Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 186 The Fall of the God of Glory
Without any entanglement, the God of Light released the power of rules through the body of the Angel of Light.

Under the influence of the rules of time, it is like snow encountering the scorching sun, melting at an extremely fast speed.

At the level of true gods, the battle between gods is basically a collision of different rules.

Various divine arts and artifacts are only used to expand the effect of the power of rules that one possesses in a certain aspect.

The rule of time is one of the most basic rules of heaven and earth, and the rules mastered by the God of Light are merely some minor details among the rules of heaven and earth.

There is a huge gap between the two sides in essence.

Even if the current God of Light uses the body of the Angel of Light to take action himself, the power of rules he controls far exceeds that of the Angel of Time.

But this still does not touch the realm of true God.

For most of the strongest forces below the true gods, the original glorious angels have the strongest level of combat power and are not so easy to deal with.

Add to that the personal control of the God of Light, and it becomes even more difficult to deal with.

But for the Angels of Time, it doesn’t make much difference whether the God of Light takes action personally or not.

It seemed as if only a moment had passed, or as if an immeasurable amount of time had passed.

Under everyone's gaze, the body of the glorious angel gradually dimmed and finally disappeared completely between heaven and earth.

After dealing with the Angel of Light, the Angel of Time did not continue to stay in reality.

He just glanced at the countless natives in the capital of the Central Empire and the many planes of the entire Glorious Realm.

The Angel of Time shook his head, left reality, and returned to the long history of the Dawn Empire.

The next moment, the entire capital of the Central Empire was affected by the fall of the Glorious Angel.

Just like when the army of the Alliance of All Spirits first descended into this world.

A similar scene happened again in the capital of the Central Empire, and it was even more tragic.

All the natives of the Central Empire's capital who witnessed this scene let out heart-wrenching howls.

The fall of the glorious angel caused a sense of loss in their hearts, and their entire souls suffered a huge shock.

Including the indigenous people outside the capital, even if they did not see this scene happen.

There was still an irrepressible great sorrow in their hearts, as if something very important to them had completely disappeared.

A violent fluctuation in the spatial level appeared above the capital of the Central Empire.

All the natives and the surrounding armies of the All-Spirit Alliance can be seen above the capital of the Central Empire.

A world full of light and hope is gradually becoming dim and even collapsing rapidly.

That is the kingdom of the God of Light.

The death and despair of countless believers have already had a huge impact on His Kingdom of God.

Now, with the fall of the Angel of Light, the core of the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of God of Light can no longer hold on and is about to collapse completely.

Not long after, under the watchful eyes of everyone, the kingdom of the God of Light completed its collapse and disappeared completely.

At the same time, a voice filled with sacred majesty suddenly rang out throughout the Glorious Realm.

"I say, let there be light..."

In the entire Glorious Realm, all believers of the God of Gloriousness heard the voice of their god at this moment.

The light of hope rose again in their hearts, and even took shape, and their whole bodies emanated a certain tangible light.

Under the influence of the thread of faith, these rays of hope separated from their bodies, went away into the distance, and finally gathered on a certain scepter.

"Ward, this is too cruel. They are treating their own believers like assholes..."

In the void in the distance, Zheng Jie, who witnessed everything, was stunned.

Even Chen Li showed a surprised expression: "It is indeed cruel and decisive."

I originally thought that the God of Light just wanted to use the despair of his believers to catalyze the power of his own rules and gain more blessings.

But judging from the current situation, the God of Light's purpose and means are not so gentle.

The kingdom of the God of Light has collapsed, partly because the war launched by the army of the Alliance of All Spirits had a significant impact on the believers of the God of Light.

But as the God of Light, the true God, it is not difficult to maintain his kingdom and ensure that it does not collapse, at least it will not collapse so quickly.

The collapse of the Kingdom of God was mainly the result of the God of Light himself.

Originally, for any god, the collapse of the kingdom of God is a very fatal thing.

Even if you don't die, you will have to pay a huge price.

However, the God of Light, with the support of the world's will and deliberate guidance, transferred the consequences of the collapse of the kingdom of God to his own believers.

Not only that, this was the result promoted by the God of Light himself.

After the collapse of the kingdom of God, it was not that nothing was left, but a scepter of divine level was formed.

In the endless void, it is difficult for indigenous gods like the God of Light to own a divine weapon of their own.

But now the God of Light has refined a divine weapon of his own at the cost of the collapse of the kingdom of God.

