"As for their lives before death, they were all remarkable figures." Realm Master Fu Sang seed to fall into reminiscence: "These old guys were once the first batch of believers of the exalted twelve Main Gods, also the strongest among them. During the Rebellion War, these believers beca the sharpest blades in the hands of the Main Gods, reaping countless lives of the rebellious in the lower realm. To confront these powerful believers, the rebels from the lower realm devised a trap. The strong believers didn’t care about the danger of this trap; in the face of absolute power, everything seed futile. But this ti, they were wrong. The trap succeeded in entrapping the most powerful believers under the Main Gods in the Abyssal Dragon Cavern. The believers prayed to their faith’s Main Gods, seeking their response and protection to escape the prison of life and death. Unfortunately, those exalted Main Gods refused to respond to their believers, rcilessly abandoning them in the Abyssal Dragon Cavern. As a result, these believers died, despairingly. Their souls arrived at the Sea of Death. Initially, not all believers could erge from the Sea of Death and be reborn in the Hanqiu Mountain Realm. However, unexpectedly, the God of Death intervened, rescuing their souls from the Sea of Death and helping them to be reborn on this land of the dead. Thus, these old things retain all the hatred from their previous lives, but they owe a great debt to the God of Death for this act. Therefore, they are willing to unconditionally assist you in accomplishing one thing, as a repaynt of the kindness the God of Death once showed by giving them new life."
"Is the grace of rebirth repaid by just one deed?" The Netherworld God spoke indifferently, suppressing doubts about her own identity as the God of Death. The Netherworld God was not in a hurry; she would ask one question at a ti.
"Of course not. If you were the true God of Death, they would surely follow you, becoming the sharpest blade in your hands. But unfortunately, you have only mastered half of the Power of Laws of the God of Death. Even if you devour the heart I gave you, the power you could gather would still only be half. So, strictly speaking, you are not yet the God of Death. These old ones can refuse to provide you any assistance, but the fact that they are willing to accept one request from you is already quite generous."
Hearing Realm Master Fu Sang’s reply, the Netherworld God nodded, understanding: "So, the forr twelve Main Gods of the Heavenly Realm were determined by the Laws they mastered, rather than personal attributes?"
"That I do not know. From the inception of the Heavenly Continent, the twelve Main Gods had never perished, not until that Rebellion War."
In that grand world war of the Primordial Era, the records in each world differed. To the Nine Domains, they deny the heavens, and to the beings of the Heavenly Realm, it was a rebellion. Thus, from the words of Realm Master Fu Sang, it could be judged that this guy must have been a person of the Heavenly Realm in life, and a very loyal one at that.
Realm Master Fu Sang continued: "The twelve Main Gods fell for the first ti, and the Laws crumbled along with them. Therefore, the inheritance of the Main God’s position can only be judged by the complete condensation of the Laws. For us in the Hanqiu Mountain Realm, if you can condense a complete Death Law, then you would be the exalted God of Death of the forr Heavenly Continent, the Dominator of our Hanqiu Mountain Realm."
The Netherworld God nodded, then felt a slight movent in her heart: "Tell about the twelve Main Gods of the Heavenly Continent, as I have yet to learn about a few of them."
"Of course." Realm Master Fu Sang nodded, listing them one by one: "These twelve Main Gods each mastered one of the twelve pinnacle Laws, arranged in order of the strength of their Laws as twelve ranks of Main Gods. The first rank Main God mastered the Space Law, known as the God of Space. The second rank Main God is the God of Death. The third rank is Ti, the God of Ti. The fourth is Life, the God of Life. The fifth rank is War, the God of War. The sixth rank is Elents, the God of Elents. The seventh rank is Light, the God of Light. The eighth rank is Darkness, the God of Darkness. The ninth rank is Soul, the Soul God. The tenth rank is Wisdom, the God of Wisdom. The eleventh rank is Extre Path, the God of Extre Path. The twelfth rank is Slting, the God of Slting."
"Extre Path? Slting?" For the first ten Main Gods, from their nas, the Netherworld God could instantly think of the Laws they mastered, but she was perplexed by Extre Path and Slting, prompting her to inquire.
Realm Master Fu Sang also noticed the Netherworld God’s confusion, thus he explained: "Extre Path is indeed difficult to understand. You can look at it as the extre, the limit of mastery over a Law."
"What is the source of power when he unleashes it?" On the path of extres, what does one use to fight? The Netherworld God grew interested.
"Well..." Realm Master Fu Sang organized his thoughts. To be honest, after thousands of years, it was his first ti speaking so much at once, and his mind felt a bit oxygen-deprived: "Hmm... the God of Extre Path is indeed quite mysterious. The Power of Laws he masters is very peculiar. Simply put, if he fights the Soul God, his Laws would completely transform into Soul Law, possessing exactly the sa Law power as the Soul God during combat. If he fights the God of Ti, he can completely replicate the God of Ti’s Law, being equally matched with the God of Ti. So, Extre Path can also be considered the path of replication, replicating an opponent’s identical Path of Law."
Hearing this explanation, the Netherworld God widened her eyes: "Isn’t this invincible?"
"Invincible?" Realm Master Fu Sang shook his head slightly: "If it were invincible, why would it be ranked eleventh? Although he can replicate others’ Paths, he is always evenly matched; he would not lose to anyone, but he can hardly win against anyone. The God of Extre Path in the eleventh sequence had the smallest territory among all Main Gods, with as few believers as the God of Ti, making him the least regarded existence in the vast Heavenly Realm."
Indeed, being evenly matched with everyone, in other words, ans not being able to defeat anyone. The reason the God of Slting ranks behind is due to being a God of Laws related to forging and alchemy, with limited combat prowess; otherwise, the God of Extre Path would certainly be at the bottom amongst the twelve Main Gods.
"How many of these forr twelve Main Gods of the Heavenly Realm still live?" This critical question lingered. The Netherworld God certainly didn’t believe all the Main Gods were dead; her close friend was the God of Ti. These twelve Main Gods were powerfully omnipotent, unlikely to perish entirely. Since the ninth sequence Soul God still lived, not many Main Gods could have died in that war on the forr Heavenly Continent.
This judgnt lingered in the Netherworld God’s mind while she awaited Realm Master Fu Sang’s answer.
For this question, Realm Master Fu Sang sank into silence once more before speaking long after: "The God of Death must have died in battle; otherwise, his Law wouldn’t have shattered, leaving you with half mastery. Besides the God of Death, the first sequence’s God of Space also surely perished; he was besieged and killed under the eyes of a million God Lord Level powerhouses during the Rebellion in the lower realm. Escape was impossible. The God of Life must also be dead because she was killed by the God of Death. Apart from these three, I do not know about the others’ lives or deaths. Most may still live, severely injured, hidden, and yet to reappear in the world."
"You said the God of Death killed the God of Life? Why?"
"Because the God of Death assisted the rebels from the lower realm, striking at the crucial mont, killing the God of Life from behind, and completely cutting off the Heavenly Realm’s vitality. The balance between life and death on the Heavenly Continent was shattered; the God of Death faced no limitations from life, challenging the God of Space, but was ultimately outmatched and slain on the spot. It was precisely on account of killing the God of Death that the God of Space expended a huge amount of Divine Power, which provided those rebels from the lower realm the chance to kill the God of Space."
Upon hearing these accounts, the Netherworld God finally gained a true impression of the forr Heavenly War, perceiving the genuine cause for the downfall of the Heavenly Continent possibly lay not in the assault from the Four Realms, but in the internal conflicts among the twelve Main Gods of the Heavenly Continent themselves.
