This time, in search of the Earth Godhead, we had naturally reported to the Death God System and received considerable support.
The Death God system strongly supported this and provided a lot of assistance, including the corresponding authority to mobilize 'Death God Power'.
This is normal; the earth and death are inherently connected.
To be precise, both the Earth Element and the Earth Godhood are extremely close to 'Source Matter', and the greatest end now is that all things must return to Source Matter.
Under this connection, the Death Goddess believes that if they can obtain the Earth Godhood, then a major problem of the Death Goddess will be solved.
Therefore, interfering with the Earth Godhood is considered an important matter by the Death Goddess.
The Earth Serpent is precisely an excellent target for support.
As a mythical species with both Earth and End elements, he is extremely compatible with the goals of the Death God system.
This time, however, because the Earth Godhood involved Nemus, and because the powerful divine forces that were gradually being unleashed due to the stabilization of the deflection state began to have more ideas.
This time, the Earth Godhood is an opportunity for testing and confrontation.
Besides, the other mythological species, as well as many others that have yet to appear, all have the support of gods or even pantheons to varying degrees.
For example, the scaled people, whose true form is unknown, are only known to be mythical beings with both life and earth elements, and are probably children conceived by the god of life in its early stages.
When the Earth God died, he made a move, attempting to draw upon the Earth God's divine essence through some kind of ritual.
It was only because of the interference of calamities that it failed.
As for the smiling and crying faces, they are beings from the conceptual pantheon, a special mythological species that has emerged in recent years—the twins of joy and sorrow.
Judging from their actions, their lineage is more related to concepts and ideas, but it's unclear why they would attempt to seize the title of Earth God.
However, this is not surprising.
It is extremely difficult for mythological beings to encounter a deity that resonates with them.
Even if they don't fit together, mythical beings generally use the divine essence directly when they encounter it.
In fact, most of those ancient and weakened divine powers are such deities.
They used a divine status that was incompatible with themselves, and their understanding of the rules of divine status was extremely superficial, even riddled with errors.
Therefore, it was virtually impossible for them to improve their theoretical level, and their refinement of divine power was extremely slow.
Most importantly, if the theory is wrong, the output of divine power cannot be increased no matter what.
This kind of deity has no future, but even if it has no future, it's still a deity.
Under the same numerical values, the various characteristics possessed by gods, as well as the quality of their divine power, can completely overwhelm mythical species.
Furthermore, in the material plane, mythical beings must suppress their own power. In this situation, mythical beings are actually sitting at the same table as saints.
Therefore, the situation of the mythical species is also very frustrating.
Neither up nor down.
There are gods above suppressing them; one wrong move and you could be captured and made a pet.
Below, various insane evil gods and demons are staring at them.
Staying in the material plane makes it easy to be killed by one's own power, while staying in outer planes such as the astral plane makes it easy to be captured by gods.
He was neither treated well nor by anyone, and his life was extremely miserable.
Therefore, they would never give up on even the weakest of the gods.
The movements of the Earth Serpent disturbed the aura of the end times here, and the arrangements of the Earth God were finally beginning to be revealed.
The Scaled Man stopped watching and instead drew a sword, revealing his true form.
As he gripped the sword, the life and energy around him seemed to instantly connect with him.
Sword of Fortune - Earth Lizard!
The ground rippled and then finally broke open a corner, revealing the cathedral.
Then a mysterious phantom image pierced through the space and entered.
A streak of light flashed in the distant sky, entering the special field that had been revealed.
As the saying goes, "One generation plants the trees, another enjoys the shade." The portal opened by the Earthly Python and the Scaled Man was only partially opened by the two of them before two mythical creatures, who had been lying in ambush, rushed in.
However, upon seeing this scene, the Earth Serpent and the Scaled Man were not in a hurry, and they did not even rush into the cathedral.
Instead, stand still and let the smiling and crying faces enter first.
Then, the scaled man and the Netherworld Python, who had transformed back into human form, were setting something up at the entrance while asking, "Is there anyone else who wants to come in?"
"If not, this door will be closed after we go in!"
Despite hearing this, there was still no movement around.
Seeing this, the Earth Serpent and he seemed to have finished setting things up, and then they entered the hidden area together.
Just as they had said, the door closed immediately after the two of them entered.
After waiting for a while, some people finally appeared.
Perhaps it is a saint, or perhaps it is a mythical being.
They exchanged a glance, then went their separate ways without saying a word.
Some are hiding somewhere, plotting their divine war, while others are setting up rituals to pray for the power of unknown beings.
In short, the already dangerous land instantly became even more dangerous.
These people did not intend to enter in search of the divine essence, but rather planned to lie in ambush outside.
In that case, even if the people inside manage to seize a divine title, they won't be able to ascend to godhood here anytime soon.
Not everyone is like Nemus, who has obtained a portion of the divine power in advance and has already established a complete understanding of the rules represented by the divine power, allowing them to directly access the rules and instantly become a god.
