Gods: Civilization Cultivation, Infinite War

Chapter 90: The Long River of Time and Fate, Echoes of Fate
Because the position of the Grand Elder had been vacant for a long time, the voices within the Holy Mountain had never been truly unified.

Fighting openly and secretly is their norm. Even when facing many foreign gods before, there are different attitudes within the Holy Mountain.

But after the arrival of the Kingdom of Dawn, the Holy Mountain showed unprecedented enthusiasm.

Under the leadership of the Holy Mountain, many indigenous forces in the entire plane also cooperated quite well, allowing the Kingdom of Dawn to carry out various tasks in this plane very smoothly.

This kind of complete plane has a higher level of civilization itself and does not need to go through a long period of various assistance like those half-planes before gradually gaining benefits.

In addition, with the leadership of the Holy Mountain, in just a few years, Chen Li's belief completed the most basic dissemination in the entire plane, and replaced the previous more primitive belief in destiny on a large scale.

Since Chen Li himself possessed the priesthood of destiny, his conversion did not affect the interests of the indigenous forces of this plane. This was one of the reasons why his belief could be promoted so smoothly.

In addition, the various tasks of the Kingdom of Dawn have also brought many new changes to the world.

One of the most obvious changes is naturally the large number of space teleportation devices built by the Kingdom of Dawn in this world.

This connected the T09-CY-323627 plane and the hundreds of worlds ruled by the Kingdom of Dawn, which in a disguised way opened up their trade routes.

From then on, they no longer traded with the armies of the followers of those extraterritorial gods, but with the Kingdom of Dawn and all the worlds under its rule.

This kind of treasure of destiny system is of great benefit to the development of many worlds.

However, in terms of price, considering that the resources in most worlds are not abundant, after negotiations between the top leaders of the Kingdom of Dawn and the Holy Mountain, the prices of these treasures were set within a lower range.

From a short-term perspective, the T09-CY-323627 plane suffered a lot of losses in this transaction.

The resources that the many worlds ruled by the Kingdom of Dawn can provide are not even as good as those provided by the armies of the followers of the extraterritorial gods.

However, the higher-ups of this plane are not short-sighted. As extraordinary beings in the destiny system, they can more clearly see the infinite potential of the civilization of the Kingdom of Dawn.

Those hundreds of worlds, including their own, are actually part of the Kingdom of Dawn.

Just earning fewer resources can help the entire Kingdom of Dawn develop better, and at the same time improve one's status in all the worlds.

From a long-term perspective, this is definitely a business that is sure to make money.

Moreover, the emergence of the space teleportation device not only opened up the trade route of the T09-CY-323627 plane.

What’s more crucial is that in addition to the Kingdom of Dawn sending personnel to help their development, other worlds have also sent a lot of personnel.

They are all talents from different fields in many worlds. Their main purpose of coming to this world is to communicate with each other and promote the development of their respective fields.

In this process, the T09-CY-323627 plane can also gain many benefits.

Although their level of civilization is relatively high, in terms of average level, it may not be as good as any ordinary demiplane under the rule of the Kingdom of Dawn. They only have advantages in some cutting-edge technologies.

When talents from different fields in many worlds come to this plane, they will also drive better development in many fields of the entire plane, which is of great benefit to them.

There are both immediate benefits and long-term interests. This is the main reason why the Holy Mountain leaders and other forces are willing to accept this kind of deal.

Just as the T09-CY-323627 plane was conducting friendly exchanges with other planes and quickly integrating into the rule of the Kingdom of Dawn, Chen Li also gained a lot.

The destiny priesthood he condensed within himself enabled him to understand the source of the peculiarity of this plane, which was a gift from a true god who condensed the destiny priesthood.

But as gods, it is not so easy to truly receive this gift.

The indigenous beliefs that can catalyze the treasures of the destiny system can only be regarded as the simplest and most inefficient way to utilize this gift.

If Chen Li wants to use this gift to improve his control over the priesthood of destiny, he must get in touch with the essence of this gift.

If he had only condensed one priesthood of destiny, it would be quite difficult for him to get in touch with that essence. It would be difficult to achieve it in one step, and it would require long years of study to have the possibility of success.

But in addition to the priesthood of fate, he also has two other supreme priesthoods, which makes the whole thing a lot simpler.

Somewhere in the T09-CY-323627 plane, Chen Li took out the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny]. With his full strength, this semi-artifact that perfectly matched him began to operate at high speed.

The long river of time and destiny suddenly appeared. Under the influence of the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny], the most essential rules of the entire place of origin were materialized.

At this moment, Chen Li's figure disappeared from the spot and stepped into the long river of time and fate.

He did not follow the flow of time and fate, but went upstream, step by step towards a certain node in the past.

With every step he took, the scene before his eyes would change drastically. That was the scene of this world in the past.

In this process, the long river of time and fate also rolled up waves.

If ordinary gods or natives of the place of origin encountered such waves, they would be swept into them if they were not careful and travel to a scene in the past or future.

This kind of time travel will cause oneself to be affected by the rules of time and fate, easily leading to loss of self-awareness and sinking into the corresponding fate node.

Or perhaps in order to avoid being affected by the waves, they passively affect the existence of these waves, resulting in signs of disorder in time and destiny at a certain node.

This behavior, which disrupts the long river of time and destiny, will also cause backlash against the rules, and the consequences are difficult to predict.

Only Chen Li, who has condensed the three supreme divine positions at the same time, can stroll leisurely in the long river of time and destiny.

With the blessing of the three supreme priesthoods, the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny] formed a stable cycle. Even if Chen Li went against the current in the long river of time and destiny, he could remain safe and sound.

In the process of going upstream, Chen Li did not affect the existence of any node.

The more you understand the existence of time and fate, the more you should respect them, even gods like Chen Li who hold relevant authority are no exception.

