Chapter 1435: Chapter 1392: The Well-Deserved God King
An ancient Deity fell from the sky, akin to the collapse of nurous mountains, yet before this Deity struck the Land of the Gods, it vanished into thin air.
“Quite the quick escape!” Muria said as he looked at the disappearing Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, lightly pressing down with his hand. With this gesture, Ten Thousand Realms Mountain, which was supposed to disappear with the departure of the Mountain Lord, was imdiately suppressed onto the Land of the Gods, becoming a new attraction of this Divine Kingdom.
And as the Mountain Lord made a run for it, Muria suddenly had his hands free and turned his gaze towards the Sea God, who seed poised to engulf everything with an Overwhelming Sea Tide, ready to make his move.
But in the next instant, this controller of the ocean’s might, a Divine Being of towering Divine Might, faded away like a bubble, startling Michaela, who was caught off guard by this sudden disappearance.
“Ah!”
Muria, at this ti, already knew what to do. The Sun embedded in the Luo Tian Mirror on his back burst forth with Radiant Light and heat. The montarily unstable Divine Kingdom, due to the old god’s downfall and the new god’s accession, instantly elevated its spatial defenses to an inconceivable degree.
Liji, the Lord of War and Storms, who was slightly slower to react and prepared to escape, seed bewildered.
“No, I, that…”
Regret filled Liji’s heart, unable to be expressed in words. He regretted not constantly monitoring the situation of the battlefield to make his escape and now was trapped within the Divine Kingdom. He loathed even more the unknown being who had kicked him into the conflict, forcing him to wage war and leading him into his current predicant.
“Your Majesty Muria, there has been a misunderstanding!”
Despite the torrent of emotions within, he found no opportunity to express them to the other Divine Beings. Not one of the three Divine Beings before him was inclined to listen to him.
“Oh? A misunderstanding? But you were the first to act, and just now you seed determined not to cease until you achieved your goal. Now that I’ve cornered you, it’s a misunderstanding?” Muria said, scrutinizing the dignified Divine Being before him in human form, while pondering a certain possibility.
“If I said I was forced to act, would you believe ?” The Lord of War and Storms offered a bitter smile.
“Heh.” Jiuli laughed coldly. This cold smile made Liji fu inside. The very being who had been subdued by Jiuli in battle was now daring to show such an attitude, hmph!
“Alright then, I’ll take your word for it, that you were forced to act. But it doesn’t seem like you were planning to stop anyti soon,” Muria remarked with a hint of amusent.
At this mont, his attitude was one of a cat playing with a mouse. And he possessed the necessary power. As ti passed, his bond with the Supre Divine Position of the Sun grew stronger and stronger.
In such circumstances, his might was ascending at a terrifying rate. This growth in power was exactly the reason he wished to beco a Deity.
“This…” The undeniable truth overpowered any rhetoric. The fact that he had just acted and battled with Jiuli was plainly evident. At this point, no matter how he tried to justify himself, his words sounded utterly feeble and pale.
“One last chance. Is there anything else you want to say? If not, prepare to face the consequences you deserve.”
Muria smiled, his palm raising to reveal a point of Crimson Gold Color light, which quickly expanded into a small, Radiant Fireball.
“I…”
The God of War and Storms gazed at the small fireball in Muria’s hand, appearing no different from those conjured by a common Mortal mage, yet filled with dread. Though it looked rely like a fireball, it was in essence a miniature sun. Getting hit by this toy, oh the agony!
“Do you still lack a Subordinate God?”
In just a mont, the Lord of War and Storms had considered much, ultimately uttering words that even surprised Muria.
“…”
Thus, the previously tense atmosphere of the pure heavens fell into a sudden silence. The Lord of War and Storms had uttered words that shocked Muria, his partner, and his student. They exchanged glances to confirm they were not hallucinating.
“Lacking.”
Realizing the situation was far better than imagined, Muria, without hesitation, uttered a single word.
Securing a Powerful Divine Force level Divine Being, willing to beco a Subordinate God, was an opportunity one couldn’t even find. Why reject it? The gains from subduing this Deity far exceeded those of slaying him.
Besides, the cost associated with killing a Deity of such caliber was incalculable, as no one could predict the extent of what such a Deity might conceal.
In comparison, the cost paid to execute the Solar Deity was trivial, which could indeed be considered the World’s Favor.
…
“You all never should have run. If everyone had stayed and struck together, you could have completely prevented this disaster. Now, it’s too late.”
