Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Above the gray fog, Klein leaned back in his chair, his mind full of thoughts:

"Roselle hasn't been able to get out of Beldan yet. Most likely, some abnormalities occurred in the Land of Disorder, causing them to be trapped there. But fortunately, the divination results show that they are still alive, but they can't leave the city for the time being."

"But no matter what, Roselle couldn't make it to this battle of gods, and lost a great general for nothing."

"As for Adam, He cannot be trusted..."

Klein took stock of the situation while calmly adjusting his collar.

He looked around slowly, and let his eyes fall on the strange blue-black light door, and on the humans hanging there, wrapped in transparent "cocoons".

As he scanned them one by one, his sight fixed on the three broken transparent 'cocoons'.

The next second, Klein's figure disappeared and appeared in the gray fog of history. He walked step by step to the first era and walked into the layered old city.

He stood on the top of a dilapidated building that was barely standing, looking down at the piles of ruins of houses, public transportation that had turned into discus, and cars piled up one after another.

In silence, his eyes swept across the remaining houses, as if penetrating the barriers of history, and he saw electric lights lighting up one after another inside them.

The light from these electric lamps spread out softly, illuminating the glass, the buildings, the streets, and the ruins in a corner of the old city.

After staring for a long time, Klein retracted his gaze, took a step forward, and returned to the real world.

Then, he was teleported directly to the peak of the Honachis Mountains and 'saw' the ancient palace that was shrouded in mist, dilapidated, and overgrown with weeds.

The reason why this place was chosen as the place for becoming a god was not only out of a sense of ritual, but also because the authority of the Goddess of Night had penetrated deeply enough into this mountain, almost second only to the Church of Tranquility.

However, although the Goddess of Night would give him secret shelter, she would obviously not offer the Church of Tranquility as a sacrifice.

Therefore, the main peak of the Honachis Mountains is the best choice.

"call!"

Klein took a deep breath, stretched out his hand to the void, and pulled out a mask, a translucent surface engraved with the symbol of the 'Fool' - that was the uniqueness of the 'Fool' path, and also the foundation of his godhood!

The stage was set, the day of becoming a god was today, and he didn't have time to wait for Roselle to come out of Beldan.

After a month of continuous "dreams", the "Zeroth Era" has been deeply rooted in people's hearts, and people believe in it without a doubt. In contrast, the weight of the "Creator" in the hearts of the world has been reduced to almost zero.

But the Creator is different from the True God of Sequence 0. The True God needs to fight against the Creator, that is, the will of the 'Original', through faith to maintain himself. But the will of the 'Original' exists among all things. Even if the First Fire has spread to the entire world, the will of the 'Original' still exists, but it has been weakened a lot.

But for Klein, the difficulty of becoming a true god has not been reduced much.

Because although the will of the 'Original' has gradually faded, what Klein needs to face is not the 'Original', but the 'Lord of Mysteries', the 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun'!
Under the hidden protection, when Klein began to truly accept the uniqueness of the Fool's path and ascended to the stage of godhood, the will of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun immediately awakened in his body, and its spiritual imprint began to frantically impact Klein's self-awareness.

Like a sailboat in a storm, it is sometimes thrown high, sometimes shot down, sometimes eroded, and sometimes pushed sideways.

This made his thoughts extremely confused, as if he had split into two personalities. One was Zhou Mingrui who had merged with Klein, and the other was an ancient being named Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun!
The two are incompatible in his body. Once they meet, they corrode each other, trying to completely destroy each other and become the true 'Lord of Mysteries'! In this process, Klein's personality is at an absolute disadvantage, and he can only struggle to survive under the erosion of 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun'.

Such "intensity" was completely beyond Klein's expectations, but he immediately realized the reason - although "Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun" had fallen, his will and instinct had already realized his situation, and his erosion of Klein was precisely his last resistance!

