"I told you! I won't touch Xiao Wu!
Let's unite against the enemy first!"
Tang San transformed into a blue meteor in the sky, swiftly piercing through the clouds of the God Realm composed of immortal spiritual energy.
The pressure of a first-level god brazenly bared its fangs in the air.
The officials and third-level gods on the God Realm trembled in fear.
Even second-level gods felt uneasy; the difference in strength between first-level and second-level gods was vast.
Actually, Tang San didn't want to make such a grand display, mainly because his internal consciousness wasn't cooperating.
His divine power and consciousness were currently chaotic, causing his aura to leak out.
"Is that the Sea God?"
"What is he doing? Releasing his aura like that, even a member of the God Realm Committee would be punished, right?"
"Also, why is the other party's emotion so chaotic?"
"Like schizophrenia, can gods get schizophrenia?"
The God of Emotions, Rong Nianbing, stared dumbfounded in front of her small wooden house at Tang San, who had transformed into a meteor in the sky, completely bewildered.
Always extremely sensitive to emotions, he easily sensed Tang San's unusual state.
Tang San's divine power, though seemingly unified, was fragmented and independent.
The divine consciousness mixed within the power was chaotic, even exhibiting self-attacks.
This usually only occurred in those who had gone into a state of demonic possession, but it was unlikely for a deity to do so.
The divine position was the best safeguard, especially the Sea God's position, known for its tranquility.
Rong Nianbing felt Tang San was more like one of those schizophrenic patients in the lower realms.
Feng Nu, carrying a basket of fruit, approached Rong Nianbing, watching the Sea God speeding through the sky, and said,
"A while ago it was the God of Destruction running wildly in the sky, and today it's the Sea God."
"What's wrong with the God Realm?"
"And what's wrong with the Sea God this time?"
Rong Nianbing looked at his wife with affection, scratched his head, and spoke with a strong sense of uncertainty.
"Uh, the Sea God seems to have gone insane."
"At least that's how it seems to me."
A bunch of question marks appeared on Feng Nu's forehead as her clear voice rang in Rong Nianbing's ears.
"Mental illness? Are you sure?
A deity with a divine position can get mental illness?"
"By the way, doesn't the direction the Sea God is heading seem a little familiar?"
Hearing Feng Nu's question, Rong Nianbing pinched her chin with her fingers and compared the Sea God's direction of travel with the map of the divine realm in her mind.
Her eyes widened suddenly.
"Wait, that's the God of Pride's stronghold!"
"And the Sea God looks so aggressive, oh no! It looks like a fight is about to break out."
Feng Nu said nervously,
"Is the Sea God's faction going to war with the Destruction faction?"
Rong Nianbing said gravely,
"It's hard to say."
"Their target isn't the Destruction Castle, but the God of Original Sin. Well, that's practically the same as starting a war."
"I need to leave for a bit. If they really get into a fight, I need to go and mediate."
Feng Nu pulled Rong Nianbing back, saying,
"Go find the Elemental Gods first. You probably can't stop them by yourself."
"Also, don't jump in right away. Observe the situation first, and then go and mediate when one side can't hold on anymore."
Rong Nianbing understood and said,
"Don't worry, I understand."
"I'll leave the things at home to you for now."
After saying that, Rong Nianbing transformed into a streak of light and sped towards the Elemental Gods' residence.
If the two sides really got into a fight, the eight of them together would be enough to stop all the gods.
The premise is that the God of Destruction won't intervene.
The opponent is a veteran God-King, possessing terrifying combat power and currently the most senior being in the God Realm, with many gods having benefited from his influence.
With a single command, hundreds of level three and two gods would gang up on them.
This is why Phoenix Maiden didn't want Rong Nianbing to intervene immediately; she didn't want to be labeled as part of a faction.
Mediation is fine, but don't get yourself involved.
...
The God Realm, the Land of Original Sin.
A handsome male god with long golden hair, bulging muscles, and dark blue divine power flowing across his exposed skin was carrying some rare timber home.
An aura of madness and repression emanated from him.
As the God of Pride, he liked to maintain an elegant atmosphere in his home.
The rare timber emitted a unique fragrance when burned, which the God of Pride greatly appreciated.
The God of Pride hummed a tune, clearly in a good mood.
He was very lucky today, finding rare trees he hadn't seen in a long time in the forest; even the God of Destruction praised the fragrance of these burning trees.
If one ignores the divine aura surrounding the other's body, the God of Pride doesn't seem to match his title.
However, this is normal; the God of Original Sin only governs the rules of Original Sin, not Original Sin itself.
The God of Pride isn't inherently arrogant; it's just that the power of his divine position makes him instinctively project this image of Original Sin onto the outside world.