There is a certain difference between the blessing of the Kingdom of God on the true God and the blessing of the divine artifact on the true God.

However, since this artifact of the God of Light was made with His kingdom as the main material, its effect will definitely not be weaker than the blessing of the kingdom of God.

Moreover, the artifact is not as easily influenced by believers as the kingdom of God, and the artifact does not have any weaknesses that can be targeted.

If that were all, the God of Light's behavior wouldn't have stunned Zheng Jie, and even Chen Li would have been a little surprised.

The cruelest thing is that after the God of Light obtained the artifact, he immediately used the authority of the artifact to obtain the blessings of all believers.

The light of hope in those believers is not something that can be produced casually; it is a substance that is closely related to their souls.

After more than ten years of despair, and with the influence of the God of Light's artifact, the light of hope emanating from those believers was unusually strong.

They had already borne the price of the collapse of the Kingdom of God, which had a significant impact on their souls.

Now an extremely strong light of hope broke out again, consuming most of the strength in their souls.

These rays of hope will not be returned to them after the next battle is over.

It is no exaggeration to say that no matter what the outcome of the next battle is, the natives of the entire Glorious Realm are basically completely destroyed.

"By the way, among the powers wielded by the God of Light, is there something as abstract as the light of hope?"

Zheng Jie was a little confused. Is there any connection between the brilliance on the physical level and the light of hope on the spiritual level?

It can't be that just because they are all light, they can all be used by the God of Light, right?

If he had such ability, he would not just be the ruler of a primary realm. It would be entirely possible for him to grow to a level comparable to a middle-level true god or even a higher-level true god.

"Under normal circumstances, there definitely isn't any, but after all, He has received the blessing of the world's will, so it's normal for Him to possess some additional authority."

"Otherwise, just transferring the cost of the collapse of the kingdom of God is something that ordinary indigenous gods cannot do."

Chen Li's tone remained calm.

Although these actions of the God of Light were somewhat beyond his expectations, he did not take them to heart.

The other party is originally a true god-level deity, and has also obtained the blessing of the world's will. The rules of destiny that Chen Li currently controls are unlikely to have much impact on him.

Therefore, in a sense, it was expected that the God of Light would make such an unexpected move.

Both Zheng Jie and Chen Li have enough confidence to deal with the current God of Light.

"That's good too. The God of Light has revealed all his cards at once."

"Although I'll have to face Him at His strongest state right from the start, I can also put an end to it once and for all."

Chen Li had just finished speaking when the voice of the God of Light came again.

"You two are really confident..."

The God of Light appeared in front of Zheng Jie and Chen Li in an instant.

Compared to the glorious angels who have no specific appearance, the God of Light has the appearance of a solemn and sacred female figure.

In addition, the God of Light exudes an aura that makes people feel inexplicably close.

Judging from appearance alone, it is hard to believe that the God of Light in front of us is such a ruthless character.

At this moment, the God of Light looked at Zheng Jie and Chen Li. There was no hatred in his eyes, but rather peace.

Zheng Jie waved his hand. "Actually, I was a little skeptical before, but the Angel of Time has already offered good enough conditions. This is already very sincere."

"And instead of having any intention of considering it, you flew into a rage."

"It wasn't until I saw your subsequent actions that I finally understood."

"Believers are just tools to you. The only value of their existence is to serve you, the god."

"So, those conditions offered by the Angel of Time, which we thought were very generous, are simply ridiculous to you."

"You can't possibly give up your own interests for the interests of your believers."

"If the conditions the Angel of Time just offered were primarily for your benefit, you wouldn't have been so angry even if you still refused."

For the gods of Blue Star, their believers and themselves are not only a community of interests.

In terms of their own emotions, believers are also very important to them.

If the gods of Blue Star were facing the same dilemma as the God of Light.

Given the conditions given by the Angel of Time, most of the gods on Blue Star would probably agree without hesitation.

At least for Zheng Jie, he will definitely agree.

After all, given the current situation, most of the indigenous gods in the entire Crystal Wall system, except for a small number of them who surrendered directly, are just struggling to survive.

Even if he possessed many powerful trump cards and was able to contend against the True God of Blue Star, it would be meaningless.

There is no time limit for the Wanxiang God System's attack on the Crystal Wall System.

Even if he had strength beyond the Blue Star True God's expectations and was able to repel them, a new Blue Star True God would descend soon.

