Chapter 612: Chapter 548: The Mystery of Recasting
Reforging Church had established a magnificent Holy City within the Lorne Empire, and at the very heart of this city was a place called “Iron Heart Sanctuary,” a pinnacle of technological innovation and religious faith.
Iron Heart Sanctuary was surrounded by towering steam towers and huge gear sculptures, resembling a vast chanical labyrinth. The massive stone base supported intricate tal structures, each detail revealing a reverence for steam and precision machinery.
Along the streets, steam streetlights cast a soft glow, illuminating the path for pedestrians. Inside the temple, the towering steam altar held the statue of the God of Reforging, made from delicate chanical parts, radiating the light of wisdom.
At that mont, many followers of the Reforging Church were worshiping in the sanctuary, thanking the God of Reforging for bringing technological revolution to the world of Claud.
Just then, a massive teorite from the far reaches of outer space smashed down.
The teorite, massive and covered with cosmic dust and ice crystals, began lting from the heat generated by atmospheric friction, flashing lights of red, orange, and yellow. It resembled a burning fireball, illuminating everything around it.
...
Its trajectory was not straight, but had an elusive arc. It seed as if so force had guided it to this specific mont and location to descend upon the earth.
As the teorite drew closer to the ground, the air began to vibrate intensely, rumbling loudly, causing the Reforging Church followers on the ground to panic and feel the shock from beyond the earth.
The enormous impact brought destruction, and in an instant, several streets were obliterated!
It was the Power of Consecution at the Seventh Tier, “Giant teor,” combined with various allies, that caused the massive impact, instantly devastating Iron Heart Sanctuary and resulting in heavy casualties.
The Fischer family and mbers of the Dawn Church, tens of thousands of Extraordinary Exponents, stord out and directly attacked the Holy City of the Reforging Church.
After the surprise attack began, they killed any follower who wore the garb or emblem of the Reforging Church without rcy, and the battle was largely one-sided.
“Damn it!”
The Chief of the Reforging Church and two Cardinals imdiately rushed out.
However, they were quickly surrounded by four mbers of the Fischer family.
Irene, Lucius, Byrne had already reached the Eighth Tier, while Chris had reached the Ninth Tier.
Above in the sky, as the “Soul Master,” his re gaze stunned everyone from the Reforging Church, striking terror into their hearts.
The heart of the Chief of the Reforging Church sank.
It was over!
—
The surprise attack ended quickly.
The only way for the Reforging Church to resist the Dawn Church during this period was to conduct rituals to summon the projection of the God of Reforging. However, the sacrifice required ti, and they could not prepare everything in ti to face the surprise attack from the Dawn Church.
A significant number of the Reforging Church’s higher-ranking officials were wiped out, and a vast number of followers were slaughtered. Even other areas with mbers of the Reforging Church could not cause much trouble.
The Fischer family seized all the books in the Holy City of the Reforging Church and imdiately started searching for records about the God of Reforging.
But they found nothing.
Finally, Chris extracted information about the God of Reforging from the soul of the Chief of the Reforging Church, equivalent to their Pope.
“So that’s it.”
After the soul manipulated by Chris silently spoke the secret of the God of Reforging, everyone who heard it was stunned.
The God of Reforging was still a masterpiece of the native gods of the world of Claud.
Originally, thousands of years ago, the gods had sold off the world of Claud to the otherworldly god “Chaos Constellation” to beco gods themselves. They rejoiced at becoming gods but soon felt imnse fear.
Because, achieving divinity only renders an immortal being supposedly indestructible within specific limitations.
Apart from the most powerful extraterrestrial gods who have transcended, no matter how mighty the divine beings are, their so-called immortality simply allows them to withstand ti and ordinary death.
They can still be annihilated.
Although they could exist as divine beings for ten thousand years, what would happen when the day of destruction arrived after ten thousand years?
They had betrayed everything in Claud World to the Chaos Constellation, and as native divinities, they were actually part of that covenant.
To avoid the dreadful outco after ten thousand years, the native gods of Claud decided to find a way to preserve themselves… It was impossible to snatch Claud back from the hands of the Chaos Constellation, but they could seize opportunities to take valuable entities from this world.
Thus, for this purpose, they combined their divine power to create the God of Reforging!
Indeed.
Karl realized that the initial setting and effect of the God of Reforging were not intended to cause the world’s collapse to be owned by the Chaos Constellation but to reconstruct Claud World and a substitute for the gods using existing matter and part of the souls.
Simply put, the gods planned to use their own souls and everyone else’s to create a fake Claud World and offer it as a sacrifice to the Chaos Constellation.
Karl understood this to be a grand strategy of deception.
However, the final result was far from ideal, as the outcos of the first cycle showed that the power of the Chaos Constellation still manipulated the native gods of Claud and the God of Reforging, eventually usurping the entire world.
Everything seed like a destiny set by the Chaos Constellation.
“The so-called ‘destiny’ refers to that ten-thousand-year-old pact, doesn’t it?”
“Perhaps even if the Reforging Church is handled and the God of Reforging cannot be summoned, the Chaos Constellation would still erge.”
Karl sank into deep thought.
In truth, besides the conundrum of gods, the God of Reforging, and the Chaos Constellation, the most important puzzle he had yet to solve remained.
That was… who exactly had sealed him? Was it really those otherworldly gods?
He felt sothing was amiss, especially since during the process of breaking the seal, Karl witnessed nurous past lives and a vast array of mories, including his original self called “Shen Ling.”
Ti again trickled by, and once more, it reached the point where the world should have been destroyed; the Fischer family’s founding four had even reached the 10th Rank of the God Pantheon stairway!
But this ti, the God of Reforging could no longer descend, the Dawn Church had successfully taken control over the whole world, and faith in the God of Reforging had been completely erased, with no one left to conduct the ritual.
However…
Since ancient tis, the great glaciers that existed began lting at an unprecedented pace. As the glaciers lted, an ancient and mighty force gradually awakened, and a gigantic giant slowly opened its eyes from its icy slumber. Its massive body was like a walking nation, each step it took shook the earth and spurred endless tsunamis.
The Quasi-God “Source of Magical Beasts” was dismbered by the gods ten thousand years ago and buried in parts across the great glacier.
anwhile, at the other end of the world, Hecate quietly opened her eyes, her eyes sparkling with the light of stars, her will sweeping across the continent like a storm.
Her soul had been possessed by the legendary Witch of Demise.
Although the Witch of Demise had a small portion of the power of the End, Hecate had already fallen under the control of the Chaos Constellation.
And within this twofold catastrophe, a more sinister phenonon began spreading globally.
Spirit Realm Parasites, these creatures that previously existed only in another dinsion, broke through the boundaries of space due to an unknown power, massively invading the real world. They drained life force, twisted reality, and turned everything into their breeding ground.
The entire world was shrouded in an apocalyptic gloom, society appearing so insignificant and powerless in the face of disaster, the lights of civilization flickering in the darkness, possibly extinguishing at any mont.
Just as Karl had anticipated, even though the Reforging Church was dealt with early, the apocalypse still erupted!