Prayers and praises rang in his ears, interweaving together to form an illusory image that joined the chaotic battlefield. The image of the god, composed of many anchor points, was controlled by Klein to resist the erosion of Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun and achieve a new balance.

He is like a dam, struggling to resist the surging flood.

Klein also gradually found himself, maintaining a trace of clarity in the madness. In this process, Klein's "scam" of replacing "Origin" with "First Fire" and successfully deceiving and fooling all life, all time, all history and destiny in the world formed an indestructible mark in his body. The flames wrapped the mark, and it remained standing no matter how the flood washed it.

It is with the support of this brand that Klein's personality becomes more distinct and his self becomes stronger!

Facing the final counterattack of 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun', he must try his best, no one can help him.

But on the contrary, as long as he can maintain his self-esteem in this counterattack, 'Fusheng Xuanhuang Tianzun' will no longer be a problem for him!
Of course, the premise is that there are no accidents that interfere with his deification.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to avoid accidents.

But Klein's condition became more and more stable, and he was only one step away from becoming a true god. Then, the misty fog dissipated, and the illusory starlight shone into the hall. This ancient palace suddenly appeared in the dark and mysterious astral world, on the top of the main peak of the Honachis Mountains.

The secrets were lifted and destinies began to interact.

Adam, wearing a simple white robe and with a thick golden beard, watched all this quietly in the astral realm.

The secret authority could certainly protect Klein for a while, but at the final moment of becoming a god, Klein still needed to return to the astral realm and return to reality.

This was undoubtedly the weakest moment for Klein before he became a god, and it was also their last chance!

Behind Him, a blazing sun slowly rose up, and the dazzling light seemed to melt the entire world. But at this moment, a tall tower made up of countless books suddenly appeared, completely blocking the sun's light!

Adam was not at all surprised by this unexpected turn of events, and his expression remained extremely calm.

There will always be people trying to stop Him, but He doesn't care, because He doesn't need the extraordinary qualities of the Fool.

That's something Amon should consider.

At the same time, Amon entered the astral world and saw the main peak of the Honachis Mountains that was "grafted" here, and the ancient and dilapidated palace on the top of the peak.

“He” wore a pointed hat and a classical black robe and quickly rushed towards the palace, looking for Klein who was inside.

But suddenly, He saw a vague figure.

The figure was wearing a layered yet simple black dress dotted with countless stars.

He was as huge as a mountain, with a pair of arms covered with dark short hair growing out of his ribs and waist. He had a beautiful and gentle face covered with a thin black veil. His eyes seemed to condense the starry night sky, which made people feel peaceful and uncontrollably terrified. Two of his hands were dragging a long sickle, and the other held a bird-shaped golden ornament. The rest was empty, as if he was holding up an invisible thing.

Amon's mouth curled up slightly in a playful arc, and he was not panicked at all when facing the attacks of the three true gods.

Because He knew that there would always be someone to clear the obstacles for Him.

Sure enough, just as the 'Goddess of Night' raised the huge sickle, the main peak of the Honachis Mountains beneath her feet collapsed!

At the same time, one after another python-like black tentacles extended from somewhere in the star realm.

Each of these tentacles has an eye at the tip, which may be closed or open. Anything they see will instantly turn into gray stone, while anything directly touched by the tentacles will twist and stretch out their limbs and head, turning into women of varying sizes, some very good-looking.

Those tentacles turned into an impenetrable net, surrounding the 'Goddess of Night' and setting up numerous obstacles for her.

Countless witches of different sizes also brought about the collapse of all things, causing the entire main peak of the Honachis Mountains to move towards the direction of the huge stone ball. This caused the dilapidated outer wall of the ancient palace to collapse rapidly, exposing Klein in the palace to the astral world.

A red moon appeared from the starry sky, causing clumps of wheat, flowers, mushrooms, and trees to grow in the bare hall. They were entangled with each other, stacked layer by layer, and turned into a natural barrier that sealed the exposed Klein inside.