Unless one can contend with the entire Pantheon, any resistance will be meaningless and defeat is only a matter of time.

In this case, being able to allow one's believers to obtain the right to continue to survive and to gain an extra hope is already the best outcome.

At least his believers will never change their beliefs, and that is enough.

As for whether the descendants of one's believers will believe in other gods, that is no longer important.

But for most of the indigenous gods in the Endless Void, it is simply impossible for them to sacrifice themselves to fulfill their believers.

"You're not in a hurry to take action. Do you still want to discuss the terms of surrender with us?"

Chen Li also spoke at this time, his eyes fixed on the God of Light, putting considerable pressure on Him.

The true God who controls the rules of time, can have an angel under his seat who is absolutely invincible in strength under the true God.

In the understanding of the God of Light, such gods existed before their own world was invaded by those extraterritorial gods.

At the very least, they are qualified to become the master of a pantheon, or even compete for the throne of the king of gods.

Before this, He had never thought of it at all.

Among the gods who came to his primary realm, there were two true god-level beings, and one of them was even a true god who mastered the rules of time.

The God of Light did not deny Chen Li's question, but admitted it readily.

"Yes, if possible, I don't want to fight to the death with you two."

"As long as you can promise me not to change the rules of the Glorious Realm, I am willing to serve you as your subordinate god and dedicate everything I have to you."

The God of Light's solemn and holy gaze was fixed on Chen Li, and they looked into each other's eyes.

A holy goddess who is believed by all living beings says that she is willing to sacrifice everything for herself. Most people find this contrast hard to stand.

But Chen Li didn't care at all and just shook his head slightly.

"I'm sorry, I can't meet your condition. The conditions I can offer you are the same as before."

When the gods of Blue Star wage external wars in the endless void, they will modify the rules within countless crystal wall systems.

This is not only for their own growth, but also of great benefit to the entire Blue Star.

Moreover, for Blue Star, the rules within the entire crystal wall system must be modified before He can benefit from it.

These were just some local modifications that could not bring any feedback to Him.

Therefore, when conducting external wars, only after the rules within the entire Crystal Wall System have been modified can the corresponding pantheon receive rewards from the will of the Blue Star World.

If you don't modify the rules within the crystal wall system, not only will you be unable to obtain more rule blessings, but you will also lose the rewards of the Blue Star World's will.

Therefore, unless it is an extremely special crystal wall system, the Blue Star God System will choose not to modify its internal rules.

Under normal circumstances, modifying the rules is necessary. Of course, the entire Glorious Realm is nothing to Chen Li. His goal is to accommodate the believers of all members of the Ten Thousand Spirits Alliance.

Even after modifying the proportion of rules in this realm, Chen Li can still gain the blessing of the rules of heaven and earth.

However, given the size of the Glorious Realm, the blessing it can bring to Chen Li is very limited.

This plane of the material world cannot be compared with the kingdom of God.

Although both are large-scale planes, the blessing that the central world of the Glorious Realm can provide to Chen Li is less than one percent of that of the Cradle of Life.

Even if the rules of the entire Glorious Realm were modified, one would still have to rely on the world will of Blue Star to truly receive blessings.

In this process, there will definitely be some losses.

All in all, the blessing that the entire Glorious Realm can bring to Chen Li is actually very limited.

Of course, this is a process of accumulating little by little.

The true god of Blue Star has an infinite lifespan, and he has a kingdom of God located in the subspace of Blue Star that can guarantee his absolute safety.

Even if the blessing of a primary realm is very limited, as the number continues to increase, this blessing will become more and more significant.

Therefore, it is impossible for Chen Li to agree to the conditions of the God of Light.

He himself did not really value the blessing that the Glorious Realm could bring him.

Relatively speaking, a subordinate god at the level of a true god has greater appeal to him.

The many pantheons within Blue Star are not the same pantheon structure as that in the Endless Void.

There is no subordinate relationship among the gods within the pantheon, only a relationship between superiors and subordinates.

Including Chen Li’s ancestor, a special and powerful divine power comparable to the great divine power.

But for all the gods in the Pantheon, the God of All Things is only their leader, not the one who really dominates everything.

Only when facing some indigenous gods in the endless void will the gods of Blue Star accept them as their subordinate gods.

For the current Alliance of All Spirits, if another true god-level deity could join it, it would have significant benefits in all aspects.

