"Using something so precious on idiots is a colossal waste..." The whale’s lazy voice broke the morbid silence. "Being this weak again is exhausting, a real waste of resources. But screw it."
He spoke calmly, and at that moment, all the most powerful cultivators took a deep breath. The Azure Dragon and the Starry Sky Tree sects, being very old—though not as old as the four nations—had a few records from before the war when all the primordial beasts still roamed free.
In those ancient records, there were a few lines mentioning the anti-life law. The Behemoth and the earth laws were the personification of birth and death, the union of Yin and Yang; natural life blooms on the earth and dies, returning to it. Everyone knew that Yin and Yang were opposite poles, impossible to coexist, but if there was anything close to that coexistence, it was definitely the earth laws.
This anti-life law took the death aspect of the earth laws to the extreme. Ordinary cultivators could never reach this level; only the Behemoth itself had the necessary control to create it.
Seeing such pure bloodline in the whale, those two were certain that only he could manipulate this law. As for the meteor, it obviously didn’t come from him; as he had mentioned before, it was a treasure left by the primordial beast for his son.
Things left by the primordial beasts were no surprise to anyone. In the Dragon Ascent Sect itself, there’s a legacy left by the Chaos Yin Dragon. Throughout history, there have been records of other extreme relics being found by some lucky individuals.
Therefore, the fact that the whale managed to pull off something so surreal was perfectly explainable. He simply burned an unbelievable, one-time-use treasure. Something that could kill anything and save him from any situation.
The two sighed heavily, and their thoughts aligned almost synchronously. Those gods messed with the wrong person; if he were just a young cultivator, it would be understandable. But upon discovering that he was the God of the Forge, they should have been extremely cautious, just as they were against other gods. They underestimated him because he was weakened, but someone who became a god is certainly unpredictable.
The whale moved slowly, and everyone watched him in silence. He really resolved everything on his own and in the most brutal way possible. Amid these thoughts, suddenly, everyone felt a powerful fluctuation arise out of nowhere.
All the cultivators turned in the same direction, surprised. The energy came from a place to the south, where they saw numerous spatial runes pulsating. It was a high-level formation, activated around an open spatial channel.
At that moment, everyone realized something, stunned: the dwarves were around that spatial channel. They were responsible for it. But why?
The whale signaled to the dwarves and spoke loud and clear: "Attack with everything you’ve got. Destroy the hive of the false god’s worshippers, annihilate everything related to the God of Wealth! Today, I declare the end of everything related to him!"
"DESTROY!!!" Immediately, a deafening roar echoed in response.
It wasn’t just a few thousand dwarves who were there before. At some point, while everyone was stunned and distracted by the whale, millions of other dwarves arrived through the spatial channel and took position.
They moved with furious momentum, entering the spatial channel surrounded by the spatial formation.
As soon as they crossed, they were covered in full armor. All the dwarves transformed into metal monsters two meters tall; on their bodies, countless runes lit up, emanating a terrifying fluctuation.
On the other side, they found themselves on an ordinary planet in some unknown galaxy in the universe.
Everything there was simple and normal, you could hardly feel it was a divine world due to how weak it was. It was a place completely impossible to discover, and no cultivator passing by would notice anything unusual.
The dwarves acted in complete sync, with quick and coordinated movements. They spread out and used a relatively simple formation to completely seal the planet; nothing could escape now.
Meanwhile, the whale moved calmly toward the spatial channel, accompanied by Zaimo, Thea, Almin, and all the dwarves who were at the convention.
The formation that sealed the channel was the same one that sealed Rocky. It was a high-level setup that depended on accumulated resources to strengthen indefinitely. The dwarves spared no expense, and that was crucial in sealing the channel.
The whale crossed the channel calmly, and upon arriving on the other side, saw all the planet’s inhabitants in silence, looking up, terrified. Nothing there seemed to be the heart of the God of Wealth’s worshippers.
The dwarves were in the skies, sealing the entire place, alert. When Alm and Bruno arrived, it took them only two seconds to send a message to King Nival.
"Attack!"
The king roared, pointing to a location indicated by the whale. It was apparently a simple and ordinary forest. Millions of dwarves moved and, without hesitation, drew firearms and flying weapons, attacking from afar with all their might.
**RUMBLE!**
The entire planet shook with countless violent explosions of extreme power. It was as if the whole place was about to explode.
Countless beasts and life forms fled desperately. The entire forest turned to scorched earth in seconds. Until the space there began to warp, and then they saw hundreds of spatial channels opening from the ground.
From them emerged countless shadowy figures with red eyes.
"KILL!"
They were precisely the enemies—millions of them. The base of the God of Wealth’s worshippers was underground, surrounded by a formation. With the attack, the defenses began to crumble, and they were forced to come out and fight.
The bloody battle began, with sounds of gunfire and violent explosions covering the entire planet.
The whale sensed the enemies’ power level and nodded in satisfaction. ’Everything should flow smoothly,’ Bruno commented, while Alm immediately narrowed his eyes at the possible curse being cast.
