Chapter 457

The Feathered Serpent God still died.

Although Wu Pifu didn't directly beat it to death, he used dark energy when he pinched the Feathered Serpent God's three-inch position. He was aiming to kill the god, so he didn't hold back at all. The Feathered Serpent God finally died.

The main bodies of these gods were flesh and blood lives, different from clones. Clones had the characteristic of self-healing relying on extraordinary energy, but the main body did not. The result was naturally the total annihilation of all five, all beaten to death on the spot by Wu Pifu.

Samara had a helpless expression, while Wu Pifu had an innocent expression.

"But this really can't be blamed on me. I thought the so-called ascending to god was that everyone could do it, as long as you beat those gods to death, and then command enough territory and life. Who told you to speak unclearly." Wu Pifu complained.

Samara took a few deep breaths and lowered his head: "Yes, it's me who didn't explain clearly. But there is still a remedy. Since the city-state gods are all dead, let's find the wild gods around. It's just that the gods found this way will be much weaker. When we fight other city-states or gods, we will naturally..."

Speaking of this, Samara was stunned for a moment. He looked at Wu Pifu, while Wu Pifu continued to eat and drink innocently.

"... I'm really stupid, I'm really stupid!"

Samara stood up and walked around. He said excitedly: "I'm really stupid, I'm really..."

"Alright, I know, you're really stupid, and then?" Wu Pifu couldn't help interrupting Samara's spellcasting.

Samara was choked again, but he immediately said excitedly: "With you, we don't have to consider the strength or attributes of gods at all. Just choose the most suitable god. Even wild gods are fine, and if the attributes are suitable, even those spiritual things in the wild can be shaped into gods!"

"Tell me about the attributes of gods." Beelzebub suddenly said.

"Yes, yes, gods..." Samara was about to speak, but immediately stared at the big fly that made the sound.

After waiting for a few seconds, Samara tidied up his expression management and continued: "In general, gods are divided into three categories: totem spirits, animal spirits, and humanoid spirits. Their respective characteristics are: totem spirits have the largest divine domain, the strongest divine domain strength, and the most functionality. At the same time, totem spirits are mostly gentle. The disadvantage is that their combat power is the weakest, movement is inconvenient, and the clones produced through the divine domain are basically only equipped with totem functions, almost unable to be used for any combat. Most of their main bodies are rocks, statues, trees, etc. with symbolic significance."

"Animal spirits have the second divine domain, the second divine domain strength, and the second functionality. Their temperament is usually extremely brutal, and they have huge requirements for blood sacrifice. In addition to belief, they need blood sacrifice to maintain their basic rationality, and they will also go berserk and swallow believers from time to time. But the benefit is that their combat power is the most powerful. Whether it is the main body or the clone, the combat power is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. Most of their main bodies are mutated animals or monster images."

"Humanoid spirits have the weakest divine domain, the weakest divine domain strength, and the least functionality. But humanoid spirits can communicate, but their thinking is usually different from normal people, and their thoughts are full of various distortions and chaos. They themselves also carry distortion and corrosion characteristics. Intelligent lives that have been in contact with them for a long time will be transformed into 'dependents', and their life forms will completely change, turning into non-human and non-life forms. And the combat power of humanoid spirits is high and low, the highest is even stronger than animal spirits, and humanoid spirits often possess incredible unique skills, such as legendary engineering, super mechanics, mythical alchemy, etc., far beyond what mortals think. And most of their main bodies are mutated humanoid states."

Masara introduced the different characteristics of the three types of gods, and then he continued: "Because of these characteristics, some large intelligent life gathering places in the wild are mostly totem spirits, city-state areas are mostly animal spirits, and as for the kingdoms, the three kingdoms I have traveled to are one animal spirit and two humanoid spirits."

Beelzebub thought for a few seconds after listening to the introduction and said: "Because immediate combat power is more important under the kingdom-level regime. In battles of hundreds or even one or two thousand people, the god's main body occupies the largest share. If there is no god's help, even if the divine domain is powerful, it will still be crushed by the opponent's god. And at the kingdom level, a god that can communicate, even if its thinking is distorted and chaotic, still has an overwhelming advantage. A kingdom can arm ten thousand elite troops. Under the blessing of the divine domain, even if the enemy's god's main body attacks, the army can resist or even counter-kill. And a god that can communicate is crucial to the stability of the regime, right?"