At this moment, a hazy light rose from the void and instantly decomposed all the plants around it!
In the blink of an eye, a gap appeared, and through the gap, Klein could be clearly seen inside.

And Amon has already seized this opportunity and tried to get into the 'palace' through the gap!
At this moment, a thundercloud suddenly condensed in the sky, and surging thunder fell from the sky, completely covering the airspace in front of Amon!
At this final critical moment, the Lord of Storms finally made His choice!
Even though Amon is a true god, he needs to pay a price to pass through this area covered by thunderstorms. Even if he cannot hurt Amon's roots, it is enough to delay him for a certain period of time, which is enough!

As for beings like the Goddess of Night, they do not expect to kill beings like Steaming Adam, they are just delaying time.

As long as Klein completely recovers himself and ascends to the throne of godhood, the situation can be reversed in an instant.

However, at the moment when the thunderstorm descended, a giant snake sprang out from the void, and bit the sky with its bloody mouth, swallowing up all the thunderclouds, and the last obstacle in front of Amon disappeared without a trace!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Amon successfully got through the gap and came to the palace, and came in front of Klein who was wearing a translucent mask!

The whole process went incredibly smoothly, so smoothly that it made people feel like there was something fishy going on.

But if you think about it carefully, this seems to be inevitable.

When Klein's three allies, the God of Knowledge and Wisdom, the Goddess of Night, and the Mother Goddess of the Earth were blocked by Adam, the Original Witch, and the God of Steam and Machinery respectively, he was left alone.

Of course, there is the unstable factor of the Storm Lord, but they also have a backup plan. The Undead Serpent has been coveting it in secret, so what can it do even if the Storm Lord takes action?

Roselle is the only one who can influence the war situation, but he is currently trapped in the Kingdom of Disorder.

This battle was ultimately their victory.

Amon straightened the monocle on his right eye and approached Klein step by step, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised:
"Mr. Fool, we finally meet..."

Amon's voice stopped abruptly because he saw a figure standing in front of Klein.

Yu Jin stared at Amon quietly and said calmly:

"You're a little early."

"Is it still early?"

Amon sighed, and He said that things couldn't be so smooth, the big thing turned out to be here!
He only regretted that he came too late. If he had come a little later, Klein would have really become a "fool". At that time, he would not be facing a "fool", but a dual-path true god who controlled the source essence, whose strength was almost equal to half of the "mystery" of the old days.

This was the last and only chance, and Amon had to seize it. But obviously, Klein also realized this, so he left the last insurance here.

However, Amon was not completely unprepared.

Amon suddenly chuckled and said:
"I am not your opponent."

Snapped!
Along with the dull sound of footsteps, a tall knight in armor suddenly appeared behind Amon, even though He was not there the moment before!

He appeared in the palace so suddenly, no one knew where he came from, but he could clearly make people feel the pressure of death.

"The incarnation of the Lord of Fire."

Yu Jin looked at the tall knight, his expression still calm.

He knew this day would come sooner or later.

Amon needs the uniqueness and Sequence 1 extraordinary characteristics of The Fool, and needs the Sefirah Castle.

Adam also needed the extraordinary characteristics and uniqueness of the other three of the five paths to omniscience and omnipotence.

Compared to them, what about Embers and First Flame?

They all possess only part of the characteristics of the 'First Fire'. Only by 'fusing' the other half of each other's characteristics can they become complete again and allow the 'First Fire' to truly replace the 'Creator' and become the creation myth of this world.

Among them, only one person can completely inherit the First Fire.

Just like between Amon and Klein, only one person can become the Lord of Mysteries.

The flames spread from behind the two men and spread to the entire mountain in the blink of an eye.

The next moment, both the ember and the knight disappeared.

Amon chuckled and walked towards Klein again.

He adjusted the monocle on his right eye and smiled playfully:

"No one will come to help you this time."