The initial plan had been completely altered by the previous events. The idea was to use the anti-life law of the meteor to destroy all the enemies. The dwarves would be the final card, ensuring victory regardless of what the enemies had hidden.
However, having to use the meteor earlier than planned, they now had to rely solely on the dwarves’ power to win. They themselves were out of commission, having exhausted all the divine soul power and primordial energy to quickly end the convention. Recently, even the bloodline and Qi were used up, and the Origin law couldn’t be activated again for a while, so their allies could recover.
In space, those who came to the convention felt the fluctuations and quickly moved closer to the channel connecting the two locations.
Those at the peak of divine cultivation didn’t need to cross the channel to understand what was happening on the other side; they only had to send their senses to grasp the situation.
"This is impossible..." a powerful figure murmured in astonishment.
The leader of the Azure Dragon Sect observed the battle, and like the others, was shocked. They had seen the dwarves’ armor during the convention, but due to the low cultivation of those dwarves, they believed that the armor had limits.
At the convention, the dwarves’ power had multiplied more than tenfold. It seemed obvious that this wouldn’t work against someone at the peak of divine cultivation. Everyone thought the same, including the God of Wealth’s worshippers.
Now, the armor being used by the powerful dwarves revealed its true power, shattering that belief. They were being worn by cultivators at the peak of divine cultivation... and not only did it multiply power tenfold, but by about a hundredfold...
This had clearly been planned by Alm and Bruno. The dwarves who accompanied them to the convention wore armor made of simple materials, with few runes, and they were of low level. All to avoid alerting the others, leading them to believe that those armors were just for weak cultivators.
Before, the dwarves were ridiculously weak for not having cultivated on their own. But with this armor, they became tigers with wings. Their individual power was far above the average of a cultivator in the same realm.
Everyone broke into a cold sweat. Suddenly, the dwarves, once numerous and weak, became the greatest force in the universe. Even the Dragon Ascent Sect hesitated to claim they could defeat them. Anyone who opposed them risked being completely crushed.
Already facing that battle; everyone in the universe knew about the death feud between the worshippers of the God of Merchants and those of the God of Wealth. That’s why no one blamed or interfered with them. They perfectly understood that this convention was a golden opportunity to settle this conflict. They hid their power and acted swiftly and stealthily, giving no chance for escape.
The God of Wealth’s worshippers could never have predicted this situation. Before, the dwarves wouldn’t have had the power to destroy them, even if they knew exactly where they lived. Even if they tried something foolish, they could simply close the channel, cutting off the resources to keep it open. Then, it would be a matter of killing all the invaders to keep the location secret.
Those dwarves began acting quietly as soon as the convention started. The events of the convention, followed by the whale’s massacre, caused such a disturbance that no one noticed their movements. The resources to keep this channel open now came from the formation, and they couldn’t close it anymore.
In the midst of the conflict, the shadowy enemies began to fall easily; the dwarves were truly terrifying. Until a powerful figure, observing everything, coldly analyzed the situation.

A smile appeared on his face, and he roared, "You think you can destroy us? Hahahaha, this is our great opportunity! Use everything!"
After his orders, the ground began to tremble. Alm and Bruno narrowed their eyes, seeing something black and five meters tall emerge in the center of everything.
It was a statue, but the figure depicted had no details. It was humanoid, but almost impossible to identify the race, gender, or any other characteristic.
At that moment, the two felt the statue pulsate and tremble. Their hearts raced in despair... and fury.
’Sons of bitches! They’re burning...’ Alm swallowed his words, stunned as he felt the energy flowing into the statue.
Clearly, it was thousands of crystals of all kinds, and also treasures being burned, feeding the statue. In a second, the amount multiplied and continued to grow.
’Fuck! They’re wasting all their resources mercilessly! They’re burning what’s ours!’ Bruno exclaimed, sending an immediate message to the dwarf king.
He nodded and gave the order. Without hesitation, all the dwarves with the greatest firepower aimed their weapons at the statue and fired.
But... there was no sound of destruction, just a muffled sound. The statue absorbed everything easily, even if it were a hundred times more powerful it wouldn’t be destroyed.
In the next second, all the enemies roared. Suddenly, the dwarves were forced to retreat.
The statue seemed to be connecting and strengthening all the enemies. What was once a hopeless battle for the enemies had now completely changed. They had evened the odds!
’Shit, we messed up,’ Alm said flatly. ’The God of the Forge himself created these people and certainly this statue. He clearly said that with his hammer, we could easily win and take all the accumulated resources.’ (Chapter 612)
The whale nearly shed tears of blood as he felt the staggering amount of resources being burned. If they had gotten the hammer and followed the God of the Forge’s plan, destroying the statue probably would have been simple.
’That bastard dwarf!’ Bruno exclaimed furiously, ’We skipped steps and attacked without getting the hammer first. But marrying someone else was never going to happen, I’d rather steal the hammer instead. We also couldn’t wait; this opportunity would only come once.’
