Chapter 879: [Nothingness] Has No Subordinate Gods, and Neither She Nor I Have Ever Had Messengers

【Nothingness】 Has No Subordinate Gods, and Neither She Nor I Have Ever Had Messengers

Those cold eyes suddenly turned profound for a moment, and then the star points in Her eyes flickered slowly, the spirals rotating sluggishly:

"If this is what you wish to ask, I can grant you an answer.

【Nothingness】 has no subordinate gods, and neither She nor I have ever had messengers."

"Never had messengers..." A sharp glint flashed in Cheng Shi's eyes. He felt he was about to grasp the point, but he still asked one more steadying question. "Are you sure?"

"Are you questioning the essence of 【Nothingness】, or are you questioning the authority of 【Fate】?"

A bone-chilling cold wind suddenly seeped into the void. Cheng Shi shivered in fright and hurriedly shook his head.

"No, no, Patron, there was a problem with how I expressed myself. I meant, is it possible that 【Deception】... has messengers, but She used Her authority to hide them from you?"

"Impossible!" 【Fate】's denial was categorical.

To be honest, Cheng Shi's questioning, regardless of his intentions, already counted as blasphemy to Her face; he was even profaning the master of the current era to Her face.

But fortunately, this master was exceptionally tolerant toward him. She not only forgave the believer's blasphemy but also emotionlessly explained to Her believer the difference between the appearance and essence of 【Nothingness】.

"Appearances can deceive everyone, but they cannot blind the essence.

I understand Him, and I understand 【Nothingness】 even better. Even if 【Nothingness】 had true subordinate gods, even if He had a follower with status, that person would never be the Whispering Tide you speak of..."

Having said this, those eyes looked at Cheng Shi without joy or sorrow, then coldly shifted Her gaze away.

"He was indeed His first believer, but he made the wrong choice. When he could have obtained His recognition, he went astray and missed the glory he should have had.

I saw them gathering toward you; they probably realized where the problem lay and found the right path again, but it was too late. And this so-called 'right' path is nothing but a facade He created for the universe."

"Then what is it that you wish to create?" Cheng Shi frowned, digesting these incomprehensible riddles while constantly comforting Brother Mouth in his heart, praying it wouldn't refute anything for him at this critical moment, and then suddenly blurted out this question.

"?" Those cold eyes froze slightly, looking at the courageous believer, and snorted coldly. "Your questions today are very bold."

Cheng Shi hurriedly lowered his head and said devoutly:

"It is your tolerance that has indulged my courage.

Patron, I have already learned many things about 【Him】, and I know that your so-called 'fixed' path is related to that 【Him】. There is a doubt buried deep in my heart for a long time, and I shouldn't have asked it at this moment...

But I believe the choice you gave me is very important and critical, so to ensure that the choice I make is sufficiently cautious, I must have a deeper understanding of this doubt, so as to ensure that the 'fixed' path under the gaze of 【Fate】 is not mixed with the randomness of 【Deception】.

I wish to exchange my devotion for an answer..."

As soon as Cheng Shi's voice fell, the entire void could no longer suppress the boiling psychedelic mist, steaming with the appreciation of a certain 【Nothingness】.

The first half of this statement undoubtedly received 【Fate】's extreme affirmation. The 'fixed' path walking on the fixed road as always made those eyes very happy, so the coldness in Her eyes faded slightly, and She said concisely again:

"Speak."

"Then please forgive my presumption, Patron.

From my humble mortal perspective, the 【Faith Game】 is a faith pasture bestowed by the gods, where the devotion of the world's people can grow wildly.

And the Ladder of Audience is even more of a pilgrimage ladder for people to reach the throne of faith. That path to godhood... may I understand it as the ultimate goal of this game, the final... 'offering' created by the gods for 【Him】?"

This time, Cheng Shi really showed his cards. For the first time, he spoke bluntly about 【Him】 in front of his Patron, and even mentioned the "conspiracy" of the gods.

