misfortune Goddess unleashed all her stockpiled power, transforming it into the power of luck and proceeding to pierce through space itself, blending into the very location the Luck Goddess had fallen into earlier.
Hum—
Radiance swirled about. Chen Feng watched on as everything unfolded, waiting for all the preparations to be completed.
He pointed at the air. "And now, wake up, Luck Goddess!"
Bang!
Instantly, a terrifying power started converging there. A huge whirlpool appeared there, and a seemingly boundless power started gathering there. The earth where the Luck Goddess had fallen started trembling. Next, a translucent figure appeared. Surprisingly, this was precisely the Luck Goddess. However, the present Luck Goddess was a mere translucent figure. She had a blank look, and both her eyes were suffused with white. This flawless body of hers seemed more like an empty shell.
"Her consciousness has been erased," the Misfortune Goddess confirmed.
"Can it be reinstated?" Chen Feng asked.
"Yes. However, a very, very long time will be required. Perhaps even longer time than the time between the Primordial Era and now…" The Misfortune Goddess was sure.
Chen Feng was extremely pleased to hear this. "Splendid."
Shua!
A faint godly power started swirling about.
Gently, Chen Feng pointed his finger at the Luck Goddess's forehead. "Time to wake up." Suddenly, the figure trembled. Next, the blank expression started moving, and those empty eyes suddenly filled with emotion again.
Slowly, a smile unfolded on her face. "My little master."
Chen Feng smiled. "Welcome back." The Luck Goddess had indeed been killed. Her newly regained physical body had been killed, and her consciousness had been erased. However, one particular consciousness had remained. That was the consciousness that had followed Chen Feng in his rise, the consciousness that had been sealed off by the Luck Goddess when she had sealed away her emotions. That was the part of the Luck Goddess that was Spirit—the memories unique to Spirit alone. This had been Chen Feng's true goal, to resurrect Spirit! To resurrect that very consciousness that was completely unrelated to the Luck Goddess!

Chapter 731: The Somewhat Awkward God-Slaying Process
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Spirit had returned. In a way, this version of the Luck Goddess was incomplete. However, it did not matter. As far as Chen Feng was concerned, this was the true Luck Goddess, since she was Spirit. This alone was sufficient for him.
"Will she still return?" Chen Feng asked softly.
"Mmm…" Spirit gave it some thought. "I guess so?"
No matter what, the Luck Goddess was the Luck Goddess. Just as the Misfortune Goddess had mentioned, even if it would take a very long time, a day would arrive where she once again descended upon this world.
"Mhm."
Chen Feng sank into contemplation. Spirit had only remained because the Luck Goddess had thoroughly separated and sealed the emotions belonging to Spirit. If, the next time the Luck Goddess returned, she fused with Spirit, any death would probably result in Spirit's death as well. That was because the two of them were essentially one.
"Let me think about it." Chen Feng regarded the Spirit before him as he vowed to think of a solution for this. He had no intention of keeping a time bomb by his side at all times. It would be way too dangerous for his liking. Mhm… Perhaps he could use a simple method capable of solving everything, such as… making a bunch of babies?
This method was incredibly attractive. However, Chen Feng was sure that the moment the Luck Goddess returned and found out, considering how ruthless she was, she would do everything in her power to kill Chen Feng. Therefore, he needed to focus on suppressing her return.
"Let me think. If your consciousnesses were essentially one to begin with…"
Chen Feng had a pensive look as he contemplated. Spirit and the Luck Goddess were unlike those clones. The two of them were essentially one, and therefore, so long as Spirit was alive, the Luck Goddess could return at any time. This was the most terrifying aspect.
This signified that… the Luck Goddess was in fact contained within Spirit? Or perhaps… Chen Feng sank into yet another round of contemplation.
Spirit opened her eyes wide and regarded Chen Feng. "Little master?"
"Yes, I have an idea." Chen Feng had thought of an extremely simple solution: filling her up! Essentially, if the Luck Goddess was a consciousness that had transformed into countless particles after being destroyed and was hidden within Spirit's consciousness, what if Spirit's consciousness was all filled up? In his previous world, this had been one of the methods that could be used to prevent the recovery of deleted data.
In his previous world, anything deleted from a phone or computer could be easily retrieved. This had also been the source of all those leaked xx videos. Those tech noobs hadn't known that the so-called deletion of data was in fact not true deletion, even after emptying the recycle bin. This was similar to the eventual recovery of Luck Goddess.
However, if, after deleting the data, one filled the storage with lots of dummy data… depending on the circumstances, the previous data could be truly irrecoverable. This could similarly apply to the Luck Goddess. His intention was to stuff Spirit full so as to thoroughly erase the consciousness of the Luck Goddess.
"Let me transmit some data to you," Chen Feng muttered. "However, do not try reading or understanding it. Within, there will be lots of repeating data. Just ignore it all. And don't delete it either. Let it fill your mind for now."
"All right," Spirit agreed blankly.
"Only start deleting data when it gets to the point that you can no longer hold any additional data," Chen Feng said.
Spirit nodded. "All right."
"Well then…" Chen Feng pointed at her forehead. "Let us begin."
Bang!
A huge volume of data surged into her mind. All of Chen Feng's experiences, everything he had seen and read, all the movies he had seen, numerous truths, imaginations, and illusions—everything was stuffed into Spirit's mind. Within was also a huge amount of repeating data. Instantly, everything was unleashed into Spirit.
"Ah—" Spirit clasped her head, an expression of pain on her face. However, a goddess was still a goddess, after all. She was still able to resist the pain. Chen Feng had pushed his spiritual energy to the maximum and duplicated all the data a thousand times, yet Spirit was still able to endure and did not seem to have reached her limit.
Chen Feng: "…"
So strong? He had initially imagined that Spirit would not be able to take in all this. Surprisingly, he had instead failed to fill her up. Exactly how strong was the consciousness of a god?
"In that case…" Chen Feng took in a deep breath. Earlier, he had transmitted only half of his life to Spirit. After all, there was still a huge amount of data that he felt was unsuitable for Spirit's eyes. However, it no longer mattered now. At a time like this, he had to give it everything he could.
Bang!
The other half of his life was duplicated a thousand times, then dumped into Spirit.
Bang!
It entered Spirit like a storm.
Spirit grabbed at her head in pain. "Ah—"
Apart from the pain, there was also an odd expression on Spirit's face. That was because, this time, there was a lot of messy data being transmitted to her, including a huge amount of data with "unique labels." Fortunately, after this trump card of Chen Feng's, Spirit's consciousness was finally stuffed full. Endless data filled every corner of Spirit's mind in a chaotic manner, not leaving any empty space.
With this, the data—or perhaps imprint—of the Luck Goddess that was hidden within Spirit's consciousness was finally erased by the huge amount of data Chen Feng had flooded Spirit with. And thus, the Luck Goddess was officially dead.
"Very good." Chen Feng was extremely pleased. "Done," he told Spirit.
"Mhm…" She covered her pained expression and said, "Deleting repeating data."
Shua!
Out of the thousand copies, 999 were deleted. Instantly, a huge portion of Spirit's mind and consciousness were cleared, freeing her from the pain.
"Repeats?" Chen Feng had a bad premonition. "Hey, Spirit, delete everything."
Spirit pouted. "No way. Hmph, now, let me take a look at what you sent me earlier…"
Chen Feng tried stopping her. "No, don't look!"
"Huh?" Spirit's eyes went wide as she saw the special labels Chen Feng had sent her earlier. Mhm… Western, Japanese, Korean…??? What… Chen Feng had actually sent her this ?
Spirit was infuriated when she saw all this. "You…"
"Cough, cough." Chen Feng had an awkward expression. "I had no choice. I didn't expect a god's consciousness to be so powerful."
"Even so, why do these occupy half of all the data you have?" Spirit asked with her eyes wide open wide, glaring at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng coughed. "I'm a man. A hot-blooded male youth will always have numerous fantasies…"
Spirit snorted."Hmph."
In fact, Chen Feng hadn't just sent the videos he had actually seen. In order to truly erase the Luck Goddess, Chen Feng had also included the scenes he himself had imagined and dreamed up. Mhm… For example, back when he had seen the prettiest girl in his school, numerous fantasies had cropped up in his mind. He had acted as a director, producing numerous lovely scenes, from romance to "action," all played out in his mind alone. On top of that, there were numerous cuts from various point of views as well.
This was what he was most embarrassed about. Compared to these, his Western, Japanese, and Korean collections were nothing. Mhm… As Spirit explored the collection, she found numerous imagined scenes with Wang Yao… Huh? Why… was even Ming Yue in there??? Spirit found this unbelievable.
"Erm… that… was only there due to my adoration toward beauty," Chen Feng explained. "Yes, that's why."
"Hmph."
Spirit continued browsing, and next, she saw it: herself! From their first encounter, when she had been naked, until their final moments in the dark room. Mhm… Numerous scenes were available. Although Chen Feng had always maintained a dignified and calm expression during the training sessions in the dark room, the truth was that he was, after all, still a hot-blooded youth. As such, during that period, he had also self-directed numerous "scenes" in his mind.
Chen Feng: "…"
Spirit: "…"
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
Shua!
The world seemed to have sunk into silence. The mood had become extremely awkward.

Chapter 732: East-Coast Incident
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"You are truly…" By this point, Spirit was already thoroughly speechless. It seemed like she had still underestimated this little master of hers.
Good gracious, what exactly goes on within that head of his? Look at all these messy thoughts of his! How I longed… No, how embarrassing!
"Therefore, I suggest you delete all those," Chen Feng said with a sigh.
"Fine." Spirit rolled her eyes and deleted all the data. As for what she had already seen, she could do nothing about it, since they were already part of her memory now.
"Good." Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief. "As for you and the Misfortune Goddess…"
"Hold on!" Spirit was halfway through the deletion when she recalled something. "You wouldn't have… with the Misfortune Goddess as well…"
Chen Feng: "…"
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
"Erm." With a sigh, Chen Feng said, "I am not a stallion. Besides, I do not even know what she looks like."
"Oh." Spirit hesitantly accepted this explanation.
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
It was at this point that she vowed to never show Chen Feng her true appearance. The fantasies a human was capable of having were way too terrifying. It was said that not even gods could escape the wild fantasies of humanity.
"Let us first leave this place," Chen Feng said.
"All right."
Instantly, Chen Feng vanished where he stood. This place had just experienced a huge battle. Despite the leftover traces of godly aura lingering here, this place would most certainly become one of the favorite locations for adventurers in the near future, especially for those that had not yet awakened. The leftover traces from the battle here and the imprints and carvings left behind from the battle could very well be a source of inspiration for those people, enabling them to grow stronger.
Shua!
Chen Feng's body flickered as he moved speedily. After reaching a safe place, he started reviewing his present condition, placing emphasis on the two goddesses he now had by his side. At present, only three deities had awakened, and he had a monopoly on two of them.
Although Spirit had returned, due to the destruction of her physical body, Spirit had ultimately returned to Chen Feng's body, staying within the illusory world within him. As for the Misfortune Goddess, she was still staying within that pen, staying by Chen Feng's side.
Hum—
With a light wave, godly power rippled out. That was the godly power of luck.
Upon Spirit's return, she had given full authority to Chen Feng over the power of the Luck Goddess. In a sense, Spirit was the new Luck Goddess, even if she was now incredibly weak, similar to the Misfortune Goddess. However, she had given Chen Feng the highest authority over her power, allowing him access to the highest level of the godly power of luck. This was a completely different power than luck value. It was much stronger and much more wondrous.
Hum—
He waved his hand once again. This time, the godly power of misfortune rippled out.
"I can now use both luck and misfortune."
He was overjoyed. What were the limitations of the godly power of luck? Conversion to misfortune! To do this, the exhaustion rate would triple or even go up to ten times the original amount required. It almost wasn't worth it. Despite such a great exhaustion rate, the might wasn't necessarily excellent. There were certain unique circumstances that were even fundamentally unachievable by way of luck conversion, as proven by the Luck Goddess's defeat when she had been using the misfortune power she had obtained through conversion.
If her misfortune power had been stronger or she had been able to reduce her exhaustion rate… perhaps she would have been the final survivor of that encounter. As for the godly power of misfortune, the same applied when it was converted into luck. These were two completely overlapping yet different powers. As such, achieving the opposite effect would only work occasionally.
Yet now…
Chen Feng spread both his hands out. Next, a faint godly power started seething from both his hands. He had now obtained a power that nobody else, not even the gods, could obtain. In his left hand was luck, while in his right hand was misfortune. Mhm… He pondered it for a while before exchanging the positions, emanating misfortune from his left hand and luck from his right hand.
"Chen Feng!" Spirit's crisp voice sounded as she warned him, "Do not think of doing strange things with your right hand."
Chen Feng: "…"
What the hell? He rolled his eyes.
He felt like the huge amount of data he had overloaded Spirit with had polluted her mind. Every single time she looked at him now, there was an odd gleam in her eyes… This had to be karma. Chen Feng shrugged helplessly. Right at this moment, he suddenly heard a roar.
"Chen Feng! Chen, Chen, Chen, Chen, Chen, Chen… Feng… Feng!"
An intermittent roar could be heard.
Oh.
Chen Feng slapped his head as he recalled that this was the manual long distance communicator of the ancients, one that relied on the user howling.
"Yes, I'm here," he replied.
"Ao—Genetic Union… distress… We… East Coast… discovered huge dragon… chasing after a lizard… All buildings destroyed… Please take care of this."
"Enemy's strength is unknown. The 10 awakened ones we sent were all eliminated… The residents there displaced… Please deal with it as soon as possible…"
The message came intermittently. From the looks of it, this seemed to be a message sent by the deputy president. However, after listening to it, Chen Feng did not know whether to laugh or cry. Huge dragon? Lizard? It couldn't be those two, right?
Chen Feng sighed. He had initially believed that after killing the lizard, the dragon would go back to rest. Surprisingly, that lizard was actually so tenacious, able to keep fleeing all the way to the East Coast. Holy shit, they had crossed half the planet! How amazing!
His initial plan had not involved this dragon and this damnable lizard. As such, despite his mission being a success, two outside variables had come into existence. As such…
His head ached. "How should I deal with them?"
"Why not try contacting Duma?" Spirit proposed. "He specializes in dealing with such matters, right?"
In her mind, Duma was like an undertaker… No no, he was like a caretaker, handling all sorts of affairs, with emphasis on anything related to the Primordial Era.
"Let me try."
Chen Feng tried contacting Duma.
Duma's voice was as calm as ever, giving off a sense of reliability. "Yes?"
"I discovered something from the Primordial Era and am hoping that you can deal with it," Chen Feng said.
"Sure thing," Duma replied steadily. After all, he specialized in dealing with anything primordial. Since the descent of the primordial, he had in fact handled quite a number of things. "Time, venue, and species?" he asked briefly.
"The time is today, the venue is East Coast, as for the species…" Chen Feng paused before continuing, "Primordial dragon."
Shua!
Suddenly, no sound could be heard from the other side. After a long time, a grudge-filled voice sounded, "Primordial dragon? Excuse me, are you referring to the primordial dragons that, during the Primordial Era, were able to easily kill resonators and were no weaker than even some gods?"
"I... guess so?" Chen Feng replied cautiously.
"…Bye." Duma ended the call with no hesitation. What kind of joke was that? A primordial dragon? Up till now, all he had handled were those who had recently awakened. The strongest of them had been a mere level-one resonator. And now he was required to deal with a primordial dragon? A god slayer?
Chen Feng howled until his throat was sore. "Old Du? Old Du? Old turtle? Old bastard turtle?" Alas, no reply whatsoever came.

Chapter 733: Salvation and Damnation
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"That old man…" Chen Feng curled his lips and said to Spirit, "Look, I knew he wouldn't be willing to deal with this. After all, this is not as simple as cleaning up after someone's mess like he has been doing."
Just as he finished his words...
Shua!
Duma's voice sounded, "Chen Feng!"
Chen Feng was somewhat astonished. "Huh?"
Duma spoke calmly. "I truly can't help you with this. While both the primordial dragons and I are considered primordial races, the dragons innately counter all other primordial life-forms. If I truly go over, I will almost certainly be turned into some sort of tonic for the dragon."
"Mhm…" Chen Feng sank into silence. He gave it some thought and agreed that turtles could indeed be a rather nutritious food.
"In short, I am not able to help you with this. However, I can give you some advice on how to deal with this," Duma muttered.
"Please tell me," Chen Feng said solemnly.
"I sensed the rise of a god. Apart from the Luck Goddess, I think a different god has also reappeared. From the location and the scope of the aura, I reckon it is the Forest Goddess. If you can get her to help, perhaps that dragon can be dealt with," Duma said.
Chen Feng rejected this notion without any hesitation. "Not possible." What joke was this? After inserting the pen into her, now he had to go looking for help? Chen Feng was sure that he would die miserably if he did that. Moreover, he would probably get killed in an extremely creative manner. One ought to remember that this Forest Goddess had been fierce enough to be able to kill even the Luck Goddess. Him being the main culprit who had inserted something into her… Mhm… The mere thought caused Chen Feng to tremble in fear. Life was a beautiful thing. He still wished to continue living on.
"Fine." Duma found this understandable. After all, gods were not beings one could easily meet. "Well, you'll have to think of something else, then. Earlier, I asked the deputy president about this. Originally, there was a little town there on the East Coast. With the help of awakened ones, the residents there have already been relocated. Therefore, we can transform that place into a battlefield for the dragon to fight the lizard, so as to not cause any disturbances to the mainland.
"How goes the battle?" Chen Feng asked. He had no communicator. As such, he could not check himself.
"Rather intense." Duma spoke calmly. "Although the lizard is already seriously wounded and is in a rather sorry state, the lizard is still capable of holding on. After all, his lizard bloodline is one of the primordial races, the descendant of the primordial dragons that abandoned all other draconic abilities, leaving behind only the restorative ability of the dragons. Moreover, the lizards even developed further in this aspect. As such, their present restorative ability has already exceeded the dragons'. Therefore, the more of a beating it takes, the stronger it will get. Perhaps we can give the lizard some assistance. So long as he can survive the attacks of the dragon, he will grow stronger as the fight goes on. Ultimately, the dragon might be the one defeated instead. This is also a good opportunity for us."
"Mhm…" Chen Feng found this agreeable. Duma's reasoning was very acceptable. However, Chen Feng had an odd feeling. "Even with such great restorative ability, can a lizard even defeat a dragon?"
Duma explained, "Indeed, a regular lizard would not be able to do so. However, this particular lizard is rather unique. He has an extremely unique bloodline and absorbed way too many lizard-related genes during the Genetic Era, causing his primordial bloodline to undergo numerous transformations, making him sufficiently powerful to contend against a primordial dragon."
Chen Feng gained understanding. "I see."
"It's good that you understand," Duma said.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. "Understand my ass. Who do you think you are tricking?"
These words could be used to trick others. However, wasn't it somewhat excessive to use them on Chen Feng as well? The hell with the so-called primordial bloodline. How big was the gap between a dragon and a lizard? It was so big that the moment Long Yue saw the dragon, he had fled without any hesitation. Yet now Duma was trying to tell him that after going through numerous transformations, the lizard was now similar in strength to the dragon? Was this supposed to be a joke?
"I am telling the truth. It's just that Long Yue himself is not aware of this fact," Duma said with a sigh.
Chen Feng sneered. "How did you find out, then?"
For Duma to be clearer than Long Yue himself on Long Yue's strength? This was totally not believable.
Duma let out a bitter smile. "I know this because… I am the one who modified Long Yue."
"What?" Chen Feng's eyes went wide. Holy shit!
Chen Feng had an incredulous look. "You modified him?"
"Ah." With a sigh, Duma said, "The Primordial Era had already ended, and a friend of mine from the Primordial Era had died. Right before his death, he gave me the essence of his life force, something he had created after years of painstaking research, something capable of allowing the lizards to fight primordial dragons. He had entrusted me with looking for someone with a dragon bloodline to pass this on to for him. And so, on that fateful day when I was out and about, I stumbled upon Long Yue…"
"…"
Chen Feng was speechless. In short, after his battle with Long Yue back then, Duma had come? And next… he had transformed the dead Long Yue into the current Long Yue?
Chen Feng rubbed his head. "Fine. Even if it is as you say, that you gave Long Yue a sufficient amount of strength, how are you so sure that he will not come looking for either you or me for revenge?"
He recalled how Long Yue's relationship with both of them wasn't exactly harmonious.
"I left my own imprint within him." Duma was filled with confidence. "Back then, in order to hasten his absorption and recovery speed, he not only absorbed the inheritance of the lizard. He also absorbed my blood… As such, his life is well under my control."
Chen Feng nodded. "That's good, then." Since the plan had been decided, it was now time to act on it. They would assist Long Yue in killing that damnable primordial dragon. However, before Chen Feng could even arrive, he could already see numerous streaks of light shooting toward the East Coast.
Swish! Swish!
The auras emanating from these streaks proved the identities of these people. Each of them was a resonator.
Chen Feng frowned. "These people again." He pondered the matter before asking, "Duma, I have a question I have always wanted to ask. How many resonators existed during the Primordial Era?"
"Resonators? Let me think about it. During the Primordial Era, there were a lot of gods around. Each of the gods had a huge number of resonators. In total…" Duma started thinking deeply, trying to figure out what the total number was. At this point, Chen Feng had already sunk into silence. In short, there were so many resonators around that being a resonator was in fact nothing special?
"True."
"Although the resonators are powerful, they are nothing in face of the myriad species existing during the Primordial Era. With such a huge population, it wasn't odd for there to be a lot of resonators around as well, right?" Duma answered Chen Feng doubtfully.
"No, not odd." Chen Feng rubbed his head. True, he had nearly forgotten that during that era, any life-form could ascend… An example was Duma, an ascended turtle…
"There are a lot of resonators awake now. However, there are more of them still in slumber. With the awakening of the Forest Goddess and her godly aura reappearing in this world, I reckon a huge number of resonators will yet again awaken. The ones who are rushing over now are probably those who awakened recently, during the Forest Goddess's awakening. These fellows are impatient to regain their strength. As such, they will most definitely get involved in this battle, trying to gain some benefits for themselves," Duma said with a solemn expression.
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. "Is that so?" The plan that was supposed to proceed smoothly had descended into chaos thanks to these resonators. Despite that, a smile formed on Chen Feng's face. Chaos was exactly what he loved most.
Shua!
A faint godly power pulsed out of him as Chen Feng instantly vanished where he stood. Wherever he walked, a world of two halves was left behind. In one half, everything flourished, even the weeds growing up to five meters tall. In the other half, everything withered, transforming into a land of death.
Salvation and damnation, so sharply defined.

Chapter 734: Surprises Are Always So Pleasant
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Above a certain summit, an old man was gazing at the sky. After a long time, a sigh resounded.
A youngster around 13 or 14 years old walked out. "Old man, it is time for you to take a rest."
"I'm afraid a calamity is arriving," the old man muttered.
The youngster curled his lips. "Is it not here already?" With the descent of the primordial, this world was no longer as it had been. They had been staying here for so many years and had personally witnessed this event, a calamity-like event.
The old man shook his head, a trace of fear apparent in his eyes. "No, it is different. Even the descent of the primordial only brought the present era into a dark age. This time, what I felt was... true ruination!"
Is that so? The youth's expression became solemn as he heard this. He knew that this old man would not lie. He was also aware that this old man never feared anything. However, this time, he was able to see fear in this old man, and for the very first time, he heard this old man use that term: ruination. What exactly was coming?
Suddenly, the youngster laughed. "Things are getting more and more interesting, no?"
…
At the same time, on a certain planet far away, numerous squads had been assembled. Each of them was radiating an intense killing intent. The target of this group of people was the human world.
"We must kill the humans!"
"Yes, we must kill them!"
A certain old man with a pair of horns on his head was rousing the crowd. "Think back to that day. A lot of us were having a jolly good time at home when, suddenly, a comet appeared, almost blasting us to oblivion. If Lord God had not appeared, all of us would be dead now. From this, the ruthlessness of the humans is apparent. Therefore, we can only truly enjoy life after humanity is fully gone. We must eliminate humanity!"
The twin-horns members that heard this all surged with emotion. However, a certain individual instead frowned, as he kept getting a familiar feeling from the lines the old man was saying. Mhm... This old man was probably pirating the lines of others yet again.
"In short, this time, our goal is the human world," the old man declared.
"Yes!"
Everyone was surging with emotion. In truth, there was no need for such a declaration. That comet alone had already been sufficient to plant fear toward humanity in the hearts of the twin-horns race.
And subsequently, after figuring out the real strength of the human world from Chen Feng's leftover stuff, everyone had become excited. Humans, hehe… No different than lambs waiting for slaughter.
"Earlier, I tried divining the actual strength of humanity. If the humans were truly that strong, I would not have been able to obtain any results from my divination. Yet this time, through the gift bequeathed by Lord God, I saw the future of humanity, I saw them on the edge of destruction… Hehe, in the not-so-distant future, the humans will face a calamity capable of destroying their entire race. What could be the reason for that?" The old man started cackling wildly.
"Because of us! Because of the twin-horns race!" everyone howled.
"That's right! Let us lead the humans to their destruction! Let us transmit the will of our lord to every corner of that world. Let those damnable humans tremble in despair!" The old man howled with laughter.
"Teleporter?"
"Preparations completed."
"Coordinates orientation?"
"Done."
"Splendid." The high-spirited old man pointed at the teleportation portal that had appeared midair. "Well then, let us sally forth!"
Bang!
The numerous twin-horns members entered the portal.
Human world, here we come!
…
In the Genetic Union, Chen Feng was observing the battle on the East Coast. That primordial dragon was indeed powerful. With utmost ease, it was able to destroy numerous skyscrapers and buildings. As for Long Yue, he could do nothing but receive the beating. His entire body was drenched in blood, constantly hovering at the edge of death.
Chen Feng frowned. "He can't last any longer?"
The deputy president sighed. "This is the issue."
"Oh?" Chen Feng was doubtful.
The deputy president shrugged. "Long Yue has persisted in this manner for over three hours."
Chen Feng: "…"
Three hours? This guy sure was capable of taking a beating. However, after studying Long Yue's condition and making a rough assessment with his godly power of luck, Chen Feng concluded that this guy had truly reached his limit.
"Are those energy cannons still there on the East Coast?" Chen Feng asked.
The deputy president immediately replied, "Yes."
Chen Feng nodded. "Very good. Produce a super-huge gene reagent and shoot it into Long Yue's body."
"Oh…" The deputy president smiled bitterly. "Will we not suffer an attack if we do that?"
The only reason they had been able to peacefully watch this battle was because they had not interfered with it and had allowed those two to fight as they wished. The moment they interfered…
Chen Feng shook his head. "Don't worry. That dragon is an intelligent life-form, after all. It isn't that stupid. If we only attack Long Yue, the dragon will not attack us."
"Fine." The deputy president did as he had been told. Chen Feng got the people of the Gene Production Association and the Research Agency to work together and produce a super-huge penetrating bullet containing a huge amount of healing gene reagents.
"To ensure that the dragon won't find out what we are doing, we will not heal any of the lizard's external wounds. We only need to ensure the lizard's vitality remains at peak level. That will be sufficient," Chen Feng ordered. In truth, even though this sounded like a rather complicated gene reagent, it was in fact nothing but a stimulant. A stimulant produced with the technology of the Genetic Era would probably be able to ensure this lizard remain standing for a very long time. Naturally, to avoid the dragon's detection, Chen Feng had thought of an even better method.
On the East Coast, just as the battle was progressing, a loud sound suddenly resounded, attracting the attention of the dragon and lizard. In the next instant, an immense beam of light pierced through the lizard.
A miserable shriek resounded. "Ah—" Long Yue screamed miserably as the beam pierced through him, but shortly after, he found something odd. Whatever it was that had been shot at him had fused with his body and was healing him rapidly.
Long Yue was astonished. Those fellows were helping him? However, he was, after all, still a human. He was able to understand their intention here. Despite his seething hatred toward a certain individual, he had to accept this assistance. As for Chen Feng… Long Yue would think about it after this battle.
Bang!
After recovering, Long Yue charged forth once again.
The primordial dragon could feel a change in Long Yue. With doubt, the dragon looked over at the cannon. One should never look down on the intelligence of a primordial dragon. In a way, their intelligence was no lower than a human's.
Just as he was staring at the cannon, causing everyone to be nervous, numerous war drones rose suddenly, targeting Long Yue.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
A terrifying wave of attacks descended. Each of the attacks appeared incredibly powerful, leaving numerous scorched spots on Long Yue's body when they landed, giving him a rather desperate appearance.
The deputy president stared ahead. "It has started." They had attacked with energy weapons, and this was already the strongest attack they could pull off with their weaponry. In order to eliminate the dragon's doubt, they had no choice but to let Long Yue receive these attacks. Naturally, thanks to the gene reagent they had shot at Long Yue earlier, he was now resistant to energy attacks. However…
"I wonder if Long Yue will be willing to cooperate with us." The deputy president was extremely anxious.
"He will," Chen Feng said coldly. "If he wants to survive, he has no choice but to cooperate with us."
Just as he finished his words, a mournful scream resounded.
"Ao—"
Long Yue started screaming miserably. With this, the attention of the primordial dragon was shifted from his doubt toward the humans.
"Success!" Everyone was overjoyed.
The deputy president appeared rather gratified. "Long Yue is indeed cooperating."
Chen Feng was somewhat doubtful. "This scream is too real, right?" Could it be that this fellow was actually an extremely talented actor whose talent had remained undiscovered due to this era? His acting ability was truly incredible. Next, Chen Feng glanced over at the screen. Instantly, his heart chilled at what he saw. Those bastards. He had indeed told them to attack as they wished. However, was there a need to aim straight at the lizard's chrysanthemum?
A berserk howl thundered. "Howl!" Long Yue glared at the local Genetic Union branch with fury, his killing intent spilling out.
"Oh…"
Chen Feng gazed at the bleeding chrysanthemum. The plan had just started, yet they had already encountered a small mishap…

Chapter 735: The Change Is Better Than the Initial Plan
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Their plan was quite simple. Based on what Duma had said, his old friend had spent a lifetime researching healing and regenerative abilities. As such, the lizard bloodline he had left behind had an incredibly powerful fleshy body. So long as the potential of the body was unleashed, it would be sufficient to defeat even a dragon. Therefore, so long as Long Yue was transformed into a lizard and stayed transformed long enough for his body to adapt to the bloodline, all would be fine. This sounded so simple.
Alas, a mishap had still happened in this seemingly fool-proof plan.
"Ao—"
The furious Long Yue, with his bleeding chrysanthemum, leaped up, pounced on the stage, and destroyed the cannon there. Along the way, the entire building collapsed. Everyone sank into silence. This did not seem to be part of their plan?
Chen Feng sighed. "You guys have attacked too viciously." Those guys had fired the cannon straight at his chrysanthemum. How was that even a fake attack? That was definitely a fatal attack. In fact, Chen Feng wouldn't have been surprised even if Long Yue had been killed by that single attack. After all, he had yet to fully activate his lizard bloodline.
One of the staffers there pointed at the screen in a flustered manner. "Look."
Everyone looked over, and instantly, their expressions sank. On the screen, it could be seen that Long Yue had soared up and was charging toward the local Genetic Union branch. Evidently, he was planning to kill them now. The East Coast branch wasn't too far from the battlefield. If Long Yue's attack reached them…
Shua!
Everyone paled. With the cannon gone, they had no way of contending against Long Yue. However, surprisingly, it was at this instant that a huge figure appeared right before Long Yue arrived at the East Coast branch, blocking Long Yue's attack that was aimed toward the Genetic Union.
Mhm…
That was precisely the primordial dragon.
"Howl—"
The dragon seemed rather pleased with the Genetic Union's performance thus far. He glanced over in the direction of the Genetic Union, a praising look in his eyes, evidently rather interested in the Genetic Union's previous chrysanthemum-blasting attack.
"Piss off!" Long Yue shouted furiously.
After the fatal attack he had received, Long Yue was now consumed by anger. With the combination of his past hatred and the new grudge he had with them, he vowed to eliminate the Genetic Union. Whoever dared get in the way of his revenge, he would eliminate.
Bang! Bang!
At this moment, the gene reagent he had been injected with started working. A never-ending source of power was given to him. However, the primordial dragon did not care and stopped Long Yue's attacks without stop, smashing Long Yue onto the ground without stop. At this moment, the terrifying strength of the dragon was revealed.
The people of the Genetic Union were rather dumbstruck at this new development. This plot did not seem right. Their initial plan had been to help Long Yue fight the dragon. How had it changed to the dragon helping them against Long Yue?
"…" When Duma heard about this, the first person he doubted was Chen Feng. "Have you been using your godly power again?"
After all, he was clear on Chen Feng's identity.
"How is that possible?" Chen Feng was truly innocent here. Since the primordial dragon was so powerful, the moment he used the godly power of the weakened Misfortune Goddess or Luck Goddess against the dragon, he would definitely be discovered. As such, Chen Feng dared not use them on the dragon. Even if he used them, he would only use them on Long Yue. His initial plan had indeed been to help Long Yue a bit with luck after Long Yue's recovery. Unexpectedly, things had developed this way instead.
"Can you still control the lizard?" Chen Feng asked.
Duma smiled bitterly. "I don't know. I originally had rather great confidence in it, but due to the intense provocation the lizard has suffered, his emotions are very unstable now. I can't be sure if I can still control him or not. You guys… attacked too viciously."
Duma felt rather helpless.
Unstable?
Chen Feng glanced over at the lizard. The hatred emanating out of this fellow's eyes indeed seemed real. He had a deep hatred toward the Genetic Union, Chen Feng, Duma, and even the entirety of humanity. A person like this would be too difficult to control. Moreover, even if they were able to control him, after he fully awakened his lizard bloodline, would everything truly be fine? Not quite. Therefore, they might as well…
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed coldly, and he didn't hesitate. "Kill him! The primordial dragon is much intelligent than we imagined. Moreover, it has kindly reciprocated our attack toward Long Yue. This alone is sufficient. Rather, this Long Yue is the one incapable of separating friends and enemies… Since that's the case, let us change the plan: kill him first."
"How about the dragon?" Duma was anxious. It was way too dangerous to allow this fellow, who was in fact equivalent to a god, to roam around during the Genetic Era.
Chen Feng shook his head. "What is there to fear? So long as he leaves the East Coast, he can go roam about anywhere he wants. In any case, the times are changing. Let alone these primordial beasts, it won't be long before you can find gods everywhere as well. Can you even kill them all?"
Duma sank into silence. True. And thus, the Genetic Union's plan changed. The initial plan of assisting the lizard against the dragon had changed to assisting the dragon against the lizard.
Mhm…
Chen Feng believed that with sufficient sincerity, with the intelligence the dragon had exhibited previously, he would be much more cooperative than the lizard. Chen Feng had confidence in this.
Chen Feng stood up. "Let me help him." After all, Long Yue was not one to be killed off so easily. The dragon had been trying to kill him off for so long yet he still remained. Now that the Long Yue had absorbed the gene reagent, he could probably last even longer. This offered no benefit whatsoever to Chen Feng and the rest.
"Did you not say that the dragon will notice immediately if you use your godly power?" Duma warned. The only reason they had even planned all this was because they had been afraid of having their godly powers detected by the dragon.
Chen Feng shook his head. "That was in the past. To bait the fish, we naturally had to avoid the dragon's detection. However, now that we want to cooperate with him, we have to demonstrate a sufficient level of strength. I intend to show the dragon that us humans have access to godly powers as well!"
Bang!
Chen Feng stretched his hands out.
Hum—
From his left hand, faint misfortune power rippled out.
Hum—
From his right hand, faint luck power rippled out.
Chen Feng did not have much godly power left. He had been slowly recovering his godly powers. Therefore, Duma was shocked by his display of using both godly powers at the same time. "What are you planning to do? Don't you know that using luck and misfortune at the same time will cancel each other out?" Duma reminded Chen Feng.
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. "Do you think I'm that stupid? If I were to use both on the same target, they would indeed cancel each other out. However, what if I use them on different targets? Heh, the effect will be quite surprising, especially when I use both concurrently."
Shua!
He waved both his hands.
Hum—
His godly power waffled out. Without attempting to hide it, his luck power instantly enveloped the primordial dragon. The dragon that was in the midst of battle suddenly looked over at the Genetic Union. Clearly, he had detected this mysterious yet familiar power that caused a certain power within him to grow stronger. At the same time, he had also detected a rather sinister power enveloping the lizard.
Luck caused the dragon to become even more valiant while misfortune caused the lizard to become even more miserable. These were two completely different powers. On top of that, in this situation, the lizard's misfortune was in fact the dragon's luck, and the dragon's luck was similarly misfortune for the lizard. As such, when both powers were used concurrently, a unique amplification and cycling effect was reached.
Bang!
At this moment, the dragon erupted with a terrifying strength in an incredibly momentous manner.
Pu!
Instantly, the lizard, Long Yue, was blasted away.
Duma was alarmed. "This…" He had personally witnessed how Chen Feng had merely lazily and slowly waved both his hands, causing godly power to ripple out. Just like that, the entire battlefield had been transformed. This…

Chapter 736: Hard Selling
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Duma was somewhat dumbstruck. Godly power could be used in this manner as well? He should have a deeper understanding of godly power than most people. Luck and misfortune were supposed to be two opposing powers that couldn't possibly be used together. Yet now… he had witnessed himself how both were used together, resulting in an amplification effect. In fact, this amplification effect had increased the power by about five times, or maybe even more. This was quite a terrifying effect.
With this, the lizard, which had been the disadvantaged side to begin with, was even worse off. Initially, there had been a chance for him to truly recover the inheritance of the lizard bloodline he had within him. Unfortunately, with Chen Feng here, the lizard bloodline was rendered a nonfactor, effectively crippled.
What joke was this? Since the lizard had offended Chen Feng, it still wished to breakthrough? How naive. Soon after, the battle of the East Coast ended. The gigantic primordial dragon stepped on Long Yue's body until Long Yue was dead. Next, he gazed in the direction of Genetic Union, his gaze profound. Instantly, the people of the Genetic Union became nervous. Right at this instant, a young man stepped onto the battlefield, attracting much attention.
"Honorable lord dragon," he said earnestly, "your might is incredibly awe-inspiring. Is it possible for me to be your honor's disciple?"
"…" The primordial dragon's gaze landed on that young man's body. After a long time, the dragon shook his head and said, "You do not have the bloodline of a dragon within you and are thus incapable of enduring the power of my inheritance."
Everyone gasped in shock. Holy shit, this dragon was capable of speech?
"Hehe." Duma sneered in response to their shock, causing them to sink into silence as they recalled that even this turtle here could talk, let alone a primordial dragon…
Chen Feng coughed, as he himself had forgotten that all primordial life-forms possessed intelligence. However, since this dragon was capable of speech, he would be much better to deal with than a random wild beast.
The young man continued gazing at the dragon earnestly. "May we have the honor of having you as a guardian god of humanity? The primordial has descended, and as normal life-forms, humanity does not have the formidable strength that your like has. Therefore, we wish to obtain your protection."
The dragon shook his head. He stood up, his terrifying prowess clearly displayed, and gazed at the young man with a pensive look. "I am not a god, nor do you guys need me. You humans… already have your own guardian god."
The young man blanked. "We…do?"
"Stay smart." The dragon nodded his head and stood up with a deafening sound before leaving with a flash.
"Le... left?"
The people of the Genetic Union were all overjoyed.
That incredibly strong primordial dragon that had been the source of their anxiety had left just like that? This seemed completely different than they had imagined.
"Success."
Chen Feng exchanged glances with the deputy president and heaved a sigh of relief. As for that earnest-looking young man, he returned with a disappointed look on his face. The moment he entered the Genetic Union, though, he limped immediately, nearly collapsing to the ground. "Holy shit, that scared me to death."
Chen Feng rolled his eyes.
"Chen Feng, for you to send me out to try to be his disciple, were you not worried that he would kill me instead?" Xu Fei grumbled. That's right, the reason he had even dared go out was because Chen Feng had requested it.
Chen Feng was all smiles. "He wouldn't have. Since the dragon is capable of speech and is intelligent, he is a being capable of social exchanges. With you raining praise upon him, he would definitely not attack you… Especially after he felt the existence of two different godly powers here.
Xu Fei scratched his head. "Godly powers?"
Chen Feng spoke calmly. "Of course. Otherwise, do you think I would have dared let you go out there? The primordial dragon awoke ahead of schedule thanks to the Luck Goddess. In a way, he owes her one. Therefore, upon sensing the godly power of luck, he definitely would not have killed you."
After all, Spirit was now the official Luck Goddess. Since Chen Feng had dared send Xu Fei over, he had obviously been confident, at least to a certain degree.
"What if the dragon had agreed to the request?" Xu Fei asked blankly.
Chen Feng curled his lips. "That would have been even better. Do you really think that one can meet a primordial dragon so easily? If the Luck Goddess hadn't used her full power to awaken one of them, you would never have had a chance to see one. The primordial dragons are as powerful as gods. If he had been willing to accept you as a disciple, in this new era, I reckon you could do whatever you wish."
"That's true," Xu Fei stated regretfully. "It is unfortunate that the dragon didn't agree to the request."
"That is only natural." Chen Feng understood that. After all, these primordial races all cared deeply about bloodlines.
"Why don't… you go get some dragon bloodline?" Chen Feng said after some thought.
Xu Fei was alarmed. "One can get a bloodline so easily? Mhm…"
Xu Fei pondered for a short while and continued, "I don't really mind, but I don't think my mom would agree to it."
Chen Feng was stupefied. "What are you thinking about? I actually meant having Kong Bai bring you back in time…"
Xu Fei finally understood. "Oh. So that is what you were talking about." Subsequently, he shook his head. "Forget it. Nowadays, a lot of resonators have awakened, and they're all paying close attention to everything related to the primordial as well as their memories pertaining to the Primordial Era. In fact, I looked for Kong Bai some time ago. He said that now, the moment any of us enter the Primordial Era and appear in the memories of those people, we will most probably get hunted down. Those people are not idiots. As such, they will not give Kong Bai a chance to gain power from the Primordial Era."
Xu Fei felt extremely regretful.
"True." Chen Feng shrugged. If so, he had no other ideas.
In the past, the resonators had all been asleep. As such, visiting the Primordial Era had still been possible. So long as they were careful to not stumble upon any taboos, there were no problems. Now that the gods had started to awaken and resonators were everywhere, the moment they dared return in time, they would probably get instantly killed. Xu Fei majored in fleshly body cultivation. In fact, the dragon bloodline suited him greatly. Unfortunately, he had not encountered a fortuitous encounter that enabled him to advance any deeper on this path. After understanding this, Duma walked over noiselessly.
"Hey, bro." Duma dragged Xu Fei to a corner quietly. "I have a lizard bloodline inheritance here. Are you interested in learning more?"
Xu Fei rejected him without hesitation. "Scram!" Holy shit. Look at that corpse lying on the East Coast. Was that not an inheritor of the lizard bloodline as well? Who was this Duma trying to scam here? He had no intention of being the next enemy of the dragons.
Duma tried to explain. "In truth, the lizard bloodline is extremely powerful… Long Yue only died because he had not fully activated the bloodline inheritance. I can personally make some minute adjustments for your version of the inheritance to make it suit you perfectly."
Xu Fei sneered. "Scram!"
Duma patiently explained, "I am telling the truth. Look, don't you feel like we both are connected by destiny?"
Xu Fei curled his lip. "Scram!" What a scammer. He was clear on Duma's true identity. Duma was an ascended turtle and a resonator. In the past, his identity as a resonator had indeed been awe-inspiring enough. But now, with resonators everywhere, Xu Fei truly couldn't bring himself to revere a single resonator, especially this fellow here who had given up on his dignity as an expert and had taken the initiative to stick to him just to hard sell the lizard bloodline…
This guy…
By the side, Chen Feng did not know whether to laugh or cry. Even earlier, when the dragon had fought the lizard, Duma had not dared to come over. Yet now he had arrived so promptly.
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. Hold on… Would Duma truly be so bored as to take a trip here just for the sake of Xu Fei? Evidently, that was quite unlikely. If so, why had he come?
Duma sighed. "I am here to take back the lizard bloodline from Long Yue's corpse and to look for a new inheritor."
"Are you sure?" Chen Feng found that doubtful.
"Yes," Duma said calmly.
"Is that so…" Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. He looked at Duma's calm expression, then glanced over at Xu Fei. Suddenly, he recalled something. The first time Xu Fei's physical body had transformed, it had been on the seafloor… due to a turtle?
Chen Feng finally remembered. The only reason Xu Fei had even entered the path of fleshly body cultivation was because he had encountered that damnable turtle at the bottom of the sea in the past and had subsequently absorbed all its blood essence. From that moment onward, Xu Fei's body had become special. As for that turtle… it was precisely the little turtle spirit, or to be more precise, the holy spirit!
Chen Feng was all smiles as he regarded Duma. "I have a question. Where is the holy spirit?"
Shua!
Duma's expression changed.

