Chapter 321: The Verdict (Extra update, please subscribe! Monthly tickets!)

In the Spirit World sky, half pitch-black and half pure white.

The original master of this Spirit World region—the 'Son of Dawn'—wished he could shrink into a ball, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire of the two warring Sovereigns.

Even though he was once an offspring of 'Dawn', after failing to be born into the Mortal World, he had changed his path and was no longer the 'Son of Dawn'.

But a God-Spawn! Or rather... the 'Child of Misfortune'!

'Mother of Night' against 'Dawn'!

'Fallen Corona' against 'Lord of Hidden Corpses'!

Two Sovereigns against two Sovereigns; normally, it should take a long time to determine a victor.

The struggles of such existences often transcend the limits of Time Sequence.

But this time is different!

'Mother of Night' has been backstabbed by the 'Sun King's Spear'; presumably, a victor will soon be decided against 'Dawn'.

By then, the two Sovereigns will still be able to descend to the top of the Pyramid to personally bestow blessings upon the 'God of Suffering'.

The 'God of Suffering' schemed against several Sovereigns, finally ascending to the peak of a great miracle in a mortal body, consuming Immortality, and is about to knock on the door of Changsheng!

"No! I do not agree!"

'Back then, I consumed over two years of accumulated Secret Source Power, transforming it into the force to leverage the Spirit World, condensing it into a Fate.'

And once he becomes a 'Worldly Immortal', he can hole up in the Mortal World and participate in the power struggles at the Sovereign level!

The 'God of Suffering', who had been bowing his head while merging with the immortal characteristic to begin his promotion, suddenly looked up.

He saw a handsome young man wearing complex and gorgeous aristocratic formal wear, with eyes like purple gemstones, sitting upon the Obsidian Throne that belonged to 'Dawn'.

'Although 'Secret Source Power' is the ancestor of all Spirituality and can accomplish incredible miracles...'

'The promotion of a High-Level Extraordinary requires the response of the Spirit World... Promoting to 'Immortal' is already difficult and has a certain failure rate; if the disadvantages are infinitely magnified, there is naturally only one outcome: failure and death!'

At least... that is what the 'God of Suffering' himself thinks.

At this moment, the other party looks at him as if he were an ant!

This is a scene that would make all "Crowns" intoxicated.

'It is just a pity that the current Sovereigns have become rational; even if I issue another Fate... whether they would believe it is another matter.'

"You..."

Aaron, having arrived at the top of the Pyramid in the form of an 'Evil Spirit', slowly stood up, grasped the broken half of the 'Sun King's Spear', and had a thousand thoughts in his mind.

The former came from the 'Blood of Dawn', while the latter came from the 'Mother of Night'!

'Mother of Night' is the 'Darkness' incarnation of the 【Mother Tree of Flesh and Blood】; her blood contains the Immortality of 'Darkness'!

The two strands of intertwined fresh blood fused together, turning into a drop of something pure and inexplicable!

With the aid of the Pyramid and the Sovereigns' blessings, the 'God of Suffering' stripped from the 'Sun King's Spear' a strand of immortal characteristic that fused 'Light' and 'Darkness', perfectly compatible with his own nature!

This is also the main material for his promotion to 'Immortal'!

The blood of a Sovereign contains terrifying Spirituality.

With a bit of excitement and surging emotion, the 'God of Suffering' respectfully kowtowed toward the two seats, as if the incarnations of the two Sovereigns were sitting there.

And 'Fallen Corona' had long since secretly bestowed blessings upon him.

The other party had his right leg leisurely crossed over his left, his left arm resting on the throne's armrest, his left hand supporting his cheek, as if he were a high and mighty king looking down upon a lowly servant!

More crucially, the 'God of Suffering' also recognizes this 'Evil Spirit'!

He can clearly recall the place where the 'Magician' Kobo Phil died—that strange Evil Spirit he had killed casually, treated like an ant, and then watched easily revive and escape!

At that time, he looked at the other party as if they were an ant.

On the Pyramid, above the Obsidian Throne.

Even though a strand had been stripped from each, several drops of bright red blood remained on the spear tip, as if they had just fallen from a wound.

'NO!!!'

The 'God of Suffering' chanted loudly in the Spirit World Language, and complex Mysterious patterns lit up one after another on the Pyramid.

"My Lord... please allow me to open the Seventh Primordial Substance and promote to 'Immortal'!"

Above them, hymns and emblems praising 'Dawn' and 'Fallen Corona' were also engraved.

'Now, it has been less than a year since I woke up, and I have consumed a lot, leaving only an accumulation barely equivalent to three months.'

Aaron, manipulating the Spirit Body of 'Aokelaier', silently watched the 'God of Suffering' launch a sprint toward the Seventh Primordial Substance, the entire Pyramid trembling, and then the process of failure.

The 'God of Suffering' looked up, saw the pitch-black night sky still occupying half the space, his expression became slightly grave, but he did not hesitate, holding high the broken 'Sun King's Spear'.

As this voice, which sounded like a verdict, rang out, the 'God of Suffering' immediately felt the 'Immortal Gate' that was about to shatter become indestructible, and furthermore, it was rapidly moving away from him!

What are the blessings of Sovereigns compared to the entire Spirit World?

Aaron, at the cost of consuming a large amount of 'Secret Source Power', cut off the 'God of Suffering's' hope for a successful promotion!

'But... this can still leverage the entire Spirit World to provide a response!'

But he had already involuntarily begun his advancement; his body dissipated, turning into black and white, merging with the entire Pyramid.

The 'God of Suffering' only felt that the scene he saw was so absurd; not only was it unbelievable, it was even somewhat ridiculous.

Having obtained the blessings of two Sovereigns, the 'God of Suffering' could not imagine any possibility of his breakthrough failing.

His thinking diverged infinitely, as if he saw an incomparably magnificent 'Immortal Gate' representing Changsheng!

The 'God of Suffering's' thinking, Spirituality, emotions... everything he was, turned into an incomparable tide, launching an assault against that legendary gateway!

Just at this moment, a cold voice echoed in his ears: "The 'God of Suffering's' advancement will fail, and he himself will die directly due to the Backlash!"

This Pyramid was already filled with the blessings of 'Dawn' and 'Fallen Corona'.

And on the flat top of the Pyramid, two Obsidian chairs were placed side by side.

'Dawn' is the radiance from just a moment ago.

From the tip of the spear, two strands of blood, constantly entwining, dripped down and suddenly changed in mid-air; one was pure white, the other pitch black.

He walked step by step, enduring pain like a thousand cuts, and by the time he ascended to the top of the Pyramid, the "Red" within his body had completely transformed into Radiance.

At the moment his consciousness completely sank into nothingness, what the "God of Suffering" recalled last was still that figure sitting atop the Obsidian Throne, and the other's faint, mocking smile.

A massive Ritual Array emerged, with the Sun King's Broken Spear in his hand at its center.

"But to have created such a mysterious world and system after only accumulating for a dozen years or so, it is still somewhat abnormal..."

"Perhaps the 'Secret Source Power' I initially accumulated for a dozen years was merely a key; it unlocked the 'Mysterious' stored within the 'Secret Source'—which had been imprisoned and accumulated for who knows how many tens of thousands of years—and then infected the Scarlet Sun, thus creating everything?"