Even if others obtain godhood, they still need a period of adjustment before they can successfully ascend to godhood.
So their presence outside was naturally intended to intercept and kill them.
Various spatial barriers had already been set up around the area to prevent anyone else from escaping.
If anyone steps out, they will likely be surrounded and attacked, no matter who it is.
A major chaotic battle was unavoidable.
Meanwhile, inside the cathedral, Kru frowned, pondering what was going on with him.
He seemed to have reverted to being an extremely ordinary trainee pastor...
“No, I was originally an apprentice priest, a child of a demon…” Kru’s memories began to fluctuate.
His childhood experiences in the Discipline Church have been faithfully reproduced and brought to the present cathedral.
But then Kru noticed what appeared to be a wooden bird in a pile of debris not far away.
Chapter 852 Church Night
"I heard the church is getting new people again?" Kru was about to go and pick up the wooden bird when a voice suddenly caught his attention.
Several people from the church were seen talking nearby.
Kru found it intriguing; the church had a large staff, but only a few people were able to enter each year.
It is said that only special people can get in.
It's said that he was able to get in because his mother used some connections.
Although Kluth, who seemed to have not seen a stranger for a long time, was curious, he did not continue to follow along to watch the excitement.
As they pushed the holy water toward the front yard, they saw several unfamiliar-looking people not far away.
There are seven people in total.
These seven people each have their own unique characteristics.
However, each of them exudes an extraordinary aura, including a pair of twins.
The moment Kru saw these people, he felt a strange sense of unease, as if their arrival would be seriously detrimental to him.
However, Klu quickly put aside his inexplicable feelings and focused on his work.
Regardless, focus on doing your best first.
The seven people seemed to notice Kru's presence and quickly looked at him. Then, when they heard the priest speaking, their attention was drawn back to him.
Although Kru is still just an intern pastor, he will soon become a full pastor.
They were just new members of the church, not even interns.
Next, you will need to study the scriptures and doctrines of the Earth Church, and then practice meditation or breathing techniques.
After a few years, once the numbers have improved and you've become more familiar with the church, you can begin your formal internship.
Only after completing an internship and obtaining certification can one undergo the examination and become a formal clergy member.
It can be said that those who have joined the church now are at least a few years behind Klue.
After finishing his day's work, Kru entered from the front courtyard, walked into the side hall, and came to the cathedral's refectory, where he ate while contemplating his future.
Suddenly, Kru sensed something was very wrong.
My mind gradually went blank, and the food on my plate began to change.
Those yellow beans had now transformed into roaring 'yellow-skinned monsters'.
The vegetables next to them looked like large green snakes.
In front of the giant serpent, a mass of meat, vegetables, and beans mixed together, was the battlefield of blood.
There were still some bits of meat inside, which, in Kru's eyes, became the corpses of the enemy. At this moment, the huge 'Sky Fork' descended from the sky, stirring up the bits of meat.
Instinctively, the thought, "I must have another body!" appeared in Kru's mind.
From the rice bowl, a figure crawled out from the churned meat scraps; it was another Klu.
And so, that minced meat Kru began his conquest.
He first picked up a piece of vegetable fiber mixed in with the paste that hadn't been completely mashed, and used it as a spear, then stabbed it into the body of a bean-yellow-skinned demon.
A major battle was inevitable, but Meatball Kru was able to fight back and forth on the battlefield with his superb martial arts skills.
Gradually, the beans were defeated and ended up outside the rice plate, in Kru's stomach.
Those vegetable snakes were also defeated by Kru and eaten as well.
All that remained on the plate was that one piece of minced meat.
At this moment, the Heavenly Trident that had once 'resurrected' him has fallen again, aimed at him.
Meatball Kru resisted fiercely, but was eventually stabbed to death with a fork and sent into Kru's mouth.
Kru was taken aback; he seemed to have already finished eating.
only……
Kru put down his fork and wooden spoon, tidied up the cutlery, and seemed somewhat dazed.
The battles from before still seemed to echo in his mind.
He felt that it wasn't just a fantasy, but that such a thing really existed.
And if he were given a weapon right now, he would seem to be able to use the same techniques and experience he had gained in combat.
After shaking his head, Kru stood up and went back to his room.
The cathedral has a curfew.
After dinner, once the sun goes down, everyone must return to their rooms to rest and is not allowed to come out.
Kluge naturally didn't intend to break the rules and waste time.
However, as he walked past the storeroom, Klu suddenly remembered the wooden bird he had seen earlier that day, which had appeared out of nowhere.
Outside the window, the sun had already set, leaving only its last rays.
Klu wasted some time eating, and lost in thought, time was running out.
But at that moment, he still turned around and walked into the storage room, where he saw the wooden bird.
The moment Kru reached out and grabbed the wooden bird, he felt as if his mind had suddenly doubled in size, and a flood of knowledge had appeared.