Chapter 737: Holy Spirit's Identity
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Let me guess. I recall that the Holy Spirit has a unique undying physique. That is why you always use numerous methods to eat him and then resurrect him. At first, everyone merely watched on, as this was mildly entertaining. But now that I look at it, the only reason you ate the Holy Spirit is the unique energy within his body, right? The Primordial Era was an era where survival is exceedingly hard. I do not believe that a race without a guardian could have survived. Therefore, apart from the duma, your race should have a guardian as well.
"I once believed that it might be some god. But now I suppose that the guardian is the holy spirit? During the Primordial Era, he was the one who guarded you all. He wouldn't get involved in normal battles, only in battles involving gods. This lasted until the fall of the Primordial Era. At that time, all the godly powers were sealed away, and the holy spirit lost his power as well. As such, the present little turtle, the little guy you eat every single day…" Chen Feng took in a deep breath before concluding, "He is a god, or to be more precise, he is a slumbering god."
Bang!
Everyone's heart jolted. Holy shit. A god? That foolish-looking turtle? That little guy that lazed about and did nothing apart from eating and waiting for death was actually a god? The deputy president was stupefied. Xu Fei was stupefied. Only Duma had a different expression, an unsightly expression on his face.
Chen Feng continued on calmly. "You eat him every single day not because you enjoy eating those from your species. Rather, you are trying to absorb the godly power hidden within the holy spirit. This time, you are here for Xu Fei, as you sensed a unique power belonging to a god within his body."
Xu Fei's eyes went wide. "Huh?"
"The power you failed to obtain after eating the holy spirit for so many years, at an unknown time, partially fused with Xu Fei. That is why he obtained the fleshly body he currently has, a body that allows him to ignore all energy," Chen Feng concluded. As for Duma, he sank into silence.
"Holy shit." Xu Fei was so agitated that he started trembling. So it turns out that I actually fused with the power of a turtle god? Holy shit, that is crazy amazing! No wonder Jasmine from Saloon City told me that I am getting more and more "powerful." This "battle prowess" is worthy of a god, after all, and the turtle god turns out to be super nutritious as well.
"As such, you intend to study Xu Fei," Chen Feng said. "You want to see clearly how Xu Fei managed to fuse with that power. Then, you'll try to use the same method to fully absorb the power of the holy spirit for yourself."
Hold on. Shortly afterward, Xu Fei had a bad premonition as he looked at Duma with murderous eyes. "You were not thinking of eating me as well, right?"
As a response, Duma rolled his eyes.
"I don't eat humans," he grumbled. The previously solemn atmosphere had been totally transformed by Xu Fei's rather amusing reaction.
"Just as Chen Feng said, I only wanted to study you a bit." Duma sighed. "I indeed considered killing Xu Fei if I failed to obtain any clues from him. But after consideration… I can't bear to do it." Duma smiled bitterly. For Xu Fei to be able to absorb the godly power of the turtle spirit, he was, in a way, the only successor of the turtle spirit. Therefore, Duma ultimately found this solution unbearable. After all, he was not a merciless turtle.
Xu Fei's eyes went wide. Holy shit, so this old man had truly considered that!
Duma sneered. "Is it not normal to have such thought cross your mind? To be fair, when you were young, didn't you fantasize about a lot of girls as well? Did the police arrested you for that?"
Xu Fei coughed awkwardly.
Chen Feng: "…"
"I am curious." Duma rubbed his head. "Why would the turtle spirit select you? After the descent of the primordial, the turtle spirit transformed into his present state and completely forgot about his true identity. As such, it couldn't have consciously chosen you. Therefore… this should be something that was destined to happen. But why?"
Duma was filled with doubt. Why would a regular human like Xu Fei be related to a turtle by destiny?
"Perhaps because I am normally a rather shameless person?" Xu Fei said after some serious contemplation. He could clearly remember how a lot of girls always call him a cuckolded bastard. [1] 1
Duma sneered. "Hehe. Would you believe me if I said I will kill you right here?"
Chen Feng rolled his eyes at Xu Fei's conclusion.
After briefly contemplating the matter, Chen Feng said, "Since that's the case, take him with you. Study him thoroughly. If you can figure out the source of the godly power, feel free to absorb it. If all else fails, just let this guy inherit the turtle spirit."
Duma sighed. "You trust me so much?"
Chen Feng shrugged. "We have experienced so much together. If I can't even trust you, who can I trust?"
Duma expressed his gratitude. "Many thanks."
Xu Fei was stupefied as he listened. "Hey? Have you guys not considered asking me, the person involved?"
Chen Feng waved his hand. "Bye."
Shua!
Duma dragged Xu Fei along and vanished. In the air, Xu Fei's bloodcurdling scream lingered. "Chen Feng, you can't do this to me. Arrrghhh… I don't want to be a turtle!!!!"
This guy… Chen Feng rubbed his head. Sure enough, with the descent of the primordial, everyone had their own destiny. Ultimately, this was no longer the same world.
"Drag the lizard corpse in," Chen Feng commanded. "Even if the bloodline power has been extracted by Duma, the other remains of the lizard are still worth researching. With the descent of the primordial, we humans cannot fall behind."
"Understood."
A group of people went out and carried the corpse in.
Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief. "Finally, this incident has ended." This could be considered a perfect ending to the dragon incident. Humanity was still too weak and was still incapable of contending against such primordial life-forms. However, this time, they'd had Long Yue here to serve as their cannon fodder. What about the next time something similar happened?
Since the primordial dragon had appeared, it wouldn't take long for other primordial life-forms to appear as well. In this land that had enjoyed relative peace for so long, numerous bizarre life-forms would start appearing. Naturally, a huge portion of them would appear in the unknown regions, which had few humans. In this new era, what should humanity do? Chen Feng was extremely worried.
Bang!
Rumble!
After rumbling thunder, the sky suddenly darkened. Chen Feng frowned and gazed at the sky. This did not seem like something caused by the natural weather. Just as he was filled with curiosity, raindrops started pattering down from the sky.
"It is raining."
Chen Feng stretched his hand out, feeling the drizzle on his hand. Suddenly, his heart trembled. From this ordinary-looking rain, he sensed something familiar: godly power. Yet another god had awakened.
"Which god is it this time?" Chen Feng looked at the sky. Rain God? Water God?
"No idea." Spirit's wide eyes gleamed as she looked around. She was evidently clueless as well. As for the Misfortune Goddess, most of the time, she ignored Chen Feng. For instance, the problem with Chen Feng and communicators had yet to be solved. He wanted to use one, but the only way he could make it work was to constantly use luck power to counteract misfortune power. After giving it some thought, he had given up on this and decided to continue using the screaming ability he had obtained from the ancients.
Spirit gave it some thought and solemnly said, "Regardless of which god this is, with the fall of this rain containing godly power, I'm afraid the other slumbering gods will be triggered as well. If nothing unexpected happens, after the end of this rain, those gods will come out as well."
Chen Feng inhaled deeply. "Finally… this moment has arrived?" Everything he had done thus far had been in order to gain more time for humanity. Alas, the heavens did not seem to be willing to grant his wish. With a single rainstorm… all his plans had been for naught.
"Why not use misfortune power to try to slow it down?" Chen Feng considered.
"…"
The Misfortune Goddess couldn't even be bothered to answer him. With mere misfortune power, he wanted to suppress all the gods? Was he an idiot? Since this could not work, Chen Feng was completely at a loss. He was extremely anxious, and right at this instant, an odd piece of news was received from the Genetic Union's Scout Department. At the planet's core, some life-forms had been detected yet again.
"Core?"
Chen Feng became ashen faced. Those idiots had come again? Hold on…
Suddenly, Chen Feng thought of something. "Erm… May I ask… Among you gods, which is the most amazing? The Creation God? The Destruction God? The Death God? Pangu? Hong Jun? Can you name one that is incredibly powerful yet is dead for real and can no longer be resurrected?"

Chapter 738: What Is This Guy Thinking This Time?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Spirit was instantly on alert. "What are you thinking of doing?"
Chen Feng appeared undisturbed. "Just trying to learn more."
Spirit looked at him with deep suspicion. She hesitated shortly before cautiously saying, "A god at that level is not one you can easily joke about, especially insult…"
"Do I look like someone who would do that?" Chen Feng asked, his eyes wide open in a glare.
"No, you don't." Spirit cautiously continued, "However, even if that lord has perished, the entirety of this world is a product of his creation. If you dare mess around using that lord's name, you will invite the wrath of the heavens themselves."
"Oh, then forget it," Chen Feng said with a shrug.
Spirit: "…"
The Misfortune Goddess: "…"
He had given up just like that? In short, he was thinking up some despicable plan again, right? If he hadn't been advised against doing so by Spirit, he would probably start creating trouble again. He had truly caused these two goddesses to be speechless.
After some thought, Chen Feng said, "Well then, do you have a similarly awe-inspiring god that also perished but who is at a somewhat lower level? So long as the god is unrelated to heaven and earth, it will do."
"The Sin God. His name was Ye," Spirit said without hesitation.
"Ye?" Chen Feng had a slight impression of this name. When the primordial had initially descended, he had obtained some general knowledge from Duma. As such, he indeed knew of some rather popular gods. This Sin God was one of them, as he had truly been too famous.
It was rumored that back then, he had enticed all the gods into committing sins in order to increase his godly power. Naturally, the consequences of that did not need to be mentioned. After being chased about for a while, he had been erased for real. However, his strength wasn't something anyone could doubt. For him to have dared to provoke all the gods by himself, his prowess was apparent. This was a god who had once been a legend even among the various gods, even though he had ultimately died.
"Excellent." Chen Feng was extremely pleased to hear this. So it turned out that the level of this Sin God was so high among the gods. That would make things easier for him.
"What are you planning to do?" Spirit asked in a soft voice. "It won't do for you to pretend to be the Sin God. You will be inviting trouble upon yourself."
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. "Why would I even want to pretend to be him?" Pretending to be a god like this that was no different than being the leader of all evil. Doing that would be no different than committing suicide. Chen Feng had merely thought of a good idea to gain more time for humanity.
"Just wait and see." Chen Feng's hand pulsed with faint godly power, which proceeded to fuse with the raindrops. "Things are getting more and more interesting."
…
Bang!
The earth trembled. A group of black-clothed people ferociously charged out from underground. Each of them was extremely powerful and appeared incredibly formidable. However, just as they arrived aboveground, they encountered a group of soldiers that directly and viciously charged at them.
The leader waved his hand coldly. "Kill!"
Pu! Pu!
The black-clothed group flashed about, and instantly, the entire squadron of soldiers was cleanly killed.
"Hehe. A class? Indeed." That person howled with laughter. " Hahaha, so this is the real strength of the human world? We were indeed tricked by that damnable Chen Feng."
After finishing his words, he pulled his black gown out and revealed his true appearance: a twin-horns member.
"Humans... we have arrived!" the twin-horns elder said loftily. This time, even the weakest in their group was an awakened. Humans? Heh, the strongest human was merely Chen Feng. From the soldiers earlier, they had found some documents of that Genetic Union. If they recalled correctly, that Chen Feng seemed to be one of the higher-ups of this so-called strongest organization? This world was indeed as weak as they had expected. The reason that they of the twin-horns race had arrived was to conquer.
"Do we need to shut the teleportation portal?" someone asked.
The elder sneered. "There is no need. Leave behind 10 awakened ones to guard the door to allow the grand army of the twin-horns race to enter without stop. This world will be dominated by us."
"Yes!"
Everyone's blood boiled. Had the time finally arrived for the twin-horns race to grow?
The elder waved his hand. "Set off!"
Bang!
The army set off. Along the way, they encountered a huge number of human soldiers. Although the numbers were high, all of them were A class. The human soldiers could not take more than a single attack from them.
Pu! Pu!
They killed their way through. The group of several hundred twin-horns members had suffered zero casualties thus far.
"The humans are too weak," the elder said in disdain. This was indeed a world where the inhabitants were restricted to below the awakened realm. Even Chen Feng had only been able to enter the awakened realm after entering their world by accident. That was what had led to their misconception about the true strength of this world.
The elder analyzed their future course of actions. "We can first conquer this world while continuing to maintain our minor world. When the time comes to break through, we can go back for that."
As the others heard this, they approved. As far as they were concerned, the human world was just a fertile land gifted to them by the heavens.
"It's a pity that this rain is quite annoying." The general looked at the rain, clearly somewhat twitchy about it. The rain was obviously slowing down their speed and reducing their vision.
The elder smiled calmly. "It doesn't matter. If this is the hardship we have to endure to conquer this world, I do not mind."
"Haha."
The rest of them chuckled in agreement. True, was there any easier way one could conquer a world?
"Let's go."
The army advanced once again, their goal being the conquest of this entire world. Meanwhile, near the teleportation portal, a black shadow flashed past and instantly went through the portal undetected.
He smiled. "Level-one awakened?"
Shua!
Instantly, his figure vanished. The twin-horns members guarding the portal frowned but could not detect anything.
…
Earlier, above the core entrance where the twin-horns army appeared, a blonde with spiky hair was floating in the air with Sakata Chuunibyou by his side. Both of them were gazing coldly at the army appearing below.
Shua! Shua!
Sakata Chuunibyou's hand pulsed with a faint godly power. It turned out that earlier, with the land below as the foundation, a huge labyrinth had been created. As for the human army down there that the twin-horns race encountered…
"Akihito," Sakata Chuunibyou called out coldly.
"Here, here." Akihito pointed impatiently at the labyrinth. Next, a gust of godly power surged out and formed numerous clones—tens of millions—that were subsequently stationed everywhere within the labyrinth.
"This ability of yours…"
This was not the first time Sakata Chuunibyou had seen this ability, but he was as shaken as ever. Apart from this Akihito, nobody else could reach this level in the art of cloning with godly power. He had easily created ten million clones, and the clones were male and female, young and old. By himself, he could be an army, an entire race, a village, or even a city. Even now, the twin-horns members had yet to realize the predicament they were in.
"When will this be over?" Akihito asked impatiently.
Sakata Chuunibyou shook his head. "I don't know. Chen Feng merely ordered us to come here and play around with these idiots. I don't know what he intends to do. He only mentioned that we will know when the time comes."
Akihito frowned at this response.
"What, you don't have enough godly power to last longer?" Sakata Chuunibyou was somewhat flabbergasted. That should not be the case, right? With their strength as resonators, it shouldn't be too exhausting to play around with these idiots.
Akihito inhaled deeply. "No, that's not the case… However, to avoid detection, regardless of whether its a village, a town, soldiers, gender, or age, I need to keep creating different clones."
"Mhm?"
Sakata Chuunibyou was still somewhat doubtful. That should not increase his exhaustion rate, right?
Akihito clenched his teeth. "Furthermore… These bastards of the twin-horns race… insist on raping all the females they come across."
Sakata Chuunibyou's eyes went wide. "Holy shit, it can't be that…"
Akihito clenched his teeth. "That's right. Even at the minimum, I feel 10% of what my clones feel."
Sakata Chuunibyou gasped in shock.
Ten percent… This seemed like a rather low level of realism, but when it was amplified by ten million clones…
"Wow!" Sakata Chuunibyou was suddenly filled with a sense of veneration for Akihito. "I will try to request a reduced number of females. However, there still need to be some. Otherwise, they will start getting suspicious."
"Many thanks." Akihito clenched his fists tightly, his body twitching occasionally.
"Everyone here is so talented," Sakata Chuunibyou lamented. Next, his gaze landed on the idiots below who believed that they were conquering this world, filled with curiosity toward the reason Chen Feng was keeping these idiots contained here…

Chapter 739: Millions upon Millions of Lives, Nothing but Bugs
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
The rain continued falling for quite a while. Infused with godly power, the raindrops soaked the earth, causing an uncountable number of gods to start slowly waking up. Every single day, powerful fluctuations could be felt from different corners of the world. These were the fluctuations caused by both gods and resonators awakening.
Pressure unique to gods surged out without stop, causing the entire land to be subjected to a type of divine pressure. The darkest of the Primordial Era had finally fully descended, where resonators were everywhere and gods stood tall in every corner of the world. Millions upon millions of other life-forms were nothing but bugs.
"The gods have finally descended."
At the summit of the ancient territory, Duma watched on silently. The humans would probably be in danger now. As for the reason? They were too weak, yet they occupied the largest portion of this world. Without a doubt, the moment the gods awakened, their attention would be on the humans.
On top of that, there was a matter of faith. The act of worship and resonating toward a god served as an important foundation for the gods. Therefore, these newly awakened gods would probably have a rather intense struggle for believers among humanity. In such a situation, nobody could guarantee the safety of the human race.
Duma would not be able to do so, nor could Chen Feng. Nevertheless, the complete annihilation of humanity was impossible. After all, they were the largest group of intelligent life-forms in this era. Even if the humans were reduced to slaves, the gods would definitely not allow them to go extinct. Despite that, humanity would not be able to avoid a calamity. Experts would die. Weaklings would die miserably. The only thing they could do was pray for the mercy of the Luck Goddess, hoping that nothing untoward would happen to them. Alas, even the Luck Goddess would not be able to protect them.
"Argghhhh—"
Numerous bloodcurdling shouts could be heard. Within a pot of scalding green liquid, Xu Fei could be seen screaming. "Duma, you old bastard. You are indeed thinking of eating me. Damn it, just you wait until I leave this place. I will cut your turtle head down and eat it as a stew."
Duma's face darkened. "Shut up." This bastard… Duma was helping Xu Fei increase his godly power, yet this was what he received? The human world… Forget it. Duma had ultimately decided to not tell Xu Fei about what was happening, since it would be pointless. If Xu Fei was told, he would probably be in a rush to leave this place. However, the only thing that would accomplish was giving his life away, and he would be of totally no help. As such, the only thing they could do now was wait, wait until Xu Fei fused with the godly power, until the moment he inherited the consciousness of the Turtle Spirit.
Sorry, Duma said inwardly.
"Increase the temperature," Duma barked.
"Here, here."
The little turtle bounced over and increased the temperature. With great joy, the little turtle watched on as Xu Fei was cooked. Tsk tsk, finally, this bastard Duma has changed his tastes.
Yet another bloodcurdling scream sounded out. "Ah—"
…
Above the starry sky, an immense throne was faintly discernible.
The man seated on the throne was still playing with the ring on his finger. His gaze swirled around, and once again, numerous battleships exploded just like fireworks. Done with that, his gaze landed on the planet before him. Godly powers were swirling about without stop as gods awakened one after another. Numerous formidable auras surged out. This initially ordinary-looking planet was finally no longer ordinary.
The man watched on expressionlessly. After a long time, a tinge of disdain appeared in his eyes. Just like that, he watched on as this planet transformed, becoming unprecedentedly powerful. After a long time, his figure vanished once again. As for the huge throne, it slowly vanished amid space. Everything seemed the same as ever.
…
On a certain summit, a youth was smiling happily. "Old man, is this your so-called calamity?" With the rain, the awakening of all the gods had sped up, causing the gods that were supposed to slowly appear to all appear together. Suddenly, the entire world was in chaos. Mhm… The scene where all the gods were jumbled together like some dumpling… Tsk tsk.
The old man blanked. "I don't know." The future that had previously been readable had suddenly changed. The only thing he knew was that this land would encounter a huge calamity. But what exactly was the calamity? He had no answer to that. How could they deal with the calamity? He had no answer to that either.
"Pft." The youth curled his lips. "If even this is not considered a disaster, what else can? Wu—" He stretched lazily. "In any case, this is unrelated to us. Humans… Hehe."
…
Within a certain high-rise building, a youth pulsing with faint godly power was sitting cross-legged. Interestingly, as the godly power pulsed, odd items flickered around him. Video games, computers, communicators, dolls… a certain odd-looking pink toy… and a pair of blue and white striped underwear still tinged with a certain smell…
…
"Is this what you all require?" the youth asked with a sigh. Kids nowadays sure had weird tastes.
"Go."
He waved his hand. Next, those items pierced through the void, directly arriving beside the pillow of a certain someone.
He could clearly feel that after doing this, his godly power had increased yet again. As for whether his gifts would bring that kid happiness or cause that kid to suffer a beating from his parents after waking up in the morning, it wasn't something this person was bothered with.
The youth smiled proudly. "After all, a price has to be paid for desires to be fulfilled." However, when his gaze landed on the rain outside, he sank into silence yet again.
"This situation… will bring Master worry, right?"
He was somewhat anxious. Since an unknown point in time, his master had transformed into humanity's only hope. By himself, he shouldered the responsibility of guarding the entire human race. Each step he took was so very arduous.
He inhaled deeply. "The primordial has descended… so what if you all are gods?"
"My current strength is still far from sufficient. However, it won't be long before I become even stronger. Before you all have fully awakened, before you all have fully recovered… I will surpass you all! Then I can assist master and defeat you all!"
The youth raised his fist, filled with battle intent. Although the gods had awakened, they were still rather weak. After slumbering within nothingness for so many years, what strength they'd had should have already vanished. As such, they had no choice but to rebuild their strength. This would be a chance for humanity.
Shua!
The youth took in a deep breath, then continued sitting cross-legged. His entire body turned translucent and appeared within the dreams of countless people, asking people what their desires were. World peace? Yes, I can help you. Hi, this engineer here, what is your desire? What? A girlfriend? Sorry, I truly can't help with that…
…
In the first place, his strength originated from others, regardless of dream or reality. Ever since he had gotten lucky and accidentally fused with a certain god, his ability had combined with godly power. This had started him on a unique path in his pursuit of strength. He would most certainly become stronger.
Under the dark night, this youth's face was filled with battle intent.
Bang! Bang!
The sky seemed so hazy, and the rain seemed to have become even heavier. Countless people gazed at the sky. From this tempo, it seemed like the rain was nearing its end. All of them knew that when this rain ended, this world would have completely transformed. Without the godly power enveloping the entire world, all the awakened gods would start appearing and fighting for their respective believers. The world would descend into chaos. However, just as the rain became heavier and neared its end, a terrifying piece of heavyweight news surfaced, seemingly related to the Sin God.

Chapter 740: The Terrifying Secret
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
What was discovered was a certain slab. This slab looked completely ordinary. It was the words on the slab that were unsettling. These words seemed to have gone through countless ages, yet they were still as clear as ever.
--
Year 20 after the fall of the primordial, a hazy day.
Where is the Sin God slumbering? Where are the other gods slumbering? Why has no one discovered the existence of the Sin God? This is unbelievable.
--
Some gods were horrified at this news.
"This…"
"Isn't the Sin God dead? How is it possible for him to be slumbering?"
"This is fake news, right?"
"Where was this slab found?"
"From a mountain near where I awakened. I sensed the ancientness within and took the slab out to get a clearer look. Surprisingly, this is what I uncovered…"
"Is it possible that this is fake?"
"Not possible. I have already inspected it. This thing has indeed survived since the fall of the primordial. Moreover, such slabs only existed during the Primordial Era."
"…In short, what is written here is true?"
"No idea."
The anxious gods flipped the slab around, trying to look for some clues. The contents were truly too astonishing. If the Sin God was truly still alive, as far as all the other gods were concerned, this was no different than a nightmare.
Back then, the Sin God had attempted to conquer the entire world. In the end, he had been killed by the Creation God. Subsequently, the Creation God had been extremely dissatisfied with the fact that the world he had created had fallen under influence of other gods and had ultimately fused with the world itself.
He had erased all traces of his existence and become one with the world. From that moment onward, this world had started operating by itself, thoroughly upgraded. During that war, both the Sin God and the Creation God had vanished. As for the other gods, they had gained true freedom and had started going independent, each proclaiming ownership over their respective domains. This was also what had caused the subsequent age of chaos.
Unexpectedly, the Sin God was actually still alive. This god had been capable of contending against the Creation God. It did not matter if he had only been able to do it through exploiting this world, nor did it matter that he had ultimately suffered defeat. The fact still stood that he had been capable of contending against everyone.
"This world has already been perfected by the Creation God. As such, the Sin God will not be able to exploit this world."
"But his strength…"
All the gods sank into silence. The Sin God was truly way too powerful.
Even back then, he had only been defeated after all the gods had worked together, with even the Creation God getting involved. If he was to return once again and he sought revenge, who could stop him?
"I do not trust this slab."
"Same here."
A lot of people refused to believe the contents of the slab. After all, apart from gods, all other existences were nothing but bugs. And with the trifling strength of those bugs, how could they have uncovered true clues leading to the Sin God? This was probably the creative imagination of some bug.
"That is quite possible."
"Forget about this for now, then."
"Hey, this still pertains to the Sin God… We should at least investigate it, right?"
Some gods exchanged glances. Everyone studied this slab without stop, and finally, someone discovered a vague symbol in the corner of the slab. This symbol was, in fact, part of an ancient numbering system used during the Primordial Era.
"It is numbered…"
"There are more of these?"
"Try searching."
"Try asking other gods as well."
"All right."
They started contacting other gods to ask about the slab. However, this questioning session caused all the gods to be thoroughly horrified. They found that, in fact, quite a number of gods had such slabs. The reason was that these slabs were truly too conspicuous. With the faint godly power pulsing off them, these slabs were easily discoverable by the gods. They also found that each of these slabs was labeled with a number. When all the slabs were gathered, a terrifying content was revealed.

Late night, hazy day.
Today marks the first year of the fall of the primordial. Since the fall of the gods, this land has been much more peaceful. However, I discovered the true secret of the gods. They have yet to die for real… Rather, they all seem to be slumbering somewhere, awaiting the day of their awakening.
…
--
Year six after the fall of the primordial, clear weather.
I discovered an astonishing secret pertaining to the legendary Sin God. This powerful existence that once fought all the gods seems to have remained alive as well. Despite his grave injuries, he is alive and is slumbering somewhere, seemingly waiting for something.
This is undoubtedly scary. Why is he still alive? Why did he stay behind? No answer… After searching through all the primordial vestiges, I still can't find the answer…
Perhaps some gods assisted him back then?
--
Year 10 after the fall of the primordial, heavy downpour.
The discovery of the Sin God is incredibly worrying.
After several years of research, I failed to discover many clues. However, I am certain that he is indeed still alive. O heavens, what did the primordial gods do?
--
Year 20 after the fall of the primordial, hazy day.
Where is the Sin God slumbering? Where are the other gods slumbering? Why has no one discovered the existence of the Sin God? This is unbelievable.
--
Year 30 after the fall of the primordial, sunny weather.
I found it! I have finally found the secret of the Sin God! Haha. He is indeed different than the other gods. He hid his godly power and inheritance on an alien world. It is no wonder that the other gods did not discover him.
--
Year 40 after the fall of the primordial, blood moon.
So this is the secret of the Sin God? His godly power and inheritance were left on an alien world. On top of that, a spatial whirlpool was constructed there to attract people without stop. These people will be converted into his believers, replenishing his strength without stop.
Hahaha.
With this, how can the other primordial gods discover him? The moment the Sin God returns will also be the moment all the gods tremble and face destruction. This time, there will be no Creation God to help them. As such, no one can stop the Sin God.
--
Year 50 after the fall of the primordial, windy day.
Throughout the years, I have searched every corner of the world. Unfortunately, with my strength, I was not able to discover it… My body is getting weak… If later generations find it, please do tell me of a way to go meet those fellows… I believe… the primordial gods will awaken first… With this… they can at least go and destroy the Sin God before he awakens.
--
Year 60 after the fall of the primordial, heavy snowfall.
I am actually still alive. Heh. I have yet to discover any clues about the alien world… By myself, my strength is limited. I intend to establish a sect focusing on searching for things pertaining to this. I wonder if they can survive on…
--
Year 66 after the fall of the primordial, dark.
Heh, I'm afraid I truly can't hold on any longer. This will probably be my final message. These slabs will all be hidden amid the mountains in hopes of preserving them as best as possible. I wonder if the gods will see these in the future… If you gods truly see these... please do go look for the Sin God. Naturally, all my findings will only be proven true if an alien world indeed exists. If there is no such alien world, there is no need to worry.
--
Year 103 after the fall of the primordial, hail.
I am the third sect master of the Divine Sect. Based on the sect ancestor's request, I am leaving a message here. We have finally found clues about the alien world. As for their method of passage, it remains unknown.
The only thing we know is that they are all believers of the Sin God. They are exhausting all means available to them to aid the Sin God's recovery. This is without a doubt extremely terrifying. As such, we will try our best to foil their plan.
Who are they? Where do they originate from? We don't know. Our only clues are that they all have two horns on their head and that they call themselves the twin-horns race.

Chapter 741: This Is Not True!

Year 109 after the fall of the primordial, snowstorm.
I seem to have discovered some clues that seem rather useless. I have always been curious as to why the Sin God challenged the entire world. After my subsequent research, I found that the Sin God might have obtained an ability capable of creating a new world.
He very well could have intended to destroy this world and create his own world. Perhaps… that new world is the very one he slumbers in? Naturally, this is merely an assumption on my part.
--
Year 120 after the fall of the primordial, heatwave.
The secret of the Sin God seems to have something to do with rebirth. Master once said that the Sin God will constantly absorb the power of faith to undergo endless rebirth. One can only truly destroy him by eliminating his seed and severing his roots prior to his full awakening.
However, how can one find him? How can one destroy him? I have zero clues, and I am already an old man. I have dedicated my entire life to seeking the secret of the Sin God, yet I have still failed to discover anything. I am indeed not master's match. As for my disciples, they have long given up on this quest.
I'm afraid the ancestors' teachings will end here. Just today, a few of my disciples started killing each other over the position of sect master. I am truly disheartened to see this and truly wish to continue the teachings of our ancestors. I don't know if it will…
--
Year 130 after the fall of the primordial, sunny.
Sect Master Huang was here.
--
Year 150 after the fall of the primordial, rainy.
What is the point of writing all this?
--
Year 200 after the fall of the primordial, snowstorm.
Fine, even I am an old man now. Before my death, I suddenly remembered this slab. And thus I came. Although I have no interest whatsoever in the Sin God, this slab seems capable of surviving history itself? Haha, I have no intention of having lived for nothing.
Mhm…
Let me give it some thought. Oh, right, I heard that the godly power left behind by the Sin God can be absorbed. This is what a horned fellow told me before his death. I don't quite believe his words, though. Yeah, there's more. I heard that in their alien world, that god is being worshipped.
Hahaha.
Yes, I have more.
I heard that someone found the will of the Creation God. In the will, the Creation God mentioned that he had left behind some things to encourage the future generations to truly eliminate the Sin God. Anyone who succeeded in eliminating the Sin God would be instantly promoted to godhood. Unfortunately, I don't have the coordinates of that damnable world. Otherwise I could just bring someone over to eliminate that annoying Sin God. With that, wouldn't I be a god as well?
Tsk tsk tsk…
Naturally, the main reason I have not attempted anything is that I don't believe any of this. In any case, I have never seen a god. I reckon the so-called gods are nothing but superstition. If the gods are truly so amazing, why did they die?
Hehe.
All right, great Sect Leader Huang will leave now…
I reckon nobody will continue writing on these slabs in the future. None of the youngsters nowadays care about the gods. After all, those matters are too far back in the past.
--
That was the end.
After this final message, no further messages were left. This was a chronicle left behind by a certain expert of a certain race after he had traveled the entire world in search of the gods. Ultimately, that person had discovered the secret of the Sin God.
As the gods read this, they all chilled. Was the Sin God truly still alive? They dared not believe this.
Some gods started voicing their doubt. "These slabs…"
A different god sighed. "They have already been inspected. The inspection verified that all the slabs matched the dates written on them. Everything was from that era."
All the gods sank into silence. Something like this was impossible to fake, not when there were so many gods here. Therefore, regardless of how much they doubted the content of the slabs, they could not doubt the existence of the slab, the old man, or the sect he had established.
Divine Sect…
The eyes of a certain god started shining. Countless figures started flashing before his eyes.
--
Divine Sect.
Established on year xxx, ended on year xxx.
Sect leader: …
Descendents: …
Goals: …
--
With his own eyes, he pierced time itself and witnessed the birth and ruin of that sect. He did not forget to play all he had witnessed in the form of holograms so all the gods could see it.
"…"
Everyone sank into silence. They were well aware of this god.'s ability In short… the Sin God…
A certain flustered god started voicing his doubts. "No. This can only prove that these people truly believed what they wrote. However, with their level, what if they were wrong?"
"That is possible."
"Twin horns, alien world… Haha. How is it possible for an alien world to exist?"
Some other gods started agreeing. "That's right."
"We are all gods here. If there is indeed an alien world, how could we not know of it? Even if that alien world is located in a different dimension, causing us all to be unable to sense it, the Spatial God would be able to sense it."
"The Spatial God is already dead."
"During the chaotic war back then, he was the first god to die. Have you forgotten?"
"…"
"From the slab, this alien world was created by the Sin God himself. In order to prevent the other gods from going there, he most certainly placed the world far away from this world. With regular methods, we will not be able to get there."
"I doubt it."
The gods started arguing. In fact, due to this matter pertaining to the Sin God, these gods had created some a divine network of sorts that worked like the internet. Within this network, all the gods could see the projections of the other gods. One could say that this was, in a way, a virtual reality unique to these gods.
A figure that was obviously much more imposing than the others appeared, causing all the gods to sink into silence. "What is the point of arguing about all this? Regardless of whether it's true or not, won't we find out after conducting an investigation? For now, we have to first confirm whether such an alien world truly exists. Then we have to confirm if the twin-horns race truly exists."
"All right."
A certain god started investigating right away. As for the other gods, they could only smile bitterly. Would an alien world be so easy to find? However, the god in charge of the investigation did not take long to return with an extremely flustered expression, "Alien… alien world… still exists…"
"What?"
The gods' hearts jolted. It still existed? Now?
That figure smiled bitterly. "Yes. They have attempted to invade the human world several times. According to my investigation, it was all for the sake of faith. Moreover, the humans even captured a twin horn."
"Faith…"
The gods trembled as they heard this. Damn it, could this truly be the Sin God?
One of the figures expressed his doubt. "Did you not ask the humans about this?"
That figure smiled bitterly. "There is no need for that. As it so happens… the twin-horns members have appeared once again. Moreover, I even saw a teleportation portal that twin-horns members were flowing out of without stop. The aura they carry… does not seem like an aura native to this world."
Shua!
At this, all the gods were alarmed. Twin horns… Alien world… All the puzzles seemed to be solved at this instant. So it turned out that an alien world indeed existed. If one thought about it, apart from the Creation God, which other god was capable of creating a world? The Sin God was the only one, since he had been powerful enough to provoke all the gods in existence at the same time.
This was also the same conclusion the slab writer had reached. The Sin God had challenged the Creation God in order to obtain his world-creating power so as to perfect his own world. With that, the Sin God would be able to increase in strength as well. As of this moment, all their questions had been answered!

Chapter 742: Kill!
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Damn it."
The gods trembled in fear. It would have been fine if they hadn't discovered this. But now…
"In short, the Sin God is truly still alive."
Everyone sank into silence. The facts were already there. They could not deny it and had no choice but to face this dreadful fact, that the damnable Sin God was still alive and slumbering in an alien world. To verify this, they had gathered nearly all the gods that had awakened. All the slabs had been gathered and all the clues had been investigated. They had even found the twin-horns members that had arrived in this world.
The gods all looked at each other. This was something they had to face.
"What should we do?"
"Why don't we kill our way there?" a certain god proposed.
Another god was indignant. "Hehe, we have only recently awakened. Going over there now to give our lives away? I feel like it would be better to go after we have all recovered our godly powers and combat powers. That way, we will be more likely to succeed."
The other god sneered. "I have only one question."
"Say it."
"Who do you think will recover faster? You or the Sin God?" he asked coldly.
Shua!
At this question, all the gods sank into silence. This was a question that caused them to all dwell in grief.
"What can we do, then?" a certain god asked meekly.
"Immediately contact all the gods that have awakened and prepare to set off. Before the Sin God can recover, kill him. Let me remind you all of something else that was also recorded on the slabs: the Sin God also left behind his own godly power and inheritance. In other words, if we kill him, we will be able to obtain his godly power. Or perhaps we can even obtain some of the Creation God's leftover godly power."
Bang!
The gods were all enticed by this proposition. Indeed. They recalled the contents of the slabs. If what was written there was true…
At this moment, even the gods that had been wavering earlier were enticed. Who knew how long it would take for them to fully recover? Yet if they could absorb the inheritance of that Sin God… At this point, all the gods were eager to give it a try.
"Very good. Let us prepare to set off. We shall discuss everything else after killing the Sin God."
"Understood."
"With so many different godly powers between us, we are definitely stronger than the current Sin God. By the way, Luck Goddess, don't forget to assist us all."
"She's not here."
"Has she not awakened?" a certain god questioned. That should not be the case. After all, that unique rain earlier should have awakened all the gods.
"No, she is dead."
All the gods turned pale with fright. "Killed by the Sin God?"
"No, I am the one who killed her." That voice continued coldly, "She attempted to absorb my godly power. After I awakened, I killed her. If any of you have any doubts, you can look for me. I am the Forest Goddess."
The divine network sank into silence. Luck Goddess… absorbing godly power…
True, true, that indeed seemed like something that b*tch would do. Surprisingly, though, this time, she had truly angered the Forest Goddess. The only thing they doubted was that the Forest Goddess could defeat the Luck Goddess. However, after giving it some thought, they found it acceptable. This was a unique era where all the gods had recently awakened, an era where everything was possible.
"Without her, things will be somewhat troublesome. However, we have no choice but to put caution to the wind."
"Let us first go to the portal."
"All right."
Shua!
Numerous figures dashed out. Shortly after, all the gods appeared near the portal. At present, the twin-horns members were still wandering about in confusion. That was because, a short while ago, everyone they had killed or touched had transformed into figures of light and vanished, as if everything had been nothing but an illusion.
"What's going on?"
"Is this another of the humans' tricks?"
The elder was furious. "Damn it. These bugs are good for nothing but such trickeries. Go, let us kill our way over and show them our true strength."
"Howl!"
"Howl!"
The twin-horns members howled as their blood boiled with battle intent. Each time they had faced the humans, the results had left a bad taste on their mouth. The time had finally come for their revenge.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
Everyone howled. And thus, they started advancing. Just as they were preparing to teach the puny humans a lesson, suddenly, the sky above was enveloped in darkness. Numerous figures appeared, each incomparably powerful. At the sight of this, all of the twin-horns members trembled. These guys… why was it that each and every one of these figures gave off the same feeling their lord gave off?
"Fear not! This must be another of the humans' tricks!" the elder howled. "Do not give these bastards any chances. Kill them all."
"Yes!"
As they heard this, the twin-horns members all seemed to be enlightened. The damnable humans had already tricked them earlier. Now the humans were thinking of tricking them again? This was too excessive!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
With boiling blood, the twin-horns members charged at the sky. Each of the gods that had appeared was as dazzling as the sun itself. It was precisely because they seemed so powerful that the twin-horns members were of the opinion that this was a trick.
Illusion! This must be an illusion!
Bang!
They all charged at the sky only to transform into a rain of blood. Only a single one of the gods had needed to casually wave his hand to freeze all these twin-horns members in place before transforming them into nothingness. Bugs… were still bugs, after all. Only the twin-horns elder was left alive.
Hum—
A certain god pointed at the elder's forehead.
"Tell me everything pertaining to your god."
Shua!
Radiance swirled about, and next, all the information pertaining to the god was extracted. Some were real, while some was merely propaganda. In the eyes of the twin-horns members, their god was an omnipotent existence.
"This fits the description on the slabs."
"Sin God, eh?"
"The world he created was too small, resulting in a lack of faith. This is the reason they keep invading the human world…"
"Yes, everything seems to click."
All the gods exchanged glances, each of them in a heavy mood. They had all given thought to how this world should be ruled moving forward after their awakening. They had also contemplated ways to grow their believers. However, none of them had expected that the first incident they would partake in after awakening was doing battle with the Sin God.
"Looks like we have no choice but to take a trip over there."
"Yes."
The gods all looked at the portal. Twin-horns members were still flowing out of the portal without stop. However, all of them were cleanly killed off by the gods.
"Let's go. It is time we say hi to an old friend."
Swish! Swish!
The formidable gods all descended from the sky and immediately entered the portal. The initial anxiousness and fear was nowhere to be seen, replaced by excitement. The Sin God… hehe. That was a boundless amount of godly power waiting for them there. For a lot of these gods, the godly power of the Sin God would be sufficient to help them break through, becoming even stronger.
Shua! Shua!
Numerous gods flashed forward. At this time, near the portal, a black shadow noiselessly appeared. He regarded the portal and the surroundings that were now empty, a grin forming on his face.

