The image that appeared before Daniel was painted in the style of an oil painting, with stark contrasts in colors that dominated the canvas.
Although the faces in the painting were not clearly depicted, Daniel could still discern what the image was trying to convey.
As he watched the scene of collapse unfold, Daniel could feel the helplessness even Mist herself was experiencing.
So...
Even after becoming a god, she still felt powerless?
At that mont, the content of the letter shifted once again.
This ti, however, the image did not depict any of the gods Daniel was familiar with, but rather, a god from Backworld, completely covered in filth.
It was clear—this was an inner god!
Daniel furrowed his brow as he understood the aning behind the painting.
To put it simply, this painting seed to imply that only by becoming a god of Backworld could all problems be solved.
Daniel sank deep into thought.
Faer’s obsession with elents had once driven him to dedicate his life to unraveling the mysteries of the elents.
Therefore, he would never pass up the opportunity to research the inner gods.
He might even desire to devour the inner god, but there was a crucial difference between him and Aurelia.
While Aurelia’s pursuit might be ultimate power, Faer’s goal was the ultimate secret of the elents.
Perhaps, in the inner god, he had discovered sothing that led him to desire to devour it, which was why he ended up on the sa path as Aurelia.
Daniel wasn’t surprised by Faer’s choice.
After all, if Faer weren’t obsessed with research, he wouldn’t have embarked on this path in the first place.
It had to be said that Mist had transmitted a wealth of valuable information to him this ti.
It was almost as if she had shared every secret that Daniel could possibly know.
Faced with the current situation, Daniel could only sigh softly.
"So at least for now, my decision was the right one."
When he helped Mist during his acquisition of the Desire Abyss, it was because of that act that he was now receiving so much valuable intelligence.
At least now, Daniel had so understanding of Backworld, no longer completely clueless as he had been before.
Closing his eyes, Daniel’s mind raced as he processed the information he had just received.
He also used ntal Deduction to try and discern the path ahead from all this information.
According to the intelligence Mist had provided, Aurelia’s desire to devour the inner god had co at an enormous cost.
She couldn’t rely on her own strength alone; she also needed the power of the Land of Origin.
Aurelia’s plan was to first destroy all the living beings in the Land of Origin, then use the Land of Origin’s power to suppress the inner god she had consud.
Then, she would use the Gold and Silver Domain to control the entire Land of Origin, bringing all the dead creatures back to life.
At that point, Aurelia would beco the true master of the Land of Origin.
The problem was that now the Land of Origin had already been absorbed by Daniel.
But no matter what, Daniel now knew the original intentions of Aurelia.
It seed that even for a god, completely devouring the inner god was still an unrealistic task.
It was likely that Aurelia had already realized how difficult this was.
As for Faer, Daniel suspected that his mind was fully occupied with his research into the elents.
Even as a god, Faer still couldn’t uncover all the secrets of the elents.
The road to knowledge never ended, and even godhood was not the final destination.
Thus, Faer likely sought to break through the barriers and reach a higher level, using any ans necessary.
Perhaps by reaching the level of the inner god, he could gain a deeper understanding of the elents, or even glimpse the ultimate truth.
The allure of the ultimate secrets of the elents was, of course, irresistible to Faer.
That’s why he chose to ally with Aurelia—it was an inevitable conclusion.
Daniel scratched his head and began to analyze Mist’s actions once again.
Mist had concealed Luke’s mories, which was likely related to her domain.
No matter what had happened to her, it only worked to her advantage.
This was sothing almost at the level of rules, which Mist could not change.
However, despite this, Luke, the Luck Goddess, had obtained an inner god, which was probably the weakest of all the inner gods.
Even so, Luke had still birthed her own inner god.
Fortunately, with her domain and the help of other gods, she was able to suppress the inner god within her for the ti being.
Daniel summarized all the information he had gathered up to this point.
After understanding the current situation, he couldn’t help but sigh deeply.
To deal with the inner god, one had to beco an inner god.
But if one beca an inner god, they would be overtaken by the "parasite," and their consciousness would be destroyed.
So from a logical standpoint, this was a complete deadlock!
To beco the enemy, one must beco the enemy.
Is this so kind of joke?!
Daniel sighed once more and then shifted his focus back to the Backworld Forbidden Lands.
[Currently, there are 10 Forbidden Lands-level ruins in Backworld.]
[Of these, I have already investigated 7 of them for you. The remaining 3 Forbidden Lands are quite special, and even I cannot delve deeply into them.]
[Regarding the formation of these Forbidden Lands-level ruins, I have not been able to uncover any clues.]
[I suspect that they were created by powerful ancient beings or naturally ford by so supre will.]
[The Forbidden Land currently under Laeve’s control is a place of certain death.]
[To enter this Forbidden Land, one must experience a complete death—both the body and soul must perish.]
[If you enter this Forbidden Land while still alive, you will be subjected to continuous, severe damage. Unless you are sure you can withstand it, do not enter lightly.]
[Lastly, Laeve once ventured into it, hoping to find a way to counter the inner god. However, she returned gravely wounded, having gained nothing.]
...
Upon seeing the description of the "certain death" Forbidden Land,
Daniel’s body flickered, and he imdiately arrived at the entrance to this land.
Unlike most common teleportation portals, this one emitted an aura of death from the inside out.
Moreover, this aura of death was continuously eroding the outer world.
Daniel tried to probe the space behind the portal using his mind power.
However, the mont his mind power entered the portal, it was completely dissipated and vanished without a trace.
What is death?
This ti, Daniel seed to have gained a whole new understanding.
