Godslayer: A random filename extension?

Of course, fragments of the Heavenly Court can also unleash laws of time similar to those of Fengdu.

In the past, one day in heaven was equivalent to one year on earth. This was merely to accelerate the Heavenly Court's collection of faith in the Three Realms, enhance the cultivation effects of the immortals, and slow down the consumption of energy in the Heavenly Realm.

Currently, the shattered Heavenly Court is actually operating in reverse, similar to Fengdu, where one day in the mortal realm is equivalent to one year in the Heavenly Court, only not as exaggerated.

Therefore, from the start of the banquet, although inside the Lingxiao Palace, the wedding guests enjoyed the dance music and the immortal feast, plus the time for initial digestion and advancement, it seemed that a long time had already been spent.

But outside the Lingxiao Palace, and even outside the Heavenly Gate in Cangnan City, only half an hour, or even just a few minutes, had actually passed.

Therefore, even though the Church of the Ancient Gods confirmed that all the targets had arrived and immediately began the ceremony to build the inter-divine bridge.

It was only now that the bridge connecting the Egyptian kingdom was opened.

It can only be said that Cangnan City is truly a place "blessed" by the gods.

The last divine war had barely ended when the Egyptian gods suddenly descended once again.

Moreover, they came with overwhelming force, outnumbering even the gods in the last divine war.

The Egyptian divine kingdom in this world is revered by Ra, the creator god, who is followed by nine high-ranking and powerful principal gods, twelve secondary gods, mortal gods, and numerous divine servants.

Even though the Egyptian kingdom was originally the weakest of the seven great kingdoms.

However, it also possesses a creator god, two god-king level deities, seven main god level deities, twelve secondary gods, more than fifty mortal gods, and hundreds of divine servants.

At this moment, their lineup, aided by the arrival of the Divine Bridge, was quite impressive.

Although Ra is the only creator god in the opposing god's country, he naturally dared not risk his life, and it is said that this Ra was badly hit by a nuclear bomb last time.

Furthermore, while they were probing and invading, they also needed to guard against attacks from other divine kingdoms, so he did not come.

After all, apart from the Great Xia, the other five great divine kingdoms are not a monolithic entity.

The reasons why other gods did not descend were similar: they were either still healing or needed to guard against other divine kingdoms taking advantage of their vulnerability.

So now, above Cangnan, beyond the Divine Bridge.

The Egyptian kingdom of Sun City deployed nearly half of its military force for this targeted strike.

Five of the Nine Pillar Gods were dispatched: one was a god-king level deity, and four were main god level deities.

The twelve lesser gods were accompanied by six of them, along with twenty mortal gods and a large number of attendants and servants, totaling about a hundred, to form a grand spectacle.

After all, according to the intelligence sent back by the Church of the Ancient Gods, half of the Great Xia's high-end combat force should be attending this wedding banquet.

Moreover, its strength is only at most equivalent to the ceiling of being able to barely resist a demigod or a short-term attack by a main god.

The Great Xia Dynasty only has five ceilings in total.

This lineup includes six lesser gods, not to mention four main gods and one god-king.

Even when fighting on foreign soil, on enemy territory, the Egyptian gods were not afraid at all.

Moreover, based on information from previous divine wars between the Great Divine Kingdom and the Great Xia, even if the gods of the Great Xia returned, their strength would be greatly diminished.

Even the Great Emperor of Fengdu, who should have been at the peak of the God-King level, actually joined forces with another original creator god of the Great Xia Dynasty to capture the Underworld King's clone within his own divine kingdom.

It is evident how weak the gods of Great Xia are now. Even if they return, what then? The weakness of almost two major realms cannot be recovered in a short time.

Even if the Great Xia territory and its people were well preserved, it would be the same.

We are all gods, and we all know this perfectly well...

In addition, what's that saying again?

The smaller the country, the more likely it is to be self-righteous, thinking it is very capable, and acting recklessly.