Amidst the myriad Divine Light, within a Temporary Semi-Plane no longer graced by the temporary Sun, the Mountain Lord reerged. At this ti, there was no trace of his previous disarray before Muria, only his usual profound authority.
“Mountain Lord, are you making a joke? The other side has three Powerful Divine Forces, and His Majesty Mureya wields both the Supre Divine Positions of death and the Sun. Is his combat power truly just the equivalent of two Powerful Divine Forces?”
“Could he really stand against three of them?”
“Who knows? Such a being has never appeared before, now we can only guess.”
“After the Sun Deity fell, it was already too late, we couldn’t possibly defeat Him in His own Divine Kingdom, and once mired in a war of attrition, His Majesty Mureya would only grow stronger, ultimately forcing us to retreat in a futile and disheveled state.”
“That’s just your guess, Lord of Paleness, how do you know without trying? You retreated just on a hunch. For today’s disastrous outco, you should bear at least half the bla.”
The Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains glared at the Lord of Paleness, hating him through gritted teeth for his exceptional ability to flee. Had it not been for Him, He wouldn’t have had to show such an embarrassing face before Muria.
“Don’t think of shirking responsibility, Mountain Lord. Among those present, your relationship with His Majesty Mureya is closest, yet you had no clue about his plan.
Ha, can we therefore infer that you’ve reached so unspeakable secret pact with His Majesty and now, you’re just putting on a show, gathering intelligence for Him?”
A Powerful Divine Force questioned the stance of the Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, suspecting this seemingly honest and simple fellow had long betrayed Them and was now rely acting.
“What are you blabbering about, I betray you all? Serve Mureya? You’re letting your imagination run wild. What gain would I have, huh?”
“Who knows? For instance, promising one of us a divine title in exchange, elevating you to a great being who controls two, or maybe even three Supre Divine Positions.”
“Enough, let’s not engage in baseless talk that lacks any logic. Other than making our relations worse, it does no good; let’s discuss sothing useful!”
A Deity stood up to end this baseless saring or, one could say, accusation.
They were all old beings who had lived for eons, seldom swayed by impulse in any matter. Their only flaw was that each being held their own opinions and concepts.
Without a decisive leader, a gathering of such beings has little chance of accomplishing anything.
“What shall we discuss? How to face His Majesty Mureya, perhaps? Simple, avoid him when possible, and if that’s not possible, just surrender.”
Casually comnting, the Sky Deity who had not really participated in battle, more like a re spectator, spoke languidly.
Influenced by his divine title, He lacked any ambitions for supremacy, simply seeking undisturbed existence, remaining profoundly indifferent to all things.
“Do you really think surrendering will let you escape? That’s far too naive. It’s quite clear Mureya won’t be satisfied, I can assure you He won’t settle for controlling two Supre Divine Positions, He will strive for more.”
“What a joke, at this stage, how can He possibly control more?”
“How can it not be possible? Don’t forget He’s very likely the leader chosen by the world; any and all possibilities could occur with Him. Even those that defy common sense are no exception.”
The Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, having had his years of hidden strengths stripped away, spoke with so bitterness. His open secret battled and disgraceful flight from Mureya was already public.
But, because Mureya indeed was strong, the other beings were sowhat considerate of His face, so they didn’t bring it up.
However, not speaking of it didn’t an it didn’t happen; thus, what He had to do was to salvage His own face as much as possible.
And as a defeated being, what He ought to do was to inflate the strength of the existence that defeated Him, to exaggerate the threat He posed; only then would He appear less of a failure.
“Oh? Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, how did you co to such a conclusion?” A Deity cast an intrigued glance at the Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains, very interested in such an assertion.
“He admitted it Himself.”
“I can vouch for it.” A Deity with the Tide at his back spoke up, supporting the Lord of Ten Thousand Mountains. His stance aligned with that of the Mountain Lord to a degree.
Like a fellow escapee, He had to exaggerate the threat posed by Mureya; otherwise, it would be a real loss of face.
“Hah, you two can’t be serious. You believe whatever He says? I could claim I’m the God King; would you believe ?”
“You proclaiming yourself as the God King naturally holds no credibility, but His Majesty Mureya is different. He already controls two Supre Divine Positions; no one can deny His potential to control a third.”
“At this rate, a God King rightful in na and deed may really erge.”
“So, when do we submit?”
“What a joke? A God King of unknown origin? Ha, I don’t approve.”
“Disapprove? Do you wish to fall?”
“I stand in the Land of the Gods, an invincible position; no one will force
to bow.”
“But, the Sun Deity has already fallen!”
