"You can rest assured about those evil soul masters. With the God Realm here, no matter what, they can't cause any trouble."
The Angel God's voice echoed throughout the golden world.
"I plan to keep them as part of my divine examination."
"Is that so?"
Ye Qiu nodded slightly.
With the Angel God's assurance, he felt somewhat at ease.
"Any other questions?"
the Angel God asked again.
Ye Qiu seized the opportunity, trying to struggle.
"Can you answer the questions I asked before?"
"I said, no comment."
The Angel God's mouth remained tight.
Ye Qiu stopped dwelling on it and nodded helplessly.
"Alright, then I have two more questions: Do those evil soul masters possess the inheritance of gods?"
Ye Qiu's voice fell.
The golden world was silent.
After a long while ,
the Angel God's voice, filled with hatred, rang out.
"Can they even be called gods? They're just a pile of filth."
"On a power level, based on your understanding, they do have gods, perhaps two now."
"Two?!"
Ye Qiu's heart trembled.
He had originally thought they only had one god related to blood.
How could there be two?
"Heh, they just corrupted the original god's divine power, used it as a catalyst, and then forcibly broke through with absolute energy." The
Angel God's voice was full of disdain.
If he hadn't been corrupted by those evil things, and
his own dark side hadn't appeared within him
, how could he have been injured so badly by those two who had only recently become gods? And now he
was barely clinging to life here.
"Doesn't creating a godhood require the power of faith?"
Ye Qiu asked doubtfully.
"Who told you that?"
The Angel God's voice was strange.
"Uh, you and the Sea God, didn't you both achieve godhood through the power of faith?"
Ye Qiu pointed to the great sun in front of him.
"You know all that?"
The Angel God scoffed, then coldly replied,
"Hmph! That lecherous Sea God and I aren't like those beasts."
"The process of becoming a god through faith isn't just about gaining the recognition of those Soul Masters and commoners, but also about gaining the approval of this world."
"It's about having the world's will willingly entrust us with a portion of its power, forming a divine ring, and thus ascending to the position of god." "
This approach not only lightens the burden on the world's will but is also a beneficial act that improves and perfects the world."
"However, the drawbacks are also obvious. Gods are merely beings who have transcended the level of life; their essence remains human, still possessing emotions and desires."
"No one can achieve absolute fairness and justice. Being able to fulfill one's duties and maintain the stable operation of world order is already considered competent."
The Angel God explained clearly.
Ye Qiu understood perfectly, somewhat engrossed. This was the first time he had learned the profound meaning of becoming a god through faith.
"Then... what's the difference in the path to godhood for those evil Soul Masters?"
"The difference is enormous,"
the Angel God said coldly, his words tinged with pity.
"Their methods only care about the result, not the process!"
"The divine power contains a trace of the world's will
, which can serve as a conduit for communication between heaven and earth." "What they do is use any means necessary to continuously strengthen their power, forcibly stripping away a portion of the authority of heaven and earth through the connection established by that wisp of divine power, merging it into their own bodies to forge a divine ring."
"Gods achieved in this way bring only drawbacks to the world as a whole. They take from heaven and earth, yet remain detached from them; that portion of power is theirs to possess!"
"That portion of authority belongs entirely to the individual god."
"Precisely because of this, their power is less constrained when used, lacking the constraints of heaven and earth, existing outside the rules. This does indeed enhance their individual combat power."
The explanation from the Angel God opened a new world for Ye Qiu.
The way to become a god was actually to be in harmony with heaven and earth.
Becoming a god through faith is simply a mutually beneficial relationship.
He benefits, I benefit.
But becoming a god through force is a selfish way, only seeking the result.
It's like being in a romantic relationship.
One way is to go to great lengths to pursue it, to flex your muscles, and eventually be accepted.
The other way is to directly train your body until you're strong enough to force yourself on someone, achieving your goal in one step.
"So...they slaughter living beings just to extract enough power?"
"That's right, the method they use is probably something like blood sacrifice obtained from Rakshasa,"
the Angel God replied.
Her words were filled with even more compassion; far away across the sea, she had personally witnessed the scene of rivers of blood flowing on the Sun and Moon Continent.
Ye Qiu also fell silent.
He had found the reason why those evil soul masters had such a high drop rate.
They had poured out most of the resources of the Sun and Moon Continent,
only to feed those inhuman beasts.
"Heh, I accidentally said a bit too much. These things should not be discussed,"
the Angel God adjusted her emotions, her words tinged with mockery.
Ye Qiu ignored this not-so-funny joke.
Puzzled, he asked,
"Since the divine realm knows about them, why not quickly exterminate them? Using them as a divine test for the inheritance of angels... wouldn't many lives be lost in the process?"
"Since you know I became a god through faith, don't you understand that gods cannot interfere in the lower realms? Unless an uncontrollable god-level force emerges in the lower realms, everyone tacitly abides by this rule."
The great sun, where the Angel God resided, suddenly began circling around Ye Qiu.
"Besides, I've already been handling the task of eliminating them as a divine test, haven't I? It's just an indirect method. Since they've shown themselves, they're destined to be destroyed!"
"As for the process, we gods can't be babysitters, can we? The affairs of the lower realms are best handled by the people of the lower realms themselves."
"To use that bastard Shura's words," "
In this sick world where the number of soul beasts and humans is unbalanced, and their growth cycles are mismatched,"
"Appropriately annihilating some humans might be a natural stabilization process for the world, beneficial for its stable continuation and development."
The Angel God's words were cruel.
But Ye Qiu understood this explanation.
Hearing the Angel God address the Asura God, he couldn't help but twitch his lips.
The Angel God probably wasn't very popular with the Asura God either.
The Angel God's curses continued.
"If it weren't for that bastard, none of this would have happened."
"He insisted I stole Rakshasa's girl and wanted me to back off. As a result, he angered Rakshasa, and she dragged me to elope."
"!!!"
Ye Qiu's eyes widened, his mouth agape.
What kind of explosive gossip was this? Was he going to be silenced?!
