With Jehovah's furious rebuke , Zhou Yi felt an immense pain radiating through his body. Every cell, every piece of skin, every bone, and every nerve felt twisted and torn apart by his own glorious Divine Power . What immense torture this was for his body!
Despite her divine body, she could not bear this pain. This pain drove her to scream uncontrollably.
At the same moment, the Sun Wheel surrounding him also began to lose its divine power . The intertwined flames almost instantly lost their shape. The thundering thunder in the sky and the sea of boiling light beneath his feet almost completely merged. They shattered the Sun Wheel like shards of glass, then hurled towards Zhou Yi, who was at the center of the Sun Wheel .
At that moment, Zhou Yi couldn't even stand, let alone resist. Surrounded by countless flashes of lightning and thunder, he had become a living target. Each blow wounded his body, each strike inflicting increasing pain. He could no longer bear it and fell from the clouds like a burning meteor.
Lightning flashes and flames heated his body incredibly. He lost control and fell into the vast Red Sea below .
As he fell, waves of blood surged, splashing everywhere, and the creatures of the Red Sea perished en masse from the persistent heat of the lightning and fire emanating from his body.
This situation caused Lilith, who had always longed to add the Red Sea to her own Hell , to let out a painful groan. The creatures in the Red Sea were like clones of her life ; losing even one drained her life force. If these creatures were completely destroyed, only one life would remain. And to try to defy God with only that single life was nothing but a utter illusion.
Initially, his goal was to use Zhou Yi to buy valuable time to return to his best form as quickly as possible. That way, the two of them could combine their strengths against the God. Even if they couldn't win, they certainly wouldn't be defeated.
But the situation was beyond his imagination. He hadn't anticipated that Jehovah could be so powerful, far more powerful than they had been in their previous battles . Nor had he expected such miraculous power. Even Zhou Yi, the unpredictable New God who seemed incredibly powerful, had been defeated by Karma, which Jehovah had altered .
The situation was now clear. But what awaited them next?
Lilith seemed to have foreseen a sealed future; a future she certainly did not want to endure. Even if it meant annihilation, she would not remain trapped within the seal .
He was ready to take a desperate gamble.
With his weakened body, he was preparing to face God, who stood majestically in the sky with immense divine power . Just then, a strange ripple coming from the Red Sea caught his attention.
She was the Queen of the Red Sea ; and, from another perspective, also the Goddess of Life. She was very familiar with the energy of life. That is why she could feel the life energy silently growing and strengthening in the depths of the Red Sea .
Zhou Yi had given him yet another unexpected surprise. He had thought that reaching the previous level was the limit of this New God . Even if he survived facing Jehovah's immense power , he would barely have the strength to hold on and fight to survive.
But now it seems he had underestimated Zhou Yi, and he had seriously underestimated this New God .
He hadn't suffered any serious damage; rather, in the Sea of Life, this newly wounded New God was healing very quickly. His Life Force and Divine Power were becoming even stronger than before.
Lilith could sense a new power emerging. This power was not only affecting the New God Zhou Yi , but it was also growing in her Red Sea and feeding back into her own body.
This was the power of life, a great divine power belonging to the Life Realm , and it was entirely different from his own. Just like the real Sun in the sky , this divine power emanating from Zhou Yi possessed an unimaginable vitality.
Just as sunlight illuminates the world and nourishes everything, Zhou Yi's Divine Power , while repairing itself alongside Lilith's Sea of Life , also began to feed back into this crimson sea.
Her divine radiance made the creatures of this red sea stronger and more resilient. It also enabled the Lord of the Red Sea to gain even more power . Their habitats completely and closely overlapped , creating perfect synergy. And this caused the divine powers of both of them to increase even further.
Of course, this power boost was completely insignificant given their current circumstances. However, this change made Lilith more beautiful.
Zhou Yi's unpredictability drove him to place all his hopes on him in this most desperate moment. The situation had become so dire that he had no choice but to take a huge gamble.
Therefore, Lilith completely ignored God in the heavens at that moment . Suddenly, she hurled her serpentine body, leaped from her throne, and plunged like a swimming fish into the Red Sea below.
He intended to use this short period of time to reveal the greatest secret of the Divine Being to the New God Zhou Yi, thus enabling him to attain Divine Power equal to that of a God .
