Chapter 394: Killing The Chief Gods, The Chief God Treaty
Meng Lei’s wish had come true, and he had gained 12 quadrillion Divinity Crystals after extracting Divinity Crystals from the mine.
Added to this the 2.209 quadrillion Divinity Crystals he already had, this came up to a total of 14.209 quadrillion Divinity Crystals!
In other words, he now had... 14,209 trillion Divinity Crystals!
Buying credit for any one type of supreme laws of nature required 5,000 trillion Divinity Crystals.
With 14,209 trillion Divinity Crystals, Meng Lei now had enough to buy credit for two types of supreme laws of nature.
Without any hesitation, Meng Lei had promptly bought credit for his time-based laws of nature and spatial laws of nature and boosted his comprehension rates for both to 100%, thereby fully comprehending these two types of supreme laws of nature.
It was an extremely strange and wonderful feeling when one had fully comprehended a type of supreme laws of nature. As far as the eye could see, the air was filled with densely packed time-based laws of nature and spatial laws of nature chains. They enveloped every corner of the void in a haphazard and disorderly manner, leaving no area untouched.
Meng Lei could usually vaguely see these laws of nature chains, too. But he was just like an illiterate looking at a dictionary—able to clearly see every single word, yet couldn’t recognize any, let alone understand what they meant, of course.
He could see them, but he didn’t know what they meant—Meng Lei had exactly been in that state previously.
However, things were different now!
Now, Meng Lei clearly understood what each single laws of nature chain meant, what kind of function each represented, what kind of effect each would bring... It was as if he had known all these all along.
This was a very peculiar experience. It felt very magical, very mysterious, and also... very powerful!
Yes, powerful!
The two supreme laws of nature were simply too powerful, so much so that Meng Lei felt as if he were under the misconception that he was the strongest entity in the whole of the universe!
“In the face of full and complete versions of supreme laws of nature, people who haven’t even comprehended any supreme laws of nature like the lot of you are no different from a bunch of total losers!”
Soft, gentle golden light—in other words, time-based laws of nature chains—spilled from Meng Lei’s aloof, dispassionate eyes. Wherever he looked, time stopped and went into an absolute state of stillness.
Even if one were a Chief God, and even if one were the most fearsome and strongest entity in the vast universe, they would still have to obediently stay still on the spot, no matter what.
Their divine bodies, as well as their minds and consciousness, had all entered a state of stillness! This was exactly what made time-based laws of nature so powerful!
Meng Lei took step after step toward the Nidhogg Chief God. Then, he reached out three of his fingers, slowly pierced them through the area in between the Nidhogg Chief God’s brows, and gouged out a crystal that shone with dazzling lights of different colors—it was none other than the Nidhogg Chief God’s Chief God divine core.
The Nidhogg Chief God didn’t put up any struggle during the whole process. Neither did he show any look of pain or agony. In fact, he didn’t even frown.
Wasn’t he in pain?
Of course not!
Time was needed in order for pain receptors to pick up pain and send the relevant signals through the nerve endings. Similarly, time was also needed for one’s thoughts and consciousness to run and operate. However, the Nidhogg Chief God’s time had already reached an absolute state of stillness, so he naturally wouldn’t feel any pain—or to be more accurate, he wasn’t in time to feel the pain yet!
After that, Meng Lei also went on to gouge out the Titan Chief God’s and the Angel Chief God’s Chief God divine cores, thereby completely taking for himself what the three great Chief Gods had depended on the most to become the strongest entities in the universe and to stand above the rest of the world.
“You can actually lock down the time around a Chief God, kid?”
Moro had been dumbstruck throughout the whole process. He asked, “How did you manage to do that? Could it be that... Your comprehension of time-based laws of nature has undergone a qualitative breakthrough?”
Meng Lei had successfully locked down the time around a Chief God! On top of that, he had even locked down the time around three Chief Gods at one go!
Now, this was simply too dramatic!
Although all three Chief Gods were just lesser Chief Gods and had zero comprehension of supreme laws of nature, their divine bodies and divine spirits were incredibly strong and powerful. Moreover, they also possessed Chief God divine cores. Thus, they had an exceedingly great influence on the time and space around themselves.
Locking down the time around them... This was simply too difficult a task!
Yet Meng Lei had achieved it, nonetheless. On top of that, he had even done it skillfully, easily, and effortlessly. This was simply too shocking. Moro couldn’t help but be astonished!
“I’ve already fully comprehended time-based laws of nature,” replied Meng Lei unhurriedly.
