Chapter 226: Cataclysm

The God's Kingdom of the Mother Goddess of Earth became clear at this moment, devoid of that chilling, blood-colored moonlight.

But this did not mean the situation had improved; just like the state of the Moon, the blood-colored moonlight here had condensed together, becoming even more terrifying.

The Mother Goddess of Earth raised the wooden staff in her hand, intending to strike down, but her hands seemed to be pulled by some force, gradually slowing.

That barrier of life, which resembled a Great Wall, also underwent a mutation.

The wheat, vines, and other plants gathered together on their own, growing eyes and mouths, extending limbs and heads, and turning into a green figure carrying the aura of life.

They possessed their own lives and their own consciousness, no longer willing to be controlled by the Mother Goddess of Earth, but instead wanting to rebel and erode the Mother Goddess of Earth!

This green figure was extremely similar in external appearance to the Mother Goddess of Earth; the only difference was perhaps that pair of eyes.

The eyes of the Mother Goddess of Earth were filled with the tenderness of life and motherhood, while the eyes of that green figure held endless indifference and madness!

A blood-colored moon rose behind the green figure, and it walked toward the Mother Goddess of Earth, carrying intense Corruption.

"Seal!"

Within the Astral World, a voice ignored all Rules and echoed across the vast, endless Astral World.

A Dream Ocean appeared in the void of the Astral World, spreading majestically across the Original Barrier.

If the Authorities of all the True Gods before were ripples on a lake, then this Dream Ocean was a giant wave on the sea.

The giant wave covered the Original Barrier, as if providing support to the barrier.

Within this giant wave, the power of five Authorities was particularly obvious and exceptionally prominent.

They were the blazing Lightning and Storm, the Sun radiating terrifying light and heat, the Shadow cross supporting heaven and earth, the Dragon swimming within illusory minds, and the brass-colored eye flickering with faint light.

These were the five major Pathways related to "Omniscient and Omnipotent."

Under the forced integration of the power of the "Dream" Authority, these Pathways seemed to have undergone a certain qualitative change, being pushed up to the level of a "Quasi-Old One."

And this level transcended Sequence, faintly resonating with the Astral World.

Their power strengthened the Astral World barrier!

"Execute!"

A golden stream of light shot out from the God's Kingdom of the Mother Goddess of Earth, piercing through the vast void of the Astral World.

The green figure composed of many wheat vines and creepers faltered in its steps, its illusory face carrying a certain astonishment, and on its forehead, there was a fist-sized round hole.

This round hole was transparent from front to back, and it also pierced through the red moon hanging behind the green figure.

Chumen walked out from the Shenshen of the Mother Goddess of Earth, holding the Dream Book in his left hand and the returned Spear of Fate in his right.

Just a moment ago, he had thrown the Spear of Fate in the Life Temple, executing the entire monster condensed from the "Life" and "Moon" Authorities.

"Keep this thing." Chumen glanced at the corpse solidified in place, his voice ringing in the mind of the Mother Goddess of Earth.

"It might be of some help for you to master the 'Mother Nest'."

The Mother Goddess of Earth nodded imperceptibly.

And Chumen also stepped out onto the Original Barrier, but the moment he walked out from the void, his pupils suddenly constricted.

The Moon had returned to its blood color, but that scarlet figure had already arrived before the Original Barrier, separated from Chumen by no more than the distance of a Spear of Fate!

The crimson tide crashed against the Original Barrier, while the Dream Ocean maintained it.

In this way, Chumen reached a stalemate with this "Fallen Mother Goddess."

"Dream!"

An eerie, mad voice came from the mouth of the scarlet figure; most of the power was blocked by the Original Barrier, while a small portion fell into the Dream Ocean.

Sss!

The two powers annihilated each other, and several wisps of blood-colored moonlight were submerged by the Dream Phosphor.

"..." Chumen did not speak, merely holding the Dream Book in his hand, while the Spear of Fate in his other hand tapped lightly against the Original Barrier in front, pointing directly at the head of the scarlet figure.

Time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The attacks of the Outer Gods slowed down, and the various gods also quietly watched this silent confrontation.

"My main body is being held back and cannot come over." In the Saint Selena Church, Chumen suddenly said to Amanises beside him.

This was the first time that one on the Moon had come outside the barrier to pressure the gods within.

Even Chumen could not leave the Astral World.

"The two Pillars have a certain tacit understanding." Amanises speculated.

"No, actually there are three." Chumen looked toward the direction of the Forsaken Land of the Gods.

"The Giant King's Court?!" Amanises's eyes flickered slightly, thinking of something.

"Just a moment ago, when I was confronting the 'Fallen Mother Goddess,' the First Blasphemy Slate had some movement."

Back when the Creator was killed in the Third Epoch, Chumen used the "Authority of Reality" to forcibly drag Sasriel into the battlefield, letting him become a god at the very last moment.

The situation was urgent at that time, and also because he feared the slate formed from the corpse of "God" would cause trouble, Chumen ignored that thing; now it seemed he was right.

"Three..." Amanises fell into silence.

This was definitely the most terrifying combination in the universe, the ultimate form of the Dream Council; once their wills were unified, the entire universe would submit.

"Adam will handle the matters over there; let us focus on this side first."

Chumen refocused his gaze on "Sefirah Castle."

The surging of that Grey Fog had reached its limit; Dream Phosphor flickered in Chumen's pupils, as if he had seen through that layer of Grey Fog, seeing that light gate composed of writhing insects and tentacles.

Sss... With a light hum, the light cocoon hanging on the cyan-black light gate of "Sefirah Castle" cracked open.

Chumen's eyes lit up, and Amanises was also ready at any time to deal with various sudden situations.

But that rolling Grey Fog did not stop there!

Suddenly, Chumen's Spirituality was triggered, and a scene appeared before his eyes.

It was a scene occurring in the innermost part of "Sefirah Castle," making Chumen gasp.

Because at this moment, the light cocoons cracking on "Sefirah Castle" were not just one, but all of them!

"Damn it!" Even after thousands of years of self-cultivation, Chumen was still shocked by the scene before him.

An unknown number of light cocoons split open at the same moment, and all the souls began to awaken at the same time, about to be cast into the Real World.

"What is going on?!" Amanises also sensed that something was wrong.

"It's not one, it's all of them; all of the 'Lord of the Mysteries' resurrection contingencies have been deployed!"

Chumen connected his spirit with Amanises and transmitted that scene to her.

"Furthermore, that last portion of the 'Attendant of Mysteries' did not come down with them!"

Chumen furrowed his brows; this was absolutely the worst-case scenario.

"Secure the nodes we planned first!" Amanises said decisively.

And Chumen was already doing so; without affecting his main body's standoff with the "Mother Tree of Desire", he utilized the two Authorities of "Imagination" and "Dream" to the maximum extent.

Hum!

And at this very moment, the gates of "Sefirah Castle" swung wide open.
