Game of the World Tree - Chapter 913

913. Chapter 909: The Eternal Lord

The white-gold light bloomed above the sky, spreading a deeper, heavier, and more magnificent aura than any previous gods. All the fighting gods stopped their actions at the same time.

In the sky and on the ground, both sides of the battle had lost their ability to move, trembling under the vast pressure.

The holy angels and the petitioners were fanatical.

They all leaned over and worshiped in the direction of the light.

The holy light enveloped the world, and countless white feathers fell from the sky.

At this moment, even the sun in the sky seemed to be a little dim, as if worshiping its own king.

Accompanied by the solemn and grand sacred hymns, a tall figure bathed in white-gold light slowly emerged above the sky.

It was a tall and handsome human man.

He had golden hair and golden eyes, and wore a white-gold robe embellished with gold edges and sun patterns. The robe was also embellished with multiple images such as light, order, and thunder.

The ruler of the Eternal Era, the main god of the human pantheon who controls the three major priesthoods of the sun (light), order, and thunder, the Eternal Lord Iteo has descended…

The players stared blankly at the figure bathed in the platinum holy light in the sky.

However, before they could see the other person clearly, they felt their brains buzzing and could not see anything.

If you stand next to them, you will see an extremely terrifying scene.

That is, all the players who looked up at the Eternal Lord had their eyeballs exploded. Those who were weaker even had their heads exploded on the spot and returned to the World Tree…

“Don’t look up at Him! Everyone, don’t look up at Him!”

The players who reacted hurriedly exclaimed.

Don’t look directly at God!

At this moment, this setting that had long been thrown out of the sky by the players because of the soul exemption came into play again.

In front of the World Tree, after seeing this scene, the expressions of several gods who were already familiar with the players changed slightly.

In the world of Segos, mortals cannot look directly at gods without the permission of the true gods.

This is because the soul power of mortals is too weak. When they look directly at the gods, they will not be able to withstand the soul suppression of the gods.

But players are different.

Their souls are not in the world of Segos,

and they can be exempted from soul punishment. Although the gods, including the Red Dragon King Hetos, do not know why the players are exempt, this does not prevent them from discovering this strange trait of the players when communicating with them.

However, now this trait has been invalidated…

This can show one thing, that is, even if the soul suppression is ignored, the power of the Eternal Lord Iteo is strong enough to make mortals unable to bear it just by looking at Him…

At the same time, the heart-pounding divine power fluctuations emanating from this powerful god further confirmed the gods’ speculation.

That vast power, even the Red Dragon King Hetos, whose strength was not much weaker than that of the Platinum Dragon King Reinhard, felt a sense of life and death crisis as if he had seen his natural enemy…

There is no doubt that although they are both true gods, the Eternal Lord Iteo, who has controlled the Eternal Era for thousands of years, ruled hundreds of material planes, and has believers in thousands of planes, has probably left other mythical beings far behind in real strength…

For a moment, the gods standing on the side of the World Tree looked at Iteo with fear.

However, the descending Eternal Lord did not even look at them.

From the moment he descended, his eyes were fixed on the towering World Tree in the Elf Forest.

The platinum-gold light fell with his arrival, and the temperature of the entire Elf Forest was slowly rising.

In the area closest to Iteo, the ground gradually cracked, and the plants that survived the war by chance also withered…

The sun can bring warmth to the world, but when the sun is close enough, it is a disaster.

As the owner of the sun priesthood, the Eternal Lord Iteo is the incarnation of the sun.

His deep eyes swept across the devastated ground, and finally returned to the World Tree.

“Your Majesty Eve, if you don’t take action, the Elf Forest will be completely destroyed.”

The Eternal Lord Iteo smiled slightly. As soon

as the voice fell, a pale golden light bloomed on the World Tree, and a cool power spread around the World Tree.