Chapter 743: Trick and Kill
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
On the alien world, the moment the gods appeared, all the living beings present there reduced to nothingness. Regardless of how strong they were, it was pointless before these gods. In horror, the twin horns members fled before being frozen and subsequently killed.
Bang!
Their minds were extracted and read by the gods.
"Indeed…"
"They are trying to expand the faith of their god."
"Has anyone found that fellow?"
"Found him. However, it seems somewhat weird. From our progress thus far and what we have seen of their god from their memories, this god does not seem too strong."
"An unknown minor god?"
"Mhm… His aura is somewhat weak, and his appearance does not resemble the Sin God."
"Is it a disguise? Perhaps he wanted to hide his appearance from these mortals. After all, there is no need for a god to reveal their true appearance to mortals."
"True."
The gods all sank into silence. Everything they had seen thus far had been extracted from the memories of these twin horns: the image of a god that had been exaggerated with some special effects to spice it up. This was definitely different from how the god normally looked.
"It doesn't matter. Regardless of whether that is his true appearance, won't we know after taking a look?"
"That makes sense."
"As for these twin-horns members, just kill them while leaving their consciousnesses behind. In any case, we still need to find a way to return after we are done here."
"Mhm."
Shua! Shua!
Numerous lights swirled around. The twin-horns members that were charging at the gods were no different than moths flying into a flame. After dying, they all transformed into numerous clumps of consciousness. One only needed to approach the clumps to extract all their memories. Due to the information contained in their heads, even in death, they could not obtain a complete death.
That the twin-horns race had been able to invade the human world multiple times proved that they had complete knowledge of how to teleport to the human world. As such, the gods were not worried about the matter of returning to their home planet. Everything seemed to be under control.
"Found him," a god said with shining eyes.
"Go!"
All the gods charged over. The Sin God… had the time come for battle? They were all filled with anticipation. After joining hands to kill this Sin God, all of them would be able to increase their strength. However, some of the gods were still doubtful, as they felt that something did not seem right, as if they had missed something. Was the god here truly the Sin God?
…
In the Genetic Union, Chen Feng was silently studying the screen in front of him. All the statistics from the awakening of the gods until their recent departure were gathered on this screen he was looking at. And now…
Shua!
The portal was shown on that screen. Just earlier, he had with his own eyes watched on as all the gods had stepped through the portal, leaving this planet.
Naturally, the gods were in no way stupid. Some of them had placed some firm barriers around to lock the entire portal down, not allowing any regular life-forms near it.
"None of those gods noticed you monitoring them?" The deputy president was amazed.
"Satellite monitoring," Chen Feng replied expressionlessly. These primordial gods probably had no idea that, high up in the sky, there was a thing capable of seeing them, monitoring all their actions. No godly power was required, nor was there a need to lock on to any of the gods. The monitoring could progress noiselessly, undetected.
"It's almost time," Chen Feng muttered.
Shua!
A black radiance flashed. Near the portal, a pitch-black figure appeared. For the first time, the appearance of this figure was revealed: he was Qin Hai.
"How is it?" Chen Feng asked.
"No problems encountered," Qin Hai said calmly. "Based on the coordinates you provided, I went over and killed all the twin-horns members that knew about teleportation and the coordinates. All the materials and data that could be used has been destroyed as well. As of now, that twin-horns world will not be able to teleport to this world."
Chen Feng smiled. "Very good." In other words, they only had to destroy this portal and the connection would be completely severed.
"It has been hard on you and Kong Bai," Chen Feng said in a soft voice. That's right. All this was the handiwork of Chen Feng, Qin Hai, and Kong Bai. Kong Bai did not dare transmigrate to the Primordial Era. However, what of the subsequent eras? Those were godless eras, eras Kong Bai could visit as he wished. With the assistance of Chen Feng's Luck Aura, Kong Bai had been to easily visit the different eras so as to leave behind numerous legends pertaining to the so-called Divine Sect, as well as the slabs the gods had discovered.
These were what the gods had uncovered. The only reason for all this had been in order to lure all the gods to the alien world. Chen Feng remembered that in their previous battle with the twin-horns race, they had discovered that there was also a god there on the twin-horns world. Regardless of how much the twin-horns race had bragged about their god, it seemed like this was in fact a minor god. They had reached this conclusion after noticing how slow this god's recovery rate was.
In any case, it did not matter if this god was powerful or not. So long as there were trails of this god's existence, Chen Feng would be able to disguise this god as the legendary Sin God, Ye. Next, all the awakened gods would head over. And finally…
Suddenly, Chen Feng said, "Qin Hai."
"Understood."
The black diamond on Qin Hai's forehead started gleaming.
Hum—
In Chen Feng's hands, luck and misfortune pulsed and landed on the barriers protecting the portal. Instantly, the barriers collapsed, allowing Qin Hai free passage.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Numerous loud booms resounded. Instantly, the huge portal collapsed, transforming into nothingness.
"So long, gods," Chen Feng said with a burning gaze. The Spatial God was long dead. A huge number of gods had awakened this time, yet not a single one of them possessed a teleportation ability. This was the core of Chen Feng's plan. Now that all those gods had been sent to the alien world, they had any way of returning.
With this, the humans would be safe. Or perhaps one could say that the Genetic Era would regain its peace. This was Chen Feng's plan, his scheme against all the gods. From the legends of the Sin God to the slabs planted by Kong Bai, followed by the assassinations conducted by Qin Hai, each section was closely linked together, finally resulting in the full departure of all the gods that did not belong to this Genetic Era.
Everyone gazed at the sky. Behind the haze, a sunny and cloudless sky seemed to be coming out. Was everything finally over? At this time, on the alien world, the gods that were heading toward the Sin God heard the loud explosion. Next, they saw the portal collapse.
"Who did it?"
"Hmph!"
"Hold on…"
Some of the gods already had a bad premonition. "We seem to have neglected something."
A certain god that was known for his wits vigilantly said, "Quick, start up a brand new portal."
Shua! Shua!
From the innumerable consciousnesses of the dead twin-horns members, they started searching for information pertaining to the teleportation portal. Alarmingly, all the information pertaining to the portal seemed to have vanished. No coordinates could be found, nor could any no know-how regarding portals. On top of that, even all the recorded data had vanished.
The gods were alarmed.
"How is this possible?"
Finally, some of the gods realized it."This is a trap…"
"Someone used the destruction of the Primordial Era as bait to lure all the gods away."
"That is not possible!"
"How is that not possible? Think properly. Is the god here even the Sin God? Even now, you guys are still doubtful, right?"
The gods all sank into silence. True, was the god here even the Sin God? After pondering the matter from this perspective, they discovered something dreadful. If this was truly the Sin God's world, how could it be so weak? Moreover, from the memories they had extracted, the god here had only moved once to stop a mere comet, and his figure had immediately gone translucent afterward. That was simply too weak. As such, there was no Sin God here. Here… only a minor unknown god could be found. As for all the other gods, they had been tricked into this world.

Chapter 744: God-Slaughtering Trap
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Who did this?"
Some of the gods found this unbelievable. Them, the gods revered by countless beings, had actually been scammed?
The Forest Goddess spoke. "I know of a person. The strongest human, Chen Feng."
Shua!
Next, she projected everything Chen Feng had done into the air. After the other gods saw it, they understood thoroughly. Everyone sank into silence. Such a character, and those familiar methods…
A certain god raged. "A mere human. When I return, I will eliminate all nine generations of his family."
"Well, it seems like we can no longer return."
Some of the gods appeared bitter and astringent.
"…"
They all sank into silence. Anger? What was the point of getting angry now? They were no commoners; they were all able to instantly suppress their anger. However, as they looked at the twin-horns world before them, this desolate world, they wondered if they truly had to remain trapped here.
A certain god suddenly said, "This is not possible! I feel like there are some issues with this analysis. If this operation was truly problematic to begin with, how could it have gone unnoticed by the several thousand of us? Moreover, the method of returning… Granted, some gods are quite clumsy in nature. However, there are some who are extremely cautious as well. Therefore, there had to be some gods who immediately figured out a way to return the moment they arrived here. Those gods should have extracted memories pertaining to how to return the moment they arrived here. Perhaps that portal's collapse had nothing whatsoever to do with Chen Feng. Rather, it was the work of some gods that wished to trap us all?" this god concluded, providing a new angle to consider this from.
"That is quite possible."
Everyone sank into contemplation, finding this analysis to be more probable. True, how was it possible for several thousand gods here to all think of the same thing? How was it possible that not a single one of them had even bothered thinking about their return? Therefore, it was quite probable that there was a traitor in their midst! How could a mere mortal like Chen Feng be able to trick them, trick the gods?
Suddenly, a god spoke. "Blackmount God. I recall noticing you doing something earlier."
The Blackmount God did not deny that as he coldly said, "Yes. The first thing I did after entering was kill a certain elder. After that, I tried searching his memories to look for information pertaining to the teleportation. However, nothing was found. Therefore, I assumed that perhaps the other gods had extracted the information pertaining to teleportation before me."
Everyone had a pensive look. "Indeed. Who else did the same thing immediately after arriving?"
Something like this could not be hidden from all the gods here. Therefore, it did not take long for some gods to start standing out. However, horrifying all of them, all the gods said the same thing. None of them had obtained any information pertaining to teleportation. Several thousand gods had searched for the information, yet not a single one of them had obtained it?
"Are you all kidding me?" the Slaughter God asked furiously.
"They are not lying," said the Deceit God. "I can't feel any lies from these fellows, nor any godly power fluctuations."
"…"
All the gods sank into silence. Was this clue a dead end as well? Suddenly, the truth of things became fuzzy. Was this the work of Chen Feng, or was it some traitor? Or perhaps…
A certain god spoke suddenly. "I have an idea. Regardless of who the culprit is, Chen Feng or a traitor, we only need to focus on returning. Thus, does the local god here have any teleportation or spatial abilities? I feel like our only hope lies in him."
Everyone realized that this was indeed the truth. So long as they found that god, everything would be solved.
"Go."
They exchanged glances before once again heading toward that god.
At this time, Chen Feng was chatting up Kong Bai and the rest at the Genetic Union.
"What do you think those gods will do?"
"What else?" Qin Hai said expressionlessly. "They will probably go looking for the local god. That is their only hope. Naturally, the result for that will only serve to bring them into further despair."
Since they had decided to act, they had certainly acted thoroughly.
The things Qin Hai had done when he had entered the twin-horns world previously had severed all possibilities of further teleportation. With the assistance of luck, all possibilities had been easily destroyed. Not a single god would be able to return to this world. They would struggle and fight each other until, finally, the leftover gods started competing over the little amount of faith that world contained.
Everyone was there. At this time, as Chen Feng guessed, the gods there had finally reached their destination. There, a god slumbered. They did not need to even awaken that god. From the first moment their gazes land on that god, their hearts chilled. That was because the aura of this god was so weak that it was almost negligible. This was clearly a low-tier god, a minor and new god that was not even qualified to have a title attached to his name.
"Try asking him."
They forced the god awake.
"Ah?"
The god looked around at his tiny world blankly. For so many gods that were more powerful than him to have suddenly appeared here, he nearly collapsed emotionally. "You… who are you guys?"
"Do you have any information about teleportation?" asked one of the strongest gods there while he was radiating a faint aura capable of causing one's heart to flutter.
"Yes, yes I have," the minor god answered in fear. However, before they could even feel any joy from his answer, the god started giving off several names. These were all the elders of the twin-horns race. "These people, all of them know about teleportation."
"…"
"They are all dead. The data pertaining to teleportation has vanished as well."
All the gods were speechless.
"If so, there is no longer any information pertaining to teleportation here. All I have ever done here is sleep. Everything was handed over to them."
The minor god was collapsing emotionally.
All the other gods: "…"
As of this moment, they all realized with great sorrow that they had truly been trapped here. All these illustrious gods had to be trapped on such a tiny world?
"I know of a certain person who knows about teleportation," the minor god said after giving it some thought. "Based on what the elders reported to me previously, Chen Feng once arrived on this world. He is also the only human who has successfully left this world. Perhaps you guys can…"
Pu!
The gods were so angered that they started coughing up blood. Chen Feng! Again! How could they still not understand? All this was a trap set by that damnable human, Chen Feng!
"Chen Feng!"
Their grievances surged to the sky. Never had they hated a single mortal so much.
"We… can no longer return?"
After giving it some thought, their fear intensified. They could no longer return! This was the scariest of all!
The gods here had recently awakened and had little godly power at their disposal. The only reason they had even come here was in order to kill the Sin God and obtain his godly power to aid their own recovery. Who could have expected that they would end up trapped here? The moment their godly power dried up, they would probably…
No! I don't want to fall into slumber yet again!
A certain god pointed at the minor local god and asked, "Hey, come. How many people do you have on this world?"
"Not much," the minor god said in horror. "Some of them have already been killed by you guys. At this moment, there are around a hundred thousand of them. Please don't kill me. If you guys need faith, I can convert it all to you guys."
"Oh?"
The gods' eyes shone. Among the gods trapped here, some were still filled with remorse, while some had yet to recover from their shock. There were also some who had already started setting their sights on the inhabitants here. If they couldn't return, they had no choice but to fight over the twin-horns members.
They believed that so long as they survived, they would be able to last long enough, until the day came where the twin-horns race once again found passage back to their home world. Since they had been able to discover the methods of teleporting once, they would most certainly be able to do it once again after some time. They only needed to survive until that day arrived. And before the arrival of that day, they would require a never-ending supply of faith and godly power.
Shua!
Their gazes landed on the living beings of this planet. When they once again looked at each other, hostility was apparent in their eyes.

Chapter 745: Who Are You?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Don't act recklessly," a rather prestigious god warned, causing all the gods to calm their heads. "First, try to think if there are other solutions. As for you, don't mess around."
"All right." The minor god was absolutely horrified. He felt like he was the saddest of them all. He had been slowly and steadily recovering here in this world. Who could have guessed that he would encounter so many powerful gods when he woke up today? No matter what these gods said, he had to listen. Right now, everyone was looking for a way to leave.
Alas, nothing was found. One day passed, then three days, seven days, one month, and even more. As time passed, the gods finally started collapsing emotionally, as they no longer had much godly power left.
"We can't keep waiting like this."
"Yeah, those major gods are surely trying to exhaust us to death so they can monopolize this planet's faith."
"That is certain."
Finally, a number of gods started resisting. Due to their low amount of godly power, they had no choice but to resist. And thus the war of the gods erupted. Countless gods started fighting each other so they could obtain the pitiful hundred thousand believers of the twin-horns race. None of them had expected that so soon after awakening from the true war of the gods during the Primordial Era, a new war would erupt here. One could say that this war was in fact even more desperate than the previous war had been.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The twin-horns world shook without stop. Everyone was fighting while that minor local god could do nothing but pitifully defend the world from destruction. Since he was the most familiar with this world, this task had landed on him. Nobody bothered doing anything to him, as everyone was clear that regardless of who the final victor was, this world had to survive. Otherwise, they would all be trapped in space, lonely and desolate as they waited for their eventual deaths.
Bang! Bang!
The war continued. Suddenly, the entire sky sank into silence as a bloody glow bloomed. Finally, the first god had been killed. The entire world sank into momentary silence. However, almost immediately afterward, the battle resumed. Everyone was fighting for survival.
Slumbering? None of them were willing to fall into slumber. If this was the human world, they would still be able to awaken from the slumber. But here, slumbering in this damnable world? No, they were not willing!
The moment they fell into slumber here, with the pitiful amount of godly power this world could supply, the slumber could very well be eternal. That was scarier than death itself. As such, they might as well throw caution to the wind and fight it out.
Bang! Bang!
The battle continued. Boundless godly powers with numerous colors flickered without stop, driving this world to destruction. Amid all this, the Forest Goddess had stayed her hand. That was because she had noticed something familiar: coincidences, inner conflict… weren't these things that luck bitch had been good at? But wasn't she dead? Could this truly be a coincidence?
Shua!
Hands pulsing with godly power, she helped that minor god protect this world. The other gods had already descended into madness, causing this world to be on the verge of collapsing from their fights.
The minor god was grateful. "Th-thank you."
The Forest Goddess ignored him. As she had been awakened earlier, she had quite a healthy amount of godly power. As such, she did not need to fight. Unfortunately, this minor god here would probably not last much longer. The moment this battle ended would also be this god's moment of death. Those gods would not allow a god all the inhabitants here believed in to live, as that would be too dangerous. Therefore, this god would most certainly die.
Pu!
With blooming blood, yet another god was killed. The almighty and majestic gods had become nothing but cannon fodder here due to them being too weak. The other gods all blanked momentarily before regaining their senses and resuming the battle. This was a war between gods. Therefore, there would definitely be more deaths.
Pu! Pu!
With the continuous death of gods, everyone soon became accustomed to it. The ground was dyed red by blood, and the sky was tinged by various colors, each representing a different god. Godly powers bloomed everywhere, dying gods screamed everywhere, and numerous colors interwove together. From this group of several thousand gods, a huge number died off.
Ultimately, amid the blood-red world, only around 100 gods persevered, fighting on with great difficulty.
Pu!
Yet another god died off. With this, the surviving gods numbered less than a hundred.
Among the surviving gods, some could no longer stand properly, while some were covered in wounds. Everyone was glaring at each other, waiting for the final fatal attack.
The Forest Goddess sighed. "Can you all stop? This is enough. With the number of twin-horns members, even if they are split among you guys, the godly power will be sufficient for you all to recover."
Only at this did the gods awaken from their madness. True, this was already sufficient. This was a war where there were no winners. Their only goal was to survive, that was all. They looked around, looking at the multicolored and ruined world. It was only at this moment that they realized how bitter this war had been and how many gods had perished.
Several thousands of them had perished. Each of the survivors was the strongest of gods, or to be more accurate, these gods used to be the strongest. As for those so-called low-tier and mid-tier gods, they had all perished in this war.
"Is it over?" a certain god muttered.
"I guess so."
For now, none of them had any desire to do battle.
"If… if I can return to the human world, I will most certainly kill that damnable fellow."
Their eyes blazed with hatred. Chen Feng! That damnable human! When had they ever been tricked so badly by a mere mortal? After all, several thousand gods had been tricked. God slaying was an incredibly terrifying term, as even in the Primordial Era, anyone that showed any potential god-slaying capability was instantly killed off by the gods.
That was because none of the gods wished to be the one to perish. And yet this Chen Feng had caused several thousand gods to die. With the persuasion of the Forest Goddess, the gods here had finally stopped fighting. Regardless of how bitter the battle had been, regardless of how many gods had perished, now that the believers of the twin-horns race were sufficient to support them all, there was no longer a need to fight.
However, this would only stay true temporarily. And now they had one final question left. How were they supposed to convert these believers?
"I... I can transfer them all to you guys," the minor god said in horror.
A god sneered. "There is no need for that. They believe in you. Thus, the godly power will be supplied to you. Even if you are willing to convert their faith to godly power and transfer the godly power to us, that is too much of a waste. Moreover, this will result in all of us relying on you alone. We definitely cannot agree to this. As such, I have an even better solution," he said coldly.
"What solution is that?" the trembling minor god asked.
That god laughed nastily. "Killing you. Next, we can divide the believers of this world."
Shua!
The moment his words left his mouth, he moved.
The other gods merely watched on silently. Even the Forest Goddess could only shake her head. From the beginning, they had been aware that this was the only acceptable ending. For any of them to start gathering believers, this minor god had to first die.
The Forest Goddess sighed regretfully. Compared to these gods, this minor god here was probably the most innocent of them all. Unfortunately, there was truly no helping it. They only had themselves for blame for invading the human world.
Bang!
Terrifying godly power descended. This was a true top-tier godly power. Despite the low amount, it was still something a minor god could never hope to contend against.
Shua!
The terrifying godly power swept forth.
Pu!
The familiar sound of flesh being pierced echoed. And yet when all the gods there got a clear look, their hearts thumped wildly, as what they saw was truly too horrifying. That minor god had used a single hand to easily block the attack from the other god.
So easily, so terrifyingly. He lightly grabbed at the clump of godly power in his hand. Just like that, the top-tier god's godly power could no longer advance.
The top-tier god was horrified. "How is this possible?"
The minor god chuckled. "Ah. Collapse!"
With that, the godly power collapsed and that god was flung back, coughing blood wildly.
The other gods were all shaken.
"You… who exactly are you?"
"Me?" The minor god grinned. "Who do you guys think I am?"
Bang!
Suddenly, the corpses of the gods sprawled everywhere, the godly powers lingering in the air, and the blood of the gods that had been spilled earlier were absorbed by the world. The minor god stood up, pulsing with a seemingly boundless godly power. Everything that the world had absorbed transformed into a huge whirlpool before entering his eyes and transforming into numerous clumps of flame that seemed capable of blazing on forever, akin to a sin that could never be extinguished.

Chapter 746: Phenomenon in the Sky
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"It's you!"
All the surviving gods trembled, watching on incredulously. The Sin God… Ye… It was actually him for real! How was this possible? How could it be him? Had this not been a scam on the part of Chen Feng? Was this not a lie told by Chen Feng? This guy… This guy… They all trembled.
"How is it possible…"
They did not dare believe that the Sin God was actually still alive and was actually this powerful.
The Sin God smiled. "I have to thank you all for this. After absorbing the blood, bodies, and godly power of several thousand gods… Ahh… This is truly too perfect. I don't know how much longer it would have taken me to recover without you guys."
Bang!
Their hearts all shuddered. Everything they had done had been taken advantage of by this fellow. If they had known earlier that the Sin God was here, they would have most certainly been able to kill him by joining hands. But now… But now… Their hearts trembled. Several thousand gods had killed each other until only a hundred remained. As for the several thousand gods that had died, they had served as fertilizer for the Sin God, transforming into his source of power. With the pitiful little power the surviving gods had, how could they contend against him?
"No wonder," the Forest Goddess muttered. Earlier, she had been curious about why a mere minor god had been able to keep this world stable even as all the other gods were battling it out. Unexpectedly, this guy was indeed the Sin God. Finally, all the pieces of the puzzle had clicked into place. The entire god-slaying operation had started with the Sin God, and now, it was ending with the Sin God. They had finally confirmed the existence of the Sin God, yet they were no longer capable of contending against him.
"No, this is not possible. How is it possible that you can absorb all their power? Their godly powers obviously dissipated amid the air. How is it possible that you could absorb them?" one of them roared. How was it possible to absorb godly power that had dissipated? On top of that, there was also the blood of those gods.
They had clearly seen the blood seeping into the ground while the godly power dissipated and dispersed. How could the Sin God have absorbed it? This was not something the Sin God was supposed to be capable of doing.
"Hehe. Didn't the legend you guys read tell you?" The Sin God had a faint smile. "Because… this is a world I created myself." He raised his hand.
Bang!
The entire world started spinning. At this instant, all the powers that had dispersed into nature, into the world itself, merged with the Sin God, becoming his. This, in turn, caused the hearts of all the gods present to jolt violently. They had finally recalled what they had read from the slabs… The Sin God had created his own world, and it was because of that that he had started fighting the Creation God. He wanted to gain comprehension on the true origin of a world, and he also wanted to gain comprehension on the methods to create a true world.
They all despaired.
"How could things have developed this way…"
The Sin God laughed toyingly. "Welcome to my world."
Bang!
Next, the godly power of sin swirled out, enveloping all the gods there.
…
At the same time, everyone in the Genetic Union was celebrating the disappearance of the gods. The primordial that had just descended had vanished yet again before it could even display its might. Humanity had once again returned to a godless era.
"Hahaha, the gods are all gone."
"Without gods, those resonators will not be able to borrow the power of gods anymore."
"Yeah, now the resonators are nothing but stronger awakened ones. They are no longer as threatening."
"This is great."
Countless people were overjoyed. On this day, countless people celebrated. This was a day of celebration for all of humanity, not to forget the ancients. Nearly the entire world was in a wild celebration. The rain had stopped, while the haze was receding, with the sun finally shining through. The warm sunshine bathed the world, giving everyone a feeling of warmth. From now onwards, this would again be an era of humans.
The deputy president patted Chen Feng's shoulder. "Many thanks." His face was rather flushed, a testament to how much liquor he had drunk in celebration.
Nobody knew more than him how difficult it had been for humanity, and he was the only one who knew how anxious the higher-ups of humanity had been. Fortunately, everything had ended.
"Mhm."
Chen Feng nodded, but he did not partake in the celebration. He walked over to a nearby summit and gazed at the sunny sky, his brows frowning.
"Spirit, can you check for me if there are any problems?"
Spirit shook her head. "I checked. Nothing."
Chen Feng was filled with doubt. "Even you can't see it?" Was it truly a misconception on his part? For reasons unknown, he had an uneasy feeling. He had already checked with Spirit and confirmed that among all his plans, no problems had cropped up and everything had been implemented perfectly. It was no longer possible for those gods to return. Moreover, they had even started fighting among themselves. Not many of them remained now. Chen Feng had confirmed all these things. Everything had progressed smoothly. So why was he still feeling so uneasy?
Kong Bai sat down beside Chen Feng and said, "I told you to not touch yourself that much. See, even your spirit is weakened now."
Chen Feng rolled his eyes. This guy…
"Is it because you haven't had anything progress so smoothly for a while now?" Kong Bai curled his lips. Is Chen Feng's confidence truly so low?
"No." Chen Feng shook his head and said with a solemn expression, "I am still anxious because the opponents are, after all, gods!"
God. This was no mere term or title. As a person with dual godly powers himself, he was clear how scary the gods were. Even with his present strength, when it came to pure combat strength, he would probably fail to defeat even the weakest of gods, let alone the several thousand gods that he had schemed against.
"The so-called gods are nothing but stronger life-forms," Kong Bai said in disdain.
Chen Feng shook his head. "You are talking about minor gods. Those minor gods are indeed nothing but life-forms with stronger combat prowess. However, those major gods possess way too many things we do not understand. Those things…"
Chen Feng gazed at the sky. Those were exactly what he was worried about. After all… those were gods!
"What is there to fear?" muttered Kong Bai. "Regardless of how strong they are, they are all off of this planet now, right?"
However, just as he finished his words…
Bang!
A terrifying flash streaked past the sky, startling countless people.
This was now a godless world, yet that enormous bolt of lightning that had appeared was formed of godly power. A godly power that far surpassed anything they had felt thus far.
Everyone was alarmed.
"What happened?"
Bang! Bang!
Thunder roared as numerous enormous bolts of lightning descended and godly power enveloped the entire sky.
"What is that?"
Kong Bai and the rest were shocked as well.
Chen Feng's pupils shrunk. "That is…"
Bang!
Amid the boundless lightning, a figure suddenly appeared. This figure resembled a giant, and with a single hand, he ripped the sky apart, like someone tearing apart a piece of cloth. Instantly, the sky was ripped into two parts, presenting an extremely sinister view to all the onlookers below. Half the sky was clear and boundless, while the other half was filled with crackling lightning. Just like this, amid this bizarre sight, that figure stepped out. With a single step, boundless godly power roiled out.

Chapter 747: A Real God
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"What in the world is that?"
Everyone was alarmed. Even with the high frequency at which gods had awakened recently, they had never seen such an alarming sight. The action of ripping the sky itself apart had truly shocked everyone.
Bang! Bang!
Even as thunder roared, that huge figure walked out, revealing an appearance nobody had seen before. On that face, a pair of burning eyes flickered.
Hum—
Hum—
Suddenly, Chen Feng's Misfortune Pen started trembling, seemingly in fear. A clear thought was transmitted over to Chen Feng, telling him the identity of this god…
"Sin God!"
The Misfortune Goddess made it extremely clear in her transmission. Instantly, Chen Feng's eyes went wide.
Kong Bai's mouth widened as well. "Holy shit." The Sin God? It couldn't be, right? They had just been making up stories about this god not too long ago. As such, they were naturally rather clear on this god. However, wasn't this god rumored to be dead? Why was he alive now?
"How strong." Spirit stared at the Sin God blankly. That intense radiance and that cackling godly power around him was even greater than what the Luck Goddess had possessed.
Chen Feng's scalp went numb. "How can such a god appear?" An intense sense of crisis could be felt. Not only had the Sin God appeared, it seemed like he had even recovered extremely well. A god at this level was not something humans could even hope to contend against. He had schemed hard to get all the gods away from this world. Never had he expected that a big guy like this would be overlooked.
"Spirit, can you send him over to that world as well?" Chen Feng asked. Based on the information Qin Hai had obtained, they would be able to open a portal toward to the twin-horns world.
"I can only try," Spirit said with a conflicted expression. She truly had no confidence in being able to influence a person at this level.
"Give it a try."
Chen Feng looked over at the solidifying figure. He knew that regardless of the success rate, he had to give it a try. And thus, Qin Hai started trying to create a portal to the twin-horns world based on the information he had gathered. However, he failed.
Finally, Chen Feng noticed that things were getting worse for them. "What's going on?"
Qin Hai blanked. "No idea. The information I had obtained is not wrong. However, I somehow feel that the entire twin-horns world has vanished?"
"Vanished?" Chen Feng's heart thumped. How had the twin-horns world vanished? Had the world been destroyed because the battle of the gods there had been overly violent? Just as Chen Feng was filled with doubt, that god finally finished tearing the sky apart. His figure had also fully solidified. By his side, several familiar figures appeared. Among them was the Forest Goddess.
Suddenly, Chen Feng's pupils shrunk. "Why is she here as well?"
Kong Bai and the rest exchanged glances in horror as well. The Forest Goddess had obviously been tricked over to the twin-horns world. Hold on… the other gods around her had also been tricked. Why were they here? Could it be…
Bang!
A dreadful godly power cackled about in the sky. Chen Feng's mind spun rapidly and finally reached a terrifying conclusion. The so-called minor god on the twin-horns world was in fact the Sin God. Their lies had turned into reality!
Bang! Bang!
The entire world was enveloped in godly power.
Kong Bai gulped. "God damn it. Have we delivered several thousand gods to him like some delivery boy?"
For this Sin God to be so powerful, he had to have absorbed quite a number of gods.
Qin Hai had an unsightly expression. "I only want to know one thing. How is it possible for him to know a method of teleporting to this world? He is not the Spatial God. Moreover, he is even able to bring other gods along with him."
"Perhaps… he once absorbed the Spatial God as well?" everyone guessed. Instantly, the world seemed to go silent. If that was truly the truth, this could very well be the end of humanity.
"Spirit, think of a solution for me," Chen Feng said solemnly.
Shua!
Luck Aura was fully activated. In such a circumstance, only Luck Aura could seek a lifeline amid the numerous proverbial threads of fatalities. However, as luck wove around, searching for a lifeline…
Bang!
A godly power erupted as a terrifying godly power rippled out from above the sky. Instantly, all the threads were severed.
"Get all humans to retreat," Chen Feng commanded without hesitation.
The truth was that the Genetic Union had some precautions in place. Their plan was to once again return to the past era, to hide humanity amid the regions enveloped in the aura of primal chaos. Chen Feng had once tested this plan out. Even Spirit and the Misfortune Goddess were unable to detect the goings-on within the region of primal chaos.
"All right," the deputy president answered unwaveringly. This was the humanity's final line of defense. He looked around at the flourishing world of humans. The humans would migrate from the world of light to temporarily hide within the unknown regions.
The deputy president sighed. "Hopefully… this crisis can be solved soon."
He turned around and departed. After the orders were passed down, humanity started their great migration. It was also at this time that the Sin God stood up, seemingly preparing to act.
"Safeguard humanity!"
Chen Feng activated his godly power without hesitation. At a time like this, he had no choice but to use both luck and misfortune together to protect the humans in their migration. However, surprising him, the Sin God did not bother to do anything to the humans. Moreover, he didn't bother doing anything to anyone. His one and only target was the world itself.
Bang!
A terrifying godly power cackled about. The Sin God's huge figure stood loftily amid the blue dome of heaven. One of his hands waved in the air, sending a terrifying godly power rippling out. This godly power ripped the sky apart before finally blasting toward the ground below.
Hum—
The ground trembled. The entire world seemed to be reducing in size beneath the lofty Sin God.
Hum—
Hum—
Hum—
A boundless radiance swirled about. Chen Feng's eyes widened as he witnessed everything. He could clearly see that the Sin God before him was growing in size. To be more precise, he appeared larger from their point of view, so huge that he seemed immovable, so large that they could not even see the end of him. With his godly power, Chen Feng could clearly perceive that the Sin God wasn't the one changing. Rather, they were the ones reducing in size, again and again.
Ultimately, the entire planet was transformed into a single bead. That's right, a single bead.
The bead pulsed with faint godly power. Within, rivers and mountains could be seen, as could continents and oceans. Everything was still the same, preserved within this bead, appearing the same as if it was viewed from outer space.
Chen Feng was dumbstruck. Kong Bai was dumbstruck. Even the deputy president was dumbstruck. They had never seen something so terrifying. They knew why the gods required believers. It was to serve as a supply of godly power. As such, they had guessed that the Sin God would probably attack the humans to demonstrate his prowess. They had put numerous preparations in place for this.
And yet not a single one of their various preparations entailed dealing with the entire world being compressed. The Sin God was not bothered with humanity, nor was he bothered with any resistance. Battle? Nope. He only needed to lift his hand and wave it and the entire world would be reduced to a bead in his hand. Chen Feng and the others chilled as they witnessed this unfold. Was this the strength of a top-tier god?
"Spirit, is there anything we can do?"
Chen Feng pushed his Luck Aura madly. Alas, no solutions could be found. The moment the planet had been reduced into a bead, humanity's fate had been sealed, never to change. So this was Sin God? Even Spirit and the Misfortune Goddess had never imagined that the Ye before them was already this powerful, so powerful that they stood zero chance against him.

"Humans…"
The Sin God chuckled lightly. Looking at the bead in his hand, he proceeded to start pushing the bead toward his eyes.
Chen Feng was shocked. "What are you trying to do?"
Spirit's eyes went wide. "A world into an eye… He is trying to devour the entire human world! He is trying to use this method to transform the entirety of humanity into a resource that will provide him a steady and unending flow of godly power and faith!"
Hum—
Hum—
Boundless black godly power could be clearly seen seeping into the world. That was the power of the Sin God. With this, all of humanity's greed, evil, and desire was evoked. The instant this godly power seeped into the world, chaos erupted.
Hum—
Hum—
Next, a huge amount of godly power started flowing out of the world.
"What is that?"
"The godly power of sin! The Sin God used a small amount of godly power to induce the entire population of this world to start committing sins. From this, a huge amount of the godly power of sin is being generated and supplied to him. The entire world has transformed into his slave."
Bang!
At the center of the human territory, a huge pitch-black sculpture descended. That was the sculpture of the Sin God, signifying the end of humanity.
Hum—
The entire human world had actually transformed into a bead that had subsequently transformed into the Sin God's eye. One could even clearly see the numerous landscapes within the Sin God's eye.
Hum—
Hum—
The entire world started rotating, seemingly searching for the most fitting position to settle itself into the Sin God's eye. Chen Feng chilled. Through his godly power, he could clearly sense the never-ending flow of godly power from this bead that was subsequently pouring into the Sin God. As of now, this world was like a seed pulsing with a never-ending supply of power for the Sin God.
The human world would not be destroyed, as the Sin God would not allow it. However, as Chen Feng looked at the world ridden with sin, he wondered if this was still the Genetic Era he knew. Humanity was finished, and he could only watch on helplessly. He couldn't even put forth any sort of resistance, since he was too weak.
In this situation where the powers of luck and misfortune couldn't achieve anything, it would be a joke to hope that Chen Feng's own strength would be capable of contending against this Sin God.
"Spirit…" Chen Feng was hoping that his Luck Aura could still do something. Alas, Spirit could only shake her head. The Sin God's excessive strength had reduced all probabilities into nothing but a joke.
Ka! Ka!
The bead's rotation was slowing down. The godly power of sin still poured out unceasingly. At this time, the entire world slowed down, as it seemed to have finally found a fitting position to settle itself in.
Hum—
The godly power started consolidating as everything seemed to start calming down. The border at the edges of the world became distinct. Chen Feng knew that this was the prelude for the full integration of the human world into the Sin God. When the border fully solidified, this world would completely become part of the Sin God, becoming a world within his eye.
Suddenly, Kong Bai pulled at Chen Feng. "Go. We must leave."
A battle at this level was not one they could get involved in. The only thing they could do was flee before the entire world was fully locked down.
"This world… has to suffer such a fate?" Chen Feng muttered.
"The world will not be destroyed. So long as the Sin God remains alive, he will not allow this world to be destroyed. However, to generate the godly power of sin for him, the entire world will be filled with slaughter and sin…" Qin Hai sighed. "Humanity shall enter the darkest of ages."
"The darkest of ages?" Chen Feng muttered. He looked at the world before him, looking on as the humans, who had finally obtained peace after great difficulty, started killing each other again. Suddenly, he asked, "Spirit… do you trust me?"
"Huh?" Without hesitation, Spirit replied, "Yes!"
Chen Feng gazed at this world silently. "I will return again."
"I will most definitely return! Before I return, I hope you can protect this world… At the very least, protect those you are capable of protecting. Allow those people a lifeline amid all this madness. That is all I ask of you."
As Chen Feng spoke, a stone hovered out of his hand, flickering with the glow of the Luck Goddess.
Spirit laughed bitterly. "I don't know if I can do that." She had zero confidence, as the opponent this time was the Sin God, and this was a world within his body.
"Therefore, allow her to assist you." Chen Feng's other hand stretched out, the Misfortune Pen hovering out of his hand.
"I hope you can assist Spirit…"
"She will help those that require help. As for you… Try your best to stop those damnable evildoers from bringing disaster to others, even if this is now a world of sin. My only hope is that when I return, this world will still exist. After all, in this world, there are still people with kindness in them."
Hum—
The Misfortune Pen started glowing brightly.
Spirit looked at Chen Feng solemnly. "I will be waiting for you."
"Go!" Chen Feng shut his eyes slowly.
Hum—
Noiselessly, the Fate Stone departed his body and the Misfortune Pen vanished. Two gods that had yet to fully recover slowly fused with the world. The faint radiance of their godly powers slowly dispersed, noiselessly influencing this world without being detected by the Sin God.
Ka! Ka!
It was at this time that the rotation of the world became slower and slower. Gradually, the bead settled within the Sin God's body. Slowly… slowly…
With a loud boom.
Bang!
At the instant of the loud boom, Kong Bai grabbed Qin Hai and Chen Feng. "Now!"
Swish!
The three of them vanished. Instantly, the entire world trembled, and the Sin God's eyes shone brightly. When he opened his eyes, what he saw was an unending supply of godly power from the human world. As for that particular human? Chen Feng? What did he count as? All along, the Sin God had never been bothered about him. Even several thousand gods were nothing but bugs for him, let alone a mere mortal.
For him, a single wave of his hand was sufficient to make the entire human world his. To be more precise, all the life-forms of the Genetic Era were now his.
"…"
The Forest Goddess watched on silently. She wanted to ask about Chen Feng, as she was still worried about that fellow. However, as she looked at the radiant Sin God, suddenly, she had a feeling that inquiring about a weak mortal would in itself be an act of insult to the Sin God. Since everything was already a foregone conclusion, what was the point of asking about Chen Feng? He was but a mere mortal.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Numerous gods appeared behind the Sin God. These were the final 100 surviving gods from earlier. Ultimately, they had not had the courage to battle the Sin God and had opted to submit to him. This would be the era of the Sin God.
The Sin God waved his hand. "Go." The humans and ancients would belong to him alone. As for those unintelligent animals and mutated beasts, they were given as believers to the gods that had submitted to him.
"Yes."
The gods saluted him deferentially before leaving. They started traversing the whole world, reining in their believers.
"Almost done," the Sin God said as he looked at the world below him.
Bang!
He waved his hand. The ground started trembling. With the humans and the Genetic Era out of the way, this world now belonged to him alone. Within this world, too many gods were sealed, including those gods who had once battled for him.
"Awaken…" he muttered.
Bang!
Countless divine beams surged out. Finally, this planet had once again returned to the Primordial Era, returning to the era of gods. As for the humans, ancients, and the other intelligent life-forms, they were all contained within the Sin God's eyes. They were still within their respective cities, which had seemingly not changed. They were killing each other, fighting constantly, generating an unending supply of the godly power of sin.

Chapter 749: New Era
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Within a certain forest, numerous bizarre humanoid life-forms were wandering around. Just earlier, a black streak had descended from the sky and landed somewhere, destroying a huge amount of their food in the process.
"Be careful. We don't know what species that is..."
The few humanoid creatures approached cautiously. They saw a figure lying on the ground. Around that figure was a crater, and the figure was pulsing with an extremely terrifying majestic aura.
The humanoid creatures trembled.
"This appearance... Is this a god?"
The other creatures exchanged glances.
"This must be a god!"
"What should we do?"
If this was some ordinary species, they would directly tie it up to be eaten. But from the looks of this and the faint trace of godly power, they were being told that this was a god. Even if this was the weakest of gods, a god was still not something they could contend against.
"Br-bring him back."
"In any case, we lack a guardian god."
"What if he harbors evil designs?"
"Do we have any other options?"
Everyone sank into silence at this question. This was an almighty god. Even if he was presently injured, the moment he woke up, he would definitely be able to figure out what had happened. If they did anything disrespectful, their entire tribe would have to suffer the wrath of a god.
Soon, the god was carried back carefully. Theirs was a rather weak tribe, with a population around one thousand. The god was placed in the largest building they had. Carefully, they attended to the god, awaiting his awakening.
Every single day, there were some life-forms kneeling down and praying to this god. They believed that this god would most definitely be able to feel their sincerity. This continued on for a long time. One month later, just as they were starting to believe that this god would forever remain in slumber, the god's hand moved lightly.
"He woke up!"
"This is too good!"
...
At this time, Chen Feng was waking up from a long darkness. His memories were still paused at the final moment when Kong Bai had taken both him and Qin Hai and transmigrated, with the Luck Goddess blessing their transmigration with the last of her godly power. Everything after that, he knew nothing about. As for Kong Bai and Qin Hai, they had been separated during the chaos. Their present locations were unknown. That last vestige of the Luck Goddess's godly power had only been sufficient to assist them in a single transmigration.
Where is this? Chen Feng started kneading his aching head before his gaze landed on numerous horrified expressions.
Hum—
The power within him instantly converged. If not for the lack of killing intent, he probably would have probably attacked directly. The years of tempering he had gone through had proven a great help in calming him down in such a situation.
Shua! Shua!
He swept his gaze through these people. With great speed, he analyzed what he was seeing. A building... Monkeys... No, people wearing clothing made of tree leaves… Chen Feng had a pensive look as he analyzed his surroundings.
These creatures all knelt down in excitement when they saw him waking up.
"Exalted lord god, you are finally awake."
"God..."
Chen Feng had a pensive look. In short, these creatures thought he was a god and had thus rescued him? Why was that? Oh, right, because of the lingering trace of the Luck Goddess's aura. Naturally, that aura had only been present during the transmigration. As for now, Chen Feng cast his senses inward and confirmed that the aura was no longer there.
To protect the human world from destruction, Chen Feng had left the godly power of luck and misfortune there in hopes of leaving a lifeline. As of now, he was but a common mortal. Naturally, he could not let these people that had rescued him know this.
Although they all appeared kind, Chen Feng was sure that the moment they found him useless, they would turn on him without hesitation. These people he was facing… seemed like humans yet not like humans… They seemed like monkeys yet not like monkeys...
They seemed like a life-form that was half human and half monkey, that was capable of speech, that had knowledge of simple tools, that possessed great strength, and that had banded together, becoming a single tribe. They were an intelligent life-form… that had mistaken Chen Feng for a god. That was because of the trace of godly power he'd had on him when he had first arrived. They seemed to have an intense reverence toward gods and seemed incredibly receptive toward the idea of gods.
What did this prove? This proved that he had arrived on a world where plenty of gods were around. What was this place? Chen Feng was curious. He gazed at the sky. There, faint godly power could be sensed. The air of this world was pervaded with a familiar power.
Chen Feng raised his head, and as he saw the power pervading the air, he laughed, as there was no longer any need to guess. He could see for himself that in the sky was a huge shining figure: the figure of the Sin God, Ye. It turned out that he was still on a world ruled by Ye.
"I am still on the human world?"
Chen Feng's heart was filled with doubt. No, the entire human world had obviously transformed into the Sin God's eyeball. With the assistance of the Luck Goddess, they had definitely left the planet via transmigration. However, where had they transmigrated to? From the point in time when the Sin God had been birthed until the point in time when the entire world had been conquered by him, everything had been locked. Even Kong Bai had no hope of penetrating that timeline.
If so… the only place he could have reached was the future. That was the only place they could have reached through transmigration.
"What year is this?" Chen Feng asked calmly. This was a question he had come up with after confirming that it would not cast any suspicion on him.
"Year 12 of the Sin calendar," one of the monkeys answered.
Year 12...
Chen Feng's heart trembled. So he had transmigrated 12 years into the future? Since this place was using the Sin calendar, this era was definitely ruled by the Sin God. Indeed, the moment the Sin God had returned, he had conquered the entire world. Chen Feng had thoroughly been defeated. With his weak self, he had stood against the gods and had finally suffered complete defeat.
In truth, regardless of who the enemy had been, his plan had been correct. His idea of throwing all the gods away had been correct. The only reason he had been defeated was because he was too weak, so weak that the Sin God wasn't even bothered to do anything specifically to him.
He smiled mockingly. "Should I rejoice in this?" He was sure that if the Sin God had paid any sort of attention to him, he would never have escaped. Even with Kong Bai's transmigration ability, it would still have been impossible. Alas, the Sin God had not cared. Because he was too weak, the humans were damned. Yet because he was a weak human, he had also survived. How lamentable.
"Sin God..."
Chen Feng gazed at the sky. There, the will unique to the Sin God rained down, pervading the entirety of this world. This was still the same planet, yet this was also a world where all intelligent life-forms, including the humans and the planet itself, had been conquered by the Sin God, a world that had once again returned to the Primordial Era. One could say that this was a different kind of Primordial Era, an era where all life-forms had gained intelligence.
During the era of the Sin God, they had all awakened their intelligence. Nearly everyone was a citizen of the Sin God, even if some believed in different gods. Here, the Sin God was no different than the Creation God. This was 12 years after the Sin God fully conquered this world.
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. "Sin God, huh..." He had promised Spirit that he would most certainly return. The Luck Goddess and Misfortune Goddess were both propping up the entirety of that world in secret for him, leaving behind numerous lifelines. He had to return to that world as soon as possible.
Ka!
He clenched his fists as he vowed inwardly. Right at this instant, the ground trembled lightly. As the monkeys noticed this, an expression of delight appeared in their eyes.
Bang! Bang!
The earth trembled. A huge monkey appeared from the forest. This monkey was five meters tall. Carrying his prey, he slowly came to the entrance of the village before suddenly stopping his steps.
"Mhm?" His pair of huge golden eyes landed on Chen Feng, filled with killing intent. "Who are you?"

