The dangers were far too great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Elder God Path, while unimaginably powerful, carried terrifying side effects. One misstep could result in the erasure of consciousness itself—a fate Daniel refused to risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Based on what he had observed so far, he strongly suspected that behind the Elder Gods existed an entity far beyond the level of ordinary divinity—a being greater than god-tier, perhaps even transcending it entirely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Take for instance the Stone Turtle Gulis, the creature he had slain earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its dominion over earth and rock had clearly been derived from a higher Elder God, a being that stood above it as the ultimate source of that element.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel closed his eyes and activated Mental Deduction, allowing endless waves of calculation and logic to unfold through his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He needed clarity—he was facing too many variables, too many intricate crossroads to count.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He chuckled quietly to himself. If I hadn’t learned Mental Deduction back then... how would I even survive the decisions I have to make now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every choice he faced seemed capable of birthing countless outcomes. Each branch of possibility could change the fate of entire worlds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But if—just if—he could open a unique Elder God system tied to the Infinity Domain, perhaps that path wouldn’t be entirely closed to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rubbed his chin thoughtfully.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Infinity Domain... as it stands now, there shouldn’t be an Elder God connected to it. If I choose that route, maybe—just maybe—my consciousness won’t be devoured.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His deductions had revealed an important clue: the reason why so many Elder Gods lost themselves was because of the source of their divine domains.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All gods of the same domain were connected, feeding their faith and essence toward the strongest among them—the primal entity that dominated that field.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In essence, each was sacrificing their independence to the supreme god of that path, willingly or otherwise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That explained why so many who pursued the Elder God route ended up corrupted or assimilated by the source consciousness behind their domain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So then—what was the true relationship between the Elder Gods and the modern pantheon?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And what of the Backworld Gods—what role did they play in this divine hierarchy?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why was it that upon reaching Demigod Rank, every being was drawn or compelled to enter the Backworld?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What secret did the core of the Backworld hide?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Daniel pondered, the more questions he unearthed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps... he should take Kartora’s suggestion seriously after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoughts surged through his mind like a storm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Possibilities, probabilities, paths, dangers—each calculation revealed new uncertainties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He could see the questions clearly, but lacked the information needed to draw any definitive conclusion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then suddenly, an image surfaced within his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A graceful figure surrounded by golden radiance—Aurelia.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked at him with a calm, gentle smile, as if she had been waiting for this moment for ages.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her voice, soft yet resonant, echoed directly in his consciousness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Crossbridge... if you are willing to walk the same path as us, you are welcome to join our ranks.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Daniel’s pupils contracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Aurelia is inviting me?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For a brief moment, surprise flickered across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, slowly, his expression turned solemn. He exhaled and shook his head lightly, dispelling the illusion and all distracting thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No—he couldn’t decide impulsively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he now possessed the Time Stream, which allowed him to test different routes and timelines, he understood one unchanging truth:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end, he could only make one true choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And no matter what path he chose, regret would inevitably follow—just as it had ten thousand years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scene shifted once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the Lava Sea Ruins, Daniel’s figure plunged into the molten inferno.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he entered, waves of blistering heat enveloped him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The intense temperature was beyond the endurance of any mortal creature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his current Demigod-level physique, Daniel could feel the pain biting at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every second, his HP dropped by several million points.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Within this deadly environment, no ordinary being could hope to survive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet for Daniel, it was little more than an inconvenience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he descended deeper into the sea of magma, he soon located the presence he sought—Dean.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean’s body was still sinking steadily, drawn downward by invisible gravity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without hesitation, Daniel extended his hand, and a pulse of temporal light flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean’s unconscious form vanished instantly—absorbed into the Corridor of Time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dean’s consciousness had long since been extinguished, leaving only his body behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That made the process easy—he couldn’t resist even if he wanted to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Killing him outright would have been wasteful. Daniel had plans—Dean might still prove useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, Dean likely possessed crucial knowledge about the Elder God System. Information that Daniel desperately needed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, in the Backworld,Milla’s power had already reached the level of a Fake God.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With this newfound strength, the range of her teleportation gates had expanded dramatically—by at least a hundredfold compared to before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Daniel, who lacked wide-area teleportation abilities, this was a timely solution to a persistent problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His Flashback skill was potent, but its limitation was obvious: it could only transport him to locations he had already visited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfamiliar regions remained inaccessible, forcing him to travel manually through space—no matter how fast he flew, the distances of the Backworld made it inefficient.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Daniel once again enlisted Milla’s aid. Together, they set out to explore the vast unknown reaches of the Backworld.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To Milla, their journey lasted only half an hour. But for Daniel—whose mastery of time allowed him to experience countless iterations within those minutes—it was far, far longer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time their survey was complete, they returned to the City of Luck.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as they did—another Fake God’s corpse came crashing down from the skies above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The titanic body struck the ground with a deafening impact that shook the entire city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one could have imagined that one day, the City of Luck—once the brightest symbol of divine fortune—would become the graveyard of Fake Gods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing atop the city walls, Kate watched the falling corpse, his expression grim and heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A ripple in the air beside him, and Milla appeared, her presence accompanied by a faint shimmer of divine energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kate,\" she asked, \"how many Fake Gods has Lord Daniel slain so far?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kate’s gaze remained fixed on the horizon as he replied quietly,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The thirteenth.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milla froze for a second. Then her lips twitched—once, twice—as if suppressing the urge to curse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thirteenth...?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her thoughts spun in disbelief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Daniel’s strength has grown truly monstrous. He’s still technically only Demigod-level—yet he’s killing Fake Gods in bulk?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those of the Elder God line might be the weakest among their kind, but they were still tiered beings far beyond mortals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each one represented the fusion of godlike essence and ancient madness—monsters born of chaos and forgotten faith.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And yet Daniel dispatched them as if they were nothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first kill had been barely half an hour ago. Half an hour—and thirteen Fake Gods had fallen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And within that same timeframe, she had been traveling with him—watching him warp through time and space as easily as breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milla sighed in a mix of awe and envy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That clone ability of his... truly unfair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her gaze drifted toward Daniel’s distant silhouette, her expression half admiring, half resentful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why must such an incredible skill be a unique ability? If it were a general one, I’d sell everything I own just to trade for it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She shook her head and looked back at Kate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You told me before that the Fake Gods of the Backworld were supposed to be strong, didn’t you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kate nodded slowly, still staring at the crimson horizon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then why—why have thirteen of them fallen in less than half an hour?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Milla frowned, as if something didn’t add up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But she was wrong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because if one counted Gulis, the Stone Turtle Elder, the true number of Fake Gods Daniel had slain was not thirteen—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was fourteen.\u003C\u002Fp>",1448,"2026-06-06T00:12:00.792Z",1,"novelbin.me","99c7b05555c60f8e58d53117fdbcd9159dd3a13144c09f7923284a74292d1eba","reborn-with-infinity-skill-points-i-enslaved-all-chapter-437","reborn-with-infinity-skill-points-i-enslaved-all-chapter-435",650,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Freborn-with-infinity-skill-points-i-enslaved-all-cover.jpg"]
