'Death God' Hel!
As a devout follower of the 'Death God' on this continent, he gained a portion of divine power after the demise of the Divine.
Carl looked at the other party, his eyes revealing clarity:
"To think you've become a Sixth Tier Upper God!"
"It seems, you've already betrayed the Original Gods of the Eastern Kingdom Continent and pledged allegiance to the Outer Domain Main God."
"No!"
He gently shook his head:
"From the very beginning, you never intended to truly resurrect the Divine, but rather to replace them."
Two ironclad rules established at the foundation of the Temple of Gods.
One: To resurrect the Gods.
Two: To annihilate the bloodline.
The result.
The followers below fought hard and died for these two ironclad rules, while the figures at the top had their own calculations.
Remiller had a special fondness for mortals, though her faith was devout, she had no intention of resurrecting the Gods to re-enslave the living beings of this continent.
So her days were lived out sensibly, ignoring even if there were bloodlines or transcendent beings before her, running an orphanage in a secluded suburb for sustenance.
And 'Death God' Hel.
Although he continuously gathered divinity and transcendent items scattered across the world, they were not used for resurrecting the Gods but for boosting his own power.
However, means of the Ancient Gods were remarkable, even after death, he couldn't compare, and hence he could never take the final step, his power always at the Fifth Tier Peak Stage.
As for another member of the Three Giants...
Already dead by Hel's hand, his divine power stolen, becoming resources for bolstering Hel's strength.
"Hmph!"
Hel's eyes were sullen:
"If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have needed to rely on the Outer Domain Main God. I could have become a Sixth Tier relying on the Gods' remnants, becoming the new Divine of this continent."
"Now..."
"Everything is over!"
"Saying these things is now too late." Carl nodded:
"Perfect, let me see the true power of a Sixth Tier Upper God."
"Buzz..."
Before his words fell, he saw death god Hel surrounded by ripples, the energy fluctuations filled with a death aura already nearing.
Death Judgment!
This was a strike that transcended time and space.
As a Sixth Tier Upper God, the energy within Hel's body was a thousand times, ten thousand times that of Thunder Spear Tucker.
The application of energy, the operation of power, the means he could wield were even more profound.
Just like now.
The scythe in Hel's hand merely waved lightly, and a death radiance that sliced through all was already slashed out.
The energy wave capable of destroying everything carried a pure death aura, elemental particles of earth, fire, wind, and water, dimensions of space and time, perception of thoughts and consciousness, all dissolved before this energy wave.
Death,
is the destination of all things.
Not only living beings, even space and time would die.
All things will eventually end, unavoidable, and Death God Hel stood at the end of all things.
He,
commanded death.
As Hel took action, Carl also made his move, a spear suddenly appearing in his hand.
The dazzling thunderlight flickered within this Divine Domain Fragment.
Nine Heavens Thunderfall!
In an instant.
Countless afterimages appeared in the field, each striking with the spear in different postures.
"Boom!"
The violent thunder instantly tore apart the Divine Domain Fragment as large as a city, and even shone in the Star Realm.
"Tucker!"
Hel roared:
"How do you know his technique?"
Thunder not only had the power to destroy everything but also contained the vitality of all things, forcing the Death God to retreat.
"Very simple."
Carl stood silently with the spear in hand:
"Thunder Spear was a pure warrior, he helped me become Sixth Tier, naturally, he would also pass on his legacy to me."
"He also wanted to see..."
"What kind of brilliance his spear would bloom in the hands of a Sixth Tier Knight."
Tucker could naturally no longer witness it, but effortlessly breaking Hel was enough to testify to his strength.
In the same realm.
Tucker is the strongest warrior!
"Damn it!"
'Death God' Hel cursed softly, black aura lingering around him, with a flicker, he appeared behind Carl.
Die!
The black night of despair descended.
Carl turned, accompanied by a trail of electric light.
With the power of thunder imbued, every organ and cell of his body operated at alarming speed.
With each breath, he inhaled not air, but lightning.
At a thought.
A giant purely formed of thunder appeared out of nowhere, hurling a spear at Hel.
"Bang!"
In the eternally silent, dark Star Realm, a blinding light suddenly bloomed.
Not only was the explosive power of the thunder spear terrifying, but it also contained the rules of thunder's life and death, changing almost exhaustively within the ways of life and death, encompassing infinity.
After only a few simple exchanges, Death God Hel's body crumbled, despair appearing in his eyes.
However, merely for a moment.
His expression changed.
Cold, lifeless, distant, indifferent, calm, as if any change couldn't shake his will.
Death Wave!
Pure death intent rippled in the field, dissolving the thunder teeming with endless variations upon contact.
Hel suspended in mid-air looked calm, the black symbolizing death transformed into a robe slowly draping down, originally black-background Star Realm again plunged toward extreme night, dots of starlight gradually vanished.
In Carl's perception,
everything no longer existed, except those pitch-black eyes, shrouded by death aura from before.
"Seventh Tier!"
Carl showed solemnity, the aura within him circulating at unprecedented speed, directly facing the other as he spoke:
"True God!"
Only a Seventh Tier Main God can be called a True God.
A Main God holds the universal rules of myriad worlds, not limited by any one world, hence can be called true.
Hel abandoned his original faith, turned to an Outer Domain True God to become Sixth Tier, yet he couldn't possibly break through again.
So…
Now he is being possessed by some existence.
"Carl."
Gazing at Carl, 'Hel' spoke slowly:
"Young man on the path to True God, surrender the Child of Destruction, erase any memory related."
"I can let you go."
"Heh..." Carl chuckled lightly:
"If the True God could break through the Gods' seal, you would have already entered, why go to such lengths?"
