Chapter 1075: Pantheon (7200 7400 Supplement)

Aaron held an oak leaf.

Suddenly, a flash of Divinity shone in his eyes.

Then, a portion of his consciousness rose infinitely, higher and higher... seeing a hall composed of infinite radiance!

——The Pantheon!

Just by seeing that magnificent hall, its name automatically surfaced in Aaron's heart.

This was the legendary place where the gods gathered to deliberate!

"However... the gods have long been cast out of their Divine Kingdoms, why can it still be used?"

Aaron arrived at the gate of the Pantheon and saw the mark representing 'Pain'.

The Druid looked at the people preparing for the deification Ritual and smiled: "At the time of the final decisive battle, we will need your power... by then, I hope you can appear in a stronger form!"

"Yes, and, I hope you accept this!"

Aaron nodded to signal, yet Wendy and the others seemed to have no perception of His arrival at all.

"I have bad luck, I'm in the Material Plane!" Aaron spread his hands, clearly not believing her.

Ao was once the pan-consciousness of the Crystal Wall System, and his deductions of the future could even rival 【Vairocana】!

The next moment, Aaron felt a vast consciousness descend with a boom!

That was not the pan-consciousness of any single plane, but the collective pan-consciousness of all planes in the Crystal Wall System!

He wanted to ascend directly to 【Medium Divine Power】, or even 【Great Divine Power】, during the deification Ritual!

Only in this way would he be qualified to Rend the throne of 【Vairocana】!

Many gods roared in unison, and the powerful ripples of Divine Power caused the Pantheon to shake slightly.

The Weave Goddess was a young girl wearing mage robes with hair of a brilliant purple; she looked at Aaron and nodded slightly.

Aaron opened his eyes: "Finally... is it about to begin?"

"Very good... we can barely cope with the enemy's seven Buddhas, and even maintain an advantage."

"Could it be... that Overgod—Ao?"

"There are too many Demons; we only need that Demon Governor to take action to hold off that 【Great Divine Power】 Lord of Hell..."

This was also a layer of Ritual and trial.

"Besides this, the Secret Teachings still have some die-hard believers, the army in the Material Plane... the Northern Coalition..."

Watching Ao appear, Aaron suddenly had an epiphany in his heart.

'Father of Oaks' looked toward Aaron's position, which had become empty: "God of Gimo and Stories, thank you for everything you did in the Underworld! Although we couldn't rescue the Master of War, Siss has already told me of the great merit you established in rescuing the Lady of the Weave!"

In other words, now was the best time.

The ancient gate creaked and slowly opened, and infinite light enveloped Aaron.

With a thought, a layer of mist automatically appeared, obscuring his figure, and then... he pushed open the gate of the Pantheon.

At this time, these people were preparing for his deification Ritual.

The lady in the black gauze dress looked at Aaron, covering half her cheek with a fan made of black swan feathers, her tone filled with surprise: "Another new god?"

Aaron was thoughtful.

"God of Gimo and Stories?"

Whoosh!

'However, among the gods of the Secret Teachings, there are only seven 【Great Divine Power】 beings, hmm... the gods also have the support of the Mind Flayer Empire from the Astral Plane; the "Neutron Star Golem" and "Main Starship" they created are also extremely powerful aids!'

This was also one of the conditions for both sides to be able to fight.

Their positions were all incredibly close to the core of the Pantheon, with that of the 'Father of Oaks' being especially large.

Divine Duty—War!

"Gimo and stories are ultimately too weak, but if it were War, it would be different... By utilizing this great decisive battle, a deity who can master War could even extract Original Force directly from the Chaos Sea and become a 【Great Divine Power】 without any problem!"

That power, which surpassed 【Great Divine Power】, instantly made all the gods bow their heads: "Your Majesty Ao..."

"Father of Oaks! You have come!"

If one were not a true god, it would be impossible to enter the Pantheon at all!

And on another throne sat a lady draped in black light gauze, her posture elegant.

Aaron replied casually, knowing this lady was the 'God of Twilight and Vampires', who once loved to roam the Material Plane.

"I have already made the specific arrangements; this is a plan formulated jointly after discussing with the brain of the Mind Flayer Empire..."

Plus a Demon Governor who can fight a 【Great Divine Power】, it is enough to stir up the entire Crystal Wall System!

Consuming the two cards of the devils and the Mind Flayer Empire to hold off the Demon Army is already quite cost-effective.

A god raised an objection.

According to his calculations, once he grasped the 'War' Divine Duty during his ascension, he would have a 100% certainty of ascending to 【Medium Divine Power】, and a 50% certainty of entering 【Great Divine Power】!