But unfortunately, changing the rules is the main purpose of the entire Vientiane pantheon.

This crystal wall system is not an extremely special one, and it is not worth giving in to.

After hearing Chen Li's answer, the God of Light did not show any extra expression on his face.

After all, if it were so easy to save themselves, the many rule-based gods in the entire Crystal Wall system would not have been forced into a desperate situation by those extraterritorial gods.

"Unfortunately, we were unable to reach a consensus."

"I know that behind you, these extraterritorial gods, is a vast civilization that I can hardly imagine."

"Even if I can achieve a short-term victory, another god will come to take over."

"Complete destruction seems to be the only outcome for us rule-based gods."

"Even so, if I must fall into endless darkness, I will do my best to bloom the last radiance of our world."

The scepter of the God of Light burst out with endless light, and the power of the rules related to the entire realm of light seemed to be mobilized.

This is completely different from the power of rules that He had previously unleashed against the Angel of Time by controlling the body of the Angel of Light.

"He burned his divine power right away. How decisive!"

"This God of Light is not only cruel to his own followers, but also to himself. He seems to be determined to fight to the death with us..."

Faced with the power of rules erupting from the God of Light, Zheng Jie suddenly felt under tremendous pressure.

He himself had no accumulation, and all he knew were the rules corresponding to dwarves and forging.

Before he obtained the blessing of his own kingdom of God, his strength was basically at the bottom among the lower true gods.

The God of Light has accumulated tens of thousands of years of experience, and with the blessing of the world's will, he has increased the proportion of his own rules.

Now he is holding a divine weapon and burning divine power directly. If Zheng Jie doesn't fight hard, he will probably be suppressed in one encounter and will not be able to fight back at all.

"Leave it to me, you just assist from the side."

Chen Li had no intention of letting Zheng Jie be the main force, and took the initiative to meet the power of rules erupted by the God of Light.

If the previous Angel of Light created an illusion of the sun through the rules to put the army of the All Souls Alliance in the capital of the Central Empire into a threat of death.

So what the God of Light condenses now are real suns that look like real entities.

Any god or extraordinary being below the true God would be extremely anxious and in danger of life when facing such a sun.

Even if the Angel of Time wanted to deal with such a sun, it would not be easy.

At this moment, there were hundreds of suns falling towards Chen Li.

Among the hundreds of suns, only the smallest ones can pose a life threat to the strongest forces.

There are also dozens of suns, which can even pose a certain threat to the true God.

The largest sun among them was so difficult that even Chen Li felt a little troubled.

Of course, the previous God of Light did not possess such strength.

Although this has not yet reached the level of a middle-level true god, it is considered very good among the lower-level true gods.

Even most of the True Gods of Blue Star need a long period of accumulation to reach this level.

But now the God of Light has the blessing of the world's will, has refined his own artifact, and directly burned his own divine power.

It's no surprise that he can display such strength.

Faced with this powerful attack, Chen Li did not underestimate it at all.

[Ring of Time, Space and Destiny] appeared in his hand, and the power of the triple rules erupted instantly.

It swept across the entire Glorious Realm and even had a certain impact on the void outside the Glorious Realm.

As each sun got closer to Chen Li, it was enveloped by the power of the three rules, becoming gradually dimmer, or even extinguished directly.

The hundreds of small suns were the first to go out, followed by the dozens of medium-sized suns.

Before those medium-sized suns went out, they were about to touch the space where Chen Li was.

Finally, there is the only large sun. Even the simultaneous action of the three rules cannot extinguish it directly.

The large sun broke through the obstacles of the triple rule power. Although it became much dimmer, it still reached the space where Chen Li was.

Suibian continued to fall towards Chen Li at a speed equal to the speed of light, trying to completely cover him.

But as the large sun gets closer and closer to Chen Li.

The huge sun, which was originally larger than some small planes, was becoming smaller and smaller visibly to the naked eye.

When this large sun actually arrived in front of Chen Li, it was even larger than some small planes.

It had even turned into a fireball the size of an ordinary person's fist, and was directly held in Chen Li's hand.

With a slight force of his fingers, Chen Li crushed the entire fireball.

The large sun, which originally emitted endless light and heat, completely dissipated into the void after emitting the last ray of afterglow.

"Not just time, but also space, and even the power of the triple rules of fate?"

"And that divine weapon actually contains the power of three levels of rules. The civilization of your extraterritorial gods is truly unimaginable in its depth."