Chapter 750: Godhood
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"This is an unrecovered god," one monkey said.
The huge monkey sneered. "God?" He was only at the peak of the awakened realm. However, he could still see that this weakling before him had absolutely no godly power about him. As for his close resemblance to the gods…
"This must be an impersonator. Where is your godly power?" the huge monkey said with a sonorous voice.
"Huh? A few days ago, he still had godly power."
A few monkeys scratched their heads in confusion.
The huge monkey snorted. "Hmph!"
Bang!
A formidable power started converging in his hands. This was a tribe known as the herculean apes. Each of them had formidable strength. They had awakened their intelligence along with the rise of the Sin God. Unfortunately, they had yet to obtain their very own guardian god. Without their own god, they could not resonate. And so long as they could not resonate, their tribe would forever unable to enter the resonance realm.
As such, even though this huge monkey here was much stronger than other regular awakened ones, he was still stuck in the awakened realm. They of the herculean-apes bloodline had been searching for a god for a long time. Alas, in this era where too many gods were dead, they had failed to find a god willing to accept them. Even so, that did not signify that they were a tribe anyone could make a fool out of.
"This is already the third scammer we have encountered this month, right?" The huge monkey was furious.
Bang!
His powerful attack started to descend.
"Level 10 awakened!"
Chen Feng sank into a solemn mood as he saw this attack. No, this was not merely a level 10 awakened. This fellow's strength had far surpassed a regular peak awakened one. He was several times more powerful than one, and with his terrifying strength, he was capable of delivering a crushing defeat to everyone in the awakened realm.
Chen Feng's instinctive reaction was to unleash his ability. However, he kept that on hold.
Peak… awakened realm?
Suddenly, Chen Feng's eyes started to dart around.
Bang!
The peak-awakened attack slammed toward him. Lightly, Chen Feng held his hand out and pointed at the huge fist.
Bang!
A dreadful power surged out. Instantly, that huge monkey was blasted somewhere 100 meters away, leaving behind a long mark on the ground from the drag. The sight was truly rather alarming.
"You…"
The huge monkey dared not believe this. This weak monkey-like life-form before him had actually blocked his attack with a single finger? In truth, even Chen Feng himself was alarmed. This feeling… Something seemed wrong. Chen Feng's eyes gleamed at a certain realization.
When the huge monkey's attack had reached him, Chen Feng had been able to sense how powerful the attack was. That was why he had counterattacked without hesitation. Never had he expected… Chen Feng's heart thumped rapidly. In the awakened realm, the maximum level was 10. So long as one reached level 10, one would be able to resonate with a godly power and enter the resonance realm.
As for those without a god, like these monkeys here, they would be stuck in this realm forever. Even if this tribe of herculean apes had inborn godly power, they were still incapable of ascending into the resonance realm. Yet Chen Feng's attack earlier had been equivalent to the attack of a level 25 awakened, if such a level existed.
"How is this possible?"
Chen Feng felt doubtful. He was clear on his own strength. In fact, he was only at level 5 awakened. This was his current level. Even after the multiple huge battles he had participated in, he had only reached level 5 awakened. He had been relying too much on his godly power, resulting in the negligence of his awakened level.
Even now, he had only unleashed his very own strength due to a lack of godly power. However, why had he unleashed an attack with the might of a level 25 awakened while he was still a level 5 awakened?
Chen Feng was confused. Apart from certain tribes with innate abilities, the strength of awakened ones was rather consistent in general. Level 10 awakened would generally be around 10 times stronger than level 1 awakened. Furthermore, this was the limit of the realm. The only reason this huge monkey was stronger than other level 10 awakened ones was because of the innate strength his tribe was born with. Thanks to that, he was able to unleash the might equivalent to a level 20 awakened. And yet, he had been instantly defeated by Chen Feng with a single finger.
"Are… you… a real god?"
The huge monkey was shaken. He had not sensed any godly power from the attack earlier. This showed that this life-form before him had merely used his own strength to casually point his finger and, with that finger, the huge monkey had nearly been killed. Such a feat was something even a resonator could not accomplish, since the only superiority a resonator had over an awakened one was the godly power they had at their disposal. This fellow before them… was a god!
"Nope." Chen Feng turned around and started to leave. Since his strength had recovered, he had no intention of being the leader of a bunch of monkeys. What he wanted to do now was ascertain the reason he was so powerful, then think of a way to rescue humanity from the eyeball of the Sin God.
Left?
The herculean apes watched his departure with disappointment.
Suddenly, the huge monkey asked, "In that case... are you interested in ascending to godhood?"
Bang!
At this question, Chen Feng's heart shuddered. Godhood? He stopped his steps. From the huge monkey's solemn expression, he did not seem to be kidding around.
Chen Feng concentrated his gaze as he asked, "You have a way to achieve that?"
The huge monkey nodded resolutely. "Mhm." Shortly after, he paused and spoke solemnly. "To be precise, all life-forms are capable of ascension. However, the difficulty level is too high. I once attempted to do so. However, I failed. But if you were the one to attempt it..." The huge monkey's gaze burned.
Oh?
Chen Feng's curiosity was piqued. Thanks to the huge monkey's explanation, he finally gained true understanding of this new era. This was the era of the Sin God alone. After imprisoning the humans as a supply of godly power for himself, he had no longer had any misgivings and had directly transformed the entire world.
The entire planet had been reverted back to the Primordial Era. Even the starry sky was no longer the same. This planet's sky was forever shrouded by the godly power of sin. The entire sky was blotted with dots of light. These dots of light were not as dazzling as the stars that once spread across this sky. However, each of these dots of light was akin to a seed waiting to be unearthed.
These were the seeds of godhood! This was the handiwork of the Sin God. All the dead gods were hung in the sky, allowing all life-forms to comprehend the power contained within. Anyone who gained godly power from the comprehension would be able to reach godhood immediately.
This was an era where anyone could become a god. During the Primordial Era, there had been numerous gods. The ones that had awakened during the Genetic Era were less than even 10 percent of the total gods that had once existed. This small amount of gods had subsequently been tricked by Chen Feng into entering the alien world.
Even with the Sin God waking gods up without stop, he had ultimately only managed to awaken a pitiful 3,000 gods. Moreover, these gods were the incredibly weak ones, those so weak that they had failed to awaken during the Genetic Era. As such, the comprehensive strength of this world was way too weak.
That was what had led to the Sin God changing the laws of the world, opening up the path of ascension. So long as one was strong enough, anyone could enter godhood, becoming a god.
"Godhood…"
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes. He had a wondrous feeling. Even without the Luck Goddess helping him, everything had still progressed so smoothly. It was precisely due to him causing so many gods to fall with his scam that the Sin God had done this, as the gods had been weakened too greatly.
This guy…
Chen Feng had a pensive look.
In the past, the Sin God had wanted to conquer the entire world. After his defeat at the hands of the Creation God, he had opted to create his own twin-horns world instead. However, that world had been too weak. As such, he had ultimately set his sights on this world. Ultimately, the entire world had been annexed. The world that the Creation God had used his own life to improve had been nothing but a gift to the Sin God.
Was the present Sin God imitating the Creation God in his quest to make this world stronger? Nope. The only reason he was even trying to awaken these gods or to create more gods was because he could not fully operate this world by himself.
In fact, this was quite simple. If the twin-horns world was a small company and the Sin God was the chairman, then the current Sin God was like someone who had suddenly been hired to be the chairman of a major international company. Was he truly qualified for this new task? Could he truly perform satisfactorily?
This was the problem the Sin God had encountered. His understanding of this world was far below the Creation God's. That coupled with the fall of so many gods had caused the Sin God to only barely be able to keep this world operational. Three thousand gods was far too low an amount to assist him in operating this world.
As such, he required more gods. It would be even better if he could gather a hundred thousand gods, like the Creation God had done in the past. This would guarantee the perfect operation of his world. Only at that time would the Sin God be truly considered to have fully conquered this world.
"Godhood, eh?"
Chen Feng lifted his head. Suddenly, he had a feeling that the sky up there was infinitely close to him.

Chapter 751: Fake Nascent Soul
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Within the forest, Chen Feng was still trying to figure out the source of his increased strength. He did not believe that he his strength would increase for no apparent reason, even more so when the prowess he displayed did not conform to the level he was actually at. There seemed to be a problem somewhere.
Bang!
He punched out. A huge tree immediately collapsed. As the huge monkey watched on from a distance, his heart trembled in fear. This tree was no normal tree; its roots were several dozen meters in length, and it had faint godly power. As such, this tree was incomparably firm, yet this very tree had been crushed by Chen Feng with a single punch.
"Twenty-five times..." he muttered inwardly. So long as he fully exerted himself, he could unleash a power around 25 times that of a level 1 awakened.
This strength...
He was still analyzing this newfound strength of his. There were 10 levels in the awakened realm. While in the resonance realm, one would begin to have access to godly power, also similarly split to ten levels. Interestingly, though, by virtue of godly power alone, a mere level 1 resonator would be around a hundred times stronger than a level 1 awakened.
In a situation where neither the disparity in talent nor the type of godly power was taken into consideration, the pure, raw power of a level 1 resonator would be a hundred times greater than that of a level 1 awakened. This was proof of how powerful godly power was.
This was also why all resonators looked down on awakened ones. Without godly power, awakened ones were nothing but bugs. The maximum limit of the awakened realm was only level 10. Even the more talented ones would only be somewhat stronger. They would still be too far from a level 1 awakened. Yet here was Chen Feng, whose punch had unleashed a might equivalent to level 25 awakened.
Suddenly, Chen Feng recalled something. "The last time I tested it, my punch unleashed a might of a level 9 awakened."
Back in the Genetic Union, he had once tested his combat prowess and had nearly destroyed the replacement equipment the Genetic Union had prepared for him. At that time, he had still been a level 3 awakened.
Hold on... If as a level 3 awakened he could unleash the might of a level 9, and at level 5 he could unleash the might of a level 25... This seemed to be something that could be solved with math? To the power of two? Chen Feng found this inconceivable. So it turned out that his attacks would unleash a might equal to the square of whatever level he was? Why was that?
Once again, Chen Feng punched out. At this moment, he could seemingly see the miniature person within him performing the same action. When he punched out, the miniature person punched out as well.
Bang!
Yet another tree collapsed.
"Is it because of you?" Finally, Chen Feng understood. His unique prowess was due to this miniature person within him. This was in fact another him, a Chen Feng that had been conceived by Luck Aura. If this miniature person could truly allow his attack to be amplified like so...
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed as he thought of something. If, at level 5 awakened, he could unleash the might of a level 25 awakened, what if he was a level 10 awakened? Would he be able to defeat the level 1 resonators even without godly power? Would he be able to surmount the limit placed by godly power?
He was overwhelmed with emotions as he realized this. Even in this era, gods were still very rare. One look at the herculean apes and their lack of a god even after so long was enough to ascertain this fact. Naturally, due to Chen Feng's unique identity, he was someone that would not be able to resonate with any gods.
Therefore, he could only rely on himself. As for ascending to godhood, such a thing was still rather far away from him at present. From what the huge monkey had said, if one wanted to become a god, one would have to traverse numerous dangerous places to obtain the seed of a god. To achieve that, one would require extraordinary strength.
Therefore, this was not part of Chen Feng's considerations for now. At present, it would be more reliable to first increase his strength.
Power of two...
Chen Feng clenched his fists tightly, eager to test out his theory.
"Are you truly not a god?" the huge monkey asked as tree after tree went down.
"Nope," Chen Feng answered.
The huge monkey smiled bitterly. "Fine." Truthfully, the idea of a mortal displaying such a performance was much scarier than the idea of an unrecovered god doing the same.
"Do you guys have anything one can use to increase one's strength?" Chen Feng paused slightly before continuing, "For example, drugs or medicine or anything like that? Since you guys are all awakened ones, you should have something like that, right?"
"Yes, we do," the huge monkey said. However, after a slight pause, he added, "We used to."
Chen Feng raised his brow."Oh?"
"In this forest, there is a region inhabited by a certain species of fruit trees. The fruits of these trees were all nourished by godly power, and after consuming one, one's strength will increase. It is also a fruit all of us need to take at a certain point in our lives. However, this year, that territory was conquered by the Grasshorde Tribe. In fact, they are weaker than us. However, after becoming the believers of a god, they obtained godly power. As such..."
The mere thought of this caused the huge monkey to gnash his teeth in anger.
"Is there any way to solve this?"
The huge monkey looked at Chen Feng with anticipation. "Fight them!" In his opinion, with Chen Feng's formidable prowess, he was capable enough to lead them and regain the lost territory.
"Mhm..." Chen Feng pondered shortly before saying, "I can't beat them."
The huge monkey: "..."
Chen Feng shrugged. "I am truly not their match." From what this huge monkey had said, the enemy seemed to have been a weakling in the past, with their top combat power being at around level 10 awakened. Naturally, with this monkey's battle prowess being equivalent to level 20 awakened, they had been too weak. However, now that they had entered the resonance realm, this monkey was no longer their opponent. So long as one had godly power, even a level 1 resonator would be a hundred times stronger than a level 1 awakened. How could he hope to defeat such an opponent?
Chen Feng shook his head. "I might be able to defeat them sometime in the future, but not now. I have yet to fully recover my strength. For now, I still need to verify some things."
"Is that why you require something capable of increasing your strength?" Finally, the huge monkey understood the reason for Chen Feng's question.
"If it's only an increase in strength..." The huge monkey pondered before saying, "Will a temporary increase work? I know of something capable of providing a temporary boost in strength."
Chen Feng's eyes shone. "Yes, that will do."
"All right. Please wait a moment." As he finished his words, the monkey left. Shortly after, he returned with a blue medicinal herb in his hand.
"This is something that received the nourishment of godly power. After consuming it, one can obtain a temporary boost in strength," the monkey explained.
"Excellent."
After checking and confirming that this herb was fine, Chen Feng immediately took it.
Bang!
A powerful force erupted within him.
Bang! Bang!
A surging warm current provoked his body, causing his body to unleash an even stronger strength, pushing Chen Feng from level 5 awakened to level 6.
Bang! Bang!
The medicine was still in effect, pushing Chen Feng's strength onward. Alas, just as it was about to reach level 7, the medicinal effect started to weaken before slowly vanishing. At this moment, Chen Feng's strength started decreasing as well. If this continued, he would most probably revert back to level 5 awakened before long. This "temporary" was much shorter than he had imagined.
If so, he would have to test it now. Without hesitation, he unleashed all the strength available to him and punched out.
Bang!
A mighty force blasted out. Chen Feng could clearly feel that, in a mysterious manner, the power both he and the miniature person were unleashing had somehow converged together, forming a perfect circle.
Bang!
His energy blasted out, destroying a row of trees before him. The huge monkey watched on in horror. He could feel that at present, Chen Feng was much stronger than he had been before, completely unlike the increase of one mere level. This... was equivalent to level 36 awakened! Chen Feng was completely enthralled, as he had also confirmed that his conjecture was correct.

Chapter 752: Revisiting the Old Profession
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
It was now confirmed that his strength was really the square of his awakened level. He only needed to urge the miniature person within him to perform the same action as him and he would be able to unleash power surpassing his imagination. But then, what exactly was this?
Chen Feng himself was unclear. He had once conducted a study of other awakened ones and had concluded that this was not something all awakened ones possess. However, what he was sure of was the fact that this miniature person was not an external power like luck or misfortune. Rather, this power was uniquely his.
"Excellent."
He was overwhelmed by emotions at this realization. He would have to think of how to increase his strength. As of now, his strength had already decreased from the temporary boost. What that huge monkey called "temporary" was truly excessively temporary, as it had only lasted three seconds.
A true man, mused Chen Feng at the idea of three seconds being "temporary."
By the side, the monkey was somewhat dumbstruck. He looked at the sole remaining herb in his hand before looking at the row of destroyed trees. Since when was this herb so powerful? He seemed to recall that this herb would only provide an increase of a single level?
Why did it feel like this Chen Feng had obtained an increase of around 10 levels? He could not make sense of what he was looking at. This was like someone eating garlic chives in the hope of providing some nourishment to one's body, yet they obtained the effect of Viagra.
Chen Feng: "…"
The gaze with which the monkey was staring at him caused him to be somewhat dumbstruck.
"This thing only lasts three seconds?" he asked as he grabbed the other herb from the monkey's hand.
"Mhm." The monkey contemplated shortly before gloomily saying, "If it was something good, it would have been taken by the Grasshorde Tribe as well…"
Chen Feng chuckled. True. By now, he had a somewhat rough understanding of these two tribes. Both tribes were essentially monkeys, and they were always engaged in a struggle for resources due to their close proximity to each other. It was natural for them to be mortal enemies.
"If you want to increase your strength, you have to destroy the Grasshorde Tribe." The monkey confidently continued, "The resources they have plundered from us will be sufficient for you to gain three levels."
Three levels…
Chen Feng's eyes burned as he heard this. Three levels… would allow him to reach level 8 awakened. Eight to the power of two… Mhm… Chen Feng licked his lips in anticipation. Alas, before that, they would have to first deal with the chief of the Grasshorde Tribe, the level 1 resonator. Chen Feng cooled his head shortly after remembering this. The future was indeed beautiful. However, this all required that he first keep a low profile and grow.
Chen Feng glanced over at the huge monkey. "Don't keep urging me on. If I can defeat them, I will most certainly attack. However, you yourself are also clear on the strength of a level 1 resonator. That is a level that is even stronger than me."
"Yeah," the huge monkey answered sadly. It seemed like this Chen Feng's strength was truly not sufficient to achieve that. Resonator… Godly power… Were they truly hopeless against one?
He was clear that this time, with the resources plundered from them, those weaklings at the Grasshorde Tribe would be able to develop rapidly. As for them, their growth would be stunted. Slowly but surely, they would no longer be able to contend against the Grasshorde Tribe. Moreover, there was even a possibility that, after some time, they would be totally slaughtered by the Grasshorde Tribe.
As he thought of this, the huge monkey clenched his fists in indignation. By the side, Chen Feng was not bothered. Even if the herculean apes were in a bad position, he could not afford to listen to the huge monkey and go throw his life away. He had to first guarantee that he had sufficient strength before he could proceed.
However…
Chen Feng looked at the herb in his hand, deep in thought. In this era, a lot of things had obtained the nourishment of godly power. As such, they all contained unique power. This was why the awakened ones of this era were able to continue growing. The reason for this reaction of Chen Feng's wasn't the power of this herb. Rather, it was because this herb was extremely familiar.
Chen Feng fixed his gaze on this herb. Even if it was glowing and pulsing with faint godly power, if these "special effects" were removed, wasn't this the blue-leafed grass? This was an herb Chen Feng had once used when he had first become a gene producer. In fact, this herb had been the main ingredient of a certain gene reagent capable of providing a small boost in one's strength, an herb that would be normally used by the weaker ones when they were still at their starting point.
And now… Chen Feng's eyes went wide as he realized something. Level 1 awakened was in fact a rather unique realm. However, there was no doubt that, in this era of gods, the awakened realm was the starting point for everyone. As for this herb? It was evidently also a comparatively weaker herb in this era.
Chen Feng's heart started pounding. If, during the genetic era, this herb had been used to produce gene reagents that increased beginners' strength, what if this current herb, nourished by godly power, was used to produce a gene reagent? At this realization, Chen Feng's lips went dry in excitement. Blue-leafed grass! Gene production! At this moment, everything seemed to have become clear.
Back then, the growth of gene production had been stunted the moment humanity had reached the awakened realm. It was through great effort that Chen Feng had opened up a new path to enable gene producers to keep growing. But what if the stunt had not been due to gene production in itself? What if the problem had in fact been the materials?
What if those materials had all received the nourishment of godly power? Would they now prove useful for awakened ones? Chen Feng was extremely agitated. Gene production had always been his career. Even though he hadn't been involved much in the development of the subsequent new gene production breakthroughs, prior to that, he had mastered nearly all the formulas in existence. Even without Luck Aura, he was still an undisputed grandmaster producer!
"If so… bring it on!"
Chen Feng was filled with expectation. The blue-leafed grass could be used with several supporting materials to produce a low-tier gene reagent. This gene reagent, known as the allida reagent, was capable of providing a temporary boost in combat strength to the user.
As for the reagent's odd name, Chen Feng reasoned that perhaps the creator of this formula had initially set off to create a different formula and had ended up with a battle-type reagent instead.
"Hopefully you won't disappoint."
Chen Feng's gaze became sharp. Next, he got the monkeys to gather all the herbs in the vicinity. Ultimately, he found sufficient herbs to serve as substitutes for the lacking herbs in the original formula. Moreover, using these materials, the produced reagent could be even better than the original version.
Hum—
Chen Feng started gene production. Unexpectedly, though, he had only just gotten started, yet the surging power contained within the herbs had already caused him to despair. A huge amount of time had to be spent before he could finally suppress that terrifying power.
"These materials…"
Chen Feng took in a deep breath in shock. It was at this moment that he gained a clearer understanding of this era.
Even if he was a grandmaster producer, he still had to exercise caution. This was not due to any mistakes he might commit during the production process. Rather, he had to maintain control over these materials. Fortunately, the allida reagent was ultimately a rather weak reagent. Shortly after, Chen Feng was done with his production.
The produced reagent was a glowing light-blue liquid that was presently cupped within a leaf. At this point, Chen Feng faced a new problem. This place did not seem like a place with any reagent bottles. As such, he could not even store the reagent he had produced.
Chen Feng sighed. "Only leaves?"
"Mhm," the monkey answered. "These are also the leaves we use to wipe our butts."
Chen Feng was rendered speechless. "It has been hard on you guys."
Forget it. He would first test the effects of the reagent. Without a reagent bottle, this reagent could not be preserved anyway. He might as well take it immediately.
Gulp.
Next, a blazing source of power seemed to pour into his body.
Bang!
Instantly, a terrifying aura erupted. Awe-inspiring power erupted from Chen Feng. The berserk aura caused even the herculean apes around him to repeatedly fall back in alarm. And then… nothing. The eruption suddenly stopped.
"A fake drug?"
Everyone was somewhat dumbfounded. No, that was not the case. The huge monkey studied Chen Feng and noted that although that berserk aura was gone, Chen Feng's strength was higher than before, even if not by much.
Hum—
Chen Feng stretched his hand out and immersed himself in his newfound strength: level 10 awakened. That's right. In a split second, the allida reagent had granted him an increase of five levels. For those in the awakened realm, this reagent would enable the user to crush all opponents.
Naturally, the effect might not be as pronounced for those that were already strong to begin with, such as the huge monkey. After all, he already had the combat power of a level 25 awakened. A five-level increase was but a quarter of his total strength. Yet for Chen Feng, his strength had been directly doubled. No, to be precise, his level had doubled. As for his actual combat power…
Shua!
His eyes gleamed coldly.
Bang!
He punched out without hesitation.
Formidable power surged out. Within him, the miniature person did the same. Instantly, the power blasted out.
Bang!
A terrifying power swept out, causing all the trees in front of him to shake violently. Around him, all the monkeys were startled. In all their life, they had never seen these sturdy trees shake…
Shua! Shua!
The trees shook violently. Shortly after, the shaking stopped.
"Huh?"
The huge monkey scratched his head in confusion. That was because, despite the violent shaking, the trees had not been destroyed. This… What was going on? All the other monkeys were similarly puzzled. One ought to know that, initially, Chen Feng had been able to blast a tree apart with a single punch. Yet now, after consuming that weird liquid, he had merely massaged the trees instead of destroying them?
As such, this liquid's function was to make one's attack look way cooler while reducing the might? This was the conclusion all the monkeys reached. Right at this moment, though, a cool breeze swept past the forest. Almost instantly, all the trees were reduced to ashes that dispersed in the air and waffled away along with that breeze.
"Hiss—"
All the monkeys hissed in shock. As for the huge monkey, his eyes went wide. He was unable to believe what he was seeing.

Chapter 753: The Battle for Resources
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
How powerful! The herculean apes were all startled by this display of power. This liquid was actually capable of providing such a huge boost in strength? They all focused on the remaining blue liquid, their gazes burning. At this time, Chen Feng was inhaling deeply and immersing himself in the earlier feeling of strength. Level 1 resonance!
That's right. The attack he had unleashed had reached level 1 resonance. However, the resonance realm was a realm for those with access to godly power. For Chen Feng, it would be more apt to say that his attack had reached level 100 awakened. With the allida reagent, he had unleashed power equivalent to a level 100 awakened. How powerful!
The huge monkey's gaze started to burn. "This thing… Let me give it a try." He gulped down the remaining liquid.
Bang!
Within him, a surge of power erupted, causing his blood to boil with excitement. He proceeded to deliver a punch to a random tree around him. The tree proceeded to shake for quite a while before finally falling down. Everyone was speechless when they saw this.
"Only… this little?" The huge monkey was dumbstruck. This was not logical. Why had Chen Feng received such a huge boost while he had received such a little boost? Was he so weak that even that liquid could not prop him up? By the side, Chen Feng was maintaining his calm, as he was still immersed in the feeling of power within him, silently counting the time.
One second…
Two seconds…
Three seconds…
Still active! Chen Feng kept waiting. Five seconds, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, one minute... Only at the third minute mark did his strength start to gradually decrease.
"Three minutes!"
Chen Feng was completed shocked by this discovery. The huge monkey had also realized the same thing. Consuming the blue-leafed grass directly would only yield an active duration of three seconds. Yet after being transformed into this blue liquid by Chen Feng, the duration had increased to three minutes. It was better and lasted longer now.
This was too inconceivable. Something like this… was supposed to be a feat only accomplishable by the gods, right? This Chen Feng fellow had been claiming that he was not a god, yet here he was, doing things that only gods could do! Everyone stared at Chen Feng with burning gazes.
"Don't worry."
Chen Feng observed the huge monkey and waited until the huge monkey's active duration ended as well before concluding the details of this reagent.
--
Name: Allida reagent.
Function: Temporarily increase the user's strength by five awakened levels.
Duration: Three minutes.
--
"Success."
Chen Feng was filled with excitement.
The success of the allida reagent had provided Chen Feng with a pleasant surprise. Gene production was indeed still a feasible route in this era, even if his test had only been verified with a low-tier reagent. As he recalled his experience when producing the gene reagent earlier, he concluded that so long as he controlled the medicinal effect so that it did not explode, he would be able to produce any gene reagents he wished.
One ought to remember that Chen Feng was a grandmaster producer, one who had mastered all production techniques and formulas of that level. Three minutes. In fact, this duration had a deeper meaning to it. That was because, if the duration was only three seconds, it would probably end at the beginning of the fight. As for a duration of three minutes, it could last the entirety of a battle. If one was fierce enough, three minutes would be more than enough time to deal with an enemy. This was a chance for them to deal with the Grasshorde Tribe.
"What do you think?" Without realizing it, the huge monkey was becoming more and more deferential when talking to Chen Feng.
"Start gathering the same herbs for me. I will be producing," Chen Feng said.
"All right."
All the herculean apes were overjoyed to hear this. They started searching the forest frantically, and soon, a huge amount of blue-leafed grass and the subsidiary materials were delivered to Chen Feng.
Chen Feng frowned. "There is still one issue: how to store the reagents. How do you guys normally store liquids?"
"Stone jar," the huge monkey said as he brought Chen Feng to a certain basement. There, a huge stone jar was located. In it was stored their wine.
Chen Feng: "…"
He required something easy to carry around, not something this huge. They couldn't carry a huge stone jar around when fighting the Grasshorde Tribe, right? That would be too ridiculous.
Carry along…
Suddenly, Chen Feng's gaze landed on the collapsed trees from earlier. At the point of incision of the trees, he could see the texture of the woods. They were glossy and sleek. He tried pouring some liquid within and found that not a single drop seeped out. Indeed, this was a tree that had grown under the nourishment of godly power.
"Well, this is it, then," Chen Feng said with a slap to his thigh. Even during the Genetic Era, quite a number of wooden products had been manufactured. And thus the entire herculean apes started working busily. Chen Feng was in charge of producing gene reagents while all the monkeys formally entered the industrial era, starting to manufacture wooden products. To be precise, they were producing wooden bottles.
The bottles produced were all square-shaped, could not store much, and appeared rather stupid. However, each bottle was sufficient to store a portion of liquid sufficient for consumption by a single person. This would be enough for now.
After three days, a great number of gene reagents finished production and were sealed in the bottles. Each of the monkeys had a gene reagent hung on their waist. They were all incomparably excited, as they knew that with this, they were now equipped to challenge the Grasshorde Tribe!
"Do you guys know what we are going to do today?" Chen Feng asked.
"Yes!" All the herculean apes were excited. "We will be taking our resources back!"
"Excellent. Remember, within three minutes, finish everything," Chen Feng said coldly.
All the monkeys were getting agitated. "Yes!"
"Let us set off!" The huge monkey was in high spirits. "Chant our slogan as we march."
"Plunder their resources! Beat their woman! Sleep with the young!" the herculean apes yelled at the top of their lungs.
Chen Feng was somewhat dumbfounded. Something… seemed wrong with this slogan? He had heard similar slogans in the past. At times, these slogans seemed rather villainous, yet they served well to boost morale. However, the contents of this particular slogan seemed somewhat off?
"Don't worry." The huge monkey looked at Chen Feng in reverence. "The prettiest of them will be reserved for you, exalted one."
Chen Feng: "???"
Sleep, your ass! Regardless of how beautiful they are, they are still monkeys, right? Moreover…
"I thought it should be 'sleep with the wives and beat the young'?" Chen Feng asked curiously.
The huge monkey blanked at this suggestion. "Nope. Why would we want to sleep with their wives? Even if they are our archenemy, we cannot do such a thing! Exalted one, you…" He stole a cautious glance at Chen Feng. "So it turns out that you have such a fetish?"
Chen Feng: "…"
Fetish, my ass! What the hell are you monkeys thinking about?
"It is right to sleep with the young, then?" Chen Feng asked with a dark expression.
"That is only natural," the huge monkey answered happily. "Those young ones have yet to obtain a significant other. The Grasshorde Tribe has a higher female population, while our tribe has a higher male population. We are simply a perfect match. Therefore, even if the unmarried ones are still not fully grown into adulthood yet, we can still bring them back to raise them into brides when they grow up."
Chen Feng heaved a sigh of relief. I see.
"But... it is truly immoral to sleep with the wife of another." The huge monkey glanced at Chen Feng cautiously. "If you truly have such a fetish, I know of two beautiful women who are now widows. I wonder if you are interested…"
Chen Feng's expression darkened. "Scram!" What was going on in this fellow's brain?
Soon, they reached the orchard. This had once been the territory of the herculean apes. As such, this place was nearer to their place. When they arrived, they saw that this orchard was presently guarded by a huge number of half-evolved monkeys. Chen Feng noted that, apart from the different fur color, these monkeys were in fact exactly the same as the herculean apes.
"This is the Grasshorde Tribe," the huge monkey said in a low voice.
"Mhm."
Chen Feng gazed over from a distant mountain summit. There were not many people in the orchard. There were about five or six level 5 awakened ones patrolling about. The defense seemed rather lacking, but Chen Feng could sense an austere aura in the air. With the orchard as the center, a whirlpool of austere aura was formed. Nevertheless, it did not matter, as their purpose here was to fight a battle of force.
"Go!" Chen Feng ordered without hesitation.
Shua!
The herculean apes charged into the orchard.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Suddenly, numerous huge figures appeared nearby. At the sight of these newcomers that looked completely different than the members of the Grasshorde Tribe, the huge monkey's face fell. "You guys have actually joined hands with a different tribe?"

Chapter 754: Seize
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
The huge monkey was truly furious with this development. They and the Grasshorde Tribe were enemies and had fur of different colors, yet they were still of the same race. Unexpectedly, they had actually joined hands with a different tribe. Did they not have godly power already? Did they not have a guardian god already? Why was there still a need to join hands with a foreign race? He truly could not understand this.
Chen Feng merely glanced over and did not say anything. In fact, something like this was extremely normal. This was similar to a civil war where one of the sides suddenly called in help from a different country. In Chen Feng's memories, something like this was quite common. For instance, in his previous life, there had been foreigners in the national teams of certain sports, which had truly felt quite odd to him.
A huge green-haired monkey sneered. "Haven't you found one as well?"
"Him?" The huge monkey glanced over at Chen Feng and snorted. "Hmph, he is merely a monkey who shaved all his fur due to a skin disease. That's all."
Chen Feng: "…" What the f*ck? Is this how you monkey folks usually communicate with each other?
He had never expected that even though he had been staying silent, he would still get unjustly ridiculed like this. At this time, as they approached each other, the surrounding monkeys could finally be seen clearly. The Grasshorde Tribe. The reason for them being called this was due to the green hair on their heads, which greatly resembled grass. That was the origin of their name. Furthermore, the piles of grass on their heads seemed to directly correlate with their strength and size.
The stronger they were, the bigger they would be, and the lusher the grass on their head would be. Mhm… For instance, this huge green monkey's head was like a giant bush.
The green monkey coldly said, "I knew you guys would not be able to take this lying down. Therefore, I have been waiting for you guys all along. Today will be the day that everything ends. The herculean apes shall forever disappear from this world."
Shua!
The figures started closing in on them. These newcomers had huge bodies and fierce faces, appearing rather vicious.
"This is the Steelback Tribe," the huge monkey said to Chen Feng.
The Steelback Tribe was a rather powerful tribe that was nearby. They had rough skin, thick flesh, and formidable strength. Their skin was covered in scales, and the strength of the average person in their tribe was level 6 awakened. This tribe was much stronger than the herculean apes, who only averaged level 3. Similarly, the Grasshorde Tribe averaged level 3 as well.
"You are courting death," the huge monkey said with a cold gleam in his eyes. The one and only advantage the Grasshorde Tribe had over them was their resonator chief. As such, their tribe wasn't particularly powerful as a whole. However, their act of asking for help from the Steelback Tribe was no different than courting death. If the huge monkey's memory served right, this Steelback Tribe also had their own guardian god. Were these fellows stupid or something?
"Hehe." The green monkey arrogantly said, "That won't be the case. We both believe in the same god."
The same god!
The huge monkey's heart thumped as he heard this.
"Therefore, you can die in peace now."
At the green monkey's command, the Steelback Tribe and the Grasshorde Tribe moved out at the same time. The huge monkey looked at Chen Feng, seeking his opinion.
"Finish this within three minutes," Chen Feng said coldly. On average, the strength of a level 6 awakened? So what?
Shua!
All the herculean apes opened their bottle at the same time and gulped the reagents down.
Bang!
They erupted with a powerful aura. The herculean apes were rather weak, their tribe averaging level 3 awakened. However, with the allida reagent, they obtained a five-level increase, pushing their strength to a level one could not imagine.
Bang! Bang!
The herculean apes erupted in strength. Instantly, numerous monkeys were blasted away. Even the Steelback Tribe was not a match. As the grasshorde monkeys saw this, they were stupefied. What was going on? The bush on the green monkey's head stood up as he stared in shock at what was unfolding before him. Since when had these herculean apes been so strong?
"Damn it."
He knew that he had to personally make a move now.
"Even if you guys have become stronger by sheer luck…" His eyes gleamed coldly as he finished, "You guys are still not a match for godly power."
Bang!
His godly power poured out. The instant the godly power appeared, his body increased in size as he stepped onto the battlefield.
Bang!
The earth trembled with each step he took. Slowly but surely, the power of a resonator bloomed.
"Die!"
He punched at the huge monkey. Right at this instant, though, a comparatively tiny figure appeared before him and punched out at his fist.
Bang!
A powerful surge of strength slammed into him.
Even with his godly power, he was still pushed several meters backward. He raised his head and looked on in astonishment at the monkey with a skin disease, who was slowly retracting his hand. This fellow… The green monkey's face fell. A resonator? His expression became unsightly as he realized that this huge monkey had actually found an outside resonator to help. However, if this was indeed a resonator, why could he not feel any godly power?
Was this a unique technique? Or perhaps… it was due to the blue liquid they had consumed earlier? Again! The green monkey attacked again, the bush on his head blooming as the intensity of his strength increased.
Bang!
Another punch, and once again, he was pushed back. Chen Feng's eruption to level 10 awakened had given him strength equivalent to a level 100 awakened, giving him the confidence to contend against a level 1 resonator. With pure strength, he faced godly power. In fact, one of the reasons Chen Feng had participated in this battle was so that he could verify his combat power.
Bang! Bang!
The Grasshorde Tribe and the Steelback Tribe were utterly defeated. After all, the green ape had only recently gained godly power. As such, his usage of godly power was still rather crude. How could he compare against Chen Feng? Their strength seemed to be equal, yet he suffered defeat after defeat. Chen Feng did not even need three minutes to defeat him. A minute and a half into the fight, the green monkey was already thoroughly defeated.
"I will definitely return!"
The green monkey could feel that things were getting bad. With a miserable scream, he turned around and started fleeing immediately. As for his underlings, they started fleeing as well upon receiving his command. This decisiveness with which they fled truly caused Chen Feng and the huge monkey to be somewhat dumbfounded. This was especially true for the way those fellows fled. They all dispersed in different directions, some even directly tunneling underground. What in the world?
"Should we give chase?" the huge monkey asked.
Chen Feng shook his head. "There is no need for that." By now, the duration of three minutes had ended. If they gave chase, that would be no different than suicide. If the green monkeys discovered their secret, they might be the ones to suffer defeat in the end.
"Okay." The huge monkey understood. For now, this orchard was the only thing that mattered.
Chen Feng took a look around the orchard. To bait the herculean apes into attacking, the green monkeys hadn't plundered much from this orchard. Most of the fruits were still hanging on the trees.
"Let me pick one for you, exalted one," the huge monkey said emotionally.
"Is this a fruit one can only eat once?" Chen Feng asked with a pensive look.
"Not quite." The huge monkey nodded and explained, "However, only with the first consumption will the effect be more pronounced. With each subsequent consumptions, the effect will slowly decrease by half. In any case, even after eating a bunch of them, one can only obtain a boost of two levels.
Chen Feng looked at him. "I thought you said three levels earlier?"
"Hehe." The monkey scratched his head in an honest manner and said, "I was afraid that you wouldn't agree to come if I did not exaggerate the number."
Chen Feng: "…"
Therefore, Chen Feng had to now focus on increasing the effectiveness of this fruit during the first consumption. In fact, the method of doing so was relatively simple. It could be accomplished with something Chen Feng was extremely skilled in: gene production.
After all, during the Genetic Era, such one-time-use materials had been rather common. As such, Chen Feng was able to easily find some suitable formulas that were immediately ready to use after some minor adjustments. For Chen Feng, this wasn't hard. And next… what was left was to test the formula.