Masara praised: "Yes, that's exactly it. But even for a kingdom, gods are still needed to participate in the war during key battles, so they still cannot abandon the god's own combat power. According to my deduction, unless there are more than five kingdom territories, one can recruit about 100,000 troops at one time, and the country is politically and harmoniously stable. Only in this case can a totem god be established. Otherwise, in the various stages I deduced, animal gods are the strongest in the city-state, humanoid gods are the strongest in the kingdom, and totem gods are the strongest in the empire."

Then Samara looked at Wu Pifu and said: "I was stupid before. Although I knew the Saint's combat power was unparalleled and was the initial descender, I still didn't come to my senses. My head was still thinking about finding a slightly gentler animal god, but there is no need for that at all. As long as the Saint's combat power is the bottom line, we can completely find a totem god. Its temperament is gentle, its divine domain functionality is strong, and it will not forcibly require blood sacrifice. This can completely allow us to benefit from it without being harmed by it!"

Beelzebub agreed: "That is to find wild gods... Still need to screen carefully. I found that there is special domain information in this divine domain. Under the long-term erosion of the divine domain, it is very likely that negative symptoms will appear."

Samara immediately agreed: "Yes, I also found this clue. I specifically did some experiments in this regard, recorded the mental and physical changes of a large number of people affected by the divine domain..."

For the next ten minutes or so, Beelzebub and Samara put Wu Pifu aside, and the fly and the man chatted very happily.

Wu Pifu had a "==" expression on his face, eating and drinking constantly. Anyway, these things were not important. Since someone handled it, he didn't have to worry about it. It was better to eat more and then quickly recover his own strength.

At this time, Yaoyao, who had been on the dining table, suddenly lowered her head and said: "If you are looking for a totem god... then what do you think of the Nature Pure God?"

Beelzebub and Samara, who were discussing, looked at her. Yaoyao was a bit embarrassed. Her head was lowered even lower. She whispered: "The Nature Pure God is the totem god in the forest where I live. She has a very gentle temperament and will never harm any life. The main body is a huge tree, and a spring eye gushes out from under the tree roots. This spring water has purification effects, which can help my relatives resist their pain."

Hearing this, Samara thought carefully. He said while thinking: "A plant-type totem god? It's not rare. It is said that some plant-type totem gods have certain combat power, such as being able to fight with plant vines, or fighting by turning into a tree man for a short time. Describe the characteristics of the totem god you believe in carefully."

Yaoyao was suddenly stuttering. How could she describe these? The reason why she proposed the Nature Pure God in the forest was entirely because she didn't want to be separated from Wu Pifu who "deeply loved" her. If she really wanted to describe the characteristics, she could only say one purification spring water function.

But fortunately, Samara was a standard man of action. After Yaoyao said the purification spring water characteristic, he was already quite moved. Although Yaoyao couldn't say why, he decided to act immediately. He ordered personnel to prepare carriages on the spot, and then took him and Wu Pifu, the three small animals, several priests in the city, two mages, and the accompanying hundreds of soldiers and servants, and immediately went to the Witch Forest direction.

Along the way, Samara also introduced the situation of the Witch Forest to Wu Pifu.

"After I became the ruler, I have been determined to lead the people here to rise, and want to finally achieve the Ascend to the God Throne and break away from this world, and go to the real world to see. So besides building the city and annexing the other six city-states, I have always used expulsion or annihilation methods for the wild gods around."

Samara looked out the carriage window and sighed: "Land produces food, and food is the foundation of human survival and reproduction. So expelling the wild gods around is imperative. And the Nature Pure God in this forest has been kept until now. On the one hand, the forest is not easy to develop. On the other hand, this Nature Pure God is a totem god and almost never actively expands its power. But I still sent personnel to attack this forest, and the reason is the witches living in this forest."