Under Iteo’s somewhat surprised gaze, the power of the “sun” was constantly suppressed and swallowed, and the devastated land in the war gradually sprouted new green, and new vitality emerged…

Golden photons flew, and soft and warm power poured into the bodies of the players and the supporting coalition.

The injuries on their bodies disappeared quickly, and even some of the cursed power left by looking directly at the Eternal Lord was purified.

“Goddess! It’s the power of the goddess!”

In the Chosen City, the elves and half-elves were excited.

The players were also refreshed, and their eyes looking at the World Tree were full of expectations.

The next moment, golden light bloomed in front of the World Tree, grass sprouted, flowers bloomed, and a sacred and beautiful figure slowly appeared in front of the gods on the World Tree side.

Silver long hair, gorgeous purple eyes, and the iconic natural crown and life scepter.

It was the incarnation of the World Tree, the true god who controlled the three major priesthoods of life, nature and elves – Eve Yggdrasil.

A vast breath of vitality slowly rose, resisting the power of the Lord of Eternity.

“Your Majesty Eve (Your Majesty the Lord God)…”

Seeing Eve appear, the gods saluted one after another.

The Eternal Lord Iteo looked a little surprised. He carefully looked at Eve, who appeared as the incarnation of the true god, and the World Tree behind Eve. He chuckled and said in the ancient language of the ancient gods:

“Your Majesty Eve, your divine power is much stronger than I thought.”

“Thank you for the divine power sent by Your Majesty Iteo. If it weren’t for the war you started, I might not have so much divine power now.”

Eve glanced at Iteo and replied in the same language.

The Eternal Lord laughed, seemingly not hearing the irony in his words.

Then, he looked at Eve meaningfully and narrowed his eyes slightly:

“Haha, I also want to thank you, Your Majesty Eve.”

“If you hadn’t helped weaken my church on the world of Segos and devoured my polluted divine power, perhaps the world of Segos wouldn’t have been unsealed so quickly, and I wouldn’t have been able to free myself from the corruption of faith…”

Is that really the case…

After hearing Iteo’s somewhat arrogant answer, Eve sighed in her heart.

The moment the Eternal Lord Iteo descended, He noticed that the divine power on him seemed to be purer.

When the Eternal Church did not save mankind’s faith, and Iteo’s progress in achieving greatness accelerated, He had a vague premonition.

Later, the meaningless charge launched by the Judgment Knights and the God War Corps deepened Eve’s speculation.

Now that the Eternal Lord had made it clear on the spot, Eve was finally sure that the Eternal Lord was indeed using him to achieve his further goal…

That’s right.

The Eternal Lord Iteo, who had been deeply corrupted by faith when he became the Lord of the Era and could not take the last step, acted like this during this period of time, completely using Eve’s power to get rid of his own corruption!

And now, I’m afraid he has succeeded.

With this thought, Eve’s expression gradually became serious.

His eyes paused on the image pattern on the Eternal Lord’s robe, which was clearer and more real than the last time they met, and his eyes condensed slightly.

Then, his expression suddenly became clear.

“Your Majesty Iteo, I’m afraid it’s more than that. If I’m not mistaken, the human priesthood you dreamed of seems to be condensed successfully.”

Eve said meaningfully after retracting her eyes from the Eternal Lord’s robe.

As soon as these words came out, the gods beside Eve changed their expressions slightly, and their eyes gradually became solemn.

Although they did not know the deeper secrets of the Segos universe, they also knew some fur, or related legends.

One of the things recognized by the gods was that the eternal lord Iteo had been seeking to condense the human priesthood.

And it was rumored that as long as he successfully condensed the human godhood, he would truly have the qualifications to impact greatness.

Many true gods only knew this rumor, but did not know the principle behind it.

However, Eve knew.

Humans are alien species in the Segos world.

If the human godhood can be successfully condensed, then in a sense, it has achieved transcendence against the Segos universe.

At this time, if Iteo uses the power of the origin key he obtained and uses the human godhood as an anchor, it is possible to assimilate with the Segos universe while maintaining his own sanity.