Chapter 755: Level 100 Awakened
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Producing and failing. These two were the most basic steps involved in gene production. After ten-odd failures, Chen Feng finally succeeded in producing a bright-red liquid. From the look of it, this liquid seemed like it would have a better effect than consuming the fruit raw.
"What is this fruit's name?"
"Aphrodisiac fruit," the huge monkey said proudly. "I am the one who named this fruit."
Chen Feng's face darkened. Aphrodisiac? How weak was this monkey, exactly, for him to be able to relate everything to libido? Chen Feng gave the monkey a dubious look.
"I naturally do not need help in that department." The huge monkey slapped his chest and continued, "But this fruit really does have such an effect to it as well."
"…" Chen Feng understood after pondering the matter. Since this fruit was capable of boosting one's overall strength, naturally, everything about a person would be boosted, including their libido. That was only natural. However, the name…
Chen Feng shook his head. "Forget it. Do you want to give this liquid a try?" he asked while pointing at the liquid.
"I have already consumed the fruit in the past." The monkey appeared regretful.
"How many did you consume?" Chen Feng asked. If the monkey hadn't consumed too many, perhaps he could still figure out the potency of this liquid through deduction.
"Around 20 of them…" the huge monkey said after some thought.
Chen Feng laughed coldly upon hearing this. "Hehe." Was it not said that each of the herculean apes was only allowed to consume two or three of them? It seemed like this huge monkey had been one to abuse his position in the past.
"Do you have anyone that has only consumed it twice?" Chen Feng asked as he waved his hand. Soon, a rather sturdy-looking herculean ape arrived.
Chen Feng gave him a one-person portion of the liquid. "Here, give it a try."
"All right."
That herculean ape swallowed it down in a single gulp. Based on the effect of the fruit, on the forth consumption, one should only obtain around a quarter of the first consumption's effects.
Bang!
The liquid erupted with power within the monkey. Next, his body inflated like a balloon shortly before deflating. As this happened, formidable power started emanating from his body. As of this moment, he had reached level 5 awakened from his initial level 4 awakened.
The huge monkey's eyes went wide.
This fellow had clearly consumed the fruit in the past and had obtained an advancement of one and a half levels. And now his level had increased yet again?
"Me… I want to try it out as well."
The huge monkey gulped down the remaining liquid in excitement. Similarly, his body inflated as well. Everyone's eyes went wide as they saw this. This worked as well? One ought to know that this huge monkey had, in the past, abused his power to eat the aphrodisiac fruit like it was candy, to the point that the fruit now had no effect on him. Yet even so, this liquid was working for him? Chen Feng had a pensive look as he watched on.
"Here it comes."
The huge monkey looked at his inflated belly in excitement. A certain clump of gas seemed to be fermenting within him, a clump that seemingly contained boundless power. He knew that this was the sign of advancement. It had been quite a while since he had last had any advancement. Suddenly…
Pooop!
With a loud sound, that clump of gas vanished. Behind him, an old tree that was sturdier than average was instantly blown apart…
Shua!
Instantly, everyone sank into silence. The group of monkeys hurriedly looked in a different direction while the huge monkey's face flushed red in embarrassment.
"…"
Chen Feng watched on in silence. Mhm… This had to be something that would happen if the effect was weakened to the point that it could no longer provide any sort of advancement to the user. After all, the huge monkey had consumed too many of this fruit in the past. Even with the enhancement provided by this liquid, the effect was still not sufficient to bring about any change in the huge monkey's body, and the resulting power had no choice but to make an exit through the chrysanthemum.
Mhm…
That should be the case. Chen Feng explained all this with a serious expression. As the huge monkey heard this, his face darkened.
"Gather several sets of the same materials," Chen Feng commanded. Next, the group of herculean apes dispersed to work.
The huge monkey opened his mouth wide, not knowing what to say. "I…"
Chen Feng patted his shoulder. "Don't worry. Whose life is without an embarrassing moment or two? In fact, for this fruit to behave in such a manner after being consumed by you, from a scientific angle, this is nothing surprising."
The huge monkey looked better after hearing this.
"However, you should rejoice that you didn't eat anything before this," Chen Feng said with a faint smile on his face.
Eaten?
As the huge monkey thought about it, his face greened from shock. If he had eaten before that, the earlier implosion…
He inhaled deeply in shock, suddenly feeling like everything was meaningless.
Chen Feng ignored him. After the monkeys returned from gathering materials, he started producing once again. After several tests, he was able to once again increase the average strength of the herculean apes. The average had now been pushed from level 3 to level 5. Monkeys who had never consumed the fruit before obtained a direct advancement of three levels. This was only from a single consumption. If they consumed it several more times…
The herculean apes were in a celebratory mood. Even those who had consumed the fruit in the past had advanced a single level. In the entire tribe, only the huge monkey was sitting by the side, sighing in sorrow. Abusing power wasn't something fun, after all…
"Nearly there now."
Chen Feng was very satisfied with the effect of this reagent.
Bang!
He gulped it down. Instantly, his strength rocketed up. From level 5 awakened, he advanced straight to level 8. Just as he had guessed, this reagent was capable of providing a boost of three levels. And thus, Chen Feng formally entered level 8 awakened.
However, this is still not enough, Chen Feng thought with a cold look in his eyes. What he wanted was not this much.
Gulp!
He consumed yet another gene reagent.
Bang!
The medicinal power surged, once again pushing Chen Feng's strength forward. Just like the fruit, the effect of the second consumption was weakened. Even so, Chen Feng obtained an increase of a level and a half. With this, he reached mid–level 9 awakened.
"Still not enough," he said after taking in a deep breath.
Gulp.
He consumed yet another gene reagent.
Bang!
The medicinal power erupted. With three reagents, the respective increases would be 3, 1.5, and, finally, 0.75, for a total increase of 5.25 levels. This was what Chen Feng wanted, to advance five levels through this reagent.
Bang! Bang!
His body was filled with power. When the effect of the reagent ended, Chen Feng was already at level 10 awakened. For a mortal, this would already be the peak of life. Chen Feng clenched his fists and immersed himself in the power contained within his body. In fact, this was a strength he had tasted earlier when he had used the temporary booster reagent. But this time, this effect was permanent. He was now so powerful that one couldn't easily measure his strength.
With the miniature person within him, he would be able to unleash a might equivalent to a level 100 awakened. Thus, he would be able to contend against a level 1 resonator. This was what he would use as his foothold in this new era.
"I want to become stronger. Even if I can't resonate, with my miniature person, I can still become stronger, strong enough to contend against resonators… or even stronger existences!"
His gaze was sharp. He realized that so long as he continued becoming stronger, a day would come when he ascended into godhood himself. At that time, he would retrieve all he had lost.
Hu—
He inhaled deeply and covered up his aura of a level 100 awakened. He was sure that even if he could unleash the combat power of a level 100, his actual level was still 10, quite far away from level 20. This was quite a unique era. With the nourishment of godly power, all the herbs had transformed, especially those capable of increasing one's strength. If all of these herbs were produced into gene reagents…

Chapter 756: Hehehe
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Are there any other herbs around here that can increase one's strength?" Chen Feng asked.
"Of course." The huge monkey grinned. "However, those do not belong to the herculean apes."
Chen Feng smiled. "They don't now, but they might in the future."
"Yes, yes." The huge monkey had a wide smile on his face as he heard this. He had not been able to participate in this strength increase and was somewhat sad. As such, the moment he heard that Chen Feng was looking for other resources, he laughed in joy.
"This orchard was ours in the first place but was taken away. The truth is that the Grasshorde Tribe has their own resources as well…" the huge monkey said with a smile.
"Splendid." Chen Feng rubbed his fist eagerly. Now that the average strength of the herculean apes had risen to level 5 from level 3, it was time for them to have some training in their newfound strength. Perhaps the grasshorde race would be of assistance? Hehe.
At a certain location, the steelback king was watching on gloomily as his tribesmen were being carried back. A few days ago, he had heard that the Grasshorde Tribe had set a trap for the herculean apes. They had believed that this would be a lucrative and easy job. Unexpectedly, they had been thoroughly defeated in the very first encounter.
The steelback king was furious. "So are these the so-called herculean apes that are so weak that they need to rely on aphrodisiac fruits?"
The green monkey was still somewhat stupefied. "I… I have no idea either. Before this, they were indeed quite weak. I reckon their night activities have never been easy. But for some reason, all of them seemed to go crazy today."
At this moment, the green monkey recalled the monkey with skin disease and the liquid they drank before the fight.
"Oh, right. They definitely requested outside help," the green monkey said in anger. "That furless fellow!"
"Hmph!" The steelback king snorted and stood up. Terrifying pressure emanated out from his body, making it difficult for the green monkey to even breathe. He was very clear about how terrifying the steelback king was. In the resonance realm, any sort of advancement was extremely hard.
Since the strength of a resonator was related to godly power, resonators had to comprehend godly power without stop. Apart from training themselves, they had to cultivate godly power as well. This was the reason for the high difficulty in advancement. As for the steelback king, he was a level 2 resonator, one who surpassed the green monkey in every aspect.
"Is this your excuse after causing the deaths of my tribesmen?" the steelback king questioned.
The green monkey felt like crying. "No, no."
Suddenly, the steelback king said, "I heard your Grasshorde Tribe has a certain fruit under your control…" In this era, for a tribe to grow, resources were a necessity. Therefore, nearly every tribe relied on certain resources to sustain their growth. In fact, most of the tribes would only settle down on a location after discovering resources there. That had been the case for the herculean apes and the Grasshorde Tribe.
The green monkey's eyes went wide. "No, no way. That is the symbol of our tribe and the sole resource under our control. We will definitely not give it away, even in death!" The green monkey clenched his teeth and continued, "If you insist… I will have no choice but to contact Lord God."
Contacting Lord God… Suddenly, the steelback king narrowed his eyes. They were both resonators of a certain god. As such, it was only natural that they were able to contact the god. Of course, the premise for all this was the god being willing to respond to the call in the first place. After all, any single god would have countless resonators under their faith… Nevertheless, there was still a risk involved. The steelback king had no intention of provoking the anger of a god just because he was trying to extort some resources from the Grasshorde Tribe.
"Don't worry," the steelback king said after some thought, "How about we share it? To be precise, compensate for the deaths of my tribesmen by allowing their kin to go once. How about this?"
The green monkey had an unsightly expression. Compensation… to the dead… Since these people had all died for the Grasshorde Tribe, he truly couldn't think of a reason to reject this request.
The green monkey clenched his teeth. "That is possible. However…"
The steelback king waved his hand before the green monkey could even finish his words. "Haha, I knew you would agree to it, brother. Let's go." With that wave, numerous steelback tribesmen appeared and followed behind the king. From the looks of it, there seemed to be nearly a thousand of them. The steelback king had actually gotten the entirety of his tribe to join in on this.
The green monkey was alarmed. "No, this won't do. Only the kin of the dead can enter."
The steelback king curled his lips. "These are all the kin of the dead. Introduce yourself."
"Okay. I am his father," a certain steelback tribesman said as he pointed at a corpse with a broken leg. His face gloomy, he asked, "Can I go?"
The green monkey nodded. "Yes." Since the son was dead, it was natural to allow the father entry.
"I am his mother."
"I am his uncle."
"I am his second uncle."
"I am his third uncle."
…
"I am the wife of his father's younger brother."
"I am the wife of his father's second younger brother."
…
"I am his eldest brother."
"I am his second elder brother."
"I am his third elder brother."
…
"I am his younger brother."
"I am his second younger brother."
"I am his third younger brother."
…
"I am his eldest sister."
"I am his second elder sister."
"I am his third elder sister."
…
"I am his younger sister."
"I am his second younger sister."
"I am his third younger sister."
…
The green monkey shivered as he listened on. Just when he believed that it was finally over, another steelback tribesman appeared. The moment that person opened her mouth, the green monkey started to emotionally collapse.
"I am his wife."
The appearance of this wife signified another round of introductions with the uncles of the wife, aunts of the wife, parents of the wife, siblings of the wife. Yet another bunch of people had appeared. This family totaled around 100 people.
This…
The green monkey was stupefied. So far, only the kin of a single dead had stood out. How could there be so many of them?
The steelback king sneered. "We of the steelback tribe have great reproductive capabilities. What? Do you have something to say about that?"
"No, nothing." The green monkey's face became unsightly, and the green fur on his head swayed around like seagrass.
Yet another person stood out. "I am his illegitimate son."
The green monkey was dumbfounded. This works?
"I am his lover."
"I am his illegitimate daughter."
"I am the lover of his wife."
"I am the wife of his illegitimate son."
…
Yet another bunch of people stood out. The green monkey was somewhat stupefied. This… were these still kin? Hold on… Something seemed wrong. He looked at the wife's lover… What the hell, after screwing another's wife, he still dared to join in?
"Scram!" the green monkey barked. "You are trying to join with such a distant relationship? I can allow the illegitimate children to join. But what do you count as?"
"Fine." That steelback tribesman left while muttering under his breath.
"So this means that you agree with the rest of them?" The steelback king was rather pleased as he patted the green monkey's shoulder. "Worthy of being the Grasshorde Tribe indeed. You are filled with benevolence and righteousness toward our brothers who have fallen in battle. Only this will ensure that there will be people willing to render your tribe assistance in times of need."
"Ah?" The green monkey blanked before realizing that he had fallen for the steelback king's trick.
"Come, continue the registration."
And thus, the green monkey watched on with an unsightly expression as over 120 kin per dead stood out, all hoping to receive compensation.
The green monkey trembled at the sight of this. That was because, during that battle, over 20 steelback tribesmen had been sacrificed. On top of that, there were also those who had been crippled, who also required compensation. The green monkey looked at the huge group of steelback tribesmen before him and despaired.
"Come, the next family."
By the side, the steelback king continued the registration. Finally, after an hour, the registration was completed. Mhm… There were 21 dead, 12 with grave injuries, and 6 with light injuries.
When all was done, the steelback king had, in a rather generous, fashion excluded the kin of the six lightly wounded ones from receiving compensation. Ultimately, a total of 3,625 people were qualified to join. The green monkey trembled. How… could there be so many of them? He had no answer to this question. However, this number did sound familiar to him.
After pondering the matter, he recalled. Was this not the total population of the steelback tribe? In short, every last one of them had joined in?
"You all…"
The green monkey was furious. His fury was further compounded by the fact that the lover of the dead person's wife earlier had also been included in the final list.
"On what basis have you obtained the qualification to join?" the green monkey asked.
"Him, the lad with a broken leg, is his lover," the steelback king explained.
The green monkey glanced over and asked, "But they are both males…"
The steelback king sighed. "There's no helping it. Nowadays, we have to be politically correct. Hence, we can't discriminate against same-sex relationships."
"…"
The green monkey trembled in fury. He knew that he had been thoroughly tricked.
"What? Do you have something to say about that?" The huge steelback king stood behind him, and his huge hand landed on the green monkey's shoulder. "Brother, compensating the dead is reasoning even Lord God will agree with."
"…" The green monkey clenched his teeth, as he had no choice but to concede. "Only this one time."
The steelback king flashed a wide smile. "That is only natural." He believed that with his 3,000-plus tribesmen, they would be able to exhaust the supply the Grasshorde Tribe had accumulated over the years.

Chapter 757: Level 2 Resonance
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
In the forest, the Steelback Tribe had just reached the Grasshorde Tribe's territory. In the orchard, they saw the sparkling and translucent fruits. Just as they were about to start plucking those fruits, a terrifying killing intent descended. Numerous familiar figures appeared.
"It's you people again!" The green monkey was furious at what he saw, his mortal enemies, the herculean apes.
"You guys dare attack us directly?" He was beyond furious. His previous defeat had been due to their lack of preparation and the distance of that orchard, which was nearer to the herculean apes' territory. Yet now, these fellows dared attack them in their own territory? Were they feeling suicidal or something? They were even attacking when both the Steelback Tribe and the Grasshorde Tribe were here.
The steelback king patted the green monkey's shoulder. "Brother, looks like you are going to owe me yet another favor."
Instantly, the green monkey's hands trembled. Could it be that… the Grasshorde Orchard would never be able to escape this fellow?
"Of course, we of the Steelback Tribe are loyal to our friends." The steelback king waved his hand. "However, if you do not want us to interfere, I guarantee that we will definitely not get involved in this. We will leave directly after plucking the fruits and will not participate in the war between you monkeys."
…
The green monkey sank into silence as he once again recalled that young furless monkey and the liquid they had used. Could he truly deal with them alone?
"Please help," the green monkey said after taking a deep breath. "I will allow you guys entry one more time next year."
"Excellent." The steelback king was greatly pleased. Even if they were only allowed one entry per year, he was sure that this single entry would be sufficient for them to clean out an entire year's worth of supply from the monkeys. In fact, even the green monkey was aware of this. However, he had no other choice. Rather than totally losing this Grasshorde Orchard, he would prefer to sacrifice a year's worth of supplies and get rid of these herculean apes once and for all.
"However, I have a condition," the green monkey said coldly. "We must absolutely not allow them to escape."
"Fear not," the steelback king said with a vicious expression. "Do you think I will let them off when they have killed my tribesmen? Even if you wanted to let them off, I would still kill them all. Haha. After all... after killing them, their Aphrodisiac Orchard will be mine." The steelback king howled with laughter.
Tricked again!
The green monkey realized that since the steelback king coveted the herculean apes' Aphrodisiac Orchard, he was going to participate in this battle regardless. How could he have forgotten this? Once again, he had been tricked. Not far away, Chen Feng and the huge monkey merely watched on coldly as the herculean apes surrounded the area. The herculean apes were greater in number than either of the two tribes they were facing, as they had around 5,000 monkeys in their ranks. However, this amount was still lower than the total of the Grasshorde and Steelback Tribes.
"What gives you the nerve to thin out and surround us instead?" the green monkey said gloomily. He was now of a mind to vent all his anger on these herculean apes.
The herculean apes had an average strength of level 3 awakened. Even in the previous battle, when they had consumed that mysterious liquid, their average strength had only reached level 8 awakened. However, they still lacked godly power. As such, in this confrontation, the only possible conclusion for them was death. That was because both he and the steelback king were both resonators.
That furless bastard's strength was similar to his, merely slightly stronger. However, so what? Nobody else in their tribe was capable of facing a resonator. As for this steelback king, he was even stronger.
"Steelback king…" Even the huge monkey tensed up as he saw the steelback king here. He was aware of how terrifying this fellow was. All of the tribes in this area would normally scramble to get out of the way at the mere sight of this steelback king. This fellow had been in the resonance realm for quite a while and was already a level 2 resonator. He was more than capable of delivering them a crushing defeat.
Chen Feng looked at the steelback king and said, "Let me deal with him. You guys deal with those green monkeys. Can you do it?"
Green monkeys…
The huge monkey smiled bitterly. He wanted to say that even the green monkeys had a resonator in their midst, so he was not confident he could win. After all, a level 1 resonator was equivalent to a level 100 awakened! How could he hope to defeat such an opponent? However, after remembering their plan, he took in a deep breath and decided to throw caution to the wind.
Bang! Bang!
The ground trembled as the huge steelback king stepped out.
The steelback king spoke coldly. "I heard you are the troublemaking furless monkey? For killing my tribesmen, you shall pay with your life."
Bang!
He erupted with strength. A huge fist pulsing with godly power descended. This was the fist of a level 2 resonator, equivalent to a level 200 awakened. This was a power the herculean apes could only look up to. They watched on as that terrifying strength descended upon Chen Feng. All of them trembled. Such strength…
Chen Feng consumed a gene reagent.
Gulp.
His body erupted with power.
Bang!
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed coldly. Now!
He leaped up and swung his tiny fist toward the steelback king's fist.
Bang!
A loud boom resounded. Instantly, the huge steelback king was flung away and smashed into the ground, creating a huge crater. All the onlookers were dumbstruck.
This… this…
Dust filled the air. Amid the dust, the tiny figure of Chen Feng appeared so very awe inspiring. This was especially true since he had defeated an opponent so much bigger than him. How could this…
Bang!
The steelback king crawled out of the crater as all his scales started vibrating. He did not seemed to have sustained any injuries, but his expression when looking at Chen Feng became solemn. "I never expected that you were also a level 2 resonator."
Chen Feng merely laughed. "Hehe." A level 2 resonator… No, he instead was a level 200 awakened.
To be precise, he was presently a level 225 awakened. With the reagent, he had temporarily been boosted to level 15 awakened, and with the amplification effect of the miniature person within him, he reached level 225 awakened. This was his present strength. The allida reagent had indeed helped him display an astonishing level of strength.
"Holy shit!"
The huge monkey's mouth went wide as he saw this. He had known that Chen Feng was strong. He also knew that this strength was thanks to that liquid. However, when he himself consumed the liquid, his strength was only boosted by around 5 levels. How could there be such a disparity? The huge monkey started doubting himself, doubting whether he was truly capable of absorbing any nutrients.
Bang!
The steelback king attacked once again. Even if Chen Feng was stronger, the innate scales and the body the steelback king was blessed with allowed him a higher endurance. As such, the battle between the two of them would probably not end any time soon.
"Green monkey, you will have to deal with the rest," the steelback king said. He knew that victory was certain. He only needed to continue enduring the attacks of this furless monkey while the green monkey killed off all the herculean apes. At that time, the strength of this furless monkey would not matter anymore, since he would be all alone.
"Understood." The green monkey had a vicious look on his face. He had been waiting far too long for this moment.
Bang!
"Huge monkey," he called out with a sneer, "time to settle our differences."
The huge monkey smiled. "You truly wish for this? Did you not notice what's going on around you?"
The green monkey blanked. What? He turned around, and his entire body instantly chilled as he saw the herculean apes beating up both the grasshorde and steelback tribesmen. Moreover, this was a crushing victory, even with their lower numbers. The herculean apes only numbered around 5,000, whereas both their tribes together numbered around 7,000. Despite that…
Bang! Bang!
They continued suffering a huge number of casualties. The green monkey looked around and noticed that the Herculean Ape Tribe, which he had previously estimate to be only level 8 awakened at most, was now comprised of level 10 awakened ones. Level 10 awakened, the peak of life below godly power. That's right. All 5,000 of the herculean apes were presently at level 10 awakened.
How was that even possible? The green monkey's face greened in shock.
Both the steelback and grasshorde tribesmen were suffering heavy casualties.
"Make a guess. Before you kill me, will all your tribesmen die first?" The huge monkey laughed viciously. Although his overall combat power was no match for this green monkey's, he was confident in his endurance. Therefore, bring it on! He had no fear. Even as they conversed, some herculean apes had already finished with their respective opponents and were heading over to help him against the green monkey, greatly alarming the green monkey.
Was a level 1 resonator strong? Yes. However, when said resonator had to face over 1,000 level 10 awakened ones… could he still stand tall?

Chapter 758: Charge
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
More and more herculean apes charged over. The green monkey trembled all over. He was sure that he would be able to kill a lot of them. However, he was even more sure that he did not have sufficient godly power to kill all 5,000 of them, what with all of them being peak awakened ones.
"Come at me, bro, come!" the huge monkey said as he flipped his middle finger at the green monkey. The green monkey's eyes greened from anger and his blood started to surge. He knew that the huge monkey was trying to provoke him into attacking. However, he was truly helpless against this provocation. He knew that if he continued fighting, he would surely die.
He was smart enough to realize that. The steelback king was evenly matched against the furless monkey, whereas he would still have a slight superiority even when fighting the huge monkey and this group of herculean apes. However, the other herculean apes were wiping the floor with the other steelback and grasshorde tribesmen. The moment they were done… The mere thought of what would happen caused him to shudder in fear. In a fight like this, the moment one party was put at a disadvantage, it could very well snowball into an eventual crushing defeat.
Suddenly, the green monkey realized the reason for all this. "That thing they consumed…" He knew that they would only have a hope of victory if they had a way of dealing with that thing.
Suddenly, he told the steelback king, "Retreat!"
Shua!
He started retreating rapidly with his fellow tribesmen.
"Trash!" the steelback king cursed. However, since the green monkeys could even abandon their own territory, what could he do? And thus, the Steelback Tribe also retreated rapidly. Just like that, this war ended with their retreat. Chen Feng and the huge monkey exchanged glances. This battle... seemed much easier than they had imagined? After all, prior to their arrival, they had been prepared for a fight to the death.
"Should we give chase?" the huge monkey asked.
"What do you think?" grumbled Chen Feng.
"Fine." The huge monkey understood what he meant. As he looked at the Grasshorde Orchard before him, his eyes went red from excitement. Finally... finally, they had obtained this place! At the same time, in the Steelback Tribe's territory, the defeated army of the Steelback and Grasshorde Tribes appeared.
"Why did you retreat?" the steelback king asked coldly. They had obviously had a chance at victory.
"Don't you feel that the liquid they consumed before the battle is rather suspicious?" the green monkey said after a moment's thought.
The steelback king's curiosity was piqued. "Oh?"
"Based on my observation, the liquid they consumed was capable of increasing their strength by several levels. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for them to reach peak awakened realm. Don't forget that before this, those trash merely averaged around level 3, near the bottom of the realm. Yet now they are all so powerful. There's also that furless bastard…" The green monkey gnashed his teeth. "Even in the prior encounter, he was only slightly stronger than me."
The steelback king had a pensive look. "An increase of several levels?"
"I am sure of that," the green monkey said. "There surely is a limitation to such a powerful item. Do you remember the blue-leafed grass they used to use? Is that not something with a similar effect? It merely has a lower duration, just three seconds, and is not so powerful. This new liquid they obtained is most definitely much more powerful. Therefore, I believe that…" The green monkey licked his lip in greed and continued, "…So long as we figure out exactly what that thing is… Hehe…"
The steelback king was extremely satisfied with this news he had received. His heart ached at the deaths of his tribesmen. However, if he could easily defeat them…
…
At this time, Chen Feng was still at the orchard and was unaware that the defeated enemies were conspiring against him. He and the huge monkey were gazing at the fruits here in greed.
--
Grasshorde Fruit
Function: Weak increase in strength.
--
This was what the Grasshorde Tribe had relied on for their survival. Different from the fruit of the herculean apes, this grasshorde fruit could only be used once. Moreover, the amount of improvement was based on the strength of whoever consumed it rather than a fixed amount. On average, though, a level 1 awakened would be able to reach level 3 by consuming this fruit.
"Very good."
Chen Feng started his tests immediately. He was sure that the green monkeys and the steelbacks would not take this lying down. Therefore, he had to increase his strength as soon as possible. Since they had so many grasshorde fruits here, he would be able to freely conduct his tests.
The herculean apes started gathering materials frantically for him. And next, the production began. Chen Feng was already extremely practiced in everything pertaining to gene production. Material gathering, production, failure, material gathering, production, failure, and so on. The herculean apes were split into several groups, all responsible for gathering materials for Chen Feng. As for Chen Feng, he focused on continuous production. After numerous failures, he finally succeeded.
--
Grasshorde Green Reagent
Function: Increase the strength of an awakened one.
Limitation: Only usable once.
--
"Try it out?"
Chen Feng gave the eager huge monkey the privilege of being the first one to consume this reagent.
Gulp.
He consumed it without the slightest hesitation.
Bang!
He started shining with an intense radiance.
The body of the huge monkey, which had been stunted, for so long suddenly ignited with an intense aura. Both his eyes became bright red as a unique aura pulsed within his body. His strength, at level 20 awakened, started increasing, reaching level 21, then 22, and finally 23.
Success!
The huge monkey was overjoyed. Three levels of improvement! He had actually gained an increase of three levels! A regular grasshorde fruit would probably grant a level or two of increase. Only the extremely talented ones of the Grasshorde Tribe would be able to obtain an increase of three levels. Even within the inner circle of the Grasshorde Tribe, those capable of a three-level increase would be lauded as absolute geniuses. Yet he, an outsider, had reached this level!
This was truly inconceivable. In fact, he had not had much hope at the start and had merely been hoping for an increase of a single level. Yet now… Naturally, this huge improvement definitely had something to do with the reagent produced by Chen Feng. This fellow, even if he was not a god, he was surely an absolute genius. The huge monkey was sure of this.
As the other monkeys saw this, they all started to consume their gene reagents as well. Initially, they were similar to the huge monkey—they had merely hoped for an increase of a level or two. Moreover, it wasn't so long ago that they had all obtained an increase in strength. As such, they did not expect to have another major increase so soon.
Gulp! Gulp!
Surprising all of them, most of them were able to obtain an increase of two levels!
"Howl!"
"Howl!"
They started jumping around, howling in excitement. How long had it been since they had last had a major improvement in strength? So soon after, they had obtained yet another major improvement? The average strength of their tribe had, from the initial level 3, increased to level 5, and now they averaged level 7. That was an increase of four levels, surpassing even the Steelback Tribe.
Even scarier was the fact that each of them could clearly feel that this source of strength within them was extremely stable and powerful, leaving no backlash whatsoever, unlike some other strength-boosting items.
One ought to know that what people feared most when their strength increased drastically was the very foundations of their cultivation becoming unstable. Yet here, using the reagent produced by Chen Feng, this was nonexistent.
Chen Feng did not look surprised at all about this. What kind of joke was that? After all, the act of gene production was in fact an act of boosting the medicinal effect of herbs, as well as the stability of the newfound strength. The difference between gene production and the consumption of raw materials was as wide as the heavens and earth. Without a doubt, gene production was not unlike a super-advanced technology in this new era.
"My turn."
Chen Feng prepared to consume the gene reagent as well. Based on the effect on these monkeys, he already had a rough estimate of the amount of improvement he would obtain.
This reagent was indeed one whose effect depended on the one consuming it. Among the several thousand herculean apes, a vast majority of them had gained an increase of two levels, with only a few of them obtaining an increase of one level. These were mostly those who were either too weak or young.
As for the group of monkeys that had already been strong, they had all obtained an increase of three levels, not much different than the huge monkey. As such, this reagent had preserved the effects of the fruit itself, granting improvement in accordance to the one consuming it.
Mhm…
Perhaps he would only be able to obtain an increase of two levels. This was a conclusion he had reached after observing these monkeys. However, for Chen Feng, two levels would make an extremely huge difference. At present, he was at level 10 and was able to unleash the strength of a level 100. If he reached level 12, he would be able to unleash the strength of a level 144! The actual increase he would obtain was 44 levels.
However, he was still somewhat dissatisfied with this. After all, even that huge monkey had obtained an increase of three levels. Must he resign himself to only two levels? Hold on… the strength of the one consuming…
Chen Feng called a random monkey over. "You, come. Consume the allida reagent first before consuming the grasshorde reagent."
Shua!
Everyone's eyes shone as they heard this. Yes, since the effect depended on one's strength, what if…
Gulp.
That monkey consumed the reagent without hesitation. His strength rocketed and his aura surged. The two reagents were seemingly working together, but ultimately, the monkey obtained an increase of two levels. The effect of the allida reagent was rather obvious. However, it ultimately failed to change the boost the grasshorde fruit provided. From this, it was obvious that temporary strength would not be taken into consideration.
"Seems like it won't work," Chen Feng muttered. Well, since the allida reagent wouldn't help, it was time to…
Bang!
The aura within him shook slightly. Next, he took out the reagent and gulped it down. Around him, the monkeys stared on, waiting to see the amount of improvement Chen Feng would obtain.

Chapter 759: What Kind of Strength Is This?
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Bang! Bang!
Layers of aura rippled out. Without realizing it himself, the miniature person within Chen Feng synced with him. This was not a sync during an attack. Rather, this was a complete sync, even including this action of consuming the gene reagent. As of this moment, Chen Feng had a feeling that he was no longer the same. This was his very first time syncing with the miniature person out of battle.
Shua! Shua!
The energy level within Chen Feng's body dropped at a rapid rate. Each sync with the miniature person exhausted him greatly. However, Chen Feng did not care about this as he continued to slowly guide the miniature person. As for his physical body, it started operating as well, slowly digesting the medicinal powder.
After a long time, just as Chen Feng was about to be fully out of energy, forcing the miniature person to come to a halt, the medicinal power was finally fully digested.
Shua!
The layers of aura vanished. As for the monkeys around him, all their eyes went wide, as just a moment ago, the aura surging out of Chen Feng had been at a level that caused them all to feel terrified, so formidable that it caused them to choke.
The huge monkey was filled with expectation. "How much have you improved?"
"Hu—"
Chen Feng let out a long breath as his consciousness focused back on his physical body. At present, he was a level 15 awakened. That's right. He had obtained an increase of five levels from the reagent. By fully syncing with the miniature person while digesting the medicinal power, his strength level had been maintained at level 100 awakened during the digestion. Ultimately, this had allowed him to surpass the huge monkey and gain five levels.
It seemed like this method of increasing one's strength would grow harder as time went by. Chen Feng understood this clearly. Those at around level 6 would obtain an increase of two levels, those at around level 17, 18, or even 20 would obtain an increase of three levels. Yet he, despite holding steady at level 100 earlier, had only been able to gain five levels. The difficulty level for further improving the effect was totally ridiculous. Chen Feng shook his head at the thought of the possibility of obtaining a six levels increase.
The huge monkey was completely alarmed and started stuttering. "F-five levels? Holy shit." He had known that Chen Feng was stronger than him. As such, he had expected Chen Feng to improve more than him, but five levels… How much stronger than him was this guy? And look at what this guy was doing, shaking his head in dissatisfaction?
The huge monkey was filled with grief as he compared himself to Chen Feng. Apart from him, the other herculean apes were incredibly shocked as well. Fortunately, they had all gotten used to Chen Feng's prowess and weren't too badly affected. Rather, all of them were happy for him. The stronger Chen Feng was, the stronger their tribe would be.
"Let us continue so the tribesmen that have yet to use the liquid can use it as well," Chen Feng said.
"Okay."
The herculean apes continued gathering materials.
After familiarizing himself with this formula, Chen Feng decided to directly throw all the materials into a big cauldron and start a large-scale gene production. Otherwise, he would tire himself to death producing genes one by one for these monkeys.
In the ground, a huge crater could be seen. Contained within was a certain shiny and translucent liquid. By the side, Chen Feng was supervising the huge monkey as he stirred the liquid with a huge branch. As for Chen Feng himself, he focused on altering the genes of these materials in his digitized world. For the present him, this process was quite easy.
Soon, the production was completed. And with that, the entirety of the herculean ape tribe obtained yet another boost in strength. Right about this time, something surprising happened. The Steelback and Grasshorde Tribes actually arrived. With great fanfare, they charged in, seemingly filled with confidence.
The huge monkey was flabbergasted. "You guys actually have the gall to still come at us?"
"Hmph!"
The Steelback Tribe did not bother saying anything and immediately attacked with full power.
"They arrived just in time." Chen Feng sank into thought. Since they had just improved their strength, they needed to temper this new strength. The present average level of the herculean apes had already surpassed the average of the Steelback Tribe by a single level, even before using the allida reagent.
"Don't use the liquid for now. Fight with your existing strength."
Bang!
The fight began. However, before long, both of the attacking tribes retreated.
The huge monkey: "???"
What were they thinking? All of them were stupefied. This time, the herculean apes had not used any liquid to boost their combat power. As such, both sides had been quite evenly matched in the battle earlier. One could even say that the herculean apes had been at a slight disadvantaged. Yet even so, the two tribes had opted to retreat? Even Chen Feng could not make sense of this.
"Left just like that?"
"Are they here for a walk?"
"Did they hit their heads or something?"
"…"
"Well, just stay on alert." That was the only thing Chen Feng could say. However, after a few short minutes, the ground started trembling. Next, numerous steelback and grasshorde tribesmen appeared, and with great fanfare, they attacked yet again.
"Go!" the huge monkey shouted as he gnashed his teeth. And yet, three minutes into the fight, the Steelback Tribe retreated once again.
The huge monkey: "???"
They looked at the ground littered with the steelback and grasshorde tribesmen's corpses. Had these fellows really hit their heads somewhere? One ought to know that despite the slight disadvantage they'd had during the battle, each of the herculean apes had a bottle of allida reagent on them. Whenever became dangerous, they would use those bottles. As such, the herculean apes had not suffered any losses from the two skirmishes. Rather, the Steelback and Grasshorde Tribes were the ones who kept suffering casualties without stop. What exactly were they thinking?
"Pay more attention and be careful," Chen Feng said.
"All right." The huge monkey increased his vigilance. Shortly afterward, the enemies returned. Two times, three times, four times…
The huge monkey frowned. "I feel like something isn't right."
The sense of pressure brought by the attacking enemies was increasing, as the huge monkey believed that they would not come forward and throw their lives away for no apparent reason. There had to be a trick somewhere.
"Then end the battle speedily." Chen Feng inhaled deeply. "Let me deal with the two resonators."
"Okay," the huge monkey answered.
"This time… do not allow them to flee."
"Understood."
This time, the herculean apes hid themselves. When the two enemy tribes arrived, the herculean apes immediately used their reagents. Instantly, their strength rocketed and the battle began.
The steelback king ordered a retreat without any hesitation. "Go!"
Chen Feng snorted. "Hmph." He was now a level 15 awakened. With the boost provided by the allida reagent, he reached level 20 awakened. And with the amplification effect of his miniature person, he reached an astonishing level of 400! The strength he could erupt with had reached a brand new level.
"Can you even escape?" said Chen Feng, his face calm.
Shua!
He flickered and immediately reappeared behind the steelback king. Next, he hurled his fist out.
Bang!
A dreadful force burst out of his hand and landed on the thick scales of the steelback king. Then, a translucent wave rippled out of the scales, seemingly having counteracted all the force sent forth by Chen Feng's fist.
The steelback king laughed. "Hahaha. How can this level of attack damage my scales…"
Before he could even finish his sentence, he stopped talking. His eyes went wide as he stared at his chest, disbelieving. There, an immense force could be felt trying to break out of his chest.
Pu!
Blood splattered everywhere. Chen Feng's attack had actually pierced through his scales and gone through his body to directly reach the front of his body.
This… How is this possible?
The steelback king's eyes opened wide. How was it possible for Chen Feng to be this strong?
Bang!
And next, his body loudly crashed to the ground.
As the others saw this, they tried to flee in fear. However, how could they succeed? The herculean apes had presently fully erupted in power, and the majority of them were level 12 awakened. This was an inconceivable realm.
"Come," Chen Feng said as he looked at the green monkey, who had already been captured. "Why are you guys attacking and retreating?"
"We…" The green monkey gulped, as he felt like crying. "We discovered that you guys have something capable of boosting your strength. We also noticed that there is an active duration to that boost. As such, we planned to force you guys to use it before retreating and returning when the duration was over…"
So this was their plan? Chen Feng exchanged glances with the huge monkey. It was without doubt that these enemies were quite intelligent. In fact, this plan could have worked. Unfortunately, they had come a tad bit too late, after the herculean apes had obtained yet another increase in strength.
In fact, the present herculean apes would not fear them even without the allida reagent. In short, the two tribes had been attacking and fleeing just so they could force the herculean apes to use their reagent. However, it was truly lamentable for them that after the herculean apes' eruption, they had failed to even escape. The herculean apes that had fully erupted in power had delivered them a crushing defeat. Furthermore, the steelback king had even been defeated with a single punch.
The steelback king possessed defenses far surpassing his peers. Even so, he had been helpless against Chen Feng's fist. How strong exactly was this person? One ought to remember that the steelback king was a resonator, as was the green monkey. However, against Chen Feng, an awakened, they were completely not a match.
How was this even possible? And those herculean apes, how had their strength improved so rapidly? The green monkey was thoroughly stupefied. He could no longer understand this world.

Chapter 760: Mountcarver
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
The Grasshorde Tribe was no more. The Steelback Tribe was no more either. In the territory of the Steelback Tribe, they found a fruit capable of increasing strength. However, due to the Steelback Tribe's excessive consumption, it would probably take a year or so for the trees to bear fruit once again.
Regardless, this was still a new resource they had gained control of. Suddenly, Chen Feng felt like he had discovered a bright path toward greatness. Since all resources capable of increasing strength were already occupied, he only needed to keep conquering these tribes and he would most certainly be able to obtain control over numerous resources. He would then be able to advance without stop and reach level 100 awakened or, perhaps, even higher.
"Huge monkey, draw up a map detailing the surrounding tribes for me," Chen Feng said in excitement.
The huge monkey nodded. "All right." Even if the herculean apes specialized in brute strength, they were nevertheless monkeys. As such, they were rather nimble and were skilled at scouting out the enemies as well. Soon after, a detailed map was drawn.
Alas, the result differed somewhat from what Chen Feng had expected. He had originally expected that, with the herculean apes as the starting point, he would be able to fight his way through all these tribes while increasing his strength without stop. Ultimately, he would become undefeated.
And yet… here he was, looking at the map in distress. That was because, on the map, a circle about the size of a fingernail had been drawn to indicate the territory of the herculean apes. Next, two similarly sized circles were drawn, representing the territories of the destroyed Grasshorde Tribe and Steelback Tribe. And next, just as Chen Feng was waiting for more fingernail-sized circles to be drawn, suddenly, the huge monkey waved his hand and drew a circle with a diameter of two meters.
Chen Feng: "...?"
What was this? He looked at the huge monkey, stupefied.
"This is the nearest tribe to us," the huge monkey explained calmly.
Chen Feng: "???"
Why are you so calm? The ratio between the size of your tribes… Do you not notice the issue?
"This is about right." The huge monkey studied the map and pondered deeply before nodding in confirmation. "Yes, this is about the size of their territory."
Chen Feng: "…"
He raised his head and looked at that massive circle, stupefied. Hold on, this wasn't right. If there was indeed such a large tribe nearby, why had the herculean apes not been destroyed already?
Seeing Chen Feng's confusion, the huge monkey explained, "This tribe is known as the Mountcarver Tribe. They established a huge city that welcomes all tribes, talking about something called civilization. So long as the tribes are willing to obey the rules, they are even willing to share the resources there. In any case, they are not interested in attacking us.
"What is the point of sharing resources? In any case, even if they are powerful, we feel that they are quite stupid. If we were that strong, we would have long destroyed all the tribes around us," the huge monkey said confidently.
Chen Feng had a pensive look as he listened on. Civilization, huh… So it turned out that in this era, some more intelligent life-forms had indeed been born. As for what the huge monkey had said, he ignored it. What was the point of destroying all the surrounding tribes? This was an era of gods, an era where the gods needed believers to fuel them. If they killed everyone, gods might start coming out to deal with them.
"Why did you guys not join them?" Chen Feng was curious. Since the herculean apes had been bullied so badly recently, wouldn't it have been better for them to join this city?
"We tried. They rejected us." The huge monkey was depressed. "They said that our average strength was too weak."
"Oh?" Chen Feng was astonished. "What is the requirement?"
"For the tribe to average level 1 resonance," the huge ape said with a sigh.
Chen Feng's eyes went wide. To average level 1 resonance? Did that not mean that only a race with a god that had also been developing for quite a while would be able to join this tribe? If so, the strength of this tribe…
Hiss—
He inhaled a deep breath in shock. He did not need to think much to see that this was quite a terrifying tribe, a super powerhouse. It would also be apt to say that this was a huge alliance of tribes centered around a certain powerhouse tribe.
With their present strength, they did not qualify to even touch this tribe. This was no mere striking a stone with an egg. Rather, this was more like striking a wall with sperm. Regardless of the number, it would still prove fruitless.
Shua!
Suddenly, the world around him felt so much more silent. His heart, which burned with ambition, cooled down. How was he supposed to even defeat them? Even after the growth burst Chen Feng had provided, the herculean apes only averaged level 7 awakened. Even with the allida reagent, they would only average level 12. Even the strongest of them, the huge monkey, was a mere level 20-odd awakened.
They had no resonator, yet that tribe's average was level 1 resonance. Without a doubt, the strength of this alliance of tribes was something that caused one's heart to chill at the mere thought. In short, his great path of godhood had ended so soon after it had begun? However, soon after, Chen Feng started to frown.
That was because he had still found an issue. If this alliance of tribes was represented by that huge circle on the map, why were there merely three small circles around them? It should not be possible that only the Herculean Ape Tribe, the Grasshorde Tribe, and the Steelback Tribe neighbored them.
What about the other tribes? Chen Feng looked at the huge monkey in question.
"Other tribes?" The huge monkey waved his hand dismissively. "They are too weak. With our average awakened level of 12, we are already the strongest around here. All the tribes around are tribes that have been rejected by the Mountcarvers. As such, the average levels of these tribes are all below the resonance realm. It would be way too boring to fight them."
The huge monkey surged with arrogance.
Pa!
Chen Feng slapped him grudgingly.
"What in the world are you feeling all proud for? Do you not want their resources? Without any resources, how can you even begin to start acting so smug here?" Chen Feng rolled his eyes. What the hell? This fellow's intelligence was truly questionable.
"Fine."
With great hesitation, the huge monkey drew out the positions of the other tribes on the map.
And thus, numerous other circles began to litter the map around that huge circle in the center. In fact, there were more than one thousand such tribes.
Chen Feng's eyes shone. "This is the kind of map I wanted." These tribes, and their resources... Chen Feng inhaled deeply. Each of these circles represented a tribe and thus represented a resource node. Even if not all of the resources would be suitable for him, there would definitely be some that suited him, given the quantity. If all these resources were produced into reagents to increase his strength… The mere thought caused Chen Feng to be endlessly excited.
Shua!
Waving his hand, he started drawing on the map. With their current position as the starting point, he drew a line through all those tribes before circling back to the same position. Mhm, he even drew an arrow pointing clockwise.
Chen Feng was extremely pleased. "This shall be our route. Crush them and we shall enter a brand new realm."
"All right." Even the simple-minded huge monkey was able to understand the benefits of doing this.
"And now… Time to begin!"