The gentle golden light in his eyes gradually faded, and the time around them resumed its flow. The three great Chief Gods’ shackled thoughts and consciousnesses also began to function once more.
At once, the sight of their divine bodies, the bloody holes in the areas between their brows, and Meng Lei, who was standing right in front of them, entered their line of vision.
“What’s going on?”
The three Chief Gods were rather bewildered. They hastily released divine spirit energy waves to check the surroundings, and the moment they did, they turned pale with horror—Meng Lei was actually holding their Chief God divine cores in his hand!
“What exactly is going on ?”
“Why are our Chief God divine cores in his hands?”
The three Chief Gods were utterly flummoxed. They had clearly been attacking Meng Lei just now, yet Meng Lei had already gotten hold of their Chief God divine cores the very next moment. They were absolutely certain that nothing had happened during this entire process!
Perplexed and horrified, they couldn’t understand what had happened and found it hard to accept the current situation.
“Are you very surprised?” asked Meng Lei calmly as he played with the Chief God divine cores he was holding.
“What exactly did you do to us?!” shouted the Nidhogg Chief God.
“I suppose there’s no harm in telling you,” Meng Lei said calmly, “I cast Time Freeze just now and stopped your flow of time. However, my flow of time remains active in the meantime. Get it?”
“T-Time Freeze!”
Realization dawned upon the three Chief Gods, and they instantly understood what had happened. The Nidhogg Chief God couldn’t help but exclaim, “The laws of nature that you’ve comprehended are actually time-based laws of nature?!”
“That’s right.”
Meng Lei nodded lightly.
The Angel Chief God’s voice trembled as he asked, “For you to be able to instantly lock down three Chief Gods’ flow of time, to what extent has your comprehension of time-based laws of nature exactly reached?”
“I’ve already fully comprehended time-based laws of nature.”
Meng Lei didn’t hold back any information. There wasn’t any need for him to do that anyway.
“Y-you’ve already fully comprehended it?!”
The three Chief Gods were thunderstruck.
A Great Perfection deity could already contend with a lesser Chief God after comprehending a bit of supreme laws of nature. Upon reaching a 50% comprehension rate, they could even contend with an intermediate Chief God. When they reached a full comprehension rate, they could contend with a higher Chief God!
Since Meng Lei had already fully comprehended time-based laws of nature, then that meant that he could already contend with a higher Chief God, whereas they were only lesser Chief Gods at the bottom of the tier. How could they possibly contend with Meng Lei?
The Titan Chief God broke into curses and shouted, “Nidhogg, you fool! You’ve totally screwed us over!”
He hated the Nidhogg Chief God with practically every fiber of his being right now.
He really wished he could go back in time and brutally kill the Nidhogg Chief God’s grandfather when he was only nine years old. This way, the frightening situation he was currently in would never have happened.
“F*ck you, Nidhogg!”
The Angel Chief God, who was just as furious, looked as if he wanted to tear Nidhogg into two with his own hands.
“Is there any use in complaining now? Hurry and think of something!” The Nidhogg Chief God was close to a mental breakdown by now.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have ever thought that there would come a day where he, a great Chief God, would end up in such a predicament. He was a Chief God! How could he let himself die?
“You bastard!”
Despite being so furious and hateful that they were practically gnashing their teeth, both the Titan Chief God and the Angel Chief God knew that no amount of complaining or verbal abuse would help the situation in any way right now. The most pressing matter at the moment was to return to their divine bodies as soon they could. This way, they would survive!
At the very least, they would still be able to retain their positions as Chief Gods!
“Mister... No, sir, esteemed sir!”
The Angel Chief God did a huge 180-degree reversal and adopted the sincerest attitude he could ever adopt.
He said, “We were blind to have affronted you earlier. Please be magnanimous and let us off, sir! You’ll definitely have our gratitude!”
“That’s right, sir, please let us off! As long as you’re willing to spare our lives, we’ll satisfy any of your requests!”
The Titan Chief God also spoke up, his tone of voice fearful and panic-stricken to the extreme.
“Sir, I have innumerable precious and exotic treasures and existential plane fiefs. As long as you let us off, I’m happy to offer them up on a silv—”
“Do you actually think that your treasures and everything else you own will fall into someone else’s hands after your deaths?” Meng Lei let out a contemptuous scoff and said, “Dream on!”
“No, you can’t kill us! By the Chief God Treaty’s rules, Chief Gods are prohibited from killing one another. Otherwise, they’ll become all Chief Gods’ public enemy...”