Or… assimilate with the real creator behind the Segos universe and replace him.

And then, it will truly embark on the road to greatness.

And it is more powerful than the king of gods, Neo, and truly achieves transcendent great power!

Thinking of this, Eve’s expression gradually became serious.

His eyes fell on the Lord of Eternity. After thinking for a moment, he said,

“Your Majesty Iteo, I am very curious. Your human godhood has never been able to condense successfully, but now it is suddenly close to perfection… This is really unexpected. Can you explain this to me?”

“Thank you, Your Majesty Eve.”

Iteo smiled slightly.

The holy light flickered behind him, and the divine power surged around him, transforming into pictures.

In the picture, people held high their flags and attacked the nobles’ castles with angry expressions; in the picture, people overturned the statues of the lords and cheered…

It turned out to be a picture of revolution and uprising in the human world!

And if you look more carefully, you will find that the flags waved by the humans in the picture are not the red-bottomed scepter flags symbolizing the Church of Life, but platinum-colored flags with the sun and human images as symbols…

At the same time, if you look closely at the scene in the picture, you will find that the architectural style in the picture is more or less different from the human architecture in the world of Segs, including the clothing.

These pictures… are not pictures from the world of Segs!

Eve’s eyes condensed, and then her heart moved, and she had some enlightenment.

Seeing Eve’s expression, the Lord of Eternity smiled and said,

“It seems that you have also seen it…”

“Yes, this is not the scene of the Segos world, but the scene of other main material planes that I control…”

“For thousands of years, I have been pondering a question, that is, why I have become the Lord of the Era and have taken the human beliefs of the entire Segos Crystal Wall System into my arms, but why I have not been able to condense the human godhood.”

“Later, I finally understood that this is because the human race is different from other intelligent races, and I am also different from the true god who created a certain species.”

“The godhood of an intelligent race includes the race itself, as well as the civilization of the race, and then the history of the race…especially the human race that pays attention to inheritance and culture.”

“And the history of an intelligent race that pays attention to inheritance and progress is constantly flowing and moving forward.”

“As this race becomes more and more powerful, civilization and heritage will also occupy a greater proportion in the race’s godhood. If you want to condense the race’s godhood, you must reflect the guidance and evolution of the gods to the race.”

“In other words… change!”

“However, faith gives intelligent races power, but it also imprisons the thoughts of intelligent races.”

“The stronger the faith, the stronger the confinement, just like a huge sail sailing in the sea, the larger the size, the more difficult it is to turn the direction.”

“However, except for the creator of the race who can ignore the civilization of the race and condense the racial godhood, if you want to rely on faith alone to condense the racial godhood, you must break through the shackles of civilization and history, break through this confinement of thought…”

“And this is exactly the problem that has restricted me for thousands of years.”

“My overly strong faith, while providing me with a strong enough power of faith, will also prevent the possibility of civilization going further, and prevent me from breaking through the shackles and condensing the human godhood.”

“In the past, I couldn’t figure out this problem for a long time, and I was troubled for nearly a thousand years…”

“But now it’s different.”

“Only by breaking the old and the decay can we usher in a new life.”

“Since faith has become a burden, it should be destroyed and rebuilt on the ruins.”

“This is how it should be to condense the godhood of a race with a large population and a prosperous civilization like humans.”

“So, inspired by you, I have imitated your church in various faith planes in the Segs universe and launched uprisings and revolutions.”

“Of course… the one leading the uprising was not your Life Church, but the Reform Church of the Eternal Church – the Eternal Protestant Church.”

“Your Highness Eve, this is the idea you gave me…”

“Thank you, with your inspiration and assistance, I am now only one step away from true greatness.”

The Lord of Eternity, Iteo, said calmly.

As he spoke, a grand aura bloomed behind him, and the whole world changed color.

“Your Highness Eve…”

Iteo looked at Eve, his expression gradually turned proud:

“I can now… give you two choices.”