"No! We need certainty! And... a suitable timing; this is what Ao told me."

But the believers of two villages... to be honest, it was truly too few.

After the gods left one by one, the Pantheon appeared even more silent and vast.

Aaron scanned the area and found that the vast majority of 【Lesser Divine Power】 and 【Weak Divine Power】 beings had left, and even more than half of the 【Medium Divine Power】 beings had departed.

But at this moment, there was no other way.

Since 'merging with the Taoism', all emotions had already vanished; one could only operate the laws of the Crystal Wall System itself and could not directly interfere with the world!

But the arrival of 【Vairocana】 changed all of this!

The opponent was also a 【Great Divine Power】, yet had not 'merged with the Taoism', and was instead destroying everything.

'So that's how it is...'

"Too bad, I drew the battle in the Material Plane!"

Currently, apart from the North, most of the Material Plane is ruled by the gods of the Secret Teachings; once they have also accumulated enough faith and souls, the Divine War will be even harder to fight.

He is almost the most powerful 【Greater Divine Power】 in existence: "Thanks to the efforts of the adventurers, we have successfully resurrected the Weave Goddess... Now is the time when the Coalition's combat strength is at its peak; the moment for the decisive battle has arrived!"

Finally, there is a goddess situated in a corner of the region!

An invisible Weave seems to be interacting with the surrounding void with her as the center at every moment.

Of course, Aaron also knows that the gods of the Secret Teachings are not that weak.

This lady seems to have traveled in the Material Plane, perhaps even mastering relevant Divine Duties, and may even know of Aaron's dark history.

"In this battle, we must completely exterminate 【Vairocana】 and his subordinate gods! They are the ultimate obstacle to Natural Sciences!"

The Far North Wasteland.

Or rather, it cannot be strictly calculated by the strength of Godhood, such as 【Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva】!

Moreover, the gods of the Crystal Wall System will only become weaker and weaker, because most of them are gods of faith and must rely on the power of faith from the Material Plane to survive.

【Father of Oaks】 speaks slowly.

"Divine War!"

He walks out of the house and sees Wendy.

Aaron looks ahead.

"You are all core members," a 【Medium Divine Power】 speaks; he is the 'God of Intrigue and Deception': "Then... regarding the specific information of this Divine War, everyone can offer their opinions..."

Goddesses are all a group of very cunning creatures, and most have very sordid private lives; if you believe them, you lose...

Clearly, she is very grateful to Aaron in her heart and has already accepted this favor.

"Hm?"

Although the gods had long guessed it, they still couldn't help but stir slightly upon hearing the definitive decision.

"Kill the outsiders!"

The most powerful extraordinary legion of the Secret Teachings is undoubtedly the Demon Army!

Among them, the Balors and Mariliths possess Legend-level strength with ease, and some Demon Lords even possess virtual Godhood!

——【Weave Goddess】!

Her state is slightly better than the Master of War; she is already a 【Greater Divine Power】, just still exceptionally Weakness.

If Aaron can survive until after the war, and they are victorious, he could obtain the protection of a 【Greater Divine Power】.

The further it goes, the weaker the power of the gods becomes!

"Everyone!"

And this layer of foundation has already been almost completely cut away.

The 'God of Intrigue and Deception' begins to expound on the strength of both sides, comparing them one by one: "Not to mention the gods of the Secret Teachings, their most powerful army is undoubtedly the Demon Army in the Abyss... On this point, that Devil Master in the Nine Hells has already promised us to immediately start the Blood War! Spare no cost to drag down the demons!"

One of the clusters is an extremely powerful Divinity—'Natural Divinity'!

And the other cluster is a Divinity Crystal, carrying an ancient scent.

And as a 【Lesser Divine Power】 and the patron goddess of vampires, she is naturally of the Lawful Evil alignment, leaning toward Neutral Evil.

With the computing power of a deity, no matter how complex the strategic layout or even troop information, it can be simulated in an instant.

The giant deity beside Aaron mumbles a sentence.

In the Material Plane, because gods turned into Saints, many incidents of being killed by natives occurred.

But it does not matter.

Next, the gods continuously exchange consciousness and swap opinions.

A Druid with antlers on his head arrives at Aaron's side, though it is unknown when.

A strong wind blows past.

One seems to be a giant a hundred meters tall, yet can still be accommodated by the divine throne, as if forever located at a subtle relative distance.

A flash occurs in Aaron's hand, and a golden Crystal emerges.

"War... is it not enough?"

