Transforming Succubus: Almost Doomsday

And finally, there is the God of Gluttony, the counterpart to the old god of myriad beasts and vitality.

By devouring myriad beasts, he gained power, but in the end, he was defeated by the god of myriad beasts and vitality.

Overall, all these new gods failed in their counterparts.

Not a single new god succeeded in a one-on-one challenge against an old god.

But—

The new gods didn't need to face them one-on-one.

The inevitable result was the defeat of the old gods, so they had no choice but to initiate the "Era of Rules".

After a brief look at the information on the statues, Zhou Baiyu had already guessed.

The last statue—the Cycle God—its believers must be the root cause of this cycle's contamination.

This god also had impressive battle achievements, actually countering the god of space and time.

As for the outcome, one could imagine, the strength of the strongest old god was not something any new god could match.

But he was placed in the grand hall of the Pantheon because he distinguished himself in the war of the gods.

Using the power of cycles and repetition, he trapped the god of space and time, though only for a brief time.

Five statues, three believers, Zhou Baiyu felt something was amiss.

He didn't hide anything:

"The Cycle God... could it be that person...?"

His tone was full of surprise, pure surprise, showing neither sadness nor joy.

The ancient voice once again offered its interpretation of "justice":

"We will remember Akler, his sacrifice, along with my seal, brought about an era without Precursors or Pure Walkers."

"The great cycle will bring us a peaceful future. There is no need to mourn for Akler, now, please present your divine artifact, my child. I hope you can be honest, that you can trust us."

Box's eyes carried a hint of pity, and it must be said, that ancient sage-like appearance, full of compassion, was very endearing.

But correspondingly, Zhou Baiyu was even more appealing to them.

By now, Zhou Baiyu had a clear understanding—

The Pantheon had used a certain ritual, sealing away the Precursors and Pure Walkers of the Third Realm through a method of repetition and cycling.

Now, out of the five highest leaders, only three remained...

Well, the odds had shifted from sixty-forty to seventy-thirty. If the three joined forces, in seven days, it would be the end of his own seven cycles of mourning at seventy-thirty.

Sensing the urgency in Box's words, Zhou Baiyu knew he needed to stay calm.

First, he had to reassure Box, and secondly, during the conversation, he needed to extract some information.

Finally, he had to find the source of the contamination.

So, Zhou Baiyu presented the divine artifact "Eternal Laughter," and he knelt down with great savvy:

"My lord, I believe I have begun to understand what has happened. I am willing to contribute my strength to you. This divine artifact seems beyond Karlando's fortune to enjoy, so I hope you can become its new master."

Box nodded, clearly pleased with this response.

Lechter and Barn knew that the divine artifact was likely to end up in Box's hands.

Feeling the aura emanating from the divine artifact, Box had no doubts because it was indeed a genuine divine artifact.

Zhou Baiyu also said:

"This thing is difficult to handle, I had quite a challenge finding it. My lord, to me, it doesn't matter who I deal with, Karlando is a lord, and so are you three. After all, that place doesn't just have this one divine artifact."

First, he had to raise his own value.

Zhou Baiyu's words indicated that he knew not just the whereabouts of a single divine artifact but potentially several divine artifacts.

This statement made Lechter and Barn, who were somewhat disappointed, lift their heads.