Suddenly, the God of Pride put down the wood in his hand, raised his head, and gazed solemnly at the sky.
His divine sense detected a powerful aura hurtling towards him.
Soon after, half the sky above was filled with azure light.
Layers of illusory waves echoed through the air with their roar.
Without hesitation, the God of Pride unleashed his divine power, breaking free from the waves and instantly arriving on the other side of the forest.
The moment he left, the azure waves, imbued with divine power, simulated the raging sea, accumulating energy before unleashing a devastating roar, reducing the entire forest to dust in the illusory ocean.
The God of Pride glared angrily at the Sea God, who had materialized in the sky, and cried out,
"My forest!!!"
"Sea God!"
"Are you trying to incite a divine war by attacking a deity without provocation?!"
Tang San coldly stared at the God of Pride below.
He only wanted him dead.
The eight opposing forces within him ceased their internal struggle; their hatred for the God of Original Sin was united.
"I still have a question for you!"
"You ambushed me for no reason!"
"Enough nonsense! Today I'll kill you!"
"Unpredictable Storm!"
The golden trident appeared in his hand, then gently swung, several dazzling golden halos enveloping the God of Arrogance.
The God of Arrogance couldn't dodge in time and was directly hit.
As the strongest control divine skill, the God of Arrogance would be under control for at least three seconds.
"Never to return!"
Tang San seized the opportunity to swing the golden trident, a golden light tearing through space and striking the God of Arrogance's head, clearly intending to kill him instantly.
The God of Arrogance's hair stood on end, and violent divine power surged from his body.
Now, controlled by Unpredictable Storm, he had no way to dodge and could only face it head-on.
"You really think I'm afraid of you?! Sea God!"
"Nine Heavens of Arrogance!"
The God of Arrogance's divine power suddenly doubled, and then he threw a punch, a dark blue lightning ball appearing between the Sea God and the God of Arrogance.
This was the Nine Heavens of Arrogance Divine Thunder, the strongest attack technique of the God of Arrogance.
The thunderbolt burst forth with a breathtaking light, engulfing space and shattering it into fragments.
Streams of lightning turned the once azure sky a dark blue.
The sky was filled with the divine power of the original sin of arrogance.
The terrifying divine power made Tang San's brow twitch.
The God of Arrogance using the Nine Heavens of Arrogance had already reached the level of a top-tier first-level god in terms of divine power, although it was obvious at a glance that the opponent couldn't maintain it for long.
However, Tang San's eyes revealed disdain.
The opponent was merely putting on a brave front; daring to withstand his Unpredictable Storm? Simply courting death!
Since Tang San obtained this move from the old Sea God, it had never failed him.
Even the God King of Destruction would be controlled for at least a second if hit by this move.
An ordinary first-level god could be controlled for at least ten seconds.
"Trying to fight me? You're asking for death!"
The golden light that never returned collided with the Nine Heavens of Arrogance Divine Thunder with a deafening roar, gold and blue stealing all the colors from the world.
The terrifying energy completely obliterated the land below, leaving not a trace.
The forest that had existed since the Dragon God Realm vanished today.
It's estimated that only the Goddess of Life can restore this forest in the future.
The clash between the two first-level gods caused the entire God Realm to feel this terrifying energy fluctuation.
The closest second-level god was so shocked by the aftershocks that he coughed up blood and fled at top speed to find the God Realm Committee.
In the center of the battlefield, the God of Pride coughed up blood, swept far away by the energy blast.
He endured the pain, his crimson blood dripping onto the ground, splattering into crimson flowers.
Due to the Unstable Storm, he absorbed almost all the damage, directly forcing him into a state of supreme power.
Tang San stabilized himself in mid-air, unharmed.
In terms of raw strength, Tang San was significantly stronger than the God of Pride.
The Trident of the Sea God and the Golden Thirteen Halberds left behind by the old Sea God were indeed incredibly powerful.
With this skill, among the first-level gods, apart from the God of Emotions, no one could truly contend with Tang San.
"Arrogance, die!"
"A Thousand Years of Void!"
Tang San adjusted his stance, a fierce glint in his eyes.
He wielded his golden trident, countless shadows flashing like golden clouds.
The God of Arrogance's eyes reflected the approaching golden clouds, showing no fear; instead, a slight smile played on his lips.
"You were almost too late."
A dark green barrier appeared before the God of Arrogance, blocking Tang San's time-manipulation technique, A Thousand Years of Void.
Beside the God of Arrogance, six figures slowly revealed themselves.
Each had seven halos behind them, signifying their identity and strength.
The Seven Original Sin Gods gathered, confronting the Sea God in the sky.