Now he can only rely on tricks to walk in the long river of time and fate.

If Chen Li wanted to interfere with these most basic rules, he felt that he had to wait until he became a true god. Before that, he should just be honest.

After an unknown amount of time, Chen Li finally stopped.

He has gone a long way upstream in the long river of time and fate.

At the beginning, he could still clearly feel the changes in the surrounding environment, but as time went on, the distance he covered with each step became larger and larger.

The traces of time could no longer be captured. Following the guidance of fate, when he found the corresponding node, the surrounding scene had undergone earth-shaking changes.

At that time, the T09-CY-323627 plane was just an ordinary plane, without any special features.

The plane natives living there were also quite different from the current people of destiny. Until the arrival of a certain foreign god, a demigod who embodied the priesthood of destiny.

Under the power of the demigod, the entire plane was quickly brought under its rule, and they all began to believe in this god of destiny.

In the years that followed, this god of destiny led the indigenous forces of this plane to conquer one world after another.

The entire plane is developing better and better, from an ordinary civilization limited to a small plane at the beginning, it has developed into a central world that rules countless planes.

Under the influence of the God of Destiny, the supernatural system of the entire plane is gradually moving towards the destiny system.

Extraordinary professions such as Fate Weaver, Fate Judge, and Fate Enlightener are well-known throughout the Land of Origin.

The God of Destiny also has extremely high prestige among the gods of Blue Star. Under his leadership, a stable alliance has been formed among the many gods of Blue Star.

As more and more worlds were conquered, the number of believers in this God of Destiny reached an extremely astonishing number.

In addition, he has a high level of mastery over the priesthood of destiny, so it is natural for him to become a true god in the place of origin.

From Chen Li's perspective, this god of destiny conquered many dimensions, spread his beliefs, and cultivated his own clan civilization.

Finally, after a long period of accumulation, the God of Destiny finally completed many preparations and was about to become a true God in the place of origin.

Even here, Chen Li still hasn't figured out where the source of this plane's peculiarity comes from.

According to his observation, this plane also had similar special features as it does now long ago.

The beliefs of the natives of those planes can catalyze the creation of many treasures of destiny systems.

But the nature of this peculiarity is different.

Long ago, the reason why the beliefs of the natives of those planes had such a special effect was not due to the influence of the plane, but from the influence of the God of Destiny.

In other words, the treasures of the destiny system are essentially an extension of the authority of the God of Destiny.

As long as the power of faith of the believers of the God of Destiny is there, it will have a similar effect.

But by now, the God of Destiny has long since left the place of origin, and the beliefs of the natives of this plane do not belong to that God of Destiny.

The reason why it can still catalyze the creation of many treasures of the destiny system is because the influence of this plane itself has little to do with the natives of that plane.

Such a change made Chen Li a little confused as to whether the God of Destiny had left any additional arrangements before leaving the place of origin.

At this point, the God of Destiny has become a true God and is about to leave the place of origin. Chen Li is also very alert and does not want to miss any details.

But at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

The God of Destiny, who was at a certain point in the past, turned his gaze to somewhere when he was about to leave the place of origin.

At this moment, the vision of both sides spanned endless years and converged in the long river of time and destiny.

"A Blue Star deity from the future? He also possesses the priesthood of destiny. No, not just the priesthood of destiny. That's quite interesting..."

As the God of Destiny finished speaking, the connection between the two parties was severed, and the other party's figure completely disappeared at this point.

At the same time, the long river of time and fate suddenly stirred up waves. Even with the [Ring of Time, Space and Fate], Chen Li could not maintain his stability.

There was no other way, Chen Li could only quickly leave the long river of time and fate.

"What happened just now?"

Chen Li was still frightened at this moment. When he was observing the past scenes, the other party suddenly broke away from the past track and recognized his identity, which scared him.

Fortunately, the other party did not have any malicious intentions, otherwise I would be in danger.

This also reminded Chen Li that even if he possessed the three supreme priesthoods, he could not interfere with the operation of these basic rules at will.

This time, I was just going upstream in the long river of time and fate, without taking any extra actions, but such changes occurred.

If we really interfere with the operation of those basic rules, it is hard to say what consequences will arise.

At this moment, Chen Li also took out the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny], and an expression of sudden enlightenment appeared on his face.

The three marks that originally existed deep in his soul were integrated into the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny] after he became a demigod.

But these three marks did not disappear completely, they just moved to a different place and continued to stay.

At this moment, in the [Ring of Time, Space and Destiny], the mark representing destiny has become much stronger.

These three marks are the foundation of the three major priesthoods condensed by Chen Li.

The mark of destiny became stronger, and Chen Li's control over the priesthood of destiny also increased accordingly.

Moreover, these three marks form a trinity for Chen Li.

When any mark grows, the other two marks will also be driven and improved accordingly, until the three marks return to a state of absolute balance.

In other words, as Chen Li improves his control over the priesthood of destiny, his control over the other two priesthoods will also continue to increase.

Before this, although Chen Li's strength surpassed that of most senior demigods, there was still a certain gap between him and the top demigods.

But this time, the gift from the God of Destiny brought Chen Li a great benefit.

After thoroughly digesting this time's gains, Chen Li's strength will officially reach the top demigod level.

The special origin of this plane is a gift from the God of Destiny, but this gift is not reserved exclusively for this world.

It was precisely because Chen Li had just had a look with the God of Destiny in the long river of time and fate that the other party left a special gift.

After a long period of changes, new intelligent life was born in this plane, and a relatively primitive belief in destiny was developed.

When Chen Li came to this plane, he discovered the special source of this plane. After taking over this plane, he went upstream in the long river of time and fate and met the God of Destiny.

All this is accidental, yet also inevitable, like the echo of fate.