"It is I!"

He looks around and discovers two deities sitting there.

This approach, instead, pulls 【Ao】 down from 'merging with the Tao', making it possible to condense a physical form!

This is also the reason why the other party did not take action during the first Saint's Tribulation!

At that time, Ao was still the 'Heavenly Tao' of the Crystal Wall System!

But now, he is an avatar that has withdrawn from the 'Heavenly Tao' and will go to war with the many pests of the Secret Teachings!!!

'Counting the 【Weave Goddess】, there are only 7 【Greater Divine Power】 in total?'

A portion of the gods of the Good alignment stir slightly; they do not want to cooperate with devils.

【Father of Oaks】 hands over two clusters of golden light.

'Although Ao is a 【Great Divine Power】, he has long since transcended, or rather, become the pan-consciousness of the Crystal Wall System... To use a story from my past life, it is like Hongjun, having already "merged with the Tao"!'

Aaron is slightly startled.

"Divine War!"

When it rises slowly, Aaron's figure sits directly upon it.

Aaron takes a Green Leaf that drifts over, his heart stirring slightly.

"But most importantly... what about 【Vairocana】?"

A vast consciousness gathers, turning into a hazy human figure, standing in the center of the Pantheon.

Behind the divine throne, a special Divine Power mark manifests, representing Aaron's 'story' and 'Gimo' Divine Duty!

The scope of this divine throne is not large, only a circle larger than a 【Lesser Divine Power】, placing it in the third tier among the many divine thrones.

The vampire goddess, however, smiled without a word, appearing very Mysterious.

The 'Master of Shadow' slowly opened their mouth to explain.

To be honest, there have been quite a few natives attempting to ascend to godhood during this period!

The invasion of 【Vairocana】 is a danger, but also an opportunity!

The 'Father of Oaks' sent out pieces of Green Leaf, each containing information terrifying to the extreme.

"I did not expect the World of Gods to have withered to such a degree..."

She suddenly looked at Aaron: "I need to go to the Astral Plane to fight, what about you?"

"The oak leaves from before did not mention this at all... Are you all guarding against traitors among the gods?"

After all, as a 【Greater Divine Power】, if they were to use the power of Natural Sciences to conceal themselves, those who could discover them would be few and far between.

The giant beside Aaron was a descendant of a Titan, holding a portion of the land authority left behind after the death of the Earth Mother Goddess; they could be considered a lucky one.

Otherwise, the side of the gods would have been utterly defeated long ago.

All the gods were shocked!

Besides this, there are the four great elemental main gods, representing earth, fire, wind, and water respectively... each occupying a region.

Aaron's gaze moved forward, passing over a group of 【Medium Divine Power】 beings, and saw the region of the 【Greater Divine Power】 beings.

"Regarding that pantheon master—【Vairocana】..." the 'Father of Oaks' said: "Please allow me to introduce to everyone—the Overgod, the Creator God, the 【Great Divine Power】, His Majesty Ao!"

In terms of level, it even exceeds the Abyss Will, because the Abyss is also a part of the Crystal Wall System!

Only the 【Greater Divine Power】 beings remained in their original places.

If this battle could continue for a thousand years, the War Primordial Force might even allow him to become a 【Great Divine Power】!

This is Aaron's plan!

"No... God of Gimorians and Stories, I seem to have heard your name... In the taverns of the North wilderness, your Legendary tales were once everywhere, all originating from a bard!"

The Wild Druid said.

"Yes, I have arrived!"

As well as a 【Greater Divine Power】 who occupies the 'Shadow Plane'—the Master of Shadow!

They hold the 'Shadow' Divine Duty and are the deity worshipped by most wanderers, thieves, master burglars, and rangers; they also control the 'Shadow Plane' and can fully utilize the plane's power within it.

A 【Medium Divine Power】 god of ice and snow asked.

The 'Father of Oaks' let out a roar.

But it does not matter; the gods are naturally able to process this complex information and find their own tasks within it.

Inside the Pantheon, a divine throne slowly rose!

It is located in the camp of the Lawful Evil gods, but it is already extremely close to the border of 'Neutral Evil'.

Boom!

"Therefore... we still need reinforcements from the Mind Flayer Empire to exhaust the demons entirely within the Astral Plane."

He was not assigned any plan, only told to stay for a while after the meeting adjourned.

"'Law and Sun' Divine Duty?" Aaron's pupils shrank slightly.

"Yes," the Wild Druid said: "It comes from an existence older than the Lord of Radiance, belonging to the legacy of the ancient Sun God..."
