Otherworld.
Carl's figure appeared out of thin air.
At this moment, the Moon Goddess's defense barrier was on the verge of shattering, and the entire world began to connect with the outside.
The radiance of the Outer Domain Divines fell from afar.
Certain beings that had been hidden for thousands of years also began to act, fleeing this world one after another.
They are not Divines and don't need faith to increase their power, nor do they have the intention to guard the beings of this world, nor are they willing to submit to the Gods. Fortunately, the universe is vast, and as long as one's strength surpasses the Third Tier, there's plenty of space for them.
For example:
The former Great Elder of the Holy Hall, the founder of the Desecration Knight, some special creatures hidden in Void City...
Among them were two acquaintances of Carl.
For thousands of years, they have been constantly thinking about escaping this world, and now is the perfect opportunity.
The backhands left by the Outer Domain Divines during the Gods' War have also awakened one after another, infiltrating the Holy Hall.
The Holy Hall,
has become the only obstacle to resisting the invasion of the Divines.
Ten years later.
"Bang!"
"Crack..."
The remnant moon in the sky quietly shattered, and the last crescent moon also scattered into a myriad of starlight, falling towards the continent.
Immediately following.
Were dozens of beams of light descending from the sky.
Within each beam was a figure, a powerful aura, and a pure intent.
"All beings suffer, transcend to ultimate bliss!"
"An evil person, estranged from God upon birth, takes the wrong path upon leaving the womb, lies, embodies the seven deadly sins, only God can wash away sins."
"The faithless shall forever wander the void, nailed to the wall of unbelievers!"
"..."
The vast divine voice resounded throughout the world, echoing in the ears and Spiritual Inner Sea of every living creature.
Urging, compassionate, or threatening...
In essence, faith is required.
"Shut up!"
Carl uttered in a low voice.
His voice was not loud, yet it instantly overshadowed all other sounds, like a specific rule suppressing everything.
"Get lost!"
"Or die!"
The entire world suddenly fell silent.
"Evil existence, how dare you defy the will of God." a certain Great Angel raised its head and shouted angrily:
"Are you not afraid..."
"Bang!"
Before it finished speaking, an invisible force instantly fell, and the Great Angel's body, as strong as a star, shattered on the spot. Even its consciousness and the divinity within it were devoured by an invisible force.
The other beings who descended upon this world with the Great Angel felt a heavy weight in their hearts.
The Great Angel is not a Divine.
But it was blessed by an Upper God, possessing the power and authority comparable to a Fourth Tier Lower God.
Yet now...
It was annihilated without resistance!
"Carl."
At this moment, a grand voice rang out:
"As the Original God of this world, you can continue to spread faith, we can coexist."
A blazing sun appeared, descending in mid-air, revealing a Golden-armored God's figure.
The God directly faced Carl's location and spoke slowly:
"This world is not yours alone."
"This world does not need gods." Carl's body floated, repeating the previous threat to the Angel:
"Get lost!"
"Or die!"
"No one can refuse the radiance." The Golden-armored God gently shook His head, a scepter appearing in His hand:
"Sins, under the radiance, have nowhere to hide."
The sky suddenly brightened.
Endless light bloomed from the Golden-armored God, illuminating billions of miles in an instant.
Sixth Tier!
Upper God!
God of Bright Day!
The light had no lethal power; instead, it could heal wounds, whether physical or spiritual.
At the same time.
The darkness in one's heart is also illuminated by the light.
A person feels no pain, no suffering, no sadness, only joy and exhilaration.
Naturally, there would be no more killing intent or hostility, feeling the divine radiance of the Golden-armored God from deep within.
But humans are complex; losing this part of emotions would only make them a puppet of the Golden-armored God, a machine providing faith.
"Swish!"
Carl's figure suddenly appeared behind the Golden-armored God, raising his hand in a fierce, violent fist imprint.
Faced with the oncoming onslaught, the Golden-armored God felt no emotional fluctuation in His heart.
His body was composed entirely of pure energy.
Divine Power formed the flesh, divinity condensed the marrow, Divine Fire nourished the organs, and the Divine Rank was like the meridian, forming the body.
Any purely physical attack would have no effect.
"Poof!"
The expression of the Golden-armored God stiffened, and He slowly lowered His head, looking at the fist penetrating His chest, stained with Divine Blood.
How could this be?
"Surprised?"