This wasn't because having the container gave him confidence, but because he suddenly felt that 【Fate】, having undergone some changes, had become more convinced of the so-called 'fixed' path, even having a kind of persistence and certainty that didn't care about details.

This change gave Cheng Shi an opportunity to try to uncover the secrets of the gods and the 【Alliance】, so he asked, gritting his teeth and squeezing out the last two words from his throat.

【Fate】, who had still had some appreciation, saw Her eyes return to coldness upon hearing the last two words. She stared straight at Cheng Shi, Her tone like the cold wind of an abyss.

"Is that what you think?"

"This does not depend on me, Patron; it depends on you... and the gods."

After saying this, Cheng Shi hadn't heard the Patron's response, but Brother Mouth responded in his heart first.

"·Sigh... I don't want you to die at all, but you really want me to die..."

Hearing this, Cheng Shi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized he had completely crossed the line.

But fortunately, the pair of eyes before him only stared coldly at Cheng Shi for a moment, without taking any action. Then, She shifted Her gaze, looking into the distant nothingness with profound eyes.

"Faith has nothing to do with sacrifice; offering is also devotion.

Approaching 【Him】 is approaching the essence of the universe; this is not a wrong path, but luck."

"..."

Cheng Shi was stunned.

Although 【Fate】's words were filled with devotion, he still heard the absurd truth in this terrifying devotion.

His guess was entirely correct; the gods were using this game to create an "offering" that could please 【Origin】!

The good news was that the first on the path to godhood was Wei Mu; even if he were to be made into an "offering," this behind-the-scenes puppeteer would have to take the lead, and his own score was still a hundred and eight thousand miles away from the so-called peak.

But the bad news was... these two ancestors of 【Nothingness】 seemed to have different views on the so-called "offering." The way they chose "offerings" probably wasn't some lousy score.

As for which lucky person they had their eyes on...

Tsk, it's really hard to guess.

Cheng Shi's face turned pale instantly. Hopefully, this so-called "offering" wasn't the kind of offering he thought it was, and even if it was...

【Deception】 was easier to talk about; as a member of the Fear Sect, His attitude toward 【Origin】 was more like wanting to destroy this ridiculous "sacrifice." As for whether the "offering" could survive when this farce ended, it would depend on whether He was in the mood to leave a backup plan for the "offering."

But 【Fate】...

Cheng Shi could see it; the so-called 'fixed' path meant that when he was tied to that sacrificial pillar, the one who personally lit the fire would definitely be this "cold" Patron before his eyes!

Her protection might not be for anything else, but precisely to complete that 'fixed' "sacrifice" to 【Origin】!

Of course, She wouldn't think She was cold; She would only think that She had pushed Her believer closer to the greatest 【Origin】 of the universe!

This believer should even... be grateful.

Suddenly, an inexplicable fear rose in Cheng Shi's heart. He didn't dare to look at those eyes before him anymore, but instead wondered why the Patron of the Fear Sect hadn't come to save him yet.

But he didn't look at 【Fate】, yet 【Fate】 kept looking at him. She understood the essence of the universe and naturally knew what Cheng Shi was thinking, so She stared at Cheng Shi and said without joy or sorrow:

"I understand His rebellion, but the essence of this rebellion is not an interpretation of His own will, but a seasoning for the boredom of the past era by 【Him】.

Everything begins with 【Origin】, and everything ends with 【Nothingness】. Even if He took away the authority of change in my hands, since the 'fixed' path is in my hands, nothing will change.

Cheng Shi, facing 【Him】, you should not feel fear, but embrace greed.

Because that will be the universe's closest opportunity to 【Him】."

Sure enough, I still have to be grateful.

Heh, I'll be grateful to your M...

At this moment, the Whispering Tide used all its strength to stop Cheng Shi's suicidal behavior, but it could control Cheng Shi's mouth, yet it couldn't control Cheng Shi's heart.

I've finally seen it clearly; 【Nothingness】 has never been of one mind. Fate, you really are an XX!

From beginning to end, it has never changed! ===== CHAPTER 880 =====