Chapter 761: Cleanup
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Half a year later, in Mountcarve City.
The city was bustling with all kinds of life-forms. Due to their strength, their outer forms greatly resembled humans—or rather, the gods. As such, only a small number of their respective races' traits were apparent. Within a certain crude-looking hall, a certain life-form with a long nose was staring ahead in melancholy. He looked at the entrance of the hall, anxiously waiting for something. Beside him, an underling with a big nose was waiting anxiously as well.
"Are there no tribes coming for registration?"
"Nope."
"It has been half a year since anyone came, right?"
"Half a year…"
The long-nosed guy trembled as he wondered if those tribes had been attracted by another tribe instead. One ought to know that even the weak tribes surrounding them were progressing constantly. The progress never ceased, and one day, they too would reach the resonance realm. Every time that happened, the tribe would come and apply to join them, becoming part of this city.
In the past years, there had been tribes applying nearly every month. At most, they had only ever had a gap of three months between applications. Moreover, in that instance, after almost exactly three months, four or five tribes had come and applied at one time. Yet now it had been half a year since they had received any applications…
The huge-nosed guy asked, "Is this merely a coincidence?"
"I doubt it," the long-nosed guy muttered. This world progressed along with time. Even the three-month gap they'd had back then had been a long time ago. After that, the frequency of applications had only increased, nearly reaching an average of twice per month. And now, the applications had suddenly stopped for half a year? This was most definitely not something as simple as a coincidence. There had to be a problem somewhere.
"Send out a team of scouts to check around," the long-nosed guy said as he clenched his teeth.
The big-nosed guy was somewhat worried. "Boss, if we send a team of scouts out, this will be recorded."
The long-nosed guy shook his head and solemnly said, "We can't afford to worry about that anymore. I reckon something big must have happened."
"All right." The big-nosed guy went out and started making the necessary arrangements. Soon, scouts were sent out. This group was already quite familiar with such scouting missions. As such, they immediately left and headed casually toward a nearby tribe. However, somewhat surprisingly, this nearby tribe had mysteriously vanished. Regardless of how they searched, they couldn't found the tribe.
"Are you sure you guys haven't been looking in the wrong location?"
"Absolutely sure. They should be in that general area."
"Keep searching."
"Fine."
The scouts resumed the search, yet nothing was found.
"Perhaps… they have moved?"
"I guess. Try searching for other nearby tribes."
They decided to look for a different tribe instead. And thus, the scouts set forth once again toward a different nearby tribe. However, even after two hours of travel, nothing was found apart from an endless sea of trees.
"Something isn't right. It is impossible to not find a single life-form even after traveling so far. Moreover, not a single tribe has been found either. What's going on?"
Even the scouts started to become anxious now. They felt like something had happened here.
"Report this to the higher-ups, then continue the search."
"All right."
They continued their search. One hour, two hours, 10 hours, they continued their search around their city. To avoid missing anything, they were extremely serious in their search as they combed a huge area. However, nothing whatsoever was found. All they found were endless trees. No other life-forms were in sight.
This horrified them. The search went on, and by the second day, the scouts were already in a rather bad condition.
The entire team of scouts was depressed, as they had searched every nook and cranny yet still had not found anything. The entire forest seemed devoid of life, apart from the vegetation. What exactly had happened here? They were filled with anxiousness. Right at this instant, a faint energy fluctuation was felt nearby.
At this discovery, they all became agitated.
"Found something!"
"Let's go!"
…
Amid the woods, Chen Feng's group had just finished a battle. "Is this the final tribe?"
The huge monkey nodded. "Mhm. This is the final tribe."
"Excellent." Chen Feng was very much pleased. At present, Chen Feng and the huge monkey were already somewhat different than they had been half a year ago. Within this period, the herculean apes had been led by Chen Feng as they defeated all the tribes surrounding the huge city. A total of 1,200 tribes had been defeated. Among them, 500 types of usable resources had been found. After Chen Feng's gene production, these 500 resources had displayed a rather astonishing effect.
Even though only 200 out of these 500 resources had been capable of providing a direct strength increase, even though further improvements were extremely hard for those at level 10 awakened, they had still managed to reach a terrifying level of improvement. As of present, the average strength of the herculean apes was level 90 awakened. With their innate strength, they were able to erupt with combat power comparable to level 1 resonators.
As for the huge monkey, he was now a level 96 awakened, while Chen Feng was now a level 100 awakened. As the amount of increase dropped at higher levels, they weren't too from Chen Feng. One would even think that with their innate strength, they would be a match for Chen Feng.
However, only these herculean apes themselves knew how big the gap was between them and Chen Feng. Throughout the entire journey, regardless of whether the enemies had been level 3, level 4, or even level 5 resonators, none had been able to avoid being killed by Chen Feng. Each of them had died to a single punch.
Since an indeterminate point in time, regular resonators had stopped being a match for Chen Feng. His strength was truly terrifying.
The huge monkey couldn't help but ask, "You can't be a god for real, right?"
Toward this, Chen Feng merely smiled.
God, huh…
He sensed the strength within him. A full eruption of his level 100 awakened strength would reach the strength of level 10,000 awakened after being amplified by his miniature person. This was a realm beyond even resonators. And what was the realm above resonance, then? How far was this realm from actual godhood? Chen Feng was filled with anticipation.
"Let's go." He led the monkeys as they prepared to leave.
Since all the tribes had already been cleaned up, it was time for them to leave. However, just as they turned around to leave, a figure noiselessly appeared.
"Who is it?" the huge monkey asked vigilantly.
Shua!
A neat-looking figure approached them at a rather extraordinary speed from the woods.
Chen Feng's heart trembled. "This is…" He, who was normally emotionless when facing regular regulators, had actually had his nerves stretched taut the moment this person appeared.
Tap. Tap.
That figure slowly approached one step at a time. The terrifying pressure emanating from this person…
God!
This was the only word that appeared in Chen Feng's mind as this person entered his sight. This was most definitely a god.

Chapter 762: Questioning the God
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Why was a god here? Chen Feng's body chilled. Despite his recent rapid growth, he had never once believed that he was currently capable of defeating a god. After all, they were in two completely different realms. In Chen Feng's plan, he was supposed to slowly obtain more and more resources as he grew in strength. Ultimately, his strength would start approaching that of the gods. Only then would he think of a way to challenge the gods. Not now, not like this. He hadn't wanted to encounter a god this early.
This was illogical. Why was a god even here? They were just in the surroundings of that large city. This was merely a remote region, one even the Mountcarver Tribe could not be bothered with. Why would a god be here? Chen Feng was confused.
"Is it you guys?" the god asked in an extremely gentle voice. However, it was this very gentle voice that was accompanied by horrifying killing intent. Almost instantly, all the herculean apes started prostrating on the ground. As for Chen Feng and the huge monkey, they were greatly affected by this pressure as well.
A single word… and his mere aura… to achieve all this. So this was a god? Chen Feng clenched his teeth. The huge monkey wanted to speak, but that terrifying pressure caused him to not even be able to open his mouth.
Pu!
Blood started bursting out of his body. As for the herculean ape tribesmen, they were facing imminent destruction.
Suddenly, Chen Feng spoke. "What do you mean by that?" Within him, the miniature person started syncing with him, slowly counteracting the pressure projected by the god. He knew that he could not be this god's opponent. However, he was at least able to talk.
"Huh?" The god looked at Chen Feng in astonishment. Evidently, he was curious about how this little fellow was capable of actually resisting the pressure enough to talk. One ought to know that even though this god had asked a question, he had not expected anyone to answer. Under the majestic pressure of a god, all awakened ones and resonators were but bugs. As such, they did not qualify to even answer the question of a god. And yet this little guy here was able to speak in his presence.
"Are you guys the ones that killed my believers?" the god asked with the same gentle voice. This time, the pressure he emanated became more intense. Moreover, since Chen Feng was able to talk, a huge amount of the pressure was now targeting Chen Feng.
Bang!
Terrifying pressure descended. Chen Feng could clearly feel that surging pressure. Fortunately, now that he was a level 10,000 awakened, he was able to hold on, albeit with great difficulty.
Believers… Killed his believers… Finally, Chen Feng understood. Among the tribes they had eliminated, some of them had been believers of this god. However… this was a god, right?
Before this, Chen Feng had indeed heard of the situation where, if you beat up the small guy, the big guy would step out. And if you beat up the big guy, an old man would come out. And if you beat up the old man, the ancestor would come out. After all, those people were of the same clan and it wasn't weird for them to be protective. However, he had never heard that after beating up the believers, the god would appear!
Was this god sick or something? Any god would have tens of millions of believers. Why would they even be bothered with the lives of some believers? And to reach a point where the god actually bothered to avenge the death of a small number of believers? Was this god sick? Chen Feng was collapsing.
If this was how all the gods acted, this era would probably be in great chaos. Almost every day there were countless wars between tribes. If all gods were so dedicated when it came to protecting their believers, which of them would still dare to fight? This was simply ridiculous.
Moreover, they had eliminated more than 1,000 tribes, yet this was the only god that had appeared. Chen Feng could only think of one reason for a god to appear as a result of his actions. He recalled that in the legends of his previous life, there had been a certain god with an incredible appetite for sex, who had left his seeds in nearly all the races, giving birth to countless children.
"Among these tribes, some were your children?" Chen Feng asked, distressed. This was truly unlucky of them.
Shua!
Suddenly, their surrounding seemed to go silent at what Chen Feng had said. The god's always-calm expression changed slightly. He looked at this youth that seemed to have accepted his fate, and instantly, the god frowned. As he pondered Chen Feng's words, his killing intent became even more intense.
"You dare insult a god?" A god was supposed to be an existence high and mighty above everyone else. He did not know what this fellow was thinking. He also did not know why this guy had related this to his children even though he had been asking about his believers. Nevertheless, it was evident that this guy was insulting a god.
Bang!
Terrifying godly power rippled out. Finally, the god was furious.
Huh?
Chen Feng was stupefied. So he had guessed wrongly? Hold on… If he had truly gotten it wrong…
"As a god, you are actually lowering yourself and getting involved in the disputes of those mortals far below you. Is this not too excessive?" howled Chen Feng.
Shua!
At these words, the attack paused right before it reached Chen Feng. Chen Feng's heart trembled. Splendid. Since this god was willing to listen to him, all was not lost.
Chen Feng continued speaking loudly. "You, exalted one, are an almighty and great god. We of the bottom kill each other for the sake of our respective beliefs, for our respective gods! If the gods come out each time some of their believers are killed, what will become of this world? After you kill us, should our god take revenge for us? Then, will all the gods will start lowering themselves, getting pulled into the affairs of mortals?
"Earlier, I thought that some of the believers were your children and had resigned myself to this fate. But since none of them were your children, you should tell me the reason for this, right? I know, as a god, you don't even need to answer the questions of us lowly mortals. However, we truly can't accept dying without even knowing the reason, or perhaps dying merely because we have killed some believers… This is truly quite uncalled for!"
To maintain his momentum, he had even forced all the words out in one go. He was quite afraid that even a slight pause would cause him to be directly killed by this god. He did not know if this god would listen to them. However, what he had uttered was precisely the question that the herculean apes had. Even if they had to die, they needed to know the reason, right? Even more so when a god was the one doing the killing.
Chen Feng looked straight at the god, hoping to get an answer. However, somewhat surprisingly, the god's killing intent had increased even further. Moreover, he was currently gazing at Chen Feng with an odd gaze.
Mhm?
Chen Feng's scalp went numb. Had he spoken wrongly? He pondered the matter and could not think of anything he had said that would have provoked this god to such an extent. Perhaps his tone of voice had been too harsh? His heart chilled. God… Facing such an almighty existence, they did not even qualify to converse with him. Was this god merely feeling insulted because a mere mortal had had the audacity to converse with a god? If so, Chen Feng could only smile bitterly.
The god's flat voice resounded. "You want a reason? I will give you one. Struggles between believers occur every single day. There will come new believers, and believers will die. I naturally wouldn't come looking for you because of this."
Why, then? Chen Feng was filled with doubt. Even the herculean apes were filled with doubt. Apart from killing some believers, they hadn't done anything else recently.
"A god should not come down for the death of some believers, and a god wouldn't do so. You are indeed right about this."
The god had expressed agreement to what Chen Feng had said. However, for reasons unknown, this only caused the bad feeling Chen Feng had to intensify.
"But…" The god gazed at Chen Feng grudgingly as his calm voice was suddenly filled with blame. "You guys can't keep going about killing the believers of a single god, right? I had a hundred thousand believers, yet in half a year, you killed fifty thousand of them. Aren't you being a tad bit too excessive?"
Toward the end, the god's killing intent was already rocketing.
Chen Feng: "…"
Huge monkey: "…"
Chen Feng was thoroughly stupefied. Fifty thousand? He thought about it and recalled that during this half a year, they had indeed eliminated over a thousand tribes. Some of the tribes had had quite a few resonators, the majority of them being level 1 resonators. Apart from dealing with the leaders, Chen Feng had hardly made a move. However, when the herculean apes had reached a point where all of them were capable of contending against level 1 resonators, they had started crushing their opponents with extreme ease, not a single one of the enemy resonators had been able to escape them.
As such, it was quite probable that they had killed a total of fifty thousand resonators so far. However, they had never imagined that all fifty thousand of them were the believers of the same god. What the hell? It was over. Chen Feng's heart chilled. Suddenly, he recalled the words that a certain someone had uttered in his previous life. Out of ten-odd sheep, only one was shaved excessively. When that happened, it would be so extremely striking no one would miss it. And now, Chen Feng was in the same situation. During this half year, all the resonators he had killed were actually the believers of a single god.

Chapter 763: Believer
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Shua!
The world seemed to lapse into silence, and a mood one would describe as awkward pervaded the air. Chen Feng wanted to say something, but he could find nothing to say. It was a mistake? He had not been aware that those people were this god's believers? If he dared say this, he would probably be immediately killed.
Even if he himself were the god in question, he would probably be angry. For this god to have the patience to explain the reason to him, this was already a rather kind god. However, Chen Feng still grumbled. Couldn't this god have spread his believers around more rather than have them all so concentrated? Of course, these words were only thought, not spoken.
The huge monkey by his side was instead the one to talk. "Why are you so stupid? Even us monkeys know that you shouldn't put all your eggs in the same basket."
It's over. Chen Feng's heart chilled. He raised his head. Indeed. The god's killing intent was surging. Under this terrifying pressure, the air itself almost coagulated, to the point that even their breathing was now impeded. It seemed like this god was now truly angry.
God damn you, huge monkey!
At this time, high above the starry sky, a throne hovered. A certain person was seated there as he overlooked this world. Suddenly, he seemed to see something, and a smile formed on his face.
"Ah, I can't allow you to kill him. After all…"
He rotated the ring on his finger lightly as faint godly power surged out. Instantly, the throne started flickering before vanishing once again.
…
In the forest outside Mountcarve City, the furious god finally made his move. Instantly, his terrifying godly power charged at the huge monkey. Chen Feng sighed. Even though the attack was aimed at the huge monkey, without a doubt, not a single one of them would be left alive. Thus, they had no choice but to fight it out with all they had.
Bang!
Chen Feng erupted in strength. He bloomed with all his power, unleashing a terrifying might with his miniature person. Instantly, an overwhelming might surged out of him. This was his strongest combat form, a form that was capable of instantly killing any resonator in existence, or even those above the resonance realm. This was his confidence.
But of course, his present goal was to be able to block even one of this god's attacks.
Bang!
For the first time, his attack clashed with the god's attack.
Ka!
A crisp sound rang out.
What he saw next was the sight of the attack he was so confident in immediately collapsing. Under the attack of the godly power, his attack could not even put up a fight; it was totally destroyed.
Ka! Ka!
His entire attack shattered like glass. As for that god's godly power, it was not even dented. Was this the strength of a god? Chen Feng could do nothing but to give a bitter smile. Encountering a god at his present level was truly no different than encountering a dead end. They could only watch on blankly as the god's attack reached them.
And then… the attack stopped.
Huh?
Chen Feng's heart trembled. He raised his head and noted that the god was still filled with anger and killing intent, yet at the same time, he seemed to be hesitating somewhat, as he had actually stopped his attack at this moment. Hope was in sight! Chen Feng had no idea what had happened, yet it was evident that this god was now hesitating.
"Your strength is not bad." The god held a grudging look. Evidently, the strength Chen Feng had erupted with had stunned him. Even if this strength was still nothing to him, it was nevertheless still remarkable for a mortal.
The god looked at the herculean apes. "You guys are not bad either." They lacked godly power and resonance, yet they had been able to erupt with power comparable to resonators. What did this signify? This signified that the moment they resonated, their strength would reach a terrifying realm. All these fellows here were seeds with great potential, whether it was Chen Feng, the huge monkey, or the other herculean apes.
Therefore, even though this god truly wanted to kill them all, at the final moment, he had chosen to listen to reason instead of acting based on his emotions. He had decided to convert these people into his own. After all, the losses he had suffered were way too great.
"Are you all… willing to be my believers?" the god asked coldly.
Bang!
The hearts of Chen Feng and the others jolted violently. Believers! They exchanged glances and were able to see joy in each other's eyes.
"I agree," Chen Feng said without hesitation. What kind of joke was this? This was not a situation where he could hesitate.
The god nodded. "Very good. Let me bestow upon you all the power of gods."
Hum—
Faint godly power rippled out. Next, a translucent contract took form in the sky. With that, the herculean apes and Chen Feng officially became the believers of this god. Almost instantaneously, the strength of all the herculean apes rocketed. They, who had already been at the peak of the awakened realm before, instantly broke through under the stimulation of the godly power. They entered the resonance realm, yet their levels were still increasing without stop.
Level 1 resonance, level 2 resonance, level 3 resonance, all the way to level 9 resonance. Even the god was startled at this sight. One ought to know that this wasn't happening to only one of them. Rather, it was happening to the entire tribe. Godly power had always been capable of providing a huge boost in strength. Now that the herculean apes, having been stuck at the peak awakened realm for so long, had finally obtained the nourishment of godly power, their strength rocketed to an unprecedented height.
Now, they wouldn't be too far off from the peak of the resonance realm. As for the huge monkey, there was no suspense whatsoever. He was able to easily enter the peak of the resonance realm. That coupled with his innate strength as a herculean ape would ensure that his combat power was even higher than a regular peak resonator.
How powerful. Even the god was shocked. He suddenly found that in this short period of one minute, these monkeys had all become the core of his pool of believers, becoming the strongest tribe among his believers. How lamentable. The god mused that his decision to listen to reason had indeed been correct.
While the god was rejoicing in his decision to not kill them, he looked over at Chen Feng. He knew that this guy was the leader of these monkeys, the strongest among them. If the herculean apes could reach level 9 resonance and the huge monkey could reach level 10, what about Chen Feng? He looked over at Chen Feng expectantly.
One minute, two minutes, five minutes… Time passed, yet nothing happened. The god even wondered if he had forgotten to bestow his godly power upon Chen Feng. As such, he sent yet another wave of godly power over to Chen Feng.
One minute.
Two minutes.
…
Suddenly, the world seemed to lapse into silence. Nothing seemed to be happening to Chen Feng. That godly power capable of granting those monkeys an immense growth in strength had not taken effect on Chen Feng. Even Chen Feng himself was extremely stupefied. What was going on? Was he so powerful that that amount of godly power was not sufficient for him? After thinking about it, the god decided to personally transfer a gust of godly power directly into Chen Feng's forehead.
Hum—
The godly power pulsed.
With his very own eyes, he watched on as that gust of godly power entered Chen Feng's body before vanishing. Nothing was once again happening to Chen Feng. Just like that, the godly power was gone.
This time, the god was truly dumbfounded. What was going on?
"Hu—"
The god took in a deep breath. Once again, he sent out a gust of godly power. This time, a strand of his consciousness latched onto the godly power as he personally observed it enter Chen Feng's body before slowly entering Chen Feng's sea of consciousness and preparing to merge with him.
Everything seemed to be progressing correctly so far. And next…
Shua!
Everything turned black. He lost his connection with that strand of consciousness.

Chapter 764: Becoming a Scapegoat Out of the Blue
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Hiccup!
The flustered Chen Feng watched on as the miniature person within him hiccupped. Holy shit. This miniature person had actually devoured the godly power sent by the god. At first, he had also been waiting expectantly for the godly power to descend upon him. But then, the moment the godly power had entered his body, it had been devoured by the miniature person.
In fact, that miniature person did not have a separate consciousness of its own. Rather, this was an instinctual behavior. This was no different than how an experienced racer would react instinctively in a lot of situations.
But... what exactly was this miniature person? This pirated version of a nascent soul had this function? Was this miniature person trying to reach godhood or something? Chen Feng was speechless. When the second wave of godly power entered him, Chen Feng watched on with his full attention. He noted that although the godly power seemed to have been absorbed by the miniature person, the fact was that the miniature person had not moved at all. And that familiar hiccup…
Hum...
Behind the miniature person, a red radiance appeared.
Chen Feng was surprised. "Xiao Ying?"
Swish!
The red glow pulsed as Xiao Ying slowly crawled over, his belly bulging to the point that he was almost round.
"It is indeed you."
Chen Feng was overjoyed to see this. As of late, as both he and Xiao Ying increased his strength, Xiao Ying had entered into a slumber. Unexpectedly, with the godly power as the trigger, Xiao Ying had actually awoken. Moreover, the Xiao Ying of the past, who could only have consumed consciousness and energy, was now able to consume godly power as well. The upgrade he had obtained during this slumber seemed rather overpowered.
Hum—
Yet more godly power arrived. Xiao Ying glowed brightly in excitement. Alas, due to overeating, he could only crawl slowly this time. As Chen Feng saw this, he hastily pulled Xiao Ying back.
"If you are already full, stop eating." Chen Feng wiped his sweat. "This is different than the past. It's not an enemy attack. Hide yourself first."
Xiao Ying understood what Chen Feng was saying. With a swish, both Xiao Ying and the miniature person vanished into Chen Feng's sea of consciousness.
The new wave of godly power entered with a strand of consciousness from the god and swept around. After confirming that there was nothing in here, the godly power dispersed and slowly blended into Chen Feng's body.
Hum—
Chen Feng's body started pulsing with faint godly power.
"Success?"
The god was surprised. He had expected it to fail again. If that had truly happened, he would have begun studying this fellow to figure out what was going on. Surprisingly, it had actually succeeded. This only proved that this fellow's talent was astonishingly bad. Even the huge monkey had required only one percent of what he had inserted into Chen Feng to progress.
He had initially believed that this Chen Feng would be the strongest after resonance, since he was the strongest of the herculean apes. Now, though, it seemed like he had been overthinking things. The god shook his head at the thought of Chen Feng's low talent. He no longer intended to provide Chen Feng with any assistance.
Generally speaking, after the contract of gods was established, the resonators would progress in strength independently based on their comprehension. In fact, a god taking the initiative to help his believers achieve resonance was unprecedented.
Yet even with his assistance, this Chen Feng had only achieved resonance with such difficulty. If he had to comprehend godly power by himself… The god shook his head in regret. He was certain that this fellow would be forever stuck at this level.
At present, Chen Feng's strength started rocketing after achieving resonance. His strength, previously that of level 100 awakened, increased rapidly, pushing him to the peak of resonance. From his aura, he was much stronger than even the huge monkey. However, the god merely shook his head. What a pity, for such a good seed to have such disastrous talent.
"You all…"
At this point, the god's first reaction was to turn around and leave. After all, believers would normally be left to develop by themselves. However, as he thought of the situation here in the areas surrounding Mountcarve City and the potential demonstrated by the herculean apes, he decided to take them along instead.
"Come with me. There is no longer anything of value for you guys here."
Chen Feng and the rest obeyed. For them, being able to stay alive was already a great thing.
Shua!
The god led them away. After a long time, a group of people appeared where Chen Feng's group had been before.
"They… should've left, right?"
"Mhm."
"Did he notice us?"
"I think so… He is, after all, a god."
"Why did he spare our lives, then?"
"Perhaps it was because of our uniforms showing that we are from Mountcarve City. Or perhaps he simply disdains to do such a thing toward the likes of us."
"I guess so."
"Anyone know which god that was?"
"Nope."
"Well, let's report it to the higher-ups, then. This is no longer something we can get involved in."
"True… the disappearance of over a thousand tribes around the city might have something to do with this god as well. It has been way too long since any of the gods have dared to do something like this. This is too excessive."
"I suppose yet another bloodbath is about to start."
"War of the gods, huh?"
They conversed in low voices. These people were precisely the scouts from Mountcarve City. They had followed the trail along the way until they had finally heard something, at which point they had rushed over here. Unexpectedly, they had encountered something like this. They had witnessed an entire powerful tribe being recruited by a god.
That was not all. The tribes in the surrounding areas were traditionally their source of recruitment. Yet here was this god, recruiting the entirety of the tribe and even taking them away with him. This was too excessive. As they thought of the thousand-plus tribes that had vanished, they seemed to have finally found an answer.
…
In Mountcarve City, the news brought back by the scouts shocked the entire city. As this was reported, the several gods of Mountcarve City were furious.
"What are you saying? A god took away all those tribes?"
"He has broken the taboo."
"Gods should never get involved in the fights between believers. This fellow has crossed the line."
"He is seeking death!"
"Perhaps this is a new god that does not know about the rules?"
"Since he does not know the rules, let us teach him a lesson. Even if Lord Sin God does not allow fighting between gods, I don't mind becoming a god that is eternally without believers."
"Get the people to start preparing."
"Mhm…"
Mountcarve City had around one million believers. Due to their above-average quality, they were quite lacking on the quantity side.
This low-population issue was further compounded by the fact that this was an alliance of tribes, so various different species lived here, resulting in a low reproduction rate. That was why this city relied on outside tribes as a source of recruitment. Yet now, this source of recruitment had been destroyed. How could Mountcarve City not be angered by the destruction of their very foundation?
"Investigate that god. After that, we can teach him a lesson," a sinister voice ordered. This caused the inhabitants of Mountcarve City to be filled with excitement. Finally, a war between the gods would start. By observing this battle between gods, they, the resonators, might be able to gain some insight and improve. This was quite a rare opportunity.
…
At this time, the god that had brought Chen Feng's group away was still unaware that he had been made a scapegoat. He brought them to his palace. He had carved this palace out from a mountain with his own godly power; it was supernaturally finely crafted.
"This is my shrine," the god introduced proudly.
The huge monkey scratched his head. "A mountain is your shrine?" This so-called palace was not lavishly decorated at all. Everything within was made out of stone.
"This is a palace," the god said as his expression darkened. He took in a deep breath and said, "This place has exquisite scenery, abundant energy, and rich resources. The entire shrine is incomparably massive and spectacularly beautiful."
"But…" The huge monkey was puzzled. "It is still a mountain."
"…" The god glanced at the huge monkey, faint killing intent in his gaze.

Chapter 765: Training Agency
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Cough, cough." Chen Feng gave the huge monkey a kick before shifting the topic. "Looks like Lord God prefers peaceful environments."
"Mhm," the god answered with a dark expression. If it wasn't for the excellent innate talent of the herculean apes, he would have eliminated them long ago. Those bastards, daring to speak in such a manner to a god!
The god brought them to the palace. "Sit." The palace was extremely huge, so huge that even though they numbered in the tens of thousands, they were still comparatively tiny.
The god spoke expressionlessly. "Normally, only my apostles can enter the shrine. I have allowed you guys entry only because you guys might be able to become my apostles in the future."
"Apostles?"
The huge monkey scratched his head. For the huge monkey, whom had still been an awakened one half a year ago, "apostle" was evidently a rather unfamiliar realm.
"Above resonance is the apostle realm. To be precise, using terms you guys are familiar with, an apostle is the spokesperson of a god." Thankfully, this god did not mind explaining. "Resonance is the realm of those who only have just established a connection with a god. As for the apostle—or spokesperson—realm, it is a new realm that one can enter after one's comprehension of godly power reaches a brand-new height."
Chen Feng displayed his understanding. "I see. Apostles are normally also spokespersons of their god." If this system was likened to a sect, the awakened ones would be the outer disciples, who were in charge of odd jobs. As for resonators, they would be inner disciples, while the apostles would be the elites of the sect, like elder apprentice brothers.
"Generally, when one reaches the peak of the resonance realm, one will be qualified to become an apostle. This new realm signifies that one will be able to manipulate an even higher tier of the god's godly power," the god slowly explained. By the side, Chen Feng gained understanding. Apostles… A higher tier of power?
"Naturally, not everyone can become an apostle. To become one, talent is important. Upon reaching the peak resonance realm, the god will select the strongest ones and bestow upon them the qualification for becoming an apostle." the god explained. At this point, he gave Chen Feng a profound gaze. Evidently, Chen Feng was, in his opinion, a person not qualified for this glory. Although Chen Feng was sufficiently powerful, it was unfortunate that even if Chen Feng were to be qualified for apostlehood, his own talent would ensure he failed to reach the apostle realm. He would require too much work on the god's part.
The god paused, not knowing what else to explain. "Do you still have anything to ask?"
In fact, these things he had just explained were supposed to be general knowledge. This god felt quite helpless that he had stumbled upon this bunch that knew nothing. As a god, this was his very first time explaining these things.
"Can I become an apostle?" the huge monkey asked while smacking his chest. He was now a peak resonator with terrifying strength. As such, he had no hesitation when it came to challenging the nest realm.
The god pondered and decided to give him a chance. "You can try later."
The huge monkey beamed. "Many thanks." He naturally felt incredibly happy now. It was truly unexpected that in a short half year, he would be able to start challenging the apostle realm.
Chen Feng wanted to try as well. "How about me?"
The god sighed. "…I will give you a chance as well, then."
At this time, the other herculean apes that were similarly level 10 resonators, in their excitement, wanted to sign up as well. However, after giving it some thought, the god merely shook his head and said, "We will talk about you guys after the two of them have tried."
At this, the noise died down. However, everyone was still endlessly excited. By the side, Chen Feng was able to get the hidden meaning. What the god meant was that if these two failed, there was no point in the other herculean apes trying. It was evident that for a god, apostles were rather important.
Apostle, eh?
Chen Feng's gaze sharpened. In his impasse, he had managed to transform peril into gain. And now even Xiao Ying had awakened. As such, Chen Feng was filled with confidence. The truth was that he wasn't that bothered about the identity of an apostle. However, if he was granted the qualification, he would be able to verify his current strength in the trial. He truly wanted to know how strong he was.
Suddenly, Chen Feng raised his hand. "I have one more question." It was not easy for him to come across such a down-to-earth god, and thus, he had decided to clear all his doubts while he had the chance.
"Say it," said the god.
Chen Feng asked, "Based on my guess, Mountcarve City probably exists for the sake of gathering believers as well. However, why did they give up on the small tribes surrounding them? Why were the tribes surrounding them allowed to believe in other gods? Even if a lot of them were your believers, there should have been believers of other gods as well, right? And if those believers had joined Mountcarve City, whose believers would they have been then? I am quite confused."
Shua!
At this question, the god's gaze became sharp. He fixed his gaze on Chen Feng for several seconds before shutting his eyes, calming himself. Evidently, he had never expected that a member of the Herculean Ape Tribe would have the kind of vision required to ask such a question. This was a question so very close to his heart.
After a short contemplation, he decided to tell Chen Feng. Perhaps… "The moment believers join the city, they become the believers of the gods there."
It was because Chen Feng was the very first life-form he had encountered capable of an exchange on this level. Or perhaps it was because the life-forms here, his believers included, were all too simple minded, driving him into boredom.
"Become believers of other gods?" Chen Feng's heart trembled. Did this not mean that these small tribes were in fact just there to produce believers?
The god sighed. "Yes, we are indeed producing believers for them. To enter the resonance realm, awakened ones need to sign a contract with a god and fuse with the god's godly power. This is also the step where the exhaustion of godly power is at its highest, due to the preparation of the contract. Even though it's a contract that gods normally have several copies of prepared in advance, when the number of believers reaches the hundred thousands, millions, or even ten millions, the rate of exhaustion becomes rather terrifying.
"Therefore, they decided to leave these awakened ones around their city and let us minor gods do the heavy lifting for them. When those believers become strong enough to join the city, those gods harvest the fruits of our labor."
As the god's explanation reached this point, his expression dimmed. Chen Feng's heart jolted. He had never expected that there was such a system among the gods. So it turned out that the hard work of these minor gods ended up being nothing but a gift to the major gods?
"But…" Chen Feng could not understand. Since that was the case, what was the point of working so hard? Why agree to keep doing it?
The god knew what Chen Feng wanted to ask. "Why do we compromise? This is the origin of the rule that only tribes with an average strength of level 1 resonance can join." The god paused. "From the moment when the first resonator is created until the moment when the tribe's average strength reaches level 1 resonance, these few years of development are the years where their faith belongs to us."
"…" Finally, Chen Feng understood. This could be likened to the major gods eating meat while the minor gods drank soup. If they disagreed… perhaps those minor gods would not be able to get even a single believer. Suddenly, Chen Feng recalled a certain term: market monopoly! Holy shit, these gods were quite smart, eh?
That was also why this god had been so greedy when looking at the Herculean Ape Tribe. He had even lowered himself to personally bring them to his palace. Evidently, he was trying to build up his core with these monkeys. After all, all their believers in the past…
In short, these minor gods were like the educational institutions or training agencies from Chen Feng's past life, which instructed and trained people who would be absorbed into other institutions or organizations after graduation.

Chapter 766: So There Actually Is One
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
So this is what a god is.
Chen Feng was somewhat stupefied. This was completely different from the almighty image he had of the gods. It was no wonder that this god here could be so down to earth, wasting his time on them. Production of believers… Chen Feng shook his head. It was no wonder that the deaths of tens of thousands of believers had been sufficient to bring this god out.
Around Mountcarve City, there had been over a thousand tribes with countless life-forms. However, those able to become believers were only resonators, which had only numbered in the tens of thousands. Even more lamentable was the fact that they had still had to keep the number of believers under control.
That was because the moment the number of believers increased excessively, the tribe as a whole would become too strong and would start averaging in the resonance realm. When that happened, those believers would go join Mountcarve City instead.
Things were truly hard for the minor gods. This was truly what Chen Feng felt. He had never expected that even an illustrious god would live such a miserable life. Naturally, this "miserable" was in comparison to the other gods. After all, regardless of how miserable a god was, they were still a god.
Suddenly, Chen Feng asked, "What does an apostle mean to a god?" He refused to believe that apostles were just normal believers.
"…" The god looked at Chen Feng with a complicated gaze. This fellow's wit had truly astonished him. He paused and took in the look of anticipation all the monkeys had before saying, "Apostles have an extraordinary meaning attached to them."
Indeed. Chen Feng's heart trembled.
"Apostles can provide an even larger portion of faith to their god," the god slowly explained. "Apostles are the core of a god's force. The more apostles a god has, the stronger the god's godly power and the more powerful the god. Moreover, unlike resonators, apostles can't shift their allegiance. Therefore, apostles are much more valuable than ordinary believers. However… there are extremely harsh requirements for becoming an apostle. It is much harder than you guys imagine. Naturally, countless gods will fight over a person capable of actually becoming an apostle."
As the god finished his explanation, he glanced over at Chen Feng. It was clear that he was referring to these herculean apes. He knew that this huge monkey was completely clueless and this fellow called Chen Feng, this herculean ape that did not resemble an ape, would be the one making decisions in their stead. If, after this, they decided to leave… The god already had his plans for that.
I see. Finally, Chen Feng understood clearly. In that case, everything was understandable now.
The moment one became an apostle, one would be imprinted with their god's brand. This would allow them access to even higher tiers of the god's godly power. In return, this person would supply the god with faith. The stronger the god became, the stronger the apostle would become.
This was why this god had taken such a huge risk and brought them all here. After all, the 5,000 near-apostles the herculean apes had in their ranks were truly too astonishing. This was also why this god had been so down to earth when conversing with Chen Feng, even if this god was of the opinion that Chen Feng was talentless in godly power cultivation and would never be able to ascend into the apostle realm. These 5,000 monkeys alone were Chen Feng's biggest bargaining chip.
"I understand now." Chen Feng looked at the god. "So how do I go about becoming an apostle?"
Huh?
The god was somewhat stunned. He had not expected Chen Feng not to say anything else. After all, a lot of people with the potential to become an apostle normally sought as strong a god as they could. Yet this guy… However, as the god thought about it, he understood the reason for Chen Feng's decision. Indeed, it was much easier to converse with an intelligent person.
The god smiled. "Follow me." Suddenly, he felt like even if Chen Feng couldn't become an apostle, he should still keep the man around. Or perhaps he would search for a treasure or the like capable of helping Chen Feng become an apostle, as Chen Feng was truly an intelligent person. After all, in this wide world, even a god needed someone he could converse with, right?
After walking past the hall, they reached a massive public square. Within this shrine carved out of an entire mountain, what was most lacking was space. In the huge public square was a flickering shadow that streaked around at an astonishing speed.
"The process of becoming an apostle is quite simple. So long as one reaches the peak of the resonance realm and reaches a certain standard in their comprehension of godly power, one will gain the qualification to become an apostle. As for the rest, the god deals with it. Each god has their own method of testing the standard of their believers' godly power. As for my standard…" The god pointed at the shadow in the public square. "Defeat him and you shall become my apostle."
Shua!
The shadow stopped moving.
The swiftly moving figure instantly stood still, allowing everyone a clear look at it. This was actually a wooden puppet! A robot? Chen Feng was astonished. Worthy of being a god indeed, to be able to create a robot-like thing. Even though this puppet was made of wood, it had high agility and its usage of godly power had reached an extremely high level. It seemed like this would be this god's trial.
The huge monkey was excited. "Let me give it a try." Ever since his strength had rocketed, he hadn't had a chance to fight seriously. And today he had suddenly jumped from peak awakened to peak resonance in one go; he was itching for a fight with his new strength.
"Come!" he howled.
Bang!
The huge monkey started heading toward the public square.
"Howl—"
The huge monkey jumped in while howling in excitement as surging godly power pulsed out of him with the ferocity of the War God. That shadow moved so fast that its actual position could not be determined. However, it did not matter, since the huge monkey was large enough to cover more ground.
Bang!
A terrifying might descended. All the herculean apes watched on in anticipation.
Bang!
With a loud boom, the huge monkey's body was flung back at a speed even faster than the speed at which he had descended earlier. Instantly, he was blasted back to the point that his body was deeply embedded in the mountain, leaving behind a humanoid-shaped hole. All the herculean apes were alarmed when the saw this. Only after a long time did the huge monkey manage to crawl out of that hole, horror plastered on his face.
"This… is the strength of an apostle?" exclaimed the huge monkey, yet soon after, the expression on his face was replaced by that of excitement as he said, "How strong! I will become an apostle one day as well!"
By the side, the god's lip curled up into an almost unnoticeable smile. In fact, this fight had been started to show these fellows the true strength of an apostle. He wanted to show them that even though he was a minor god, he was nevertheless still a god.
The god glanced over at Chen Feng. "Do you want to give it a try as well?"
"Okay." Chen Feng entered the public square, seemingly in a hesitant manner. He knew that this god was doing this to let them know the difference in strength between them, after which he'd give them some benefits to win their hearts. However… Chen Feng clenched his fists tightly. He truly wanted to verify his present strength, to see for himself how far apart he was from an apostle.
After all, even before having godly power, he had already been capable of erupting with the power of a level 10,000 awakened. And now, as a peak resonator, if his strength was amplified by the miniature person within him…
Chen Feng arrived. Before everyone's gaze, right before the puppet reached Chen Feng, he inhaled deeply and, with a serene expression, punched out. This was the strongest punch he had ever thrown.
Bang!
With a loud boom, that streak was immediately stopped in its tracks.
Bang!
Next, wood shavings exploded out, followed by the explosion of the wood puppet, leaving behind a pile of broken wood on the ground.
Knock. Knock. Knock.
The wood dropped onto the ground while crisp sounds echoed about in the air.
Shua!
Suddenly, the entire world seemed to have lapsed into silence. The god, who had initially been watching on proudly, suddenly trembled. A look of disbelief was in his eyes, which had since gone wide. For the first time, an expression of utter shock appeared on his face.
Ah…
Chen Feng felt somewhat awkward.
"This…" Chen Feng shrugged. "It was an accident."
"You…" The god took in a deep breath, seemingly trying to suppress something. After a long time, he finally opened his mouth and said with an ashen complexion, "Congratulations on your success. From today onward, you are my apostle, my one and only apostle."
One and only…
Chen Feng was astonished. "You do not even have one apostle?"
"I did have one." The god had a gloomy expression. "He was a treant leader, yet he is no more."
Chen Feng blanked. What does that mean? He remained confused until he followed the god's gaze and looked at the pile of wood on the ground. Instantly, he was startled. Holy shit, it couldn't be…This puppet had in fact been a treant?