Carl withdrew his arm, looking at the fading life of the Golden-armored God:
"My ability is to devour divine source material."
"However..." the Golden-armored God opened:
"It's not supposed to be..."
"Just that, of course, isn't enough to easily kill you." Carl nodded, continuing to explain:
"But I also learned another ability from two children, a means to destroy faith."
"Before me, all Divine are like paper."
"Pierce and they shatter!"
Not only that.
He could also strengthen himself by slaying the Divine.
The body of the Golden-armored God began to crumble, decompose, and finally turned into the most primitive energy, drifting in the air.
Death?
Divine do not die.
Those killed by Carl are denied even the right to die, only ceasing to exist, fading into nothingness.
Source Material +260000000
Seventh Tier!
True God!
In this world, favored by the Power of the World, he unexpectedly possessed the strength that only True Gods have.
Moreover, once adapted to this power, he could maintain it without losing it even if he left this world.
Which means...
He has become Seventh Tier!
To other Divine, this may be hard to comprehend, but it's actually quite normal.
The Eastern Kingdom Continent and here were once worlds where Seventh Tier Main Gods were born, the most primitive worlds.
Now all the Gods of both worlds have fallen, and Carl alone receives the gifts of both worlds.
Advancing,
it's only natural.
Not breaking through would be unusual.
Coasting in mid-air, Carl surveyed his surroundings.
In his 'sight', each 'Divine' in the starry sky of the Outer Domain shone brightly.
Every Divine could be transformed into resources for his growth.
"Child of Destruction..."
The voice of the creator was heard.
The creator had no true physical form, appearing in reality as a gigantic cosmic battleship, its size comparable to more than a dozen worlds, able to house billions of lives inside.
"So it was you who is the Child of Destruction!"
The birth of the Child of Destruction has spread among the Seventh Tier Main Gods, and certainly reached his ears.
However, the Eastern Kingdom Continent was too far away, and the creator was unable to reach it in a short time.
Unexpectedly,
the opponent appeared here.
"Kill him!"
The Dragon Calamity hovered above dozens of planets, like a corpulent dragon covered with tumors, roaring loudly:
"He feeds on the Gods, a nemesis to all Divine!"
"Carl!"
The Seventh Tier Dark Demon God appeared, holding the Holy Artifact shroud, his dark eyes falling on Carl from a distance:
"Remove the power within you, or be an enemy of the Gods, no matter where you run to, it won't help."
"Now I understand." Carl shook his head, slowly speaking:
"Fate guided me here, bringing the Twilight of the Gods, but we can make a pact."
"Don't threaten me, you should be aware of my potential."
"What pact?" the creator asked.
"A pact between the Gods and me." Carl said:
"I can seal my power, but you must swear not to seek the faith of this world."

"Living so many years, my friends have all gone, and those I once knew no longer exist."
"Sometimes I ask myself, what is the meaning of living?"
On the mountain top.
Carl touched the already grown Cain's head, smiling:
"I haven't found it yet, but maybe that's for the best. If one day I do find it, it might become meaningless."
"Teacher."
Cain lifted his head, his face serious:
"The True God has sealed our world, is there any need for you to negotiate with them?"
"Of course." Carl nodded:
"They sealed the world, which precisely shows they are afraid, otherwise they wouldn't exert such great effort."
"Then..." Cain asked:
"What will the negotiation lead to?"
"Freedom."
Carl smiled:
"Limited freedom."
......
Carl flew into the sky, Cain waited on the mountain top for a long time, but his teacher never returned.
However, he knew Carl had reached some kind of agreement with the Gods.
Otherwise,
The Gods would have long unleashed world-ending divine punishment.
The sealing of both worlds remains, but as long as cultivation breaks through the Third Tier, one can go to other worlds.
Moreover,
As strength increases, fertility decreases.
Anyone capable of leaving the world will be unable to produce offspring, this was the revised rule of the world.
The faith created by the descendants of Cain and his sister was poisonous to the Gods.
So...
Within the world, the Gods would not spread their faith.
Upon leaving, they would be unable to bear offspring, equivalent to Cain's bloodline posing no threat to the Gods.
As for Carl...
He surely hasn't died, but he also must have paid some price, then gone to another place.
Perhaps searching for the Knight Path of the Ancient Knights, or perhaps embarking on the Wizard's journey anew.
Who knows?