The Egyptian gods believed that Bactria's strength was now confirmed to be so weak, yet its resources were so abundant, making it the perfect time to launch a major offensive.

Especially now that the enemy's high-level combat forces are all gathered together, if we can take them down in one fell swoop or besiege them and attack their reinforcements.

Who knows, this might give them a chance to directly swallow up the Great Xia Divine Kingdom.

In that case, it wouldn't matter if Sun City was raided; at worst, we could just move the entire Sun City here and integrate it into the Great Xia territory.

His Egyptian kingdom could then become the most powerful and profound divine kingdom.

They completely failed to consider that, apart from the Great Xia Divine Kingdom and the Japanese Divine Kingdom, the other five divine kingdoms were in a state of constant fear and insecurity.

A single move can affect the whole situation; if the balance is broken carelessly, it will lead to a chaotic battle in the divine kingdom.

Taking advantage of the Great Xia's weakness to launch a full-scale invasion seems simple, but if anyone does it and fails, other divine kingdoms will be happy to see the two sides weaken each other.

But if successful, the victor will immediately become the target of public criticism.

After all, the foundation of a divine kingdom is its population and faith, followed by its land and resources.

In 1921, when the fog descended, the population of Great Xia, with only 3.9% of the Earth's land area, accounted for almost a quarter of the world's population.

(The author checked and found that in 1921, China's land area was more than 1300 million square kilometers, close to 1400 million square kilometers, accounting for 3.9 percent of the Earth's surface, instead of the current 960 million square kilometers, which accounts for only 2.8 percent of the Earth's surface.)

Moreover, after the fog descended, the population of other divine kingdoms decreased sharply, but the population of Great Xia remained almost intact. In addition, it absorbed and assimilated a large number of foreigners who fled to Great Xia when the fog spread.

Today, the combined population of the six great divine kingdoms is probably less than half that of the Great Xia Kingdom.

After all, the Great Xia of this world now has a population of 18 billion.

Such a vast territory and its inhabitants, untouched by the mist, naturally attracted the covetous eyes of the other five divine kingdoms.

However, the prettier the mushroom, the more poisonous it is.

If the beliefs of the people of Great Xia cannot be changed, and Great Xia is forcibly occupied, it will directly trigger a backlash from the national destiny accumulated by countless people of Great Xia.

Even for deities, a conflict of faith could have a fatal backlash on the nation's destiny.

Therefore, other divine kingdoms, even if all the gods of the Great Xia Dynasty are absent.

The invasion of the Great Xia can only be a slow erosion, to put it bluntly, a step-by-step cultural invasion. Once the people of the Great Xia no longer believe in the gods of the Great Xia, then they can easily take over the entire Great Xia pantheon.

But now the situation has changed, and no one expected that the gods of the Great Xia would suddenly return.

This is terrible news for the other divine kingdoms, meaning that the Great Xia Divine Kingdom, which already had the most complete foundation, may very well return to prosperity.

When that time comes, other divine kingdoms and even gods will inevitably lose as they are eroded and weakened by the misty region. They will either have to surrender to the Great Xia Divine Kingdom or wait to die.

This is an absolutely unacceptable problem for a smaller divine kingdom like the Egyptian pantheon, and one that urgently needs to be addressed.

As gods, their pride, or rather arrogance, naturally makes it impossible for them to choose the option of submission.

Instead, they wanted to take a risk and directly invade the Great Xia Dynasty, pollute its national destiny, or later forcefully use hypnosis to rewrite the cognition of all the people of the Great Xia Dynasty.

As long as these things are done before the other divine kingdoms hesitate and react, that will be fine.

With the Great Xia as their base, what would the Egyptian gods have to fear from a joint attack by other divine kingdoms?

Especially now, when taking action still offers a glimmer of hope, while hesitation is tantamount to slow suicide.

Whether we advance or retreat, the likely outcome is certain death.

The Egyptian kingdom would certainly be the first to make a move.

As for the option of submission.

As the saying goes, although the reasons vary, gods are all accustomed to preferring death to surrender.