Chapter 767: Another Accident
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
It turned out that Chen Feng was the one to succeed. Even the god was caught by surprise. No matter how he looked at it, Chen Feng's body size did not look like it contained such astonishing strength. However, it was this very Chen Feng that had instantly defeated his only apostle. One ought to know that the treant had been an apostle, and what did that signify? It signified that the treant's strength far surpassed these resonators.
The god had allowed them the trial of fighting this treant to show them how strong an apostle was, to consolidate his prestige, and to give them something to look forward to. That was what he had intended. Yet now his apostle had been defeated by Chen Feng.
This gave him a rather uncomfortable feeling. Among the 5,000 herculean apes, Chen Feng was the one he was the least optimistic about. It wasn't because of his strength. Rather, it was because of his poor talent, so poor that it was almost incurable. One ought to know that of the two absolute requirements for one to become an apostle, one of them was to fully comprehend the godly power of their god.
Yet this Chen Feng… With his poor talent, would he be able to comprehend the godly to the point that he could become an apostle? The god doubted it. However, since he had already promised to make those that passed this trail into apostles, he could not go back on his words. Furthermore, if he did not turn Chen Feng into his apostle, he might not even have a single apostle left.
"Come." The god had come to a decision. "Assume the correct posture. Yes, this is correct. I am coming."
The god inhaled deeply. He pointed his finger at Chen Feng's forehead, and his finger started flickering with a faint glow.
Hum—
A contract of the gods appeared. The contract this time was not a regular contract. Rather, this was a true-locked contract, an apostle's contract. The moment this contract was signed, Chen Feng would be his apostle.
The god pointed. "Go." The apostle's contract entered Chen Feng's body and started operating.
Bang!
His godly power surged.
"It's starting."
Chen Feng's heart trembled. He was aware of what this god was thinking. However, he wasn't worried. The reason for what had happened previously was Xiao Ying devouring the godly power. This time, he had already ensured that Xiao Ying would stay quiet and would not indiscriminately eat random stuff.
Therefore, he should be able to smoothly enter the apostle realm, giving this god a shock. Chen Feng was still quite a prideful person.
It would surely be quite an experience to witness a god's shocked expression. Alas, even as the apostle's contract entered his body, Chen Feng found in astonishment that he still had no reaction.
…
Hey? Instinctively, Chen Feng looked into his sea of consciousness. This was not right. Xiao Ying was obviously not doing anything. So what had happened to the godly power… As Chen Feng took a glimpse into his sea of consciousness, he was instantly dumbfounded.
There, all the godly power vanished the moment it neared the miniature person. All the godly power had been absorbed by the miniature person.
Chen Feng was stupefied. Holy shit, this miniature person truly could absorb godly power? Suddenly, he recalled that, due to Xiao Ying's appearance, he had believed that Xiao Ying was the reason his body had been unable to absorb godly power. Unexpectedly, his body truly couldn't absorb any, since it was all absorbed by the miniature person.
Why was this happening? Chen Feng was doubtful. He could not make sense of this. The only thing that happened when this miniature person absorbed godly power was him not obtaining godly power for himself, halting his progress. There were no other benefits. Furthermore, he couldn't even make use of the godly power the miniature person had absorbed. He had no way of making this miniature person materialize in the outside world to fight for him, even though he truly wished he could.
Chen Feng sighed. "Dude, you are dragging me down here…" He had never expected that this miniature person, which had always been so helpful, would be such a letdown at such a crucial moment. The godly power flowed in without stop, yet it was the same as throwing stones into a sea.
…
The god's expression was turning unsightly as well. He knew that Chen Feng's talent in godly power was poor. However, he had never expected it to be this poor. Previously, it had already been quite hard to push Chen Feng into the resonance realm. Now that he wanted to push Chen Feng into the apostle realm, it was indeed much more difficult than he had imagined. Unfortunately, he could only continue.
Bang!
Godly power surged out without stop. The god clenched his teeth and sent even more godly power out.
He had decided to use his powerful godly power to push Chen Feng into the apostle realm no matter what. And thus, a terrifying number of waves of godly power surged in. All of them entered Chen Feng's sea of consciousness… the boundless godly power.
Bang! Bang!
Within his sea of consciousness, the miniature person welcomed the waves of godly power. The godly power that arrived in waves halted the instant they encountered the miniature person, then vanished. No matter how much godly power arrived, this continued. Chen Feng's sea of consciousness remained calm; not a single wave remained.
…
Time slowly passed. One minute… Two minutes… Three minutes…
"What are you guys doing?" The huge monkey scratched his had with a puzzled expression. "Lord God, hurry up and finish the contract."
The huge monkey was truly confused. This god had said that he would turn Chen Feng into his apostle using the contract. Yet why was it that they both had been maintaining that weird pose for so long without moving?
"…" As the god heard this, his face darkened. Even he wanted to ask the same question. The contract had obviously been sent out. His godly power had clearly been unleashed without holding anything back. Why? Why was nothing happening? This fellow… The god's expression became scarily unsightly.
"…" Chen Feng was feeling rather awkward as well. What could he do? He was clear on what was going on. As such, after careful consideration, he cautiously said, "Why don't we forget about this?"
Instantly, the god was infuriated. "Forget?" Are you looking down on me now? I am a god!
He was furious. He felt like he had lost the prestige he should have as a god. All other gods only needed to casually wave their hands to make anything happen. Yet he, similarly a god, had failed every single time he had tried to show off. Moreover, so many awkward incidents seemed to be happening. Even worse was the fact that he had even lost an apostle to this. Was stopping even an option for him now? No, it was not! He had no choice but to grit his teeth and proceed.
The god spoke coldly. "I said that I will turn you into an apostle. I will do what I said."
Bang!
A holy beam appeared. The god had actually intensified his godly power, unleashing his full power upon Chen Feng's body. At present, the god was shrouded in a dazzling radiance; he appeared incomparably divine. As for the herculean apes, they all became filled with expectation when they saw this. So this was the so-called apostle's contract?
Only Chen Feng knew clearly what was going on. Somewhat awkwardly, he watched on as the waterfall of godly power entered his sea of consciousness and vanished. So what if the amount of godly power was increased? It could not even start fusing with his sea of consciousness. It all…
Just as Chen Feng was about to say something, suddenly, he felt like the miniature person's complexion seemed to look better than before. This was not a misconception on his part. Rather, the miniature person's complexion was truly looking better.
Chen Feng was feeling doubtful. "Could it be…" Was the nourishment of godly power bringing about some change in the miniature person? That was quite possible. Chen Feng's heart trembled. If so, it seemed like it wasn't a bad thing after all for the miniature person to absorb the godly power. He proceeded to try syncing with the miniature person, and he found with astonishment that his amplified strength had actually increased compared to earlier.
The miniature person had indeed improved. Was this the effect brought about by the godly power? Too strong!
Chen Feng finally understood. "He is absorbing the godly power to improve." So it turned out that this was the manner in which the miniature person improved. However, this was quite an astonishing method of improvement. After all, godly power was not normally something one could obtain casually. Who would have guessed that this miniature person actually required godly power to improve?
"If this is the case, things will be quite troublesome." Chen Feng smiled bitterly as he realized that if this was the case… he would never be an apostle in his entire life.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Waves of godly power surged in. The lord god was still trying his very best to pour godly power into Chen Feng. Unfortunately for him, he did not realize that the godly power he was pouring in was working as fertilizer instead of the way he intended.
Five minutes, eight minutes, 10 minutes…
Finally, when it reached the point that even the god's expression was turning pale, he gave up. The apostle's contract had failed.

Chapter 768: What an Unreliable Person
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
The god sighed. "Your talent when it comes to godly power is very bad." It was without a doubt that, after so many years of being a god, he had never encountered a life-form with such poor talent. So poor was Chen Feng's talent that he couldn't force Chen Feng into the apostle realm even if he wanted to. Was Chen Feng a completely talentless person? That did not seem likely, as he had successfully become a resonator.
Thus, it was clear that rather than being completely talentless, he simply had extremely poor talent. After all, he had required quite the effort on the god's part even when entering the resonance realm. With the higher difficulty posed by the apostle realm…
"Failed?" The huge monkey blanked. "This thing can actually fail?"
Evidently, none of them had ever heard that the establishment of a contract of gods could actually fail. Theoretically, wasn't a god an almighty and omnipotent figure as far as a mortal was concerned?
"…" As the god heard this, his face darkened. What could he say? Even as a god, this was the first time he had encountered something like this. Since he had encountered Chen Feng, he had felt like he was encountering one defeat after another. In order to prove that he was still a god, he decided to give it one more try even though he had exhausted a large amount of godly power in the previous attempt. Naturally, the target for this second attempt would not be Chen Feng.
Suddenly, he pointed at the huge monkey. "Come." Although this huge monkey was much weaker than Chen Feng, he had still nevertheless reached the lowest requirements for becoming an apostle. As such…
Shua!
He pointed at the huge monkey.
Bang! Bang!
His godly power surged out, and the apostle's contract appeared. Since this huge monkey was comparatively weaker, this process did not immediately succeed. However, as the godly power surged, a golden radiance appeared around the huge monkey's body, slowly converging within him.
Bang!
With a loud boom, a shocking symbol flickered on the huge monkey's forehead. Apostle's contract: success.
The huge monkey howled, "Ao—"
Bang! Bang! Bang!
He started smacking himself in excitement. As he sensed the formidable prowess he now possessed, he was so excited that he couldn't control himself and started yelling. Success! All the other herculean apes were endlessly excited as well. The god heaved a sigh of relief. Although the godly power he had exhausted was rather high, he had still succeeded.
His repeated failures with Chen Feng had truthfully caused him to lose no small amount of confidence in himself. He had even believed that he was no longer capable of promoting someone to the apostle realm. Now that he looked at it, the problem was not in him; it was this Chen Feng fellow… And thus, as the god reached a new conclusion, he grudgingly looked at Chen Feng.
Chen Feng: "…" Bro, can you not look at me like I am some impotent person?
The god patted the huge monkey's shoulder. "Henceforth, you are my apostle."
"All right." The huge monkey was excited. He could feel a close connection between him and godly power. The moment he had become an apostle, his relationship with the god had started to feel much more intimate than it had in the past. As such, he was naturally happy with this development.
"As for you…" The god looked at Chen Feng with a distressed expression. "Your talent when it comes to godly power is truly very poor. We can only take it slow."
"Chen Feng failed to become an apostle?" The huge monkey finally realized what had happened, and he was suddenly excited. "Can I challenge him, then?"
Among the herculean apes, strength was everything. As such, challenges were quite normal among them. Although they all respected Chen Feng greatly, they frequently had the desire to challenge him. This was especially true for the huge monkey, who had suffered numerous defeats at Chen Feng's hands. This time, with his successful promotion and Chen Feng's failure, his instinctive reaction was to challenge Chen Feng. However, the moment his words left his mouth, the god dragged him away. What kind of joke was that? Had he not seen the wooden apostle earlier? Had that apostle not vanished upon fighting Chen Feng?
After giving it some thought, the god was still unwilling to give up on Chen Feng and, in a serious tone, said, "I will think of a way to solve your issue."
After all, the strength Chen Feng had demonstrated was truly too astonishing.
Chen Feng could only smile bitterly. "All right." Alas, this wasn't an issue that could be solved easily. His fake nascent soul, which had been absorbing all the godly power… He probably had to look for the reason behind this before he could solve it. However, right at this moment, Chen Feng's acute senses were able to detect a fluctuation.
Hum—
The fluctuation noiselessly arrived.
Suddenly, Chen Feng was alarmed. "Who is it?"
It was the very first time he had sensed a fluctuation so clearly. The bizarre fluctuation flitted across before vanishing without a trace, as if it had never appeared. Chen Feng was startled, yet he could no longer find it. Earlier… With the turn of his head, he sensed something different, yet it vanished.
The god looked at him curiously. "What's going on?"
Suddenly, Chen Feng asked, "Did you not feel a fluctuation earlier?"
"No." The god maintained his curious expression.
Chen Feng: "…"
Even a god hadn't felt it? But that had clearly been a fluctuation… Was it a misconception on his part? Chen Feng looked over at the miniature person, whose complexion had improved once again. How could it be a misconception? That fluctuation that had rippled past had actually been absorbed by this miniature person, causing a drastic improvement in his complexion.
That familiar feeling… That fluctuation had to have appeared before as well. However, the past him had been too weak and had failed to detect it. But with this miniature person, which had also grown stronger, he had managed to detect that fluctuation.
"Xiao Ying," Chen Feng said inwardly, "observe him for me. The moment it appeared…"
Hum—
Xiao Ying flickered several times in response. Chen Feng was still wondering what that fluctuation had been. He felt like something had to have happened, even if this was just his intuition. Just as he was deep in thought, a loud boom carried over. It was akin to the rumble of ten-thousand peals of thunder. As it reached the mountain, the entire shrine boomed loudly, startling everyone present.
The god was furious. "Who is it?" There were actually people daring enough to come mess around in his territory? He was truly furious now. It was fine for him to have lost his prestige in front of these monkeys, it was also fine to have lost his prestige facing Chen Feng, but now, the provocation had even reached his territory? He was an illustrious god, an almighty and majestic god! He would not tolerate this!
Shua!
With a flash, the god appeared at the entrance together with Chen Feng and the others. There, a group of people were shouting at the door.
Hmph!
The god snorted, "Feeling suicidal?"
The huge monkey grinned. "Let me deal with them."
"Good. Capture—"
Before the god could even finish his words, the huge monkey had already pounced forth. His huge size, his terrifying talent, and his present strength as an apostle caused him to shoot forth like an artillery shell.
Bang!
This "artillery shell" landed, and instantly, a huge portion of the group of people, who also possessed extraordinary strength, was killed off.
"Capture and question…" The god failed to complete his sentence.
The huge monkey turned around and smiled. "What?"
The god's body stiffened. "Hehe, nothing." He had never killed an apostle. However, after giving it some thought, an apostle capable of reaching this place should be the apostle of the other minor gods nearby. In that case, it did not matter even if they were killed by the huge monkey. After all, he did not fear those minor gods.
"You... you all…" The only survivor of the group looked at the huge monkey in horror. He had evidently never expected that the huge monkey would truly dare to make a move. "You guys are courting death. A mere minor god…"
"Bastard." The huge monkey slapped him without hesitation.
"I am an apostle from Mountcarve City…"
Bang!
The heavily injured apostle was transformed into mincemeat by the huge monkey's slap.
Mountcarve…
The god had a bad premonition. His godly power surged out and landed on the forehead of one of the corpses. Next, an extremely familiar imprint appeared.
"Prison." This was the word on the imprint.
At this sight, the god's pupils shrunk. This was the apostle of one of the almighty gods of Mountcarve City, a god called Prison. Why were they here? No, now was not the time to ask this question. Suddenly, the god noticed an even bigger issue. The apostle of Prison had been killed by the huge monkey using the apostle power he had just granted the monkey not too long ago…

Chapter 769: It's Like You Are Joking
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
In Mountcarve City, a certain astonishing aura erupted suddenly. "How audacious of you!"
Bang!
That dreadful aura engulfed the entire city, causing all the life-forms in the area to tremble in fear.
"God, this aura…"
"Which idiot provoked this lord?"
"Whoever it was, he is finished."
"Leave quickly, lest we be caught up in this anger."
Countless life-forms looked in the direction of the city center in shock. They started hastily leaving in fear of being caught up in the god's wrath.
"Excellent. Since you want a battle, then a battle it shall be." Prison's killing intent surged. He had initially wanted to avoid killing, especially at a time like this when the number of gods was still lacking. The rules set in place by the Sin God generally did not allow killing among gods. As such, after pondering the issue for a long time, he had decided to have his apostle pay that god a visit. Unexpectedly, his apostle had been directly killed. This was too excessive.
"I told you earlier that it's pointless, trying to reason with these wild gods," A different god said in disdain. "They are barbarous and ignorant; they became gods through pure luck. Ultimately, they are still the lowest existences among gods."
"Which god is that fellow?" Prison asked coldly.
The other god curled his lips. "I don't know. Who would be bothered to know the title of a wild god?"
Prison stood up. Instantly, a terrifying divine aura rippled out. He could forget about normal believers getting killed, but now that an apostle had been killed, he, as the god in question, couldn't not do anything. This was a conflict between gods, something apostles could not partake in. Since that god had provoked him into a battle between gods, he had to accept the challenge.
"Looks like I have to personally take a trip there. Let me see clearly what kind of strength you have, for you to be so audacious as to kill my apostle."
…
At this time, on a certain mountain, that god stared blankly at the corpse below him, then looked at the proud huge monkey. He blanked for a long time as he came to terms with the fact that, just like that, he had provoked Prison.
Good lord, Prison was a major god. This god felt a little light headed. Why had this happened out of the blue?
"How are you?" The huge monkey looked at his god, who was presently rubbing his head with an unsightly expression. The huge monkey was somewhat confused as he wondered how a god could be plagued by a sickness as simple as a headache. How odd.
The god: "…" He looked at the huge monkey, who was seriously contemplating this problem, but he didn't know how to answer the question. How should he say it?
Should he tell the monkey that he was an idiot for not seeing clearly whose apostle this fellow was, and question the monkey for having the galls to kill him? Should he ask the monkey if he knew that what he had just done was the equivalent of provoking a war between two gods? He could not bring himself to say any of these things. The huge monkey had acted on his behalf. This apostle of Prison had indeed been too unbridled, causing the huge monkey to react violently, accidentally killing the apostle.
In any case, the apostle was already dead. It was pointless to talk about all this. Regardless of how he felt, he had to calm himself down. He knew that he had to stay calm. What he was about to face was his most dangerous crisis yet since his ascension to godhood.
"A major god…" Alas, his heart still chilled at the thought. He was among the lowest of the minor gods, so far apart from a major god—two realms separated them. If he truly dared to fight Prison, he would not be able to last even a single round. They were in completely different leagues.
In short, he would never be able to defeat Prison, not in his entire life. At present, the only thing he could do was flee at top speed to preserve his life. As for this shrine of his… The god looked sourly at this mountain before him.
This shrine, this room, everything here had been carved out by him personally with great difficulty. As a lone god, he had spent quite a lot of time to complete this shrine of his. Yet now… As of this moment, he appeared so very pitiful as he stood there.
Evidently, he had never expected that, in a short few days, he would transform from a minor god with a little remote territory into a nomad god. What the hell was this? Was it even a good thing for him to have encountered Chen Feng and the huge monkey? Even he could not answer this question.
He clenched his teeth as he decided to escape with everyone. "Let's go."
The huge monkey scratched his head in confusion, evidently yet to realize what just happened. He was wondering why this god had stood still for a long time after seeing the imprint on the corpse's head before suddenly deciding to take them all away. What was going on?
Chen Feng sank into contemplation. "Prison." He had heard of this god as well. Prison was one of the major gods residing in Mountcarve City, and he was quite a big shot. Why had his apostle come in the first place? Oh, right, it must have been because of the believers around Mountcarve City. Chen Feng understood clearly. This was the only reason that could have caused that god to send someone here.
Unfortunately for the apostle, he had been too arrogant, believing that nobody would dare to make a move against him, and had thus instantly transformed into a corpse.
"I see." Chen Feng understood everything. In short, this pitiful god of theirs was once again being made a scapegoat.
"Let's go." Chen Feng patted the huge monkey's shoulder as he explained, "There are too many of us. Therefore, we need to look for a new home."
"Ao." The huge monkey sighed with sorrow. "So it seems like nowadays, even being a god is quite difficult, huh?"
And thus, on this day, within an hour of the huge monkey killing the apostle, the god brought Chen Feng and the herculean apes and fled, leaving behind an empty mountain. The cold breeze brushed past, and the absolutely empty shrine looked so pitiful.
Shortly after, with a flickering of light, two terrifying figures descended. They were Prison and a companion of his that was also a major god. Prison had initially planned to come alone. However, his companion was of the opinion that there might be a trap here, since the opponent had provoked them out of the blue.
As they'd thought about how some gods had perished in such a manner in the past, they had decided to come together. And yet, what they saw was a pitiful empty mountain. On the ground, the corpse of the apostle was still sprawled about. It was clear that nobody had bothered to clean this place up. As for the shrine, it was completely empty.
Prison frowned. "Where is he?" He did not believe that a god daring enough to kill his apostle would actually flee from him.
"Temporarily out?" the other god guessed.
"Let us wait here, then," said Prison. He had to deal with the death of his apostle.
This was especially true because he could see how, even in death, his apostle's eyes had been wide open, evidently not believing that he would die in such a manner.
"Sure." The other god concealed his aura and waited.
One hour…
Two hours…
Five hours…
Ten hours…
…
And just like that, one day passed. It was not until the end of the second day that Prison accepted a certain fact with great reluctance: the god with the galls to kill his apostle had actually escaped!

Chapter 770: Start Snatching Recruits
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Nothing. Nothing."
Prison searched the entire shrine but found nothing. All of that god's belongings had been taken away. However, a lot of the things here still had lingering traces of a god's aura, proving that just recently, a god had been residing here. Yet now he was gone.
The other god analyzed the traces. "From the godly power, this should be a minor god."
Prison was furious. "Since it's a minor god, why was he brave enough to kill my apostle?"
"Mhm…" The other god gave it some thought before shaking his head. "Nobody can answer that question."
Prison raged. "Search for him! I refuse to believe that I can't find him!" He was filled with anger, but he was unable to find an avenue to vent it. Therefore, he summoned his apostles and believers and had them search. Alas, they ultimately failed to find even a single clue. That god had seemingly vanished, leaving behind only some traces of godly power on the corpses here. Apart from this, no other clues were found.
In the first place, this territory was in the outermost border of Mountcarve City. Not far away was the territory of a different god. Due to the struggle for faith, the relationship between these gods of different territories was definitely not good. As such, it would be fundamentally impossible for him to get the help of the gods of the other territories in his search.
Moreover, nobody had a clue as to where that god had escaped. If he decided to stop using his godly power and focus purely on concealing himself, apart from the great Sin God, no other gods could find him.
"The day will come when he appears."
Prison gnashed his teeth. In his hand was the tiny amount of that god's godly power that he had gathered. With this, the moment that god showed himself, he would know immediately. So long as he sensed a similar godly power, he would be able to locate that god.
Naturally, even more important was the fact that this god had taken away the thousand-plus tribes surrounding Mountcarve City. There were so many life-forms; how had that god been able to bring them all along? Or perhaps he had a destination in mind?
Suddenly, the other god spoke. "I have a bad premonition. Could this perhaps be the work of the gods of the nearby cities? They may have wanted to expand their pool of believers and thus stole the tribes from our territory?"
Prison shook his head without hesitation. "That is not possible. They would not do such a thing."
Since none of those gods would dare do such a thing!
That was because doing something like that was equivalent to severing one's foundation. It would bring about a major grudge. If they did that and were discovered, a huge battle would ensue. At that time, a true war between the gods would erupt, and they would become mortal enemies. After all, it was impossible for any of the cities near them to conceal the number of missing tribes.
"Who could it have been, then?"
"I don't know. The believers of the nearby cities have all said that they have not noticed any exceptions."
"How can more than 1,000 tribes, with several million tribesmen, vanish into thin air? Who exactly was that god? And why did he do this?"
Prison could not understand this. The same could be said of his companion. All the gods of Mountcarve City spent a long time contemplating this, yet they failed to figure out the reason. None of them could have guessed that their line of thought was totally wrong. All of this was in fact not the work of that god; he had merely been made a scapegoat.
"Continue the search. We must determine the reason. However, we must also focus on a different issue." Prison sighed deeply. "If we fail to find the 1,000 missing tribes, what should we do?"
This was the most heart-wrenching issue. More than 1,000 tribes had gone missing. They were the foundations of Mountcarve City. Without them, in the coming decades, Mountcarve City would not have any new believers. This was the scariest issue.
"What should we do?"
This was what they had to focus on. After returning, Prison and the other god discussed with the others. They spent several days in discussion, and after confirming that it was impossible to find the missing tribes, they had no choice but to use their backup plan.
"Let's start recruiting."
"Recruiting?"
"Yes. Offer better terms secretly to the tribes nearby and get them to move over voluntarily to become part of Mountcarve City."
In short, they were going to steal recruits from other gods.
"This… is not very good, right?"
"Do you have a better idea?"
"No."
"Us providing a better offer is simply healthy competition. With the unique circumstances we are in, we have to use unique methods. We must replenish the lost tribes as soon as possible. Otherwise, Mountcarve City will definitely fall in the not too distant future."
"Understood."
"Sacrifice short-term gains for long-term gains. This shall be our current focus."
"Understood."
"We don't even need to give too good an offer. We don't have to steal all their tribes. We only need to steal a bit from each city. That will be sufficient."
"Understood."
"Remember, do not recruit too excessively. We do not wish to provoke the gods of all these cities."
"Understood."
And thus, soon after, the news of the recruitment noiselessly began to spread. And with that, some tribes truly started secretly moving over. As for the gods of the other cities, they all noticed this development as well.
"Mountcarve City has crossed the line."
"However, they have been careful to not do anything that might trigger a war between gods."
"Even so, they can't do that, right?"
"I advise you guys to not get involved in this. I heard that something recently happened to them. More than 1,000 tribes went missing, and their outer region has been completely emptied. That is why they are doing this."
"Is that for real?"
"Of course. Therefore, do not place too many restrictions on them. Otherwise, if they really fail to recruit even a single believer, they will probably start to go crazy. At that time, a true war between the gods will erupt."
"Hiss. Fine, forget it. However, we can't allow them to continue doing this, right?"
"Dealing with this is easy. Put out some preferential offers as well and aim the offers at those with the potential to be apostles. Give them the best resources and treatment so as to retain the gifted ones. As for the rest… Well, those lacking ambition or talent can be given up at any time."
"That will do."
The gods of the other cities all reached a decision.
Their ultimate decision was to retain the gifted ones with preferential treatment, while the lacking ones would be allowed to freely travel to Mountcarve City. This was in fact a different method of filtering out the undesirables. Toward this, Mountcarve City was helpless.
At present, the outer region of their territory was completely empty. As such, they had to take what they could. Even those deemed undesirables could not be rejected. To deal with the preferential treatment the other cities were offering, they had no choice but to sacrifice more and spend more resources to recruit the better-quality ones. However, the vast majority of the gifted ones, those with the potential to reach the apostle realm, were not willing to move.
Just like this, a cold war started. Unexpectedly, this instead resulted in peace among these few cities, who would otherwise still have had minor skirmishes every now and then. As for now, it was a pure battle for resources. At this time, Chen Feng and the rest, who were fleeing together with the god, also heard this news.
All the major companies have started fighting over recruits. This was Chen Feng's first thought when he heard. Due to the abrupt bankruptcy of a certain training and recruitment agency, Mountcarve Company was now lacking in talent. Helpless, they had no choice but to start recruiting from the other companies. As for the other companies, they had started to increase the pay to retain their own talent. This was what Chen Feng saw.
And this… would be the perfect chance for him.

Chapter 771: Legend
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Chen Feng's current strength was rather bizarre. He was around level 10 resonance, right at the peak of resonance. After the amplification effect, his combat power was equivalent to a level 1 apostle. Yet he had discovered something astonishing: he was not able to improve beyond his current level, since he was incapable of resonating with a god.
Even his current level 10 resonance had been achieved with great difficulty with the help of this god. It was a realm he would not be able to reach through his own comprehension.
Under normal circumstances, the god would merely act as a bridge and help one enter the realm of resonance. As for the rest, one would have to rely on one's own comprehension. As for Chen Feng, he had received preferential treatment from the god and been fed a huge amount of godly power. Even so, he had only been able to reach level 10 resonance.
Even if the god wanted to push him into the resonance realm, the god couldn't. What about Chen Feng comprehending the godly power by himself and improving naturally? That was nearly impossible. As such, Chen Feng was seemingly stuck, no longer able to improve. Just like the god had guessed, it was very possible that Chen Feng might be forever stuck at this stage.
"Resonance, huh?" Chen Feng sighed. The realm of resonance was where one started comprehending their god's godly power. Regretfully, his comprehension was nearly nonexistent.
"How can this be?" Chen Feng scratched his head. Why couldn't he resonate? Once again, he tried comprehending godly power, but as usual, there was no reaction whatsoever.
"Sure enough."
He no longer had any hope of comprehension. If so, there was only one method left for him to increase his strength. He had to rely on this fake nascent soul of his. He had discovered earlier that, upon absorbing godly power, this fellow would improve. With that, the amplification effect would become smoother, better, and even stronger.
It was quite hard to put into words. For instance, if the previous amplification value had been 10 times 10, now, it had seemingly changed to 10 times 10 times 1. This was a rather odd change, as the final value was essentially the same. No, to be more accurate, after the improvement of his miniature person that one time, it had seemingly changed to 10 times 10 times 1.001. Naturally, this was the new amplification rate for his resonance realm, which was somewhat different than the amplification in the awakened realm, since this realm was greater.
The improvement was extremely minute. However, did this not signify that a new avenue for increasing his strength had been discovered? Chen Feng's body was still incapable of surpassing level 10 resonance. However, what if the amplification effect improved without stop? What if that "1" at the back continued to increase? Would it become a 2, a 3, or perhaps something even bigger? Perhaps it might even reach 10?
This would give Chen Feng even greater combat power, reaching that of a level 1,000 resonator and would be quite an astonishing improvement. Naturally, this required his fake nascent soul to be able to absorb sufficient godly power to ultimately further enhance his amplification effect. Should he get the god to provide him with some sort of sponsor?
Instinctively, Chen Feng looked over at the god only to see a pale and weakened appearance. Ultimately, he was too embarrassed to ask for more from this god. Forget it. This god was already pitiful enough due to them. There was no need for him to further harm the god. Naturally, more important was the fact that, given the god's appearance, it was obvious that he had yet to recover from the excessive exhaustion when he had tried to increase Chen Feng's realm. As such, he would not be able to help even if he wanted to.
"Looks like I have to look for other gods."
Chen Feng set his sights on the recruitment project of the several major cities, and he was extremely tempted.
Chen Feng laughed. "A cold war?"
…
At this time, the struggle over believers had slowly unfolded. Every single day, news spread about so-and-so genius getting recruited by so-and-so city, or about so-and-so city providing generous compensation and being worth joining. Whatever the case, Mountcarve City was the weakest party in this conflict. There was only one reason for this: their lack of foundation.
Having lost the 1,000-plus tribes around them, their surroundings were now empty. Even when other geniuses were willing to come, they had to migrate their families and start from scratch here. Even for geniuses, this brought about much pressure. Therefore, despite Mountcarve City's more generous compensation, they still managed to obtain the fewest recruits. Of course, this was only taking into consideration the geniuses. As for the common and weak tribes, Mountcarve City had gained the most.
"Yet another common tribe?"
"Yes."
"How many have we obtained?"
"Over 300 tribes."
"I am asking about those with the potential to become apostles…"
"Oh, not one so far."
"…"
Even with more than 300 tribes recruited, not a single one had the potential to become apostles. This was their present crisis. If this progressed, they would have no choice but to place their hope in the future of these tribes rather than the present them. Nevertheless, this was still some sort of hope.
"It's fine. Even if our present apostles will be lower in amount, so long as the future of Mountcarve City is guaranteed, everything will be fine."
"Understood."
They continued recruiting, but with little hope of anyone with the potential to become an apostle joining them. Surprisingly, recently, a piece of news had been spreading, news that alarmed even the gods of Mountcarve City. An extraordinary genius called Chen Feng was heading toward Mountcarve City.
"Chen Feng?"
"Extraordinary?"
The gods of Mountcarve City were somewhat stupefied. Why had they never heard of this genius?
"It is said that he is a recently emerged genius," the apostle explained. "He is only at the resonance realm, yet his strength is extremely terrifying. He can even contend against veteran apostles. It is said that a certain minor god personally tried to recruit him but was rejected. This person possessed extraordinary talent."
As the gods of Mountcarve City heard this, their hearts burned with desire. There was such a person?
"Why did you guys not present a report about him in the past?" Prison asked in a sonorous voice.
The underling smiled bitterly. "Erm… Everyone is clear on the situation we are in. None of us expected that this person would actually head over here…"
Prison took in a deep breath. "It doesn't matter. It's good that he is willing to come. When he arrives, I shall personally receive him."
The underling's heart trembled. "Ah? You are going personally?"
Heavens, Lord Prison was a major god with several dozen apostles. Yet he was willing to personally welcome the arrival of a single apostle?
"In unique circumstances, we must take unique actions." Prison smiled. "Furthermore, I have never seen anyone in the resonance realm capable of contending against an apostle. I shall go expand my knowledge. And if this person is here representing a tribe, perhaps... What we stand to gain is more than a single apostle!" Prison said profoundly.
The underling nodded. "Understood." Soon, this news spread throughout Mountcarve City. Everyone knew that a resonator would arrive and that Lord Prison would personally receive him. This caused all the apostles to feel envy and hatred, lamenting the fact that this fellow had arrived at such an opportune time. Apart from a time like this, could a mere resonator ever receive such treatment?
Early the next day, numerous experts focused their gaze on the entrance to Mountcarve City. There, Prison and several apostles were waiting. Not far away, a figure gradually appeared.
Everyone's heart trembled. "He's here."
Prison looked at the youth in front of him, doubt in his eyes. "You are Chen Feng?"
Chen Feng bowed slightly. "Yes. Lord God."
"Are you willing to be my apostle?" Prison asked with a deep voice.
As far as Prison was concerned, since this Chen Feng had traveled so far to reach here, his intention had to be becoming the apostle of a major god. In Mountcarve City, Prison was the strongest major god.
"That depends on whether you are qualified, esteemed one," Chen Feng said, polite as ever. Alas, these words of his were like a bomb that triggered the fury of all the life-forms present.
"Audacious!"
"Do you know who you are talking to?"
"How egotistical."
Countless life-forms were furious. Even though Mountcarve City was in a crisis, that did not mean that anyone could view them with such contempt. Perhaps Mountcarve City's strength would drop slightly in the future. However, right now, they were still undeniably a powerhouse. As for Prison, he was the strongest god in the city.
Now, a mere resonator dared provoke their god? He was courting death! The eyes of all the apostles and gods were now filled with killing intent.
Prison laughed. "Qualified?"
"Yes." Calm as ever, Chen Feng explained, "In fact, I am fine with being the apostle of any god. Perhaps you have heard some rumors about me. Alas, those rumors are erroneous."
Prison's interest was piqued. "Oh?"

Chapter 772: The Search
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. "I did not reject that god. On the contrary, I was extremely willing to be that god's apostle. Regretfully, the apostle's contract failed to be established."
"Failed?" Prison was astonished. This was the first time he had ever heard of something like this.
Chen Feng nodded. "That's right. That god said that my growth during the resonance realm was too excessive. As such, regular gods will be unable to establish a contract with me. For the contract to be successfully established, an even stronger god, one of a higher level, will be required."
As everyone heard this, they took in a deep breath in shock. There was such a thing? How strong was this fellow to be repelling gods? This was too astonishing.
"I see." Deep curiosity appeared in Prison's eyes. There was actually such a thing. If he could make this youth his apostle, perhaps he would be able to attract even more experts.
"Come, let us go establish the contract," Prison said in excitement.
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. "Let's do it here. After that god, I found two other gods to try it out as well. All failed without exception. Therefore, let us establish the contract here so that when it fails, I can immediately go look for the next god."
Prison: "…"
This was the very first time he had received such a cold shoulder.
Prison inhaled deeply. "Fine, this is also acceptable." Under everyone's gaze, he started to establish the apostle's contract.
Hum—
A flickering imprint appeared. This was an apostle's imprint. The contract started descending and landed on Chen Feng's forehead. Terrifying godly power surged out and poured into his forehead.
Chen Feng's mood became solemn. "Here it comes." He assumed the proper pose and calmed himself, seemingly trying to endure the infusion of godly power.
Bang! Bang!
Godly power far stronger than that of the minor god poured into his body.
Chen Feng was shocked. "So this is the strength of a major god?" Without a doubt, Prison's godly power was much greater than that minor god's. Whether in terms of quantity or quality, he surpassed that god by far. So strong was the godly power that Chen Feng even started to wait expectantly for the moment that he finally became an apostle. Perhaps he could truly become an apostle here? And yet, shortly afterward, reality showed Chen Feng that he was being too wishful.
Bang!
Waves of godly power poured into him.
The miniature person was still as calm as ever, absorbing all the godly power that arrived, not leaving anything behind. Regardless of the quality or quantity of the godly power, everything was cleaned up.
"Huh?" Prison was astonished. He had poured quite a huge amount of godly power in, yet there was still no reaction? This person called Chen Feng was indeed rather special. Since this was the case, he might as well increase the amount of godly power and see what happened. He refused to believe that a mere resonator could resist him.
Bang!
An even more terrifying amount of godly power poured in. Initially, Chen Feng had still had a tiny amount of hope in his heart that he would be able to become an apostle. Alas, that little amount of hope was crushed as the miniature person absorbed all the godly power without stop. Toward the end, Chen Feng merely watched on in boredom as this unfolded.
Mhm…
Not a single bit of godly power was left for him. All was absorbed by this miniature person. A nascent soul indeed.
Prison began to frown. "Mhm?" At this time, he finally realized how thorny this issue was. However, Chen Feng's words from earlier had put on something of a spot. As such, he had no choice but to continue increasing the intensity of his godly power with a frown on his face, hoping that this fellow would quickly become his apostle.
One minute…
Two minutes…
Five minutes…
Ten minutes…
Finally, Prison started to turn pale. This Chen Feng's body was like a bottomless pit with no end. Regardless of the amount of godly power that entered, it was still insufficient to turn him into an apostle. Could it be that… even he, Prison, was not qualified to become this fellow's god?
"Damn it." Prison finally stopped gloomily. The entirety of Mountcarve City lapsed into silence. As for the apostles and the others that were watching on happily, their hearts jolted furiously at this moment. Evidently, they had never expected that Lord Prison would truly fail.
"Indeed…" Chen Feng's expression dimmed, seemingly not surprised by this at all.
"Are you not surprised?" a god asked.
"What is there to be surprised about?" Chen Feng sighed. "Among the gods I encountered previously, one of them was a major god as well. Even he failed."
Shua!
Everyone lapsed into silence.
"However, that lord did tell me of a way out of this predicament. He said that I am too strong. If I want to be an apostle, there are only two methods. The first is to find a god with sufficient godly power to satisfy the requirement for transforming me into an apostle. With an absolute amount of godly power, such a god could change me. At that time, I might become the strongest apostle in existence."
Slowly, Chen Feng continued, "The second method is to look for a god that is completely compatible with me. The moment our resonance reaches a certain level, the apostle's contract will naturally be successfully established."
Compatibility… Everyone sank into silence. The probability of finding such a god… How low was it?
"That is why I came." Chen Feng gazed into the distance and continued, "My goal is to traverse the world in search of my true god. At that time, I will give my heart and soul to him!"
Prison laughed bitterly. "Seems like I don't have the chance to obtain your loyalty, then." Everyone could clearly see Chen Feng's potential. For him to be able to contend against an apostle at the resonance realm, how strong would he be in the future? The moment he became an apostle, his strength would skyrocket. At that time, what height would he reach? For an expert like this to not be under me… Suddenly, killing intent emerged in Prison's heart.
However, as he saw the countless gazes watching him, he ultimately eliminated such thoughts. Finally, he understood the reason Chen Feng had insisted on establishing the contract here.
Chen Feng looked at the other gods. "Are there any lords here interested in giving it a try?" Earlier, when Prison had been attempting to establish the contract, the other gods had arrived. As they heard his question, they all instinctively looked over at Prison.
"You guys give it a try as well," Prison said after giving it some thought. Even though he couldn't keep Chen Feng for himself, it would still be good if Chen Feng could be kept in this city.
"All right," the other gods answered. And thus, a new round of contract establishment began.
Shua! Shua!
Godly power started surging out. With Prison as the example, they all poured out their godly power at full power from the very start, hoping to establish the contract in a single push.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Boundless godly power surged into Chen Feng. Alas, regardless of the amount, not a single one of them succeeded. Once again, Chen Feng's path to comprehending godly power was cut short as the nascent soul reaped all the benefits. Ultimately, only a bunch of pale gods were left behind. Their godly power had all been squeezed clean, yet none of them had met the requirements for making Chen Feng an apostle.
Chen Feng smiled bitterly. "Looks like I will have to continue roaming about."
The gods could only keep their silence. What could they say? This fellow had only arrived so he could become an apostle. Now that he had failed to become an apostle, he had no choice but to leave. Prison truly wanted to keep Chen Feng here. Unfortunately, he could not do so. He was sure that the moment he tried to force Chen Feng to stay, people would stop coming to Mountcarve City willingly. Moreover, even the existing apostles of Mountcarve City would object to this. A such, he could only watch on as Chen Feng left.
"This fellow…" Prison stared into the distance. As a major god, even after exhausting all his power, he had still failed to meet Chen Feng's requirements. If so, who could be Chen Feng's true god? An even higher-level god? Or perhaps Chen Feng would truly be able to meet a god he was compatible?
Prison had no idea. However, here and now, with Chen Feng's departure, a new legend began to spread in these lands. A legend about Chen Feng, his strength, and his true god.

Chapter 773: Plan Seen Through
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Hey, have you heard? A rather popular resonator appeared recently…"
"Ah, yes, I have heard of him. He's called Chen Feng, right? I heard that, because he is too strong, even his god was unable to satisfy the requirement for turning him into an apostle. That is why he has to travel the lands in search of the strongest god."
"Yeah, I heard that only the strongest of the gods will be able to turn him into an apostle."
"Is that for real?"
"I'm not sure. However, it is said that a lot of gods are looking for him now…"
"Ah? What for?"
"To prove themselves, I suppose? A lot of major gods have failed. Therefore, a huge number of gods are hoping that they will be the strongest god, the one that succeeds in subduing this Chen Feng. In any case, there aren't any losses even if they fail in their attempts. But if they succeed, their gain will be enormous. Whichever god succeeds will be able to attract an even larger number of resonators to his side, am I right?"
"Moreover, the moment a god succeeds… Hehe, he's already capable of contending against an apostle while in the resonance realm. How powerful will he be after becoming an apostle?"
…
Similar discussions were being repeated everywhere. Just like this, the legend surrounding Chen Feng began to spread. Interestingly, in addition to the major gods, those weak minor gods were looking for him as well. These gods didn't think they were stronger than the major gods. Rather, they were trying their luck to see if they were the compatible one. With so many gods in existence, there ought to be one that was compatible with Chen Feng. What if they themselves happened to be the one?
As such, the major gods wanted to prove their prowess, and the minor gods wanted to try their luck and see if they were the compatible one. And thus, without Chen Feng personally seeking them out, the gods appeared before him one after another. Right outside Mountcarve City, a long line had formed, a line of gods waiting to establish a contract with Chen Feng. This sight stunned all life-forms.
"Something like this has actually happened?"
"Too strong."
"For him to reach this level as a mere resonator, he is truly the first in history…"
"Won't a god make a move against him in anger?"
"Heh, with so many major gods watching on attentively, who would dare?"
"True."
…
At this time, unknown to anyone, beyond the blue dome of heaven, on a certain summit where a shrine that all gods looked up to was located, a certain god had also heard of this.
"The strongest apostle? Chen Feng?" Ye was astonished. He had never expected that this new world he had created would have such an expert. The entire human world had been used away by him to serve as his supply of believers. As such, his power of faith was something no god could compare with, since humanity's billions were monopolized by him alone.
And thus he had never bothered much about this new world he had created. Yet now…
"Such a life-form has actually been birthed here?"
He was filled with a little anticipation.
One ought to know that this brand-new world was not the world that had been created by the Creation God. Rather, this world had been personally created by the Sin God. And now, finally, a true expert had been birthed in his world. This filled him with gratification.
"Chen Feng…" he mumbled in silence.
Suddenly, he said, "Zero."
A figure appeared with a flash. "Here."
"Go and take a look," Ye said with an amused expression. "I want to see clearly exactly how strong this so-called strongest apostle is."
"Okay." Instantly, Zero vanished.
"Chen Feng…" Ye muttered. This name gave him a rather odd feeling. Was this feeling due to this Chen Feng being the first such existence to have ever appeared on his created world? Hopefully that was truly the case. At this time, in Mountcarve City, Chen Feng was being showered by the godly powers of the various gods. One could even say that this was a baptism of sorts.
Due to the huge number of gods that had gathered here, Prison had provided a venue for them to try their hand at the contract, so as to not waste any time. After all, he still wished for these gods to leave as soon as possible instead of dallying around here.
And thus, within the provided venue, Chen Feng could be seen assuming various poses as he received the various gods' "sponsorships." That posture of his…
"Tsk tsk." The huge monkey was endlessly amazed. "Will this truly be fine?"
He had never seen anyone that could still stay fine after receiving so much godly power.
"I guess so?" By his side, that minor god was filled with anxiousness as well. This was the very first time he had seen so many gods in one place. Naturally, the only reason he even dared to appear here was due to the excessively huge number of gods that had gathered here.
Shua! Shua!
Godly power surged out without stop. After one god was done, the next god would step forth immediately. Alas, regardless of whether it was a major or minor god, not a single one of them was able to cause any sort of change in Chen Feng. Every single time, the same disappointed expression could be seen on Chen Feng's face. Disappointment, regret, expectation toward the next god, and a small amount of indifference after the excessive number of failures.
Suddenly, Chen Feng had a feeling that with this performance of his, if he was to return to his previous life, he could probably obtain an Oscars Award or something. Naturally, his present focus was the growth of the miniature person. Thanks to the enthusiastic gods, his rate of growth had been incredibly rapid, so rapid that he himself dared not believe it.
The initially doll-like miniature person was now completely lifelike. Each motion or expression of Chen Feng's could now be perfectly synced with this miniature person, and Chen Feng and the miniature person were resembling each other more and more. Similarly, Chen Feng's combat prowess was rocketing as well. The initial multiplier of 1.001 had started increasing thanks to the nourishment from the various gods. From 1.002 to 1.008 to 1.02 to 1.05 to 1.1… until, ultimately, when a huge majority of the gods here had tried their hands, this multiplier reached a terrifying number: 10!
This signified that Chen Feng's strength had reached a brand-new height. The amplification of his resonance realm was now 10 times 10 times 10.
Hum—
Suddenly, the world before his eyes appeared even clearer. With every move, he could keenly sense the vitality filling this world. Now he did not even need to spare any of his attention to sync with the miniature person within him. The miniature person was now able to automatically sync with him at all times. As for him, he had reached a certain apex.
Chen Feng's heart trembled. "Is this the peak of this fake nascent soul?" He could feel that he was now in a rather wondrous state. In the past, every time he had wanted to display the amplification effect of the miniature person, he'd had to focus on it. Now that was no longer required.
"I am still a level 10 resonator. As for my combat power, it is around level 1,000 resonance. As for a so-called level 1 apostle, their combat power is in fact equivalent to level 100 resonance. Therefore, I am now capable of crushing all apostles."
He was overwhelmed by emotion. Where in the past he could have defeated only level 1 apostles, now he could ignore a huge number of the apostles in existence. At present, as Chen Feng sank into contemplation, the area surrounding him lapsed into silence.
Evidently, nobody had expected that the numerous gods that had arrived would fail to bring Chen Feng a breakthrough. Not a single one of them had succeeded.
"How has this happened?"
"Is he too strong for these gods?"
Suddenly, a certain apostle thought of something. "It is also possible that his talent is truly too poor."
"Talent…"
It was at this point that, for the very first time, everyone started to pursue this line of thought.
After all, gods were too powerful. As such, generally, they would be able to push one into the apostle realm no matter what. The only exception was when one's talent was too poor.
A certain god had a pensive look. "In short, you mean to say that…"
"That's right." The apostle sneered. "It might not have been odd if only one god failed, but several hundred gods have failed… This caused me to think of an entirely different possibility for all these failures. Could it be that… his talent is too poor, resulting in him being incapable of becoming an apostle? That is why he came out with such a scheme to trick all the gods into helping him enter the apostle realm."
Hua—
Instantly, all the gods seemed to realize something. None of them were idiots. When the so-called legend shrouding Chen Feng was peeled apart, when they started analyzing this matter at the source, they found that this might truly be the case. This person called Chen Feng…
Shua!
Everyone looked over at Chen Feng, killing intent pervading the air.
"Gulp."
The minor god that had previously been watching on for fun was suddenly nervous. It was over. Their scheme had been seen through. That's right. This was in fact what Chen Feng had planned, or to be more accurate, this was what Chen Feng had told this minor god. He had planned to use this method to become an apostle. At that time, all the resonators of the herculean apes would belong solely to this minor god. Moreover, a god capable of pushing Chen Feng into the apostle realm would most certainly be a major god. At that time, this minor god would be able to establish a connection with a major god with the help of Chen Feng.
This would be a good thing for him, so he had agreed to Chen Feng's plan. Alas, he had never expected that even with so many gods, they would all fail. Ultimately, at the last moment, this farce of Chen Feng's had been seen through. This time, things would be getting troublesome.