"Even attached to Hel, aren't a Seventh Tier."
"Ignorant." 'Hel' did not show anger at Carl's words, maintaining usual calm in his tone.
No disdain, no ignoring, no anger, the nobility of a True God does not reveal through external things.
He himself,
is the synonym of nobility, invincibility.
"Buzz..."
The spear quivered lightly.
Carl was the first to take action, and right from the start, he went all out, with the Thunder Spear's fatal Thunder Tribulation.
Back then, Tucker used this strike to help Carl break through his limits and ascend to the Sixth Tier.
At this moment.
The thunder compressed to its extreme bloomed with light far beyond before, nearly illuminating the entire Star Realm.
Even the many Fourth Ring, Fifth Ring Wizards in the Wizard World trembled, feeling a natural disaster had arrived.
"God said."
Hel, holding the Death God Scythe, lowered his eyebrows, his voice was faint, yet still audible amidst the thunderclap.
"Let there be light!"
The Star Realm suddenly became bright.
Pure light directly overshadowed the sky full of thunder, within billions of kilometers, there was nothing but light.
"God said."
"All things will wither."
"Crack!"
The thunder, carrying the meaning of life and death's cycle, quietly began to shatter like autumn leaves.
"Crash..."
The lightning scattered like shattered glass.
Carl's expression changed.
Stripped away!
He could feel his consciousness detaching from his body, and the battle aura within him becoming unattainable.
So strong!
However…
Not a true Seventh Tier!
If he were a true Seventh Tier Main God, while stripping away his consciousness, he could easily erase Carl.
Now the reason Hel hasn't done so isn't that he doesn't want to, but because he can't.
The existence attached to Hel is undoubtedly a True God, but Hel himself is just an Upper God. Even if a True God holds absolute power, the strength is still limited in this world, in this body.
Heart Buddha Hand!
With a thought, a golden Buddha millions of feet tall appeared silently in the void.
The Buddha's hands each formed a seal technique.
"Thunder!"
"Fire!"
Heavenly thunder rolled!
Divine fire surged!
Carl's consciousness, body, and battle aura instantly united, as if becoming a perfectly round unobstructed Golden Core.
The Golden Core spun madly, and the immense energy erupted.
"Sigh!"
Facing the incoming attack, the True God couldn't help but sigh.
Carl has already embarked on the path of a True God.
Currently lacking foundation, but given enough time, he can almost certainly become Seventh Tier.
If outside.
The God could casually kill Carl.
But,
the limits of this body are clear, and resolving Carl through 'Hel' isn't easy.
If the confrontation lasts too long, it might even help Carl grow.
Within mere moments, the opponent's strength multiplied several times, approaching the Sixth Tier Peak Stage.
The longer the fight goes on, the more difficult it becomes.
It must be a swift battle!
With a thought, the True God slowly raised his hand, and a delicate, miniature golden box appeared in his palm.
It seemed like both a box and a cabinet.
Holy Artifact—Golden Covenant Box!
This is a weapon of ultimate tier, housing the most powerful Ten Commandments truths of the universe within.
However, now in 'Hel's' hand was just a projection of the Golden Covenant Box.
The real Golden Covenant Box was similarly unable to enter.
"Boom!"
The cabinet opened.
Inside was a seemingly insignificant stone.
Faint golden light emitted from the Golden Covenant Box, dissolving Carl's attack silently before it even approached.
"God said."
"All things will wither!"
The same phrase, but the power surged dozens of times, its influence covering the entire Eastern Kingdom Continent.
In an instant, millions died as a result.
"Where there's life, there's death; where there's death, there's life."
Carl stood hovering in mid-air, inside his body millions of source material burned furiously, transforming into surging energy.
"All things in the universe operate and transform as energy, thus…"
"Seal!"
At this moment.
In his vision, everything is an energy transformation—time, space, consciousness, all are like this.
The impact of energy running through space-time differs, resulting in life and death, and a vibrant, diverse world.
Upon reaching Sixth Tier, stepping on the path of a True God, all things and objects held no secrets in Carl's eyes.
No!
Some things he still couldn't see through.
Such as the True God,
Such as the Golden Covenant Box.
But it doesn't matter, he can seal what he cannot see through.
The energy within turned into a complex magic model, moving towards the opponent, as the light from the Golden Covenant Box dimmed.
Hel frowned, his expression becoming solemn:
"Death, the end of all things!"
One of the commandments contained in the Golden Covenant Box pertained to death, using its power to instantly break through the seal.
"It's futile."
He gently shook his head:
"As long as death exists, I will not be defeated, and death is not just about living beings, even space and time will perish."
"Therefore, I will never be defeated!"
"Enough."
His eyebrows lowered, looking below:
"You cannot kill me, nor can I take you down, better to spend the time resolving that Child of Destruction."
"Is that so?" Carl replied without confirmation:
"If outside, I really couldn't deal with you, but now you can only unleash Sixth Tier strength."
"Cease!"
Words became laws.
The entire world fell into a stagnant state at that moment.
No life!
Nor death!
Hmm?
Hel's eyes shifted slightly, then a look of helplessness as he watched his body disintegrate into fine dust.
In a state devoid of life and death, the rights of the Death God lost effect, and he was directly blasted into fragments.
"It's useless."
"Until you become a True God, you cannot protect this world, even after becoming a True God, it's useless."
"The Child of Destruction is the enemy of all True Gods, this land, this world is destined to be destroyed."
Along with the voice's dispersal, heaps of source material flooded into Carl's body.
Ten million!
One hundred million!
One billion!
Wave after wave of source material transformed into the nourishment for Carl's cultivation, with source power surging wildly from over seven hundred.
Until…
Source Power: 999!
Sixth Tier Limit!