Of course, he knew it was an unrealistic fantasy. After all, even the greatest genius couldn't grasp the truth of this secret directly and build the real power of a god in such a short time.
But he had no other choice, and all he could do was hope that Zhou Yi's unpredictability would once again come into play.
When the God in the sky saw that Lilith didn't dare confront him directly and instead plunged into the Red Sea , he immediately thought that she intended to flee back to her hell and find a chance to cling to life there.
Jehovah was reluctant at this possibility . Why had he gone to such lengths, even clashing with the New God Zhou Yi ? Wasn't it to prevent his old rival from finding any breathing room? So when he realized Lilith could escape, he immediately launched an attack against her.
The endless thunder and the Holy Light poured into Lilith's Red Sea , beginning to slaughter all living things within it. As an old enemy, he was all too familiar with Lilith's methods . If these creatures of the Red Sea couldn't be completely destroyed, it would be of no use to Lilith . What kind of blow could strike her that would have such a devastating effect on her life force?
This was the capital where Lilith reigned supreme in the legendary age of the past ; she was known as the Immortal Witch Queen and relied on these creatures. No matter how violent the blow, how terrible the damage, it could only take one life at most. But Lilith , because she possessed this Red Sea, had almost infinite lives.
You could kill it once, but you couldn't kill it ten thousand times. After all, it was a divine being, not a lamb to be slaughtered; it couldn't be killed so easily.
Therefore, even Jehovah , who defeated it in mythological times , could only choose to seal it off rather than destroy it completely .
But now the situation was different. To preserve her power , Lilith had unleashed the Red Sea . This also meant unleashing her eternal life. The Witch Queen, the Goddess of Night , Lilith , with her countless lives, was invincible. However, she could be utterly destroyed when the countless creatures of the Red Sea came together.
With no more life forms left to provide a foothold in the Red Sea , Lilith meant nothing in Jehovah's eyes .
At that moment , Jehovah , as he pleased , released thunder and the Holy Light , and poured out his boundless Divine Power upon the Red Sea .
Although the Red Sea was a sacred incarnation endowed with Lilith's divine power , it now faced a far more powerful God. Therefore, it could not withstand Jehovah's divine might for long.
Endless waves of blood rose, and countless creatures cried out in unison. The Red Sea was receiving immense and devastating blows almost every moment, every second . And Lilith, whose life depended on it, was suffering the same agony.
But he endured the pain , disregarding Jehovah's relentless attacks, even abandoning the crucial Red Sea , and swam desperately toward Zhou Yi, who was still writhing in agony.
He went over to him and spoke loudly to Zhou Yi, whose eyes were tightly closed.
" Oh, new God of the world , we still have a chance. Perhaps I can help you defeat Jehovah !"
Hearing this, Zhou Yi opened his eyes, enduring the pain. Although she didn't speak , Lilith understood her meaning from his gaze. She wanted to learn how she could defeat Jehovah, who possessed such mysterious power .
"Listen, all divine beings have true names. This is not merely a symbol of glory and status, but the most fundamental source of a divine being's power. Only a divine being with a true name can control all its power. And only a divine being who has concentrated its true name is a truly powerful divine being. If you want to fight Jehovah , the one called God, you must concentrate your true name right now!"
How can I possibly concentrate this damned true name? Zhou Yi's eyes clearly showed this question. His time as a God was pathetically short; he didn't even know the most basic things about Godhood, let alone the knowledge of condensing the true name, which was considered the most secret knowledge.
"Follow me, and I will reveal to you the most important secret of the Divine."
After saying this, Lilith swam and coiled her entire snake body around Zhou Yi. The cold snake body coiled around him, instantly pulling them tightly together. And at the same time, Lilith leaned her head towards Zhou Yi's lips.
A cold liquid flowed down Zhou Yi's throat and spread through his body. At the same time, a complex body of information entered Zhou Yi's mind.
This meant knowing the true name of a God and the miraculous exercise of His authority. It could reveal the divine nature of a God, enabling Him to utilize one hundred percent of His power, or even more.
At that moment, Zhou Yi understood. He finally grasped the missing piece. Simultaneously, he finally completed the last missing component of his divine power.
By shattering all illusions, he began to understand what the true nature of a God ultimately was.