Chapter 774: Nothing Special
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"Who are you? And who is your god?" that apostle asked in a cold tone. "With this method, you are trying to make a fool out of all the gods in existence? Hehe…" Only the apostles could analyze this with a clear mind. The minds of all the gods here had already been muddled by the "number 1 resonator," "future strongest apostle," and "strongest god" that Chen Feng had been harping about. Only the apostles were still able to see clearly and analyze this matter. All along, this farce had been nothing but a joke.
Bang!
Killing intent surged out and pervaded the air. The killing intent emanated by the more than 100 gods here caused even the gods of Mountcarve City to be afraid that this city would accidentally get destroyed by these furious gods.
At this moment, all attention was focused on Chen Feng. Regardless of the apostles or gods, they all required an explanation. Due to Chen Feng, more than 100 gods and around 300 to 400 apostles had gathered here. As for the number of resonators, it was countless. They all needed an explanation.
Bang!
Terrifying pressure descended. Such an oppressive mood was sufficient to cause even a minor god to collapse. And yet Chen Feng remained calm. He had already entered an extremely unique state with his completed fake nascent soul. The gods' so-called oppressive auras were nothing more special to him than regular auras.
Chen Feng looked at that apostle. "Who are you?"
"Shi Yong, apostle of the Chill Wind God," he proudly said, evidently pleased with his accomplishment of identifying this farce before all the gods and apostles here. He hoped that with the reputation he had brought his god, perhaps his god would obtain even more believers in the future.
"What is your strength?" Chen Feng asked with a smile.
"Level 9 apostle," Shi Ying said confidently. After all, his god wasn't one of those newly ascended minor gods. Rather, his god was a true major god. As for him, he was a formidable existence that had existed since the Primordial Era back then. He had only reached this realm after several millennia of cultivation.
Chen Feng smiled calmly. "In short, you are an existence incomparably close to a god?"
"Hmph." Shi Ying started radiating arrogance. Even though there was still a large gap between one at the peak of the apostle realm and a god, it would still be correct to consider such an apostle as an existence closest to a god. And in the future, after reaching level 10 apostle, he might even be able to try ascending into godhood to become a subsidiary god of the Chill Wind God. This was the greatest accomplishment for an apostle.
"Very good." Chen Feng was extremely satisfied with his answer. "Well then…" He stood up and fixed his gaze on Shi Yong. "Do battle with me!"
"What?" Shi Yong thought he had heard wrong. As for the observers around them, their eyes went wide as well. Challenge? What joke was this? Shi Yong was a level 9 apostle!
As the apostle of a major god, as a formidable existence that had cultivated for so many years, even among apostles, this Shi Yong was comparably powerful. As for Chen Feng, he was nevertheless still a mere resonator.
"Don't you doubt me?" Chen Feng chuckled. "All your doubts are based on the assumption that I am stuck at this realm due to my poor talent, that I am exploiting these gods to help me break through. However… I am sorry. I do not require such help. The only reason I want to enter the apostle realm is so that I can become stronger. Nevertheless, even without breaking through, I, Chen Feng, am still the strongest of believers, still a legend, even though I am a mere resonator. I am still the strongest existence below gods. Poor talent?" A look of disdain appeared on Chen Feng's face. "Come have a taste of my strength."
Shua!
Chen Feng took a single step forward.
Bang!
Formidable godly power surged out as his aura intensified.
"He is serious in the challenge!"
All of the observers around then were shocked. One ought to know that even though Chen Feng was a legend, his achievement of defeating apostles as a resonator had merely come about from him defeating the weakest of apostles, those novice apostles. He had been able to make his name with that feat due to the huge gap between a resonator and an apostle. Yet now he was challenging the powerful Shi Yong.
Shi Yong's eyes flashed with killing intent. "You are courting death." He was truly furious at being challenged by a weak resonator.
Chen Feng merely sneered. "Hehe. Do you dare or not?"
"Why not?" Shi Yong was furious. If he were to shrink from such a challenge, he would be too embarrassed to continue living.
"Come at me then," Chen Feng said without a trace of politeness.
Swish!
Abruptly, his body soared.
Shi Yong sneered. "Hmph." Next, terrifying godly power surged out of him. At their level, there was no need to exchange numerous moves to decide on the victor. Generally, a single full-power exchange would be sufficient. With a single exchange, the weak and the strong would be clear.
"They are truly doing it!"
"Has this Chen Feng gone crazy?"
"How am I supposed to know?"
Everyone was filled with doubt.
What kind of courage did a resonator need to have to dare challenge a level 9 apostle? The gap between them wasn't merely a gap of realms. Between them, an absolute suppression in terms of godly power existed. The godly powers used by them were at completely different levels due to their difference in realm. With such a difference, how was the fight supposed to proceed?
"Apostles generally use a higher-tiered godly power…"
"True. Furthermore, this is the godly power of a major god. I seem to recall Chen Feng's god being an unknown minor god that is pitifully weak…"
"That seems to be the case."
"How is he supposed to win then?"
"Perhaps he is indeed incapable of victory. However, putting forth a stunning fight to his death is, after all, better than being killed by the gods due to his trickeries."
"I guess so."
Everyone sighed. If Chen Feng were to die in combat in such manner, his fame would surely spread far and wide. As their thoughts reached this point, everyone focused their attention on the sky. There, Chen Feng's attack was descending. Even though his attack looked rather extraordinary, it was nevertheless still the power of a level 10 resonator.
As for Shi Yong's attack, it truly looked overwhelming. Instantly, the power of a major god bloomed. With an astonishing aura, he collided with Chen Feng.
Bang!
The collision resulted in a terrifying explosion, and a bright red radiance engulfed the entire world.
An alarmed cry sounded. "Huh?"
Everyone found with astonishment that the expected scene of Shi Ying instantly killing Chen Feng did not appear. Rather, the opposite happened. Chen Feng's terrifying aura had instantly crushed the entirety of Shi Yong's attack.
Pu!
A mouthful of blood was coughed up. Immediately, the godly power surrounding Shi Yong collapsed. That terrifying attack of Chen Feng's seemed capable of piercing through the heavens and earth, and it destroyed everything Shi Yong had unleashed before heading toward his forehead. Just like that, the faint red radiance that was Chen Feng's attack halted and hovered right before Shi Yong's forehead. As of this moment, the entire world seemed to have lapsed into silence.
Chen Feng's cold voice echoed about. "Level 9 apostle? Nothing special."
"You…" Shi Yong stared at Chen Feng, his face unbelieving. Cold sweat poured out of his body without stop. He had never expected that this fellow before him was actually this strong. All the apostles were overwhelmed with shock. Even the gods that had initially been furious were stunned.
A resonator… could be so powerful? Plan? Poor talent? Making use of the gods? What a joke. When one was this strong, what was the point of talking about so-called talent? He had not needed to explain himself. He had not needed to argue the accusation. He had only needed to challenge Shi Yong, and all accusations collapsed with the result of his fight. Just like Chen Feng had said, he was a legend.

Chapter 775: Supreme Glory
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"I only wish to be stronger…" Chen Feng's words slowly turned into a sigh. As the others around heard this, they felt somewhat ashamed. True, he only wanted to become stronger. They shouldn't have assumed that he had poor talent just because they had failed to push him into the apostle realm. How could his heaven-defying talent be considered poor?
At this time, the minor god who was looking on from a distance was also thoroughly stupefied. He had known that Chen Feng was rather strong. However, he had never expected that Chen Feng was so strong that he could even defeat a veteran apostle with a single punch. This Chen Feng… The minor god's heart trembled as he thought about this. He knew that after this battle, Chen Feng's name would be known far and wide.
"How strong."
This was what all the apostles there were thinking. Even Shi Yong, a veteran apostle, had failed to receive a single attack from Chen Feng. This fellow was much more terrifying than they had initially imagined.
"However," a certain apostle suddenly said, "if you can't break through even with this, then there is no hope for you to break through, right?"
Shua!
Suddenly, everyone was startled from their reverie. True, if even this many gods couldn't help him break through, what hope did he have? Was Chen Feng strong? Yes. However, this was already his limit. As for apostles… The apostle realm was a unique stage, as it was the strongest realm below godhood. Theoretically, an apostle could increase his strength without limit. So long as the apostle was strong enough, there would be no limit to their growth. The apostle could continue pressing on toward the realm of the gods, pushing on without limit until, one day, they became a god.
This was the ultimate dream of nearly every apostle. As for a resonator? This would be impossible. Level 10 resonance was the peak of the realm, their limit. Apart from that, only their talent could grant them some extra strength beyond this limit. However, to continuously improve in this manner would be too difficult. This was probably the furthest Chen Feng would ever reach.
At this thought, for reasons unknown, the apostles present all heaved a sigh of relief. The future strongest apostle? The number one existence below the gods? No, that would not happen. It was quite probable that there weren't any gods capable of helping him break through.
Today, more than a hundred major gods had come here. This was a gathering of nearly all of the comparatively powerful gods in existence. However, not a single one had succeeded. How could this Chen Feng have any sort of future?
"What a pity."
This was the thought of a lot of the gods there. If so powerful a resonator were to become an apostle… The gods sighed inwardly.
Right at this moment, a cold voice resounded. "Can I give it a try?"
Instinctively, everyone turned around. When they saw the owner of the voice, their expressions changed greatly.
"Lord Zero?" they all cried out in alarm. Zero was a major god with formidable strength. Furthermore, he was a subsidiary god of the Sin God. For him to have appeared here… Could it be that this Chen Feng had even attracted the attention of the Sin God? The mere thought caused them all to be incomparably shocked.
Chen Feng nodded. "Fine."
Hum—
Zero tried inserting his godly power into Chen Feng. However, it only persisted shortly. After sensing his godly power vanishing, he stopped.
"Your power is very weird." Zero gave it some thought and said, "I'm afraid that no gods are capable of helping you break through."
Hua—
Everyone clamored as they heard this. Not a single god could help him? As a representative of the Sin God, these words were no different than the death penalty.
"Hmph, so what if you are strong?"
Shi Yong appeared elated. Even though Chen Feng was stronger, he had no future. He would be forever stuck at this stage. Eventually, he would die of old age.
"Pitiful."
Some apostles took joy in this. Toward this excessively stunning counterpart, a lot of them held no small amount of envy.
"This is how it should be."
"Looks like the heavens are still fair. At the same time he was granted his freakish talent, his future was also severed, haha."
"Isn't that right?"
These were the thoughts of many of the people there.
"I know," Chen Feng replied after taking in a deep breath. With this fake nascent soul, it was impossible for him to become an apostle. Moreover, the nascent soul had seemingly reached its limit. Earlier, when he had been absorbing Zero's godly power, he had been able to clearly sense that the miniature person within him no longer was no longer improving in any way. He had already reached his limit. Physically, he was at the peak of the resonance realm, and inwardly, his fake nascent soul had already reached the great-circle stage.
Chen Feng found that he was indeed stuck at some sort of limit. As such, he had no choice but to ascertain whether he could still improve. He was not willing to stop here. How, exactly, was he supposed to continue improving?
Chen Feng sighed inwardly. "My plans have crashed with the reality after all."
His initial plan had been to trick the gods into supplying him with godly power. Yet now, having reached the limit of the godly power he could absorb, his lies had transformed into reality. He had indeed become as strong as the strongest of apostles. This was initially a lie he had spread. Yet now, he was truly stuck at this level.
"Is this my retribution for all my lies?" His heart ached. Had he tricked way too many gods, to the point that his fate was now tricking him as well? Without Misfortune and Luck by his side, his future was unclear. He could only try progressing with his own effort. However, this was predicated on his path forward not being a dead end.
"He will be stuck here," the apostles around him said in low voice. After being sure of this, their gazes when looking at Chen Feng were filled with sympathy. All the jealousy and competitiveness vanished like puffs of smoke. What purpose was there in competing against a person without a future?
Some prepared to leave. "Let us disperse."
"Let's go."
The gods also prepared to leave. Since Chen Feng's future was already fixed, there was no point in staying behind. However, just as they were about to leave, Zero suddenly said, "With your present strength, are you interested in taking on the trial of godhood ascension?"
Bang!
This sentence was like the loudest of peals of thunder as it rumbled in the minds of all the gods here. Trial… Godhood ascension? This little fella? This…
"How is this possible?" the apostles cried out in alarm.
One ought to know that only the strongest of apostles, those widely known, those experts with reputations reaching far and wide were qualified to take on the trial of godhood ascension, to try to become a supreme god. Regardless of success or failure, the act of participating in a trial of godhood ascension was in itself the greatest glory an apostle could ever have. And now Chen Feng would be participating in such a trial?
The apostles collapsed emotionally as they thought of this. A short while ago, they had still been looking down on Chen Feng due to his lack of a future. Never had they expected that this resonator that could not be an apostle would actually reach such height. Suddenly, they felt like they were the jokes rather than Chen Feng.
Indeed, Chen Feng could not be an apostle. However, it was never a fixed fact that only apostles could try their hand at godhood ascension. So long as one was sufficiently powerful, any life-form could try. Chen Feng had proved with his own hands that he was not lacking compared to any of the apostles. This signified that he was only one step away from godhood. He did not need to try to resonate with other gods. The moment he succeeded in his challenge, he would directly skip past the apostle realm and ascend to godhood!

Chapter 776: Cannon Fodder
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Gods were existences beyond all realms. If one were to say that the gap between awakened ones and resonators was a gap of a hundred times, and that the gap between resonators and apostles was also a hundred times, between apostles and gods, the gap would be so large the word "astronomical" would be apt to describe it.
A god was, after all, a god. Under normal circumstances, if an apostle wanted to try to ascend to godhood, they would have to increase one's strength to level 10, 15, 20, or perhaps something even greater. Only this would make it possible.
Naturally, this would merely grant the apostle the qualification to attempt. One ought to know that even though the Sin God had indeed opened the channel of godhood ascension to all, the last apostle that had taken the trial had been a level 36 apostle, which was an extremely terrifying level. Ultimately, that apostle had successfully become a god, transcending the millions upon millions of life-forms.
Godhood ascension was the dream of all apostles. Nevertheless, this was an extremely long path. Therefore, it had never crossed their minds that Chen Feng would be qualified to take on this challenge as well. They had never expected that Chen Feng had already threaded upon the same path they were all threading, and had even reached the end.
"He has actually reached this height?" The minor god was filled with a melancholic feeling. The ultimate destination of every outstanding apostle would definitely be the trial of godhood ascension. However, even if the apostle passed the trial, he would still be tied to his initial god, thus becoming a subsidiary god. The minor god had never expected to obtain such a subsidiary god, as he himself was a minor god, the lowest of gods. One could say that he wasn't even qualified to be a subsidiary god himself, let alone gain one. When it came to apostles, he only had one.
A subsidiary god? He had never dared to dream of having one. Yet now… Things were about to become rather fascinating.
"After seven days, the godhood trial will be activated on the Bamboo Isles."
Finishing his words, Zero left. His words had instantly caused the atmosphere here, which had been rather still, to become filled with noise.
"Activating the godhood trial?"
"So yet another godhood position is going to be challenged?"
"A storm is about to start on the Bamboo Isles."
"Lord Zero actually activated a trial specifically for Chen Feng. Good lord…"
"Hmph. Chen Feng is a mere resonator. Therefore, this trial will probably be different than in the past. After all, each trial has different difficulty levels. In that case, the number of participants…"
The mere thought was sufficient to plant fear in them. In fact, the activation of the godhood trial signified that anyone meeting the requirements would be able to participate in the trial. In the past, only the strongest of apostles had been able to join such a trial. Regular people had had no hope of getting involved.
Yet now… Chen Feng? A mere resonator? It was quite likely that a huge number of apostles would participate in this challenge. The number of participants this time would most definitely surpass all imaginations.
…
Chen Feng frowned. "Something seems off."
Initially, he had been quite pleased that this major god had such high expectation for him. However, after gaining more understanding of the so-called godhood trial, his keen senses told him that this was definitely not as simple as it seemed. After all, it was as the others had said. Godhood trials were the supreme glory for all capable of participating in them, success or failure.
However, that would also be equivalent to the final battle. The sole reason that this was the final battle was that, for any single person, that person could only attempt this trial once in his entire life. The moment one failed, they would forever be unable to become a god. Moreover, a godhood trial could, in a way, be understood as a tribulation of sorts, a tribulation that everyone else could partake in as well as the selected individual.
Anyone could join, yet only a single person would successfully ascend. Therefore, was this godhood trial one truly activated for his sake? Or perhaps…As Chen Feng looked at the excited apostles, he suddenly understood. He had unknowingly become a cannon fodder of a certain someone.
…
In a certain location, a certain petite figure was lying down on a bench.
"Interesting. Looks like Zero still agreed to our condition."
She smiled and patted the shoulder of a certain kneeling figure before her. "Your identity is rather unique. Therefore, it would be rather difficult to get a godhood trial activated for your sake. This trial being activated for Chen Feng will be the perfect opportunity for you. He is a mere resonator. Therefore, the difficulty of this trial will definitely be rather low. What you need to do is defeat all the apostles, then ascend to godhood," she gently said.
"Yes!" the kneeling figure loudly answered.
…
In a different location, an old man was filled with doubt. "What does Zero's mean by this?"
Zero had obviously rejected their request, yet he had activated a trial for Chen Feng. Why? Could it be that Zero had agreed to the others' request?
"Well, it doesn't matter."
The old man's gaze was filled with hope. The activation of a trial was too rare an occasion. Even the descendants of the gods would only have a single shot at ascension. In a way, it was their luck to be living in such a unique era where mortals could ascend to godhood. Everyone who was capable could participate in the challenge.
That was why every single apostle capable of participating in a trial was incomparably precious to their respective gods. The truth was that the difficulty of each activated trial was directly related to the person taking the trial. This time, with Chen Feng, a mere resonator, being the person taking the trial… All the gods were wild with joy, since the difficulty level would most certainly be lower.
Chen Feng himself hadn't the faintest idea just how far-reaching the effects of this trial would be.
"Chen Feng…" The old man smiled. "Little Jie, this time, remember to give Chen Feng more care."
"Yes," answered the middle-aged man called Little Jie.
The old man calmly said, "Since we are snatching his godhood from him, we have to show some sincerity, right? However, although the difficulty level will be lower this time, there are still a lot of things you have to pay attention to, especially that old witch's lover."
…
Not long after, the news of the trial spread everywhere. Countless gods started to get involved. There was nothing they could do about the trials that were activated for the stronger apostles. After all, their descendants might not be able to handle the challenges presented by trials at that level. However, a trial at this level, a trial based on Chen Feng's level? Some gods analyzed that Chen Feng's present strength should be equivalent to a level 10 apostle, rather similar to a veteran apostle.
Reaching this height with his identity as a resonator was completely unheard of. However, there was still quite a gap from this level to the level of the strongest of apostles.
"This shall be my stage," a certain level 21 apostle said.
"That is not for sure," said a certain level 20 apostle that was not willing to fall behind. This was an incredibly rare chance, a chance that they were not willing to miss. As for that Chen Feng…
"What a pity. I suppose he has yet to realize that he has been made into cannon fodder, right?"
"What a pitiful little fella."
"Even if he can unleash power equivalent to a level 10 apostle, this will still be too difficult for him."
"Spare his life in this challenge. That can be considered a way of repaying him for activating the trial for all of us."
"Not a problem."
The apostles all reached an agreement. Regardless of who it was that ascended in the end, they would spare Chen Feng's life. They were the descendants of gods and were foreordained to become gods in the future. As far as they were concerned, it was only a matter of time before they were gods. Therefore, even if this was a competition between them, they still needed to maintain their connections with each other.
…
"This is roughly what's going on."
The minor god sighed after he explained all this to Chen Feng. When he had first found out that Chen Feng had activated a trial, he had been rather excited as well. However, when he found out the truth behind all this, he was thoroughly stunned. Those damnable gods' descendants!
Chen Feng smiled happily. "What an interesting trial. Am I right?"
"You can still smile?" The minor god's head ached. "Those gods' descendants are also apostles. However, their innate bloodlines have ensured that they are all incomparably powerful. All of them are already above level 20 apostles now. I should have thought of this earlier. Only the joint persuasion of those gods could have convinced Zero to activate the trial for you."
The minor god was vexed.
"Isn't this good?" Chen Feng was as calm as ever. "If I had to rely on myself, I don't know how long it would have taken to actually become the strongest apostle and activate the godhood trial through the regular channel."
"But those fellows…" The minor god was extremely anxious. At this point, he was regretting helping Chen Feng.
"They do not matter." Suddenly, Chen Feng asked, "I seem to recall that gods are not allowed to kill each other, and if there are any conflicts, a ruling from the Sin God is to be requested, right?"
"Yes," the minor good answered. This was something he was extremely clear on. Otherwise, the minor gods would have long died at the hands of those major gods.
"Very good." Chen Feng gazed in the direction of the Bamboo Isles, seemingly exceptionally pleased. "I no longer have anything to worry about. Next, let us all take a good look at who, exactly, is actually cannon fodder here."

Chapter 777: The Scary Divine Seat
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
"You're really going?" the minor god asked as he looked at Chen Feng.
"Yes," Chen Feng answered without the slightest hesitation. He had to figure out for himself what exactly this so-called godhood ascension was. One could say that, for the resonance and apostle realms, the difference was the level of the godly power they could muster. Chen Feng was currently stuck and was not capable of advancing further. As such, he had to figure out what godhood meant.
After godhood, how would one's strength continue to increase? And what exactly was it that determined whether one was a god or not? He had to figure that out.
The minor god spoke honestly. "In this battle, you might be nothing but cannon fodder."
Chen Feng shook his head. "Nevertheless, I still have to try, right?" Suddenly, he recalled something and asked, "How did you ascend to godhood?"
"Me?" The minor god stayed silent for a long time before saying, "I can't remember. It feels like… since the day my thoughts come into existence, I have been a god."
Chen Feng: "…"
It was no wonder this god was this weak.
Chen Feng instinctively asked, "What is the difference between a god and a normal life-form?" If he could find an answer from this minor god, he would perhaps have more confidence.
The minor god shook his head. "I don't know. Among the millions upon millions of life-forms, their energy makeup and flesh are different. I don't have any understanding of that, and I have no basis from which to draw a conclusion. As for you…"
The minor god reached out with his hand, trying to cast his senses into Chen Feng's sea of consciousness. Unsurprisingly, he was unable to sense anything.
The minor god shrugged. "I still can't sense anything."
"Fine." Chen Feng could only smile bitterly at this. He did not know if having this fake nascent soul good or bad. This nascent soul had provided him with might far surpassing his imagination, enabling him to challenge those of a higher realm. However, at the same time, the nascent soul had also severed his route of advancement. He could no longer become an apostle, become stronger. Perhaps… only godhood ascension would change this.
The minor god paused. "Wait. I have some resources here. They were offerings from my past believers. I initially planned to use them on my apostle to increase his strength. Perhaps these resources can be of use to you."
Chen Feng's eyes shone. "Oh?"
The minor god handed the resources to Chen Feng.
The resources were comprised of numerous bizarre yet powerful fruits, medicinal herbs, and so on. After studying them for a bit, Chen Feng turned all of them into gene reagents. However, even though these items could be used by apostles, even after Chen Feng's gene production, the improvement they provided him was rather feeble. From level 10 resonance, he rose to level 12 resonance. With so many gene reagents, he had only obtained two levels.
"How pitiful."
Chen Feng was disappointed. He knew that his advancement would be harder and harder. However, one piece of good news for him was thus: as his miniature person had entered the great-circle stage, even though it was no longer capable of improving, the amplification effect it brought now was the cube of whatever level he was at. For instance, his present amplification effect was 12 times 12 times 12.
"Therefore, after converting from resonance to apostle, I am roughly equivalent to a level 17 apostle?"
Chen Feng clenched his fists tightly. He wasn't particularly powerful. However, every single bit of growth, however weak it was, would have a qualitative change after the amplification effect. As such, each level he gained brought about a rather astonishing effect. If he could advance by maybe a level or two… Chen Feng's heart trembled at the thought.
Naturally, the gene reagents he had produced had not purely consisted of strength-increasing reagents. Half of them were actually reagents with various buffing or explosive effects. This was a battle he had to emerge victorious from.
…
While all this was happening, all the apostles that were planning to participate in the trial were making their respective preparations. Naturally, not a single one of them saw Chen Feng as an opponent. Rather, their sights were set on those comparatively powerful apostles, those gods' descendants. In all the past trials, the trials itself were the hardest part. This time, though, the trial would be the easiest; their competitors would be the actual problem.
"A trial activated by resonance will most definitely not be hard. Therefore, the difficulty of the trial itself can be neglected."
"Even though Chen Feng's feat of challenging apostles as a resonator is rather astonishing, he is only capable of unleashing combat power equivalent to a level 10 apostle. He is negligible. Therefore, our opponents will be the other participants! Their strength… will most definitely not be simple…"
"Understood."
"Take this with you."
"Ah? There is no need, right? This is but a single battle…"
"This time, you must ascend. I have a bad premonition, as if something is about to happen sometime soon. Therefore, before then, you must ascend as soon as possible."
"All right."
…
All the participants were preparing themselves. After seven days, countless apostles descended upon the Bamboo Isles. Zero also appeared out of thin air. Before the shocked gaze of numerous beings, he used a single hand to rip the sky apart, forcefully ripping half of the world and revealing an astonishing alien world behind the sky.
"This time, this is where the trial will be held."
Shua!
The sky was ripped apart. Within the alien world that was revealed, a divine seat was faintly discernible. It flickered with a faint glow, showing clearly the tier of the seat being offered.
"Indeed, it is the lowest tier."
Almost immediately, countless apostles charged forth. They were all filled with excitement and expectation. They could not wait to immediately take on the trial. With Chen Feng's identity as a resonator, this trial activated for his sake would most definitely be the lowest rank of all. However, this would also be the easiest trial ever.
What were the so-called godhood trials? They were, in fact, challenges toward the origin strength of the god who had previously occupied the position. If it was a high tiered seat, the trial would employ around 20% of the original god's strength. For apostles, this was extremely terrifying, an almost insurmountable trial. If it was a mid-tier seat, perhaps only around 10% of the original god's strength would be employed. As for a low-tier seat, perhaps only around 5% of the original god's strength would be employed. As for this seat before them, this was the lowest of the low, employing only around 1% of the original god's strength.
In other words, the mirror image of the god they had to face in this trial would possess only 1% of the original god's strength, an unspeakably weak amount. Therefore, nearly anyone could succeed in this trial. As such, they had to move as quickly as possible. As for their opponents, those would be the competitors around them, who were all aiming for the godhood.
Bang! Bang!
Immediately after entering the alien world, the battle erupted.
The apostles started fighting each other, not allowing anyone to get ahead of them. They exhausted everything they had to stop others from advancing while they themselves advanced. From the start, the battle was an extremely bitter one. Not far away, at the entrance of the alien world, Chen Feng was staring ahead blankly, not entering.
The observers started talking about him.
"What's wrong with him?"
"No idea. I suppose he is shocked at what he's witnessing?"
"Well, that is understandable. After all, he probably never imagined that godhood trials would be so cruel, right?"
"Sigh, what a pity."
"That's not necessarily a pity. If he gives up on this, he might be able to preserve his life."
"True."
There was still some attention being focused on this unique trial-taker. However, unknown to all of them, Chen Feng was truly staring blankly because he was overly shocked. However, he was not shocked by the apostles. Rather, he was shocked by the alien world. Wasn't this world the Twin Horns World, where the Sin God had previously resided?
In short… the so-called divine seat… Chen Feng's gaze landed on the center of the alien world, landing on that faintly glowing divine seat. His heart chilled. If his guess was correct, this seat… was the seat for the position of the Sin God! That was because, from his memories, there was only one god in the Twin Horns World.
Wait, no. That did not seem quite right. Chen Feng was filled with doubt. A godhood trial should obviously be a trial for the godhood of a deceased god. Why would the divine seat of the Sin God be offered here? After all, he was the strongest god of this new era.
"What exactly have I misunderstood?"

Chapter 778: The Truth: Challenging Crazily
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
Ye! It really is him!
When Chen Feng finally saw the faint mirror image, his heart chilled. Even though the mirror image was somewhat blurry, Ye had left an extremely deep impression on Chen Feng from the one time Chen Feng had seen him. This was truly him. But how was this possible?
Theoretically, it was indeed possible to directly issue a challenge to the divine seat of an existing god. However, the premise for that was a lack of vacancies among the divine seats. Since nearly 80% of the divine seats were unoccupied, why would the Sin God's divine seat appear here as a trial? This was especially questionable since the activation of this trial had been supervised by Zero himself.
Chen Feng was alarmed. "What is the meaning of this?" Could it be that his identity had been exposed? As he thought about this, he no longer felt like entering this alien world. What exactly was going on? Unknown to Chen Feng, at the same time, beyond the sky, the Sin God was extremely alarmed as well.
The instant Zero had activated the trial, he had clearly felt an intense sense of thought traveling through the void and directly locking on to him. This was quite a wondrous feeling.
This is… divine seat trial? The Sin God was filled with astonishment. Why was the trial on him, especially since Zero was the one supervising the activation?
He looked at Zero. "What's going on? Have you found any problems with this Chen Feng fellow?"
"Nope." Zero had a blank expression. "The trial was indeed activated by me and has nothing to do with him. However, I did what I have always done: activate a random divine seat. It is not supposed to be your divine seat."
This random activation was a system where priority was given to vacant divine seats. Only when there were no vacant seats would the trial fall on an existing god's seat. However, no matter what, the Sin God's divine seat should not have been selected.
Hum—
Sin God shut both his eyes and sensed this unique aura. Suddenly, he smiled.
"Looks like… some fellows are getting disobedient now," he muttered to himself. He could sense some other power at work here. "Looks like someone is borrowing your hand and Chen Feng's trial to provoke me."
What? Zero's heart trembled. To provoke Ye, had those fellows gone mad?
"What about this trial, then?" Zero asked.
This trial was quite unique, as due to Chen Feng's level, the trial would only employ 1% of the original god's strength. However, this was the seat of the Sin God!
"It is a pity about them," Ye said apathetically. Evidently, when he uttered these words, those people were as good as dead to him.
Zero understood what he meant. "Yes."
"Who could it be?" The Sin God gazed at the sky. The entire world was under his control. Who exactly was it that was provoking him? And what kind of power was being used to be able to affect even this trial? "No matter who you are, you are courting death."
…
At this time, amid the boundless starry sky, that figure was still seated calmly on the throne. However, different from the past, an astonishingly beautiful young lady was by his side this time. She stood by his side, her gaze on that blue planet.
"Finally, things are getting interesting."
He was still spinning the ring on his finger, seemingly filled with expectation.
"Do you think Chen Feng can emerge victorious?" he asked the young lady by his side.
However, he received no response.
"Tsk. Still not willing to talk to me? Fine. Let me make a guess. In this trial, Chen Feng will die," he said with a smile.
Shua!
Suddenly, the young lady's gaze focused on him.
"He will truly die, yo." Slowly, his expression became cold. "Chen Feng is but a seed, a seed raised by me. After completing his task, it will be time for him to die. Now is the time for that."
He continued lightly spinning the ring. At this moment, the countless stars seemed to shift together as a bizarre power started to surge toward Chen Feng.
"A trial-taker can only take on the trial of a god of their era. Since Chen Feng is a person of the Genetic Era, he can only challenge the divine seat of a god that existed during the Genetic Era. All the other gods have been thoroughly killed by the Sin God; his divine seat is the only one from that era that remains. As such, the only trial Chen Feng can activate is the Sin God's divine seat."
Shua!
He stood up. The huge throne started to glow as the radiance converged and started taking the form of a silhouette.
Hum—
Behind the silhouette was a faint wing of light that ultimately transformed into a sword of light that was held in the silhouette's hand.
"Now, it's is my turn to make a move. Go," he said softly.
Shua!
Instantly, the silhouette vanished after flickering. When the silhouette appeared once again, it was already within the planet, on the Bamboo Isles. With a single step, he stepped into the alien world hosting the trial. This silhouette was actually intending to challenge the trial as well.
The young lady's cold voice resounded. "Forming a clone to challenge the trial of the Sin God's divine seat? So it turns out that this is your actual goal."
"Naturally." He smiled calmly. "This trial will only employ 1% of the Sin God's strength. I am truly quite looking forward to this. The moment he loses his divine seat will also be the moment of his death."
"Even without his divine seat, his strength is still unparalleled," the young lady said coldly.
"I know. However, without his spirit seat, he will lose the faith of the millions upon millions of lives of the human world. His strength will drop to its lowest point. Regardless of how strong he is, without the nourishment of faith, I am capable of ensuring his death." He smiled. "I am quite looking forward to the strength of the Sin God."
"You will not succeed," the young lady stated calmly.
He felt somewhat doubtful. "Oh? Because of the Sin God?"
"No." The young lady shook her head and focused her gaze on the Bamboo Isles. There, the arrival of the silhouette had attracted everyone's attention. The powerful aura the silhouette was radiating caused everyone to feel fear.
"Who is that?"
"I have never seen him."
"How powerful. He is no weaker than a level 40 apostle."
"How are the others supposed to compete against this?"
"Good lord, as someone so strong, why is he even here competing against us?"
All the apostles howled in grief as they found that this silhouette was truly too powerful.
"Silhouette…" Chen Feng stared at the silhouette that had suddenly appeared, and he gained some sort of understanding as to what was happening.
This so-called trial activation had transformed into the prelude to a war between gods. A certain powerful existence was making use of him to issue a challenge to the Sin God. He had transformed into a chess piece. However, Chen Feng was not quite bothered about this. This was because he knew that after this trial, the true war between gods would erupt.
The Sin God would never allow anyone to provoke him this way. At that time, a massive slaughter would begin. And since that unknown god had dared to start this, he would most certainly not allow the Sin God to easily escape from this trial.
Therefore, without a doubt, this trial was of extremely great importance.
This battle…
Suddenly, Chen Feng's heart trembled. At present, he was still too far from the Sin God. Accumulate enough strength that he could pose some sort of challenge to the Sin God would take too long. However… what if he emerged victorious from this trial?
Would that not mean that the millions upon millions of the human world's lives would temporarily belong to him? Granted, with his strength, even after ascension, he would not be able to protect humanity. Even with temporary ownership over the faith of humanity, he would still be thoroughly defeated by the Sin God. However, so long as he had control over the human world for even a single instant… Chen Feng's heart started burning with passion.

Chapter 779: Challenge Start
Translator: Limostn Editor: Tennesh
During the past era, when there had been no vacant divine seats, what would have happened if someone succeeded in challenging a trial? The god who had originally occupied the divine seat would be temporarily displaced. After all, if an occupied divine seat was successfully challenged, it proved how weak the god was. And naturally, the god deprived of a divine seat would no longer enjoy the power of faith.
He would have to initiate a challenge of his own and succeed at the trial to retake the divine seat to once again enjoy the power of faith. This was how the divine seat trial used to work. However, Chen Feng's trial was an incredibly special one. Due to the unique circumstances and the deliberate doings of certain people, what had appeared this time was the incredibly rare resonator's divine seat trial. In this trial, only 1% of the original's god strength would be exhibited.
Moreover, this trial had been approved by the original god himself, the Sin God. Therefore, the Sin God had completely fallen into this trap set for him. However, even 1% of the strength of this incomparably powerful Sin God was not something a regular person could ever hope to contend with, especially in this situation where, with the exception of Chen Feng, only apostles were taking part in the trial.
"In short… that fellow is also displaying the strength of an apostle." Chen Feng frowned. He could see that the newcomer was extremely powerful. However, the silhouette was still not necessarily more powerful than the Sin God. Moreover, Chen Feng also had a question. Who exactly was this fellow? Under the Sin God's control, nearly all the gods and apostles were subservient to him. If so, who was this that had dared to challenge the Sin God? There was only one possibility. This challenger was not a person of this era, the era of Sin God.
Chen Feng thought of a possibility. "A god that awoke during the Genetic Era?" This situation was only possible if this god had awoken during the Genetic Era and had intelligently hidden his aura and not participated in any battles. However, after the Sin God had recovered, the entire world was transformed by him. As such, his senses should have swept past the entirety of the world. How had this fellow remained hidden from the Sin God?
The only answer to that was outer space. Chen Feng gasped in shock at this realization. Suddenly, he recalled how, back then, numerous spaceships had headed to outer space, yet all of them had vanished without a trace. Toward the end, the Genetic Union had indeed deployed some people to investigate this. Alas, they had still been waiting for results when the Sin God recovered and conquered the world. In short, this god had hidden in outer space?
"Oh—"
Suddenly, Chen Feng's heart started palpitating.
Suddenly, a terrifying power emerged, seemingly trying to erase something. However, after encountering the miniature person within him, the power was noiselessly erased.
"That power has appeared yet again." Chen Feng's eyes gleamed coldly. This time, he had been able to clearly sense the existence of the power. Outer space… So long as one thought about it, that power would emerge to erase that thought? Why? Because of that god? It seemed like he had indeed been made a chess piece. Indeed, he was a chess piece. However, from the moment that god had started involving himself in everything that was happening, which of them was not but a chess piece?
Chen Feng's eyes gleamed coldly. "Now, let us see who shall be laughing in the end…"
Bang!
He strode forth into the alien world. Next, the entire alien world throbbed with godly power, signifying the official start of the trial.
…
Within the alien world, the moment the silhouette appeared, several apostles were killed in succession by him. This shocked the other apostles so badly that they all started getting out of his way.
"Who is that fellow?"
"No idea. Is he a newcomer like Chen Feng?"
"He is very strong. The apostles that have been killed were all level 15 apostles, yet not a single one of them was able to endure one of his moves."
"Damn it."
All the apostles had unsightly expressions.
"He is heading directly toward the divine seat."
"Seems like we are nothing to him."
"Hehe. Those god's descendants will not watch on as this divine seat is stolen right before them."
"Let us go nearer as well."
They followed along noiselessly. At this time, in the numerous crooks and corners of this alien world, something similar was happening. Even if the regular apostles had charged into this world the moment it opened, when the truly powerful apostles appeared, they were reduced to nothing but cannon fodder.
Pu! Pu!
Blood splattered everywhere. One powerful apostle after another revealed themselves. There was a certain apostle with extraordinary strength. The moment he entered this world, he started slaughtering everyone he encountered. Every apostle that dared to provoke him was ripped apart, showcasing his dreadful strength.
"It's him! I have seen him once before. He is the descendant of a major god," a random apostle cried out in alarm.
At the same time, in a different part of the alien world, a certain apostle had just entered.
In his hand was a huge hatchet that was glowing with overflowing colors. A single wave was all it took to kill an apostle. Moreover, with a single wave, even a mountain was cut in two. His strength was evident.
Yet another apostle cried out in alarm. "I have seen that apostle as well."
"Good lord, he is the brother of a certain powerful god."
"I always thought that he was already a god. Unexpectedly, he has yet to participate in a trial."
…
Since the level of this trial was too low, all the apostles that had previously been unqualified to participate in such a trial were now here.
"Tsk tsk, so this I what a divine seat trial is."
"Is this your first time?"
"Of course. I am but a mere level 8 apostle. Haha, don't worry. I will most definitely not enter deeply into the world and will only be staying in the outer region."
"Haha, let us bask in the light of these big shots as they ascend into godhood."
"I suppose it is sufficient for us to enjoy the soup when the big shots are eating the meat."
Such words started appearing from the mouths of some of the apostles. Evidently, a lot of them were only here to join in the fun.
A certain level 15 apostle frowned when he saw these apostles. "These people are clearly feeling suicidal." It was fine for them to be weak. However, were they not worried that the mere fluctuations of the battles here would injure or even kill them? After all, they were truly too weak.
"It doesn't matter. They can do whatever they want. And to fish in troubled water, is this not how the world has always been?" a friend of the level 15 apostle said.
"True." He chuckled before lowering his voice, "Will you be participating in this trial as well?"
"Me?" The friend smiled bitterly. "I am but a mere level 12 apostle."
"Heh, who are you trying to trick?" the other apostle said in a low voice. He started egging his friend on. "Your combat power is different than your actual level. I can remember clearly how, when you were a level 1 apostle, you were already capable of defeating a level 13 apostle. Now that you are already a level 12 apostle, this trial… there is no harm in trying, right? Perhaps you might even succeed?"
The friend shook his head. "Nope, there is absolutely no chance of me succeeding."
"Because this is related to the Sin God?" The apostle appeared rather dispirited. There was nothing they could do about it. A trial like this was unprecedented, and some could already see that this was in some way related to the Sin God. However, they had yet to figure out what exactly was going on. Instinctively, they all believed that this was just a trial the Sin God had activated so that a certain person he had picked could ascend into godhood.
"No. Rather, I am not joining because of the trial-taker this time." He laughed and continued, "Chen Feng is not a person that will ever stay obedient."
The other apostle was filled with doubt. Chen Feng? That cannon fodder? Could he truly exert any sort of influence on an event at this level? He could not understand this reasoning. However, as he saw his friend's solemn expression, he instantly had a feeling that there was some profound mystery at work here. Perhaps this friend of his that had always been mysterious had once again obtained some secret information not known to anyone? It seemed like this trial would become interesting.