There is generally no such thing as a supreme priesthood in the Endless Void.

But it is undeniable that even the indigenous gods of the endless void, if the priesthood they condense is the supreme priesthood such as time, or the high priesthood such as the sky.

Compared to other gods, they are indeed more powerful.

In the entire T09-3054 Crystal Wall System, there are also true gods who control the rules of time.

Including space and destiny, these rules must be controlled by corresponding true gods.

Therefore, before this, the God of Light was not too surprised about the time rules that Chen Li controlled.

But the God of Light has never seen a true God who masters the three major rules of time, space, and destiny.

I have never even heard of it. Even the Lord of the Gods, His Majesty the God King, who is like a god among gods, is not so outrageous.

In comparison, the artifact containing the power of triple rules seemed much more normal.

The God of Light had also learned about the information about the gods of Blue Star before.

Although He didn't know much, there was one thing He was certain of.

Those gods from outside the domain, regardless of their strength, at least have a semi-artifact or real artifact that is very suitable for them.

This is also very incredible in the eyes of many indigenous gods of the T09-3054 Crystal Wall System.

Most of the indigenous gods, even those at the true god level, only have a semi-artifact that is very suitable for them.

As for the real divine weapon, it is the foundation that only a small number of true gods can possess.

But among those extraterritorial gods, it is standard for everyone to have a semi-artifact that suits them very well.

Those gods at the true god level each have a divine weapon that suits them very well.

The God of Light forged a divine weapon that was very suitable for him at the cost of the collapse of his own kingdom and with the blessing of the world's will.

However, these extraterritorial gods can maximize the configuration in this regard without paying any price.

The gap between the two sides can be seen directly from this point.

Chen Li held the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny] in his hand and looked at the God of Light opposite him with undisguised admiration in his eyes.

"I have to admit that many of your actions were beyond my expectations. You are a very outstanding deity."

"If conditions permit, I wouldn't mind accepting you as my subordinate god, or even giving you a higher status and a more glorious future."

"But unfortunately, you are blocking our way and must be removed."

"As our opponent, you didn't agree to our terms. I must make you return to nothingness completely."

"But now I feel that this is a bit of a shame, so I made a new decision."

"Even if you don't agree to our conditions, I will still send you into reincarnation with my own hands."

The God of Light must be eliminated, this is an unchangeable fact.

Even if it is just a slight modification of the rules, it means that this primary realm will no longer belong to this crystal wall system.

Not to mention that the entire crystal wall system will sooner or later be incorporated into the rules of Blue Star.

The new rules that will be formed after that will also give birth to new gods, but there will no longer be a place for these old gods.

If you don't manually clear these rule-based gods, it will only lead to more troublesome situations later.

This includes sending the other party into reincarnation, and it is impossible to allow him to retain any memory or background for reincarnation.

If it were possible to carry memories with him during reincarnation, the God of Light would not have been so angry before.

What is capable of reincarnation is only a trace of His soul essence.

The new personality formed after reincarnation will not have any memories before being the God of Light, and is basically another independent individual.

"By the way, are you a born god or a made god?"

Facing Chen Li's question, the God of Glory did not refuse to answer: "Acquired God."

"In the beginning, I was just an ordinary woman who couldn't stand the oppression of the church and rose up in resistance."

"After that, our influence grew, and I formed my own church, hoping to provide shelter for other oppressed people."

"Then I came to the end of my life and should have been buried in the normal way."

"However, many church leaders preserved my body and enshrined it as a holy relic of the church."

"My soul was never at peace because of this. I don't know how much time passed before I finally woke up again in my own body."

"I regard it as my second life. After that, I was no longer an ordinary human being, but a kind of god born from the afterlife."

The God of Light spoke in a calm tone, as if he was just having a normal conversation with his friend.

"So you're also a god transformed from a human. I thought you were a god born to follow the rules. Otherwise, how could you be so ruthless to your believers?"

Zheng Jie held the artifact box in his hand, and a large number of semi-artifacts flew out of the artifact box and attacked the God of Light.

Faced with Zheng Jie's teasing, the God of Light remained silent, and just kept unleashing the power of rules to dissolve his and Chen Li's attacks.

"Okay, we've talked enough, it's time to get going..."

The power of the triple rules broke through the defense of the God of Light and enveloped him. His consciousness was soon completely engulfed and fell into endless darkness.

At this point, the God of Light completely fell.