Yaoyao sat beside Wu Pifu and immediately said indignantly: "My relatives and I have lived quietly in the forest and have never harmed anyone. Why are you people outside the forest so cruel and warlike? You suddenly came to raid us, and even let several of my relatives be captured and commit suicide. You are simply demons!"

Samara's expression didn't change at all. He shook his head slightly: "Your relatives are not as harmless as you see... Since I took office, at least thirty men in the villages around the forest have disappeared. Leaving aside being killed by wild beasts or accidental deaths such as stepping into swamps, I can be sure that at least twenty men were killed by forest witches. I don't know exactly how they were killed, but this definitely has something to do with the forest witches!"

Yaoyao immediately wanted to refute, but she seemed to think of something, her face was uncertain, and slowly lowered her head again.

Samara looked at Yaoyao: "There were no wild gods in this forest at first. The Nature Pure God you mentioned was a spiritual thing in the forest at first, and it did have certain purification characteristics. Villagers in the surrounding villages, if anyone had a headache or fever, or was poisoned by wild vegetables and mushrooms, would go to the forest to seek spring water. This spring water had detoxification characteristics, but it was not a wild god and had no divine domain... When there was a record, it was about twenty years ago. The city-state priest recorded the unfolding of the divine domain in the direction of the forest. From that time on, this spiritual thing turned into a totem god. In other words..."

"You and your relatives arrived in this forest twenty years ago. You are outsiders, right?"

Yaoyao gritted her teeth and didn't speak. Samara still didn't care, just continued: "I have traveled to the surrounding city-states, the three kingdoms, and have never seen a race like you witches, with different forms, but all with bone-deep charm, good at using god power, good at long-range attacks, and at the same time will take away men, but do not commit any crimes against women... Where do you come from? And what race are you?"

Yaoyao couldn't speak. Wu Pifu was also silent at this time. On the contrary, Beelzebub said "Eh", but didn't say why.

The carriage fell into silence. Samara said after a while: "But it doesn't matter. If we choose the Nature Pure God as the god we believe in, then the Nature Pure God will naturally move to the city-state temple. This has no objection. And you... If you want to continue to believe in the Nature Pure God, you also need to move to the city-state. If you want to change your belief, then leave by yourself and choose the god you want to choose. Naturally, it has nothing to do with us, so that's it."

The team continued to move forward. Yaoyao was still silent. Seeing the distance to the forest getting closer and closer, Yaoyao suddenly said: "We... come from far away, from... the Tower of Lust."

Samara heard this and exhaled: "Sure enough, as expected. You are exactly the same as the man-made succubus I saw in ancient books. Sure enough... you are not from the divine domain."

After speaking, Samara explained to Wu Pifu: "Saint, didn't I mention the difference between the real world and here before? This world is extremely vast. The city-states and three kingdoms I know don't even count as a corner of this world. They can only be said to be a drop in the ocean. Countless fragments from the real world fall into this world and turn into land. And except for the initial descenders who possess extraordinary power, their descendants and their extraordinary knowledge inheritors all cannot use extraordinary power. And the area we are in is to collect belief and blood sacrifice with spiritual things, and obtain extraordinary power through the sublimation of spiritual things into gods. Whether it is priests or mages, they all use power based on this."

"But outside of this, it is said that there are many ways to use extraordinary power. And I saw the description of the Seven Towers territory in ancient books. They are the Seven Towers of Pride, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, Greed, Gluttony, and Lust. That world has no gods. Intelligent lives obtain extraordinary power through the Seven Towers, and at the same time capture other intelligent lives and stuff them into the Seven Towers, transforming them into the source of their extraordinary power. Because it was too terrifying and brutal, it was jointly suppressed by the forces of many worlds. I didn't expect that there are still remnants of Seven Tower transformed lives here..."

"Ah!"

Beelzebub suddenly said "Ah". She immediately said anxiously: "Wu Pifu, I know what place this is. I remember it. This is the Lost Lands!"

"When the Heavenly Court was still awake, it united many roots, united the demon race of the real world that was falling at that time, and formed an experimental place through partial control of the source, and was called by the Heavenly Court..."

"Ten Thousand Transformations Refining World Heaven!"
